After repeated discussions, the Gu and Li families selected more than a dozen outstanding young juniors to transport grain and grass to the northwest for support, and stayed there by the way.

Some want to join the army, while others use the past to carry out business and cooperate in mines, and they also need their own people to make decisions, and they can't just manage things.

In the past few years, the Northwest Business Road has not been able to recover the money, and it has been given to the Northwest generals, and the power of the steward is too great, and it is also necessary for his own sons and daughters to go over to check whether there is any betrayal of the master, and the network resources of all parties must be reintegrated into their hands.

These many matters are not in charge of things, and there must be a son who can make the decisions.

The Gu and Li families also sent a few elders and uncles who were old and stable and able to make up ideas, and took this opportunity to pick up the connections in the northwest again and hold them in their hands.

Gu Ping and the rest of his sons went to the northwest with him, he was very happy to go to the northwest to join the army, and he also understood the intentions and cooperation of Gu Lei and his wife.

It's a good opportunity, and it's an opportunity for him.

If you can get the attention of the commander of the northwest and get married, the future will not be difficult.

The two sons and daughters who were sent also understood their tasks, if they were in the capital before, such a good thing would not be their turn, but now it is different, and they are naturally very happy to be willing to go to the northwest to have a future.

Boss Li and Gu Lei sent everyone away.

"When I went there, remember to write a letter back, if you don't have enough money, just ask."

Li Yu took almost eighty percent of the family's money away and let them dispose of it flexibly, for fear that they would not have enough money outside.

This time, the grandfather of the Li family and the Gu family in the northwest also had three people follow together, which can be regarded as giving some experience to the younger generations.

"Don't worry, we'll write back when we get there to report our safety."

After sending them away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The grain and medicinal herbs purchased in the summer were sent to the northwest with the ship, and it was up to them to plop around.

"They'll be safe."

Li Yu muttered worriedly.

"There is no need to worry about safety for the time being, the northwest is short of money and food, as long as there is a need for us, we have to protect our people."

Boss Li patted his daughter, comforted her, and told her not to worry too much.

"It's fine. Dad, the Cao Gang can also send some people over to find some opportunities. ”

"Brother Rui, you and Leizi got this thing done, worry about it."

"Done."

"Dad, I asked for a few places in Jiangnan Academy, before the steward opened a shop over there to sell things, donated some money to the academy, and got a chance to face it, I pondered to discuss with you, who to send over?"

Such a rare opportunity was found by Li Yu himself little by little, and it was not easy to waste a lot of hard work and money.

"You have made a great contribution this time, how did you pry open the head of the head of Jiangnan Academy?"

Boss Li was also surprised.

"I donated some money under the banner of yours and my grandfather, I sorted out a handwritten note made by the agency and donated it, and the mountain chief saw that I was sincere, so I agreed, and asked to donate two thousand taels of silver every year, and I agreed."

The opportunity is really rare, Jiangnan produces talents, the level is not the same, such an opportunity cannot be bought with money, people are actually not short of people who send money, it is to pick up the character of the person who sent me money.

"Okay, good girl, this time it's done so well, so that the money Gu and Li families are half of each."

"Done."

It's not that you can't afford it, but you must have rules and regulations to act, and you can't take it for granted and be pretending to be generous.

"Grandpa, this time you pick someone, so as not to say that we have selfish intentions."

"My stupid boy, it's not that Xiucai can't enter Jiangnan Academy, fifteen-year-old must be Xiucai or ten-year-old children must be in the top three, the requirements are high."

Grandpa Gu shook his head and chuckled, there are strict rules in the academy.

"With such high requirements, how many people can we pick out from the two of us?"

"I can't pick out five."

"Then I want eight places, what to do with the rest, it's too much of a loss to give away."

Li Yu frowned.

"Don't worry, go back and let the children of the outer gate go, pick a few children to go, and let Brother Xin and Brother Xu go."

Grandpa Gu wanted to pick a half-grown child to go.

Let's go back and discuss it.

As soon as this news came out in the Gu family, the Gu family was boiling, which was simply too rare.

Being able to study at Jiangnan Academy, the future is basically stable, and the reading atmosphere there is really good.

This time, Grandpa Gu was the main candidate, Brother Xin accounted for one place, and two talented children who were also heroes accounted for two people, and the rest was given to the people who failed to make the list, this person is a child with a surname outside the Gu family, and he is also dependent on the Gu family.

Brother Xu and Xu Yang of the Li family occupy two places, Xu Yang is a good seedling for reading, and he is already the first place in children, Brother Xu is the third place, and he chose two sons from other families.

This time I went to Jiangnan, and the two families also sent their grandparents and uncles to take charge of the business over there, and at the same time, they were also to take care of these children.

After packing his luggage, he took the boat and prepared to leave, Brother Xu was big in the blink of an eye, and now he can't see his previous state, he is very motivated to receive people and things, study and practice martial arts.

The child has grown up, no longer sticks to his sister, and has his own good friends and friends.

"In the past, we must unite, study hard, do not be tainted with bad habits, and supervise and take care of each other."

"Remember, sister, go back, I'll write to you."

Brother Xu shook his hand happily, leaving his relatives and leaving home for the first time, there was no melancholy, only longing and happiness.

"Stinky boy, study hard, or I'll beat you."

Li Yu shouted to the departing ship.

The children waved at her, frowning and grimacing.

"These bad boys ......"

"Let's go."

Gu Lei took his daughter-in-law back home.

After all these things, it is time for winter, and it is almost time for the farm.

Li Yu has been busy for a year, and it is time to rest, so he is busy at home.

This year, His Royal Highness's workshop is doing very well, and it is expected that he will be able to return to see the money next year, and he has also arranged for many refugees and ordinary people to work in it, and it is booming.

It was getting colder and colder, and Li Yu was lazy and didn't want to move.

Gu Lei entered the house and saw that she was dozing off, and couldn't help but tease her with his cold hands.

"Oops, cold, you're back."

Li Yu opened his sleepy eyes.

"Doze off in the daytime, don't sleep too much, you can't sleep at night."

Before it was time to break at noon, Gu Lei smiled and talked to her.

Li Yu yawned, "I don't know what's wrong, I'm asleep sitting here, I'm dozing off for a while." ”

Gu Lei frowned, and raised his voice to call, "Go and see where the house doctor is, please come over." ”

"Yes."

"No, I only had a pulse check a few days ago, and I'm fine."

Li Yu waved his hand and yawned again.

"Let's see if I'm tired and steady."

Gu Lei touched her forehead distressedly, and she didn't have a fever.

The house doctor came over, and Gu Lei got up to greet him, "Doctor Wang, you can show my daughter-in-law, she is not in good spirits for a while, and her face is not very good." ”

"I'll see."

The doctor returned the salute and sat down to catch his breath before checking her pulse.

After a while, he smiled.
