Volume 1, The Wind Rises at the End of Qingping Chapter 3 Cutting Meat and Ascending the Road
"Third brother, you, what do you mean. The small, the small silver is the uncle who asked the little one to save and buy a small house to live in and settle down in the county seat......"
Li Chunlai's heart was already angry.
What a few things, his ass hasn't sat down yet, this Lu San is so blatantly blackmailing him!
But perhaps it was the ability brought to him by that serious illness, his face was full of panic, helpless like a little white-striped chicken, and there was no harm at all.
"Huh."
"Buying a house? Hehe, hehehehe......"
Lu San laughed contemptuously, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world: "You little is better than a cub." Your third master, I have been in the county for more than ten years, and I can't afford to buy a house, and I still live outside the city. You actually want to buy a house as soon as you come up? Don't fuck me talking nonsense with Lao Tzu and take out the silver! Otherwise, Lao Tzu wants you to feel better! ”
"You?!"
Rao is Li Chunlai has always wanted to forbear, but seeing Lu San's dog-like appearance at this time, he really couldn't help it, his delicate little face was flushed, and he whispered: "Lu San, you, you are not afraid that I will tell Lu Da to catch the head, his old man will not pick your skin and draw your tendons!" ”
This is pure temptation.
Because Li Chunlai understands very well that his uncle is just a steward, after all, he is not the owner, even if he has some thin faces, he is afraid that he will not be able to suppress Lu San in front of him, let alone the little Lu Zhu behind Lu San.
But looking at the big black-faced Lu Da headhunter before, he seems to be a person with rules.
And even if this thing is really instructed by Lu Dazhu, it really makes trouble, and his face is not good-looking.
"You!!"
Lu San's complexion changed from time to time, and like a weasel missing half a tooth, he stared at Li Chunlai fiercely, almost like he wanted to peel Li Chunlai's skin and cramp.
But he didn't dare to say anything cruel for a while.
Li Chunlai suddenly had a number in his heart, and his guess was eighty percent right.
Busy lowered his posture again, and said in a low voice: "Third brother, I am a dirt bun from a mountain background, don't you be too embarrassed about me, right?" Otherwise, if we really tear our faces, none of us will be able to please them. In this way, my uncle gave me a total of one or two pieces of silver, and I still have more than 100 dollars, and I will give half of it to the third brother, and you can explain it to the third brother, so don't be too embarrassed about the younger brother, how about it? ”
Lu San's brows furrowed.
looked at the white flowers and silver that Li Chunlai took out, and looked at Li Chunlai's immature but quite tough little face, and did not speak for a while.
"I'm your eighteenth ancestor! @#¥%!! ”
Li Chunlai couldn't stop scolding in his heart.
He had already heard the sentence 'Hades is easy to give, but the little ghost is difficult', how did he think that on the first day he arrived in the city, he was forced to do this.
Seeing that Lu San still couldn't make up his mind, Li Chunlai turned over slightly, put the half of the silver that was distributed to Lu San in his hand, and pushed over a few silver particles, at least three dollars.
said in a low voice: "Third brother, the younger brother is from the mountains, and he doesn't understand anything." This bit of silver has the right to be the younger brother's filial piety to the third brother. In the future, if there is anything, I will bother the third brother to take care of the younger brother. If the younger brother makes money in the future, he will never forget the third brother. ”
Lu San finally wavered at this time, but he was still a little hesitant.
First, this silver is a little small, and he is not very easy to explain to Xiao Lu Zhutou, and secondly, he is afraid that he will take Li Chunlai's silver, Li Chunlai's mouth is not strict, and he will be dealt with again.
In particular, Li Chunlai, this kid doesn't seem to be a good stubble to be slaughtered.
Thanks to the blessing of that serious illness, Li Chunlai quickly understood Lu San's thoughts, and he became more and more honest, harmless to people and animals.
Lu San relaxed a little, "Little Lizi, I can cover you for your third brother, but do you know how to say it?" ”
Li Chunlai couldn't help but settle down in his heart, and said with sincerity: "Third brother, I know that you are also for my good, how can you say more than half a word?" If my surname Li doesn't know what to do and mistakes the hard work of the third brother, then there will be five thunderbolts, ten thousand arrows piercing the heart, and I will die tomorrow morning! ”
At this time, the oath is still convincing, especially Li Chunlai's 'poisonous oath', which is really a bit ruthless.
Lu San couldn't help but relax a little, secretly glanced at the side of the class room, and said in a low voice: "You kid is sensible, and your third brother will not treat you badly." You don't have a place to live, do you? Wait a minute, the third brother will find you a good place. ”
……
A storm that was not too good was quickly swept over by Li Chunlai in the way of 'cutting meat'.
However, although he was cut and his heart hurt to death, Li Chunlai also pinched this Lu San in a subtle way.
Otherwise, this Lu San dares to play tricks again, Li Chunlai directly stabbed the matter to the little Lu catcher, even if he Li Chunlai can't please him, this Lu San can't please even more!
In contrast, people like Lu San, who have already married and dragged their families, obviously have to pay a greater price.
After this episode, Lu San went to make a deal with Xiao Lu Zhutou, and saw that Li Chunlai was really sensible, so he didn't say a word much, and his heart was also down-to-earth, so he immediately found a 'sweet date' for Li Chunlai.
……
The catchers in the county, to put it bluntly, are a group of violent machines, even if the lethality is not large, the composition is also mixed, and the good and bad are uneven, but it is enough to deal with ordinary people.
Among these arresters, such as Lu San and Li Chunlai, who can make up the staff, are there a few, and there are more, or the 'self-done five' miscellaneous servants and 'joint defense members'.
The so-called 'self-done five' is to contribute to the payment of taxes and fees of the imperial court.
For example, the court collects taxes, but you can't pay them, so you come over to work for the court and use this to offset the taxes.
The 'joint defense members' are like soldiers on the side of the army, working with silver, most of them are young and strong, and they are mainly ruthless characters who are brave and ruthless.
Lu San is a kind of editor, usually there is no major event, he will go out of the city and go home to live, after all, there is still a mother-in-law waiting for him to farm.
But for others, whether it is the task requirements or the economic cost, they can only live in the county government or the surrounding areas.
Of course, if you have money, you can go out to rent a house or even buy a house by yourself, but what are the few who have this ability, and the vast majority of people definitely don't have this condition, but live in the official arrangement.
And as long as it is this official arrangement, the water inside is too deep.
Lu San can't even be considered a head catcher, as if he has no rights, but after all, he can fake the tiger, and half an hour's work is to help Li Chunlai get a place to live.
It's in a small barracks not far from the county office.
Although it is still a large shop, the room is tall, the yard is tidy, and there are not only catchers living here, but also some officers and soldiers in the city.
And in order to show Li Chunlai's strength to Lu Sanxia, he also deliberately took Li Chunlai to the official accommodation point more than a mile away from the barracks.
The conditions there made people vomit blood, and several houses merged to say that the pigsty was good.
Li Chunlai was naturally 'grateful' to Lu San's arrangement, and there were constant sycophants along the way, and Lu San soon became more and more fond of Li Chunlai, a sensible boy, and told Li Chun a lot of things in the county.
Li Chunlai also deliberately held him, and from his mouth, he inquired about the structure of the county, including some taboos, secret affairs, and the like.
Because it was raining today, there was nothing to do, Li Chunlai gritted his teeth, and there was some blood, and invited Lu San to eat a meal of haggis, gradually making the structure of the county government transparent.
The basic structure of the county government is similar to what Li Chunlai learned from his dream, the big boss is naturally the county master, the second-in-command is the county prince, and the third-in-command is the main book.
The following are the six directions corresponding to the six departments of the imperial court, that is, officials, households, rituals, soldiers, criminals, and workers.
Because of local reasons, the biggest one in this is the 'punishment' to which Li Chunlai belongs.
According to Lu San, now, there are nearly 500 people in the county alone, and more may be recruited in the next step.
"Third brother, this, why is this? Little brother, I see that the people in our yamen are almost overwhelmed, why do we have to recruit so many people? When the time comes, can we still pay our salaries? ”
In the small haggis stall not far from the county office, Li Chunlai saw that Lu San, who had already drunk more than half a catty of wine, was in a good state, so he asked in a low voice about the more core things.
"Cut."
Lu San had already entered the state and chirped, "Who the hell knows." It's not like I'm being forced by those dog-day bandits. By the way, there are also Lotus Sects over there, they are all a bunch of mongrets. Xiao Lizi, you say, they have a good life, but they are just a few handfuls of tossing and turning. Hey, I heard that there is also a war in Liaodong, and those Jurchen Tartars are now all stated......"
Lu San's alcohol consumption was obviously not very good, and he began to tear it apart, and a lot of information was exported to Li Chunlai.
That is to say, Li Chunlai has a good brain, and he is 'sick' to support, and he faintly knows some outlines, and ordinary people are afraid that they will have been dizzy by Lu San a long time ago.
Jurchen Tartar is 108,000 miles, not to mention for the time being.
But what Lu San said about the Lotus Sect, including the news of the bandits, made Li Chunlai silent.
When he was a child, he had heard that there were many bandits in this reckless mountain where they lived, and when Li Chunlai was very young, the bandits also besieged their village, and some of the girls in the village were taken away by the bandits and disappeared.
However, their village is on the mountain, and at the bottom of the mountain is a large village, where there are several 'big landlords', the courtyard wall is high, and the defense is not weak, which is not something that ordinary bandits can conquer.
And as long as the big village can't be breached, the small village on their mountain is safe.
This is also the biggest guarantee that Li Chunlai can grow up safely to this time.
However, listening to what Lu San said, it seems that there is a group of ruthless bandits around the city, and some time ago, they robbed the eunuch Ding Gonggong of Laiwu to guard a sum of money, which is not a small amount.
Ding Gonggong was furious, it is said that they have heard from the sky, and the Wanli Emperor knows that Ding Gonggong is deploying troops and generals, and he will completely exterminate this bandit before the year.
But the troops are not enough.
Lu San, including Li Chunlai, these Yiyuan catchers, I am afraid that they will also send weapons to fight when the time comes.
This made Li Chunlai a little ruined.
How else can there be such a way to play?
Even though Li Chunlai didn't understand military affairs, he had many pictures in his mind, and he knew how to distinguish some basic common sense.
Just these gangs in Yiyuan County are quick to arrest them, let them fight with those fierce bandits, and exterminate them?
I wouldn't have dreamed of that.
However, faintly, Li Chunlai also had some uncontrollable enthusiasm.
Fighting, but there will be merit.
Isn't that ...... The best way to climb up?
