Chapter 440: Will Food Fall from the Sky? (Reward plus more!) )
He stepped forward and slapped the guy on the head, and the man woke up in a daze, his eyes were still worried, and he smacked his tongue as if he was still reminiscing about the dream just now: "Hey, little beauty, why are you still beating people......"
It wasn't until he was beaten again that his head gradually sobered up, and he glanced left and right, and saw his companion who was glaring at him angrily next to him, and then he paused: "I...... Am I asleep? ”
"Something that doesn't make a difference! If you let the thieves break in and steal the treasure, see how you explain it to the young lady! ”
As he spoke, the guard inadvertently glanced up, but found that the carriages seemed to be a little different from yesterday's.
Because only two of these wagons were used for treasure, and the back ones were vacant for transporting grain. In the state of not buying food, most of them are covered with a layer of white cloth, showing an empty and shriveled state. But now it seems that it is bulging from the inside, as if it is full of goods!
"Something is wrong!"
The two of them glanced at each other, and they both sensed some strange meanings, and they couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in their hearts.
Did something terrible really happen last night?
Then the two of them walked over cautiously, and quietly picked up the layer of white cloth covered with a wooden stick, and the next moment what was displayed in front of the two of them instantly made the two stunned, so shocked that they couldn't even hold the wooden stick in their hands steadily, and fell to the ground with a "snap", but they couldn't control it......
"This ...... It's ......"
"Food...... It's all food! ”
After the two of them were stunned in place for a long time, they saw that their eyes were a little sour without blinking, and they came back to their senses a little, and rubbed their eyes in unison, convinced that the scene in front of them was definitely not a dream, Fang Cai's facial expression began to get out of control, and he rushed back to the inn with a shout, attracting everyone's attention.
"What's the matter, it's so early in the morning?" Someone asked in confusion
"Food!" The two men shouted, pointing in the direction of the backyard carriage.
"Grain?" The people were bewildered and did not understand what they meant.
The two of them gasped twice, and then shouted with a red face: "Go and see, the carriage is full of grain!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone reacted, and the first thought was that these two people were playing tricks on them, after all, the carriage was still empty the night before, and the grain purchased from Qingyang City was only a little more than one carriage at most, how could it be filled after only one night?
Could it be that food will really fall from the sky?
However, when they saw the two of them shouting, it really didn't look like they were lying, and they couldn't help but be a little suspicious, so they went to the backyard to check.
However, at this glance, everyone was stunned, the golden thing in the early morning sun was not the heavy ears of rice?!
At a glance, these ten carriages specially used to pull goods were all full of grain! Even the two wagons used to carry the goods, which were now gone, were also filled with grain.
"This ...... How is this possible?! ”
This scene had completely exceeded their expectations, and at this time, they were all looking at each other, looking like they didn't know how to speak.
They suddenly remembered what Miss Wen had said to them yesterday. At the time, I thought that the other party was just delaying time to fool them, but now it seems that it is all true?!
After one night, all the wagons were full of grain, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it was a good harvest!
It turns out that food can really fall from the sky!
At that moment, there were excited people who went to report the ice smoke, and sure enough, they found that Miss Wen's face did not change at all when she saw this scene that should have been very magical and shocked, as if she had expected it early, and there was only a faint smile on her face: "It's great to be able to buy so much food." ”
Everyone couldn't help but marvel at the magic of Miss's methods, but they were also even more curious: "Miss Wen, I wonder if you can ask, why can you buy so much food in just one night?" ”
It's beyond their imagination.
Wen Bingyan thought for a while, and said the excuse he had already considered: "Actually, these grains were sold to me by the proprietress." ”
Yes, under the guise of the proprietress as a pretense.
In her description, the proprietress knew a large landowner who had a good harvest the previous year and had a lot of surplus grain in her hands, and when she saw that she was bidding well, she agreed to sell the grain to her.
This explanation was reasonable, although there were still some doubts as to why all the carriages were filled overnight without any sound and without alarming anyone, but it was a good result, and they did not think much of it.
Maybe they slept too hard last night.
At the same time, they only understood the intention of Miss Wen and the proprietress chatting all day. It turned out that I wanted to take the opportunity to meet the big landlord!
The only people who have some doubts are the locals who know a little about this place, and in his perception there doesn't seem to be a big landlord here who can provide so much food at once. But I didn't care much when I saw so much food in a blink of an eye, these grains couldn't be fake, and the young lady couldn't have conjured it out of thin air, it must have been just a shallow knowledge.
And the few people who resigned yesterday couldn't help but come forward to confess in shame at this moment, they didn't expect Miss Wen to have other far-sighted concerns, but they were too impatient and short-sighted, but they almost ruined Miss's good deeds.
Wen Bingyan naturally didn't blame them, but smiled slightly: "I don't blame you, you were also kind yesterday, for the sake of those victims, be a chivalrous warrior!" However, I did not explain this matter in advance, but instead added misunderstanding to you, which is my fault. ”
When those people saw her so generous, they couldn't help but feel even more emotional.
After a while, someone suggested that since the grain had been bought now, it was better to leave for Peishan earlier, but Wen Bingyan shook his head again and said, "Wait a while, you still need to wait for a few people." ”
This time, everyone didn't dare to have any more doubts, and they all waited patiently.
By noon, a new figure had finally arrived at the door of the inn, which had been only them.
It was Qing Dai and Bai Yu who hurried over after being ordered by the Dragon King.
Bai Yu didn't bring his younger siblings this time for safety, and he could be regarded as traveling lightly.
Most of these guards came out of Qingyang City, and some people vaguely recognized these two girls, especially Qingdai, who was in charge of treatment, was very impressed, and couldn't help but be a little surprised to see them appear this time.
The people have arrived, so the next time is to set off and go back.
As for Ye Hancheng and Daoist Tian, they didn't rush here because of the distance, but waited for them to take them with them when they were on the way back.
