The daily life of a charming girl who made a fortune in ancient times

Chapter 67

However, Lin Ruyu took a closer look and found that there were many straw huts built on the slopes that were not submerged in the water. People standing or sitting in the huts were all staring at the big boat.

This gaze made Lin Ruyu feel that her two big Lin boats looked like two pieces of fat.

It seems that the danger tonight comes not only from An Ziyuan's lackeys, but also from countless hungry wolves on the slope.

"Let's go another fifteen miles and enter the pier of Wangping Town to spend the night. I have some friendship with the chief of Wangping Town. With him around, these people on the hillside are nothing to worry about."

Lin Ruyu looked back at Shen Ge who was standing at the door of the room, and said with a smile, "Brother Shen is indeed the boss of Wusha Town, he has already made friends all over the world at a young age."

What is a young age?Like how big you are.Shen Ge raised his sword eyebrows, and "kindly" reminded, "'Although I'm only three years older than 'Second Sister', I've traveled with Third Uncle many times, and of course I know more people than Second Sister."

cut!
Although my sister looks only fourteen now, but with the 17 years of being an orphan, my sister is already 31, so I don't care about teenage brats like you.

Lin Ruyu snorted secretly and asked, "Is your injury better?"

Shen Ge, who thought he had won the quarrel, was beaming with joy, "After resting for a day, most of them have recovered. Tonight, I will keep watch."

From Shen Ge's point of view, as long as he doesn't feel dizzy, it's fine. The knife wound on his body?It's all trivial!
Resting for a day will make most of it better?Lin Ruyu really wanted to go up and punch him, to see if he was okay.

"Want to watch the night? It depends on whether my uncle agrees or not."

Shen Ge smiled brightly, "Then let's take a look."

When the boat arrived at Wangping Town, it was already dark.

The wharf and trees outside Wangping Town have been swallowed by the flood. The town gate with two lanterns hanging and bundled bamboo poles looks extremely simple and shabby.

Before the militiaman on duty on the town wall could speak, the leader of the ship shouted loudly, "I am waiting for the merchant ship of the Lin family from Xuanzhou who went west to deliver medicinal materials two days ago. Please, brothers, open a boat workshop that can accommodate two large ships. We want to Spend the night in the stockade."

"Wait—" the militiaman on the town wall replied, and ran to deliver the message.

Since ancient times, there are ships in the south and horses in the north. Horses have stables and boats have boat workshops.As the name suggests, Chuanfang is a place where boats can be parked.

"Wharf of Wangping Town is only half a day's boat ride away from Yixian Gorge. In order to prevent bandits from coming and making trouble, the town has built many boat yards to accommodate boats overnight. After the boat enters the boat yard, the townspeople will help guard the boat. If the goods are damaged or lost in the shipyard, the owner of the shipyard will pay double the price.”

Liu Xuliang, who reported to Shen Shang about the situation in Wangping Town, changed the subject and said in a low voice, "As far as my subordinates know, Xu Qiankui, the village head of Wangping Town, has a good personal relationship with the first-line bandit boss. The news that the bandit boss was killed must have already spread. We have arrived at Wangping Town, we must be careful not to be made dumplings by people from both sides tonight."

Shen Shang nodded straightly. The Yixian Gorge and Wangping Town are not far away but they can live in peace. There must be something tricky in the dark, but it will not be too dangerous tonight. "Xuliang doesn't know something. There are people on our boat who have never been friends with Xu Qiankui."

Liu Xuliang, who was affectionately named by the hero in his heart, was full of excitement, "Who are you always talking about?"

Shen Shangzhi and You Rong said, "Wusha Town, Shen Ge."

Shen Ge?Have not heard.

But this does not prevent Liu Xuliang from flattering, "No matter where my uncle is, there are many talents around him."

When the two boats parked in the shipyard, Liu Xuliang saw Shen Ge walking into the room, his eyes were so shocked that he couldn't drop his eyes, "Uncle...uncle, he, he..."

"He is Shen Ge."

Of course Shen Shangzhi understood why Liu Xuliang lost his composure, because Shen Shangzhi's eldest son, Shen Wenliang, once guarded Qingzhou with Xu Shaobiao, and Shen Ge's appearance was exactly the same as Shen Wenliang.

Shen Shangzhi felt pain in his heart, but his face was calm, "Shen Ge, this is the head of the escort Liu of Zhengping Escort Bureau in Xuanzhou."

Shen Ge clasped his fists in salute, "Your heroic deed of recovering the ten thousand taels of dart silver from Shuangjianzhai is like thunder to Shen Ge's ears. We are lucky to see you today."

The most glorious moment in Liu Xuliang's more than forty years of life was the incident mentioned by Shen Ge, which was also the capital for him to brag about drinking, but in front of Shen Shangzhi, this incident was not worth mentioning at all.

Liu Xuliang cupped his fists, "Subordinate..."

Before Liu Xuliang finished speaking, Shen Shang said straightforwardly, "Xuliang, you step back first."

"Yes." Liu Xuliang stopped immediately, saluted Shen Ge deeply, and retreated.

After the door was closed, Shen Ge calmed down and asked with a smile, "Uncle and Biaotou Liu have known each other for a long time?"

If not, how could Liu Xuliang, who was rumored to be so proud that he could only look at people with his nostrils, give such a great gift to his nameless self.

He must have mistook himself as a direct descendant of his uncle.

Shen Shangzhi said briefly, "Well, the old man had met him several times when he was in Qingzhou. Is Ge Er's injury better?"

"It's much better." Shen Ge raised his arm to prove that his injury was all right, "Uncle, I'm going to visit Chief Xu right now, and I won't go back to the boat for dinner tonight."

Shen Shang nodded straight, "Let Lu Zheng and Liu Xuliang go with you, you have to be more careful, you are injured, and don't drink alcohol."

"It's enough for me to go alone." The slightly childish Shen Ge was confident, "Don't worry, I will return safely."

Shen Shang stared at him for a long time before he nodded, "Okay, go early and return early."

"Follow the order." Shen Ge smiled mischievously, turned and exited the door.

In the room, Shen Shang raised his hand and pressed his forehead, tears welled up in his eyes.

Seeing Shen Ge coming down from the boat, the steward of the shipyard who was greeting the head of the ship took a few steps forward to salute, "It's great that you are safe and sound. After the flood came, the village head and his old man missed you every day. .”

Shen Ge clasped his fists in return, "Uncle Luo..."

"Brother Shen, Brother Shen!" Before Shen Ge could finish speaking, he was interrupted.

Hearing this cute cry, Lin Ruyu quietly pushed the window open a crack, and saw a girl of fourteen or fiveteen fluttering her dress like a white butterfly, running towards Chen Ge.

This scene, tsk tsk...

Seeing Xu Yuefeng running over, Shen Ge turned his head subconsciously.Lin Ruyu, who peeked at the gossip but was caught by the righteous master, immediately pushed the window shut in a panic.

"Chen Ge—" Xu Yuefeng rushed over to hug Shen Ge.

Shen Ge retreated a few steps to avoid it, and then asked Xu Yuefeng, who was wearing a white dress with a white hairpin, "Sister Xu family, at home..."

"Woooo..."

Hearing Shen Ge ask about this, Xu Yuefeng couldn't help crying anymore, "My grandma, second aunt, third aunt and two nephews were all washed away by the water, and Ah Weng also fell ill. Brother Shen, hurry up and come back to me." Let's take a look at home."

A Weng is grandfather, which is a commonly used appellation by local people.

The flood came quickly and fiercely, and many old and weak women and children died in the flood.When Shen Ge heard that the Xu family lost such a person, he felt very uncomfortable, and while hurriedly following Xu Yuefeng, he asked, "Did you send someone to look for it?"

"A lot of people were sent out, but there was no news after searching for several days." Xu Yuefeng's voice was full of tears.

Lin Ruyu opened the window again, looked at Shen Ge walking as if his arms and legs were not injured, and pressed his lips tightly.
