Chapter Ninety-Six: The Visitor (I)
Although this is a big event, but the big thing is not made in a day, and before you know it, July will pass slowly.
When the official document went up, whether it was the imperial court, the province, or the county, there was silence.
Fang Xin didn't care, even if he was scolded and delayed his future, it was not a matter of importance, he was naturally calm and calm, and he secretly admired it when the officials saw it.
However, Wu Jie's affairs were also done, and some arrangements were made, and Fang Xin went to see them.
This is not far from the county, but a relatively remote small house, a small river passes nearby, the river has a few fruit trees, and there are also stone steps, you can go down to get water, enter the yard, Fang Xin greeted him, and said, "Come here?" ”
"It's okay, it's not easy to come up with, I'm Davisi." A young girl replied, her expression a little unhappy, and when she went in, she said, "Are there any good dishes?" I'm so hungry. ”
Her current body, about fourteen or fifteen years old, was wearing a coarse blue cloth dress, barely pretty, but there was still hunger and cold on her face.
"Yes, how come there is none, there is wine, there is rice, there is meat, there is fish, and there is some silver, but there is no servant, I will make it for you!" Fang Xin said.
Even Wu Jie didn't come this time.
"I'm Dankani." A young man said, also seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing the clothes of a subordinate.
"I'm Eddie Karen." The man was dressed in peasant clothes: "I'm Abel, I'm fine." "This girl is a little bright, with a melon seed face, bright eyes, wearing a green skirt, although it is also a coarse cloth, but there is no hunger and cold.
"I'm Buster." The man was about twenty years old and wore a short shirt.
In this small courtyard, there are six houses. One of them was a hall, and everyone entered the hall, and found that there was a kitchen behind them, so Fang Xin shouted: "Come, you know how to cook, give a helper, and get something to eat." ”
Two followed, one was Abel and the other was Idikaren, and the kitchen was small. The three of them came in a little narrow, Fang Xin said: "There is rice here, a total of five stones, En'en, that is, two hundred and fifty kilograms, for the time being, it is enough for you to eat, have you suffered a little these days?" ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the three rice jars.
"Nothing, we go to our world and will encounter this at first. There are even slaves, but we don't have as strict control as you, so we can use some means, but now we don't dare. Idicarun looked at the so-called destiny from a different angle, and he took out a large fish, which was removing the scales and entrails, and seemed to be somewhat skilled.
Abel has already scooped up rice. Cook.
Fang Xin picked up the meat and cut it, he knew how to cook, at this time, he was a little familiar, it was done, the fire was raised, and the meat pieces were cooked, Fang Xin asked while cooking: "Tell me about your situation!" "According to your opinion, we try to select the people from the bottom as much as possible, and try to reduce the number of relatives and family members as much as possible. The person I took was a broken family, his parents died early, and he had only one sister in the family. Idicarun said briefly, and by this time he had removed the scales and entrails, and washed them with water.
"Me too, but my family background is relatively better, and I am the second daughter of a county who has opened a store." Abel said.
"Then what is the reason for you to come?"
"I can't find any reason. I had to run. Abel said with a wry smile.
In this world, the atmosphere is more open than in the Song and Ming dynasties on the earth, and lower than in the Tang Dynasty, and women can also go to the streets, and some even do something. But run so far. After all, it is not allowed.
Fang Xin frowned slightly, but this was also a helpless thing. When I took the fish, I put it in oil, and when it was on fire, I put it in and made it braised fish.
"What about you?" Fang Xin said to Davisi.
"A girl with dozens of acres of land, hum, abused, and didn't even have enough to eat." Davisy said.
"Me too, the head of the family." Dankani said.
"I'm an underground person in a dart game, and I don't have many relatives, but this body is okay, and it saves me a lot of exercise." Buster said: "But nutritionally, it's not enough, if you want to recover some, it will take at least half a year." ”
He is a warrior and relies on the body the most, so he is actually weakened the lowest.
Fortunately, there are no children of big families, and there are not many identities that have a huge impact, Fang Xin secretly looked at everyone, and used the method of hope to see it, and found that they were indeed ordinary people, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while, it was almost done, and a can of meat broth, a large fish with a tail of five catties, and a pot full of rice were taken out.
A room full of people suddenly smiled, hurriedly got on the table, poured some wine, and immediately ate meat and fish, very busy, the atmosphere became jubilant, a little embarrassed and restrained, and it was swept away.
The five of them were all full-fed, and only then did they start to talk about the topic, and Fang Xin asked about the recovery of strength.
"The dark spells I learned seem to be subject to many restrictions here, some sources have been cut off, and some have to be modified to be used." Davisy said with a frown.
"I'm okay, give me a year, and I will be able to recover the third order, as for the fourth order, this physical fitness is limited, and there is also a lack of sources, so it is very difficult." Dankani said the same.
"Me too, give me a year and I'll recover." Buster said.
"I don't care, the plants in this world are very rich, although they don't have the breath of our lord, but they can also recover their strength within a year." Abel said, after all, the source of the druid's strength came from the forest and nature.
"There are some changes to the basic elemental rules here, and my strength will also be greatly affected." Idikaren said with a frown.
In this way, the third-order Abel and Buster can recover their full strength within a year or two, and the others, who are connected to the gods, will naturally be cut off from the source, affecting their strength, and the magician will also be affected to a certain extent.
Although I know them, there will definitely be some concealment, but in general it should be like this. Fang Xin didn't care, and said: "I already know the situation, you should also know the situation in my place?" ”
"It's clear, Bangyan Gong, the lord of a county, amazing." Some Davisy smiled and said, "We are short of silver now, have you brought it?" ”
"I brought it early, you open the box." Fang Xin pointed to a box on a small table in the corner and said.
Buster stepped forward and took it. The hand sank, and then he came back, and as soon as he opened it, he saw the silver ingots stacked on top of each other.
"Ten taels for one, ten taels in all, a hundred taels of silver."
"Ah, Captain Fang, that's really good, that's 1,000 silver coins." Davisy said, relatively satisfied. Of course she now knows how much this one hundred taels of silver is worth, and it can indeed allow five people to live without worry, eating and drinking enough for two years.
At this time, Fang Xin was silent for a moment and said, "I am a straightforward person. Just said it directly, I don't know if you have any plans? ”
"Does the captain have any ideas? When we first came, whatever you wanted us to do, just say it. Davisy then put the silver down and said, "Just let us be mercenaries." ”
"This, I'll introduce the situation first, we are different from many of your eras, most of them are unified countries, and the internal is very strict, you know the household registration and road guide now, right?" Fang Xin said rhetorically.
"Now it's known. It's really hard to imagine that a huge empire can be so tightly controlled. Dankani said with a wry smile.
In the history of Europe, there were many countries and the population was relatively mobile, and the household registration of the Chinese Empire led to these things, which I only read when I read certain materials, and now it is the first time that I have really experienced it.
"Well, Great Chu Taizu, implement the household registration and road guidance system. If you want to go out, you must have a road, which must be approved by the county government and pass along the way. Also seal the letter on the card. to prove that you have passed through a certain place, although it has now been a hundred years since the founding of the country. The system is not very strict, but it is still not to be underestimated, the five of you, if you want to move freely, I will arrange for you to find someone to naturalize, write some household registration identity, fortunately this county is a remote area, this is not strict, I am the county, it is not difficult to do this thing. Fang Xin said: "And the empire is hierarchical, if you don't have some identity, when you recover your strength, it is not difficult to travel to and from the counties, but it is difficult to do some things, if you want, you can come to me to arrange it first, wait for a few years, and then it is not too late to move freely, we are in chaos here, maybe you can get a background, and it will be much more convenient in this country in the future." ”
The five of them were very interested in this and hurriedly asked.
Fang Xin also picked out something to say.
The five of them looked at each other, and Fang Xin felt that they were communicating by some secret means, and then Davisy said: "Captain Fang, we are here to experience some life and accumulate experience, and I am willing to listen to your opinions." ”
"Well, in this case, I won't say more, you can make up a household, all surnamed Dai, so that your relationship can be explained, Dankani and Buster, at this time I am recruiting soldiers, and when I get the household registration, you can go as soldiers, with your ability, if there is anything, you must be able to come out soon - pay attention, don't show too much abnormality, of course, you can also leave one."
"Idi Karen can read some books, even if he can't get into Xiucai, he can find a way to get a scribe to get in."
"Davisy and Abel, if you want, I will arrange for you to enter the house, if you don't want to, you can also open a store or something, but women are very restricted, and a man must be kept."
Fang Xin felt that the five of them were discussing with each other in a certain way, knowing that of course they had to keep one hand, and when they waited, he saw Davisy smile and said: "I'll open the store, En, Dankani and Idic Karen will follow me, Buster can go to the army, Abel can go to your house, how about this?" ”
"Okay, then decide." Fang Xin said.
