The so-called old administrative officer, who was the older of Lu Shi's first batch of students, was now teaching much older students mathematics, that is, how to use simple bookkeeping methods to manage the money, food, and taxes of the place where he was about to work.

These trainees, of different ages, were selected from nearly one million people in the base areas, including children, young people, and elderly people, all of whom were literate and were being trained in the policies of the base areas.

The base area is developing too fast, which is what everyone is happy to see, but it is also a headache for everyone, after all, a place is easy to occupy, and that is the result of the iron-blooded brothers.

However, occupying it does not mean that it will really be digested, and it is an unbreakable truth that martial arts will govern the country under the heavens, but what is really lacking in the base areas is literati, especially those who know how to understand Lu Shi's strategy of governing the country.

For thousands of years, the scholars who were educated by Confucianism in the womb of the mother, the six arts of the original sages, have been taken out of context and only left the study of the scriptures and meanings that imprison the thoughts, and abandoned the other essences, and now the scholars, their ideals, are just to be a nerd who guides the country and exalts the words, they are familiar with poetry and songs, and are familiar with quoting scriptures and classics, but they really don't know anything about other six arts of governing the country and saving the country, especially arithmetic, law, and water conservancy and agriculture, mainly disdainful. Otherwise, every county order will have to hire a group of full-time masters.

In fact, it is really hard to imagine that if a guy who can only write poems and songs, but does not know anything about the population, money and food of a place, to manage a place, it is either fooled by the master and the officials, or he is deceived and surrounded by the local gentry, how can such a bureaucrat be used?

However, now, even those scribes who quote scriptures and talk about empty words, even if Lu Shi himself wants to recruit them, they are completely selfless by the Confucian concept of all inferiority, only the concept of high reading, and they have completely forgotten the two words behind this sentence - patriotism.

Although they ate the grain of the base area and cultivated the land allocated to them by the base area, they still scolded the intruding army in the open and in the dark, because in any case, the invading army was a thief who opposed the so-called orthodox emperor.

Looking at the righteous and awe-inspiring guys, sometimes Lu Shi is also very disdainful, since he is so iron-clad, why don't he learn from Boyi Shuqi and escape into Shouyang Mountain and not eat Zhou Su? Shouyang Mountain, not far from here, Lu Shi sometimes thinks with bad taste, if there is really such an iron-clad scribe, then should he invite three or four times, do a good show, and leave a good story in history?

It's a pity that such an opportunity has never been, at least not now, which sometimes disappoints Lu Shi.

Since there is no Boyi Shuqi, then we must listen to the call of the government of the base area.

Okay, since you still eat Zhou Su, then I will use Zhou Su to buy you, in fact, Lu Shi firmly believes in one sentence, you are not used by me because I don't give you enough, as long as I give enough, you will definitely listen to me.

So, when the talents in the base area were at their most nervous, Chen Ce and the third uncle no longer hesitated, and offered quite attractive benefits, so that the literati who were now sitting under the sun joined the thief ship.

Loyal? After the brainwashing there should be, if not? Don't be afraid, hiding behind him, Zhao Xing and his sergeant's knives are sharpening quickly, and at this time, he does not hesitate to kill a batch to set an example.

When Lu Shi thought of this, he seemed to see that half of the person who was sitting on the ground sweating and recording had no head, this scene was very strange, but Lu Shi was not the slightest bit shocked.

His heart began to become numb and indifferent in the blood and fire again and again, which made Lu Shi very scared, afraid that he was really lost, but this change was recognized and joyed by all the brothers.

Indifference and iron blood are the basis for surviving in this troubled world, since in order to survive, then indifference and iron blood.

However, now Lu Shi is not in the mood to be iron-blooded, because there are more critical, and it is also a matter of life and death, that he needs to deal with.

The meals are still simple, the wine is very little, the base is dry, the vegetables, this time there is really no rabbit meat that makes everyone sick, some are just wild vegetables in the field, temporarily dug up.

Wild vegetables were originally a life-saving rarity, and everyone ate them disgusting at that time, but with the improvement of food for more than a year, now, when they appear on the table again, they have become a flavor and a wild taste.

It's really a time shift, and circumstances change.

Lu Shi enthusiastically let the brothers take their seats, but the third aunt and Chunlan hid out this time exceptionally, and the third uncle sat on the top.

As the host, Lu Shi poured the big bowl in front of each brother full of wine, and took the initiative to pour it for himself, raised it, and was silent for a long time, speechless.

The third uncle smiled: "What? Is it so estranged from the brothers who lived and died together in the past? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked and stood up one after another, holding the wine bowl but not knowing what to say.

After the silence, after suffocating the silence of the dead, Guo Tianxing suddenly laughed, drank a bowl of spirits to himself, and did not wipe the wine stains dripping from the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "I know the reason for this meal." Then he looked around with the empty bowl, looked at this group of brothers, and said in a deep voice: "Today, I will say it for King Chuang, in fact, I also feel that our brothers who originally lived and died together are now all born." ”

Lu Shi saw Tianxing take on the lead for himself again, and he couldn't help but feel really warm in his heart, in fact, the most trustworthy person is still the brother of this hero.

Putting down the wine he hadn't drunk, looking at the brothers with dull and embarrassed faces, Lu Shizhan smiled: "Sit down, sit down, let's have a good chat." ”

The others looked at each other, and then, like Lu Shi, put down the bowl full of wine, sat down silently, and all of them became wood carving clay sculptures, and they were all restrained or restrained.

"When did this change?" Lu Shi asked everyone, but it was more like asking himself, "Yes, it started when we accepted Huluyu." ”

Wu Tao hurriedly stood up in fear, arched his hands, and was about to confess, Lu Shi shook his hand and said with a smile: "You don't have to explain, I know." ”

Wu Tao opened his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound, and then, with a light sigh, sat down silently, picked up the wine bowl, and took a sip gently, but he couldn't taste it at all.

"Actually, I know everyone's thoughts, and from the bottom of our hearts, we want to form a group and achieve our ultimate goal in this troubled world, right?"

Nodding silently.

"However, with the prosperity of our cause, that goal is no longer out of reach, so the closer we get, the more we remind you brothers of all the dirty allusions in history. Some people even think that it's the master, and the tail can't be lost or something, anyway. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present, including the third uncle, began to be sincerely frightened, and the sitting body writhed uneasily.

Lu Shi stood up, lowered his head, walked around on the ground silently, and whispered his experience: "I was alone, let this thief play tricks on me, and left me in this troubled world, up and down, without a trace of it, hungry and cold, competing with wild dogs for food, in order to live, I did not hesitate to eat the wild dogs that had just eaten people, at that time, I was full of thoughts to live, to live." ”

All the people listened to Lu Shi's experience before arriving at Woniu Mountain for the first time, their words and expressions were empathetic, and their eyes followed Lu Shi's lonely and lonely figure.

"I thought, fighting, go to the south, although it is not necessarily good, but at least it is not cold, at least there is a chance, I don't want to participate in this troubled world, I also know my ability, and I can't change anything of the power, I just want to go to the south, avoid this famine, avoid this **, if God still takes care of me, a lonely person, can give me a chance, let me be a rich man, avoid the current and future wars, marry a wife and have children, and look at this history coldly and still move forward, let this history, all of this has nothing to do with me. ”

Stand still, raise your face, and let the tears of pain linger in your eyes, not slipping down. After a long time, I calmed down and continued to say slowly: "God favors, just when I was desperate, I met my brother and sister-in-law of the Zhang family, which made me change my mind, and I used my ridiculous little common sense to change the situation of my brother and sister-in-law's family who treated me like relatives, but not only did I fail to change, but I pushed them into the abyss. Speaking of which, Lu Shi was already heartbroken and in pain.

"No, no, uncle, it's this court, it's the dog landlord, so we have no way out." Zhang Xiao rushed up, hugged Lu Shi tightly, threw himself into his arms, choked and cried, and the little girl who didn't know when she came in also gently pulled the corner of his robe.

lowered his head and looked at the two of them, a touch of warmth and guilt were intertwined on his face, and his heart was circling.

Gently patted Xiaoya's little head, smiled lovingly, and then continued: "This is the earth-shattering change in the future, I have come to this day, at the beginning, where did I have any grand plans, and the ambition to be the king and hegemon, it was all forced by things to get to today, fortunately." Lu Shi's eyes flashed with strong family affection, and the brothers looked at it one by one: "I am glad that I met Guo Tianxing who is heart-to-heart, I met Cao Meng, who is upright and selfless, I met Geng Kui, who is righteous and mighty, I met Chen Ce who treats him sincerely, I met Zhao Xing, who is honest and honest for the people, I met the third uncle who treats me like a parent, and I meet a group of brothers in life and death." ”

Every word of Lu Shi shocked the brothers present, and only then did they really understand Lu Shi and their king.

"Because of you, I have to continue to move forward with all my strength, for fear that if I make a wrong step, I will lose you, my relatives and brothers. Because, if I lose you, then I will no longer have a loved one in this world who cares about me, cares for me, and supports me. "At this point, it is already a leak of true feelings, and there is no half-point falsification.

This true affection completely touched everyone.

"Who's far? Who's closer? Where is the intimacy? Where else is there any bullshit to cover the master? Where else is there any bullshit on top? There was no excitement, and the tone was still peaceful, but in this peace, it was sincerity and dependence.

"We are brothers, all of us are my own brothers, let's give up our factions, let's give up our prudence, take care of each other, and finish this together, we don't want to do anything at all, take the fathers who follow us, and give them a world they want, okay?"
