Chapter Seventy-Nine: I'm Young
For the future, Han Cheng has also thought about it these days.
In such an era, it is impossible to live your life behind closed doors, at least until you have a certain strength and status.
Come to think of it, I'm just getting started, and I'm getting into a lot of trouble.
From the small inner chief of the green finch to the big Jinyang Wang family, these people are like flies that smell blood, and they can't wait to come over to share the food, suppress it, and want to eat themselves even with their bones.
And himself, in the face of such a group of flies, there is no good way, before Li Jing comes, he can only threaten them with his life.
And this is still when they have something in their own hands that can threaten them.
Once the salt shortage passes, these people of the Wang family will no longer cast a mouse bogey on themselves, according to their status at this time, I am afraid that the greatest possibility is that in a tragic manner, they will desperately tear off two taels of meat from the Wang family, and they will also die, ending this unexpected crossing career.
And the fate of Han Xiao, Xiaoya, Luo Dawa, and Aunt Luo, how miserable it should become, you don't need to think about it to know.
He didn't want this to happen.
And if you want to change these and protect these relatives, the most fundamental thing is to improve your status and make yourself more powerful.
Let those who want to deal with themselves have some fear in their hearts, and they dare not act without scruples.
Only in this way, when I encounter a crisis in the future, I don't have to fight everything, including my life, to deal with it like now.
And Li Jing, the Cheng of Mayi County in front of him, and the method of making salt that he now has in his hands, is the way and bargaining chip that can improve his status.
It is precisely because of this that he specially left Luo Shixin behind and asked him to smash these salt ores in front of Li Jing.
For a fierce general like Luo Shixin, joining the army is undoubtedly the best choice.
Moreover, according to the history he knows, for a long time in the future, the military will have an extremely broad stage.
And Han Cheng himself will no longer be just nested in this small Qingque Village.
He doesn't know exactly what he can do in the future, but as long as he works hard, the result will not be too bad.
"Zenis!"
Looking at the stone that had been turned into powder in a short time under Luo Shixin's constantly dancing sledgehammer, and then at Luo Shixin, who was basically not panting, Li Jing couldn't help but praise loudly.
"Is a strong man willing to join the army and serve the country?"
Even Li Jing, who had seen a lot of soldiers and horses, was also happy to see the hunt at this time, and couldn't help but personally throw an olive branch to Luo Shixin.
"Huh? I, I just want to follow Brother Cheng, and I will go wherever Brother Cheng goes. ”
Luo Shixin was a little confused by Li Jing's sudden invitation, touched his head with his hand, and said with some confusion.
Follow Brother Cheng to eat a full meal, the food is still delicious, and you can also pull weeds with Xiaoya to feed the rabbits, my mother also said that I want to follow Brother Cheng well, listen to Brother Cheng'er's words, and protect Brother Cheng, but now this big official wants to join the army by himself, Luo Shixin is really unwilling.
"I'm still young, I'm only twelve years old, and I can't join the army."
Stupid people also have stupid methods, and now that Li Jing said this, he was in a hurry, and Luo Shixin also came up with a reason to refuse.
Looking at the guy in front of him who was about the same height as himself and seemed to be tall and big, saying that he was still young and only twelve years old, Li Jing only felt that his brain was a little confused.
Whose twelve-year-old looks like this?
At the same time, I was more happy, I was only twelve years old to have such a big man, with such strength, if it was a few years later, after opening up, what would it be?
Under his own rule, this is the seedling of an excellent fierce general!
Unexpectedly, this small village actually has a large number of talents, first there are young righteous people who have dedicated enough heirlooms to make salt, and there are excellent fierce generals Miaozi living here, if it is not for his personal experience, Li Jing is a little hard to believe.
"Since the little strong man is still young and unwilling to leave home, then let this matter go first, and wait for the little strong man to grow a few years old, and then come to serve in the army."
At present, it is better to hurry up and make salt, and it is the most important thing to solve the salt shortage in this Mayi, after hearing Luo Shixin say that he is still young, Li Jing thought for a while and said.
And it is indeed a bit abrupt to let this little strong man join the army directly, leaving these gaps in the middle for him to consider, and it is good to be prepared in my heart.
Seeing this, Han Cheng was not disappointed, and suddenly asked Luo Shixin to join the army, and he did not make such preparations.
Now this result is also very good, with the relationship of the salt mine, Luo Shixin showed off in front of Li Jing again today, which left a deep impression on him, so when the time comes, it will naturally become smooth.
Moreover, with the attention of this big man, it is difficult for Luo Shixin not to stand out in the army.
During this time, I can also do some other things, at least to explain these things clearly to Luo Shixin.
Therefore, he didn't say much, but together with Han Xiao and Aunt Luo, he put the stone powder smashed by Luo Shixin into the clay pot for filtration.
Li Jing followed behind and stared wide-eyed, for fear of missing any detail.
Luo Shixin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the officer no longer mentioned letting him join the army.
Then he quickly put down the hammer in his hand, and carried firewood from the yard to the kitchen stove, and waited for a while, so that the little girl could light the fire.
Under the busyness of Han Cheng and Han Xiao's Aunt Luo, the extremely turbid water at the beginning gradually became clean, and Li Jing and Uncle Liu, who watched such a scene, couldn't help but widen their eyes.
The little girl who had been watching the situation here saw that the water had become clear, and she didn't need to be explained, so she ran all the way to the stove with her little short legs, and started to burn the fire with flint.
The filtered water is poured into the clay pot and boiled over a high fire, and after a while, white gas rises.
"Jun Cheng, you can get green salt by boiling this water dry, it will take some time, the kitchen is too hot, Jun Cheng might as well rest outside for a while."
In early summer, the weather is already relatively hot, and it is close to noon, and the kitchen is still boiling salt, and the temperature is even higher.
Han Cheng turned his head and saw sweat soaking out of Li Jing's forehead, so he said this with a smile.
Li Jing shook his head firmly: "It's okay, it's just a little heat, I can still bear it." ”
Compared to this solution to the salt shortage in Mayi County, this heat is really nothing.
Although Li Jing knew that at this point, according to the method that this little friend said, Qingyan would be successful, but when it came to the major events of the entire county, he was still reluctant to leave, and he wanted to see this miracle with his own eyes, and he didn't want to miss any detail.
Han Cheng saw that Li Jing was willing to be heated here, so he didn't say much, and drove the little girl to play in the shade of the tree in the yard, while he squatted on the stove and added firewood inside.
