Chapter 111 Wang Qi's Request

In the afternoon, Song Liyun packed a basket of vegetables and prepared to send it to the garrison.

Now the area of ​​the greenhouse has been expanded, and under the careful care of Song Zhenping and Han Ming, the seedlings are growing well.

From the original plan of delivering food once every five days, it has become once every two days, with an income of 500 coins each time.

In this way, the Song family would earn at least seven taels of silver a month, enough to live a good life.

However, the garrison cannot pay cash every time, and must accumulate a certain amount before calculating the payment.

Song Liyun accepted it with pleasure, as she had plenty of food and oil, as well as several dozen taels of silver.

Anyway, the garrison is not unwilling to pay, so it doesn’t matter whether it’s earlier or later.

It has been a few days since returning from Qili County. Everything is calm and Song Liyun's anxiety has eased a lot.

During a road robbery, Min Gande and another henchman were thrown into a deep ditch by Han Ming, but three of them escaped alive. On the road, she was still worried that the group would rush into Suijin Town to seek revenge.

When she returned to Suijin Town and returned to her usual peaceful life, her worries disappeared.

When buying grain in Qili County, those people said they were not afraid because there were garrisons and troops in Suijin Town.

Now I am in Suijin Town, and the garrison is two miles away from my home. There are hundreds of well-trained soldiers inside.

My family is a military household, and as long as I don't leave the town, those people would have to be very brave to dare to break in.

When she thought of this, Song Liyun suddenly felt like a fox borrowing the power of a tiger to bully others.

In Baolinju, where everyone is well fed and warm and everyone is in harmony, even Han Ming, who was worried on the road, now acts as if nothing has happened and is happy to be tossed around by Heijin every day.

Song Liyun was only a little worried.

Even though the Chinese New Year is approaching, Song Liyun is worried that those people will come to Suijin Town under the pretext of visiting relatives and friends, causing trouble for her.

She felt that she needed to talk to the captain of the garrison and reveal some of her concerns in this regard.

Even though there was no external threat, there was another thing that weighed very heavily on her mind, which made her even more uneasy than the possibility that bandits were hiding in Qili County.

That's the thing about wool rugs.

The wool carpet was sold for 150 taels of silver. After spending some money in Qili County to buy grain and cloth, Song Liyun still had 70 taels in her pocket, which was enough to last her for another year or two.

If it were kept in an ordinary farmer's household, it might take ten or eight years.

This is such a good deal!

In comparison, the money earned from growing vegetables and farming is just a drop in the bucket.

Song Liyun thought: Captain Luo was able to use such luxury goods to pay off his debts at a low price. Maybe he had some channels to get the items from the Di tribe, but as they were in the military, it was not convenient for them to sell them.

If that's the case, I'd like to help!

Even if it is not convenient for him to go to Qili County now, as long as he keeps it at home, he can go to Qili County to resell it in two or three years. Those of Min Gande's followers will surely have dispersed long ago.

Or he could wait until the snow melted, then go alone without even Han Ming, disguise himself and travel light.

Song Liyun's mind was full of thoughts.

When I think of making money, I think of sizzling grilled lamb chops and all kinds of candies and snacks.

At this time, even the bandits in Qili County were not so scary.

She actively went to the garrison to deliver food today, just to find an opportunity to talk to Captain Luo about this matter.

In addition to the two baskets of vegetables sent to the garrison, there were also two cans of meat sauce bought from Qili County, two boxes of preserved fruits, a bundle of dried sausages, and sesame crackers.

When she was buying things, she thought that since Captain Luo was generous, she couldn't be stingy either.

Even though the wool carpet was forced upon me as payment for my debt, it was still an extra hundred taels of silver, so I should buy myself some small gifts. I just wonder if that bearded uncle likes snacks?

As soon as Song Liyun's cart reached the barracks gate, the sentry on duty ran over to move the barricades. As he did so, he greeted Song Liyun: "Miss Song, are you back from Qili County?"

Song Liyun thought the voice was familiar and looked closely at the man wearing a snow-covered fur hat that covered his face so tightly that he couldn't see his face. "How did you know I was going to Qili County?"

Seeing that Song Liyun was having difficulty reading, the man took off his hat and showed Wang Qi's signature smile: "Brother Zhenping said so."

On the day Song Liyun and the others went to Qili County, Song Zhenping came to the garrison to deliver food, looking absent-minded.

Seeing this, Wang Qi asked what was going on.

Song Zhenping said that his sister had gone to Qili County and would not come back at night, and he was very worried.

Wang Qi did not laugh at him. Knowing that Song Liyun was safe with Han Ming by her side, he comforted her and said that Han Ming was good at martial arts and there was no danger.

Zhou Xiaoqi also specifically assured him that the guards were there and he could come to them for anything.

Song Liyun pulled the cart into the camp, and Wang Qi also took over his shift and came over to help pull the cart.

There were only two baskets of vegetables in the cart, making it almost empty. However, Wang Qi still grabbed the handlebars and walked towards the kitchen while talking to Song Liyun: "Miss Song, if there is anything going on at home these days, please tell me. I have a day off tomorrow, so I can take a leave to leave the camp."

Song Liyun tilted her head to look at him. Why is this kid so attentive today?

Wang Qi is about eighteen or nineteen years old. His skin is tanned by the sun and has healthy bronze skin. Laugh lines appear at the corners of his eyes when he smiles. He is a very sunny and cheerful young man.

Seeing Song Liyun looking at him, Wang Qi scratched his head embarrassedly: "I, I'll tell you the truth!"

Song Liyun's heart skipped a beat and she immediately narrowed her eyes.

In my previous life, I was struggling to survive in the apocalypse, and survival was my top priority.

Reproducing offspring is not the responsibility of ordinary survivors, and when opposite sexes get together, they are mostly just physically together, not emotionally. Song Liyun has long since forgotten the word "marriage".

Although I have a good impression of this young man now, that is the feeling of an older sister looking at a younger brother, just like how I look at Song Zhenping and Xiao An. I must not say anything that will affect our friendship.

"I still want to eat that stinky meat you made, ah! It's pig intestines. Not only do I want to eat it, but a few of my brothers also want to eat it. It's just that they are embarrassed to ask, so let me ask, can we go to your house to eat it again?"

That's it? For eating pig intestines?

It turned out that she was just overthinking it, and Song Liyun burst out laughing.

Wang Qi saw Song Liyun looking at him and laughing non-stop, and felt even more embarrassed. He hurriedly said, "We're not eating for free either. You can pay us or work for us."

Song Liyun doubled over with laughter, and only spoke after Wang Qi's face flushed red: "Okay, anything is fine, let's get to work! How many of you guys want to come? I still need to go to town to see who has pig intestines!"

"No need to ask, we will bring our own rotten meat. Let me think about how many people there are." Wang Qi was overjoyed when he heard Song Liyun agree, and hurriedly counted the number of people on his fingers.

Under Song Liyun's murderous gaze, Wang Qi's fingers finally decreased from fifteen to ten. He really couldn't reduce them any further.

"Miss Song, Sister Song, please help me! If those guys knew we went there without them, they would definitely kill me when we come back."

Song Liyun felt a little resentful. Her family didn't run a restaurant, so why did everyone have to come and eat?

Seeing that Song Liyun agreed, Wang Qi was relieved. The last time he brought back leftovers, he was punished by Lin Xiaoqi, who said that he did not do a good job of keeping secrets.

Captain Luo punished them again, saying that they did not report to the highest commander and left the camp without permission.

In the end, he was punished by his classmates: they said he did not have a strong sense of teamwork.

No matter what happens, comrades should advance and retreat together, never abandon or give up, even if it means eating shit, they should stay together.
