Chapter 386 Persuasion
Chapter 386 Persuasion
~ Added a chapter to the front ~
The two discussed for a while and finally decided on the specific itinerary.
Lord Fan sent Mr. Wan out to train the troops, and Mr. Wan took Big Eyes and Ye Guang with him.
Wang Dayan was happy that the matter was settled today and he did not disappoint the head of the village.
The two men were driving the ox cart slowly, and following Mr. Wan would be a burden to them.
Mr. Wan was worried that the Miao family would run away, so he asked Dayan and the others to walk slowly while they went ahead.
Wang Dayan seemed to know nothing and said, "My Lords, please go first. Don't delay your work."
Mr. Wan led more than 30 people and traveled quickly, first arriving at Kaoshan Village, where the villagers told them that they were all at the dock.
The people at the dock were sure that Ye Qing was safe and were no longer anxious.
They just sent several teams of soldiers to run back and forth on the street in front of the warehouse.
The people in the warehouse could tell that there was a big commotion outside just by listening to the noise outside.
In the evening, the kitchen in the warehouse prepared food, and Ye Yan invited the three people to dinner.
After finishing his meal, Ye Yan was about to go back to his room to rest. When he was almost at the door, he was blocked by the middle-aged man.
"Brother Ye, please help us pack it up. This batch of goods is perishable and needs to be shipped to the store as soon as possible."
Ye Yan replied with a smile, "Brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that the situation outside is too chaotic. If something happens, I can't afford it."
The middle-aged man was very sensible and quietly stuffed a purse into Ye Yan's hand.
Ye Yan felt his purse and roughly figured out the amount of money inside.
Ye Yan's attitude improved. "I'm not bragging, brother. I'm the only one who can do this at the dock. Don't worry. You can leave before dawn tomorrow at 5 a.m."
The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief. Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem.
"Tian Wang, take the three brothers to rest. Arrange a better room for them. You and Tian Fa will accompany them personally. If they are not comfortable, I will hold you responsible."
Tian Wang agreed and took the three brothers to the guest room where they were staying.
"Three brothers, this is the guest room of our warehouse. Ordinary people are not allowed to stay here. You are the first ones to move in." He helped them spread out their bedding and asked Tian Fa to bring their brothers' bedding over.
The three people were a little surprised. They didn't expect that they would actually live with him.
"Brothers, we don't need you to live with us. We are three grown men and we need someone to keep us company." The middle-aged man declined.
"Our boss has spoken, and we dare not disobey. Let's wash up and have some rest. None of us brothers are the kind of people who snore." Tian Wang was cleaning up by himself.
He placed his and Tian Fa's bedding near the door so that anyone coming in or out would be able to find it.
Besides, there are several brothers guarding outside the door, and they can rush in as soon as there is any movement.
The three people from the Miao family didn't know what to say and felt a little anxious.
While the Tian brothers went out to wash up, the three of them got together and talked.
"Brother, are the piglets in the warehouse okay at night?" The young man with a mole on his face was a little worried.
"It's okay. I just fed you at noon. You won't starve to death if you don't eat." The middle-aged man's eyes were full of indifference.
"As for that, it's still in the warehouse." The hunchbacked young man pursed his lips.
"His mouth is blocked and he's tied up, so he can't do anything." Middle-aged people don't care about their lives. They always lose a few lives on the road.
Ye Qing just happened to be there this time. They noticed someone was following them, so they knocked the person out and sent him far away.
Ye Yan waited until the lights in the room went out before he went to see Ye Qing.
Seeing the bruises on Ye Qing's hands, he felt heartbroken.
"Qingya, you can go live in the government office. There's nothing to do here. Now we just have to wait for the guards to come and arrest them."
Ye Qing disagreed. She wanted to keep them and wait for the people from the guard station to come and accuse them.
Ye Yan was a little anxious, "Qingya, this is not good for your reputation. You are not young anymore, you must not let anyone know that you were captured for a day."
"Can reputation make a living? I must bring these human traffickers to justice." Ye Qing said hatefully.
Ye Yan knew that Ye Qing didn't care about this, but as an elder, he had to think about her. Her originally smooth life couldn't be tarnished because of those bad people.
Ye Yan thought of Ye Qing who valued her family the most, "Qingya, you don't care about your reputation, but Ye Xi and Ye Xiang do. Do you have the heart to let the Liu family look at her with prejudice?"
Ye Qing hesitated. She forgot that this was ancient times, where the emphasis was on sharing weal and woe.
Seeing that Ye Qing was not so persistent, Ye Yan quickly called for someone to secretly send Ye Qing out.
Boss Ye and his two sons were not far from the warehouse. He was worried about his daughters, but was also afraid to go in and alert the enemy.
Seeing Ye Qing coming out, he hurried over to check.
"Qingya, are you feeling unwell anywhere? Doctor Lin is in the yamen. Let's go and let him take a look." Boss Ye took his daughter to the yamen.
Ye Dalang and Ye Erlang touched their noses. They didn't have time to talk to their sister.
Ye Qing looked at the nervous expressions of his father and brothers, regretted seeing the middle-aged man, and followed him.
Boss Ye now looks haggard, and he has aged several years in just one day.
I usually keep my beard neat and tidy, but now I don’t have time to take care of it.
Not to mention the two older brothers, their eyes were red and their mouths were blistered from anxiety.
Boss Ye brought Ye Qing into the yamen, and everyone in the room gathered around.
Everyone was concerned about Ye Qing. Seeing that she was not seriously injured, they gave their place to Doctor Lin and asked him to help take a look.
Doctor Lin likes Ye Qing very much. Since meeting Ye Qing, they have received a lot of help from the Ye family.
Doctor Lin first looked at the big bump on the back of Ye Qing's head. The bump was very swollen and shiny.
The people present felt so distressed that they cursed the Miao family. They said that when the people from the garrison arrived, they would definitely not let them go.
Doctor Lin applied some medicine on her and told her to be careful and not to get wet in the next two days.
He asked her to sit down and took her pulse.
Doctor Lin felt the patient's pulse and then stopped the diagnosis.
"It's nothing, just a little frightened. This is the medicinal wine I brought. Erlang, come here and rub your sister's wrist." Doctor Lin asked Ye Erlang to rub it because he had strong hands and could rub it open.
After everyone had shown concern for Ye Qing, Ye Qing finally had the mind to ask about the situation outside.
The entire dock is still under martial law. Ji Cun and the villagers are guarding the intersection outside, so no news will definitely leak out.
Now we have to control the dock and not let the Miao people notice anything, and wait for the people from the garrison to arrive.
Ye Erlang went to the kitchen to cook for everyone. They were hungry the whole afternoon and without seeing Ye Qing, no one had the appetite to eat.
Ye Qing ate some noodles that Ye Erlang prepared for him, and only then did he feel a little better in his stomach.
Ye Dalang went outside. He wanted to check personally to see if there were any omissions.
After Ye Qing finished her noodles, Ye Erlang pulled her to rub her wrist, and Ye Qing grimaced in pain.
