21 Chapter 21
The name of the largest dart bureau in the city is also called kamikaze.
Han Mufei looked at the name, and couldn't help but think of the way out of the capital at the beginning of the year, when he met Uncle Xiao who was escorting Master Sun's goods.
It was also a coincidence that when Han Mufei and Song Laohan were invited into the dart game, they really saw Xiao Dazhuang.
Afraid of being recognized, Han Mufei took Brother Chu to avoid him quietly, but fortunately, Xiao Dazhuang seemed to have something to do, and he didn't care about them passing by.
Brother Chu also recognized Xiao Dazhuang, but he was not afraid at all: "I'm wearing it like this, can he still recognize me?" ”
Brother Chu'er's clothes are not ready yet, so he wears old clothes and old cloth shoes from sorghum.
There are a lot of patches on his clothes, and Brother Chu didn't dislike it, but because it was the first time to wear this kind of ordinary people's clothes, he was very curious in his heart, and he didn't feel uncomfortable wearing it on his body, and when others saw him well-behaved, they asked him what his name was, and when he was old, he still responded with a smile: "My name is Song Huma, and I am seven years old this year." ”
Where is the slightest bit of temperament?
The reception of Han Mufei and Uncle Song was one of the stewards in the dart bureau, and I heard that a dart team was going to be hired to escort them all the way to Hezhou, a total of nine people, all of whom were a family, including a five-year-old girl and a two-year-old child, who pondered for a moment and looked at Song Laohan.
"I don't know, how many people does Master Song plan to hire?"
Song Laohan, who was called the master for the first time, panicked for a while, and subconsciously went to look at Han Mufei.
"I don't know how many people the dart bureau usually looks for to protect a family of nine like us?" Han Mufei asked rhetorically.
The shopkeeper smiled.
"I'm not afraid to talk to this ......" The steward didn't know the relationship between Han Mufei and Master Song, how to call him, and looked at Han Mufei halfway through his words.
"Han Sanniang." Han Mufei introduced himself in a slippery manner.
"I'm not afraid to tell this Han Sanniang, now everywhere is very chaotic, just the prince in the city of Gunzhou, and there are a lot of people who come to Gunzhou City to find our dart bureau, now we are understaffed, we can only slow down, and follow the power in a hurry, originally outsiders like Master Song and Miss Han are not going to accept the commission, but ......"
The steward of the dart bureau looked at Song Laohan, and finally returned to Han Mufei's face: "However, it just so happens that there is another family in the dart bureau who also wants to hire people from our dart bureau and want to escort them to Hezhou, but our dart bureau has not come down." ”
And such a coincidence?
Song Laohan and Han Mufei exchanged glances.
"I don't know where the other family came from? How many people? Han Mufei asked.
"That's a He Gongzi, his hometown is in Hezhou, because he has been ill since he was a child, so he has been seeking medical treatment all the year round, and He Langjun has a small guy by his side, a long-term follower." The steward asked, "Master Song, Han Sanniang, if you don't mind, why don't you hire a dart with this He Gongzi, and our kamikaze dart bureau may be able to coordinate a team of people to escort you?" ”
Well, Han Mufei has met all the tables and singles, and it is the first time to fight darts.
She touched her chin and asked, "Then, if we agree to hire a dart with that He Gongzi, what are you going to arrange?" ”
"Our dart team can send five dart masters, as for the cost...... the steward smiled, "That He Gongzi said, if he can find a patron who can accompany him on the road, he will be responsible for half of the cost, Master Song and Han Sanniang, you only need to spend thirty taels of silver." ”
"So expensive?" Han Mufei gasped.
That's three times more expensive than her previous budget of ten taels.
"Han Sanniang, extraordinary times, forgive me, forgive me."
Now it has been a month since King Li ascended the throne and became emperor, and with Cheng Anhou's refusal to recognize the orthodoxy of King Li, the assassins and fiefdoms of all parts of the world are waiting for the opportunity to mess up.
The current situation in the world is in chaos, the soldiers are in chaos, the people are panicking, and those with vested interests are all secretly strengthening their strength, and even worse, they are recruiting troops and buying and selling with great fanfare, intending to get a piece of the pie.
This is also the premise why the dart game is suddenly prosperous, and the dart game has the courage to take the opportunity to raise the price.
During this period, when you go out, pay more money, and hire more guards, then your life will be more secure.
People who cherish their lives are naturally not stingy with paying more money.
Then this dart, do you want to fight?
Han Mufei learned the reason behind the price increase of the dart board, and did not hesitate for long, so he should make a suggestion to the steward to fight the dart, and paid the tariff of twenty taels of silver in advance, and the rest of the money and silver will be paid directly to the dart team dart master after arriving at the destination.
When he returned to the rented courtyard, Song Sanlang bought 30 catties of cereals, 10 catties of corn, and 10 catties of coarse noodles.
Because he was afraid of buying too much food in one go, Song Sanlang went to different stores to buy it in batches, which was also suggested by Song Laohan.
I bought dry food, and I had to buy oil and salt for occasional cooking on the road.
I didn't buy the donkey I was looking for.
Hearing that the dart team set off three days later, Song Sanlang was even less anxious, and repaired the board car with Song Laohan first.
And Han Mufei saw them messing with the cart, but he also wanted to get a donkey cart.
Now that she has walked outside, Han Sanniang's body has suffered, and her tender feet have come out of the blisters, and she has survived it, but it tastes bitter.
Originally, when I hired a dart, I thought that I could rent a carriage, but the steward of the dart bureau said that now there is a shortage of manpower, and there is no carriage left to rent, and the carriage shops in the city will not rent a carriage for their own long-distance use.
If she prepares to drive the carriage by herself, and the carriage is too dazzling to buy, then the donkey cart can always be prepared, right? There is a dart team to protect you, are you afraid that people will not be able to rob the donkey cart?
In the last days, the car is also used when transferring! How convenient it is to have a car.
Han Mufei followed Song Laohan out that afternoon, went to the carriage and horse market in Gunzhou Mansion, and bought a donkey and a good donkey cart.
The two donkeys cost twenty-four taels of silver, and with the matching carriage bridles, it cost about thirty taels.
Yes, there is a means of transportation.
Han Mufei thought that he didn't need to suffer by himself in the future, so he was happy, and after listening to what Song Laohan said, he also bought some bean feed for the donkey, as well as oilcloth to prepare for the donkey cart on rainy days.
With the experience of the past, Han Mufei also deliberately went to the pharmacy to buy some medicine and wine that can be used for injuries and common diseases, filled with a medicine basket, and there are mosquito repellent herbs - these days have been reduced to spending the night outside, the weather is hot, and the mosquitoes are raging, and the bite makes the body hurt and itch.
Then he went to the blacksmith shop.
There are only four arrows left in her crossbow, and she is glad that she didn't meet the time to use the crossbow later, and now that she has entered the city, there will be some time in the future, in order to protect herself or defend herself, it is natural to build more arrows.
However, it was too eye-catching to take out the crossbow in the city, so Han Mufei just took an arrow and gave it to the craftsman of the blacksmith shop to forge it according to the appearance.
The craftsman saw that she was not a local, and the use of the arrow was not estimated to be correct, and even if she knocked on the bamboo pole, she would not be silent, so she was charged 200 yuan for one piece.
She was self-aware that raising a crossbow cost money, but she didn't expect it to cost so much copper money to build an arrow outside.
However, even if it costs a lot, it can't be avoided.
This is a guy who uses it to save his life when necessary, and when I think about it, I feel that it is worth spending more.
Han Mufei, who relied on his own money and silver, ordered fifty pieces without frowning, and spent ten taels of silver at once.
After Song Sanlang and Song Laohan successively purchased the rations, it was time to set off.
In the past few days, Song San's sister-in-law and Mrs. Song have not been idle, first of all, they made a new set of clothes for everyone in the family, two clothes for Brother Chu, and a pair of cloth shoes.
Han Mufei saw that Song San's sister-in-law was making clothes and there were still some rags left, and looked at the weather, the days in May are getting hotter and hotter day by day, with Han Sanniang's body, sunburn is a trivial matter, and it will be a big trouble in case of heat stroke.
There is no power fence, and it is not reliable for people who go to the desert to wear this, so I decided to make myself a wide-brimmed hat for sunscreen, and told Song San's sister-in-law about the shape of the hat, and selected a patchwork of rags.
Song San's sister-in-law is worthy of ingenuity, and it didn't take half an hour to make a hat with a particularly beautiful contrasting color.
Wearing a Langjun suit and a retro-style wide-brimmed hat for sunshade, a mix of ancient and modern, well, it is very handsome when worn on her!
Han Mufei wore a hat of just the right size to give Song San's sister-in-law a rainbow fart output, which made Song San's sister-in-law embarrassed.
Originally, I wanted to promote it to Brother Chu and the Song family, but they didn't say it well, they still liked to wear a straw hat made of straw poles, and Han Mufei was not reluctant.
The donkey cart of the Song family was repaired, and the really dilapidated tables and chairs were not brought, so they brought the necessary masters, such as bedding, clothes, needlework, and grain storage pots, knives, hoes, and hoes.
So Mrs. Song sat down with soybeans in her arms, and Song San's sister-in-law and Maizi followed on the side.
As for Han Mufei's donkey cart, it was mainly a sitting, but no one in the Song family was embarrassed to sit at first, and they prevaricated that they would wait until they were tired, so Han Mufei sat by himself, Song Sanlang helped drive the donkey, and Brother Chu and Song Gaoliang followed and learned to drive the car.
When the group walked to the kamikaze dart bureau, they happened to see the steward and a thin middle-aged man also standing in front of the door, and there were four or five men in strong suits beside them, who seemed to be the dart master who took this dart.
Song Laohan, as the speaker of the Song family, and Han Mufei, as a representative of the sisters and brothers, got out of the car and saw the manager of the dart bureau.
After getting acquainted with each other, the steward of the dart bureau called the members of the dart team who arranged to escort them along the way, and the leader was Xiao Dazhuang.
Han Mufei couldn't help but straighten his chest, and pretended to be upright and arrogant to face Xiao Dazhuang, who was introduced by the steward of the dart bureau.
Xiao Dazhuang looked at Han Mufei, who was dressed up in a gentlemanly manner, and felt a little familiar, but because she was wearing a hat on her head, she didn't recognize anyone at once, until the convoy drove out and slowly walked out of the south gate of Gunzhou, and suddenly remembered: Isn't she a wooden girl?
Why did she suddenly become Han Sanniang again?
