Chapter 135: Joining the Caravan

quickly,

Xiao Yan let her know who was better at martial arts between him and Fei Yu.

As Zhou Lingling was dragged by the collar through the woods, she thought to herself: I will never be curious again in this life...

After about half a cup of tea, the wind blowing on my face finally disappeared.

Xiao Yan stopped, looked around, and then put the dizzy person on the ground.

Zhou Lingling hugged a nearby tree, closed her eyes and began to howl:

"Woo woo woo, mom, I want to go home..."

Xiao Yan was immediately amused by her.

"Is it that scary?"

Zhou Lingling opened her eyes and glared at him: "What do you think!"

This guy is having trouble with the back of his neck, right?

Master Feiyu at least held her arm and flew with her, but he just held her in front to block the wind!

Damn it!

Seeing that her face had turned pale, Xiao Yan felt a little sorry.

"Okay, okay, it's all my fault. I'll be more careful next time."

Then he got down to business: "How long will it take you?"

Zhou Lingling humphed, "It will only take a moment. When will the caravan arrive?"

Xiao Yan looked at the sun and took something out from his arms.

Red fireworks exploded above the woods.

He explained: "This is the fireworks we use for communication. If nothing unexpected happens, they will arrive soon."

Yesterday he sent a message, asking the caravan to wait on a section of the official road outside the county town after they had finished their shopping in the provincial capital.

Zhou Lingling didn't waste any time either.

They chose an open area in the middle and started to move the food out.

Xiao Yan subconsciously turned around, with his back to Zhou Lingling, and looked around alertly.

Seeing this, Zhou Lingling didn't say anything and continued to move out.

potato.

This is the most.

Zhou Lingling bought the sacks herself and simply emptied the sacks in someone else's store. The shopkeeper kept asking her what she wanted to put the sacks in.

A warehouse.

Two warehouses.

……

Real clearance sale.

After a while, a small hill appeared in front of Zhou Lingling.

Looking at the few remaining warehouses of food in the space, Zhou Lingling patted the non-existent dust on his hands and turned to ask Xiao Yan:

"Do you think this is enough?"

Xiao Yan turned around, and even though he was mentally prepared, the sack in front of him, which was more than a meter tall, still shocked him deeply.

"These……"

"They're all potatoes." Zhou Lingling took over the conversation.

"There's probably about 20,000 pounds here! I wonder how much the caravan can take away?"

She can add more.

Xiao Yan was silent for a moment, then said, "This caravan goes to the northern border and even the grasslands all year round. There are about a hundred people and more than twenty carts. Each trip can carry up to 50,000 kilograms of food."

Fifty thousand kilograms.

Zhou Lingling said she understood and took out another fifty bags of sweet potatoes.

As for corn, it is not in its growing season in northern Xinjiang now, so she needs to see the actual situation first. Only sweet potatoes and potatoes can be planted in a trial in the spring.

"Okay, that's enough."

Seeing that she wanted to continue moving out, Xiao Yan quickly stopped her.

"Have you forgotten? The caravan still needs to take some things with it back to the capital."

The northern border is not only short of food, but also short of clothing.

The caravans under his command would travel from south to north several times a year, especially in the winter months, and they would always bring back some food, winter clothes, and salt.

Zhou Lingling: "Oh, why didn't you say so earlier!"

"Then... can I take these away?"

"Ah."

Xiao Yan said, "Under normal circumstances, a cart could carry 2,000 kilograms, so we could carry more. But now that winter has arrived in the Northern Frontier, the wind and snow are raging, the weather is cold, and the roads are slippery. A cart can only carry 1,000 to 1,500 kilograms."

"I told them to leave twenty empty cars. These are probably what we can take away."

What he didn't say was.

No matter how much there was, they knew it was food and they would carry it back to northern Xinjiang even if they had to carry it themselves.

Zhou Lingling felt relieved.

He squatted on the ground, waiting bored, and chatted with Xiao Yan in a random manner.

"Is winter in northern Xinjiang very cold?"

Xiao Yan replied, "Yes, it's very cold, with strong winds that scrape your bones. If you go there, don't go out unless you have something to do."

Just by listening, Zhou Lingling felt her bones shiver.

"Tsk, then I have to ask Meixiang to make more thick coats."

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "I'll get you some wolf skins when the time comes. They're warmer than cotton-padded jackets."

Wolf skin?

Zhou Lingling nodded without thinking.

Half a cup of tea passed quickly.

Fuguier told Zhou Lingling, "Five hundred meters behind us, a large group of people are heading in this direction. They should be the caravan that the master is waiting for."

"Master, there are no shadows around this time!"

After hearing this, Zhou Lingling stood up by holding the tree trunk.

The shadows that Fuguier was talking about were those secret guards hiding in the dark.

I didn't expect Xiao Yan to even send those people away...

Don't want her to be exposed?

At this moment, Xiao Yan actually looked up in that direction and reminded her in a calm voice: "Here they come."

Zhou Lingling was even more surprised.

She tried to listen carefully, but could only hear the sound of the wind in the woods and the occasional flapping of birds' wings as they flew by.

What a god!

After a while,

A sound of orderly footsteps came from afar.

Zhou Lingling saw a group of people dressed in martial arts style appear in front of her.

Seeing Xiao Yan and the mountain-high sack behind him, everyone paused in unison, then quickened their pace at the same time.

"master!"

The middle-aged man in the lead knelt down in front of Xiao Yan with tears in his eyes.

Others also knelt down.

Zhou Lingling silently moved her small body and hid behind Xiao Yan.

This way, my life won’t be shortened, right?

Xiao Yan nodded and reached out to help the man up.

"Uncle Lu."

The middle-aged man stood up and said, "Master, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have come to the Southern Territory to take risks..." and was seriously injured.

It was he who suggested going to the Southern Region to find food, but he didn't expect that the master would come in person.

He had been traveling from the Southern Region to the Northern Frontier for six years, and every year he would bring a large amount of food back to the Northern Frontier from the Southern Region. Therefore, he naturally believed that the Southern Region was rich in products and there would be a large amount of reserves even in bad years.

But I never expected that after the summer, the Southern Region would be...

Xiao Yan patted his shoulder indifferently.

"It's all in the past. If you gain something, you have to lose something."

If he had not been injured this time, he would not have discovered that there was a traitor among his friends, and he would not have met the Zhou family.

God's reward to him was so great that it would be enough to let him die again.

"Let's not waste time. Uncle Tie and the others are still waiting over there. Let's load the truck and get going as soon as possible."

Lu Jing's gaze then returned to the sacks behind him, his tone becoming even more excited:

"Master, is this the food that boy and his men are guarding?"

Xiao Yan nodded and turned sideways to introduce the girl to them, but the people around him disappeared.

He turned around and saw the sneaky figure right behind him.

Xiao Yan smiled helplessly: "What are you doing hiding here?"

Zhou Lingling blinked: "I'm afraid of shortening my lifespan."

She's still a baby!

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment before he realized what she was saying.

Superiority and inferiority, hierarchical order, these things that were normal to him seemed a little different to the little girl.

"If they don't kneel to you, your life won't be shortened." Even if they did kneel, she could bear it.
