"Yes, sir." Ah Zhong agreed.
"The wealthy merchant, Qin, has a big ship going to Changyu tomorrow morning. Hurry up and pack your things. Go to the county and board the ship now. Tell the people on the ship that you are my servant. No one will make things difficult for you. They will arrange for you to stay on the ship."
"Yes, sir."
Then, Ah Zhong quickly packed a bag and brought enough money to go to the county overnight.
Mister Zhang was still sitting in front of the desk, stroking his beard.
It was very slow to take a boat. It would take at least a month to reach Changyu. However, his servants did not know how to ride a horse. They could drive a carriage, but they had to ask for directions along the way. Moreover, in this month, the days were short and the nights were long. They had to travel during the day and rest at night. If he really counted the days needed, it was not much faster than a boat.
