Chapter 5 Recruitment of Guards
Cai Yong left early the next morning, leaving in a hurry, although this time with the help of the Wei family, he was exempted from exile, but according to the law, he had to go to Luoyang first to thank the Son of Heaven, and then return to his hometown to farm, and he had been delayed for some time in Hanoi, so Cai Yong left in a hurry.
"Childe, what did you talk to Cai Weng about just now?" Uncle Liang looked at Ye Zhao with some curiosity, the two of them retreated left and right, and talked for a quarter of an hour before saying goodbye, as an old man who has served the Ye family for three generations, Ye Zhao's grandfather has been in charge of the Ye family since the beginning, and Uncle Liang is even more important than Ye Zhao for the re-emergence of the Ye family.
"The matter of the outstanding." Ye Zhao shook his head, since he said it from the left and right, naturally he couldn't talk about it to others, even Uncle Liang.
"Childe." The maid Xin'er trotted to the two of them and gave Ye Zhao a land deed.
"What is this?" Ye Zhao looked at Xin'er suspiciously, puzzled.
"It's the title deed sent by the Zhao family." Xin'er said: "The son was not at home just now, so Xin'er brought the title deed over." ”
"Title deeds?" Ye Zhao opened the title deed and looked at it, Uncle Liang frowned and said, "This is the title deed that we mortgaged to the Zhao family before, what does it mean to send it back now?" Could it be that they are going to kill everything and take our shop? ”
Ye Zhao shook his head, took the land deed back into his arms, and thought for a while: "Later, I will send that piece of glass from the Western Regions to the Zhao Mansion, I heard that the old man of the Zhao family is very greedy for this piece of glass." ”
"Childe, this ...... But isn't it ...... to give away the master's favorite thing like this," Uncle Liang frowned.
"Come and don't be rude, Old Man Zhao is willing to let us go, and we can't be stingy." Ye Zhao said with a smile, this is a signal of goodwill from these gentry in the city, before the Ye family's property, Wei Xian took advantage of his position to unite the gentry in the city to seize it, and now the property is returned to the original owner, it can be regarded as a signal that these people are willing to shake hands with Ye again, and the real benefit of yesterday's court is not the physical objects in front of them, but the connections.
When the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, Ye Zhao didn't know, his impression of this era had long been blurred with the passage of time, but as long as he knew the general direction, it was enough.
It is impossible for the appointment of the imperial court to come down too quickly, even if Cai Yong's face is there, Ye Zhao estimates that there will be no one or two months, I am afraid that I will not be able to wait for the news, and the next few days will be calm, and even Wei Xian seems to really realize his mistakes, he is quite honest during this time, and he has not troubled the Ye family anymore, and he is also very cooperative with some of the Ye family's requirements.
Ye Zhao moved to the manor outside the city the next day, although the place where he was about to take office was uncertain, but it would definitely not be in Hanoi, but Ye Zhao did not plan to give up the property in Hanoi, in addition to visiting a few gentry in the past few days, Ye Zhao spent almost all his time recovering his body.
This body is too weak, you must know that in the previous life in the environment of the last days, as the master of one party, in addition to strategizing, he must also have strong strength, ten years of exploration and later gathered a lot of talents, Ye Zhao gathered more than a dozen top talents in his previous life to study a set of practical plans to improve the quality of the human body.
The cooperation of his own exercise, food and medicine can tap the potential of human beings to the extreme, but unfortunately, this set of plans was sold before he could be promoted, and he came to this time and space, but as a participant in the whole process, Ye Zhao was very clear about the whole process, but in his previous life, his body had been fighting for many years, leaving a lot of dark wounds, and it was no longer suitable for these trainings, but the body in this life, although weak, was extremely well maintained, and it was just right to use the genetic enhancement plan in his previous life on himself.
And this era has incomparable advantages in the previous life, many in the previous life is a very precious medicinal materials, in this era not to say bad streets, but it is absolutely not related to precious, but unfortunately, the industrial level of this era is limited, can not directly act on the body through injection, can only be taken orally, such a result will be much slower than direct injection, but the side effects will be less.
According to Ye Zhao's estimate, this plan will take about one to three years, after all, the experimental subjects in the previous life are basically completed by injection, and the cycle is only three months, and the oral cycle of one to three years is estimated by those professionals, and no trials have been really conducted, so the margin of error is very large.
However, without the external environment of the end of the world, the current life is still quite easy for Ye Zhao, he doesn't have to worry about it every day, and he doesn't have to worry about where to collect materials, how to maintain the virtuous circle of the base city, as for life, although many things are very primitive, but in the most difficult time in his previous life, Ye Zhao even gnawed on the bark and grass roots, and he was quite satisfied with the current living environment.
In the eyes of the few remaining people in the Ye family, Ye Zhao has become a little weird since he woke up, not only his thinking is no longer as old-fashioned as before, but his behavior is also very different from the past, the most important thing is that in the past, Ye Zhao will not practice martial arts at all, and the poor literature and rich martial arts will only appear after the emergence of printing technology and the cost of learning will be greatly reduced. You will find some very interesting things, such as the top strategists are basically from the great family, there are many poor strategists, but there are very few who can reach the top level, and these cold strategists are also inextricably linked with the family.
However, the top families, but there are few excellent generals or commanders, on the contrary, some wealthy families are more likely to appear excellent commanders and good generals, as for the real from the bottom, there may be top generals, but it is difficult to appear an excellent commander or strategist and a general who can command thousands of troops.
This is Ye Zhao's training these days, studying the law summarized by the history of the Han Dynasty, of course, it is not idle and boring, only from these superficial data, the later the Han Dynasty, the more uneven the distribution of talents, the proportion of talents at the bottom is gradually shrinking or even disappearing, and the difference between the family and the wealthy family has also begun to appear, and this difference can almost be said to be solidified now, and the class is born.
The solidification of the class is often the beginning of the demise of a dynasty, the subversion of the dynasty, not so much the people at the bottom of the oppression, but rather a game and reshuffle between the upper society, although China has a history of five thousand years, but if carefully divided, from the pre-Qin to the last Qing Dynasty, if the number of dynasties is a lot, but if you carefully analyze, in fact, this period of time, Chinese civilization is actually in a cycle of constant reincarnation, the change of dynasties has not been able to promote the progress of the times, There were even many times when there was a regression, and it was not until the Western powers entered China that this strange circle was terminated.
The family of the world, it is really true, every era has the characteristics of each era, and in this era, the family has formed a circle of cultural monopoly, they have mastered the top talents, and the rising channels left to the bottom are shrinking, and the shrinking of this channel will gradually give rise to resentment in the hearts of the people at the bottom, that is, the so-called public grievances, when the grievances reach a certain level, once they break out, that is, the era of dynasty change is coming.
It's not difficult to break it, printing itself is not something that requires too much skill, but at the moment, Ye Zhao is not ready to break it, because he is now a member of this circle, no matter what he wants to do in the future, now this identity, in the early stage, is only good for himself, and the bigger the step, the greater the backlash, the forerunner, usually does not end well, Ye Zhao does not plan to be this pioneer, or rather, he is not ready to do it himself.
As for the future...... Now Ye Zhao has not fully planned his future, it is a good thing to have foresight, but if you look too far, it is easy to ignore the present, at the moment, it is most important to accumulate strength first, this is not only he is doing this, many people are doing it.
It's just that he sees the future direction more clearly than others, and he has a stronger purpose.
"Childe, you've brought all the people you're looking for." In the manor outside the Ye family's city, Uncle Liang walked forward with more than a dozen strong men with broad shoulders and round waists, and bowed to Ye Zhao.
The Ye family has recently been recruiting guards to prepare for Ye Zhao's upcoming debut, although the Ye family is now in decline, but how to say that it is also a family, these years, the imperial court has paid more and more taxes, how to say that the Ye family is also a family, there are still many people who can eat with the mix, and it is not difficult to recruit guards.
"Everyone, this is my Ye family's son, Ye Zhao." Uncle Liang looked at the dozen people behind him and smiled.
"I'll see Ye Gongzi later." More than a dozen strong men bowed their hands in unison.
"Well, there's no need to be polite." Ye Zhao stood up, stepped forward, and looked at these strong men carefully.
"Childe, these people are all well-known rangers in my Hanoi." Uncle Liang followed Ye Zhao's side.
The so-called ranger is just a general term, under this title, the three religions and nine streams are all-encompassing, such as Hu Laosan, who was killed by Ye Zhao before he came to make trouble, is to call himself a ranger, in this group, the scoundrels account for the majority, and the rest are basically bandits and grass cowards who occupy the mountain as the king, of course, there are also some willful and reckless second generations who have learned a hand of martial arts and wandered around to fight unevenly, but this kind of person is generally only a minority.
"Since Uncle Liang said that you are my famous ranger in Hanoi, I think you will have some amazing skills, can you show Ye Mou?" Ye Zhao beckoned, and two family members walked up carrying a box.
"Open." Under the puzzled eyes of the strong men, the two guards opened the box, only to see that the box was full of five baht coins.
"The Ye family is recruiting guards, there will inevitably be danger in the future, I am willing to stay, and I also have real skills, this box of money is considered a settlement fee for you, it is a box per person, my son will not treat his own people badly, of course, if your ability cannot make me feel impressed, then I can only ask back, Uncle Liang will give you 100 yuan each, which is considered a blessing." Ye Zhao looked at everyone and said indifferently: "Now, who will come first." ”
"I'm coming!" A man with muscles and a red face came up, looked left and right, and in Ye Zhao's unexpected gaze, he lifted a stone the size of a millstone on the ground, held it high above the top, and walked back and forth for more than fifty steps before he put down the bluestone out of breath.
"Not bad." Ye Zhao stroked his palms and said, this bluestone has two hundred catties, and it can be lifted back and forth like this, not to mention the innate divine power, but it is no worse than those weightlifters in the previous life, just this strength, ordinary people can't afford to provoke it, and nodded at the moment: "Very good, the strong man can be named." ”
"It's called Ding Li." The strong man hurriedly said.
"Can you know martial arts?"
"This ......" the strong man scratched his cheek and said, "Hui Gongzi, I am just a farmer, martial arts...... No. ”
"It's rare." Ye Zhao nodded: "Take the money and stand behind me, if you are martial arts, someone will teach you in the future." ”
"Gongzi Xie." Ding Li was overjoyed when he heard this, and took a few steps forward to stand behind Ye Zhao with the box on his face, with a happy expression, and the other dozen or so people who came with him looked greedy.
