The struggle history of dressing up as Gone with the Wind

Chapter 1276

At Yanquan, Cao Shi dug the salt, He Hui and the other two panniers were full, and they left Yanquan in a hurry.While sitting on the side resting, He Hui looked at Cao Shi apologetically; "Brother, I'm afraid my younger brother has caused you trouble again."

Cao Shi naturally knew what he was talking about, anyone with a discerning eye could see how unhappy Uncle Bai was just now.

Cao Shi patted his brother on the shoulder; "Why bother to say these things, besides, you all know the character of Uncle Bai these years, he probably blames Axiu for making his own decisions, it's not that he doesn't want to accept Yun'er, don't think so much."

He Hui looked at his elder brother and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. I'm afraid they will never be able to pay back what they owed their elder brother and sister-in-law for the rest of their lives.

Cao Shi reassured his younger brother and looked towards Yanquan; "With more and more people in the valley, more and more salt is used. Over the past five years, we have almost exhausted all the salt around Yanquan. , although this is a spring salt, some salt water will be spewed out from time to time, but it will not be a problem if it continues like this."

He Hui quickly put his mind on the business after listening to the elder brother's words.

"There is no way around this. We are short of salt, and His Majesty is also short of salt, because several rebel salt roads have long been broken. If we buy salt from outside, we may pay a high price. In fact, I have been thinking recently. Since there is a salt spring here, I don’t know if there are other places, there are many places like the Hundred Thousand Mountains that we have never been to, if we can find another place, it would be great.”

After hearing this, Cao Shi pondered; "I'm afraid this will not be easy."

"Yes! And we don't have much time."

Cao Shi knew exactly what the second brother meant.

"However, let's search for it as much as possible! When the time comes, let the third brother do the math. If it doesn't work, please ask Old Man Shi for help."

He Hui laughed when he heard the words; "Old man Shi is very ordinary, but I can see that he is unfathomable, and the man surnamed Chu is probably not simple. I used to think that people like them should be There are very few, and now I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse to meet two at once.”

"I'm not worried about old man Shi. He didn't have any malice towards us, and he didn't have any disputes. What I'm worried about is Chu Mo. When I see him, I always think of the man in red that we killed that day. I don't know him. Does it have anything to do with him?"

"That's what I'm worried about too. Did elder brother tell sister-in-law about this?"

"told."

"What did the sister-in-law say?"

"Your sister-in-law can see it. She said that Mi Li is Chu Mo's relative. Now that we have adopted Chu Mo, he has no reason to be unfavorable to us."

He Hui laughed when he heard this; "It's not unreasonable what my sister-in-law said, it's very likely that we are worrying unnecessarily."

Cao Shi didn't understand this truth, but now that Axiu was pregnant, he had to guard against it.

He Hui looked at the frowning elder brother, turned his mind and smiled; "Don't worry, elder brother, why did you forget old man Shi, we can all be sure that he is a man of great ability, and he followed us into the mountain The purpose is to accept my future nephew as an apprentice, under such a premise, my sister-in-law is equivalent to an extra layer of protection, how can he let others be against my sister-in-law."

Cao Shi's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this, and he thought about it instantly.

"It seems that I care so much that I forget it."

He Hui was relieved when he saw that his elder brother was thinking about it, and the two of them walked back with their backpacks on their backs after resting enough.
