I don't want to be king

After Lin Yi shook his head, he put his hands together into a trumpet outfit, and shouted, "Girl, how do you sell water chestnuts? Give me a dozen catties!"

Seeing this, Jiao Zhong waved to the guards on both sides. This is a decent fisherman's girl, she doesn't know how to do it, they just need to hide in the dark and watch, without too much nervousness.

Chapter 418 Guan Xiaoqi

The water system in the north is not as good as that in the south of the Yangtze River where the rivers and streams intersect, but Ankang City is indeed an exception.

As the capital of Daliang Kingdom, there are many rivers and lakes here, and the water network is densely covered, otherwise it would not be able to support the population of several million people in a radius of hundreds of miles!

Eating and drinking Lazard, which one does not need water?

Therefore, there are many lakes and waterways around Ankang City.

The North Canal is one of them.

Lin Yi likes fishing here very much.

There are many lotus roots and water chestnuts along the tributaries of the North Canal and the lakes where they gather. Although it is not easy to get hooks, they can often produce large quantities.

As the leader of the guards, he prefers Lin Yi to come here.

The Grand Canal was excavated by hand, straight from north to south, and is the artery of north-south communication in Daliang State. The river is wide and deep, and large ships can be used.

For the personal safety of He Wangfu, as soon as He Jixiang entered the capital, he assigned two large boats to He Wangfu's guards, specially for He Wangfu's use.

Now the two big ships are lying quietly not far away.

There is everything in the big boat, as long as you ask the prince, they can get it in time.

Occasionally, when the prince and prince were tired, they would put down the boat in time and send him and the prince to rest.

The most important thing is that the guards are relieved a lot when the big ship crosses the tributary.

But any suspicious and untrustworthy ships will never be allowed to appear in front of Prince He.

Even the eagles that fly in the sky and the beasts on the ground.

The real "birds fly away in a thousand mountains, and people in a thousand paths disappear".

Now, a small boat picking water chestnuts and lotus roots can suddenly appear, which means that the people on board must be three generations of ancestors who have been checked upside down, and the cleanest can't be more clean.

But those who were born in the face were driven to other places long ago, and there was no chance to enter the estuary.

In short, everything is for the prince and everything for the prince.

Whether it is the imperial court or the Jianghu, they all say that they are the sons of the prince.

Dog legs!

What an irony, what a sad word.

When they knelt down to the prince once, they were surrounded by disdainful faces. The men have gold under their knees, so they can't be considered real men!

When they knelt for the second time, after each promotion, the surroundings were full of envy.

When they knelt for the third time, they all became dragons and phoenixes, and everyone around them hated themselves for not kneeling before the prince earlier.

After understanding the so-called "chicken and dog ascend to heaven", no matter whether it is for "loyalty" or "self", everyone will be dedicated to their duties and dare not slack off.

At this moment, Jiao Zhong was very relieved, and he was not worried at all that there would be people who would be unfavorable to the prince around him.

However, he still didn't dare to stay too far away from Prince He, and led a group of guards to hang on the big tree above Prince He's head, and tried not to let Prince He notice it.

When the woman was holding the bamboo pole and getting closer to Lin Yi, Lin Yi suddenly raised his head, rolled his eyes at Jiao Zhong who was standing on the tree branch, and said, "This girl is the resident next door. I used to go fishing often. I met you, if you are so nervous, you all go to the side.

Don't scare people with your cowardly appearance. "

Normally, he doesn't bother to talk to Jiao Zhong and the others, but occasionally when he is annoying, he will drive them away.

"Yes."

Jiao Zhong was very helpless, he waved his hands to the guards on both sides, and they immediately dispersed around.

"Do you want to eat water chestnut?"

When the boat was still a width away from the shore, it stopped moving forward, but fixed it in the river with a bamboo pole. Looking at the shirtless Lin Yi, he said, "You fish by the river every day, why do you lack water chestnut?"

She is a girl from a fisherman's family, and all the men from a fisherman's family are naked. She is used to seeing Lin Yi like this, and she doesn't feel embarrassed at all.

Lin Yi also liked her non-pretentious attitude, and teased, "Good guy, so you have known me for a long time, but why are you so defensive towards me?

I'm not a bad person. "

After he opened the cabinet and left the palace, he often fished around here. Although he didn't know the residents around here, at least they all knew each other.

Especially the woman in front of him, he is no stranger.

It can be said that he watched him grow up.

When I was young, I was skinny and dark, dressed in rags, and followed a group of boy dolls to herd livestock by the river.

What he didn't expect was that after returning to Ankang City, when they met again, he couldn't believe that a wild girl would grow up so well.

The crystal-like eyeballs rolled around on the wheat-colored face, which was very cute.

What is even more unbelievable is that a girl who grew up with fishermen has such good teeth!

The ladies of the official family, the nobles in the palace, even if they use tooth sticks or bristle toothbrushes every day, they are not so white.

Even Lin Yi himself, in this life, he does not smoke or eat betel nuts, and insists on brushing his teeth with pig bristles every day, just like this, there are still tooth stains!

There is no such thing as this girl!

Really more popular than dead people.

It's not scientific at all that a girl from a poor family can raise such beautiful teeth.

After all, one side supports the other side. Residents around Ankang City do not have wells to use like rich families. Most of them drink river water, so it is difficult for people to maintain good teeth.

"That's certainly not a nice guy,"

The woman suddenly said with certainty, "A lazy man like you, who spends his days fishing and playing instead of doing serious things, my father said, it's rare for a lazy man like you not to starve to death."

"I'm lazy?"

Lin Yi looked down at his muddy feet, and then at his delicate face in the water.

I think this girl must have misunderstood something!

How can there be such a handsome lazy guy in this world?

"I don't do any work all day, what's the use of Guangchang's white skin,"

The woman muttered, "Fortunately, you are not from our village, or you would have been beaten to death long ago."

"Hey, kill me?"

Lin Yile laughed, "Is there still Wang Fa?

What I do and what I don't do doesn't bother anyone, right? "

The woman said with a smile, "An eyesore."

"Your name is Guan Xiaoqi, right?"

The reason why Lin Yi can remember it is because the name is too rustic.

But when people choose a name, if it is a boy, they are willing to ask for favors or pay someone to name it. If it is a woman, they are very casual. Anyway, after they get married, they will all be named so and so, so it is useless to choose a name.

"What do you want to do?"

Guan Xiaoqi pushed the bamboo pole into the water, and the boat moved another foot away from the shore.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "I've been fishing here for so many years, is there anyone around here who doesn't know me?

Have I done anything criminal? "

Guan Xiaoqi said loudly, "Why not!"

Lin Yi asked curiously, "Is there?"

He newly cultivated Liang Law, so he naturally set an example. Besides, his conscience would not allow such things as committing crimes!

Guan Xiaoqi shouted, "You just stole sweet potatoes from Jin Bo's family yesterday!"

"It's really not worth mentioning,"

Lin Yi blushed, and said embarrassingly, "That's because I care about farming, let's see how the sweet potatoes are growing!

The sweet potatoes are still growing there, and I didn't pick them off at all. "

When he saw the sweet potato yesterday, he didn't really want to eat it, it was purely because his hands were itchy and he picked up a little soil.

It turned out that it was too small, so it was finally buried instead of being torn from the vine.

"Hmph, that's because you found that you couldn't eat it,"

Guan Xiaoqi snorted coldly, "If you really pick it off, I will definitely tell Jin Bo!"

"Did you see it on the side?"

Lin Yi said curiously.

He was surrounded by strict guards. If the girl really came to him, he would definitely know about it.

The results are now unknown.

Guan Xiaoqi shook his head and said, "I didn't see it, but since Jin Bo jumped and scolded, I knew someone had picked his sweet potatoes."

Lin Yi asked curiously, "Then why are you so sure it's the sweet potatoes I grilled?"

Guan Xiaoqi said, "Yesterday afternoon, this area belonged to fellow villagers, who else could there be except you, a wicked person?"

Lin Yi said, "Your words are even more incomprehensible, because I am not your fellow countryman, am I wicked?"

Guan Xiaoqi snorted coldly, "The day before yesterday, I saw with my own eyes that you stole my cucumbers!"

"..."

Lin Yi laughed, and said after a long time, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was thirsty for a while, and I couldn't find anything to eat.

You weigh more than ten catties of water chestnut and lotus root for me, and I will count them for you. "

Guan Xiaoqi looked Lin Yi up and down, then teased, "Liar, do you have the money to buy mine?"

"Are you kidding me, am I a poor man?"

As soon as Lin Yi's hand touched the big underpants, he regretted it.

He has no money!

What's more, he doesn't need to bring money when he goes out!

He wanted to let Jiao Zhong who was in the dark come out, but he was afraid that Guan Xiaoqi would be frightened.

After thinking about it, I could only sigh.

Seeing Lin Yi's embarrassment, Guan Xiaoqi laughed even louder.

"If you have no money, you have no money, so don't pretend to be a rich man,"

Guan Xiaoqi smiled and said, "I'm not lying to you."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "I really didn't lie to you. I was in a hurry to go out today and I didn't bring any money. Don't worry. You know that I live in the city. I have a big family and a big business. I'm sure I'm not short of money. You give me money first." If you leave me, I will give you the money later, is that okay?"

"Of course not,"

Guan Xiaoqi's head was shaking like a rattle, and after casting a blank glance at Lin Yi, he looked at the black donkey in the water to avoid mosquitoes and flies, and said with a smile, "I've seen this donkey before, it seems that you treat it like a donkey." pretty good."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Of course, it is my friend."

Guan Xiaoqi turned her eyes and said, "Then ask your friend to help me carry things into the city, and I'll send you some water chestnuts later, and I won't charge you, what do you think?

And I will not report to the police about stealing my cucumber before, what do you think? "

"You think I'm stupid?"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Even people and animals, no matter who you find, they will be carried into the city for you. There are not five copper coins. You don't even have to think about it. I will take you a few catties of water chestnut, even if you add the one you mentioned Cucumber, how much is it?"

Even though the area around Ankang City is much richer than other places in Daliang Kingdom, not every family has livestock.

Now that he is in charge of the court, naturally he can't implement breeding subsidies like in Sanhe, so he can only find a way to do it step by step.

Whether it is cattle, horses, donkeys, or mules, they are all scarce means of transportation.

If you have a donkey, you are considered a rich man!
