Chapter 180: Biansai Town


It is said that since the team transporting canned pears left Lishi County, Zhao Chen's subordinates had a vague feeling that someone was spying on them secretly.

Lewen But they didn't make any noise.

They just checked and patrolled the team to maintain order, and asked the porters to follow their team in groups of twenty people.

After walking like this for several days, after passing Mengmen Pass, those people stopped following.

After crossing the Yellow River, it is the Guannai Road to Suizhou.

After passing through the entire Suizhou, it is the boundary of Neizhou, and Ningshuo County is not far ahead.

It is not easy to cross the entire Suizhou.

Walking on this plateau, there are huge mountains and rivers.

After crossing the Yellow River and walking for three days, another long rolling river appeared in front of everyone.

"Why is there another river here?"

This was the first time for many people to come to such a far place.

They originally thought that the Yellow River they saw two days ago was already the largest and only river in their area, but they didn't.

I thought that after a few days of walking, I saw a big river again.

"Why is this called Shuo River?

It flows straight from here to Yanshui County in Yanzhou, where it merges into the Yellow River.

The opposite side is the boundary of Xizhou, your east river road."

A servant of the Zhao family on horseback happened to be there at this time.

After passing by them, he spoke out to explain the doubts of these porters.

"That's it."

The porters felt that they had gained a lot of knowledge.

They had probably heard a little about Yanzhou and Xizhou before.

As for the specific location, they really had no idea.

Now listen to this When people told them this, the originally fuzzy map in their minds suddenly became much clearer.

"You are really well-informed."

A porter said with emotion.

"People who have been walking outside all year round don't know how to navigate the road."

The servant smiled, and then drove forward again.

There were several wooden carts parked in a pile in front of him, and he didn't know what problem he encountered.

"Why don't you leave?"

The man ran forward and saw that there seemed to be no problem here, but these people were here and there, not knowing what they were doing.

"I just saw a few hares in this patch of grass."

A thin porter said excitedly.

After walking outside for so many days and eating dry food all day long, when they saw the meat, they couldn't walk anymore.

"You are full of dregs in your head."

I didn't expect that the always kind and easy-to-talk person would change his expression at this time: "A few hares have confused you, and the good team has been broken into two pieces.

There is only a team of people, if something happens to them, you can afford it."

After a few scoldings, the man didn't stop for a moment.

He flicked his whip and hurriedly chased the team in front.

When the porters who were busy chasing rabbits just now saw this scene, they looked at me and I looked at you.

They quickly pushed up the cart and chased the team in front.

Fortunately, nothing happened this time.

Those hares were really just hares that accidentally appeared on the roadside.

They were not traps set by gangsters.

Otherwise, these people would really have lost their intestines.

I regret it.

When they were resting that night, Zhao Chen's men finally told them what had happened the past few days that they had been stared at.

The reason for not telling these people this was because they were afraid that they would be frightened and confused, but judging from the current situation, it was impossible not to tell them.

The porters they hired this time really had no experience.

During the long journey, in the wilderness, they didn't know to follow the team in front, and ran to catch some rabbits.

They were so careless.

If there were some bad guys who wanted to cheat, it wouldn't be a scam.

And what they have to guard against are not only evil people, but also wild beasts.

The wild beasts in the mountains are also alert.

They will often lurk and peek along the paths that humans walk on.

If they encounter groups of people moving together, they will not show up.

If they encounter stragglers, they will have to watch them at that moment.

Are you hungry?

Are you in a good mood?

The porters who had made mistakes were scolded again at this time.

Their faces turned red and their heads drooped, unable to utter a single word of rebuttal.

People are most afraid of making mistakes when they go out.

This is not only related to their own wealth and life, but also the wealth and life of those who are traveling with them.

If something goes wrong with the group of twenty people in front today, after they return to Lishi County, How should we face those people’s families?

After this night, these people walked on the road with a bit more rigor and order than in the previous days.

Not to mention rabbits, even the unfamiliar frontier scenery that was displayed in front of everyone, no one was in that mood. to appreciate.

Ningshuo County is also a borderland, and there are still ruins of the Qin Dynasty's Great Wall.

However, the Great Wall was mostly built of loess and gravel.

It has been in dilapidated condition for a long time.

After passing the Great Wall, there is a large desert behind the vast prairie.

There is no fertile farmland around the desert, and the population is very sparse.

From the map, this place is within the shape of the Yellow River, but because there are no natural passes that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the population is very sparse, it is not easy for troops to station, and they are often harassed by tribesmen from the grasslands outside the pass.

After arriving in Ningshuo County, the porters who came from Lishi County couldn't help but feel a bit sad in their hearts.

The place in front of them was really too poor.

They really don't have much experience.

They have never left Lishi County a few times in their lives.

The few times they went out, they didn't go very far.

They have never seen any real rich and powerful people, but they have also never seen anyone like this. poverty.

"Mr.

Sir, where did you get your soap?

Do you want me to sell soap at home?"

A seven or eight-year-old boy ran back and forth beside their long team.

"Do you have any cashmere?"

asked a porter.

Seeing how poor this place was, he thought that the price of cashmere might be very cheap, and he might be able to buy some after receiving the sixty cents of hard-earned money.

"The cashmere has been taken away by the merchants in our city.

The husband over there in Chang'an City wants it."

When the kid saw someone talking to him, he immediately tightened his grip and kept chattering: "Soap is not always available.

I, Aye, went out to the city two days ago and happened to collect some from a few herdsmen.

I haven't sold it yet.

If you can afford the price, I will sell it to you."

"Someone also comes to collect soap," the porter said curiously.

"There are always people collecting cashmere and soap."

The kid grinned and said, "The dried meat here is the cheapest."

"Where's the sheepskin?"

someone asked next to him.

Luo Sanlang is not making sheepskin boots.

If there is good and cheap sheepskin, it would be appropriate to take some back.

"The government office in our county also collects sheepskin.

It is said that the saint wants to use them to make boots for the soldiers."

The little kid sniffed and replied.

"There are even people who accept them.

How come your place is so poor?"

Someone spoke openly and asked directly at this time. "" The child wiped his nose with the back of his hand and said, "What can we do?

Our family lives outside the city and there is no place to graze sheep."

"That's true."

The speaker was a little embarrassed, so he said: "We don't have any money now.

Let's go and see your soap and dried meat when we get our wages."

"Hey, okay, I'll be here at the city gate all day long.

You can just come here and find me when the time comes."

The child said happily.

The Zhao family who came from Liangzhou City had already arrived in Ningshuo County two days ago.

As soon as their team from Lishi County entered the city, someone immediately came to join them.

After successfully handing over the goods, all the porters who came this time each received their share of wages, which was sixty cents per person as agreed before.

Except for a few who accidentally dropped cans on the way, the others Everyone has a lot of money.

Those who dropped the cans were deducted 20 cents for each can.

For the porters, this was already a huge amount of money, but in fact they didn’t even get their capital back.

The main thing was The losses will still be borne by the Zhao family caravan itself.

The porters all know what's good, and everyone thinks that the Zhao family's caravan is good and kind, and will not make things difficult for poor people like them.

If the Zhao family still looks for porters in the future, many people who come back this time will definitely sign up.

Those who took over the canned pears set off from Ningshuo County the next day and headed west to Liangzhou City.

The porters who came from Lishi County had to rest in the county for two days to rest and buy goods.

All expenses for these two days were also borne by the Zhao family, and they would return to Lishi County with them after two days.

There are more Zhao family members than before.

These people originally planned to stay in Ningshuo County to pick up the goods and transport the canned pears produced in Lishi County to Liangzhou City in batches.

However, after this meeting, they also knew that Zhao Chen had changed his mind.

Except for the first batch These canned pears and the subsequent cans will have to be shipped back together when all the cans are finished.

In this way, instead of waiting in Ningshuo County, they might as well go to Lishi County to help.

On this side of Lishi County, next to the canning factory, the car rental agency that used to occupy a large area was pitifully pushed aside.

Many cars did not even have a place to protect themselves from the rain, and they used straw curtains at night.

Put a lid on it to keep out the dew.

However, Luo Sanlang also said that their pear canning workshop will be a little busy at this time.

After this period of busyness, a large cement square will be empty, and they will not be able to use it at will, so this Several small car rental agency owners are also very happy.

"Why did you take this thing out again?

Put it away quickly.

Don't lose it."

A small boss shouted to one of his companions.

A few days ago, Zhao Dalang wanted to transport canned pears.

He didn't have a wooden cart, so he rented a car from them.

He rented a total of seventy cars.

The agreed rent was three hundred cents.

But before taking away the wooden carts, Zhao Dalang had to pay them three thousand dollars as a deposit.

If their car was lost or broken down, he would have to compensate according to the price and deduct it from the deposit.

At that time, Zhao Dalang went to his carriage to look for it.

There were not that many copper coins, so he took out a silver lump from his body and threw it to these young people: "Put it away, this piece of silver is worth more than three coins."

“If you don’t get enough of it this time, you won’t know when it will be next time.”

"Look at your potential."

"You said, we have to do this business with a big employer like this.

We can get three hundred coins at a time, so it's more worry-free."

"The time they use the car is too long, it's too expensive."

"That's true, I heard that the road over the Guannei Road is not easy to walk either."

"The roads are so bad, cars break down quickly."

"It will be great if they build cement roads there too."

"Sooner or later it has to be repaired."

At this time, a voice suddenly interrupted.

Several people turned around and saw Luo Sanlang coming.

In the past two days, Zhao Chen and the others had collected fewer and fewer pears from outside.

The canning factory was going to lay off employees, and none of the employees wanted to leave.

Luo Yong came here specifically to appease people today.

"Sanlang" "Seriously," those young people all looked excited.

"Of course."

Luo Yong nodded.

"I heard that this way, but it's far away."

A young man thought this incident was really incredible.

"What do you want to do?

Just cultivate as far as you can."

Luo Yong said with a smile.

The road from Lishi County to Liangzhou City is long, far and difficult to walk, and there are not many merchants coming and going.

Luo Yong thought that if this road could be repaired, more people might use it, and it would be much more convenient to travel to Liangzhou City.

By then, their brothers and sisters would be able to catch up with a group of people.

Take a carriage and go to Liangzhou City to visit Erniang and the others. gd1806102:
