The place where Qiao Wanshi stopped was called Yunjin City, which was the capital of Tianyun Mansion.

From the capital to Tianyun Mansion, you have to pass through Shangyun Mansion and Qingyun Mansion all the way, and it is already far away from Beijing.

On this way south, the temperature is significantly higher than that in the capital.

Sikong Fan teased her, "You told the convoy to go all the way south, could it be that you want to come to a warmer place in the south?" ”

Qiao Wanshi raised her eyebrows, she wasn't for this.

"Uncle Yong, disperse all the people we brought, I want to find something black, which looks like charcoal, but is much harder than charcoal, and prefers to be like stone. However, this kind of thing is usually underground, and it may be necessary to dig dozens of meters into the ground...... Dig one or two hundred feet to find it, let everyone look for it. Qiao Wanshi said.

What she was looking for was coal.

If coal mines can be discovered, it will really benefit the people

Uncle Yong was instructed to divide the people he brought into eight teams, in groups of three, and spread out in eight directions along the outside of Yunjin City, looking for each other.

Qiao Wanshi looked at the mountains to the west of Yunjin City, the terrain of the entire Yunjin City was relatively high, and it was considered to be at the foot of the mountain.

She felt that she was not wrong in the direction she was looking for, this should be a large coal mine area in the central region of the later generations, stretching for hundreds of miles, and the underground was full of coal!

The manpower was sent out, and Qiao Wanshi wanted to form a team with Sikong Fan to go out to find it.

Sikong Fan was helpless, "You are so afraid of the cold, are you sure that on such a cold day, you can get out of the carriage?" ”

Although Yunjin City is much warmer than the capital, it is only relatively speaking, and it is actually still cold.

Qiao Wanshi poked her head out, and immediately shrunk her neck to hide back in the carriage, she really couldn't get out of the carriage.

Looking for coal mines, she actually can't help much, digging the ground to find coal, it's not something she can do as a weak woman.

"Then let's take a stroll around Yunjin City." Qiao Wanshi changed her mind.

Yunjin City cannot be as rich as the capital, even if it is not comparable to the neighboring Qingyun Mansion.

Shangyun Mansion, where the Qing family is located, is a wealthy place, and it is not worse than the capital.

However, where there are poor, it is the people who are poor, and there are local tyrants everywhere.

Qiao Wanshi's rouge shop is a woman's business and earns women's silver.

Those local tyrants must have three wives and four concubines, Yingying Yanyan, and these women will definitely not lack silver in their hands.

Uncle Yong turned the carriage and wanted to turn a corner, when a carriage suddenly came from the other side of the street, because Qiao Wanshi's carriage was turning around and crossing the street, blocking the not very spacious street, and the carriage coming from the other side had to stop.

The carriage stopped, and the people in the carriage were immediately unhappy, "What's the matter?" ”

"If you go back to the third lady, there is a carriage in front of you that turns around and blocks the road." The coachman replied back.

The young lady in the carriage said angrily, "What a bold man, even Miss Ben's way dares to stand in the way!" Go, bring me the people in that carriage who don't know whether they are alive or dead!" ”

As soon as the young lady gave the order, a group of guards immediately came over and surrounded Qiao Wanshi's carriage.

Qiao Wanshi lifted the curtain and glanced outside, pouting, is this still an unreasonable person?

In fact, her carriage has been turned around at this time, this eldest lady who doesn't know which one is doing this, didn't it delay everyone's time?

Seeing that the guards were about to tear Uncle Yong down, and someone tried to open the curtain of the carriage, Sikong Fan's eyes tightened, and he took Qiao Wanshi's waist card and stretched out of the car with one hand.

As soon as the guard saw that it was a waist card, he knew that the car was not an ordinary person, and then looked closely, only to see four words written on it: Yifeng County Lord.

County...... The county lord?

The guard immediately ran back to his carriage, "Miss, ahead...... It is the carriage of the lord of Yee Fung County. ”

The eldest lady in the carriage was choked, she didn't want to lose face, but she was the county lord, and she was as big as her father!

It's okay to say at the same level, but which county lord is not a palace noble?

What I'm afraid of is not the county lord herself, who has no real power and only an official rank, but the forces behind her!

This eldest lady's father can become the governor of the state capital, of course, he will not have no background, but they are dependent, and the county lord is directly from a family, which is still different.

In desperation, the eldest lady still muttered, "Call everyone back!" ”

Not to mention the carriage around the people, even if you urge the carriage in front of you to give way or tell them to go quickly, you don't dare.

Qiao Wanshi didn't have the time to fight with this kind of straw-headed lady, the other party could see her waist card for the sake of saving her face.

"Uncle Yong, let's go." Qiao Wanshi whispered, and Uncle Yong, who had just been pulled off the carriage, immediately jumped up, raised his whip, and drove the carriage away.

In the carriage behind, a very charming-looking girl twisted her handkerchief, her mouth pursed, and she was unwilling.

The mother-in-law next to her persuaded in a low voice, "Don't worry about the eldest lady, they are all women from the family, and they are just turning their heads and delaying a little time." ”

The young lady snorted, in this Yunjin City, no one has ever dared to stand in her way!

There is a father who is a prefect, where does this Miss Lian Rongrong go is not held and respected?

The mother-in-law still persuaded in a low voice, and after a while, even Rong Rong muttered dissatisfiedly, "Ouch, okay, thank you, mother, don't talk about it anymore, I'm not angry." ”

Mother Xie is her wet nurse, even Rong Rong still respects this wet nurse who is always chattering in her ear, she knows that the wet nurse is really good for her, and she also really treats the wet nurse as half of her relatives, which is not comparable to ordinary people.

Mother Xie said outside, "Let's go." ”

The carriage started again.

Qiao Wanshi asked Uncle Yong to drive the carriage to the largest fat powder shop in Yunjin City, this is easy to inquire, and she asked the two people casually.

Moreover, Yunjin City is not very big, and in less than a pillar of incense, Uncle Yong drove the carriage to a shop called Liyanfang.

Putting down the stool to get off the car, Sikong Fan jumped down from the carriage first, and then helped Qiao Wanshi to get off the car.

Qiao Wanshi was wearing a snow fox coat, a pure white snow fox skin, without a trace of variegation, and it was the finest fox skin.

After getting out of the car, Qiao Wanshi hurriedly put on her hood, surrounded by airtight, and there was a soup woman in her hands, so she still walked a few steps quickly until she entered the gate of Liyan Fang.

There was a thick cotton curtain at the gate, and two servants stood outside, who were dedicated to making curtains for customers.

Liyanfang sells things for women, Sikong Fan can't enter, he threw a string of money to the two mothers-in-law who opened the curtain at the door, and then went back to the car.

Uncle Yong got into the carriage, drove the carriage forward, and stopped on the side of the road.

At this time, another carriage came from behind, and as soon as it stopped at the gate of Liyanfang, the coachman said, "Huh", "That's not the carriage just now?" ”
