In addition to the vast expanse of grassland in front of them, there were also clear streams and rivers, and the fresh fragrance of grass made Li Ling and Hei Lin very relaxed and happy.
"When I go to Baiyun County to report this time, do you think those An Ye seniors will separate you and me?" Li Ling rode forward on the Fire Lin Deer.
At the beginning, the news brought by Ming Xiao was that Li Ling and Hei Lin must report to Baiyun County within a year. This year is so long, which obviously gave them enough rest time. Although, Baiyun County left
Young Master Ye Cheng said it was three thousand miles away, but one year was enough.
"Separate the weaving, just separate the weaving. I'm so happy that I can't see you." Hei Lin was riding a white horse.
Li Ling sighed in his heart, women just say what they say and mean what they mean.
On the flat road, a convoy suddenly came forward. The convoy was very long, about a few hundred meters in length, and the people were close to each other. Each vehicle was loaded with something, but it was invisible and all were covered with cloth.
covered.
"What is loaded on which vehicles?" Li Ling looked at the convoy slowly approaching and observed carefully.
"Maybe it's some caravans that circulate between cities. Caravans like this usually transport everything, including food, supplies, and clothing." Heilin replied.
"Since they are just ordinary things, they actually need such a large-scale caravan!" Li Ling said with emotion.[
"If there are frequent exchanges between cities, the two cities will exchange things with each other, just like Yecheng and Mingcheng in the past. Every month, hundreds of caravans transport supplies to each other to meet the needs of the two cities.
Everyone in the city can enjoy it." Hei Lin explained clearly and logically.
"Then the freight charges for these caravans should be quite a lot." Li Ling looked at the people transporting goods, all of them dressed simply. Some even had elderly people. Logically speaking, elderly people should not be doing such heavy and long-distance work.
live.
"What you said is exactly the opposite. Generally, the salary of people who escort goods is quite low. When transporting goods from one city to another like this, each person can only receive three black crystals, three black crystals, and even a decent piece of clothing.
I can't even afford it." Hei Lin said with emotion.
"Is it because the foreman is deducting money?" Li Ling asked doubtfully.
"The foreman can't deduct much? It's just that the boss gives less. In fact, the foreman is also an ordinary laborer. Each foreman can only get ten Mo crystals at most. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is still caused by too much oppression." Hei Lin said.
See this phenomenon clearly.
Li Ling nodded. He knew the hardships those ordinary people lived. Like an empire, there are estimated to be tens of thousands of cities. These tens of thousands of cities are managed by themselves. Who can manage them? It is a general system of enfeoffment, with only one city owner.
He can cover the sky with his hands, just like Ye Tian. He wanted to be an emperor from the beginning. He alone has the final say on all systems.
Moreover, Ye Fei originally ordered not to kill people in the city. But he made an exception himself. Obviously, the monarch is not guilty of the same crime as the common people.
However, in such a cruel world, it is enough to have a mouthful of food. Ordinary people do not seek anything. Living a good life is the key.
Watching the caravan pass by, although there were old, weak, women and children among them, Li Ling also knew that he could not help at all, so he had to walk away with Hei Lin. After all, things like this are not a local problem, but the whole world.
in this way.
After the caravan disappeared on the grassland, Li Ling was not in a good mood. Looking at the sunset, he knew that the day was almost over.
"Which city is ahead? How far is it from us?" Li Ling pointed ahead.
Hei Lin unfolded a map. The map was given by Ming Xiao. Ming Xiao mapped the entire Baiyun County landscape. After Hei Lin found the location of himself and Li Ling, he said: "Songcheng is ahead. Maybe we will encounter each other."
Where are old friends?"
When Hei Lin mentioned Songcheng, Li Ling thought of Wu Bingyue, and immediately frowned and said, "I'd better not meet that witch."
"I haven't said who it is yet? You already know?" Hei Lin couldn't help laughing.
Li Ling knew that he had been tricked by this woman, so he laughed and said, "Heilin, when did you become so bad?" [
"I've been with you for a long time, and I got infected by you." Heilin raised the reins of his horse, urged him, and ran towards Songcheng.
"Okay, just stop here and watch if I catch you and spank you properly." Li Ling also slapped the Fire Linlu on the butt and chased after him.
The two of them walked in tandem and quickly arrived at the gate of Songcheng City. The flow of people at the gate was even busier than that of Yecheng in the past.
"It seems that Songcheng is very lively." Hei Lin looked back and forth.
"It's lively? I think it's very chaotic." Li Ling pointed over there, and there was a big man bullying a child. Li Ling couldn't see it, so he jumped off the Fire Linde and grabbed the big man.
With his arms raised, the big man was about to slap the kid in the face.
"What are you doing?" The big man turned around and said with a stern expression.
"Hey, you're nosy again." Hei Lin got upset and walked over.
Li Ling looked at the big man with a slight smile and said, "You are a chivalrous man. I didn't see him."
"You are a hero, damn, where did you come from..." Originally the big man wanted to break free from Li Ling's arm. Seeing how skinny Li Ling was, he thought he was easy to bully. However, he didn't expect that once he tried to break free, his arm was still stuck.
Li Ling held on tightly. Now the big man knew that he had met a master, and he immediately said with a smile: "Young hero, what's the matter with you?"
"I...I saw you bullying children." Li Ling sighed slightly.
"I...how could I bully a child?" The big man said in denial.
Suddenly the surroundings were full of people, all pointing and pointing.
"That's him. He's the one who bullied me and even robbed my purse." The child pointed at the big man.
"I guess you are planning to snatch the kid's wallet. You are so tall that you can't even make any money." Li Ling said with a contemptuous look.
"How is that possible? I didn't want to rob his wallet. I just thought this kid was cute and wanted to touch his face." How dare the big man admit it.
"Oh... okay then, I also think you are cute, would you like to touch your face?" Li Ling said with a smile.
The big man nodded immediately and said: "Whatever."
"Oh... Then I'm not welcome." Li Ling slapped him in the face, and the left cheek of the big man suddenly became as swollen as a rice dumpling.
The big man suddenly had stars in his eyes. How could he withstand Li Ling's slap? He shook his head several times before he came to his senses and said, "You...how do you hit someone?"
"Did I hit you? I just thought you were cute and touched your face." Li Ling said with a smile.
The big man knew that he had met his nemesis, so he immediately begged for mercy: "Uncle, please spare me."
"Don't beg for mercy from me, beg for mercy from this little brother and see if he will spare you." Li Ling pointed at the child and said.
The big man immediately knelt down and said to the child: "Kid, can you spare uncle? Uncle didn't mean it."
"Humph, you are a big bad guy. If you steal my money bag, I won't let you go." The child said with full backbone.
The big man was immediately furious, but looking at Li Ling's terrifying eyes, he remembered that slap and said immediately: "Little grandpa, please spare me, and I will apologize to you."
Seeing the big man's sincerity, the child couldn't bear it and said, "Okay, I'll spare you this time, but you can't trouble me again next time."
"I definitely don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore." The big man said with a roll of his eyes.
Li Ling knew as soon as he saw the big man that he was going to take revenge on the child after he left. He smiled coldly in his heart and said, "Are you planning to take revenge on your little brother after I leave?"
"I...where am I?" the big man said pretending to be innocent.
"No way? The moment your eyes move, I can tell what you are thinking. No, I have to destroy a pair of your arms." Li Ling said and pinched the big man's hands at the tiger's mouth.
The big man suddenly shouted in pain.
Hei Lin watched happily from the side. Watching Li Ling help the strong and the weak, he had a strange feeling. Perhaps, in this world, few people are willing to do such a thing.
"It hurts, it hurts. Young Master, let go. I really don't dare to settle the score with him." The big man was completely scared this time.
"Ha, if you let me know that you are going to settle accounts with this little brother in the future, I will definitely destroy your arms." After Li Ling let go of the big man's arm, he kicked the big man on the butt, and the big man flew away.
Go out, get up and run away as soon as the dog gnaws shit. (To be continued...)
