Chapter 166: The Gentleman on the Beam
"Not for now." Feng Nineteen said, "I want to confirm something. ”
Knowing that she shouldn't be able to say it, Juka didn't ask much, and quickly assigned the person.
He stayed with the fourth child and asked the young man to pull the cart back with the seventh child.
Boy: "......"
The boy was not very happy: "I want to follow the boss." ”
The cart is tired, and there are things on it, it must be tired, but it is still comfortable to ride in the carriage.
Juka glanced at him: "What can you do if you stay?"
The boy said proudly: "I can run errands." ”
“……”
Juka directly decided to let him go back, which is irrefutable.
After eating, the young man and Lao Qi went back with a cart to eat - as long as it was meat.
For this, Feng Shijiu has a different opinion: "The mountains and forests are so big, you can raise some things, chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, you can just raise them freely, maybe the taste is better." ”
A few people hesitated, and the young man was even more shocked: "This is not good, isn't this the same as the wild one, we don't know how to hunt." ”
Feng Nineteen said, "Then you are quite stupid." ”
Several people were depressed.
But Feng Jiu still made a decision, after all, they didn't know how to hunt, but she would.
So twelve more piglets were added to the cart, which happened to be a litter.
Boy: "......" is so heavy, I knew I wouldn't come.
In the afternoon, Feng Shijiu went to the pharmacy, carried a bunch of medicines, and then went to the cloth village to buy a bunch of cloth.
A pile of cloth that seemed to several people that she would never be able to wear out.
Juka stopped talking: "Boss, if you like to make clothes, we can come back next time, you don't have to buy so many ...... at once"
Feng Jiu didn't explain: "I'm useful." ”
Juka couldn't think of any use for her other than making clothes.
But the boss's affairs do not allow him to ignore his beak.
Finally, it was dark and the shops on the street were closed, and the lights were on.
Maybe it's because there is no business, the grain shop was closed earlier, and by this time, even the smell of rice has been transmitted.
Then Juka and the fourth child watched their boss leave the next sentence and go back, and then disappeared under their noses.
Gone!!
Juka and Lao Qi glanced at each other, and saw the look of shock in each other's eyes with satisfaction.
This kind of kung fu is really not like what is available in the world.
.
Behind the grain shop there is not only a dwelling, but also a granary.
I found the granary very smoothly, and after a few fumbling with my fingers on the lock, I opened it.
He pulled out the fire fold and walked inside, came out a moment later, and locked the door again.
Next, one by one, I visited the granaries of several grain stores.
"Most of their food is gone." The remaining half is piled up with two granaries, which is enough to eat, but relying on the grain of these houses, it is even more difficult to feed the people of a county.
The lights were already out outside, and Juka sat in the carriage, huddled together with Lao Qi to keep each other warm, but he didn't dare to touch the quilt on the car.
They didn't bathe very often, and they were afraid of getting the quilt dirty and getting beaten up.
Dad, it was a cold night.
The curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted, and a figure approached, and the two were startled and almost hugged each other.
"It's me." Feng Nineteen bent in and lit the candle, "Why don't you light the lamp." ”
Juka breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his hands together and said, "It's okay for us to stay, what a waste of lighting the lamp." ”
Feng Jiu was a little speechless, but didn't say anything, and sat opposite the two.
Seeing that the cold legs of the two of them were shaking, they threw the quilt over and asked, "Have a large number of people left Luozhou recently?" ”
"The kind that presses things."
"Nope." Juka confirmed, "We were at the bottom of the mountain every day, and we didn't see anyone going out. ”
And they also escorted a lot of things, and if there were, they would definitely have to fight for it.
Feng Nineteen frowned, could it be that they left at night?
Or is it that I misjudged that these grain stores do not have much stock in themselves?
But she couldn't say it, she had searched the empty rooms, and several of them were obviously freshly cleaned, and the floors were clean, even the walls had been wiped clean, unlike the outermost room, which she knew had been empty for a long time.
So...... Still, the grain was removed.
Unconsciously pinching his fingers, he kept making conjectures in his heart, and then kept denying them.
In the end, it was concluded that it was either transported away overnight, so the people in Wuyunzhai did not notice it; Either it was not transported at all, and the grain was still in the city, waiting for the day when the army would come and it would be just in time to be taken.
Feng Jiu believed that it was the latter.
"You said before that the man who swallowed your field is surnamed Zhou?" Feng Jiu suddenly raised his head, "Is the Zhou family's power very famous here?" ”
The two of them didn't react to what they said to themselves at the first time, and they were stunned for a moment.
Juka was the first to react, nodded and said, "It is indeed surnamed Zhou, and the housekeeper's surname is Zhou, and he said that his main family is also surnamed Zhou." ”
In fact, the housekeeper was not ostentatious, he missed his mouth once, but he still remembered it to death.
But on the question of power...... Juka scratched his head and said a little embarrassed, "We don't know this either, I only know that there is a Zhou Mansion in the east of the city, which is quite large, and the gate is very magnificent." ”
That seems to be a good chance that it has something to do with them.
The curtain was lifted again, and Feng Nineteen: "I'll go out." ”
The words fell, and with a gust of wind, the curtain of the door fell, and the figure disappeared again.
The two of them hugged the quilt and began to get sleepy.
And Feng Nineteen, who got out of the carriage, regretted it a little after jumping a few times.
Without him, she forgot to ask the house number, and she believed that Juka must have remembered this clearly.
However, it is also difficult to go back, so it is better to run directly.
Anyway, Qinan County is not very big, if the Zhou Mansion is really big, it is easy to find.
A quarter of an hour later, in front of the door of Zhou's house, where the door was closed, there was an additional figure, and only a thin shadow could be seen in the dark night, but no outline of the face could be seen.
Confirming that Zhou Zhai was not wrong, he turned into it and went straight to the light.
There are a lot of lights in the house, excluding the places where it is obvious that the people live, and there are two more.
It is difficult to selectively, so I simply take out the copper plate.
After a few moments, she circled to the left and sneaked in from the left.
On the rooftop, it's one of the best places to eavesdrop at any given time.
It landed lightly on the roof, only the sound of the wind carried it, and it did not bring any movement when it fell.
Find the place where the sound came from and quietly lift the tiles.
He looked down with a scowling face.
There was a person in the room, her face couldn't be seen clearly, but it seemed to be a young man in his thirties, writing something on his desk, but unfortunately the distance was a little far away, and she couldn't see it clearly.
Let's take a look later.
As soon as the idea fell, there was a knock on the door, but after a while, a thinly dressed woman came with soup and looked concerned: "Master, it's late at night, I know that you haven't slept yet, and the concubine has brought you some tonic soup." ”
Covering the letter with something, Master Zhou turned his head and said, "You have worked hard." ”
The woman came up, put the soup on the table, sat directly on his lap, and fed him the soup.
The aroma came, and Feng Shijiu's nose moved, this soup ......
