Song Yuehua stayed in the Taoist temple for three days, and Xiaobao came to see her after playing chess every day.
The two sisters leaned against each other, and Xiaobao only wanted to listen to Song Yuehua talk about Taoyuan Village and the chess hall.
When the three days were up, Pei Feng came early in the morning in a carriage to pick people up.
It was finally time to leave. Song Yuehua took Xiaobao and Xiaodie to talk, and they walked all the way to the outside of the Taoist temple.
At this moment, four or five carriages suddenly stopped at the foot of the mountain.
Song Yuehua looked over and saw several people jumping down from the carriage. Upon closer inspection, they were Ji Ming, Duan Yidao, Gou Wazi, Wei Da and Wang Xiao.
"Da Ya!"
Gouwazi waved his hands and jumped out of the car, almost spraining his foot. Fortunately, Mr. Duan next to him grabbed him.
"Master Duan, Ji Ming, what are you doing..." Song Yuehua trotted down.
Ji Ming passed Song Yuehua, ran to Guan Xiaodie, and said softly, "Xiaodie, I'm back."
Guan Xiaodie bit her lip and stared at him. After a long while, she finally said three words, "Why bother?"
"It's not bitter. Thinking of you, it's not bitter at all." Ji Ming said with a smile.
Guan Xiaodie turned away, and Ji Ming walked around to her and asked, "I hope everything goes well on your trip to Bianzhou. Are you okay here?"
"Um."
"That's good."
There was a noise coming from the Taoist temple. Guan Xiaodie raised her head and looked at him hurriedly. She had a thousand words to say but didn't know how to start. "Take good care of yourself."
After saying this, Guan Xiaodie hurried into the temple.
Jiming shouted through the door, "Wait till I write to you!"
The door was closed from the inside and no one responded to him.
Xiao Bao was standing nearby, looking at Ji Ming with disdain, "You are such a tiger!"
"You little girl," Ji Ming laughed angrily, "You've grown up so much, and you still know how to curse?"
Song Yuehua patted Duan Yidao's arm and said with a smile, "You guys are finally back. How come you've been gone for so long and you're still here?"
"There's something to be done in Wenzhou. Ji Ming has been thinking about it for a whole year, so he has to make this trip." Duan Yidao raised his head and pointed at Ji Ming.
Song Yuehua talked to Wang Xiao and Wei Da for a while.
Looking back, Ji Ming and Xiao Bao had been arguing for quite a while.
"What are you doing? Just making trouble." Song Yuehua drove Ji Ming away.
A few people still had to go back first, and Song Yuehua asked Xiaobao to go back to the Taoist temple.
Ji Ming asked curiously and found out that Xiaobao was playing chess next to Taoist Miaoshou.
"This little girl is really amazing." Ji Ming said admiringly.
Song Yuehua and a few others walked for a long distance, found a teahouse, sat down and started talking.
"When do you plan to go back?" Song Yuehua asked.
Ji Ming shook his head. "I went to Xiaoqing's shop first and will be leaving for home soon. By the way, is my shop okay?"
"It's pretty good. Business is good and the shopkeeper is nice too." Song Yuehua said.
Ji Ming snorted and laughed, "It's been so long, but you still have the evil intention."
Song Yuehua didn't bother to pay attention to him and asked why they took so long this trip.
Even if the carriage was carrying goods, a trip would take three months.
In addition, we had to coordinate with the Yan family's exile schedule when we went there. We were gone for six months and should be back in October.
Now it's more than a month late, something must have happened along the way.
"Nothing happened, actually. We are a group of trainees, catching up with a team of escorts. We may run into some minor troubles occasionally, but they are nothing to worry about."
Jiming took a sip of tea and began to speak.
After sending the people to the ancient sand city in the border state, all they saw was yellow sand, the people were yellow, the land was yellow, and it felt like the sky was dyed yellow.
Song Yuehua gave Ji Ming six gold bars at that time. Excluding one gold bar for travel expenses, if the remaining five gold bars were given directly to the Yan family, I'm afraid they would not last long.
Taking advantage of the relaxed supervision, Ji Ming and Master Duan sought out the three brothers of the Yan family to discuss what to do.
Neither the big nor the small had any idea about this, but Yan Yujiu suggested buying a shop and opening a security company.
"Escort company?" Song Yuehua couldn't figure it out. Wang Da was the only one left there. How should this escort company be run?
Ji Ming continued, "It's not impossible to run a escort business, but if you want to stay there, it's best to set up a shop first."
There are few things in Gusha City and the prices are high, but the shops are cheap.
Originally, Ji Ming pulled a cart full of stuff over there, intending to sell it there.
Once you buy a shop, it will be more convenient to sell things.
“By the way, we also met an acquaintance there.” Ji Ming said with a smile.
Duan Yidao coughed lightly and turned his face away.
"Who did you meet?" Seeing their behavior, Song Yuehua asked with a smile.
"Zhu Yanli." Ji Ming said, "She opened a tavern in Gusha City with the five-year-old Zhu Ruyue. The business is pretty good."
Song Yuehua asked hurriedly, "Did she send a letter back?"
Ji Ming nodded. "In the carriage, there is a letter for Grandma Wang and a letter for you. I'll give them to you later."
With acquaintances, Ji Ming and others quickly figured out the rules of Gusha City.
The people in Gusha City are not very particular. It is a remote frontier place of exile, and having something to survive is enough for them.
It only took Ji Ming and others two or three days to build a shelf, put the goods on it, hang a sign and start selling.
The counter was built by Duan Yidao several days after the store opened.
Ji Ming wrote down the needs of the people in Gusha City so that he would know what to bring on the next trip.
"Are you still going to the border state?" Song Yuehua asked.
"What a joke! I own a share of that shop, so why don't I go there?" Ji Ming said, "We have to go back and forth anyway, so I might as well open a route for escorting goods."
