Chapter 2004 Sorry
Qin Sanlang was the first to break the silence and asked: "But something happened to your eldest brother?"
Zhong Yu nodded, shook his head, remained silent for a while, looked at Qin Sanlang, and asked sadly: "Brother Qin, do you think I shouldn't have come to the northwest in the first place?"
If you just stay at home and be an idle playboy, you won't have to face the cruel reality.
Qin Sanlang frowned and asked, "Do you want to go back? If you want to go back, you can go back now."
Zhong Yu shook his head: "I can't go back, my eldest brother asked me to stay... He said that I have to leave a root for the Zhong family, and I am that root."
He murmured again: "Now I don't even have a chance to go back."
Qin Sanlang frowned and asked, "Is the situation in the capital really so bad?"
Zhong Yu nodded: "That's what my elder brother told me, and he asked me to follow you closely. He said that only you can help me at the critical moment."
What this says...
Qin Sanlang said: "Don't worry, I won't watch you die."
He comforted him again: "Don't worry too much. Your eldest brother has been an official for so many years. I heard he is no worse than Mr. Ming. Even if it is more difficult now, he will be fine in the future. The Zhong family will not fall."
After hearing this, Zhong Yu's eyes turned red and he felt very sorry for Qin Sanlang... But for the sake of his family and his eldest brother, he had to lie to him.
Thats right.
He finally compromised, stood on the side of his eldest brother, said these half-truths, acted out this scene, and deceived Qin Sanlang.
Look, he is actually no different from those cunning civil servants. He is also good at acting, and he is also good at doing stupid things.
He hates himself like this, but the eldest brother said...Qin Sanlang will be a big bargaining chip for the Zhong family. Hold on to him, and when the time comes, make good use of it, and the Zhong family will be able to gain great wealth.
However, he could tell from the words of his eldest brother that if it went to this extent, Qin Sanlang might die, and many other people would die too. In order for the Zhong family to survive, his eldest brother was asking him to... kill people.
Kill his brothers who are kind to him!
Brother Qin, thank you. Zhong Yu cried again, but he quickly wiped away his tears and said with a smile, Dont cry, brother will scold me.
He also told Qin Sanlang some good news: "Uncle He and the others have prepared a lot of supplies, with hundreds of cars, and they are bringing them over from Long'an Mansion. When we get to Changliangwei, we can have a good Lantern Festival."
He said in frustration: "I guess the bandits will launch another raid during the Lantern Festival, and we will have to lie down in Duchonggou again. I'm afraid we won't be able to celebrate the festival safely."
but
Only by fighting can I gain merit and be promoted!
The appearance of Qiqing is almost the same as usual.
Qin Sanlang smiled and said something to him. When the time was almost up, he got up and went to find Uncle Cao.
Zhong Yu sent Qin Sanlang out of the camp and stuffed him with a bag of dried pears: "These are the dried pears brought by Uncle He. They are good for making tea, making sweet soup, and eating as snacks. You can take them back to my sister-in-law."
"It's done." Qin Sanlang accepted it and walked to the Cao family's tent.
Zhong Yu quickly turned around and entered the camp, but he stood in front of the fire for a long time and said silently in his heart: I'm sorry.
However, he vowed to find a way to get the best of both worlds, so that the Zhong family could benefit while also saving everyones lives!
Qin Sanlang had already met Uncle Cao. After the two chatted for a while, Qin Sanlang took Uncle Cao to see the cassava.
Cassava is piled in each tent, and as soon as you enter, you can smell the unique smell of cassava. Uncle Cao hurriedly covered his mouth and nose and asked, "You're not poisoned, are you?"
Qin Sanlang: "Uncle Cao, don't worry, as long as you don't eat cassava raw, you won't be poisoned."
Uncle Cao felt relieved now. He looked at the cassava piled up like a hill, put on leather gloves, and went to look through the cassava himself: "It's well preserved. I don't see any rotten ones, and there are still many sprouts."
Qin Sanlang said: "There are some rotten ones, but we will clean them every day and we will not leave rotten cassava in the tent."
Then, he talked in detail about how to preserve cassava so that it would not rot so quickly, how to plant cassava, etc.
Cassava cannot be planted until after mid-March when the weather warms up. The planting method is similar to that of sweet potatoes. They are cut into long buds and roots.
Uncle Cao listened carefully, and the more he listened, the more he frowned: "It's not easy to grow this cassava... It's still the first month of the year, so it's very difficult to preserve cassava until late March."
Uncle Cao thought for a while and said, "Qin Qianhu, let's discuss it. This time the Cao family will only transport ten carts of sprouted cassava. Wait until mid-March and then take away the remaining twenty carts. How about that?"
He also said: "The Cao family will give the guard one thousand taels of silver as compensation, and ask Qin Qianhu to agree."
If all thirty carts of cassava are taken away, if the servants fail to protect them properly, they will all rot to death, and the potato seeds will be gone.
Qin Sanlang agreed: "If it works, we will do as Uncle Cao said."
With these one thousand taels of silver, the relatives of Weisuo can live a better life.
but
If I am not at the guard station next time when we transport potato seeds, the Cao familys carriage cannot enter the guard station, and the soldiers of the guard station can only transport the potato seeds out to you.
This needs to be made clear first.
Uncle Cao agreed: "Yes."
Qin Sanlang said: "Uncle Cao, where is your doctor? Call him and I will take you to see the cassava soaked in water. At that time, Uncle Mutong will tell you in detail the method of soaking in water to remove toxins, and will also give you Heres a recipe, just in case someone over there gets cassava poisoning and can be treated with medicine in time.
This was a big deal, and Uncle Cao didn't dare to neglect it. He immediately called the accompanying doctors, took Guan Cao with him, and followed Qin Sanlang to see Uncle Mutong.
Uncle Mutong had been waiting for them for a long time. When they arrived, he took them to see the cassava soaked in water. He told Uncle Cao and the others what cassava toxins were and why water soaking could remove toxins. After being exposed to cassava toxins, , how to detoxify and other matters.
They also brought out food made from cassava, crystal bowl cakes and fried cassava **** for Uncle Cao and his companions to eat.
Uncle Cao boldly took a bite of the cassava **** and was quite surprised: "It's delicious and filling. It can really be used as food."
When Uncle Cao said this, his hands were shaking a little.
He was very excited. If cassava really became food, even if the Chu Dynasty was over, the Cao family would be able to get another title in the new dynasty by relying on cassava!
Uncle Cao: "Qin Qianhu, I'm very satisfied with the potato seeds. Let's load them into the truck now and take the cassava away while the Zhong family will hold a banquet later."
"Yes." Qin Sanlang nodded, and quickly arranged ten carriages to load the potato seeds. When it was getting dark, Manager Cao took them out of the guardhouse and sent them to another property of the Cao family. Storage.
Meng Hong knew that Liang Wei, the eldest son of the Cao family, wanted potato seeds, so he saw the carriage drive out of the guard house and knew that the deal was done. He restrained the soldiers and did not let them ask questions.
After sending out the potato seeds, Uncle Cao breathed a sigh of relief and followed Qin Sanlang to the Zhong family for a feast.
At 9:00 the next day, the clanging gong sounded again.
The Zhong family, the Cao family, and Qin Sanlang got up when they heard the sound of the gong and prepared to set off to build a porcelain kiln in Qingniu Mountain Villa.
