Chapter 14: Preparing for a Counteroffensive
Nearly three hundred taels more than expected. It seems that it is because of the reason why the county lord Song Ningxue came forward.
He signed, returned the notebook, and said to Tie Ying in front of him with a smile on his face:
"Tie Zhutou is polite, please trouble Tie Zhutou to run, it's really unpleasant, Tie Zhutou might as well go back to the village with me for a cup of tea! Take a break. ”
"Mr. Jiang is polite, I have official business, I won't go for the time being, and when he has a chance in the future, he will be the east, please Mr. Jiang, you must appreciate the light."
Tie Ying bowed to Jiang Chao.
At the same time, he asked the person behind him to deliver the package containing the silver taels.
Jiang Chao was not polite, took the silver tael, and also arched his hand, he asked the people of the village protection team to help carry the body onto the carriage sent by the county government.
Watching the catcher and the people pull the carriage away, the silver-armored female guard who was waiting on the side came over.
Although Song Ningxue left, she left a few female guards waiting here.
"Song Xiaoya has seen Mr. Jiang, and the county lord asked me to tell you that she will deliver what you need before noon tomorrow. She asked the six of us to stay and do as she was told. ”
The beautiful female guard bowed to Jiang Chao, with a look of adoration in her eyes.
Jiang Chao glanced at the female guard and nodded slightly.
She looked delicate, and from her every move, Jiang Chao could feel the explosive power in her.
The strength of the girl in front of her should be almost the same as that of the bandit and the evil tiger. The remaining six girls are not weak.
At least, the sum of the people in the village protection team is estimated to be not enough for these six girls.
These guards under Song Ningxue should have been trained since childhood.
Even Song Ningxue's own strength is not weak, and it may even be stronger than Song Xiaoya in front of her.
"Well, then everyone will follow me into the village! Ah Sheng, you go to the place where Uncle Ming is going to live, and say that there are six female guests who are going to live in the village today. ”
Jiang Chao nodded to Song Xiaoya and the others, and beckoned Ah Sheng to find the village chief.
His house was too simple to accommodate six female guards. I had to let the village chief figure it out.
After returning to the village with everyone, looking at Jiang Chao's simple thatched house, Song Xiaoya's eyes were full of surprise.
Looking at the villagers who were working in full swing, their eyes were full of doubts.
Jiang Chao didn't explain anything more to them, since Song Ningxue sent him six helpers, there was no need to use it in vain.
He led the village guards to cut down a lot of bamboo, and the next thing was to make a simple trebuchet.
Since you are preparing to capture Maoer Mountain, you still have to do the preparations that need to be made.
There are young men and female guards from the village protection team to help. At dusk, Jiang Chao made six improvised trebuchets.
In order to prevent the bandits from attacking at night, he had the trebuchet moved to the entrance of the village. Half of the village guards were sent to guard the village entrance at night.
If, at night, the bandits attack, the stones thrown by the six trebuchets will definitely hit the bandits.
Song Xiaoya looked at the assembled six throwing stones, and looked at Jiang Chao's gaze even more adoringly.
arranged Song Xiaoya's residence and asked them to send them food. Jiang Chao returned home.
The women who had worked during the day had left. Su Xiaoxiao sat at the door. stared at the fence gate in front of him.
When she saw Jiang Chao appear, she stood up instantly, her eyes full of joy. The worry in the bottom of his eyes disappeared.
"Ownership...... Yes, you haven't eaten it yet, I left you a steamed bun and put it in the pot, it's still hot, and there are vegetables! You wash your hands first, and I'll take it out for you. ”
She greeted Jiang Chao and said with a smile on her face.
She was much less restrained and fearful in front of Jiang Chao. He also spoke enthusiastically.
"Brother, sister, in order to wait for you, I didn't eat myself, and Xiaocao was also hungry! My brother is back, is the grass ready to eat! ”
At this time, Su Xiaocao on the side walked over.
She hugged Jiang Chao's legs, looked up at him innocently, and there was a hint of longing in her eyes. The small mouth is flat, as if he is a little aggrieved.
There was a gurgling sound in her stomach.
Jiang Chao hugged her in distress and stroked her head.
Su Xiaoxiao was afraid that Jiang Chao would be angry, so she didn't dare to eat first.
"Fool, in the future, if I come back late for something, you and Xiaocao eat first, don't wait for me, you and Xiaocao are now in the recovery period, and it is also when they are growing their bodies, so it's not good to be hungry."
Jiang Chao glanced at Su Xiaoxiao with some reproach.
Although it was a blaming tone, Su Xiaoxiao was not afraid this time, just nodded with tears in her eyes, and then smiled.
Laughing with tears made her look pitiful.
"Let's go...... Xiaocao, let's go eat, hungry Xiaocao, my brother is going to feel distressed! Jiang Chao walked to the table with Xiaocao in his arms.
"Brother, will you be as good to Xiaocao as you are now!"
Tears welled up in Su Xiaocao's eyes at this time. She looked at Jiang Chao cautiously.
The warmth that Jiang Chao gave her at this time made her like it very much. Thinking of Jiang Chao beating her before, she was afraid that she would lose this warmth.
"Of course it's good for you! Silly girl, in the future, my brother will not only be good to you, but also to your sister. Because, now you are my brother's only relative. ”
Jiang Chao stroked Su Xiaocao's head, and his voice was serious and cautious.
After he came to this world, there were really only sisters in front of him, these two relatives.
In his previous life, he was lonely and helpless, and in this life he had two relatives. Even if he only got along for a few days, he cherished it extraordinarily!
After eating, Jiang Chao helped Su Xiaoxiao put away the dishes and chopsticks, and then taught the two sisters to read and write, as well as arithmetic.
At the same time, he also handed over all the more than 1,000 taels of silver he got during the day to Su Xiaoxiao. However, he used almost a hundred taels in this small medium.
The people of the village protection team gave three taels of silver for their hard work.
Although, the villagers did not play much of a role in the battle.
But if you want them to be loyal in the future, the benefits that should be shared are still indispensable, and he eats meat by himself, so he has to give people some soup.
With money, the villagers will be able to work for you.
The villagers of the mountain villages, after a year of hard work, may not be able to earn three taels of silver.
The villagers who got the silver were exactly like being beaten with chicken blood.
Now if Jiang Chao said that if they were to fight the bandits with him, it was estimated that no one would back down.
After an hour of teaching, Jiang Chao let the two sisters digest and review on their own, and he returned to his own bed and sat down cross-legged.
Meditation and nourishment of qi, this body needs to be well refined, and the first step is to meditate and nourish qi.
When the spirit and spirit are at their best, they will begin to practice boxing.
Use boxing to refine the limbs of the body. Raise your strength.
With the method of cultivation that he understands now, his future achievements will definitely be above those of his previous lives.
The two sisters studied seriously and did not disturb Jiang Chao. Don't dare to disturb Jiang Chao.
