Originally, it was a cloud of guests watching the ceremony, but by Lu Shi's words, he made people go to the empty field, and Lu Shi couldn't help but sigh that the level of his love scene was absolutely first-class.

Zhao Zi stood under the gantry crane, looking up at this huge object, and couldn't help but sigh, "Mr. Xiao can have such an achievement in such a short time, this is not only luck, it is indeed extraordinary." ”

Lu Shi smiled bitterly: "Actually, it is difficult to make a forest alone, with my own strength, I can only try to feed myself, which can only be done in the peaceful season of the world, according to the current situation, don't think about it." ”

Zhao Zi didn't bow his head, nor did he answer, just nodded lightly to show understanding.

"I have been able to do these things in this short period of time, in fact, it is still the power of many people, I just brought them together, and everyone struggled to survive in this troubled world, so they burst out this huge potential energy."

Hearing Lu Shi's explanation, Zhao Zi lowered his head for a long time and looked at Lu Shi sincerely: "Yes, don't let the wise man be buried in the wilderness, and don't let the traitor stand in the hall, this is what the superior should do." When he said this, he shook his head slightly, and his tone was full of depression. At the same time, he also expressed his evaluation of Lu Shi.

Regarding this Ming official's evaluation of himself, Lu Shi laughed, and for Zhao Zi, who was obviously close to him, Lu Shi did not eagerly solicit him.

Zhao Zi is talented, but talented people have a small temper, especially the scribes at this time, a proud body, can also be called a proud hair, are not easy to answer correctly, they pay attention to a good minister to choose a tree and perch, especially in the troubled times, more requirements for the Ming Lord, because, only the Ming Lord can survive in this troubled world, and finally succeed, let them really show their talents, in order to truly realize their ideal of governing the country and the country.

And for the people who are actually willing to take refuge, they still have to do everything possible to increase their worth, and those so-called masters want to take this opportunity to spread their thirsty virtues, and the two hit it off and made a good show vigorously.

These examples, there are Jiang Taigong Zhou Wen Wang, Zhuge Liang Liu Bei and so on, these are all famous big names, of course, there is also a Zuo Zongtang, but this belongs to the character who is too much, and he also took it at the beginning, but Hong Xiuquan was not used to his temper, there were no three invitations and four worships, he came if he loved, and he left if he loved to go, but this great god defected to the Manchu Qing Dynasty in a fit of anger, and he also fought with Hong Xiuquan, in order to - you looked down on me at the beginning, I will let you see my ability, let you regret it, think about it, It can also be regarded as a kind of revenge for the small belly chicken intestines.

Squinting his eyes, Lu Shi looked at Zhao Zi who was obsessed with the huge deterrent power of the gantry crane with his face up, and couldn't help but think evilly, I have a thatched hut shed, did I arrange for you to live first? And then I look at the thatched house again? And then listen to your nonsense?

In fact, Lu Shi's current thirst for talents has reached the point of no return, but there are very few people who want to choose their own shelter, mainly because they have a bad background - they were originally kind, but they are helpless to be a thief.

But, the problem is, even if you are a thief, but the time of birth is even worse, that is to say, "born" early, and now the uprisings in various places can also be said to be surging, but those who really want to overthrow the Ming Dynasty have not yet, at the same time, now, all the literati, as well as the common people, are all about the current sharp Chongzhen, holding the hope of Zhongxing Daming, it seems that Daming is in his hands, in the hands of Qingliu who is standing full of courts, and there are no traitors, can restore the former demeanor, therefore, there is no optimism about the profession of rebellion, Not to mention the joy to vote, even if you fish in troubled waters, there is no one.

Therefore, Lu Shi is not occupying the sky now, so he does not occupy people, and now, the people who are accepted by himself are desperate scribes, look at Chen Ce, look at Zhao Xing, Zheng Hao, Mr. Li, it can be imagined.

For this Zhao Zi, who was obviously inclined to himself, but made a seemingly detached appearance, Lu Shi didn't hesitate in his heart, should he stretch out his hand and make a gesture of asking for three times?

But thinking about it, he shook his head again, Zhao Zi's current position, the way it is now, is actually more beneficial to the base area, once Zhao Zi is put into the army, then announce the fall of Yichuan County, at the same time, the surrender of a county order, the storm in the court will definitely form a storm, absolutely make the face-loving emperor extremely angry, and for the north to extend, the east to Shanxi himself, there is no excuse to give the opposite Ming a perfunctory excuse, just let his base directly face the enemy, Storms and rains will be inevitable.

Even if you take a step back, even if the imperial court is unable to encircle and suppress itself for a while and give up Yichuan City, then the imperial court will send another county order that he does not know the root cause to make trouble for himself, which is also what Lu Shi does not want to see now, and it is also absolutely unfavorable to the most correct policy of encircling the city with the countryside. Silent development, reducing the enemy, and gaining time are the ways they should go.

"In this way, it's actually the best relationship." Lu Shi thought to himself.

Looking at the ceremonial square that had become empty, Lu Shi smiled and said to Zhao Zi, who was still obsessed with this gantry crane: "Old man, I think, let's go back, there will be no one here anymore." ”

Zhao Zi lowered his head and looked left and right, it was really the case, except for the shoes and socks all over the ground were rough coolies, there was nothing to see, so he nodded and said, "Yes, let's go back." Speaking of this, he looked at the sky again, and couldn't help laughing: "But it's almost noon, I think, let's have some snacks?" ”

Of course Lu Shi was willing, and he didn't know whether it should be under the command of King Chuang or the secretary of the county commander, so he hurriedly stepped forward and joked: "I saw a new time-honored haggis soup restaurant on the newly built street yesterday, why don't we go there and try it?" ”

Why does this newly opened time-honored brand sound so awkward? Lu Shi and Zhao Zi twisted their hair together and asked.

The bookstore was stunned for a moment, and immediately laughed, "Two gentlemen, this is not awkward, this newly opened haggis soup, but it is an old store that has been open for hundreds of years in Xi'an, is this considered a time-honored brand?" ”

"Yes, of course, it's a legitimately time-honored brand."

"But this current shopkeeper, in Xi'an, really apologized to those officials who ate and drank for nothing, like wolves and tigers, and couldn't afford to pay endless harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, if it weren't for the name of dozens of generations, he would have been closed down a long time ago."

Zhao Zi's expression darkened, this is the truth, now, the imperial court apportioned countless people, and the officials are even more inconsiderate, blindly meeting the above to keep their official positions, therefore, not only the peasants are desperate to become homeless, that is, in the market, small households are desperate, middle households are bankrupt, and even those who have no backing foundation are also on the verge of despair, and bankruptcy is just a matter of time.

"No, I heard that we have "good feng shui" here, there is no messy harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and there are no officials who eat and drink for nothing, so I took a family and ran here with an old plaque, and in this town, we sold a piece of the façade we just built to restore the family heirloom. Looking at King Chuang, who listened carefully, the secretary said even more proudly: "Not only this, but in fact, in other counties in the base area, there are already countless foreign businesses that have taken root here. ”

When Lu Shi heard this, of course he was happy, attracting investment, which was what he wanted to do but couldn't do in later generations, and now, he did it so easily, and he definitely felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

Lu Shi laughed, and said proudly to Zhao Zi: "You and I are thanks to those Xi'an officials, otherwise, we will eat the delicious taste of hundreds of years of time-honored brands, and we will have to go to Xi'an, this time it's okay, you can eat when you want, I thank those officials." ”

What else can Zhao Zi say? Only smiled bitterly in embarrassment, and walked with the bookstore to the market town with Lu Shi.

The new ferry market town has taken shape, and the original dilapidated houses, after being promised to be demolished by the intruding army, or after the money is compensated, or the original area is restored, which is not a happy move? Originally, not to mention the government, it was a pride with a bit of background to demolish here, that was not a word from others, and I had to hurry up and leave with my wife and children? Where is it still treated so politely? Didn't you see the people on the other side, who were bulldozed in vain every day and cried out in vain?

Walking on the streets that have become neat and regular, watching the businesses continue to open, the originally spacious streets are still filled with crowds of people, and there are constantly big cars blocked in the middle of the road.

Halfway all the way, Lu Shi, who was already sweating in stinky sweat, couldn't help but sigh and complain to Zhao Zi with satisfaction: "The original design of the street plan in the market, now it seems that it is still a small family, look, it is still narrow and small, this is not good, it has to be demolished." ”

At this sentence, the clerk who led the way in front was very happy, and immediately said: "King Chuang, where do you say to dismantle it, I will immediately gather people to start." As he spoke, he rolled his arms and rolled up his sleeves.

"King Chuang, hurry up and demolish it, or now, we people are surrounded by the people in the old town all day long, and we can't move at all, and we can't do anything."

When Lu Shi heard this, his heart was not good, and the forced demolition that Lu Shi had seen in the last century that tasted the sweetness was about to appear in this world.

Lu Shi immediately lowered his face, frowned and said solemnly: "You are so bold, you dare to disobey the rules and forcibly demolish?" Okay, let's stop drinking this mutton soup. Ignoring the big mouth, I don't know where I offended King Chuang's secretary's office, and instructed Zhang Xiao behind him: "Go, transfer a few prison sergeants, and we will now rectify some bastards who rely on forced demolition and want to be promoted and make a fortune." ”

Seeing this situation, Zhao Zi couldn't help nodding, of course, he absolutely agreed with Lu Shi's performance, the bastard officials who forcibly demolished the people's houses were rich and powerful, he had seen a lot, and he was also angry, but he didn't dare to take care of it, and he couldn't manage it, now it's okay, these bastards who forcibly demolished the people, Fan is under King Chuang, see what happened to these dog officials and bastards.

"The king misunderstood, the king misunderstood." At this time, the scrivener found that King Chuang had misunderstood, if it was really the prison sergeant arrived, then everything would be over, and the prison sergeant was the master that the six relatives did not recognize. And is to jump to the feet and shout.

Lu Shi frowned and stood still, and asked in a low voice: "Misunderstanding, why is it a misunderstanding, what is the misunderstanding?" ”

"King Chuang, we didn't demolish it, it was the people who begged us to demolish it all day long." The scrivener quickly explained what was going on.

Is there such a thing? Lu Shi didn't believe it, but looking at the clerk's anxious jumping feet in front of him, he still stood still, and said solemnly in a low voice: "I told the truth about it." Then he added: "Don't hide it, I will let Zhao Xing investigate this matter, and if there is a forced demolition, I will not spare it." ”
