Female-male sex: Salted fish forced to rise to prominence
Chapter 366 Recruiting Veterans
Bai Youan, who was lying on the bed, noticed from the corner of his eye that the way his sister looked at Su Yu was very different. He was very familiar with this look.
But no matter what, Su Yu is better than Bai Mufan. When Bai Youan thought of Bai Mufan, his eyes were full of frost, but then he concealed the coldness in his eyes.
After Su Yu walked out the door, he planned to ride his horse to Weiyang Street for a few laps before coming back, otherwise bringing the medicine back too quickly would arouse suspicion.
He jumped on the horse and shouted, "Gee!" After the horse ran a little further away, Su Yu took out the shop contract from the space. He wanted to take a look at the layout of the shop so that he could design the interior decoration himself.
But when he took a closer look, he found that there were three contracts. He thought there were only two shops. This was a pleasant surprise.
Su Yu compared the address on the contract and found that the shop was located on Weiyang Street. Weiyang Street is the most prosperous main street in the capital, and every inch of land is worth a lot of money. Most people want to buy shops here, but no one is willing to sell them.
Su Yu took out the shop keys and went in one by one to inspect the three shops. All three shops were good, one big shop and two small shops.
But even a small shop has two storefronts and a second floor, and there are rooms behind the shop for rest. Not to mention the big ones, they are big enough to open a restaurant.
As Su Yu watched, he sighed in his heart, it was generous, really generous, worthy of being a reward from the emperor. Just a little water sprinkled by the boss's subordinates was enough for him to struggle for several years.
After looking around the shop, Su Yu calculated the time and thought it was almost time to go back.
Then he took out the large medicine box that Xiao Buwei had given him last time from the space, closed the door of the shop, and rode towards the general's mansion.
After giving the medicine box to Xiao Buwei, Su Yu, Bai Yiling and others left the room and waited outside.
It was not until this moment that Bai Yiling realized and asked Su Yu, "Mr. Su, why do you always wear a mask?"
Su Yu, “…”
This question is asked everywhere I go.
Su Yu smiled awkwardly and said, "I did something wrong while practicing martial arts, which led to my disfigurement. I'm afraid of scaring others."
Bai Yiling asked worriedly, "Oh, have you asked Master Xiao to treat you?"
"It can be cured, but the medicine needed is hard to find, and it can't be cured yet."
Bai Yiling frowned and asked, "What medicine do you need?"
"They said they wanted the Tianshan Snow Lotus from the northern border and the Mist Flower from the southern border."
Bai Yiling's heroic brows furrowed even tighter, "It is rumored that the Tianshan Snow Lotus in the northern border will only bloom under the scorching sun in winter, and it must be picked when it blooms. The flowering period is only a short day, and after being picked, it must be preserved in the cold jade stone that is abundant in the northern border."
When Su Yu heard this, he thought, damn, that’s going to be troublesome.
Then Bai Yiling said: "The mist flower is even rarer. It is rumored to grow in the mist forest in southern Xinjiang, but there is perpetual miasma there all year round, and all kinds of snakes, insects and poisonous creatures are prevalent."
Su Yu, "...", he was really afraid of snakes, but he could only nod and respond, "Then these two medicinal herbs are indeed quite rare."
Su Yu sighed in his heart. It seemed that no matter whether he took the path of space to accumulate merit, or took the path of miracle doctor to find medicinal materials, both paths would be full of difficulties.
When the atmosphere became awkward for a moment, Bai Yiling added, "I haven't thanked you enough for designing the wheelchair. My third brother and the veterans in the mansion all said it's very useful."
"If we support the veterans, the annual expenses should be quite high, right?" Although it was a question, Su Yu said it in a positive tone.
Bai Yiling nodded. "Indeed, these two hundred veterans require a large sum of money every year, but they have no children, and some of them are veterans who followed my father. This is the obligation of the General's Mansion."
Su Yu suggested, "I opened a workshop in Taohua County. If they are willing, I would like to hire them to do the work. The monthly salary is one or two taels of silver. The work is not difficult. Even those with mobility problems can do it. Besides, they are all good at martial arts. It would be boring for them to stay at home like this. It would be better for them to come to my place and learn martial arts from me."
Hearing Su Yu say this, Bai Yiling excitedly grabbed Su Yu's arm, "Is this true?"
The old soldiers their family supports were all good fighters on the battlefield, but war is cruel and they had to retire when they were injured. They would be so happy if they could have a job.
Bai Yiling suggested: "The house my father arranged for them is not far from here. Why don't we ask them what they want."
Su Yu responded with a smile, "Okay." He was also a little curious and wanted to see what the situation was.
At this moment, Bai Yiling suddenly realized that she was still holding Su Yu's hand tightly. Her face turned red instantly and she quickly let go of her hand, as if that hand would burn her.
The two walked side by side without saying a word. After about a cup of tea, Bai Yiling led Su Yu to a house.
The house looked quite quaint. The stone steps at the entrance were a little worn, showing the traces of time. As soon as Su Yu stepped into the yard, he saw an old man sweeping the floor.
The old man was about forty-eight or forty-nine years old, with a slightly hunched figure, but in good spirits. As soon as he saw Bai Yiling, he came up to her with a smile on his face and greeted her warmly: "Miss Yiling is here."
However, when his eyes fell on Su Yu, who came with Bai Yiling, the smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by undisguised curiosity and doubt.
He stared at Su Yu with wide eyes and asked bluntly, "Who are you, young man? Why are you wearing a mask?"
Bai Yiling's heart tightened, and she thought to herself that it was not good. Her daughter's identity was exposed so quickly. She looked at Su Yu awkwardly, but found that Su Yu's eyes did not show much surprise, but seemed very calm.
Su Yu calmly bowed to the old man and said humbly, "Hello, uncle. I'm Su Yu, a friend of Miss Bai. As for this mask, I wear it because my face is disfigured and I don't want to scare others."
At this moment, Bai Yiling was also very curious. When did he know that she was a girl?
Liu Sheng raised his voice and said without any concealment: "What's the big deal? People like us who have fought on the battlefield have all been stabbed a few times. What kind of tragic situation have we not seen? I'm not afraid, just take off your mask."
Seeing Liu Sheng's heroic look, Su Yu felt embarrassed to continue being shy, so she responded readily, "Okay then." Before she finished speaking, Su Yu quickly took off the mask.
Liu Sheng took a closer look and said with a smile, "It's okay, it's not ugly."
Su Yu felt helpless when he heard this. The implication was that he was ugly.
Seeing this, Bai Yiling couldn't help but sigh, "So the injury is so serious, no wonder he has to wear a mask."
At this moment, several more veterans gathered around. One of them had difficulty walking and limped, another had a broken arm, and another came in a wheelchair. These people came forward, bowed to Bai Yiling, and said in unison, "Miss Yiling."
Seeing this, Bai Yiling hurriedly introduced to Su Yu: "This is Uncle Liu Sheng. He used to be a scout, but he retired because he had a hidden injury." Then, she introduced several other elderly people to Su Yu one by one.
Su Yu also hurriedly saluted the elders and said, "Hello uncles, I am Su Yu."
After this introduction, Su Yu had a general understanding of the situation of these veterans.
The old soldier with a limp was called Zhang Han. He had been promoted to centurion in the past and was said to be very skilled in martial arts. However, he retired because of his leg injury.
The man with a broken arm is called Zhao Shuo. He is good at repairing various tools, armor, horse hooves, ladders, and even repairing houses are not a problem for him.
The person in the wheelchair is called Cheng Yun. He was General Bai’s personal attendant in the past. He injured his leg while trying to save General Bai.
Then Su Yu explained his purpose and invited everyone to work in the factory. Everyone was very happy to hear this and expressed their willingness to work.
