Chapter 177 I Carry the Flag for Sixth Brother
Xie Wenjie watched from afar as Xie Wuying and the guards came back whispering.
"What's wrong?"
"fine."
It was just a small matter. With Xie Wuying's personality, he didn't take people like Fan Wu seriously at all.
Seeing that he really didn't look worried, Xie Wenjie nodded and said, "Sixth Brother said you should come back and go find him."
"good."
The two came back together. Xie Wenjie was called over by his second sister Xie Zhen to help, so Xie Wuying went directly to find Xie Yuchuan.
After resting, Xie Yuchuan and Zhang Dayi sat opposite each other, chatting while resting.
As Xie Yuchuan's body recovered faster and faster, his former vigor and spirit returned. In addition, the family god Comrade Tu Huan had sent a lot of snowflake salt before, so he asked his second sister, He Zhi, Huai Zhang and others to add it to everyone's meals.
The effect is not noticeable after one or two meals, but the strength can be clearly felt in one or two days. Even Zhang Dayi and his elderly mother have benefited from it.
At first, Zhang Dayi was shocked every time by the "background" hidden under the Xie family's reputation. Later, after being frightened many times, Zhang Dayi became immune to it and finally accepted it psychologically.
The Xie family treated him and his mother so kindly, so as long as Xie Yuchuan needed him, he would do his best to help him.
This is also why Zhang Dayi took a fancy to Pang Jiming and even wanted to help Xie Yuchuan recruit Pang Jiming under his command.
Although he was not sure what Xie Yuchuan's plan was after arriving in Laozhou, based on his observations of Xie Yuchuan these days, this man did not seem to be a depressed person. Instead, his style of doing things became more and more steady. He rarely lost his temper at such a young age, which was really rare for a military general.
The younger Master Wu Ying was exactly the warrior he had imagined. He was straightforward and clear about right and wrong. His hot temper could be seen flaring up from time to time. If it weren't for his kind nature, Zhang Dayi would have been quite afraid of him.
Now that I've gotten used to it after spending so much time together, I actually feel that Xie Wuying has few distractions, is straightforward in his dealings, and is a very pleasant person to get along with.
As soon as Xie Wuying arrived, his voice caught up: "Sixth brother, are you looking for me?"
When Xie Yuchuan saw him coming, he patted the ground and said, "Hezhi, sit down."
Xie Wuying bowed to Zhang Dayi, "Sir."
Zhang Dayi nodded.
Xie Wuying then found an empty seat beside the two of them and sat down. "Huai Zhang said Sixth Brother, you were looking for me?"
"Yes, Sixth Brother has a task for you. Are you willing to take on the hard work?" Xie Yuchuan said with a faint smile.
Xie Wuying smiled, "I thought it was something serious. If Sixth Brother wants Hezhi to do something, just tell him directly. It won't be a big deal."
Xie Yuchuan glanced at Zhang Dayi, who also smiled when he heard it.
Xie Yuchuan pointed to the Min family's caravan in the distance and said to Xie Wuying, "It's not a big deal. Sixth Brother wants you to get to know the people in the Min family's caravan."
Xie Wuying's little brain worked very quickly, his eyes bright, "What did Sixth Brother want me to find out about?"
This sentence made both of them laugh. Zhang Dayi looked at Xie Wuying and said to Xie Yuchuan, "Master Wuying is indeed smart."
"He's still young and lacks experience. I'll have to take good care of him in the future."
Zhang Dayi nodded.
Xie Wuying didn't understand what they were doing. He was worried about what his sixth brother wanted him to find out from the Min family.
"It's all right. Find out as much as you can. Sixth Brother wants to know everything." After Xie Yuchuan and Zhang Dayi talked, they felt that this was the best way to get some information as quickly as possible.
Xie Wuying looked around at the two of them, "Is there a point?"
Xie Yuchuan smiled when he heard this and whispered, "Yes."
"What is it?"
"First and foremost, we need to find out how much goods they lost in Panlong Ridge. It would be even better if we could find out what goods were looted. As for silver, a rough figure will suffice."
"Then what?"
"Secondly, I'd like to know about weather changes in the northern lands beyond the Great Wall after the tenth lunar month, the number of merchant routes available, and what commodities are in greatest demand in the north."
When Xie Wuying heard this, he seemed to vaguely realize that what his sixth brother asked him to do seemed to be of some importance, so he put away his playful smile and looked much more serious.
"Sixth Brother is worried that something might happen after we get out of isolation?"
Zhang Dayi interjected, "No, the Major General hopes to gain a better understanding of areas he's not familiar with."
"I understand. Is there anything else? I'll have a clear idea of what's going on and then try to get close to them." Xie Wuying said.
Xie Yuchuan pondered for a moment and said, "It would be even better if we could understand some of the things that are happening under the surface of the Northland."
"Like the complex relationships between the wealthy families over there?"
"As merchants of the Min family, they may not understand the true relationships between families, but at the county and township levels, they are still able to distinguish which temple to enter and which deity to worship."
Zhang Dayi also agreed that if one is to be exiled, then he should do so. "If there is nothing serious during the exile, and one wants to settle down in the barren land of the north, one can either be a submissive pariah or go with the flow."
Zhang Hanlin's ideas are still the same as those in officialdom.
Xie Yuchuan didn't care about these things in his mind. He wanted to know other aspects.
But Zhang Dayi was wholeheartedly thinking about him, and his kindness was rare, so Xie Yuchuan did not refute him, but just nodded slightly.
Xie Wuying was very happy to be valued by his sixth brother.
Before leaving, he asked quietly, "Can Huaizhang be informed of this matter?"
"We are one family, there is no distinction between you and me." Xie Yuchuan said with a smile.
Xie Wuying went to show off to his good brother with a smile on his face. Xie Yuchuan and Zhang Dayi looked at his back. Zhang Dayi said enviously, "Young people are always full of passion."
Xie Yuchuan looked back and complimented him, "Sir, your integrity remains unchanged despite your age. You are truly a hero."
Wow~
Zhang Dayi felt so comfortable from head to toe because of the praise from Xie Jialiu Lang.
He saw that Xie Yuchuan was a man of both literary and martial talents. If it weren't for the disaster at home and his many years of experience in the northwest, he would be more than just a military talent!
"I've noticed that the general has been lost in thought these past two days. Is there something troubling you?"
Xie Yuchuan shook his head, "It's not a serious matter."
Zhang Dayi understood that Xie Yuchuan didn't want to say it.
He never asked any further questions.
The old mother waved to him from the front, and he stood up and said, "Mother is calling you, I will go for a while."
"Please help yourself, sir."
After everyone dispersed, Xie Yuchuan's surroundings became quiet again, with only him sitting quietly.
He concentrated his mind again and soon opened his eyes in disappointment.
The household god is still not there.
In the distance, while Old Madam Xie was chatting, she looked up and saw her grandson Xie Yuchuan sitting cross-legged over there, gazing at the horizon with a melancholy look on his face, as if he had a lot on his mind.
After pondering for a long time, I wondered if there was some problem between this child and the household god?
Treasure Street, outside Tianxiang Pavilion.
The receptionist stopped Tu Huan and apologized, "Excuse me, ma'am. Guests at today's exhibition need an invitation from the organizer to enter. I'm sorry about this business card..."
Tu Huan was slightly startled. She took the business card back and looked down at it. "Uh, this is the business card that Mr. Qin from Bafang Laicai gave me."
Is this thing useless?
When Qin Lang gave it to her, it seemed as if this business card could reach heaven and earth.
Forget it, if you’re not allowed in, then don’t watch it.
Just as Tu Huan turned around and was about to leave, a voice suddenly came from behind her: "Please wait a moment! Madam, could you please let me see the business card in your hand again?"
Tu Huan held the business card and turned around when she heard the voice.
It is an elegant and handsome middle-aged face.
