If the business woman does not help the poor, the villain's dream of prosperity will be shatter

The people waiting in the cave originally thought that the governor on the mountain would stay in the courtyard.

As a result, at the end of the hour, the kid who had been staring at the yard came running over and shouted in a low voice, "Go, go, go, go out, all go out."

Li Yi asked quickly: "Are they all gone?"

The boy laughed and said, "They all left. I saw with my own eyes that woman and her people left. I even peeked through the crack of the door and saw that there was no one left in the yard."

Li Yi ordered again: "Go and follow them from a distance. When you see that they are really far away, come back and report."

He turned around and asked the yamen runner he brought with him, "Has the person who came to pick up the goods arrived?"

The bailiff quickly replied, "We arrived early this morning. We heard some noise on the mountain and have been waiting at the entrance of the valley."

Li Yi turned around twice, waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and drive the car into the canyon, and get out of the valley before dark."

As long as the carriage is in the hands of the consignee, it has nothing to do with them.

He could also go back to the government office to report.

At the command, all the people and carriages immediately took action.

Half an hour later, all the carriages entered the valley.

Li Yi had the traces of the cave entrance cleaned up and told the salt well manager, "The master said that we should not produce salt for the next few days. When to produce salt, wait for the master's news."

After arranging the personnel on duty, Li Yi led the yamen runners and quietly left the mountain along the canyon.

As he turned out of the canyon, he seemed to hear a faint sound of thunder.

Is it going to rain?

Li Yi looked up at the sky: it was a clear sky without even a trace of clouds, so where did the thunder come from?

The doubt flashed through his mind and Li Yi quickly put the matter behind him.

Ride back to Yancheng.

In the Longshan Mountains.

Qin Shu held the homemade fire bomb and said to Fu Ying with a smile: "This fire bomb is quite powerful. If you add some thorns or iron sheets to the fire bomb, you can increase the destructive value based on the original power."

Fu Ying smiled and said, "What you are talking about is called a caltrop cannon. That kind is mainly used for long-range attacks, and this kind of fire bomb can be buried underground to ambush the enemy."

Qin Shu suddenly realized and gave Fu Rong a thumbs up, "Great!"

She handed the fire bomb in her hand to Zhu Zhi and said with a smile: "Throw a few more bombs into the ditch to test their power. Hit the rocks a few more times to see how many rocks you can break."

Zhu Zhi bowed in response and directed his men to carry the bamboo baskets filled with fire bombs to the side of the canyon and throw them into the canyon one by one.

In a short while, the whole basket of fire bombs was thrown away.

The rocks that were blown down and collapsed in the canyon formed a large pile in the canyon.

Not to mention a carriage, even for a person, it would be difficult to get across.

There was such a huge pile of rocks, some as big as a carriage. It would probably take at least ten days or half a month to clear them out.

Qin Shu nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad, really good. Next time you have a new weapon, we will come here to test it out."

Fu Ying laughed loudly, "Okay, whatever you say. Let's go back. I think someone will come looking for us soon."

The group packed up their bags and rode back to the yard.

Just as they arrived at the yard and hadn't unloaded the prey yet, they saw a man in his forties, dressed in official uniform, supported by two yamen runners on each side, walking towards Qin Shu and the others, panting.

The man walked up to Qin Shu, not even bothering to wipe the sweat off his forehead, and bowed to Qin Shu and said, "Your subordinate, I am Liu Meng, the governor of Longzhou, here to see Qin Jiezhen."

Qin Shu looked at Liu Meng with a smile and asked in confusion, "Master Liu? The governor of Longzhou? It seems that it is not the time for this town to stay in Longzhou temporarily. Why is Master Liu here?"

Liu Yan's fat face was smiling like Maitreya Buddha, "I think the governor forgot that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I heard that the governor was hunting in Longshan and has arrived at my doorstep. How can I not invite the governor to come in and have a drink?"

Qin Shu smiled and nodded, "Master Liu is thoughtful."

She frowned slightly and said, "But we just arrived at this town today. The mountains here are deep and the forests are dense, and there are a lot of pheasants and rabbits. We haven't had enough fun in this town yet, so we want to hunt more game. When the time comes, can we send some to Lord Liu to try?"

Liu Chen smiled in a very official manner, "Well, I would like to thank Qin Jiezhen. Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is the first time for Jiezhen to come to Linbei Road. I have prepared a small banquet, and I hope you will honor me anyway."

Qin Shu tilted her head and thought for a moment, then asked Fu Rong, "A Rong, do you want to go?"

Fu Ying gently stroked Qin Shu's hair and replied softly, "The mountain is very humid and cold at night. If you want to come again in the future, I will accompany you."

Qin Shu smiled and hugged Fu Rong's arm, saying coquettishly: "Okay, you said it, don't cheat."

Fu Rong hummed.

Qin Shu said to Liu Meng, "Then, I will follow Master Liu down the mountain and return home."

Liu Meng breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, stepped aside, and said, "Jie Zhen, please go first."

Fu Ying walked in front holding Qin Shu's hand, and Liu Meng followed closely behind holding the hand of the young yamen runner.

Liu Meng, who was following behind, glanced at the two people in front who were snuggling together, talking and laughing: Isn't it said that Qin is the emperor's favorite?

How did you get involved with such a pretty boy?

Could it be that this man is the lover that Qin secretly keeps?

I didn’t expect that Qin actually likes this!

Qin Shu followed Liu Meng down the mountain and took a carriage into the Longzhou Governor's Mansion.

The banquet had already been set up in the mansion. Maids in pink short jackets and long skirts were like colorful butterflies, carrying trays in their hands and moving around the banquet tables, placing exquisite dishes on the tables.

The maid from the governor's mansion brought hot water, and Qingsang helped Qin Shu wash up, change her clothes and comb her hair.

After everything was packed up, he went to the banquet room with Fu Ying.

The banquet room was already full of people.

Qin Shu was given the first seat.

Fu Ying sat on Qin Shu's right hand side, and Liu Meng sat on Qin Shu's left hand side.

Liu Meng first raised his glass to express his welcome to Qin Shu's arrival and his expectation that Linbei Road would become better and better under Qin Shu's leadership in the future.

After Qin Shu said a few polite words, the banquet began.

After three rounds of drinks, Liu Meng clapped his hands gently.

Music started playing at the banquet, and two rows of young and strong men, shirtless and wearing colorful long skirts around their waists, began to dance.

This kind of dance is similar to the Nuo dance.

The man holds a small waist drum in his hand and has a colorful ribbon tied on his head. He dances and beats the small drum in his hand.

Each man was about seventeen or eighteen years old, all with handsome looks, broad shoulders and narrow waists.

Qin Shu held a mouthful of wine in her mouth and almost spit it out of her nose.

She tried hard to swallow the wine and subconsciously looked at Fu Rong.

Fu Rong was holding his chin, watching with great interest.

Noticing Qin Shu's gaze, he glanced at her with a half-smile.

The hairs on Qin Shu's back stood up.
