Chapter 291

Then Zheng Qiu went to the stall and said loudly, "folks, today's potatoes are sold here, and the rest are wrapped by this young man."

As soon as Zheng Qiu's words fell, those who didn't buy potatoes complained, "what's the matter? We've all been waiting for such a long time."

"That's it."

Other people who didn't buy it said the same thing.

At this time, Zheng Qiu reached out to those who did not buy potatoes to calm down, and then said, "don't worry, everyone. Although potatoes have been bought by this young man, we will bring them to sell in two days."

"Seriously?" After someone listened, he asked Zheng Qiu in a dubious way.

Zheng Qiu nodded and then said, "you can come at the latest the day after tomorrow."

"Will potatoes still be at this price then? Won't the price increase? " Then someone asked with a worried face.

Only see Zheng Qiu said with a smile at this time, "everyone rest assured that the price will be the same as today, will not change."

"If so, then we can rest assured." After hearing this, they nodded.

We need to know that these potatoes are delicious and easy to store. Now the price of rice is sky high. These poor people, after paying public grain, have little left. It is impossible for them to survive the winter relying on the remaining rice.

Now some people sell potatoes cheaply. They just can store them for the Spring Festival.

Then, the crowd in front of the potato stall slowly dispersed.

At this time, Zheng Qiu turned around and said, "put all these potatoes on the carriage."

"OK." The village representatives nodded their heads.

As soon as possible starts to move.

Zheng Qiu went to Xiao Mu at the moment. "Brother Xiao, there are still five carts of potatoes left. They will be loaded in the carriage. Please hurry to the frontier fortress."

"Thank you very much, Ruiyi." Xiao Mu said at this time, and then looked at Ruiyi.

Ruiyi agrees, then takes out ten Liang silver from the body, and hands it to Zheng Qiu.

When Zheng Qiu saw this, he quickly handed Ruiyi the silver in front of him and pushed it away. "Brother Xiao, I can't do anything about it. You didn't do much in Jiandu before. If we didn't have the Marquis and you, we wouldn't have thought of planting potatoes. These potatoes would have been sent to the frontier guards."

"That's not the case. Now all the people of Jiandu have their hopes on these potatoes, and they have to wait for the money they sell to spend the winter. Take it." Xiaomu said and walked forward.

Then he took over the silver in Ruiyi's hand, then took Zheng Qiu's hand and put the silver in his hand, "take it."

"Brother Xiao, here There won't be so many potatoes. " Zheng Qiu then looked at Xiao Mu and said to him.

Xiao Mu said with a smile, "although you don't have so much potatoes, you didn't give me all the carriages."

"It doesn't take that much, even if it's a carriage." Zheng Qiu then said to Xiao Mu.

Xiao Mu then said to Zheng Qiu, "don't care so much, it will save me a lot of time. With the extra money, you will take your brothers to eat a bowl of noodles to keep you warm."

"In that case, thank you very much, brother Xiao." Zheng Qiu saw that he could not refuse, and then he began to say to him.

Xiao Mu nodded his head contentedly, then patted Zheng Qiu on the shoulder and said, "that's right. In order not to delay time, we set off for the frontier fortress. If we have a chance later, we will get together again."

"Good." Zheng Qiu should be at this time.

Then he asked people to lead the carriage out.

"Brother Xiao, potatoes are here." Zheng Qiu then said to him.

Xiao Mu nodded, "well, we'll see you later."

Immediately, Xiao Mu's men took the carriage, walked out of the market, and then went to Tongfu inn.

They should first transport the three stone rice they bought yesterday.

After Xiao Mu and his party left, Zheng Qiu said to everyone at this time, "everyone has been busy for such a long time. I think they are hungry. How about eating noodles?"

"Well, I haven't had hot soup for two days." At this time, Su Tong took the lead.

See all agree, Zheng Qiu then let a person lead empty carriage to walk out of vegetable market.

By this time, the street was full of people.

From time to time, the smell of meat buns came from the breakfast stand. At this time, Zheng Qiu went to a breakfast shop and said, "boss, do you have any noodles?"

"Yes, sir. How many people?" The guy who helped out at the breakfast shop asked Zheng Qiu with a smile.

Zheng Qiu then said to the boy, "there are fifteen in all."

"Fifteen people, OK. This way, please." After listening, the boy led Zheng Qiu and others to their seats and sat down.

Then the boy asked again, "my guest, do you want to eat meat noodles or plain noodles?"

"What's the price of shredded meat noodles? What's the price of plain noodles? " After hearing this, Su Tong asked the boy.

Only to hear that little guy at this time said, "plain noodles are one Wen, one bowl, and shredded meat noodles are two Wen."

"Two? Is that too much meat? " After hearing this, Su Tong asked again.

At this time, the young man said to Su Tong with a smile, "my guest, don't worry, the meat noodle in our shop is recognized as the most meat noodle shop in this street."

After hearing this, Su Tong looked at Zheng Qiu with a smile. "Brother Zheng, do you think you've been running back and forth on the road for so long, and you've been busy all morning, and the potatoes are selling so well, or you can treat us?"

I saw Zheng Qiu's eyebrows drooping and thinking. Su Tong saw this, and then said, "brother Zheng, what else can I think about?"

"That's good. A piece of shredded meat noodles for each." Zheng Qiu then looked up and said to the boy.

Also, we worked hard all the way and were busy early in the morning. These days, we didn't touch a hot soup. Today, potatoes are sold so well. As Su Tong said, right should be a treat.

After listening, the boy then said with a smile, "OK, please wait a moment, my guest."

Then the boy shouted, "Table 1, 15 bowls of shredded meat noodles."

Before long, the delicious shredded meat noodles came to us, and we all ate them with relish.

To be honest, since the flood, it has been difficult to feed before, let alone eat meat.

After finishing the noodles in the bowl, everyone burps a lot. That guy is right. The amount of noodles is enough, and the meat is OK.

After everyone had eaten, the party got on the carriage, left Suizhou City and returned to the capital.

And Xiao Mu and others came to Tongfu Inn, returned the house money, pulled out the rice stored in the inn, and left Suizhou City, and went to the frontier fortress.

Xiao Mu looks at a few cars full of potatoes, which should last for a while.

We need to know that there are some unidentified and strange people in Xiling now, which would have greatly reduced the morale of the soldiers. If another army of the soldiers was short of food, it would have been a disaster.

But now that there are these potatoes, there are other ways for them to think out.

Thinking of this, Xiao Mu asked people to speed up their footwork. Two days have passed since the frontier fortress. At that time, General Li said that the Army food could last for five days at most. They must arrive at the frontier fortress before the Army food.

And then Xiling.

Tomorrow is the day when Zhan you promised the three-day deadline for the king of Xiling, but Zhan you's body still hasn't fully recovered.

At this time, he could not help looking out of the window at the cold bright moon. Now he knows that his body is not as good as a day. If he goes on like this, he will die before Xiling dominates the world.

Thinking of this, his disciple Fengxian came in at this time, and Gongshou said, "master, the emperor's people come to see you. Let master go now."

"Well, I see." Zhan you then looked at the moon and sighed.

Then he turned to Fengxian and said, "go and get my cloak."

"Yes, master." In response, he went to one side and took the cloak hanging on the chair to Zhan you, then put it on for Zhan you.

Zhan you's eyebrows drooped for a moment, then he went out.

Now that his body has just recovered, he can't control the nightmare bug again.

The vast bedroom of the king of Xiling.

Zhan you went to the door, then he knelt down and said, "kowtow to the king of Xiling."

"Come in." LAN Kuo heard Zhan you's voice and said.

Zhan you said, "yes."

Then he stood up and pushed the door open, walked in, then turned around and closed the door.

Then he went to the front arch and said, "emperor."

"Don't be polite, Zhan Gu. Sit down." LAN Kuo said at this time, looking at an empty position.

Zhan you then said, "thank you, Emperor."

Zhan you walked to one side and sat down.

When he sat down, LAN Kuo looked at Zhan you and said, "I don't know if Zhan Gu is ready?"

"Emperor, I have a proposal that we can let the Dongling army admit defeat by itself without any cost to us." When Zhan you heard that the king of Xiling asked about tomorrow, he said first.

After hearing this, LAN Kuo frowned slightly and then said, "Oh, what's the best way for Xiao Gu?"

"In the past, when the capital was built, there was water and waterlogging, but there was no grain for the frontier fortress to escort. Even if they had stored grain and counted the days, there would be no grain. We first sent the news to the Dongling army, and then when the morale of the soldiers was low, we could start again and finish it all." Zhan you said at this time.

"It's feasible to hear Zhan Gu's saying, but I heard that the emperor of Dongling had already sent relief food to the frontier fortress." LAN Kuo nodded first, then frowned slightly, and then said.

Zhan you then raised his head and said to LAN Kuo, "the king of Xiling didn't know anything about it. Previously, I asked someone to inquire about it. Then the emperor of Dongling sent a hundred stone rations. In addition, more than two months have passed and it should have been finished. The king of Xiling is assured that this news will not be wrong."

"If so, then the king is waiting for two days, and you will tell people to prepare," Lan Kuo said to Zhan you after hearing this.

Zhan you now sees LAN Kuo to agree, in the heart cannot but relax a breath, then arch to say, "yes, the king of Xiling."

With that, Zhan you backed out.

When he returned to the house, he called Fengxian.

"Master, the king of Xiling will send troops to Dongling tomorrow?" Fengxian then went to take off Zhan you's cloak and asked.
