Chapter 899: Undead Ancestor (1)
According to the agreement, the right to use the long street this year was given to Luan Shuang, and Luan Shuang wanted to run this long street, and of the huge amount of money earned, 6,000 taels belonged to Liu Jia. And if she didn't earn six thousand taels, Liu Jia would give her to the emperor in exchange for a reward.
She was indeed so fooled by Luanshuang in the past, but in fact, if the East Window incident really happened, even if she handed over Luanshuang, it would be completely impossible to please the current regime.
Luan Shuang's life only meant to Luan Lu and the emperor, but it was of little use to the imperial court.
On the contrary, those ministers will definitely take a stand in order to belittle the merchant, and they will not let her eat good fruit openly and secretly.
In this way, how could she really profit from Luan Shuang?
After being silent for a long time, you spoke and sighed: "The boss thinks too much about her." ”
After the princess left the city, she became the shopkeeper. The border war is so busy, where does she have the leisure to take care of the shopkeeper's flying pigeon biography report? Isn't this street still being taken care of by Liu Jia? Liu Jia, a genuine businessman, didn't want his hard work to be ruined by Luanshuang's lack of skills. But she herself is also very busy, running at both ends in the south and north, and she has tired several more crow's feet in a year.
Liu Jia hesitated: "You mean you should let go and leave her alone?" ”
If you let go at this time, the early investment will be wasted, but it is not impossible to stop losses in time. If it weren't for the dispute between them on the border, she wouldn't be so entangled.
Yoyo shook his head and said, "He's a hero, not a good person, but it can be seen from the fact that he can kill Zhaoyou." If he really did anything for the throne, he would not let Princess Frost stay on the border with the royal army. This shows that they still have a lot of affection......"
Liu Jia muttered, "This is really the most exciting gamble. If you lose, you will lose everything, and I can't put all my wealth on her......"
Youyou respectfully offered a cup of warm tea and reminded: "Boss, there is still a lot of food hoarded in the granary of the city." ”
War money......
Liu Jia took the teacup and stroked her little white dog with a hand full of jeweled jade wrenches, falling into deep thought.
……
It's late autumn.
The late autumn in Biansai was as cold as the middle of winter, but it had not yet snowed.
Occasionally, you can see some sparse wild trees on the march. The leaves of the trees had fallen early, blown away by the wind, and the dry branches or animal bones could be seen at every stretch of the road. These are all blown together by strong winds, piled up on the ground a little higher, and make this part of the scenery common here.
It should have been noon, but the sky was still cloudy. The dirt was stained with moisture and froze stiff. The soldier stepped on the ground in metal armor, slightly slippery. They walked cautiously, and their steps became heavier.
They walked in the direction of the Northern Regions with tired faces, and in the midst of their protection, several men in sacrificial robes were chanting scriptures.
These priests are passing the spirits along the way.
No matter what sect or what kind of faith, there are always some ghosts and gods that make the people uneasy. This border has just experienced war, and it can even be said that the war has not subsided. This act of appeasing the spirits of the dead would give the believers a little more peace of mind, and the priests of both factions would receive more money for incense.
When war comes, no matter whose money is not easy to make. Not to mention the priests who had already lived a life of pure asceticism.
The priests recited the scriptures, but the protection was left to the soldiers. It was so cold that the soldiers shivered with cold, rubbing their hands all the way, and the metal armor on their wrists slammed together from time to time, making a thumping sound.
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
