Chapter 206: Mao Sui recommended himself

Mu Tianyue pondered in his heart, a strange light crossed his deep eyes, it seemed that he had an idea in his heart, but he didn't know if this idea could be implemented smoothly.

"So what are you waiting for? Don't hurry up and send the food over. ”

Qian Qianqian couldn't help but get excited, somehow, as long as things related to Xiao Mohan, she always couldn't control herself.

"The mountain bandits have not been exterminated, if this batch of grain is reported to the imperial court, after layers of transmission and deduction, it will not be possible to reach the frontier in three or five months, but if it is not reported to the imperial court, we are afraid that there is no suitable person to escort the grain."

Zhou Lin's expression was solemn, that group of mountain bandits could rob the grain from the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, and the power must be extraordinary, and it would be difficult to keep the food with just a few of them.

"I'll go." Qian Qianqian's words were categorical, and her eyes were full of certainty.

Zhou Lin and Mu Tianyue looked at each other, their faces were surprised, so many officers and soldiers couldn't stop that group of mountain bandits, just with Qian Qianqian, such a little woman, how could she protect the food?

"Miss Qian, don't be kidding, this is not a trivial matter to transport food, how can you be competent?"

Zhou Lin's expression softened a little, and he glanced at Qian Qianqian, with a little doubt in his eyes.

"Lord Zhou, people can't look good, you are also General Xiao's person, how can you still be so prejudiced against women?"

Qian Qianqian's face did not change, her eyes were full of indescribable stubbornness and perseverance, and there was a bit of heroism between her eyebrows, which was quite a bit of a woman's refusal to let her eyebrows go.

"It's not my prejudice, it's that you really can't deal with this matter, those mountain bandits are not easy to deal with."

Zhou Lin was very distressed, and he said it very sincerely, it seemed that he was really good for Qian Qianqian.

"Do you have any suitable candidates?" Qian Qianqian's words changed, and she no longer recommended herself, but changed to a rhetorical question.

"I led the troops to transport it personally, and there are many people in the state city, if we encounter mountain bandits, we will desperately protect the grain, and try to transport the grain without loss."

Zhou Lin thought for a moment, and looked at it without full confidence, it seemed that those mountain bandits were indeed fearful, but Qian Qianqian didn't think it was a good idea.

"There are still central state details in Lianzhou City, General Xiao led his troops to fight again, and now there is no news, if those details are making trouble behind their backs, and there is no one in Lianzhou City, what should I do?"

Qian Qianqian asked lightly, although her tone was gentle and there was no superfluous look on her face, her eyes were extremely scorching.

"Boss Qian is right, the central government of Qianjia Village has not been completely found out, if you personally escort the grain to the frontier, if someone takes the opportunity to make trouble, it will be a big deal."

Mu Tianyue also nodded one after another, although the border war is important, but even the state city cannot be put down, if Zhou Lin leaves, there will be no officials in this state who can take charge alone.

"Boss Mu is a businessman, and he still needs to handle the rice and grain dispatch in Lianzhou, so looking at it, I am the best candidate."

Qian Qianqian said very firmly, with a light smile on her face, the grain transported from Jiangnan has not yet arrived in Lianzhou, Mu Tianyue is the most prestigious businessman in Lianzhou, so he must not leave.

"In that case, we have no choice." Mu Tianyue pursed her lips and smiled lightly, and glanced at Zhou Lin, her expression a little subtle.

"Miss Qian, I will dispatch the elite soldiers and horses in this Lianzhou city to go with you, if you encounter any danger on the way, you will abandon the food and flee for your life, don't disregard your own safety for the sake of food."

Zhou Lin instructed lightly, it seems that he agreed, and about the person who sent the grain, Qian Qianqian also had other candidates in his heart.

"Ling Zi'an, the leader of the Cao Gang, is not weak in martial arts, he is a smart person, and Shangguan Ling is also a usable talent, I want them to come with me."

Qian Qianqian raised her eyes suddenly, and there was a hint of cunning between her delicate eyebrows, transporting food is an important errand, and she must also use the most reliable person.

"The girl's idea is good, Shangguan Ling is easy to do, but Ling Zi'an is not an official of the imperial court, and he is arrogant, so it may be a little difficult for him to serve the imperial court."

Zhou Lin was still worried, although since Ling Zi'an took charge of the Cao Gang, the Cao Gang had a lot of duties, but this did not mean that Ling Zi'an had the heart to do things for the imperial court.

"It's okay, I have this certainty to convince him, you prepare food as soon as possible, and when I have everything settled, I will set off."

Qian Qianqian said very easily, her eyes were clear, she stood up suddenly, and was about to leave.

Mu Tianyue looked at Qian Qianqian's movements, her thin lips opened slightly, and she seemed to have something to say, but just as Qian Qianqian lowered her eyes, he seemed to swallow the words that came to his mouth.

"Boss Mu, do you have anything else?" Qian Qianqian saw that something was wrong with Mu Tianyue, so she asked suspiciously.

"It's nothing, if you want to go to the Cao Gang to find Ling Zi'an, I'll go with you."

Mu Tianyue bowed slightly, as if she was deliberately hiding something, and as soon as her words changed, her expression became friendly.

"Well, that's exactly what I wanted." Qian Qianqian didn't think much about it, agreed in one bite, and went straight home.

This time, she has to transport food to the frontier, and she probably won't be able to come back in three or five months, all the money in this family must be settled in advance, and there is also a hot pot restaurant, if she is not there for a long time, Tongbo alone should not be able to take care of it.

Qian's mother taught Qian Yao to count in the room, Qian Xuan and Qian Hui were both playing in the yard, only Qian Fen was carrying water to water the garden, and the coarse cloth skirt was stained with a lot of mud.

"Xiaofen, come and rest." Qian Qianqian stood at the door, looked at Qian Fen, and pretended to call casually.

Qian Fen put down the wooden bucket in his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead, strode over, and entered the room with Qian Qianqian.

"Xiaofen, I have to go out in a few days, maybe as little as March and May, or as much as half a year, and I will come back, and when I leave, everything in this family will depend on you."

Qian Qianqian held Qian Fen's hand, her eyebrows twisted into a dead knot, and her expression was extremely solemn, which made Qian Fen feel inexplicably afraid.

"Sister, where are you going? Why do you want to go for so long? Qian Fen was confused, their family had been living a peaceful life in this town, I don't know why Qian Qianqian left suddenly?

"Now that business is not doing well, I plan to go out and have a look, and learn from those businessmen outside to see if we can bring our business back to life."

Qian Qianqian made up an excuse, Qian Fen's sisters and brothers are still children, if they knew that she was going to the frontier, they would definitely be scared, so they had to hide this matter from them.

"Is the eldest sister going out to study?" Qian Fenti's eyes slipped, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly, revealing a little doubt.

"Study tours? Let's just say that. Qian Qianqian heard this word, and immediately nodded, in this era, the word "study tour" is commonly used in those who read, Qian Fen doesn't understand much, so she only feels on her head.

"That's good, it's just that the eldest sister, you are a woman outside, it is inevitable that there will be many inconveniences, now our family is not short of food, or stay at home and live a good life."

Although Qian Fen was not suspicious, she was still a little reluctant, if Qian Qianqian left, there would be no backbone in this family, and they still felt scared when they thought about it.

"Our family is indeed not worried about running out of food, but Xiaohui is going to school, Brother Yao has grown up, and there are many places to use money in the future, so we have to plan early, we can't be caught off guard when the time comes, Xiaofen, you have grown up, you should learn to be the director of the house and take charge alone."

Qian Qianqian lowered her voice, but a few words suppressed Qian Fen, Qian Fen's mood was a little lower, and she couldn't help but hang her head.

"Eldest sister, you have been fortunate in the past few years, don't worry, I will take care of this family for you."

After a while, Qian Fen slowly spoke, and her palm-sized face showed a bit of tenacity, but it was becoming more and more similar to Qian Qianqian.

"This is a little silver, you take it, after I leave, you have to use this money to take care of family affairs, if the money is not enough, go to Tianyue Restaurant to find Boss Mu, saying that it is my own sister, he will naturally give you silver, but you must remember, don't let this silver fall into the hands of your mother."

Qian Qianqian took out a money bag from her sleeve, she calculated carefully, if there is no accident, the money should be enough, but if there is any disease or disaster in the family, the silver is estimated to be not enough.

"I remember, eldest sister, don't worry, I will do what you say."

Qian Fen nodded, put away the silver, Qian Qianqian gave her a look, and she turned around and went out.

Qian Qianqian cleaned up in the house, and originally wanted to bring a few clothes that she usually wears, but she thought of escorting the food to the frontier, so she put those clothes away again.

The soldiers on the frontier, as well as the officers and soldiers who escorted the food, should all be men, and if she was mixed in women's clothes, she would definitely cause a lot of trouble, so she couldn't wear women's clothes, she had to dress up as men, so that those who didn't know would see it.

Considering this, Qian Qianqian went to the ready-to-wear shop and bought a few men's clothes that had been made in the shop, but most of those men's clothes were wide, and she had made the tailor smaller, and it still didn't fit too well on her body.

"Girl, you are born with beautiful eyebrows and exquisite figures, why do you want to buy these men's clothes?"

The shopkeeper felt a little strange, looked at Qian Qianqian in the mirror, and tidied up the clothes on her body for her.

"I naturally have my intentions, I want all these clothes, help me wrap them up." Qian Qianqian glanced at the clothes on the table and said lightly.

"Yes." The shopkeeper retreated, tidied up all the clothes for Qianqian, Qian Qianqian changed into her own clothes, paid the silver, and took the clothes away.

Although these clothes are still bigger, they are not too abrupt, but they can make Qian Qianqian petite.

After buying clothes, Qian Qianqian also went to a blacksmith shop not far away to buy a long sword and wore it on her body, although she was not skilled in using it, but it could also make her closer to the man, and she could also have something to deter when she encountered mountain bandits.

After preparing all this, Qian Qianqian went to the Cao Gang with Mu Tianyue and found Ling Zi'an.

When he first heard about this, Ling Zi'an was very surprised, and he didn't seem very willing, Qian Qianqian had been waiting for his reply, but he didn't say anything for a long time.
