Chapter 302: Giving birth to borrowed soldiers

"The shopkeeper doesn't have to say that, how can this be blamed on your head?" Murong Lin came back to his senses and shook his head lightly, but the melancholy in his eyebrows still did not disperse.

"Originally, the place was located here, so that it was very prosperous, and it would make the store a lot of benefits. Besides, they are such people, and the soil workshop is also used to being noisy, and it can be corrected overnight. ”

"Even if we can change it, I'm afraid we may not be willing to give up their original temperament."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper nodded meaningfully, and pushed a pot of sugar-pickled osmanthus cake forward. "What the prince said is right, the grass people are really taught."

"The so-called easy to change, the nature is difficult to change, but it is indeed a problem, and we can't blame those 'business girls' who 'don't know the hatred of the country', 'after singing across the river, the court is flowering'."

The crisp sound of the plate hitting the wooden table also seemed to knock on Murong Lin's heart. Siben stood aside in a daze, and he didn't understand what the shopkeeper meant, but he was just curious that the words were so light and fluttering that Murong Lin fell into such a daze.

Murong Lin originally just had feelings, and he was anxious to comfort the shopkeeper, but he casually said a few nonsense, who would have thought that such a high argument from the shopkeeper would lead to him, but it made him understand a lot.

"The shopkeeper's modesty is still taught by me. I am young and vigorous, and I lack experience, and many times I need more guidance from your older generation. ”

The shopkeeper of this gold and silver money village was originally the bookkeeper beside Murong Yu, named Chao Cuo. In the army, he was in charge of the big and small affairs of life, and he also had a unique sensitivity to the amount of money, which was deeply valued by Murong Yu.

Later, because he followed Murong Yu to the battlefield to defend against bandits, he accidentally injured two ribs, and as he got older, the old injuries on Chao Cuo's ribs often made him toss and turn day and night, and he couldn't sleep well, but he still endured it.

It took about three months to reluctantly, and finally asked Murong Yu to find out. Although Murong Yu was reluctant to leave such a capable and heartfelt person as him, he couldn't bear to follow him for most of his life, and now that he was old, he still had to endure pain.

In the end, under the discussion of the two, Chao Cuo agreed to leave the barracks and came here to run the money bank. The bank has a lot of accounts, and it is very much in need of a careful and confidant person to take care of it. Thinking about running around here without working hard again, Murong Yu was relieved.

By chance, Murong Lin learned that the wrong shopkeeper here actually had such a past with his father, so when he was in distress in his heart, he often came over to find a few points of advice.

Chao Cuo lost his wife in old age and had no children under his knees, so he treated Murong Lin wholeheartedly, almost treating him as his own son. Murong Yu also had a heart, and privately asked Chao Cuo to recognize Murong Lin as his righteous son, but was rejected by Chao Cuo on the grounds of identity and status.

Murong Lin didn't know that Murong Yu had such thoughts, but he knew that his father valued Chao Cuo very much, and he also believed his words.

Even if Murong Lin often didn't set foot in Qianzhuang for ten days and half a month on weekdays, Chao Cuo could manage it in an extremely orderly manner, and held a clear account book for him to check at will.

"That's good to say, Xiao Er, bring my account book over and show it to the prince.

Chao Cuo nodded with a smile, and as soon as he said what he had commanded his henchman, Murong Lin waved his hand and stopped him.

"It's not busy, I came here today, mainly to ask the shopkeeper to do me a small favor. Also, what's the situation doing here? ”

"It's business as usual." Chao Cuo looked at the hesitant Xiao Si, nodded and asked him to retreat, turned his head to look at Murong Lin and asked. "What does the prince want the grass people to do?"

Murong Lin looked left and right, and his eyes instructed Siben to go out and hold the doorknob before he spoke leisurely.

"It's not for anything else, it's just that the shopkeeper has been here for so long, and there should be a few trustworthy people under him. I recently had a problem and wanted to ask the shopkeeper to borrow them to help out. ”

Along the way, in so many private properties of the royal mansion in the city, Murong Lin went to greet them one by one, and called a lot of good hands, and this gold and silver money village was his final destination.

In addition to making profits for the palace on weekdays, these places also take care of the task of taking care of the movements in the city, so each courtyard will have a group of capable helpers they have cultivated themselves.

"It's easy to borrow people, but the grass people don't understand why?" Chao Cuo responded, which made Murong Lin happy for a while, but when he wanted to ask the reason, Murong Lin couldn't help but hesitate.

"For the specific reason, please forgive the juniors for inconvenience, I came to these people to ask them to save someone's life."

Murong Lin gave such an ambiguous method after thinking about it, Chao Cuo pressed the teacup, sat behind the table, and looked at Murong Lin face to face, looked at it for a while, and lowered his eyes.

"Everyone is in the courtyard at the back, so whoever the prince likes will take it." In the final analysis, Murong Lin can be regarded as a person who has grown up watching Chao Cuo since he was a child, so he naturally knows what his heart is.

Even if Murong Lin didn't understand what he said, Chao Cuo had reason to believe that it wouldn't be something that would endanger the acquisition of the domain.

Hearing this, Murong Lin immediately rejoiced, stood up suddenly, and almost tripped over the stool behind him, he respectfully waved his hand at Chao Cuo, and the smile on his face could hardly be suppressed.

"Thank you for the shopkeeper's looseness, but then I will go, and I will naturally explain the situation to my father for the shopkeeper in the future, and I will not embarrass the shopkeeper."

How could Chao Cuo worry about not knowing how to explain to Murong Yu, he only cared about whether Murong Lin's safety was appropriate. He closed his mouth and bowed his head, and said to Murong Lin uneasily. "It's okay, be careful on the road."

It's a pity that Murong Lin walked too fast, and he had already gone downstairs before he could finish saying this.

Outside the West City Gate, because of the recent bad weather in the domain, there has been a shortage of water one after another, which has reduced the number of people coming and going here by more than half compared to normal days.

The thick dust covered the road that was rarely cleaned, and the mere breeze seemed to roll up a strong sandstorm.

But today, after a long time, no one has set foot at the gate of the city, and suddenly a convoy of cars entered, led by a particularly delicate and atmospheric carriage.

After the carriage, so many carts walked very lightly, which shows that the people who went out to do business had already sold out the goods before returning home.

"What people, get off the horse and accept it

Examine. "The guards at the city gates are almost all dispatched from the barracks, and the water sources on the outskirts can be easily found, so they are in good physical condition, and they can protect the people in the city, and they are in the position of guards here.

Anyone entering the city had to go through a check, and it was evident that the people in the carriage knew such a rule, and after saying hello, they took the initiative to get out of the carriage and instructed the people behind to open the empty cart.

When a group of busy servants walked by, they suddenly found that the one who got off the carriage was Gu Zeyuan, who had not met for many days.

Gu Zeyuan was choked by the dust near the wheels of the carriage and coughed, and after quickly covering his mouth and nose with his sleeve, he approached the idle guard next to him to talk.

"Brother, I want to ask you something, the city was obviously fine during the Chinese New Year, why did it become so lifeless after only two months, I was so scared that I thought I was in the wrong place."

"You just came back from outside?" The guard squinted and glanced at him, and after seeing Gu Zeyuan nodding very surely, he turned his eyes to see if there were any of his people coming to check on the Quartet.

After a slight glance, the guard put his right hand in front of his mouth and bit his ear quietly with Gu Zeyuan. "Then it's really not the right time for you to come back, it hasn't rained in the sky during this time, and the grain in the field is almost dry."

"We also have to thank the palace for proposing that everyone build a water cellar at home, so that the people in the city will not suffer heavy casualties. But if this continues, it is estimated that many people will fall in the city within a month. ”

"If you have this opportunity, put down your things, and go out again to avoid it, don't make so much money and want to come back to show off, but instead explain yourself here."

Although people who are officers and soldiers also like to see money, but in a critical moment, this guard is still more kind-hearted.

Gu Zeyuan thanked him with a smile, and then returned to the side of the carriage, but he was not in a hurry to go up, only pinched his chin with two fingers of his right hand, as if he was in deep thought.

"It's such a serious matter, why haven't I heard about it outside?" Gu Zeyuan thought, raised his head, and looked into the distance.

"The prince wants to block this news and prevent the court from taking advantage of it, it should have taken a lot of effort, it seems that I have to go and see him if I have time, and by the way, I will also ask how it is now."

As soon as he made up his mind, and the inspection behind him was over, Gu Zeyuan was about to step into the carriage and go, when he saw a mighty cross-line passing by at the intersection in front of him.

Gu Zeyuan thought that he had seen it wrong, rubbed his eyes, and ran forward a few more steps before he could be sure that it was Murong Lin who was the leader. It's just that the long line behind Murong Lin walked sideways, and it was separated from the gate for a long distance, so he didn't notice the movement under the city gate.

Seeing that she was in a hurry, as if she was busy with something, Gu Zeyuan stood still and did not shout, so as not to disturb him. And after Murong Lin walked over, he turned back in hindsight, but he didn't see anyone, he just thought about it too much, and then turned back again.

"Lord Shizi, is there something wrong?" is still the fourth book of a personal servant, and he can best detect any emotional changes in Murong Lin.
