5. Identity

For Li Ming, the most important thing for him to integrate into this society now is to figure out what is happening in this era, whether it is as recorded in history!

When considering these problems, Li Ming's mind gradually became clear, and he could not adapt to this era according to the history he remembered.

You still need to get out and walk around when you have time, ask around, and see what's going on! The most important thing now is to learn the language of this era!

After breakfast, I went to Lao Xiucai, took out a pen and paper, and prepared to learn the language with Lao Xiucai, Lao Xiucai was still drinking tea next to the stone bench, and when I looked at the paper and pen that Li Ming took out, his eyes were straight, he had never seen it, and he snatched the paper in Li Ming's hand!

The mouth is still chattering, that is, the emperor probably has never used such a good paper, this is really good, I have turned around in various places that sell paper and pens in Kyoto, and I have seen a lot, where does such paper come from, and this pen, it makes no sense at all, and I don't need ink, and the brush is completely different things!

Li Ming took the pen and paper and began to write on the paper, saying that he wanted to learn how to speak, Lao Xiucai picked up Li Ming's pen and learned to write, it felt very magical, and wrote: Yes! In this way, Li Ming wrote some daily uses, and Lao Xiu read them.

After going back and forth, Li Ming remembered, this is called Tang Yayin, which is similar to the northwest dialect, and Li Ming is from Yongzhou in later generations!

Thinking of this, Li Ming's learning speed has accelerated a lot, and in half a month, he has basically mastered the language of this era! It's just that the mastery of some strange dialects is still a little hot, and in the future, I will learn slowly and communicate with each other in daily life, Li Ming has no problem!

In the case of mastering the language, it is very convenient to communicate!

Although Lao Xiucai was puzzled by Li Ming's identity, after dating Li Ming for a few days, according to Lao Xiucai's experience and observation of Li Ming, he felt that he was not a big traitor!

In Datang, there are very few people who can read and hyphenation, the whole existence, more than 100 households, no more than 10 households who support children to study, sometimes they are enlightened, and it is good to know their own names!

Li Ming was brought by his own students, and it is estimated that he met by chance, although he muttered in his heart, he still chatted with Li Ming about what he saw and heard in various places!

On this day, Lao Xiucai said to Li Ming, you need to go to the chief security officer to register your identity!

Li Ming's brain was struck, and at this time he knew that he was still a black household in Datang, and he must have an identity certificate, otherwise it would be inconvenient to go out to do things in the future! If you don't get it right, you will be imprisoned and killed!

The following management systems in Datang County are: County: County Order; The county clerk, the main book, the county lieutenant, the record, and the history.

Township: Elderly;

Li: Lizheng;

Village: Muramasa;

Bao: Bao Chang;

Neighbor: Neighbor length. Four families and one neighbor, five neighbors and one guarantee, five guarantees and one mile, five miles and one township; A natural village is a village. There is no village in the city, and the square is the same as the village.

The old Xiucai is good, I see that Li Ming is also literate and hyphenated, unlike a treacherous person, and I heard that Li Ming's parents died and he was helpless, so he had the heart to take it in!

Li Ming asked what he should do again, and Lao Xiu came up with an idea, saying that he was attached to the Xiao family, and that he was a distant relative of the Xiao family, and he went to say hello to Xiao Uncle Xiao of the Xiao family about this matter!

Lao Xiucai came forward, this matter is much easier to do, Xiao Bo didn't say anything, if he can be attached to his own house, then according to Li Ming's age, he can get another hectare of the sky, and he can also add another ploughing cow, such a thing, why not!

Land has been the most important resource for peasants throughout the ages, and almost all peasant uprisings have been for the sake of equalizing the land!

With Shaw's acceptance, then the matter is half the battle!

The next thing is to visit Lizheng, this is a relatively moderate official position, too big is easy to cause trouble, Lao Xiucai also said that Lizheng is a person, and there is still a bit of an official reputation in the local area!

These are also quite powerful, usually counting the population, calling for taxes, and so on! Datang still pays taxes, levies, etc. according to the Sui system, so the control of the population is very strict to prevent the hidden population!

As a modern person, Li Ming's grasp of human nature is relatively accurate, and he feels that he should let Li Zheng raise his noble hand and give himself an identity! Then it's nothing more than money opening the way.

But now that he is penniless, it is impossible for Lao Xiucai to contribute to himself, as for Xiao Ye, let alone a child, the family is not too rich, so what can I give to Lizheng!

When Li Ming crossed, the things on the ship were all modern electrical appliances and other things, and they were not practical! Li Ming searched around in his travel bag, thermos cups, clothes, some packaging ingredients, a few buckets of instant noodles, and nail clippers!

Finally, he found a Finnish saber in the zipper on the side, Li Ming's eyes lit up, and he felt that this was reliable! When I used to buy knives, everyone thought that the Swiss army knife was very famous, but what everyone didn't know was that the Finnish army knife was also very good.

After thinking about it, he took this Finnish knife with him, and walked to Lizheng's house with Lao Xiucai and Xiao Ye, a village of 100 households, which is indeed not big, and after a while, he came to Lizheng's house!

As the most grassroots official of the Tang Dynasty, usually there is still a little oil and water, this is a three-entry house, the front hall, the middle courtyard and the back yard, the back yard is generally a place for family members, and the front hall is used to receive visitors!

Li Zheng is a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in green clothes, which is the same as the official clothing of the Tang Dynasty, with three-inch black hair, which looks particularly spiritual and refined, and has the shrewdness of a grassroots official in his eyes!

After the guests and hosts sat down, they did not serve tea, the reason is that at this time, as the north, the Tang people still don't like to drink tea, but the south has a saying of boiling tea!

Lao Xiucai said straight to the point: Wang Lizheng, my student, has a distant relative from Longxi, surnamed Li Mingming, because the livelihood of Guanlongxi Regions is really hard, and it is inconvenient to marry relatives, so he came from thousands of miles to join his relatives.

Wang Lizheng, you also know, regarding the settlement issue, please also ask Lizheng to facilitate one or two! Li Zheng also knew Xiao Ye and knew that he was a student of Lao Xiucai, so he didn't say anything!

Wang Lizheng glanced at Li Ming, and felt that the clothes he was wearing didn't fit very well, and his hair was still short, and his heart said that this is the dress in Longxi, that place, there are more Hu people, and the dress is more weird, and when he went to the state capital the year before last, he also saw a lot!

This Li Ming still looks a little more pleasing to the eye than those Hu people!

The mouth said: This time is different from the past, now the world is decided, the household registration has been recompiled last year, according to the Tang law, once every three years, for the foreign population, or the restrictions are quite strict, Longxi generation, there are often strong and strong people appear, the official family attaches great importance to it, I am afraid it is inconvenient to settle down!

Li Ming has seen a lot of such official words, when dealing with officials at all levels in ordinary times, if you come and do things well as soon as you come, then how can you show the importance of power, so there is still a bottom to see the truth!

Li Ming then said: Li Zheng, I came from Longxi, trekking through mountains and rivers, it is for hardship, if it is not for the livelihood is not easy, I will not come here to join my relatives! I came from Guanlong, and got a treasure knife on the way, in my opinion, I don't know what material it is, can I please appreciate it or two.

As soon as Li Zheng heard that there was a treasure knife, his eyes lit up, Ao, there is such a thing, take it out and let us see!

Li Ming took out the Finnish saber from his sleeve and handed it to Li Zheng!

Li Zheng took this saber, on the handle and scabbard, the eyes are a little straight, think about it, the precious Finnish saber produced by modern science and technology, the impact on the ancients is quite large!

Rizheng watched it a few times, and then pulled out his saber, the impact of stainless steel made Rizheng feel dizzy, and he tried to touch the blade to see how sharp it was!

Li Ming hurriedly exited to stop: Li Zheng, don't touch it at will, pay attention to cuts!

Lizheng, Ao, is so sharp?

Li Ming: I'll give it a try, and I'll give you an eye!

Li Ming borrowed a copper plate from Lao Xiucai, put it on the edge of the copper plate with a knife blade, and cut it down, but the copper plate was cut off one by one, Li Ming continued to sharpen, and the copper plates came down one by one! Li Zheng, Lao Xiucai, Xiao Ye's eyes were straight, and they all said, incredible, incredible!

Nonsense, the modern saber, the ancient copper plate can't be sharpened, it is the ordinary fruit knife used at home now, and it is a baby-like existence in Datang!

"Wang Lizheng, this treasure knife also has a magical place, that is, the whole body is bright silver, and it will not rust!

"How?" Wang Lizheng said.

"The year before last, there was a big flood in Longxi, and the torrential rain hit our area, and many ancient tombs were washed out!

On the way to the pass, a tomb to get this treasure knife, used for self-defense, according to the general situation, the knife unearthed in the ancient tomb, most of the bronze material, has long been decayed, I saw this treasure knife silver white throughout, particularly surprised! Since I got this sword, I haven't seen any signs of rust!

Li Zheng took the saber from Li Ming's hand, and he couldn't put it down, because if this thing was to be paid tribute to the upper echelons, he would get more benefits! "Isn't there anything else in that tomb?

As soon as Li Ming heard this, he said in his heart, this Li Zheng is quite greedy, and said: Because it was washed by the flood, I only saw this treasure knife, and I was in a hurry to go, and I didn't look for it in many places

"That's a pity!" Speaking of which, Li Zheng returned the saber to the sheath and wanted to return it to Li Ming!

Li Ming has already seen that Li Zheng is tempted, such a modern saber, as long as it is a person, has a covetous heart, so Li Ming said: This knife is dusty in me, as a farmer, working in the field, paying taxes for the court is the right way, this knife is used to chop wood, it is a waste, not from Yu Li is playing with it!

"No merit is not punished, where is this embarrassing"

"Isn't it still troublesome for me to settle down?

"Hahahaha, it's easy to say, I'll play with this treasure knife first!"

"Lizheng, I came from the poor land of Guanlong, and the entanglement in my hands has been exhausted, and I have no land in your land, so life is really not easy."

"It's easy to say, Li Lang's settlement matter, I will report it as soon as possible and give him an official identity!!

"Li Lang is so old!"

"Twenty years old!"

"Twenty is Ding Nan, according to the laws of the imperial court, you can get a hectare of land, and Ding Nan is going to pay taxes!"

"Then thank you first, and I am shy in my pocket, farm tools, ploughing cattle, wheat seeds, etc. still need to be spent, the Xiao family is my relative, and his family can only protect itself!

"Okay, help people to the end, who let us fall in love with each other, I will take out twenty yuan here to buy all the necessary items such as family and agricultural products for Li Lang, although I am an official of the imperial court, this is also my greatest ability!"

"Where is there, I thanked the chief in advance, but even if these are borrowed from me, when I make a fortune another day, I will definitely pay it back."

"It's easy to say, hahaha, it's not too early, I won't leave you behind, the problem of Li Lang's settlement will be completed in three or five days, and I will send the household registration certificate to the Xiao family when the time comes!"
