555 One tael of silver and one bowl of white water (Blast 8)

The man immediately stopped the horse and bent over to check it. He found that the axle was broken. He looked around vigilantly. The carriage of the escort agency would check on one side every day, for fear that there would be some accident on the way out of the escort. How could the axle not be broken suddenly?

"What's wrong?"

Qin's father was afraid that people would see it, so he didn't dare to lift the curtain and asked in a deep voice.

"The axle is broken, you guys wait!"

The man wanted to stop a carriage and give the other party some money to send them to the escort agency, but a curfew was about to come. There were very few pedestrians on the road, let alone carriages.

"Two guys, let's go over."

Qin's father and mother got off the carriage. Not far away, the drums of curfew sounded, and several people accelerated their pace. Seeing that the escort agency was about to cross the street, a team of patrol soldiers discovered them, "Who?"

The man signaled the two to stop, and he walked up alone and smiled, "We are from the Weiyuan Escort Agency. We are late to come back, so please help Jun Ye."

As he said that, he stuffed a ingot of silver to the leading soldier. The leading soldier weighed it without hesitation and signaled him to call Qin's father and mother forward.

The man turned around and waved his hand. The two of them came over. As soon as they approached, the leading soldier frowned slightly, "Isn't this Qin Qian's parents? When did he become a member of your escort agency?"

The three were shocked.

Just as the man was about to say something, the leader's eyes fell on him, "Can the rumors from the outside world be true? Qin Qian is really not dead. Are you trying to smuggle him out of the city in the middle of the night?"

"No, no!"

The man waved his hands in panic, "It was these two who also heard the rumors today, and wanted to ask the people from our escort agency to ask if it was true, so..."

"You are fooling around, please ask you what you did during the day, and you have to go all the way to the middle of the night?"

"They made a fuss in the county government during the day and didn't dare to go out, so they went to the escort agency at this time..."

As he said that, he took out a silver note from his arms and quickly stuffed it into the leader's hand, "Our escort agency has been doing something illegal and unlawful for so many years, and we won't do anything this time."

The leader looked at him a few times and put away the bill.

"It's midnight, don't stroll on the street. Let's go back alone, we'll pretend we didn't see it."

“Yes, yes, yes.”

The man winked at Qin's father and mother, and walked towards the Weiyuan Escort Agency himself, and Qin's father and mother also turned around.

I don't know whether it was intentional or along the way, a pair of soldiers followed them all the way to the inn gate. Seeing that they were in, they turned around and walked away elsewhere.

Not far away, the leading soldier raised his hand, everyone stopped, and he went to an alley alone, "Shopkeeper Wei, the matter is done."

Manager Wei gave him a silver note, "This is one hundred taels, and I will buy wine for my brothers."

The leader's eyes lit up, but he said, "There are too many."

"Our young master said that if you can watch them, you will give you this number every day."

"real?"

"Of course it's true, our young master does what he says."

"Leave it to the brothers."

One hundred taels a day, one thousand taels a day, which is faster than picking up money.

"Thank you then."

The leading soldier left happily, and Manager Wei and his two friends walked towards the restaurant.

Inside the escort agency.

The man told everything about what happened just now.

After hearing this, Mrs. Qi was very anxious, "If you can't see your sister and brother-in-law, what should we do next?"

Qi Wu's face looked very bad. He dared to conclude that it was Gu Yi's actions just to stop his sister and brother-in-law from coming.

"He has Zhang Liang's plan. We have a bridge ladder. Tomorrow, I will ask someone to go to the inn where my sister stays to find a room to stay so that we can pass on messages at any time. I don't believe it anymore, so they will be on guard."

"Yes, yes, yes, that's it."

"Since they are not kind, we don't have to be righteous. I will send someone to contact someone named Song Ming tomorrow to see if I can grasp his weakness."

The next day, Songjia Village.

A carriage drove into the village, and the villagers had long been accustomed to it, no one looked at it, and no children were chasing it.

The carriage stopped at the door of the Song family. The servant who accompanied him set up the horse stool and a man got off the carriage.

The servant ran to the door first and shouted inside, "Is there anyone?"

Grandma Song heard the sound, "Are you...?"

"Our young master came here to discuss business with you."

Grandma Song didn't make any decisions about business matters and asked Erya to call Song Shen over.

Song Shen let the person in. When he heard that he wanted herbal tea, he apologized, "Sorry, our workshop is small and we can't make so many, so we can't supply the existing customers."

The man spoke in an accent that was not local, "The workshop will expand in size when it is small. Do you know how big our business is? If you purchase goods, you will need at least twenty trucks each time."

Song Shen kept a decent smile, "I'm really sorry."

The man said a lot again. Seeing that Song Shen never agreed, he became angry and stood up, "It's really a small family. He can't get on the table at all, so he left, he left."

Song Shen politely sent him out and saw him walking away in a carriage, and the smile on his face fell.

Except for a few women who went to work in the Song family, none of the villagers knew about the herbal tea business, let alone outsiders, who obviously came with a purpose.

The carriage suddenly stopped when it reached the door of Song Ming's house.

"What's wrong?"

The man's voice came from inside with anger.

After bent down to check, the coachman carefully replied, "The wheel of the car broke, please ask the young master to come down for a while."

The man got off the carriage and looked around. He saw a big tree at the door of Song Ming's house. He walked over and wanted to sit down, look at his clothes, then look at the dust on the ground, and shouted to Song Ming in the yard, "Come here!"

Song Ming didn't want to pay attention to him.

"I'll give you a tael of silver to bring a stool for me."

One tael of silver?

Song Ming was so happy that he ran into the house and brought a stool out and sent it to him.

The man sat down, and the servant on the side gave Song Ming Yinzi.

Song Ming's eyes dripped a few times, "The weather is so hot, you're thirsty, my family has just dried cold and white, one tael of silver and one big bowl."

The man held his eyes and squinted him.

Song Ming thought the man would not want it, and was about to turn around and leave when he heard the man say, "Get a bowl."

"Okay, you're waiting!"

Song Ming went to the kitchen happily, took a bowl, scooped cold water and washed it again and again, and then poured a bowl of cold white from the jar on the side and started to come out.

The man seemed to be really thirsty, so he took it in his hand, tilted his neck and drank it clean, handed him the bowl, "Another bowl!"

Song Ming was so happy that it was really a person sitting at home, and silver fell from the sky.

The man drank the second bowl completely, and then looked at him up and down, "I said you are missing arms and legs, why don't you go to work in the fields?"
