Qiao An glanced at their mighty team and sighed, "I know, natural and man-made disasters, right?" ”

"Yes, yes." The young man beside the old man nodded.

Sister Hong discussed with Qiao An, but still didn't let them go to the city, but they were ready to give them alms, in the middle of the night, there were more than a dozen cauldrons outside the city gate, and the red lady was busy before and after, there were military doctors to heal the injured people, and there were good hands and feet to set up tents for them.

But an hour or so, the tents were set up, and after everyone had eaten, they were regained their spirits, and knelt in front of them and kowtowed, and Joan began to understand the situation.

The old lord of Broken Leaf City was an old man, he was in good spirits, and the reason why he chose to lead his tribe to migrate to Qiao An and their Jiang country was entirely because he believed in Qiao An and Sister Hong's character.

"You also dare to gamble, which makes us really shut you out. Aren't you finished? You guys are really good at wishful thinking. Sister Hong got up angrily and scolded, "Today I ate 200 stone of rice a day, and my women's army wants to eat it for half a year, so I will eat it all in one go." ”

Hearing Sister Hong's scolding, Qiao An smiled, and the elder also knew that Sister Hong was joking, so he also laughed.

led everyone to kowtow to Sister Hong again, and Sister Hong said: "Okay, okay, when you have food in the future, you will have to pay it back three times, don't forget, as for how you should eat or how to eat, continue tomorrow." ”

Qiao An saw that this group of people were all young and middle-aged, and knew that Broken Leaf City must have left behind a lot of old, weak, sick and disabled, so she discussed with Sister Hong, and asked the Red Lady to send five carts of food to save her life, and the old lord burst into tears and was grateful.

Qiao An personally escorted, the food was delivered in a timely manner, everyone almost did not starve to death, everyone saw Qiao An and Sister Hong coming, one by one, long live, and Sister Hong was fluttering.

The old lord took Qiao An to look around, and found that they were very dry here, and the reason why the grain harvest was not guaranteed this year was entirely because of the decline in drinking water, Shen Qiao An and Sister Hong followed the old lord for a long time, and finally made up their minds to help them build water conservancy.

The old lord was willing to pay tribute every year, and be a minister every year.

After discovering that they had no bad intentions, Qiao An and Sister Hong asked people to bring more than half of the 30,000 people to Jiang Guo, and they were willing to stay and began to work on settling down.

As for the red ladies, they began to build water conservancy for the people of Broken Leaf City, and everyone was very busy, and that group of young and middle-aged people cultivated a lot of fertile land and built a lot of houses, and the geography of Jiang Country gradually expanded, needless to say.

Before a summer rain arrived, Qiao An's water conservancy was also repaired, Sister Hong and Qiao An bathed in the gentle rain with umbrellas, and the old lord and everyone laughed happily in the rain.

"Before, they all said that our Jiang country is yin and yang, and what is the chicken Sichen, but now we also have 20,000 men in our country, see what they will say in the future." Sister Hong smiled and touched her lips.

Qiao An also smiled, "This is called near and far, and more people will join us in the future." ”

They did good deeds to the end, and dug five sweet wells in each village, all of which hinted at a good year in the coming year, and the old lord gave thanks and shouted three long live.

The earth shook with the shouts of long live, Shen Qiaoan and Sister Hong were a little faintly uneasy, this imperial capital was the first time in ancient times to improve the status of women, and they were a little worried.

Not surprisingly, after Shen Qiaoan and Sister Hong helped the natives of Shattered Leaf City deal with the water conservancy problem, more monarchies came to take refuge in them.

Last autumn was a tumultuous one, but this year's spring is so thriving.

The two of them were in a hurry for this matter, because of the matter of the hungry people, Shen Qiao'an Tete asked Cai Ge to discuss, "Recently, the border defense has been flawless, I mean, you patrol the surrounding area to see if there are any people who need help, so that they can all come to our Jiang country." ”

"Lord, do you still contain people?"

"If there is a small family, there will be everyone, go ahead." Shen Qiaoan waved his hand, and Cai Ge was busy.

Sister Hong has also been busy these days, but both of them are very happy.

The so-called "some people are happy and some people are sad", but when Shen Qiaoan was immersed in happiness, Li Zhongxuan on the road was not happy at all, his expression was very solemn.

It's been more than ten days, they have looked for all the places they can find in the surroundings, and they don't see the slightest clue, the two of them are sleeping in the open, to say Li Zhongxuan, his body is originally strong, and he often runs around outside, and there is no big problem.

But Fang Se is a girl after all, a little unbearable, Li Zhongxuan asked Fang Se to rest more, but Fang Se said: "Now you and I have a man to rely on each other, I don't help my brother much, who will help my brother, my brother can rest assured, my own body knows by myself." ”

During the day, Li Zhongxuan and they hurried, and after arriving in the town, Li Zhongxuan looked for that kind of coolie to see, and the two of them ate something good at night, and they would meet and hear.

On this day, when the two arrived in a small town, Li Zhongxuan looked at his money bag, and there were already twenty taels of silver, which was a "big" amount of money for them.

Li Zhongxuan thought for a long time and gave Fang Se a white lie, "Actually, I won't tell you anything, my family was in business at the beginning of this year, and I encountered a wind and sand in Broken Leaf City, and it was like flying sand and stones, and after the wind and clouds faded, the horses fell into the quicksand, and the people were scattered, so I fell into this field, and I will return to my old business tomorrow and do some business." ”

In fact, Li Zhongxuan is observing along the way, the closer to the royal capital, the more expensive the price, especially the cloth, Jiang Guo is far away from the south of the Yangtze River, the terroir is not suitable for silkworm raising, and silk fabrics are particularly expensive in the city.

And the place where cotton can really be planted is concentrated in Longyou, so the cotton and silk fabrics here are things that can make a fortune, but coincidentally, he has seen it, and no one sells these.

"What is my brother going to do tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow you rest at the inn for a day, and I will ride to Broken Leaf City, transport cotton and cloth, and shoot near Jiang Country, and so on."

"Isn't that too hard?" Fang Se looked at Li Zhongxuan.

Li Zhongxuan smiled, "The businessman is already wandering all over the world, don't inquire about the news if you go out alone tomorrow, just wait for me at the inn, I promise to come back around the time of Shen, and I have to count the silver with you." ”

On this day, they settled in a relatively prosperous town, and the next day, Fang Se woke up, and saw a piece of paper stuffed into the crack of the door, which repeatedly told Fang Se not to walk around.

According to the original plan, Li Zhongxuan earned three hundred taels with only twenty taels of silver, Fang Se was impressed by Li Zhongxuan, and Li Zhongxuan was so punctual, he really came back around Shenshi, today they had a bumper harvest, Li Zhongxuan bought some food.

"Brother Xiao Yan, you are really amazing, I thought you wouldn't be depressed for the rest of your life, are we considered Jitai to come?"

"Not really, when we have a lot of money, even if Jitai comes."

On the second day, everything was as usual yesterday, the only difference was that Fang Se asked to join, in this way, Li Zhongxuan was a lot easier, Fang Se herself was a girl, and when she bargained with others, she only needed Chu Chu to stop pitifully, and everyone was reluctant to embarrass her too much.

Today's income is more than yesterday's, just like that, the two of them keep going back and forth this way, and there is already a lot of money.

"Tomorrow, are you still here?" Fang Se looked at the setting sun in the distance.

"Tomorrow, go farther away and look for it close to Jiang Guo."

"Do you really think your friend is still alive?" Fang Se finally asked this sentence, and Li Zhongxuan sighed, "Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven." ”

On the second day, the two urged their horses to go to the largest town near Jiang Guo, where there were many people in Fufu, and the two bought a lot of food and entertainment.

"Let's go to this inn and get some food, brother." Fang Se was a little tired and pointed to a restaurant next to him.

When the two arrived at the door of the restaurant, Li Zhongxuan saw an unkempt beggar, who was tall and well-looking, basking in the sun under the dripping eaves, his hair had not been washed for a long time, his clothes were in tatters, and even if he didn't get close, there was a stench.

Fang Se and Li Zhongxuan glanced at this person, and the person did not look up lazily.

"I'll give you two taels of silver, and you give it to the man, so that he can buy something to eat, and don't go hungry." When Li Zhongxuan saw this person, he was inexplicably sad, he thought of himself who had gone to the inn.

Who hasn't had a period of shortness of breath for a hero at the end of the road, and everything is fine after the end.

But he couldn't give him silver, which was very hurtful to people's self-esteem, but it was different if Fang Se gave him silver.

Li Zhongxuan went to the inn, Fang Se approached the man, and gave the man two taels of silver, but the man didn't even raise his eyelids.

"What does the girl want me to do? I'm not going to be able to do anything. The man's voice was so loud that it didn't match his downcast appearance at all.

"I," Fang Se was inexplicably a little afraid, and said Ai Ai, "My brother wants me to buy you money to eat, and we don't want you to do anything." ”

"Sorry then, I don't want to!" The beggar didn't even look at the silver, and Fang Se thought that the beggar was too little, so he took out two taels and carefully placed them in his hand.

"If the girl really doesn't have a place to help, please go."

"I just look at you pitiful!" Fang Se said in fear.

"Poor!" The man's face changed, and he said sharply: "What do you mean by pity, where am I pitiful, get out of the way." ”

Fang Se was frightened, picked up the silver and left, and went to the inn to tell Li Zhongxuan about it, Li Zhongxuan didn't think that this person didn't know what to do, "I'm afraid that he has encountered something troublesome, and the taste of a broken family is always uncomfortable." ”

Some of the feelings, he deeply experienced.

"What then?" Although Fang Se was a little afraid, but after all, he was still willing to help, Li Zhongxuan smiled and waved his hand to the little second brother, "Send two catties of sauce beef and five steamed buns and a pot of good wine to the person at the door, count it on my account." ”

"My lord," the little second brother said, "he won't want it, we see him pitiful, he has been charity before, he has to do things for us, let him do chores and he doesn't do it, this person likes to fight, you don't know that he beat a thief the day before yesterday, but the owner gave him silver and he didn't want it, you say it's strange or not." ”

Li Zhongxuan looked at the man and secretly thought, this person is strong in martial arts, if he really does something against evil, he is afraid that no one will be able to do anything to him, but he has his own beliefs, it can be seen that he is a true gentleman, and he can't help but admire him a little deeper.

"He said that he wanted to drive away bullies for us, and he won't tell you anything, there has always been a group of people coming over to eat and drink for nothing recently, and our boss is looking for the county master, and the county master doesn't dare to start, so he just says endure it."

"Is there such a thing?" Li Zhongxuan shook his fists and sleeves, and Fang Se next to him was afraid that Li Zhongxuan would cause trouble, so he was secretly anxious, called "brother", and shook his head helplessly at Li Zhongxuan.

She didn't know that Li Zhongxuan would do martial arts.
