Chapter 1 Children of the Mo Family

Next Chapter

Merton is an aspiring young man in the twentieth century, although his family is poor, but he is a young man, and he is from three generations of poor middle peasants, commonly known as poor dicks.

But this did not stop Merton from pursuing a higher spirit, and he decided to start from scratch and work hard to get a fortune of five million.

And today was the moment when he decided to make or break it, Merton had been in front of a bank for a long time, a place he had stepped on several times, and the surroundings were safe and there was very little foot traffic.

Merton lowered the brim of his hat, felt the contents of his pocket, and walked into a store next to the bank.

"Boss! Make a bet on a two-color ball. ”

Merton pulled out two one-dollar coins and lined them up in front of the shopkeeper.

"Good luck with tonight's draw."

The boss skillfully printed out a ticket and handed it to Merton with a smile.

As night fell, it was already 9:20 in the blink of an eye.

Merton refreshed his phone over and over again, waiting for the lottery results, and five million of his family fortune were fighting here.

Every time the lottery is drawn, it is the most painful time for Merton, how cruel it is to see himself lose five million, no, five million and two dollars.

But for the sake of his dreams, he had to endure these pains.

"Jingle bell!"

A pop-up window of the lottery app appears, and the winning information is released.

"No"

In an instant, a cry of sorrow came from the rental house,

"My five million and two dollars!"

At the same time, the land of Shenzhou rose up with a thick resentment, and its number was tens of millions, and these tens of millions of grievances were unknowingly pulled by some mysterious force, and they condensed but did not disperse, converging into a mysterious pattern in the sky, and after the mysterious pattern flickered a few times, it disappeared in an instant.

……………………

Merton only felt a splitting headache and wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't.

In the darkness, scenes of light and shadow flashed in my mind, like a dream, and very real.

In this dream, he became a Tang Dynasty man, his father's name is Mo Lie, a child of the Mo family, is the leader of Li Shimin's Shengong Battalion, in the process of Li Tang's unification of the world, Mo Lie opened mountains and bridges when encountering water, and rushed to the front line every time, repeatedly allowing Li Shimin to seize the opportunity in the battle and make great contributions.

It's a pity that Mo Lie's fortune is shallow, and after the Tang Dynasty unified the world, he couldn't enjoy the glory and wealth. After many years of fighting, he was wounded too much, and unfortunately died young, leaving an empty county marquis to Merton, a guy with the same name and surname as him.

"That's not right." Merton awoke suddenly.

How can this feeling be so clear, it is as if I have experienced it myself.

Merton sat up abruptly, ripped off the sheet over his head, and was stunned by the scene before him.

The rental house he used to live in is gone, but replaced by a classic room, with wooden doors, wooden beds, wooden windows, and wooden rooms.

In other words, the style of this room is very, uh, very ancient!

Merton's IQ was a little anxious, everything in front of him was strange and familiar, the memories flashed in front of his eyes, and the scenes in the dream appeared clearly in his memory, as if the two souls were constantly overlapping in front of his eyes, and finally merged into one.

"Could it be that I really traveled to Datang!" Merton had a luxury in his heart that was constantly soaring.

How is this possible, Merton trembled with excitement, and couldn't believe it, he lost five million and two yuan, but he actually won the biggest prize in the universe, crossing.

He traveled to the Tang Dynasty and became a declining aristocrat during the Zhenguan period.

Looking at his face in the bronze mirror, Merton still seemed to be dreaming.

After a long time, Merton finally calmed down, and he came to the Tang Dynasty, one of the greatest eras of the entire Chinese nation, which did not seem to be a bad thing.

As if to confirm Merton's conjecture, the door creaked, and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl in purple pushed the door in.

Ziyi grew up with Mo Dun from a young age, and he is also considerate when he takes care of Mo Dun, but unfortunately Mo Dun paid attention to the beauties in Chang'an City before, and he didn't care about Zi Yi around him at all.

According to Merton's current thinking, Ziyi has at least eighty points, which is still the premise that she has not yet grown up, and in a few years, she will also be a role that will bring disaster to the country and the people.

Pingbai picked up a knighthood, and now there are beautiful maids to serve him, and Merton's happy life seems to have begun from there.

However, Merton's dream didn't last a second before it was ruthlessly shattered by the purple clothes.

"Young master, it's not good, Second Uncle Li has already come to the door of Mofu, you hide quickly, or you will be beaten again!" Ziyi said with a panicked expression.

"Beaten?" Merton's face was suddenly covered with black lines, and at the same time, the terrifying memories of Second Uncle Li in his body flooded into his heart like a tide.

"Once, twice,......, many times."

Forget it, I can't count it.

"Don't talk nonsense, how can Second Uncle Li be willing to beat me if he hurts me so much?" Merton said with a dry smile, but his body shivered honestly.

"Young master, have you forgotten that this year, our Mojia Village has been affected by a large area of disasters, and the grain production has been reduced by half, and everyone is waiting for you to go to Chang'an City to worship the lord? But you've lost all your money? Second Uncle Li probably knew about this matter. Ziyi said with a worried face.

"Ugh!"

Merton then remembered from his messy memories that Merton's son had died early and had not left him much at all.

In addition, some soldiers who followed Mo Lie back then came to settle in Mojia Village after retiring, resulting in a sharp increase in the population of Mojia Village.

And they are the children of the Mo family, born to deal with Confucianism, the officials in charge of the knighthood secretly make it bad, and directly use these thousand households as Mo Lie's food estate, resulting in Mo Lie's title is not the highest, but he is indeed the only one among all the ministers who is the lord of a thousand households in a real food town.

Although it is a good thing to have more people, but the rewarded fields have been secretly spoiled, and all that is given is wasteland, the grain production in this era is low, and Mojia Village is close to the stone turtle valley, the terrain is low-lying, drought and flood disasters often occur, it is a typical saline-alkali land, and the yield of crops is very low, plus this year is a disaster year, it is even worse, and the grain production is greatly reduced and cannot support the consumption of more than 1,000 households.

All the hope of Mojia Village was to rely on the Yulu that Modon brought from Chang'an City to exchange for food, but after the good-faced Morton met a group of fox friends and dog friends in Chang'an City, he squandered the Yulu he received and returned drunk.

"Merton, you loser come out for me!" There was an angry shout from outside the room, and when he heard this familiar voice, Merton's heart couldn't help but tremble, this was his father's deputy Li Yi

After Mo Lie's death, the entire Mojia Village was managed by Li Yi, including Merton.

Since Mo Lie's death, Li Yi has been extremely strict with him, and he is usually the one who is most afraid of Merton.

"Brother Li is angry, the young master is still young, there is no need to move such a big anger." Uncle Fu's voice came.

Uncle Fu is also an old man in the Shengong Battalion, but he retired because of an injury, and later became the housekeeper of the Mo family, and he was also loyal to the Mo family.

"Brother Fu, don't stop me, I must teach this stinky boy a lesson today, he actually joked with the lives of the whole village and squandered all the money he received."

"Young master, what should I do! Now that Second Master Li knows, he will definitely punish you, so hurry up and hide! Ziyi said with an anxious face.

According to past experience, Merton must have run as far as he could, and he would come back after Li Yi's anger had subsided.

But Merton was no longer the weak boy he had before, and this time he did not run away, but straightened his clothes, opened the door and walked out.

"Young Master!" Ziyi exclaimed, and followed out quickly worriedly.

Outside the door, a white-washed, emaciated middle-aged man was rushing inside, and Fauber persuaded and stopped him again, and when he saw Merton walking out of the door, the two of them were stunned.

"Fu Bo, second uncle!"

Merton took a cold breath, let out a puff of white smoke, and greeted him as normal.

It wasn't until Merton bowed and saluted that the two suddenly separated.

"Young Master!" Fauber replied.

"Stinky boy, do you know how much trouble you've gotten into now?" Li Yi said angrily, and the ring in his hand was raised high, but it was not knocked down.

Because he saw that Merton seemed to be a little different, in the past, Merton was trembling with him, but now Merton was very calm, not at all panicked and cowardly.

"Second uncle, you don't know yet! The price of grain in Chang'an City has risen by fifty percent, and that little money is a drop in the bucket at all, and it can't feed thousands of people in Mojia Village at all. Merton said.

"That can't be squandered, at least some of the food can have a little more hope." Li Yi said angrily.

Fauber opened his mouth, looked at Li Yi, then at Merton, and finally sighed bitterly.

Mo Lie's title is neither high nor low for the county marquis, and Chang'an City is not conspicuous at all, and it was passed to Mo Suddenly and it was lowered by one level, leaving only the county uncle, and the original few Yu Lu was downgraded by one level.

In addition, the population of Mojia Village is large, and it was originally a real food town with thousands of households, but after a few years of living and recuperating, the population has skyrocketed a lot, and the food produced is not enough at all. Besides, those Lulu were originally Merton's, and Merton has now spent the money, so what right does he have to blame?

For a moment, Li Yi fell silent, his heart full of bitterness. Thinking of the thousands of people in the village who lacked food and clothing, it was already October, and how they would survive this cold winter, Li Yi felt painful in his heart, but then a voice made him look up in astonishment.

"Since I made the mistake, it's up to me to make amends, and I promise that no villager will starve or freeze to death this winter." Merton said solemnly.

"Now I want to know how poor Mojia Village really is!"
