Chapter 38 Herbal Medicine
Qian Zhu was the temporary leader of the three caravans, and he sent out the carriages himself. The three caravans had more than 70 carriages in total, including nearly a hundred donkey carts for pulling goods. The long line was like a dragon, and there were more than 200 guards alone. Including the coachman on the road and the accompanying servants, there are about 400 people in the team.

There were only less than 50 guards in total, but they guarded the intersection firmly, and the guards never took their eyes off the goods.

Qian Zhu's eyes were disgusted. Since the city was closed, people have been looking for the caravan every day, and it cost thousands of taels. Thinking of the next journey, Qian Zhu suppressed the irritability in his heart and said with a smile: "I have already checked out of the city. Once, as a businessman, I was always begging for peace and making money, and the soldier would definitely cooperate when he searched me, but there were girls and children in the car, and I asked the soldier to be merciful."

As he spoke, he sent a bag of silver over, the bag was bulging, at least 20 taels.

The defender happily took it and weighed the weight, and handed it to the soldier behind him, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say."

The only pity is that there are orders on it not to go too far, otherwise with so many goods, their brothers can make a fortune!
The search was very careful, the household registration was checked one by one, the road guide was carefully checked, and the boxes containing the goods were not spared.

Zhou Yu and Qian Zhu watched from the side, watching helplessly as the guards removed two baskets of grain, which was not considered to be hidden from inspection.

One hour after they set off again, the speed of the first day was very slow, and they were searched twice in total, like peeling skins, layer by layer of money from the caravan.

Resting in the wild at night, Yang Xi came down to breathe the fresh air, and drank the hot soup again, before his stomach subsided.

Zhou Yu didn't see his family all day, and came back to accompany him for dinner, knowing that his daughter-in-law had morning sickness and accompany her to walk around the neighborhood.

The two didn't go far, Zhou Yu said, "We didn't go out of Guanxian County after one day, but we can go out of Pingzhou in seven days at this speed."

Yang Xi frowned, "I went through two searches today, and the number of searches will only increase as you get closer to the border."

Zhou Yu was helpless at this time, "I have no choice, the caravan has to pay a price to leave."

This is still the famous Qian family, Jiang Wang dare not go too far, and other small businessmen dare not go on the road.

Yang Xi said leisurely: "I heard that a quarter of the Qian family's goods are medicinal materials."

"Yes."

Yang Xi worried, "Medicinal materials are war preparation materials, and the Qian family can't keep the medicinal materials if they want to leave Pingzhou."

Zhou Yu lowered his voice, "Qian Zhu understands in his heart."

Yang Xi said: "In the ancient past, we were still too closed, and we knew too little information."

If you know more, you can also refer to the reference.

Zhou Yu felt bored in his heart, "We were too busy to take care of ourselves in the ancient past."

Every day I think about how to live and where to pay attention to external information.

Zhou Yu added: "Qian Zhu invited me to become a gentleman in the Qian family, but I refused."

Not to mention that they had a purpose, even if they didn't, he wouldn't go to the Qian family. The Qian family was a relatively well-known merchant family in the south. In troubled times, it was fat, which meant constant trouble.

Yang Xi frowned and said, "Qian Sandong's family won't stop us from leaving, right?"

Zhou Yu, "I will be careful."

Yang Xi was relieved. The two were afraid that their family would be worried about going back. They didn't see Yang San when they came back. Yang Xi asked, "Where did Yang San take Li Zheng?"

Zhou Xiaodi pointed not far away, "Drinking!"

Yang Xi and his wife looked over, and the boy had been mingling with the guards in one day. He could vaguely hear that Brother Yang would be looking for him for something in the future, and so on. He didn't know how long he had known each other.

Yang Xi, "."

Zhou Yu cleared his throat and smiled, "This kid is amazing."

It's really amazing. On the fourth day of the trip, Yang San had already eaten with the servant of Qian Sandong's house. Qian Dongjia knew about Yang San and asked Zhou Yu about it.

I saw soldiers escorting people from time to time along the way, all of whom wanted to escape the people of Pingzhou. There were many smart people in troubled times. Some of them escaped successfully, and some were captured. Among the escorted people, there were no strong laborers.

Every time Yang Xi sees that his heart is dull, the morning sickness becomes more and more serious. Now he can only eat sour pickles to suppress it, and finally he grows fat and loses weight.

Fruits are hard to find in winter, Yang Xi thinks of the scene of the pregnancy of the modern cousin, and then thinks about the ancient self, Yang Xi is sad for the child in his belly, thinking that the child can't help worrying, he didn't eat much to make up his body, and ran all the way. , I don't know how much nutrition the child lacks!
Zhou Yu tried to accompany his daughter-in-law as much as possible, and after listening to her worry, "the child must be safe."

Yang Xi squeezed Zhou Yu's hand, "I don't want to give birth to this child, whether it's a boy or a girl."

It's not just the problem of the ancient living environment, she also doesn't want to be pregnant anymore and worry about the development of the child, two children are enough.

Zhou Yu, "If you don't mention it, I also want to say that I won't give birth."

He is more afraid than his daughter-in-law, and is deeply afraid of an accident.

The two negotiated very well, completely forgetting that ancient times are not modern, and it is not easy to avoid harming the body.

Resting at noon the next day, Yang Xi found out what Yang San had recorded, and asked casually out of curiosity, "What do you remember?"

Yang San didn't hide it either, and handed over the booklet generously, "Sister-in-law will know by looking at it."

Yang Xi was stunned when he opened the first page, and then continued to look at it. The roster of people made by this kid not only recorded detailed basic information such as age, but also recorded clearly the origin and expertise.

The first page is about Wang Orion and his son, and Wang Orion is good at horses, and he wrote it twice! .

Yang Xi closed the book and looked at the young man carefully, but the young man looked embarrassed and then retracted his gaze, "Not bad."

Yang San's thoughts moved, "Sister-in-law, I think you have the ability."

"so what?"

"Hey, if my sister-in-law doesn't mind talking to my brother about what you can do?"

Zhou Yu came over and listened to this sentence, "Don't make up your mind, kid."

Yang San, "!!"

The more he didn't know, the more he thought about it. His intuition was accurate, and he always felt that his sister-in-law had great skills.

When Yang Xi waited for Yang San to leave and talked about the booklet, Zhou Yu snorted, "I haven't learned my skills, so I'm too embarrassed to think about others."

Yang Xi said: "He does have something to learn, do you want to accept him as a disciple?"

Zhou Yu stretched out his hand, "I'll help you walk for a while."

Yang Xi smiled, didn't answer or refused, Zhou Yu had this in mind, they also had hatred and needed help and strength.

In the days that followed, the more you went to the border in Pingzhou, the more uneasy it became. Seeing that they were about to leave Pingzhou, the team was stopped again. This time, it was not easy to give money.

Inside the Zhou family carriage, Zhou Xiaomei was nervous, "Sister-in-law, will we be taken away?"

These days, I have seen many soldiers escorting people, and the little sister already has fear.

Yang Xi has a bottom line, "There will be a conclusion in no more than three days."

Now the caravan is deliberately left to dry, which shows that the caravan is asking for a lot. The most valuable thing for the caravan is not the food and fur, but the medicinal materials of the Qian family!
Qian Zhu's carriage, Qian Zhu was not reconciled, "I spent a lot of money and connections to purchase ten carts of medicinal materials."

Now the north is full of chaotic people, and it is difficult to buy precious medicinal materials. Bringing his ten carts of medicinal materials back will not only bring money to the Qian family, but also bring more protection from contacts.

Zhou Yu pointed out directly, "Now that I can leave Pingzhou smoothly, no one will stare at the caravan in the future."

Qian Zhu, "What if you don't give it?"

Zhou Yu smiled, "In the past few days, it has been reported that Bozhou is very chaotic. Soldiers like bandits are looting everywhere. When they enter Bozhou, it is not only medicinal materials that are lost."

If you don't eat or drink a toast, you will lose your life. Anyway, you can push it on the mountain bandits. When the time comes, you can push the mountain bandits as a scapegoat to explain to the Qian family, and you can earn a good reputation!

Zhou Yu concluded: "What you should be afraid of is that the other party will let you go if they don't want anything."

Qian Zhu, "."
