Chapter 3: Choosing a Family

Farming is very boring and tedious, but Yang Wenli enjoys it, because he knows that in ancient times, people could only do other things if they had enough to eat. You can't make a revolution with a hungry stomach, and that kind of ideal is utopian.

Yang Wenli didn't have any big ambitions, he just wanted to save his life and be his young master in Spear Mountain.

It is this small goal, he must also farm, so that his family can support his family guards, he must buy more land with more money, and then use more land to raise more people, only then can he have the capital to initially ensure his safety.

The troubled times are not a joke, just ordinary homeless people can destroy the spear mountain, not to mention huge military organizations like Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, and Houjin.

If he takes 10,000 steps back, he will retreat overseas in the future, and he will be surrounded by capable and capable guards. So it was the current situation that forced Yang Wenli to farm honestly, if in the modern era of peace, he was too lazy to farm so hard?

Three years have passed in a flick of a finger, and now it is the forty-eighth year of Wanli, in this year, the old man of Shenzong is about to drive immortals, and the Ming Dynasty is about to enter the era of fierce party struggle for seven years.

But these are too far away from Yang Wenli, he is just a small person, he just wants to save his family and his own life in the troubled times in the future. In the torrent of history, he is as weak as an ant, and he can't take care of the general trend so far. Even if he clearly knew that the Ming Dynasty would fall, with his current ability, he would not be able to participate in the future competition in the world.

You have to have strength in everything, and Yang Wenli, who was a gangster in his previous life, knows better than anyone else. That's what he thinks, that's what he does, farming is just the first step, it's a very crucial step.

Now that he has an adequate supply of meat, eggs and fish at home, he wants to move on to his next step. Cultivating his own force team, yes, Yang Wenli, who is afraid of death, wants to start cultivating the strength of his cronies.

Although Yang Wenli, who is already nine years old, is still young, he has won the affirmation and recognition of his mother through his hard work in the past few years, and he has been able to put forward some of his more ridiculous ideas to his mother.

"Mother, my son wants to buy a few teenagers who are the same age as me to practice martial arts with me, and in the future he will be the family's guard, what do you think, mother?" After dinner, when his mother drank tea and ate the most reverie, Yang Wenli took the opportunity to put forward his own ideas.

Although there was a saying in history that Wanli Zhongxing, but after the three major expeditions of Wanli, the treasury was empty and could run a horse, and Wanli Ye Dafeng's sons rewarded a large number of Huangzhuang fields, which seriously encroached on the interests of farmers, so there was a peasant uprising in Shandong in the middle and late Wanli period. In addition, the border pass and Houjin have been fighting all year round, and they have been defeated repeatedly, which has shown a little chaotic weather, and Yang Chen also felt that his son's idea of raising a few guards was good, so he agreed.

"Wu'er, don't worry, do it! As long as you are doing the right thing, your mother will support you. Yang Chen didn't say much, but his words were full of love, which warmed the heart of Yang Wenli, a guest from another world, and made him determined to protect the safety of his family, which is a very difficult task in troubled times.

……

In recent years, the Yang family has undergone some transformation by Yang Wenli, the livestock are prosperous, the grains are abundant, and they are already able to raise a few families.

The buyer doesn't spend a few dollars, and in the season of green and yellow, it basically makes no difference if it is given away for nothing. Those who buy sons are just really unable to live, and they want to give their sons a way to live, not to make a fortune by buying their sons, and no parents have such a vicious heart.

A teenager around the age of ten can't do farm work, and it's the time to grow his body, and he eats a lot, so it's easier for the Yang family to buy it. There is no need to go to the state capital, the Yang family only showed a mouth, and people from ten miles and eight townships rushed to bring their sons to the Yang family to sell them.

"Young Master Li, my son is honest and hardworking, and he doesn't eat much, please buy my son!" Of course, people from ten miles and eight towns know each other, and when Yang Wenli comes out, everyone will surround him and work hard to promote his son.

Buying nearby for others is the best choice for parents, which is stronger than working long hours for large families, because of the proximity, the son can still often go home to visit, in fact, it is equivalent to the burden of raising a child to others, and when the son is older, his son is still his son, what a cost-effective deal!

The selection of the house was personally checked by Yang Wenli, because this time it was the nominal buyer Ding he chose to be his partner. Yang Wenli's selection of the family is to cultivate the armed forces, in fact, there is no difference from the selection of soldiers, so the selection conditions are relatively strict, and he is selected in strict accordance with Qi Jiguang's criteria for selecting soldiers.

So he shouted loudly: "Don't crowd, don't be busy recommending yourself, I will be fair and choose a partner according to my standards."

Adults, please disperse and let the children of the candidates stand in front of me, and I will choose fairly on the spot, and if you don't listen to my advice, you will be disqualified from running for election. ”

Although Yang Wenli was young, his words were orderly, well-organized, and sound, and the parents did not dare to disobey his will, and honestly spread to the side, letting their respective sons stay in front of Yang Wenli.

Looking at a large group of children of the same age standing in front of him, who were either excited or sad, or hopeful or depressed, Yang Wenli crossed his hands behind his back, stood in a non-trivial posture, straightened his waist, his eyes were sharp, he glanced at every child in front of him, and did not say a word for a long time.

He is a rich young master, and he may be the master of some of them in the future, and his eyes seem to the children to have an aura of not being angry and arrogant, so that every child does not dare to look at him.

However, the dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of which was different. They are born with different personalities, which determines their future achievements. Some people are naturally suited to be soldiers, some are doomed to nothing, and so on.

According to Qi Gongbao's criteria for selecting soldiers, those who have flashing eyes and excited expressions are not suitable for being soldiers, and those who have fierce eyes and are unruly are not suitable for being soldiers, and those who are evasive and cowardly are not suitable for being soldiers. Only those with a calm gaze and a strong character can be cultivated.

After choosing a character, you have to choose your muscles. Yang Wenli's exercise method is different from others, he only wants to choose those who have thick muscles and bones, it doesn't matter if they are strong or not, he has his own way to make them strong.

Yang Wenli straightened his waist and remained motionless, and it took a full half an hour before he finally began to name "you, you, and you...... The person I just picked will stand aside, and the rest of us will go back!

My Yang family is a small family, and I can only raise so many families for the time being. ”

Yang Wenli's tone was cold, and his politeness had the meaning of being thousands of miles away, which was not at all like a child's words, but like a middle-aged man's tone. But after all, he is a rich son, and the neighbors present are all small people, so he is naturally not a class, even if Yang Wenli is young, the people who lost the election do not dare to make a mistake, they only blame themselves for being far from being angry, and they shook their heads and sighed and left.
