Volume 1 Rebirth and Domination of Yanggu County Chapter 48 Survive in the cracks
It took a lot of effort to select thirty people from hundreds of people, and it seemed to be a big flower on weekdays, but when it was serious, it was meticulous, and even sometimes even Li Yan felt "almost", but he was ruthlessly kicked into the alternative, and after three screenings, he finally showed a satisfied smile.
Li Yan deeply felt that a person's success is definitely not unreasonable, even if it is a lowly position.
With Hua Da's persistence and attitude, Li Yan felt in a trance that if he could have a good background and a good education, he would definitely be prosperous in the officialdom.
A man in the corner caught Li Yan's attention, and unlike others, he didn't seem to care about selling for a good price.
The man had a nine-section whip wrapped around his waist, grass roots in his mouth, a "salted fish" posture, his head resting on his arms, lying under a tree, looking up at the sky in distraction, occasionally glancing at Hua Da, as if he was scornful of what was happening in front of him.
"Brother Hua, that person has such a personality, since he doesn't want to make money, why did he come to the market?" Li Yan couldn't suppress his curiosity, and finally asked.
Hua Da said disdainfully: "This person's name is Yang Jin, he can't speak, so he has a quirky personality, don't pay attention to this guy, he is hungry, and he will naturally get up to look for food." A few days ago, he was selected into the house by the dead ghost Zhang Erguan, and within half a day, he was coaxed out, and he didn't think it was a good bird. ”
Li Yan's curiosity is even better, and there is a saying: People who are out of phase must have special abilities.
This aspect is not only the appearance of the appearance, but also the meaning of "appearance" in Buddhism. The so-called appearance is that something is out of the commonality of people's cognition, and then the simple explanation is - alternative.
He walked slowly in front of Yang Jin, lay down, put his hands under his head, and looked at the sky. The abundant sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves, and he half-narrowed his eyes, and his heart was instantly relieved, this is a master.
"You're practicing."
Although Yang Jin couldn't speak, Li Yan could read it from his expression and guessed correctly.
"The concentration of the eyes of a martial arts practitioner is indeed very important, and it is also a skill that you can look directly at the sun without closing your eyes, but this practice method can cause permanent damage to the eyes. There are extremely strong ultraviolet rays in sunlight, and there are a lot of proteins in the eyes, and ultraviolet rays can spoil the proteins. ”
Yang Jin listened carefully, although he couldn't understand it, but this person could say that he was practicing, which was already very remarkable.
Li Yan stood up, dusted off his back, and added: "If you don't want to be blind, don't practice like this in the future, there are many ways to practice your eyes, if you are interested, you can go to me, my name is Li Yan." ”
Li Yan turned around very chic and stuck out his tongue secretly, it was really serious, pretending to be profound nonsense.
There are two consequences of doing this, one is to be right and treat him as a god, and the other is to say the wrong thing and treat him as a fool.
It doesn't matter what kind of it is, anyway, Li Yan is thick-skinned enough, and he thinks that in order to pull students for the martial arts hall back then, he was also standing on the street and "cheating".
It's all about recruiting, and there's not much difference in nature.
Li Yan divided the sixty people he bought into six groups and asked them to go to the mansion in batches, and it was too ostentatious to go together.
He also asked Song San to order a plaque and change the Flower Mansion to the Li Mansion.
He had already decided not to go to Liangshan, because he thought that it was not easy to come all the way to the Song Dynasty, but he was committed to spending his life in the water, so what was the point.
After explaining everything, Li Yan went to Cuiyun Tower alone, calculating the money in his hand along the way, twenty taels for each of the ten women, thirty-five taels for each of the twenty maids, and thirty men were monthly wages, and five taels of silver per person per month.
It's a total of one thousand and fifty taels.
Li Yan regretted it a little, why did he buy those twenty maids......
In the end, it's vanity.
In this way, there is not much money left in his hand, Li Bei'er has money there, but how can he be embarrassed to open his mouth to ask for it.
It seems that we have to fight Wu Yueniang's idea.
As soon as Lai Zhao died, the remaining orphans and widows could not keep their huge family property. Don't talk about guarding the family property, it is not certain whether Wu Yueniang can keep herself, Li Zhixian covets her.
Anyway, if you don't fight, you will be taken away by others, at least in your own hands, and you can't treat the mother and son badly, which is not a merit.
Li Yan comforted himself that he had to find a reasonable reason so that he would not be condemned by his conscience.
There is no way, in such a social environment, if you don't eat people, you will be eaten, Mr. Lu Xun has said this truth a long time ago.
The sun has circled behind him, the temperature has dropped, and the people of Yanggu County have begun to come alive. No matter how hard the days are, it is difficult to resist people's desire for life, and after surviving in the cracks for thousands of years, this nation has long practiced the supreme ninjutsu.
All the darkness, the decay, the injustice, the oppression, as long as it hasn't happened to you, and be happy.
The people are like this, and so is the imperial court, according to Jue'an's memory, Li Yan also knows a little about the general environment.
Prime Minister Cai Jing took the lead in corruption, and the officials below can still be good?
There are rebel armies such as Fangla and Liangshan in the north, strong enemies in Jin and Liao in the north, Dali in the south, and Tubo in the west.
And when today's son Song Huizong is a well-known faint monarch in history, even a scumbag like Li Yan has heard of some of the deeds of this artist emperor.
On the contrary, Li Yan's hometown in his previous life was in the Northeast, that is, in present-day Liaodi. Therefore, he couldn't feel any national righteousness at all, and even had an urge to go back to his hometown to see.
Of course, it's just a matter of thinking, after all, the language barrier makes it impossible to communicate. Moreover, the ethnic minorities in this period were still in a semi-barbaric state, and if they were not civilized, they could not be reasonable, and Confucius did not dare to go, let alone Li Yanhu.
If you don't die, you won't die, Li Yan is self-aware.
Cuiyunlou is still singing and laughing, upstairs and downstairs laughter one after another, the kiln sisters have an inexhaustible, inexhaustible enthusiasm, the guests from the beginning of the Zhumen, they have forgotten all their troubles, everyone is in the real world illusion.
Only Li Yan is different, on the contrary, he is in the real world in a fantasy world.
Really feeling the good here, the bad here, experiencing the high of the temple and the danger of people's hearts, he can clearly see the hideous faces behind the mask, so he is lonely.
Looking for happiness in loneliness, Li Yan ordered a little song and sat across the beaded curtain with the singer.
The silk strings were moved, and the song of the warbler sounded:
The lights of the good night are like beans.
Take advantage of the good thing, tonight there is.
After the wine and the song are dispersed.
The pipa was played lightly, the voice trembled lowly, and the candle was extinguished.
The jade body is so kind.
Pity and pity to leave your mouth.
The rain dispersed and the clouds frowned.
Only sorrowful and dewful, the man knew about it.
Leave me in the dust.
…………
When the strings stopped singing, the singer saluted slightly, Li Yan smiled bitterly, and he didn't understand the meaning of singing at all.
It's terrible to have no culture, and you can't even hear the flavor when you listen to the music. But I still have to pretend, so that no one can see it, and say: "Good song, good singing voice, I don't know who the lyricist is?" ”
The singer said respectfully: "Back to the big official, it is a halal layman, Zhou Bangyan." ”
Zhou Bangyan?
Li Yan became interested and said, "Help me transcribe the words." ”
He thought to himself, he has a talented girl in his family, and he is afraid that he will not be able to learn English...... Phew, Old Chinese.
