Chapter 65: Making Friends with a Local Tyrant
After talking about peace with Tang Yiqin, the two had a feeling of hating each other, and they talked happily.
Tang Yiqin didn't expect that in the deep mountains, there were such well-informed and far-sighted people. If this person is brought in, he must be a very powerful right-hand man, but the matter of buying people's hearts is urgent.
The stockade was full of men, women, and children, and when they saw the sudden stranger, they instantly developed a kind of hostility, which was probably a sense of self-protection for the territory!
What catches your eye is a house made of wood, the house is not big or small, for a family to live just right, located on the top of the hill a relatively flat tiger's mouth. It's as if the top of the whole mountain was slashed hard, its sharpness was cut off, and it was tamed by people.
"Everyone, stand down, Miss Tang, they have no malice. Uncle Bolt, please find a place for Miss Tang and them to live, they will stay in the mountains for one night. ”
The people on the stockade gradually dispersed, but the hostility did not subside much. Tang Yiqin found that there was no owner in the village, and Song Jiang obviously played a leading role.
Song Jiang led Tang Yiqin and the others into his room, a table, a few cushions, a curved bow, a few animal skins, and the most was a tall bamboo slip.
What entertained Tang Yiqin and them was dried hunting meat and not very fresh wild vegetables, and Song Jiang also saw the embarrassment, but this was the best food he could come up with at the moment.
"Miss Tang, don't mind, these are the only food we have left."
"Naturally not, the food will be delivered to Brother Song soon, and there should be no problem in surviving this winter!"
"More Tang girls to help, otherwise we don't know what to do."
"You also helped me, didn't you, I wonder if Brother Song's bamboo slips can be lent to me to see? I'm even curious. ”
"Absolutely."
The food on the table was really average, and they stopped to make up for food and play everywhere they went, and the food was not bad. Everyone ate some and left the table hastily, leaving Tang Yiqin and Tang Yuting to sit there and look at the bamboo slips.
Song Jiang was also called, afraid that he would discuss the matter.
""Warring States Policy, this book is good."
"Yes."
Tang Yiqin's sister and brother chatted with each other, as if the hot things they were talking about on the other side had nothing to do with them.
"Aren't you curious about what happened today?"
"I think you can handle it, are you stupid? If there is any danger in the future, just let me go, I can already protect you and my mother. ”
The expression of the tsundere brother is also extraordinary, no matter what, life and death must follow the truth of tsundere. Tang Yiqin still feels warm in his heart, and he has someone to protect him, isn't it?
"Song Jiang, who is that girl?"
"Uncles, don't be in a hurry. Miss Tang just wanted to cooperate with us, we helped her train the soldiers, and she gave us food. ”
"This is not appropriate, we will no longer be involved in the open and secret struggle of these forces, and I am afraid that we will be implicated again when the time comes."
"Even so, I don't think it's appropriate, I don't know who they are, and one day we were taken to the nest and still confused."
Almost no one supported Song Jiang's approach, and they could be regarded as having been isolated from the world for a long time, and they had lived a paradise here for generations, and if it weren't for natural disasters, they would continue to do so. This vicious battle seems to be more difficult to fight than Song Jiang imagined.
"If Miss Tang promises to keep our side safe, and can we get double the grain?"
As soon as Song Jiang's words came out, it caused a heated discussion among his uncles and uncles.
"Now it's not as good as it was then, if we don't look for some food, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive this cold winter. Forget about our old bones, but my grandson is still young! ”
"You can do it another way, so why take such a risk?"
"We are the descendants of soldiers, and we should do things above board, and I don't agree with this stealing, robbing, and killing."
When Song Jiang decided to take people to rob, they all discussed it, robbing the rich and helping the poor. Some uncles in the village were willing to agree, and with the right path, they naturally refused to do some more things like chickens and dogs.
After a long night of talking, without threatening the people in the village, they could temporarily promise Miss Tang's matter, and once things changed, they would not tolerate those people stepping into Hutou Village again.
For their conversation, Tang Yiqin naturally heard it clearly, if it was her, no matter how big the interests were, she would put the safety of the people around her first. On the contrary, some unscrupulous people will look terrible!
After the matter was negotiated, there was no need for Tang Yiqin to stay too long. The group continued to rush to the capital, goodbye to the past!
"Girl, this capital is big, you see this street is comparable to our yard. There is also this shop next to each other, and there are many things sold. ”
"Yes~ Mother, we will live here in the future, and I will take my mother to turn around these shops."
"Sister Tang, take me, I'll pay you. My mother gave me a lot of silver tickets, which was enough for us to buy a lot of things. ”
A local tyrant is a local tyrant, with a lot of money, and he is not afraid when he arrives in the capital. However, in order to avoid being slaughtered by this little white rabbit and crying without money, Tang Yiqin still decided to keep half of the silver money for her.
"Fu Doll, we will spend more money when we arrive in the capital, in order to have no money to spend in the future, I decided to buy a shop here, but there is not much silver taels, can you lend me some?"
"That's it! Sister Tang, you suddenly looked very serious, which startled me, I thought there was something big. I'll give you half of it, it's five thousand taels of silver tickets, and if it's not enough, ask me again. ”
Making friends with local tyrants is refreshing, and a few thousand taels of silver will be in hand in a word. This Lin Furong is also big-hearted, and it seems that she has to suffer some hardships in the capital.
Tang Yiqin asked Bai Zhi to lead people to take the lead before coming to Beijing, and Xie Jinming should have gotten the news. Tang Yiqin took people to the agreed place to meet, and saw Xie Jinming stupidly stretching his head and looking at it, he had been in Beijing for more than half a year, and he still hadn't changed his nature at all.
"Little Guizi, why don't you say your aunt hasn't arrived yet? Did you run into robbers on the way? ”
"Young master, be sober! Miss Tang's skills, the robber is not like chopping vegetables, who can stop her. ”
The young master of his family usually doesn't look particularly stupid, but when he arrives in front of Miss Tang, he is hopeless. It seems that I will have to get some medicine for the young master from Miss Tang in the future!
"You are poor, go over there and have a look."
Xiao Guizi was just about to turn around when he saw Tang Yiqin getting off the carriage, and the savior finally came.
"Young Master, Miss Tang has arrived~"
"Grandma, you're here, I've been waiting for all the flowers, but Grandma, why are you looking better, no worse than the official lady in the capital, and I want me to say that I can be ranked in the capital."
Xie Jianming followed his father back to the capital, Xie Shangquan was reinstated, and is now appointed to the post of Shangshu of the Ministry of Households, and then the people who visited Xie Mansion were also in the city, and even Xie Jinming's name was ranked in the middle of the capital's son-in-law.
