Chapter 495: Smile (Three Watches)

Remember [69 Chinese Network] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

There are many people who want to come and be as curious as Qian Wenqian and fat people.

The capital was burned down, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this is the end of the dynasty.

In these years, isn't the correct operation to accumulate more grain and save more money in order to survive the hard days ahead?

Why, the Pingyang County Lord's Mansion did the opposite, and even took the risk of building at this time, recruiting people and craftsmen everywhere, and sending invitations to merchants all over the world?

This operation is worth scrutinizing!

Is it a play?

Or is your brain not clear?

Or is there too much money, the warehouse can't be piled up, and you want to lose?

Can't figure it out, can't figure it out!

Looking at what Mrs. Yan and her son and her son have done along the way, they don't look like people with unclear minds!

Since I can't figure it out, I'm curious, and I have an invitation letter in my arms, so it's better to go to Pingyang County to have a look.

When I go to that place, I can always see a little wayway.

Maybe there's a real opportunity to make money.

……

In the private room next to Qian Wen Qian Fatzi, there are guests, a father and son.

This father and son, with a face of vicissitudes, are the father and son of the Wu family.

Lord Wu, a former official of the Qin Heavenly Prison, had to remain incognito because he told fortunes for the emperor.

He is now dressed as a Taoist priest, with a two-inch long beard and a sharp sword on his back, and he really has the demeanor of a master in the world.

When people see it, they will call it a chief.

Wu Dalang, the name of Wu Bureau.

Along the way, he had to learn the number of techniques and the Tao. I also have to take care of my father's diet and daily life, and I have to worry about the world.

is young, and he lives like an old man who worries about the country and the people.

People in the world are having a hard time!

Even if it is a wealthy south, the family is strong, and the life is naturally peaceful and happy.

But the life of the country people is sad.

Coupled with a large number of displaced refugees who fled the famine, the Great Wei world is full of human tragedies.

The partial court was too busy to take care of itself, and even the capital was burned by people.

Father and son, resting in the teahouse.

Where would I have thought that I would hear the generosity of the man in the carriage and horse shop.

and the words of the fat man next door.

Wu Ju frowned slightly, "The county lord of Pingyang is the county lord of Zhuyang who changed his fief some time ago. Are you confused about recruiting craftsmen at this time? ”

His father, Wu Daochang, smiled incomprehensibly, "Such a big stroke, at first glance, it is not something that the county lord of Pingyang can do." It must be Mrs. Yan who is doing things in the name of the Pingyang County Lord's Mansion. ”

Yan Yunge was appointed as the heir to the Pingyang County Lord's Mansion, and the matter did not spread.

At present, this news is only spreading in a small area within the official family.

Wu Ju added tea to his father's teacup, "I heard that Mrs. Yan led people south, and by the way, she made a windfall in the capital, and the entire capital was emptied. ”

"That's an exaggeration!" Wu Daochang said a fair word, "When the emperor's hundred officials left the capital, it was reported that the convoy stretched for dozens of miles and nearly a hundred miles. In addition to the people, the carriage was full of all kinds of priceless goods. Mrs. Yan, to be precise, she is a leak-picking person, picking up the remaining objects that the emperor's hundred officials don't want. ”

Wu Ju said: "Mrs. Yan has made a windfall in the capital. With this windfall, she dared to build a large number of constructions, recruit craftsmen and wrestlers, and even young and strong women, and her son thought that it was really a little inflated and a little arrogant. ”

Wu Daochang stroked his beard and smiled softly, "Extraordinary people act in extraordinary ways, so they naturally take extraordinary paths." Thinking carefully about what Mrs. Yan has done over the years, she has never taken the usual path. Come to think of it, this time there must be an idea that is difficult for others to understand. I don't understand it now, wait another year or two, two or three years, and I, ordinary people, will naturally understand her intentions. ”

"Father is quite optimistic about Mrs. Yan?" Wu Ju was curious.

Through the window, Daochang Wu watched the people in and out of the carriage shop opposite, and people came one after another to inquire about the situation in Pingyang County.

When I heard the accent, 100% of them were strangers who had fled here.

Locals, as long as they can get by, will not leave their hometown and go outside to make a living.

It's hard to leave your homeland!

It's also because I'm afraid!

Afraid of going out, being deceived, being bullied......

I am also afraid that after leaving home, my family will be bullied and gossiped by my neighbors.

I'm even more afraid of throwing my life away.

Only those who have lost their homes and hometowns have the courage to seek a glimmer of life in a completely unfamiliar place.

He pointed out the window and said to his son Wu Ju: "No matter what Mrs. Yan's purpose is, my father thinks that she has at least given these refugees a choice and a hope. And Mrs. Guanyan acts, she should be a believer, and she will not be so generous just to deceive a group of poor haha. ”

Wu Ju frowned, "Father, let's continue south." Catch up with the imperial court, take a look at the situation, and see the weather of Great Wei. Hearing that the emperor is not in good health, isn't my father worried? ”

Wu Daochang shook his head and sighed.

There were some things he had never said to anyone.

Taining Emperor Xiao Chengyi, when he told the other party's fortune, he saw that there must be a catastrophe.

I thought that the calamity should be on the siege of the capital by the anti-thief Sima Dou, but I thought that it should be in the siege of Wuheng.

Within a year, the capital was besieged twice, and finally lost the capital, even if he studied the celestial phenomena, he did not count this scene.

After all, the emperor did not escape the catastrophe.

A glimmer of hope in the catastrophe does not seem to have been fulfilled in the emperor and the hundred officials.

On the contrary, it was Pingyang County, which made him a little curious.

He had an idea in his heart to go to Pingyang County to take a look at the local cultural celestial phenomena.

He said to his son Wu Ju: "Change the route, go to Pingyang County first." After that, we will head south from Binh Duong-gun. I heard that the road is being built over there to suppress bandits, and I think it is to open up the road from Pingyang County to the rich land in the south, especially the road to the Jianzhou Palace. ”

Wu Ju stomped his feet, "Doesn't my father care about the court and the emperor?" Pingyang County can be gone at any time, and the imperial court is too late, I'm afraid it will ......"

"For the father, he has no power to return to heaven, and whether he goes or not is the same thing. Dalang, you have to remember that we can calculate the number of lives, but we can't change them, and don't try to change them. ”

Wu Ju sighed and nodded heavily, "The son listens to his father." I'll make arrangements, and Ming'er will set off for Pingyang County. ”

……

The road to Binh Duong is desolate.

The fields on both sides of the road are sparsely cultivated by some farmers.

The father and son of the Wu family were inevitably curious, so they stopped to ask the locals.

Only then did I know that because of the annual wars, conscription, conscription, and the increase in taxes by the imperial court, many small families lacked strong labor, and they had long since gone bankrupt and became field slaves of large families.

All kinds of natural and man-made disasters have reduced the population of all states and provinces in the world.

A sigh, helpless!

Qian Wen, the fat man who took the temperament of the nouveau riche to death, was also on the carriage to Pingyang County.

I walked all the way, and there was really nothing to see.

Desolation, poverty, brutality......

It's not a peaceful scene.

The sky was beautiful, there was no rain, and after several days of travel, I finally entered the boundary of Pingyang County.

If you look closely, you will see a difference.

At the boundary division, the checkpoint is abandoned, and the toll is not charged, but it is just a registration, checking the household registration and road guide, and issuing a toll card.

There are also a few more thatched huts next to the checkpoint, including teahouses, rice shops, chase shops, and a barely high-grade restaurant.

After a day's journey, Qian Wen simply stopped at the restaurant and prepared to stay for one night.

Coincidentally, the father and son of the Wu family also lived in the restaurant.

The Chase shop next door is full of cars and horses.

It is said that hundreds of people lived, all of whom were craftsmen from all over the country who rushed to Binh Duong County to work, and a few women.

There are also some people who drag their families with their families, old and young.

When Qian Wen saw the father and son of the Wu family, his eyes lit up, and his face was familiar.

He's a businessman and he's the best at dealing with people.

Took the initiative to step forward, "Dao Chief, we meet again!" The provincial governor also went to the county capital of Binh Duong County. ”

Wu Daochang stroked his beard, with a high-ranking demeanor, "Take a look around!" ”

Qian Wenlang smiled, "Haha...... Like the Taoist chief, I also walked around. The world is not peaceful, but this Pingyang County looks different. ”

Wu Daochang glanced outside the restaurant.

They come and go, they are all poor people, and they are no different from other places.

The only thing that makes the difference is order!

And the smiles on people's faces.

He had made his way south, and it had been a long time since he had seen a hopeful smile on the faces of so many people.

The smile is simple and precious.

He remained silent and asked: "Master Qian doesn't dislike it, let's dine together." ”

"The Taoist doesn't dislike me for being rude, I can't ask for it." Qian Wen beat the snake with the stick, and sat at the table with the Wu family's father and son.

Wu Daochang asked casually: "Master Qian looks at this place, what is the difference?" ”

Qian Wen looked around, "I can't say the specifics, but I feel that the people in this place look different from the people outside, and they are more enthusiastic." ”

"Hahaha...... Mr. Qian is right, the shopkeepers here are all enthusiastic. ”

Actually, it's not enthusiasm, it's a smile.

A sincere and hopeful smile infects people's hearts before they know it, and makes people feel that this place is very different.

People are coming in and out.

As the sun goes down, there are more and more people at the small checkpoint, and it becomes more and more lively.

There were a lot of people outside the restaurant, and several big carriages came, carrying hundreds of people to stay in the Chase Shop.

A few more delicate carriages entered the restaurant.

With just one glance, you can tell that the owner of the horse is either rich or expensive.

Qian Wen raised his eyebrows and smiled, it seemed that he was not only interested in Pingyang County.

There are many people in the world who are interested in Binh Duong County!

It's a very lively spring!

He's happy, it's good to be lively!

Lively proves that there are many opportunities.

Poor haha, where there is not even a little popularity, naturally there is no chance.

Businessmen like to be lively.

"I salute a long drink! The alcohol in this place is barely edible. I hope that the Taoist chief will not dislike the simplicity of wine and food. ”

"Master Qian is polite!" Wu Daochang picked up his wine glass.

As a Taoist priest, he is not taboo.

Wine is drunk, meat is eaten.

Qian Wen sighed with emotion, "There is a food shortage everywhere, I didn't expect that a small restaurant in this place can still provide so many drinks." Could it be that Pingyang County is not short of grain? ”

The liquor is made from grain.

Natural and man-made disasters, food first.

Large families began to stock up on grain.

As a result, there is a shortage of alcohol in many places.
