Qin Xiao seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and said: "Since you know that to achieve great things, you must first work hard, that's great. There is a horse yard in the camp where you can cut materials, a blacksmith shop, and a stable where you can feed the horses.
, yes, you can also go to the kitchen to help. Food for thousands of people a day requires a lot of help. At least you won't go hungry there."
Chen Zhitai pestered him several times, but Qin Xiao knew that if this person was outside, he must be the one causing trouble, so it would be better to let him do some chores in the camp.
Although he is just a riding school, he should not have any big problem if he arranges for someone to do chores in the camp.
"Let's go to the stables." Chen Zhitai seemed to have already thought of his own way, and said with a smile: "I'll feed the horses. It's quite comfortable to ride a horse when I have time."
Although Qin Xiao had not been in Baihuying for too long, Captain He from the horse yard and Captain Cao from the stable were both familiar with each other, so it was not difficult to arrange for someone to go in. He nodded and smiled: "Then you go to the stable." Call him.
One person ordered: "Take Chen Zhitai to the stables and tell Captain Cao that I want him to help in the stables. You can see if Captain Cao is short of people. If so, let him stay and help."
Some chores."
Chen Zhitai's face was filled with joy. He felt that this was the first step towards honoring his ancestors. He repeatedly handed over his hands and said, "Thank you so much to the riding school. If you keep these paintings, they will be worth a lot of money in the future." He was taken away.
Qin Xiao knew in his heart that the painting work of these paintings was rough. Either Chen Zhitai had been brutally slaughtered once, or this guy was telling lies. According to Chen Zhitai's nature, he still preferred that this guy was bragging. I'm afraid these paintings wouldn't be used.
One tael of silver.
Cao Duizheng obviously still gave Qin Xiao face, so Chen Zhitai was directly arranged to enter the stable.
Of course, the Yuwen family has never been short of money.
Although the military system of eight hundred is strictly followed, there are also many logistics personnel, and these logistics personnel are all strong and have the opportunity to be added to the establishment at any time.
Chen Zhitai is tall and strong, and if such a person is willing to do chores in Baihu Camp, Baihu Camp will naturally want him.
Qin Xiao's prediction was good. Within two days of returning to the camp, Yuwen Chengchao sent Zhao Yi to inform Qin Xiao and ordered Qin Xiao to take people to Fucheng early the next morning and meet directly at Longhe Trading House.
Qin Xiao received the notice and went to see Yuan Shangyu first. Yuan Shangyu naturally knew about this matter a long time ago and told Qin Xiao to ensure the safety of Yuwen Chengchao during this trip. If Geng Shao also participated in the escort, Yuan Shangyu even mentioned
Not even a word was mentioned.
Early the next morning, before it was dark, Qin Xiao took Geng Shao and his party and set off for Fucheng. This time he mounted the Black Overlord. Geng Shao and others' mounts really didn't dare to get too close to the Black Overlord, and they were very self-conscious.
The ground follows the Black Overlord.
Xiling horses are already strong and strong, and Black Overlord is the best among them. However, Qin Xiao is young and slender. Riding on the horse makes Black Overlord even more muscular, which is quite uncoordinated.
Qin Xiao saw that Geng Shao and others were able to control their horses freely. Although they were galloping all the way, their formation was uniform from beginning to end. He secretly sighed in his heart. Although these knights were not weak in skills, it also proved that the Xiling clan clan was indeed very powerful.
After entering the city, it was not bright yet.
When Zhao Yi went to notify yesterday, he roughly explained the location of Longhe Trading House, but Fenggan City was too big. Qin Xiao asked for directions twice on the way. When the first ray of dawn fell on the earth, he finally found Longhe.
The location of the trading house.
The street in front of the trading house is very spacious. There are more than 20 large cars on the street at this moment. All the cars have small flags on them. The flags on the first dozen cars have the word "田" written on them.
But the vehicles all have the word "Dou" written on them.
These trucks are different from ordinary trucks in that each requires two horses and can carry a large amount of cargo.
Qin Xiao knew that this trip out of customs was originally planned by the trading house. He arranged for Tian Dou and his family to go to Tangren City for trade. It was not easy to go out. In addition to carefully preparing popular goods, the more goods, the better.
.
The streets were full of carriage drivers and horsemen. They were a little surprised to see Qin Xiao and others coming.
Qin Xiao turned over and dismounted, and heard Ning Zhifeng's voice coming from the other side: "Brother Wang, this way."
Qin Xiao threw the reins of the horse to Geng Shao who came up and waved to Ning Zhifeng. Ning Zhifeng had already walked over with a smile. His dress today was different from the past, with a green outfit and a bamboo hat hanging around his waist. He said with a smile: "
You guys came quite early."
"How is Brother Ning's injury?" Qin Xiao thought about Ning Zhifeng being injured two days ago, but it seemed to be nothing serious at the moment.
Ning Zhifeng patted Qin Xiao on the shoulder. Qin Xiao cared about his injury, which moved him a bit: "If I hadn't rescued him that time, I might not have been able to come back alive. I will remember this kindness in my heart."
"Brother Ning, please don't say that." Qin Xiao said hurriedly: "At that time, everyone lived and died together, so naturally we had to take care of each other."
"We live and die together, that's a good saying." Ning Zhifeng laughed and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just a few flesh wounds. Apply high-quality wound medicine and you can fully recover in a few days."
Qin Xiao frowned and said: "Your injury has not recovered yet. This trip to Wutuo is a long and hard journey. I'm afraid it will affect your injury."
"Don't say this in front of the eldest son." Ning Zhifeng said solemnly: "The eldest son didn't want me to go with him. It took me a lot of words to convince him to agree. You have to say this in front of him.
He insists on taking back his words." He sighed and said, "No one can guess what will happen when the eldest son comes out of seclusion. Even if I die, I will stay with the eldest son to protect him."
Qin Xiao sighed in his heart, no matter what, these people under Yuwen Chengchao were really loyal to him.
"That's right, I was just talking and almost forgot about the real thing." Ning Zhifeng said hurriedly: "Everyone, please go inside and change your clothes."
"Changing clothes?" Qin Xiao looked back and saw that Geng Shao and others were wearing casual clothes when they left the camp this time.
"After you leave the city, you will all be the bodyguards of Longhe Trading House." Ning Zhifeng explained: "The bodyguards of the trading house have special clothes, which have been prepared for you. Just go in and change into them." He looked at Geng Shao and others.
, smiled and said: "As expected, they are all brave warriors."
Qin Xiao thought that since there was an arrangement, all he had to do was follow it.
Ning Zhifeng led everyone into the trading house. There was a room specially used for changing clothes. While everyone was changing clothes, Ning Zhifeng finally said: "Do you know the purpose of this trip?"
"I haven't told everyone yet." Qin Xiao said.
"Well, everyone, I have sent you here this time to protect the caravan heading to Wutuo." Ning Zhifeng said: "This batch of goods is very important and cannot be lost. The eldest son is worried that the people in the trading house are not brave enough, so he asked Wang Qixiao to
I will take you with me to protect the caravan. The eldest master said that when we come back, everyone will be rewarded heavily."
Only then did Geng Shao and others know that they were going to Wu Tuo. They were a little surprised, and a cold and stern look appeared in Geng Shao's eyes.
Qin Xiao saw this and knew that Geng Shao had a bloody feud with the Wu Tuo people. When he heard that he was going to Wu Tuo, he naturally had murderous intentions.
"If the journey from here to Tangren City goes smoothly, it will take at least half a month." Ning Zhifeng looked serious: "It's not bad inside the pass, but after leaving Kunlun Pass
, is the territory of the Wutuo people. No matter what situation we encounter, everyone must work together to complete this mission well."
Everyone cupped their hands and said, "Follow the order."
Qin Xiao and others put on the same clothes as Ning Zhifeng, and each of them had a hat.
"The eldest master hasn't come here yet?"
"We have arrived, and we are talking to Deputy Commander Liu in the back room." Ning Zhifeng said: "By the way, the eldest son has given the order. The eldest son is the commander of the guards for this trip, and you will be the deputy commander. Many matters on the way will be left to you.
Come and make arrangements. Especially the security for this trip. In addition to your brothers, the trading house and bodyguards, plus a few of us, they are all under your unified command."
"How is this possible?" Qin Xiao was taken aback and waved his hand: "Brother Ning, this... this is not possible."
It was natural for Yuwen Chengchao to appoint himself as the guard commander, but to ask him to serve as deputy commander or even command the caravan's guards really surprised Qin Xiao.
Fat Yu and others will naturally follow him out of seclusion. Whether it is Fat Fish, Dapeng, or even Ning Zhifeng, they are much more experienced than themselves. Logically speaking, one of these people should be selected as the deputy commander.
"Nothing is impossible." Ning Zhifeng smiled and said: "What the eldest son decides will not change. You serve as the deputy commander, and none of us have anything to say. Haha, I know you think Fat Fish is more suitable, but if you really want to
Let him direct everyone, and Lao Zhao can chatter from here all the way to Tangren City. With the eldest son’s arrangement, Lao Zhao will not be nagging, and everyone will have clean ears.”
Qin Xiao thought to himself that Ning Zhifeng's words were correct. Since Yuwen Chengchao had already made arrangements, he must have thought carefully about it. Even if he objected, it would be useless.
After changing his clothes and going out to the courtyard, Qin Xiao was about to take everyone out, but Ning Zhifeng had already said: "Brother Wang, don't go out in a hurry. The eldest son asked you to burn incense together later, I will take you there first.
"Xiang Geng Shao and others said with a smile: "Brothers, you should not have had breakfast yet." He raised his hand and pointed in one direction: "You go through the door and walk a short way forward. There is a house with a yellow door.
We’ve got breakfast, let’s go eat something first, and after eating, just wait in the street.”
Geng Shao looked at Qin Xiao, who nodded. Then everyone bowed their hands to Ning Zhifeng and headed to the dining hall for breakfast.
"Brother Wang, the eldest son really has a keen eye and has not chosen the wrong person." Ning Zhifeng looked at the backs of Geng Shao and others: "Looking at their eyes, they are convinced of you. If you ask them to go up mountains of swords and seas of fire, they will never
Will disobey."
Before Qin Xiao could speak, he heard a voice coming from behind: "Ning Fifth Master, have you had breakfast?"
Qin Xiao turned around and followed the sound, and saw two middle-aged men in brocade walking over, one tall and one short. The taller one was wearing a purple brocade robe, and the short one was wearing a blue robe. They were both about the same age.
Early fifties.
"Shopkeeper Tian, Shopkeeper Dou." Ning Zhifeng cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Let me introduce you, Brother Wang, you already know these two, the two shopkeepers, this is the Wang Cavalry School, and the eldest son has ordered that the Wang Cavalry School will serve as
The deputy commander will command all the guards of the caravan and protect the caravan. You should get to know each other first."
"It turns out to be Wang Riding School, Xiao Laotian and Tong." The short man was broad and fat, smiled like Maitreya Buddha, and had a rather kind face: "Heroes come out of young boys. The eldest son has already told us that he will be transferred from Baihu Camp.
We were a little worried about the elite protection of the caravan before, but now that the King's Cavalry School has arrived, we feel at ease."
Although Shopkeeper Dou also smiled, Qin Xiao could see that the smile was forced and his brows were full of worry.
