Chapter 190 [The Great Salesman]
Li Mi's first refuge was a team based in Pingyuan County, and the leader of the team was Hao Xiaode, an old-timer in the rebel world, with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and he could be regarded as a powerful person. Li Mi went up the mountain with enthusiasm, but those who have read the Water Margin know that it is sometimes more difficult to join the gang than to take the civil service exam, Lin Chong was almost driven down the mountain with the letter of introduction from the owner of the firewood village, not to mention that Li Mi is a person who has no ornamental appearance and no resources in his hands.
Sure enough, after going up the mountain, Hao Xiaode heard that it was Yang Xuangan's mastermind, and he specially took the time to meet him. There is no place to stay here, there is a place to stay here.
After going down the mountain, Li Mi found a second one, and at this time, he didn't expect that there was a theorem in sociology: if you don't keep a master here, you generally don't leave a master everywhere.
The second family that Li Mi defected to was Wang Bo who was entrenched in Changbai Mountain, this person called himself Zhishilang, which means that the heavens know half of it, and the earth knows everything, in terms of qualifications, this Wang Bo can be regarded as the first to stand up against Yang Guang's arms, and when Yang Guang first conquered Goguryeo, he made a song "Song of Death in Liaodong" calling on everyone to go to the mountains to make a revolution instead of going to Liaodong to die.
With this stirring song, Wang Bo pulled up the team, occupied the top of the mountain, and became a force to be reckoned with. {} Book % bar {small} says 3.nSb.m
And Wang Bo did not live up to his name of Zhishilang, this person is indeed unique, old and treacherous, and understands that his small hill cannot raise Li Mi.
Judging from the following events, Wang Bo was not even as good as Wang Lun on Liangshan, and he sent Li Mi away without even sealing a red envelope.
Coming down from Changbai Mountain, Li Mi was completely in a predicament. He wanted to be a good citizen, but Yang Guang didn't give him a chance. He wants to be a bandit, but no cottage is willing to take him in. Mixed up to this point, it is really exhaustive. The worst thing is that the money is gone.
Li Mi originally thought that with his extraordinary wisdom, he would definitely be able to find a unit (copycat unit), but he didn't expect that such a high-level rebel talent would not be welcomed by copycats everywhere. Moreover, most of these cottage leaders are from small citizens, and they are very stingy, and they don't even reimburse the travel expenses of the applicants, and Li Mi has been running for more than half a year. Soon the few coils were spent. For ordinary people who walk the rivers and lakes, no money is not a problem, Shi Qian can steal chickens, Shi Jin can make a cameo appearance to rob, or take refuge in a big landlord to fight the autumn wind. But Li Mi was born in a noble family, and even if he fled, he maintained the dignity of a nobleman. If you don't have anything to eat, you don't want to steal the chickens of your fellow villagers, and you don't want to do begging work.
Of course, Li Mi also seems to lack some ability to survive in the wild. Li Mi is described as an excellent archeryman, but judging from the history books. This is mostly fictional, because Li Mi is not good at aristocratic activities such as hunting, wandering in the wild, and not even a single hare can be fed to satisfy his hunger. When I didn't eat at first. Li Mi tightened his belt, but obviously, no matter how tightly he tightened his belly, he couldn't control the opening of his appetite. In the end, Li Mi chose to eat the bark.
The bark was first introduced into Li Mi's recipe. Needless to say, both the taste and the stomach refused such a tribute. Many times, Li Mi had to spit out the bark of the tree, but in the end, he swallowed it.
If you don't eat, you die, and if you eat, you live. Li Mi's world suddenly became simple and cruel. In addition to eating, housing has also become a big problem, in order to avoid the pursuit of the Sui soldiers, he chose to go out by day and night, and during the day he either hid in a ravine or found a ruined temple. At night, I ran to a distant place that I couldn't be sure of by the moonlight. This is the unbearable Li Mi of the wolf, but this is also the Li Mi who has washed away the Chinese side.
At this time, Li Mi really understood the suffering in this world, and understood what those who refused to join him had suffered. Without this qiē, Li Mi would never have been able to integrate into them. …
Letters of introduction are unreliable, and petitions don't mean much, and only by going through the same suffering can people really bond people together. Let's keep walking, the heavens have exhausted your muscles and bones, and the hungry monarch has your body, but the experience is not over.
This is the unbearable Li Mi of the wolf, but this is also the Li Mi who has washed away the Chinese side. At this time, Li Mi really understood the suffering in this world, and understood what those who refused to join him had suffered. Without this qiē, Li Mi would never have been able to integrate into them. Letters of introduction are unreliable, and petitions don't mean much, and only by going through the same suffering can people really bond people together.
God's medicine seems to have been taken too violently, and while removing Li Mi's arrogance, Li Mi's ambition was also washed away. At this time, Li Mi was like an empty body, waiting for another new force to be injected into the body.
After a period of embarrassment, Li Mi wandered to Huaiyang County, lurked in a small village, and in order to hide people's eyes and ears, and also to solve the problem of eating, he set up a private school.
Here, he is no longer called Li Mi, he has a pseudonym: Liu Zhiyuan, this is correct, after all, holding the Four Books and Five Classics every day to teach a group of scholars is really detrimental to the prestige of the Eight Pillars Kingdom, or change the surname Liu Bang Liu Bei Liu Yifei They go.
This kind of day lasted for a while, and the latent effect was good, and no one found out that this new private school teacher was the famous Li Mi, and his head could be exchanged for money.
The amount of the bounty is quite high, and the Sui Dynasty government is serious. But troubled times can't hide a hero. We can hide our names, we can hide our bodies, but how do we hide our hearts?
In the dead of night, how do we face inner torture? As far as I know, when your actions are in line with your will, your heart is like an open sail that will collect the strength to move forward for you, and when your actions are contrary to your will, your heart is a sharp knife that pierces your body and exposes your flesh and bones to the sun.
Teacher Li Mi couldn't pretend anymore, and in an open class, he was in a trance and suddenly made a poem. I took the risk of sitting together and excerpted as follows: The first festival of the golden phoenix, the late forest of jade dew. On this night, the poor people are empty and depressed.
Listen to a lot of feelings, generous and unique. What do you do? Feeling nostalgic. Qin customs are still unsettled, what will the Han Dao be! Fan Hao is a disciple of the market, and Xiao He is a pen officer. Once the time comes. Heirloom through the ages.
Sending words to the world, it is really shameful to be born in vain. In this poem. Li Mi mentioned Fan Xu, Xiao He. These two people came from humble backgrounds, one worked in the vegetable market (slaughtering dogs), and the other was a low-level civil servant (prison guard), but they became a generation of famous generals and good ministers.
But what about me, I have Xiao He's talent, Xiang Yu's bravery, Han Xin's skills, and Liu Bang's skills. Zhuge Zhimou, or after the famous family, why is he still breathing in the village? Thinking of this, two lines of cloudy tears have rolled down the corners of his eyes. We all know that the latecomer Song Jiang also wrote a poem that dared to call Huang Chao not her husband, and then he was arrested.
That thing tells us that it's okay not to borrow poetry to express lyricism, especially when it comes to reactionary feelings. Li Mi did not study well and learned from time to time, but wrote reactionary poems soon came. The arrest in the county came quickly, but fortunately, Li Mi was well-informed and slipped away before the police station came to the door.
Li Mi once again embarked on the road of escape, and at this time he already vaguely felt the restless beast in his heart. But he still didn't want to wake up, he knew that after waking up, there would be no chance to get out. Either dominate the world, or devour it. Before you look into your own heart. Li Mi took refuge with a relative, which was not a good idea. …
Li Mi took refuge in his brother-in-law Qiu Junming. Knowing that his brother-in-law came to take refuge, Qiu Junming was taken aback, the above had already been controlled here, and it would be more dangerous to stay for a while, so Qiu Junming took Li Mi to a house called Wang Xiucai.
The history books especially crowned the word hero in front of this Wang Xiucai. Facts have proved that this person does have a heroic demeanor, knowing that Li Mi is a fugitive, but boldly taking him in. not only packed food and shelter, but also saw Li Mi talking extraordinary, and married his daughter to him.
For Li Mi, this was a completely unexpected scenario. In this year, Li Mi was thirty-four years old, and according to historical records, this was probably his first wife. And the last one.
A new family, a new life, a new bond. This kind of life is very warm and beautiful for Li Mi. This happiness gradually calmed down the beast that was already ready to move in his heart.
Such a life, even if it is not famous in history and not vigorous, it is still a life that people can accept calmly. Looking through the history books, there is often such confusion inadvertently, such as Qin Weizhi Xiang Yu Liu Bang, Cao Cao Liu Bei at the end of the Han Dynasty, do these people choose to devote themselves to the troubled times, or choose the right people in the troubled times?
It may not be possible to come up with an accurate answer, but it is certain that Li Mi is destined to be the one who was chosen by the troubled times. A beautiful hope was shattered one afternoon, that day, Li Mi went out to do something, and when he returned home, he found a mess, obviously, the Sui soldiers had come. Wang Xiucai was arrested, his newlywed wife was arrested, and his brother-in-law Qiu Junming was also arrested. They were accused, and all that awaited them was death. Looking at the empty home, looking at the home that had given him temporary stability and happiness, Li Mi turned and left, walking faster and faster, and then began to run, running faster and faster.
Tears wet the road under your feet. Tears made the road ahead clear. He has been evading the Sui soldiers, but from here, he will face the Sui soldiers' challenges head-on. There are many sources of strength, it may come from **, from shame, but the strongest strength must come from the people you cherish.
The anger of losing a loved one gradually filled Li Mi's heart, and this anger finally awakened the angry beast hidden deep in Li Mi's heart. If it is fate that fate has arranged for me to be an enemy of the Sui Dynasty, then I will be a qualified rebel and let it listen carefully to my roar. Life has always left us bruised, but in the end, those wounded places will surely become our strongest places. -- Hemingway Li Mi received such an experience.
Li Mi does not have the divine power of Xiang Yu, the connections of Liu Bang, the opportunities of Liu Bei, and the foundation of Cao Cao, but he believes that he has a specialty that is enough to achieve his goal.
Strange schemes, strange schemes to conquer the world. With such a miracle, there will be soldiers and horses, and there will be turf. Li Mi always believed that strategy was the core asset of the rebellion.
Since then, it is common to see a dark, thin and capable person coming and going to and from the land of Heshuo, this person does not take the main road, goes out day and night, and goes to high-risk areas. Traveling back and forth to various mountains, Li Mi enthusiastically pitched his tricks to the leaders of the rebel army.
At that time, Lü Buwei discussed the way of commerce with his father, and came to the conclusion that the profits of establishing a country could reach countless times, and Lü Buwei also became the first businessman in the world. Now Li Mi is selling a miracle plan to win the world, and he can be described as the world's first salesman.
One day, Li Mi would seriously give a certain general (self-proclaimed) a detailed analysis of the world's plans, and then tell him that he only had to do so. It will definitely be able to become bigger and stronger and dominate Shandong. Some more days passed. He will face another boss, and he will tell the other party very enthusiastically. There are many generals and soldiers, and if they can judge the hour and size up the situation, they will certainly be able to accomplish a greater cause.
After a while, he told the other boss very regretfully, with your current strength, it would be a pity not to integrate Heshuo's power. This shows that Li Mi has applied for many rebel companies, and at the same time, Li Mi has not been hired. …
Many people listened with excitement. But after drinking a meal, they all said that the brother was too far, and it would be better to talk about such a big matter later. This situation surprised Li Mi a little, he didn't expect that there would be no market for the sky-winning plan in the major rebel enterprises.
In fact, this is normal, not every peasant rebel has lofty ideals, the vast majority of the rebels rebelled in desperation, and they are satisfied to have a place to live and survive. If you really want to take over the world, this is the life of your relatives. Soon, Li Mi was listed as persona non grata by various hills. Sometimes, Li Mi can't even enter the mountain gate. When I went in, I just had a meal of wine and food.
No one wanted to believe that it was really possible to challenge the rule of the Sui Dynasty. If it was Li Mi in the past, as long as he had to be discouraged to become a rural teacher. But at this time, Li Mi had no way out.
His friend Yang Xuangan died, and so did his brother-in-law. Wang Xiucai, who was taken in by Dayi, also died, and finally. The newlywed wife is also dead, what else can he lose in this world? Li Mi, who had nothing to worry about, had only one thing left: to overthrow the Sui Dynasty. Traveling between the mountains and forests, Li Mi is like a preacher, the difference is that the preacher conveys love and peace, while Li Mi preaches hatred and violence. Still, let's go the same way.
Shandong, on the outskirts of the night, when the air became cool and the sky became dark, Li Mi woke up from his dream. He has spent a lot of such days and nights, and the next step should be to go to another employer to promote himself.
After cleaning up, Li Mi took a step and walked in the moonlight, the road ahead was as hazy as the moonlight, and as beautiful as the moonlight. Through the fog of time, Li Mi seems to be able to see his future clearly. At that time, he was no longer a fugitive prisoner, not a wandering lobbyist, but a general in golden armor, and an overlord who commanded thousands of troops to sweep the world.
This is who I really am, and this is who I must be. No matter how many difficulties there are, I must be like this! Belief has changed Li Mi, and this strong belief is extremely contagious, it can not only change himself, but also infect others. Gradually, Li Mi is no longer just a person, and there are more like-minded people around him.
According to records, there is a man named Li Xuanying, this benevolent brother left his comfortable life in the city, but he specially came to Shandong, and also went to the base camp of the rebel army to inquire about Li Mi's whereabouts everywhere. When someone asked the reason, he said something mysteriously: "There is a folk ballad: peach and plum, the queen goes around Yangzhou, and turns in the garden."
Don't talk nonsense, who promises! He explained carefully to the big brothers in the rivers and lakes, Tao Li Zi is the person surnamed Li who is on the run, and the queen goes around Yangzhou and turns around the garden. It means that Yang Guang can't come back in Yangzhou. And don't talk nonsense, who will say yes! It alludes to a secret word.
This is a ballad tailor-made for Li Mi, and this prophetic ballad is historically called a prophecy. Proverbs are frequent visitors on the occasion of the change of dynasty.
This brother who suddenly appeared can be called a die-hard fan of Li Mi, after countless times that he just left, he just left, and there is still his spitting star on the walled gate, he finally found his idol Li Mi and became his loyal follower. Li Mi, who was selling everywhere, finally had his first believer, and it turned out that the beginning of breaking the ice was spring.
Li Mi's persistence finally touched some of the mountain kings, and many people began to believe that what this radiant and spitting man might be telling the truth. Perhaps, the desire to overthrow the Sui Dynasty and establish a new world is not out of reach.
And we're not just little bandits, we can do big things too! There are more and more people behind Li Mi, among them, there is a name that everyone must be familiar with, this person is Wang Bodang, a native of Jiyang, in various romances of the Sui and Tang dynasties, this person was portrayed as a sharpshooter who pierced through Yang in a hundred steps, ranked seventeenth among the eighteen heroes of the Sui and Tang dynasties, and was very loyal to Li Mi. …
The marksman may have an element of artistic processing, but his loyalty is real, and this person has always been Li Mi's most loyal believer, and has accompanied Li Mi through the last steps.
Li Mi decided to go to Pingyuan Hao Xiaode again. Although he had contacted and persuaded many rebel teams, they had one thing in common: they were small in number and narrow, they were all small in business, and they would lose all their money after a sweep, and they could not carry out their plans by relying on these forces.
Seeing that the rebel salesman Li Mi came to the door again, Hao Xiaode's head was bigger, but this time Li Mi was no longer the original Li Mi, he had followers and was also the boss. So, Hao Xiaode endured his temperament and invited Li Mi in.
Li Mi told him about his great ideals, and he told the other party that Boss Hao's soldiers and horses plus my strategy could be commanded by Heshuo. After hesitating for a while, Hao Xiaode showed an embarrassed expression, and finally, he said what was in his heart: "Brother, when I fell into the grass, I was really hungry and couldn't do anything, and now I just want to survive, I don't dare to think about what you said." "Pushan Gong should go down the mountain, if the court knows that you are here with me, I will die!" Li Mi looked at him strangely, he was afraid of death, what kind of revolution would he make, he really couldn't understand how such a person could pull up such a big team.
was embarrassed by Li Mi, Hao Xiaode had no choice but to carry another person out to block the arrows. "Zhai has a lot of soldiers and horses, if you want, I will immediately send troops to escort you there." Zhai Rang, a native of Weicheng, was a gift from heaven to Li Mi, and he had been fighting in Wagang for a long time. In the past, Zhai Rang was considered to be the one who could save the world, at least in the eyes of one person.
One night a few years ago, the owner of the village, Zhai Rang, Dongjun, was in prison. The damp death row is filled with the smell of death, and it's not too late, but there should be no one here who can work and rest on time. Comrade Zhai Rang didn't fall asleep, he was originally the Fa Cao of Dongjun, in charge of the judicial work of a county, but he actually knew the law and broke the law, committed a capital crime, and was locked up in it at this time, waiting to eat a decapitated meal.
