Chapter 104: There is no silver horn here
"Sister Jiufeng, you can get out of the way for me." Gong Changyu waved his hand.
"No. Your injuries have not healed, and if you break into the old street like this, something will happen. Jiufeng stood there motionless, his face pale.
"Jiufeng, General Ben won't die so soon, why are you in a hurry?" Gong Changyu gently clasped Jiufeng's wrist with one hand.
"General, it's not a question of whether you die or not. The military advisor has specially explained, as soon as you meet Jiang Changyi and he asks you about Charlemagne's bones, you can't help but do it with him, so you must not go. Jiufeng pushed hard, and Gong Changyu couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"Jiufeng, your skills are not bad, you actually repelled me." Gong Changyu smiled.
"General, that's when you first recovered from your injury, and you haven't recovered yet, so you conceded." Jiufeng clenched his fists and said.
"Jiufeng, the military advisor hasn't come back yet, where have you gone?" Gong Changyu touched his belly, "I'm so hungry." β
"Sister Ying, she didn't say where to go, anyway, she just asked me to wait for her in the room, and I must wait until she comes back before I can go to the town. Don't embarrass me. Okay, Brother Changyu? Jiufeng (Ran Yingying) looked embarrassed.
"Hey, you girls, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, I'm also convinced. Well, if you don't go, you won't go, lest you worry about being afraid and go around looking for me. Gong Changyu had no choice but to return to the grain cart and lie on his side.
"General, there's nothing wrong, I'm going to camp?" The scout asked.
"Go, by the way, talk to Hei Dashuai and Li Dayu, ask him to maintain order in the military camp, don't disturb the people, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!" Gong Changyu instructed the scouts.
"Order, General." The scout patted the horse and left. There were only Jiufeng and two or three women in black left in the grain cart, and they were speechless for a while.
The sun was slowly setting, and on a busy day, people walked over two stone arch bridges one after another, some returning to the town, some walking out of the town, wave after wave. Gong Changyu saw the vast flow of people, like a carp crossing the river, and he couldn't help but ask: Wow, where did so many people come from, did they come out of the ground, or did they fall from the sky?
"Brother Changyu, this Laojie town is located at the junction of the three counties, although it is a town, its prosperity is no less than that of Shicheng, and it is also a city, so there is always a general source of this endless flow of people, and these people come from near or far villages." Jiufeng was tired of standing and sat down on the edge of the grain cart, "Urban civilization is the extension and gathering of rural civilization, and the people who walk in the town are either citizens, or the second and third generations of the township who have some kind of kinship with the countryside. β
"Right. Either a countryman, or a countryman's son, or a countryman's son, or a countryman's grandson, or a countryman's grandson, or a countryman's grandson. In short, there are not many native-born citizens, and the countryside is the grandfather and father of the town, hahaha......" Gong Changyu stroked his palms and laughed.
"Yes. The countryside is the starting point of the town, and without the countrymen, there are no city people. A woman in black said.
"General Ben doesn't understand, why should the countryman be called a countryman and not a countryman? The mountains in the countryside are higher than those in the city, and the rivers in the city all flow down from the mountains. Which birdman invented the word redneck, Lao Tzu really wanted to cut his tongue with a knife! Gong Changyu tilted his head and said unhurriedly.
"Brother Changyu, the word countryman was definitely not invented by Cangjie. The so-called countryside, has nothing to do with geographical location, it is a kind of psychological direction, people who live in the countryside, far away from the political, economic and cultural strong towns, are psychologically at a disadvantage and disadvantage, so people in the city can only call people from the countryside countrymen, not countrymen. Jiufeng smiled bitterly, "Actually, I'm also from the countryside." β
"There's nothing wrong with the country. Sunrise and sunset, grains, melons, vegetables, potatoes and beans, are very useful, eat wide body and fat, happy and healthy. The countryman believes in the idea of half and half ......," Gong Changyu rubbed his calloused hands.
"What half-and-half-idea?" Jiufeng asked.
Gong Changyu pointed to the sky and then to the ground, and then said: "Half a day and half a ......."
"Half man and half woman, half mountain and half water, half field and half land, half mountain and half evil, half way and half demon, half ploughing and half ......reading" I don't know when, Feng Jiao'er came back flutteringly.
"Master, why did you come back?" Gong Changyu looked back.
"If I don't come back, where can I go?" Feng Jiao'er dragged a few sweat-soaked silver tickets in her hand, "I'm so tired that I ran seven or eight money houses, and I haven't seen the 'Mao Shengxiang' silver number here......"
"Boss, I didn't tell you, there is no semicolon of the Zhu family compound in this Laojie Town......" Gong Changyuhan said with a smile.
"Didn't I want to try it? It's been several years since you left the Zhu family's compound, and your uncle's money bank should have developed. Feng Jiao'er took out a silk silk and wiped the beads of sweat on both sides of her cheeks.
"My uncle has always acted like walking on thin ice, cautious and cautious, steady and steady, he will not open the branch of Qianzhuang all over the country." Gong Changyu said seriously.
"Hey, you can't exchange silver, this silver ticket is better than losing it." Feng Jiao'er casually threw a few silver tickets on the grain cart.
"In charge, this silver ticket will be very useful as long as it enters Jingnan County." Gong Changyu picked up the silver ticket.
"But we are still in Jiangzuo County, more than 1,000 people eat, drink, and sleep, and they have to ask for silver. The grain and grass were only brought for ten days and half a month, and before this battle was fought, we starved to death on the journey, hey......" Feng Jiao'er let out a long sigh.
"In charge, I have to go to the town immediately, find General Yin Zongtang and Governor Jiang Changyi, and ask them to turn their fate." Gong Changyu turned over and got off the grain cart.
"It's too late, so don't go." Feng Jiao'er shook her head, "Especially Jiang Changyi, don't even think about it." β
"Why can't you think about it?" Gong Changyu was a little confused.
"Jiang Changyi has 20,000 horses, where does he want to grab a little silver! You didn't give Charlemagne's bones to his men, and you were too embarrassed to ask him for silver? β
"What if he didn't know about it?"
"You killed Jiang Changyi's right-hand men, and he will settle this account with you sooner or later. If you go to see him, you will ask for a thousand people's food, grass and military salaries, and he will not be suspicious. β
"yes. What I brought with me were all mixed troops of the Blue Wolf Army and the Qinghe Army, and the Blue Wolf Army accounted for more than half, so it was not easy to do......"
"That's right. We'll stay in town tonight and we'll figure out how to scrape together the money tomorrow. β
"Okay." Gong Changyu nodded.
So, a few people got on the grain cart and rode to the stone arch bridge. When I arrived in the town, many inns were closed, and I didn't find one until the end of the alley, which was very deserted, Feng Jiao'er parked the grain cart outside and went in alone.
Standing on the edge of the threshold was a big man with a "Zhang Fei beard" and a towel on his shoulder, and he asked coldly: "This girl, do you want to stay in a hotel or eat?" β
"I also eat food, and I live in the store." Feng Jiaoer responded.
"Just you?" Dahan asked.
"There were five of us. Bring me three upper rooms. Feng Jiao'er stretched out five fingers.
"Okay, please." Dahan suddenly became enthusiastic.
"This little brother, don't you have any other guys in the store?" Feng Jiao'er looked around, she didn't see half a figure, the death-like silence, and thought that she had entered hell on earth, and she couldn't help but feel weak in her heart.
"Yes. The location of our inn is not good, it is dismal business, and the guys are resting in the back room. Dahan high-fived three times in the store, "Guys, come out, get to work!" β
"Shopkeeper's. We're comingβ"
Then four or five guys ran out of the backstage, all men.
"Go and prepare a table of good food and drink." The big man shouted.
"Okay."
The guys dispersed and went into the kitchen.
"You're the shopkeeper?" Feng Jiao'er was puzzled.
"Questions?" Shouting Han said with a smile.
"Look at your fierce look, the guests don't dare to come in, why don't you find two little girls to receive customers?" Feng Jiao'er found a place and sat down.
"Girl, listen to your accent, you're not a local, are you?" Dahan said as he wiped the table and stool.
"Yes. I'm from Ping'an County. Feng Jiao'er replied casually.
"Girl, wait a moment, I'll go and get your companion here." Dahan brought a pot of herbal tea, placed it in front of Feng Jiao'er, poured her a large cup of tea, and politely, "Girl, please use it slowly." β
As soon as the big man arrived outside the door, Gong Changyu and several black-clothed women with wolf head patterns on their clothes were sitting on the grain cart, and they were surprised: "Are you the blue wolf army?" β
"Shhhh Gong Changyu jumped out of the car and suddenly arrived in front of Dahan.
"Then you ......," Dahan said, pointing at Jiufeng.
"Brother, you don't have to worry. We won't eat without paying. Gong Changyu patted the big man on the shoulder, and then looked at Jiufeng, "This is my wife, and the other three are my maids......"
"Oh, I see. General Yanfu is not shallow...... "The big man opened the gate and brought Gong Changyu into the door.
After sitting down, Jiufeng sat opposite Gong Changyu, she stared at Gong Changyu's face vigorously, the mess in her heart, Brother Changyu, when did you become your wife? Really!
Feng Jiao'er, who was sitting side by side with Gong Changyu, seemed to see something, and shook the teacup in front of Jiufeng's eyes a few times, but Jiufeng didn't react. Thinking about it, Jiufeng's eyes are weird, could it be a nymphomaniac?
"Madame, please order a few dishes." Dahan stood beside Jiufeng with a recipe and said with a smile.
"Me?" Jiufeng looked dazed.
