On the second day, after Zhou Bian's encouragement, Zhang Hu and others set off again with wooden sticks, after all, it is not good to use a knife. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhou Bian actually wanted to go together, but Jian Jia and the others resolutely refused to let him, so he had to give up.

An hour later, when everyone came back, they saw that Zhang Hu was fine, but there were several people behind him who had dirty marks on their clothes, their faces were uneasy, and there were even purple and black scars on their faces, which were obviously hit. Zhou Bian smiled, "After coming back, I don't know how the battle is going?" ”

"Childe, it turns out that the little head who came yesterday is not sleepy, and after claiming to be still a royal family, he was beaten by the small one yesterday and was not convinced, and today he actually gathered more than 30 people. The little ones remembered the daily teachings of the child, formed a ball, and rushed in to punch and kick, but also beat them to the point of screaming, and finally had to beg for mercy. A few of our brothers were slightly injured, so it doesn't matter. It's just that they are still not convinced, but they said that they had a bad stomach last night, and they were bored today, and they said that they would raise it for a day and compete again the day after tomorrow. The little one remembered what the son had told and agreed again. ”

"Hehe, it's okay, my son is a long-term businessman, so I can't let these little gangsters not come to harass." After that, looking at the rest of the guards who didn't go, they were all eager to try, so he said, "It's just that they add people, and we can't be bullied, and we will call three more guards when we go the day after tomorrow." By the way, you didn't reveal your identity, did you? ”

"Don't worry, the little ones changed their ordinary clothes before they came to Luoyang, and when they asked, we only said that they were invited by the store, and no one was suspicious."

"Okay, you go down and rest first."

After everyone went down, Zhou Bian frowned, waved his hand and beckoned Liu Qiu to inquire about the details of the fact that he was not sleepy. Liu Qiu, this kid and his sister Liu Ruoshui are as clever as they are, they can speak well with a small mouth, and their round face is very likable, so it is the most suitable to send out to find out the news.

Sure enough, he got Liu Qiu's return that night, it turned out that Liu Qiu went out and found a little beggar, and asked if he was not sleepy, although this person was vicious, he never did anything to bully the weak, and sometimes he would reward the beggar on the side of the road for a bite to eat, and this little beggar had a benefit. Going further, Liu Qiu came out from the vegetable seller aunt on the side of the road that this son was not poor and was so poor that he begged for food, but later he mixed up his status in a group of scoundrels and became a small head. Walking a little further, I found that there were more than 200 scoundrels in Luoyang City, but only 100 people who collected protection money everywhere were powerful, and the rest were scattered. Duke Zhou has an army stationed in the city, and these scoundrels don't dare to be too presumptuous under strong pressure, but they can't get rid of it, so it can only be like this at present, which is why Zhou Bian has never seen these scoundrels when he first came to Luoyang.

After listening, Zhou Bian was very satisfied, this Liu Qiu still had an expectation, so he gave this Liu Qiu a credit. After thinking about what Liu Qiu said carefully, Zhou Bian's heart moved, and he suddenly became convinced that this son was not sleepy.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and when everyone came back this time, even Zhang Hu had a blue nose and swollen face, and finally the two helped each other in. As soon as Zhang Hu came in, he opened his mouth and scolded, "Scoundrel, shameless, this guy actually shouted dozens of helpers, and he was beaten for a long time, and the master's hands hurt, and a few wooden sticks were broken." ”

When I looked up, I saw Zhou Bian flashing in front of him, and asked with concern, "Are you all right?" ”

"Gongzi Xie cares, it's fine, it's just that two brothers were knocked unconscious, but it's okay, I woke up and walked back."

"Did you win or lose?"

Zhang Hu suddenly became proud, "I said a long time ago that even if he comes with a hundred people, he is not afraid." Today, I don't know how many people I hit, only to beat such a kid crying dad and calling his mother, the son is not sleepy and was beaten so that he couldn't get up on the ground, this guy is also tough, and he was almost knocked out before he was convinced, too, this kid can only call these seventy or eighty people at most, and half of them are borrowed from other small leaders. ”

"What about others? By the way, you guys are so big that Zhou Gong's people didn't notice it? ”

This time, it was Liu Qiu who rushed to say, "The little one has seen the wasteland in the south of the city, and there are no people in the daytime, and no one has found it." The little one went to look at it secretly today, and when he saw Zhang Hu and they were fighting, the little one couldn't help but go up and kick down two, hehe. ”

Zhang Hu smiled and pushed Liu Qiu when he heard this, "I didn't call you, who called you a kid?" He turned to Zhou Bian and said, "Childe, the son is not sleepy, and it is estimated that he will not be able to get out of bed for ten days and a half, and he was carried back." But he said that he was okay, and when the injury was healed, he would come to see the little one, and said that he would recognize the little one as the boss. Hehe, what should I do about this, and ask the son to show me" Anyway, Zhang Hu touched his head as if he was proud and embarrassed.

"Hehe, since that son doesn't trap you, you should be their boss. Try to let them behave in a good way, maintain order around us a little more, and continue to collect the filial piety money, or divide it by themselves as before, and your reward is here in this son. "Zhou Bian actually had an idea in his heart, in the past, the merchants did not pay taxes, but they were here, and the royal family would have to return to Luoyang sooner or later, so let's lay the foundation first.

Zhang Hu was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down to thank him. The rest of the guards also had envy on their faces, as if as long as they were young people, they were somewhat rebellious, and their hearts were full of imagination and even longing for the majestic and majestic streets wandering around.

"Remember, don't mess around. Ben Gongzi is preparing to go back to Cheng Zhou, Zhang Hu and your ten men will stay here, and the rest will go back with Ben Gongzi and leave tomorrow. ”

"Yes." The guards agreed. Zhou Bian waved his hand and asked Zhang Hu and the others to go down to rest.

There was nothing to say for a night, the sun was shining the next day, the early spring sun opened his mind, and when he walked out of the city, he saw a piece of green, which was very moisturizing to his eyes, Zhou Bian couldn't help but feel good, and his steps were much brisker.

I saw that there were pedestrians coming and going in a hurry on the road, and there were many leisurely scholars, in groups of three or five, calling friends and friends, stepping on the spring, and there was also the rich lady, who was also invited to travel together, which attracted the attention of all the sons. The pre-Qin atmosphere was open, and when I saw the beautiful scenery and beauties, where were there still people who could bear it, and there were those who whistled suddenly, those who talked loudly, and those who came forward directly to talk, which made those young women blush and be happy, adding a piece of spring to this spring.

Zhou Bian looked at it, he was also overjoyed, everyone has a love for beauty, and he was about to be impulsive once, and suddenly remembered that he was only nine years old now, and suddenly he was stunned, and saw the guards dressed as family members beside him, looking around with eyebrows and smiles, and suddenly he was not angry, and he shouted and walked quickly, so that everyone hurriedly followed, and the group hurriedly went east.

There is a strip of water between Chengzhou and Luoyang, which is a tributary of Luoshui, a small river a few meters wide, and it is not far from the stone bridge to be the boundary of Chengzhou. At this time, the people who traveled in the spring were no longer visible, so they didn't go far before they saw a carriage parked under the shade of the tree in front of them, and Zichang led several people to wait.

Before he walked in, the chief of the son stepped forward and saluted, "King, I have been waiting here for a long time on the order of the Queen Mother." ”

Zhou Bian couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed, but his mother was still thinking about her child.

After being helped into the car, the group sped up their pace and headed towards Cheng Zhou. After walking for a while, looking into the distance, he saw a farmer working in the field, Zhou Bian ordered everyone to stop and wait, and walked over from the ridge with Fan Yu. I saw that the seedlings in the fields on both sides had grown, and they were already one or two inches high, and I was in a very comfortable mood, Zhou Bian had already known that he had not planted the seedlings at this time, but just sprinkled the rice seeds to make them sprout and grow by themselves, and according to the rice planting method of later generations, the seedlings could accumulate water when they grow. Sure enough, when I got closer, I saw the peasants digging a ditch, and in the distance there was already a faint stream of water flowing down the ditch. Zhou Bian originally wanted to engage in mulberry fields, that is, to grow mulberry on the ridges of the fields and raise fish in the water, but now the conditions are limited.

After watching for a while, seeing that those people were busy and couldn't talk, Zhou Bian walked back. After getting into the car, Chong Zichang asked casually, "How is the cultivation situation of the people of Wangji these times?" ”

"Back to the king, although he doesn't care about anything, I have heard others say that in the royal family's fields, the slaves have begun to plant rice according to the king's order, and the rest of the nobles are still planting millet as before." The chief replied.

Zhou Bian nodded slightly, this slavery is directly under the control of the royal family, and the aristocratic family is private land, and the royal family can't control it, but when the harvest is harvested in the autumn, they will be red-eyed.

I was thinking about it, but I heard Zichang say again, "By the way, there was another incident yesterday, and I haven't had time to report it to the king." Gongyi heard the method of rice that the king said, so he also prepared to plant a large number of them. After Zhou Gong learned the news, he sent people to block several small rivers flowing from Chengzhou to Gongyi, and there was a little skirmish when he passed through Chengzhou yesterday, which was dealt with by the Taishi in the past, and I am afraid that the Taishi went again this morning. ”

The two brothers really didn't stop, and half a month ago, Zhou Bian heard that Zhou Gongshunluo's merchant ship going east was intercepted by Gongyi, so he immediately retaliated. Then he asked, "Does that have to do with the water used by my farmland for a week?" ”

Zichang shook his head and said, "The Taishi is also concerned about this matter, and it is expected that it will not be affected." ”

Zhou Bian nodded, "Then let them go." ”

As he spoke, he only felt that the distance was much shorter, and soon he saw Cheng Zhou's West Gate, which was much shorter than Luoyang, and he said goodbye for a month and a half, and finally came back.
