Chapter 4 Bronze Token
"Dad, are you saying that my grandpa runs an escort agency? Should we take the people from the escort agency with us? Wouldn't it be safer to travel with the people from the escort agency?"
Shen Youyou thought that anyone who could come to the escort agency must be good in skills and might even know martial arts.
"My girl, you are still too naive. You can't judge a person by his appearance. They are just employed by the employer. You also said that they all know martial arts. If they are short of food, the people in Shenjia Village will be in danger!
But Uncle Li, Da Hu and Er Hu will follow us. The three of them also know martial arts. The main thing is that one of them was saved by your grandfather, and the other two were raised by your grandfather.
Be loyal to your grandfather!
By the way, you guys should think about how to carry our money? Your grandpa has saved a lot of money over the years, right? "
"How much is a lot of money?" Shen Youyou asked with sparkling eyes.
"More than three thousand taels, I think. We have about two hundred taels at home. It's not easy to carry this much money!"
"Even if we change it to gold, it would take more than 30 kilograms, which is really hard to carry. We don't have much space. If it's not possible, we can change it to silver notes. Is there any kind that can be exchanged nationwide?"
Shen Zhiqiu nodded, indicating that he understood: "You guys stay at home, I'll go to the escort agency to quickly deal with things, you guys prepare some dry food that can be stored at home. And then pack up your things."
After seeing Shen Zhiqiu off, the mother and daughter went to the kitchen to see what ingredients were available at home.
I saw a bag of flour and half a bag of rice in the granary.
"Mom, it seems that this family has pretty good food. It was really not easy to afford white flour and rice in ancient times." Shen Youyou sighed as she looked at the grain jar.
Li Jingshu nodded perfunctorily. She was in a state of confusion at the moment. When she heard Old Shen talking about this ancient father, she felt sad.
Modern parents also have a daughter who lives with their family in their later years. Later, she dies when she is old. Although they are sad, at least they still serve her by her bedside.
This ancient father had never been taken care of for a day, and when he came through, it was already the seventh day after his death. People still saved up so much money for him.
Oh! I wonder if the original owner's family has reunited with him, so that he won't be too lonely on the road to the underworld.
Shen Youyou saw that her mother was worried, and comforted her: "Grandpa in ancient times would not be alone, the original incarnations would definitely be with him. Since we are living for them, let's help them take care of the Shen family!"
Li Jingshu looked at her daughter in surprise. She didn't expect that she knew what she was thinking.
She smiled at her daughter and said, "Well, you are hungry, right? Let me fry some dough sticks for you."
After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to knead the dough.
Shen Youyou saw rice and soybeans.
He picked up the ten pounds of soybeans and went to another iron pot, planning to fry some rice and soybeans so that he could eat them on the road.
After Shen Youyou skillfully lit the fire, she poured the soybeans into the pot. As she stirred the soybeans with the spatula, they jumped in the pot, making crisp sounds.
She controlled the heat precisely, and the aroma of beans gradually spread.
When she started frying the rice, Li Jingshu had already started putting fried dough sticks into the pan. The dough sticks rolled in the hot oil and soon became golden and crispy.
Speaking of Shen Zhiqiu, when he arrived at the escort agency, the agency was empty.
"father"
At this time, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes walked towards him quickly, holding a boy who looked about four or five years old in his arms.
The boy was very handsome and cute. This was his son Shen Luming.
Shen Zhiqiu calmly stepped forward, took the boy in his arms, and asked him, "Where are the others?"
The young man is Li Erhu. He and Li Dahu are both orphans who were adopted by their ancient father-in-law since childhood.
"Oh! Don't mention it, my brother-in-law. The brother who went to the east to escort the caravan has returned today.
They said they were recruiting soldiers there, and each family could only keep one male child under the age of 10.
The rest had to be conquered, and as soon as they heard the news, they all ran away.
We have to run too. We have almost packed our things. Can you go and see if there is anything else we need to take?"
As the young man spoke in rapid succession, Shen Zhiqiu secretly thought that it was bad and that this escort agency might not be able to be sold.
He quickly carried his son inside and asked Uncle Li who came over, "How's your packing going? How much stuff do you have left?"
"It's almost done. The weapons are loaded onto the carts, but we still have 50 horses. During the chaos, some cunning people took away a few horses."
After hearing what Uncle Li said, Shen Zhiqiu nodded. Now was not the time to pursue that matter.
"Just take it away. We can't take it away with so many horses. Let's go and dig out the silver that my father-in-law hid first."
They walked directly to Mr. Li's room, and Da Hu quickly went to get a shovel, then trotted after them.
Dahu and Erhu worked very efficiently. They lifted the bed as soon as they came up and started digging under the bed.
"Son-in-law, we can take the horse away. These two guys can train horses.
Then the three of us will drive the carriage, and Da Hu will ride the horse, and we can take these horses on the road.
If you want to take the villagers with you, you will definitely need horses!" Uncle Li said after a moment's hesitation.
Shen Zhiqiu looked at the two brothers in surprise. He didn't expect that they had this ability.
While they were talking, the two men had already lifted the large box out of the pit.
Shen Zhiqiu was still wondering why there was only one box, but Erhu quickly opened it. Wow, there were so many shiny golden cakes!
He saw a small wooden box and opened it with his hand.
There was only a letter and a copper token in the wooden box. There was a word "Fu" on the front and a pattern of a unicorn stepping on auspicious clouds on the back.
Just as Shen Zhiqiu was about to pick up the letter to read it, he was stopped by Uncle Li.
He looked up and saw Uncle Li said seriously:
"Sir, this letter is for the owner of the token."
Shen Zhiqiu's heart skipped a beat. Why did he feel like there was something wrong here?
At this time, Uncle Li leaned over and whispered a few words in Shen Zhiqiu's ear.
Shen Zhiqiu's heart started beating wildly. He moved his throat and closed the wooden box calmly.
He asked Dahu and Erhu to carry the big wooden box onto the carriage. He held his son in his arms and took a last look at the escort agency.
At this time, Shen Youyou was making a kettle. She found several gourds in this house and wanted to make them into a kettle.
"Don't bother. There are no tools here. How are you going to do it?"
Li Jingshu had already packed the things she was going to take, and when she found some bran and lime, she decided to make preserved eggs from the eggs at home, which would be convenient to eat and easy to store.
She watched her daughter making a fire starter and then a kettle. Making a fire starter was easy as she had all the materials at home, but what about the kettle?
"This is easy. I just found a lot of pebbles, put them into the gourd, and shook it hard. That's it..."
As Shen Youyou spoke, she shook the gourd in her hand vigorously, making a "rustling" sound.
After shaking it for five or six minutes, she poured out a lot of gourd seeds and dried pulp from the gourd, and of course the pebbles that had been put in.
Shen Youyou picked up a small stone, put it into the gourd and continued to shake it.
After repeating this several times, finally there was nothing left but stones, so I poured water in again and shook it to clean it.
"You're a city kid, where did you learn these weird things?"
Li Jingshu didn't expect that her daughter really had a way, so she asked out loud.
“I saw it on the video!”
Finally, she used a suitable small bamboo pole as a stopper to connect the gourd head and body, and the job was done!
