Ye An

Chapter 474 An Invitation to Go to Sea

In the next section of the road, the team encountered three groups of migrating mutant beasts one after another.Fortunately, they were separated by a certain distance, and the herd was not large, so there were no unexpected troubles.

The team accelerated forward and arrived at the outskirts of Fengcheng in the evening.

At that time, Mustafa was working in the fields with some city residents.

In order to alleviate the drought, Fengcheng people diverted water from the ground to irrigate the wheat fields that could still be saved.

There are a large number of pipelines buried underground in Fengcheng, which were laid by the orders of successive city lords.When the surface river is cut off, groundwater can be diverted for irrigation.

Regrettably, a rebellion broke out in Fengcheng 30 years ago, and the last city lord died at the hands of the elders. The city continued to be in chaos for a while, and after the chaos subsided, they were busy fighting for power and profit, and no one paid attention to underground projects.The water pipes used by Mustafa and others were laid decades ago, and some of them are aging. Fortunately, they can still be used.

The sound of the engine came from a distance, and the Fengcheng people in the field straightened up one after another, looking in the direction of the sound.

The hot wind rolled up the sand and dust, blocking everyone's sight.

The sand fog gradually dissipated, and Ye An and his party appeared in front of everyone.

Mustafa raised the water pipe, poured cool groundwater over his head, shook off the water droplets that blocked his sight, and walked quickly to the head of the field. Regardless of the water stains on his body, he quickly put on his robe, called a few of his men, and stepped forward to meet him. convoy.

The roar of the modified car came out in the wind, attracting the attention of more Fengcheng people.

A figure appeared at the top of the city and found that not only the caravan was returning, but also a caravan carrying goods, and immediately ran down the city wall to meet Zahaf who was staying in the city.

Upon receiving the news, Zahaf immediately led his men out of the city.

Reluctantly, he moved a little slower, one step behind Mustafa.When he arrived, Mustafa had already met Sarn and led his men to help carry the goods and assist the caravan to set up camp outside the city.

"grown ups."

Zahaf knew Sarn, and despite the latter's changed attire and shaved chin beard, he was still instantly recognizable.From the tone of voice before contacting Ye An, he immediately understood who Ye An was waiting for.

This made Zahaf's heart beat, and he subconsciously looked at Mustafa.

The latter didn’t seem to be worried at all, not only helping to carry the goods, but also chatted happily with Saen, as if old friends reunited, and completely forgot how Pang Sen pushed Saen away when he was in power, and how he sat by without saying a word.

Ye An greeted Mustafa Zahaf separately, then nodded to Sarn, indicating that the next matter would be left to him to handle.

"Your Excellency, don't worry." Sarn was very confident, his eyes swept over Mustafa and Zahaf, and he understood that they were the next collaborators and competitors, and he already had a plan in his heart.

Before leaving, he imagined many possibilities, but he always believed in one thing, as long as he showed enough value to meet Ye An's requirements, no matter how many competitors there were in Fengcheng, he would have the upper hand.Taking ten thousand steps back, he would not be easily plotted and murdered by Pang Sen like before, and escaped from Fengcheng like a bereaved dog.

Of course, he must also control his desire for power, think twice before doing things, and not easily cross the line.Otherwise, Ye An would be the first to let him go.

Seeing Mustafa and Zahaf, Sarn was friendly, but he didn't intend to make more greetings.

According to the previous plan, he will help the caravan unload the goods, build a camp, and set up a stall outside the city to display the goods he brought to attract the attention of Fengcheng people.

"Market?" Mustafa subconsciously looked at Ye An when he saw the movement of the caravan.But he found Ye An resting one hand on the roof of the car, bending over to talk to Xiao Yun inside the car, seemingly indifferent to the caravan's movements.

Hearing Mustafa's words, Sarn put down a wooden board, patted the dust and sawdust on his hands, and explained to the doubtful Fengcheng people: "The caravan has salt, sugar, cloth, and some medicines. The quantity is not small. You can tell people in the city that the price is absolutely fair.”

Mustafa and Zahaf looked at each other, confirming that Sarn was not lying, and the merchants' attitudes were not perfunctory, and they couldn't help but feel a little scheming.

"Is this what Lord Ye and City Master Xiao mean?" Zahaf was still a little worried.

"Of course." Sarn nodded, took off his sweaty turban, and wiped the sweat on his face and neck with the hanging part, "I might as well tell you that Fengcheng must re-establish the rules if the matter of Pang Sen is resolved. Your Excellency is satisfied, no matter how scarce the goods are, it will not be a problem."

Although Mustafa and Zahaf are very good at managing expressions, they are still seen by the wily Sann.He was not in a hurry to reveal the hole cards, but just threw out enough fragrant bait to attract the two of them.

There is no need to worry too much about the next thing, you can take it step by step.Even though it will take some time, it can be laid out smoothly to avoid mistakes in the process and leave hidden dangers for the future.

After listening to Sarn's explanation, both Mustafa and Zahaf were very moved, not to mention their subordinates and the Fengcheng people who were not far away pricked up their ears.

Sarn strikes while the iron is hot, describing to everyone the bustle of the isolated island market, vividly telling about the endless stream of caravans and the dazzling array of goods in the market.

Fengcheng 30 years ago also had such excitement.

It's a pity that times have changed. Today's Fengcheng is not as good as it used to be. Even if there are caravans, it is not as good as one thousandth of its heyday, and it can't be compared with today's isolated island.

"Believe me, following the adults will definitely bring you unimaginable benefits."

Sarn is well aware of the frailty of human nature, and knows how to persuade his former colleagues.

I am ashamed to say that part of the reason why he is so comfortable is that he starts from himself, imagining what kind of temptations he would face in order to be tempted and unable to control it.

Facts have proved that his method is very effective, and a small test will bring good results.

Leaving Mustafa and Zahaf a certain amount of time to think, Sarn stopped talking. After a short break, he continued to work in front of the tent, helping the merchants to roll out their stalls, and waiting for the arrival of Fengcheng people.

They don't need to worry about safety.

The team led by Ye An and Xiao Yun was nearby, and the Fengcheng people had lost their minds and went crazy to have bad thoughts.

In addition, the herd will not approach easily.

The only thing to be wary of is the bugs that live underground. Most of them are poisonous. If you accidentally bite them, they will still hurt for a few days if you have an antidote. The taste is very unbearable.

Sarn and the merchants were busy until late at night, all the tents were set up, and all the stalls were spread out.

After Mustafa and Zahaf returned to the city, relevant news spread quickly, and the people of Fengcheng were very excited. Many people had already begun to count the warehouses at home, preparing to leave the city in the morning to trade urgently needed goods.

News of Sarn's return also spread throughout the city.

People in Fengcheng have many guesses about this, but no one dares to act rashly.

With the lessons learned from the House of Elders, even Mustafa and Zahaf are very cautious in doing things.Even if it was clear that Sann would split the rights in the hands of the two, they would not do it face to face.As for what happens behind the scenes, it depends on the situation.

All Fengcheng people know that with Sarn's return, a new order is bound to be established in the city.

Whether this change is good or bad, and what it will bring to your own life, it will take time to prove.

In the hunters' camp, Ye An and Xiao Yun returned to their tents after dinner, but neither felt sleepy.

Ye An sat cross-legged, resting his chin with one hand, spread out a few scrolls of animal skins in front of him, and quickly browsed the contents on them.

Xiao Yun wiped the long knife aside, the blade reflected cold light, leaving a sharp silhouette on the wall.

"After the things here are over, I plan to go to Haicheng again." Xiao Yun said suddenly, and the voice came to Ye An's ears, making him startled.

"Going to Haicheng?" Ye An turned his head, his eyes fell on Xiao Yun's face.

"Yes." Xiao Yun stood up the blade, turned his wrist, the blade covered his left cheek, and his cold breath merged with him.

Ye An was silent for a moment, clearly sensing what the other party was thinking, pinched his forehead, and said, "Do you want to go to sea?"

He thought that Xiao Yun would have such a plan, but he didn't expect it so soon.

"Together, how about?" Xiao Yun offered the invitation.

"Is there a boat?" To be honest, Ye An was very interested.

"Gerald sent back a message that a ship has been completed."

"Gerald?" Ye An asked in surprise, "People in Jincheng can build ships?"

"They not only know how to mine." Xiao Yun said, "I have the blueprints in my hand, and I also have a part of the manpower. Given enough remuneration, Gerald is naturally happy to do this business."

Ye An rubbed his chin when he thought of the machines made by Jincheng people.

"When did it start?" He didn't know at all.

"After returning from Haicheng." Xiao Yun said.

"Is that so." Ye An didn't think the other party was deliberately hiding himself.In fact, for a long time after the trip to Haicheng, he has been busy and rarely has time to spare.Even if Xiao Yun told himself, he might not have the energy to participate.

However, he was really tempted by Xiao Yun's invitation to go to sea.

"Let me think about going to sea."

"it is good."

Xiao Yun stopped talking and continued to wipe the long knife.

Ye An unrolled the animal skin roll again, but his mind kept flying away. Thinking of everything he saw from Haicheng, and the descriptions of Uncle Qiang, Uncle Wang and others, he became more and more moved by Xiao Yun's invitation.
