After the Big Guy Wears the Abusive Text
Chapter 81: to please
She looked at Shili again, and saw Shili was also stunned, then got up, pulled Achi up from the bench, and looked at him carefully.
"Zhou Hong?" She said.
The ten miles that Achi saw before were all disguised, and now is the first time to see her true face, and she can't help but be even more stunned.
"Ten li..." He whispered, turned his head again, looked at Ci Ke, his lips moved.
He suddenly staggered and dragged his injured leg, strenuously walked to Ci Ke, stared at her for a long time, lifted her face tremblingly, opened his mouth but lost his words, unable to speak for a long time what words.
"Brother?" Ci Ke said again, her eyes were wide open, and she covered the back of Achi's scarred hand with her hands, as if she couldn't believe her own eyes, she blinked her eyes hard blinked.
Opening her eyes again, the man was still standing in front of her and never disappeared. Ci Ke was crying or laughing for a while, she hurriedly took Achi's hand away and looked down at his legs.
"I thought you were dead, how did you..." Ci Ke was incoherent, mixed with choking, she leaned over to check Achi's legs, but Achi hurriedly stopped her.
"Ci Ke, why is it you? It's you who was tied back to the cottage?" Achi was frightened for a while, and the water mist swirled in the pair of eyes that were similar to Cike, " Shouldn't you be in the capital now?"
If you look closely, you will find that his legs are constantly shaking.
Achi then supported himself to sit down slowly, Ye Youqing was surprised, but couldn't speak, and now hurriedly stepped forward and held Cike's arms, motioning for her to take a seat too.
"Ye Youqing." Cike suddenly pulled Ye Youqing backhand, "Am I dreaming?"
Without waiting for Ye Youqing to answer, she continued eagerly: "At that time, all the men of the Zhou family were conscripted into the army and sent to the frontier. Two years later, news came that the team encountered a rockfall outside the customs, and half of them were killed or injured. , my brother is in line here..."
"Brother." She trembled, as if she suddenly believed in this fact, took her hand from Ye Youqing's sleeve, and held Achi's hand.
Achi's hands were shaking like chaff, looking at his sister who had been away for a few years, lovingly wanted to touch her top, and timidly stopped in the air.
"The people who were sent to the frontier were tattooed back then. They were inferior. They were often beaten and bullied in the military camp. In a low voice, he moved his legs with difficulty and continued to speak, "In the later rockfall, I fell behind because I walked slowly and was never injured, so I took the opportunity to escape into the mountains and left the army."
"But because of this tattoo, I am not tolerated by the world, and I dare not go back to the capital, so I can only wander around, doing physical work on days when my legs are not too painful, and mix up He was wrapped in a belly. He never went out until he passed by this place two years ago and was taken into the ground."
A Chi said, pushing back the unkempt hair that covered his forehead, revealing that the color had faded a lot
"Thinking about it, it's been seven years..." He said sullenly.
Ci Ke, who was opposite him, was in tears when he heard his understatement, and covered his lips with the back of his hand, intertwined with joy, so complicated.
"Big brother!" After he finished speaking, he suddenly moved out of the bench and knelt down to Ye Youqing, "I didn't know that it was my own sister who was almost spoiled by those two kings, how stupid, If it wasn't for the help of my eldest brother, I would definitely regret it too much in the future, not regretting the beginning!"
"Such a favor, I..."
Ye Youqing didn't have time to stop him from kneeling down, and now he hastily stretched out his hand to drag the man up and put him back on the bench, holding it with sincerity and fear: "No, no, you have never spoken to Ke Ke. , why is the word stupid, not to mention that you have helped us in the underground, otherwise we may have to spend a while to come out."
"From now on, don't call me like that, just call me by my name." Ye Youqing added in a hurry.
"Why?" Achi, who is now Zhou Hong, is at a loss with tears.
Ye Youqing was at a loss for words and couldn't tell the truth, so he had to change the topic first, and said softly: "You and Cike have not seen each other for seven years, there must be a thousand words to say. I see this The meal has to be served later, so it’s better to move to the room and ask someone to pour some tea, it’s better to be gentle.”
The two were sent into the room, Ye Youqing and Shili quietly exited and stood outside the door, looking at each other for a while.
This matter is too bizarre, who would have thought that Achi would be Cike's brother, but now if you taste it carefully, you can think of that kind of inexplicable familiarity, Ye Youqing stood Under the sun, I can't help but sigh.
"I haven't seen him for seven years, his outline has changed a lot, and his face is mostly dirty. I only feel familiar, but I never dared to think that he is Zhou Hong." Shili said, and sighed. , "As the son of General Zhou, he has practiced martial arts since childhood, and he is also eye-catching in Bianjing. He is bold and motivated, and he should be a pillar."
Ye Youqing nodded, sat down again, and ate his stomach without knowing the taste.
As soon as I put down the bowls and chopsticks, I saw a person coming from the bottom of the mountain, bowing his head and saying to Ye Youqing: "Miss, Mr. Liu, please come over."
Ye Youqing got up when he heard the words, told Shili to take care of Ci Ke, so he got up and went with him.
The tangled messy hair has also been neatly taken care of, half black and half white tied in a bun on top of the head.
When he saw Ye Youqing, he smiled kindly and got up to greet him.
"Sit down, girl, did you rest well last night?"
"Liu is very polite." Ye Youqing sat down politely under the guidance of Ding Cheng, "I slept very well."
"This time I called the girl to come, because I found out what the girl said yesterday, where the ore has gone over the years." Liu Lao said, took a dirty and mottled booklet from the side, and handed it to Ye Yuqing, "This thing was obtained from several traitors who were in charge of affairs, and it is a record of the same direction of the output of these years."
Ye Youqing moved in her heart, picked up the paper with her fingertips, and carefully turned it over.
It was very quiet in the room, and a few people watched Ye Youqing's indifferent expression gradually showing a bit of turmoil, and her thin eyebrows couldn't help but come together, which made people inexplicable. Be wary.
"What did the girl see?" Mr. Liu also frowned with her and leaned forward to ask.
"How many people can Iron Cavalry use now?" Ye Youqing didn't answer directly, only said warmly.
"Excluding the traitors who were imprisoned, there were only three hundred and fifty-one people left. All the people in the first mine were captives, and the rest were scattered among the other three caves. I have never been treated badly by being deceived, so few people were injured." Ding Cheng answered loudly.
"No wonder the two kings are going to kidnap the people to work as coolies. At the price of these ores he sold cheaply, to feed this cottage, a very high output is required every year." Ye Youqing shook his head and said.
And according to Ye Youqing's knowledge, the people in the Qi Dynasty are now salt and iron officials, and people will never allow private smelting of iron. The government-run institutions are bloated, and the output is not much. More than half of them are used for military purposes. Therefore, the price of private iron is extremely high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to buy iron tools.
In such a situation, local tyrants who sell iron privately will be born. The price is much cheaper than that of the official business, and they can make a lot of money. In addition, the northern court is difficult to reach, so This is getting worse.
The iron ore sold by Tieqi over the years should have entered the hands of these tyrants.
Although the iron cavalry is well-trained and the tactics are cunning, but after all, there is no business sense, not to mention that the second king is sinister, but his brain is not very bright, so he only cares about mining a lot, and even never raises the price.
The only thing that has been done well is confidentiality. The transactions over the years have been as circuitous and flexible as wars, and have never revealed where the mines are located.
"Lao Liu, can you listen to me?" Ye Youqing looked at the booklet and said, her phoenix eyes raised slightly, "It is better to smelt iron and sell it by yourself instead of trading ore with these tycoons. , can earn much more money than today."
"And you don't have to pursue too high ore output, you can mine in shifts, after all, it is an iron cavalry, and the rest of the time can be practiced." Ye Youqing said seriously.
"Smelting iron?" Liu Lao was a little surprised when he heard the words, "But I have never tried it before, this..."
The language, but the tone is very certain, it seems to have a plan, which makes people want to believe it subconsciously.
Lao Liu thought for a while, and finally nodded: "I'm not as thoughtful as the girl, since the girl opens her mouth, just listen to the girl."
Ye Yuqing smiled, and after a few words with him, she got up and left.
The master's descendant, but she is a girl's family after all, in case..."
Lao Liu glanced at him, and Ding Cheng was silent.
"How about a girl's family, when you and I were as old as you, I wouldn't have the courage to join a cottage full of gangsters alone." Mr. Liu shook his head, "What's more, even though she is young , but the mind is mature and the words are right, how can you be as knowledgeable as she is."
Ding Cheng blushed with shame.
"If she can really help me wait, it will prove that she is indeed the qualified descendant that King Sirong said back then, and can command the iron cavalry, then I will feel at ease when I die." .
Ding Cheng listened.
"Forget it, now I finally see the sun, help me out to get some sunshine." Mr. Liu said with joy, got up with the back of his chair, and swayed out comfortably.
At the same time, under the scorching sun, Ye Youqing quickly ran back to the middle of the mountain, where Shili was still sitting in the shade, frowning and eating a pot of cold melon.
"They haven't come out yet?" Ye Youqing listened anxiously to the movement inside the door.
"Never, but don't worry, the crying has stopped." Shili said, handing half of the cold melon to Ye Youqing, "Eat some, go to the fire."
Ye Youqing hurriedly shook her head and refused, pacing outside the door.
Walking, she suddenly remembered something, raised her legs and sat beside Shili, tilted her head and asked in a low voice: "Zhou Hong's leg, is there any cure?"
Thirdly revealed complexities, and said softly: "His leg was not completely broken, and then healed a little by himself, just because he has never been treated, and now he is deformed and has repeated attacks. Although it can’t return to normal, at least it won’t be tortured by pain anymore.”
Ye Youqing nodded, passed through the door uncomfortably, and looked into the void: "Tomorrow I plan to go back to Weizhou, Ma Xiao worked as a blacksmith, I want to ask her something."
"By the way, find a serious doctor for Zhou Hong, take a good look at his legs, if it can be cured, it will be better."
"Since he is Cike's brother, you should be more courteous."
