Everyone in the Hongwei Escort Agency is highly skilled and bold, but they can't stand up to the large number of victims. They can even kill the old master with random punches.
"It doesn't matter if you don't leave Lin'an Mansion. Uncle Chen has always disliked the incompetence of his bodyguards, hasn't he? Now he has time to practice hard."
"What I'm saying is that it's just a pain for your father and me."
"I see you always enjoy it."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Cheng Daqian has really not been idle recently. It can be said that he is the only one busy in the entire Hongwei Escort Agency.
Busy beating people up.
"Compared to the men in your village, your Uncle Chen's guys are more energetic in training."
"..."
Cheng Xi suspected that Cheng Daqian went to work in the escort agency just so that there would be people there who could beat him up.
After lunch, the two of them walked out of Cheng's house. When passing by the East District, Shen Xingluo led them into another alley.
"Is this the Shen family who is going back to Fucheng?"
Cheng Xi wondered, the house was in a mess now, what was there to see?
However, after arriving, I discovered that the Shen family's yard in Fucheng had long since changed. It had been tidied up and a lot of new furniture had even been added.
"Ma'am, let's see if there's anything else you'd like to buy?"
"No, that's good. Is this why you weren't in Shenjia Village a few days ago?"
"Yes and no, I just arranged it here casually so that I can come back and live there when I have time in the future."
Chen Xingluo took her around the small courtyard and said, "Recently, many disaster victims in Fucheng have chosen to stay. I plan to recruit people to open an inn."
"Inn?"
"There are people coming and going at Huaishui Wharf, and there is an endless stream of businessmen from the north and south. The inn is the most well-informed place."
Understood.
So opening an inn is just a superficial thing, you go there just for the news.
Cheng Xi paused, "You don't just want to open an inn, right?"
Chen Xingluo praised, "Madam is smart. My father-in-law has been traveling all over the country with the Hongwei Escort Agency and it's been very hard. It's better to open more restaurants so that my father-in-law can rest."
"..."
You obviously want to expand your stall, why do you have to find such a nice excuse?
Not a human being!
Hey, wait a minute, this guy is a real white guy, he can't just mention Hongwei Escort Agency.
After thinking about it, Cheng Xi looked confused, "The escort agency's schedule is faster than that of ordinary people, so it is very suitable for carrying news, right?"
This isn't just an inn, it's also an escort agency.
A dull chuckle came from the side, "Madam always brings surprises to people."
"..." Thank you, but you will always scare people.
Shenjiacun, the center of public opinion, was still gearing up to open up land.
The price of Shen Xingluo Kai is not low. You can get 30 copper coins for a day's work, and three meals a day are included. The villagers are so happy that they don't want it.
What's more, Shenjia Village is now more united than ever before. Even if there is no money, there are still people rushing to help.
They knew very well that, let alone the newlyweds of the Shen family, their sons and grandsons learned a few tricks from Cheng Daqian, which they could use throughout their lives.
In this day and age, if you can learn real skills without becoming a disciple or giving gifts, it must be like smoke rising from your ancestral graves.
Shen Manyun stood on the ground and swayed back and forth with his hands behind his back, a smile on his face.
A thin figure came from the direction of the Shen family ancestral hall, "Uncle Shen, aunt asked me to inform everyone to go to the ancestral hall for dinner."
"It's already noon? Okay, I'll tell them."
"I'll go with you. It's faster for the two of us."
The young man did not turn back, but followed him slowly along the side of Shennong Mountain, looking at the farmer with a somewhat unfamiliar look.
Shen Manyun tilted his head and glanced at him.
Another look.
"Young man, you look like a scholar to me?"
"I studied for a few years when I was a kid. I didn't have any talent in this area and then gave up. Uncle Shen can just call me Su Zhan."
No talent?
How come I can tell at a glance that you are a scholar?
Shen Mantun couldn't guarantee anything else. He was famous for looking at people and employing people from all over the country. Could it be that he really made a mistake today?
However, this kid fled all the way from the north, and now he chooses to stay in Lin'an Mansion instead of returning home. Maybe he really is not a scholar...
Su Zhan's expression remained unchanged under his gaze, and he turned his head and smiled gently at him.
The sunshine at noon moved to the south. The villagers put away their hoes and walked towards the ancestral hall one after another. Shen Xingqi, Aunt Cuihua and others were putting food on the table.
The cabbage and meat soup exudes a wisp of aroma. The game is chopped into pieces and simmered in a large pot for two hours. The soup base shows a rich milky white color and is fragrant.
"It's time to eat!"
Aunt Cuihua yelled loudly, and everyone washed their hands and sat down to eat, slurping and shouting for another bowl.
"Hey, these people are really good at eating. Why do I see that everyone's appetite has increased a lot?"
"No, since I started running and boxing with the patrol team, my family can eat four steamed buns in one breath."
"The more you eat, the more you do. Look at the large fields at the foot of the mountain."
"Speaking of which, can Xingluo really grow crops after buying so much wasteland?"
The aunts in the village had nothing to do after they were busy, so they gathered around and started a new round of gossip.
Shen Xingqi, who was in the center of the storm, was shivering and couldn't bear it. For the first time, she regretted not following her sister-in-law to the city.
"Um...I'm not sure either?"
Alas~ why should she stay?
It feels so uncomfortable to know clearly what new grains my brother and sister-in-law are planning but can't tell.
When Shen Xingqi finally got out of the crowd, she saw Su Zhan coming over.
"Second Miss, the injured woman at home is about to wake up."
"Then go home quickly!"
The two of them hurried home. When they reached the door of Shen's courtyard, they heard a "bang" sound coming from inside. As they pushed the door open, a fist came towards the door.
"Second Miss, be careful!"
After all, Su Zhan is an ordinary person, and because of the master-servant relationship, he walked last. Seeing this, he was so frightened that sweat broke out on his back.
However, what shocked him was that the very powerful fist was intercepted in the air the next moment, and the person who intercepted it...
"Second Miss?!"
Shen Xingqi was very angry. She opened her eyes wide and stared dissatisfiedly at the room, "Why do you hit people so casually?"
In fact, the opponent was still a seriously injured patient, and all his strength was concentrated on this punch. Because he was intercepted by greater strength in the middle and held back by inertia, he made a muffled sound, and sweat began to drip from his forehead.
Shen Xingqi didn't let go, but she couldn't bear it and fainted again.
"Huh? Why did you faint again!"
Could it be that this is the porcelain that my sister-in-law mentioned?
Su Zhan came back to his senses and glanced at the fainted girl with a strange expression, full of doubts in his heart.
Didn't the master say that the injured girl was a master of martial arts?
That's it?
Before he could question the authenticity of that sentence, he saw the second young lady directly hugging someone taller than her, as if holding a light quilt.
"!"
