Chapter 874

Xiong Wu introduced to Feng Jiuxiao that there are three optional routes to reach Lingxiao City, which can be divided into three routes: far, middle and near.

Among them, the far route passes through two large cities and two small cities, the near one passes through a large city and a small city, and only the middle one passes through a small town, which is considered the best route.

Of course, he knew that what Feng Jiuxiao meant was that it was best not to pass through the town, but there was no way to go around the town.

When he finished speaking, Miss Yan began to pick faults, "What do you mean there is no way to go? There is no way in this world. If there are more people walking, there will be a way! Since Mr. Feng doesn't want to disturb the people, you should find it. A better route, avoiding that town!"

Xiong Wuxin said: I am no longer a member of your Yan family, you are still there with me, woo blah blah blah!He almost wanted to scold back!

But he thought again, if he went back on the spot, it would appear that he was too heartless and unrestrained!Anyway, I am also a master of the Nine Realms!He forced himself to suppress his anger, and said lightly: "If you go around, you have to go through the deep mountains and old forests. The road is difficult and easy to get lost, and if you are not careful, you may encounter a hunter's trap. Precipitous and dangerous shoals, we can’t always climb mountains and wading, can we? It’s unheard of to climb up cliffs on horseback. It’s hard to imagine how to get there. Not to mention fighting with others in Lingxiao City, it would be nice to be able to stand there without getting tired!"

Miss Yan snorted coldly, "Shout! You are still not convinced that you are stupid! You have a new master, right?"

Xiong Wu knew that it would be of no benefit to fight her at this time, so he just shut up and didn't speak.

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Then take the middle road and try to pass through the town at night, so as to avoid disturbing the people as much as possible." The implication is to minimize the disturbance as much as possible, but it doesn't matter if it disturbs a few!You can't cancel his whole plan just because you are afraid of scaring some people!

set off!

More than a dozen tall horses walked in front, followed by a giant, colorful tiger, and the whole team marched through the mountain pass all the way to the northeast.

As we walked, the dark clouds in the sky gathered again, and the dots of snowflakes began to fall down again at some point, gradually getting bigger.

Maybe this road is really remote, maybe it's because of the snow, I haven't met any pedestrians after walking for a long time.

Feng Jiuxiao felt a little emotional, "The Liaodong side is vast and sparsely populated. It stands to reason that the land is vast and rich in resources and rich in specialties. As long as it is well managed, this side should not be much worse than the Central Plains."

Xiong Wu smiled and said: "Young master, you are joking. Liaodong is a safe and cold place. The traffic is blocked and farming is backward. How can it compare with the Central Plains? There is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. The four seasons are distinct in the Central Plains, and farming yields twice a year There are even three harvests, but Liaodong harvests once a year, especially in winter, where there is cat winter for half a year, but people in the Central Plains can make a living all year round, which is far behind!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "What you said makes sense. The long winter does affect the cultivation of food. For the same one mu of land, the yield is at least half that of the Central Plains. Day after day, year after year, the gap is getting wider and wider. Big!"

Xiong Wudao: "So Emperor Liao never forgot to march into the Central Plains, especially now that Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures are in the territory of Daliao, and the wealth they brought to Liao is quite amazing. Compared with Liaodong, it is even more obvious, which prompted Liao Emperor to annex it. The determination of the Central Plains!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "What wish or ambition does Yan Lingxiao have?"

Xiong Wudao: "He really doesn't have the heart to be an emperor, but he has a hidden disease that he always wants to cure!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "I know, is he married but has no children?"

Xiong Wu's eyes flickered, "That's right!" He didn't expect Feng Jiuxiao to know such a thing!
Feng Jiuxiao said: "If he can't heal himself, won't he ask a famous doctor for help?"

Xiong Wudao: "He definitely doesn't want outsiders to know about this disease."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Hehe, people in this world are really strange sometimes. They really want to save face and suffer. I believe this trivial matter is not a problem for the Cheng family. After all, they are a family of medicine, and they are known as the best in the north and the south with the Gongsun family. If the family takes action, his disease can be cured in all likelihood."

Xiong Wudao: "The Yan family and the Cheng family are in turmoil now. How could Mr. Yan go to ask the Cheng family? And the family ugliness should not be publicized. Even if he went to ask the Cheng family, the Cheng family agreed to the diagnosis and treatment. He would still worry about the Cheng family leaking the truth." His secret!"

There are three kinds of unfilial piety, no descendant is the greatest!
Yan Lingxiao is not filial to her parents!
A man can't easily say that he can't do it, but in fact he just can't do it!
He is incompetent to his wife!
So it's hard to imagine that he can hold his head up in the eyes of these people!

"What's the situation with Mr. Xiong now?"

"Master Xiong passed away just last year! Mrs. Xiong passed away the year before last."

Miss Yan suddenly said angrily: "What are you asking about my parents?"

Feng Jiuxiao replied seriously: "Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win the battle!"

Miss Yan said: "You are a pervert, willing to inquire about other people's privacy."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Okay, whatever you want!" He then asked some questions about the defense of Lingxiao City.

Xiong Wu naturally knew everything and said everything.Miss Yan snorted coldly: "Traitor!"

Xiong Wuzhi pretended not to hear, and only communicated with Feng Jiuxiao.He knew that as long as he hugged Feng Jiuxiao's thigh, everything would be fine!As for others, who would dare to speak up if Feng Jiuxiao didn't speak?

Unknowingly, the sky was overcast and the snow was falling hard. It gradually became heavy snow, and the snow on the ground became thicker and thicker.

"A dozen li further ahead is Hongshilazi Town!" Xiong Wu said.

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Are there many people in Hongshilazi Town?"

Xiong Wudao: "Not many, less than two thousand households."

Feng Jiuxiao frowned, "Less than two thousand households is not a lot? There are quite a lot of people!"

Xiong Wu pointed at the heavy snowflakes flying all over the sky, "My lord, no one goes out in this weather, it's just right not to pass through Hongshi Town at this time!"

Feng Jiuxiao thought about it too, no matter how many people there are, as long as there are cats on the road at home, it means there is no one on the road.He asked Xiong Wu: "Is there someone from Lingxiao City in Hongshi Town?"

Xiong Wudao: "Yes!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "What's wrong with this small town? Is it worth Mr. Yan sending someone to watch here?" Now that he has penetrated into the hinterland of Liaodong, it is natural to find out as much as possible about the situation here, maybe in the future when the two countries fight Come in handy!
Xiong Wudao: "The forest here is mainly dominated by rich wood, such as red pine, larch, oak, linden, willow, yellow pineapple, walnut catalpa, poplar, yellow pine, white bark, white birch, white cow, and elm , banlazi, willow, etc. Wild plants such as moss and fern in the forest are also very rich, and there are hundreds of species such as maga wood, echinacea, hazelnut, azalea, thorn rose, etc. The industry here in Lingxiao City is mainly selling For wood, as for moss and bracken, Mr. Yan doesn’t like it, so he let the local people pick it at will. But the person in charge here, Lao Liu, is a bit greedy for money, and even charges the people to enter the mountain.”

"Entry fee?"

"The top of the mountain is taken over by Mr. Yan, so naturally it belongs to Mr. Yan. Outsiders are naturally not allowed to go up the mountain, so the local people, especially the Jurchens and Koreans, went to the government to make a fuss, saying that their ancestors went up the mountain here since the Tang Dynasty. After digging wild vegetables, why did you suddenly have your surname Yan on this mountain? Besides, even if this country has changed hands, the mountain should be named Yelu and not Yan!"

"and after?"

"Later, the officials must discuss it with Lao Liu. Lao Liu is probably afraid of making things worse, so the matter will be left alone."

"Even ordinary people think about scraping the oil and water for such a trivial matter as digging wild vegetables, so he has to be full of brains when it comes to the timber business?"

Xiong Wudao: "That's for sure."

Miss Yan said angrily: "This old Liu, how dare you embezzle my Yan family's money?"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "It seems that this old Liu finally knows the importance. If he insists on caring about the small money, it will definitely arouse public anger. If it is not done properly, there will be a civil uprising. He will not be able to bear this responsibility at that time!"

Xiong Wu was stunned, "So that's the case, I thought Lao Liu stopped for the sake of the official's face."

Feng Jiuxiao sneered and said: "How much face can a master official have? You Mr. Yan is someone who listens to the heavens. You are a big man who can talk directly to the emperor and queen. He will have an official the size of a sesame seed in his eyes?"

He looked forward, expressionless, "After getting rid of Lingxiao City, the Daliao royal family owes me another big favor!"

He looked back at Xiong Wu and asked, "Should I encourage Lingxiao City to grow stronger? If so, wouldn't it be good for Lingxiao City to turn Daliao upside down?"

Xiong Wu laughed dryly and said, "Young master is a chivalrous man, so he should be sympathetic to others. If he did this, wouldn't the world of Daliao be filled with blood and corpses everywhere? The people of Daliao are also human beings!"

Suddenly, Feng Jiuxiao's eyes lit up!He stared at Xiong Wu without saying a word.Xiong Wu was so frightened that his spine shivered!
Unexpectedly, Feng Jiuxiao raised his thumb, "I didn't expect your level to be so high! Well said! The people of Daliao are also human!"
