Chapter 489: A Thousand Miles Scout
The Ren family is a big business businessman, and often brings some Persian carpets, strange spices and plant seeds that have never appeared in Dazhang from overseas, these things are very popular in Yulu County, and the red pearl danguo that Yu Xia loved to eat before was made of persimmons brought from overseas.
Although no one in the Ren family is in the court, but in this Yulu County, it is very popular, and today is 60 years old, and almost all the local figures with heads and faces have gone.
Their blood has not been collected.
If these people are all fooled by Gu, it will almost be pinched for Yulu County.
Su Xi's face that had just relaxed became solemn again.
"I have asked someone to bring a letter to Yueling to find a chance to check, I hope she can go well."
Yan Ruyu said again.
That's all there is to it for now.
The Ren family is strong, and even the county magistrate can't bring these people out of it and ask for blood collection.
No wonder Yan Ruyu's blood collection went so smoothly before, it turned out that several local heroes were not there at all, and they all went to Ren's house.
Fortunately, the sea has frozen recently, and the Ren family has no merchant ships in and out, which has saved them a lot of trouble in controlling the situation in the city.
Ren family.
This whole day of blowing and blowing, the old lady Ren was already tired, and finally the guests rested, and she also entered the house to rest, but there was a knock on the door.
"Mother, it's me."
It is Master Ren, the eldest son of the old lady, and the head of the Ren family.
Master Ren entered the house, looked at the maid who was squatting to wash Mrs. Ren's feet, and felt a little angry.
"When did my mother buy a new girl? This age is still young, you have to train well for two years before you can use it, if you are short of people here, I will send you two to use it. ”
Old Lady Ren shook her head.
"This girl is pitiful, her mother died of her husband, she pulled a pair of children alone, and she couldn't afford to eat, no, she sold the girl for her son, and it happened that I bumped into her, so I bought her and named her Miao Miao."
It is not uncommon to sell women and raise children like this, but whenever Mrs. Ren bumps into her, she will stretch out her hand, so Master Ren didn't feel much surprised.
"Have you checked your body? Nothing sick, right? Master Ren asked.
Mrs. Ren smiled and nodded, "This is natural, this girl is strong, and she looks clean and watery, I look happy." ”
"What do those people say?" Mrs. Ren changed the subject.
It is one thing to give Mrs. Ren a birthday today, but the other purpose is to go to sea for business.
"They were all afraid and refused to take any more money. The main thing is that last year, a shipload of goods was overturned, and the money invested was lost, so I was unwilling to cooperate with our family anymore. ”
Thinking of this, Master Ren frowned, "That 'clairvoyance' is really a good thing, I showed them, but they all think that although it is magical, it is not very useful, it is just a gadget to buy home for children to play, this kind of thing, ordinary people can't afford it, what they can afford is to be fresh for a while, and when the freshness is over, no one cares." ”
"What is clairvoyance?" A childish voice sounded suddenly.
Master Ren was stunned for a moment, but found that Miao Miao, who had originally bowed her head to wash Mrs. Ren's feet, was looking up at herself curiously.
Miao Miao is really smart, her eyes are big and bright, her skin is fair and tender, and she doesn't look like a person from Yulu County.
looks very well-behaved, but I don't know much about the rules, the master speaks, how can there be a reason for people to interject at will?
Master Ren was about to reprimand, but the old lady Ren explained with a smile, "'Clairvoyance' is something made by overseas Yi people who can see things in the distance clearly like clairvoyance. ”
"It's really amazing!" Miao Miao nodded heavily, her eyes were shining, and she was puzzled, "So they mean that no one will buy our 'clairvoyance'?" ”
Mrs. Ren was very helpful to her "our family", and nodded with a sigh.
"yes, such a good thing, they even said that it would not be sold."
Miao Miao blinked strangely, "Isn't it very convenient to use this kind of thing when you are fighting?" ”
Fight?
Mrs. Ren and Mr. Ren were both stunned, yes, if you can see farther than the enemy, then don't you know the fighter first? "Clairvoyance" is used on the battlefield, and the role it can play is unimaginable!
The mother and son couldn't help but be a little excited when they thought of that scene, but they frowned slightly and glanced at Miao Miao.
"Miao Miao, where did you know about the war?"
A family that is so poor that she wants to sell her daughter, a ten-year-old girl who has never seen much of the world, how can she know that she can use clairvoyance in war?
Miao Miao blinked, her face was innocent, "It's just that when my mother took me and my brother to beg on the street, I heard the people in the teahouse say, saying what monkeys should be used in the war, and they are responsible for running to the front to find out the news." ”
Old lady Ren was happy, "That's not a monkey, it's a scout, and it's a scout who specializes in reconnoitring the enemy." ”
"Red monkeys? Are there even red monkeys? Be sure to see it for yourself in the future. Miao Miao looked yearning.
Mrs. Ren looked at each other and smiled, it seems that this girl did happen to hear it and remembered it, an unintentional word, but it gave them a brilliant idea.
On the other side, Yan Yueling, who was supposed to be resting in the wing, changed into a black power suit and covered her face and fell into a room.
The people in the house had fallen asleep.
Yan Yueling walked lightly to the head of the man's bed, reached out and took out a handkerchief to cover the man's mouth and nose, and the man slept even deeper.
Yan Yueling ripped off the clothes on the man's chest, then took out a needle and pierced it in the man's heart, then took out a porcelain bottle and filled it with the blood beads that came out.
After doing this, Yan Yueling restored everything to its original state, and then left quietly.
On the second day, the guests who stayed at Ren's house completely ignored the host's reservation and insisted on leaving.
Yan Yueling also made a farewell at this time.
Master Ren scratched his heart through his clothes, looked at Yan Yueling with a veil, and smiled politely.
"Thank you Miss Yan for appreciating the light, my mother loves the music you play very much."
At this time, a maid came over with a box, and it was the remuneration for Yan Yueling's performance.
Yan Yueling didn't look at it, and nodded to Master Ren, "Since that's the case, then I'll go back." ”
Master Ren didn't force him to stay, so he watched Yan Yueling hold her piano and leave through the side door.
When Yan Yueling came back, Yu Xia and the others were having breakfast.
Yu Xia recovered a lot after a full night's rest, and the whole person looked quite energetic.
Su Xi researched the antidote to the medicinal powder, and Bai Zhenqian and the others finally recovered.
"Master Su, this is the heartwork of everyone in the Ren family yesterday."
Yan Yueling expressionlessly handed Su Xi a burden.
