Xie Shi walked up to Li Yuening and said, "I have asked Zi Yi to send Luo Wang's child to the place prepared earlier.
Uncle Hua is here too, so there is no problem with safety. Uncle Feng has gone back to the city first.
We agreed to meet at the city gate on the day of departure."
Coming down from the mountain, Li Yuening took the opportunity to release the people from the space. This place was remote and the appearance of a group of people would not attract attention. It was a good opportunity.
"Aren't they acting normal? When Zi Yi entered the space, it was still chilly outside, but now it's summer." Li Yuening asked.
Xie Shi was also puzzled. "That's what's strange. I asked Zi Yi some questions.
He seemed to have forgotten something.
Even Uncle Hua didn’t seem to be unusual.”
Li Yuening confirmed it and said, "Uncle Feng is very thorough. I wanted to use Forget Worry on them before.
Uncle Feng said that forgetfulness can easily cause people to have hallucinations and think that what happened was a dream.
I will never forget completely. For someone like Hua Weimian, it is only a matter of time before I remember him.
So he made this incense and placed it in the house of the net for these days.”
Xie Shi took the incense box and smelled it. "This incense is nothing special."
"It needs an incense primer. Burning this incense alone can help you sleep.
He always adds the introduction when everyone is asleep.
Even Hua Weimian didn't notice,
It can indeed erase some memories.
Now, including Xian Jun, they all have lost their memories.
I had planned to preserve Zi Yi's memories, including him, Bai Yi, and Xian Ge.
I will save myself a lot of trouble in the future. Now Uncle Feng has kindly intervened.
Only Bai Yi and Xian Ge were left, and they didn't know that Zi Yi had lost her memory of the space.
It will be easy to cause friction at that time, remember to go back and warn them both."
Xie Shi nodded, "Uncle Feng did this so that you can trust him."
"Yes, after all, I have been through a lot. He has such a big handle on me.
If I regret it one day, he will be in danger." Li Yuening said with a smile.
"But you don't." Xie Shi knew that Li Yuening was very confident in Feng Youwei.
"The human heart is the most unpredictable. This is good for both him and us." Li Yuening handed the letter written by Feng Youwei to Xie Shi.
It explained what Feng Youwei had done to Zi Yi, Hua Weimian and others, as well as the purpose of his doing so. The words were sincere. He knew he would forget, so he wrote the letter in advance.
After reading it, Xie Shi had a new understanding of this old man. "I usually think he speaks rashly, but I didn't expect him to be so thoughtful."
Li Yuening nodded. "I treat others with sincerity, and I will be treated with sincerity in return. He is an elder who deserves respect."
"Well, there are only a few people who are truly mean and ungrateful." Xie Shi handed the letter back to Li Yuening. "I just came back and saw the mage leading people up the mountain to dig a new well. Today we have finished the old man's work, and we are also preparing to set off."
Li Yuening took out a box of gold leaves from the space and handed it to Xie Shi. These were taken from Madam Jin Feng's storehouse. "For the mage's fee, do you think they want silver or food?
If they want grain, they can get it from the grain stores in the city; if they want money, they can give it to them.”
Xie Shi, "Now, except for Xie's grain store, all other grain stores have increased their prices.
The waiter at the grain store only slept for three hours a day, and the queue at the door never stopped from morning till night.
If they were not afraid of arousing public anger, other grain traders would have united to isolate us."
Li Yuening, "We'll have Yu Cheng transport another batch of food over tonight, and you can use your private seal to get a few people from other shops to help.
In half a month at most, everyone will be on their way.
By then, there will be fewer people lining up, and new grain will be on the market soon.
The price increase is also temporary. The grain merchants want to make some money.
A rabbit’s tail can’t grow long.”
"I will escort them personally. Also, we need to increase the number of night patrols. I'm afraid those people will do something bad." Xie Shi was a little worried. Someone had already passed a message to him through Yu Cheng, but he had ignored it.
The business world is like a battlefield, and avoiding it all the time is not the solution.
Before the Baili family takes over, nothing can go wrong with the shop.
"Okay, bring some clothes with you." After thinking for a while, Li Yuening said, "I'll find something for the fourth and fifth brothers to do. None of the people in the Xie family should be idle."
We can't let Xie Shi handle everything alone.
Xie Shi chuckled, "Okay, you have the final say."
Li Yuening glanced at him and said, "Who am I doing this for? You have no conscience."
"Yes, yes, it's my fault. May I ask what I can do for you, ma'am?"
Li Yuening, "Go find two baskets, get two baskets of rock and soil, and ask them to get the salt for me in the next few days."
Xie Shi, "Isn't it a bit hasty?"
"If we don't push them, how can we know where their potential lies?" Li Yuening arranged this so that they all have something to do.
It is one thing to hurry on your journey, but you cannot stop doing what you need to do.
Suddenly, Li Yuening remembered something, "Xie Shi, the old man passed away suddenly, what should we do with his concubines?
Are they going to go north with us and provide for them in their old age?"
Xie Shi really hadn't thought about this, "I'll ask later."
"Don't ask. These matters are not our responsibility. I think Uncle Xie will handle it." Li Yuening thought that Xie An was more nervous about this matter than them. He would not be willing to support his father's woman.
Xie Shi, "Then I'll go find a basket."
Li Yuening nodded.
This was the house of Zhuangzi's steward. The house was spacious. Xie Shi saw bamboo baskets placed together with other miscellaneous items.
He picked out the two biggest ones and gave them to Li Yuening.
The two went to the rock mountain in the space. The mountain goats were still in the old place. When they saw them coming, they jumped away.
Li Yuening controlled the rock and soil to be put into the basket remotely, "Once it's empty, let's go around the mountain and look for iron ore.
When the time comes, we will need farm tools and weapons, so the amount of iron required will be huge. We have our own mines so we can be sure of that.”
Xie Shi heard this and said, "Where the stream water turns red, there must be iron ore. We can look for it along the waterfall."
When the two baskets were full, Li Yuening clapped her hands, "Great, it's easier to find now that we have a direction and a target."
Looking at the lively mountain goats, Li Yuening licked her lips and felt a little greedy.
Xie Shi, "Are you hungry?"
"kind of."
Xie Shi, "There are fresh bitter greens and coriander in the vegetable garden. Stewed lamb and roasted lamb legs are both good."
Li Yuening thought that she should eat something before going out, and she should be able to catch up in time. She pointed to a half-grown fat mountain goat and said, "I want that one. Half of it should be stewed and the other half roasted. I also want some goat offal soup with lots of coriander."
As soon as Li Yuening finished speaking, Xie Shi shot an ice arrow through the mountain goat's neck, instantly freezing the blood that was about to flow out.
Xie Shi walked over, picked up the mountain goat and shook it towards Li Yuening, saying with a sly smile, "Madam, this is all you ask, and I must satisfy you."
Li Yuening waved her hand and put the two full baskets back to Shiyueju. "Okay, let's have a race to see who gets to the pool first. 1,3, , whoever lags behind will wash the dishes."
As soon as the three words fell, Li Yuening rushed out far away.
Xie Shi shook his head, and Yuening became shy again.
Xie Shi was carrying a load of several dozen kilograms and walked slowly behind Li Yuening.
The two men landed on the edge of the pond one after the other.
