Chapter 387 Missing Something



No wonder the boss found this little girl!

Although he seemed to be very low-key, he actually investigated the relationships between every household in Xiaotian Village so clearly that he knew exactly who had how many acres of land, what they planted, how many people were in the family, and how the family members got along.

Even the conditions of each family, which family is most likely to wait for the grain to mature and then sell it for emergency use, and how much they can sell are all guessed.

"I didn't expect that the young lady actually understood this so clearly. I am really shortsighted."

Liu Shi was now completely convinced of her admiration and stood up and bowed to Wan Ling'er.

Seeing him like this, Wan Ling'er quickly stood up and returned the greeting: "Master Liu, you are too kind. I live there anyway, and since Miss Ji asked me to do something, I couldn't help but pay a little attention and inquire a little more. As long as you don't mind my little thoughts, that's all fine."

Liu Shicong looked at her with admiration: "No, no, I am ashamed of myself. I am not as careful as you in doing things."

Seeing that the two of them were having a pleasant conversation, Ji Changying felt a lot more relieved.

After having a good meal and a few drinks, Wan Ling'er said with embarrassment that she still needed to go buy some things, so she left first and gave the private room to the two of them to talk.

"This girl is not bad, but she doesn't look very healthy. Is she okay?" Liu Shicong watched Wan Ling'er go down the stairs before turning around and asking about the concern hidden in his heart.

"No problem for now. This girl is ambitious. If you train her well, she might become a great assistant to you in the future."

Speaking of this, Liu Shicong came back to his senses: "Why are you going to Kyoto all of a sudden? What happened? I can't help you with anything else, but I can help you with the money. Business has been good recently, and we have quite a bit of money on the books. I'll bring you the account books and the money later."

"There's no rush about the money. Didn't you just expand your shop? Keep it for circulation! I'll write you a letter when I get to Kyoto. From now on, I'll check the accounts every New Year and send them to Kyoto."

Liu Shicong saw that she looked fine, so he knew it was nothing bad and didn't ask any more questions.

"A large quantity of food will arrive soon. In the name of Li Changmu, you should donate two hundred dan of food to Prince Zhongli on the front line."

Liu Shicong took a deep breath and said, "Two hundred dan?! If converted, that's a full twenty thousand kilograms of grain! Did you donate it?"

Ji Changying nodded: "That's right, donate it to the people fighting on the front line. These 20,000 kilograms will not hurt us, but for the people on the front line, it is their hope of survival."

Although these may be just a drop in the bucket for them, after seeing Ji Fengshou and his men's days on the front line and the soldiers fighting for the people on the battlefield, Ji Changying felt that it was worth it.

Hearing her words, Liu Shicong fell silent.

Okay!

The boss is rich and powerful, what can he say?

"I'll go pick up the goods. In an hour, you go to the yard where we delivered the goods last time and take the grain away."

After the two of them finished talking, Ji Changying did not stay any longer. She and Liu Shicong went straight to Huang Dadao's small courtyard after parting ways.

There was no one inside, so Mo You took them out with Hengtong Escort Company.

Ji Changying opened the lock on the door from the inside, walked in swaggeringly, turned around, closed the door, and started unloading the goods in the yard.

The food in the space was free of charge. Bags of food were taken out and placed in the yard, and even several rooms were filled to the brim.

After waiting for an hour, Liu Shicong and his men hurried here. When they were about to knock on the door, it opened from the inside.

"Come in and move it!"

The two hundred dan of grain looked very impressive, and the men Liu Shicong brought with him were stunned.

They had never seen so much food in their lives!

Liu Shicong had seen a lot of big things, so he feigned composure and shouted, "What are you looking at? I'm just selling grain, how could I be so unprepared? Hurry up and get back to work!"

After being yelled at, the guys quickly came to their senses and went forward to move the food.

The neighbors around heard the noise and stretched their heads to look. When they saw so much grain, their eyes widened. But when they saw that it was a group of well-dressed people carrying it, they immediately stopped thinking.

However, there are some smart people who come forward to ask if they want help. As long as they are paid, they can work from morning to night...

After Ji Changying told Liu Shicong to lock the door when he left, he bought a lot of things and went to the martial arts school outside the city.

This time I came to say goodbye to the dog.

Lin Zhien couldn't believe her ears and anxiously wrote on the ground: "Is the whole family going?"

"Well, your aunt has done a great service in saving the noble this time. We are going to the capital to receive the award."

Ji Changying selectively recounted what had happened. Gou'er wrote anxiously, "Is Aunt's injury healed? Is it too late to hurry? When will she be back?"

"Your injury is healed now. It's okay to hurry on your way. I just don't know when I can come back. I came here to say goodbye to you."

Lin Zhien's eyes were red and her hands were shaking for a long time, and she couldn't continue writing.

After his mother died, he was all alone in the world.

I finally found a place to settle down, and my spiritual comfort was Sister Ji's family, but now they have to leave too.

Ji Changying comforted him softly, wiping his tears gently with her hands: "We are not going to abandon you. When you grow up or when we are free, we can come back to see you. You must live well here and learn more skills. I am still looking forward to your support in the future!"

Lin Zhien nodded heavily, her eyes suddenly becoming firm again, and she wrote on the ground stroke by stroke: "I will definitely come to visit you when I grow up."

——

Time passed quickly. Ji Changying mixed a small amount of sweet potatoes into a pile of potatoes. The white-hearted sweet potatoes had a very high starch content. He ate them while pounding his chest and swallowing them.

When others found out that the potatoes were the wrong color and came to find them, she remained calm and said, "Look again. Find the different ones and put them together. Then plant them together. Anyway, I think they look similar. They should all be crops. It won't affect the planting."

The group of people didn't suspect anything and really did as she said.

By the time the Hu family had packed their bags and prepared everything they needed for the journey, it was already August.

The weather was clear on August 5th. Under the watchful eyes of the villagers of Xiaotian Village and the Ji family, Ji Fengshou's family, the Zhou family, Jiang Qianruo and others, escorted by a team of red-sleeved soldiers, marched out of the village in a mighty procession.

Ji Fengshou sat in the carriage, feeling uneasy: "I always feel like something is missing."
