Chapter 56 Leaving Linqiong (please recommend tickets for collection)

It was not until the next day that Zhang Yuan went out and found Xiao Qing from the inn.

He now desperately wants to leave Linqiong, but he finds a problem lying in front of him. He must first transfer his household registration to Chengdu, and then he must have a residence in Chengdu before he can transfer his household registration. Otherwise, the cost of entering the city will be enough for him. I have a headache.

Such a large group of people, even those from other places, would be treated as fat sheep and slaughtered by the local government.

If there is no conflict between him and Zhuo Wangsun, he can move his household registration directly through Zhuo Wangsun's route. Their Zhuo family has shops all over the world, and even on the shore of the East China Sea, they can see the Zhuo family's management activities. figure.

"My lord, if you want to go to Chengdu, you can go to Wang Ji, the magistrate of the county, or a noble family with a family property in Chengdu.

Those honorable mansions in Chengdu are generally idle. If someone wants to spend a lot of money to buy them, they will probably be very happy. "

This was the advice given by the carpenter Uncle Zhao to Zhang Yuan. Now Zhang Yuan is somewhat dependent on Uncle Zhao. Having an elder by his side always makes people feel at ease.

It was impossible to find Wang Ji, so he could only find Li Jian who organized the Wangjiangting Scholars' Gathering. Zhang Yuan had a good impression of that guy from the beginning, and felt that he was better than himself in terms of being a man.

After inquiring about the location of Li's house, Zhang Yuan went up to visit immediately. After meeting Li Jian, he expressed his intention to come.

It happened that the Li family had two idle houses in Chengdu. After Li Jian asked his father, he said that he could sell one of them.

When Li Jian was discussing with his father, he repeatedly mentioned that Zhang Yuan was deeply valued by Wei Xin, the son of the Marquis of Jianling, so his father agreed so happily. Who in the current Han court does not know that the person most trusted by the emperor is Wei Xin. Otherwise, he would not have been appointed as the teacher of Prince Liu Che.

"Haha, Mr. Zhang, now I can go to Chengdu with you."

Li Jian's father asked him to go with Zhang Yuan to Chengdu to deal with the land deed matters. Originally, he could just send someone to handle these matters. He probably wanted Li Jian to make acquaintance with Zhang Yuan.

His father, like the previous Zhuo Wangsun and county magistrate Wang Ji, was investing in Zhang Yuan's future.

"With Brother Li accompanying me all the way, my brother will feel more at ease."

The four retainers of the Li family are actually guards. They are all veterans who have retired from the army but have no wives and children. This time, they all went to Chengdu with Li Jian to guard him. This is also the second benefit Li Jian's father gave Zhang Yuan. .

The Zhuo family didn't have guards who could walk outside with weapons in an open and aboveboard manner, and having these four veterans around would also deter those Xiaoxiao.

After agreeing to go on the road together three days later, Zhang Yuan returned to his home from Li's residence.

It's really hard to be alone without a friend or two to help you out.

Zhang Yuan felt that his trip to the big man was a trip away from home, and all he could see were strangers who could not be trusted. It is not wrong to be cautious in everything.

Zhang Yuan asked Xiong Da and the others to hide those large boxes of gold in their clothes. When they opened the box, they could only find that it was a box of clothes, and Zhang Yuan also let them smash the two high-temperature furnaces on the blacksmith’s bench in the yard. They were smashed into pieces, and then the pieces were transported to the Qinggang forest outside overnight to be destroyed, and all the crouching boats were also dismantled and burned.

Zhuo Wangsun left only a yard of pig iron and wrought iron.

No need to think too much, if Zhang Yuan left, Zhuo Wangsun would definitely come here to search for anything useful.

Everyone saw that Zhang Yuan was so cautious, and they all realized the seriousness of the problem. They knew that Zhang Yuan chose to move away from Linqiong because Zhuo Wangsun had captured Lao Zhao and A Huang before. Fortunately, they had no family in Linqiong. And they felt that Zhang Yuan did this to protect them, and everyone actually took out all their money and handed it over to Zhang Yuan.

"Young Master, put all this money in your place and hide it. If there are so many of us, if someone accidentally finds out along the way, I'm afraid it will cause trouble."

When Lao Zhao spoke on behalf of these people, he didn't say anything about returning the money to Zhang Yuan. Their son is not short of money now, and it's all for safety considerations to put it here with Zhang Yuan.

"Okay, Xiao Qing, put away all the money you gave and hide it well, and return the money to them after Chengdu is settled."

Xiaoqing was also very moved. At first he was worried that these rough men would be unfavorable to her and Zhang Yuan because of money, but now it seems that these people are a group of trustworthy people.

"My maid, go hide now."

Xiao Qing took the heavy gold from Lao Zhao and jumped back to the house to hide the money.

Three days passed quickly. In order to arrive in Chengdu earlier, Zhang Yuan chose to set off in the early morning. At this time, there were few people and would not attract too many people's attention. Fortunately, Zhang Yuan did not live in Linqiong County. , saving a lot of trouble.

The wooden carts for storing the boxes were found by Li Jian with help. There are four of them. Even the cattle were temporarily pulled from the Li family's own field. Zhang Yuan felt a little apologetic.

They made friends with Zhang Yuan for some illusory things, but now Zhang Yuan has no way to repay.

Without much thankful nonsense, Zhang Yuan, Li Jian, and Xiao Qing got into the leading carriage and set off.

The official road from Linqiong to Chengdu is very smooth and not very bumpy. There are many caravans coming and going, and the safety has been greatly improved.

Everyone was in a hurry along the way, they had to arrive at Jiangyuan City before dark, and went into the city to find an inn to stay.

Carrying so much belongings and living outside the city for one night, Zhang Yuan couldn't feel at ease no matter whether he had the four veterans or not.

Fortunately, the people under Zhang Yuan also understood the pros and cons, and the four veterans didn't care at all about the journey. They finally arrived at Jiangyuan City before the sun set in the Longmen Mountains.

The city gate guards charged Zhang Yuan a fee for entering the city, and it cost him a tael of gold to enter the city just for one night.

Li Jian had been to Jiangyuan City, and their Li family also had a property in Jiangyuan. They hadn't mentioned it to Zhang Yuan before, so Zhang Yuan thought he would spend money to stay in a hotel.

Although the Li family members are all in Linqiong, there are two old slaves living in this house on weekdays. If no one is watching, it will allow thieves to come in and steal.
