Section 27: Public Meeting
Two days is a short time, but it’s enough time to dazzle.
The morning in Yejia Village comes earlier than in other villages. Early in the morning, all kinds of things start to operate.
When Ye Tan listened to the chirping of birds on the tree, he knew it was getting late. Now Ye Liang doesn't call him to get up much because the child is tired. There is no servant in Ye Liang's home yet. Where can there be any servants in the countryside?
Ah, but Ye Liang is also a restless person, so he went out to work early in the morning.
In front of Ye Tan's house, under the shade of the trees, Ye Du and others have already arrived. Everyone has a horse beside them, and they all seem to be able to ride. Since Yejia Village has gradually become richer, some things have begun to appear.
Matched.
Ye Tan washed his face, then ate something. When he arrived at the door and saw everyone waiting for him, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He put the package in his hand on the saddle, then waved, and everyone got on their horses, and then headed towards the village.
Go outside.
Everyone who saw these people along the way had kind smiles on their faces and hoped they could come back as soon as possible.
It took a day, and in the evening, Ye Tan and others arrived at Songzhou City.
Because they were not in a hurry, they waited outside the city gate, hoping to enter the city early the next morning. Originally, Ye Hu meant to ask those few people, and maybe they could go in directly.
But Ye Tan didn't want to be blamed, so he had to do this. Fortunately, he bought some food when he was in Jiulipu, but it was nothing.
The nights have been getting hotter and hotter recently. A few people found a big tree and lay down. Although there were mosquitoes, they still felt comfortable and acceptable.
Everyone else was asleep, only Ye Tan looked at the moonlight between the branches of the trees, and found a problem in his heart. He slowly forgot many things about his past, as if he had integrated into this place, every day
He was busy working on Yejiacun's affairs. During this time, he felt that he had grown a lot.
The chirping of the cicadas on the trees has disappeared, and there are always all kinds of strange insects in the quiet wilderness that seem to be screaming, as if they are unwilling to stay in one place.
Ye Tan thought to himself, maybe I am just such a person.
Early in the morning, a few people woke up. When they saw the sound of cars and horses not far away, they knew that some people nearby were also getting up to do business. There were also some Tibetan people passing by on good horses. Some people even took a look.
There were several of them. How could the Central Plains people have such good horses, and they were all children. However, these people did not dismount, but went straight through.
Ye Tan and the others found a small river to wash their faces and felt much better. Then they straightened their clothes before leading their horses into the city.
Compared to Jiulipu, Songzhou City was definitely more lively, but it made several other people very envious. Only Ye Tan felt a depressing uneasiness from it.
Ye Tan quickly found Li Lin's home. Looking at the guards in armor at the door, he asked Ye Du to come forward and ask questions.
Soon, Ye Du came back and said he wanted to let them in. The horses were handed over to the guards. The guards couldn't help but be envious when they saw how well these child-looking country people rode horses.
As soon as I walked into the yard, I heard Li Lin's voice. This man should be practicing martial arts. For a person who has been in command of the army all year round, he would get up on time every day.
After seeing Ye Tan, he didn't let go. The spear in his hand was like a silver snake dancing wildly, with dense dots drawing arcs in the air. It seemed that he had been practicing for a while, and he was in good spirits. There was sweat on his forehead.
Ye Tan stood on the side and did not come close. Several other people were also restrained by Li Lin's toughness, their eyes were blazing. Although they also practiced what Ye Tan gave them, most of them did it with bare hands.
, there is almost nothing about weapons.
"Here, kid, take the move." Just when Ye Tan was about to say a few nice words, the spear in Li Lin's hand flew away and flew towards Ye Tan's face.
Knowing that this old guy was going to make a fool of himself, Ye Tan stood there without moving. Ye Biao, who was standing on the side, suddenly reached out and held the spear in his hand, then flicked it with his backhand, directly piercing a thick spear.
Ancient wood.
"Okay." Li Lin wiped his sweat, walked over, looked at Ye Biao's figure, and said happily, "You are indeed very talented."
"Uncle Li, you are trying to scare me to death. You really are scaring me to death." Ye Biao didn't say anything. He was already clumsy, but Ye Tan just shouted "Qu".
It was really not like seeing Ye Tan's expression of being obedient after getting a bargain, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go eat, Pei Yuan and Li Xin still need some time."
Ye Tan originally wanted to say not to eat, but the few people who came with him were not full, so he had no choice but to go along.
Sure enough, there is nothing good for breakfast, just bread, some meat, and at most some porridge.
Ye Tan couldn't eat it, but the other people didn't have such worries, and their stomachs swallowed like a bottomless pit.
"When did you come?" Li Lin had a huge appetite and always ate out of a basin. After finishing his drink, Li Lin asked.
"We arrived last night. We waited outside the city gate all night before coming in." Ye Tan said casually. Although he didn't want to eat the bread and meat, the porridge was still good. The millet porridge tasted really good.
"Then why don't you come in?" Li Lin asked puzzledly.
"It's inconvenient." Ye Tan's words made him stunned for a moment, then he figured it out, pointed at Ye Tan and said, "Little slippery head."
Li Lin knew that he was here for negotiation today, not to reminisce about old times.
Li Lin's son is called Li Dechao. After Ye Tan had eaten, this man got up. Although he was also tough and strong, he was meticulous in his work. It was obvious at first glance that he was not a rough man. It's just that such a big man didn't like to say this.
It doesn't feel good.
After dinner, several people were talking at Li's house. Ye Tan asked someone to bring teacups and hot water, then opened the box in his hand, pinched a small cluster and put it in, then brewed it with hot water, and the fragrance came out.
came.
Li Lin passed it and drank it directly. Ye Tan felt it was very hot anyway.
"It's just the same thing, how can this thing be so magical?" Li Lin is a military commander, and he is toasting meat, fish, and wine. Tea is really not suitable for him.
"We plan to pound this thing into tea bricks. If General Li goes to the grassland in winter and doesn't eat vegetables for several months, can you bear it?" Ye Tan poured a cup himself, tasted it gently, and then asked.
"I'm afraid that won't work." Although they are generals who like to eat meat and drink alcohol, if they don't eat vegetables for a long time, they will collapse. They may not know what it means, but they understand the general principle.
"That's it. People in the grasslands used to like to eat grass. Now we let them stop eating grass." After Ye Tan finished speaking, he took another sip and closed his eyes. He felt really comfortable. As for what Li Lin was about to say, he just listened.
A voice came from outside, "Hey Li Lin, this delicious food, are you eating alone?"
Ye Tan quickly stood up and walked out, because the person who came was Li Xin, but next to him was a young man. Although he pretended to be casual, the mark of a big family was still very obvious on his body. He was arrogant and restrained. These two strange things
An atmosphere was created around him.
"Uncle Li, you are here. This should be the Governor." Ye Tan and Li Xin are very familiar with each other. Although the people next to them don't know who they are, they will think of it unconsciously when they see Li Xin following each other.
Chapter completed!
