Three hundred and fifty-eight, four sets of snowball fights

"New Year's greetings, Huaye. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Zhou Yanbo leaned on the throne and said, "As usual, you are the first." ”

"The Lord will only call the villain by his name on New Year's Day. Huaye said, "After all, the villain is not a member of Jiazhou Pavilion, so if you can avoid meeting with everyone, try to avoid it." ”

"Huaye, you are really a cunning businessman, how is it? The past year has been good. Zhou Yanbo asked with a smile.

"Thanks to the Lord, especially for a period of time after the Yun Clan's invasion, a lot of materials are needed to recover after the war, it can be said that I have earned a lot of money, and sometimes I can wake up with a smile in my dreams. ”

"Huaye, you can't do this, don't you think you're making war money?"

"Every penny of money I earn in Huaye is hard-earned money obtained by regular regulations, whether it is war money or hard money, I have a clear conscience. Besides, the huge battle is supported by a huge finance, especially the military rations, and the armaments of the Zhou family in the past few years have been voluntarily spent by you. ”

"That's really good, I still need your help in the future, and the resources that the Zhou family doesn't have need your trouble. ”

"Of course, but after the northern capital and the surrounding areas belong to the Zhou family, at least many important materials such as saltpeter and copper ore do not need to be bought with money, and they can save a lot of money for the Zhou family, after all, it is better to personally manage important resources. ”

"That's right. Zhou Yanbo nodded.

"Then, it is estimated that Lord Zhou Fengxue and they should also be ready to come over, so I will avoid it first. Hua Ye said as he pushed a wooden box beside him in front of Zhou Yanbo, "As before, this is my New Year's gift to the lord, please accept it." ”

"Then I'll thank you. Zhou Yanbo said.

Huaye nodded and stood up to salute Zhou Yanbo, and left the Jiazhou House, at the moment when Huaye opened the door of the Jiazhou House, the temperature of the Jiazhou House, which was not very warm, suddenly dropped several degrees, and Zhou Yanbo couldn't help but tremble.

"This year seems to be very cold. Zhou Yanbo took advantage of the moment Huaye opened the door and glanced at the outside of the Jiazhou house, only to see dense snowflakes drifting, and many of them also entered the Jiazhou house.

The location of Jiazhou is also relatively southern, generally in winter, at most there will be a little snow fluttering, even if it is not as cold as the north, but this year seems to be very unique, after the middle of November began to snow heavily, and there is no abating momentum, now it is January, Jiazhou and the surrounding areas are prevalent blizzards, even all the waterways of the Ying River in Jiazhou City have formed a thick layer of ice, people can skate on it, which is also impossible for Jiazhou in the past.

In the past few days, the people from the Jiazhou Department and the Ministry of Industry have been even busier, one to ensure that the streets in Jiazhou City and the surrounding official roads are unobstructed and there is no snow, and the other is to ensure that all water conservancy and city defense in Jiazhou will not be affected by the blizzard.

Just when Zhou Yanbo was thinking about the heavy snow that I am afraid will be rare for decades, the door of Jiazhou House opened again, this time it was Zhou Fengxue and everyone who came to Jiazhou House together, almost all the important people in Jiazhou Pavilion came, Yun Yin and Situ Yide from the Northern Capital, as well as Wei Liang from Hubei and people from Qingqizhuang at night all came to Jiazhou House.

"Hello everyone. Zhou Yanbo waited for everyone to sit down and said, "With such a big snow, everyone can come to Jiazhou to pay New Year's greetings so neatly, it's really hard for everyone, especially Mr. Situ, the snow in the northern capital is probably not smaller than Jiazhou, and it's hard for you to come." ”

"Indeed. Situ Yide nodded and said, "Even the dream of not snowing has begun to snow." ”

"Anyway, this year's snow is big enough. Zhou Zhou touched his hair wet with snow and said, "I'm afraid this is the first time, I heard that many unprepared people have suffered from frostbite, and there are people who have frozen to death, and the household department is too busy." ”

"Hey! Roushang!" Zhou Tang clapped his hands violently and said, "Don't say these bad things for the New Year, it's okay! We haven't paid New Year's greetings to the lord yet, so you just say these ......"

"The Chinese New Year is the New Year, but the people are more important, okay?" Zhou Zhou said without humility, "Isn't the Zhou family like this?"

"Okay, okay, both of you shut up, go out and quarrel first. Zhou Fengxue said, "I'm not afraid to be the main joke." ”

"I'm fine!" Zhou Yanbo said with a loud laugh, "Everyone is as lively as possible, Jiazhou House is not a warm place, don't freeze everyone." ”

Zhou Yanbo is right, Jiazhou House is square and transparent, almost all of them are occupied by paper windows and wooden doors, and the area of the solid wall is very small, and the air conditioner can easily invade every part of Jiazhou House.

"I hereby congratulate the Lord on a happy New Year. Under the leadership of Zhou Fengxue, all the people in Jiazhou House greeted Zhou Yanbo and congratulated him on the new year.

"Well, I would like to congratulate you all on the New Year. Zhou Yanbo said, "This year is good, I need to ask you for more advice." ”

"Be humble. Wei Liang said, "Actually, we should learn more from you." ”

"Don't say that, without everyone's help, I can't support the Zhou family alone. Zhou Yanbo said with a smile.

Just when everyone was chatting with each other, Tang Qinian walked up to Zhou Yanbo's side: "Lord, the envoys from the Han family and Songbin should come." ”

"Hmm. Zhou Yanbo nodded, "The envoys of Hamamatsu are very enthusiastic, probably because we saved them from being the masters, but the Han family and other family forces who came to pay New Year's greetings are very ordinary, and it seems that they are only here to make a superficial form." ”

"They don't have much affection for the Zhou family in their hearts, it's normal to be like this, but it's really strange, the Ministry of Rites didn't receive the messenger from the Xun family, it stands to reason that they should be the first to come. ”

"They've been here a long time ago. Zhou Yanbo replied to Tang Qinian's doubts.

"It's been here for a long time, but the Ministry of Rites doesn't know?"

"It's my cousin Zhou Yanqing and his family, this time they came to Jiazhou for the New Year, and by the way, Xun Wenyou of the Xun family came together, they came in a private capacity, so they didn't go through the Ministry of Rites, and now they live in the Zhou family's mansion. ”

"That's ......," Tang Qinian nodded.

"I said be the master. Su Di walked over and said, "It's not good to let everyone sit in Jiazhou She, it's not very warm here, everyone is enduring this cold air, it must be like a way, right?"

After all, Emperor Su's Luo Yingshe has a lot of independence, so Emperor Su dares to say so.

"It's ...... too" Zhou Yanbo nodded, "I feel a little cold, is it like a way, is it still snowing outside?"

"It's been raining since just now, and the snow is very thick. ”

"Lei Ren?" Zhou Yanbo shouted.

"Lei Ren, the prefect of the Jiazhou Bureau, is here, what are the instructions of the lord?" Lei Ren stepped forward and said, this is not a matter of affairs, so there is no need to be too formal.

"Has the Jiazhou Department started clearing the snow?"

"Not yet, it's a bit early. Lei Ren shook his head.

"That's just right. He and Zhou Yanbo stood up and clapped their hands loudly, and everyone looked at Zhou Yanbo for a while.

"Everyone!" Zhou Yanbo said loudly, "Since it's the New Year, then there must be interesting activities, it just so happens that the snow outside has stopped, and there is still a lot of snow, so how about I suggest everyone group to have a snowball fight?"

"Snowball fight?" whispered to those present.

"Naturally, there is a reward for winning one side, and you can pick one of the things in the Qianhua Library at will. ”

"Pick one at random, really?" It was Situ Zhishui who spoke, when he was in Yunyu, he heard that there were many things preserved in the Qianhua Treasury in Erdao City, Jiazhou, some of which were originally preserved by the Zhou family, and more of them were tributes from the surrounding forces or things that the Zhou family went out to search, and there were many precious treasures.

"That's nature, anyway, it's a waste to put it in the Qianhua Library. ”

"As the master, how do you play?" Zhou Tang was also very tempted.

"Just play a game of capture the flag. Zhou Yanbo said, "The people present are divided into four groups, I don't care how to divide them, each group holds a unique flag, and at the same time to protect their own flags, they must pull out the other party's flag, and the group that has not pulled out the flag in the end wins!"

"There are two kinds of weapons, one is a snowball, and the other is a bamboo knife, which will be sent down when the time comes, after all, it is impossible to only use long-range attacks......"

"The venue is limited to the West Four Mansions in the Eight Painting Mansions, that is, the Four Mansions of Zehuo Thunderland. In particular, it is forbidden to use snowballs in the four provinces, only bamboo knives are allowed, and it is not allowed to place the main station of their own flag in the four provinces. ”

"That's all there are rules, how about it? No problem, right?" Zhou Yanbo asked.

"What about time?" Zhou Fengxue asked.

"This ...... The winner must be decided today, and I guess there is no time limit. ”

"Then will you join the war?" Zhou Tang then asked.

"To be fair, I don't go to war. Zhou Yanbo said, "Okay, everyone will hand me a piece of paper for their camp in a while, remember, there must be a total of four groups, I will go to Xisi Mansion to find a good place to watch first." Before leaving, Zhou Yanbo mentioned that everyone, don't forget to choose a main general.

After a while, the four pieces of paper were handed over to Zhou Yanbo, and Zhou Yanbo looked at it and immediately felt very interesting.

First of all, the first word is Zhou Fengxue's words, which read: General General, Zhou Fengxue, and the number of seven horses, including Zhou Yunpeng, Zhou Haixu, and Zhou Yanxing, a total of nine people.

"This is a typical Zhou family gang, but it's a pity that Zhou Ke is not there. Zhou Yanbo said with a smile in his heart.

The second one is a line of grass, it seems to be the word Situ Yide, and the general is naturally Situ Yide, including the four Situ family, Yun Yi, Yun Yun, Yun Yin, Wang Jian and Lei Ren, also a total of nine people.

"Yun's gang. Zhou Yanbo said, and then looked at the third piece of paper.

The third one is a regular small block, I don't know who wrote it, but it will always be Wei Liang, Zhou Yanbo thinks it should be his word, including Zhou Yizhi, Xiao Yuan, Xiao Sheng, Zhou Yanqing, Qingfeng, Qingyu, Qiu Ning, Adams, Gongye Qingliu, Tang Qinian, a total of eleven people.

"These people are together...... It is definitely not to be underestimated, especially Xiao Sheng and Gongye. Zhou Yanbo knew the horror of these two people.

The last one is the word of Emperor Su, he is the general general, including: impermanence two, Chu Wu, Yin Die, Su Yuer and Zhou Qingjun Seven people.

"The group of people who fell into Yingshe, although the number is the smallest, but in terms of strength, I am afraid that it is high. ”
