Portable Space: Small Peasant Girls Farm to Get Rich

Chapter 237 This matter is still unknown

The sky is getting bright and the birds are flying.

Jiang Dafu, the head of Shihe Village, kept stretching his head and looking in the direction of hundreds of private schools at the entrance of the village.

In Baijia Private School, Liu Qingcao arrived at the medicine storehouse early in the morning. She put a lot of porcelain bottles of medicine packages into wooden boxes and bags. Amidst the sound of students reading aloud in the morning, she drove the ox cart to the entrance of the village. Go.

At the entrance of the village, Jiang Dafu saw the shadow of Liu Qingcao's oxcart and waved to Liu Qingcao. Liu Qingcao was afraid that he would keep waving the paper, so she quickly waved to him in response.

"Qingcao, have you had breakfast?" Jiang Dafu saw the ox cart approaching and took two steps forward.

"Have you eaten? Brother Jiang, where are you?" Liu Qingcao nodded and glanced at the baskets beside Jiang Dafu.

"Have eaten, Qingcao, let's go." Jiang Dafu carefully lifted the basket on the ground onto the oxcart, while he sat in the corner, far away from Liu Qingcao's things.

The bullock cart was walking leisurely on the dirt road, and there was a small pit. The bullock cart shook violently, and Jiang Dafu almost fell off the cart.

During the journey ahead, Jiang Dafu was afraid that the eggs in the basket would break and Liu Qingcao's things would shift, so he used his hands and feet to hold everything in the car against it to reduce the shaking.

"Qingcao, we're in town, do you want to go to the county seat first?" Jiang Dafu asked without raising his head.

"I'll wait for you to hand over the eggs to Ruyilou, and we'll go together." Liu Qingcao didn't even look back, looking at the road, trying to drive the cattle to a flat area.

"Okay." Jiang Dafu nodded and said nothing.

All the way to Qianfeng Town, Liu Qingcao parked the oxcart at the back door of Ruyi Building, asked Lin Er to collect the eggs, and then rushed to Xinxian County with Jiang Dafu.

Some time ago, Liu Qingcao received a letter from Pan Yong, saying that after Gou Xingwan died suddenly, the court ordered a thorough investigation, and finally found out that it was a concubine in his backyard who couldn't stand Gou Xingwan's inhuman torture and poisoned him to death. suicide.

In the past half month, there has been no county magistrate in Xinxian County. Although there were complaints from the people, there were not many.

Pan Yong's letter also mentioned that the new county magistrate would arrive in the new county in seven days. Pan Yong did not find out what kind of official this person was, so Liu Qingcao had to make such a trip despite his busy schedule.

Today was the time when the new county magistrate came to Xin County to take up his post. She hoped to have a chance encounter with this magistrate.

When the oxcart was on its way to Xinxian County, it was already after lunch. The sun was blazing right now, and people were walking on the road without shelter. The tantalizing heat of the sun made people's scalp numb.

The light breeze carries the heat wave, hitting people's faces and getting into thin clothes, making people irritable and unbearable.

The cow pulled the carriage, its tail hanging motionless, and the entire journey became slower and slower.

"Brother Jiang, let's find a shady place to rest for a while." Liu Qingcao couldn't bear to continue on the road, so she suggested to stop and rest.

"Okay." Jiang Dafu looked at Liu Qingcao, who was sweating, and nodded in agreement.

He is a man and works under the scorching sun every day. Although the sun feels uncomfortable, he can still bear it. Liu Qingcao is a girl, so her body is naturally not comparable to his.

When the oxcart traveled ten kilometers outside Xinxian County, Liu Qingcao stopped the oxcart in a shady place. After giving Jiang Dafu the food she had prepared in advance, she got off the cart with water.

The cow smelled the familiar smell, opened its big round eyes, and waited obediently for Liu Qingcao to feed.

"Drink more, you have worked hard today." Liu Qingcao touched the cow's head and comforted it.

It's hot in summer, so Liu Qingcao has adjusted the county delivery time to Shenshi, so they rarely go on the road during the hottest time. Today, there are no carriages to rent in Qianfeng Town, so they choose to use ox carts.

"Qingcao, you are really the benefactor of all the villagers in Shihe Village."

Jiang Dafu finished the meat pie in his hand, looked at Liu Qingcao seriously, and spoke solemnly.

Liu Qingcao turned her head, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, she raised her head and smiled:

"It's all mutual, not helping."

"Qingcao, don't worry, but everyone knows in their hearts that if there is need in the future, Shihe Village will go out of its way to help you." Jiang Dafu looked serious and spoke every word with gratitude in his eyes.Liu Qingcao shook his head and said, "Brother Jiang, you are serious."

Liu Qingcao did this just because they were worth it. If they were not worth it, she would not bother to put in the effort. As for her goal, that is, they would still be kind.

……

The bullock cart took two hours and finally arrived at the gate of the new county town just before dark. The two city guards collected the entry fee and let them go.

Liu Qingcao asked for two guest rooms at the inn. After putting things in the room, Jiang Dafu drove the cattle to the storage area.

After a while, Jiang Dafu came back, accompanied by Pan Yong and a woman wearing a veil.

"Girl." Pan Yong said with a smile.

"Girl." The woman's voice was like the cry of cuckoos in the early morning, like clear rain and hazy mist, clear and soft, both royal and delicate. Even through the white gauze mask, Liu Qingcao could still vaguely see her gorgeous appearance.

Liu Qingcao nodded without taking his eyes away from her. Pan Yong understood Liu Qingcao's meaning and spoke again before she asked, "Girl, this is the woman I mentioned in my letter, Yinque. "

Yinque?

Nice name.

"Yinque has seen the girl." The woman took off her mask and bowed slightly towards Liu Qingcao.

Liu Qingcao looked at the person who took off the veil and was surprised for a moment.

To be honest, Liu Qingcao felt that the beauties in her hands were enough to hold a brothel.

"Everyone, please sit down. It hurts my neck if you stand." Liu Qingcao turned sideways and stood up to get a baggage before they could sit down.

The bag was opened, and the contents inside were revealed to everyone.

"Girl, so many?" Pan Yong looked at the porcelain bottle of medicine package on the cloth. After being stunned for three seconds, Pan Yong said in surprise.

Jiang Dafu's eyes shifted from the table to the wooden box beside the bed. He knew that Liu Qingcao brought a lot, but he didn't expect that there would be so many. He was really afraid that the wooden box would be full.

"It's quite a lot, but not much." Liu Qingcao lowered his eyes and smiled, opening a porcelain bottle, and instantly a strong medicinal fragrance hit his nostrils, making the three people present feel physically and mentally relaxed.

Yinque looked at the thing in Liu Qingcao's hand, with longing in his eyes, only for that moment, and then returned to calm.

"What do you mean, girl?" Pan Yong asked, not understanding the meaning of Liu Qingcao's words.

"The imperial court taxes taxes in advance and increases them by [-]%. I think what you mentioned in your letter is not far away." Liu Qingcao narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly.

Jiang Dafu looked confused, not knowing what Liu Qingcao meant, but he could clearly feel that the matter Liu Qingcao said was not trivial.

"Girl, what about the war?" Yinque said softly.

Liu Qingcao glanced at her face and nodded.

This matter is not a secret, but anyone who cares a little about court affairs will have some guesses about it.

"I know a little about this matter. I heard that the emperor is going to send General Jingyong to the North to take charge of the Northern Territory and lead a hundred thousand Northern troops to attack the Beidi Youzu. It is not yet known when exactly." Yinque said without reservation what he knew. Speak up.

After hearing this, Liu Qingcao pondered for a moment, looked at Pan Yong, and said eagerly:
"Brother Pan, you go to our clothing store right away to get thirty sets of ready-made clothes, and then pack up all your people. I will go to the ruined temple to find you tomorrow morning."

"Yes, girl." Pan Yong finished his words and immediately walked away.

Yinque looked at Pan Yong who was leaving, then at Liu Qingcao, and finally stood there quietly.
