Chapter 472: Poor Family Takako (26)
A poor son 26
Seeing Li Fang leave, Hu Dacai whispered: "Second Master, if you have anything to do, just give me instructions."
The Fourth Master whispered: "I asked our brothers to quietly release the news inside and outside the city, saying that we would fill in the gap. No matter how many, we would accept it."
"It's also outside the city..." Hu asked in a low voice.
"The same is true for the victims who have not left outside the city. However, we cannot enter the city for the time being. Every day, we will send some logistics supplies to the outside city. The elderly, weak, women and children can enter the city, but they have to be postponed for a few days." The Fourth Master thought for a long time before saying, "If we use these victims outside, they will be the first line of defense to guard the capital. If we don't, then another day, he will be the striker of the attack on the capital. Between one positive and one negative, you can calculate the account. Which one do you choose to lose some food and lose your life?"
Of course Hu Da can calculate this account, but there is still a problem, "The grain in the capital, now..."
"It's almost two days." The Fourth Master said, then got up, "You go and do your business."
As he said that, he took Li Jian and turned home.
He didn't bother to talk to Yin Lao Er who was sitting by the door waiting for him while blinking, and went straight to the house.
"You go out with me." The Fourth Master said, and then Lin Yutong changed her official uniform.
Lin Yutong nodded, "I thought about it all morning. Now, what's important is not only food, but also weapons. The Ministry of War is in charge of the arms..."
"You and I have thought of it. The problem lies here." The Fourth Master stretched out his arm and Lin Yutong stretched his clothes flat, and then said, "Not only weapons, but also horses. If we don't take action, we will be cheaper. If we guess correctly, these noble people should go straight to Tongzhou. If we board the ship from Tongzhou, no one can sit. Who can still bring horses? Let's not, the guys in Xishan Camp dare to take it alone."
Lin Yutong nodded, "Go to visit the Minister of War?"
The Fourth Master sighed, "Go and take a look first. Maybe you can't even enter the door?"
Lin Yutong also found clothes and started to dress up, "I'll go to the back house. I heard that this wife of Shangshu was born in a general. Her family was a loyal and brave. I thought it would be a bit bloody. I'll try it." She was not idle at home, so she called the little beggar on the street to help her inquire about the news from each family.
The Fourth Master turned his head and saw that Lin Yutong was naked, so he chose a plain silver hairpin to insert it, "It's not too rude."
Lin Yutong looked in the mirror and felt it was appropriate, so she turned around and saw the Fourth Master looking at her behind her, "When did you get your clothes? Why don't you remember?"
This dress looks like a skirt, but in fact, for the convenience of riding a horse, I chose a skirt.
Before I could do it, I found the space and it was already there. Of course, it was prepared by Tianlong.
Lin Yutong said perfunctorily: "Let's go! Who knows when to prepare?" She said with a little guilty tone.
The Fourth Master glanced at Lin Yutong with a smile, "I've been busy lately. After a while, let's be good..." As he said that, he hummed twice.
Lin Yutong pushed him, "Go away! It's too late for a while, it's more rude."
Jin Shi said she went to find Lin Yutong, but she found that her daughter was tidying up like the wife of the official family, and she was ready to go out.
"Mom?" Lin Yutong said as she walked: "What does Chen Hong mean to buy if you lack at home? You don't have to ask me to know everything."
Jin looked at his daughter and son-in-law who was walking away, "Is it different to be a wife of the official family? I don't even dare to recognize this as my daughter."
She also wanted to say that there is no more food outside now, and she is no longer able to buy food.
The two of them arrived outside the mansion and did not even pass a message in it. They said that Lord Shangshu had not come back yet, but Mrs. Shangshu replied that at noon the day after tomorrow, she would invite her to come to the mansion for tea.
Lin Yutong was stunned and couldn't help looking inside. If she had a decisive attitude, there was no need to meet her after tomorrow. What does this mean when she made an appointment with her after tomorrow?
The Fourth Master's expression changed, "Hurry! At noon the day after tomorrow, the Emperor's Veteran would have boarded the ship in Tongzhou. At the latest, it would be the latest to leave the capital tomorrow night."
"Master, otherwise, let's separate." Lin Yutong said: "The two commanders may have some ideas in their hearts, and they will just collect people and weapons. I'll go."
"No!" The Fourth Master shook his head firmly, "You are not as important as nothing..."
"Even Yin Sanlang is successful, I am not even as good as him?" Lin Yutong looked up at the Fourth Master.
The Fourth Master wandered for a long time and said, "It's time to deal with those two commanders tonight. Besides, if you want to promise someone you are, they may not believe it."
That's true.
Lin Yutong then smiled and turned over to the horse, "Then let's go together. The battle will be decided."
He gave the little beggar a steamed bun and successfully found the home of the Treasurer of the Ministry of War. This guy is not very official, but he is in charge of the most important work, the key to the warehouse. As long as this key is of course not open to the armory, but he knows the most about the armory.
The small treasurer lives in a small courtyard south of the city.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard the crying and scolding of the woman inside: "...You are a coward, Lord Liu, don't you just go with me. You are just a scheming person, wanting money but not being able to do it. If this thief enters the city, where can we live? If everyone leaves, we are left... No, no matter what, you have to give this thing to the Minister of the Secretariat. Even if you are a servant for others, you will at least ask us to follow us..."
The Fourth Master was about to push the door when it opened. A short man with a pale face and a small beard came out from the inside. He was wearing an official uniform and couldn't hold it up at all. In addition, he was hunched with his chest and hunched back, and his clothes seemed to be stolen. He looked ashamed.
When the man saw the Fourth Master, he was stunned for a moment, then raised his index finger and snorted "shush".
He waved his hand gently, not asking the two of them to speak. Then he looked inside through the crack of the door, and then gently brought the door. Then he took the package in his hand and went to the Fourth Master and Lin Yutong, "Is it General Yin? The lower official really knows you. He is like Hu Da, and calls you the Fourth Master."
Lin Yutong pointed to a tea shop at the entrance of the alley and said, "Speak inside."
"Miao Situku." After the Fourth Master sat down, he said to Miao Zhongyi, "I have seen you too. If I remember correctly, we should have met in the Admiral's Office. As for your friendship with Hu Da, I think it is just a divine friendship."
Lin Yutong suddenly realized that the boy deliberately said Hu Da to win the trust of the Fourth Master as soon as possible. In fact, he just heard that Hu Da was trusted by the Fourth Master.
This person is not very official, but he is very smart.
Miao Zhongyi smiled embarrassedly, "The Fourth Master is so memoryful. Yes, on the first day of the Fourth Master's office, the Ministry of War always had to go to support the scene. Here is one of them. But I didn't expect that such a small person could still catch your eye. It was really surprising." He was huddled in the corner at that time.
The Fourth Master knocked on the table, "You are also a smart person. You can say whatever you say, just say it clearly," he said, "
Miao Zhongyi looked around and hesitated when he saw Lin Yutong again.
The Fourth Master frowned and said, "This is a lady! Seeing the lady is the same as seeing the master."
Lin Yutong glanced around and threw a silver bean to the boss, "The store owner will not have to entertain others today."
Miao Zhongyi then saw the politeness to Lin Yutong, "I was rude just now." As he said that, he did not dare to look at Lin Yutong again but said to the Fourth Master, "Before, I thought the Fourth Master was a naughty man, and he dared to rush up at this time..."
Lin Yutong thought to herself, no wonder this guy couldn't get promoted to his official position. I won't say that he looks naughty, the key is that he can't speak.
Few bosses are willing to use such people.
The Fourth Master looked motionless, listening to what Miao Zhongyi said.
"But now, I know that the Fourth Master is wise. In this world, those with money and powerful have their own way of retreat. If you don't have these two things, you have to find a way to occupy another one and have soldiers in your hands. As long as you use troops, you can always find a way to survive. Therefore, I am a person without power and money, and others will not like it. I can only count on the Fourth Master who is interested in it. I can give me a chance to serve. In the future, the Fourth Master can protect my wife and children's safety."
The frank words that were conquered by the Fourth Master's domineering aura were all more real truths.
"Then what value do you think you have?" The Fourth Master looked up.
Miao Zhongyi took off the key on his neck, "I know what the Fourth Master wants. Now that I have given this to the Fourth Master, I can't go back to my little family."
"Take your family to the North of the City to find Hu Da's placement." The Fourth Master said, then took the key over, "Who else has the key?"
"There are three in total." Miao Zhongyi frowned, "In addition to this one, there is one in the hands of Lord Shangshu and one in the hands of King Zhao." After saying that, he added, "The King Zhao supervised the Ministry of War."
Lin Yutong's heart skipped a beat. The Shangshu Mansion had already hit a nail, so King Zhao couldn't even think about it.
The Fourth Master nodded, "Go." He beat Miao Zhongyi.
Lin Yutong gave a gold ingot as usual.
"Go back first." The Fourth Master played with the key and said, "At least, without this key, they would not think about opening the warehouse door. As long as they keep things, there is always a way to open it." The Fourth Master didn't feel that it could stump him for mechanical matters.
But Lin Yutong was calculating time in her heart, so time became tight.
After returning home, the Fourth Master took his people out. Lin Yutong then changed into Yexing clothes...
