After listening to Shi Jiu's words, Ripple felt that this Qin Cha was not easy to do, and the trip was so low-key, if it weren't for her as a tasker, it would be really cool.

He didn't want to go to Haoyuan City alone like this, and in order to lure him out alone, his servant said that the county commander of Haoyuan City had sent him silver through his relatives at home, and wanted him to provide him with the whereabouts and route of the Qincha, and the county order could prepare in advance, so as to confuse him.

In order to convince Yu Junyu, the servant deliberately took out two gold bars, and that Yu Junyu was fooled, so he took the servant and the coachman to Haoyuan City quietly, which gave the other party a chance. ”

Shi Jiu explained with words, after all, no one who can sit in the position of Qincha is not stupid.

"Okay! As long as Yu Junyu is a good official for the people, it will not be in vain for me to help him. ”

"Rest assured, now that Haoyuan City has begun to receive the victims, and the relief grain from Huzhou is also on the way to be delivered, the situation should improve."

After Shi Jiu reported the situation here, he continued to remain silent.

Ripple and his party drove for five days, and when they only had a little dry food left, they finally saw Huangshi City, the outermost city of Huangzhou Prefecture, which was rich in stones, hence the name.

When the juniors saw the city from afar, they all cheered for a while, they seemed very happy, and finally they were able to enter the city again, after they left the boundary of Liangzhou, this road was really more and more desolate, fortunately, they did not encounter the disaster victims, nor did they encounter the roadblock, they all knew that they were poor here, and they couldn't grab anything, but let the Zhang family of more than 20 people go to Huangshi City smoothly.

The cost of entering the city was one copper plate per person, and children under the age of five were exempted, and the group took out fourteen copper plates and entered the city.

The first thing I did after entering the city was to find an inn to stay in, and everyone could rest in peace for a night.

They took a shower and changed into clean clothes, and then they didn't look like people who had fled the famine, and the next day they all slept until three o'clock in the morning, and woke up hungry.

The Zhang family almost wrapped up this small inn, and used the inn's stove to make their own meals, and the pimple soup was paired with the pickles presented by the inn.

Zhang Jun and Zhang Cheng took a few small ones to buy some food, the food they brought out was exhausted, and the ladies washed and sewed in the inn, and by the way, they looked at a few small ones, and did not go out, after all, they were not familiar with life, and everyone was used to it cautiously.

When the men who went out in the afternoon came back, everyone had dinner, and after dinner, Old Man Zhang told everyone the news he heard outside today.

"It's not difficult to settle down here, as long as you have a household registration and explain the reason for settling here, a household can settle down by paying half a tael of silver, but where can it be distributed, it is not something we can choose! If you want to choose a good place to settle down, you have to pay more money.

There is also a way, that is, we can buy land here, where to buy land, we can settle down, but it is not easy to buy land, after all, we are foreign, I am afraid that this land must be searched carefully, or to go to the tooth shop to find a person, pay a sum of silver, and find a few good land. ”

Lao Zhangtou told everyone everything he had heard and wanted to hear the opinions of the audience.

"Dad, according to what you mean, there shouldn't be any good land near Yellowstone."

Zhang Shi was the first to speak.

"We stuffed a few copper plates into the little official who was in charge of the household registration, and I heard him say that the nearby villages were poor and the land was not very fertile."

Song Dachuan said.

"The little official recommended a very reputable tooth shop, and we went there, and they saw that we were foreigners, so they sat on the ground and raised the price, and we came out."

Zhang Zhong said with a frown.

"What Dad means is that if you can buy good land with money, it doesn't matter if you spend a few more silver, but if you spend the money and can't buy good land, it will not be cost-effective to be cheated and settled in a poor village."

Song Dachuan added.

"Dad, eldest brother, brother-in-law, this Huangshi City is the first city we saw after we arrived in Huangzhou, we don't have to settle here, we can go in a little further, see a few more places, and always find a suitable place to stay."

Zhang Cheng said after thinking about it.

"The third uncle is right, I have seen the map of Daqian before, and the most prosperous city in Huangzhou is Huangfeng City, because General Chang Da's mansion is in Huangfeng City.

We may not be able to settle in Huangfeng City, but the surrounding villages are in good condition, and we can consider settling there, even if it costs a little more money. ”

Ripples spoke out at the right time and expressed their opinions.

"What do you think?"

Lao Zhangtou still asked the others, everyone had no opinion, anyway, it was the first time to come here, and it was the same wherever they went, as long as the family was together.

After making a decision, everyone rested for another night, and then set off again, heading towards the place where Huang Fengcheng was.

The next road is not as scared as when fleeing from the famine, and a few boys are also lively, they will run in front to explore the way, and they will be shouted at by their own mothers, and then they will turn around and run back after me.

On this day, Ripple was napping on the ox cart, and heard several boys from the Zhang family shouting her name in front of her, shouting "Help!" ”

Ripple's ears twitched, and she immediately opened her eyes and jumped out of the ox cart, and she heard the sound of horses' hooves.

"Sister Ripples! Help me! There are Hu people! ”

"Sister Ripples!"

The Zhang family was also taken aback, they didn't expect to meet Hu Ren here, and their faces were all white.

"Master, don't go, wait here, I'll take a look!"

Ripples took the stick in his hand and began to speed towards the place where the sound came from.

Song Dachuan and Zhang Shi glanced at each other, each carrying a firewood knife, and followed closely behind Ripples, Zhang Zhong, Zhang Jun and Zhang Cheng also picked up the guys and guarded the two ox carts, although they looked anxious, but they didn't dare to run to help without permission, the car was their mother and wife, and they always had to protect it.

The women sitting in the car were also anxious, but no one said anything, and they all looked at the three people who had disappeared from their sight.

When Ripple rushed over, he happened to see a Hu man on horseback, who copied Zhang Fengrui, the son of the third uncle, in his arms, with a cruel smile on his face, put the knife on Zhang Fengrui's neck, turned the horse's head, and yelled at the people behind:

"Feng Kun, you'd better let us go, otherwise I'll slaughter this little cub!"

And Zhang Fengliang and Zhang Fengyong were rolling on the ground, avoiding trampling their horses' hooves, while shouting "Sister Ripple help", so they were embarrassed!

Ripple's eyes dimmed, his good-looking eyes narrowed, and when the two sides confronted each other and didn't notice it, he took out a dagger from his arms and threw it out directly, the goal was to hijack the back of the third brother's Hu Ren's head, regardless of whether it would hit the other party or not, Ripple jumped a few times and ran away, and rushed into the Hu people's horse team, picked up the stick and began to knock the horse's legs.
