After a hurried breakfast, Chen Xiaobei first ran to the woods to the west of the village. There were dozens of villagers burning charcoal. Although they were all skilled workers at present, their skills were very mature. It was up to you whether you wanted to or not. No difference.
But Chen Xiaobei still couldn't let go and wanted to come over and have a look.
Seeing Chen Xiaobei coming from a distance, Chen Dayong came up to him with a smile. Not to mention that Chen Dayong still performed his duties very well. As long as he was not on duty at the entrance of the village, he basically just leaned on the charcoal stove at other times.
"Brother Xiaobei, are you here for something?"
Chen Xiaobei shook his head gently, "No, no, I just came over casually to see you and let them continue their work."
Chen Dayong nodded and pointed in the distance, "This is Miss Liu and their charcoal stoves. I see there are some missing ones. It is said that they want to sell them outside."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "Yes, Rumei has some connections, so we don't need to worry about it. You just need to take the time to go and take a look, and don't let them burn out."
Chen Dayong nodded, "Okay, I'll note it down!"
"Also, ask them to help me find out more when they go to deliver charcoal and cabbage. After spring, I plan to raise chickens, pigs, cows and sheep."
Upon hearing this, Chen Dayong opened his eyes wide and looked at him in disbelief.
"Do you want to raise so many?"
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "Yes, look at the cave that Boss Mao told us about. He put a lot of pheasants and snakes in it, and even put a small wild boar. He said it has been enlarged for half a year."
"By the way, that's the pheasant he gave me. I looked at it and found that there was no trace of decay at all, and it smelled very good."
Now Chen Dayong understood and nodded, "I understand, you want to put it there to dry before taking it out."
Chen Xiaobei smiled slightly and said, "You still understand my thoughts."
"Okay, then I'll talk to the guys and see what opportunities there are."
Another day passed in the blink of an eye. Early the next morning, Wannian City was in a state of excitement. Princess Zhaoning was back.
Emperor Xiao An was very excited when he heard about it, "Hurry up and ask Jingfeng to come see me."
With little effort, Princess Zhaoning Xiao Jingfeng followed Xiao Shunzi in. After seeing Xiao An, Princess Zhaoning bowed and said, "Jingfeng has met my father."
Xiao An nodded slightly, "Jingfeng, you are finally back, I feel relieved."
Princess Zhaoning, Xiao Jingfeng, chuckled, "Father, don't worry, I'm just a member of a small country, so there's nothing to worry about."
"I also wrote a letter to Master. I sent someone to send it to the Lotus Sect. If Master receives it, he will come to help us."
After listening to his words, Xiao An became even more excited, "Okay, okay, great, this will give us a little more chance of winning."
Princess Zhaoning cupped her fists and saluted again, "Father, I will go to see my mother first. If you have any orders, please send someone to call me directly."
Xiao An waved his hand to let Princess Zhaoning leave.
After watching him leave, Xiao An excitedly slapped the table, "Okay, I feel a lot more at ease now that Jingfeng is back."
Xiao Shunzi obviously didn't understand that the return of a princess could make the emperor so happy.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Princess is not yet married, so I'm afraid she is not suitable for public appearances."
Xiao An laughed loudly, "Jingfeng left in anger a few days ago, and I was always worried about it. Now that he is back, do you think this means he has forgiven me?"
"Of course, since we are not going to make peace with the Dalin Kingdom, then I have to betroth Jingfeng to a family as soon as possible."
"The invasion of the Great Earth Kingdom is now an opportunity for talents from all walks of life to show off their skills. Let's see which heir apparent can stand out. I will betroth the princess to him."
"By the way, go back and give instructions to each government, just do what I just said..."
Xiao Shunzi bowed and retreated.
Soon the news spread throughout Wannian City that the princess would marry whoever could defeat the Great Earth Kingdom.
Suddenly becoming the emperor's son-in-law, this is undoubtedly a step to the sky for many people.
For a time, the crowd was excited. The noble disciples of the palace, who knew a little bit of kung fu, all clamored to go to war, and the enthusiasm of the whole people to resist the war instantly rose.
The news reached Xiao Jingyun's uterus, and he felt dumbfounded after hearing it.
My father is really good at playing. His sister made such a fuss just after she came back. This is using her as a bait.
But at this time, he didn't have much time to think about these trivial matters.
Just after noon, Xue Feng sent someone to deliver a message. As expected, the army of the Great Tu Kingdom detoured to the Daqing River and was stopped by him. However, the other side seemed to have increased its troops, and the number was more than 300,000.
Hearing this, Jamel Xiao secretly complained.
He has hundreds of thousands, and the opponent has 300,000. He has Ten Thousand Years City as a shield, plus the Four Spirits Bagua Array, so he can deal with them. But if the enemy's troops are too strong, his Bagua Array will not be able to deal with them. If it means too much, it will be thrown away by them.
Seeing Jamel Xiao frowning here, Zhou Quan began to murmur in his heart.
It seems that the situation is not optimistic.
"Your Highness, why don't we send people to urge the reinforcements from all walks of life, and bring less baggage, and rush over if you don't like it."
Xiao Jingyun shook his head, "It's such a cold day, what's the use of people coming here without luggage? They have no place to stay or food, and they will be consumed soon."
After speaking, he sighed and said, "While the morale of each palace is now high, let them put in more effort. You go and gather all the guards from each palace and form a separate team. You are responsible for training in case of emergency." needs.”
Zhou Quan bowed and left.
At this time, Liu Yuanwen and Liu Kai in Liu Mansion were discussing nervously facing the map on the table.
Although Liu Yuanwen does not understand martial arts, he has been with his father for a long time, so he understands the morphological diagrams and formation methods of fighting.
Of course, Liu Kai was very knowledgeable. He pointed at the Daqing River and introduced the situation to Liu Yuanwen.
"Although we have 30,000 people, we are hundreds of miles along the Daqing River. According to the news from the front, the river has not completely frozen, and it should not be able to drag pedestrians. If they want to cross the river, they will have to use boats or build bridges."
Liu Yuanwen nodded, "Okay, so it seems that holding 30,000 people for two or three days is not a big problem."
"I think we should let the prince give an order to Xue Feng. After holding on for three days, he will retreat quietly in the dark and let the enemy cross the river. Otherwise, the 30,000 people will be in serious danger."
After listening to Liu Yuanwen's words, Liu Kai nodded slightly, cupped his fists and saluted, "Young Master is right, the other party is worth more than 300,000."
"Then go quickly." Liu Yuanwen raised his hand.
Liu Kai shook his head and clasped his fists, "Young Master, I'm just a housekeeper. I'm afraid I won't be able to see His Highness the Crown Prince. It's better for you to come forward in this matter. Besides, if you go, this favor will be remembered by the Master." On my head, I’m not sure His Highness the Crown Prince will be happy..."
After listening to Liu Kai's words, Liu Yuanwen thought for a while and nodded.
