In the territory of Hebei East Road in winter, because of the previous tide of displaced people, the bark and grass have been dug up, and it looks even more desolate and dilapidated at this time.
But fortunately, there is no longer the previous panic, and the road is bustling and noisy and lively.
In a small town not far from the Daimyo's Mansion, it happened that people from near and far came to the temple fair to sell and purchase firewood, rice, oil, salt, and various mountain goods in winter.
"It's not a good business."
"Life is not easy these days."
"Yes, there was a war."
A few firewood collectors squatting at the gate of the city were waiting for business with their hands in their hands, and they were talking to each other.
Among them, a man in his thirties was very silent.
"This old brother has a lot of firewood."
Someone took the initiative to talk.
The man hummed, looking shy.
"Brother hasn't seen it before."
Another firewood collector asked curiously.
This town does not fight, and the comings and goings of firewood collectors and firewood sellers are always this group of people, who are somewhat familiar.
"Oh, it's my first time."
The face man said.
People on both sides laughed, and the accents of the same place were very familiar.
"Wei Dian," the previous person asked.
The man with a raw face hummed and nodded.
"You've got too much firewood."
The person next to him pointed out enthusiastically, "You shouldn't fight so much, it's even less valuable when it's trendy." ” "However, maybe, I heard that someone has recently collected a lot of firewood."
Someone else said, "Tokukatsu Sho of the Daimyo Mansion." ” It was a rich family, and everyone was curious at the moment.
"What do people like Deshengchang want so much firewood?"
"In addition to cooking, they don't burn wood, they use charcoal."
For these hungry toiling people, the life of a rich person is unimaginable.
"It's funny to say."
The man said, motioning for everyone to gather together.
The man from the Wei shop also squeezed over with a bit of curiosity.
"De Shengchang is in the family, everyone has heard about it."
Some people have heard of it, and some people don't know, after all, for them, they have never had the opportunity to deal with Qianzhuang in their lifetime.
The man recounted the matter briefly.
"So now the two young ladies are sharing the ticket numbers of the Daimyo Mansion with the young master's people, they are all veterans of the year, one is shrewd and the other is shrewd, Young Master Fang's side in order to let them get out of the house quickly, he deliberately bought firewood to keep warm, the whole house is smoky, and one person coughs non-stop in it, it's just laughing to death."
It's funny.
"It's weird and embarrassing to be like this."
"What do you know, my brothers settle accounts, and these rich people are the most clear."
Everyone laughed and talked until the sound of horses' hooves stopped.
"Hey, I want all the firewood you have."
At the same time, a proud male voice asked.
No, really The people who were collecting firewood looked over in disbelief.
"But I have to send it farther, to Deshengchang in the Daimyo's Mansion."
The man said, "Of course, the firewood will be given to you separately. ” Sure enough, it was De Shengchang, who was lucky, and the firewood people suddenly boiled, answering in a hurry and packing up their firewood in a hurry.
The Daimyo's Mansion was much tighter guarded than before, and the steward of Deshengchang, who had been able to drive straight into the Daimyo's Mansion before, also had to be interrogated, and these firewood collectors were no exception, and the firewood capital was also stabbed with a spear.
"Isn't it that you don't fight, why are you so strict?"
the firewood man couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"You don't know yet."
The people who were inspected next to him whispered, "Chengguo Gong conspired against the crime of fear and absconded, and now they are arresting their family." ” The name of Chengguo Gong is known to everyone, and the firewood gatherers suddenly widened their eyes.
"How could Cheng Guogong rebel," they couldn't help but blurt out.
The surrounding people waved at them in fright.
"Die, do you want to be arrested as a member of the party?"
they whispered.
The firewood gatherers were silent and did not dare to speak out, looking frightened.
"But how could Cheng Guogong rebel," someone couldn't help but whisper.
It's not an inquiry, it's a no.
These words made everyone silent for a moment, for the people of the Northland, Chengguo Gong is a god-like existence.
"How do we know about the above?"
Someone sighed under his breath.
"Okay, let's stop talking, let's go into town."
The man behind urged, "Mind your own business." ” It's hard for them to survive on their own, where can they manage these big things.
The gloom at the gate of the city quickly dissipated with the sight of the three words Deshengchang.
"I said Weidian, you have made a fortune this time."
Someone said, looking at the man with the tallest and most woody pile in a group of people.
The man smiled shyly, and although he didn't say anything, his eyes sparkled.
"Where are you?"
said De Shengchang's steward casually as he watched them carry the firewood in.
The firewood collectors answered one by one, and when it was the man's turn, the man glanced at the steward of Deshengchang more.
"Weidian's."
He said, pausing, "My daughter-in-law's family is from Runan." ” The countrymen will not speak when they are nervous, but there are also those who are nervous and talk a lot, and they are not surprised that this man has reported his daughter-in-law wherever everyone is, but he just sighed.
The man lowered his head and carried the pyre on his back to go in, but the steward raised his head again and sighed.
"You have a lot of firewood."
He looked at it, "It's not a lot of strength." ” Men sneer.
The steward pointed inward.
"It just so happens that there is a lot of firewood in it, you go and help resist the house."
He said, "I'll pay you another salary." ” It's really a good errand, the other firewood collectors looked at the man with envy, and the man thanked him and followed a guy to the inner courtyard with firewood on his back.
The courtyard was really smoky, and the backyard was a little better, and an old man in a brocade robe sat under the porch drinking tea.
"It's still quiet here, I'm about to be smoked to death, and these guys can still carry it without leaving."
He complained to the little guy standing in front of him, "Go sell firewood again, burn it, burn it hard." ” The little guy smiled and responded, and the old man took a sip of tea and saw the man walking in.
"Master Zhou asked me to come in and carry firewood."
The guy introduced.
The old man looked at the man.
The man lowered his head and was a little nervous.
"Does the old man like to play chess?"
he said through a sudden gritted tooth.
Is this a no-nonsense to find a word, guys, it's a little funny.
The old man smiled too.
"You countryman can still play chess," he asked, pausing for a moment, "Have you ever heard of pig chess?"
What kind of chess piece is pig chess The guys laughed again, what kind of pig chess is there in the world, the old shopkeeper is teasing the countrymen.
"Yes."
The man raised his head and said seriously, "My daughter-in-law's mother's family Runan can." ” There really is The guys were a little surprised, and the old shopkeeper laughed.
"Yes, yes, it's really a way to play over there."

He said, waving his hand, "Go and go, go and work." ” The man walked away.
"Do a good job, this money will reward you for drinking and eating."
The old shopkeeper stopped him again, and casually removed the money bag from his waist and threw it away.
The money bag fell at the man's feet, and he was obviously too frightened to take it, but a fellow picked it up and stuffed it for him.
"Our shopkeeper's mind, don't take it politely."
He said nonchalantly.
For a firewood collector, a bag of broken silver is a lot, but for the old shopkeeper of Deshengchang, it is like fine sand.
The man thanked him again and again, and he couldn't hide the smile on his honest face, which lasted until he left Deshengchang.
The fellow firewood collector looked at the heavy money bag hanging from his waist and was very envious.
He made the most money this time, but he couldn't help others.
The inspection at the gate of the city is still very strict, and they don't let go of going out of the city, and they check carefully one by one, except for the money, these people didn't bring anything else, and there is no problem with this money, after all, it is to sell firewood in exchange.
The guards quickly waved them over.
The man didn't go far with these firewood collectors, saying that he was going to visit a relative and left.
The man walked along the road until it was dusk, and then entered a village, and went straight into a courtyard.
The lights were on, and the sound of women clattering and weaving cloth was heard, as quiet and peaceful as all the houses of the village.
The man pushed the door into the house, and the door was closed in a small room or with a dozen people sitting at the cargo station.
"Big brother, I got it."
The man looked at one of the bearded men with his head bowed and said excitedly, holding up the money bag.
The bearded man looked up, his face a little old, but his eyes were young and bright.
"Is there really one," he asked.
"Yes, De Shengchang is so preaching firewood, and he is really waiting for your eldest brother."
The man said excitedly, "Everything you asked me to say is right, it's just like what I said." ” That is, it is not nonsense to understand this in the heart.
A smile bloomed on the bearded man's face, and he reached out to remove his beard, revealing Zhu Zhan's face, bright and bright.
"Is it her arrangement," he asked.
The man shook his head.
"I didn't mention anyone, and I don't know if this was arranged by Miss Jun."
He whispered.
The smile on Zhu Zhan's face dimmed, but he nodded again.
"That kid is very clever."
He said to himself, "But she's still amazing, if it weren't for her, that kid would have arrested me for money." ” That's right, the little rabbit cub surnamed Fang would definitely do this, that was a ruthless person.
He was silent for a moment, no news was good news, and he pulled himself together and stretched out his hand.
The silver of the money bag was poured on the table, and several men pinched the broken silver with their hands, and after a while, many of the broken silver cracked, and it turned out to be hollow silver, but everyone was not deceived and angry, but looked surprised, and pulled out small notes from it.
By the light of the lamp, you can see that the place names are written on it.
Notes were placed on the table one by one, densely packed with a dozen.
Zhu Zan stood in front of the table, his fingers stroking the notes one by one, and then raised his hand.
"Let's go, take the money."
He said, picking up one of his own and heading straight out.
The rest of the men, like him, each picked up a piece of fish and left the house and disappeared into the night.
When it was dark, several chariots and horses came from each of the four gates of the Daimyo's Mansion.
Seeing the sign of De Shengchang on the car, the guards did not question opening the city gate, and laughed a little.
"Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore and was smoked away," a city guard laughed.
The steward headed by De Shengchang shook his head with a smile.
"I can't bear it."
"That's pretty much it," he said. ” The city keeper shook his head.
"The richer the person, the more calculating."

He said.
The steward stepped forward and handed him a heavy bag of silver, and the city keeper did not shy away from taking it.
"However, it still needs to be investigated."
He said solemnly.
The steward smiled and leaned out of the way.
"That's natural, my lord, you checked our innocence, and it's convenient to do things on the road."
He said.
The general waved his hand, and the waiting soldiers stepped forward with knives and guns, and several cars were opened, revealing the white silver bricks placed in them.
It was so full, not to mention the Tibetans, they couldn't even stuff the flies, and the generals waved their hands impatiently, and the soldiers put away their weapons and retreated.
"Let's go."
The general said.
The steward smiled and thanked him, and jumped into the carriage.
"Let's go, send the money."
He said in a loud voice.
The general shook his head and sneered as the carriage drove out of the city gate.
"I'm so happy to send money."
He said, ignoring it no longer, solemnly and vigilantly inspecting the inside and outside of the city gate, "It's all optimistic, once you find Cheng Guogong's family, you will be killed." ”,。
