Since getting married, Zuo Houde has really lived a life of early retirement.

Rong'er is very virtuous, and she takes care of the family's chores every day. This feeling of staying at home and being served by someone has enjoyed it after retirement in the previous life.

In fact, there are not many things at home, but one more person shush you and ask for warmth, which can easily make people fall into the gentle township.

Originally, there were not many things in the pharmacy, and Zuo Houde and Jian Ming's master and apprentice were on duty every other day, and they had to rest for three or four days a week.

In fact, there is a special focus on the work of the pharmacy, for example, this rotation is beneficial, not only can the doctors do their best, but also like this time-honored pharmacy, there is never a shortage of large families to visit.

Of course, this large family often invites doctors to their homes to see a doctor, so that most of the doctors sitting in the hall can't go, but this round of doctors can go.

Like Zuo Houde's master, because he is full of fame, he often can't be idle when he takes turns to rest.

Of course, this also requires the accumulation of contacts, the first time a big family invites you to go, you are cured, people will believe you, and next time they will invite you.

Zuo Houde does not have connections from such a large family, and almost no one invites him when he is on vacation, Zuo Houde is also happy to be idle, and this kind of thing itself needs time to accumulate, and he can also see it.

Of course, Jian Ming will not help Zuo Houde in this regard, there is no reason to teach the apprentice to starve the master to death, right? And as far as outsiders are concerned, the doctor is also willing to invite Lao Langzhong, after all, everyone knows that people are more experienced.

For this kind of thing, the pharmacy is also supportive, after all, the doctor has opened a pharmacy for people, and he always has to go to the pharmacy to buy medicine.

Jian Ming also told Zuo Houde about this, and he also told Zuo Houde to try his best to open a pharmacy for people with precious medicinal materials, and people will not lack money, so that others will think that you are reliable, and the business of the pharmacy will be better.

Zuo Houde smiled after hearing this: "This is the ancient version, and the expensive one is the best." ”

In their spare time, Zuo Houde and his wife Rong'er mostly read and write at home, and this kind of life is really sweet.

In particular, one person writes with ink, one person grinds, and there is some affection between the eyebrows of the two. It's really uncomfortable!

On the third day of the seventh month, it was cold.

Zuo Jizu returned home early, "Houde, I heard that King Yan is going to recruit again." ”

"Dad, who did you listen to?" Zuo Houde couldn't help but sink in his heart.

"Not yet, the old Li Tou of the wine shop, the weather is cold today, he also drank a few more glasses, and the news came out when he was drunk." Zuo Jizu didn't have a good airway.

"Well, it's possible"

Lao Li Tou is the storyteller in the wine shop, if the news he releases, I'm afraid it will be true.

But if you want to say that Lao Li Tou was drunk and said the wrong thing, Zuo Houde didn't believe it, some of these storytellers actually wanted to receive a monthly money in the official mansion, and their mouths were the tightest.

Most of them don't know how to speak, so they use this way.

"I don't know what form this conscription is, whether we are in the scope of conscription." Zuo Jizu also had a sad face.

Youzhou has not been conscripted for ten years, and the last time the conscription was when the ghost party was wiped out, it was said that 200,000 soldiers would be sent at that time, and most of these were soldiers who had been fighting and killing for many years. Most of the recruits recruited were to defend the city or do logistics.

Although it is said that recruits do not go to the battlefield, this road to becoming a soldier is really difficult to return, not to die outside.

These recruits often have to undergo training, and once they have been trained, it is not easy to return to their places of origin after the war. Older soldiers will always be discharged, and at the same time, soldiers who go to the battlefield will also die on the battlefield, and these soldiers will have vacant positions. These recruits, because they are trained, are the best candidates to fill the places of these soldiers.

Of course, over the years, King Yan has also been recruiting troops, after all, he wants to dominate the world, and he can't do without soldiers and horses.

Therefore, conscripted soldiers often become real soldiers, and there will be no talk of returning to their hometowns after the war.

"It's okay, Dad, there was no father and son in the last conscription, and I am the only son in the family, so there will be no us." Zuo Houde couldn't help but comfort.

"Yes, yes!" As soon as he heard Zuo Houde say this, Zuo Jizu was obviously a lot more relieved.

In fact, Zuo Jizu has a shadow of being a soldier. There are a lot of soldiers in their Zuo clan, but there are always young people in the clan who die on the battlefield in a year, so every time I hear the clan say that a kid from that family died outside, Zuo Jizu will be even more worried.

Zuo Houde's family is small and there is no shortage of food and clothing, so he said that he did not want to be conscripted.

But Zuo Houde can imagine how many people will be excited when this conscription comes out. You must know that there are many restrictions on the recruitment of Yanwang in normal times, and there are many people who want to be soldiers but can't.

This is to talk about the requirements of King Yan's usual recruitment, each family can only elect one person to become a "pawn", that is, a formal sergeant, and other people who want to be soldiers can only become "envy pawns", that is, the so-called reserves. Whether it is treatment or future, it is definitely not as good as the "pawn".

Of course, for those who are physically strong, sometimes they will open up and let go of restrictions.

Conscription means that the requirements will be lowered, and I don't know how many men will jump up in this entire Youzhou City.

Like those who worked together with Zuo Houde in the pharmacy at that time, most of them had many children in their families, and the number of places to serve as soldiers was used up, or they would never come to be apprentices.

After all, in the eyes of Youzhou people, the Youzhou army is invincible and a symbol of glory. Which of these young guys who are less than twenty years old does not yearn for it.

That is to say, Zuo Houde has a lifetime of memory, especially if he studies history, he knows the ancient conquest very well, it is really a meat grinding field, and life and death are not up to anyone.

Soon, the news of conscription spread throughout Youzhou City.

Countless men went to the recruitment office to inquire about the news of this recruitment.

Sure enough, this time is no different from the last time, the only son in the family like Zuo Houde does not enlist in the army and serves in the military.

This time, the restriction on each household and only one pawn was relaxed. This time, as long as you dare to sign up, you can enter if you meet the standards in all aspects of physical fitness.

Zuo Houde couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw the recruiting office, which was in full swing. After all, which of the other princes did not try their best to recruit soldiers, that is, the king of Yan, and also imposed restrictions on the recruitment of troops under his rule. It seems that most of the recruits will be filled up soon.

This time there were 200,000 conscriptions, looking at this scene, there was even a long queue to respond to the enlistment, it seems that even if he is not the only son in the family, Zuo Houde will not be able to grab the place. After all, 200,000 conscripts will be recruited until the recording is finished.

Under the rule of King Yan, there is no need for officials to come to the door, and the number of people in every household is never enough, so there is no shortage of soldiers.

"King Yan has won the hearts of the people! Hahaha! ”

In fact, if you really want to talk about it, Zuo Houde really has the idea of enlisting in the army, "with a sharp weapon, and the murderous heart rises" has a body number far beyond ordinary people, Zuo Houde really wants to prove himself on the battlefield.

After all, Zuo Houde believes that in this Youzhou army, it is difficult to find a few people who can be physically stronger than Zuo Houde. Of course, it's the ones who have started a family, and they also have parents at home to take care of.

You can't let your family worry about it.
