"Xiao Linzi is a scholar, so his knowledge is naturally broader than that of us old men."
Lin Xiaowu interjected.
"Not at all!"
Mazi retorted: "Young Master Yu is also a scholar, but his brain is not as smart as our Xiaolin!"
"That's true, hahaha..."
When Lin Xiaowu heard what Mazi said, he laughed honestly.
"Brother Xiao Wu, Mazi, I will give each of you one tael of silver. Tomorrow you go to the capital to go shopping and buy some rare goods for your sisters-in-law. I have to attend a poetry club tomorrow, so I won't be able to accompany you."
Lin Xiao took out two taels of silver and handed them to Lin Xiaowu and Lin Xiaowu.
"This is absolutely impossible! Xiao Linzi, we can't take this money!"
Lin Xiaowu refused righteously.
"Yes, we are very happy that you can bring us to the capital. How can we still take your money?"
Mazi also agreed.
"Take it! These are my gifts to my two sisters-in-law. They usually take care of my wife and concubines, as they should."
"this……"
Lin Xiaowu and Mazi looked at each other and accepted the money with some embarrassment.
"Xiao Linzi, we will accept the money first. From now on, we will deliver salt to Jin Sanniang's shop for free!"
Lin Xiaowu patted his chest and promised.
"become!"
Lin Xiao agreed with a smile. She needed help right now, and Lin Xiaowu and Mazi were the best candidates!
Early the next morning, Yu Xilin found Lin Xiao who was having breakfast at the inn.
"Did the poetry club start so early?"
"Brother Lin, to be honest, I ate the shredded chicken seasoned with the salt you made yesterday, and I have been thinking about the taste from last night to this morning!"
Yu Xilin said excitedly, almost drooling when he spoke.
Lin Xiao just smiled lightly after hearing Yu Xilin's explanation.
She asked the waiter to bring her a breakfast similar to hers, and then put some salt in it.
Yu Xilin was eating steamed buns with side dishes, her mouth was full of salty and delicious taste, and she was extremely satisfied.
"Brother Lin, your salt must be sold in the capital as soon as possible. Otherwise, I really won't be able to survive!"
After breakfast, the two of them walked on the streets full of fireworks, feeling a faint sense of homesickness.
Once upon a time, in modern times, Lin Xiao walked like this on the pedestrian street with her beloved male god.
But now she has traveled to the Great Xia Dynasty, and there is no possibility of seeing her male god again.
Thinking of the male god, Lin Xiao naturally thought of Bai Zhancheng, who looked exactly like the male god. I wonder what happened to Li Yuyan and Bai Zhancheng?
Are you still adapting to life in the army?
…
Liu Yong volunteered to follow Li Yuyan to Yingzui Mountain to suppress bandits.
Ever since Li Yuyan used a trick to annihilate all the hateful Japanese pirates without using a single soldier, Liu Yong was deeply impressed by the wise Li Yuyan.
Although Li Yuyan is young, he possesses incredible wisdom and courage. He believes that as long as he stays with Li Yuyan for a while, he will be able to learn a lot.
Li Yuyan originally knew nothing about the art of war, otherwise he would not have been hunted down by Li Yuquan's men until he had to remain anonymous and disguise himself as a woman to survive.
But through Lin Xiao's short stories day and night, he also learned a lot about the art of war that he had never heard before.
Li Yuyan and others disguised themselves as merchants, pushed the cart to the boundary of Yingzui Mountain, and then rested for a while, waiting for the bandits to take the bait.
"Brother Ninth, I've heard about Yingzui Mountain. Although there are only a few people who can talk to each other, no one can easily capture them due to the complex terrain. Are we sure we can capture them?
"
Liu Yong took the water bag from his waist and handed it to Li Yuyan who was sitting next to him, and then asked.
Li Yuyan took the water bag and took a few sips, then corrected:
"It's not capture, it's annihilation!"
"Eradicate? There must be at least a hundred people in Yingzui Mountain. It would be too cruel to exterminate them all, wouldn't it?"
Liu Yong frowned, obviously disapproving of Li Yuyan's suggestion.
"The bandits in Yingzui Mountain are different from those in other places. Which one of them doesn't have several lives on their hands?"
Li Yuyan took another sip of water and continued angrily:
"Cruel? Haha, wouldn't they be cruel when they kill innocent people?"
After saying that, Li Yuyan patted Liu Yong on the shoulder and said sincerely:
"Vice President Liu, you must not treat your enemies with the kindness of a woman!"
This sentence was also what Lin Xiao had repeatedly warned.
She was afraid that Li Yuyan would lose his life due to a moment of weakness when he followed Bai Zhancheng to the battlefield, so she emphasized it several times.
"I see!"
Liu Yong responded seriously.
"Okay, everyone, cheer up, don't capsize in the ditch and end up in Yingzui Mountain!"
Li Yuyan said to everyone with a serious face.
Everyone responded in unison: "As you command!"
The bandit spies from Yingzui Mountain saw Li Yuyan and others resting in the dense bushes.
He carefully looked at the clothes of those people and the several large wooden boxes pulled on the cart.
"Finally a big fish came!"
The spy thought to himself.
Then he quietly left the place.
He quickly reported every move of Li Yuyan and others to the head of Yingzui Mountain.
The big boss’s name is Zhang San, and he was originally an inconspicuous young man in Yingzui Mountain.
The reason why he went up the mountain was because he once killed all five members of his neighbor's family for three copper coins.
Later, after most of Yingzui Mountain was wiped out by the imperial court, he made a comeback and became the current leader of Yingzui Mountain.
"Are you sure it's a big fish?"
Zhang San pondered for a moment and asked the spies.
"The clothes those merchants wear are made of the best quality fabrics, and the wooden boxes they carry on their carts are very heavy. They probably contain some really good things!"
The spy reported back.
"oh?"
Zhang San was slightly shocked when he heard this. It was the first time for him to meet such a wealthy businessman.
"Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving! Send the order and follow me to catch the big fish!"
"yes!"
The spies were ordered to retreat.
Zhang San looked at the leaves blowing in the wind not far away, with a sly sneer on his face, and murmured to himself:
"After all these years, I finally have the opportunity to make a fortune!"
What Zhang San didn't know was that Li Yuyan had already made preparations for a battle when the spies went back to report.
The rest of them took their repeating crossbows and hid in the grass, leaving only Li Yuyan and Liu Yong at the scene.
In order to prevent the big fish that had finally waited for him from escaping, Zhang San led dozens of armed bandits to outflank Li Yuyan and the others.
This was very painful for the soldiers who were hiding in the grass.
They had to sneak away from the bandits who came to rob them like eagles catching chickens, and then kept changing directions in the grass.
After finally waiting for the bandits to capture Li Yuyan and Liu Yong, they breathed a sigh of relief and continued to lurk at their original location.
