Quick Travel: After the European Emperor can sign in

Chapter 129 The parents on the road to escape 27

These horses made the patriarch's eyes light up.

"One, two, three, four, five...twenty-four, hiss, Black Tiger Village is so rich and has so many horses."

He counted the horses, grinning almost to the back of his ears.

"Not only that, there's a carriage behind it."

"Oh, yes, yes, there is also a carriage."

The clan leader followed Yuan Xi back excitedly.

"Hey, food, these carts are full of food." The clan leader smiled crookedly, "Give this food out later, the more seriously injured will be affected."

Just kidding, who would think there is too much food?

"What's in these boxes?"

When we came to the last two carriages, there were boxes on them, fixed with hemp ropes.

Yuan Xi asked the patriarch to come closer and opened a box. The white money made the patriarch's eyes dazzle.

He immediately closed the box and was stunned for a few seconds. His hands were shaking and he pointed at the boxes in the car and said, "These...are all these?"

"That's not the case."

"Huh." The clan leader couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or happy.

Yuan Xi gasped, "Some of them are gold."

The patriarch stared at him with a dark face, picked up his crutch and chased Yuan Xi around the carriage.

After a lap, the clan leader also gave up, touching the box with his hand and not knowing what he was thinking.

Yuan Xi came over again, "Clan leader, what are you thinking about?"

"Tell me, how can any bandit go out to rob someone and take out all their property?"

"Maybe this is the characteristic of Black Tiger Village."

The patriarch turned and ignored him.

That night, we rewarded each other according to their merits. Because this time they got more silver, and the clan leader was very proud. He gave out three boxes of silver. He left the rest first and sent someone to look after him. There was still a long way to go. Maybe it was used. When they passed through Fucheng, they just used money to bribe the soldiers guarding the city.

The money owed to Yuan Xi by the village has also been repaid, and the clan leader is now very proud.

The next day, Zhangjiacun's advance was more than twice as fast as before.

There were more than twenty horses in those carriages. Except for Yuan Xi and Qi Hu, who each had one horse, the others were confiscated. Rent to those families in the village who are lagging behind. These families do not have cars or rely on manpower to pull the carts. The rent is free, as long as the horses are taken care of.

Three days later, everyone in Zhangjia Village came to the junction of Xiyuan Mansion and Pingyang Mansion.

The group passed by a stone tablet with Pingyang Mansion written on it.

A few days later, Yuan Xi still drove the donkey cart, his horse also pulled the cart, and he also borrowed Qi Hu's horse-drawn cart. Now Yuanxi's family owns seven cars, so they basically don't have to walk.

"Dad, it's getting hotter and hotter these two days. You go in and rest for a while, and I'll catch the car."

Zhang Yan wiped his sweat and took the reins.

There were more cars and they were more spacious. Now, apart from him and Lao San, the only thing on the donkey cart was the pile of packages he used for fraud.

Yuan Xi sat in the carriage and leaned against his luggage. He was also deeply touched by what Lao San said was getting hotter and hotter. Now as soon as the sun rises, it shines and heats up dutifully. It feels like it will lose if it is not hot enough.

People who have already started to feel hot cannot bear it.

"Third brother, drink more water to avoid heat stroke." Yuan Xi threw the water bag to him.

Zhang Yan opened it and took a sip, "Dad, that cooling pill of yours makes me feel a lot cooler every time I drink it. It has no medicinal smell and is still sweet. Xiu Xiu couldn't stop drinking it and wasted a lot."

"What's the waste of drinking it in your stomach?"

"Dad, you forgot that the rivers we passed two days ago are all dry. If we hadn't met a village yesterday and the clan leader bought a lot of water from that village, we would all be without water now."

Yuan Xi thought to himself, if I hadn't secretly added water to the tank, our family would have been without water.

Since the water shortage began, he has taken over the job of feeding the livestock, using water from his space, so their water seems durable.

Zhang Yan stopped after taking a sip and carefully placed the water bag.

At the end of June, the drought began to slowly take hold, the rivers dried up, and the weather became hotter. During this period, the villages and towns that Zhangjiacun passed by began to sell water, and fetching water casually before became a thing of the past. As time goes by, the price of a bucket of water becomes more and more expensive.

If he hadn't made a fortune before, some people in the village would have died of thirst because they couldn't afford water. Unlike now, the village has the confidence to pay for the unified purchase of water and take care of everyone in the village.

At this time, many villagers have a much better impression of Black Tiger Village.

Suddenly, the team in front stopped.

Zhang Yan looked forward and asked, "Have you rested so early today?"

Then he shouted to the vehicle in front: "Brother, are you going to take a rest?"

"I do not know."

"Then ask the person in front."

Yuan Xi patted the third child on the head and said, "Get out of the car and ask, what's wrong with taking two steps at such a young age?"

Zhang Yan got out of the car aggrievedly, walked a few steps and felt that his father couldn't hear him, so he whispered in his mouth, "I didn't learn this from you."

Yuan Xi narrowed his eyes and stared at Lao San's back, making a mental note for him.

Don't go far away when you say bad things, don't think so, I can hear you.

Zhang Yan suddenly felt a chill on his back and looked back. He didn't see his father. It must have been his misunderstanding. How could it be cool on a hot day?

Yuan Xi, who had already sat in the carriage, was holding a glass in his hand, which contained watermelon juice and a few ice cubes. "Hey, every time I turn on a small stove for myself, I feel a little guilty."

Even though he doesn't eat much in front of others, he is very willing to feed himself extra food in front of others. The second brother always thought that he had a small appetite, but in fact he was just full.

"Gudong."

Yuan Xi took a big sip and said, "It's a pity that the skewers taste too strong. Otherwise, if I had two skewers now, I would have a happy life."

After drinking the watermelon juice, he took out another ice cream stick, and after nibbling on it, he felt very satisfied. It’s a different feeling than taking Qingliang Pills.

One is psychological and the other is physical.

"father."

Zhang Yan was out of breath from running, "Dad, someone in front of us is suffering from heat stroke. The clan leader asked us to find a place to rest nearby. After this period of time, the weather is not so hot before we can go on the road."

He sniffed and said, "Dad, I smell something sweet."

Yuan Xi handed him the water bag, "Drink more water. I see you are sweating and your face is red. The sun outside is too poisonous."

"Thank you dad."

Zhang Yan drank water happily.

Cleverly diverting Lao San's attention, Yuan Xi took out a fragrant pill and handed it to Lao San, "Mosquito repellent, light it up."

Not only can it repel mosquitoes, but it can also mask odors, making it a perfect weapon for him to open a small stove.

Don't ask, just ask because he was repelling mosquitoes just now.

Zhang Yan lit it skillfully and put it into the small copper incense burner. Light smoke rose. Smelling the smell, he completely forgot about his previous questions.

"Dad, you are well prepared. With it, no one in our family will be bitten by mosquitoes."

"It's all trivial, not worth mentioning."

After running the small stove for many times, you will naturally become familiar with it. Which kind of fragrant pill is more effective? It happens to also repel mosquitoes, so it kills two birds with one stone.
