It was not a problem for the two of them to stay in the house. It would be difficult to explain if they were seen again. Gao Kan hurriedly invited the two of them out, sighing in his heart, turned around and lay down to sleep.
Sun Erniang was so powerful that she lay down until the afternoon of the next day.
When he woke up, Lin Chong had already asked people to load the equipment and grain purchased in the previous days into trucks, and then sent people to transport them out of the city. Gaokan still had to make a decision on this matter.
After packing up and hearing what Lin Chong said, Gao Kan called out immediately.
After Lin Chong got the message, he went out to give orders.
After everything was done, he called the remaining people into the hall to talk.
Gao Kan sat in the main seat and scanned around. There were not many people left in the house, and most of them were asked to be taken away by Yang Zhi.
If Cao Zheng hadn't brought Zhang Qing, Sun Erniang and his entourage, he would have only asked the remaining 20 or 30 people to do things, and they would have to go out to unload the goods, and now there would only be about 40 people.
Counting the time, it's almost time to send it out, but Zhending Mansion still needs someone to watch over it.
Gao Kan had already thought about this matter well in advance and said: "Yesterday, I asked Brother Cao and the Lords to come together to help us. You brothers have come from thousands of miles away. You should have been entertained and repaired for a few days, but the incident happened from Be anxious, the thieves are coming soon, we really can't delay, we have to send them out as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Cao Zheng hurriedly said: "Young master, just do what you say, and we will obey."
Gao Kan put his hands together and thanked him, saying, "Thank you, brother Cao, because he understands the great righteousness, so I called all the brothers here today to discuss this matter."
"This time, I want to ambush the Bailing Village, and when the thieves come, I will kill them by surprise. I have already asked someone to send out the goods first, and then go after the baggage and food. I also care about the affairs of Zhending Mansion not to be left behind, so I need to call someone. Keep it in good hands.”
"Originally, I planned to wait until all the food and supplies were ready, so I asked Teacher Lin to lead the escort and go to Bailing Village for business. I will stay behind at Zhending Mansion."
Having said this, Gao Kan looked at Cao Zheng again, and suddenly smiled and said: "Fortunately, Brother Cao is here, which solves a big problem."
Cao Zheng was shocked when he heard the words and understood the meaning. He actually wanted to let him make the decision in Zhending Mansion.
But he had just come to seek refuge, so he was still an outsider. How could Gao Kan trust him so much and entrust him with such an important matter in Zhending Mansion?
Feeling worried, he hurriedly said: "Young Master, no."
Gao Kan was surprised when he heard this and said, "Brother Cao, what are you worried about?"
Cao Zheng looked left and right, then looked at his mentor Lin Chong, with a hesitant look on his face. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said: "Young Master is so righteous. You are so lofty in your praise of us. It really scares me. But I can't wait for you. I've just arrived here. I have no merits and no achievements." How dare you be so trusted by the young master?"
The group of people who came with Cao Zhengsuo all had normal colors on their faces after listening to his words.
But Gao Kan smiled heartily and said: "Haha, Brother Cao is overly worried. As the saying goes, don't use doubters and employ people without doubts. Brother Cao and other brothers came from thousands of miles to help. They knew that there were tigers in the mountains and went to Hushan. Such a righteous act , if I am still suspicious, wouldn’t that make you brothers feel chilled?”
"Brother Cao, you don't need to persuade me too much. Coach Lin and I also have some issues with this matter, so we'll let it be decided like this."
As he said that, he pointed to the men who were originally following him and continued: "You just came here, so you may not be familiar with everything in Zhending Mansion. These brothers have been following you for a long time, so you are familiar with it, so I will leave them with you, Brother Cao, In addition, you can pick some more people to stay and help, and the rest of the brothers will work hard, and then go on the road with me to go to Bailing Village."
Seeing Gao Kan's persistence, Cao Zheng couldn't put it off anymore, but he was extremely moved.
He secretly calculated that if he stays in Zhending Mansion, he will act with all his heart and will not disappoint Gao Kan.
After the manpower was properly sorted, Gao Kan called Cao Zheng aside alone and explained many situations, and then he clasped his fists and worshiped him in the Zhending Mansion. If there is any difficulty, just teach Fei Ge to write a letter, and he will come thousands of miles away. assistance.
Cao Zheng thanked him profusely and paid homage again and again.
After the entrustment was completed, it was getting late, but everyone did not wait, so they took advantage of the night to send out the message.
The group of people hurriedly bribed the city guards before the city gate of Zhending Mansion was closed, and a group of people came out of the city.
Traveling all night long, we only stopped briefly to rest, and then we started again when we were ready.
Hurrying in such a hurry, it took three or four days to reach the boundary of Bailing Village.
Bailingzhai was originally just a remote fishing village with only twenty or thirty households. It relied on the Tuo River at its back and relied on water to survive.
Later, many merchants from the north and south came to Zhending Prefecture for business from Daizhou and Xinzhou, and the mountain road was difficult to walk.
He asked someone to think about it, choose the Tuohe River waterway, and go down the road, just in time to reach Zhending Mansion. It gradually became more and more heavy, and it actually became a large scale.
There are more people on the waterway, so naturally there are more places to rest along the way.
Bailing Village is located in the Tuohe waterway, and it is the only one in front of it. Most merchant ships on the water leave the boundary of Hedong and go all the way south. After entering the boundary of Zhending Prefecture, they first pass by Bailing Village and rest here.
As time goes on, Bailing Village becomes more and more prosperous, with more and more people.
Later, the government set up a special place here to determine the government control.
Up to now, Bailing Village has become a water village pass, with more than ten thousand people stationed here, including government soldiers and horses, to prevent bandits in the water and mountains from plundering passing merchant ships.
Yang Zhixian sent out a few days to Gaokan and the others. After arriving at Bailing Village, they used money to find a place outside the village gate to buy a place to stay.
After a few days of tidying up, a remote fishing village port was transformed into something resembling.
Gaokan and the others came all the way from Zhending Mansion. They got the news in advance and came straight to get together.
After not seeing him for many days, Yang Zhi heard about Gaokan's arrival and went to the port several miles away to pick him up early.
After meeting him, he bowed and said, "Young master, you have had a hard journey, please come to the village to rest."
"Excuse me, Coach Yang, go ahead and explore the way for us. It's your fault. Come on, let's go into the village and talk." Gao Kan said with a smile, pulling Yang Zhi and leaving.
A group of people entered the village, and Yang Zhi gathered all his men to pay homage to Gaokan.
Gao Kan was ready to say hello, and asked Lin Chong to order someone to bring out the good wine he had brought, and everyone had a good drink together.
After half a day's work, all other matters were left to his hands. Gao Kan himself, Lin Chong, Yang Zhi, Wu Song, and Zhang Qing and Sun Erniang were invited to speak alone.
After everyone entered the house and took their seats, Gaokan asked questions first.
"Teacher Yang, this time you will come to Bailing Village first. How is the situation in the village? Can you tell us?"
"I was about to report to the young master." Yang Zhi hurriedly replied.
He glanced at Zhang Qing and Sun Erniang again. Although they had been introduced before, they were strangers after all, so he was still more cautious.
Seeing this, Gao Kan said without asking Zhang Qing and Sun Erniang to speak: "Teacher Yang, don't worry about it. Brother Zhang and sister-in-law are not outsiders. Just say it."
"yes."
Yang Zhi clasped his fists in response, and then spoke: "Let Master know that there may be something difficult to deal with in Bailing Village."
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions darkened.
