Chapter 66: Chu Lin

Previous Chapter

No matter how much money there is, there will always be a time when it is spent, and a family of several people is managed by a woman to run a small business outside Chang'an City, plus the adoptive father is out at the time, there is always valuable spoils to bring back, and the life can finally go on, but with the reduction of large-scale wars in the country as a whole, and the death of the adoptive father, the situation of the whole family will decline rapidly, and he can only inherit his father's duties when he is less than twelve years old, and the family will be exempted from taxes first.

There are still his father's comrades-in-arms in the army to help, obviously Zhou Hailong and Shi Fohu are two of them, and they will not let him starve to death if they have a bite to eat.

But Li Zhi, he is a layman in training, and he is handed over to Li Qingzhi and the rest of the gang leaders to manage, he only focuses on logistics support, Gao Jing has an advantage, that is, there are officials who can shout elders everywhere he goes, especially when he goes to the Taifu Temple and Taichang Temple, which manage the military quarters of the forbidden army, as well as the Weiwei Department, there are a lot of uncles, and it is not difficult to come to some military supplies.

In fact, whether it is printing or winemaking, or toothbrush manufacturing, it is not a labor-intensive industry, Li Zhi began to raise poultry, so that whether it is the old and young women and children in the Zhuangzi, or these weak family members in the army, there is an additional place to work, and Li Zhi gives a lot of wages.

Today's Li Zhuangzi has gathered a lot of military dependents of the forbidden army, leaving early and returning late, and has entered an intensive production mode. In this regard, Cao said that Jin was the gatekeeper, and Li Zhi was very relieved.

And it just so happened that Chu Lin's mother and sister-in-law were now helping out in Zhuangzi, but because his mother had been studying for a few days, he was arranged to help in the printing house, so that her mother's salary alone exceeded the little ration that the family had earned before.

These days, his mother has been begging Lao Cao to see if she can transfer their family's household registration to Xuejiazhuang or Lijiazhuang, so that they don't have to get up early and run outside the city in the dark.

This happened not only in Chu Lin's family, at least dozens of other households have this kind of idea, Lao Cao has already sent someone to inform him, just wait for Li Zhi to come up with an idea when he goes back.

Li Zhi patted Chu Lin's head, although he looked only a year older than this kid, whether it was his size or mental age, he didn't seem to have any sense of disobedience in this action.

Shi Fohu also raised half of his buttocks hypocritically, and swept the wine jug on the table aside with a smile, so as not to hinder the eyes of Gongzi (age relationship, most of the soldiers in the camp are called Li Zhigongzi).

It is expressly forbidden to drink alcohol in the camp, and the main thing is that Xiaolinzi, like the son, is not yet an adult, let alone drink, everyone knows that this son looks kind on weekdays, but it is definitely not a good stubble, just say that the 'black horn' big bow in his hand can make the invincible Liu Chongren clamp his tail and no longer dare to grin.

There is also the arrow on the grass slope next to Ganye Temple that Gao Wei boasted about, all of which shows that Li Zhi's temper is not very good, what kind of good temper can he shoot with an arrow if he doesn't agree with him, and it doesn't hurt or itch when he gets a kick on his buttocks, Li Zhi didn't pursue it again, just signaled Chu Lin to finish eating.

Chu Lin immediately sat down, this is also the rule of the army set by Li Zhi, eat without saying a word! When you eat, you can concentrate on eating, and when you are full, you can concentrate on doing things.

A sea bowl of rice entered the belly, Chu Lin burped with satisfaction, and when he saw that Li Zhi and the three of them were looking at him, he hurriedly stood up again: "I'm full!" ”

Li Zhi smiled and nodded, although life is not so tight anymore, but this kid always fills his belly at the first opportunity, Li Zhi knows that he is hungry and afraid, and he can't change it for a while, so he can only change it slowly.

Pushing over a cup of hot water, Li Zhicai said: "Sit down, this is not in the army, drink the water, and then carefully explain what you see!" ”

"Gongzi Xie!"

After speaking, he drank the water in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and grinned at Li Zhi, Li Zhi liked this kid's character, and he was born with a free and easy energy.

It turned out that this kid played the role of a little beggar alone, and recently he had been wandering around the Tavern of the Goguryeo people, and sometimes he could sneak in the door to observe, although he would inevitably be punched and kicked twice, but it would never arouse the vigilance of those Goguryeo people.

On the contrary, after a long time, he gradually became accustomed to his existence, and even a Goguryeo dancing girl would secretly stuff him with a nest head or eat leftover chicken legs......

In the front, because the Goguryeo people used some of their dialects to talk, Chu Lin didn't understand very well, only knowing that there was definitely a big Goguryeo man living upstairs, because there was a special person who was responsible for going upstairs to deliver wine and food every day.

He kept an eye on it, and took the opportunity to sneak through the door, and saw clearly that it was the amount of one person, and the meal was very exquisite, until yesterday, a guy who seemed to be a Han official arrived, and went upstairs directly.

I don't know what we talked about, but when the chief official left, he finally saw the face of the person upstairs, a young man with a thin face, and he was sure that the two of them were speaking Chang'an official dialect!

Li Zhi thought about it carefully, together with the summary of the information that others had tracked recently, he reached out and dipped his tea and drew four points on the table, all of which had already identified the strongholds of the Goguryeo people, and their total number was almost a hundred, but there were only about thirty people stationed in the tavern, plus the noble man of Goguryeo and the guards led by him, there would be no more than fifty people, and the rest of the people were distributed among the other three strongholds, one was still in Xishi, and the remaining two were in Da'anfang, close to Anhuamen, and one in Xinchangfang, Close to Yanxing Gate!

These four things are currently the most suspicious place for these Goguryeo people to gather, and that Da'anfang is a famous place for the three-religion and nine-stream hodgepodge in Chang'an City, and at the same time, foreign businessmen generally have two choices if they buy property in Chang'an City, one is the West Market, and the other is Da'anfang, that is to say, a large part of the people who live there are foreigners!

At the same time, these people are also Tang people, because they have all met the conditions to become Tang people, and they have been registered by the Chang'an County government, and even the tax payment is the same as that of Tang people.

But Datang's open-door policy allows them to retain many of their traditional customs, such as religion, such as sacrifice!

That is to say, if they kill these people according to the order, they will inevitably enter the Da'an Fang with a complex personnel structure in Dao, and the permanent population of the square is initially estimated to be about 3,000 people.

This is something that has to be considered, and according to Li Zhi's guess, the reason why the important figure of Goguryeo stayed in Xishi was probably to meet the Tang official, and now that he has seen it, in such a short time, it is very likely that he will leave Chang'an or return to Da'anfang, and at that time, it will be even more difficult for them to act.

These days, the trapping camp has selected nearly a hundred elite personnel and scattered into several predetermined locations to standby, but the number is still too small.

At this time, Li Qingzhi and Gao Jing came in, and Li Zhi looked at Gao Jing: "Do it tonight, I need you to go to Wei Wei to borrow a hundred crossbows and three thousand crossbow arrows, and I want it in the afternoon!" ”
