"Little brother, where are you going with us all this way?" Li Hong asked with a smile.

"Go to the state capital." Xu Nuo understood what this person meant, and came to test who he was, so he said, "I'm afraid the road will be rough, so I'll follow you when you see how many people there are."

"Oh." Li Hong nodded and said, "You should be more careful when you are out alone."

He looked at the promised donkey cart and said with a smile: "You are going on a short road, if you go on a long road, you will not be able to keep up."

"Yeah." Xu Nuo looked at the donkey and said, "I also want to go to the state capital to buy a mule."

"Oh." Li Hong said: "You still have to travel far, don't you stop at the state capital?"

Promised: "Stay there for a day or two, and find a caravan to travel with."

Li Hong didn't ask any more about the following words, and he was cautious when going out, not to say everything.

Since this person is fine, it doesn't matter to follow them. We will arrive at the state capital in one day, and then we will go our separate ways.

Li Hong didn't talk anymore, Xu Nuo was also happy and at ease, walking all the way from home for a few days was really hard work, especially the weather was getting colder every day.

In the evening, Li Hong and the others stopped and promised to get out of the car to cook.

"Little brother, you are quite well prepared." Li Hong and the others lost their guard against him and started talking to him one after another.

"It's a long journey, bring a pot and bowl to eat warm." Xu Nuo said.

"Are you visiting relatives? The past two years have been difficult due to the disaster." Wang Lin said.

He was the youngest of Li Hong and his group of ten or so people. He looked about eighteen or nine years old, and he was more enthusiastic about Xu Nuo, thinking that Xu Nuo was going to his relatives for help.

"It's visiting relatives." Xu Nuo smiled, and he didn't explain what Wang Lin was thinking. He also asked for help in his own business, which was similar to Wang Lin's thinking.

"Hi!" Wang Lin asked clearly where Xu Nuo had arrived, and couldn't help but patted his legs and said, "We are also going to the capital, you can follow us all the time."

"Really?" Xu Nuo's eyes lit up, "That's great, I'm still worried about which caravan to find!"

"Cough cough cough." Li Hong coughed a few times on the side.

"Wang Lin, what are you talking nonsense about?" A middle-aged man looked at him seriously, with warning eyes.

"Little brother." Li Hong said embarrassingly: "We are with the Jin family caravan. They have a lot of rules and requirements. They don't take outsiders casually. It took us a lot of effort to get a small steward. It is to follow closely, and cannot get to the front."

Seeing Wang Lin's embarrassment on Wang Lin's face, Xu Nuo explained a few more words and said with a smile, "It's nothing, I'm just asking, and I won't cause you any trouble."

He raised his hand and patted Wang Lin's shoulder, and smiled apologetically, "Sorry."

From the conversation just now, Xu Nuo knew that this was the second time Wang Lin came out to do business.Most of them are from the same village, and some of them are relatives. The middle-aged man just now is his second uncle.

Second Uncle Wang Lin and Li Hong had the final say on this small caravan, and the rest of the people relied on the two of them to make money, and dared not disobey their words.

There was such a small episode, and the scene was a bit awkward, just as everyone had finished their meal and began to prepare for a rest.

Xu Nuo nestled in the carriage, which was more comfortable than the tent that Wang Lin and the others had set up.Hearing the wind blowing outside, I couldn't fall asleep for a while, I was either homesick or thinking about what to pay attention to along the way

As for Cheng Ge, he suppressed himself from thinking about it, as soon as his thoughts started, he would think about it endlessly, but he still cared about his safety, and always had to go through it in his mind before going to sleep.

Arriving at the state capital the next afternoon, Xu Nuo Zhiqu separated from Li Hong and the others. Wang Lin was more honest and kind. When bidding farewell to Xu Nuo, he secretly said: "The Jin family is the largest caravan, and it is safe all the way. You follow behind. That's fine, the road does not belong to their family, there is no reason to drive you away."

"En." Xu Nuo smiled gratefully at him and said, "Understood, thank you."

Even if Wang Lin didn't say anything, Xu Nuo planned to do the same. After all, the big caravan was easy to be messed with, and the capital was far away, so Xu Nuo was naturally extremely careful, but he had to stay a little further away.

He found an inn to settle him down, and asked about where mules were sold, "Oh!" The second brother laughed at that time, "You have found the right person, my uncle sells mules and horses."

"Then I will trouble the little brother." Xu Nuo said happily: "I have traveled a long distance, and I want to buy a stronger one. I also have this donkey, please help me sell it."

"Guest officer, don't worry, I will make arrangements for you."

Xu Nuo nodded and didn't say much. He was going to have a good night's rest and visit this Yunzhou Mansion tomorrow. This is equivalent to the modern provincial capital. I look forward to seeing what it looks like tomorrow.

Yunzhou Prefecture is the largest state capital in the north. Its location is close to the port, and there are many people coming and going for business, which drives the prosperity of business here.

The villages and towns near the state capital are densely populated, and there are many people who go out to work or do some small business after farming, which is far from the promise of their remote town.

In the past two years, although the Yunzhou government has been affected by disasters, all the villages and towns along the way are lonely, and there is a scene of decay everywhere, but within a hundred miles of the state capital, it is not affected, and there are bustling scenes everywhere.

Xu Nuo had long felt strange in his heart, and learned from several exchanges with the waiter at the inn that the magistrate opened a warehouse to release grain when the disaster hit, and the lives of the people were not affected much.

"Hehe." Xu Nuo sneered: Why didn't he know about the opening of the warehouse?I have never heard of this road, and it seems that the people who get the benefits are the people near the state capital.

This magistrate is quite strategic and has great skills, Xu Nuo can hear his respect and gratitude to the magistrate from the words of Xiao Er, and the people nearby are very supportive of the magistrate.

In Xu Nuo Walking and the busy city, there are all kinds of shops, and the streets are crowded with small stalls, loudly selling, crowded with pedestrians, and the prosperity and prosperity are nothing more than this.

"Huh?" Xu Nuo frowned slightly, rubbing his eyes with his hands, suspecting that he was dazzled.

Not far away is a three-storey building with luxurious and simple decoration, which is not something ordinary people can own at first glance, but the tall plaque is very familiar, and even makes him doubt life.

"Daxing No. [-] Leisure Club." Xu Nuo stared blankly, and he didn't react until a passerby bumped into him.

Suppressing the shock and doubt in my heart, I walked around a few times, found a noodle stall and sat down, ordered a bowl of noodles from the stall owner, and asked casually, "What does the guild hall in front of you do? Quite a few, business is booming.”

"Haha." The stall owner said with a hearty smile: "You are not a local at first glance. This guild hall is amazing. It was opened by the grandson of our magistrate. If you are not a dignitary or an elegant person, you can't get in!"

"Crack." Xu Nuo slapped his forehead with a palm: How could he have forgotten this, Zhou Yuyi told him that his aunt was the prefect's concubine daughter, and his eldest brother was studying in the prefecture.

Now he understood everything, Xu's mother and son not only coveted his and Zhou Yuyi's guild hall, but also wanted exclusive business, as well as his "Daxing No. [-]" plaque.

There were 1 idiots in his heart, and his guild hall and his painstaking efforts were burned down by people just like that.

But what can he do?Was he rushing up to scold, or was he the one who invented and created the guild hall, and he also took the name on the plaque?

It doesn't matter if anyone believes it, so what if they believe it, can he get all this back?Not to mention the magistrate's side, even with the viciousness of Xu's mother and son, his life might not survive.

At this time, he didn't know that someone had come to teach him a long time ago, but Cheng Ge's arrangement prevented him from being hurt.

"Guest officer, your noodles are ready." The stall owner brought out the noodles, how could he eat them at this moment.

His chest was full of anger, but he had nowhere to vent it.It's not that he is cowardly and ignorant, but that he understands the twists and turns here too well, and he won't do things like hitting a pebble with a rock.

Looking at the face in front of him, he didn't move his chopsticks for a long time. "Huh?" Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of two little beggars not far from the booth.

"Hey." Xu Nuo smiled maliciously, and in the blink of an eye he thought of a countermeasure.

It's hard for him to scratch his heart and lungs. Do others think it's easy?Picking up the noodle bowl on the table, he waved to the two little beggars, signaling them to come over.

"I would like to ask you to do something for me." Xu Nuo looked at the little beggar standing in front of him with a smile and said, "To show my sincerity, I invite you to eat noodles first."

At this time, he also had an appetite, watching the two little beggars devouring their food, a big bowl of noodles went into his stomach smoothly.

"Remember what I said." Xu Nuo said to the two little beggars in a corner after eating the noodles: "You find more people, so that the entire Yunzhou Prefecture knows what kind of person Zhou Yuwen is. Stealing the business of the concubine brother, for the family Duda burned down the Shudi Guild Hall to nothing, and even took the Shudi's plaque as his own, it is simply a waste of family affection, moral degradation, the most shameless person in the world."

The two little beggars stared wide-eyed, looking at the two ingots of silver in Xu Nuo's hand as if they couldn't believe it, "Is this really for us?"

"Of course." Xu Nuo said, "The ten taels of silver are enough to buy you to spread the news throughout Yunzhou Prefecture. I don't care how many people you find or how you do it."

"Okay." Two little beggars, one about eleven or twelve years old, the other about six or seven years old.

The older beggar said: "He is the grandson of the magistrate, and we can no longer stay here after spreading the news, so we can only pass it to you for three days. After three days, we don't care whether everyone knows it."

"Deal." Xu Nuo understands what he means, and he doesn't want them to have trouble. He will find a way to deal with Xu's mother and son in the future. At present, he is just creating some public opinion to let people know Zhou Yuwen's true face, and simply express his anger.

After the deal was over, Xu Nuo didn't intend to wander around anymore, so he went back to the inn to see how the second assistant was doing.

The Jin family caravan will set off early tomorrow morning, and he will follow behind. He has to get ready today and arrive at the gathering place of the Jin family caravan early tomorrow morning.

Wang Lin told him all these things in secret. He also found out some news from the waiter in the inn. It would be best to go to the capital with the Jin family.

It's just that the Jin family doesn't welcome him as an uninvited guest, Xu Xu made up his mind to prepare everything needed for the long journey, and don't let the Jin family leave him behind.

Cheng Ge hurried all the way back to Mingshan Town, watching the guild hall turn into an open space, his eyes burst into red instantly, and his whole body exuded a terrifying aura.

"Cheng Ge." Boss Cheng saw his son standing outside from a distance, and ran out in surprise.

"Father." Cheng Ge glanced at him, gradually withdrew his momentum, and asked impatiently, "What about the promise?"

"Going to another place." Boss Cheng saw that his face was not good, thought it was a problem with the guild hall, and hurriedly talked to him about it.

Cheng Ge stood there and listened silently. Just now, he was confused because he was concerned. He thought that something happened to Xu Nuo, which disturbed his mood.

"Where's Erdan?" Cheng Ge asked after hearing what his father said.

"It's on the side of the civilian hall."
