Chapter 124 My uncle is here
Fu Lingshan found a seat in the room and took out the contract. "Everyone, line up! Huzi, Liuzi, you two come and help me maintain order."
Hu Zi and Liu Zi were called and ran over happily.
"Brother Fu, leave the maintenance of order to us."
The two were originally members of the guard team that maintained order in the slums. In the past year or so, every household could not afford to eat, so who needed the guard team?
So these people have no place to use their skills, and now being able to resume their old jobs can be considered a job.
"Well," Ling Shan began to sign a contract with them.
There were people maintaining order and the scene was not chaotic.
Those who had signed the contract couldn't wait to go to the grain store with the token.
Soon, a long line formed in front of the grain store.
At this time, a low-key team entered Taohua Town.
The team consists of six people, all dressed in tight clothes and with sharp eyes.
The aura of these people looked like they had killed someone before.
"What's going on?" Xu Zhenhai, riding on a tall horse, was a little puzzled when he saw the situation here.
The follower went to inquire about it, and came back after asking a few people.
"General, these people are here to collect food."
"Get food?" Xu Zhenhai's doubts grew.
Without asking any more questions, he went straight to the restaurant next to the grain store.
"My little niece even gave a different name to the restaurant." Xu Zhenhai smiled and shook his head.
He had only seen this child when she was just born and had never seen her again since then. He was very grateful for what she had done for the soldiers at the border.
The attendant went up and knocked on the door.
Yaoyao, the white fox, was originally sleeping, but she reluctantly opened her eyes when she heard the knock on the door.
Now she runs a restaurant at night, and it has become a habit for her to sleep during the day.
I was woken up by someone and I'm still a little grumpy.
"Who is it?" He came downstairs with messy hair.
As soon as I opened the door, I was met with a pair of sharp eyes.
Well?
Xu Zhenhai was dumbfounded. He didn't need to think that the unkempt little girl in front of him must be his niece.
This girl's eyes are exactly the same as his sister's.
"Yaoyao, I'm your uncle." Xu Zhenhai tried his best to make his voice sound gentle.
Because of years of fighting and killing, he has majesty and murderous aura, and he is afraid of scaring his little niece.
The white fox blinked its eyes, and the sleepiness was scared away.
"Uncle?"
The man in front of him had a slender figure and a face as beautiful as jade. Years of fighting had not darkened his skin, which was fair with a healthy glow.
Wearing a black robe with a Qilin pattern and a black fox fur cape, he looked even more noble and handsome.
Baihu Yaoyao was a little stunned. Isn’t this the real-life version of Lanling King?
He is so handsome, but he has to wear a mask when he goes to the battlefield?
Xu Zhenhai raised his red lips and rubbed the white fox Yaoyao's head with a smile, "Yaoyao, you've grown so big? You were just born when your uncle first saw you."
"Hehe, I didn't expect my uncle to come so soon. Come in quickly." Baihu Yaoyao was also very happy in her heart.
The intimate feeling of blood connection made her not reject his touch.
Xu Zhenhai brought his people into the restaurant, and the room was as warm as spring.
Although it is spring in the northwest now and the snow has melted, it is still a bit cold.
The room is so warm, it must be because of the heating.
Xu Zhenhai sat down, and the rest of the followers found a place to sit down.
Baihu Yaoyao took out the teapot and said, "Uncle, let them make their own tea. I'll get some snacks for you."
Then he ran upstairs.
She had just gotten up and hadn't washed yet, so she quickly returned to her space to start washing.
After washing up, he picked some fruits, some dried meat, and some snacks unique to the demon race before leaving the space.
"Uncle, here are some fruits and snacks, as well as some dried meat. You can eat some first."
They were exhausted from the long journey and probably didn't have a good meal.
Let them fill their stomachs with these things first, and then we will make a big meal for them later.
"Thank you, Miss." Several guards took the things with a smile.
Xu Zhenhai smiled as he watched her busying around. "If you have anything to do, ask them to help you. Hurry up and sit down and talk to your uncle."
"Okay." The white fox Yaoyao sat opposite him obediently.
"Yaoyao, I wanted to come and see you before the New Year, but there were too many things to do in the military camp, and the Tianlang Country repeatedly invaded our border, so I had to guard the border. It wasn't until now that I had time to come and see you."
"You won't blame your uncle for not keeping his word, will you?"
I had wanted to come and see them before the New Year, and they had already discussed it through the voice stone.
As a result, when the enemy attacked, he had to fight first.
The Tianlang people have lived in the grassland for generations. The people are tough and resources are scarce. When winter comes, they have no choice but to burn, kill and loot on the border.
As the general guarding the border, he now has a lot to do.
Yaoyao, the white fox, understood the hardships of guarding the border. "Don't blame yourself, uncle. I'm doing fine! As long as you're all well, that's all that matters."
Xu Zhenhai was comforted. It was his little niece who really cared about him.
Unlike that brat Shengshi, who didn't even think about helping him defend the city when he arrived at the border, and just left him behind and went back to the capital.
"Yaoyao is still the best." Xu Zhenhai took a sip of tea happily.
"Uncle, do you have something else to do this time?" Baihu Yaoyao could see that his uncle was a little embarrassed to speak.
It would be better if she asked first.
'The other guards also pricked up their ears.
They came this time because they really wanted to ask the young lady for something.
"Yes! The soldiers at the border are almost out of food, and the herbs you provided are running low. I came here to ask if you can still get some food and herbs."
"Originally, the Crown Prince was in charge of the court. Even if there was no food transported to the border, at least the soldiers could still receive pay. Now the Crown Prince says he can no longer provide pay and food. I can only find a way on my own."
"Don't worry, my uncle brought you a lot of gold, silver, and treasures, as well as a lot of beautiful jewelry. They are all considered as the cost of buying food and medicinal herbs."
These gold, silver and jewelry were all treasures he looted when he invaded the Tianlang Kingdom.
It’s just right for buying food and medicinal herbs.
Baihu Yaoyao was a little amused and said, "Uncle, why are you so polite to my niece? I can get food and medicine."
"How about this! I can also send people to the border you guard to open an affordable grain store?"
The people in the border town where my uncle is stationed live a very hard life, even harder than in Taohua Town.
If affordable grain stores were opened at the border, life would be much better for the people there.
She can also indirectly obtain the power of faith, killing two birds with one stone.
Xu Zhenhai's eyes lit up, "Are you serious? That would be great."
He had visited the affordable grain stores in Yunzhou City. Every day, there were long queues of people waiting to buy food. Today, Yunzhou City is no longer dead because of the affordable grain stores.
The people also began to live and work in peace and contentment, and after the spring came, they began to plan to farm.
"Of course it's true!" Baihu Yaoyao told him a lot of her thoughts, and before they knew it, they were chatting until noon.
In order to entertain them well, Baihu Yaoyao made hot pot directly.
Xu Zhenhai felt numb when he looked at the vegetables and fruits grown in the restaurant.
What kind of amazing person is his niece? She can actually grow vegetables in the middle of winter.
If the people living in the border areas can also grow vegetables, their lives will be more prosperous.
