There was a mission to keep them in the first place. Let as many people as possible learn everything about the Sun League and prepare for the future.
Wenxue won people's respect with her medical skills, and Qian Fu also did well with his talent and made many friends.
Jian Fang seems to be quite ordinary and has no characteristics, but he can fight and others don't dare to look down on him.
Seeing Qian Fu's cheerful smile, Wen Xue knew that this was really big business. She asked in a low voice: "Is it reliable?"
"Reliable. Pay first and then pick up the goods. They will transport them themselves. We are only responsible for making the medicine." Qian Fu explained, "Half of the money has been given, one hundred taels of silver. The remaining half will be paid when the goods are picked up. .”
Wen Xue felt relieved, but then thought about how much money was needed for such a large sum of money, "We don't have enough manpower, and it will take a long time to make it."
Qian Fu: "I have thought about this problem. To develop a drug store, it must have talents. It is difficult to support it by yourself. Now that you have established a firm foothold, it is better to recruit a group of apprentices and treat it as free labor."
Wenxue thought about it and felt that it was feasible. If it wanted to develop, it would need manpower. She was immersed in her research and had no thoughts about anything else. "Just make the decision. Let me know when you need me. Where is Jian Fang?"
"He is still opening up wasteland outside the city." Qian Fu said with admiration, "Jian Fang is really persistent and insists on opening up wasteland to grow rice."
Over the past year, Jian Fang focused on growing rice. There was no land in the city, so he went to open up wasteland outside the city. Seeing that he was doing well, Shen Tianlin sent five people to help him.
Jian Fang worked hard to cultivate paddy fields in the wasteland. After more than half a year, he finally had some results. Unfortunately, he was killed by a ferocious beast.
The secret observers laughed at Jian Fang for being a fool. If they could succeed, would they still buy rice from Pingcheng at a high price?
However, Jian Fang was not discouraged and gave up, and kept working hard. This time he personally guarded the fields, and finally achieved some results. He harvested more than 100 kilograms of rice from two acres of land.
Shen Tianlin had a long-term vision and immediately sent fifty people to Jian Fang to lead him to open up wasteland and cultivate the land.
The aristocratic families who were secretly observing were frustrated, but they didn't expect that the Shen family would take the lead. After several months of pushing and pulling, all the aristocratic families finally participated and started to open up wasteland outside the city together.
It's too dangerous to go hunting these days. If you can grow rice to provide food and clothing, it's a good choice.
Jian Fang became a talent that major families competed for, and Qian Fu and Wen Xue also benefited from it.
The three of them were working steadily in Ancheng, waiting for someone from the alliance to come.
After floating on the water for two months, Lin Yan finally found a familiar river along which they used to search for people.
With this discovery, Lin Yan took out the map he drew and directed the ship to sail.
Walking along the water, she also looked carefully at the conditions on both sides of the river, and after comparing them, she continued to improve and modify the map.
After this trip, we have a general topographic map of the western wasteland. It will be faster and safer to take the waterway in the future.
There were wild horses, cattle, sheep, etc. along the water bank. They encountered many on the road. Although Lin Yan was jealous, he did not stop.
Except for occasional stops to replenish some meat and wild fruits and vegetables, we kept going at full speed.
In early May, the boat docked at the south side of Dahe Village. Lin Yan only brought Lan Xing and other five people into the village, while the rest guarded the boat.
Seeing Lin Yan again, old village head Gu Qing felt dazzled. He never expected that the benefactor who had helped them would appear again.
Lan Xing said cheerfully: "Old village chief, we meet again. How is the village? Last time you came back from Ancheng, your journey was smooth."
After Gu Qing identified it again and again and confirmed that it was a real person, he said excitedly: "Everything is fine. Everyone who went to Ancheng last year has returned safely. Thanks to you for cleaning up the vicious beasts on the road. Are you coming back from Ancheng? Why are there only How many people, where are the others?”
The old village chief was deeply impressed by Wen Xue. He made sure that the person was not behind him again and again, and felt a drum in his heart.
Ancheng was a cannibalistic place, and various forces were constantly fighting. It would not be easy for Lin Yan and the others to come out completely after entering.
Lin Yan smiled and said, "Old village chief, let's go inside and talk in detail."
Along the way, there was no change in Dahe Village. It was noon when they arrived, and there was no one in the village. They went straight to the old village chief's house.
After entering the room and taking a seat, Gu Qing asked anxiously: "But what happened?"
"It's nothing, let's take a look when we're passing by." Lan Xing briefly explained the situation after farewell.
Gu Qing digested it for a while before he realized that they had already gone home and returned again.
"You, didn't you say that the journey was difficult, why did you come back so soon?"
"We have a boat, and traveling by water is much faster than on the ground." Lanxing smiled, "Does the old village chief want to see our boat?"
"Come and see." Gu Qing couldn't figure out what kind of boat could travel around the wasteland. There are also boats in the village, which are made of wood. There is absolutely no way they can support people walking that far.
Besides, there is a lot of rain in the wasteland and rivers extend in all directions. No one dares to float on the water all the time.
After walking for half an hour, they arrived at the place where the boat docked. After just one glance, Gu Qing's eyes widened. Is this really a boat?
How could there be so many people and such big people floating on the water without sinking?
The old village chief had a lot of questions. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes and someone told him all this, he would never believe it.
Seeing the old village chief's doubtful eyes about life, Lanxing secretly smiled and led the people to the boat, introducing them while looking around.
The more Gu Qing looked at it, the more he felt like he was dreaming. He asked uneasily: "Is this really a boat? Can it walk on water?"
Lanxing: "Old village chief, we took a boat all the way from Sun City to Dahe Village. It took almost five months."
Lin Ye also smiled and said: "Old village chief, sit down and take a moment. It's just the right time to eat. Come and taste our food."
This time I brought enough flour, all kinds of seasonings, and with the chef Gao Qiang here, I was not in a bad mood along the way.
Looking at the large table full of food, Gu Qing felt even more unreal, "This, are these all food?" He had never seen any of them before, and just looking at them didn't feel like food.
"Yes, this is the braised pork with soy sauce, and this is the spicy and sour fish fillet..." Lanxing introduced Gu Qing one by one, then picked up the chopsticks and handed them over to let him have a taste.
Gu Qing held the chopsticks and didn't dare to move. He couldn't believe that meat could do so many tricks.
"Old village chief, try it quickly." Lin Yan picked up a chopstick of meat and put it on the plate in front of Gu Qing, "This is mutton stew, it's very good."
Gu Qing picked it up shakily, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed a few mouthfuls. It was indeed mutton. It was different from anything he had eaten before.
Gu Qing couldn't stop eating with his chopsticks and tasted everything on the table. While eating the big soft steamed buns, I kept thinking about it.
