Chapter 225

The grain team transporting grain is very large. On both sides, there are more than 200 officers dressed up as soldiers and guards. Each soldier holds a cold shining gun in his hand. Even if someone is greedy for this batch of grain and wants to take advantage of the fire, they have to weigh their skills.

The food delivery cook was so tired that he was sweating all over, his face had been choked into sauce red, and his sweat had already wet his clothes.

Seeing a tea shop next to the post station in front, I was overjoyed.

"Jun ye, the big guy has been transporting grain for so long and is tired. Why don't you take a rest in front and then go on the road?"

The chef head hey smiled and came forward to communicate with the soldier leader guarding the grain.

They are all flesh and blood, not made of steel. So much food is transported from Meng county. The cooks are very tired physically and mentally. However, these soldiers on horses are blind. Whoever walks slowly is a whip.

Fortunately, Hejian county is close at hand and can be reached in more than half a day.

Otherwise, if we continue like this, sooner or later someone will be tired to death.

The soldier leader in charge of escorting food is the squire who was deliberately spared by Jiang Pengji.

He was eager to commit crimes and meritorious deeds. After receiving the task of escorting food, he squeezed the strength of the food delivery cook all the time and urged them to hurry day and night in the hope of rescuing Meng Da as soon as possible... Seeing the day by day, he became more and more nervous. He always felt that late would change. In addition, he was eager for work. Naturally, he could not see the fatigue on the food delivery cook's face.

Even if he saw it, he wouldn't care.

Just a few cooks. Can they be compared with Meng's two husbands?

If something happens to Meng Da because these people are slow, who will bear the responsibility then?

However, now he is only half a day away from Hejian County, and his anxiety has eased a lot. In addition, he also feels a little tired. He simply waved his hand according to the chef's leader's words and let the whole grain team rest for half an hour.

When he was promised, the chef leader, if pardoned, immediately shouted to the chef behind the team.

"All hands and feet are more agile. There is a tea shop in front. First go there to have a rest and have a bowl of tea."

As soon as they heard this, the power came in an instant. The long grain team was like a creeping insect and slowly approached the tea shop.

Tea shops often receive caravans from south to north, and they have seen big scenes.

The landlady quickly put on a smiling face and greeted some soldiers who had entered the tea shop, while the other soldiers found a place to sit outside.

Seeing that the landlady was busy, Jiang Pengji got up in the eyes of Qi Guan, with a kind and honest smile on her face.

"Landlady, why don't I help you... Hey, I'm too anxious to go out. I forgot to bring copper."

The landlady looked at her up and down, smiled and looked very enthusiastic, "I'm just too busy here. Go and bring some bowls of tea to the military master outside... Do it well. If you're clumsy, you'll have to double the compensation..."

Jiang Pengji smiled and said, "don't worry. I go to the ground every day at home. My hands and feet are numb."

If it's a little mean, it's estimated that it's time to settle accounts. I can't even afford a penny of tea. Why do you come here?

However, Jiang Pengji could see at a glance that although the landlady had a mean face, she was very warm and considerate. Sometimes when travelers have no money to pay for tea, she will generously avoid it.

In cold weather, they even cook ginger soup to keep people away from the cold.

Qi Guan was stunned and watched Jiang Pengji go out of the tea shop with a plate of tea. She easily joined the grain team. In the name of delivering tea, she secretly observed the things on the grain truck. Her face was filled with a warm smile. She was like a different person.

Is this... Liu Xi, the son of Liu Jun Shou, whom he knew?

Some people believe that she is a wild boy from the farm, okay?

On one side, Qi officials opened their eyes, while on the other side, Jiang Pengji gained a lot.

Relying on the opportunity of delivering a large bowl of tea, she seemed to complain and gossip, and slowly got important information from several cooks.

Of course, the cooks who leaked the news didn't realize this. After all, there were soldiers escorting food around them.

"Hey, I said you were a wild doll. What did curiosity redo?" A soldier looked up and poured down a bowl of tea. At last, he felt a little thirsty and asked Jiang Pengji to send him another bowl. "Bring me another bowl. I'm so thirsty..."

Another soldier smiled and said, "I haven't seen the world. It doesn't matter if people are curious to ask."

Anyway, I didn't ask any important questions. Just answer.

Jiang Pengji responded with kindness, "two bowls of tea, two wait a minute."

Qi Guan asked Jiang Pengji to look around quickly. If he didn't know that this person had other purposes, he might have misunderstood... However, it's hard for a noble son of a noble family to do so in order to obtain intelligence.

He lost his smile. Half an hour later, Jiang Pengji had the chance to sit down. The grain team had started again.

"You really... Why..." Qi Guan asked me to cry and laugh.

"If you don't, it's hard to get close." Jiang Pengji had been busy for so long, and her mouth was dry. After drinking a bowl of tea, she felt cooler. She whispered to Qi guanrang, "there is no problem with the grain of the grain team, and it is not two thousand stones, but more than three thousand stones! Meng is really generous. I just don't know whether they can laugh in two days."

Qi official asked to raise his eyebrows and said in surprise, "I only saw you busy talking to people, and never really close to the grain truck under the custody of soldiers. How can you know that there is no problem with the grain... Even the specific number is clear..."

Jiang Pengji said, "it's not simple. Look at the depth of the wheel. The weight of rice grain and sediment in the same bag is different. If I set up those cooks, I can roughly calculate the total amount of grain in their grain team..."

Although Jiang Pengji is busy, she is actually multitasking.

She added in a low voice, "of course, I took the opportunity to approach the grain team, not to see the grain..."

Qi official let suspicious for a moment, close to the grain team, the main purpose is not to see the grain?

What's that for?

He frowned slightly and began to recall Jiang Pengji's actions during this period, hoping to guess her real intention.

"Don't continue to think about it. I want to send something. If I don't take this opportunity to send it, it's inconvenient to do it at other times and it's easy to arouse suspicion..." Jiang Pengji smiled and drank tea. She looked very comfortable, like a successful fox.

Give one... Thing?
