Chapter 165 The Origin of the Monk's Dao

"Why? Could it be that Donglaihou does not allow traders to do business? ”

"It's not!"

The young passer-by was a little displeased, looked the monk and the two up and down, thought about it, and said solemnly: "I want to remind you that the marshal has now been canonized as the Duke of Lai Guo by the Holy Lord, and the marshal is very good to the people of our Donglai County, you must not speak ill of the marshal in the future!"

The Taoist was a little surprised, his face changed, and he hugged his fists at the young passerby and said solemnly: "It's a gaffe, and please don't be surprised!"

The young passer-by nodded, "You are outsiders, and those who don't know are not guilty!" But you have to pay more attention in the future, we Donglai people don't like others to say bad things about the marshal! ”

"Yes! Thank you for the reminder! The Taoist smiled and said, "Please also ask Brother Tai to continue to solve our doubts!" And when was your marshal made the title of Duke of Laiguo? ”

"The answers to the two questions you asked are actually pretty much the same!" Passers-by smiled and said, "Some time ago, the Holy Lord was besieged by the Turkic army in Yanmen City, and the Marshal led 20,000 soldiers of the Alliance Army to the Yanmen City Qin King to rescue the driver, and as a result, he made the first contribution to the rescue, and the Holy Lord named him the Duke of Laiguo!" ”

The young passer-by paused and looked in the direction of the garrison camp, "As for why there are no vendors doing business, because these vendors are in a hurry to go to the garrison camp to claim their cattle." When King Qin rescued him, the marshal led the soldiers of the Allied Army not only to make great achievements, but also to snatch hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep from the hands of the Turkic army! Now the soldiers of the Allied Army are distributing ploughing cattle outside the garrison camp, and as long as it is the people of Donglai County, each household can borrow a ploughing ox for free! ”

"I see!"

The Taoist suddenly realized, "However, what is the matter with this free loan, is it a free payment for every household?" ”

"Yes and no!" The young passer-by smiled and said, "Every family can claim one for free, but a contract must be signed to ensure that the first calf born by the ploughing ox will be returned to the allies if the ploughing cattle do not die accidentally, and then within five years, all the calves born by the ploughing cattle will be sold to the allies, and the allies will buy them at the market price!" ”

"That's pretty good, too! In other counties, an ordinary family may not be able to buy a calf with all their savings, but you can get it for free! It seems that your marshal is really good to you people of Donglai County! ”

"Yes! Since the establishment of the Allied Army, the life of our common people has been getting better day by day, and we are grateful to him from the bottom of our hearts and love him! I heard that this time, those military families can get four fat sheep for free, and each additional soldier can receive four more fat sheep! It's a pity that when the Allied Army was recruiting soldiers, my wife happened to be sick, and I had to take care of my wife at home, so I missed the day of enlistment! ”

The young passer-by looked at the direction of the Allied garrison camp in the city, and his eyes were full of envy and yearning!

Listening to the exclamation of the young passerby, the Taoist's expression moved, and he turned back to the monk and smiled: "Brother Zhang, why don't we also go to the scene of the cattle to have a look!"

"Good!" The monk did not hesitate and replied with a smile!

The Taoist clasped his fists at the young passer-by, and asked with a smile, "I wonder if Brother Tai can take us to see it?" ”

The young passer-by stared at the monk and the two up and down, and after a long while, he said, "Yes!" I'm about to claim a ploughing ox, and if you want to go, just follow me. But you must make sure that you do not speak ill of the marshal again! ”

"Good! We promise not to speak ill of your marshal again! ”

……

Soon, the monk and the two followed the young passers-by to the outside of the Allied garrison camp.

In a vacant field a hundred steps away from the garrison camp, there were people who had come to claim their cattle, and they lined up in more than ten columns, patiently waiting for the registration arrangements of the county guards, and whispered a few words to each other from time to time, but their faces were full of anxious and excited looks!

On the far left side of the clearing, there are several large fences, each of which is tied to a dense network of ploughing cattle, to say the least of which there are 20,000 or 30,000 heads. The registered people, with excitement and anticipation on their faces, are entering the fence one by one with their number plates, and they can choose the ploughing cattle!

"This Su Shang is really a character! He is worthy of being a person who does great things! Looking at the happy people in front of him, the monk sighed a little!

"Yes! This Su Shang is a person who really does great things! The Taoist also sighed, "First, I developed in secret with low-key forbearance, and now the time is ripe, and I do things in a high-profile manner, and I don't hesitate to spend a lot of money to sell the people and win people's hearts!" No wonder he was a poor commoner, and it only took a few years for him to become the Duke of Laiguo! ”

"Brother Wei, I have already made a decision! I'm going to stay and look for an opportunity to join the Allied Army, I heard that this Su Shang never looks at family background, only focuses on talent, which is just right for those of us who have no family background! Brother Wei, do you want to stay? ”

"Well, I haven't decided yet!" The Taoist hesitated a little and said, "I have to think about it again!" ”

"Could it be that Brother Wei is still ready to go to Wagangzhai to seek refuge in Zhai Rang?"

The Taoist hesitated for a moment, "I heard that Zhai Rang of Wagangzhai is also a leader who only values talent regardless of his background, at first I planned to go to Wagangzhai, but now I am a little hesitant!" ”

The monk pondered for a moment, "Brother Wei, to tell you the truth, I joined Wagangzhai at the end of the year before last, but two months ago, I quit!" ”

"Brother Zhang, why is this?"

"In the first two years, Zhai Rang really only focused on talent, did not look at family background, and could humbly accept advice! However, with the development and growth of Wagangzhai, he gradually became complacent, nepotism, no longer willing to listen to advice, and paid more and more attention to the family background of the generals. ”

The monk sighed and said, "I am an example! I was a general, with 3,000 brothers under my command, but since his nephew came, he has targeted me, either openly or covertly, and in the end, because I did not toast his nephew at the banquet, he transferred me to the patrol on the spot, and let his nephew take my place! ”

After speaking, the monk sighed again and did not speak again, his face was full of gloom!

The Taoist pondered for a while, "Since this is the case, then I will stay first!" Find a chance to meet Su Shang first! ”

At this moment, a general who looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old came over on horseback, followed by several fully equipped personal soldiers!

The young general jumped off his horse, hugged his fists and said with a smile: "I am Li Yixing of the Allied Army!" I don't know what to call the two? ”

Is the overlord of the late Sui Dynasty good-looking?
