Chapter 37: The ship's matter is settled

Although the current life of the people of Dachu is still difficult, this hardship will no longer disrupt the order.

With the strong support of the government, they have begun to move forward again towards the beautiful goal of living and working in peace and contentment.

Once people have hope and hope, they will naturally no longer be desperate to do things that are almost indistinguishable from seeking death.

Coupled with the control of officials and the suppression of soldiers, the order of today's northwest territory is simply refreshing.

He Shuning and the others have hit Yuxu Mountain, and they have not delayed the trip to the top of the store.

The four of them didn't have much money on them, and the expenses for their food and lodging were basically exchanged for all kinds of wild things they hunted.

With the skills of four people, hares, pheasants and the like can catch a bunch of them casually, wild sheep, wild boars, wild wolves, snakes, roe deer, badgers, roe deer and other medium and large wild animals, as long as they encounter them, they can basically be caught.

So along the way, not only did they not waste time on seeking wealth, but they also ate well, slept soundly, and preserved their strength well.

After three days of traveling, a wide river in front of them blocked the way of the group of four.

Looking at the wide river and the dock where there was no shadow of the boat, Yan Nanxiao had a feeling that it was not easy to go out for the first time, and he asked Ji Yongan, "What should I do if I don't have a boat?" ”

"There must be boats, and the biggest problem right now is that we don't have the money. If you don't have money, you can't hire a boat, and you can't hire a veteran boater who has the courage to cross the river. Ji Yongan held the reins of the horse with his right hand and touched his chin with his left hand, "Senior sister, I want to go to the city." ”

Mu Qingyun bowed slightly, "I'll go with you, He Ba and Yan Er stayed to watch our horses." ”

He Shuning also wanted to talk to him - it was already noon, she was hungry, and she wanted to go into the city to eat.

Mu Qingyun didn't want to get in the way with this girl, she beckoned Yan Nanxiao, "He Ba will be handed over to you, get her some delicious food, and watch her don't run around." ”

Yan Nanxiao hurriedly brought the two meat buns he brought with him to He Shuning to eat, "Senior Sister He, you pad your stomach first, and I will roast a rabbit for you to eat immediately." ”

He Shuning's eyes lit up, Yan Nanxiao's skills were much better than those chefs in small restaurants, she swallowed her saliva, "Then I also want to grill fish, grilled chicken, grilled steamed bun slices and wild vegetable soup." ”

These are not difficult to do, and there is nothing Yan Nanxiao should not do.

As soon as Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan left, Yan Nanxiao was busy, and He Shuning sat beside the stream with a well-behaved face and munched on the meat bun.

Yan Nanxiao, who was already very skilled at catching fish, prepared the ingredients in a short time, he hunted two pheasants, two hares, and forked a dozen palm-sized stream fish with branches.

This fish doesn't look big, but it tastes better than river fish, and He Shuning has always loved it.

Yan Nanxiao took care of the ingredients first, and then lit a fire and began to grill fish and meat.

After the fish, chicken, and rabbit meat were all roasted, he dug up wild vegetables to make soup for He Shuning.

He Shuning very obediently left two rabbit legs, two chicken legs, and two whole chicken wings for Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan, and then left a rabbit leg, a chicken leg, and a whole chicken wing for Yan Nanxiao.

Yan Nanxiao saw her washing her hands from a distance, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but smile slightly.

After making an iron pot of wild vegetable soup, Yan Nanxiao took the steamed buns in the baggage and roasted them.

When He Shuning ate his mouth full of oil, he handed her the roasted steamed bun slices and wild vegetable soup, so that she could relieve the greasy and mix water to fill her by the way.

"I'm back." After eating happily, she squinted a little by the way, and at this time, He Shuning, who was biting the grass thorns and humming a little tune on Erlang's legs, was broken by the familiar footsteps The comfortable afternoon time, she stood up and looked in the direction where the footsteps came from.

"Senior sister~~~" The moment she saw Mu Qingyun's figure, the little girl waved her little paws and smiled into a spring flower.

Mu Qingyun touched her tender little face, "Is this a good meal?" ”

He Shuning nodded, "I also left it for you." ”

Mu Qingyun glanced at the meat that was wrapped in oil paper by Yan Nanxiao, "Yong'an and I have already eaten it in the city, so it's better to keep these for you as snacks." ”

He Shuning cheered, "Yan Er." ”

Yan Nanxiao looked helpless, "I know, I'll leave it all for you to eat." ”

After that, he turned his gaze to Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan, "Is the matter of the ship resolved?" ”

Ji Yongan threw Yan Nanxiao a bag of silver, "I have already told the boss of the ship that we will meet at this dock early tomorrow morning." ”

Yan Nan casually weighed the weight of the bag of silver in his hand, "Two hundred taels? So much! ”

Ji Yongan rubbed his sore wrist, "No way, the boss of the boat is not willing to gamble his life to send us across the river." ”

In today's world, if it weren't for the high price of two hundred taels they gave as soon as they came up, the fool would have risked his life at any time and accompanied them from Dachu to Da Zhou.

Yan Nanxiao was thoughtful, and he asked Ji Yongan, "You should not only use the method of giving more money, right?" ”

Ji Yongan bowed slightly, "Senior sister and I showed a hand, in addition, senior sister also promised to give them two hundred catties of meat tomorrow." ”

Although Great Chu has now returned to normal order, in the border area where the two armies are opposed, there is no doubt that the king of Chu will exercise wartime control over the town.

Extremely important but very scarce grain and grass materials, ordinary people can not buy as much as they want.

Coupled with the fact that prices are generally high now, the lives of ordinary people are actually very difficult.

In order to make themselves and their families as hungry as possible, these people living near the border have to dig out their hearts to collect money and hoard food.

The generous remuneration of two hundred taels of silver and two hundred catties of wild things given by Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan was enough for their families to eat for at least a year, plus they witnessed that Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan could use the extremely high force value of one hundred, and the ship boss who was approached by Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and decided to take the three brothers who had a lifelong friendship with him to do this vote.

After the two parties agreed on the time and place of meeting, the four people, including the boat boss, went back separately to settle down at home, while Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan went to buy some bits and pieces first, and then brought silver and packages to meet He Shuning and Yan Nanxiao.

"I went hunting with He Ba, Yong'an, you and Yan Er guarded the horses and silver." Since he agreed to pay the boat boss 200 catties of meat, Mu Qingyun of course had to prepare everything before dark.

Ji Yongan disagreed with her, "Let's let He Ba stay, now is not the time for her to get lost at will." ”

Mu Qingyun's gaze fell on Ji Yongan's right wrist, "I've been shaking the dice for a whole hour, your wrist is still sore now, right?" ”
