Volume 40 Chapter 24 Micro Serving
Jinwu City is on the edge of Yanghe County, Youzhou, less than a thousand kilometers away from Baohu City, for ordinary people, the distance from Jinwu City to Baohu City may be a bit long, whether it is by train or airship, it will take a long time, but for a knight, especially for an earth knight like Zhang Tie, flying a distance of 1,000 kilometers is like leaving home to visit the vegetable market, even if he does not use the ability of the Divine Emperor, he can easily fly to Baohu City in less than an hour.
After the New Year, after the fifth day of the new year, there was no more snow in Youzhou, but the weather in Youzhou was still cold, especially in the past few days, the snow was beginning to melt, and the cold in the air was even worse.
Flying in the sky, the mountains and rivers at his feet are white, and in a short time, just before two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Tie flew to the sky above Baohu City, and directly fell into the alley of a sparsely populated residential area near the port in Baohu City.
Zhang Tie, who fell into the alley, lifted the snowproof hood of his cloak and put it on his head, hung the buckle, and covered most of his face at once, only revealing a small part of his eyebrows and eyes.
With Zhang Tie's current reputation in Youzhou, especially in Baohu City, only in this way will he not be recognized as soon as he walks on the street.
These days, Zhang Tie is at home with his family every day, although he will also get some outside news, but these news are always indirect, not intuitive enough, just this time to Huhu City, Zhang Tie also wants to see how the atmosphere in Huhu City is, since he is a knight, and in Taixia. If he didn't plan to completely hide in the Black Iron Castle and be isolated from the world, then, there were some things he couldn't care less about. Zhang Tie, who was born as a small person in the market, knows better that some things and truths can only be seen more truly and concretely in the market.
There is also a thin layer of snow on the ground of the alley. Zhang Tie stepped on the snow, walked out of the alley, and walked out into the street.
The alley is relatively quiet, but the streets outside the alley are quite lively.
When Zhang Tie just walked to the entrance of the alley, more than ten meters in front of him, the door of a family living in the alley squeaked open, and several people walked out, and the people on one side were sending each other off. The people on the other side are leaving.
"Second brother, Deming will be handed over to you, when my mother and I are away, you can discipline him as much as you want, beat him when you should, don't get used to him, you can ask him to do any dirty work in the restaurant!"
It was a middle-aged couple who wanted to leave in plain clothes. At first glance, they came from the countryside outside the city, although the couple was wearing a clean wash of clothes. But it still lets ordinary people know what he does at a glance, and it is the man who speaks, looking honest.
"Big brother, don't worry, Deming is here with me, I will treat him as my own son, as long as we have a bite to eat. He won't be hungry! "It's also a couple who sent people out, but it's a little younger, and the one who is talking now is still a little similar to the face shape that he just spoke, so that people can know that they are two brothers at a glance," I will slowly teach Deming to familiarize himself with the things in the restaurant. You can also be a shopkeeper in the future! ”
"With your words, I'm relieved!"
"It's all a family, at this time, you and your sister-in-law are still polite to us, Deming, come here, say goodbye to your father and your mother, in the future, in the Huhu City, you can only see your father and your mother again in a few months......"
A sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy with red eyes walked out, knelt on the snow at the door and kowtowed to the couple, "Mom and Dad, don't worry, when I learn the skills from my second uncle and save enough money, I will buy a house in the city and bring you ......here."
When Zhang Tie walked over, the few people who were saying goodbye suddenly turned their heads to look at Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie's footsteps were calm, he didn't stop, he didn't want to give people the feeling that he was watching, just like a passerby, he walked past this group of people who were saying goodbye, and came to the bustling street outside.
Although the weather is cold, but in the Huhu City, after the New Year, the street has been lively, after the third day of the new year, the shops and storefronts on the street have been opened, a few of the shops and stores, in the sixth or eighth year of the first month, in order to have an auspicious also opened, dragged to the fifteenth Lantern Festival after the has not opened, that is already very rare, indicating that the store owner may be in the state, and has not come back yet.
On the street of Baohu City, there are still some traces of the Lantern Festival three days ago, and in front of the shops, there are delicate lanterns, and some lanterns are still hanging on the branches of the roadside.
Zhang Tie walked in a walk, he is not the only one wearing the same snowproof hat on the street, Huhucheng is close to the seaside, the sea breeze is colder in winter, these days people who go out to beg for life, do not cover their faces to smear fish oil on their faces, otherwise the wind blows or the face will be a piece of mouth in two days, there are many people who dress up like Zhang Tie in Huhu City, Zhang Tie's clothes are dressed up, in addition to being exquisite and elegant, there is really nothing too special, so no one looks at him much, There are also people on the street who have oily on the backs of their hands and faces, presumably people who are begging for a living on the docks or boats.
"Big brother, I'll call a car to send you!"
"No need, we have been to Baohu City many times, the road is very familiar, when I came with your sister-in-law, I have made an appointment with Li Dazhuang, who came to Baohu City to deliver food in Jingu Tunli, where are we waiting for him at the West Gate, just take his car back, you don't have to send it, go back......"
The street outside the alley happened to be east-west, and Zhang Tie didn't hesitate to come to the street outside, so he turned directly to the west, walking unhurriedly.
The voice in the alley still came to his ears, and without looking back, Zhang Tie knew that the couple from the countryside had refused to send each other, and the person who sent them still sent them to the entrance of the alley, and the people on both sides said a few words, and then separated, the couple from the countryside walked thirty meters behind Zhang Tie, and the person who gave it back to his home and closed the door.
After walking behind Zhang Tie for a while, he saw that he was far away from the alley, and the woman who had not spoken just now in the older couple suddenly said something.
"My brother-in-law didn't speak just now, and I'm a little worried......"
The man was silent for a moment, then nodded affirmatively. "Don't worry, the second brother is an assertive person, and he can also be the master in his family, when the second child came to Hucheng to develop, it was a small restaurant that a few brothers in the family pooled money for him, for this. The family's land has been sold for more than ten acres, and I have also sold a few cows, you have also seen it over the years, the second child is not the kind of person who forgets his roots, he has helped the family all these years, not to mention that he still watched Deming grow up, no matter what, he is Deming's uncle, and he will not treat Deming badly! ”
"That being said, I'm still a little worried. After all, letting Deming come to Hucheng this time is not a matter of only staying for three or five months, after a long time, it is inevitable that the second brother's family will have some ideas......"
"Hey, isn't there no way around it!" The honest man sighed, "In the past two days, those who have connections and abilities in our village have hurriedly sent the children of the family to the city, and a few of Liu Yuanwai's family heard that they were directly sent to Youzhou City and entered a school. Lao Cao sent his youngest son to Jinguang City as an apprentice, and even the two people from Li Lezi's family were sent by Li Lezi to the sawmill opened by his maternal uncle in Baohu City. This is always safer in the city than in the countryside, a few years ago in the countryside was fine, it was relatively stable, but now it is dangerous to live in the country, I heard that the states where blood people came. Hundreds of villages, just outside the city, were fine the first day, but after one night they were killed by bloody people, and there was not a single living mouth left. Many people have also become the rations of the bloody people, and the three or five meter-high guardrails and walls outside the village can only defend against ordinary beasts and ordinary thieves, for the bloody people, they will pass by lifting their legs, and the ordinary village can't prevent it at all, the bloody people have arrived in Youzhou a few days ago, and I heard that many people have died, so we can't help but find a way for Deming......"
"I'm worried about Deming......"
"The world is in chaos all of a sudden, it's okay for Deming to suffer a little, as long as he saves his life, everything is fine, by the way, what about the set of emerald ornaments you keep at home, when you find a chance to hug Hucheng next time, you bring it, you quietly send it to your brother and daughter-in-law, don't let the second child know, this is your woman's business, you don't need me to teach you."
"Ah, that's what I left for Dehua to marry a daughter-in-law in the future, no matter how our family is, if you want to marry a daughter-in-law, there must always be two pieces of decent jewelry!" The woman looked a little surprised, and there was also some reluctance.
"Dehua is in the army now, so he can't use it for the time being, so let's handle the affairs of Deming's side first! As long as the two brothers can live well, they are better than anything else! Big deal, when spring begins, I'll find another opportunity to go to the mountains to see if I can try my luck and find a few wild ginseng roots......"
"I'll listen to ......you," the woman was silent for a moment, then nodded......
Zhang Tie knew that it was very dangerous to pick ginseng in a place like Youzhou, especially for the ninth-level warriors, because in the mountains where wild ginseng can grow, there must be no shortage of all kinds of demonic beasts and beasts.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world!
Zhang Tie let out a long sigh in his heart, he didn't expect that even in a state and county like Youzhou Baohu City, which was far away from the Bloody Rebellion, the Bloody Rebellion in Taixia would also cause such a huge impact on the surrounding areas of Baohu City, so that the people who lived outside the city began to try their best to get their family members to come to the city in order to seek a safe shelter.
If you look closely at the flow of people on the street, it seems that there are really more people than when I came here twice.
Youzhou is like this, then in the cities of other states, there are more people who want to squeeze into the city, although there are many cities in Taixia, but the proportion of people living outside the city is more, accounting for almost seventy or eighty percent of the population of Taixia.
Just when Zhang Tie was frowning slightly and thinking about something, in the inn in front of him, a shouting and scolding sounded, "You madman, what kind of pill pharmacist are you pretending to be, where is there a poor pill pharmacist in Taixia, you don't have money to live in any inn, get out of ...... for me"
As soon as the voice fell, a figure was thrown out of the door along with the bed cover. (To be continued......)
