The Queen's Engineering Army

Chapter 100
The harsh winter passed, the ice and snow began to melt, and everything recovered.

spring is coming.

It has been a year since Su Lin came to this era.

Many, many things happened this year. A year ago, I came to this barren mountain and wild forest alone, with nothing.

But now, many kinds of buildings have been built in the mountains, including residential houses, shops, mills, wineries... Dahan Village is like a prosperous paradise.

The size of the village continued to expand, and the speed of expansion was jaw-dropping.

Not only civil buildings, but also military buildings keep up with the speed of expansion.

Because Su Lin knew that if he wanted to protect everything that was hard-won, he had to have the power to resist foreign enemies.

"Are you all ready?" Su Lin asked on his horse.

Although the weather was getting warmer, it was still a bit chilly. Surin was wrapped in a thick rabbit fur coat.

"My lord, I'm ready." Wei Qi ran over and cupped his hands.

"Well, let's go."

Su Lin nodded, slightly pinched the horse's stomach with his legs, and drove the horse forward.

Aobama didn't move much all winter, and his coat was bright and fat. Taking advantage of the nice weather today, he neighed and trotted forward.

The news of Zheng Qian's death came half a month ago, and Su Lin also felt that the world was impermanent.

Zheng Gan helped her many times, this time he went to Yindu to pay respects and visit Zheng Xiu at the same time.

Speaking of it, Zheng Xiu is also very pitiful. Her parents died tragically, and her adoptive father Zheng Gan also went. Su Lin is afraid that she has not come out of this shadow.

Thinking like this is too small to underestimate Zheng Xiu. She was really sad at first, but she soon walked out. She is staying in Zheng's mansion enjoying a luxurious life at this time.

Su Lin was already very proficient in riding horses, and Auba was indeed a good horse, so he didn't feel tired even after riding for a long time.

Many villagers waited at the entrance of the village to see the Lord off.

Hua Rong and Ma Yun are now at the front of the crowd.

This time I went to Yindu, the journey was far away, I needed some guards, and I brought a lot of people with me.

Li Jinlong, Zhai Li, Wei Qi, Shi Qi and more than a dozen militiamen.

The village was handed over to Ma Yun and Hua Rong.

"I'll leave the affairs of the village to you two. If anything happens, I'll ask you." Su Lin pulled his horse to a stop and instructed.

"Here."

Ma Yun and Hua Rong accepted the order.

"My lord, how long will it take you to come back?" Ma Yun raised his head and asked.

"Ah."

Su Lin thought for a while, but couldn't be sure, so he had to say: "At least half a month, at most, he will come back in a month."

"The village also has a stronghold in Yin. There are our people there. If the Lord has something to do, we can send a message back." Ma Yun said.

"Well, after I leave, you should pay more attention to the planting and breeding of sweet potatoes, and make sure nothing goes wrong."

Su Lin is most concerned about the breeding of sweet potatoes and rabbits, which is related to the food safety of the village.

Food is the most important thing for the people, and food production is the top priority.

"Small ones must be kept in mind." Ma Yun nodded and cupped his hands.

Su Lin looked at Huarong again.

Ma Yun is in charge of the chores in the village, and he is in charge of eating, drinking and drinking.

And Huarong is in charge of the military in the village, which is equally important.

"Spring is the breeding season for wild beasts. The number of hunts should be reduced as much as possible. The existing food is sufficient. After I leave, I will continue to lead the militia to practice. I want to see the results when I come back." Su Lin said seriously.

"Here, the young one must live up to my lord's entrustment." Hua Rong clapped his hands and nodded.

He has not made any achievements yet, but this time he said that he would make some achievements for the lord and the people in the village, Hua Rong secretly swore.

After finishing the order, Su Lin and his party set off.

In order to speed up the journey, everyone rode horses. If they were fast, they could reach Yindu in less than three days.

three days later.

On the streets of Yindu, there are people coming and going, and the shouts of vendors are endless.

You can smell the aroma of various foods while standing on the street. It is indeed the most prosperous city in Chu State.

It is also a first-tier big city in this era, corresponding to the Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen of later generations.

"The capital of Yin is really prosperous."

Su Lin sighed on the horse, and drove the horse slowly, very curious about the things on the street, looking left and right.

Arrived in Yindu yesterday evening, he didn't go directly to Zheng's mansion, he felt it was too late and inconvenient, so he found an inn to stay.

Waking up this morning, Su Lin asked the three of them to follow and go to Zheng's mansion to find Zheng Xiu.

Before going, take a stroll on the street to feel the customs and customs of Chu State.

Today he changed into a white costume, white cloth boots under his feet, his long hair tied up, and he looked like a white-faced gentleman.

Wei Qi led the horse in front, Li Jinlong, Shi Qi and Zhai Li followed on foot.

"I want to come down and take a walk." Sulin pulled the rein to make Obama stop.

"Here."

Hearing this, Wei Qi quickly knelt down under the saddle and used it as a stool for dismounting.

Although she has a lot of power in the village, she is just a lowly servant in front of Su Lin, and she doesn't blame others, everything is chosen by herself
This action attracted passers-by on the street to look here. In fact, it was nothing unusual. This was how many princes, nobles, and high-ranking officials traveled like this.

After Su Lin got off his horse, he glanced at Wei Qi and said with a smile, "Wei Qi and Shi Qi, you two have really funny names, did your parents choose to save trouble when they named them?"

Suddenly, I became interested in their names, both with a seven character.

Wei Qi scratched his head in embarrassment. He didn't think his name was very casual before. The key is that Shi Qi's name is not good, and he must have Qi in his name.

"My lord, please give me a name."

Shi Qi, dressed like a mouse, stepped forward and said with a flattering smile.

Su Lin felt that he had some special abilities that might be useful, so he brought him out.

"Then, your name is Shi Qian." Seeing his appearance, Su Lin thought of someone, and said casually.

"Shi Qian?" Shi Qi murmured, and said pleasantly, "Thank you, my lord, for giving me the name. The younger one will be called Shi Qian from now on."

Shi Qi didn't feel much about the previous name. Hearing what the lord said, it felt a bit random.

Now that I have a new name, my whole person is different, and I feel superior.

Wei Qi scratched his head with a smile. He had been using this name since he was a child, so he didn't want to change it.

Su Lin smiled and was about to give Wei Qi a new name when suddenly a little girl bumped into him.

He touched the corner of his waist slightly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The little girl quickly apologized, then bowed her head and walked away.

Su Lin felt that something was wrong, maybe the little girl didn't do it on purpose, but the freshly baked Shi Qian shouted: "Wait a minute."

The little girl had already walked a few steps, and when she heard the sound, she hurriedly ran away without turning her head.

Seeing this scene, Su Lin touched his waist subconsciously, the purse was gone.

If it weren't for the professional Shi Qian by his side, Su Lin would never have noticed.

Shi Qian snorted coldly, and a solemn expression appeared on his wretched face.

Dare to show off the operation in front of Lao Tzu, it is simply life-or-death.

After a few steps, he caught up with the little girl and grabbed her by the shoulder, making her unable to move.

"Let go of me, let me go." The little girl struggled hard.

Su Lin also came over and asked, "Why did you steal my money?"

Not that angry. There are too many poor people in this era, and sometimes stealing is a last resort.

Besides, Su Lin didn't care much about money, because it was too easy for her to make money now.

I was too anxious just now to see the little girl's face clearly. The little girl raised her head. Although her face was dirty, it could be seen that she was definitely a beauty.

"I, I just want to get some medicine for my mother." The little girl looked at these people, a little nervous.

"Oh, your mother is sick?" Su Lin asked.

"I'm not sick, but I was injured by my father. The injury was serious. My father beat my mother when he was drunk. I bought medicine to apply to my mother's wound." The little girl began to cry.

Su Lin hated this kind of thing the most, but he couldn't completely believe what the little girl said.

seeing is believing.

Su Lin wanted to personally check whether the little girl was lying. If what she said was true, forget it. If it was a lie, then she would have to be taught a lesson, so as to save herself from stealing in the future.

"What's your name? Where do you live? I'm going to your house to see your mother and see if you've lied." Su Lin asked.

"My name is Mi Yue. I live in the alley in front of me. I can take you there." The little girl said.

"Okay, let's go." Su Lin nodded and was about to follow the little girl.

Wait, something doesn't feel right.

"What's your name?" Su Lin stopped and asked abruptly in a hurried tone.

"I, my name is Mi, Mi Yue." Mi Yue was also taken aback, and stammered.

Su Lin was shocked, Mi Yue?It can't be the same name.

Wei Wei looks back at Zhai Li, this is your old lover who will kill you in the future.

Zhai Li also felt Su Lin's strange gaze, a little strange, what kind of gaze is this?
