Traveling through the Prosperous Pastoral of Peasant Girls

Chapter 93
After breakfast the next day, they left Yu Kehuasheng and two crew members to guard the port, and then sailed out to Yajing Port.Jin Yang was afraid of meeting someone from the national teacher, so he didn't dare to get off the boat and show his face.Liu Tao didn't have so many scruples, and went shopping in Yajing Harbor with Wu'er Ma Jinqiang.Yajing Port is as prosperous as Liangshan Port, and because it is a port shared by Qinglang Country and Xiaoyan Country, it is even bigger than Liangshan Port.

Liu Tao bought some overseas black pearls and rare shells on the street, but Wu'er smelled the aroma of beef, and happily shouted to buy more than ten catties of sauced beef from a restaurant.Liu Tao agreed and let them move to the boat.

Daqian country does not allow the slaughter of farm cattle, and even farm cattle that die of illness are required to be peeled and buried deeply. Not only Wu'er, but also Liu Tao have been greedy for beef for a long time.I bought so much this time, I can finally eat it.

The big boat continued to drive north along the coast in the afternoon. Whenever he saw a large salt field along the way, Jin Yan ordered Fan Tong to get off the boat to communicate with the salt field. After docking, there is no need to go to each saltworks one by one to contact the goods.This place will be handed over to Fan Tong in the future, and he will send someone he can trust to take charge.

Most of these owners agreed to sell the boiled salt to them, so that they would not have to go to the port for transportation. If the tax department is not nearby, there is no need to pay taxes to the tax department. Of course, the price has dropped, not at 01:30. Most of them are about one or two silver for ten catties of boiled salt.They didn't return until the afternoon, when they reached the salt field hundreds of miles away.

Seeing that it was getting late, Fan Tong asked Jin Yan: "Master, Shark Island is not far away, what if we encounter pirates on the way?"

Jin Li said decisively: "If we really encounter them, they will be unlucky. We will show weakness first and prepare our guns and crossbows in secret. It would be best if they jump off the ship and help them. If there is no one left, they will all be wiped out. If the pirate's ship is good, we will Just keep using it, and if it doesn't match, just burn it!"

They contacted Yanba here. Su Xiaoge and Huang Ying had already brought half a carload of goods produced by Jinfu and two carrier pigeons to Qinglang Country for more than ten days. They left the goods for the wolf owner and distributed the rest to the wolf owner. came to see their relatives.

The princess was very satisfied with Huang Ying, and talked about her life with Su Xiaoge (Jin Ge) in the Jin Mansion.Huang Ying didn't hide it from them, she said that her family was hired by Jin Yan's family, and Brother Su was a bought slave.Later, he independently sold fur goods and earned enough money to support his family.

Jin Li, the son-in-law who was listening on the sidelines, said angrily: "Jing Ge, you are a soft-boned man. You are not a high official in the Qinglang Kingdom, but you are a slave to the enemy of the Dazhang Kingdom. Are you still a descendant of the Jin family? You are wronged by me. With your expectation and cultivation, quickly change the situation and lead the troops to subdue the great country..."

Ever since the father-in-law Jinli was defeated by the Dajin Kingdom, his leg was severely injured by the arrow of the crossbow. The arrow of the crossbow had hit people and horses several times. A leg was sawed off.Now that he is disabled, he is no longer the Generalissimo of the Qinglang Army, and the old master has delegated his official position to others, which made his character even more violent, and he lost his temper at every turn.

Brother Su didn't make loud noises with him, but just said calmly: "You led more than [-] soldiers to attack the Daqian Kingdom, but you have entered the Daqian Kingdom a few miles away, and you won't say anything about the loss of troops. The capital was besieged twice, and many good men from the Qinglang Kingdom died on the battlefield. How are their wives and children doing now? You should have thought of this outcome before launching the war, but what you were thinking at the time was revenge, revenge, you Don't even think about it, how did your hatred come from, if you don't provoke the Daqian Kingdom, can the Daqian Kingdom fight back?"

"Shut up, is this how you talk to your father?"

"It doesn't matter if I say it or not, look at our Blue Wolf Country, it has paid the war indemnity to the Daxiong Country, and now it has chosen a good daughter from the Blue Wolf Country to give them to them. Is this the achievement of you and the wolf lord? No, it's a crime!"

"Okay." Jin Li trembled angrily, "Now I see that you have a wife, and I can't bear to cut off your head and make your wife a widow. You'd better tell the wolf master what he said, and see if the wolf master doesn't kill you." The dog's head was cut off..."

Brother Su stopped reasoning with him, and went to the Qinglang Palace the next day. Walking on the streets of Fengcheng, most of the people were in tattered clothes and looked hungry. It can be seen that the life of the people in the capital is different from that before the war. It fell again, it was all caused by father and the old wolf lord insisting on going their own way, where can we talk about respect for such a royal family!

The royal guards still knew him. While he was waiting for the notification, he looked at the buildings in the palace. These were all rebuilt after the capital was captured by the Dazhang army in the war the year before last.This wolf lord's uncle had a good life, but he had to be bewitched by his father to become an enemy of Daqian, so his intelligence was somewhat low.

He was still thinking alone, when the inner eunuch came over and told him: "Lord Wolf is waiting for you in the apse, Second Young Master, please follow me."

Jin Yang followed him to the apse, and after saluting the wolf lord, the wolf lord gave him a seat. Brother Su looked at the old wolf lord in his 50s and said, "Uncle Huang, last year I advised you not to go to war with the Dazhang Kingdom. But they locked me up, so I don’t need to persuade you this year, how do you feel about the outcome of the war with the Great Kingdom?”

"Jin Ge, are you talking sarcastic?"

"Uncle, what's the use of my sarcastic remarks? Isn't everything too late?"

"Hey, I was bewitched by your father and the national teacher of Xiaoyan. I'm sorry for those warriors who died in battle! One mistake made a big mistake..."

"Uncle, do you really regret it?"

"Uncle, my intestines are green with regret!"

After the withdrawal of troops from the whole country last year, the lives of people who had just experienced the war became more difficult. Hundreds of people starved to death in Fengcheng in one winter.This year, the northern part of the Dazhang Country and most of the Qinglang Country are dry and rainless. When Su Xiaoge and Huang Ying crossed the boundary river, the water in the boundary river was almost dry. I don’t know how the people of the Qinglang Country survived this winter.

A few days ago, the wolf lord went to the street for a private visit. This time the wolf lord was really touched. The usual bustling streets are not as good as before.In the past, the bones of cattle and sheep thrown all over the street are almost invisible. The people in Beijing, who mainly eat beef and mutton, captured Fengcheng twice in three years and captured many people who had no time to escape, not to mention those who had no time to drive away. Cattle and sheep are not spared either.

Nowadays, people generally do not have enough to eat, and even many wealthy households in the past have a hard time. Most of them go out of the city to dig wild vegetables to eat.Some were so angry that they cursed in the direction of the palace on the street.The guard who followed him out of the palace was about to draw a knife to kill someone, but he waved his hand to stop him.

I saw my nephew today, and I know that he has a lot of resentment in his stomach, why is it different for me.He can only see what the nephew who came back from the country can do, so that the people of the whole country can survive this difficult winter.

What can little brother Su do? After thinking for a long time, he said: "Uncle, do you think there are any valuable things in our Qinglang country? If we sell the things and exchange them for food, and distribute them all to the people, maybe we can save the money." Some people's hearts..."

"Hey, apart from some BMWs in the palace, what else is valuable?"

"Uncle, I heard that you have stored a large amount of gold and silver treasures in the imperial tomb that you built in advance. During the two wars, the army of the Daqin Kingdom did not open the imperial tomb. Those things are supposed to be collected from national taxes over the years. What comes up, what is taken from the people should be used for the people.”

"What, that's something I'll only be able to enjoy a hundred years later, and you're calling their attention?"

"When a person dies, it's like a lamp goes out. Who knows whether you can enjoy it after death?"

"The national teacher of Xiaoyan Kingdom knew it well. He said that after death, people will enjoy the gold and silver in the tomb. In addition to gold and silver, there are also those who were buried, as well as cattle, horses and vehicles. Whatever you have in life, as long as you are buried, you can continue. enjoy……."

"You just believe what the national teacher said. If the tomb is stolen, wouldn't all the gold, silver and jewelry be prepared for the tomb robbers?"

"That national teacher knows astronomy above all and geography below. He knows everything about everything in the world. He said that my tomb will not be stolen within 1 years."

"Really?" A sneer appeared on the corner of Su Xiaoge's mouth: "He encouraged you to attack the Daqian Kingdom, what did he say at the beginning, and what happened afterwards?"

"Ah, of course it failed in the end. He said that it was because the little devil in hell came out to make trouble, which disrupted his plan. That little devil was named Jin Lian, and it was also because of him that the coalition forces in the Northland were defeated. Yes. He discussed with me that we should select the top warriors of the two countries and join forces to form a powerful assassination team. They would enter the capital of Daqian Kingdom to assassinate the emperor and that little devil. The most. Even if we don’t fight with the Dazhang Kingdom anymore, it would be good to kill that golden catastrophe and avenge our Three Kingdoms and several tribes, but I haven’t agreed to him yet?”

Brother Su was secretly startled, if he hadn't come to Fengcheng, how would he know such an important secret, Qinglang country and Xiaoyan country are under the planning of the national teacher, and such secrets cannot be known to outsiders.

He calmly said to the wolf master's uncle: "I have been doing business in their capital for the past few years in the Dazhang Kingdom, and I have had close contacts with the Jin Mansion of the Dazhang Kingdom. I am very familiar with Jin Li, If the national teacher comes to the palace, I can provide him with useful information. But when will the national teacher come?"

"He will come over in the next few days, and I will notify you then."

The wolf master also told his nephew Su Xiaoge that the national teacher is a frequent visitor to the Qinglang Kingdom, and after looting the Shuangzi Mountain that time, he obtained a lot of money and supplies.On the way, I came to the Blue Wolf Country to show off.Later, it was also mentioned that the surrounding area of ​​the capital of the Dajin Kingdom is very rich, and the capital is almost full of gold and silver, which aroused the appetite of me and my son-in-law....

As soon as he went back to the son-in-law's mansion and talked to Huang Ying, Huang Ying said: "Send a letter to the master immediately, let him make preparations earlier."

"No, we only have two carrier pigeons. We should wait a little longer. When the national teacher arrives, there will be important decisions to be made. We will wait and see. It will not be too late to send back the news at that time."

Three days later, the wolf lord sent someone to inform Su Xiaoge that the national teacher had arrived in the capital, and he would come to meet the wolf lord tomorrow morning.Brother Su entered the palace ahead of schedule the next day, and while going out, he was thinking of a way to expose the hypocrisy of the national teacher.

Huang Ying, who sent him out, said to him, "Look, the outer circle of the sun is dizzy. It's going to rain in the middle of the night, right?"

'It rains at three o'clock when the sun is halo, and the wind is at noon when the moon is halo' Regarding this proverb, Brother Su also heard it from Jinyan Liutao when he was in Daqian Country. He secretly laughed and planned to tell Uncle Wolf Lord as soon as possible.
