Chapter 297 It’s not easy for anyone to come
"When I get back, I will definitely look for wormwood and wash it off to get rid of bad luck."
"It's a big winter day, where is the wormwood?"
"Why not? There must be mugwort balls in the drugstore."
"It's true, I will buy it when the time comes."
Everyone was talking a lot, and their faces were full of joy and excitement.
Bai Youfu: "Then you go on, I'll go out for a while."
Anyway, he has already said it in advance, and if someone is careless, he won't care.
"Steward, what are you doing?"
Bai Youfu didn't answer, and without looking back, he raised his hand and waved.
Wengcheng has famous Weng jars. He went to pick some and then went back to show his aunt to play with.
Although Baitao didn't give instructions, the people in Taohua Village were used to it, and they would feel uncomfortable if they didn't bring something to Baitao when they went out.
Every time I go out to bring something for Baitao, the villagers are even happier when they see Baitao happy.
Although the caravan did not talk about leaving Wengcheng the day after tomorrow, because they were discussing it in the courtyard of the inn, they were happy and excited, so some of the words were a little louder.
Therefore, some stranded guests in the inn also heard it.
Regarding this matter, people in the inn had different opinions.
Most people don't believe that once this war starts, it will be so easy to stop.
Especially for merchants, many armies focus on searches, confiscating things and fines are light.
It can't be done well. It's not surprising that a strong man is caught on the road to do logistics for the army, wash clothes and raise horses, or even rush to the battlefield to serve as a target.
"I think maybe what they said is true. The people living in that courtyard are the Baijiabao caravan." The speaker looked expectant.
Someone next to him said disdainfully: "What's wrong with the Baijiapu caravan? They are just a little more powerful than ordinary caravans, but that's the army in front. The armies of Liang Guo and Qi Guo are fighting. They are fighting hard. Who will come?" It doesn’t work. ”
Someone echoed: "Yes, no matter how powerful a caravan is, it cannot be compared to the army of the imperial court, let alone the armies of the two countries."
Some people agree, and some people disagree.
Although some people didn't say anything, their hearts were partial to the Baijiabao caravan.
Those who had high hopes for the Baijiapu caravan quietly packed their things and prepared to follow.
When the time comes, follow the Baijiabao caravan. If they can really leave, then they will leave quickly.
If the Baijiapu caravan is stopped and they turn around, having the Baijiapu caravan in front will give them time to escape.
Bai Youfu and others also knew the thoughts of the people in the inn. In the face of overt and covert inquiries, although they did not say much, they also expressed their intention to leave Wengcheng the day after tomorrow.
Anyway, even if they don't say anything, people in the inn will know when they pack their things tomorrow.
Many merchants gathered together in small groups for safety. They sent a message to Bai Youfu to pay their respects, and planned to leave Wengcheng with the Baijiabao caravan.
"You don't need to ask us. If you want to leave at that time, just go together."
Bai Youfu smiled: "It's the New Year now. You guys have been running around a lot this year and you must be homesick. It's good to go home early to spend time with your family."
Although these words didn't say anything, they revealed a lot of information. If you were not sure, how could you say that you should go home and be with your family.
So when people who were originally worried heard this, they were immediately relieved and overjoyed.
"Thank you, Manager Bai, for letting us go together."
Bai Youfu smiled: "You guys are so polite."
Although some people sneered at this, they were also silently paying attention to the situation on the battlefield ahead. the next day.
Bai Youfu and his party packed up the carriages and trucks, and the battlefield ahead was still in full swing.
As a result, there was an immediate one-sided situation in Wengcheng regarding the news that spread yesterday, with everyone accusing Bai Youfu and his party of being a liar.
The people staying in the inn also complained a lot, but they only dared to complain in private, not in front of Bai Youfu and his party.
After all, it's hard to say whether they can leave the city or not, but if they offend the Baijiabao caravan, they will definitely be dealt with.
When Bai Youfu and his party faced the questioning glances in the inn, they turned a deaf ear.
Just kidding, what do these people know? Since our aunt said she would take us home, she will definitely take us home.
Bai Youfu hummed in his heart while waiting for news to come from the other end of the communicator. Is this the feeling when everyone is drunk and I am alone? !
It wasn't until evening that the sound of Ming Jin withdrawing his troops came from the battlefield ahead.
In ancient times, wars were inseparable from "gold" and "drums".
When ordering the army to move and attack, beat the drum, that is, beat the drum and attack; when ordering the army to stop or retreat, beat the zheng, that is, ring the gold and withdraw the troops.
Therefore, even if you can't see the battlefield, you can still judge the situation ahead from the sound.
The people in Wengcheng waited for almost a whole day, and as a result, they ridiculed the Baijiabao caravan even more.
"It makes no sense, these people..."
Bai Youfu raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Dacang, who came back angrily from outside, and said, "What do you care about what those people do."
"But they said this about us. It's OK to see them tomorrow, but they shamelessly follow us..."
The more Bai Dacang thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more he spoke, the angrier he became: "We never asked them to believe it, nor did we ask them to follow us, but we actually talked nonsense and said we were bragging..."
"Didn't my aunt say that the world is so big, there are always some people who are just here to make up the numbers." Bai Youfu said slowly: "You don't care what they do."
Seeing what Bai Dacang wanted to say, Bai Youfu asked: "Have you packed your things?"
Bai Dacang paused when his words came to his lips and nodded: "It's packed."
"The horses have been fed and the wagons have been checked to make sure they won't fall off the chain tomorrow."
"That's okay." Bai Youfu said: "Let everyone go to bed early tonight. We will set off tomorrow when the news comes tomorrow."
"My aunt said she is waiting for us to go back and eat delicious food."
"Hey." Bai Dacang responded with a smile, forgetting that he was still angry just now, and turned around to check the carriage and pack truck.
Although the people in the Baijiapu caravan knew that they would leave tomorrow, they did not relax at all. Those who should be on duty at night still stayed on duty at night.
Because of this, I caught a few people sneaking around and trying to steal things in the middle of the night.
This was not the first time that the Baijiabao caravan encountered such a situation. They were too lazy to take the person to the officials in Wengcheng, and just broke his hands and feet and threw him out of the inn without saying a word.
When it was just dawn, Bai Youfu and others, who were used to getting up early, were already active in the yard.
Bai Youfu had just punched twice, and when he was about to punch a third time, there was a shock in his waist.
He stopped quickly, looked solemn, and hurried back to the room.
"Just called twice today?"
"Him?"
Bai Dacang and others were wondering. They quickly thought of something. Their eyes lit up and they all said in unison: "There's news."
Today's update is sent to
