I asked you to save the villain, not to take him as your wife!

Chaos in the world is a disaster, but also an opportunity.

Shen Dafu had not yet thought about the long-term goal of his son and daughter becoming king.

He just thought that if he could become a local lord, he would have a certain status.

In this way, the son and daughter's life will be better and they will have more choices.

In short, Shen Dafu was finally persuaded by Shen Que.

In the past few days, the Shen family has been very active, sorting out the account books and seeing how much money they have to use for recruiting soldiers.

As for recruiting soldiers and buying horses, who will be responsible for it?

Apart from Shen Que, there is no one else to think of.

Recruiting soldiers and buying horses seems to be a job that costs money and it doesn't seem to be difficult.

In fact, this job is very dangerous.

Recruiting soldiers is not a big deal. As long as the military pay is in place and they have food and clothing, there will be a lot of people willing to do so.

But buying a horse is a really difficult task.

This horse is not available everywhere.

Especially the war horses needed by the army.

The Shen family originally did horse business, but there was still some difference between their horses and the war horses needed by the army.

War horses require special training methods, which the Shen family obviously does not have.

Moreover, training on your own would take a very long time.

Judging from the current situation, there may not be enough time to train them horses.

Therefore, the Shen family needed to buy a batch of war horses.

War horses are not cheap, and you can imagine that this will be a big deal.

And there are forces with war horses, most of which are strong and powerful.

They also look at the person when they sell the horse.

If the two sides are evenly matched, then of course the horse will be sold normally.

But if one of them is weak, then the winner takes all.

Let’s take Shen Que himself as an example.

If he were weak, the horse seller would not do business with him at all, but would just rob him of his money and kill his people.

Shen Que told He Yin all the difficulties in recruiting soldiers, and Shen Que felt a little dry in the mouth.

But there was nothing on the stone table except snacks and pastries, not even tea.

"Don't you feel choked?" Shen Que looked at He Yin and asked as his mouth became dry.

While Shen Que was talking, He Yin never stopped eating. There was probably only half of the pastries in the two boxes left.

He Yin has been eating so many snacks, don’t you really want to have a cup of tea?

"I don't think so." He Yin shook his head seriously.

These pastries were delicious and he liked them very much. As for the choking sensation that Shen Que mentioned, he didn't feel that.

Shen Que: "..."

"Okay, then I'll speak frankly." Shen Que endured the dryness in his mouth and continued, "Brother He is a talented person. I would like to invite Brother He to join me."

He Yin paused while eating the snack.

After a moment, he nodded: "Okay."

This time it was Shen Que who was stunned.

You agreed to this?!

So satisfying?

He had only thought halfway through his words of persuasion, but He Yin agreed so readily. This made him very uncomfortable.

After a while, Shen Que asked suspiciously, "Did Brother He really agree?"

"You don't want me to agree so much? Then I..."

"That's not what I meant. Since Brother He has agreed, then we have a deal. Brother He can't go back on his word." Shen Que said quickly.

In Shen Que's view, He Yin was his savior and also a remarkable man.

If he really doesn't want to agree, he can't force him.

But since He Yin had agreed, he must finalize the matter as soon as possible.

"I have a request." He Yin saw Shen Que was happy and said.

He felt that as long as his request was not too excessive at this moment, Shen Que would agree to it.

And what he wanted to ask for was indeed not excessive.

"Brother He, please feel free to ask for anything you want. As long as the Shen family can do it, we will not refuse." Shen Que said with a hearty and generous smile.

Shen Que was so magnanimous that He Yin didn't hesitate to be polite.

"You have to eat well." He Yin stated his request.

Shen Que was stunned again.

What kind of requirement is this?

He Yin continued, "I don't care about where you live or what you wear, but the food must be good."

This is non-negotiable.

The original owner is sixteen years old this year. If he eats well, theoretically he can still grow taller.

So other things don’t matter, the food must be good.

"This..." Shen Que was speechless for a moment.

"What? Is this request too much?" He Yin asked puzzledly.

This shouldn't be the case. A wealthy family like the Shen family shouldn't have such a hard time getting food, right?

Shen Que shook his head.

He Yin’s request was indeed not excessive and was even very easy to accomplish.

It was because it was so easy that Shen Que was so surprised that he was speechless.

"It's not too much, no problem." Shen Que said affirmatively.

He Yin was happy to get Shen Que's affirmation.

He smiled happily and nodded with satisfaction.

"Is there anything else?" He Yin asked without going to get the snacks.

Shen Que thought for a moment and shook his head: "Not yet."

"Okay." He Yin nodded and began to put the empty plates into the lunch box.

"Are you full?" Shen Que asked doubtfully.

"That's not the case." He Yin said, "It's just that I should put radish in the pork ribs I stewed."

After saying that, He Yin stood up, peeled the unpeeled radish in a few seconds, washed it, quickly cut it into several large pieces, and threw it into the pork ribs soup.

After throwing in the radish pieces, He Yin put the lid back on the pot, squatted down and added some firewood to the stove.

His movements were quick and skillful, and it was obvious that he had done it many times.

Shen Que watched from the side and for some reason felt a slight envy.

Of course, he did not envy He Yin's efficiency in work.

What he envied was the casual and free-spirited feeling of He Yin.

After adding the firewood, He Yin did not return to the stone table immediately.

He entered the house and soon came out with a teapot and two bowls.

"The tea we brewed this morning is cold now. Just drink it." He Yin said as he poured tea into the bowl.

Shen Que had never tried drinking tea from a bowl.

But he didn't mind it and naturally picked up the bowl and took a sip.

The tea was cold, but the leaves were good.

I think it was sent by my family yesterday.

Shen Que’s guess was indeed correct.

He Yin isn't a tea lover, so why would he go out of his way to buy tea?

The Shen family gave it to him yesterday, so he just thought of making a pot of tea today.

As a result, I was not used to it, so the teapot was still full from morning to noon.

After taking a sip of cold tea to relieve his thirst, Shen Que put the bowl down.

The two sat at the stone table, neither of them speaking.

He Yin didn't know what to say.

And Shen Que also didn't know what to say.

He has said everything he wanted to say.

After sitting quietly for a while, He Yin became a little restless.

He looked at Shen Que and asked doubtfully, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"

"Are you chasing me away?" Shen Que asked back.

"You have finished what you said. If you don't leave, do you want to keep me here for dinner?" He Yin frowned.

In fact, Shen Que was really preparing to leave.

But after He Yin said that, he really didn't leave: "You ate so many of my snacks, so I'm eating your meal, you're not losing out, right?"
