Finally, when Su Wan finished speaking, Song Tusu took a deep breath, and said softly: "Others don't know her identity, and they may think too much when they see you running into her tent every day. You are now... but the woman of General Song... ..."

Suddenly realizing what Song Tusu said, Su Wan's face turned red, and she didn't know how to speak. She was indeed negligent, because being with this person was the most relaxing time for her every day, and she didn't have to worry much, as if no matter what happened This person can stand in the front.

At this moment, this feeling suddenly swayed back and forth in her heart, Su Wan had the illusion that she was faintly fallen, she covered her face, not daring to look at Song Tusu.

Feeling that he had almost reminded himself, Song Tusu said relaxedly: "Ah-Wu should never speak, she has no tongue. As you said, she is too tall to be used as a man, but also a slave. In some tribes in the grassland, there are existences that are not even as good as livestock. But she can understand the Central Plains dialect, which is a bit strange."

"I will pay attention." Su Wan nodded.

Slowly, she finally felt that her face was not so red. Su Wan patted her chest secretly, laughing at herself. Now that her body has not yet started to develop, she looks like a bamboo pole. , Is it the memory of the previous life that caused the trouble?

"Rest early, and we'll leave tomorrow." Song Tusu couldn't help but patted Su Wan's shoulder again, she was so skinny, she could touch the bones with one pat, and she was obedient.

Twirling her body a little annoyed, Su Wan suddenly asked, "Just leave like this, are you okay?"

"The left and right lieutenants are good at managing the barracks, don't worry. As long as my life and death are not unknown like last time, they dare not do anything." Song Tusu suddenly stopped talking, stretched out his hand and flicked, a small stone flew out, just right Take down the tent curtain.

The curtains blocked the only light source outside, and it was pitch black inside the tent.

Fumbling to lie down, Su Wan didn't continue to ask, and Song Tusu didn't continue to speak.

The next day, Su Wan opened her eyes at dawn. To be honest, when she thought of going out, and not to the grassland, but in the opposite direction, Su Wan became a little excited and woke up very early in the morning.

But the people around him had already woken up, and when they touched it, the place was cold.

Get up quickly to clean up, the hemp weeds stepped on in the mountains has never had a chance to be used, and Su Wan rolled them up with animal skins and put them in the bag, long knives, and nothing else.

"Aww..." Ah Chou followed and listened to the conversation of the two of them all night last night. He seemed to know that Su Wan was leaving today, so he followed her feet reluctantly, rubbing back and forth.

Touching A Chou's head, Su Wan said in a low voice: "I can't take you this time. When you grow up, or I have the ability, I will definitely take you! A Chou, be good, don't make trouble today."

"Ugh..."

The people who came out this time include personal soldiers and private soldiers. I didn’t see any of the five people I saw last time. Except for Su Wan, who was in the kitchen, I met the others, but I didn’t talk to them. .

"This time the general came out in person, we must not disappoint the general." Wang Zeng also came out this time, taking time to talk to other soldiers.

Looking over curiously, Su Wan didn't understand what Wang Zeng would say.

Leaving the barracks, passing through the inner city, and continuing to move forward quickly, taking a break at noon to bury the pot for cooking, Su Wan took the opportunity to ask Wang Zeng, "Why did you say that..."

Looking left and right, no one thought this way, especially Song Tusu, then Wang Zeng said in a low voice: "Only our general buys the food for the private soldiers, and the left and right lieutenants are all provided by the family members. But Let’s buy it every month, and the nearby cities are almost out of food.”

"No way... there are only 500 people... I see." Su Wan changed her words suddenly.

The soldiers in the barracks are drawn according to the household registration registered in the Yamen, but most of the food and grass are collected nearby, and they are rarely transferred from other places. Once the food and grass are transported, soldiers are needed, and the process is far away. After the hunting, the grain and grass will be delivered. If the scheduling is normal, the grain and grass can be delivered normally. After passing through layers of handovers, local officials, officials and other officials, most of the grain and grass in hand may be stones in the end.

In order to avoid these situations from happening, most of the time it is collected nearby.

Although some situations can be avoided in this way, it has led to the collection of grain and grass in the nearest place year after year, and basically every household has no surplus grain.The policy given by the imperial court is not to withdraw soldiers, but for Song Tusu who needs to purchase food and grass, every purchase is somewhat difficult.

If you go to a farther place, the time to go back and forth is not enough.

No wonder Wang Zeng would say that.

"I hope my luck will be better this time." Su Wan said to herself, she couldn't think of a way by herself, it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice.

Chapter 21

This is the first time for Su Wan to leave the border town and go to a city further inside. How should I put it, I don't know what to say.

I met a few villages in the middle, with low-rise houses, and fields that looked very barren, and occasionally saw farmers wearing linen clothes. Most of them were as thin as Su Wan, with black and thin branches His body seemed dry and dry, and there was only fear in his eyes looking at them.

It is more intuitive to see the productivity of these farmers. After excluding rations and grain collection, the rest will be sold to merchants in the city, and the soldiers sent by Song Tusu will buy from the merchants.
