Chapter 136 I saw them kissing
Hu Wei's eyebrows jumped, "What do you mean it's not available?"
Qiangzi's sparse eyebrows were knitted tightly. "I don't know what's going on. Today I contacted the merchant who used to do business with us. He said that the border control is very strict now, and he doesn't want merchants to sell grain. So they can't provide us with grain in the short term."
"What about other things? You can't buy them either?"
Qiangzi nodded.
Hu Wei's face darkened. "Which country?"
"Chu."
Among the three surrounding countries, Chu was the closest to them. They also had commercial cooperation with the other two countries, but they had to travel a longer distance.
"Send people to other countries to ask if they can still buy it."
"I've asked, and both countries have also closed their borders. No one is allowed to come in, and carriages are not allowed to come in or out. We can't buy anything now."
After saying this, Hu Wei's face became even uglier.
"How long will the food in our granaries last?"
"Two months is enough, but you forgot, Chief, we have to pay grain in December. Once the grain is paid, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for three days, let alone two months."
Hu Wei's eyes changed slightly. He actually forgot about this matter.
"Go ask around and see if you can buy back as much food as possible."
"Yes, I will try my best to find out."
This is the only solution for now.
After Qiangzi retreated, Hu Wei's face remained gloomy.
"Brother, we still have to pay grain to those people, why don't we just not pay this year."
Hu Wei came back to his senses and glared at him, "Do you think I want to hand it over? Those grains were bought with the lives of our people. But if we don't hand it over, haven't you seen how terrifying those people are? Even when the Gu tribe was still around, we had to surrender to them. We can't even defeat the Gu tribe, so how can we defeat those people?"
"Now we have Lady Su!"
Hu Wei admitted that Su Ying was really powerful, but no matter how powerful she was, she was just one person.
"If you don't want her to die in their hands, stop saying such stupid things."
Qiao Yang met the stern look in Hu Wei's eyes and said nothing more.
The inability to buy food not only troubled Hu Wei, but also plunged Qinglong Camp into a lower pressure.
"Chief, what should we do? I don't know what's wrong with those countries. They suddenly stopped allowing border trade."
Wu Feng had a gloomy face and said, "You continue to send people to investigate and buy back as much grain as possible."
"yes."
After the messenger left, other commanders spoke one after another.
"Chief, if we still can't buy it, we have to make other plans."
"Yes, our food must have been stolen by the Tiger Camp. We broke into the Tiger Camp and emptied their warehouse, so that we can have food."
"But the woman is guarding in the Tiger Camp. We may not be able to succeed."
"Then get rid of that woman first before you do anything."
"How to solve it?"
Everyone turned to look at the person who was speaking. He was Yu Tong, the youngest of the twelve commanders.
He had a pale face and a thin and weak figure. At first glance, he looked like a weak scholar. But who would have thought that he had taken more lives than read more books.
"We have all experienced what that woman is capable of. If we want to defeat her head-on, even if we can win, we will have to pay a huge price. So, as the leader said, we can only outsmart her. These past few days, I have been thinking about a method over and over again."
Wu Feng asked, "What method?"
A hint of malice flashed in Yu Tong's eyes, "Catching a turtle in a jar."
Yu Tong slowly opened his mouth and told them his plan. After listening to it, Wu Feng and the others felt that it was highly feasible and they just needed to make thorough arrangements.
"What do you think, leader?" After some discussion, Yu Tong handed the final decision to Wu Feng.
Wu Feng frowned tightly. If they just wanted to vent their anger for the Qinglong Camp, they could find a suitable opportunity at any time. But now they were eager to get the food back, and they could not delay any longer.
"Okay, let's do it this way. You deploy them carefully and make sure the people in the Tiger Camp don't find any flaws. We must win this time!"
"yes."
…
After Su Ying returned, the first thing she did was to go to the coal pit that had been dug today to check the situation.
Tian Mu has been guarding here all day today.
"How about it?"
"The fire inside is still burning. I have covered the opening, leaving only a vent."
There is only one vent in the pit now, and we can't see clearly what's going on inside. We can only wait a few days before digging it up and taking a look.
"Okay, come back before you go to bed to see if the fire is out. If there is no problem, come back tomorrow morning. Go back first."
"Yeah, okay."
At night, after eating, Su Ying held Erbao in her arms and took a bath in the bathroom.
"Mother, don't you like Daddy?"
Su Ying paused, secretly blaming Xiao Jin for teaching the kid some messy things again.
"Why do you ask that, Ling'er?"
Erbao puffed up his increasingly chubby face and said, "Mother doesn't even let Daddy kiss her."
Close to Xiao Jin?
Su Ying imagined the scene...
For some reason, her heartbeat suddenly quickened.
Su Ying subconsciously covered her chest. What was going on? Was she overworked and had a heart rhythm disorder?
"You can't kiss people casually, sir." Su Ying answered perfunctorily.
Erbao tilted his head and said, "Is it not allowed? But I saw Uncle Jiang and Aunt Lin kissing each other today. They are adults too, so why can they kiss each other?"
When Su Ying opened her eyes, she seemed to see a new green above Xiao Jin's head.
"Uncle Jiang and Aunt Lin are kissing each other. Ling'er, are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"
Erbao struggled with his big eyes as if trying to prove that he was not lying and said, "No, this is what happened today, ah! They kissed!"
Erbao said this in a childish voice, and imitated Su Ying and threw himself into her arms and kissed her with his little mouth.
The dormant gossip gene in Su Ying's body was beating wildly, "Ling'er, don't tell your father about this."
The cute Erbao looked puzzled, "Why?"
"Your father will cry if he finds out."
"Okay, dear, it's right to listen to your mother."
Although Erbao didn't understand, he still nodded obediently and said, "Ling'er, don't tell Daddy."
"Okay!" Because she wanted to tell Xiao Jin in person!
She desperately wanted to know how he would react if her little wife cheated on him!
When Su Ying came out of the bathroom carrying Erbao, she saw two figures standing in the darkness of the backyard. She looked closely and found that they were Lin Zhuyu and Jiang Yang, who had cheated on Xiao Jin!
Su Ying silently covered Erbao's little mouth and returned to the bathroom.
Thanks to "Yingzi" for the reward (Zen-style bow~~~~)
