Chapter 318

When we arrived at Meng Su's and Du Ming's cottage, it was autumn and golden.

The total amount of silver brought back from the demon sect was 5 million Liang. Ling Qingyu wanted to take half of it as a reward, but Meng Su directly put a reward and punishment regulation in front of and behind him, and became mute.

This time, if the reward is given based on merit, it should be Yang Zhao, Meng Su and Du Ming. Yang Zhao naturally put himself away with a smile. Meng Su and Du Ming should each get 50000 liang of the first merit reward. Meng Su said that the master should keep it for me, and directly pushed the silver in front of Ling Qingyu, so that Yang Zhao stared at him for several times.

After leaving Yang Zhao and Meng Su Duming to discuss the details, Ling Qingyu slowly walked out of the lobby and strolled in the stronghold.

This stockade is newly built on the Loess Plateau, which is also close to the mountain. On the left is the desert grassland, and on the right is a large area of cultivated land. At this time, the potatoes in the field have reached the harvest season, the corn is also full of ears, and the wheat is golden. Waves of wheat rise in the wind. The whole color is so strong and vibrant.

Unlike the dangerous terrain and buildings in the backyard of Shanzhai, the front yard is an open courtyard. At this time, the front yard is golden, full of corn, potatoes and newly harvested wheat. Men are fighting in the middle, and dozens of women are chatting in the surrounding corner while picking up crops.

Seeing that those women were rubbing corn out of corn kernels and placing them in one side of the dustpan, Ling Qingyu became interested, quietly walked aside, squatted down to watch them work, and listened to the so happy topics they talked.

"Sister, where did they go out this time? I'm glad to see them back this time." A woman asked a young woman sitting in the middle.

"It's not that you don't know the rules of our stockade. Is it what we can ask about men?" The woman looked up and said with a smile. She quickly twisted the corn ears into corn grains with her hands.

"We don't know it's right. Sister zhixia, you have married Du Tongling. Can you still know?" Another woman laughed.

"Hurry up and ask such a thing. Don't you want to stay here?" An older woman next to the young woman glanced at her sideways.

"What can we do to talk casually? In fact, who doesn't know that most of the people in our stockade sell illegal salt." The woman's unconvinced way.

"Speaking of it, a few days ago, many people who had not seen before also entered the stockade. That momentum, oh, did they make a single big one this time?" A woman next to the woman asked.

"If I were you, I'd better just take care of my own affairs and don't ask what I shouldn't know," the young woman smiled and said, "by the way, sister-in-law Zhang, your land has been collected?"

The woman next to the young woman smiled and said, "not yet, half of it is not time, but I have collected these now, and I have enough food for next year. Speaking of it, I really want to thank the head of the family. These products are only available here. I went back to my mother's house the other day, and the villagers don't know how envious they are, so they all want to ask us for some seeds."

"Yes, sister Zhi Xia, can you tell Du Tongling? These seeds are also given to the village?" Another woman laughed.

The young woman paused, looked up at the golden color in the yard, nodded and said, "if you're free, I'll ask."

After receiving her words, the women began to talk about other things, from their fields to their children, and then detoured back to the men in the cottage.

"By the way, sister Zhi Xia, go talk about it."

"Say what?" The young woman looked at the woman with a trace of laughter and said with a smile.

"Don't embarrass me, sister Xia," the woman beside the young woman waved her hand and said, "if you really think your daughter is worthy of Meng Tongling, talk to him yourself. I think Meng Tongling is a good talker."

The woman was choked by what she said, and turned her head with silk red on her face. "Then we didn't have a chance to talk to him. Hey, hey, look, who is that man? He's so handsome!"

The women in the circle all turned their heads and saw several people coming from the door. Du Ming and Meng Su followed a very handsome man from left to right. Although the man was only dressed in blue and his hair was simply tied up with a white cloth belt behind his head, he was tall and straight, with a cool air, and he was more bloody than Meng Su and Du Ming behind him.

The man looked around and walked towards them. A smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. Suddenly, the handsome face became vivid, making a trace of crimson appear on the faces of a group of eldest sisters and aunts.

The young woman stood up, took a few steps, gave Du Ming an inquisitive look, saw Du Ming smile and Nuo mouth, and then stepped back a few steps. Only then did she find a woman squatting behind her and two men standing against the wall behind her.

Yang Zhao walked up to Ling Qingyu, pulled her up and said, "don't your feet hurt by squatting like this?"

As soon as he said this, Ling Qingyu found that his feet were indeed numb. As soon as he gave a cry, he was hugged by Yang Zhao and half hugged.

Ling Qingyu jumped twice to remove the numbness from his feet, and then smiled at Du Ming, "your wife? Don't you introduce me?"

Du Ming smiled. You've been squatting beside the corner for so long. Do you want me to introduce you? Then he pulled the young woman and said, "this is my daughter-in-law. Ye zhixia, ye zhixia, this is the head of the family."

auzw. Ye zhixia was stunned, and then his face turned a little red. He saluted deeply and said, "I've seen the master."

Ling Qingyu hurried to help her and said with a smile, "you're welcome! You're welcome! I'm older than you. Just call me sister."

Her foot injury was not completely healed, and she squatted for so long. Although she borrowed Yang Zhao's strength, she still had no strength on her feet. With such a rush, she was a little staggered. Yang Zhao fished her hand, picked her up, and then said, "go back to the room and talk."

"If we provide seeds, can we benefit from the harvest of those fields?" As soon as he entered the room, Ling Qingyu asked ye zhixia.

Ye zhixia was stunned and said, "what does the head say?"

Yang Zhao put Ling Qingyu on the Kang and sat down. Then he squatted down and lifted up the corner of her skirt, massaged her legs, and said, "sit down and say it."

"The species I brought back are actually very suitable for this land, and the yield can be increased a lot. They are very good food substitutes for the northwest, but we can't provide free promotion. It's no problem for us to provide seeds. What benefits do we have?" Ling Qingyu stared at ye zhixia and asked.

Ye zhixia looked at Du Ming and sat down with a touch on the chair. Then he said, "if the head of the household is willing to provide seeds, I think first, we can ask them to take part of our seeds for free, and second, we can ask them to sell the surplus grain to us at a reasonable price."

"OK," Ling Qingyu patted his hand and said with a smile, "well, I'll leave it to you. In fact, potatoes can be processed into starch and then made into grain that can be stored. In this way, even if there are more people here, I'm not afraid of no food."

Ye zhixia was stunned, then jumped up and said, "how can you give me such a big deal?"

"Your mother's house is nearby, isn't it?" Seeing ye zhixia nodding, Ling Qingyu said with a smile, "then I just ask you, are you confident that you will get those grains back after the seeds are distributed?"

Ye zhixia was silent, lowered his head, gently coiled his fingers together and stirred each other for a long time. Fang raised his head, and said with clear eyes, "I can."

Du Ming put his hand on ye zhixia's waist and gently pulled beside him.

"Then it's settled." Ling Qingyu showed a big smile and said, "if there are those who don't admit it, Du Ming will come forward. If there are details that you don't understand, you are welcome to come to me at any time, or you can find a person named Han Liang."

Ye zhixia followed Du Ming all the way to his yard. He was still a little dizzy. He sat on the Kang and asked, "I said, who is in charge?"

"In the summer, the head of the household is to make this area our food supply place step by step. These things will be very cumbersome and troublesome," Du Ming poured a glass of water to her and said, "are you sure you can do it?"

Ye zhixia raised her head and said, "I can do it naturally. In fact, I've been thinking about it for a long time. Although you make a lot of money selling smuggled salt, it's not always a matter. Moreover, there are more and more people in the stockade, and there will always be a day when there is not enough food."

"Summer," Du Ming sat beside her and said, "if we don't just sell smuggled salt, what we can't do in the future is to behead..."

Ye zhixia blocked Du Ming's mouth with her hand and said with a smile, "when I said I was going to marry you, I had expected it. Although you do what you think you should do, I won't hold you back. Moreover," she turned her head to the direction just left outside the house and said, "I prefer to do what I can do with you. You're right. We are not ordinary people who are in charge of our family."

"Don't worry about it. If someone defaults, your husband and I will definitely beat him out of sight." Du Ming laughed.

"Well, it's Du Ming who has a good eye for his wife." Ling Qingyu supported his chin and said.

Yang Zhao put his relaxed legs on, looked at her expression and said with a smile, "are you so optimistic about her?"

"In fact, there are many capable women, but whether you give her a chance or not." Lingqingyu said that after listening to the wall foot for so long, ye zhixia politely refused most of the requests made by those women, and if the excessive request was directly harsh, she was a very clear person who could distinguish right from wrong. When it came to seeds, her face was obviously thinking. Such a person doesn't need it. Who uses it? Moreover, she is a local, and when actually doing it, she is much better than Han Liang and them.

Yang Zhao smiled. Du Ming's daughter-in-law was indeed rare, but no matter how rare, she couldn't compare with her own daughter-in-law.

"Zhao, I still have to go to Lingjia village." Seeing Yang Zhao's face suddenly changed, Ling Qingyu passed by him a little, "Originally, we decided to go to Europe together this year, but now we can't go. After all, we have to talk to everyone and adjust the future development. This time, I've asked Shen Zhan and them to find more people to transport to other places, and we should also make arrangements. Don't worry, I won't stay long, I'll deal with the matter and come back. Then, I'll wait until you get away, and we'll go together."

"I'll take you." After pondering for a moment, Yang Zhao said, "I'll take you to Quanzhou."

"Zhao!" Ling Qingyu said in surprise, now Liaoguo and Dangxiang are still fighting in Shuozhou, and running to Quanzhou from Dai County, even if it takes him more than a month to return, how can he not be here for such a long time?

Yang Zhao gently hugged her in his arms and said, "let me send it away, otherwise, Zhao can't be at ease."

"But?" Ling Qingyu also wanted to say what to do if he knew what to do for the court, but when he thought about it, how could he care about anything else even if he had done such things as cross-border attacks, his heart suddenly softened.

"Now the Liaoguo Dangxiang is facing off in Shuozhou. After autumn, the weather is cold, and the army will not start. By the end of this year, the emperor will definitely call us both to Bianjing. Then I will wait for you in Hangzhou, and we will go to Bianjing together." Yang Zhao kissed Ling Qingyu's cheek and said.
