There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 865

[Chapter 865 Chapter 865, Robbery]

“Girl, I feel that life here in Xiliang is harder than in other places!”

On the way back to the post station, Bishi was a little emotional.

Daohua: “After all, it is the border, and it is definitely incomparable with the inland.” Then, he paused, “Maybe the situation in this place is not bad. The further you go to the northwest, the worse the weather conditions will be. , and was always invaded by the Xiliao people, that day was really in dire straits.”

After seeing a grain store, Daohua went in to have a look.

Most of the shops sell coarse grains, refined grains are very rare, and rice is rare.

Daohua asked about the price, perhaps because of the low grain output in Xiliang, the grain here is at least 20% more expensive than other places.

After visiting several towns in a row, Daohua was not interested in getting out of the car. The supplies here are very scarce. Apart from buying some grain, she can only buy some beef and mutton from the herdsmen.

As for vegetables, there are only pickled vegetables and dried vegetables in winter here, and there are few choices, the only common ones are cabbage and radishes.

There was nothing to see and visit, so Daohua made the team speed up.

There are many mountains in Xiliang, and the further you go west, the more uneven the ground becomes. After a day’s carriage ride, the whole person is about to fall apart.

Daohua was worried that Gu Jian’s body would not be able to bear it, so she stopped to rest for half an hour at noon every day, and asked everyone to get out of the car and move their bodies.

Time has entered December in a blink of an eye, and at this moment, Daohua and his party have arrived in the hinterland of central Xiliang, where the Xiliang capital is located.

The weather was getting colder and colder. After passing through Liangdu, Daohua didn’t go shopping in the city, but asked Cao Chuan to buy some daily necessities.

After passing through Liangdu and passing through two acropolises, you will arrive at Ganzhouwei.

In the following days, except for getting out of the car to exercise, the convoy was on their way at a high speed. At this moment, everyone wanted to arrive at Ganzhouwei earlier and take a good rest.

One day, the convoy stopped on the side of the road to rest as usual. Suddenly, a group of bandits with weapons poured out from the nearby mountain.

There were more than a hundred bandits, and they rushed out with a splash, which shocked everyone.

But soon, the guards calmed down, part of them went to watch the carriage, and the rest went up to resist the bandits.

The moment Daohua heard the sound of killing, she jumped off the carriage and ran directly to Gu Jian’s carriage.

Mei Lan Mei Ju, Dong Li Cai Ju, and several Jin Lingwei left by Xiao Yeyang surrounded the carriage.

In the carriage, Dao Hua wanted to comfort Gu Jian and tell him not to worry, but she silently swallowed the words on her master’s calmer face than hers.

“Concubine Shizi, all the bandits have been taken down by the guards.”

Hearing Mei Lan’s voice, Daohua was stunned for a moment: “So fast?” As she spoke, she quickly lifted the curtain of the car and looked out.

The gangster, who had been vicious just a moment ago, was lying on the snow ground roaring and rolling in pain.

“Are they here to be funny?”

Daohua was a little speechless, but soon frowned.

I saw that the gangsters were all in ragged clothes, each of them was skinny, shivering because of the cold weather, among them was a child who was seven or eight years old.

At this moment, a gangster yelled at the guards, and the guards immediately raised their sabers to kill them.

“Don’t hurt people!”

Daohua stopped her, seeing the guards put down their swords, and said again: “Bring people here, I want to question you.

” The man came to the carriage.

Daohua looked at the man: “Why do you want to rob us?” The

rough man Wang Wu sneered: “Why, of course I can’t survive. It’s cold today and I can’t find food. Seeing you This fat sheep is passing by, so it must rush up and have a bite.”

Said, with regret on his face.

“It’s a pity, the fat sheep’s skin is thick, and it knocked our teeth.”

Daohua asked again: “You are king here, and you often rob passers-by?”

Wang Wu glanced at the carriage. The people who didn’t get inside probably hesitated for a while because of Dao Hua’s voice of ‘don’t hurt anyone’ just now, and said: “You are unlucky, you are the first batch.”

Dao Hua: “You just came?”

Wang Wu diao diao There was an ‘um’ sound.

Daohua was silent for a while: “Tell me the reason why you became bandits. If the reason is pertinent, I might consider letting you go.” Wang Wu’s   eyes

lit up, and he said eagerly, “You mean what you say?”

He didn’t want to rob the convoy, but he couldn’t help it. The tribe had been out of food for several days, and the weather was so cold, so he could only give it a go.

As soon as he fought, he knew that he had encountered a tough problem. He thought he was doomed, but he didn’t expect it to turn around now.

Dong Li glared at Wang Wu: “Respond carefully.”

Wang Wu had no choice but to talk about how the Wang clan fled here.

“We are from Kangdu Town of Jinweiwei. This year, when winter just started, the people from Xiliao came here. Because the soldiers from the guard station came too late, the people from Xiliao slaughtered the whole town.” At

this point, Wang Wu’s eyes were filled with tears . I couldn’t help becoming red, choked up a bit, and said again: “Fortunately, the husband of our clan noticed something was wrong in advance, and took us away overnight, so we saved our lives.” In the

carriage, Daohua, Gu Jian, Doctor Ge was shocked by what happened in Tuzhen.

I knew that Xiliang was not peaceful, but I didn’t expect that there would be a massacre of the city.

“You bastard, what did Jin Weiwei’s commander do to eat, and let the people of Xiliao slaughter the whole town?!” Gu Jian was so angry.

Hearing Gu Jian’s furious voice, Wang Wu was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect that there were other people in the carriage. Thinking of the extraordinaryness of this team, he thought for a while and continued,

“Actually, there have been many people from Xiliao over the years. Invading us, burning, killing, looting and doing everything, things like Tuzhen Tucun happen every year.”

Daohua: “Nobody cares?”

Wang Wu sneered: “The guards in Xiliang are all As a display, there are very few who can really kill the enemy, and most of them can only be killed when they meet Xiliao people.”

Daohua: “Isn’t there still a frontier army?”

Wang Wu: “I will not fight against the frontier army.” Got it.”

Daohua was silent for a while: “Is everything you said true?”

Wang Wu straightened his waist: “If there is a false sentence in what I just said, it will be a thunderbolt. If it is not desperate , who would be a bandit? Nine out of ten bandits in Xiliang go up the mountain because they can’t survive.”

Dao Hua looked at Gu Jian: “Master, how do you think we should deal with them?”

Gu Jian didn’t want to interfere : “You can figure it out.”

Dao Hua thought for a while: “Being a bandit is not the right way after all, I will leave you two carts of food later, enough for you to survive this winter.”

Wang Wu was really stunned, he didn’t Thinking of actually encountering such a good thing as a pie in the sky.

Daohua continued: “I will also give you a few bags of seeds. Xiliang lacks everything, but there is no shortage of land. As long as you plow the land honestly and sow seeds next spring, it will not be difficult to survive.”

Wang Wu shook it off. I slapped myself twice to make sure I wasn’t dreaming, so I stammered and asked, “Did you really give me food and seeds?”

Daohua said, “I don’t give you anything for free, and my people will often pass this road in the future. Let me know that you are still here, or continue to do robbery in other places, and I will send troops to destroy you as soon as possible.”

Wang Wu quickly shook his head: “No, definitely not, this time I brought someone out to rob you, and I did it secretly without telling the clan’s husband, if he found out, he would definitely punish us with clan rules , There will never be a next time.”

Daohua: “I hope you keep your word.” Saying so, he called Gu Yu, “Leave them one bag of wheat seeds, two bags of corn seeds, and three carts of coarse grains.”

Corn has low requirements on soil quality and is resistant to cold and drought, so it is very suitable for planting in Xiliang.

Gu Yu asked people to remove three carts of grain and put them on the side of the road, and personally handed the wheat and corn seeds to Wang Wu: “Seeds are hard to come by, so don’t let my girl down.”
