Back Off, Let Me Come
Chapter 1327: Mingxiu Plank Road (Part 1) [Seeking monthly votes]
"B-Borrow the eye, father-in-law...it has become a spirit!"
The cook had been so frightened that her face turned pale. When she heard the chaotic footsteps approaching, she almost crawled out the door on her hands and knees. She was so weak that she leaned on Shen Tang's legs. Only then did her rapidly beating heart become more stable. The servants who were working in the kitchen were so frightened that they huddled in every corner. Only two sturdy servants in the room dared to stand in front of the water tank. Seeing Shen Tang and others was like seeing a savior.
It is said that the jellyfish that turned into sperm also looked panicked when soaked in the water.
Who knows, I almost fell into the pot when I woke up.
When Shen Tang arrived, the jellyfish spirit was still trying to appease the panicked crowd, almost tongue-tied in its anxiety: "Sister, don't panic, we, we are not some bastards, this is a misunderstanding. Everything is... Misunderstanding, I have something important to do, so please allow me to keep my clothes on, as this is a great kindness that I will never forget!
That's why he didn't climb out of the tank.
She was completely naked, not even an inch of hair on her body.
In the East Kitchen, except for three or four men who do manual labor, the rest are rough servants. He didn't want to make enemies with his master, so he couldn't just jump out and show off his butt. After all, he is a brave man. As long as he can find a reasonable excuse, the owner of the family will not make things difficult for him. He didn't want any more troubles, so he squatted in the water tank to show his goodwill.
Shen Tang said: "Come here, get one for him."
Evacuate the frightened people, and then order people to guard the chef to prevent him from escaping. When the jellyfish saw the clothes thrown over, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly put them on. With his sharp eyes and ears, he also heard his master complaining to others outside.
The other party's voice rose a few degrees.
"What a smooth and thick jellyfish, it was clearly transformed by a brave warrior. Everything can be faked these days! Find the person who supplied the ingredients today and find out if this jellyfish essence was deliberately sneaked in? No, it’s for free?”
Hearing that the jellyfish essence was a free gift from the merchant, the anger level in the host's voice dropped significantly. The tall, white and fat cook explained nervously with a soft and waxy voice that did not match her body shape: "Yes, it's the little one who saw the fish." If you have the goods, you can just take care of Lao Zhangtou. My lord, this matter should have nothing to do with Lao Zhangtou and the others. "
Lao Zhangtou supplies fish to the government, and 70 to 80 percent of the fish from several nearby villages is supplied here. If they lose their supply qualification because of this incident, how many people's livelihoods will be affected?
Dongchu is responsible for the supply in the government office canteen. There are four meals a day with unlimited meat and vegetables, and the ingredients are required to be the freshest. A large amount of ingredients are consumed every day, and purchasing naturally becomes a big problem. However, Shen Tang did not let anyone take charge of this matter alone. Instead, he directly released the news and let the vendors compete on their own. Those who stand out will be qualified to provide stable supplies to the government. Yamen supplies food.
The price offered by the government is lower than the market price, which lowers the overall profit. Logically speaking, not many merchants want to do it, but they can't handle the high consumption of government offices and the quick settlement. The fish caught in those fishing villages have no worries about marketability, let alone the problem of backlog and stinking.
Regardless of the unit price, the profit is small, but the loss is low.
After conversion, profits do not fall but increase.
The cook's husband's family is also in this village, so he doesn't dare to become a sinner.
She stood up and explained the whole story with an embarrassed expression. It was she who saw an eye-catching fish among the fish sent by Lao Zhangtou - the gelatin was thick and the umbrella surface was smooth, perfect for making a pot of soup - so she asked Lao Zhangtou to add this one to the purchase list.
Lao Zhangtou gave it away as a gift without saying anything.
Since the Lord came to power, the life of the villagers has become much better. The villagers go out to work and fish every day without worrying about sales, and the farm crops in the village have a stable future. Not only their village, but also the fellow villagers in Linjun County are living a better life.
Everyone is grateful for the Lord's good deeds, so how can he dare to accept money?
He just gave it away for free.
Speaking of which, it is rare to find jellyfish here.
It's still such a big jellyfish!
It’s as big as a water tank!
Shen Tang cross-examined carefully and found that everyone's testimonies were consistent. Was this really an accident? She was a little disappointed: "I thought that finally a martial artist discovered the magical power of the martial arts totem and knew that he could use it to blackmail people... I am happy for nothing."
Xia Houyu was almost speechless.
"How can blackmailing people be a good thing worth being happy about?"
Shen Tang eloquently promoted: "This shows that the world is so peaceful that martial arts warriors no longer focus on martial arts, and begin to develop other magical uses of martial courage totems. Although it is a heresy such as blackmailing people, it is also an inevitable result of social evolution."
Xia Houyu didn't know what he thought of, so he smiled.
"My lord, these words are a warning to the emperor. In the future, the common people must beware of those animals that can speak human words." Not everyone knows about brave warriors and literary scholars. In some remote areas, they only exist with words. In the stories passed down, not to mention the living people turned into totems of martial courage. If there is a treacherous person who relies on this scam, it is really hard to guard against.
The colleague said: "It's too early to worry about these things now."
For a martial artist who has cultivated the martial arts totem, why wouldn't he have a better future than being a liar walking the streets? It's not like a group of colleagues were involved in voluntarily working overtime. They really didn't care about the bottom line at all.
Some colleagues regretted: "I heard today that there is fresh meat and jellyfish soup in the kitchen. I have been looking forward to it for a long time, but in the end I was overjoyed."
Shen Tang knows how to make people willing to work overtime.
Including but not limited to food that tastes better than at home.
At first, no one noticed Shen Tang's sinister intentions, until the women in each household found that the men in their families were coming home later and later. At first, everyone thought that the men had raised children outside, but they went to the government office to inquire and found out that they were actually working overtime.
"You stayed until now for this pot of soup?"
"How could it be? Of course it's for the great cause of the master for thousands of years." Then he said with regret, "What a pity for this pot of fresh meat and jellyfish soup."
The jellyfish spirit himself: "..."
Is it because his martial gall totem looks too delicious?
Because the east kitchen was surrounded by people, the probability of him breaking through and escaping was not high, so the jellyfish spirit gave up this option.
He opened the door and bowed to the master of this house, thanking him for saving his life - ignoring the fact that he almost fell into the pot, it can indeed be called "life-saving grace". The young master said that people on the shore like to be flattered and praised.
Don't hit a smiling person.
Shen Tang said, "What are your origins?"
The jellyfish spirit lied half-truthfully: "My master and I were born on a remote island. We have been fishing for generations. The island is barren. This time we are also looking for a boss who can place stable orders for our fellow villagers, so that we can exchange goods for supplies for our fellow villagers."
"Island? Do you know where this place is?"
From the coast to here, the fish caught have long been rotten.
The jellyfish spirit said slowly: "My benefactor, you don't know, we also have warriors who know how to freeze. A ship of seafood can be frozen and preserved. Whatever is caught, it will be frozen and delivered. There are few seafood in the inland, and the young master thinks there are many business opportunities here."
"A merchant? Then how did you get so badly injured?"
If you were not seriously injured, how could you be accidentally salvaged?
And in the form of a martial totem?
This proves that the other party had been hunted down and killed, and survived a narrow escape. This is not something that a merchant can explain.
The jellyfish said, "It was a feud."
The content of the feud was not disclosed.
Shen Tang nodded, "So it was a personal grudge."
Whether or not she believed the jellyfish's words, only she knew. The jellyfish didn't expect Shen Tang to believe it. As long as the other party was willing to let him go, he would find a chance to get away. At this time, Shen Tang changed the subject and asked about the types of seafood, supply prices, and supply quantities of his family's business... If the price is right, she can order a batch and will definitely not default on the payment.
Marine aquatic products have fewer parasites than freshwater aquatic products.
If I stay in the southwest, I can still taste it. If I stay in this place, I can only synchronize my memory to scratch the itch.
"... I will tell the young master about this."
As he spoke, the jellyfish felt that this was a good business. The tribesmen on the islands have no land to make a living on land, and food and expenses are a huge amount. They can't all rely on the general's salary and rewards, right? They can indeed go out to sea to fish, freeze the fish and sell them to these people inland. They are all fresh seafood, so the price cannot be low! The most important thing is that this is an exclusive business!
The jellyfish spirit was stunned and drew a beautiful blueprint in an instant.
Shen Tang asked the jellyfish spirit to leave a contact address and let him go.
The address was made up by the jellyfish spirit.
Shen Tang threw it aside without even looking at it: "Send someone to follow."
Xiahou Yu bowed his hands and accepted the order: "Yes."
The jellyfish spirit has some cultivation, but he was seriously injured and had not recovered. He had not eaten for several days and had experienced the shock of almost cooking soup. Both his physical strength and spirit had reached the limit. He didn't even notice that there was a little tail following him.
He didn't find the tracking, but he was cautious enough.
He found a house to stay temporarily with the money funded by Shen Tang.
He secretly inquired about this place and was overjoyed!
It was only half a day's walk away from his destination!
He asked the farmer for the address of the destination, and only after he got it clear did he rest assured and rest for half a day. When he went out, he did not forget to do various small moves to try to get rid of the secret surveillance. However, he followed the address given by the farmer, and the more he walked, the more familiar he felt.
The disguised jellyfish spirit stood in front of the government office.
He came out from the corner gate yesterday.
The corner gate was only a hundred steps away from him.
The person who secretly followed the jellyfish spirit: "???"
Watching the jellyfish spirit sneaking towards the government office, when Shen Tang met him, both sides were a little embarrassed, and the latter stammered and clasped his fists: "General Luo's account, meet the master."
Shen Tang: "People under Luo Shenlu's account?"
The jellyfish spirit nodded: "Yes."
Shen Tang: "..."
Xiahou Yu and others happened to be there, and they also smelled the awkward atmosphere in the air. After all, the scene of yesterday was still vivid in his mind. The jellyfish tried to hide himself, but when he turned around, he found that his master was close at hand. He was just being too smart...
"Who is Luo Shenlu?"
"The biography of famous officials and famous scholars does not include his name."
No one in the market has heard of this person.
"It's normal that you haven't heard of him. Shenlu joined when the southwest battlefield was about to end. He was born on an isolated island overseas. He is also a descendant of a general. His temper is also first-class among the generals." Shen Tang responded to everyone first, and then turned his head to care about the jellyfish's experience. "Didn't Shenlu escort Lingde to the Kingdom of Qu? What happened to you? Why are you so seriously injured? Could it be that Zhai Xiaofang turned against him at this time, and the situation in the Kingdom of Qu changed?"
The jellyfish confirmed his identity, and then used his fingers to cut open his belly, and picked out a secret letter from it and presented it to him: "The general ordered the letter to be sent secretly, and was ambushed on the way. Judging from his kung fu, the person who ambushed him is definitely not a gangster."
Ordinary rangers may pursue flashy, elegant, elegant and moving moves, while warriors with military backgrounds may value ultimate cost-effectiveness and kill with one hit. Although his pursuers were disguised as rangers, their tricks could not deceive anyone.
That is to say——
The pursuit is inseparable from Qu Wangwang's court.
Shen Tang read the secret letter with a calm expression.
The luck in her palm blew up the secret letter into dust: "You stay here to recuperate, and I will find a way to reply to Shen Lu. Zhai Xiaofang will not let him go easily, but he will not harm Lingde and the others either."
The jellyfish spirit put the hanging heart back to its original place.
Shen Tang did not hide it and informed Xia Houyu and others about the matter.
Only then did everyone realize that Zhai Le still had this trump card.
"Twenty-year-old Chehou..."
For most people, it only exists in legends.
How else to talk about Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Mainland China?
"...Although there is an accident, it is also expected. Qu State annexed the southeastern countries, and there is nothing he can do..." What is really scary is that the 20th-level Chehou has never shown up, and Zhai Xiaofang has also hidden his strength , Qu Guo can still come this far.
Before, Xia Houyu might have been worried about who would win.
After sorting out my cards, my anxiety disappeared.
Kang Guo also has a lot of trump cards.
It's just that there are less than twenty Chehou Hou to help out.
Just hit it, maybe it will happen in the future.
Gu De was worried about another thing: "Zhai Xiaofang dares to send people to intercept the message now, and he will also arrest people later. If the Marquis Che takes action, it will not be easy for Lin Nujun and others to escape safely."
The people of Kang State are too far away, and the water far away cannot save the fire nearby.
Xia Houyu said: "Perhaps we can bring in reinforcements."
"Move reinforcements? Who else can we ask for reinforcements now?" Shen Tang had already acted as a backup, but he became a little more interested after hearing Xia Houyu's words. Xiahou Yu and Gu De had a vast network of contacts, and the people they attracted extended their networks.
Shen Tang still doesn't know how many friends they have.
Xia Houyu said: "It depends on the performance in the next battle."
Shen Tang: "The next battle?"
Suginaga County is her next target.
Taking this place can break down the barriers between various places and connect all Shen Tang's territories in the central part of the country. Shanyong County was not captured, and it was quite troublesome for Shen Tang to support each other in the territory in his hands. Fortunately, she has special means of supplying grain and grass, otherwise the cost of transporting grain would be three to four times higher than the normal route. This cost is simply not something that a warlord with a weak footing can afford...
According to Xia Houyu, the reinforcements are in Shanyong County?
Xiahou Yu said: "Captain of Shanyong County."
"But isn't that person's strength only level 11?"
This strength cannot be used as a reinforcement.

Speaking of which, doing business in frozen seafood is indeed a good idea.
