On the square, with the departure of those Jianghu men, it has become much more empty, and the soldiers of the Beifu Army have also closed their teams, and they have returned to the edge of the mountains and forests to defend, the tense atmosphere just now has become much easier, the children of the family have returned to their respective empty seats, and some people have gone directly like Wang Chen, but including the Diao brothers and others, have returned to their original positions, but with the departure of Wang Chen, a heavyweight who confronted Xie Xuan, the original balance has been broken, Xie Xuan and Wang Gong, who were sitting in the center of the front row, undoubtedly became the focus of the audience, even the brothers Huan Xuan and Wang Xun, who attracted a lot of attention at the beginning, seemed to be a lot silent.

Liu Yu is still standing in an inconspicuous corner, after this incident, he deliberately stepped aside, because everyone wanted to see Xie Xuan and Wang Gong, the two immortals, but Liu Yu became unnoticed, and even Liu Yi, who went and returned, obviously attracted the attention of many people, and he was happy to stand in a conspicuous corner, talking and laughing with the little brothers around him.

Shuang'er said dissatisfiedly: "I don't like that Liu Yi, obviously today it was Brother Liu who took action to suppress the whole audience at a critical time, but he just cleaned up a mess, but he made it seem like he had monopolized a great achievement, so shameless." ”

Liu Muzhi laughed: "Shuang'er, this is not the first time this Liu Xile has robbed the merit like this, in fact, it has been the case in the past few years of war, Liu Yu has worked hard every time to stabilize the situation, but the final credit is often robbed for him, even the credit for killing Fu Rong with the arrow is also ............"

Liu Yu immediately said: "Fu Rong was shot by Liu Yi, there is nothing wrong with this." Fatty, I know you're doing it for my good, but there are some things that are better not to say, which is not conducive to unity. ”

Wang Miaoyin's eyebrows frowned: "Brother Yu, could it be that Liu Yi also robbed you of the credit for killing Fu Rong?" ”

Liu Muzhi said hatefully: "But isn't it, I really saw it at the time, it was obvious that in order to save Liu Jingxuan, the slave directly pulled out the arrow on Liu Jingxuan's body, and killed Fu Rong with one arrow, Liu Yi's arrow was shot from behind, but it was equivalent to shooting a corpse, but he was greedy for this great merit of killing the enemy commander." There are some things that cannot be given up casually, and this has nothing to do with unity, but the principle of being a human being. For Liu Yi, if you give in too much, he will not be grateful, but will gain an inch. ”

Liu Yu shook his head: "Liu Yi is also very talented after all, and there are a large number of brothers around him, if I openly turn my face with him, it will not be a good thing for the Beifu Army and the Northern Expedition." In the future, there will be military exploits to be taken, so why stick to these two things. Besides, Xuan Shuai's eyes are bright, won't this time let me be the first to enter the city to be cheered? ”

Liu Muzhi shook his head: "But now everyone thinks that Fu Rong was killed by Liu Yi, but instead thinks that you have robbed him of his merit by virtue of the identity of the quasi-son-in-law of the Xie family, and just now he showed his hand again, so that people who don't know the reason think that it was him Liu Yi who finally made a great contribution, Ji slave, you see that he has been with Wang Chen for so long just now, do you really think that he is accepting a few words of thanks from Wang Chen?" ”

The corners of Liu Yu's mouth hooked: "Liu Yi is a smart person, he will never leave the Xie family at this time to join Wang Chen, only by making contributions in the Northern Expedition can he have a chance to improve." A child of a family like Wang Chen looks down on him at all, and if he wants to get ahead, he can only do it in the army. ”

Liu Muzhi's expression became serious: "If you want to be in the army, you don't necessarily have to rely on the Xie family, besides, the Xie family is not monolithic now, the current relationship between Xuan Shuai and Yan Shuai is very delicate, even if Liu Yi does not follow Wang Chen, it is possible to switch to Yan Shuai's side." ”

Liu Yu thought of the storyteller veteran he met in the square, his heart sank, and he said in a low voice: "Didn't Yan Shuai come to participate in this auction today?" ”

Wang Miaoyin shook his head: "No, after my cousin came back from Weishui, he almost closed his door, and he didn't even have a few words with Lord Xianggong, I heard that he did have a lot of opinions about Xuan Shuai's monopoly." ”

Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Then we have to hurry up and pick out some available servants and subordinates as soon as possible, so that we can make contributions in the Northern Expedition." Only by performing well on the battlefield can you share more pressure for Xuan Shuai and the Xie family, so as not to allow outsiders to take advantage of the situation. ”

At this time, on the high platform, Wang Mi stood up, cleared his throat, and said: "Everyone, just now because of some things, there was a delay of some time, so now we will speed up and auction these Qin prisoners of war, according to the custom, these prisoners of war can be auctioned into your family members, according to the law of the Great Jin Dynasty, these people must be registered, and the owner of the house will pay taxes according to the law, and today's auction is tentatively set at four thousand yuan per person, if no one bids, they will pay at this price, and they will also pay the deed tax on the sale, For every 1,000 yuan, a tax of 40 yuan will be paid, and all the money obtained from today's auction will be collected into the state treasury to make up for the consumption of this year's water war. ”

Huan Xuan said coldly: "Secretary Wang, since today is an auction meeting, bidding should be allowed, besides, these prisoners of war are very strong, but some of the strongest people must be wanted by every family, so there must be people bidding, and there will be no such harmony as you said." ”

Wang Mi smiled and said: "Huan Shizi, you are familiar with the law, you should know that the number of slaves and subordinates that my Great Jin allows the major families to have, is according to the title, there are strict restrictions, although many families have hidden households, but today's public auction, no one can do anything, a family can buy dozens or hundreds of people, it is better not to hurt the harmony." Besides, if you really meet a strong and powerful person, it's not too late for everyone to bid again. ”

Huan Xuan hooked the corners of his mouth, did not speak again, Wang Xun on the side said in a low voice: "Huan Shizi, do you know, these families in Jiankang City do not have much vision for selecting warriors, in their opinion, taking advantage of the cheapness of this group of people, you can buy one for four thousand yuan, then buy one hundred and eighty people, you can take care of the family in peacetime, you can be incorporated into the army in wartime, and strive for military merit for the family, no matter how poor you are, you can also cultivate the land and cultivate the land, which is much better than the ordinary Han people who are ruined and sold into slavery." The Xie family took a fancy to this, so they used such a small favor to tie the hearts of these small and medium-sized families, so that they were willing to continue to support the next Northern Expedition. ”

Huan Xuan smiled slightly and looked at Wang Xun: "Black-headed duke, this time, do you want to pick a few fierce generals who can fight, and enrich your shogunate in the future?" ”
