Chapter 117: Blue-eyed and humble

Regardless of Zhang Mo and Zhou Yong's hard work, Xu You resolutely brushed his sleeves away!

In fact, his heart was not as angry as he appeared, Zhang Mo was not a stupid person, knowing that the Xu family and the Shen family had formed an irresolvable blood feud, and he still wanted to introduce the enemy's children to him, presumably there was another reason for it. It's just that this reason can't be listened to now, and the "Book of Rites" stipulates very clearly, the enemy's hatred is with the same heaven, the enemy's hatred is not against the army, and the hatred of the friend is not from the same country, that is to say, the hatred of killing the father cannot coexist in the world, and we must find ways to find the enemy to kill; In the case of brotherly enmity, you must carry a weapon with you, so as not to encounter an enemy and have to go home to get it; Friends and enemies cannot coexist in one country. Even if Xu You stayed with Shen Meng for a while, it would be a coward and a big crime of violating filial piety, which was despised by the world, so he didn't even listen to Zhang Mo's explanation, didn't stop for a moment, and immediately turned around and went downstairs.

This has the added benefit of letting them know that Xu You doesn't have to join the association, and with the profound attainments of the four tones that he has just revealed, he can start from scratch and win over others to create a century-old innovation situation.

In this way, everyone except Zhang Mo can be filled with a sense of crisis, so that there will be less resistance and criticism for Xu You as the leader of the social affairs alliance!

Xu You has been in the world for a long time, and he is not one of those young people who are ignorant of the world, on the contrary, his understanding of people's hearts is far above most people, so Zhang Mo really praises him as the leader of the alliance, but Zhou Yong, Du Sheng, Wu Shixing, etc. are all well-known talents in this county, and they are arrogant and have eyes above the top.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and if there are more than three people, there will be all kinds of complex interpersonal relationships, Xu You is very handy in handling this kind of thing, and he will not feel embarrassed. Dreams must be had, interests must also be had, dreams alone or a group that relies solely on interests can not be long-lasting, only the two are complete, dreams for the future, interests to stabilize the present, in order to unite and move forward hand in hand.

Back in Jingyuan, Xu You explained to Li Mu that if Zhang Mo came to the door again, he would refuse his visit, but his words should be polite and respectful, and he should not be rude. Li Mu couldn't understand in a daze, obviously the Lord and Zhang Langjun had been talking and laughing in the past two days, and they were very deed, why did they go out for tea today and change when they came back?

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Zhang Mo to follow, and was rejected by Li Muwan, he smiled bitterly: "I am tired of your family, I acted badly, which caused everyone to have a dislike, and I really regretted it." I won't mention it today, and I'll come back tomorrow to take the blame! ”

Li Mu relayed the original words to Xu You, Xu You was grinding and practicing calligraphy in the company of frost, calligraphy did not advance or retreat, he came to Qiantang from the Jin Tomb, in order to survive and gain a foothold busy feet do not touch the ground, many days have not touched the pen.

"Zhang Budo said that he will come back tomorrow?"

"Yes! Zhang Langjun said clearly, early tomorrow morning, he will come again to ask for guilt. ”

Xu You put down the pen, not very satisfied with the words written, crumpled it casually, and laid out the paper with a smile, and said, "Xiaolang can't see him?"

"Nope!"

Zhang Mo came to the door for three days in a row, but Xu You avoided it, and had no choice but to leave a handwritten letter to express his apologies, and left in a daze. Lu Shuang carefully persuaded: "If Xiaolang really annoys him, he will disappear if he doesn't see it." But if they are ready to maintain each other's relationship in the future, they have refused three times in a row, and I am afraid that Zhang Langjun will hold a grudge. She pursed her lips and smiled, "Liu Bei invited Kong Ming, but after three visits to the thatched house, even if Xiaolang is a hundred times better than Kong Ming, I am afraid that Zhang Langjun does not have Uncle Liu's heart." ”

Xu You didn't look at it, threw the handwritten book to the frost preservation, and said: "The heavens will descend on the Si people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skin, empty their bodies, and act chaotically." The five-colored dragon luan wants to do a big thing that will leave a name for the ages, and he can't stand some grievances, that's because I misjudged him. If it is not bad as expected, in a few days, he will come to the door, and it will not be too late to see you then! ”

"Xiao Lang has so much confidence in him?"

Xu You put down his pen and said with a slight smile: "I don't have confidence in him, but I have confidence in Sandufu, Gu Yun has been running around in Wu County these days, and I guess it's time for some response." After that, he closed the door and did not see any outsiders, concentrated on learning calligraphy, and had a rare leisurely time.

During this time, the influence of Sandu Fu began to gradually appear, and the clan gate lords, Taoist Buddhist temples, and officials and scholars competed for copying, pushing his prestige to an incomparable level.

Unlike cross poems, the poems are catchy, easy to understand, and popular very quickly, so Xu You came down from Lonely Mountain and has become a well-known celebrity in Qiantang County. However, the three fu are different, as the most vast Kyoto fu in the haiku, one is more words, the second is more dictionaries, and the third is more obscure knowledge, which is not easy to understand, and it is not easy to spread. Therefore, Sandu Fu first spread to Wu County with Zhang Zihua, Gu Yun and others, and after intentional or unintentional promotion, several Confucian people admired by the world commented on the preface and praised each other, which slowly attracted the attention of the entire literary world. Then the upward and downward effect, everyone competes to see, the herd effect plus the quality is excellent, and finally set off a mighty sound tide, down the river, through the mouth of Youyou, affecting the twelve counties of Yangzhou.

"Xiao Lang, his wing Lang Jun sent someone to send a letter back, these days there are suddenly a lot more people buying paper, the workshop is working day and night, even he has personally gone into battle to make paper, still too busy, you want to buy some slaves from the human market no matter what. Otherwise, the gold shop will have to close its doors, and it will no longer dare to receive customers who come to buy paper, and the goodwill will be lost, which will be unfavorable ......in the long run."

Although Xu You is almost perfectly integrated into this era, he is still a little psychologically clean, and he avoids the behavior of buying people in the market, but Liu Yan is an obstacle from it, and he can't recruit good people to work on the left and right, and in desperation, he can't go to the city according to He Wei's requirements.

In fact, the human market cannot be called a human market, and the official never recognizes this statement. The formation of the human market originated from the military market established for the disposal of prisoners of war, and later became a place for all social strata to buy and sell slaves, and it was also privately called the human market. During the Six Dynasties, there were generally three ways to source slaves: first, prisoners of war, mostly Northern Wei and barbarians; second, criminals and their families, slaves, subordinates, etc.; The third is landless peasants and displaced people. These slaves were flooded with lowly families such as camp households, miscellaneous households, and happy households, and after being rewarded by the imperial court and transferred by the scholars, they gradually flowed into the human market and became goods for people to choose and buy.

"Okay!"

Facing the reality, Xu You had no choice but to compromise and said: "Fenghu, you go to the human market with the winter solstice and frost, and buy twenty people back first." Fifteen young men, don't live the age of a weak crown, five young ladies who have just reached the bridle, try not to be prisoners of war, slaves or female dependents of the prisoner's family are the best, and the others can also be chosen as appropriate, you can do it yourself. ”

Zuo Yan and they took the order, and in just two hours, they brought back twenty-three people. When I asked, I found out that because I bought a lot and belonged to the big customers, the slave dealer gave three extra people. Xu You couldn't cry or laugh when he heard it, people are not as good as cattle and horses, nothing more than this.

Fifteen of the twenty-three men, most of them between thirteen and eighteen years old, were skinny, yellow-skinned, and looked like the sequelae of long-term malnutrition, but they were in good spirits, and they were not so bad that they could not afford to be overwhelmed and fall seriously ill. Six of the eight maidens were about fourteen or fifteen years old, in their best years, with delicate eyebrows and delicate eyes, better than the men seemed to live.

However, Xu You's gaze stayed on the last two people, one of these two was a twenty-four-five-year-old woman, her skin was unusually fair, her nose was straight and straight, her eyes were blue, her hair was faintly golden in the sun, and she looked at the right face alone, her posture was very beautiful, but most of her left face was burned, the scar was exposed, and it was meandering like a ghost, which was daunting.

In her right hand, she was holding a little girl of seven or eight years old!

Xu You frowned and said, "Huh? What's going on? ”

A group of slaves stood in the courtyard, not knowing the temper and conduct of the new master, and not knowing what work to be assigned to, one by one trembling, not daring to raise their heads, hearing Xu You's slightly angry question, there was a girl who might be too nervous, her feet were weak, and she sat down on the ground.

Xu You couldn't bear it, and said: "Settle them down first, the man is in charge of Li Mu, and the girl is in charge of the winter solstice...... Also, on the autumn equinox, make them something to eat, not too greasy, lighter, so as not to suffer the stomach! ”

"No!"

The autumn equinox, Li Mu and the winter solstice immediately went to arrange, Xu You glanced at Zuo Yan and Lu Shuang, and said, "You two come with me!" ”

Entering the room, before Zuo Yan could speak, he knelt down, folded his hands, put his head on the ground, and said, "Please punish Xiaolang!" ”

Xu You turned around and sat on the futon and said, "What mistake did you make that you want me to punish?" ”

"The servant shouldn't make an assertion and take the old and the young back home!"

"Did you hear what I was telling when I was about to go out?"

"Hear me clearly!"

"Does that include the woman and the child?"

"Nope!"

"Very good!" Xu You sighed and said, "I finally got acquainted, I won't treat you badly, take 500,000 yuan and go back to Wu County!" ”

"Xiao Lang Kaig!"

The frost suddenly became anxious, and the beautiful forehead knocked down heavily, and blood splattered everywhere. Zuo Yan didn't expect Xu Youfa to have such a big temper, so he hurriedly knelt down and said pleadingly: "Lang Jun, I am also at fault in this matter, I am willing to be punished together with Lu Shuang, I just beg not to drive her away......"

"I know your character, you always only obey orders and don't talk about personal feelings, if it weren't for your insistence, you would never have brought this woman and child back."

Xu You was rarely angry, but at this moment he had to be furious and reprimanded: "We have come to Qiantang since we came, what a dangerous situation are we facing? I am afraid that I can't protect myself, where is the spare strength to shelter the prisoners of war from the Northern Dynasties? The injury on the right side of her face is clearly self-harm to cover up her true identity, her identity is unknown, how dare she buy it back to the house without authorization? That's it, but there is still a little girl, whether you have a good heart, or you are confused for a while, why don't you want to think about it, that little girl has just been in her teens, and how dangerous it is to follow us? Maybe tomorrow she will be shot by a dark arrow in front of your eyes, and you want to help her get out of the sea of suffering, but in fact, you turned your head and sent her to death with your own hands! ”

"Xiaolang, I know it's wrong, I know it's wrong!"

The frost can't cry silently, the pear blossoms bring rain, and I feel pity.
