Chapter 119: Circle

Everyone is a martial arts practitioner, and since they have decided to open the previous page, everyone will not mention it.

After the group entered the main gate, it was a small and spacious courtyard, because there was no wall in front of it, and there was no rockery corridor in the courtyard, it was a simple courtyard, so the courtyard did not seem narrow.

However, although there are no walls and rockeries, there are a lot of stone piers, stone locks, and some weapons for polishing strength in the courtyard......

"The third ...... No, it's not you, I'm calling this Jia Laosan...... The third child, don't look at you, you are also open, and you are also exercising, I feel that I have suffered a lot, and I can be regarded as a character. But compared to the three brothers of the Han family, you can't see it at all. As far as the degree of hard work is concerned, I have looked at all the families in these four or nine cities, large and small, and I have never seen one more than their brothers, not even one that can be compared......"

Niu Ben said with a smile on his face and in a casual tone, but the bearing on his body made Jia Huan feel that he was serious, not joking.

Jia Huan looked at the three brothers of the Han family with a straight face, and found that although they were thinner than the other, their eyes were very attentive, and their pace was steady, not weak, and the joints on their hands were rough and thick, Jia Huan concluded that what Niu Ben said was definitely not a lie.

However, this is not the time to compliment, he said to Han Degong on the side: "Uncle Shi, I came in such a hurry, I didn't even have time to prepare for the New Year's gift, and I ask Uncle Shi to forgive me." Wait for tomorrow, the little nephew will send someone to send a New Year's gift, if Uncle Shi does not blame the little nephew for being abrupt, please Uncle Shi must not refuse. ”

When Han Degong heard this, he immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Since it is the kindness of the virtuous nephew, then I will be disrespectful and accept it with shame." ”

Jia Huan thought for a while, and then said, "As for the cement ......"

"Eh, don't talk about it anymore. The virtuous nephew didn't do anything wrong, and if I continued to talk about it, my face as an uncle would really be unbearable.

The virtuous nephew is so young, he already has to run the family business, and he has to be self-sufficient to obtain the resources of martial arts, those of us who are uncles, we can help a little, and we are already ashamed to not help much, where can you still ask for guilt.

This is going to get out, where does I, who is an uncle, still have the face to be a man? In the future, how can you have the face to see Rong Guogong! ”

Han Degong really felt embarrassed, and said to Jia Huan in a rather sincere tone.

Of course, he also saw that Jia Huan came to ask for guilt today, and he was indeed sincere, not deliberate, otherwise, he would not have said these words.

Niu Ben on the side said unhappily: "Are you practicing martial arts, didn't you just turn over?" Why did you pull it back again, mother-in-law! ”

Don't look at Niu Ben's festive face, but he really lowered his face to speak, but he had a different serious momentum.

Jia Huan glanced at him and said, "I haven't finished speaking, what are you anxious about?" I've got something to say. That's right, if my cement wants to be formed, it generally has to go through three steps, which is called two grinding and one burning. Burn it and leave it alone, but grinding requires a lot of manpower. Don't hide it from Uncle Shi and all the brothers, I did this myself, otherwise I wouldn't be so dark. ”

"Poof!"

Niu Ben laughed out loud on the side, and several brothers of the Han family couldn't help laughing, Niu Ben smiled: "I said that you don't know that you are ugly." ”

Jia Huan said speechlessly: "Black and ugly are two concepts, okay?" You know a! Still don't let me say it? ”

Niu Ben couldn't help but smile: "You say, you say, I'll see what tricks you can say." ”

Jia Huan didn't bother to pay attention to him, and said: "Ordinary farmers and craftsmen are very difficult to do this, although they can also use some devices to drive the grinding with livestock, but after all, they are not as fine as we do it ourselves, especially the first-class cement, the requirements are higher, and the stones must be ground finer than flour." But I am a martial artist in Zhuangzi, and I can't do much for a long time. After meeting the British capital of the three world brothers today, I have a reluctant invitation below. I would like to ask the three brothers to help me grind limestone, of course, this is a very hard work, so I am willing to pay a salary of five taels of silver a day.

But don't think that I'm hiring you, I'm asking the three brothers to do the younger brother a big favor. By the way, there is another benefit to doing this, well, Uncle Shi, are there any hard-boiled eggs at home? ”

Han Degong was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't understand what he meant, but he still ordered an old servant to look for it, and after a while, he brought a white-skinned egg.

Jia Huan took the egg under the gaze of everyone, pinched the egg with the thumb and index finger of his left hand, and then, with a slight flick of the index finger of his right hand, the egg flew up.

This is not the key, the key is that when the egg is constantly urged by the index finger of the right hand, it turns faster and faster, and in the flying, a piece of eggshell suddenly flies out, and then, a piece of fine and uniform eggshell flies down like snowflakes, until finally, Jia Huan pinched between the index finger and thumb of his left hand, leaving only a snow-white peeled egg.

And on this egg, there is still a complete egg membrane......

Jia Huan smiled: "This is the wonderful use I found in the process of grinding limestone, and in the process of continuous fine grinding, it is conducive to my control of power." ”

"Shhh

Everyone gasped, and Niu Ben carefully took the egg in Jia Huan's hand, and said in a daze: "Really fake?" ”

Jia Huan ignored him, but looked at the Han family.

Han Degong exhaled deeply, and said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, there is no need to collect those five taels of silver, if they don't give you the silver to the virtuous nephew, you should burn high incense, how can there be ......?"

Jia Huan waved his hand and interrupted: "That's not the reason, Uncle Shi, you must not think too much. In the final analysis, the ground cement nephew still has to be sold, and it has to be sold at a high price. Even after paying the salaries of the three brothers, I ended up making a lot of money.

Uncle Shi, the ancestor of the Han family and the ancestor of the family are friends of life and death on the battlefield, although the little nephew is not talented, he is willing to follow the ancestors, hoping that one day he can fight on the battlefield with the three brothers and serve the country. Therefore, Uncle Shi and the three brothers should not shirk, even if it is in the face of the ancestors of Rongguo, help the little nephew. ”

……

"You kid has a heart, too."

In the carriage, Niu Ben looked at Jia Huan with some amusement and said.

Jia Huan leaned against the wall of the car, didn't bother to pay attention to him, just gestured at him with a middle finger.

Niu Ben was not annoyed, and said: "It's strange that my old man used you to teach me a lesson all day long, and your handling method is really good." I'm curious, where did you, an eight-year-old hairy boy, come from such sophisticated techniques?

not only helped others, but also took care of other people's feelings. Although it hasn't been revealed, if you look at the way Uncle Han and the three brothers looked at you when we left, it was a real friendship, and it was almost no worse than me......"

Jia Huan glanced at Niu Ben with disdain, and said, "I'm an eight-year-old hairy boy, and your hair isn't much longer than mine." I treat them with sincerity, and they will treat me with sincerity. You think they're all the same as you, with a pig-like face and a bright heart. Accustomed to treating others with oneself, thinking that everyone likes to play with mental tricks like you. ”

Niu Ben was still not annoyed, shook his head and smacked his tongue: "You are called high-end, better than me." In contrast, I am inferior, and I have to learn from you. No wonder my dad always asked me to learn from you......"

Jia Huan scolded: "You know a fart, Uncle Niu is asking you to learn from me and treat people with sincerity." Throw away the little calculations in your heart, the little yin fornication, the martial arts will be planted, do you want to be so embarrassed? ”

Niu Ben was annoyed and scolded: "You don't fart less!" Who calculated? Who is selfish? Master, I am at most naturally smart, and I love to think and ponder......

The third child, I see that you are smooth, as an elder brother, I will say a few more words to you, in our circle, you really can't help but ponder. If you are like the brothers of the Han family, who don't go out all day and only stay at home, then I have nothing to say.

It's not that I underestimate you, whether it's you or me, in the final analysis, it's not the kind of person who works hard. In this world, after all, you still have to play with your brains. Let me tell you, our circle ......"

Jia Huan interjected strangely: "What circle are we?" ”

Niu Ben blinked his mung bean eyes and said confidently: "Of course it's the inner circle of the Ya, what do you think?" ”

This is the circle that Jia Huan used to yearn for in his previous life, so he became interested and said, "How big is the circle, and are there many people?" ”

Niu Ben saw that Jia Huan was interested, and immediately became happy, and said with a smile: "I'll just say, I saw you at first glance, and I knew that you kid and I must be all the way!" ”

Jia Huan: "......"

Niu Ben said with great interest: "It's really hard to say how big our circle is. In this Shenjing Sijiu City, there are countless small circles of all kinds. But the ones that are really on the table are just a few.

The civil officials didn't mention it, a group of poor sour, even if they grabbed the silver after taking the position, but in the end, they were all planted. Even if it wasn't for the violation of national law, there would be people who were more greedy than him who took a fancy to the family business he had saved and brought him down......

This kind of person talks too much and is disgusting, and if he doesn't mention it, their children generally don't dare to provoke us.

I'll tell you about the circle of our elites, which is also divided into several.

The more general division method is the group of founding magnates of the older generation who were enshrined by the founding ancestors. Among them, it is the eighth prince led by the first generation of Rongning Ergong as the leader.

These powerful people are the heroes who founded the country from Long. The Danshu iron coupon enshrined in the ancestral hall of the family was awarded by Taizu, which was naturally more glorious and noble than the newly promoted nobles later.

There is also a group of nobles, who were canonized during the reign of Emperor Taishang after the death of Taizu. It's interesting to say, among them, it is still headed by your Rongguo Mansion. Because the second generation of Rong Guogong was the third prince who was in charge of the world's soldiers and horses during that period.

During this period, the old batch of nobles were not too brilliant, on the contrary, the new nobles were led by the second generation of Rong Guogong, and they shone brightly. Not only did they completely wipe out the remnants of the Jurchens, but they also drove the Tartars into the northern wasteland for a time, truly expanding the land for 3,000 miles! It's a pity......

And after this batch of upstarts, there are the main members of another circle. That Uncle Zhen in your Eastern Mansion seems to be walking very close to them. ”
