Chapter 81: The Down-and-Out Grain Merchant

"Eat slowly! Look at this temperament on your body, you should look like a person from a wealthy family! How can you eat and gobble up, so you are not afraid of suddenly eating too much and being strangled to death?! ”

Yang Ming doesn't understand, don't those brick families often say that etiquette is something that goes deep into the bone marrow? At this time, you should also be polite and chew slowly! How does it feel more like a demon coming out of hell!

The actions of this group of female thieves to cook destroyed the evil thoughts in the hearts of the few guards in Yang Ming's caravan who were scheming.

Fortunately, I didn't move my hands and feet when I caught the captive just now, otherwise if I was impulsive, I wouldn't know who the victim was, the female hooligan was too terrifying!

"You know what a! Wait until you are hungry for ten days and half a month, and you don't even have grass roots and tree bark to eat, and then talk about cool words! It's really standing and talking without back pain! ”

The little Lori who was the leader replied disdainfully while cooking.

Yang Ming was embarrassed to go back, Lao Tzu watched CCTV's wilderness survival program for several years, how could he be reduced to being starved for more than ten days to survive alone.

"Little sister, what's your name?!"

Yang Ming's attitude was a little unfriendly, and Lin Wan'er squatted down for fear of self-defeating and asked Xiao Loli who was cooking.

"Little sister?! I don't think you're any older than me! ”

Little Lori heard Lin Wan'er call her little sister, and stood up after putting down her rice bowl.

The naΓ―ve face can't guess the age, just like a junior high school student, who is almost more than one meter five meters tall, and it is estimated that he can reach Lin Wan'er's chin by wearing cloth boots.

"I'm eighteen years old!"

Lin Wan'er is also childlike, just like a doll competition in kindergarten, and her age is revealed all of a sudden.

Little Lori smiled, nodded with satisfaction, and said:

"I'm eighteen years old, too, but I was born at the beginning of the year and must be older than you, so you have to call me sister. Sister, my surname is Liang, and I'm from Jiangnan! ”

Lin Wan'er was also a little unconvinced, stood up, looked down at Xiao Lori and said:

"I was also born at the beginning of the year, I am taller than you, so I will call you little sister!"

Yang Ming didn't want to waste time, so he kicked Xiao Lori's buttocks, and asked viciously:

"Don't talk about all this uselessness, what are you doing here from Jiangnan?! Why block the road? If you don't recruit you from the truth, I'll reward you to my family's two-meter-plus guard! ”

Ding Da Niu was playing with a melon hammer not far away, and as soon as he heard that Yang Ming was giving benefits, he immediately picked up the hammer and rushed over, standing in front of Xiao Lori stupidly and looking up and down.

"You're so nice! I haven't finished talking yet, what are you doing here! I usually call you to work, but I haven't seen you so active! ”

The speed of the big cow's reaction made everyone a little speechless!

When Xiao Lori was looked at by Ding Da Niu, she was not shy, but turned around generously, and asked Da Niu with a wink and a smile:

"How?! Am I good-looking?! ”

Da Niu blushed, nodded and whispered:

"Good-looking, good-looking, Miss Liang is so good-looking!"

Yang Ming was very impatient, raised his legs, and was just about to kick this little Lori again, when he was knocked away by Lin Wan'er's set of falling Ying Divine Palms!

"Filthy! People are still girls, don't kick people's asses at every turn! ”

Ding Daniu saw Lin Wan'er helping, and hurriedly echoed:

"That's it, my uncle is too shameless! Miss Liang is still a virgin, and she is a hooligan when she moves her hands and feet! ”

Yang Ming: 。。。。。。

Lin Wan'er didn't waste any time, turned to little Lori and asked:

"Miss Liang, please tell me a little bit about what happened to you! Otherwise, I'm afraid that my husband will make unexpected decisions! ”

Little Lori burped, wiped her sleeve to her lips and said:

"We are a grain merchant from Jiangnan to Yanzhou City half a year ago, a few months ago, my father saw the opportunity to transport a large amount of grain from the south to the north to sell at a high price, but I didn't expect to be dumbfounded when the grain arrived."

"The people of Yanzhou City can't afford to buy high-priced grain at all, so they can only choose to use their fields as collateral in exchange for grain. Grain for land was originally a matter of great profits, and when my father wanted to continue to expand the results of the war, it was rumored that the governor of Youzhou and the assassin of Yanzhou rebelled. ”

People everywhere were panicked, so my father took care of everything and prepared to take us back to Jiangnan overnight! I didn't expect to be intercepted by the rebels, and I stopped and stopped along the way, and when I arrived near Wuhui Mountain, only my group of female guards remained! ”

Yang Ming got up from the ground, patted the dirt clean, ignored Lin Wan'er's burning eyes, stared at Xiao Lori viciously, and threatened:

"Humph! Just you, a stinky little kid, where are there so many female guards, and if you don't recruit Lao Tzu from the truth, see if I will strip you all naked and hang you in Wuhui Mountain. ”

Little Lori shrugged her shoulders and spread her hands, and replied helplessly:

"My father is Liang Dewei, the second head of the Liang family in Suzhou City, and my mother is from Yangzhou, I am a concubine, and my family status is not high, but with my father's favor to my mother, I also made up a women's army of dozens of people."

Yang Ming touched his chin, he had heard of the Liang clan in Suzhou City. That family is comparable to the Zhao family in Shandong, they are all engaged in grain trading, but why would the Liang family travel thousands of miles to let the second master run to Yanzhou City to create an ancestor!

"What about your father?! All captured by the rebels?! ”

Little Lori's face turned red, she became embarrassed, and kept kicking the gravel on the ground with her foot:

"In fact, we left two groups of people behind, and the nursing home at home is the first line of defense, and we are the second line of defense. According to the itinerary, it is estimated that the father and mother have almost arrived in Suzhou at this time. ”

Lin Wan'er was also confused, and couldn't help but ask:

"Now that you have planned the route of retreat, why don't you flee south, but go west, here is almost to the boundary of Daizhou!"

Little Lori got angry when she heard this, and replied with a scolding grin:

"Originally, in order to protect us, my father discussed with the clansmen and left most of the materials in the Yanzhou mansion, so that the assassin would not have to hunt us down if he got the supplies! Just send some shrimp soldiers and crabs to make a show behind us and drive us out of the Yanzhou boundary. ”

"Who would have thought that halfway through a group of deserters, they were chased and killed by a large group of rebels with an unconscious woman. In order to get rid of the entanglement of the rebels, they actually did not talk about martial virtues, and led the rebels to our ranks. ”

"Later, in the scuffle, our few carriages were robbed by the deserters, and they fled in the direction of Luxian. And we had no carriage, so we had to be driven all the way and fled to the vicinity of Wuhui Mountain... ”

Yang Ming and Lin Wan'er glanced at each other and almost burst out laughing. The two of them have a heart, and when Little Lori tells a rough idea, they have already guessed who the gang of deserters is!

"Maybe that group of people is not a deserter, but a secret agent secretly sent by the emperor to monitor Yanzhou City, they may not know that you are being hunted down, or maybe they are in a hurry to treat the unconscious woman, so they made this decision!"

Now that Zhong Kai has been taken under the command of her husband, Lin Wan'er can only open her eyes and talk nonsense, powerlessly defending him.

"I don't care, our Liang family killed eighty guards for him, Miss Ben was chased by the rebels for hundreds of miles, and ate more than ten days of grass root bark, no matter what his situation is, I can't swallow this breath!"

Little Lori waved her little fist, and she wanted to tear Zhong Kai alive!

Yang Ming's face twitched, this matter is indeed quite big, if it were him, he would never forgive. It's just that Zhong Kai is the only general in his hands at present, and it's too late to take care of him, how could he hand over Zhong Kai for a little Lori he didn't know.

Otherwise, go back and let Zhong Kai accept this chick, so as not to make a fuss when you arrive in Yangjiabao in the future.

Little Lori secretly rejoiced that she could exaggerate the data a little bit, and she could turn the young couple in front of her around.

It is true that many family guards died because of the deserters, but the number of casualties was only about 20, and the rest were scattered as birds and beasts.

The mother's army under his command was also defeated by the rebels in one blow, and he was afraid of the oppressive atmosphere on the battlefield, so he fled blindly for hundreds of kilometers without distinguishing between the southeast and the northwest with his bare feet.

At that time, the rebels did not pursue them at all!

The most important thing is to eat more than ten days of grass root bark, with her Liang girl's violent temper, how can she eat a meal of grass root bark! This canyon is all rocks, right?

Those who were half starving to death were actually refugees who were taken in halfway. Her own group of women's soldiers have only been out of food for three days, and she, the master, has only really been out of food since yesterday.

"Then why don't you go back to Suzhou City, and keep staying in Wuhui Mountain. There are mountains and valleys here, and there are no supplies, and it is at the border of the state and county, which is relatively chaotic... ”

Lori: Wow.

"We are southerners, and we are not familiar with the terrain here, so people who fled did not dare to approach us when they saw us. When we encountered a powerful caravan, we didn't dare to rush forward, so we went around like this for several days, and we couldn't go out... ”

Yang Ming: 。。。。。。

In this way, Da Niu's idea is not wrong. This Yang caravan was dressed in a variety of clothes, and if there were no carriages and goods, it would indeed be no different from other refugees.

Yang Ming glanced at the Women's Army, they couldn't defeat the rebels in Yanzhou, and their combat effectiveness might not be strong, but the momentum of a group of people with the same clothes and equipment was different, at least they could make the refugees flee.

No wonder we were able to harvest so many refugees along the way, it turned out that my unintentional move was the wisest, taking Liu Huangshu's people-friendly route.

"Why don't you go back to Daizhou with us first! It just so happens that we are short of grain, so you can transport the grain from Suzhou City to us at that time, as long as the price is not outrageous, I will take as much as I want! ”

Yang Ming was also afraid that Xiao Jin would not have time to go to Goguryeo to loot at this time, and the Liang family in Suzhou City would provide food, which would be considered an extra guarantee.

"Wow! But what you're saying is true?! Our Liang family has enough food and grass, I'm afraid you won't be able to do so much alone! What's more, the world is not peaceful now, if the son wants so much food, the price is not the father alone! However, the price of old grain is slightly lower! ”

As soon as Xiao Lori heard that Yang Ming needed food, and she was also a big customer, the big order in front of her made her attitude immediately change three hundred and sixty degrees.

"Yang Ming, the eldest son of the Yang family in Xia Hongnong, his father is the guerrilla general Yang Xiong, I think with the industry of Daizhou and the reputation of my father, it should not be difficult to buy a large amount of grain, right?!"

Yang Ming was a little speechless, he had traveled to the Tang Dynasty for so long, and he hadn't been able to make a name for himself, every time he wanted to do something big, he still had to use the name of Hongnong Yang in the Li Yuan era.

I just don't know that the group of wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan still recognize the title given by Li Yuan.
