Small town inn.
When Lin Ye came back, the sky was already getting slightly brighter. He came in through the back window and saw Lu Lin and Bai Niao sitting on the bed and falling asleep.
After all, they are two young girls. Even if they have seen a little bit of the world, they still cannot resist the fear of being in a strange environment.
The two of them were sitting on the innermost side of the bed, leaning on each other. This was probably the safest place they could find.
Lin Ye did not disturb the two of them when he came back, and poured himself a glass of water quietly.
When I looked back, I found that there were still slight tears on the faces of the two little maids. It seemed that before falling asleep, the two of them talked about something, touched their hearts, and even cried together.
In fact, even if they didn't follow Lin Ye, they wouldn't be able to return home, because their home was already gone.
Both of them were born into the Loufan nobility. When they were young, their families also experienced great changes, and they were reduced from nobles to slaves overnight.
In Lou Fan, the struggle for power was far more fierce and cruel than in Dayu.
Today there are tens of thousands of households, but tomorrow there may be nothing but blood and bones.
There are no rules in Lou Fan for the female relatives of criminals to join the Jiaofang Division. They are all divided up by other noble families.
The prettier ones were kept, while the unattractive ones were sent directly to the army to do hard labor. When women were forced to do cool labor, their fate was much worse than that of men.
For the two of them to be chosen by Zong Zhenghe to stay in the mansion as maids, it was actually a blessing among misfortunes, so even if Lin Ye didn't take them with him, they would be homeless.
After sitting for a while, Lin Ye walked to the bed and lay down gently, trying not to disturb the two maids, squinting his eyes and thinking about his next move.
Not long after, Bai Niao must have had some kind of nightmare, and suddenly he trembled a few times and woke up.
Her move startled Lu Lin, and she opened her eyes.
The two people first looked at each other, and then they found someone lying next to them, and they exclaimed at the same time. When they saw that it was Lin Ye who was back, they were both stunned.
Then the white bird pounced on Lin Ye first, followed by Lu Lin.
God knows why it was like this. The two maids fell on Lin Ye and cried so hard.
After Lin Ye comforted them, the two maids fell asleep.
Lin Ye got up early in the morning and meditated cross-legged. After practicing for a while, Lu Lin and Bai Niao woke up. When they saw Lin Ye again, their faces turned a little red.
Probably because I was really frightened last night. I was so scared that I didn't even dare to lie down in this unfamiliar inn.
After Lin Ye came back, the two hugged Lin Ye and cried for a while, but from that moment on, the distance seemed to get closer.
After the two got up, they quickly tidied up the bed, and then went to fetch water for Lin Ye to wash up. One squatted down to put on Lin Ye's socks, and the other stood behind Lin Ye to comb his hair.
After packing up, Lin Ye took the two little girls out to look for food. They found a breakfast shop and had a warm breakfast.
The two little girls were probably really hungry, so they ate very quickly. One of them burned the tip of her tongue with the wontons, kept blowing air with her mouth open and her tongue stuck out, and the other choked and sat there burping.
When Lin Ye saw them like this, he suddenly thought that maybe this was their original personality.
"Take you to buy some clothes."
After Lin Ye paid for the meal, he stood up and said something casually, but the two little girls were surprised. They didn't expect that Lin Ye would actually want to buy them some clothes.
One of the reasons for crying last night was this. Two little girls who love to be clean came out without bringing anything with them.
As soon as I left the breakfast shop, I met several guys who didn't look like good people.
Seeing Lin Ye alone with two beautiful girls, these Loufan villains immediately stopped.
One of them yelled at Lin Ye, pointed at Lin Ye and asked why he stole the woman from their home.
Of course they have done this kind of thing often, so they know these three foreigners
The boys and girls who come will be frightened.
But what they didn't expect was that not only was the young man not frightened, but the two pretty little girls were not scared at all, and even looked at them with pity in their eyes.
After a while, Lin Ye handed the money he found from those evil men directly to Bai Niao: "You two go and pick it out yourself. Buy whatever you like."
The two little girls immediately cheered and Lu Lin, who had a more lively and enthusiastic personality, came directly over and kissed Lin Ye's face.
Lin Ye felt that he had better luck after choosing these two little maids. He didn't have to spend any money on himself. As soon as he went out, kind-hearted people gave him money.
The two little girls happily went to pick out some clothes and bought things like rouge and gouache. Since they were quite rich, they also bought some snacks and pastries.
Just when I came out of a snack shop, I saw the guys who had been beaten by Lin Ye with bruises and swollen faces, actually called for dozens of people, all with fierce looks on their faces.
Looking at the dozens of people holding sharp knives, Lin Ye turned around and asked them: "Is the carriage we bought when we came here uncomfortable?"
The two little girls nodded at the same time, looking at the dozens of strong men with fierce looks, as if they were looking at dozens of bulging money bags, their eyes were bright.
Lin Ye said: "Then buy a better one."
A moment later, Lin Ye had appeared at the door of a horse and carriage dealership, with two little girls following behind, huffing and puffing from exhaustion.
After all, both of them were holding a lot of money bags in their arms, and they were really bulging. Their arms were full, and it was not easy to see.
But they both look so happy...
Soon after, they had a carriage that looked very luxurious. Unlike the previous one, there was not even a soft cushion in the carriage.
The car is spacious and comfortable enough, and it also has aromatherapy inside.
While Lin Ye was beating up all those bad guys, he inexplicably remembered that he met Gao Gong and the others on his first day in Yunzhou...
It actually feels a bit familiar.
So Lin Ye actually went back again. When the villains who were supporting each other saw Lin Ye coming back, some were so frightened that they wanted to run away, and some just knelt on the ground.
Lin Ye asked them to find some horses, and they would all be Lin Ye's guards from now on.
These villains turned green when they heard that. There were still some pretty guys who killed dozens of them by themselves, and now they actually want to use them as bodyguards?
But they didn't dare to resist.
Lin Ye gave them some silver, bought three more carts, and collected three carts of leather goods and other goods in the small town to load them. Dozens of guys who looked like gangsters escorted the convoy towards the capital of Loufan. .
At first, the two girls Lu Lin and Bai Niao were a little worried. After all, Lin Ye was only one person, and there were dozens of those guys. What if Lin Ye couldn't take care of them.
But soon, they discovered that they were worrying too much.
After walking out for dozens of miles, Lin Ye called the leader of the gangsters over and asked if there were any wealthy families nearby who didn't usually have a good reputation.
The gangsters could be named immediately, and they were all those they would never dare to provoke.
There are practitioners in those wealthy families, who are much more powerful than them. They are just tall, thick-skinned and thick-skinned. They are not people who can practice.
Lin Ye asked who among them was the richest and who had the worst reputation, and the leader immediately answered with a name.
He was an aristocrat from Loufan. He had a high-ranking official in the capital, so he was confident in the local area and did not regard the common people as human beings.
He hired a lot of people to farm for his family and only gave them one meal a day. Anyone who didn't want to do it would be kicked away if they complained even a little bit without even giving a single copper coin.
Others shipped the Central Plains silk and satin from Dongbo at a huge price. The big business directly sent people to snatch it and charged it for one-tenth of the price. If you want it, don't lose it.
Anyone who dares to cause trouble will be sent directly to beat him up.
Lin Ye nodded after hearing this: "It's him."
That night, Lin Ye broke in with all the gangsters.
Early the next morning, the number of convoys heading towards the capital increased from four to fourteen. The ten vehicles behind were filled to the brim, and the size of the convoy suddenly seemed huge and majestic.
Lu Lin had asked Lin Ye before, what to do in the capital?
Lin Ye's answer was to do business.
Shiratiao curiously said that we have nothing, what business can we do in the capital?
Lin Ye said don't worry, we will have everything soon. When the time comes, we can do whatever business we want. You two can take the pick.
At that time, they didn't know how the things came from.
After walking about another three hundred miles, the size of the convoy has changed from fourteen large vehicles to twenty-one. It seems to be a long string, which gives a sense of accomplishment.
After walking another two hundred miles, the size of the convoy would reach thirty vehicles. Lin Ye planned to take a break, not because he thought it was enough, but because he didn't have enough gangsters under his command. No matter how many vehicles and horses there were, he couldn't take care of them.
A convoy of this size will certainly attract the attention of more powerful bandits, especially now that Lou Fan is in chaos, almost all major tribes are not at peace, and many people have come out to become rogue bandits.
Some big tribes wanted to compete for the leadership of the tribe. After the competition failed, they escaped with their men and had no place to go for the time being, so they became horse bandits.
Lin Ye was even more interested at this time, because this was what he had planned. Only when the size of the caravan seemed large enough could it attract the attention of larger-scale horse thieves.
Other caravans were afraid of being targeted by horse bandits, but Lin Ye's caravan went around to find out where there were more powerful horse bandits.
From the moment Lin Ye made his decision, after walking another six hundred miles, he actually pulled together a team of about 3,000 people, which was really huge.
The small-scale horse bandits could no longer catch his eye, so he picked up the larger ones to conquer them. With his strength in the God-endowed realm, it was easy to conquer these horse bandits.
Those who are willing to obey will follow me as my servants, and those who are not willing to obey will be left as fertilizer.
It was about 1,400 to 5,000 miles from Zhongxiushan to the capital. When walking a thousand miles, Lin Ye was accompanied by a cavalry force of about 8,000 people.
Along the way, these 8,000 horse bandits, who originally refused to obey anyone and started to attack at the slightest disagreement, were actually cultivated by him to have a somewhat elite aura. At least they looked neat and serious.
Lin Ye thought about how he should enter the Loufan capital.
So I sent people to ask around to see if there were any great people who could make suggestions around the newly ascended Emperor Lou Fan.
This matter is easy to inquire about, and the closer you get to the capital, the better. Now, near the capital, no one knows that there is a Mr. Ye beside His Majesty who is deeply trusted by His Majesty.
Although he has no official position, his status is almost the same as that of the prime minister of the DPRK. Although he is dressed in white, he is respected by all the wealthy families in the capital.
After Lin Ye found out the news, he found two smarter people in his team and asked them to rush to the capital to see Mr. Ye. He said that Mr. Ye's disciples had come with a cavalry to seek refuge.
Originally, these gangsters did not dare to resist due to Lin Ye's lust, but later they admired Lin Ye. Now that they learned that Lin Ye was actually the disciple of the Imperial Master Mr. Ye, they were all frightened and couldn't bear it. I kept thinking, no wonder we are not their rivals.
Lin Ye left in no hurry for the rest of the journey, training his troops while walking, training these tough bandits on their cavalry charge formations, charge skills, and various ways to defeat the enemy.
When they were still about two hundred miles away from the capital, someone came to greet them, and the person who came was of high rank. He was actually a Duke of Lou Fan.
Originally, this guy was a marquis. Because of his meritorious service in supporting His Majesty, he was named the Duke of the country. He came from the Helian family and was named Helianwang.
According to rumors, he is the little fanboy of Mr. Ye, the Imperial Master...
