MTL - Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!-Chapter 849 Mu Lao Liu

  Chapter 849 Mu Lao Liu

  In the early morning of the eleventh day of the first lunar month, Chu Nanzhi led Ma Laifu, Sang Qi and two guards and followed Sun Huai to the south of Dangyang City.

  Since the New Year's Eve, the snow on the road has melted, and the long-lost sunshine has appeared in the sky.

  The chariots and horses were walking on the road that was gradually drying up, and the road was much smoother than when they entered Qinghe.

  From the inn to the south gate of the city, there were very few pedestrians on the road, and the scenery everywhere was very gloomy. This also made Chu Nanzhi realize that Ji Huaizhang's memorial to the court a while ago saying that Tanzhou was hit by the disaster was not a lie to Lin Jinxiao.

   It’s just what I’ve seen along the way. Although the land of Qinghe has been snowing heavily for months, it hasn’t caused any real disasters. It’s not as serious as Yongzhou and Ningzhou.

   According to the region, this is the norm in Northwest China.

  If the government order is appropriate, the surplus food in most people's homes can fully cope with the inconvenience caused by the ice and snow.

  From this point of view, the cause of the famine is most likely caused by man-made disasters.

  In the spacious carriage, looking at Chu Nanzhi's worry-ridden appearance, he suddenly couldn't bear to think that the clan brother would let the brother he just recognized to deal with the Mu family.

It's not easy to persuade her explicitly, so I can only say tactfully: "Brother Mu, if you take over 200,000 mu of fertile land in several counties in the southern suburbs of Dangyang City, I will guarantee you a lot of money after the spring begins." Yes, the six counties in the west of the county are no better than those in the south, these young Kings of Harvest are tyrannical and have caused the population to wither, Brother Yu might as well give you a solid example today, the fields in the counties west of the city are indeed not as good as those in the south of the city."

During the days when I met shopkeeper Sun, today is the first time I see him talking to me so openly. Although he may not be telling the truth, it must be good intentions for him to disobey the prefect's wishes and persuade himself not to get involved in the affairs of the west of the city. .

Just as he was about to answer, Sun Huai went on to say: "Brother Yu knows that the good brother is not short of money, and he also wants to take this opportunity to make a fortune. If you really want to buy more land, I have a way, two million After all, two silver coins are not a small number. By the time of the Lantern Festival, my brother will use the money raised from Luyan Port to purchase the remaining land before it arrives in Tanzhou. In this way, everyone will have a better chance. I will think of ways to introduce you to my brother It’s not a problem to have a few honorable families and a mere 200,000 mu of fertile land.”

   "I appreciate Shopkeeper Sun's kindness."

Chu Nanzhi stared intently at him with a somewhat nervous expression: "It's just that my younger brother and your young master have spoken beforehand, so how can you break your promise, even if the property in the west of the city loses money, I will accept it, so I won't let you embarrass me. "

   "Cough, brother's family is very big and doesn't care about money. I shouldn't have said anything, but this is not a decimal after all."

  Sun Huai persuaded again: "Brother Yu, I hope you will seriously consider it."

   "I know it well."

Chu Nanzhi smiled and said: "The Qinghe three prefectures are not the years when the Qinghe Prince's Mansion is in power. Even if the population in the west of the city has withered, it will be able to recover sooner or later. This Tanzhou is the most prosperous place in Qinghe. The six counties in the west of the city It is also close to Mengzhou, the capital of Qinghe, and a field of five taels of silver per mu can be sold for a good price in time."

  Seeing that she was so stubborn, Sun Huai didn't dare to persuade her anymore.

   Anyway, I have persuaded him, and it is not my fault that I will suffer in the future.

   "Since the virtuous brother has made up his mind, Brother Yu will definitely help you win this deal."

  Sun Huai echoed back.

  The chariots and horses left the city and traveled south for a few miles, when there was a sudden noise on the quiet official road.

  Chu Nanzhi opened the curtain and looked over, and saw a group of ragged people running towards her, looking very flustered in a state of distress.

   Not long after, I heard the sound of galloping horseshoes approaching from a distance.

  Chu Nanzhi finally saw the oncoming figures clearly, but saw a sharp arrow go straight into the leg of a strong man behind the refugee.

"what."

The burly man screamed, knelt down and supported the pierced arrow feathers, and shouted hysterically towards the panicked women and children in front: "Run away, leave me alone, go west to Mengzhou to find the queen, she is also poor When the people are born, they will surely save you."

  Unexpectedly, as soon as the strong man finished speaking, another sharp arrow swiftly passed in front of him, and went straight into the abdomen of a girl in front of him, and the girl fell to the ground on the spot.

   This scene shocked Chu Nanzhi, before he could react, he heard a rough scolding voice reaching his ears:

   "Dog, you really don't know what's good and what's wrong. Labor and capital provide you with food and clothing, and take care of your family, yet you still want to escape from Dangyang and sue the imperial court."

  The sound came from far and near, Chu Nanzhi fixed his eyes, and saw an angry young man galloping forward, holding a longbow in his hand, and the arrow was on the string and was about to take off the bow.

   "Keep people under the arrow."

  Chu Nanzhi just shouted, and saw a figure running directly towards the direction of the sharp arrow, and firmly caught the sharp arrow that was shot.

   "What a handsome kung fu."

  Sun Huai was staring at his pockets, and saw that the person receiving the arrow was Mu Jia Erlang, who was silent and silent beside the shopkeeper Mu Da. Only then did he realize that this good brother of his was not only rich in wealth, but also hidden dragons and crouching tigers around him.

   He could hear that the person shooting arrows from his horse was none other than Yan Luo Mu Jialiulang from Dangyang County, and he felt vigilant in his heart.

  Seeing that Chu Nanzhi was going to dismount to stop Mu Liulang, he hurriedly grabbed her and persuaded her: "My dear brother, it's important for us to check on Zhuangzi, so don't delay here."

   "The world is clear, there are people committing crimes and murders at the feet of the emperor, my younger brother, even a business traveler, can't just sit idly by and watch someone lose his life under his nose."

  Not allowing Sun Huai to stop her, Chu Nanzhi immediately jumped out of the carriage, with anger in her eyes.

   These people came here to ask for help, and there must be grievances hidden in their hearts.

  Sun Huaijian couldn't stop him, so he had no choice but to get out of the carriage together.

Mu Liulang on the horse saw Sun Huai's figure, immediately put away his bow and arrow, jumped off the horse, looked at Sang Qi who was receiving the arrow, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be shopkeeper Sun. I don't know why shopkeeper Sun suddenly appeared in the south of the city." ?”

   "I will accompany Master Mu to inspect the fields in the southern suburbs."

   After Sun Huai finished answering the truth, he looked at Chu Nanzhi, whose face was cloudy and uncertain, and introduced: "This is the distinguished guest of the prefect, the shopkeeper Mu from Luyan Port."

   "So that's the case, really disrespectful and disrespectful."

Only then did Mu Liulang examine Chu Nanzhi carefully, and teased with malicious intentions: "It is said that people in the south are beautiful, and it is true when I saw it today. I don't think the shopkeeper Mu Da is like a merchant who is going around. It's those educated scholars."

Chu Nanzhi went forward to check on the woman he shot and the strong man who had injured his leg. Seeing that the woman had already lost her breath and the strong man's leg was bleeding profusely, she quickly took out some golden sore medicine that she carried with her to replace it. He stops the bleeding.

  Seeing the terrified expressions of the refugees, he turned his head to look at the arrogant Mu Liulang, and asked sharply, "Why do you hurt people's lives?"

   This question caused Mu Liulang and the dozen or so guards who followed him to burst into laughter.
