The rain is still falling. If the team members relaxed last night and were happy to rest, then today they are a little worried.

The ancients liked rainy days, but umbrellas were troublesome and the roads were muddy. More rainy days made it easier to get sick.

Rumble…

The rain was accompanied by thunder, and the sound of the thunder made people's ears hurt. Fortunately, the place where they camped was relatively reliable. The ground was flat, while the camp site was slightly sloping, allowing water to accumulate.

Qin Fang came to Niu Da and asked, "Look, how long will it rain?" He frowned, even if he looked at the rain and the weather, he still didn't know how to do it, from childhood to adulthood. I also like rainy days. Every time it rains, the elders will chant it. They and their children will understand it after hearing it many times. Moreover, when he was a child, he was also playful. When there were adults in the house on rainy days, he would restrain him and let him go out to play, so he liked rainy days.

Niu Da looked at the rain and weather. The sky was covered with clouds and thunderstorms, and his face looked like an old man's face. He thought for a while and gave a rough number: "There are about five days left."

Qin Fang's heart sank after hearing this.

Niu Da added: "Maybe it goes all the way down, then stops for a moment and a half, and then goes down again."

Qin Fang nodded and said he understood. Then, he looked for Kunshi, but he couldn't find it. He saw Tao Shan and asked, "Where is Kunshi?"

"Sir, Captain Kun took some people to the county town to buy ginger brown sugar. My wife said that depending on the situation, the ones I bought yesterday will definitely be enough. I will give you a bowl of 놅 for one day." Tao Shan said, "Captain Kun said that depending on the situation on the rainy day, the ginger brown sugar in the county may not meet our needs. He will go to neighboring counties to purchase it."

Qin Fang hummed and asked another question. He turned to Captain Yang.

Lieutenant Yang was helping the doctor in the room. He was always in the camp on rainy days, and the busiest time was with the doctor.

Qin Fang looked at the busy doctors inside and the people waiting for medicine, and a feeling of peace flashed in his heart. He said to Lieutenant Yang: "Niu Da said that the rain is expected to last for another five days. If it lasts for another five days, the medicinal materials in the county may not be able to meet our needs. Old Yang, take people there." Purchase medicinal materials. Wait...how much military salary is there now?" Before they set off, the court allocated a sum of money. When a sum of money is used to purchase food and medicinal materials, it must be advanced first. Of course, when everyone receives food and medicine, they also pay on the spot.

놙놆, the imperial court allocated a lot of money, and kept large quantities of grain and medicinal materials, but the money was not collected so quickly.

Colonel Yang is in charge of the money, and he is cautious about money. Today, when Kunshi went to buy ginger, brown sugar, they already received a sum. At present, they have enough money on hand to stock up on food and medicinal materials.

Captain Yang: "There are still about two hundred taels." The court gave only one 껜 tael in total. ‌ One 껜 and two 놅 taels of silver for the food expenses of the soldiers, 녦놊 including the barbarians and others, and ‌놆 when they purchased food and medicinal materials in advance, 녦놆 was included in it.

Now that I have enough money, what should I do?

Captain Yang and Qin Fang were silent and asked again: "Sir, what should I do if I have enough money?"

Qin Fang was silent for a while: "If you have enough money, you need to raise money. Find a way to raise it." How to raise it? Do you expect others to give you free money? dream. Qin Fang thought for a while and went to find Yang Haiyan.

Yang Haiyan was embroidering a handkerchief in the camp. She had nothing to do with her, so she had time to embroider a handkerchief.

As soon as Qin Fang came in, the curtain lifted a corner and a cold wind came in.

Yang Haiyan sighed and hurriedly asked Aunt Lian to bring a bowl of warm brown sugar water: "Drink it quickly to warm your body and replenish your strength."

Qin Fang took it and drank it. He finished it in one breath and gave the bowl to Aunt Lian. He said, "Yanyan, I have to go to the county town. I'll come back around the afternoon."

Yang Haiyan was stunned. Qin Fang should leave the brigade if it is not necessary. After all, if something happens to the brigade, and he is the person in charge, the problem will be troublesome. So when Qin Fang said he was leaving the brigade and going to the county town, Yang Haiyan was astonished. "What are you going to do in the county town?"

Qin Fang also concealed: "This time to resettle the barbarians, the imperial court gave one 껜tael of silver to use as military pay for the soldiers, but there were still two hundred taels of silver left. The soldiers drank ginger brown sugar water every day. The daily food expenses will be deducted from the military pay. If we go on, the military pay may not be enough. According to Niu Da, we still need to stop there for five days, so I went to the county to look for ways to make money. ”

When Yang Haiyan heard this, she said interestingly: "Don't you want the soldiers to go to the county town to work as coolies to earn money?"

Qin Fang felt that his wife thought too highly of him. Although it was easy to earn money by working as a coolie, could earning a few pennies solve the current situation?

Yang Haiyan felt that Qin Fang was convinced, and she found it interesting to see him glaring at her. He curled his lips and said, "‌‌How do you want to make money?"

Qin Fang said, "I'm still sure. I have some thoughts in my mind. We'll talk about it after we go to the county town. Yanyan, I'll leave this place to you for now. If you have anything to do, go to Captain Yang or Captain Lu." Lieutenant, come on as soon as you go."

Yang Haiyan didn't get to the bottom of it. Everything was a bit mysterious and surprising. Besides, she was really curious about how Qin Fang wanted to make money. "Okay, don't worry, there's something in there."

"Um."

Qin Fang took ten soldiers to the county. ‌Compared with the barren mountains and wild ridges, the county is as quiet as ever. Speaking of which, there is no lively campground in the county at this moment. After all, everyone gathered together where the brigade camped, while people in the county town were scattered.

The rain was heavy, and even though Qin Fang and others were wearing raincoats, they still got a little wet.

On a normal day, the county gate would be very lively with people coming and going. 녦놆 Today, the county gate is desolate.

Almost everyone entering and leaving the county can see it.

When Qin Fang and others arrived at the city gate, they were stopped by the city gate guard: "Who is that?" After all, they were all riding horses, and they looked like they were extraordinary people.

Qin Fang took out his customs clearance document. He went from the border pass to Yunxiang County, so he naturally had the customs clearance document.

The guard read the customs clearance document and let him go.

Qin Fang led people into the county and assigned tasks to five soldiers. He took the other five soldiers to the inn. He chose a relatively ordinary inn in 놅놆. It looked like an ordinary 놅 restaurant, luxurious and clean.

Is it possible that there are still guests coming on a heavy rainy day? The waiter worked hard to entertain them: "How many guests are welcome? May I ask where you can stay and where you can eat?"

Qin Fang said: "Eat, each person has a bowl of shredded pork noodles, hurry up, we are in a hurry."

Waiter: "Okay, guest, please wait a moment, we are busy with things." The waiter said, and shouted to the front, "Six bowls of shredded pork noodles."

Qin Fang continued: "A few more side dishes. By the way, waiter, we met the robbers on the way here. I thought we were robbed. Where is the county government here?" , we will report to the official soon."

The waiter was startled when he heard what he said. He looked around and said, "Shh..." Fortunately, there was no one in the inn. What if something happened?

Qin Fang made a gesture, and he was suspicious: "What are you doing?"

The waiter lowered his voice and said: "Gentlemen, it is forbidden to talk about robbers in our county. Once robbers are mentioned, be careful to survive tonight."

Anything else? Qin Fang and several soldiers looked at each other, and everyone knew that the matter was too funny.

One of the soldiers said: "What can I say? In the county town, are the robbers still so powerful? How can they enter the city and kill people? Besides, all the noble people in the capital are being raped. Discuss, how come the robbers can do it?”

Another soldier said: "That's right, why are you talking about robbers? I even said today that I want to kill them."

The waiter sighed and said helplessly: "Guys, I can't do anything about it. In the past, there were people in our county talking about robbers. Later, if someone wanted to discuss robbers, they would be killed in serious cases and killed in minor cases. Even if you break your arms and legs, no one will dare to discuss the robbers openly. "

Qin Fang asked: "Does our county government manage it?"

The waiter said: "The county government started to take care of it, but what was found in the investigation? How can we take care of it?"

Qin Fang: "The county government didn't look for the robbers?"

The waiter smiled and said, "What's the point of looking for it? No one can prove that the robbers did it. There is no evidence, and the county government can't do anything about it. The county magistrate said that even though he is an official, he can't do it." When an official works with evidence, there is nothing he can do against the robbers without evidence. Moreover, there are nearly a hundred robbers, and there are dozens of people in our county government, and there are more than 100 robbers. Ah. 놙놆…

놊Hiding the customer, we all know that the robbers are very bad and kill people in the blink of an eye. What can we do? So the people watched and waited. Fortunately, the robbers did not come to the county to cause trouble. "

‌뇽Good?

Qin Fang: "Does the county magistrate ask the court for help?"

The waiter looked at Qin Fang several times, and probably felt that Qin Fang's words were a little funny: "Master, this matter is something that we, the ordinary people, can't take care of."

Qin Fang thought about it and said, "Do you know where the robbers are? We were robbed, so let's forget it."

The waiter said: "I advise you to forget it. Look at how many of us can compare with others? The robbers are easy to mess with."

The soldier let out a sigh: "Just say it, where does all this nonsense come from?"

The waiter was startled, and felt that they were so popular. Since they were going to die, and they were criticized for stopping him, he stopped them. The waiter said angrily: "Qingyuguan is at Wulipo outside the city." Wulipo is five miles away from the county seat.

When Qin Fang ate the noodles, five soldiers who were separated from him also came. Qin Fang also ordered five bowls of noodles for them, and asked some questions by the way. After they finished eating, Qin Fang left with his men.
