After everyone left, Cai Ze said to the three of them: "Young masters and officials are looking up to the stars. They must not be here for recruitment. Is there something important?"
Dr. Chen Liu scolded: "Don't talk nonsense."
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "The smoke from Mang's stove is gradually extinguishing, and he is eager to receive help from Chenliu Valley, so he sent his eldest son to come in person. He has no other intention."
Cai Zedao: "In that case, Chenliu's Valley will definitely arrive today, and the eldest son can go home and wait for him."
Mang Yin said: "Cai Qing is still here, who sent him home?"
Cai Ze said: "You don't need to ask too much, I will pay you in the morning and at sunset in the evening. The grain and vegetables will be delivered directly to your door."
Dr. Chen Liu said: "Cai Qing, why don't you tell the truth in front of me? Why are you trying to make things up?"
Cai Zedao: "This matter is possible but cannot be said. If you and I don't know it, then great things can be accomplished. If it is revealed, it will immediately fail."
Dr. Chen Liu wanted to press for more questions, but Mr. Hu Zhong dissuaded him and said, "Since Cai Qing is in control, Mang will thank you first. After the work is done, he will definitely reward him."
Cai Zedao: "There is no need to pay him. If you bring more people and cars, you want to escort me back to the city. I will just tie you up. Why bother to do such a big job!" After saying this, the sound of rolling carts was heard in the distance.
Mr. Hu Zhong's face turned slightly red and he said with a smile: "In addition to urging the grain trucks to be transported, the eldest son also has official duties. I can borrow the manpower of Chen Liu."
Cai Zedao: "In that case, I have to say retreat!" He gave a loose salute and turned to leave. Mr. Hu Zhong quickly stopped and said, "Cai Qing, please wait. The eldest son is out of the city and has important responsibilities for the country. Cai Qing is a great talent. I dare to ask for a helping hand!"
Cai Zedao: "My official's retainers are not Mang's retainers, so they dare not obey orders!"
Dr. Chen Liu shouted awkwardly: "Don't be rude!"
Cai Zedao: "The doctor is a retainer of the Mang family. If the Mang family has something to do, it is not the job of a doctor, but it is not the job that a minister dares to do."
Doctor Chen Liu said: "In that case, I order you to listen to Mr. Hu Zhong and let him drive you."
Cai Zedao: "First, the doctor ordered me to transport grain to Mang's Mansion in Daliang. The food has not yet arrived, and the mission has not been fulfilled, so I dare not accept the order. Maybe the doctor exempted me from the order of transporting grain, so I naturally let him be driven."
When Dr. Chen Liu was about to speak, Mr. Hu Zhong quickly stopped him and said, "I'm just being reckless. Sir, I have a mission, so I don't dare to work. Sir, do it yourself!"
Just as we were talking, Chen Liu's three-car reinforcement team had arrived. Seeing Mang Yin and three others talking to Cai Ze, everyone in the car stopped the car at a distance, got out of the car and waited. Unexpectedly, they saw Cai Ze carelessly. He bowed and walked away, seemingly not seeing the most powerful people in Chenliu City.
Dr. Chen Liu hesitated to speak and could only look at Mang Yin, and Mang Yin also looked at Mr. Hu Zhong with confusion. Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Cai Qing coincides with a certain person, and it is the only way to transport grain into the city. Now that Cai Qing has come forward, we can retreat and retreat, and it is important to do business."
Mang Yin said in surprise: "Business? Isn't the business just transporting grain? Also, what exactly are Mr. and Cai Qing planning? I would like to teach you."
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Without him, it's just the end of things."
Mang Yin was still puzzled and asked: "Is this the end?"
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Buy the grain with the merchants outside the city, and then buy it from the merchants in the city, that's all!"
Mang Yin suddenly said: "How do grain trucks from outside the city enter the city?"
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "There is no need to enter the city for grain carts outside the city. They can be purchased by any merchant outside the city."
Mang Yin said: "I see, it's wonderful! There is no need for grain trucks to enter the city, but the grain has already arrived. Wouldn't it be convenient from now on?"
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Do you know the way of a merchant?"
Mang Yin said in astonishment: "I don't know."
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "To whom will such a big man buy the goods, and from which family will he enter?"
Seeing the confused look on Mangyin's face, Mr. Hu Zhong persuaded him: "Dragons have their own ways, and snakes have their own ways. The eldest son only needs to take care of the temple, and there will be Li Shu taking care of the rivers and lakes, so I don't need to worry about it." Come on!" Then regardless of Mang Yin's confusion, he called Doctor Chen Liu and said, "Doctor, please find a secluded place where we can discuss matters."
Dr. Chen Liu then walked to the third car in the distance and asked a few questions. Then he came back and said: "Not far from here is the Chuitai ruins. Climb up and look far away. The scenery is clear and leisurely, and there are few people around. It is only a few miles away from Daliang, and there are no other people to disturb it. There is a pavilion above it. It is worth admiring. You can travel and discuss matters."
Mr. Hu Zhong asked: "What do you think, the elder?"
Mang Yin said: "It all depends on your decision."
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Just ask the doctor to make arrangements."
Doctor Chen Liu turned around and walked to the other three carriages. He gave a few instructions and discussed something, then turned back and said, "I'll just invite the two nobles to board the carriage and set off."
The three of them got into the car. Mr. Hu Zhong was still driving, and Dr. Chen Liu was on the right. All three of them were dressed in Qingjin. While the three people were boarding the car, three vehicles from a distance were slowly approaching in a line, and they came forward to salute the three people. Mang Yin slightly raised his hand, and Dr. Chen Liu said, "Your Excellency, Qing Jin, it is inconvenient for me to salute you, but please do it!"
Following the words, the car in the middle drove out first and headed north. Mr. Hu Zhong then lightly shook the reins and followed about ten feet behind the car in front. The other two cars were separated on the left and right, surrounding the car of Mang Yin and others. In the center. The four chariots formed a formation and headed northwest.
Chuitai is only twenty miles away. It is a low mound lying under the corner tower of Daliang City. At this time, the sky was getting brighter and brighter, and in the silent air, the sound of cars spread very far. The soldiers on the city wall had long discovered the carriages outside and inside the new building, and sounded the alarm. The commander came up to see them, but did not dare to act alone, so he called the soldiers up again. By the time Uncle Zu went to the city, the four chariots had already approached the edge of the city for five miles, and even the figures of people could be seen clearly. Uncle Zou observed for a while and said: "There are only four vehicles, and there is no serious problem. But watch where they go. They may be businessmen or envoys, but they must not be enemies. There is no need to report it." The car came closer, Uncle Zu said: "Wearing Qingjin, I'm sure he's a business traveler. ... Well, he stopped in front of the blowing stage... got out of the car. Could he be a spy? ... Bows and crossbows are ready. ... They went up to the stage and were spying. ...It's too far and can't be shot." The soldier was babbled, talking to himself for a while, giving orders for a while, and hundreds of soldiers gathered around him with their crossbows and arrows ready. One person said: "Perhaps he is really on a business trip, going up to Chuitai to enjoy the scenery."
"Look at your mother! It's such a pass now, dare to look at the scenery." Uncle Zub cursed rudely.
"Look, look, they are sitting down, as if they are discussing something!" Another soldier said.
"Shoot a loud arrow to drive them away." Uncle Zub finally made up his mind. If this group of people were discussing matters on the stage, he would never be at peace. He would always observe their movements. Drive them away and it will be over.
A soldier came over, bowed and nocked an arrow, and shot a loud arrow. The so-called ringing arrow is just a whistle made of bamboo tube attached to the arrow shaft, which can make a sharp sound in flight. This kind of arrow neither shoots far nor accurately, and only serves as a warning.
As an arrow was shot, a sharp whistle cut through the morning light. It was obvious that the people on the blowing platform turned around and looked back, but there was also the sound of running on the city wall - people at other city gates heard the sound of the arrow warning and ran away. Come and get some news.
Uncle Zou obviously didn't expect that a casually fired arrow would cause such a big noise. He looked slightly embarrassed, but said rudely: "It's no big deal. All the spies were driven away!" As he said this, he pointed to the blowing stand. .
Several people on the blowing stage seemed to understand the meaning of the sounding arrow. They all stood up, walked slowly along the blowing stage to the other side, and got off the stage.
Not long after, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the four vehicles headed east in a neat formation.
