It was a quiet night in the bamboo house, but Nong Yao couldn't sleep no matter what.

In the past few years, he has opened a shop in Qiyuanzhou to welcome customers. Although the business is not very prosperous, it is still decent. The family has a good life. They don't have to be like other people who have to work all day long to make a living.

But Yu, I have two brothers in my family. Compared with them, I can be said to be a man of the hour in Dongzhai. The two brothers are synonymous with losers. Even at a very young age, they have still accomplished nothing. It’s not that they can’t do it.

, but there is really no way out in the mountains, and the gold that will shine again can only be buried in the soil when it comes here.

But the ferocious South Vietnamese made all this a thing of the past.

Nong Yao's family began to wander and became homeless again. He sent his wife and daughter away and asked them to return to their hometown in Dongzhai in the northwest. It was an inaccessible place and no one could be found anywhere.

Over the years, he has also thought about getting ahead, but it is already very difficult to survive in this world. How could he still think about getting ahead? By his age, many people have become grandfathers. What else can he think about in life?

When circumstances change, it means you can't live with yourself.

Now there was a new path before him.

Liang Chuan had weighed all the pros and cons for him, and he couldn't help but nod his head. The result was the same. If he didn't leave, he would end up dead. The best way out was to work for him, join the chieftain, and help them sell goods.

Salt.

Nong Yao thought about it all night and finally accepted this fact.

Liang Chuan's momentum is that of a powerful man in the world. How can one be stable in troubled times? Only a man like this who licks blood on his knife head can finally turn around! And what he is most worried about is that Liang Chuan reveals that a South Vietnamese soldier died in his shop.

This way he will have no way to escape!

At dawn, Nong Yao came to Liang Chuan with two dark circles under his eyes.

Liang Chuan looked at Nong Yao's dejected look and said jokingly: "Why didn't you sleep well last night? You are so out of energy. Or is there something on your mind that you haven't figured out?"

Nong Yao said to Liang Chuan with a sudden heart: "I have figured it out, Qingye, I will follow your lead."

"Don't worry, if you call me brother, I will come down and call me father. Do you want to help me celebrate my birthday next year?"

"Brother Di!"

After Liang Chuan's second time travel, his mind seemed to have matured a lot. Although he had no impression, he was more wary of people. He would not trust these people easily, except for his daughter Ah Yue.

"Brother doesn't just yell randomly. Since we have become brothers, according to the way we do it, brothers share the same difficulties. No one can live in isolation. Where is your hometown, brother? Take me to see it?"

What Liang Chuan did was a truly life-threatening act. Naturally, he could not leave a loophole for others to steal his own escape route.

When people in ancient times wanted to cut off other people's escape routes, they meant cutting off their roots. If they had scruples, they would naturally obey orders.

When Nong Yao heard that Liang Chuan was going to their hometown, he really trembled from the depths of his soul.

In order to leave a way out, he had asked his wife and children to return to Xidong Cave first. Unexpectedly, Liang Chuan directly wanted to know his lair...

Both Android and Apple are available.】

What a ruthless person. He knows about his hometown. If one day he has second thoughts, he should be prepared to die. Not only will he die, but also the whole family in the mountain will die!

After thinking about it all night, he had already expected such a result. A trace of determination flashed in Nong Yao's eyes, and he made up his mind: "My hometown is in the most remote place in the northwest of Guangnan, but if my eldest brother wants to go, I will naturally

You should lead the way."

Good boy, Liang Chuan said: "Then we are more respectful than obedient. It just so happens that we are tired of staying at home these days. Let's go to your hometown and see the customs and customs!"

Liang Chuan patted Nong Yao on the shoulder. This boy was really ready to expose his background to him. This is how business should be done. Otherwise, everyone would be hiding their secrets. As soon as the suspicion is revealed, it will become more and more serious in the future, until the end.

It can only end hastily, no human life is light.

Liang Chuan had already thought about it. If this kid followed him, he might know what trump cards he had. If he didn't find his lair, how would he be able to control him in the future?

When Ah Yue heard what Liang Chuan and Nong Yao said, she immediately stood up: "Are we going out again?"

Liang Chuan glanced at the little girl and said, "How about you stay at home this time, Ah Yue, and I go out with your Uncle Nong?"

When the little girl heard that she was going to stay alone at home, she immediately became unhappy: "No, daddy, I will go wherever you go!"

Liang Chuan pretended to sigh helplessly. After getting along with this little guy day and night, his relationship has long been to the point where it is better than his own. He himself is reluctant to take the child with him to suffer, but he is even more worried about leaving it at home. Now they are

The person who committed the crime might come to your door one day. How could you let Ah Yue keep it by herself?

"Then pack your things, we'll be leaving soon!"

What else is there in the house? The only valuable thing is salt. The only thing you can bring is clothes. You can pack it in a roll and you are ready to go!

Ah Yue and Nong Yao handed over the remaining sheep at home to the villagers, and Liang Chuan paid some money, which they regarded as hard-earned money these days. The three of them glanced at the hollow bamboo building, and the water at the foot of the mountain was still flowing.

Stop, but they have to embark on a new journey.

From Guangnan to the northwest, on the border with Yunnan, you can see the mountains in the distance with the naked eye. The tops of the mountains are covered with white snow that never melts all year round.

There are also rivers here, but after the snow melts, the snow water cuts the valley deep and wide like a knife. The current is so fast that only fish can survive in it, and human beings cannot resist such a majestic force.

There is no waterway, so we have to trek continuously on the 11th road.

Fortunately, Liang Chuan was not a stingy person. He had money in hand, so he decisively picked up a few Yunnan horses at the horse market in nearby Xidong as soon as he left Guangyuan.

The strange thing is that Liang Chuan seemed to have learned to ride a horse. As soon as he sat on the horse, his muscles reflexively matched the horse's pace to avoid suffering on the horse's back.

This was not the first time that Liang Chuan had this feeling. When he was killing people in Nongyao's restaurant in Qiyuan Prefecture, he felt that he was as familiar with the knife as he was with chopsticks. The same goes for riding horses now, three people and two horses

There were horses and a green mule, and the mule's back was filled with nearly two hundred kilograms of refined salt.

In order to deceive others, the mules also carried some grain on their backs.

I don’t know how long it took for Nongyao’s family to escape home from Qiyuanzhou. Only Liang Chuan knew his suffering. Although he had a horse on his hip, he was still exhausted and it took him half a day to get over it.

A mountain leaves the Yujiang River basin.

Nong Yao didn't lie to Liang Chuan. His hometown is in the so-called Tianzhou in western Guangxi, which is already one of the most remote areas. It has fields in name but actually does not have a few acres of fields. There are no cash crops in the mountains, and there is not even much land.

The only things that are abundant are towering ancient trees and rugged mountains.

Liang Chuan's understanding of poverty was once again refreshed. The government no longer had the intention to open roads into the mountains. The roads they took were mostly trails washed out by mountain torrents or flat areas by the river. Nong Yao led two people and had to hold each other's hands.

The green mule is holding a hatchet in the other hand, clearing a path as he walks!

It’s no wonder that the imperial court was ineffective. Most of these areas were outside the Song Dynasty and had no control over them. If the people didn’t pay taxes and grains to the imperial court, how could the imperial court invest in them? Most of the people in these places were barbarians and they were fattened up.

They are a scourge to the Central Plains, and they understand this truth better than anyone else!

The primitive area with no roads is full of vegetation and mountains. Going up and down the mountains repeatedly, except for mules and horses, almost makes people faint. The most unbearable thing for Liang Chuan is the mosquitoes in the woods!

Liang Chuan no longer knew how many flying mosquitoes he had swatted to death, but he still let these ferocious little things bite them out one after another. He had never felt so many flying mosquitoes in the Guangyuan Bamboo House. What happened when he usually looked at a lush mountain forest?

So many flying mosquitoes.

If a person had no other tools, he would be sucked into dried meat if he lived in this forest for just one night!

"It would be great if there were two coils of mosquito-repellent incense so that you could experience what it means to eliminate mosquitoes without a trace!"

Ah Yue had never seen mosquito repellent incense before, and Nong Yao immediately echoed after hearing this: "Mosquito incense? This thing is valuable. Although it is not as valuable as agarwood and other spices, one plate can only be used for one night, and it costs several pennies. Calculate that.

It’s also an extremely luxurious item!”

What he was thinking was, you are worthy of being from the chieftain's house, and your living expenses are so high. If you put it in an ordinary family, who could afford it?

Liang Chuan said it casually, but when Nong Yao said this, he immediately sensed something was wrong and asked: "You... know about mosquito coils?"

Seeing that Liang Chuan was a little surprised, Nong Yao was naturally a little proud. He immediately introduced it and said: "Mosquito-repellent incense is a new thing that has only become fashionable in recent years. It is said that it was passed down from Fujian Road. It is sold at a very high price. I am also

When opening a restaurant, sometimes customers need to stay in the hotel to use it, so I have heard that a small circle is only enough to burn for one night, and a circle costs several pennies, which is comparable to a piece of meat money. We people like this

It’s all a pain in the ass, how can I afford it?”

A circle? Could it really be the kind of mosquito coil he had seen? Liang Chuan was afraid that the two people were talking about different things, so he immediately reached out and made signs in the air.

In order to take care of the business of the store, Nong Yao also bought a few rounds from Han merchants to test the effect. He had to admire that these Han people knew how to do business. After ordering a round, there were indeed fewer mosquitoes in the room, and the customers were all happy.

I praise the environment here for its good environment and no mosquitoes to bother people!

"Brother, I have seen mosquito coils before and bought them. Isn't it the kind of thing that smells faintly when burned? Even mosquitoes are afraid of it!"
