Jiang Hexi smiled and said, "Old man, how are you doing? Do you want to use some food?"
"eat!"
The old man was obviously very hungry and had difficulty, so he said these few words.
There was hot water in Jiang Xiaofang's carriage, so he hurriedly soaked a pack of instant noodles for him.
Otherwise, instant noodles are reliable at this time.
That's right, but in just a short while there will be food, you can't stop rushing to the road.
When the old man smelled the scent of food, his tears fell down and his fingers couldn't hold the chopsticks firmly.
It was Jiang Hexi who was standing aside and picked food for him to eat.
After eating such a bowl of noodles, the old man calmed down.
Jiang Hexi did not ask about his origin, but said, "Old man, we are going to Fuzhou completely. If you want to take a ride, we can take you to Fuzhou. There is a small town in front. You can get off in the town.
.”
The old man was silent for a moment and said, "Go to Fuzhou."
He paused and said, "Little girl, I owe you a life."
"I'm welcome, I'm just a simple task."
This is indeed a slight effort for Jiang Hexi.
Born in a peaceful era, she couldn't bear to die just before her.
The convoy kept rushing, and when it was almost dark, it really came to a small border town.
The town is very small, with only two small rows of streets.
Manager Yin came to the inn when he was familiar with the door and everyone started to make tips and trim.
Jiang Hexi was a little worried about his goods, but seeing that Manager Yin usually asked the people below to lead the carriage to the stables of the inn, he asked Uncle Jiang San and others to lead the horse over.
This horse is a precious thing and can be repaired and needs good horse feed.
Jiang Hexi spent an extra liang of silver to buy good horse materials.
When he entered the inn, the quilt covers in the inn were a little moldy and there was no food that he could like to eat. When Jiang Hexi saw these foods, the steamed buns were as hard as gnawing stones, cold soup and cold stoves, and meat dishes were smelly.
Everyone had no appetite when they saw it.
Manager Yin took a look at him normally and took an extra ten taels of silver to ask the shopkeeper to cut beef beef, serve wine, and make some special dishes.
After a while, the fragrance immediately came from the kitchen.
Seeing this, Jiang Hexi also understood that this was a cost of extra money.
Jiang Erbao went to ask about the price, and came back to smack his tongue and said, "Dalang, such a small plate of bean sprouts costs 100 a lot of money."
Mu Jiang Hexi thought for a while, went to the shopkeeper to buy some vegetarian dishes, spent 200 cents to rent the kitchen.
She was not worried about the meat food here.
Anyway, I bought the dried meat and had the sausages myself, and just cut some diced meat.
In fact, not everyone is as willing to spend money like Jiang Hexi and Manager Yin.
Most other people buy things directly from the store.
Jiang Hexi and everyone made a fire together, made a large pot of meat rice, fried two more vegetables, and ate a pot of bamboo shoots, mushrooms, chicken and feather soup with less.
Because I have the jerky meat I made myself, such a big pot of food really makes people unable to take their eyes off.
In the north, mushrooms are abundant. Jiang Hexi specially collected a lot of mushrooms and brought them with him this time. Everyone couldn't stop eating this pot of chicken, feather, bamboo shoots, and mushroom soup.
The soup tastes so delicious that it is extremely delicious, and the ordinary chicken feathers are also made with a unique flavor.
Even Manager Yin and the captain of the guard Zhou Shan also came to ask for a bowl.
After dinner, Jiang Hexi brought his tribe members to the lower-class room they rented.
Jiang Hexi said to the second uncle and third uncle and others, "Second uncle and third uncle, I am not at ease with the goods outside. Although we moved into the store, our people still have to watch the night. We offer all our wealth.
No, the goods are always not assured to be placed in the livestock room. If there is something, we will lose everything and have nothing left. So, even if we work harder, we have to pay attention to the goods."
Uncle Jiang Er and Uncle San said, "Leave it to us. Children, you can have a good rest."
Jiang Hexi said, "Second uncle and third uncle, if you arrange the manpower, it's better to arrange the handover between the middle of the night, so that it's not that sleepy."
"Okay. That's it!"
Everyone discussed some details before they dispersed.
That night, Uncle Jiang Er, Uncle Jiang San and others specially arranged for the meticulous adults to take a young and strong man to watch the night.
Seeing that everything was arranged, Jiang Hexi took Da Ya to sleep with peace of mind.
For safety, Jiang Hexi and others rented a large shop. All the Jiang clan members temporarily built a floor shop and did not separate them.
Jiang Hexi was very at ease with his second brother Jiang and Da Ya.
Da Ya patted her head and said, "Young Master, don't worry, I will protect you well!"
"good!"
Jiang Hexi smiled and touched her head.
Because she was so tired that she fell asleep quickly because she had been rushing through the day.
On the other hand, Jiang Ershu and Jiang Erbao also began to watch.
The two of them came to the cafeteria in the inn. All the caravans' goods were placed in separate areas. They looked at them from afar, which was quite spectacular.
Uncle Jiang Er looked at it and was about to walk to his carriage. At this time, Zhou Shan, the captain of the carriage guard, and a few people, also walked towards the carriage's carriage's goods.
When he saw Uncle Jiang Er, Zhou Shan smiled and said, "You guys come and watch the night."
Uncle Jiang said hurriedly, "Yes! I hope to take care of you more at that time!"
Zhou Shan had a good impression of them, and ate the Jiang family's food. He looked around and said, "Your goods will be moved to the open space here, and the carriage will be brought over together."
Uncle Jiang Er looked at the place next to him and said, "Isn't this a place where you pile up goods? Can you put it down?"
"I just need to let someone move the goods away."
"Then I'll thank you brother Zhoushan."
Uncle Jiang solemnly clasped his fists to the other party.
It is naturally excellent to be able to move your own carriage and cargo next to the Zhou family's convoy.
The Zhou family’s guards mainly guard the Zhou family’s goods. If there are bandits, the goods near the Zhou family will naturally be fine, but the goods next to them will be hard to say.
There were so many small merchants following the Zhou family's fleet, and the goods of these people were placed on the periphery. I wonder what would happen!
After all, the weather is not peaceful now, and even Zhoushan has to take the lead in guarding the night. It can be seen that the night is not so peaceful. It is a great idea to have such a good location.
After moving the goods over, Uncle Jiang Er and others felt much more relieved and wanted to chat with Zhou Shan.
Zhou Shan said, "It's great that you can still think about watching the night."
Uncle Jiang tentatively said, "This night?"
"It's hard to say. Be careful, it's always right."
Uncle Jiang San's heart was shocked.
In the inn, more small businessmen and some people discovered Zhou Shan and others vigil.
However, some people felt that there would be no accident with the guards of the Zhou family caravan guards, so they threw the goods and went to the inn's room to sleep.
Of course, there are also people who guard the master like Uncle Jiang.
In the first half of the night, everything was still stable.
When Uncle Jiang was relieved when he arrived, he successfully handed over to Uncle Jiang San.
In the second half of the night, Jiang San Uncle took Jiang Erhu to vigil.
When Jiang Erhu got up, he complained, "Uncle San, is this vigil really necessary? Didn't I say, who is not old enough? Everyone listens to her for anything? Now there is a Zhou family businessman
The team is here, and the thief is brave enough to come and rob.”
Uncle Jiang San frowned and said, "How do you say this child? Just listen carefully, look good, listen carefully to the instructions."
"I know, I know."
Jiang Erhu rolled his eyes, yawned, and followed Uncle Jiang San.
In the cafeteria, cold wind blew from time to time. Jiang Sanshu and Jiang Erhu were both young and strong. They tightened their clothes and did not feel cold.
When they arrived at the carriage they belonged to, the two found a shelter and started to watch.
It was pitch dark at night, with only the torches on the side swaying with a glimmer of light. The horses who were exhausted during the day were already lying on the ground and squinting.
Looking at the caravan next to him, because he was too tired to travel during the day, even when he came to watch, someone was wearing a thick quilt and fell asleep in the corner next to him.
The temperature difference between morning and evening is large. In the second half of the night, a cold wave comes. Compared to the warm bed, no one wants to come out to blow the cold wind.
Jiang Erhu looked around and said to Uncle Jiang San, "Uncle San, look, I'll just say, it's nothing at all, why is the labor and energy cost? Why do you lean on it for a while, tomorrow
We are going to rush forward!”
Uncle Jiang San couldn't take this brat, so he could only say, "Then you can rest in the carriage, I'll take a look."
"Okay, I'll go to the carriage to rest. Uncle San, don't bother. With the Zhou family caravan here, which thief has been brave enough to come to our place to rob?"
Uncle Jiang San was too lazy to care about him and could only patrol alone.
The second half of the night is the easiest time for people to fall asleep. After Jiang Erhu ran to the carriage, he fell asleep within a while.
Next to the nearby carriage, people couldn't help but sleep on the carriage.
Uncle Jiang San looked around and found that everyone had started to sleep.
On the side, even the people from the nearby Zhou family caravan began to doze off.
Uncle Jiang San frowned, and a hint of hidden worries flashed through him.
Is this really OK? Is it safe to stay in the first half of the night?
He had never gone far and no one gave him an answer, so he kept his hidden worries in his heart.
Uncle Jiang San just observed in the dark for a while.
Finally, when he saw everyone resting, he thought that he should trust the Zhou family caravan, so hesitated for a while, and finally came to his carriage, intending to take a nap.
When he was squinting, he suddenly heard a giggling movement from the outside.
This movement made him suddenly shudder and his eyes widened.
He subconsciously lifted the carriage and looked outward, and suddenly he saw people swaying in the dim light on the outside of the convoy. After closer inspection, he found that these people were moving goods on the ground.
The goods outside the caravan are all goods from small merchants, and most of them are goods purchased by others through bankruptcy, just to make a living.
