Chapter 203 Shame on You

Qin Zhao and others were right. Lv Songli was worried that they would make a big mistake and turn the car over.

First of all, these medicinal materials were collected. They could not have a good chance to sell them all the way forward like before. This time they must be transported back to Chang'an City to cash in.

In fact, the investment period of three or four months is already very short. But in the early stage of wealth accumulation, Lv Songli still felt that it was too slow.

Secondly, it was the overall environmental factor.

Dali was divided into four counties, Liaoxi, Liaodong, Xuantu, and Lelang, as Pingzhou, and its seat was in Xiangping. This is Pingzhou, and a large area in the north borders with foreign tribes, which is not as good as Yanzhou and Jizhou. Even Youzhou, which is backed by Jizhou and Bingzhou, is slightly better than it.

In ancient times when transportation and communication were inconvenient, if the emperor wanted to manage a remote place well, he would usually send a loyal leader with a strong sense of loyalty and not very capable.

Before exile, when Lv Songli was arranging his backhand, he checked the governors of several remote cities and counties in the southeast, northwest, and found that it was indeed the case. Zheng Xun, the governor of Liaodong County, was like this.

After thinking about it, Lv Songli understood the emperor's intention of using people like this.

Loyalty to the emperor is the so-called correct thinking. Correct thinking can ensure that he will not easily rebel or make trouble. And lack of ability ensures that even if he rebels or makes trouble, he will not be able to become a climate and threaten the imperial power.

The emperor is assured to use such people to govern the local area.

As the saying goes, if virtue is not in line with the position, there will be disasters. If talent is not up to the task, it will be burdened. Because of this, Zheng Xun has a strong control over the areas under his jurisdiction. Whenever there is a large force movement, they will be alert and take direct action.

These considerations of Lv Songli are more troublesome to explain, so she didn't mention them.

Lv Songli didn't know their confusion. She was discussing dinner with Qin's mother. They had already started cooking. Now that Qin Yan and his party have arrived, they need to change the menu for tonight.

Now that the two teams have joined together, the children have also gathered together. It can be seen that although Qin Jia and the others are thin, they are very thin, and their eyes are bright and their spirits are very good.

Qin Yun, Qin Che, Qin Xiao, Qin Bin and Qin Dan are not as good, with sallow complexions and thin bodies. Especially Qin Xiao, the second child of Qin Yan's family, has received less care along the way and has lost a lot of weight. If you touch his chest, you can still feel the protruding ribs.

Qin's mother just looked at the other five thin children and felt very distressed. Moreover, after experiencing the changes, each of them is still very well behaved.

Looking at the wild animals piled together, Qin's mother was thinking about what to make.

Qin's mother heard from her daughter-in-law that fish is very nutritious, and eating more fish is good for the body and brain development of children. So she asked her daughter-in-law to make a decision, and made a fish fillet porridge for the children for the first meal of the reunion. She was sick before, and her daughter-in-law asked someone to make it, and she thought it was very good.

Lu Songli thought it was feasible. The children had weak stomachs and had been deprived of oil and water for a period of time. If they suddenly had a lot of oil and meat, they would not be able to bear it.

The youngest daughter-in-law also said that her idea was good, so Qin's mother called her youngest son.

A moment later, Qin Sheng took people to the river to fish.

Nie Yunniang was used to the situation that her mother-in-law liked to discuss things with the sixth brother's wife. Shen Erniang and the two daughters-in-law saw it for the first time, but they had heard Zhou Da mention Lu Songli's intelligence before. Seeing such a situation, they would only think that what Zhou Da said before was true.

For Qin's second sister-in-law Cai and Qin's fourth sister-in-law Su, they felt bad to see that their children were thinner than other nephews and nieces.

Especially Su, her father-in-law was gone, and her husband Qin Ming was gone. She took her two sons with her. Although she had the help of her second uncle along the way, she was still panicked. Now it's good, she has caught up with the main force, and her heart is finally relieved. Her mother and the prince will not ignore them.

At the riverside, Qin Sheng and his companions caught more than 100 kilograms of fish soon after they went into the water.

Ma Jin, Zhou Da and others, who had never seen such a situation, were so surprised. They did not expect that such a shallow river could have so many fish? And were these fish so easy to catch?

Hu Guangcong and others who had followed the large group all the way saw that they were eager to try, and held back their laughter and asked them to try.

"Let's try it." Ma Jin, Zhou Da and others rolled up their sleeves to take the fishing net and led the people to the river.

Zhou Da, Ma Jin and others took more than a dozen brothers to the river to fish. The rest of the people, except for the patrol, all helped spontaneously.

First clean the fish, then cut out the belly part of the fish, marinate it with rice wine, ginger and salt, and use it to make fish fillet porridge. Because the belly of the fish is not processed, it is given to the children to eat without worrying about fish bones stuck in the throat.

Then separate the fish head and the fish body. The fish head is first used to boil the soup. They also put some chicken bones in it and some ginseng whiskers in it.

The meat on the fish back was deboned, then chopped into paste and kneaded into fish balls.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner.

Several large pots were burning at the same time, making soup, boiling fish balls, making rice porridge, steaming buns...

The aroma of food drifted in the garrison, and the children sat on the side and watched eagerly. The atmosphere in the garrison was as warm as a festival.

Qin Yan was stunned, "Brother, so this is how you got here all the way?" No wonder the nephews and nieces of the eldest and third brothers are so good-looking.

In contrast, is he a little useless? Second mother, wife, fourth brother's wife and children, they really suffered a lot following him.

Qin Heng comforted him, "We don't eat like this often."

Before Qin Yan could feel a little comforted, he heard his third brother say quietly, "Before entering Liaoxi County, we basically ate like this, but we changed the taste occasionally. Sometimes we could eat wild goose soup, sometimes venison, sometimes roe deer..."

Qin Yan: Is the food so good?

Qin Heng looked at Qin Zhao helplessly. Can't he save some face for the second brother?

Qin Zhao turned his head. Xiaoliu had just slapped his face. After being serious, he knocked him down with three moves. Doesn't he want face? Now the second brother is embarrassed with him, and he has a companion.

"Second brother, you will know later."

When they processed more than 100 kilograms of fish, Zhou Dama Jin and others didn't catch many fish in the net.

The two were puzzled.

Qin Yan even came to see it specially, but he was also puzzled. The same net, the same technology, different results, what's going on?

All the participants had sad faces. They were all fishing and hunting. If the results of their fishing and hunting were the same as those of Captain Hu, would their team be so short of money?

Zhou Da was good at passing the buck, "It must be that they were too ruthless just now and took away all the fish in this section of the river."

Qin Yan's heart moved when he heard this. He was the second child of the Qin family, and he had some impression of Xiaoliu's good luck since he was a child.

Just then, the sound of a carriage running on the road came from far to near. Qin Yan turned and looked at the source of the sound. "Someone is coming towards us again. It sounds like there are quite a few people and horses."

"Second Young Master, don't be nervous. Our people are back."

It was indeed Wu Ren and his team who came back.

They were very happy to see that the team of the Second Young Master of the North had joined theirs, but when they were asked about the results of today's acquisition, they shook their heads.

"Not much harvest today." Shame on them.

Five carriages were dispatched, but they only bought a little bit of goods. Wu Ren was a little depressed.

Two days ago, they collected medicinal materials smoothly, and he thought it was very simple.

Lu Songli came over leisurely.

"Sixth Young Master's Madam--" Wu Ren, who was shocked, called out pitifully. Sixth Young Master's Madam had predicted it right. She had told them to bring fewer carriages and more people.

Qin Sheng glanced at him, moved his long legs slightly, and quietly inserted himself between the two of them.

He really felt that there were too many enemies, and he needed to guard against both the children and the adults...

Lu Songli patted his arm, hinting that he should stop making trouble, as she had something to say.

Qin Sheng obediently stood beside her.
