Chapter 1987 An unexpected surprise
The mud legs are mud legs. I am afraid that I only know that the brick kiln can burn blue bricks or pottery.
Meng Hong scolded Qin Sanlang in his heart, and almost couldn't help but rushed in and said to him: Fool, stop making green bricks, instead make porcelain!
But he endured it.
It's no longer right to eavesdrop. If he rushes in to disturb the situation, Uncle Jiang will beat him to death.
General Jiang's personal soldiers came over, grabbed his hand, pulled it, and signaled him with his eyes to retreat quickly and stop eavesdropping, otherwise they, the personal soldiers, would also suffer.
Meng Hong slapped the soldier's hand away with his palm, stepped back, still far away, and stood waiting five meters away from the tent.
In the camp, two deeds have been written, written by Uncle Cao himself.
After finishing writing, they showed it to Qin Sanlang and General Jiang. After they had no objection, the three of them wrote their names on the two deeds and pressed their fingerprints.
"It's done, one for each person. Take it. If you have any disputes in the future, you can come to me as the guarantor." General Jiang gave the two deeds to Uncle Cao and Qin Sanlang respectively.
He then asked Qin Sanlang: "The Qingniu Mountain Villa contains the name of the Gu family. Do you really want to leave something for yourself?"
Qin Sanlang shook his head: "Ms. Gu is very hardworking. She has to take care of the general affairs of the guard and take care of her relatives. She deserves all these."
General Jiang said: "If a man doesn't leave any money for entertainment, aren't you afraid that others will say you are a softie?"
Qin Rufan, he had heard this nickname before, and he had even made Qin Sanlang angry because of it, thinking that he had embarrassed their soldiers.
Qin Sanlang shook his head: "Don't be afraid. On the way west, it was all thanks to the small subsidies from the Gu family and the Yue family that my relatives could reach the northwest safely. I must remember my kindness and not be ungrateful."
After saying that, he smiled, quite proudly.
Well, General Jiang was convinced, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Okay, I'm honest enough. Since I used my wife's money, I have to admit it. Don't be like some shameless literati who spent my wife's money to pass the exam." It is extremely shameless to divorce people after they have achieved fame. They should all be castrated and sent to the palace as servants to prevent them from losing face as men!"
These words made Uncle Cao have a new understanding of General Jiang... This General Jiang is a completely different person from Xu You. He is very open-minded and has a chivalrous heart. He is good to women, unlike some Like generals, they look down upon women and only regard them as attachments or playthings.
I also thought that General Jiang had two sons and one daughter, all of whom were of marriageable age. I wonder if the Cao family could get married to one of them?
No, no, no!
Uncle Cao quickly rejected this idea.
The current situation is still unclear. Who knows who will win in the future? It is better for the Cao family not to marry the Jiang family and the Xu family first, lest something unexpected happens in the future and the Cao family will die without a place to bury them.
It is safest to hold on to food and build a foundation on food. No matter who is the master of the world in the future, they must eat and use food to stabilize the world.
I have to say that Uncle Cao is very smart and knows what is best for the Cao family.
General Jiang is right, Qin Qianhu is indeed a rare and magnanimous man. Uncle Cao echoed.
But in his heart, he felt that General Jiang had exaggerated too much. Qin Sanlang was only in his early twenties, and he had a long way to go. Now he felt that he should repay his wife, but in ten or eight years, he would start to dislike her and think about divorce. His wife married another man. Men were like this. He had seen it all too often.
He also asked General Jiang: "When can Qin Qianhu take me to Changliangwei to get potato seeds?" Zhuangzi in Qingniu Mountain was quite big and had a mountain with him, so he bought thirty carts of potato seeds. The Qin couple also had to ensure that the thirty carts of potato seeds were in good condition and could germinate and survive.
General Jiang said: "There is still something going on here at the Du Chonggou Camp. He needs to stay for a few more days. If Uncle Cao is not in a hurry, how about waiting for a few more days?"
There are several weapon rooms in the camp here, which are used to make weapons and the iron-saving long knives used by Qin Sanlang. However, the long knives made by their master are a bit brittle, so they have to let Qin Sanlang stay. , to solve this problem.
But its better not to talk to Uncle Cao about things like the new knife.
Although Uncle Cao came here with a personal letter from the Marquis, the Marquis said in the letter that Uncle Cao had shown goodwill to them and that the toxins in cassava could be removed and turned into food. He had promised not to do anything to them. The people in Beijing said that they could safely sell the potato seeds to him.
It was with Xu You's consent that General Jiang allowed Qin Sanlang to do this deal.
Uncle Cao said: "Don't worry, the potato seeds are nothing compared to the war here. I'll wait a few more days until Qin Qianhu is free, and then go back with him. I just have to disturb Jiang in the camp. General, Ive been here for a few days, please dont dislike General Jiang.
General Jiang smiled and said: "That's no problem, as long as Uncle Cao doesn't mind the bitter cold here in the camp."
He also told Uncle Cao that there would often be long-distance attacks with bandits here, and there would also be poisonous insects. There were traps in some places in the camp, and there were places dedicated to breeding poisonous insects. Uncle Cao had to be careful, and he couldnt go there. Don't go anywhere.
Uncle Cao was a man of good character, so naturally he would not go to places he shouldn't go and offend others, so he agreed and said in a sensible way: "General, I came all the way here and am a little tired. Can you please let me go?" Someone take me to the camp to rest?"
General Jiang shouted outside: "Come here, take Uncle Cao to a tent with a new fire pit to rest. Don't let the charcoal fire get to Uncle Cao."
Yes. The soldiers came in and took Uncle Cao away.
Qin Sanlang did not stay long. After thanking General Jiang, he said goodbye and left.
But not long after he left the camp, he was grabbed by Meng Hong who suddenly came out: "Brother Qin, are you done?"
Qin Sanlang had no expression on his face. He just looked at him and asked, "Brother Meng, what do you want from me?"
"Look at what you said, I can't come to you if nothing happens?" Meng Hong had a smile on his face. He originally wanted to be more affectionate, but he didn't like shaving, so his face was covered with beards and beards. He grinned, A face with only a beard and thick teeth looks a bit scary.
And Qin Sanlang didn't fall for the trick. Meng Hong couldn't pretend anymore after he saw that he had laughed for a long time but the boy still had no expression on his face, and asked directly: "I heard that your chief Liang Wei wants to bake green bricks to sell? Don't. I want to deny it, but I overheard it outside the camp.
You are so confident in eavesdropping.
"Brother Qin, why are you so stupid? With such craftsmen at your disposal, how can you make bricks and porcelain? Do you know how expensive porcelain is? It costs you to burn tens of thousands of bricks for one piece of porcelain. "
Meng Hong gave Qin Sanlang a lecture with a look full of hatred, and said commandingly: "Don't be stupid, don't burn broken green bricks, burn porcelain and sell it, you can make more money."
He also warned Qin Sanlang: "If you dare to burn green bricks and sell them, I will lead my troops to smash your green bricks. There is no more profitable business in the world, so you should do the second-class business. Do you understand?!"
He spoke so indignantly, as if his business had been harmed by someone, that Qin Sanlang had to ask: "Brother Meng wants to be a part of it?"
