Chapter 165: Zheng Hu arrives

After applying the medicine, the doctors dispersed.

Xu Da also sent someone to send the silver money, looking at the silver taels on the table, Zheng Xiong didn't seem to be so painful.

Xu Da stayed for two days, then returned to the court, took the army with him, and left the wounded soldiers.

Zheng Xiong followed these wounded soldiers to recuperate, and the wailing in the barracks had Zheng Xiong's share.

Most of the requisitioned servants have also left, leaving some to be responsible for the transfer of grain and grass in Yanmen.

After all, after fighting with Lin, the supply of the garrison army is still indispensable.

There were many fewer people all of a sudden, and Yanmen suddenly became much deserted, and the scene of the crowds in the past was no longer there.

However, there were gains and losses, and there were many more merchants who came here, and now there was a political envoy in Helin, and the merchants who rushed to trade outside the customs began to gather here.

Although the prairie has not yet been completely stabilized, there is still a wandering Yuan army, but as long as there are benefits, even if it is a head-killing business, there are still people to do it.

It's okay now, at least the Yuan army has been hit so badly that it doesn't dare to provoke again in a short time, and it won't do it until it's sure, and He Lin still has a large number of seized materials waiting to be sold.

The dangerous place on the road is in the wandering Yuan army, and the randomness is large, depending on who will be unlucky.

The purpose of the assembled caravan is to wait for enough men to set off together and take care of each other.

In general, at this moment, Yanmen is no longer crowded, but there is a market fireworks, which is the atmosphere of a city.

The pressure on the grassland is gone, and Yanmen is no longer a bridgehead along the Great Wall ready to defend against the enemy.

Zhang Huaiyuan, as the promotion of Yanmen, has a lot less pressure, and every day he sends some soldiers and horses to inspect the surroundings, and at the same time is responsible for the transfer of materials and the customs clearance of merchants.

During this period, I also came to visit Zheng Xiong a few times, asked for warmth, and left some small gifts.

Zheng Xiong's tragic situation made the attitude of Yanmen officials much better, and it was obvious that Zheng Xiong's beating also played a role in killing chickens and monkeys.

On the fifth day of the eighth month, Zheng Xiong, who was recuperating from his injuries, dragged his still somewhat painful buttocks and got up from the bed and came to the city wall to lead people.

Since learning the news that Zheng Xiong was preparing to marry, his father Zheng Qi sent Zheng Xiong's boss Zheng Hu to replace his own family.

Pick out some of the cloth and brocade rewarded by Lao Zhu, purchase a batch of materials, and hand them over to Zheng Hu to rush to Yanmen with the silver money.

There is no official protection, Zheng Hu finally arrived at Yanmen after ups and downs, when he saw Zheng Xiong's moment, Zheng Hu was relieved, relieved, and hugged Zheng Xiong to tell his experience.

"Second brother, you don't know, how did I get here all the way, it's too bitter!"

glanced sideways at Zheng Hu's back, and several attendants were the same as Zheng Hu, unkempt, as if they were called flowers.

"Wait, big brother, what are you doing here, and what's going on with you, you have become like this."

"All in all, in short, can the second child get something to eat first, I haven't eaten a meal in the past few days."

"Oh, come with me!"

Walking was still a little unnatural, Zheng Xiong twisted his ass and said to the soldiers guarding the city.

"I'm Zheng Xiong, this is my eldest brother, I don't know how it became like this, you see if you can be accommodating without a way."

Zheng Xiong has been here for a few months, and the soldiers guarding the city have long been familiar with it, and when they heard Zheng Xiong's question, they hurriedly replied.

"The little ones didn't mean to make things difficult, but they couldn't identify them, and they said that they were relatives and friends of adults, so they had to ask adults to verify."

"Since it's a relative and friend of an adult, please take care of it."

They are all their own people, and they are still very good at talking, but in a word, for ordinary people, a set of cumbersome verification is essential, and they may not be able to get in.

After thanking him, Zheng Xiong led a few people into the city.

I asked as I walked, but several people were obviously absent-minded, and their steps were vain, and they were in a trance, and they couldn't ask for any useful information for a long time.

I simply didn't ask, found a restaurant, and ordered a few things to eat.

The moment the food was served, Zheng Hu and the others were in good spirits, holding their rice bowls and feasting happily, like starving ghosts reincarnated, and they didn't care about talking to Zheng Xiong.

The wind swept away, several bowls of rice were served, and the dishes were finished, and a few people were still unsatisfied.

Zheng Hu also said to Zheng Xiong.

"Second child, if you don't have enough to eat, let's have another table."

"I can't eat it, it's not good for you to eat it again, that's it, I'll talk about it in the evening, you tell me what's going on with you first, it's like this."

Licking his lips, Zheng Hu seemed to be still reminiscing about what he had just eaten, since Zheng Xiong said that it was not good to eat too much now, he definitely couldn't eat more, but his stomach was a little uncomfortable.

"It's a long story, I can't finish it for three days and three nights, let me take my time."

"Long story short, what the hell is going on."

Seeing that Zheng Hu still wanted to say slowly one by one, Zheng Xiong didn't give him a chance.

His experience is too rich to say a sentence or two, but since Zheng Xiong asked for it, he told the story concisely.

"Didn't you find a daughter-in-law in Yanmen here and prepare to get married, so our father asked me to bring the dowry and money."

looked at Zheng Hu and a few of his little followers, and before Zheng Hu finished speaking, Zheng Xiong interrupted Zheng Hu's words,

"Wait, you brought the dowry and the money, but what about the things?"

Zheng Hu rubbed his hands and said with some embarrassment.

"This has to mention my experience, that day when I went to Gunzhou, I met a group of strongmen on the road, they blocked the road and set up a card, stopped us, and had to leave the money to buy the road, but the theory was not enough, so I had to give it to them."

"After paying the road money, there will always be leftover!"

"No, it's too expensive to buy a road."

"Well, you've been robbed!"

Looking at Zheng Xiong's gaze, Zheng Hu lowered his head and said curtly.

"That path is really easy to walk, and you can see that they are attentive."

Zheng Hu was still insisting on his last stubbornness, and Zheng Xiong replied helplessly.

"Okay, the money is all used to buy roads, how did you get here?"

"Along the way, I met some people who like to get some food for people, and occasionally give a little money, so I asked, and the effect is okay, but it is too little, not enough for us to eat and drink."

"Asking for food?"

"Well, it's not a meal, it's a loan, a penny or two, as long as you pay it back, it doesn't count as a request."

Well, it makes sense, that is, I am skeptical about Zheng Hu's memory.

"Okay, so you don't have anything, just run over and go back?"

"It's okay, it's just that my father called me over, I'm here to help you, the money is gone, this eldest brother is the father, it's good to take care of you one or two."

Hey, that's a good point, I'm afraid I won't have the face to go back, so I'll come over.

But in the end, his eldest brother, although he brought a few mouths over, is still somewhat useful, so that he can be an elder and have a more sense of ceremony.

"Forget it, let's go, find you a place to stay."

Fortunately, I borrowed money, otherwise I would have to do it like this, and my family affairs would have to be ruined.

led a few people to find an inn, arranged a few people, and washed them first, it smelled too bad.
