Poor family mother and son

Chapter 155 Seeing King Guli for the First Time

Chu Qing bought mink, falcon, deer antlers and whips, tiger skins, and bird feathers. With the money in the villagers' hands, Chu Qing also bought all their mink furs.

They have the money, now let's solve the cotton problem.

"I've seen the cotton in your field, and it's full of bugs," Chu Qing said.

"Yes, there are a lot of bugs every year, so we can't harvest much cotton." Amu Dong said.

"I have a way to help you get rid of the insects. Can you grow some cotton and sell it to me?"

"Really?!" The voice came from several villagers at the same time.

From the second day on, Chu Qing took them to the cotton field to see those bugs.In fact, there is no need for Chu Qing to teach, the boys will be taught to understand.

The firewood burned by the villagers is the branches of Populus euphratica. Soak one part of firewood ash and five parts of water for a whole day and night, and then sprinkle it on the cotton seedlings; Bugs are caught.

These are the things that Daxuan's farm children often do, but the country of Voss is not an agricultural country, so they don't have such experience.

Make use of women and children. The women here are not as busy as the women in Daxuan. They even go hunting on horseback like men.

The whole family is mobilized to divide the work. Even though they are a nation that lives by water and grass, they can still grow cotton fields well and live a good life.

Chu Qing didn't realize that she was changing the living habits of the local people, and she was using money to lure them from fishing to agriculture.

However, who doesn't want to have a rich life?If there is a chance to be better, then change.

"Do you want to dig the ground?" The villagers were curious.

The boys are at a loss for words.Is it okay not to overturn the ground?

This shows that the farming nation is different from other nations.Their land is really barren and not suitable for the growth of crops, so agriculture cannot be developed.

But there are good light conditions and high enough temperature here, so cotton is suitable for them to grow here.

Chu Qing made an agreement with them to exchange cotton with them in two months, and would bring all the soybean oil and iron pots they needed.

In the following days, Chu Qing put the received furs and other goods into the 50-two convoys of silk and tea bricks, and asked them to go to the territory of the Voss royal family and the territory of Virat respectively.

And she hired a local camel caravan to walk around the Tuhuerte Basin, all the places where cotton is grown, and taught them how to remove insects, fertilize, and turn the soil.He also asked them to collect the cotton and transport it to Amudong, where he would buy it.

The boys from Secret Service have mapped out the whole basin.Chu Qing felt that the trip was complete, and when she was about to start harvesting cotton, trouble arose.

The leader of Tuhuerte—Guli King Pazhuo led people to surround Chu Qing's convoy.

"Who are you?" A guard who looked like a leader yelled.

"Who are you?" Chu Yuan asked back the same words.

Chu Yuan roughly guessed in his heart that the caravan might have alarmed the lord of Tuhuerte, but he was not sure what level of person came.

Chu Qing and Chu Yuan guessed about the same, but they were anxious about Chu Yuan's way of speaking.No matter who comes, we are now in other people's territory, so we have to restrain ourselves.Alas, Lao Yu and Zhao are not around, and there is no one to follow calmly, it is impossible.

"You are presumptuous!" Sure enough, he was unhappy, and the guards around put their knives on Chu Yuan's neck when he said "presumptuous".

Chu Qing cleared his throat, and stepped forward: "My younger brother doesn't know the rules, sir, please don't blame us, we are businessmen from Daxuan, and I am Bao Qingsheng's boss."

"Bao Qingsheng? I've never heard of it! What on earth are you here for?" The head of the guard saw that she was just a woman who claimed to be the "employee" in front of him. The knives were all removed.But the expression and tone of the question were full of disdain and doubt.

"It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it. Haven't you heard of it now? We will have more exchanges in the future." Chu Yuan said.He really couldn't understand this guy's expression when he was talking to Chu Qing.

"Since our establishment, Baoqingsheng has been the largest grain merchant in Xinlunzhou Mutual Market, and is currently the largest warehouse in Xinlunzhou. If you haven't heard of it, it can only mean that the people in Guibao have enough food and clothing and don't need to buy grain." Chu Qing Match Chu Yuan's tone, otherwise Chu Yuan will have a knife on his neck again.

The surrounding villagers were silent and did not dare to look this way.They knew King Guli's chariot, only Chu Qing didn't know them.

Chu Qing took a glance at the group of "officers and soldiers", and to tell the truth, he really couldn't tell they were "officers and soldiers".They are inferior to the caravan guards of Daxuan Kingdom.There is no unified weapon, uniform clothing, and the formation is loose.

But the aura exuded by these people made Chu Qing dare not underestimate them.It feels like being caught in a pack of wolves. What she is facing is not an army, but a herd of beasts, which is even more deadly.

Zhuo Yao kept blocking Xiao Bao with his body.Women and children have always been the most "drag" on the team. They are the most likely to be taken as hostages or captured. He can't be careless.

What Chu Qing said seemed to irritate the head of the guard a little bit, because there was a food shortage in the country of Voss at the beginning of the year, and indeed many people went to Xinlun State to grab food, including Tu Huerte.

When the head of the guards was about to become angry, Xiao Bao broke away from Zhuo Yao's hand behind his back, and flashed out and said, "The first time is raw, the second time is acquaintance. Let's come a few more times, and you will get to know each other!"

The childish expression on the child's face and the crisp words made the boss's face look better.

As soon as his expression eased, Xiaobao asked: "Is your adult also here to buy food?" Xiaobao pointed to the carriage not far away while asking.

Chu Qing also looked over there.I felt a little disdainful: You people on horseback don’t show off your might on horseback, but you actually ride in a carriage. The carriage is so nondescript and the craftsmanship is not good!There are few trees, so we shouldn't waste wood like this!
"What food to buy!" The guard leader was really depressed.These people are much more annoying than Donglun people.Donglun people never dared to do this when they saw them.Even a child dares to talk indiscriminately.

"Oh, it's not for buying grain, so this is...?" Xiaobao asked.Sure enough, Xiaobao went out, and one was worth two.

"It doesn't matter whether you buy it or not. My mother often said that looking back five hundred times in the previous life is only in exchange for one encounter in this life. It is fate that we met today. Ask your lord, do you want to come down for a drink?" Xiao Bao stretched out his small hand behind his back, holding a wine bottle.

Unplug the plug, the aroma of burning corn overflows.Chu Qing quickly suppressed the corner of her mouth that was about to twitch: that's for disinfection!

The "adult" in the carriage seemed unable to sit still, only heard the sound of clearing his throat in the carriage, then the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a fat man with a big belly came down.

The onlookers, who dared not make a sound, knelt down and worshiped, without daring to raise their heads.

Chu Qing was curious, who the hell is here?

I saw that the fat man was wearing a four-legged cap embroidered with maroon gold thread, and a luxurious red double-faced gown with human, animal and tree patterns on the ground, with a light yellow silk gown inside, a silk belt around his waist, and a sachet hanging from it. Silk fish and other small objects.

The tail ends of the two mustaches under the nose are curved into a curly arc, and the butter is firmly glued to the upper corner of the mouth.

The fat red man brushed his hands on the big belly melon, his fat fingers were really as thick as a small carrot.He wobbled to stand in front of Chu Qing: "You..."
