Volume III Debaters Chapter 103 Appointments
So if you take a closer look at this era, you will find some discordant things.
In Jiang Qiao's impression, this world should be a world of cultivating immortals, but almost no one in this country has the power to turn mountains and seas.
And Jiang Qiao's dead father was just an ordinary general, and he didn't have too much strength.
Or maybe Jiang Weak hasn't seen it, after all, Jiang Weak has been indulging in sage books since he was a child, and he almost doesn't hear anything about outside his body.
"Childe, you've brought all the people you're looking for. In the manor outside the Jiang family, Uncle Liang stepped forward with more than a dozen strong men with broad shoulders and round waists, and bowed to Jiang Qiao.
The Jiang family has been recruiting guards recently, preparing for Jiang Qiao's upcoming debut, although the Jiang family is now in decline, but how to say that it is also a family, this year, the imperial court is paying more and more taxes, how to say that the Jiang family is also a family, there are still many people who can eat with the mix, and it is not difficult to recruit guards.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Jiang Qiao, the son of my Jiang family. Uncle Liang looked at the dozen or so people behind him and smiled.
"I've seen Jiang Gongzi later. More than a dozen strong men bowed their hands in unison.
"Well, there's no need to be polite. Jiang Wan stood up, stepped forward, and carefully looked at these strong men.
"Childe, these people are all well-known rangers in my Hanoi. Uncle Liang followed Jiang Qiao's side.
The so-called ranger is just a general term, under this title, the three religions and nine streams are all-encompassing, such as Hu Laosan, who was killed by Jiang Qiao when he came to make trouble before, is a self-proclaimed ranger, and in this group, scoundrels account for the majority.
The rest are basically thieves and grass cowards who occupy the mountains as kings, of course, there are also some willful and reckless second generations who have learned a hand of martial arts and are swaying around and fighting unevenly, but this kind of person is generally only a minority.
"Since Uncle Liang said that you are my famous ranger in Hanoi, I think you will have some amazing skills, can you show Jiang Mou?" Jiang Qiao beckoned, and two family members walked up carrying a box.
"Open. Under the puzzled gaze of the strong men, the two guards opened the box and saw that the box was full of five baht coins.
"The Jiang family is recruiting guards, there will inevitably be danger in the future, I am willing to stay, and I also have real skills, this box of money is considered a settlement fee for you, it is a box per person, and my son will not treat his own people badly.
Of course, if your skills can't impress me, then I can only ask back, and Uncle Liang will give each of you 100 yuan, which is counted as hard work. Jiang Wan looked at everyone and said indifferently: "Now, who will come first." ”
"I'm coming!" A man with a muscular body and a red face came up, looked left and right, and in Jiang Qiao's unexpected gaze, he lifted a stone the size of a grinding plate on the ground, held it high above the top, and walked back and forth for more than fifty steps before he put down the bluestone out of breath.
This bluestone is two hundred catties, and those who can lift it up and walk back and forth like this are obviously not ordinary people, but it is far from the strength of Jiang Qiao's imagination to carry the tripod.
"Can you know martial arts?" Jiang is weak
"This ......" the strong man scratched his cheek and said, "Hui Gongzi, I am just a farmer, martial arts...... No. ”
Jiang Wan nodded: "Take the money and stand behind me." ”
"Mr. Xie. Wang Hai was overjoyed when he heard this, and took a few steps forward to stand behind Jiang Qiao with the box in his arms, with a happy expression on his face, and looked at the other dozen or so people who came with him with a greedy face.
On the court side, there has been no news yet, but Han Shun has asked someone to bring a letter, and his own affairs have encountered obstacles, and Tian Yue has made a move.
Of course, Tian Yue did not prevent Jiang Liang from becoming a leader, if this was the case, it would be a complete offense to Han Shun, but instead recommended Jiang Liang to the imperial court, but in Han Shun's opinion, Tian Yue's recommendation was more bastard than directly hindering it.
According to the sum of Jiang Weak and Han Shun at that time, it was an errand that wanted Jiang Weak to find a county order in the Luoyang area, first, it was not far from Hanoi, and secondly, it was easy to make political achievements at the feet of the Son of Heaven, as long as he could do a good job, it would be easy to make political achievements.
The most important thing is that it is easy to enter the emperor's vision, and at a deeper level, it is to prepare for the upcoming Yellow Turban Rebellion.
However, Tian Yue's recommendation was completely different from Jiang Weak and Han Shun's original intention, and he recommended Jiang Weak to serve in the border area, and the reason was also very good.
The ancestors of the Jiang family have been good generals for three generations, guarding the frontier for the emperor's country, and since Jiang Weak has amazing talents, he can only show his strengths when he goes to the border and serve the country better.
This reason, even Han Shun can't refute it, and the Wei family's influence in the court is not weak, and Han Shun can be exempted from exile, and the Wei family has also made a lot of efforts, not to mention that there are in-laws, if you turn your face directly, it will be a huge blow to Han Shun's reputation.
Han Shun values reputation more than his life, so it is impossible for Han Shun to turn his face directly with the Wei family, this is also the norm of the Central Plains family, in-laws come and go, even if there are contradictions, there is room for them.
And although the Jiang family is a family, it is obvious that they have not yet stepped into this circle, which is also the reason why Tian Yue dares to directly attack Jiang Weak.
Although the hammer has not yet been finally dropped, basically, it is already a sure thing that Jiang Wan will be sent to the border to serve, and all Han Shun can do is to strive for more benefits for Jiang Wan.
It seems that it was Wei Qian who made a move!
After Jiang Wan read the letter, he didn't pay much attention to it, compared to Uncle Liang's anger and loss, Jiang Wan saw it very openly.
For him, with the wisdom of a modern person, why care about these, the frontier land, in the eyes of others, it is a barren land, fierce and dangerous, but how is it not an opportunity?
The emperor is far away, and there, although the conditions are worse, he can let go of his hands and feet to do things.
The Wei family manor, which has been transformed into a martial arts arena by Jiang Qiao, is a clearing of the family, and a group of generals who have been selected as guards are seriously practicing the three-style sword technique, and each of them is wearing heavy copper armor.
These bronze armors are now considered obsolete, the defense is insufficient, but the weight is full, if you go to the battlefield, it will definitely not work, and the cost is expensive, but now Jiang Qiao is used for weight-bearing training.
In the center of the huge martial arts arena, a place was encircled by Jiang Weak's people to make a blacksmith shop, and the sound of clanging kept coming, Jiang Weak would be there most of the time these days.
Xin'er, who was dressed in an emerald green dress, appeared on the martial arts arena and immediately attracted everyone's attention, although the little girl was only sixteen years old this year, she was already slim and beautiful.
"Miss Xin'er is here to find Gongzi?" asked Wang Haihai as he stepped forward to Xin'er.
"Well, the official document of the imperial court has come down, and Uncle Liang asked the slave maid to come to the son, and I would like to ask Brother Ding to pass it on. Xin'er said crisply.
"Oh?" Wang Hai and the others' eyes lit up when they heard this, although Jiang Weak was good to them, but who didn't want to go further, if Jiang Weak was just a son of a family, they would be a caretaker in their life.
But if Jiang is weak and enters the official career, then their status will rise, and at that moment Wang Hai nodded fiercely and said: "Miss Xin'er, wait a minute, I will go to report to the son!"
