Chapter 9
Ziyu drove a mule cart covered with cotton cloth and linoleum, and gathered at the gate of the city with the jingling sound and accompanied by the swaying radish strips and cabbage leaves on the cart.

"Hahaha, little brother can't move!"

Wang Guanshi, who had heard that Ziyu had prepared a lot of things, saw that the mule cart he was driving was full of things, and there was even a large bundle of fodder tied on the roof.

"Hehe, Guanshi Wang laughed at me. I'm not taking my sister with me, so I want to prepare more."

Ziyu smiled and handed the two ingots of silver ingots with several scratches to Guanshi Wang, if it wasn't for the fear that both carriages could be used.

Steward Wang habitually weighed the silver ingot in his hand, put it into the bucket bag he was carrying after confirming that it was correct, and looked around the mule cart.

"This design is good. The front can be opened to block rain and snow, and the hooks at the back are also very suitable, just to fix the outer layer of linoleum to the compartment."

Steward Wang opened the curtain, and saw that there was still a layer of taut muslin inside, and more than half of the compartment was piled up with things. He was a successful boy.

Seeing that everyone was present, Steward Wang got into the front carriage, and the whip in the driver's hand made an empty sound, and the team started slowly.

Ziyu, who was waiting by the side, saw that there were 28 carriages and mule carts in total, but twenty of them were empty, and there were five carriages and mule carts following behind.

There were 30 people following them on horseback, and each car had two middle-aged men driving the caravan, which was quite a caravan.

The team members are all fierce and fierce, and they are not easy to mess with at first sight.

Except for Steward Wang, all the caravans were dressed in uniform black uniforms, and everyone had a horsewhip, which gave people a capable and sturdy feeling.

Ziyu, who was at the end of the queue, was fully armed with only her eyes, nose and mouth exposed. She was wearing a big cotton cap, and a piece of linoleum was tied in front of her to keep out the wind.

The biting cold wind in the early morning mixed with the wind and dust brought up by the vehicle in front beat the dusty layer of purple jade blue cotton robe.

...

At noon, the sky was gloomy and the north wind was blowing.

Pedestrians on the road turned sideways to avoid the wind and sand, and the forward convoy showed no signs of stopping, but instead accelerated their speed.

Ziyu rubbed her hungry stomach, took off the water bag on her waist to drink water, and was full of energy for a cold war.

[No wonder there are two drivers for each car, what a miscalculation! 】

"Brother, I want to pee!" Zi Luo, who was blushing, opened a corner of the front windshield and poked her head out.

"Piss in the chamber pot, the one tied in the corner, and eat the snacks in your backpack when you're hungry."

Ziyu touched the curtain with her elbow, Ziluo put down the curtain obediently, and fiddled with herself in the carriage.

She reached into her padded robe and took out a large steamed bun. She gnawed on it as soon as she turned her eyes, but her eyebrows twitched when a guard turned her head inadvertently.

...

At the time of You, there was light snow, and the number of pedestrians and vehicles on the road became less and less.

"The car behind speeds up, and you can rest after walking for a while, the weather is bad, pay attention to safety!" A guard slammed his horse back and shouted.

Turning into the trail, a village in the distance came into view, and the group couldn't help speeding up against the wind.

The marching convoy did not enter the village, but stayed at the head of the village near the water source.

After Wang Guanshi got off the car, he took two guards into the village to greet people.

The people in the convoy were busy feeding the animals, burying pots for cooking, and setting up tents, all in an orderly manner.

Ziyu jumped off the mule cart to stretch her frozen legs, looking around.

"Mother, what the hell is this place, there is a village, why don't you go in and stay overnight.

I don't want to live in the wild, it's not safe! "A delicate girl's voice came from the big carriage in front.

"According to your elder brother's arrangement, when the next town arrives, mother will find you the best hotel to stay in."

Ziyu listened to the words of the mother and daughter, and led the mule cart away from the troublesome body. She didn't like to be abused.

All the good positions were occupied by the convoy, so Ziyu picked a place not too far away, took off the fender and carried Ziluo out of the car, and unloaded the mules to feed them with water.

In order to prevent the car from sliding away accidentally, a flower hoe was pulled out from the interlayer to plan two shallow pits behind the wheels.

"Xiao Luo, watch some mules."

Zi Luo obediently stood in front of the mule that started to eat grass, and she didn't cry when she saw her brother carrying a small wooden bucket to fetch water.

Ziyu was busy fetching water from the small river to filter, and when the mules were fed and put on again after serving the mules, the old and the young went out of the village together with Steward Wang with a torch.

Behind them were seven or eight men and women carrying loads. Under the light of the torches, it was not difficult to see that there were firewood, fresh vegetables with mud, small pots and dustpans with lids.

"Everyone stop what they're doing. This is the head of Huanghua Village. I have a few words I want to tell everyone." Steward Wang greeted everyone.

"Hi everyone, old and young, everyone is welcome to Huanghua Village, and those who need it can come to the village to stay overnight.

At night, please be careful of the candlelight and don't trample on the crops.

Here are some firewood and food brought by the villagers spontaneously, please help me a lot.

Another point, please refrain from entering the village in the middle of the night in the dark, as there are guards in the village at your own risk. "

The old man's half-soft and half-hard words really sounded interesting, and Ziyu was the first to step forward to respond.

"Thank you, old man. I want a bundle of firewood and two cabbages. Do you have any eggs?"

"Haha, my brother is refreshing, Dunzi hasn't brought the things from your house here for my little brother to choose."

The old man stroked his beard and roared back, full of air.

A simple and honest middle-aged man carried a load and ran a few steps, stopped in front of Ziyu and opened the lid.

"Brother, eggs cost three pennies each, cabbage three pennies each, and some homemade pickles and hot sauce."

The innocent-looking middle-aged man introduced his products without any pause.

Ziyu smiled and bought twenty eggs, two small cans of pickles, hot sauce, two cabbages, and a bundle of thin sticks of firewood.

"Thank you little brother, the total is 51 Wen, and I charge you 50 Wen!"

Dunzi smiled innocently, but a shrewdness flashed in his eyes.

Ziyu happily counted out 50 Wen coins and handed them to Dunzi. When she left with the things, some people crowded around to buy them.

In the end, the remaining things of the villagers were wrapped up by the caravan, and everyone took what they needed and returned happily.

A carriage and a mule cart also left with the village chief.

...

Ziyu lit a bonfire not far from the mule cart, and when the pot was buried for cooking, the people in the caravan had already eaten.

Add two tablespoons of meat jelly to the boiled pot, finely shredded cabbage, and crack three eggs.

The two-palm-sized dough was spread out in the left hand, and the kitchen knife in the right was slicing the dough. Zi Luo, who was guarding the fire in front of the stove, opened her mouth wide in shock.

"Xiao Luo shut her mouth, her teeth are about to fall out!" Ziyu joked.

Zi Luo, who was smeared with black hands, put her hands on her chin with her blushing face, leaving a few black marks as she wished.

"Hahaha, it's hard enough to be your elder brother, Ziyu!"

Guanshi Wang, who came here after smelling the fragrance, really admired him for being able to do everything at a young age, and he was better than many big men.

"Wang Guanshi laughed at me, I have to live well if I live, not to mention there is a little Douding who can't live without.

If you don't mind, come and try my craft. "

"Haha, then I'm welcome!"

Steward Wang, who travels all over the world, often suffers most from eating food on his business journeys, and every time he stews in a few big pots, it tastes like pig food.

Over time, he also had enough to eat.
