Riding the Pheonix Chapter 333: knowingly
Xiaotong came out of Yang Shu's room holding the torn bed tent and asked casually: "Sir, why did your bed frame fall apart like that?"
Yang Shu, who was drinking tea, choked and took out his handkerchief to wipe it with a bit of embarrassment, pretending to be calm and calm: "I accidentally bumped it and it fell apart."
"Is it so unreliable?" Xiaotong muttered, and then thought of how the young master seemed angry yesterday, so she advised, "Sir, if you are angry, just tell Miss Ming, the bed is innocent!"
She thought Yang Shu had torn down the bed in anger.
Yang Shu, who knew the truth, could only pretend that he didn't hear it.
Xiaotong put down the bed tent and went back to clean it up. After a while, she came out with the balled sheets and asked: "Sir, why did you leave this under the bed? It doesn't seem to be broken, right? I'll take it and wash it..."
When Yang Shu saw something bad, he quickly went to grab it: "You don't need to wash it, I'll take care of it myself..."
"How can this be done?" Xiaotong defended her duties as a maid, "How can I let the young master do this? Of course I will do it!"
Yang Shu did not hesitate to grab the sheets back and ordered: "Do you listen to you or do you listen to me?"
"Okay..." Xiaotong reluctantly let go.
Yang Shu just hid the sheets and Ning Xiu came out.
"Senior brother."
Ning Xiu nodded and asked naturally: "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Yang Shu didn't understand: "Huh?"
"I went to bed so late last night. You could see that the girl didn't get up."
? ? ?
Brother, why do you know? !
……
Hou Liang heard the summons and came over with a low eyebrow.
He knows that his status is in jeopardy recently. There are many people coming to the capital, including shopkeepers, accountants, scribes, etc. The opportunities for the young master to use him have become less and less.
Compared to him, the young master definitely trusts people from the capital more. Hou Liang knew that he had to wait for the opportunity to show off his skills and show his due value in order to gain the position he wanted.
However, he was afraid that before he had the chance, he would already...
"Here we come!" Mingwei walked past the corridor wearing white socks and said hello casually.
Hou Liang quickly saluted respectfully: "Miss Ming."
"Take off your shoes and come with me." She said lightly and opened the study door.
Hou Liang was flattered.
Tell him to take off his shoes? Is he already qualified to enter the house? No matter what, seize the opportunity first!
Hou Liang took off his shoes, carefully dusted off the dust on his socks and hems, and followed lightly to the study.
Mingwei sat down in the chair, looked at Hou Liang, who was bowing his head and was extremely obedient, and casually pointed: "You can sit down too."
Hou Liang's head lowered: "I don't dare."
Mingwei didn't force it, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then got straight to the point: "The house is almost finished, I guess Mr. Hou has been very busy recently, right?"
When Hou Liang heard this, he thought he was going to lose his job, and hurriedly said: "There are still a lot of things to do, especially the young master's mansion. Every detail must be carefully crafted."
"There is no need to carve it so finely." Ming Wei said lightly, "You know, the focus is on the city wall."
Hou Liang was even more panicked: "Little ones, little ones can do other things..."
Don’t you think he is useless anymore and want to kill people to silence him? After all, he already knew the true purpose of building Wu Fort.
Mingwei smiled when she saw him like this: "Sir, do you think that we have used you and now you are going to be lost?"
Hou Liang was startled: "No?"
"I'm thinking too much! Sir, it's so easy to use, how can I give it up?" Mingwei said meaningfully, "It's just that I have another task. I wonder if Sir is interested?"
"Interested, interested!" Hou Liang nodded desperately like a chicken pecking at rice.
His intuition told him that the opportunity had come!
"Okay!" Mingwei said sternly, "You can organize a decent caravan within half a month, and then we will set off to cross Yanshan Mountain!"
Caravan, crossing Yanshan? Are you going to Hu Di? Wouldn't that be...
"Smuggling?" Hou Liang whispered.
Ming smiled and said: "Yes!"
Hou Liang was confused: "Young Master doesn't like..."
"Young master is a master, I am me." Mingwei said, "It would be a pity to keep a talent like Mr. to build a house. I can definitely achieve a great career in Hudi."
Hou Liang looked back, feeling happy and worried at the same time.
The good news is that if you really want to smuggle, he will be useful. What's worrying is that smuggling is a very dangerous thing, especially since the land of Hu is not peaceful recently, and losing one's life is common.
He doesn’t even want dignity, isn’t it just to save his life? It seems a bit unworthy to take this risk...
"What, sir, don't you want to go?" Seeing his delay in answering, Mingwei asked.
Hou Liang raised his head and saw her deep eyes, gritted his teeth and agreed: "Girl, as long as I am useful, I will not dare to resign!"
It's possible to come back safely from Hu Di. If you don't agree, the fun will be over soon, right? In this case, let’s fight!
Mingwei nodded with satisfaction: "Sir, hurry up and get ready!"
Hou Liang's mind was racing and he said, "Miss Ming, may I ask you a few questions?"
"Ask."
"Is the purpose of our going to Hudi just to make money?"
Ming smiled and said: "It's not us, it's you."
"Huh?"
"You are the boss of the caravan." Mingwei said, "And I am just a mysterious scholar who follows your caravan to travel to Hudi and earn some commissions. So, you decide what goods to bring. Let's go. It's up to you to decide which way to go."
"..." Hou Liang had a bad feeling. The purpose of smuggling this Buddha was definitely not as simple as making money.
But he didn't dare to ask in detail. After pondering for a while, he got an idea and replied: "I understand, little one."
"As long as you understand." Mingwei waved his hand, "Go ahead, pay some money to Duofu, and then go to the county town and tell Shopkeeper Yang, and he will naturally help you purchase the goods. As for the manpower, Shopkeeper Yang will do the same. Be prepared, and if you have a suitable candidate, you can bring it with you."
"Yes."
Hou Liang acted very quickly and went to the county seat that day.
He has already figured it out. The young master plans to run Gaotang, so when Miss Ming goes to Hu Di, it must not be as simple as smuggling. The most likely reason is to use smuggling to find out about the situation in Hu Di.
In this case, they can't just take the safe route. The major tribes have to go wherever they can.
Of course, it must be covered up well, so you must bring enough goods, and you must not expose any flaws.
A few days later, the route map decided by Hou Liang was handed over to Mingwei.
While watching, she discussed with Yang Shu: "This old boy~IndoMTL.com~ is really smart. I only revealed so little information to him and understood my intention."
Looking at the route map he planned, he passed through several royal courts, which happened to be the places he must pass to inquire about the situation.
Yang Shu said: "Even so, you should be careful. If he sells the caravan in order to survive, the loss will be huge."
"Don't worry, I will let the little white snake keep an eye on him."
Mingwei put the route map on the table, looked at him and smiled: "I will be leaving in a few days. Is there anything you want to do now?"
Yang Shu coughed slightly, turned his head on one side, and reached out to hold her hand on the other: "You know what you're asking!"
