Danger! The heroine of Quick Wear comes from the end of the world

For three days in a row, the water in the river did not get any smaller. This made Ning Xiao, who was bored here, a little unbearable. After thinking about it again and again, Ning Xiao decided to head upstream of the river. Let's go and see if there are any other bridges that can cross the river.

After Ning Xiao negotiated with the Shangdong family, the Shangdong family also had some thoughts, and then sent two people from their caravan to follow Ning Xiao to the upper reaches of the river, hoping that if they found a bridge that could cross the river, they would come back and notify them. them.

In fact, Ning Xiao was a little confused and asked.

"Shang Dong, you often do business. Don't you know that there are other bridges on this river? Have you always taken this route?"

The business owner smiled bitterly.

"Brother Ning doesn't know something. These merchants usually take the most familiar routes. Because we are not familiar with other routes, we don't dare to go easily. You must know that if we encounter a robber or something on this road, we will also lose money." I’m sorry!”

After hearing what the merchants said, Ning Xiao knew their concerns. Every time he went out to do business, he always hung his head on his belt. He might encounter a more powerful robber at some point. Being robbed would be a trivial matter. But if you lose your life, your work will really be in vain.

In the end, Ning Xiao took Xiao Linzi and two guards sent by the merchant family and walked towards the upper reaches of the river. This walk lasted a day. In the evening, they came to a deserted village. The village here was already a deserted village. The village is vacant. It seems that the people here can no longer survive, and the entire village has moved.

During this day, they did see several bridges, but each bridge was covered by river water for more than a foot, making it impossible to cross the bridge. They had no choice but to give up and continue walking upstream.

Ning Xiao looked at the village, and finally chose a relatively well-preserved courtyard to live in. He ordered Xiao Linzi and two guards to tidy up, and then a few people moved in.

Because the village is a deserted village, the fields near the village are also deserted, one of the guards said.

"What a wonderful land, but now that the foolish and unscrupulous King An has harmed it, the people here have no choice but to leave their homes and seek life elsewhere."

Ning Xiao also saw such a scene, but he didn't say anything. Such things happened in any dynasty.

"Okay, hurry up and get water, let's cook and eat!"

Early the next morning, Ning Xiao and others had dinner and walked upstream again. But this time they were lucky. They actually found a bridge. This bridge could be crossed, although there were also some obstacles on the bridge. The water rolled over the bridge, but there was only a thin layer. From Ning Xiao's perspective, the depth was only about one centimeter, which did not affect people and mules crossing the bridge at all.

"Oh, we finally found a bridge to cross the river. Master, shall we cross the river now?"

Ning Xiao nodded and said to the two guards.

"You should go back now and tell your boss that they have found a bridge to cross the river. Let them come over quickly! I am waiting for your arrival on the other side of the bridge."

The two guards also knew their mission. Now that they had found a bridge that could cross the river, they naturally needed to go back and report to their boss, so they said.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ning, we'll go back right away. I think we'll be there in three days."

After sending away the two guards, Ning Xiao dismounted and led the horse to get on the bridge, but was stopped by Xiao Linzi.

"Sir, there is still water on the bridge. Although it is not very cold now, you still need to pay attention. You ride on the horse and the little one will lead you over."

Ning Xiao was very impressed by Xiao Linzi's attitude. He nodded and got on the horse. Xiao Linzi led the horse onto the bridge.

He crossed the bridge smoothly and waited for Ning Xiao to pass by.

"Okay, Xiao Linzi, take off your shoes quickly, make a fire and dry the wet shoes."

Another three days passed, and the Shang Dong family finally arrived with their caravan. Ning Xiao watched from the other side of the river as the Shang Dong family arranged for guards to drive the mule cart onto the bridge.

After the merchants crossed the river, they took out the map and looked at it.

"Brother Ning, this is no longer the boundary of Jizhou Prefecture. The place we are now is the boundary of Yongzhou Prefecture. If we still go to Jizhou Prefecture, then we need to go northeast, but I don't plan to go to Jizhou Prefecture for the time being. Well, as a businessman, since I have come to the boundary of Yongzhou Prefecture, I will open up the business routes here, and maybe I will not go to Jizhou Prefecture in the future."

Although Ning Xiao was surprised by the decision of the Shang Dong family, he also understood that nowadays, the people of Jizhou Prefecture were in dire straits due to King An, and the business was probably not easy to do. Now that they are here in Yongzhou Prefecture, it would be good to open up the business of Yongzhou Prefecture. of.

"The business owner's idea is very good, so let's say goodbye. I have to go to Jizhou Prefecture. We will see you later."

After saying that, he got on his horse and ran towards Jizhou Mansion with Xiao Linzi.

Because they made a big detour, Ning Xiao and the others were now at the boundary of Yongzhou Prefecture. On this day, the master and servant came to a county town and looked at the name on the gate of the county town: Yangde.

This is a county adjacent to Jizhou Prefecture. After Yangde County, it is the boundary of Jizhou Prefecture.

"Sir, depending on the weather, we will probably stay in Yangde County tonight."

"Well, let's go, show us the road to lead us into the city."

The two of them entered Yangde County smoothly. Looking at the bustling streets and the lively flow of people, Ning Xiao felt that the magistrate of Yangde County was probably a good official, because whether an official does well or not depends on the people. You can see it in the smile on his face and his clothes.

The faces of the people here are filled with smiles, and their clean clothes. Although some people have some patches on their clothes, they are still clean and tidy, which also reflects that this county magistrate is very good.

The master and servant found a clean inn to stay. Anyway, they were not in a hurry. Ning Xiao decided to stay in Yangde County for a few days. Anyway, he was not in a hurry with his own affairs. He just wanted to return to the capital at the end of the year. .

Ning Xiao did not stay in the Tianzihao room in this inn, but chose a separate small courtyard to live in. In fact, these small courtyards are used to accommodate guests who are traveling with their families, because some wealthy families have family members who go out. There are a lot of luggage and servants, so this kind of courtyard is usually prepared for these people.

"Sir, it seems that this inn is very good. I just told you that we don't need to cook our own meals. Let the inn prepare it for us. The hot water will be delivered soon. You can wash up first. If you want, you can come and finish washing up. time to eat."
