Chen Yuan stayed at Fuquan Inn on the seventh day. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Lin Yi, does that one still refuse to show up?"
Qing Linyi smiled bitterly, the one who didn't show up, wasn't it your uncle's baby son who offended?
He wanted to say it directly, but he hesitated, but he didn't say anything, just nodded.
"It's really shameless, he really thinks that our Qing clan is afraid of him? If it weren't for the fact that the matter hadn't been done...... it was Qing Linyun's father who spoke, and because of his son, he didn't have the slightest good impression of Chen Yuan.
Qing Yuanhao interrupted Qing Yuanying's complaints, "Okay, big brother, now is not the time to talk about this, if it is really like what that person said, there will be a wolf disaster, then it is not safe here, and the clan still has to prepare early." As Qing Yuanying's own brother, he naturally has the confidence to say this.
Qing Yuanying played with a jade wrench, "I have already asked the second brother to arrange this matter, and I will send the "seedlings" of the clan to the county town early tomorrow morning, it has already been arranged over there, and it is the safest." ”
"Since it's the second brother's arrangement, it's no problem......"
"Master, it's not good, it's not good. A man dressed in black stumbled in, looking dressed as the steward of the house.
"Presumptuous, who told you to come in, get out of here!" Qing Yuanying shouted angrily, he had ordered early this morning that no one was allowed to enter this hall without his permission, and now this steward rushed in, just slapping him in the face. In the long run, what authority does he have?
Qing Yuanhao saw that something was wrong, he still knew about this matter, if he didn't really encounter any major incidents, he would never ignore his eldest brother's orders and do his own thing. Thinking of this, he persuaded and said, "Big brother, first listen to what Steward Hao has to report, if it is an inconsequential matter, it is not too late to punish it." ”
Qing Yuanying regretted it after shouting, this Hao steward was brought up by him, how could he not know his temper? No, there is something really important, this Hao steward would never break in so recklessly. Qing Yuanhao's words undoubtedly gave him a step, "Say, give you a chance, if it's not something important, be careful of your skin." ”
Steward Hao got up from the ground with a pale face, and his body seemed to be uncontrollable all the time, "Hey, report to the eldest master, just now the little one came back from the second master, the second master said, now there are countless wilderness outside, countless wild wolves, all the way out are blocked, the second master wants to stay in the official office, and tell the little one to come back and tell the eldest master, so that the eldest master can prepare early." ”
"What are you talking about!" Qing Yuanying exclaimed, and for a while, he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Steward Hao, does the second brother have any other orders?" In the end, it was Qingyuanhao who had more city government, and after listening to Steward Hao's words, his face was as usual.
Steward Hao thought for a while and replied, "The second master also said that he would tell the old lady as soon as possible and make every effort to strengthen the courtyard wall. The city guards may not be able to hold it at that time, and in the end, it depends on whether they can survive the end. ”
Qing Yuanying reacted at this time, "Steward Hao, you immediately arrange manpower to make the courtyard wall as high and reinforced as possible, and notify the clansmen outside to let them come back within today." ”
"Big man, let's go. ”
Qing Yuanying waited for Steward Hao to leave, and turned his head to look at Qing Yuanhao, "Third brother, let's go see our father and see if there is any other way." ”
"Uncle, do you want to notify me over there?" Qing Linyi's heart shook, he didn't expect that the wolf disaster that Chen Yuan said seemed to be really about to happen, at this time, after listening to Qing Yuanying's arrangement, he couldn't help but move in his heart and asked.
"That, at his age, at most nine grades, even if the qualifications are against the sky, the wolf disaster is not something that can be eliminated by one person. Qing Yuanying smiled disdainfully and walked towards the depths of the courtyard.
Qing Yuanhao didn't know the temper of his eldest brother, and smiled helplessly: "Lin Yi, you go and talk to that person, see how he reacts, if he wants, you can take him to the house for a while." ”
......
Fuquan Inn.
"You say, the outside has been surrounded by wild wolves?" Chen Yuan played with a roll of bamboo slips, playing with the taste.
Qing Linyi's face was not very good-looking, he deliberately went to the family to check the ancient books that recorded the old things, and was frightened by the wolf disaster scene described above, this is a real natural disaster.
"Okay, I got it. After speaking, Chen Yuan picked up the teacup on the table and wanted to drink.
There is also a habit of serving tea to guests here, and when Qing Linyi saw this, he didn't say much, but just tactfully conveyed Qing Yuanhao's invitation.
After Qinglinyi left, Chen Yuan called Fuquan, "Fuquan, do you know the situation of the specialties here, since the shopkeeper Lin has spent a lot of money, I still have to make some efforts, otherwise it will be difficult to explain." ”
Fu Quan only felt a little weak now, although he had not seen the horror of the wolf disaster, but he had a good relationship with several merchant captains in the Baomo Pavilion, and often pestered them to inquire about what they had seen on the road, once, he accidentally talked about the wolf disaster, and now he still clearly remembers that when a captain inadvertently said the word wolf disaster, the other captain became hideous at that moment.
"Chen, Mr. Chen, if we don't, let's go to the Qing family to avoid it first, didn't the Qing steward just say it!"
Chen Yuan is funny, along the way, this guy doesn't seem to be so timid, when it comes to wolf disasters, it's average, why is it so unbearable now?
"Let's talk about the Qingpu first, I have my own plans for the rest. ”
Hearing the persistence in Chen Yuan's words, Fuquan had to cheer up and explain: "The specialty of this Qingpu Town is Qingpu, which is a kind of ink-colored grass, which is an important auxiliary material for the main ink like our Baomo Pavilion. ”
Chen Yuan thought for a moment and asked, "Where does this green pu grow, and will the wild wolf eat this grass?"
Fuquan shook his head, "How can wolves eat grass? It's just that this green cattail generally grows in the deep forest, and it needs a special herb picker to pick it, and we can't say where to pick it and how to pick it, so we let the local branch buy it at a high price, and then ship it back to the main store." ”
"It is estimated that the shopkeeper Lin hopes that Mr. Chen, you will help protect the herb pickers here, as long as these herb pickers are fine, this Qingpu will naturally be fine. ”
Chen Yuan pondered for a moment, and accepted Fuquan's suggestion very happily, "You go to the young steward now, and ask him to bring the medicine picker who has a good relationship to the store, and I will go over later." ”
......
Qingpu Town, City Gate.
"Brother Wang, you said that these beasts won't really attack in, right?"
"Attack the fart, this wall is made of bluestone, and there is no crack in the sword, and the claws of these beasts will be sharper than the sword?"
"Mom, I'm scared to death, it's the first time I've seen so many wolves, you see, it's dense, and I don't know how many. ”
"Okay, go back quickly, otherwise the adults will punish you, but no one will care about you. ”
The wilderness was full of wolves, and at a glance, there was almost no end in sight, and from time to time one or two terrible wolf howls resounded through the sky, shaking the hearts of the guards on the city walls.
