Sixteen pigs, if business was as booming as before, would be enough to consume their shop for several days.

The situation is not very clear now.

"Let's kill a pig first and sell it. If the business is good, we can add more in turn."

Jiang Li explained to Zhang Sheng.

The brother and sister had not eaten since their meal in the morning, and it was already past noon.

Zhang Sheng went to arrange for people to kill pigs and make braised pork.

Jiang Li found Zhang Chan and asked her to help him make a bowl of noodles.

After leaving the pig farm, I happened to bump into Duan Yuanzhou.

Long time no see, it feels like a lifetime ago.

The three of them were stunned for a moment, Jiang Songshu, Jiang Li, and Duan Yuanzhou.

But soon Jiang Songshu reacted and stepped forward to hug Duan Yuanzhou, "How come you haven't heard any news at all these days?"

Duan Yuanzhou glanced at him angrily, "You still have the nerve to say that you didn't know to look for me even if you didn't see me."

Duan Yuanzhou kicked Jiang Songshu, "Honestly, have you forgotten me?"

The two of them walked towards the Jiang family's house, laughing and joking.

Jiang Li walked slowly behind him, and when they arrived at home, the two of them were sitting at the dining table, waiting to eat and chatting.

Jiang Songshu talked to Duan Yuanzhou about what happened these days.

Duan Yuanzhou was amazed when he heard that a group of them had actually gone to the thieves' den. They were lucky to be able to come out.

Jiang Li listened to Jiang Songshu's slightly exaggerated and boastful expressions, only looking at her from time to time.

Jiang Songshu felt guilty. What happened to bragging? Bragging is a man’s nature!

Duan Yuanzhou echoed: "The level of thrills you faced is comparable to when I encountered bandits!"

Fortunately, Aunt Zhang quickly cooked the noodles and served them, interrupting the two men's bragging.

While eating noodles, Duan Yuanzhou remembered what he had heard and asked mysteriously: "A group of people were arrested in the city earlier. Do you all know about this?"

Jiang Songshu and Jiang Li looked at each other and nodded towards Duan Yuanzhou.

"I went out of the city today. When I came here, I heard that the team escorting the rebels from the imperial court encountered someone hijacking their car on the way."

Jiang Li leaned over and asked casually, "Where was the car robbed? Are everything okay?"

Duan Yuanzhou didn't notice at all, "It is said that more than a dozen people died."

Jiang Songshu listened on the side and said after hearing the words: "We also went to the city today and saw the government officials escorting away the group of rebels. The leader was Song Yunting from the Song Mansion. Do you remember him?"

Duan Yuanzhou suddenly realized, "It's him! Didn't he follow the path of a civil servant? How did he get involved in this matter?"

Jiang Li got some news from Song Yulin and Song Yuxing.

After thinking about it, I realized that this was not a secret, so I told Duan Yuanzhou and Jiang Songshu about it.

"Song Yunting grew up with cousins ​​from his mother's family. His maternal grandfather was the famous General Zhenyuan in our dynasty. Growing up in this environment, he was naturally more martial and determined to become a military attaché. His father was unwilling, and the father and son were in a stalemate. In the end, his mother intervened, and Song Shoufu put forward a condition, that is, if Song Yunting can pass the scholar examination before he is seventeen years old, he will agree to the matter. "

Jiang Lei glanced at the two people who were listening with great interest.

Jiang Songshu asked, "What's the result?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "How do you think he is now?"

Thinking of him riding a horse on the street, looking down from a high position, he was completely different from the Song Yunting they had seen. It was obviously the same face, but they were a little unrecognizable at the time.

Duan Yuanzhou listened and asked tentatively: "Did you really pass the exam before you were seventeen?"

Jiang Li nodded, "He passed the exam. He came to Yunzhou City only because his ancestral home is here. Song Chief Fu asked him to come back to pay homage to his ancestors before joining the army."

Duan Yuanzhou rubbed the back of his head and said to Jiang Songshu with a sneer, "They are all the sons of the chief minister, yet they are still so pursuing!"

"It is said that Song's chief minister has a son. He has the support of his father and he is very smart. Why worry about choosing a more difficult path when he has no place in the court?"

Duan Yuanzhou said with a sigh.

Everyone has his own father's full support, but he is still so desperate. His status is embarrassing and he is in a difficult situation. There is really no reason not to fight for a way out for himself.

Duan Yuanzhou thought about it and couldn't wait to go home and study hard.

Jiang Songshu listened, but raised the question: "From what we saw today, since Song Yunting can be responsible for such an important matter, he must be an official in the army, right?"

Jiang Li thought about it for a moment. As soon as he entered the military camp, he could get work and ride such a good horse. He was certainly not an ordinary soldier.

"probably."

After listening, Jiang Songshu showed a longing expression on his face.

There is no man who does not yearn to be a general and be invincible.

As he was talking, there was a ticking sound outside. The sky was originally clear, but suddenly it was covered by dark clouds.

The three of them realized that at some point, the light in the room had become much darker.

Duan Yuanzhou stood up and said, "I have to go back first."

When the boy outside saw it, he immediately took off his umbrella from the carriage and took Duan Yuanzhou there.

Duan Yuanzhou, who got on the carriage, waved to Jiang Li and Jiang Songshu.

Watching the carriage go away, Jiang Songshu remembered and said, "I just forgot to ask him how the Duan family's business is?"

Their wealthy families are always better informed than their own when it comes to business, so it is definitely a good idea to follow them.

Jiang Li smiled. Her brother was quite smart now. She didn't expect this. Sure enough, running out more would broaden his horizons.

“Sometimes a little information gap can make people make a lot of money, but it can also make people lose everything.”

Maybe this dynasty, which was full of cars and horses, was relatively better, but this is indeed the case in modern times, especially for investors.

"It started raining suddenly. I wonder if everyone outside has harvested their food in time?"

Looking at the raindrops left along the eaves, they continued to hit the ground, and the ground was soon dizzy.

I heard Qian Laishun and his wife said that the Jiang family's grain, Gracilaria, would be all dried out in one day. This grain can be put into the barn as soon as it is dried, unlike other families.

Since the Jiang family came here escaping from disaster, the government had previously promised that those who came here would not be charged taxes for growing grain in the first three years.

So as soon as you finish drying it, you can start paying them to settle the share.

As promised before, they would get 28% of the food they planted. Although the harvest exceeded their imagination, they still had to do what they promised.

A sudden heavy rain shattered the joy of Qian Laishun and the five people.

At first, there was a drought, but we couldn't get rain. We saw so many people dying of thirst and starvation. Now it's better. We finally had to share the food. On the last day, it suddenly started raining heavily.

After Qian Laishun and the five men gathered the grain, their clothes and hair were somewhat wet.
