Chapter 9 Li Ghost Meets Li Kui
Looking at what the other side is doing, it is not a bad person, it should be a farmer who deals with the land honestly.
In the face of survival, the bottom line of morality is always very low.
Qin Hao rushed to say before he started: "Several, the year of the catastrophe is all about living, it is not easy for everyone, let's discuss, how about a peaceful solution?" ”
"A peaceful settlement?"
Qin Hao said: "Brother, I have more than a dozen people here, and the weapons are better than yours, and I have a bow, even if you can win a real fight, you will definitely lose a lot, why bother losing both?" I don't think a few of them are bad people, so why don't you and I join forces and go to Luoyang to eat together, you are responsible for protecting us, and we use food as a reward, how about it? ”
The man on the opposite side was stunned, he couldn't imagine that there was such an operation, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and found that he couldn't find a reason to refuse.
They were also forced to make this decision when they were in a hurry, morality or something aside, just the bright big bow on the opposite side made them a little frightened, and they were not sure if they really fought hard, it was better than this.
The man who had just stood up pondered for a moment and said, "There are not only six of us in our village, but also more than 20 female dependents and more than 30 children, can you guarantee us food all the way to Luoyang?" ”
Qin Hao didn't think about it and said: "Yes, we can still buy it if we don't have enough food, and I have a way to earn it if the money is not enough, how about it?" If we have to fight, we will not be afraid of you. ”
Unexpectedly, the man actually knelt down for Qin Hao again, "Xiao Langjun Gaoyi, Liu Mou has thanked Lang Jun on behalf of all the elders and children of Liujia Village, and in the future, my Liu Xiaosan's life will be Lang Jun's, if there is really anything to Luo Yang, our six masters will die in front of you." ”
This shocked Qin Hao enough.
You must know that this is the Tang Dynasty, it is a feudal society, and keeping one's word is one of the basic social laws, especially the man in Guanzhong is a nail who spits and foams, and he will definitely do it if he says it.
The other five men actually did the same, and they all knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you Xiao Langjun for saving your life." ”
Qin Hao pretended to be majestic and nodded, but in fact, he had already blossomed, and ordered: "Since you still have a wife and children, come over and get food, call your family to eat a little, and leave together." ”
Da Niu secretly called Qin Hao aside and whispered: "Big brother, we don't have much food, and it's enough for us people to barely eat Luoyang, and if we share it with them, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on to half of the road." ”
Qin Hao comforted: "It's okay, it's better than fighting, otherwise even if you win, it will be a miserable victory, not to mention that we have a team of children, not an adult, walking on the road is really eye-catching, and you can save a lot of trouble with them, as for food, if there is a small town in front of you, you can buy a little, and by the way, see if you can buy a few more weapons for self-defense." ”
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
As soon as he spoke, the large army of Liujia Village arrived.
There are fifty or sixty fleeing teams in the whole village, but there are only six strong men, this is the status quo in Guanzhong after the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the men are all dead, and most of the people are women in charge, it is estimated that this is also the fundamental reason for the sharp increase in the status of women in the early Tang Dynasty.
Cooking soup cakes and eating, the two groups of people who were still nervous just now stirred the horse spoon in the cauldron, and they quickly became familiar with it, but Qin Hao frowned.
It's more stressful.
There is one thing I didn't tell Da Niu, in this year of famine, gold may not have much purchasing power, their few gold cakes, even if they all buy food, it may not be enough, not to mention that there will be more places to use money in the future, the court only allowed the victims to fend for themselves, there is no real strength, the gold leaf of the treasury has been given to the Turks, and the little money saved is also used to fight Liang Shidu.
Seemingly...... You have to think of a way to make money.
After eating the soup cake in a few bites, the children also have spirits, the adults in Liujia Village are not familiar with it for the time being, but the thirty or so children quickly mingle, these children are seven or eight years old to seventeen or eighteen years old, and they have met so many new friends, and soon turned into little monkeys who are chattering.
Qin Hao was eating soup cakes while thinking about ways to make money, and he had all kinds of time-traveling novels in his mind one by one, but after thinking about it for a long time, Teniang's stunned was useless.
Salt production? This thing was more strictly controlled in feudal society than the guns of later generations.
Sugar? Sugarcane was not introduced from Tianzhu until the last years of Zhenguan.
Alcohol and perfume?
If he is willing to study, he will not worry about the experiment, the high degree of wine is just a few steamed and a few brews, but Datang's management of wine making may not be much looser than salt, not to mention that the more high wine, the more waste of grain, if he dares to spend grain to make wine in this catastrophic year, it is not to make a fortune, but to find death.
It is estimated that even Li Shimin does not dare to make large-scale wine now.
What else is available?
As for glass production, soap, soap and even black and yellow gunpowder, Qin Hao, who was born in liberal arts, said that he was stunned.
Just when he was thinking hard about the way to make a fortune, a group of little brothers and sisters had already surrounded him, some brought and some from Liujia Village, and said in a big circle: "Big brother, big brother, we have to listen to the story of Sun Monkey." ”
Qin Hao was interrupted by their contemplation, and smiled slightly: "Okay, then the eldest brother will continue to tell you about Sun Monkey." ”
The story of Journey to the West has continued to be told since the father and mother were killed, but after the monkey was pressed under the Five Elements Mountain, it was full of the story of Tang Sanzang, so that these hairy children scratched their ears and cheeks anxiously.
This paragraph is very slow, because the author of Journey to the West doesn't know who it is, which dynasty and which generation, (Wu Chengen wrote Journey to the West is quite far-fetched), and he was stunned to throw a lot of historical celebrities into such a mythical story, Tang Taizong, Wei Zheng, Xiao Yu, Wei Chi Jingde, etc., these people are all alive, this is very embarrassing, he had to make up a dynasty to set up a void, which seriously delayed the speed, so for such a long time, just talked about Guanyin manifestation of the golden cicada.
As for Xuanzang, it is all replaced by Tang Sanzang, the so-called Sanzang, refers to proficient in the law Tibet, the scriptures, the Tibet, as long as the great monk can be called the Sanzang Master, not only belongs to Xuanzang.
"It is said that after the Sanzang Master was enlightened by Guanyin Bodhisattva, Sanzang returned to Hongfu Temple and said to the monks: I have made a great vow that if I do not take the true scriptures, I will fall into hell forever. Probably because of the king's favor, he had to be loyal to serve the country. It's really slim for me to go, and it's hard to determine whether I'm going to do it. Disciples, after I go, it may be three or two years, or five or seven years, but when I see the pine branches in the mountain gate facing east, I will come back; Otherwise, there will be no return. ”
The children listened with relish one by one, but after all, there was no monkey, and the interest was not particularly high, but they heard a loud voice like a bell suddenly coming from not far behind them: "Okay! ”
"This Sanzang Master really deserves to be a model of my Buddhism, and the little monk will follow the example of the ancients, and he will not return to the dynasty if he does not take the true scriptures."
Qin Hao was stunned for a moment, turned his head, but saw that it was a monk in rags, but although this monk was dressed in tatters, his face was as bright as jade, and there was a faint sense of solemnity, it looked difficult to say his age, he was in his twenties, he was in his thirties, and it was not impossible to be in his forties or fifties, and every move seemed to have a unique charm.
Qin Hao didn't dare to slack off, made a Buddhist salute, and said, "I don't know the master's name? ”
"Poor monk, Xuanzang."
