Chapter 62: Treasure Hunting (Asking for Recommendation, Asking for Collection)

Out of the county seat, the two of them returned to their hearts like arrows, let go of the mount under their feet and ran violently, when they were about to get out of the Longmen realm, they saw that it was getting late, and the two walked to the crossroads, and a big town appeared in front of them.

There were a few restaurants on the side of the road, and there were sheds outside, and several tables were built with stones in the sheds as dining tables, and the men shouted to the guests.

After the two came down, they walked into the shed, and the guy saw the two of them riding cattle in, and he knew that they were rich people by looking at their behavior, so they ran over to greet him diligently, Xiao Zheng looked at a few black coarse porcelain bowls on the table and frowned, Xiao Hai knew that this brother loved to be clean, so he took out two big coins and slapped them into the guy's hand, and after a while, the guy changed the two of them with a smile on his face.

While the two were waiting for the meal, Xiao Zheng saw a team of several farmers passing by on the road, each carrying a basket of coal, and when they arrived at the shed, they put the basket on the ground, and then went to the familiar shed to eat.

waved his hand at the guy, called over and asked why there were so many people carrying coal, and the guy said with a smiling face: "Two masters, you don't know, the quality of this charcoal in the villain's hometown is very good, and there is no smoke when it is used for fire, so it is used for cooking in several nearby villages." The rich men in the county town also often come to this town to buy this kind of charcoal and burn it at home. Isn't it almost cold, and now there are more and more people buying coal, and some farmers have no farm work to do, so they carry this coal out of the mine and sell it in the town for hard money. You two just disliked that the bowl in the shop was black, but in fact these people who carry coal often use it, and it is all because these poor people are doing this", said the man, and glanced with disgust at the farmer who was sitting at the other table eating.

Ignoring the guy anymore, and waiting for the meal to be served, Xiao Hai looked outside and was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Good man!" Xiao Zheng, who was facing Xiao Hai, saw his expression, and also turned his head to look outside the shed, only to see a few men carrying charcoal walking outside, one of the men with a basket of charcoal on his back was obviously several times larger than the others, and it was estimated that the basket with charcoal was about five or six hundred catties, no wonder Xiao Hai was amazed.

The strong man walked into the shed after putting the basket away, and saw that the other platforms were already full of people, only Xiao Zheng and the two of them still had empty space, so they sat with Xiao Zheng and the two, Xiao Zheng looked at the young man who was two or three years younger than himself, taller than Xiao Hai, his face was blackened by charcoal, but his eyes were very attentive, his arms were slender, and he gave people the feeling of a cheetah ambushing between actions.

After the young man sat down, he said hello to the villagers he knew a few times, and after looking up at the dress of Xiao Zheng and the two, he may feel that the dress is too different from the two, and he smiled at the two of them with some shame, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, which made people feel very good.

When the guy saw him, he didn't wait for instructions, and directly brought him a big pot full of steamed rice and put it on the table. The man didn't say anything, took out a packet of salted radishes from his bosom and ate it with small rice. Xiao Hai was originally born in the army, and he has always liked the powerful man, seeing this person's such a bold way of eating, he suddenly became interested, and pushed a plate of mutton on his side and pushed it in front of the man and said: "Little brother, you're welcome, meeting is fate, brother, I admire your strength very much, this mutton is for you to eat."

The young man looked at Xiao Hai, swallowed his meal and said, "Then thank you big brother", as he spoke, he picked up the plate and pulled the mutton directly to the small rice and devoured it, and when the young man ate for a while, Xiao Hai asked the young man: "Little brother, where is the fairy town?" The young man smiled and said to Xiao Hai: "My surname is Xue Mingli, the word Rengui, my home is not far from here, the town in front of me is called Liulin Town, and I am a person from Xiucun two miles south of the town."

Xiao Hai said to Xue Rengui: "Little brother is so strong, if you go to join the army, it will be a matter of time before you make a contribution." Xue Rengui said while eating: "The little brother also has this idea, but he has no way."

"Man, bring all the delicious food in your store to this brother to eat, I'll give the money out, hurry up!" Xiao Zheng suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and shouted to the guys in the store. The one who opened the restaurant was afraid that the pot-bellied man would not succeed, and these two looked rich.

The man answered loudly, turned around and ran to the back kitchen, and after a while, three large plates of mutton, a few plates of pickled vegetables and a large pot of white rice were served on the table. Xiao Zheng said to Xue Rengui: "Brother Xue, I am a few years older than you, these dishes are just for you, don't be polite, the three of us have a fate today, you let go and eat."

Xue Rengui thanked him first, and asked the guy to find a clean lotus leaf and wrap some rice and mutton, saying that it was for his mother-in-law. Then Xue Rengui shook off his cheeks and began to eat, and it didn't take long for all the food on the table to be swept away, and Xiao Hai's eyes stood up. After eating, he drank two bowls of water and burped a few times, and was a little embarrassed after seeing Xiao Hai's expression, and said that he had too much food, and he had not eaten a full meal since he went down the mountain to learn art.

Xiao Zheng was also secretly surprised in his heart, seeing that more than a dozen people's food had entered this guy's stomach, but this guy didn't see much bulge in his abdomen, and he didn't know where the meal went. I knew that this guy could eat, but I didn't expect this guy to be so edible.

Xiao Zheng saw that Xue Rengui was a little embarrassed and smiled: "It's okay, Gu Youlian can still eat rice at sixty years, and now I believe it, you are as strong as a fighter, and you can't eat more." Seeing that Xue Rengui was full, Xiao Zheng asked: "Brother Xue, my family lives in Yushan County, near Chang'an City, and there is a little surplus wealth at home, and now I am going to find a caretaker, if you are interested, say that the money is two times a month, you can eat as much as you want, don't need money, you just need to help me look at the home, if you want, go with me, and you come and go freely, you can leave at any time if you don't want to do it, I will never stop you, we can make a note."

Xiao Hai glanced at Xiao Zheng and just wanted to speak, but Xiao Zheng kicked him under the stage. Xue Rengui thought for a while and said, "If that's the case, I'll go, but I'll go back and bring my wife first, and go back to clean up the house." "Okay, then it's a word," Xiao Zheng said.

After paying for the meal, Xiao Zheng took out a piece of silver cake from his coat and handed it to Xue Rengui and said, "This is to give you two months' wages first, and the rest to subsidize your loss of moving." After seeing it, the surrounding villagers all said that Xue Rengui had a good life and met a nobleman.

The three of them went out, Xiao Zheng took the horse that Xiao Hai rode again, handed it to Xue Rengui and hurried back to the village to clean up his house, and made an appointment to meet him at the inn in Liulin Town tomorrow morning, and when Xue Rengui rode away, Xiao Hai asked Xiao Zheng why he valued Xue Rengui so much, Xiao Zheng smiled and said to him: "Brother Xiao, I have wronged you for a few miles, and you will know why your brother did this later."

Early the next morning, Xue Rengui came to the inn, and Xiao Zheng saw a woman with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and at first glance it was Xue Rengui's wife Liu. It's just that the horse carrying a big bow and a burden on the back is very eye-catching, Xiao Hai was amazed when he saw this bow that was nearly four feet long.

Xue Rengui was a little ashamed to say that he was a descendant of Xue Andu, a famous general of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the ancestors of all dynasties had served as officials in previous dynasties. Later, the family fell in the middle of the road, and after he went down the mountain last year to learn art, he usually farmed because of his poor family background, and carried charcoal for his business in his spare time, and the armor in the bow and burden was passed down by the ancestors. Xiao Hai casually asked how many stones the bow was, Xue Rengui said it was seven stones, Xiao Hai stuck out his tongue and then stopped talking.

After greetings, Xiao Zheng let Xue Rengui have a full meal, let the Liu family ride a horse, and Xiao Hai and Xue Rengui set off on foot. Originally, Liu wanted to follow on foot, but Xiao Hai said that he would let a woman ride a horse on foot and couldn't afford to lose that person, but Liu saw Xiao Hai insisting, and under Xiao Zheng's persuasion, he rode on a horse and followed.

After only one day, Liu's vomited twice, Xue Rengui and Xiao Hai thought that Liu's was not suitable for long-distance travel, Xiao Zheng congratulated Xue Rengui on being a father after Liu's pulse, this time Xue Rengui was very happy, the next day to a big county, Xiao Zheng paid for a set of carriages, put the car on the cushion comfortably let Liu's sit in, and went to buy medicine to nourish the fetus and nourish qi and blood for Liu's tonic, this time Xue Rengui was a little more grateful, afraid of moving Liu's fetal gas, the two accompanied Xue Rengui to drive the carriage slowly.

Because there were two more people on the way back, he was not alone in talking and laughing along the way, Xiao Hai told Xue Rengui about his experience in the army, which made Xue Rengui very envious, and said that he only sighed that he had no chance to join the army. Xiao Zheng also consciously instilled military knowledge in Xue Rengui, and changed the military theory summarized by later generations to chat with two people, which made Xue Rengui greatly impressed after hearing Xiao Zheng's theory, and said that if Xiao Zheng was born, Zhang Liang of the Han Dynasty would be nothing more than that, and he felt more and more that this owner did not recognize it in vain.

Xiao Zheng also said to Xue Rengui: "Brother Xue, don't be in a hurry to go to the army at this time, now that the Tang Dynasty has been decided, there will be a chance for you to make a name for yourself in the future, this iron still needs to be strong, you need to experience it slowly now, sooner or later you will be famous in the world."

Sometimes a few people walk to the field road, see some pheasants and hares in the woods on the side of the road, Xue Rengui's arrow strings are not in vain, he may also want to prove to his owner that the salary of the next two times a month is not in vain, and the beasts that were shot are all shot by arrows in the eye, Xiao Hai saw it and shouted that Xue Rengui was the reincarnation of Hou Yi, and when he looked at Xiao Zheng, he secretly gave him a thumbs up, not to mention that such a nursing home is worth two times a month, twenty times!

After walking for half a month, he arrived at Li Zhuang first, and Xiao Hai went home directly because of Xue Rengui's gold medal nursing home. With Xue Rengui and his wife, seeing that Shenhe Bay was close in front of him, he was in a very comfortable mood when he picked such a baby, so he rode on the five flowers and sang loudly: "A big river leads to my house, and my house is ...... under the green mountains."
