Chapter 755 These two young masters are definitely going to be angry
Diancui was about to shake her head and say she didn't know, when she heard Huashan's voice: "Boss, I'm back."
Sang Zhixia paused while scooping the rice porridge to her mouth and immediately asked, "Where is the person?"
"Are they all safely sent away? Have you arranged everything along the way? Are there enough escorts?"
It was the first time for these two little ones to travel far away, and they had never acted alone before.
Now neither she nor Xu Yu could leave, so they could only send the person away.
Can……
Thinking of Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou's quick tempers, Sang Zhixia couldn't help but sigh, "Did anything go wrong during the process? Did it cause any trouble?"
Hua Shan quickly approached and said, "Don't worry, sir. The two young masters didn't notice anything. They drank their soup obediently and fell asleep in less than half an hour."
"Everything has been arranged for the trip back to Chuzhou. Cheng Qi has brought 60 people to escort us personally. We guarantee that nothing will go wrong."
From Diancui's perspective, Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou never thought that they would be knocked unconscious.
Qianlizui is useless on Xu Yanran, because she knows the difference.
But considering that Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou only focus on martial arts and are not good at anything else, even if they were told that Qianlizui was mixed into the soup, these two guys might not know what Qianlizui was used for.
Hua Shan caught the look of relief on Sang Zhixia's face and sighed softly, "The two young masters were rushing to the ferry to find you, but when I arrived you were clamoring to go out."
"I saw that the others were about to give up, so I just said it was your idea. I told them to go to the ferry to help after they were almost full, and to bring you some food on the way. That's how I managed to persuade them for a while."
"They were so worried about your safety at the ferry that they couldn't even wait for the kitchen to come out. One of them squatted by the stove with a large bowl, quickly shoveling down several bowls of rice, fearing that if they ate too slowly, they would delay your work."
The two boys tried their best to eat and drink their fill. Worried that they would not have enough strength to help, they stretched their necks to eat more.
Huashan used the excuse of sending a food box to Sang Zhixia, and Sang Yanyou wrapped it inside and out with several layers of oilcloth.
Xu Mingyang was holding the lunch box. His vision went dark and he could not stand steadily. Before falling down, he put the lunch box firmly on the ground.
This was because they were worried that the food box would be dropped and Sang Zhixia would be caught in the rain and hungry at the ferry.
When Sang Zhixia heard this, she felt an indescribable sourness deep in her tongue.
Hua Shan smiled bitterly and said, "By the time these two young masters wake up, they will have already left Jiangnan."
"But when you come back and see him again, he'll probably be in a bad mood and hard to appease."
The younger ones in the family always obeyed Sang Zhixia and never said a word against her.
But this time...
You can tell with your fingernail that these two young masters are definitely going to be pissed.
Sang Zhixia was in a complicated mood: "I have to do this. I'm worried about them being here."
"Just be angry, I'll comfort you later."
Two silly boys, how can they not be coaxed?
Sang Zhixia thought of Xu Yanran in Chuzhou and immediately said, "Remember to send a message to Chuzhou. No matter what happens here, don't act rashly."
"Especially Elder Qi and Yanran, you must stay in Chuzhou. Before I return, it is best not to leave Chuzhou City, and you are not allowed to come to the south at all!"
Huashan quickly nodded and agreed.
Xue Liu saw that Sang Zhixia seemed to be in a bad mood, so he deliberately raised the empty bowl in his hand and said, "Boss, please try it."
"They say this porridge is specially made for you. I drank a whole bowl in no time and ate a sesame seed bun. If you keep holding the bowl like this, it might be gone soon."
Sang Zhixia was at a loss for words and uttered, "If you're hungry, eat more. If you're not full, ask someone to fill it up."
"You've come this far, how can I let you go hungry?"
Taking temporary shelter from the wind and rain, people who had been running around in the heavy rain for a whole day endured their fatigue and panic and hurried to fill their stomachs in the wind and rain.
But just one meal's time passed before bad news came from Nandukou again.
The last step above the ferry was completely flooded.
The steps at Nandukou are like the soul-calling banners in the hands of the King of Hell, each step is startling.
Everyone who suffered the disaster back then knew that once the river water completely overflowed the steps and rushed ashore, it would be a disaster that would make the whole city cry out.
Sang Zhixia banged the porcelain spoon in her hand against the rim of the bowl with a clang. She frowned and said, "Are the people at the ferry all right?"
"We took precautions and were far away, so nothing happened. But the rain outside seems to be getting heavier. Chief Lin sent me here to ask your opinion. Our company's granary at the ferry has been mostly evacuated, but others haven't."
"Now many people are worried that their belongings will be flooded at the ferry. The men are busy digging canals in the city to earn the reward from the Fan family. Many women and children are rushing over in the dark to collect their belongings."
"There are simply too many people here, and the water is still rising. Our people at the ferry are busy loading and carrying sandbags, so we simply can't spare more people to oversee it. If this continues, I'm afraid something bad will happen!"
The ferry covers a vast area. In addition to some well-known big merchants who have established their ship industries, there are also many local people who make a living there.
It may be just a small stall, or it may be a small shop put together with the efforts of the whole family.
No matter what business you are in, it is the livelihood of the whole family.
Before, most people were still hoping for luck, thinking that no matter how heavy the rain was, it would not reach the shore. This momentary negligence led to the current situation.
It was dark and raining heavily, and the water level continued to rise rapidly.
Under such circumstances, the ferry was already in chaos, and with the addition of many weak women, children, the elderly and the young, chaos ensued.
Sang Zhixia put down her half-eaten bowl of porridge with a bang, and holding down Xue Liu who was about to stand up, she said, "You stay here and calm down."
"Boss, I..."
"The wound on your foot is not shallow, and the rain water is not clean. If you soak it rashly, you may get into more trouble."
Sang Zhixia said in an unquestionable tone: "I'll go to the ferry, you and He Can keep an eye on the city."
"Also, immediately send someone to tell Gui Sheng and Fan Shicheng to stay awake tonight and not sleep too deeply. Send someone to East City to check the water situation. If anything is wrong, immediately remove everyone in East City!"
Dongcheng is a rather special area in Nanyun City.
Unlike the prosperous South City, the East City is located at the lowest point of Nanyun City. If the current rain continues, no matter whether the ferry can be blocked or not, the accumulated water in the city will be the first to flood the roofs.
The houses are low and close together like fish scales. Often a family of seven or eight people live in one small house, and it is difficult to find a place to stay.
And the people who live here are troublesome.
There was a mixed crowd of people from all walks of life, all of them were poor families with no assets.
Sang Zhixia arranged for someone to go there during the day, but the answer he got was not optimistic, and the people in Dongcheng were unwilling to leave.
Faced with such a group of completely unpersuasive people, the people who went to check the situation talked until their mouths dried, but they couldn't persuade any of them.
Xue Liu frowned and said, "Boss, when the Gui family went there during the day, they were beaten out by a group of old ladies with brooms."
Sang Zhixia: "..."
