Qin Lan knew who Jin Bang was. She was surprised and immediately realized that the location she was in should be the Jin family. No wonder it looked so magnificent.
"Block back..."
The bearded man quickly whispered to his disobedient niece, and kept waving his hands under the table.
Even without his uncle telling him, Qin Lan knew that when the rightful owner came, he had to be polite at the very least, so he had no choice but to sit back on the chair next to his uncle without making a sound.
"It doesn't matter, this girl has quite a cheerful personality."
Jinbang glanced at Qin Lan, then took his wife and sat across from them.
"How old is the little girl?"
The lady looked Qin Lan up and down, then fixed her gaze on her face and smiled.
"I'm nineteen this year"
Qin Lan didn't feel any embarrassment when asked about his age out of the blue and said it directly.
The noble lady nodded, then smiled and said nothing.
"Are you her uncle?"
Jin Bang looked at the bearded man.
"Yes, this girl has a hard life. Her parents are gone. I raised her with my own hands."
Speaking of Qin Lan's life experience, the bearded man did not hide it. Besides, there was nothing to hide. Anyone in their caravan would know it just by asking.
"So that's how it is...it's not that parents are better than parents. No wonder the relationship between your uncle and nephew is so close."
Jinbang squinted at their uncle and nephew, then waved behind him, and two servants came behind him, each carrying a box in their hands, which were placed one by one under the command of the butler. On the table.
The box was opened, and what was inside was actually filled with G. There were two whole boxes, sparkling with crystals, and they looked like they had at least more than four thousand G. In Seoul, this was a very huge amount of money.
"This is……"
It's not that he has never seen such a large number of men with G beards, but he doesn't see them very often either. But he also understands that there must be a reason why the Jin family gave him so much money.
"Your name is Qin Yong, right? Your Ping'an caravan is too small to be a match for Liu Qiang. What's more, they have the Creation Alliance backing them. It will be very difficult for you in the future. With this money Money should leave Seoul as soon as possible.”
Jinbang has clearly investigated the identity of the bearded man, and is even more aware of everything that happened that day. It was just a temporary measure to imprison Liu Qiang and others. Jinbang knew that he could not do anything to them now, and it would not take long before he would definitely release them. When the time comes, the uncle and niece in front of him will definitely be the outlet for Liu Qiang's anger. Jinbang doesn't want to see these and these righteous people being killed, let alone them dying for his own reasons, so , leaving is the best way.
"Mr. Jin, Mrs. Jin, Qin accepts your kindness, but we can't ask for this money. Although the Ping An caravan is not large, we are united and work together to make a living in this world." I think it’s okay to have food to eat.”
Somewhat unexpectedly, Qin Yong did not ask for the money. Unexpectedly, this person's character was quite noble, which is relatively rare, but what can he do if he has a noble character? It cannot change the reality.
"Don't get me wrong, we have no other intentions. We just hope that you will not be retaliated by those young people, that's all."
Jinbang thought for a while, then explained.
"We understand..."
Qin Yong quickly replied.
"What are you afraid of! It's not like we haven't experienced battles before. The worst we can do is fight! If they fight to the death, I won't believe that their caravan didn't suffer any losses."
The little girl Qin Lan was angry and pouted.
"You girl, what are you talking about? Mr. Jin is doing it for our own good, so you are not allowed to talk anymore."
Qin Yong saw that his disobedient niece had lost her temper again, and immediately scolded her severely, but Qin Lan was still unconvinced. It was just because of her uncle's face that she stopped talking.
"Little girl, I heard what you said in the square. You are very courageous and have a sense of justice. But some battles are different. Visible battles are not terrible, but invisible ones are terrible. battle, and a battle without gunpowder smoke.”
Qin Yong has a very good character, as does his niece Qin Lan, who was educated by him. However, the latter is still young after all and does not understand many things. Of course, this is normal. Jinbang was not angry because this girl spoke so freely. He explained to her very earnestly.
"If everyone doesn't fight against the wrongs of this world, then we will still be the same even if we hide in the ends of the earth. Anyway, I'm not afraid."
Qin Lan didn't understand what Jin Bang said, but she still felt that she had not made any mistakes, so why should she escape.
"Mr. Kim, we will leave"
The bearded man Qin Yong stretched out his hand and tugged on the girl's clothes, telling her to stop talking, and then said to Jinbang with a smile.
"If there's nothing else, can we... leave?"
After speaking, Qin Yong glanced in the direction of the door and the heavily armed garrison around him.
"anytime"
Jin Bang stopped trying to persuade them and nodded. The steward on the side waved to the garrison behind him, and the people at the door spread to both sides and let the door out.
Qin Lan wanted to say something, but Qin Yong forcefully dragged him out of Jin's house.
"This little girl has a very strong sense of justice."
After Qin Yong and Qin Lan left, Jin Bang looked away from the door and said.
“It’s just that my temper is a bit willful.”
Mrs. Jin looked at her husband and said.
The Creation Alliance incident led to the first martial law in Seoul since the plague. Careful inspection and registration began at the entrances of the east and west city gates. People entering and exiting the city were subject to strict inspections and interrogations. Guards were on guard on both sides. It has more than tripled the number before. There are countless armed squads patrolling the streets. Basically, the entire Seoul garrison has been mobilized. Anyone with a discerning eye can detect the tense and suppressed smell of gunpowder in the air. The atmosphere of heavy rain and heavy rain shrouded the whole sky in Seoul.
Those who are well-informed have long known that the window between Seoul and the Creation Alliance has been pierced. The timid ones are busy packing their luggage and preparing to leave Seoul, while the bold ones are staying in the city to watch this. A rare excitement.
As the saying goes, everything in the world is for profit, and all the hustle and bustle is for profit. Most ordinary people are worried about the fire at the city gate, which will affect the fish ponds, and are afraid that they will be implicated in the event of a fight. However, many people hope to take advantage of this time. Make a lot of money from him. In Seoul at the moment, the weapons business is the best. Basically every person with some financial strength will think of buying a weapon for self-defense. With this guy in hand, plus now If Jinbang hadn't had the foresight to send out heavy troops to guard the security of Seoul, I'm afraid Seoul would have turned into a mess.
It can be said that the gold list at this moment is already very busy and almost exhausted. Although he is the highest authority holder in the entire Seoul, running a city does not depend on just one person. He can have the confidence to fight to the end, but It does not mean that everyone has the same idea as him. It is inevitable that some colleagues who were originally opponents are secretly watching the joke, and may even play dirty tricks. Seoul can be said to be in a period of internal and external troubles. , the burden on Jinbang's shoulders is getting heavier and heavier.
As Jinbang's son, Xiao Jinzi was more aware of how difficult it was for his father at this moment, so the next day, he offered to help his father manage public security in the city.
Public security is the fundamental factor in maintaining the stability of the city. Xiao Jinzi knows the importance of stability in Seoul. Regarding his son's initiative to fight, what can Jinbang say? Nothing is more reassuring than his own son protecting him, so Directly handing over the command of the entire Seoul garrison of more than 10,000 people to Xiao Jinzi. This was not a test, but a solution that the father and son had no other options.
Xiao Jinzi immediately proposed the method of closing the two gates of Seoul into one-way traffic, which meant that the east gate could only enter the city and the west gate could only leave the city. This idea was absolutely approved by Jin Bang.
The east gate of Seoul...
"Why don't you let us out? Were you not allowed to leave from here yesterday? Why don't you let us leave from here now? Why do you do so!"
A middle-aged woman carrying large and small parcels was blocked at the east gate. After learning that the east gate could only enter the city but not leave the city, she became extremely anxious. Xiaobao put it on the ground, jumped on his feet, pointed at the garrison who rushed to stop him, and asked loudly, like a shrew. Next to this shrew woman stood a man with a lame leg and a sweet-looking man with a small belly. A quiet girl with a bulging belly, if you take a closer look, she is a pregnant mother-to-be. However, you can rarely see a smile on the sweet face of this girl who is already pregnant with a child. Her eyes are calm and restless. There always seems to be a regrettable sadness in the depths of his eyes.
"No reason. This is an order from above. We must execute it and leave quickly. Otherwise, I will send people to arrest you all."
The garrison was tired of this yelling shrew. If he hadn't been responsible for his duties, before, he would have knocked this crazy woman into the smelly ditch with his rifle butt.
"You...you...do you know who we are!!!"
Yes, the woman who dared to act bad at the east gate was An Ruoniang. Yesterday, Master Liu personally came to where they lived and told them that he would take their family out of Seoul and live in a place that is hundreds of times better than Seoul. , you can get whatever you want there, and the house you live in is ten times as big as this.
She could finally leave this hellish place. How could An Ruoniang not be happy to have her wish come true? The opportunity she had been waiting for was right in front of her. Naturally, she had to seize it and not let go of this opportunity to become a successful person. She immediately agreed. However, because Mr. Liu said that he had some very important things to do, he could not go with them. However, he made an appointment with them to meet at a place. The agreed place was in the area going east after leaving the east gate of Seoul. We met in the woods. For this reason, An Ruoniang worked hard all night. She packed up almost all the things she could bring with her at home. She felt the city gate early the next morning. Now she saw They can just go out through the east gate. Naihe was told that they were going to leave the city through the west gate. They were carrying a bunch of things, plus a lame man and a pregnant woman with little strength. When they walked to the west gate to leave the city, they would definitely It's past the agreed time. Why is An Ruoniang not in a hurry? If Mr. Liu can't wait for them and leaves, then her work will be in vain.
