Xinchang County
After successfully wiping out a group of bandits once again, Qin Yan looked at his listless brother and decided to relieve him, "Six, there are only five bandits left in the entire Liaodong County, and they can't become a problem. I You mean, let’s work together to take them down?”
Qin Sheng turned around and looked at his second brother, "Aren't we going to switch defenses?"
He has no objection to continuing to suppress bandits. It is his responsibility to suppress bandits, and it is also his responsibility to make money for his wife. He just wanted to take advantage of the change of defense to go back and take a look at his wife.
"Let's continue to suppress the bandits without changing our defenses. According to news from Houcheng, your wife is very busy and can't even touch her feet." This means that your wife won't have time to talk to you when you go back. Hey, Xiaoliu is so in love with home.
Qin Sheng fell into deep thought. If his wife was very busy, she wouldn't have much time left for him. However, he still wanted to go back and take a look, just once.
"There are only a few cottages left. Let's clear them out in one go. Your wife will be happy when she finds out. You won't have to come out later, and you will have more time to spend with her."
Qin Sheng thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case, so he nodded in agreement. But he forgot for a moment that after cleaning up the banditry in Liaodong County and the water bandits on the water, he would not have any free time.
Lu Songli is indeed very busy. The entire stall in Houcheng has been paved and construction is also starting in various places.
mountain
"Get out of the way, the tree is going to fall!"
With a roar, a tree that encircled the tree fell down.
After a while, a man came forward with a sickle to repair the branches of the wood. Another team of people came to the selected wood again and prepared to cut it.
The repaired wooden sections were placed there, and soon a small team of people came to carry them away.
"Hey...heyyo...hey..."
The logging workers shouted slogans and worked together to carry a piece of wood that was about five to six feet long and came to the predetermined location.
"one two three!"
As the slogans rang out, the lumberjacks threw the logs on their shoulders in unison.
This section of wood slides down the extremely steep mountain road that has been opened. When it slides to the foot of the mountain, someone will naturally drag it away quickly.
As soon as noon arrived, someone shouted, "Let's eat!"
At this order, the logging workers gathered around one after another. I saw two large baskets piled high with multigrain steamed buns, steamed buns, and steamed buns, placed within reach of the laborers. There were also two buckets of porridge and two buckets of soup beside them, which could be taken at will.
The laborers can eat this food with open stomachs, but the only requirement is that the food cannot be wasted.
Upon hearing this request, the laborers laughed. Isn't this a joke? They all forgot the last time they had enough to eat. Food is so precious, how could they waste it?
The men took their favorite food one by one and sat together to eat while talking and laughing.
They were logging, but they were a little tired. The most important thing was that the things they promised on the red list of recruitment - three meals a day and enough food to take care of them were really done.
In fact, after all, these strong men eat about two or three kilograms of grain a day.
In other words, they ate at least thirty cents a day!
They felt that the owner of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce was really too kind.
Moreover, these pancakes, multi-grain steamed buns, etc. are all made to taste delicious. Unlike when they used to work for people, the owners were afraid that they would eat too much, so they made them to the worst. The taste is hard to describe.
In fact, their algorithm is wrong. When food meets water, it swells very much. For example, in later generations, one pound of rice can make three pounds of rice noodles. On average, a strong man eats less than three kilograms of grain in a day.
But in contrast, the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce's approach is still very kind. So these laborers worked very hard one by one.
Today's Liaodong County is a prosperous scene.
Lan Bingrong had lunch that day and took his son who had returned from other places for a walk in the outer city of Houcheng.
He took his son to see the County Sheriff's Mansion, which was being planned and built, and to see the main commercial street in the South District, which was being renovated but there was no sign of it yet.
Although I still can’t see why, I feel so satisfied for no reason. Why?
Lan Bingrong couldn't help but be happy when he thought that his Lan family's business would be opened on the main street of such a prosperous commercial district in the future.
Although he invested another 20,000 silver for this invisible shop, he felt it was worth it.
The eldest son of the Lan family was also quite surprised. He came back last night and didn't notice what the outer city looked like. In the morning, when he heard that his father had paid so much money to the county magistrate's house, he didn't take it seriously. He just thought that his father was confused.
Now seeing Hou Cheng's vibrant scene, he suddenly felt that his father's decision might be right?
Human beings' joys and sorrows are not the same.
Liaodong County is full of vitality. But the sky in the south seemed to have been poked with a hole, and the rain in the south was pouring down, never letting up. The entire Southland was eclipsed.
As the saying goes, wine and meat in Zhumen stink, and bones will freeze to death on the road.
Outside the city, homeless people set up shacks and live haphazardly. They can only queue up for two meals of porridge every day, and each meal has a bowl for each person. They will starve to death if they are not full.
They wanted to enter the city, but the towering gates and majestic gate guards stopped them.
In the city, Ji Wuyin asked people to sell three kinds of pills brought back from Liaodong County - Jingui Shenqi Pills, Xiaoyao Pills and Liushen Pills at the edge of Qin Coffin Chu Tower.
Now in the south, apart from the soaring price of food, the fastest rising prices are certain medicinal materials that clear away heat, detoxify, relieve heat and reduce swelling.
Among the medicinal materials Ji Wuyin brought back from Liaodong County, more than half were of this type, and the other half were naturally precious medicinal materials such as ginseng. After returning to the Southland, he changed hands on these medicinal materials and made a fortune.
Ji Wuyin's promotion of these three medicines is also very simple and crude. Jingui Shenqi Pills - rebuild men's masculinity; Xiaoyao Pills - relieve women's emotional problems; specifically treat women with sunflower water disorders; Liushen Pills - cool and detoxify. , specializes in treating throat diseases in children.
During the day, their small shop was crowded with people buying Xiaoyao Pills and Liushen Pills. In particular, Liushen Pills, which are used to treat children's diseases, sell very well. Especially since a miracle doctor came to the Southland and speculated that diseases might appear in the Southland after the floods receded.
However, despite the fact that no one seems to be interested in Jingui Shenqi Pills during the day, at night, there should not be too many people sneaking in to buy the pills. Ji Wuyin had already expected that among the three types of pills he brought back, Jingui Shenqi Pills were the most numerous. If not for his foresight, Jingui Shenqi Pills would have been sold out long ago.
Ji Wuyin looked at the boxes of money brought back every day, smiling from ear to ear, and then waved his hand and asked people to carry them into the warehouse.
He calculated that with the increasing amount of money every day, it should be enough to deal with the potential run risk of Ji's Bank, right?
