"It's the same as you think," taking the tea handed over by Li Ziqing, Gu Huai nodded and said, "In a sense, I am indeed a thief now, the heinous kind." ”

There was no need to guard the city gate, in fact, after Zhu Di led the cavalry to gouge through Song Zhong's Chinese army, the war outside the city was already a foregone conclusion.

The next most troublesome thing is how to deal with the tens of thousands of soldiers brought by Song Zhong - if left unchecked, the soldiers will plague the people near Beiping, and maybe they will be collected by the imperial army that arrives later and become a new force in the next confrontation between the two armies; But if you want to eat these tens of thousands of foot soldiers, it will be a big trouble.

You must know that there are tens of thousands of people, tens of thousands of people with their own thoughts, even if tens of thousands of pigs are placed outside Beiping, it is not easy to catch them, not to mention that some of these soldiers want to escape, some want to fight, some refuse to rebel, and some just want to go home?

But these should be handed over to Zhu Di and Dao Yan to have a headache... Gu Huai had something else to do.

In fact, when the curtain came down on this first official war, he almost fell down from the city wall as soon as his heartstrings were loosened, and he really didn't sleep well in the past few days, starting from the palace being surrounded and hurriedly raising troops, to capturing all the gates of Beiping, and then to maintaining order in the city with Daoyan, pacifying the people, and finding out the families of those deserters who made Song Zhong's lies self-defeating.

The little maid at home and her own shopkeeper Miss Qing must be very worried, after all, they don't know what this is about, so when the military formation outside the city collapsed, and the soldiers in the city began to go out of the city to chase and kill, Gu Huai turned around and went back to his small shop.

After confirming that his young master was really rebelling, the little maid on the other side of the table opened her mouth, and she couldn't understand that the uncle who woke up that night was more and more like a different person, broke away from the Song Mansion, and now he is still rebelling with Yan Wangye - what has happened in the past six months is like a dream, and I don't think about it when the days are dull, but now I look back and find some strange places.

She had a lot of things she wanted to ask, but she didn't know where to start.

On the contrary, Li Ziqing and Fu Yun on the opposite side are much easier to accept... After all, from the very beginning, they felt that Gu Gongzi was not an ordinary person.

The expression on the little girl's face was very worried and melancholy, and Li Ziqing patted her hand gently: "Childe... What are you going to do next? ”

It's kind of a no-brainer... Now that you have followed King Yan to raise troops, what else can you do next? can only go all the way to the black, either King Yan ascends the throne and follows the chicken dog to heaven, or King Yan is defeated and follows him to the execution ground.

It can be seen that Li Ziqing's mood is also a little chaotic, Gu Huai smiled: "Beiping City has been defeated, and the next thing is naturally to clean up the land of Youyan, Xuanfu in the north, Yongping in the east... These places had to settle down in the shortest possible time in order to block the imperial army that crossed the Yellow River. ”

He took a sip of tea, and his exhaustion couldn't stop coming up: "From today onwards, the city ban in Beiping City will be lifted, and the lives of the people will gradually return to normal... Naturally, the store will continue to open, but the expansion speed of the branch may be affected. ”

But it's also a good thing... King Yan was fighting in front, and the order of the city was naturally in ruins, and it was much more time-saving to open a branch at this time.

I could see that the little girl on the other side was still in a trance, and I was afraid that it would take some time to accept these facts, but Li Ziqing, who was in charge of the shop, was led to the branch by Gu Huai, and thought about it.

Thinking about the guards arranged around the shop, nothing should happen to the shop... Gu Huai stood up, ready to go to another place before leaving:

"I'm going to go to the Gooling."

……

Before entering the gate of Goolan Gate, I saw many children running and jumping on the side of the road, these children used to be in the streets and alleys, and the city was chaotic, but they made a lot of benefits, and no one would come out to drive them away at this time, these children also seemed to have watched the play in Goolan and shouted the lines in the play, and saw Gu Huai in a green shirt walking along the alley, and the eyes of a half-old child lit up and slowly leaned over.

Children who beg for a living in the streets and alleys have to have one or two skills, either fierce enough or fast, but these half-grown children rely on a pair of dexterous hands, and can often unconsciously go through other people's money bags - of course, they still need something to attract the attention of others, such as pretending to walk unsteadily.

Such scholars are often the best to steal, even if they are discovered, they will not do those bitter man-like chasing behaviors, and the rest of the children are not surprised, but are always ready to cover for the children who are ready.

It's closer.. Bumped lightly, the scholar in the green shirt smiled gently, helped the child up, and entered the hook bar without looking back, and the child who was on the hand patted his butt and stood up, revealing the trace of silver in his palm.

The rest of the children cheered... It's enough for a good meal.

Gu Huai, who walked into the hook bar, was not in a hurry to find Xiaoyu's traces, and there was a small note in his hand, which he swept roughly, a little surprised, but then gently tore it and put it into his sleeve.

It turned out to be this thing... It doesn't matter, Nuohai is a little too careful, and I have to ask for his opinion, but it also shows the obsession in Nuohai's heart.

As long as he doesn't make a sound, Nuohai naturally knows what to do.

The guys in the hook bar are almost scattered, and only a few people are cleaning sporadically, and naturally no people will have the heart to go to the hook bar to watch the play at this time, presumably there will be no business in the next few days.

But the newspapers can't be stopped... I'm afraid that I don't have much time to write in the future, maybe I can find a few down-and-out people to run the newspaper, and in this kind of war, the newspaper with exclusive news will develop very quickly.

Unexpectedly, I saw a more homely smoke and ink girl in the hook bar... The cigarette girl who used to always squat at home looked a little worried, and it seemed that the news of the war in Beiping also made her have to come forward to appease the people in the hook bar, her eyes were still a little bad, and she didn't pay attention to Gu Huai who walked behind her, and her voice was still soft and weak:

“... Suspend business for a few days first, this month's salary will be paid first, it's very chaotic outside, don't go out first, wait for two days..."

Gu Huai patted her on the shoulder:

"The more time it gets, the greater the role of the hook fence, don't be in a hurry to close the door, Beiping can't be in chaos."

"It's time to open a branch."
