Dense crowds of people surrounded Gu Huai tightly, with the table in the middle as the center, and the entire lobby gathered the remaining hundred or so men from the carriage and horse shop.

Gu Huai, who was sitting in the center, picked up the teacup, his expression was not very nervous, although the formation was large, but no one should know about the Pufu and half of the carriage and horse shop except the palace, otherwise it would be a bad deal today... Maybe it will be difficult for me to get out of this carriage.

"The problem of living, you don't have to worry, the carriage and horse shop can be sealed or not, the official of the political envoy just now sold it very happily in the next face, this carriage and horse shop... You can continue to live. ”

A large number of relieved voices came and went, converging into a huge wave of sound, and the women around the periphery cried with joy, this big New Year, finally no need to go out to find a house.

Although the burly man who was found and looked like a leader was also a little touched on his face, the people who were at the bottom of the society had always known the truth that nothing was done to be courteous or a thief, so he just thanked him and asked, "Why did Engong help?" ”

"What you are doing is the work of transporting goods and sending cars, and the trade route is on the grassland, so I know," Gu Huai put down the teacup and did not answer positively, "Pu Hong is dead, the steward is in charge, although the trade route is broken, but you are all good at it, and you can go to the grassland again with the carriage and horses, so this trade route... I want to pick it up under it. ”

The burly man was stunned and shook his head: "We just care about delivery, the road from Beiping to the border grassland is familiar, but if there is no owner and steward to deal with those who are soldiers, we can't even get out of the border pass, how can we go this way?" ”

His big palm pressed on the table: "Besides, things are transported to the grassland, there are many horse bandits along the way, even the Mongols have to pretend to be roadblocks to grab it, those tribes are also the most shrewd, if there are no familiar faces, the price will be lowered, and without the relationship of the owner, no matter how you go, it will be a loss." ”

Gu Huai's face became solemn: "There are more ways to do this than I thought. ”

He rubbed his eyebrows: "How did you solve the matter of horse bandits and gangsters before?" ”

"The owner has a good relationship with the military leaders of the border pass, and when they leave the border pass, they want to send a paragraph," the burly man said, "and the owner also has a relationship in many tribes." ”

"So you want to tell me that this carriage and horse shop can't leave Pu Hong?" Gu Huai smiled, "It's a pity, if he wants to drive a horse shop again, he will probably have to drive it in the underworld." ”

He stood up and looked down at the burly man's eyes: "Since you can't get out of the pass, let's change your thinking, you wait at the border pass, wait for the Mongols on the steppe to send the goods in, and you take over and transport them back to Beiping, is this feasible?" ”

The burly man didn't think about it, and shook his head directly: "Where are the Mongolians so easy to talk to?" Their fur is plentiful..."

"Who said I'm going to take my fur?"

Gu Huai stretched out his hand and shook it: "What I want to collect, no one in the entire Peking Ping dares to rush to collect it." ”

Unless they also want to rebel, Gu Huai thought lightly.

This domineering remark made the burly man stunned, and he hesitated for a moment: "If the Mongols can really send it to the border gate, we can bring the freight back, and we are familiar with this road." ”

"That's fine, so I need to take a trip to the grassland."

Gu Huai glanced at the dense crowd: "Change your name, the carriage and horse shop will be reopened, don't say that I am a white wolf with empty gloves, I don't care about the previous salary, but this month's salary can be paid first, if things go well, before the beginning of spring, you will be alive." ”

"What's your name?"

The burly man was stunned, got up and said, "Ren Wanbin." ”

"In a few days, do you dare to accompany me to the grassland?" Gu Huai raised his eyebrows, "Don't tell me you don't know the way." ”

In silence, the burly man smiled:

"No problem, owner."

......

In a sense, Gu Huai didn't buy the car and horse dealership, because the previous car and horse shop had been dispersed.

Pu Hong, who relied on personality charm or means to combine the steward and the guy who ran the trade road, has died, and the steward of the carriage and horse shop has also been caught by the political envoy Si Yamen.

So there is no need to sign the contract, and they don't have to open their mouths to count the accounts that have not been settled before on Gu Huai's head, but Gu Huai is now half a rich man, based on a kind of hard-working people who don't blow Pu Hong up to the sky, they don't have to live such a miserable year, Gu Huai still decided to pay the first month's salary earlier, no matter whether this encounter can be successful or not, at least let them not worry about their livelihood.

It's just that in this way, it is estimated that there is not much money left from selling perfumes, and fortunately, there is no need to pay for the raw materials for making weapons and armor from the grassland, otherwise he will not be able to take out the money if he is emptied.

Since he came up with the idea of doing things for Zhu Di and getting out of the way in the future battle of Jingjing, Gu Huai naturally has a strict review and self-positioning of himself, as a future person, it is not good for Gu Huai to fight, Zhu Di already has Yao Guangxiao by his side for conspiracy and the like, and Gu Huai is not good at it, doing small business and copying poems naturally can't help Zhu Di's journey to Jingjing, so Gu Huai knows very well that he must do more things on the eve of Zhu Di's army, at least let himself have more trust in Zhu Di on the eve of Jingjing.

made a grenade, and also provoked the confrontation between the palace and the political envoy Si Yamen on the table, Zhu Di still did not see Gu Huai in person, which shows that either Zhu Di has a lot of opinions about what he did, or Zhu Di... Looking forward to more.

Gu Huai smiled and looked up and walked out of the carriage.

Approaching the afternoon, there was a sudden snowflake in the sky, thinking that it should be the last snow before spring, a child chased out of the carriage and horse shop behind him, handed Gu Huai an umbrella, Gu Huai touched the child's head, and nodded to the woman under the eaves, and walked into the snowstorm.

Dressed in white, with a paper umbrella, and snowflakes floating in the sky, if it falls into the painting, this figure is matched with the surrounding long streets and alleys, but it also has a bit of scholarly ancient rhyme, the pedestrians on the street are in a hurry, some shops on the side of the road have begun to close their doors, and the carriage has driven straight from Gu Huai's side, but it has brought up some snow falling from the sky.

At the intersection at the end of the long street, several stalls were also cleaned up, and behind one of the small carts, the woman with an ugly headscarf blinked, looked over this side with some confusion, and noticed the figure walking in the wind and snow.

Gu Huai waved his hand, and a somewhat impressive smile appeared over there.

The cart that is very inconsistent with Li Ziqing's temperament looks like a cake stall, it turns out that after the last bowl of chicken soup, this woman is still flexible and free to live in Beiping City.

That's nice.
