Chapter Forty-Nine: Careful Planning

"Great nobleman, I think he's a big pig!"

Before Li Zijun could think about it, Wendy suddenly said loudly next to her, and then she also said loudly, without the slightest awareness of being a virtuous woman. But she also knew that she was a little excessive, and ran away after saying this.

This woman is a typical thunder mother, always inadvertently discharged, but not for the electric person, but to thunder all the people around her!

Hearing Wendy's words, Li Zijun and Lindsay both smiled bitterly and shook their heads. It's just that Li Zijun felt that Lindsay's eyes had always stayed on him.

This Lindsay's performance is really strange! Li Zijun couldn't guess what his purpose was. Just looking at him, he didn't seem to have any ill will towards him, but even so, Li Zijun still didn't dare to relax his vigilance against him.

"Although I have seen a lot of nobles in the Dongyu Empire, none of them seem to be as noble as Young Master Ed! I dare to conclude that Young Master Ed is definitely from the ancient nobility of Menglin. Lindsay said to Li Zijun with a smile.

"Mr. Lindsay, are you from the Dongyu Empire?" Li Zijun asked with a move in his heart.

"That was six or seven years ago, and I still miss that time, but I can't go back!" Lindsay understood that Li Zijun was wary of himself, and he had to let himself go completely in order to gain Li Zijun's trust.

"Weishenme?" asked Li Zijun curiously.

"I did something unforgivable, and I don't have the face to go back! I assassinated a Hou Ye, and I regret it now!" Lindsay looked at Li Zijun with sincerity.

Almost at the same time, Li Zijun thought of the magician who used the magic scroll to release lightning, and he looked at Lindsay in surprise.

And Lindsay actually nodded at this time!

"I don't want to make the same mistake again!"

Li Zijun didn't know Weishenme either, he believed Lindsay's words.

"I believe in you!" Li Zijun also looked at Lindsay and nodded seriously.

Lindsay saw Li Zijun's sincere eyes, and he somewhat understood that this young man would behave so eye-catching in the Dongyu Empire in the past few years! From the moment of crisis, leading away the Menglin cavalry for his subordinates, to forgiving himself, the person who had assassinated him. A person with such a mind, not to mention that Li Zijun is still a teenager, even those palace nobles are not able to do it! Lindsay secretly made up his mind that Li Zijun must be sent back to the Dongyu Empire safely.

And at this moment, looking at Wendy, who is like a silly big sister, and Li Zijun, who is a young man, Lindsay's desire to match them is even stronger! This is completely Lindsay's selfishness.

Wendy's ability to survive in this way for so long is entirely because of her father, and even then, Wendy's tribe has been in a very difficult situation.

The young man in front of him definitely has the ability and strength to turn the tide of Wendy's tribe, and he is also a trustworthy person, if Wendy can establish a relationship with him, her future is guaranteed, which is equivalent to Lindsay's future is guaranteed.

It's just that Wendy may not mind this matter, but her name of 'Black Widow' is not casual, will Li Zijun be taboo about this? And there is still a big age gap between them, thinking of this, Lindsay is a little worried about whether this thing can be successful.

Instead of returning directly to the tribe with the group, Wendy made a big detour to a large bazaar.

As they got closer to this bazaar, the number of people they met gradually increased, and Li Zijun slowly became nervous. He was afraid that once he met someone who had seen his true face, he might be in danger!

And Li Zijun also thought of a possibility, that is, Boyle and Julie used shadow graphics to find themselves. He even suspected that his portrait had now been plastered all over the Turk-Hungarian Empire. If he is discovered in the heart of the Hungarian Empire, the rest of his fugitive life will be even more difficult!

Although Li Zijun has the current strength, as long as he does not fall into the trap set by the other party in advance or is surrounded by the troops formed by the legion, he is confident that he will break through calmly. But he also knew very well that once Boyle found out about his whereabouts, he would immediately mobilize a large number of masters to round him up. At that point, he'll be in real danger!

And after a few days of contact, Li Zijun found that Wendy, a woman, had almost no scheming, and he didn't want to cause trouble to Wendy, a woman who was kind enough to take him in, because of his exposure.

"Young Master Ed, you fit well in our Turk-Hungarian clothes, except for a little fairer complexion, you are almost like us here. I have some ointments here that can make your complexion darker, are you interested in trying them?" Lindsay saw Li Zijun's nervousness, came to his side, took out a box of ointments and handed it to him.

Li Zijun opened it and sniffed it, but found nothing unusual, and tried to apply these ointments to his exposed parts. Sure enough, there is no bad feeling, but the complexion has turned bronze. Coupled with the Turk-Hungarian costume he was wearing at the moment, it was really difficult to distinguish his original appearance without looking carefully.

"Well, this looks like a real man, or Mr. Lindsay's method!" I don't know what Lindsay said to Wendy, she came to Li Zijun's side and said this.

Li Zijun didn't know how to explain his changes, so he smiled and didn't say anything. Lindsay must have said something to the others, and the others didn't pay more attention to the changes in Li Zijun, as if he was supposed to be like this.

"Don't look at this bazaar, it looks like it's not small, and the variety of goods is also very complete, but since there are no valuable items here, even the leaders of the larger tribes don't bother to come to this place to buy goods!" Lindsay reminded Li Zijun beside him.

After these two things, Li Zijun is even more certain that Lindsay has no malice towards him. He wanted to talk to Lindsay again, but Lindsay just smiled and left. Li Zijun looked at his back, sighed, and suppressed the urge to call Lindsay.

Li Zijun finally saw this bazaar, which covers an area of 100,000 square meters. The bazaar is divided into two parts: the east side is lined with tents, behind which a large number of goods are piled up, and it seems that this side is a place dedicated to the sale of large goods, and the west side is a bit compact compared to the east side, with counters for goods one after another, and the goods on them are also dazzling and varied, but as Lindsay just said, all of them are the most ordinary goods, and there are no fine products. Li Zijun, who has seen the world, is not interested in these things!

Wendy should be very familiar with this place, and led everyone directly to a freight yard on the east side. After finding a man who looked like a boss, and didn't see how they talked, Wendy began to instruct her subordinates to unload the goods, as if she was not worried that the other party would calculate him.

After unloading all the goods, Wendy followed the boss into the tent next to him alone, and the others left here together at this time, making Li Zijun a little confused.

"Ed, why are you still standing here stupidly, why don't you go shopping over there? Don't you have any money in your pocket, do you need my sister to borrow you some?" Bai Li said with a smile when she saw Li Zijun who was still in a daze in the freight yard.

"Sister Baili, don't we have to wait for Wendy here for a while, aren't you worried that Wendy's stupid big sister will be deceived by them?"

"Giggle!" said Bai Li, as if she had heard some of the funniest jokes, and laughed back and forth.

At first, Li Zijun was still a little puzzled, but with the turbulent waves in front of Bai Li, his vision also changed.

"Stinky boy, if you really want to see it, when you return to the tribe, my sister will let you see enough!" Bai Li found that Li Zijun was peeping at him, not only was she not upset, but laughed at him in a low voice. Her words made Li Zijun's face flushed.

"Don't worry, no one in this bazaar has dared to deceive Wendy! she still has some things to do, so we don't have to wait for her here. Let's go, accompany my sister over there to go shopping. Bai Li couldn't help but say and pulled Li Zijun out of the East District.

Li Zijun was pulled to the West District by Bai Li, and at first he was a little resistant to Bai Li's intimate movements. But then he continued to feel her genuineness from leaning on Baili's arm, and he stopped struggling.

Bai Li also felt the change in Li Zijun and leaned on him more intimately. Although Li Zijun looks a little thin, and the lines of his muscles are not very prominent, due to the relationship between his cultivation of internal strength, his muscles are very well-proportioned and delicate, and they feel excellent to the touch. And because of Li Zijun's breakthrough this time, his skin seems to have regained the delicacy of a baby, coupled with his handsome appearance, Bai Li is also happy to be so close to him.

The two of them wandered aimlessly in the West District, although the goods here were very complete and there were many tricks, but Li Zijun was not interested in these rough things at all, and the purpose of his coming was to serve as a humanoid hanger for Baili. But what made Li Zijun feel strange was that although Bai Li was curious about many things, she didn't buy any goods in the end.

"Sister Bai Li, don't you like these things? Weishenme won't buy them?" Li Zijun couldn't help the curiosity in his heart as he walked, and looked at Bai Li and asked.

"Most of our tribe's grain has been collected this year, if it weren't for Miss taking us out, after a while, our tribe would probably run out of food! I still save all the money in my hand and give it to Miss for a while, even if I buy more food, I can feed the children in the tribe. Bai Li said with a sigh.

"It turns out that your tribe is already so difficult!" Li Zijun didn't expect Wendy, who had always seemed to be easy, to shoulder such a big responsibility.

"Fighting, fighting! Victory is the glory of those people in the upper class, and it is us people who suffer, and defeat has nothing to do with those old men, and we people are miserable!" said Bai Li dissatisfied.

"Then don't you have to hate the guy who burned your grain and grass very much?" Li Zijun suddenly blamed himself at this moment.

"You're wrong! Instead of resenting him, we are thankful to him. It was because he burned our grain and grass that we avoided a major war with the Dongyu Empire, which invisibly saved the lives of a large number of soldiers. It's more important to save your life than to starve for two meals!"

"There are more than 10,000 people in our tribe, but we only have nearly 2,000 men, and this time we have drawn a thousand soldiers from our tribe, and not only that, but we also have to raise 500 war horses ourselves. This is still the result of Miss's hard work, and some tribes have directly taken out two-thirds of the males! If we have a big war with the Dongyu Empire, it is unknown whether they will be able to come back alive. It's okay to win the battle, but once the battle in front doesn't go well, it's normal to continue to draw ding. In the prairie, the fate of the lack of strong men can be imagined, and after a battle, no matter whether they win or lose, several tribes will completely disappear. Because of this, we do not resent the person who burned our grain and grass, so that more people can return to the grassland alive. It's hard enough to deal with the harsh environment of the grassland, and those old men still have to start wars, I really don't know what they think! Anyway, I think there are very few people on the grassland who want to really capture Commander Dongyu, at least I won't!"

Hearing Bai Li's words, Li Zijun also sighed with emotion, he didn't expect that there was such a huge difference between different people in the interpretation of the same war, and he also recalled the helplessness of being an ordinary person!

"Sister Baili, if you fancy something, I'll give it to you!" Li Zijun said with some excitement. He had already seen that it was not that Bai Li did not have a favorite item, but that she wanted to be able to keep all the money to buy food, and he hoped to be able to do something for this kind woman.

"Xiexie, Ed! Sister is very satisfied to see it! If you really have the heart, I hope you can buy Wendy a gift. She used to have a lot of valuable jewelry, but for the sake of the tribe, she is almost sold out, so you might as well give her some gifts!"

At this moment, Li Zijun suddenly felt that his eyes lit up, and he saw a very charming sign.

"Buy them all! No one is missing!" said as he took the initiative to pull Bai Li to a stall selling women's jewelry.

Hearing Li Zijun say the words "no one is missing", the boss of the stall was slightly stunned, then returned to normal, and hurriedly greeted him enthusiastically.

"You can choose and look at it, you can try on the jewelry in the two photos at will, and you will be satisfied!" The boss nudged the guy who was standing there aside and personally received Li Zijun and Bai Li.

"Are we satisfied?" unless we don't care about asking for money!" Li Zijun laughed with his hands on the counter, and the fingers of his left hand seemed to be unconsciously tapping on the counter.

"This young master, you really like to laugh, with your noble status, how dare I give you something casually! Then I'm not boring myself!" The boss said with a smile on his face, although his eyes were still on Li Zijun and Bai Li's body, his spare eyes kept paying attention to Li Zijun's left hand that knocked on the counter.

Li Zijun used to be a radio amateur in his previous life, and he was very familiar with Morse code. Later, when Kelvin set up the intelligence system, Li Zijun taught him this skill, and now Morse code has become the first skill that intelligence officers on the Seine Peninsula must master.

Just now, Li Zijun accidentally saw a contact sign on this counter, so he pulled Baili here in the name of buying gifts.

'How's the situation at the border gates, is Catherine back safely?' Li Zijun asked in Morse code as he chatted with the boss.

The Monlin Empire and the Turk-Hungarian Empire had withdrawn their troops! Catherine also led the army back to Wimbleton, and the war was almost over. It's just that Boyle completely blocked the borders of the Turkish-Hungarian Empire, and it was difficult for anyone except the grain merchants to enter and leave the Turkish-Hungarian Empire. ’

In addition to sending a large number of soldiers to search, Boyle also organized a search team composed of more than a dozen swordsmen and above to search along the way, and also invited three other sword masters of the Turkish-Hungarian Empire, who also joined the team to find you. ’

At the same time, the boss said that the intelligence system of the Seine Peninsula in the Turk-Hungarian Empire was ready to rescue Li Zijun at all costs.

Li Zijun understands very well that although this boss is arrogant, it is actually too difficult to rescue himself! And it is very likely that all the inside lines that the Seine Peninsula has arranged in the Turk-Hungarian Empire for so many years will be exposed!

At this time, both the Menglin Empire and the Turk-Hungarian Empire had withdrawn their troops, and Li Zijun's return a day early or a day late would not have much impact. And now that he is safe after all, there is really no need to take such a big risk.

Thinking of this, Li Zijun gave the order to suspend the rescue of himself, and told the boss that he would stay in a tribe with a leader named 'Wendy' in the near future. After explaining clearly, he asked for Bai Li's opinion again, and Li Zijun selected two gifts for Wendy and Bai Li, and then left the stall with Bai Li.

By the time they returned to the Eastside, Wendy had already stepped out of the tent she had been in, and she was negotiating the price with a few grain sellers.

"Your prices are too high, who can afford it?" Li Zijun heard Wendy's grumbling from a long distance.

"Miss Wendy, we're risking our lives by transporting this little bit of food from other places! This money is not just earned by us people, most of it is used to connect with other places. You probably don't know it yet, Princess Julie has ordered that all grain transactions in the empire be stopped, and the empire will buy grain at a 10% increase from the current market price. We're already giving you a very good price now!" A grain merchant shook his head and sighed and beat his chest in front of Wendy, but he didn't mean to reduce the price.

"Miss, why has the price of food gone up again?" Bai Li said worriedly as she looked at Wendy's sad face.

"When Boyle was preparing for the war, the price of grain had risen to a pulp. Edlaide's boy burned Boyle's grain, and it doubled in size!Now it's more expensive than gold!" Wendy said angrily.

"Miss Wendy, if you want, there is no other way to think of it. A grain merchant leaned over to Wendy's side and whispered.

"Don't say it, I won't do that! I have so little money in my hand, you can see how much you can give!" Wendy took a money bag from her bosom and threw it into the grain merchant's hand.

At this time, Wendy's men also came back one after another, and they didn't buy anything, and put all the money they had in the money bag.

Li Zijun had more than 100 gold coins on him, and he wanted to help Wendy, but he didn't dare! Anyone who could take out one or two gold coins in this place was considered a rich man, and if he threw hundreds of gold coins in front of the grain merchants, no one would suspect him! He just put the few copper coins he had just recovered on the money belt.

"Young master, if you really have the heart, I can do it for you!" Lindsay didn't know when he appeared behind Li Zijun.

Li Zijun hesitated, took out five gold coins and handed them to Lindsay.

Seeing that Lindsay actually took out the gold coin, the others didn't think anything about it, but Wendy's face changed, and then she looked at Li Zijun.

When Lindsay left, she had already handed over all the money in her pocket to Wendy, and Wendy remembered this very well. It was also for this reason that she noticed that Lindsay had stood behind Li Zijun, and she was very sure that these gold coins must have come from Li Zijun, and a mystery rose in her heart. But this is not the right time to say anything, Wendy is busy with the grain merchant to determine the amount of grain.

"Xiexie, you!" Wendy said with a solemn expression as she came to Li Zijun's side.

All the family property of Wendy's group was only exchanged for more than 10,000 catties of food in the end. Wendy borrowed ten more wagons from the bazaar, and they were carrying the grain back to the tribe.

"You've already thanked you!" Li Zijun knew what Wendy meant, but he was still pretending to be confused.

"It's not a gift from you, it's a gold coin to sell grain!"

You don't have to worry too much. Li Zijun did not deny it.

"When Mr. Lindsay started saying that you were a nobleman, I thought he was joking! I don't think there's a copper or silver coin on you! I now think he's right. ”

"In addition to being a nobleman, I am also a merchant who came here to do business, and it is normal for me to have some gold coins on me to defend myself. ”

"Really?"

"What do you think?" Li Zijun smiled.

"I still have a question, the grain merchant seemed to want to say something, you weishenme stop him. Li Zijun deliberately diverted the topic.

"I know what he wants to say, and I won't agree to it, so there's no need for him to continue. ”

"Oh, can you satisfy my curiosity?"

"He wants me to betray the girls in my tribe, and I must not send my sisters into the hands of those brutes and let them spoil them! Wendy said firmly.

"But I heard Sister Baili say that there are more than 10,000 people in your tribe, and even if you save this food, you won't be able to eat it for long, what are you going to do next?"

"Our tribe still has some grain in stock, and this year, the water and grass around our tribe are dense, and the milk of cattle and sheep is sufficient, so there should be no problem in surviving these two months. After this period of time, it should be decided whether Edlaide can catch it, as long as the border is lifted, the price of food will naturally be lower. When the time comes, I will do a few more transactions, and I believe that I can still get some more money, and we will have to survive until the autumn harvest anyway. Although Wendy said it with confidence, Li Zijun saw deep worry in her eyes. It's just that Li Zijun doesn't know what method to use to solve Wendy's problem, so he can only choose to be silent.

Although Wendy's plan was good, it was exactly what he said: life is not as good as it should be! Before they could return to the tribe, a group of people had already arrived there to wait for them
