Chapter 187 Take you to drink porridge



In the afternoon, Su Yin walked to Li Erniu's side and chatted with him on the way.

"Erniu, I heard from Nanliu that you have made great progress in the past few days."

Li Erniu smiled innocently, opened his eyes wide, and asked in surprise, "Really?"

"Of course it's true."

"Hehe, I didn't expect Master Nan Liu to praise me. This morning he scolded me for being clumsy."

Su Yin smiled and said, "Nan Liu won't easily praise you in front of others, you have to keep working hard."

Li Erniu kept nodding.

"By the way, I heard that you have a close relationship with Cuihua from Xinghua Village?"

"Who said that? I don't know her at all."

"Who do you know, then?"

"I only know your uncle and his family in Xinghua Village." Li Erniu said naturally, not knowing that he had fallen into a trap.

Su Yin's face darkened and he held out his hand, "One tael of silver."

Li Erniu was stunned and hadn't reacted yet.

"What, what one ounce of silver?"

"You just said you know someone from Xinghua Village."

Li Erniu's eyes widened in shock. "I, I, I...it was clearly you who mentioned it, so I..."

"No excuse. If someone else mentioned Xinghua Village, what if you also responded? Wouldn't that expose you?"

Su Yin continued, "When I mentioned Xinghua Village, you should have said, what Xinghua Village? You have never heard of the name of this village. Remember, you are now from Fengqi Village in Pinghu County."

Li Erniu lowered his head, looking annoyed, "I was wrong."

Li Erpo brought over one or two taels of silver.

Su Yin didn't hesitate to accept the silver. If she didn't accept it and make them feel bad, they wouldn't learn their lesson.

As soon as Su Yin left, Li Erpo hit him hard, "Your father just told you this morning to remember it, you must remember it, how could you forget it so easily? What are you thinking about?"

Others came over to criticize Li Erniu, especially Li Erbo.

"This concerns everyone's life. Use your brain and don't let it go in one ear and out the other, thus endangering everyone's life."

"Dad, Mom, I was wrong. I won't do it again."

The others soon found out that Li Erniu had been fined silver.

Su Yin was wandering around the team like a street kid again. It was not known whether it was because of the lesson of Li Erniu or because everyone remembered it, so she was not caught for the second time.

When they were almost reaching Showa County, Su Yin found Li Erniu again and set up all kinds of traps for him.

This time Li Erniu learned his lesson and didn't fall for it again.

Su Yin was very pleased that Li Erniu had grown up.

Nan Jingzhi naturally knew about their actions.

He found Su Yin and asked, "Have you made up your mind?"

"I've thought about it."

Nan Jingzhi felt a little regretful, "If you go to Shangjing City in the future, you can come to Zuixianju in the south of the city to find me."

"good."

Nan Jingzhi asked curiously, "Why do you want to change the name of the village?"

"You will know in a moment. You'd better not let anyone know that you are from Nanshan County."

Nan Jingzhi raised his eyebrows, knowing that she was not someone who spoke without a purpose, "Okay, I understand."

Perhaps it was because the magistrate of Linzhi County collected too much money, the number of refugees on this road suddenly decreased, and it was often necessary to walk for a long time before encountering one or two refugees.

"How far is the fork in the road you mentioned?" Su Yin asked Master Wan San.

"Almost there. Just ahead."

That fork in the road is the intersection of Linzhi County, Changping County, and Zhaohe County.

Seeing that they had not encountered any refugees from Linzhi County, Wan Sanye could not help but say, "I have to say, we are lucky. Otherwise, we would have to go to the intersection of Changping County and wait for a witness."

"I hope we won't meet anyone from Changping County at the fork in the road." Su Yin said with a smile.

When we reached the fork in the road, we didn't see anyone coming from the direction of Changping County.

Su Yin breathed a sigh of relief. Their luck was really good.

When we saw the Zhaohe County Tower, a group of soldiers appeared on the official road ahead and blocked the road just like in Linzhi County.

When everyone saw the soldiers blocking the road, an idea automatically popped into their minds.

That is...

And they have to collect tolls.

“This is another charge.”

“I don’t know how much Showa County will collect this time?”

"Hopefully not too much."

"Well, don't expect them to charge less."

Everyone was whispering to each other and no one was in a good mood.

When they were near the blockade, the soldiers shouted to the people in line, "Those coming from behind, split into two teams. Those coming from Linzhi County stand on that side, and those coming from Changping County stand on the other side."

"Everyone needs to show their household registration certificate and each family needs to pay one penny of silver, and then they can pass through."

Zhang Bingliang and others were delighted when they heard that they only had to pay one penny of silver to pass.

This is much less than what was paid before in Linzhi County.

Su Yin led the team directly to Changping County.

Yang Dashan winked at the people behind him, and after they understood, they winked at the people behind them again. One by one, they all understood that they were going to be tested next.

Nan Jingzhi and others were in the back.

Nan Wu couldn't help but speak up, "Miss Su is really amazing. She had anticipated all of this."

Nan Jingzhi figured out the reason after he returned. He patted his forehead and felt that he was too excited and was not as attentive as that little girl.

"Notify the people behind you to keep their mouths shut and not let anything slip."

Although he has the ability to handle it, it is better not to reveal his identity if possible.

Who knows what will be waiting for you after being exposed.

The team naturally split into two teams. Perhaps because Linzhi County had been plundered too harshly, the people there were relatively fewer, and most of them were even poorer than those in Changping County.
