C53 See the village again
Although the Yongfeng Ridge was not far from the vast mountains, there were many huge trees and good lumber inside.
However, no one would dare to venture into the vast mountains just because they were chopping down wood. There were many dangers in the mountains, and if they made any big movements, it would alarm a large group of wild beasts and spirit beasts.
Therefore, the majority of the territory's charcoal was shipped from far away through merchants, so the price naturally wasn't low.
Calming himself down, Zhao Fengnian looked in the direction he came from and instructed: "Alright, let's go back. Then, we'll pay a visit to the black iron Mine's workshop. I still have some things I need to instruct you about."
After Tao An and Wang Meng received the order, they turned around and headed towards the direction they came from quickly.
The return journey was usually much faster than the return journey. Very quickly, they arrived at the village in front of the black iron mine.
It was almost noon now, and smoke was rising from every household.
The three of them arrived at the village entrance with great familiarity. When the children playing outside saw the carriage enter, they ran home chattering to inform the adults.
The village chief also walked out. Seeing Wang Meng and Tao An driving the carriage, he knew that the person inside the carriage was Young lord!
He quickly walked forward, bowed and asked: "Are you here, Master Young lord?"
After Zhao Fengnian heard Li Tiezhu's voice, he also walked out of the carriage and supported Li Tiezhu up with a smile. At the same time, he said: "Old Mr. Li, I'm only here to take a look, I still have some matters to discuss with Elder Li."
After hearing what Zhao Fengnian had to say, Li Tiezhu immediately opened his mouth: What do you want to say? Young lord, if you have any orders, just say it! "
"Come, if Young lord doesn't mind, let's go into the small hut and talk slowly ?"
After saying that, Li Tiezhu led the three of them to a room in the center of the village.
Zhao Fengnian naturally followed behind, because he had a lot of things to say and it would be hard to say outside. Furthermore, Li Tiezhu was an ordinary person, so he shouldn't stay frozen in this cold wind.
Everyone who entered the house saw that Li Tiezhu's entire family was waiting for him, upon seeing him, they immediately bowed and greeted him.
Zhao Fengnian enthusiastically greeted everyone. There were a lot of people in this large family, Li Tiezhu had three sons, seven grandchildren, all living in this big house, which could be considered as having three generations of children.
After greeting the three people, the Li Family people went back to their work. Li Tiezhu brought Zhao Fengnian to a small study room.
There were not many books in the study room. There was only a table and a few chairs, but it was very quiet.
Inside was a charcoal stove that had just been ignited. It seemed like they were here to take a look at him and had prepared it temporarily. They had really put a lot of effort into this.
Heating up in an ordinary civilian's home was not usually done with charcoal because the price of the charcoal was too high in the eyes of the commoners. This was also the home of the village head.
"Come, Young lord, please take a seat. If you have any instructions, please speak. As long as it is something that I can accomplish, I will do my best to complete it."
Li Tiezhu led everyone to their seats and said respectfully.
"Oh, good, good. Old mister Li, your family is also a civilian and military that followed my great-grandfather to explore the wasteland. If there is anything, I will naturally find you. However ?"
Zhao Fengnian sat in his seat, he thought for a moment, then spoke out, he paused for a moment and continued: "However, this matter is too secret, and it involves too many people ?."
Li Tiezhu understood the meaning behind Zhao Fengnian's words, and thought that the Young lord had something secret to tell him, so he immediately knelt down and said: "I swear to you, I will be loyal to my territory, and will not reveal any secrets of the Young lord, if you break this oath, if you die, the future will not end well."
