Chapter 551 Huh? What conference?
Li Mingde could only send them out of Hezhong Prefecture. Every time they went to a county, local Baichuan Academy students would be responsible for escorting them.
The situation in the entire Hezhong County is similar to that of Hezhong Prefecture.
Cui Sanlun and the Song family were silent.
Hezhong County, which occupies a water conservancy fortress and has fertile fields, is in such a miserable state. Will Shuozhou and Yunzhou further to the north really be okay?
Even though he had firm confidence in the general, Song Da couldn't help but wonder, was it really the right decision to leave Kyoto and go to Yunzhou?
In a low mood all the way, everyone finally stepped into the territory of Shuozhou.
The wheat on both sides gradually turns golden, and when the wind blows, it blows up layers of golden wheat waves.
This is such a vast field, and there are no farmers working there.
Where have everyone gone?
Wudu County borders Shuozhou and Hezhong County.
A small river passes through the county. Every morning, the mist fills the county, making it dreamlike and like a fairyland, hence the name Wudu County.
Because it borders Hezhong County, Wudu County has also contracted some of the bad habits of Hezhong County.
After Yun Guogong occupied Shuozhou, the leader of the Baida Express team came here for the first time.
"Wudu County is the property of the Yan family. The river in the county has also been renamed Liujin River, which means that it is a river flowing with gold. Anyone who uses the water in this river has touched the Yan family's property. Wealth, so we need to compensate the Yan family.”
After Cui Sanlu left Kyoto, he really saw how ridiculous local officials were: "So we also charge water fees here?"
“We used to collect it, but I don’t know if we still collect it now.”
Others in the team complained: "The one who is least willing to leave is Wudu County! The last time I came here, Emma just drank a few sips of river water and extorted three hundred coins from us!"
"You know clearly that we are from Baida Express, but you still dare to rob us! Even Shuozhou Prefecture is not like this!"
"Because the person who serves as the county magistrate here is the second eldest grandson of the Yan family!"
"I heard that he only passed the exam by having someone take the exam for him."
“I don’t know which family I took, but I returned to Shuozhou to be the county magistrate!”
Even if everyone has a bad impression of Wudu County, if they want to go north, this is the only way to go and there is no way around it.
Song Da touched the purse around his waist and showed a wry smile.
No wonder they say that poor people are rich and they need money wherever they go out!
Who would have thought that you have to pay for a sip of river water! I don’t know if the belongings I brought are enough?
A group of people walked towards the county seat and gradually met more and more people.
But the group of people glanced at the caravan and ran away one by one before anyone could call them to stop them.
The captain of Baida Express complained in a low voice: "What are you doing in such a hurry? Could it be that you are sending rice and noodles?"
Teammates laughed: "What a beautiful idea! Shuozhou is so poor and they are still handing out rice and noodles!"
The captain touched his face, feeling a little embarrassed, then his eyes lit up, and he called to a small figure not far away: "Gouwazi! Stop! Come here quickly, I'm going to ask you a few words, and I won't ask you in vain!"
The small figure squatted on the spot and seemed to hesitate for several seconds before running over.
He looked up with a dark face, revealing a toothy mouth, and said slightly, "Cheng Dalang, please hurry up and ask, I'm in a hurry. If I leave late, it will be too late!"
< br>
Captain Cheng Dalang took out a piece of cake from his waist, broke it into half, and handed it to Gou Wazi: "Shuozhou was captured by Yun State, do you know?"
"I know." Gouwazi carefully stuffed the cake into his arms. Cheng Dalang felt slightly relaxed. Since even Gouwazi knew about this, it meant that Duke Yun still had enough control over Shuozhou.
"Has Duke Yun opened a warehouse to store grain? Is the situation in the county still stable?"
There was a trace of urgency on the face of the dog son: "It's safe! It's safe! We haven't suffered any disasters. Why did Duke Yun open a warehouse to stock up on food?"
Cui Sanlun frowned. Gu Nanxi always cared about the people. The situation in Shuozhou was similar to that in Hezhong County. Why didn't she give out porridge?
Doesn’t she have much food in her hands?
Cheng Dalang: "Gouwazi, what are you in a hurry for?"
Gouwazi's eyes were always staring in the direction of the county seat, and he answered the question absentmindedly: "Go to the county seat and attend the grievance meeting."
"What kind of grievance meeting?" This was the first time Cheng Dalang heard of such a meeting.
Gou Wazi briefly explained: "You are from Baida Express, don't you even know this? What Duke Yun proposed was to set up a stage, and whoever wants to go up and talk about it can go up and talk about it!"< br>
Cheng Dalang looked at Gou Wazi with admiration: "You can do it, and you still have the courage to speak in front of so many people?!"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Gou Wazi smiled sheepishly: "I didn't have the guts at first, but Duke Yun gave me too much! As long as you go up to complain, even if you only say two or three sentences, you will be given a bucket of food! Unfortunately, Everyone has only one chance per day. ”
"Is there such a good thing?! Let me go and see it with you!"
Cheng Dalang picked up Gou Wazi and put him on his horse.
Gouwazi still thought it was not fast enough, so he kept urging: "Hurry up! Today's trial is Yan Peipi! There must be a lot of people complaining, and we have to get in line quickly."
"Strict peeling?"
"That's the former county magistrate! Geese are plucked, and people are skinned. We all hated him! Early this morning, Granny Li from the village set out for the county seat. I got up late, so I didn't know Can you catch up?”
Gouwazi's face was full of regret. If he had known it, he would have gone to bed earlier last night. He would have learned how to read the astrology!
Cheng Dalang was amused by Gouwazi's money-obsessed look: "Don't be anxious, no matter what, I will make up for it with this bucket of food for you."
Gouwazi blurted out: "Is this about money?! I'm afraid I won't be able to get on this stage! If you give me a chance to complain, I can complain to him for three days and three nights!"
Cheng Dalang touched the back of his head, his eyes showing confusion. Didn't he say that he came on stage just for money?
How come you would rather get on stage without money? !
Under Gou WaZi's constant urging, everyone finally arrived at the city gate.
The city guard looked at them with an unkind look: "Dismount!"
Cheng Dalang and others dismounted one after another.
The soldiers guarding the city opened the documents belonging to Cheng Dalang and others, and after discovering that they were from Baida Express, they softened their expressions and explained.
"Today there are too many people to complain, and the city can't accommodate them, so no one is allowed to ride in. There is a stable outside the door, and you can store your horses there."
"If you don't need water or grass, then there is no cost. If you need to feed water, it costs one penny a day for a horse."
This price is very cheap. If you go to the inn, you will be charged five cents a day for a horse.
Cheng Dalang and others honestly stored their horses outside the city, and then, under the leadership of Gou Wazi, protected Cui Sanlun and others into the city.
