Chapter 125 Wanting Money
I have never heard of any of my friends before I traveled through time taking care of a sick girlfriend personally. At most, they would transfer money or buy her a gift later.
He is different. He takes care of the children himself and doesn't care whether he will be infected.
Yu Chaosheng thought that there was no boyfriend in the world more considerate than him.
Pan Yingying was sleeping on the kang until noon, and was woken up by Yu Chaosheng because it was time for her to take medicine.
Pan Yingying: ...
Thank you for making sure I have three meals a day, regardless of whether I am sleepy or not.
Under Yu Chaosheng's supervision, and because this body had never taken any western medicine, Pan Yingying recovered and was full of energy the next day. She even held a small meeting with everyone.
The meeting was held in the auditorium next to the school grounds.
The gist of it is that the village is extremely short of manpower, and they plan to go to Funing City to bring some people back.
When they heard about Funing City, several old people changed their expressions immediately.
Zhao was the first to raise his hand and vote against, followed by Liu Mingxuan and Old Man Wang.
"No! It's too dangerous! And there are only two of you, how are you going to bring people back?" Zhao clenched the knitting needles in her hand. She was originally knitting a scarf, but now she was in no mood to do that.
Pan Yingying raised her hand to stop her from continuing, "We'll just go over and take a look at the situation. If we can take them, we'll take them. If we can't, forget it. We won't take any risks."
She is not the kind of person who does things without thinking and without considering the consequences.
Zhao was choked by her, moved her mouth, and turned to give Yu Chaosheng a look.
Yu Chaosheng didn't even look at her. He grabbed the half-written meeting minutes by Bisheng and silently covered his face with them and lowered his head.
Zhao glanced around the huge conference room and found that no one could control Pan Yingying, who was becoming more and more daring.
She gritted her teeth and slammed the table, "If you must go, then bring Long San and the others with you!"
Long Si nodded desperately. He had to go with them. He couldn't miss the opportunity to show off in front of the girl and her husband.
He had already thought about how to deploy them, but Pan Yingying flatly refused.
Of course she had to refuse. How could she drive with so many people? She didn't want to be shaken around in the carriage.
"No need, mother. They have to stay in the village. It's not easy to deal with people in Yaocheng. What if they run into us one day and find out what we are doing now..." Pan Yingying didn't finish her words, but looked at Long San and Long Si deeply.
The two men puffed out their chests. They had beaten up spies sent by someone unknown before, and made sure that the situation in the village was not revealed at all.
Zhao was still hesitant, but when she saw Pan Yingying's determined expression, she finally shut up.
The child has grown up and I can’t control him.
It seems I have to send a few more urgent letters to Cheng Hai, hoping that he will come and take care of the young master as soon as possible.
……
……
Pan Yingying and Yu Chaosheng left Taoyuan Village almost empty-handed. They went out early in the morning and headed north.
After walking for several kilometers on the vast yellow land and confirming that there was no one around, they released the off-road vehicle from the space.
The windows of the SUV were closed with only a crack. Pan Yingying was wrapped in a thick black cloak, her long black hair was tied into a man's bun, and she was also wearing men's clothes.
Yu Chaosheng was wearing a white padded jacket with a circle of rabbit fur on the collar. Both of them looked like young men from wealthy families.
Pan Yingying held a drawing board and wrote and drew on paper to record the route. Yu Chaosheng did not drive recklessly like her, but was relatively gentle.
Funing City is more than 300 miles away from Yaocheng. It would take many days to walk there, but if you drive there, it only takes a few hours.
Unfortunately, there was Ningyuan City blocking the way ahead, so they had to stop and change to a carriage when they arrived near Ningyuan City.
Pan Yingying has experimented with it and found that if the carriage is produced in the mall, it can be put into the space, but if it is bought in reality, the space cannot store it, and the horse will only become a corpse if it is stored in.
Beyond Ningyuan is Tongguan, and it won’t take long to reach Funing after leaving Tongguan.
Before lunch, they switched from the SUV to a horse-drawn carriage and arrived at the gate of Ningyuan City.
Perhaps it is because this is the city closest to the Tatars and has experienced countless wars, so the city walls are more dilapidated than Yaocheng.
They were not allowed to enter the city. Yu Chaosheng stuffed some silver coins into their pockets and learned that Ningyuan was under closure.
Perhaps because the money was so generous, the soldier guarding the city reminded them to turn around and go back quickly, but didn't say anything more.
I am already giving you this reminder because of the money.
Yu Chaosheng had no choice but to drive away in the carriage. The two of them had a quick lunch in the car and waited until they were some distance away from Ningyuan City before they drove out of the off-road vehicle.
We ran all the way and finally got out of Tongguan and arrived at the outskirts of Funing before dark.
Unlike Ningyuan, which is under martial law, Funing only requires one person to pay a city entrance fee of ten taels of silver to enter.
The green-roofed cart slowly passed through the city gate and entered the small town originally called "Funing" and now called "Baole".
The scene in the city was somewhat similar to that of Yao City. Most of the people walking on the road were men with deep brows and eyes. Occasionally, you could run into a Dayu merchant with guards. There was no woman to be seen anywhere.
Yu Chaosheng drove a horse-drawn carriage around the city and finally chose the relatively neater "Laifu Inn".
The innkeeper was fiddling with an abacus at the counter with a frown on his face, and the waiter was dozing off in the corner.
Hearing the noise, the waiter immediately stood up and came out to greet them.
"Please come in, two distinguished guests. Are you here for a meal or to stay overnight?" The waiter was very attentive, his eyes sparkling when he looked at the two of them.
Yu Chaosheng casually threw out a tael of reward money and said, "Stay in the hotel."
When they are out, for safety reasons, they cannot take food and water directly. They just need a place to rest and get information.
The waiter was so happy to receive such a high reward that his teeth were showing, and his attitude became even more attentive.
"Sir, we have three specifications of guest rooms here, top-class, bottom-class and large dormitory rooms. The top-class rooms cost two taels of silver per day, the bottom-class rooms cost one tael, and the large dormitory rooms cost two cents." The waiter led the two men to the counter, secretly glancing at their attire out of the corner of his eye.
The cloak is thick, and although the clothes are made of ordinary fine cotton, a small piece of satin can be seen at the cuffs, which shows that he is a wealthy man.
Yu Chaosheng took out a twenty-liang silver note and put it on the counter. "A room of the highest rank, with some hot water."
The shopkeeper nodded promptly, took the banknote, took the sign, and asked the waiter to lead them upstairs.
The room was not big and was fairly clean, but all the furnishings were not new.
After sending away the waiter who delivered the water, Yu Chaosheng took a walk outside while Pan Yingying was washing up, and found that there was no resident on the entire floor.
On second thought, I feel it is understandable. Two taels of silver for a room is simply taking advantage of people.
But the market is like this here, those Tartars are obsessed with money.
