Chapter 1362 Famine and Natural Disaster 521
The bonfire burned until dawn. After a night's rest and making up for the sleep lost the day before, everyone in the team was in high spirits.
After breakfast, we set off again.
After walking twenty to thirty miles every day for ten days, we reached the hillside of the last mountain and saw a river of living water flowing in the distance. It surrounded the entire mountain and flowed through major rivers in the northwest, nourishing the local water and soil.
"Finally, we have seen the end." Guard Yu stood beside Yu Mingyi and said with emotion, "Fifteen days, a full fifteen days. We have been walking for half a month. If we repair the river channel, I don't know how long it will take. Madam Cheng, do we really want to repair it?"
The distance is too far, the mountain road is difficult to travel, and a large number of workers are needed.
Mingyi nodded slightly, her tone revealing a firmness, "I have to practice, no matter how difficult it is."
The Northwest is not short of money, and she has enough money to repair this river.
Guard Yu nodded and said nothing more.
Grandpa Ning smiled broadly. "It's only half a month's journey, which is not very far. When we build it, we have to dig from the Huoshui River and the place where we enter the mountain. When the whole river is connected, we can open up the road connecting the Huoshui River to the mountain."
Now that the map is drawn, it’s time to get busy.
It took me half an hour to walk down the mountain to reach the river. I hadn’t had a good bath for half a month. When I saw the water, I really wanted to take a bath.
However, there were too many people here and the place was not secluded; Mingyi sighed and endured it, as she couldn't take a bath in public.
However, the water in ancient times was truly clear. Whether it was clean or not was another matter, but it was truly clear.
"Madam Cheng, are we still going to take the mountain road back?" The way back needs to be planned well.
Mingyi shook her head, "No need, we took the mountain road to draw a map. Now that we have it, we can go back from the foot of the mountain."
“It will take a long time to get there.” We walked in the mountains for half a month. Going back and going around the foot of the mountain would take more than twenty days, right?
"It doesn't matter. The most important thing has been done. Let's see if there are any towns on the way. If there are any, we can buy a horse and ride back quickly."
After Mingyi finished speaking, everyone had no objection.
So everyone walked back around the foot of the mountain.
It took another five days of walking before we saw a small town with a few villages around it. The people in the town didn't live very well, but they were definitely able to get by.
However, it is difficult for a small town to buy more than a dozen horses!
They found a broker. There were only one or two brokers in the whole town. One specialized in buying and selling slaves, and the other had a wider range, which was the one they had walked into. It rented horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts, bought and sold servants, and sold and rented houses and fields.
Upon asking, I found out that there were only seven horses in the entire town.
This is not enough.
There were fifteen or sixteen guards accompanying him, and one horse could not be divided equally between two people.
"Brother Wang, are there any other towns nearby?" Guard Yu stepped forward to negotiate, but out of respect he did not directly call the man "broker".
Wang Yaren smiled and shook his head. "It takes two days to get to the next town by horseback."
"Are there other places in your town that sell horses?"
"I'm sorry, our town is small, and I'm the only one that sells them." Wang Yaren smiled and had a very good attitude, with a hint of eagerness to please. "There are only three gentry in our town, and the horses they use are essential for their families and are used to pull carriages. There are really no extras. Do you think seven horses are not enough, brother?"
Guard Yu nodded, looking a little worried.
"We have many people, seven horses are not enough, Brother Wang, can you find a few horses? Money is not a problem, we have urgent matters to attend to and need horses urgently."
Wang Yaren hesitated for a while and was also in a dilemma.
The town was too small, with a small population, and not many horses prepared; but big business was right in front of him, and he was reluctant to let it go.
"Brother, let me go to the nearby villages and look for a horse. If there is a strong horse, I will buy it for you and you can pay me later." Wang Ya gritted his teeth. If he succeeded in this business, he would earn enough money for a year. He had to give it a try. Guard Yu turned to Ming Yi and asked for instructions silently.
Mingyi nodded slightly, "We will stay in town for two days, just in time to rest up. Everyone has been exhausted these days."
"Yes." Guard Yu took out a fifty-liang silver note and placed it on the counter, saying, "Thank you for your trouble, brother Wang. We will give you the deposit first and make sure to find more horses. It would be even better if each person can have a horse. We have twenty-one people."
Wang Yaren nodded with gritted teeth, "I'll try my best and bring it back to you if I find it."
"it is good."
Once the deposit is paid, there is no need to worry about people defaulting on the payment.
If you really don't have eyes, then you are tired of living.
Get out of the dental clinic.
Mingyi and his men found a restaurant in the town and stayed there. After washing up and changing into clean clothes, he felt like he was reborn.
Mingyi washed the clothes she had taken off and hung them by the window of the house where she lived. They should be dry in two days. She could take them away directly then, but she couldn't bear to throw them away. Now, her clothes were all made of good materials, and many of them were only worn once, including the one she had just taken off, which she had only worn once.
However, it takes a bit long to wear it once, so I changed it after half a month.
After sleeping for half a day and a whole night in the restaurant, she completely recovered; after eating and drinking her fill, she relaxed.
When I walked out of the room, I saw the Ning family also having dinner in the lobby on the first floor.
"Mr. Ning, Mr. Ning, Mr. Ning, and Mr. Ning Yi."
Mingyi walked downstairs, greeting them as she walked.
The Ning family members looked up, smiled, and responded one after another.
"Ms. Cheng is awake. Did you sleep well?" Old Master Ning smiled kindly. He had changed his clothes and after a good rest, he seemed to have regained the elegance and wisdom he had when they first met.
Mingyi nodded, "You slept well. Your face looks rosy and you look happy, which shows that you have rested well."
You can tell without asking that Mr. Ning looks very good.
On the contrary, Ning Yi's face still looked a little troubled.
"Yes, I slept very well." Old Master Ning nodded repeatedly and pushed his eldest son on his left, signaling him to get up.
Ning Qing smiled and stood up, sitting with her son.
Old Master Ning pointed to the empty seat and said, "Madam Cheng, please take a seat. Thanks to your care along the way, the guards were injured. I wonder if they called a doctor yesterday?"
Although it has been ten days since the wound was healed, I feel relieved after the treatment.
"Guard Yu called a doctor for them yesterday, and they are now fine." As long as they don't have tetanus, everything is fine.
Her wound medicine is not just for show. Moreover, they also used alcohol for disinfection. The wound medicine she made also has the effect of disinfection and anti-inflammation. As long as the wound heals and there are no complications, it is cured.
"It's good that they are all right." Old Master Ning's smile deepened, and he asked, "Has Madam Cheng had her meal? If not, let's eat together. I'll ask Ning Qing to order a few more dishes."
Mingyi quickly waved her hand to refuse, "You guys eat, I've already eaten in my room."
"Okay, whatever you want, let's have breakfast first."
