Shen Chenai's Different Life in Ancient Times

The cause of the matter was still those orders from the Wuwei Army.

On this day, Luo Ding took care of the business in his shop as usual.When Shen Chenai came over, it was the best time of the day for business. Although the early autumn season was not the busiest day for their butcher shop business, but at this time, there were still many customers who came to the door.

At that time, Luo Ding was busy splitting flesh and bones for the customers who came to buy meat. Just as he finished his work, a young guy suddenly rushed in from outside the shop.

That person is a worker in the store. Yesterday Luo Ding just asked him and a few other strong laborers to send over 50 fat pigs to the Wuwei army. It is time for them to come back, but why did they come in? Is he the only one?And his complexion is so bad?

The one who ran in in a hurry came to Luo Ding's side panting, and said to him intermittently: "The boss...it's not good...Wuwei...don't want anything...don't want us anymore... Pork from home."

After hearing what he said, a pot exploded in the butcher's shop, and the guys immediately surrounded the worker, asking him indiscriminately.

Seeing that something was wrong, Shuanzi immediately stood up and shouted at the crowd: "What are you all doing? Don't you need to entertain so many guests? Hurry up and cut the meat for the guests. If you neglect them, be careful about your monthly wages."

Seeing that the shopkeeper came out to speak, those guys hurried back to their respective jobs, but their ears were still not idle, and they were all pricked up one by one.

This can't be blamed on them. Among these guys, most of the families have raised pigs for Luo Ding.Even if there is no place in their own home, they will introduce their relatives to Luoding to catch pigs. After all, this is a way to get money.

Nowadays, most of the ordinary people’s lives are very poor, but it doesn’t take much time to raise pigs for Luoding. Raising a pig can save more than 400 yuan. The women in the family take time to raise two, Three heads, the money to buy new year's goods at the end of the year is almost out.

If it was someone else, they might have to think about it, but Luo Ding didn't use it here. They all begged for food under Luo Ding's hands. Naturally, they knew his character and conduct, so when the family did things for him, they all I am very relieved.

So this group of farmers who joined at the beginning of the year are more or less related to them.This time they heard that there was no need for pork in Wuwei, so they were a little anxious, because they knew very well that the butcher shop of their boss could not consume so much pork. The main market is still in Wuwei.

Luo Ding's heart tensed when he first heard the guy's words, but then he stabilized his mind and asked the guy, "Zhuzi, don't worry, tell me the ins and outs of the matter clearly. .”

Zhuzi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and then said: "Boss, yesterday we took the 50 fat pigs to the Wuwei Army according to your order. But who knew that when we got there, the Wuwei Army was No matter what you say, don’t let our fat pigs enter the barracks, and say that there is enough pork, and you don’t need to ask for more. Brother Ergen reasoned with them, and those people said anything, whoever signed the agreement with, go to whoever, anyway They won't want anything from our house."

Everyone took a deep breath when they heard the words, and Shuanzi muttered to himself, "How is that possible? Our family signed a contract with the Wubei Mansion. Could it be that they want to break the contract by doing this?"

The people next to him also talked a lot when they heard the words, and those with a strong temper simply said what the Shangguan had sued them.

But as soon as that person said what he said, he was poured cold water by the people around him. He didn't know who it was, and said to the person who proposed to sue the officials: "Sue the officials? Don't make fun of me. Do you know what to do next?" When people sue officials and enter the yamen, the masters in the hall will not ask right or wrong first, but hit 30 large boards on the ground. And will those officials and masters offend the Wuwei Army for the sake of a commoner? I guess even if they are determined to face the board, it will be nothing in the end."

Luo Ding didn't pay attention to those people who were arguing, but continued to ask the guy: "Why are you the only one who came back? Are the others okay? Where are you going to settle down now?"

The man heard the words and replied: "Brother Ergen couldn't quarrel with those people, we were driven out by the guards guarding the gate. Brother Ergen had no choice but to put all the pigs in the woods outside the barracks, where they Look, let me report back."

Hearing this, Luo Ding quickly took off the clothes he wore at work, and changed back to the one he usually wears.Then, he took out all the turnover so far today from the counter, put it in his arms, and said to the people in the shop, "I'll go to Wuwei."

Shen Chenai was always in the room. He heard what Zhu Zi said just now and the discussions of other people in the room. Seeing that Luo Ding was about to leave, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked Luo Ding Said: "Can I go with you?"

Hearing this, Luo Ding put on his own cotton hat, put on the dark brown hat and said to Shen Chenai: "You don't have to go there, you still have to look after our shop for me. Don't worry, there are still things we say here." If the contract is in place, Wuwei Army has to give an explanation whether we want or not our things."

Luo Ding's words successfully calmed the people in the butcher shop, and everyone sent him out of the door together, watching him lead the horse with a post, and walk quickly towards the city gate.

Although Luo Ding was comforting everyone with his mouth, he was actually very anxious in his heart.So as soon as he left the city gate, he and Zhu Zi hurried to Wuwei.

The barracks of the Wuwei Army is stationed outside Wuwei City, about 20 miles away from the west gate of Wuwei.Luo Ding and the others didn't even bother to drink their saliva along the way. When they rushed to the gate of the Wuwei Army's camp, it happened that the guard had just changed at the gate post.

Luo Ding went over, and the soldiers guarding the gate didn't let him in at all. It happened that among the guards who had just changed their defense, the corporal leader among them was known by Luo Ding, so Luo Ding tried to quietly call that person aside, He asked in a low voice: "Little brother, what happened in the barracks? Why did you not want the pork I sent over?"

Hearing the words, the corporal leader scanned the surroundings back and forth to make sure that no one was paying attention to them, so he whispered to Luo Ding: "A few days ago, a few people came from the capital and said that there was something wrong with the military officer. They took him away. Now people in the barracks are panic-stricken. Although the adults above are still quiet, the bottom has already exploded. The contracts signed by Tao Wubei before, the military supply side with connections Admittedly, most of them like you have been invalidated. Some people came to ask, and they said that those were signed by Tao Wubei who abused his power, and all of them were insignificant. The people who came here reported that there were people who bribed the armed forces here, and asked them to come and take people."

Luo Ding gasped when he heard the words, and then asked again: "What about Tao Wubei's son? Is Tao Guerrilla okay now?"

The corporal leader heard the words and said: "He is still safe. Those officials from the capital originally wanted to take him away, but our general came forward to guarantee him, and those people were willing to let him stay in the camp temporarily, but You are not allowed to go out either."

Hearing that his friend was fine, Luo Ding felt a little relieved, so he asked another question in his heart: "When I came here just now, I heard that there is no shortage of pork in the barracks now, how can I know this?" Is it why?"

After listening to the question, the corporal thought about it, and finally said: "That's what you're asking, I wouldn't tell him if it was someone else. In fact, your pork is still very popular after it's delivered. The purchase is still as usual, but the person has changed from you to Chang Yuan, that is, the guy who originally supplied us with beef and mutton, and I heard that the price has also increased by [-]%."

After the corporal finished speaking, he looked up and looked around, then lowered his head and continued to say to Luo Ding: "I heard that the surname Chang is the brother-in-law of Deputy General Zhao, so when we purchase military supplies, the meat is basically I bought it from him. The last time Tao Wubei added pork from your family, which greatly crowded out his position, which made him very unhappy. The kid had already said that he would make the Tao family look good. Something will happen to Wu Bei, and I think he probably stabbed him in the back."

Luo Ding also asked in a low voice when he heard the words: "Will no one come forward to take care of Chang Yuan doing this?"

Wu Zhang returned with a low sneer when he heard the words: "He is the brother-in-law of Deputy General Zhao, ordinary people dare not take care of him, those who can take care of him don't bother to go through this muddy water, not to mention that he is still with the newcomer Xu The lieutenant general fights fiercely, and he is the guest of honor in his mansion, so there will be fewer people who are willing to trouble him."

Speaking of this, the corporal leader also felt that he had a little too much to say, so he hurriedly said: "I have been away for too long, and I will attract suspicion if I don't go back. Anyway, this is the whole story, I know I've already told you, and it's useless for you to ask me more details, so I'll go back first."

Hearing this, Luo Ding quickly thanked the corporal leader. After watching him leave and return to the camp, Luo Ding came to the place where Ergen and the others temporarily stored the fat pigs.

Seeing Luo Ding came back, the people who stayed here immediately surrounded him. Er Genzi asked Luo Ding, "What about the boss? Why don't they want our pork? Have you found out why?"

Luo Ding nodded sullenly when he heard the words, but he was not going to explain the reason to his fellows.

The guys staying here are all Jiling people, otherwise Luo Ding wouldn't be able to let them escort the car to Wuwei to deliver the goods.At this time, they saw that Luo Ding had no intention of opening his mouth to say more, so they didn't ask any more questions.

It's just that it's getting late now, so Er Genzi had no choice but to ask: "Seeing that the sky is getting dark, what should we do tonight, Master?"

Luo Ding heard the words and looked at the sky, if they were driving the pigs to Wuwei first, it would definitely be too late.So he said: "Zhuzi, hurry up and ride into the city to buy some quilts and come back. The rest of you will go to the forest to gather firewood. First, light the fire. Tonight we will spend the night outside first." , I will go to the city to take a look at dawn tomorrow.”
