Chapter 192 On the way
When leaving, Li Chen put thirty big gold ingots in the old man's cabinet, as long as the old man's life was not too luxurious, three or five years would be enough to spend.
When leaving, Yuan Zheng also specially explained that no matter where the old man goes, he must take his watchdog with him.
People are not human sometimes, but dogs are always dogs.
With Tengu as his companion, no matter how depressed the old man's life is, he will not encounter much danger.
For the relative he had never met, Yuan Zheng originally wanted to kill him directly, but he was afraid that the old man's heart would be uncomfortable, so he forgot it.
A lot of things are always embarrassing.
When leaving, the old man gave Li Chen, Li Ding and Yuan Zheng a pot of baogu wine, so that they could drink it on the road.
Yuan Zheng felt that this bag of grain wine was really more precious than the so-called Qiong Jelly and Jade Liquid, even if he had not drunk the legendary Agar Jade Liquid.
Xishu Xishu, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
When they really came to Xishu, Yuan Zheng and the others were really stunned, in addition to the original rugged and bumpy Shu Road, the mountains on the land of Xishu were razed to the ground, and as for the original countryside, it also became a ruin and a ruin.
Today's Xishu has once again become a state of ruin.
The government did not allocate too much pension, because the war between Great Qin and Great Wei was just a few years ago, and although the finances were not tight, they couldn't take care of the people of Xishu.
However, the atmosphere of Xishu is still the same as before, the rivers and lakes are gathered together, there are no steep peaks, but the Qingping River is still there, and the river is surging, as usual.
Fortunately, Qingpingjiang is still there, otherwise, many people would have starved to death.
After the master of the heavenly realm shook the front, not to mention the luck of Xishu, it made many fields into ruins, and for a while, the common people relied on catching the fish in the Qingping River to eat, saying that it was the mother river, it was really not an exaggeration.
But for now, it's okay, the states and counties of Xishu are also connected because of the competition of the masters of the Heavenly Realm.
If you go to another place from this place in the past, not to mention trekking through mountains and rivers, you will encounter bandits, poisonous insects and beasts on the way, which is very dangerous.
It's good now, there are plains between the states and counties, and there are a few steep peaks and mountains, which are full of demon beasts.
The deterrence of the masters of the Heavenly Realm is huge, and the demon beasts are also killed and injured countless in the aftermath of the battle, and their vitality is greatly damaged, and they live in the mountains and will not step into the activity area of the human race.
In this way, it has brought great convenience to the county guards of the Xishu Palace.
Don't worry about crusading monsters and inconvenient routes, and don't worry about catching wanted criminals and struggling to do so.
Most of the area has become plains, and there are new fields, but it takes a few years to clear them.
This involves starting over with land planning, title deeds and other family properties, which also need to be restarted.
As with the old practice, people who have a relationship with the government get the most fertile land, and the place they get is also the best feng shui.
As for most of the poor people, it is still the same as before, even if they have their own fields, the grain grown in the early stage is not enough to eat, if you spend silver to buy it, the price is high, and Xishu is already barren, and most of the people have no real money in their hands.
And the government is also turning a blind eye to this, anyway, no matter how Xishu changes, the territory is still the same as before, whether it can live better depends on the people themselves.
Sometimes, the government also believes in the saying that life and death are fate, and wealth is in the sky.
After entering the land of Xishu, there is no familiarity in the past, only strangeness.
I always feel that after Xishu Shuangbi left here, Xishu is no longer the Xishu it used to be.
There are fewer people, and the aftermath of the battle of the Heavenly Realm masters has also caused many ordinary people to suffer and die innocently.
The government has nothing to do about this matter, and there is no way to give one to the people of Xishu
A reasonable explanation.
The masters of the Heavenly Realm are all higher than the existence of the temples in the rivers and lakes, and after reaching that step, let alone the history of the local county guards, His Majesty the Emperor, who is high above, has nothing to do with the masters of the Heavenly Realm, and even sometimes can only laugh dryly.
Zhumen Town, is a town re-planned after the destruction of Xishu, built a unified house, most of them are wooden houses, as for the wood such as house beams and door beams, they are also mainly made of bar wood, and there is no better boxwood, better Tieling wood.
It looks new, but in fact, it can only live for thirty or fifty years at most.
After the confrontation between the masters of the Heavenly Realm, countless timbers were also destroyed, and the common people wanted to repair the house, but they couldn't find suitable things.
Even the roof pillars of many new houses have been excavated from the rubble.
The population of Zhumen Town is about 20,000, for a town, the population of 20,000 is not too much, not too little, but for Xishu, it is a town with a huge population.
There are restaurants, green houses, casinos in the town, and there are not many people on the street.
Most people are busy with the things in the crops, and before the spring cold, they should sprinkle some seeds, although this is not in line with the season, but there is no way, in the autumn, I don't know how the harvest is, no matter what kind of food it will come out of the time, first fill the stomach and then say.
As usual, rich people are still rich even after experiencing major events, and those who don't have money still have no money, and there are also wealthy families in Zhumen Town, with a fairly elegant courtyard, and there is wine and meat at once, and the host's family is also three wives and four concubines, and the life is also chic.
After Yuan Zheng and the others came here to take a look, they felt in their hearts that in such a Western Shu, there might really be a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Because Xishu is not as complicated as before, if the government wants to arrest wanted criminals, the route is also convenient, which naturally leads to many outlaws to surface uncontrollably, just looking at the city wall of Zhumen Town, there are dozens of wanted criminals.
Either murder and arson, smuggling salt and iron, or stealing chickens and dogs.
Of course, the content of the wanted warrant is not necessarily true, and most of the wanted criminals who can escape to Xishu have a deep hatred with the official government of Great Wei.
There may be a part of it, and it is really Shu people.
The business in Xinglong Restaurant is not very good, nor is it very bad, the location in the restaurant is only two or three percent of the guests, and there are no big owners who come here to drink good Huadiao, or eat what delicacies from the mountains and seas.
Most of them also eat a few bowls of noodles or a few side dishes, and as for those who can drink, they are all local wealthy families.
After the battle of the masters of the Heavenly Realm, the people's money bags are really getting worse day by day.
Yuan Zheng and a few people were on the second floor of Xinglong Restaurant by the window, and when they opened the window, they could see the Qinglou Mengli Building opposite.
Thinking about it at the beginning, Huan'er and Bizhu in the dream almost took Yuan Zheng's life, and Yuan Zheng would not say anything about it, because Senior Sister Shan Rong was here, and she was afraid that she would be unhappy after saying it.
A table of meals, mixed meat and vegetables, asked for a pot of good spring tea.
Shan Rong said melancholy: "So Xishu, I'm afraid that the things left by the dragon vein have also been looted by people with hearts, it is dilapidated and barren, maybe talented, but it is unlikely that something too valuable will appear." ”
Thinking of his younger brother's situation, Shan Rong's heart hurts very much, and he is also a little anxious, and he will care about it many times.
Yuan Zheng comforted: "It's okay, just take a look at it, I just know that I want to stay here for a while, I want to know the autumn and see what kind of virtue Xishu has become now, in a few days, let's go to Pingding Peak to have a look, maybe there will be something useful to Yangzi there." ”
Around the dragon vein, I heard that there are dragon scale fruits and dragon blood grass, these two things are more or less helpful to Yu Chiyang.
After eating a few bites of food, Yuan Zheng said seriously: "I thought that after Xishu Shuangbi left, there would be many Shu people who left their hometowns and went to the outside world to seek development opportunities, such as
Nowadays, it seems that not many people have really left. ”
"Xishu has broken the feng shui luck, but no matter what, although the meat is boiled, it is still in the pot, it is nothing more than a little ugly to eat. ”
"There are always some people who fish in troubled waters, there are always some people who leave Xishu and can't feel comfortable, and some people are secretly watching the future situation and development direction of Xishu, and will stay or leave when they get a definite result. ”
"According to the information I have obtained now, around Pingdingfeng, there is also a small town called Pingzhen, which is full of some unambitious scholars in the past, as for Pingzhen, it is also the government in order to restrain the rebellion in Xishu, and deliberately gather the scholars together for good monitoring. ”
"Whether it's a rebellion or something else, it's really difficult to do without scholars to give advice. ”
"There are also spies from the government, maybe a certain scholar, a retainer in a certain mansion, after we go there, we must be cautious. ”
"Great Wei and Great Qin are on the cusp, but Xishu is even more on the cusp. ”
"The ancient wealthy clan, there has been no movement until now, when Pang Zong slaughtered the land of Xishu, he didn't kill it cleanly, and there was always a part of the clan who lived in seclusion. ”
"If we can find those ancient families, we can be regarded as people who have a fan. ”
Yuan Zheng has no good impression of readers, nor does he have a bad feeling, they all say that negative hearts are all readers, but in fact, many things are really inseparable from readers.
Li Chen said: "Even if we really find scholars who are useful to us, it is a little difficult to take them out of Xishu, when Xishu Shuangbi left, the government was so busy that there was no time to govern, and now it is not the past." ”
Yuan Zheng smiled happily and said, "What do you mean?"
In fact, Yuan Zheng now wants to know what insights Li Chen can have when he encounters something that needs to be decided.
Li Chen has read a lot of books, but compared with real readers, it is still far from it.
Li Chen said: "In my opinion, it is better to meet with those scholars, give them some real money, let them lurk in Xishu, and wait until Daqin and Dawei really fight, and then find a way to take them away." ”
"Now that Dawei is rectifying the national situation and gathering resources, it is not suitable for us to save Dawei's bench at this time. ”
Yuan Zheng praised the festival: "On the cusp of the storm, it should indeed be dormant, and it is better to be still than to be still, which is also in line with our current situation." ”
"But we also have to move, it's inconvenient for us to take out the scholars, but those wild and untamable martial artists still have to be brought out a few more or less, if we can subdue the ready-made gangs, it will naturally be better. ”
I came to Xishu for an alternative recruitment.
At any time, the status of the scholar is slightly higher than that of the martial artist.
Even during the war, if there is any benefit, it is the first person who reads to taste the sweetness.
It is a good thing that Xishu has turned parts into wholes, it is indeed a good thing for the government, but for the gangs in the rivers and lakes, life is not so comfortable.
If the gangs in the rivers and lakes want to live and make money and water, they can only take some desperate paths, but now there are people from the government involved in every business, such as transportation, salt and iron, as well as grain and oil.
After calculating the past, all the gangs can do is casinos and green buildings.
But the oil and water in Xishu are too thin, and there are at least three casinos in Zhumen Town, and there are not many people in them.
During this period, the gangs in the rivers and lakes were struggling, because Xishu would truly integrate into the whole of Great Wei.
If Yuan Zheng gave some practical benefits to a fairly good Jianghu gang at this time, he would really be able to take them out of Xishu and go to the outside world to find another great career.
But before that, you have to go to Pingding Peak first, even if there is only one lone peak standing there, it is still the place where the Xishu Dragon Vein once lived.
