Chapter 163 II 28. Find Your Way Out
Tong Bat said earnestly: "Argh, remember, our friendship was formed in the midst of weal and woe, and it is indestructible. You can go to Zheng Yuansheng, and you can do anything. I will work hard to stand up and be your backer."

"Wow? I also have a backer? Brother Tong, you have to cheer up and work harder. I will open a very large sword shop in the future. My scissors are sold in the northwest and northeast. I also hope that you can make A career, when I run into trouble selling scissors, I hope you will support me!" Tian Erya half-joked.

"I will be your strongest backer, and I will not let others bully you." Tong Bat nodded solemnly. Now he is not alone, and bears the responsibility of Tian Erya to find her husband.Erya was not in the court, so she didn't know that only those who could speak well in front of the emperor could help Zheng Yuansheng escape from being a prisoner.He looked at Erya's character and knew that even if Zheng Yuansheng was a sin slave for the rest of his life, she would follow her.Tong Bat would never allow such a thing to happen.

Seeing that he was so serious, Tian Erya couldn't make fun of him, so she told him to drink less.

"I've quit drinking." Tong Bat also explained to the leader of the caravan, and then let Tian Erya go with them at ease.

The documents and the sentries followed Tong Bat to bid farewell to Tian Erya and Li Hu.They saw that Tong Bat was still standing there watching, and waited until he disappeared.

Tong Bat turned around: "Let's go to the county government office now and discuss with the county magistrate how to get rid of the horse thieves nearby?"

"Huh?" The document was stunned.There are many horse thieves on the grassland and they are very rampant.The stationed Karen sentries and the county government servants basically consciously kept their distance from the horse thieves. Even if they received orders to suppress the bandits, they were mostly thunderous and rainy but not implemented.I didn't expect Tongbat to want to suppress the bandits now with his determination on his face. Could it be that he changed his laziness in the past and really wanted to do something?
Tongbat got on his horse and went straight to the county government.If you want your superiors to see that you still have the ability, you must do something earth-shattering.He wants to risk his life to fight, strive to rise up, stand in a high position, and help Tian Erya.

On Tian Erya's way to Ninggu Pagoda, although there were several snowstorms, the caravan was well prepared and the leader was experienced. They stopped and went, and set up a thick tent at night, so they didn't have to worry about food, clothing and travel.This way, she was extremely relaxed.

When Ning Guta was near, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

Li Hu said goodbye to the caravan and led Tian Erya to the barracks.

Tian Erya looked at those soldiers walking in pairs with sabers in their hands. The formation was neat and intimidating, and she couldn't help but be solemn.

Li Hu warned: "Ah, the army has distinct ranks and strict management. I'll go see Tong Xieling first, and you can only enter when someone takes you in. Don't rush in."

"Yes."

Li Hu tidied up his clothes and marched into the barracks with his head held high, begging to see Tong Bak.

Tong Bak was sitting behind the desk, his rough face was not angry and pretentious.He sullenly said, "Tong Bat specially asked you to come here to find me?"

Li Hu lowered his eyebrows and looked down: "Back to the young master, it was the young master who asked me to..."

"This is the army. There is no young master. Call me Tong Xieling."

"Yes, Tong Xieling. Master Tongbaite wrote you a letter specially, and told me again and again that he must bring the letter himself and ask you to take care of him..."

"Crack!" Tong Ba Ke slapped the table, "Tong Ba Te was demoted to be Karen's manager. He has no rank, no shame, no desire to make progress, and dares to make all kinds of moths. Do you believe it?"

Li Hu was terrified, and handed over the envelope respectfully: "Here."

Tong Bak took it, tore it up a few times, and threw it into the brazier.

Li Hu opened his mouth wide in surprise: "My lord..."

"Shut up, did my lord order you to speak up? You have been with Tongbat for a long time, and you don't understand the rules at all. Someone will pull him down and beat him twenty times. After the punishment, he will be incorporated into the infantry battalion."

Li Hu was unwilling to be dragged away without fulfilling Tong Bart's order, and shouted: "Tong Xieling, your brother has a very important friend who needs you to take care of him. His friend is right outside the door..."

"Drive his friends away from the barracks for ten miles. Here, I have to rely on my ability and ability to do things, and there are no relatives and nepotism!" Tong Xie leader flicked his sleeves and went to the inside.

Li Hu was dragged down and beaten, worried that Tian Erya would have nowhere to stay.However, he was thrown directly into the infantry battalion after being beaten.Tong Bak also sent someone to watch him and not allow him to go out to report.He could only pray in his heart that Tian Erya would take care of himself.

Tian Erya didn't wait outside the barracks until someone invited him in, instead, he was driven ten miles away.Begging: "Several military lords, where is the person who came with me just now? What happened?"

"The co-leader has an order to keep him in the barracks and not to meet you."

Tian Erya understood that the relationship between Tongbat and his brother was not as good as Tongbat thought.If others don't help her, she can only find her own way out.She saw some houses along the way, so she went to find a place to stay.

The waiter at the inn greeted her: "Guest officer, come in to stay? We are very cheap, 200 Wen a night."

Tian Erya shook her head again and again: "I'm here to look for a job, may I ask if you're hiring?"

"No, let's go."

Tian Erya asked several companies in a row, but was kicked out, and simply yelled at the side of the street: "Sell scissors, scissors with sharp blades, good scissors that can cut felt cloth..."

An old man came over and looked at her scissors: "How much is a pair?"

"Sixty Wen." Tian Erya thought that she had memorized it all the way, and with the travel expenses included, selling 60 Wen should not be too expensive.

"Here are two." The old man picked out two pairs of scissors, put down the money and walked away quickly, as if he was about to be caught begging for money, and slipped away in time.

Tian Erya sold a few more, very happy.

Suddenly, a tall and strong man picked up her bamboo basket and threw it on the ground: "Are you here to lower the price, disturb the market, and let others do business?"

Tian Erya hurriedly picked up the scissors: "Brother, what are you talking about? We each do our own business, why do you throw away my things?"

"You lower prices indiscriminately and suppress your peers, our blacksmith business will not tolerate you."

"What price reduction? I sell a pair of scissors for sixty yuan, which is not cheap."

The big man sneered: "Are you playing dumb for me? A pair of scissors must sell for at least ninety yuan."

"Ninety coins?" Tian Erya's eyes widened: "Are you kidding me? Normally, this kind of scissors only sell for fifty coins at most."

The big man looked at her: "New here from another place?"

"Yes."

"How many scissors do you have?"

Tian Erya counted: "There are 15 left."

The big man's eyes were provocative: "Fifty coins, I want them all, will you sell them?"

"Sell." Tian Erya picked up the scissors and put them all on the ground in front of him.

The man picked up the bamboo basket and put all the scissors in, picked up the bamboo basket and left.

"Brother, you haven't paid me yet!"

"You still dare to ask me for money?" The man glared.
