Chapter 116 Yaocheng
The two chivalrous men returned to the inn room and faced Batian, who was as angry as a pig.

Pan Yingying felt guilty for a moment, but quickly took out beef from the space to give Fat Tiger a snack.

"Tiger, mother went out to earn food for you, otherwise how could you eat meat?"

She touched Batian's head and spoke earnestly.

Yu Chaosheng had just changed into his pajamas behind the screen and rolled his eyes when he heard this. Most of Batian’s food and drink were paid for from his account, okay?
After getting on the bed, Pan Yingying took out the account book and pen from the space, and Yu Chaosheng took them and started to keep accounts.

"1500 taels of gold and 8000 taels of silver."

"3000 taels of silver."

Pan Yingying was counting in the space, and Yu Chaosheng was responsible for recording.

"A total of 375 pieces of gold, silver and jewelry."

"The total amount of antiques sold was 3630 taels."

After recording, he turned over to the other side and began to write down the things that the two of them shared separately.

Yu Chaosheng did not take gold, silver or jewelry. He took 800 taels of gold and 4000 taels of silver, and half of the money from selling antiques.

The reason he gave was that he had no use for those things and gave them all to Pan Yingying.

Pan Yingying didn't be polite to him. The boy finally found his conscience and she couldn't refuse his kindness.

She rummaged through the jewels for a long time and found a crystal clear white jade landscape plaque. She planned to ask Yu Chuner to make a necklace and string it together for Yu Chaosheng to hang around his waist.

This boy is vain, he must like it.

Nothing happened that night. The next day, I heard that something happened in the city. I didn’t know what it was exactly, but I knew that there was a lot of panic for a while.

Pan Yingying and Yu Chaosheng looked at each other, probably because of what happened in the brothel last night, but that was not their concern.

It was obvious that they couldn't stay here for long, so Yu Chaosheng notified us to set off in the afternoon. So everyone simply stopped going out to sell goods. They wandered around the city for the whole morning to buy supplies, and left the city after lunch.

Three days later, the Taoyuan Village group arrived in Jinzhou, and the previous fugitives also arrived in Jinping County.

The county town was under martial law and no one was allowed to enter, so everyone had to rush to Jinzhou without stopping.

Fortunately, Yu Chaosheng and his men were slow and were finally caught up by the convicts when they were about to reach Lihua County in Jinzhou.

After hearing them say they wanted to join them, Pan Yingying and Yu Chaosheng both shouted “Huh?”

Yu Chaosheng scratched his head, "What are you thinking? Why would you come..." to join him?

Old Master Qi cupped his hands and said, "Village Chief, I have a good relationship with the young man from the Liu family. Since we can't go back to Jiangnan, we thought we could just go to Yaocheng together. Our Qi family wants to join Taoyuan Village."

Wu Ze, the head of the Wu family, also bowed. He had never had much dealings with Liu Mingxuan. The Wu family was in the cloth business, and the Liu family ran a restaurant. The two families had nothing in common.

But in order to stay, he still shamelessly said, "I have a good relationship with the head of the Liu family."

Several other companies present:

This guy is so shameless!

When it was their turn, everyone said, "I have a good relationship with Patriarch Liu."

Yu Chaosheng: …

He simply asked Long Jiu to call Liu Mingxuan over.

Since he is Liu Mingxuan's friend, he should be allowed to handle it himself.

Everyone got along well on the way, and Yu Chaosheng and Pan Yingying had no objection to bringing these people along.

No one knew how Liu Mingxuan talked to them, but they stayed anyway, and Liu Mingxuan even paid Pan Yingying a "village entrance fee" of 1000 taels of silver.

Seeing those people's grateful expressions, Pan Yingying was surprised. Her uncle's move was amazing! Since they came here lightly and lacked food, clothing, shelter and transportation, Pan Yingying waved her hand and gave away half of her own food.

She is not a black-hearted person. After taking so much money, she should at least return some supplies to the other party.

The family of two in the big iron pot was given five pieces of fine cotton cloth and coarse cotton cloth, twenty pounds of bacon, and five pounds of "Buddha Salt" and "Fairy Sugar".

The Taoyuan Village team grew again. This time when they entered the city, three inns were not enough, so they booked another one.

Everyone washed up happily, and the former convicts also came with silver and took some goods.

They are indeed businessmen, as they took only expensive goods, including sets of glass tea sets, not to mention skin care products.

Pan Yingying suddenly received a large sum of money.

Next, the focus of her and Yu Chaosheng was to exchange all the silver bills in their hands for gold and silver.

They exchanged 2000 taels of silver notes at the money shop, and then went to a shop selling antiques, calligraphy and paintings to spend some money. After that, they got some medicine at the clinic and returned to the inn to rest.

They stayed in Lihua County for three days and left early on the fourth day.

However, just after they walked fifty miles, a group of masked men came to kill them.

There are about 30 people, all of them are top masters.

The entire Taoyuan Village rushed forward, 300 against 30, and a random punch could kill the master, not to mention that the poor students had a lot of stationery, and the weapons of the Taoyuan Villagers were also very sophisticated.

Of these 30 people, only more than 20 were slightly injured.

Since everyone was involved, Yu Chaosheng divided all the silver obtained from the corpses equally, with each person getting more than two taels.

The children were so happy, it was as if they had found the two taels of silver for free.

When they arrived at the next county, everyone was making money or buying supplies. There was a refugee family named Zhao who wanted to stay and open a shop. Pan Yingying left some goods for them and also sent a letter to the caravan that had left before, saying that this would also be a stronghold in the future.

This went on until mid-August, when everyone finally arrived at the legendary "City of Sin".

Yaocheng belongs to Yongzhou, and further ahead is Tongguan, and outside Tongguan is the territory of the Tartars.

Eighteen years ago, the "Battle of Tongguan" was won tragically, and ended with the Daewoo Dynasty ceding six cities outside Tongguan.

King Huai, who won the "Battle of Tongguan", was in the limelight for a while, even overshadowing the god of war General Chen Qianzhi.

Seeing that they were still seventy or eighty miles away from Yaocheng, Yu Chaosheng asked everyone to change into the tattered clothes that he had insisted not to throw away, and smeared mud on their faces and bodies.

Except for basic supplies, everything else was stored by Pan Yingying into the space.

In the past few months, Pan Yingying has gradually doubled the area of ​​the space, so that even after putting down the supplies of the villagers, there is still a large space left.

The men pushed the carts, revealing their big white teeth.

The women, carrying their bags, laughed and joked with each other, "I didn't expect that we would have to pretend to be refugees even though we are almost here."

Each person only had a small amount of money on them, and every household had only enough food to last for ten days or so, but they were not worried at all.

In order to look more like the real thing, everyone was in no hurry to travel, and only ate half full at each meal, which resulted in them losing several pounds by starving themselves.

Seven days later, everyone walked to Yaocheng on foot.

With so many refugees arriving at once, Yaocheng Lord Xiao Shanton felt overwhelmed.

The land here is vast and sparsely populated, and no crops can be grown. The people in the city can’t even get enough to eat, so how can they help these people?

He simply waved his hand, designated an empty village for them, and let them move there to fend for themselves.
