Chapter 19: Misunderstanding
Wen Yi knew that this issue was a forbidden area for the superiors, and it was easy to touch. And she's just one of him, well, how can I say that? It's just an embarrassing friend.
Despite this, even if he knew that he was not qualified to ask, he understood that Chen Bin would not tell her the truth. But for the sake of the next thought, she still opened her mouth.
Ignoring Chen Bin's silence and his skeptical gaze, Wen Yi continued: "What are the current advantages of the border pass? Herds of cattle and sheep. The disadvantage is naturally that the land is deserted, and the supply of grain and vegetables is seriously insufficient. ”
Feeling Chen Bin's sharp gaze, Wen Yi had no choice but to explain first: "Chen Bin, I don't mean anything else, let alone betray you." I'm just a bit nosy, maybe you can think of it as profitable? I want to find myself a strong backer who can have a foothold here in the future, that's all. You don't want to look like you want to judge me right away, okay? I'm so stressed. ”
"Do you know about the South-to-North Water Diversion? It probably means that areas with too much rain and areas with too much drought can be regulated by building a river. This process is very difficult to implement, and I can tell you the general points if needed. What I want to say tonight is that trade, in the same way as the South-to-North Water Diversion, is actually the exchange of goods. Now that the relationship between the border pass and the imperial court is so tense, we will definitely not be able to sell cattle and sheep openly, but what if we do it secretly? This may seem fantastical to others, but for you I believe it's just a lack of deployment. ”
"There are so many cattle and sheep at the border gates, why don't we find a way to turn them into silver? We can transport it to nearby cities to be bought and sold, or slaughtered and sold for meat, or sold live to farmers. It depends on what you have in various places, as for the mode of transportation, I suggest that you have your own route, which can communicate with each other in normal times, transport goods, improve the living standards of various regions, and can also be used in the military during special periods? ”
After listening to Wen Yi's words, Chen Bin slowly relaxed and asked, "In your opinion, where can I place people in the city?" ”
Wen Yi watched Chen Bin's attitude soften before he relaxed and replied, "It depends on what you want to get." ”
"For example?"
"If you want to get money, it's best to put people in military camps, vegetable markets, and other places where you need a lot of beef and mutton. If you want to hear the news, then I suggest opening a flower house in a flower building, a restaurant, etc., or even your own. ”
"Oh? Why did you choose that kind of place? ”
"There are a lot of fish and dragons there, from the court officials to the wine bags and rice bags, who doesn't have them? People say that a wife is not as good as a concubine, it is better to be secret, it is better not to steal, how can the house flower have the fragrance of wild flowers! The man's inferior nature is legalized here, the key is that the wife can't take care of it yet, otherwise who can afford to buckle down a jealous hat? So you can imagine how many people will be in Hualou every day, and if you can stay overnight, you can imagine how much news can be blown out by the pillow wind at night. ”
"Wen Yi, how old are you this year?"
"Eighteen." In fact, she was nineteen years old before she crossed over, but in the girl's heart, she will always be eighteen, and there is nothing wrong with it. Besides, this body is almost eighteen years old.
An eighteen-year-old girl, so proficient in human affairs, speaking boldly and explicitly, even he is ashamed of himself, what kind of flowers and wildflowers, what pillow wind, as if he has experienced it himself.
But if she was a spy, wouldn't it be better to take him down? Is it lust?
So as soon as his head was hot, Chen Bin got up and slowly approached her, seeing that the tip of his nose was about to touch Wen Yi's cheek, Wen Yi quickly retreated, his face was flushed, and he scolded angrily: "What are you doing? It's just inexplicable! ”
Chen Bin immediately retreated, it was impossible for him to say that he had not been in contact with the spies sent by the enemy, but no one reacted like Wen Yi subconsciously at this moment, so simple and immature.
Could it be that he was wrong?
Wen Yi looked at Chen Bin's silent appearance after kissing her, and thought about the reason why things became like this.
Angrily explained: "I just think it's a pity that there are so many cattle and sheep in the border pass that can't be sold for money, when I say Hualou, it's just an objective evaluation, I'm not the kind of person who can sell hue, do you think that at this moment we are lonely men and widows, I proposed a concubine in front of you, and it was Hualou, which is a hint to you?" Can you do whatever you want? You even ...... Forget it, it's all my own doing, but I don't mean to, and I'm sorry if you misunderstand it. Since you're done tonight, I'll go back first. ”
When Chen Bin came back to his senses, Wen Yi was already almost at the door, and he was about to open the door and go out. He stepped over and grabbed her arm, but before he could explain, he was vigorously pushed away by Wen Yi, and said in an annoyed tone: "Go away, please respect yourself, I have no intention of having a skin-to-skin relationship with you, if you need it, you can find someone else." ”
Chen Bin realized how reckless he was after looking at her sunken face, and hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, Wen Yi, I didn't mean that, I just lost my mind and went crazy, don't you mind." ”
Wen Yi just lowered his head and said, "Then I'll go back." ”
Chen Bin now regrets that his intestines are green, and he regrets that he was in a hurry, and used such an offensive behavior to verify his conjecture, and now nothing has been confirmed but is still disgusted by her, making it impossible to steal chickens and rice.
Chen Bin stood in place and said cautiously: "Aren't you afraid of ghosts when it's dark?" I'll send you back. ”
Wen Yi looked at him and said, "No, sometimes people's hearts are more unpredictable than ghosts. After speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Chen Bin alone there to be annoyed.
The next morning, Wen Yi didn't go to the old lady to eat under the pretext that she hadn't rested well at night and needed to catch up on sleep. Chen Bin was worried that she didn't come to eat because of her own reasons, and at the same time comforted herself, she really didn't sleep well last night, and it was normal to make up for sleep.
But every day since then, Chen Bin never saw Wen Yi appear in the old lady's yard again, and finally understood that she didn't want to see herself.
And Wen Yi's life here is having a good time, and Chen Bin's matter let her know that good people can't do it, and the more they do it, the more they lack morality.
She was originally kind-hearted, but her words were a little more explicit, so she was so despised by him. Fortunately, she didn't like him in the first place, and she would try to distance herself from him in the future, and stopping losses in time was the biggest improvement.
This person is really unseemly, no wonder people often say that when they fall in love, they are the same after they get married. People can't tell whether they are good or bad if they want to pretend to be immortals, let alone mortals.
Now she can't go out, so she asked the housekeeper to buy her some vegetable seeds, and she has been busy planting vegetables in the yard for the past few days.
Turning the soil, flattening it, sowing seeds, watering it, covering the soil, and finally finding some hay in the yard to spread it.
Every detail was checked repeatedly, and every morning these days I observed it every day, and when I saw it, I removed it. The emperor paid off, and today her little green vegetables finally broke the ground.
Now she finally has the joy of growing vegetables for her neighbor's mother-in-law, who not only exercises her body, but also improves her standard of living. After all, the food at the border is so oily that you can't even see a vegetable leaf. Watching the vegetable seedlings grow up slowly, my mood also became happy.
