Chapter 256 The family god is so arrogant
Xie Yuchuan’s expression changed, and Zhang Dayi became nervous next to him.
"General?"
Xie Yuchuan shook his head slightly, indicating that he was fine, but the look in his eyes was deep.
“The family god asked me how many stones of caramel are enough.”
There was a slight gasp, and even Zhang Dayi felt that the Xie family’s god was real, and he didn’t know how to describe it.
Xie Yuchuan didn't ask any questions. As soon as he opened his mouth, the Xie family's gods were measured based on stone. Isn't this too pampering?
Xie Yuchuan was also surprised. Sweet things are always hard to come by, not to mention that he had personally tasted the candies given by the family god. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they were tributes.
As soon as the family god came out, it was stone...
Xie Yuchuan once again experienced the "arrogance" of his family god in some aspects.
"The Tian family is testing this for the first time, and has no bottom in mind. If the general has enough time, he can win over him step by step. There is not much time left for the general at the moment. If the gods don't mind, the general might as well frighten him in one fell swoop."
The Tian family has raised them all these years. The people in the fort who are responsible for growing the fields and making sugar have worked hard all year round and are strong and healthy.
Nowadays, there is a shortage of manpower. In addition to the yamen soldiers in Yucheng, the people from the Tian family are just right.
Just as Xie Yuchuan was thinking about how to reply, Tu Hua's voice sounded again.
"I will prepare 100 stones for you first, is that enough?"
Tu Hua walked around the wholesale market and her eyes were dazzled. She had never seen so many categories. The boss is also enthusiastic, and he has a bag full of various tasting items.
Assorted sugar, coconut sugar, tangerine peel sugar, halva sugar, toffee... everything is available, even the prawn cakes, her favorite as a child, she actually found the original one, she couldn't help but Ordered a box for myself.
Carrying a bag of samples, Xie Yuchuan didn't open his mouth for a long time. Tu Hua thought that he was embarrassed to ask her for the quantity, so she simply prepared more.
The next time I come here to purchase a large amount of goods, I still don’t know the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.
Daliang, under the protective wall of Wuli Fort.
Xie Yuchuan's ears buzzed!
100 stones? !
The family god...
Do you know the weight of these 100 stones?
Zhang Dayi saw his expression changed drastically and remained silent for a moment, not wanting to disturb him. It was rare to see the expressions of the six sons of the Xie family change so dramatically.
Zhang Dayi was very curious, what was the oracle he received?
Soon, the sky darkened and it was no longer suitable to continue working. The officer was holding the gong and banging it from beginning to end.
Everyone calls it a day.
The oil lamp is lit.
Under the dim light.
After hearing the family god's final reply, Zhang Dayi and others just covered their mouths and shouted slowly!
Lowering his voice, Zhang Dayi’s voice trembled.
"How many, how much? 100 stones?!!!"
Xie Yuchuan, who had regained his composure, clicked his chin slightly: "Sir, you heard me right."
Zhang Dayi couldn't stand it anymore .
He stood up quickly, rubbed his hands unconsciously, and paced back and forth in the thatched hut.
Xie Wuying, Xie Wenjie, and other Xie family guards were excited when they heard this number, but they were not as deep as Zhang Dayi thought.
Seeing the old gentleman pacing back and forth in the room not knowing what to do, with a thoughtful look on his face, I felt puzzled.
Xie Wenjie is still young and cannot understand.
Xie Wuying has always been a person who doesn't feel ashamed to ask questions. If you don't understand something, just ask his sixth brother.
"Brother Six, sir, why is he so excited?"
Xie Yuchuan glanced at him and said lightly: "Sir, maybe you didn't expect so much."
"Indeed, we didn't expect the family god either. He is actually willing to give us so many candies. It is right for him to be excited." He would also be very excited.
Sweets are precious. He has tasted them and never forgets them, but he dares not eat more. If...
I can’t imagine how happy he would be with so much sugar. Xie Wenjie looked at his good brother, then at his sixth brother Xie Yuchuan, and then at Zhang Hanlin whose expression was changing. He always felt that what his sixth brother and his husband were thinking was not as simple as Tong Hezhi said.
After a while, Zhang Dayi calmed down and returned to Xie Yuchuan.
Think again and again, and finally made up his mind: "General, if the gods of the Xie family can take care of everything like this, the future of the Xie family... may I say more? Opportunities in this world are rare, and the general has already made plans."
Xie Yuchuan raised his eyes to look at Zhang Dayi, and saw Master Hanlin's eyes filled with deep meaning.
Seeing the big from the small, Zhang Dayi accidentally caught a glimpse of the sky.
But Xie Yuchuan didn't know where the old gentleman's aura was going, so he just nodded lightly.
"Yuchuan understands."
Zhang Dayi's face relaxed, Xie Jia Liulang should understand.
Having such an opportunity, it would be a shame to live in a corner of the North and do nothing.
Zhang Dayi thought Xie Yuchuan understood his hint, but Xie Yuchuan was not sure whether Zhang Hanlin, who had read the books of sages all his life, meant to persuade him to join the Ming Dynasty, or... something else.
The former is slightly more likely, and the latter may scare the old gentleman.
Xie Yuchuan left the topic ambiguously and only talked about the Tian family's goodwill.
I didn’t respond to Shopkeeper Shimoda’s kindness before, so I was just waiting for the real talker of the Tian family to show up.
A woman who can take charge of the affairs of such a large family is not an ordinary person.
Even if Xie Yuchuan associates with the Tian family, he must personally see how Tian Su'e, the eldest daughter of the Tian family, behaves before discussing the next step.
He slowly thought about it in his mind and came up with two plans.
One is to use his and Han Qiguang's manpower as the main force; the other is to unite external forces such as Xiong Jiushan and the Tian family to the maximum extent before carrying out the task.
Both plans require the cooperation of one of them.
Xiong Jiushan.
Xie Yuchuan rested in the thatched house for a while and went for a walk next to the house outside the door.
Looking from afar, Xiong Jiushan was taking Cheng Ye and other officials to wait for extra meals by the campfire.
The Tian family is indeed kind and sincere.
The prisoners’ dinner was served with soup, cakes and vegetables for the first time after traveling for so long.
There were exclamations of joy all around, and it took a long time to quiet down.
Xie Yuchuan stood on one side with his hands behind his back.
Xiong Jiushan is a person who is round on the outside and square on the inside. It is difficult to change his true inner thoughts.
From the several times he was summoned by Xiong Jiushan to study the Panlongling bandit disaster, it was obvious that Xiong Jiushan was not interested in taking risks to suppress the bandits, but was more inclined to get over safely at the minimum cost.
He lowered his eyes and sneered.
On this errand, just because they have the Xie family in the team, there is no way that the journey of exile can be peaceful.
With Xiong Jiushan's caution, he felt that the other party should have known about it for a long time.
It is inevitable that the two sides will encounter each other, why not turn passivity into initiative?
Xie Yuchuan raised his head and looked at Xiong Jiushan again.
He had to think of a way to make Xiong Jiushan use his manpower this time.
Beside the bonfire, Xiong Jiushan seemed to feel something. He raised his head and met Xie Yuchuan's gaze.
His dark eyes darkened. The Tian family sent someone to contact Xie Yuchuan, wondering what they were discussing.
The Tian family returned disappointed, and Tian Su'e's anxiety was obvious.
No one knows better than him what skills Xie Yuchuan is hiding now.
