The Little Lucky Girl
Chapter 226 Overseas Visitors
Yuqing County is located on the main road between the grassland and the Western Regions, and connects Qi and Liang. In the past, the people were poor, and even though they knew that trading was very profitable, they lacked the capital and knowledge, so only the rich families dared to try.
Nowadays, everyone's life has become much better, and with the support of the county government, those who are quick-witted want to join in the fun of traveling for business.
The opening of the Mu family martial arts school is timely. The roads are still not peaceful nowadays, and who doesn't want to have some self-defense skills and learn some practical punches and kicks?
Magistrate Tao was quite satisfied with the performance of the Mu family; as for the Gu family, he was still unsure of the power behind it and decided to sit tight for the time being.
The Golden Tooth Clan has produced a white peacock, and the interests behind this are huge. The Gu family will never let go of this news, and the people behind them will definitely not be able to hold back when they know about it. The county government only needs to arrange the staff and then sit back and wait.
So those masters from the imperial palace who were needed at any time were arranged to stay by the Jinshui River, hiding in the woods to observe every day.
The experts had no objection to the various surveillance arrangements that had been made for them throughout the year. After all, it was much more interesting than hiding in various corners of the palace every day.
Therefore, these people pretended not to understand the various explicit and implicit instructions from Magistrate Tao to invite them to return to the capital, but they were indeed very active in their work. After keeping an eye on the situation for half a month, they caught several waves of spies from Qi and Liang, and even the force that had captured Hu Lincheng that year was dug out.
In order to show that they are worth the money, the experts even occasionally take on the business of running errands and delivering messages, because they can run fast.
Ming Youyou, who was collecting herbs with his grandfather in the mountains, looked at the imperial master who descended from the sky and couldn't help but say happily: "You are really amazing. You were able to find us in this corner."
She brushed the dirt off her body and said to her grandfather, "I'm going to the county government to do some work." Then she stretched out her little arms to the master, signaling him to take her flying.
But the master passed her by and said to Grandpa Yang: "The county magistrate has something urgent to discuss with you."
Grandpa Yang was surprised for a moment, then nodded: "Wait for me to pack up and go down the mountain immediately."
Ming Youyou asked curiously, "Do you know what the emergency is?"
The Imperial Guards felt that this was no secret, and said bluntly: "Someone came from Yangzhou to see your grandfather, saying that he was a patient back then."
"Does he want to express his gratitude, or does he want to see a doctor?"
"From the looks of it, it should be a combination of both."
Oh, Ming Youyou was anxious. Wouldn't this make things difficult for her grandfather? Lord Tao was really something. Why did he send someone to come?
She was worried about her grandfather going alone, "Brother Master, could you please go to Bailu Academy and ask for leave for me?"
Although it was a day off today, Ming Youyou still had to go to the back mountain to find the elder in the clan to learn the "Tao Te Ching". I don't know what happened to the old man recently, he added a lot of lessons for her, and she has hardly had any rest in more than a month. He only agreed to let her learn how to collect herbs in the morning when he heard that she wanted to learn how to collect herbs.
The master looked down at her and slowly extended two fingers.
"Hiss, it's just a trip, you're too mean." Ming Youyou took a breath, "Two bottles of chili sauce are too much, how about I give you a bottle of meat sauce, which is fragrant and spicy, and it's made of beef. It's especially delicious when spread on pancakes."
"Is that the Lao Gan Ma that Feng Xu and others brag about?"
"Yes, do you want it?"
"make a deal."
Grandpa Yang had already packed up. He looked at the figure of the expert passing by and took Ming Youyou's hand with a smile, "Kid, why do you always give weird names to food?"
Ming Youyou stuck out his tongue and changed the subject: "Who do you think could be this person who came all the way here?"
She was actually a little worried. Yangzhou was her grandfather's sad place. "Why don't we find an excuse and disappear."
Grandpa Yang shook his head and said nothing more. The grandfather and grandson walked to the county government office in silence.
As a result, when they were halfway there, they saw a carriage sent by the county government to pick them up, and Mr. He was also in the carriage.
He said to Grandpa Yang, "The people who came here are quite mysterious. They have been wearing a veil and claim to be merchants from overseas. Judging from their accents and the clothes they are wearing, they don't seem to be faking it."
Master He paused, then bowed and saluted. "Nowadays, our trade with overseas countries is not as good as that of the other two countries. Your Excellency means that if possible, I hope you can play a role in it."
Seeing Ming Youyou pouting and staring at him, Master He smiled and said, "Of course, all of this can be done according to Mr. Yang's wishes, and there is no need to force it. Even if we can't meet the visitor's request, it's okay, the master will protect his own people."
Ming Youyou blinked, "From what you said, the momentum of the people coming is quite strong?"
Master He nodded, "It's not small."
It was not just a lot. When they entered the county town, they found it was as lively as the New Year. In particular, the shopkeepers of several inns were grinning from ear to ear. They kept directing the people, "Hurry up, go to the nearby villages to buy anything. The more the better."
Ming Youyou asked in surprise: "Is this another large caravan coming?"
Master He: "They are the people who came to look for your grandfather. The number of them is even larger than that of the Longxi caravan. They have booked all the inns in our county and still can't accommodate them. The rest have been arranged to stay in nearby houses."
When they entered the county government office, they found that there were quite a few people inside. Among them, the person who was surrounded by the crowd, saw Grandpa Yang come in, immediately stood up, walked forward a few steps, and looked at him carefully.
The man was very tall, but seemed old and did not walk very well.
After a moment, he shouted in a somewhat strange voice, "Oh, it's really Doctor Yang." and was about to go forward to hug the person.
The yamen runners surrounding Grandpa Yang were so frightened that they immediately pulled him back several steps.
The man stopped and said hurriedly, "Doctor Yang, it's me. You saved my life at the ferry that year."
As he spoke, he untied the scarf that was wrapped tightly around his head. Everyone was surprised to find that his skin was unusually dark.
"This person is a Kunlun slave." Zheng Huan and the other two came to the front hall at some point and whispered to Ming Youyou.
Ming Youyou suddenly realized and immediately stared at the person who came with sharp eyes. Unfortunately, there were so many people coming, but only this one was special.
Grandpa Yang was also very surprised. He looked at me for a long time before he asked, "Are you Ah...Ajilie?"
The visitor responded, extremely happy, "Doctor Yang actually still remembers my name. It has been more than 20 years since we last met. I didn't expect to see my benefactor again."
"I now have a Chinese name, which was given to me by my master. He said that I came from the sea and I am dark, so he named me Chao Mo, hehe..."
Chao Mo is very talkative. Seeing that everyone was interested in him, he immediately took Grandpa Yang aside to talk about his experiences over the years.
