"Mr. Zhang?"

"girl!"

One of them was going out and the other was going in, and they bumped into each other.

Shen Qingqian guessed that Zhang Sheng came here to buy someone.

The original servants of the Zhang Mansion were basically all Zhang Fuchang's men, so Zhang Sheng was definitely going to drive those people away.

Although Zhang Sheng had found a few of the original old people before, the Zhang family is so large and powerful that they definitely need to buy some more people!

When Zhang Sheng saw Shen Qingqian, he immediately showed surprise.

"Why is the girl here?"

Shen Qingqian smiled faintly and said, "Come over and buy someone."

Zhang Sheng's eyes lit up instantly, "Miss, are you planning to open a shop in the capital?"

Shen Qingqian shook her head, "No, I plan to go to the North and buy some people to take with me."

"what?"

Zhang Sheng was a little surprised when he heard Shen Qingqian's words.

"Isn't there a war in the North? What is the girl going to do?"

Shen Qingqian said: "This is not a place to talk, go in and pick someone first, and when you are done, we can find a place to chat and I will tell you in detail."

Zhang Sheng said hurriedly: "There is no rush to buy people. It is just a small matter and can be handed over to the people below.

Girl, I have taken back the Zhang family. I would like to invite you to my home and talk about things, okay?"

Shen Qingqian thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I just happen to need your help with something."

Zhang Sheng asked, "What's the matter? Tell me, young lady."

Shen Qingqian said: "The people I bought today need to be settled. Please help me take them in for a few days and find someone to teach them how to drive a carriage."

"Okay, no problem! I'll take care of this little thing!"

Zhang Sheng agreed immediately, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "But, are you coming to the capital alone this time?"

Shen Qingqian said: "No, Yingzi and Zhizhu are here too. I asked them to go shopping."

Zhang Sheng said, "Miss, which inn are you staying at? I'll have someone leave a message for Yingzi and the others to come to Zhang's house when they return."

"it is good."

Shen Qingqian told Zhang Sheng the address of the inn, and he sent an attendant to notify them.

The Zhang family is indeed a wealthy family with a profound heritage in the capital. Their mansion is extremely large and luxury is evident everywhere.

Zhang Sheng saw Shen Qingqian looking around and explained, "This courtyard wasn't like this before. It was renovated by Zhang Fuchang. It must have cost a lot of money."

Shen Qingqian asked: "So do you plan to live here like this, or restore this mansion to its original appearance?"

Zhang Sheng said, "No, it's just a waste of money. I plan to sell this house and buy another one."

Shen Qingqian was not surprised that Zhang Sheng had such thoughts. After all, too many things had happened in this house, carrying many of Zhang Sheng's sad memories.

The two of them came to the main hall and sat down, and immediately a maid brought them the best tea and snacks.

Shen Qingqian was a little hungry, so she picked up a piece of dessert and started eating.

Zhang Sheng poured her a cup of tea and asked, "Why do you want to go to the northern border?"

Shen Qingqian finished a piece of dessert, took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her mouth, wiped her hands again, and then replied: "I heard that Tongning City was lost and the people were displaced. I don't know what the situation is now?

But no matter what the war situation is, there will be casualties and people in distress. So, I want to set up a rescue team and go to the North to rescue those in need."

Although Zhang Sheng had always known that Shen Qingqian was a unique woman, he did not expect Shen Qingqian to make such a decision!

He immediately expressed his opinion: "Young lady, you are so righteous, I am ashamed of myself. However, since this is what you want to do, I will definitely support you.

I am willing to give you 20,000 taels of silver and give it to you to use, so that you can contribute to the North."

"Okay, thank you!"

Shen Qingqian simply replied with three words, but she was truly relieved in her heart.

Yingzi and Zhizhu, an educated youth, soon came to Zhang's house. Zhang Sheng prepared the best wine and food to entertain them.

After the meal, Shen Qingqian and the others said goodbye to Zhang Sheng and returned to the inn. They only left the people they bought at Zhang's house. She would take them with her when she set out.

Five days passed in a flash and it was time to set off tomorrow.

Shen Qingqian had bought everything she could think of. Shen Qingfeng also sent someone to bring her twenty cartloads of coal.

Shen Qingqian deposited all these things at Zhang Sheng's house, preparing to set off with them early the next morning.

In the evening, Zhou Susu came to the inn and handed a package to Shen Qingqian, saying that if Shen Qingqian could meet Yang Zhi, she would give the package to him.

Shen Qingqian didn't know what was in the bundle. Of course, she wouldn't open it to see. She just said she would try her best to find Yang Zhi.

The next day, Shen Qingqian and her friends got up before dawn. They agreed with Zhou Qi to meet at the gate of Zhang's house at 3:30 am.

The people Zhou Susu sent to them would be waiting for them at the north gate of the capital.

Shen Qingqian asked the waiter at the inn to cook a bowl of noodles for each of them. After eating, they got on the carriage and headed for Zhang's house.

When they arrived, they didn't see anyone else in front of Zhang's house. It seemed that Zhou Qi and the others had not arrived yet.

Zhang Sheng had been waiting for them early, and came out immediately when he heard the sound of horse hooves.

Immediately afterwards, horse-drawn carriages loaded with goods drove out of Zhang's mansion.

Zhang Sheng said to Shen Qingqian, "There are seventy trucks in total. The fifty-two men you bought have all learned how to drive, but we still don't have enough manpower. I've hired the remaining drivers for you."

"Thank you, Zhang Sheng."

Shen Qingqian expressed her sincere gratitude, thinking that it was good to have someone to help her, as it would save her a lot of worry!

At this time, another group of people came from the alley. Shen Qingqian guessed that it must be Zhou Qi and his people.

Shen Qingqian went forward, and the young man walking in front turned over and got off his horse.

Shen Qingqian asked: "But Brother Zhou Qi?"

The man cupped his hands and said, "That's right! Is the young lady the Princess of Qingyi County?"

This was the first time Shen Qingqian met Zhou Qi. Before that, Zhou Susu helped to pass messages between them.

It was a little dark, and the distance between the two was a little far. Shen Qingqian could only see that the other person was a burly young man, but he could not see his features clearly.

Zhou Qi's behavior was quite polite, but Shen Qingqian felt that there was something careless in the tone of his voice.

Shen Qingqian didn't take it to heart. After all, Zhou Qi only said one sentence. Maybe it was just her illusion!

Shen Qingqian also imitated Zhou Qi and bowed, and replied politely: "Yes, I am! But calling me the county lady is a bit strange, Brother Zhou, you can just call me Miss Shen."

"it is good!"

When Zhou Qi heard that he had to go with several women, he was indeed reluctant.

Thinking that if something happened on the way, what could a woman do? Wouldn't she just cry? He didn't know how to comfort a woman!

Seeing Shen Qingqian at this moment, although she is also like other women, weak and frail, but from what she said, she is a straightforward person. She should not be a drag!

However, he still internally objected to traveling with several women!
