Speaking of which, since the team carrying canned pears left Lishi County, Zhao Chen's subordinates vaguely felt that someone was secretly spying on br         /

But they did not make any statement. They just checked the patrols in the team to maintain order, and let the porters team each twenty people follow their team. After walking for a few more days, those people stopped following after Mengmen Pass.

After crossing the Yellow River, it is Suizhou, and after crossing the entire Suizhou, it is the boundary of Neizhou. And Ningshuo County is not far ahead.

It is not easy to travel across the entire Suizhou. Walking on this plateau, there are also mountains and rivers.

After crossing the Yellow River for another three days, another rolling river appeared in front of everyone.

"Why is there another river here?" Many people have been here for the first time. They originally thought that the Yellow River I saw two days ago was already the largest and only big river in their area. Unexpectedly, they saw another big river after a few days.

"Why is this called Shuoshui? It flows from here and flows to Yanshui County in Yanzhou. There it merges into the Yellow River, opposite the boundary of Xizhou, your Hedong Road." A servant on a horse happened to pass by them at this time, and then spoke out to help the porters solve their doubts.

"So that's it." The porters felt that they had gained knowledge. What about Yanzhou and Xizhou. They had probably heard of it a little before. As for the specific location, there was really no concept. At this time, when he heard this person say this to them, the originally vague map in his mind immediately became much clearer.

"You are so knowledgeable." A porter sighed.

"People who walk outside all year round don't know how to make it happen." The servant smiled and headed forward again. There were several wooden cars in front of him, and I don't know what problems he encountered.

"Why don't you leave again?" The man ran forward and saw that there seemed to be no problem here. These people were just one by one and didn't know what they were doing.

"I just saw a few hares, right in this grass." A thin porter said excitedly. After walking outside for so many days, eating dry food all day long. When they saw the meat, they couldn't walk.

"Are you all pretending to be bean dregs in your mind?" Unexpectedly, the person who has always been kind and easy to talk to has changed his face at this time: "A few hares have caused you to mess up. The good team is broken into two pieces. There is only one team in front. If something happens to them, can you afford it?"

After a few scoldings, the man didn't stop for a moment. He swung the whip and hurriedly chased the team ahead.

Those porters who were busy chasing rabbits saw this scene, looked at me and I looked at you, quickly pushed up the car and chased the team in front.

Fortunately, nothing happened this time. Those hares were really just hares that appeared on the roadside by chance. They were not traps set by gangsters. Otherwise, these people would really regret their intestines.

During the night's rest, Zhao Chen and his subordinates finally told me about the incident that they were staring at all the way a few days ago.

I didn't tell them this, because I was afraid that they would be frightened and distracted. But according to the current situation, it would be impossible not to say it. The porters they found this time really have no experience.

On the way, they didn't know how to follow the team in front of them and ran to catch rabbits. They were so negligent about preventing them. If there were any evil people who were willing to cheat, it would be better to cheat each other.

Moreover, they have to guard against other evil people, but also wild animals.

The wild beasts in the mountains are also spitting out, often lurking and peeping around the paths where humans walk. If they meet groups of people moving together, they will not show up. If they meet those who are behind, it depends on whether they are hungry at that moment and whether they are in a good mood.

The porters who made mistakes were said again at this time, and they all had red faces and their heads drooped, and they could not say a word of refutation.

When you go out, you are most afraid of making mistakes. This not only concerns their own wealth and life, but also the lives of those who are traveling with you. If the team of twenty people in front of you made any mistakes today, how should they face the families of those people after they return to Lishi County?

After this night, these people walked on the road with a little more rigorous and orderly than in the previous few days. Not to mention rabbits, even the strange frontier scenery that appeared before everyone else was in the mood to appreciate.

Ningshuo County is also a border area. There are still ruins of the Great Wall of the Qin Dynasty, but the Great Wall is mostly built of loess gravel. It is old and has long been dilapidated.

After passing that Great Wall, there is a big desert behind the vast grassland. There is no fertile farmland around the desert and the population is very sparse.

Judging from the map, although this place is within the shape of the Yellow River, it does not have a natural pass that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and its population is very sparse, so it is difficult to station the army and is often invaded by famous grasslands outside the pass.

After arriving at Ningshuo County, the porters who came from Lishi County couldn't help feeling a little sad. The place in front of them was so poor.

They really don’t have much knowledge. They have never left Lishi County several times in their lives, and they have gone out a few times, not far away. They have never seen any real wealth and honor, but they have never seen such poverty in front of them.

"Mr. Lang? Where are you from? Do you want soap? I have soap for sale at home." A seven or eight-year-old boy ran around their long team.

"Is cashmere there?" asked a porter. He also saw that this place was so poor, thinking that the price of cashmere might be very cheap. After receiving the 60 cents of hard-earned money, he might be able to buy some.

"The cashmere has been taken away by the merchants in our city, and the husband from Chang'an City wants it." The child saw that someone was paying attention to him, and immediately became even tighter and chattered:

"Soap is not available all the time. I went out of the city two days ago and happened to collect some from a few herders. I haven't taken any action yet. If you can afford the price, I will sell it to you."

"Someone is here to collect the soap?" the porter said curiously.

"Cashmere and soap are always collected." The child grinned and said with a smile: "Do you want jerky? The jerky here is the cheapest."

"Where is the sheepskin?" someone next to him asked. Luo Sanlang didn't want to make sheepskin boots. If there is a cheap, good sheepskin, it should be appropriate to collect some back.

"The sheepskin in our county is also accepted. It is said that the saints want to use them with soldiers to make boots." The little baby sucked his nose and replied.

"Even people accept it, why are you still so poor in this place?" Someone who was unrestrained asked directly at this time.

"..." The child wiped his nose with the back of his hand and said, "What's the solution? Our family lives in the city and there is no place to shepherd sheep."

"That's true." The person who spoke was a little embarrassed, so he said, "We have no money now. When we get the wages, we will go and see your soap and jerky."

"Oh, okay, I'll be here at the city gate all day long. You can come here to find me when the time comes." The child said happily.

The Zhao family members who came from Liangzhou City had arrived in Ningshuo County two days ago. At this time, as soon as their team from Lishi County entered the city, someone came to meet them immediately.

After successfully handing over the goods, all the porters who came here this time got their own wages. According to the previous agreement, each person had 60 cents. Except for a few people who accidentally dropped the can on the road, the others had a penny.

The few that were thrown out, each can was deducted for twenty cents. For the porters, this was already a great sum of money, but in fact, it was not even deducted back the capital. The main loss was borne by the Zhao family caravan itself.

The porters also know that after all, everyone thinks that the Zhao family’s caravan is good and kind, and does not make things difficult for them, such as the poor. If the Zhao family still finds a porter in the future, many people who have come here this time will definitely sign up.

Those who took over canned pears set off from Ningshuo County the next day and headed west to Liangzhou City.

These porters who came from Lishi County had to rest for two days in the county, rest and buy goods. The Zhao family was responsible for the same expenses for the past two days. The Zhao family who returned to Lishi County with them in two days was much more than before.

These people originally planned to stay in Ningshuo County to receive the goods and transport the canned pears produced in Lishi County to Liangzhou City in batches. However, after the joint, they also knew that Zhao Chen had changed his mind. In addition to the first batch of these canned pears, the canned foods in the back will have to wait until all the cans are ready before transporting them back together.

In this way, instead of working in Ningshuo County, they might as well go to Lishi County to help.

On this side of Lishi County, next to the canning workshop, the car rental company that originally occupied a large area was squeezed aside pitifully. Many cars didn’t even have a place to shelter from the rain. At night, they covered them with straw curtains to block the dew.
