Feng Shan is very happy that Xing Chunshan can have his current state, and of course he is very envious of Xing Chunshan. As an old friend, Feng Shan knew that Xing Chunshan was now half cut into the ground, and it was impossible to predict whether he would be alive next year, but his spirit was still so good, and Feng Shan was happy in his eyes.

Feng Shan patted Xing Chunshan on the shoulder and said, "Old Xing, I am relieved to see you like this, and when I return to my hometown in the future, I will come to live with you and die with you." ”

Xing Chunshan waved his hand and said, "I get ten taels of silver for one night, can you afford it?"

Feng Shan smiled: "I can afford it, my owner is a rich man, as long as I don't die before I retire, the owner can give me enough money to spend for several lifetimes." ”

Xing Chunshan looked up at Feng Shan and said, "What kind of person is the person who can make you look up to you so much?"

Feng Shan drank tea with a variety of flavors, was silent for a moment, and then said: "The elusive person, a person who has the world, a man." ”

Xing Chunshan Huo Ran stood up, nodded and said, "Okay, then let's replace the wine with tea and toast your host." ”

The two stood side by side and toasted heroically.

Xing Chunshan knows what kind of person Feng Shan is, so the person who even admires Feng Shan so much is naturally worthy of his admiration.

The two sat down again and talked about their lives for a few years. Xing Chunshan still lives the same life, raising pigs every day, killing pigs and cutting meat, and his wife and children are responsible for selling outside, day after day, year after year, exactly the same as everything he did when Feng Shan first met him.

Time passed, in Lao Xing, it seemed that he had been immobilized, and there was no change, except for the wrinkles on his face and body, and the accumulated money in the family, as well as the sons and daughters who were growing up, and who were constantly drifting away from them, everything else had hardly changed.

Speaking of the changes in Bazhong City over the years, Lao Xing was full of emotion.

Lao Xing said: "When I was a child, Bazhong City, that was one word, poor. Twenty or thirty percent of the people are in danger of starvation. Later, I was very old, probably in my fifties, and we came to a county magistrate in Bazhong City, surnamed Jiang, and the county magistrate was very powerful, and we gradually lived a better life, and the number of people who starved to death was controlled within 20%, but the good times did not last long, and the county magistrate did not sit full, so he accidentally fell ill and died. Later, another county order came, which made the people of our Bazhong City miserable and almost rebelled, and later, Cao Lin Cao County Order came. Cao County's order has been done for nearly 20 years. Since the third year of Cao Xianling's tenure, there has not been a single person starving to death in our Bazhong City..."The first Chinese network

Feng Shan quietly listened to what Lao Xing said, and said with mixed feelings in his heart: "There are many mountains near Bazhong, you can tell us about the security here." ”

Lao Xing said: "There are many mountains in Bazhong, one after another, and the roads in the mountains are difficult to travel, which is the characteristic of our Shu land." No one will ever say that the mountains in our Shu are not good, and they all say that our Shu mountains have good scenery, but our people in Bazhong City know that the mountains are not good, and there are many bandits and thieves. People who have broken the law all over the world, and who have nowhere to go, will come here and drill into the mountains, and no matter how many gods in the world catch the governor of the six gates, you will not be able to catch his trace. Therefore, the security of our Bazhong City can be imagined, how bad it is. This is also the biggest reason why people always starve to death in the past, the people are tired and tired to work all year round to cultivate the land and farm to earn some family business, the bandits come with a gust of wind, swept away, and the fruits of a year's labor are turned into ashes, do you say this can not starve to death?"

Feng Shan said: "Strengthen the city wall, send more people to guard the city gate, so that the bandits can't enter." ”

Lao Xing shook his head and said: "In our Shu land, the role of the city wall is not big, it is only used to besiege the city, not to build a high wall for war." Besides, Lord Shu is now in power over Shu, and Lord Shu doesn't dare to build the city wall under the rule of the place, why do you want to build the city wall?

When Feng Shan heard him say this, he immediately understood, and said, "Indeed, I didn't expect this..."

Lao Xing continued: "After Cao Lin and Cao Xianzun came. Let the people live a good life, and the governance of bandits is much better than before. Several clearances, multiple investigations, countless investigations... Although it was impossible to completely eradicate the bandits, it made the originally chaotic bandits' nest from one in the east and one in the west to several major forces now. After these forces were integrated into several gangs, the damage to our people was reduced a lot. ”

Feng Shan said: "This damage is still small, you haven't seen the tragic appearance of the Wang family's daughter, have you?"

Lao Xing smiled and said, "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I've heard it said." It's really miserable, but, Xiaofeng, you said it yourself, you are also a character on the green forest road, you touch your conscience and say, compared to murder and arson, what is this?"

Feng Shan said: "You can't compare it like this, if you compare it to the miserable, then there are 10,000 ways to die for vendetta in the rivers and lakes." But the daughter of the Wang family is an ordinary person, which is different. ”

Lao Xing said: "It can't be compared like this, but compared to the bandits killing people before our Bazhong City, what can the Wang family's daughter be counted for! Fifty years ago, I saw with my own eyes that the bandits robbed the passing merchants, and the tragic situation... I still shudder when I think about it. ”

The two were silent for a long time, and Xing Chunshan said again: "The arrival of Cao Lin and Cao County's order, to say it is not too much, for us Bazhong people, it is the advent of the living Bodhisattva, Xiaofeng, you people from the capital, you may go up for several generations, and you have never lived the days of our Bazhong City, so it may not be understandable, but this is the case, judging from the experience of an old man like me, this day is now compared to decades ago, it is the day of heaven!"

Feng Shan said: "The truth is such a fact, but the truth is not such a truth. ”

Xing Chunshan didn't answer the words of Feng Shan, and said: "After the Cao County Order came, everything is slowly getting better, and almost everything related to the people's livelihood is getting better and better. The rise of the Iron Head Gang, in fact, is not long, at the beginning of the Iron Head Gang, entrenched on the Iron Head Mountain, not called the Iron Head Gang, but later the power became bigger, because of the name of the mountain. Let me tell you, the rise of the Iron Head Gang, in fact, we Bazhong people did not feel it at all, the Iron Head Gang in the merger struggle of various mountain bandits, almost rarely did anything to the people of Bazhong, we only know that there is a new gang in the mountains. At this stage when the Iron Heads Gang was not called the Iron Heads Gang, the Iron Heads were not like a bandit at all, just like a rich businessman from other places who had nothing to do with us, and his rise and his business had nothing to do with us. It wasn't until the last ten years that the Iron Head Gang began to do evil, or rather, they began to do more evil, killing people and robbing women, and it really began to affect the people very much. ”
