Over the years, from south to north, from east to west, no one cared.

The lonely ancient road, the withered fallen leaves, and the big rivers, the famous mountains and rivers, the beauty of the wind and the moon, Zeng Zhitong has seen it, but he has never had it.

When did he come to Bazhou, Zeng Zhitong didn't know.

But I vaguely remember that when I first came to Bazhou, I was poor and white, had nothing, and lived on the offerings in the land temple every day.

Subsequently, he worked as a shopkeeper in a restaurant and had a decent job.

That restaurant is indeed quite grand, and Zeng Zhitong's career as a shopkeeper is his most precious career.

In the restaurant, there are all kinds of people, including the sons of families, some of the underworld, Zeng Zhitong also subtly learned to observe words and colors, what kind of people, what kind of wine they like to drink, and what kind of food they eat.

Zeng Zhitong kept it all in his heart.

In the first three years, Zeng Zhitong didn't dare to spend money, saved up every month's salary, and made some contacts in the restaurant.

I thought that it would be more decent to use my own money to do some small business and be the shopkeeper myself.

However, the more you see and the more you know, the more difficult you will feel in life.

The hard-earned money in the past three years is simply not enough to pay filial piety to the government, do some small business, and also need to work up and down, although he has connections, but he has no money to use his connections.

However, Zeng Zhitong is still a far-sighted, he can't read and write, and he doesn't know a single word.

One day, he befriended a poor scholar, Zeng Zhitong took care of a meal for the poor scholar every day, and the poor scholar also taught him an hour every day.

Now that the cycle has been repeating for five years, although Zeng Zhitong has not raised a scholarly anger, Zeng Zhitong still understands a lot of knowledge.

Things like vassal elegance were rarely done by Zeng Zhitong, only occasionally.

Reading and writing does not mean that there is a golden house in the book and Yan Ruyu in the book, but that an explanation to oneself and mastering a skill are much better than not.

After being able to read and write, Zeng Zhiqiang can also talk eloquently with upper-class people, and occasionally, he can also chat with others, even if he is just a shopkeeper, but after such a long time, the accumulated contacts are much deeper than before.

originally thought that eight years had passed, and Zeng Zhitong felt that he should be able to stand up.

I thought in my heart, starting a career and choosing a home, although the silver in my hand is not much, it is enough to open a smaller inn.

Everything was ready, and on the day the restaurant opened, the original shopkeeper of the restaurant called people from the government to smash Zeng Zhitong's restaurant, and by the way, Zeng Zhitong was charged with some trumped-up crimes.

Life is helpless, if Zeng Zhitong's connections at that time were strong enough, I am afraid that he would have to go through a few years in prison.

But after that incident, the things that had been accumulated in the past eight years were basically nothing, and they returned to the point of being poor and white again.

He still remembers how arrogant the county order was in front of him, and how tricky and mean the original shopkeeper was.

Zeng Zhitong's life is still very hard.

After having nothing, the connections are still there, and a well-wisher secretly made a sum of money to let Zeng Zhitong reopen a restaurant, which is still a big restaurant, but Zeng Zhitong can only account for three points in this matter.

Seventy-three is divided, and Zeng Zhitong eats small heads.

Over the years, Zeng Zhitong has also gained a lot of experience in running a restaurant, and in three or five years, the business of the restaurant has doubled, and secretly, he has also purchased a house.

The original county magistrate and the shopkeeper still wanted to make trouble for Zeng Zhitong, but it was no longer easy to find.

Because Zeng Zhitong is the person behind him, he has an inextricable relationship with a certain county guard.

The county order of the broken family, the county guard that covers the sky.

In this way, Zeng Zhitong can be regarded as a climate, and because he can be a man, he took the initiative to reduce the score to eighty-two points, and the person behind him did not refuse.

From one restaurant to twenty restaurants, although it is eighty-two points, Zeng Zhitong's account is not a few, and it has gradually become a big family.

He summed up a truth, God rewards diligence, and diligent people can eventually become one or two.

Those who gamble on opportunities may be able to get two handfuls.

The combination of the two is the right way, although the gambling opportunity involves a gambling word, but the whole life, how can it not be a vigorous or bland gamble.

After the city gate of Bazhou was broken, the Great Qin Iron Cavalry burned and looted, which was also relative.

Burning, killing and looting is only for those who are blessed by the official body, mainly the government, as for the ordinary people, they are thirsty for snow, and there is no value worth burning and looting.

Zeng Zhitong still remembers that night, the officers and soldiers of Bazhou, about 150,000 people, were gathered in the most central place in the city, and a fire burned to the ground.

The fire can dispel the yin qi, even if it is a slaughter city, but the entire slaughter city is hot, not the imagined yin qi.

The common people have no resentment.

The common people, who have some horizontal relationship with the government, are full of resentment in their hearts, because they have cut off their financial routes and futures.

But most of the people are not disgusted by this matter.

Officials, where are there those who are not greedy, except for a few civil officials, the rest of the people who are blessed by the official body of Bazhou are basically slaughtered by the Great Qin Iron Cavalry.

It was at that time that Zeng Zhitong figured out who the person who supported him at the beginning.

The first time I met that person, although that person had never been dressed in brocade clothes, he still looked like a decent person.

Even though he had met that person many times, Zeng Zhitong was still a little surprised when he saw that person followed by a big black dog, and the people around him called him His Royal Highness.

It turned out that the person who funded himself had always been Prince Feng of Great Qin.

The fishing fire in the night is bright and fragile, and it cannot withstand the northwest wind.

On the bow of the boat, Xuan Feng and Zeng Zhitong sat around a table, and such a change made Zeng Zhitong very uncomfortable.

Xuan Feng asked: "I have been deceiving you all along, and I have always been using you, and now it is a slaughter city, or the city of your Wei people, don't you hate me?"

This question was asked very seriously.

Maybe it's because I've known each other for a long time, Zeng Zhitong won't be so restrained when he sees Prince Xuanfeng, over the years, although they don't meet often, but at the end of the year, they still have to meet once or twice.

Zeng Zhitong thought about it carefully and said: "I am very grateful for your willingness to use me, if you don't use me, I think I am still the same as I was at the beginning, depressed, poor, and have no money to buy a house, to buy a woman, and I will not pass on the family lineage." ”

"Although I am a Wei person, in my own country, I have suffered a lot of grievances and experienced many hardships. ”

"Although it seems that I am a very powerful person, I have no choice, there is no life at the bottom, only survival, compared to those who compete with wild dogs for food, I am still a decent person. ”

"Tu Cheng, the city of Tu Da Wei, is not my own city, my city is also built for me with the money you gave you. ”

Prince Xuanfeng smiled indifferently and said, "This is also true. ”

Many years ago, Daqin formulated the idea of attacking Great Wei, Prince Xuanfeng is the number one general in the royal family of Great Qin, on the surface, Prince Xuanfeng only knows how to fight, and does not care about the customs of a place.

Actually, Prince Xuanfeng cared about this very much.

Great Wei and Great Qin are still different, and they are different in many places.

Xuanfeng deals with Moon Worship Villa, it is indeed because the geographical relationship of Moon Worship Villa is good, and he can make some articles, as for the dividends of Moon Worship Villa, Prince Xuan Feng has never cared.

Dealing with Zeng Zhitong is a casual move by Prince Xuanfeng.

He wants to look at the psychological process of a Wei person from a long-term perspective, the ups and downs of life, and then judge the humanity of the Wei people.

Zeng Zhitong belongs to the kind of person who wants nothing and nothing, others rely on their parents, Zeng Zhitong can only rely on himself.

A person who relies on himself, awakening and enlightenment over the years, is the most valuable for viewing and research.

Xuan Feng also got the answer from Zeng Zhitong.

In fact, everyone is the same, they just want to live a better life, have a well-established country, a clean and honest government, have a wife and children, and have their own land and shelter from the wind and rain.

It's something that everyone dreams of.

In this world, in fact, there are many people who feel that I am very patriotic, but the country does not love me.

Those who are suffering are still suffering, and those who are rich and noble, as long as they do not make too much trouble, will still be difficult to shake their foundation.

Prince Xuanfeng said: "Bazhou's restaurant business, if you want to monopolize, go to monopoly, if you want a hundred flowers to bloom, then go to a hundred flowers, I still have the life of that county order, although he is not a good person, but as a county order, his ability is still worthy of appreciation." ”

"In your heart, don't you have any thoughts, the county order back then, but almost ruined your family, and spent your life in a dark and depressed prison. ”

Zeng Zhitong smiled with relief: "People will always experience some things, just settle down in their hearts, no need to talk about it, I won't hate that county order, if I am in a different place, maybe, I will be more ruthless than that county order, and the position is different, and the things I do are different." ”

"Hatred lasts longer than passion, but I don't think I would have come this far if I had been blinded by hatred. ”

"I've got what I wanted, the past, just let it pass. ”

Xuan Feng snorted and said with a smile: "Actually, that county order was eaten by my dog, I asked you, just to know your answer." ”

Zeng Zhi concentric in the ancient well without waves.

The simplest and naïve way is actually the most able to peek into people's hearts.
