439 Inn

Xu Yue, who was carefully dressed by Xu Erniang, amazed the family, but this surprise did not last long, and after the Chinese New Year's Eve meal, Xu Yue changed back into casual clothes.

But the girl's bright and moving appearance in a red dress is deeply impressed in everyone's hearts tonight.

Zhao Bei took his reluctant son Zhao Adou back to his residence, and the appearance of Xu Yue's childhood repeatedly appeared in his mind, and he was full of emotion for a while.

Who would have thought that the little girl who still had baby fat on her cheeks at the beginning would now become the leader of the Xu family's army.

He couldn't have imagined that his vision when he was young would be realized step by step.

The streets and alleys recall the sound of crackling spinning tops, the laughter of children fills the streets and alleys, and the aroma of food comes from every house.

The Xu Jiajun on duty held baskets in their hands, which contained steaming steamed buns and bone broth, and came to comfort every single elderly family.

There is no war, no hunger and cold, no oppression by power in Juyong City...... This is the new world created by Xu Jiajun.

And he, Zhao Bei, is also involved.

He has a part of the credit for this new world!

The bell in the church rang, and the infinitely gentle chanting had a soothing effect, and Zhao Bei's heart was peaceful.

Listening to his son's humming on his shoulder, the corners of Zhao Bei's mouth rose, his body was as straight as a green pine, his eyes were like a torch, his steps were firm, and he strode forward.

.

Juyong City is lively and lively.

Looking at the melting snow on the eaves, the three Xu Yue brothers and sisters also prepared to go to Zhuo County.

Xu Dalang returned to the barracks to order troops and selected fifty elites as accompanying guards.

Xu Yue didn't have much to prepare, mainly to sort out the negotiation ideas and design an action plan for the upcoming statewide census.

Food, clothing, shelter and transportation, everything is simple.

Xu Erniang wants to take the two children with her.

Afraid of the twins bumps on the road, Xu Erniang personally supervised the engineering department and made a carriage suitable for babies.

A fixed cot can be installed in the carriage, and a seat belt is added to prevent the twins from being thrown out during bumps.

Transportation was arranged, and several sons of God in the church were selected to take care of the twins in close proximity and protect their safety.

In this way, Xu Erniang can take the child with her and have time to deal with business.

By the time Xu Yue and the others had finished their preparations, the weather had warmed up, and the snow on the road had melted.

At the beginning of February, the three siblings Zhao Bei and Xu Yue left Juyong City with their escorts and went to Zhuo County.

Ah Jian stayed in Juyong City, and Wang Pingping was ready to take his apprentices to the military camp for actual combat experience.

Zhao Adou was reluctant to worship his eldest brother and second brother, and the night before leaving, he cried a handful of snot and tears.

It's a pity that Zhao Bei didn't dare to leave his son here, although he also wanted Wang Pingping to throw his boy into the barracks to experience the experience.

But thinking about Mrs. Gan, I hesitated.

Xu Da was still wondering at the time, "Brother Xuande has also become afraid of guilt?" ”

"Also?" Zhao Bei's eyes widened, "Who is with you, Xu Daoyou is afraid of inside, that is you Xu Daoyou, I, Zhao Xuande, am not afraid of inside!" ”

Xu Da raised his eyebrows, just smiled, and did not refute, but it seemed that Zhao Bei's words seemed to be hiding something.

Zhao Bei: "......"

Zhao Bei, who had a hard time arguing, had no choice but to hug his son, who was crying to death, and turned his head out of Juyong County.

Xu Jiajun's road was repaired well and quickly, starting from Juyong County and walking to the junction of Dai County and Shanggu County, all of which were wide and flat cement roads.

Along the way, the different customs and landforms of Juyong County have already transferred Zhao Adou's sadness.

Xu Yue, Xu Dalang, and Zhao Bei and his son on horseback walked in the forefront, followed by fifty elite cavalrymen.

Xu Erniang took the children and the accompanying gods and walked at the back.

The group was very fast, the twins were amazingly adaptable, and they didn't cry all the way, just like knowing that their uncle and aunt had to do business, and they were so well-behaved that it was distressing.

It took five days for Xu Yue and the others to come from Shanggu County to Dai County.

Daijun and Gongsun are adjacent to Bingzhou, where Xu Yue and the others encountered several waves of Bingzhou tenants who had secretly fled from the border of Bingzhou to join the Xu family's army.

Xu Jiajun has a policy, all the people who come to vote voluntarily will be given land and land, and they will also be taught how to plant fairy rice, and the people under Xu Jiajun will be treated equally.

Therefore, many tenants in several states and counties near Youzhou have quietly escaped.

However, Gongsun Zhan and others are not vegetarians, and after discovering this incident, they set up checkpoints on the way to Youzhou, and once they found that someone was ready to flee, they would be killed.

It's a pity that the temptation of being able to divide the land is too great, even if they know that they will die, there are still people who are willing to take the risk and hide in the middle of the caravan and rush towards the territory of the Xu family's army.

For the caravan, Gongsun Chan and others have their own set of methods.

They didn't stop the caravan from coming over to make a deal with Xu Jiajun - as long as they tasted the sweetness of Xu Jiajun's abundant supplies, no one didn't want to continue, and they couldn't stop it.

However, it is not easy for businessmen to smoothly communicate between the two sides, and every time they encounter a checkpoint, they always have to be scraped with some oil and water.

But in general, risks and benefits coexist, not to mention that the business tax classification on Xu Jiajun's side is reasonable, and they can still make a lot of money, let alone care about the oil and water that is scraped off.

Xu Yue and the others traveled this time, and the situation on the road was much better than before.

Walking on the cement road, I live in a newly built post house with hot meals and hot water for bathing.

Not only can the Xu soldiers live, but the hotel next door to the post house can also provide accommodation for passing merchants.

Although the price of a night is not cheap, it is safe and secure, and you can drink a sip of hot soup, as long as you are not too strapped for money, businessmen will choose to stay in hotels.

Xu Jiajun's post house has one every thirty miles, and a small part of it is newly built.

Most of the rest was rebuilt on the basis of the abandoned post house left by the original Qingguo.

There is a post house, the road is easy to walk, and Xu Yue and his party did not suffer at all.

was selected by Xu Dalang, one of the fifty elites who were fortunate to follow, centurion Ma Liang, along the way, was shocked by this powerful transportation construction.

In the past, it was also a post for thirty miles, but the post house could not live at all, and there was no post management.

Some of the inns have been abandoned for many years and have long been covered with grass.

In the past ten years, the world has been in turmoil, bandits are rampant, there are no caravans, there are no traveling people, and the imperial court has no ability to manage post stations, which makes these post stations useless.

But now it is different, the cement roads paved by Xu Jiajun cover almost all the main roads in the county, and the people are convenient to travel, and countless people go to the city to work.

The flow of people increased, the bandits were eliminated, and Xu Jiajun attached great importance to commerce and vigorously encouraged merchants to trade.

Thirty miles and a post, looking at the current momentum, it can definitely be maintained very well.

Even better than in its previous heyday.
