When Qin Yue turned around, he saw Uncle Cen looking at him with a smile on his face. Qin Yue coughed awkwardly: "Uncle Cen, have you completed the things I asked you to do?"
Uncle Cen hurriedly said, "I instructed my shopkeepers to open a grain store and a cloth shop before the New Year. Don't worry, young master!"
Qin Yue nodded and said, "I acquired a cloth shop in Rongcheng some time ago. You should choose a reliable manager to take over."
Upon hearing this, Cen Bo bowed in agreement.
Qin Yue was not a person who enjoyed himself. There was not much luggage in the camp. He packed his clothes, picked up his bag and put it on the carriage, then left the West City camp.
As soon as they left the West City military camp, the four shadow guards immediately followed.
Years ago, the four of them were assigned by Qin Yue to escort the Fourth Prince back, and they had never been with Qin Yue. After returning, they heard that the prince had cleverly defeated the enemy, and the four of them felt both proud and terrified.
If anything happens to their master, they, as Qin Yue's shadow guards, must die to atone for their sins!
Cen Bo drove the carriage to the general's mansion and stopped. Qin Yue jumped off the carriage and looked around. The surrounding area was basically the residence of the officers and soldiers with some official positions in the army.
Qin Yue followed Cen Bo into the general's mansion. What he saw was a huge training ground with all kinds of weapons placed on the wooden racks. After passing through the corridor, he arrived at the main hall.
At this time, a group of servants were standing in front of the main hall door to welcome the arrival of the young master.
Upon seeing Qin Yue, the old housekeeper hurried forward and saluted: "Young Master and General should be here. The general often stays in the barracks and never comes back. Now that the young master is here, our general's mansion will no longer be as deserted as before!"
Qin Yue exchanged a few pleasantries with the housekeeper, then followed Cen Bo back to his residence.
The rosewood carved step-out bed, the ebony pear blossom table, and the jade-carved screen with a scene of lakes and mountains were exactly the same layout as Qin Yue's room in Beijing.
"Uncle Cen, thank you very much!"
Uncle Cen smiled and said, "As long as the young master is used to living here, it's fine!"
After putting away the things he brought back from the barracks, Cen Bo retreated.
At this time, the four people who had been hiding in the dark immediately appeared and knelt in front of Qin Yue: "I am late, please punish me, sir!"
Qin Yue rubbed his brows and said tiredly, "Everyone, get up. This is not the main camp. There's no need to hide in the dark. Go down and ask Uncle Cen to arrange a place for you to stay. Yingyi, when you go down, check on Miss Li from Lijia Village and see what she's been busy with recently."
The four of them agreed and then bowed and retreated.
On the second day, Grandpa Li came to call his granddaughter to buy a cow early in the morning. It is important to buy livestock early. If you go too late, the good quality livestock may be picked up by others!
Li Yan quickly packed herself up, and the grandfather and grandson drove the donkey cart into the city.
Probably because spring has arrived, the livestock market is very crowded today, and donkey carts cannot get in at all.
Mr. Li had no choice but to spend two cents to leave the donkey cart in a place where there was someone to look after it.
The grandfather and grandson followed the crowd into the crowded market. From the bustling market, the cries of chickens, ducks, donkeys and sheep could be heard from time to time. The two walked around but found no trace of the cow.
Li Yan asked in confusion, "Master, we've walked around, but why haven't we found any trace of the cow?"
Mr. Li sighed, "Maybe it's the beginning of spring. People with land are reluctant to sell it now!"
Just as Li Yan was feeling disappointed, a familiar voice rang out in her ears: "What a coincidence? Miss Li, are you here to buy livestock too?"
Li Yan looked in the direction of the voice and found that it was Qin Yue whom she hadn't seen for a long time. She nodded and said, "Of course, those who come to this market want to buy livestock. Could it be that they are here for fun?"
Qin Yue knew that his question was indeed a gimmick, so he touched his nose awkwardly and asked with a smile, "Girl, did you buy it?"
Li Yan looked at Qin Yue at this time. Qin Yue was the son of the Northwest General. If he wanted to buy a cow, it would definitely be easier for him than for herself.
Thinking of this, Li Yan said to Qin Yue with a smile on her face: "Master Qin, do you know where to buy oxen? We walked around the market today and couldn't find any!"
Looking at the girl with a flattering smile on her face, Qin Yue felt amused. This girl was trying to take advantage of the situation!
Qin Yue frowned, thinking deeply, and after a moment he replied, "That's easy. Tomorrow I'll bring five oxen to your house!"
These words frightened the two of them. Li Yan quickly waved her hand and refused, "No, no, Master Qin, just sell me one!"
Qin Yue waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it. This cow is not for sale to you. I will bring people to take the cow away tomorrow. You just use it!"
There is such a good thing in the world? Mr. Li pinched his thigh in disbelief. It really hurt. He thought to himself, "I am not dreaming, am I?"
Li Yan didn't care about that. She found five cows to work for her and agreed readily, fearing that if she agreed too late, the other party would go back on their word!
