Chapter 191 Request for Support
However, just a month ago, the Kyoto Palace Incident had not yet occurred.

It happened that because of the Tribute Festival, he went to Rizhao and did not return for a long time.

A group of extremely cunning vegetable merchants suddenly emerged in Beijing. These vegetable merchants unified prices and sold at fixed points. The dishes they sold were varieties that had never been seen in Beijing. In less than half an hour every day, they would sell vegetables. Can sell out.

Not only that, they also spontaneously established a market dedicated to selling and purchasing vegetables, called the Vegetable Wholesale Market.

Dugu Xiwei consulted many classics, but in the end he could not find what "wholesale" was or any explanation of the word "wholesale".

After sending people to follow up and investigate for half a month, they finally found the man behind the scenes who controlled most of the vegetable merchants in Kyoto and monopolized the Kyoto vegetable market - Xue Hanxiang.

According to reports from spies, Xue Hanxiang was originally the youngest son of the Xue family, the largest family in the south of the Yangtze River. He was young and intelligent and had a business acumen. He had been following his grandmother Xue family since he was a child, learning business skills everywhere.

During the reign of the late Emperor, the Xue family was once named the number one imperial merchant in the world. However, because His Majesty now puts more emphasis on cultivating military and military force instead of commerce and agriculture after he ascended the throne, he abolished the imperial merchant policy, and the Xue family became famous as well. He was hit hard, and then experienced several family divisions. In the end, he was trapped by a villain, committed a felony, and the whole family was made into slaves.

After suppressing his thoughts, Dugu Xi turned slightly sideways and withdrew his gaze.

But I heard the man speak in Wu Nong's soft voice and say distressedly: "Why is the master injured? There is medicine in the car, I will go get it."

If he hadn't said it, he would have almost forgotten the refusal.

Xue Hanxiang quickly returned with the medicine, but did not come closer. Instead, he handed the medicine to Xu Boyan who was standing aside, "Mr. Xu, you have good medical skills. Could you please give me the medicine? Hanxiang is clumsy. If he does it, If you open your mouth, you will make the master suffer."

Xu Boyan squatted down as instructed and brought a basin of water to clean the wound, "How did you do it? No matter how deep it is, you will see the bones."

He declined and said, "I was accidentally scratched by a little fox on the rocky mountain just now."

"Fox? Did you find anything on the stone mountain?" Xu Boyan asked while bandaging her.

"There is a stone room behind the water curtain. There is a stone table and a stone bed inside. It looks like someone has lived in it, but other than that, there is nothing in it." After a pause, "But, It seems we found something else."

Five people crowded into the main room of the third child, which was suddenly full and cramped.

He refused and stood up and walked out, "Third brother, you are busy first. Let's go out and talk."

Xue Hanxiang turned around and saw two men cooking next to the stove, so she volunteered to stay with them.

He refused to hear the words and nodded, "That's just right. You can take down all the food you brought in the car. There are many people tonight and there won't be enough food."

"Yes, don't worry, Master. Mr. Xu has informed us in advance that Hanxiang has been prepared, enough for us to eat until Liangzhou."

Qingzhu jumped up and down with joy, smiling from ear to ear, "That's great!"

The third child was also happy, "Then I won't be polite to you anymore, female hero."

"You're welcome, you're busy." He declined and walked out, suddenly remembering that Dugu Xiwei had been silent all this time, looking back, he was the only one sitting alone in the room filled with laughter and laughter.

Although the straw stool was a bit crude, it did not affect his temperament at all.

He sat upright, but he was listening to them carefully. After feeling the declined gaze, the two looked at each other from afar.

He declined and said to him: "If you are tired, let Qingzhu take you to the car to rest for a while."

Dugu Xi slightly raised his eyes and said hello.

Qingzhu, who got the hint from her eyes, happily pulled Dugu Xiwei out.

Xu Boyan led her to a secluded place.

"Ma Rong just took me to look around the area. It can be said that there is no grass growing in this place. I don't know why."

A thought flashed through her mind very quickly, "Brother, I was just about to tell you this." After refusing to repeat their conjecture, Xu Boyan took the ocher in her hand and brought it to his nose to smell it. , "Yes, this is indeed ocher."

"Senior brother, do you also recognize this thing?"

Xu Boyan smiled self-deprecatingly, "I didn't know that where there is ocher, there must be iron ore. It's just that my ancestors practiced medicine for three generations, and I have seen my fathers using this stuff for medicine."

"I see. I never thought that this little ocher could have so many uses."

……

After refusing to wait for three days in Qingshui Village, Zhou Wenxi finally arrived in the evening.

At that time, Xi Jinping organized the girls from Qingshui Village to dig the ground together at the foot of the stone mountain. As soon as Ma Rong said it, all the girls in the village who had haircuts and some strength came to help with their own hoes.

In just three days, they had dug several large pits ten meters deep in the open space at the foot of the mountain.

"Found it!" Suddenly, someone in the pit screamed.

Decline almost thought that she had heard wrongly. In the past few days, she had looked forward to these "three words" so many times. She hurriedly looked at Xu Boyan, but he also looked back excitedly.

"We really found it!" he said.

Everyone heard the sound and ran to the source of the sound. The second child was scratching his head until he spat out a mouthful of mud-covered saliva, "Is this the thing? It's heavy enough!"

"Throw it up and take a look." Xie Xie looked over and couldn't see clearly, so he could only reach out to pick it up.

A small piece of heavy raw ore fell into her palm.

If you look closely, you will see that there is a layer of sparkling silver-white luster on the surface of the stone.

Dugu Xiwei's voice came from behind, "It's iron ore."

Xie Xie excitedly declared loudly: "Sisters! The emperor has paid off for his hard work. This is what we want. Even if we don't sleep tonight, we still have to dig three feet into the ground to dig out this thing!"

As her voice fell, excited responses continued to ring out from all around.

"it is good!"

"Okay!"

"Great! Our Qingshui Village is finally about to turn around!"

Lao San couldn't help his legs and feet, so he could only wait on the pit. Hearing this, he couldn't help but choked up, "Dig! I have to do my best!" He said, jumping into the pit regardless of the obstruction.

Everyone in Qingshui Village knew that Xie Jue and Xu Boyan had been leading the whole village to find ways to open up wasteland in the past few days. In the past, the fields where no grass could grow, now, thanks to their efforts, green shoots have begun to sprout.

The good days that I declined to talk about seem to be really coming soon.

At this moment, the sound of galloping horse hooves came from far and near.

Xue Hanxiang came from a distance to report the news, panting: "Master, Miss Zhou is here! It's just..."

"Just what?" Looking at his expression, he seemed to have something to say, so he declined and suppressed his smile and asked.

Xue Hanxiang said: "Shopkeeper Shen is here too."
