Top-tier broker Chen Nan and her foodie best friend Lin Hua transmigrated!
The two of them failed to escape their arranged marriages at the beginning and were also raided?
Fortunately, ...
Chapter 114 Yuqing Village (Please collect)
As the two were talking, the carriage drove from the shaky country road onto the flat road.
The road suddenly became less bumpy, and Su Chengnan felt a little uncomfortable. She lifted the curtain and looked outside. The road seemed to be even smoother than the official road.
She suppressed her doubts and continued talking to Lu Chaofeng.
"What did you just say?"
"No matter what happens later, don't come down, and the Su family members should not show up."
"Okay, I'll give the instructions now."
Since the Su family is involved, Su Chengnan is naturally on high alert and cannot afford to make any mistakes.
"Kaichi."
"Miss."
"Go tell your mother and the children at home not to go out if anything happens. Just stay in the carriage and follow your instructions."
"yes!"
"Gangzi, you go and keep an eye on Auntie's car. If anyone disobeys, don't be polite."
Her words were almost referring to Aunt Chen by name. She was acting like a demon again a few days ago. If Su Weimin had not become a lonely soul and entered the space, and was particularly nostalgic, so he had interceded for her many times, Su Chengnan would have dealt with her long ago.
"Yes! Miss, I know." Gangzi grabbed the reins and stopped, waiting for the car behind to come forward.
But A came and went in a hurry and came back in the blink of an eye.
Lu Chaofeng looked at him through the carriage window, and Su Chengnan inexplicably smelled gunpowder. Hiss, I’m so annoyed.
She retracted her hand while trying to pick up something, lowered the curtain, and turned to ask Lu Chaofeng, "Is there something wrong ahead?"
He nodded: "Well, the village ahead has the power of Jiangnan behind it, so it's not easy to deal with them."
"That will let us through?"
"If you don't let me, I'll force my way in!"
She felt that after Lu Chaofeng came back this time, he became much more fierce, and it seemed that he was holding back a fire in his heart.
"Is everything going well in the capital?"
"smoothly."
Su Chengnan looked into his eyes carefully and asked again: "Is it really going well? We are partners. If there is anything important, you must not hide it from me."
"Don't worry, it's okay."
"What about food?"
"I have arranged for someone to take you there, don't worry. As long as we pass this village and cross two more mountains, we will reach Beiling. Then, can I take you to Ningguta?"
"good."
Su Chengnan was thinking about food. She had a feeling that the trip to the capital would not be so smooth. Why did Lu Chaofeng refuse to say anything? The more this happened, the more uneasy she felt, and she always felt like a storm was about to come.
Alas, living in this ancient time without one’s own intelligence organization would be like being blind, as information is too isolated. There's nothing she can do if she doesn't like it. She has no ability to change it now. When she has the ability in the future, she will have to do it!
"Prince! We're here."
Qingshan's voice sounded at the door.
Lu Chaofeng stood up and prepared to go out.
"Miss, after we pass this village, Qingshan will come to apologize." Qingshan's voice was very sincere. After he finished speaking, Jiayi snorted coldly.
"You were poisoned at the time, and you didn't do it on purpose. You have committed no crime. Let's just forget about it and don't mention it again."
"Qingshan feels guilty."
Lu Chaofeng lifted the carriage curtain and said casually: "Well, then you stay. If anything happens again, you will come to see me with your head!"
"Yes, Qingshan, I obey your command!"
"Hey, come on, you guys have something important to do."
"Your safety is more important than anything else."
After Lu Chaofeng finished speaking, he left without looking back.
Su Linhua went back into the car and came over to say, "Something seems a little strange outside."
"how?"
Su Chengnan lifted the car curtain and looked out again. This flat road is indeed very wide, and it is obvious that it has been carefully repaired. Such roads are rare in remote areas. Even in a big city like Los Angeles, they are only available in places close to the city.
"Huh? This place..."
Su Chengnan suddenly remembered what Su Weimin had said to her before.
She quickly lifted the curtain and asked, "Jia Yi, is there any water source nearby?"
"Yes, the fork in the road we just passed has shallow water, so there should be a river further in."
"It's not a river," Qingshan suddenly interrupted, "it's the sea!"
"ocean?"
"Yes! This place is by the sea. Once we climb over this hill, we can see the beach over there."
"What's the name of the village?"
"Yu Qing." Qingshan blurted out, but after he finished speaking, he realized that he had spoken too quickly and quickly lowered his head.
Su Linhua frowned, "Have you been there?"
Qingshan looked unhappy. He shook his head and said, "No...I have never been there. No."
The sisters Su Linhua and Su Chengnan naturally would not believe this kind of cover-up statement.
The two looked at each other, and Su Linhua began to ask questions.
"Yuqing, this name sounds nice. It seems that there should be many scholars in the village. So when we pass by, can we go and have a look?"
"Second Miss, stop joking. The prince has already ordered us to move forward at full speed. We might even attack you. You must not get off the car."
"I'm not getting out of the car. I'm just asking out of curiosity."
Qingshan seemed relieved when he heard this.
Su Chengnan then asked: "Since there is a sea here, is there a lot of seafood?"
"Well, maybe." Qingshan cleared his throat and didn't dare to look over.
Su Linhua naturally took over the conversation, "The seafood is delicious! What do you mean by possible? Such a wide road was built here, is it for business? Selling seafood should make a lot of money."
"Well, it should be."
"Oh, ladies, please stop asking me. I don't know anything." Qingshan refused to say another word and rode his horse directly to the front of the carriage.
The two of them lowered the curtain, exchanged glances, and slipped into the space together to start discussing.
"Is this the illegal salt farm?"
"I think so."
"Should we go for a big ticket?"
"Do it! The things are all in front of us, it would be wrong not to do it.
The family is not a good thing either. Look at how hard the lives of the common people are. They even dare to smuggle salt. They must be protecting each other. ”
At this time, Su Weimin floated over from the side and interrupted, "It's not that officials protect each other, but there are many officials in the court who are arranged by these aristocratic families."
"ah?"
"Of course! Not only do they train their children to study from a young age, they also select talented children in the clan. For some remote but important positions, those legitimate children will naturally not suffer, but arrangements still need to be made."
Su Chengnan nodded. The issue of solidifying class has always been passed down from generation to generation in aristocratic families. They regard this matter as a top priority, with interests first.
But, is this the place?
She asked Su Weimin.
Su Weimin shook his head. "I'm not sure. After all, I haven't been here in person. But Lu Chaofeng's mother's family has some power in this generation. He should know about it."
