Chapter 464: Making a Windfall
"Brother Wang!"
After entering the fangmen, Li Mu saw Wang Hu who was about to go out at a glance, got off the horse, and said hello with a smile. Wang Hu hurriedly returned the salute, he looked at Li Mu's bearing, which was very different from when he was leaving. When he left with Li Siwen, Li Mucai had just come to Chang'an City, although he was already a marquis, his thinking and status had not yet been completely matched, and he did not have the calmness and temperament of a person in a high position.
Wang Hu interacted with him, and when he was Li Mu when he was a county magistrate in Dingxiang, he didn't realize his humility.
But at this time, Li Mu was already accustomed to the identity of a marquis. And what he did during this time, either through the mouth of the merchant or through Li Siwen and his letters, all reached Dingxiang. Wang Hu naturally knows what kind of status Li Mu is in Chang'an City.
Seventeen-year-old from Sanpin, throughout the ages, there is only a twelve-year-old Ganluo who worships the prime minister can be compared. At this time, Li Mu's bearing is not the same as at the beginning. Wang Hu is just Li Ji's personal soldier, how dare he be this "Brother Wang?" ”
"Master Hou tortures me, just call me Wang Hu, don't dare to be a big brother."
Li Mu said with a smile: "Why is Brother Wang still estranged, no matter what position I am in, we are all brothers who have lived and died together in Dingxiang City, how can we not be ashamed, don't mention such words in the future." ”
Wang Hu saw that Li Mu didn't seem to be a fake, so he had to respond to this, and he couldn't help but feel a little more emotion in his heart.
He has seen Li Mu's down-and-out appearance, when he was in Dingxiang City, Li Mu was a county minister, and led a group of homeless people to repair the city wall, going out early and returning late every day, Dingxiang is adjacent to the desert grassland, the wind and sand are very large, and he is disgraced every day.
Who would have thought that such a young man, in less than ten months, would already be from a high position in the third grade.
"Brother Wang, have you just arrived? Why don't you rest, you come with me, I have a treat today, we don't get drunk and have no home! ”
"No, no, no." Wang Hu came to his senses, waved his hand again and again, and said: "I won't drink the wine today, I still have my mother in the hall, and I haven't been around for many days, which is already a big unfilial piety." Now that he is back, he naturally has to accompany his mother first, and I hope that Hou Ye can be considerate. ”
"Oh, it's filial piety, it's inconvenient for me to stop it, anyway, it's not like I'll leave in a day or two, and it's the same if we get together in the future." As he spoke, Li Mu handed the reins in his hand to Wang Hu and said, "Walk too slowly, go on horseback." ”
Wang Hu returned to his heart like an arrow, and he was not polite, thanked him, turned over and walked away.
Li Mu sent a paragraph, turned around, and suddenly a young general with a whole body appeared in front of him, so heroic. Li Mu subconsciously took a step back and said, "Who is coming?" ”
"Brother-in-law, it's me, I'm Gensheng!"
"Roots?" Li Mu looked up and down, frowned, and said, "Are you Gensheng?" Why did you grow so tall and strong, ouch, you have grown a beard! Li Mu touched his chin, which had no hair at all, and was a little unconfident, and said vaguely: "It's good, there are no arms or legs." Have you ever seen your parents? Have you seen your sister? ”
"I've seen it! Waiting for you here! "Bai Gensheng's personality is much more cheerful than when he left. It's not as silly as it used to be, it's a little more clever. Suddenly, he saw Dugu Jiu wearing a mask behind Li Mu, frowned slightly, and said, "Brother-in-law, this is ......"
"This is my brother-in-law, you haven't seen him. His name is Dugu Jiu, and he is also your brother. ”
"Oh." Bai Gensheng smiled, hugged his fists and said, "Bai Qi has seen my brother." ”
Dugu Jiu subconsciously returned the salute and was blocked by Li Mu. Li Mu frowned and looked at Bai Gensheng, and said, "Boy, why have you been gone for a few months, and your name has changed?" Aren't you Bai Gensheng, why did you change your name to Bai Qi? Do you know who Bai Qi is? Is this name called casually? ”
"Brother-in-law, the name Bai Gensheng is too similar to a village husband. I'm now in the right place, and our general said that my future is limitless. Sooner or later, one day, I will become a general. Don't underestimate people, I've read a lot of books in the past few months, of course I know who Bai Qi is, I just want to be such a general. Don't call me Gensheng in the future, I changed my name to Bai Qi, and my father agreed. Besides, hasn't my sister changed her name, why can she change her name, I can't change her name, I have to change it! ”
"Oops, hey!" Li Mu raised his hand and slapped Bai Gensheng on the back of the head, scolding: "It's really out of luck, dare to talk back to your brother-in-law?" Still talking about your sister, can you compare with your sister? Your sister married a good husband, and her good husband was given by me to the marquis of the third grade, and she earned the life of the third grade, so she changed her name. But even if it is changed, isn't it still called Qiaoqiao at home? You kid is a team leader with no grade and no level, and a little official with a big sesame seed, and he is still on the score! Tell me, which general sees that your future is limitless? I'd like to see what blind man can get into the general! ”
"It's me!" Li Siwen ran over, still holding a jeweled crown in his hand, and said with a smile: "Big brother, am I not the general in Gensheng's mouth?" You forget, Dingxiang is my territory, and I am General Zhichong. I'm not wrong, his brother-in-law is Li Mu, so naturally it is unlimited, haha......" Seeing that Li Mu's complexion changed, Li Siwen hurriedly interrupted, shifted the topic to the crown, and said, "Big brother, what do you think of this crown?" Not bad, right? Guess where I got it from? ”
Li Mu looked at the crown and didn't see any way to it, but seeing that the gems on it were not small, he thought that the value must be very high, and said, "I can't guess, where did it come from?" ”
"Big brother, don't envy me." Li Siwen couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and said, "Although I don't have your ability, I have one that is okay, my luck is good." Didn't I build another new city, and did I have to dig the foundation to build a new city? When digging the foundation, and guess what, I dug out a grave! This crown was dug up from the tomb, you see this gem, it can be worth a lot of money, right? ”
When Li Mu heard this, his hands trembled, the crown fell to the ground, and he couldn't help but laugh: "You, you kid are really ...... Dig up the grave, you? Is there a lack of virtue? ”
"I didn't mean to!" Li Siwen hurriedly defended and said, "Who let it go under my new city, I'm not too unlucky!" He bent down to pick up the crown, wiped the dust off his head, and said, "I guess this must be something that a Turkic leader stole in our Central Plains and buried in his tomb." After an unknown number of years, it fell into the hands of my Li Siwen, which can be regarded as the return of the goods to their original owners. Wouldn't it be better for me to dig up these treasures, exchange them for grain, and then transport them back to Dingxiang to feed the displaced people, than to bury them in the ground? ”
Li Mu really can't deny this, Comrade Li Siwen's consciousness is still very high. It's just that the owner of the tomb has been suffering for an unknown number of years, and it has been dug out, and the treasure that he has saved for a lifetime has been looted, and the robber has not felt a trace of guilt, which is somewhat pitiful.
Li Mu rubbed his nose and asked, "Have you buried it for others, digging people's graves and not burying them again, it's a bit unrighteous." ”
"Buried, can I do an errand," Li Siwen said solemnly: "There is a person among the displaced people who used to be a Turkic mage, I asked him to deal with it, and he was cremated according to the customs of the Turks." ”
"......" Li Mu didn't want to say anything anymore, pursed his lips, and asked, "And then?" ”
"Half to the sky, half to the river."
Well, not only did he dig up the grave, but he also broke his bones and scattered ashes by the way.
Li Mu instantly had a little headache, is this really the brother I brought out single-handedly? How can there be no humanity so far! Li Mu sighed, hooked Li Siwen's shoulder, and asked, "How many treasures have been dug up, take me to see it." ”
When Dugu Jiu heard this, he almost fell to the ground. Listening to the meaning of what he said just now, he thought that Li Mu had to reprimand Li Siwen a few words, who would have thought that it would be like this! He now understands a little why Li Mu treats Li Siwen as his best brother, and the two of them are the same dog! Although Li Siwen has no heart and lungs, when he is bold, he is a miniature version of Li Mu, the difference is that Li Mu only does it when he has the bottom in his heart, while Li Siwen does it when he goes up, and he doesn't consider having a bottom at all. But the shameless appearance of the two is simply carved in a mold.
Bai Gensheng followed behind, and when he heard Dugu Jiu's sigh, he smiled and said, "Brother, it's good to get used to it, when our general was in Dingxiang, he was even more shameless than now, and here he has already restrained a lot." ”
Dugu Jiu was stunned: "Why? ”
"Because my brother-in-law is the most shameless, he learned from my brother-in-law."
"......" Dugu Jiu was completely speechless and didn't want to speak.
Coming to Fengqiuhuang's backyard, Li Mu was an eye-opener. Open a box, gold and silver treasures, and open another box, jade utensils. He picked up a jade bowl casually, it was crystal clear, and he couldn't find any traces of the knife and axe, as if it was natural. A jade of this level, resting in his previous life, is casually a price of hundreds of millions!
It's no wonder that there are no such good things on the market now, and the dare to let the predecessors be buried in the tomb.
Li Mu was amazed and said, "Well dug up, virtuous brother, let these treasures see the light of day, your credit is great!" ”
"It's a little thing." Li Siwen said modestly: "I have only done my best, but I have already organized an excavation team, found experienced herdsmen as guides, searched around Dingxiang, and once I found the unclaimed tomb, I will dig it up and take a look." I think so, the construction of Dingxiang needs money, and now in these years, who can give money to whomever you want, you have to be self-reliant. It's a pity that these treasures are buried in the ground, and it's time to find them a knowing owner. Big brother, do you think you can sell it for money? ”
"Yes, yes, yes. In a few days, let's have an auction......" Li Mu casually opened another box, and it turned out to be a box of painting scrolls.
"What is this?" Li Mu picked one up and opened it, stammering in fright: "Lan, Lan Lan Lan Pavilion Order?" ”
