Chapter 31: The Wool of Lao Xu

In Yangjiawu, the villagers gradually adapted to the situation of being neighbors with the broom star. Some people didn't dare to get close to Jia Ping'an, but some people were eager to knock down Jia Ping'an and try to see if they could get lucky. It's just that he was afraid of Xu Jingzong's rogue methods, so he didn't dare to start.

Xu Jingzong's methods are very simple and rude: Whoever knocks down Jia Ping'an, what did you do, just abolish it, let you lose your means of making a living, and see if you can still get lucky.

Seven people were arrested one after another, and to this day, none of them have been lucky, so Jia Ping'an dared to go out for a walk.

When those women saw him, most of their eyes lit up, wondering if their daughters were playing.

But they were all a little jealous of Jia Ping'an's broom star life, and they actually wiped out both their grandfather and maternal grandfather, and their own parents were no exception, leaving only a cousin Yang Deli.

If you marry your daughter to him, will you destroy your own family with your backhand?

Thinking of this possibility, those who were tempted retreated.

"Peace." Yang Zhongshun came to look for Jia Ping'an, and said with a solemn face: "The envoy said last time that he would let us make bamboo, do you think it is possible?" ”

"It's okay." Jia Ping'an already had a case in his heart, but it was just to train Lao Xu that he was tossed back and forth.

"In this matter, I believe you, not the envoy." Yang Zhongshun's words made several villagers on the side nod their heads one after another, with a look of course.

Lao Xu came to Yangjiawu too often, making the villagers feel that Jia Ping'an had been involved.

As far as trust is concerned, the villagers naturally trust Jia Ping'an, so they came to ask each other when they were worried.

At present, the situation in the whole Huazhou is not optimistic, when it comes to making bamboo, the people say that Lao Xu is a dog with a mouse and is nosy. I feel that the state forces the people to make bamboo utensils, most of them are to trick people.

So this matter was strongly rejected by the people, and Lao Xu's reputation also went down a little, and he was heartbroken about it.

Jia Ping'an knew the benefits of this, he didn't think about explaining anything to the village in private, but when he heard what Yang Deli said that day and knew what Jia's mother expected of him, he was inevitably moved.

Jia's mother hopes that she can have a title, and this wish cannot be realized at present, but it can make the reputation of the Jia family in the village better.

Thinking of this, Jia Ping'an said: "If you can trust so, you can do it now." ”

Yang Zhongshun went to consult with a few village elders, and finally came to find Jia Ping'an.

"Do what?"

"Does Mura Zheng know how many people drink tea in Chang'an City?" Jia Ping'an said calmly: "Drinking tea is an elegant thing, but the teacup is hot, if there is a bamboo tea coaster, there is still cyan on it, and the fragrance of bamboo is mixed with the fragrance of tea...... Who won't buy it? ”

Yang Zhongshun was moved, "But they have the means to fade the green, so that the tea coaster can be used for a longer time, and there will be no insects." ”

Jia Ping'an sighed, "Bamboo tea coasters are not expensive, and those people are not bad for this money." A certain question, you also drink tea, are you willing to buy a tea coaster? ”

Yang Zhongshun shook his head, "I only buy it when I am full, and I am reluctant to pay for it!" ”

"That's it." Jia Ping'an is very patient in order to make the old Jia family famous, "People who are willing to buy tea coasters, he doesn't care about buying two or three a year." In this way, our tea coasters are constantly being bought......"

Yang Zhongshun looked longing, and a young man a few years older than Jia Ping'an on the side suddenly said: "What can be used for a few years can only be used for half a year now, isn't this coaxing people?" ”

"Do you have room to talk too much?" Yang Zhongshun went up with fists and kicks, and the young man was beaten. When his father heard this, he scolded, "Beat hard!" ”

"Ping'an, this is for the benefit of the whole village, but you said that you became a profiteer, should you be beaten?"

"Yes!"

"Do you dare next time?"

"Don't dare!"

Seeing that a good young man was suppressed, Jia Ping'an felt the need to redeem his pure heart, so he said: "In business, if you want to deal with bamboo, the cost will be higher, which is quite unfavorable for sales. And small things like tea coasters, no matter how delicate you get, and they are soaked in tea for a while, then the tea coasters can't be seen. Therefore, it is so troublesome, but it is useless at all. Wasted in vain! ”

The young man arched his hand with a look of reverence, "I see, as soon as Ping An said so-and-so, he understood, that is, the village is not reasonable, and he will do it when he comes up......"

Yang Zhongshun was so angry that he still wanted to do it.

Ahem!

Jia Ping'an felt that the admirer was trouble, and said: "If you want to do this, you must hurry up." ”

Yang Jiawu immediately got busy, and when they made the first tea coaster, the tragic Xu Jingzong returned.

"The old man sold all the family property, got 20,000 yuan, and told the people of Huazhou that everything he could do was done, even if it was a loss, it was the old man's money that was lost, and after the loss of 20,000 yuan, what should I do, before that, who didn't listen to the greeting, fight!"

It boiled.

The state government is boiling.

Yu Wen looked at him dumbfounded, thinking that Lao Xu was crazy.

The cliff is crazy!

Liao Quan is still an admirer, "If you are still unsatisfied, it is a wolf's heart and dog's lungs!" ”

Xu Jingzong remembered the scene of the last time he opened up the wasteland, and said: "Gather the people. ”

Later, the front of the state government was surrounded by people, and Xu Jingzong asked Yu Wen to shout.

Yu Wen stood in front, somehow in his heart, something like that...... Diaphragm.

He is a member of the Guanlong aristocratic circle, and this time he came to Huazhou with a mission, and the target is Lao Xu and the broom star. So far, he feels that he has succeeded in concealing it, and he is about to break into the 'enemy' and become Lao Xu's henchman.

It's a test!

Yu Wen took a deep breath and shouted: "Xu Yuanjun pawned all the family property for the sake of the people of Huazhou, and got 20,000 yuan......

Xu Jingzong stood on the side and suddenly said, "The voice is too small. ”

This is his glorious moment, he wanted to say it to the people in person, but Liao Quan desperately stopped him, saying that the person concerned was going to say it in person, and he was a little embarrassed, so he still let him say it.

You have done a good deed, and you have to tell everyone in person that this thing is actually true, but Lao Xu is a thorn in history! Be reserved.

Xu Jingzong thought about it, but felt that Yu Wen had been moving closer to him frequently recently, and he had the hope of becoming the second licking dog, so he threw something for him to do, which could be regarded as a test.

But Yu Wen's voice was a little small, and Lao Xu was really dissatisfied.

Yu Wen raised his voice, "Xu Yuanjun ...... for the people of Huazhou"

Xu Jingzong shook his head, and Liao Quan reminded: "Louder." ”

There are more and more people, and the voice is not loud enough, how can everyone know about Xu Jingzong's feat?

"Xu Zhijun for the sake of ......"

"Louder."

"Xu Zhijun is in order to ...... In order to ......"

It's broken!

Yu Wen's broken voice was particularly harsh, and Xu Jingzong sighed, "Liao Quan, you go." ”

Liao Quan went up, and Yu Wen came down, and it was difficult to hide his disappointment.

"For the sake of the people of Huazhou, Xu Yuanjun pawned all his family property, exchanged 20,000 yuan, and bought all the bamboo ......"

The people couldn't believe their ears.

No one has ever thought so much about the people, let alone ruined their homes for the people. And Lao Xu came to Huazhou in the name of a traitor, but he brought benefits to everyone one after another.

An old man came over tremblingly, and Xu Jingzong hurried over.

The old man said with tears in his eyes: "If you make your family broken for the people, you can wait for us and think that the king is a traitor......

Xu Jingzong touched his beard uncomfortably.

"But you can find out Liang Bo's corruption, and fight for wasteland with the gentry for us, and this time he will sacrifice his family for us...... Old man ......"

The old man wanted to kneel down with tears in his eyes, but Xu Jingzong hurriedly grabbed him, "There is no need for this!" It doesn't have to be this way! ”

He remembered the touching of the people after he cried the last time he opened up the wasteland, so he once again resorted to the trick of fantasy, and the tears slid down.

"It made you cry."

The people were moved, so that they were reluctant to leave, and finally Xu Jingzong cried again, so he sent them away.

The old man has scored again!

Xu Jingzong was quite satisfied, turned around and said to Yu Wen: "You have to practice your voice, so that from tomorrow onwards, you will get up early every day and shout outside that you are loyal to Your Majesty, and you will shout ten times." ”

In an instant, Yu Wen wanted to die.

But Xu Jingzong was looking at him, so he could only say humbly: "I'm afraid that the lower official is ......"

"How? Your Majesty is so merciful, don't you want to? Xu Jingzong turned his face blank, and Yu Wen hurriedly smiled: "Where, the lower officials will start shouting tomorrow." ”

So when Jia Ping'an came to the state government the next morning, he saw Yu Wen standing outside the gate shouting.

"A certain is loyal to His Majesty, and there is no second heart!"

Jia Ping'an heard the taste of shame, that is to say, Yu Wen was not willing to shout these words. So he came closer.

Being stared at and shouting slogans, Yu Wen's face turned red, and he became more and more ashamed, so he glared at Jia Ping'an. But Jia Ping'an didn't realize it, and stared at him with a smile.

"A certain is loyal to His Majesty......"

Except for Lao Xu, no one wants to be loyal to Li Zhi in public, and he is very ashamed.

Jia Ping'an listened to it nine times, and if it wasn't for something, he really wanted to continue listening.

I went in and found Xu Jingzong, and the old thief was drinking tea comfortably.

"Do you know what happened yesterday?" Jia Ping'an turned his face as soon as he came.

"What's the bad?" Xu Jingzong is still immersed in success.

Originally, the people were full of confidence, but Jun was in tears, Yang Jiawu said that Jun was afraid that he had no confidence, and he was worried that the 20,000 would be lost. It's listless now. ”

Xu Jingzong was taken aback, "This ...... Yesterday, the old man just wanted to move the people, is this so? ”

"It's the same thing as fighting." Jia Ping'an felt that the heavy task of training Lao Xu was very difficult, "Before fighting, we must give them confidence, not make everyone panic." ”

"Are the people listless?" Xu Jingzong felt that he had failed too much.

"No, most of them are spirited." Jia Ping'an said with a strange expression.

"Why?" Xu Jingzong asked puzzled.

"Everyone wants to get a piece of the pie from those 20,000 yuan, and do more to get more, isn't this crazy."

This is picking wool, and most of the people are scrambling to pick up Lao Xu's hair.

"So what to do?" Xu Jingzong, who became a fat sheep, was very depressed and felt a little cold.

"Envoy, you can do it too."

"Do what?"

"Make bamboo."

"But the old man won't."

"Just find a craftsman."

Huazhou is a big lump around Huashan today, and it has always been an important place in Guanzhong. Regarding the bamboo ware in Huazhou, this is not a jazz fabrication, that place in later generations, that is, today, is the famous hometown of bamboo in China, and the book only advances this time point a little.
