He pinched the paperwork in his cuffs and said with a smile: "I serve, people can become imperial businessmen at a young age, but they don't just have a background and a relationship, alas, ......"

He shook his head, and couldn't help muttering, "Why doesn't our family have such a smart person?" ”

His son: "......"

Lu Xu didn't know that one day he would be able to become what his parents called "someone else's child", and after taking the mutton corresponding to the base material on credit, they would only have more than one car left.

Without a base material as bait, these small businessmen lack a little motivation, and always feel that they are losing money just by buying meat.

Lu Xu didn't force others to buy it, he was quite satisfied with being able to give out so much on credit.

According to the agreement, even if the latest delivery date is before the beginning of spring, at least on the greenest days, their food supply is a little guaranteed.

He believes that as long as they sell well, they will definitely make money, and if they are smarter, they can make a lot of money.

When they made money and came back from Guannai, they had to thank him for forcing them to buy meat, regretting that they were too timid to buy more.

He politely refused Li County's order to let him eat, but packed up his things and hurried to Xifeng County to change food.

Xifeng County, which is adjacent to Tianhu Mountain in the east, is the county with the most abundant grain in the entire northwest.

Lu Xu and the others rushed to the east non-stop.

Xifeng County occupies most of the southern slope of Tianhu Mountain, and the population is relatively large, and the north is actually very close to their Beiting county seat, so it would be great if they could be invited to participate in their mutual trade.

Lu Xu's plan was perfect, and the execution was good.

The county magistrate of Xifeng County happily agreed that it would consider mutual markets, and also organized people in the small county town to notify the people who needed to exchange meat and exchange food with them.

There is a sloping land in the south of Xifeng County that can grow millet, and the county government generously exchanged their new millet this year for Lu Xu, instead of eating wild vegetables that are not very full.

They also hunted deer on the way back from Xifeng County, but the Tiger Benjun was reluctant to eat it, so he asked Lu Xu to take it back to his younger brother and the county commander to taste it.

But unfortunately, their good luck ran out quickly, and they were less than two days away from the county seat of Beiting County, and they encountered a huge snowstorm.

Lu Xu had never seen such a big snowstorm in his life, overwhelming, up and down, left and right, east, west, north and south, there was snow everywhere, he couldn't see anything, he couldn't tell the direction, and the wind blew so that people couldn't stand and couldn't open their eyes.

They tried to brave the snow to get back, but they couldn't. They walked forcibly for less than an hour before they were about to get lost, and Lu Xu had to let everyone camp in the wilderness.

The tent couldn't be set up at all, and the horses were all in disarray.

They blocked the carriage in front of them as a wind barrier, and everyone worked together to finally control the situation and set up the tent.

But the tent that had just been set up was quickly blown away.

They had to dig deep into the snow, pile up snow to make a wall, and tie the tent deep and well inside the wall, and the people stood in a circle inside the tent and pressed the corners of the tent.

They were terrified all night, until the snow covered most of the tent and formed an igloo, and they were much warmer.

The snowstorm fell for two days and one night, and by the time the snow stopped, the snow outside was nearly two meters deep.

Their vents went all the way to the roof of the tent.

Lu Xu climbed out of the snow from the torn tent roof, staring at the white white eyes and stunned.

What about people?

What about cars?

What about horses?

He quickly climbed out of the whole thing, wading through the snow to the bulging snowdrift, as if swimming in the snow, shouting and looking for tents and people.

The Tiger Army heard the movement and came out of the tents.

They are also looking for Lu Xu.

It was too chaotic last night, and they couldn't find which tent Lu Xu was in, so as soon as they stabilized, they began to dig holes everywhere and look for them one by one.

When they all climbed up safely, Lu Xu was shocked by the fierceness of the Tiger Army.

Not only did they take care of the tents, but the team responsible for taking care of the horses even dismantled the planks of the carriage and stepped on the carriage frame to protect the wind and snow, while the rest of the horses were racing against time to dig holes in the snow and dig a large ice hut for the horses and men to protect the horses.

But some of them had frozen hands and feet, and all of them were wooden.

Lu Xu told them to quickly count and see if there were any people who missed and whether anyone was buried in the snow.

Then quickly rub the frozen soldiers to keep warm, and light a fire on the spot to keep warm and drive away the cold.

The tents and carriages buried underneath are difficult to take out, and Lu Xu doesn't care, as long as the people are safe, he doesn't care about anything else.

They rested, Lu Xu told them to get the horses out, except for food, other things that are easy to take away, and those that are not good to take away will be left, and then the snow will melt later.

As for the tents, later he compensated.

"Don't spend it, let's go, and have a good rest when we get to the county office."

If they do it again, they'll all die.

Before you get lost, hurry back. With such a heavy snowfall, he was also worried about the situation in the county.

In the county seat, Yan Junqi and Lu Zhou are also going crazy.

Before the blizzard began, they felt that the weather conditions were not right, and immediately notified the county to stop outdoor activities and let all the people go home and stay closed. If someone's house collapses due to snow, the surrounding neighbors have a responsibility to take care of the victims.

If someone is injured or in trouble, the neighbors must also help temporarily.

As soon as the snowstorm ended, Yan Junqi and Lu Zhou took the officials trapped in the county government to patrol the county.

Fortunately, they had previously repaired houses from house to house, and only seven or eight thatched houses in the county had collapsed, and the families affected by the disaster had also been taken to their homes by neighbors for refuge.

According to their rough statistics, only three people were injured because the house was crushed, and some people had symptoms of wind and cold, and those who were injured and those with severe symptoms of wind and cold were put on wooden boards by officials and carried to the hospital for treatment.

After inspecting the county seat, Yan Junqi and Lu Zhou went straight to the city gate again, looking south anxiously.

But the snow in the four fields is vast, and it is like a silent death, where is the shadow of a person?

Yan Junqi refused to go back to the county office, he and Lu Zhou crowded together in the small room on duty at the city gate, and the two took turns to go up the city wall and look out.

"My lord, go back to the county government quickly, Lu Tou will definitely be fine."

"So many tiger troops are following, and it will be fine."

"They must have been hiding from the snow in that town."

"That's it, go back and rest, don't get sick anymore."

Yan Junqi will listen.

There was nothing serious in the city, so he arranged for officials to lead the people to clear the snow in the city, and he himself made torches and stuck them in the city walls.

Ah Hao: They said that when encountering a snowstorm, what they are most afraid of is disorientation.

Their city was so small that they could see it clearly at night with torches.

When the people of the city saw it, they settled the old and the young in the house, took the hoes and shovels at home, and took whatever they wanted, but did not clean the snow in the house, nor did they clean the snow in the city, but they were extremely tacit, and they gathered at the gate of the city tacitly, and began to clear the road into the city.

"When Lord Lu and the others come back, the road will be easy to go."

Three days later, the exhausted group looked at the row of torches burning overnight on the city wall, and the avenue dug from the city gate to a few hundred meters away, and every ten meters on the snow wall next to the road, a row of torches connected into a fire dragon, and one by one could not help but burst into tears.

"Someone looks like it!"

"Is it Lord Lu?!"

The people who had been digging the road all night pointed to the distance and shouted excitedly.

Lu Xu choked up and replied loudly, "Yes-it's us-we're back——! ”

Before he could finish his voice, he saw a man stumbling with a torch and running towards him with one foot shallow and one foot in the snow.

It's Junqi!

The others were stunned, and hurriedly chased Yan Junqi to Lu Xu and them.

Lu Xu patted the horse, and the horse was already bored.

He jumped off his horse and made a difficult trek in the direction of the torches.

Just over 100 meters, like a galaxy across it.

The clothes were wet, the legs were heavy and stiff, shivering, Lu Xu finally hugged Yan Junqi, he quickly let go of him, looked up and down, smirked, but tears burst down the embankment.

Chapter 301: Showmanship

Lu Xu was wrapped in a quilt and carried back to the county office, and he was watched by the people who cared about him along the way with torches.

When the people of the city, who had already slept, heard that he had returned, they ran out without putting on their coats.

Lu Xu was moved and died, but he was so tired that he was exhausted, and the way back was all supported by his will, if it wasn't for the last bit of dignity left, he wanted to lie down on the spot and ask someone to carry him back.

But his frozen brain didn't react, he was dragged away like this, in fact, it was better to lie down and be carried back.

The official who ran back to the county government in advance lit a fire and boiled water, and ran to carry the barefoot doctor to the county office, and hurried to show Lu Xu.

Yan Junqi took off his frozen and hard clothes, stuffed him into the quilt, and rubbed his blood.

Lu Zhou came over with the decoction, and Lu Xu was embarrassed to drink it, so he asked Lu Zhou to put it down and go for him to see how the tiger soldiers who accompanied him back were doing.

"Many of them have frostbite, the situation is more serious than mine, Zhouzhou, you take the doctor over to take a look, we have all the frostbite medicines, and there are also those who treat wind and cold, ask everyone to help take care of them, I'm afraid they will have a fever in the middle of the night."

Lu Zhou: "Well, the doctor has already gone." ”

Lu Xu: "Okay. ”

He asked them again: "Is the situation in the county good these days?" ”

Yan Junqi fed him with medicine, "Okay, there are only a few houses collapsed in the county seat, and no one has been injured or affected." ”

Lu Xu: "That's good. ”

He was afraid to die on the way.

I'm afraid that they won't be able to come back if they get lost, and I'm afraid that Junqi will suddenly encounter a snowstorm and be unprepared, and something will happen.

After drinking the medicine, Lu Xu urged Yan Junqi to go and see the Tiger Benjun for him.

He had lost their tents, and he didn't know where they were going to live.

Yan Junqi: "Don't worry, the county government can't live there, and the people in the city have already brought people home to borrow them." ”

Usually they protect the safety of the people, but at this time, it is the people who take care of them.
