Chapter 697: Mr. Zhang Has No Money to Build Roads

The Imperial Guards did not send out scouts, and there were few people.

When they hurried to the village, they saw smoke rising from the village. It was noon.

"It is close to Jingzhao Prefecture, and the villagers have benefited." Zhang Jiuling guessed why the village had three meals.

Whenever there was a move in Lijia Village, Jingzhao Prefecture and the surrounding areas followed suit.

At the entrance of the village, everyone saw many chickens, with ropes of different lengths and colors tied to their legs.

They were clucking and digging the soil with their claws. They didn't bite it twice, and I didn't know whether they were digging insects or eating sand.

The manager went to find someone, and the village chief came out with a group of people.

"It's really the Imperial Guards. Come on, get some grass and feed the horses. Each family should bring out the good food."

The village chief saw the Imperial Guards and gave orders excitedly.

The people who followed them ran back to get things.

The group entered the village and fed the horses first.

The villagers had almost finished eating. It was hot, and they were eating millet rice.

Some villagers had pickles at home today, and some fried eggs with onions and brought them over.

"Mr. Zhang, the village is small, there is nothing good to eat, just make do with one bite." The village chief brought over a plate of pickled eggplants and said politely.

"Thank you, Tong Cunzheng." Zhang Jiuling knew that the other party would not ask for money today. The village chief's surname was Tong, and his given name was Fu.

He also knew that the other party did not give things because he had no official position, but because of the Yulin Flying Cavalry.

The Yulin Flying Cavalry had a good reputation, and the people farther away knew about it.

The manager was on the other side, discussing buying horses with someone. There were three horses in the village. If he gave more money, the other party could buy another horse.

The chief officer Fang Guangchang came over: "Mr. Zhang, we are staying in the village today. The brothers rushed all the way last night, and now we are not in the best condition."

"Listen to General Fang's arrangements." Zhang Jiuling raised the other party's status and said he had no objection.

The Yulin Flying Cavalry should stay in good condition in case they encounter danger.

Fifteen of the Yulin Flying Cavalry ate fast, and the watery rice was easier to eat. They ate three bowls in a few bites.

They found a cool place in the morning, covered their faces and went to sleep.

The other five ate slowly, and started to guard the post after eating.

At night, these five people ate fast and went to sleep after eating.

The others were divided into three shifts, standing guard in turn.

When the team had breakfast in the morning and was on the road again, there was indeed an extra horse.

The horse that had been pulling the cart alone seemed very happy and snorted several times.

"Muramasa, there is a paper bag pressed by a stone at the entrance of the village ancestral hall." A villager found the situation when passing by the ancestral hall.

He didn't dare to touch that thing. How could the ancestral hall be treated lightly? He found Muramasa Tong Fei.

Muramasa led people over, and indeed there was a fist-sized stone pressing a yellow paper bag.

He first went to the ancestral hall to burn incense, then came out to move the stone away, picked up the paper bag, opened it, and found twenty 100-coin exchange coupons inside.

There was also a letter written in pencil.

"Thank you for the hospitality from the old and young of Tongjia Village, but the Yulin Flying Cavalry will not take advantage of the people, so leave two thousand yuan." The village official read out.

"Good soldiers, our Tang Dynasty is strong." The elder of the village said loudly, full of energy.

Time passed, and it was the last day of July.

With the protection of the Yulin Flying Cavalry, Zhang Jiuling's team did not need to calculate the time to rest and rush.

As long as the horses could rest, the people in the team did not matter.

The team became larger, with more than 40 people, all of whom were rushing. When they saw the Yulin Flying Cavalry, they sped up and trotted.

The Yulin Flying Cavalry had no choice but to let them ride their horses, and those who could not ride horses had to be taught.

They all wanted to go further south, including people from the same state as Zhang Jiuling.

Those who took short distances on the road met more, followed the Yulin Flying Cavalry, and said goodbye when they arrived at the place.

"We have arrived at Dayuling again. This road is too difficult to travel. We can only take a long detour, otherwise the car cannot pass."

Zhang Jiuling looked at Dayuling in front of him, with a worried look in his eyes.

If you want to take a shortcut, there is only this one, and everyone has to carry their things on their backs.

"If there is a road that connects the villages on both sides, and you can walk quickly, there will be less danger, otherwise someone will rob or kill people."

Zhang Jiuling's worry became more serious, and he was as distressed as the people in the team.

"Mr. Zhang, you are an official in the court, you can tell His Majesty that if you take the lead, we are willing to build a good road with you."

The same people from Qujiang County, Shaozhou came to Zhang Jiuling and said.

Zhang Jiuling shook his head: "If it is only for us to pass, it is very difficult to build a road. We need to find a reason, this... Guangzhou Maritime Customs?"

He knew that if he wrote a letter saying that the road near his home was not easy to walk, the court would not care.

Your road is not easy to walk, is it easy for others?

If it is related to business, and the goods need to be transported, the court may agree.

The people have long wanted to build a road, but no one leads, and they don't know how to build it.

The captain of the Yulin Flying Cavalry came over. He didn't care whether the road was good or not. There were twenty Yulin Flying Cavalry. What robbery? Who robbed whom?

"Does Mr. Zhang want to build this road?" Fang Guangchang asked, looking at Dayuling.

"This road is difficult to travel, you can go back, escort all the way, Jiuling thanks you." Zhang Jiuling saluted with his fists.

"We are not in a hurry to go back, Mr. Zhang wants to build a road?" Fang Guangchang asked again, and at the same time, his hair stood up, scared.

He never mentioned the money all the way, and when he came out, Li Dongzhu said that the money was for Zhang Jiuling to build a road.

As a result, today, to Dayuling, is it really necessary to build a road? Li Dongzhu...

"Not only should a road be built here, but a pass should also be built." Zhang Jiuling admitted that he had an idea.

"Since that's the case, why don't you take the people to build the road? The local autumn harvest is coming, and the people will have some free time after harvesting the grain."

Fang Guangchang gave an idea, let's build it, do you think it should be built or not?

"Without the order of the court, the people should not be moved." Zhang Jiuling shook his head slightly.

"Is it possible if there is money?" Fang Guangchang asked.

"Of course it's possible if there is money." Zhang Jiuling glanced at Fang Guangchang, thinking that if there is money, it can be built directly, but there is no money.

"Large-denomination exchange coupons, can they be recognized by the locals?" Fang Guangchang still had questions.

On the way, they used small-denomination exchange coupons, and there was no problem. This place is already southern enough, and the people know and accept it.

"Recognize, we are willing to accept it, as long as it is an exchange coupon issued by Lijiazhuangzi in Bashui, we will take it." There was a businessman following the team.

Obviously, he had been to Chang'an and knew about large-denomination exchange coupons.

"That's great, please take a look, Mr. Zhang." Fang Guangchang winked at the two brothers.

The two of them each brought a bag over, opened it, and directly poured the bundles of exchange coupons on the ground.

Following the people on the road, he looked hard, money, all money.

Zhang Jiuling picked up a pile and saw the familiar pattern and the number of ten strings on it.

"This... how much money is this?" Zhang Jiuling's hands trembled, and he figured it out. ＵＵReading ｗww． ukanshu.net

Why did the Yulin Flying Cavalry follow him all the way, and when he got here, he asked himself if he wanted to build a road.

"Mr. Zhang, 20,000 strings, enough to build a road?" Fang Guangchang glanced at the people around him.

Everyone stepped back consciously. 20,000 strings, money that could not be earned in several lifetimes.

"The money paid by Guanglu Doctor Li Yi?" Zhang Jiuling thought of the person behind him.

"Your Majesty knows that Mr. Zhang will go home and organize people to work while writing a letter."

Fang Guangchang did not answer directly, emphasizing Your Majesty.

Li Dongzhu said that all good things are Your Majesty's, remember it.

"Your Majesty's kindness is like a mountain and a father." Zhang Jiuling understood and shouted.

More than 40 people followed suit and shouted: "Your Majesty's kindness is as great as a mountain and as great as a father."
