Chapter 30 A boy surnamed Mao

Qinghe County, the capital of Yangzhou, has always been a place where scholars and literati have competed for chanting.

There are nine states in Great Xia, and Yangzhou accounts for one-fifth of the annual national tax, and it is only a lot more.

During this period, the prosperity can also be glimpsed.

There is a way that has been a prosperous place since ancient times, and there are many rights and wrongs.

Above the court, there were many imperial historians who said that Yangzhou Mufu was on the first side, if it was not for the lack of soldiers and generals, it would be possible to stand and be the king. It would be better to redivide it and incorporate it into the neighboring states, so as to extinguish the source of the scourge as soon as possible.

This is not unfounded.

Yangzhou has a lot of money, abundant financial resources, surrounded by rivers on three sides, easy to defend and difficult to attack, densely populated, and talented people like clouds.

It can be said that the time, place, and people for the founding of the country are all available.

Just wait for the darkness to Chen Cang, prepare the grain and grass completely, recruit soldiers and horses completely, and look for a few strategists and generals.

Yangzhou is like a sea, he is a kind old man, no matter when he sees him, he always looks happy.

But no one has ever dared to underestimate this smiling old man. Because he not only ruled the richest state in the country, even ordinary Beijing officials had to stammer, but he also sat in this position for more than 50 years.

can sit firmly in such a position on the cusp for decades, and there is no need to say much about how he is.

You must know that the emperor is not a fool, and he naturally knows the shallow truth that others are not allowed to snore on the side of the couch.

After more than 50 years of calm and calm, except for a few dead-eyed antiques, no one has mentioned this stubble anymore. Even if the rest of the ministers occasionally interjected, they praised His Majesty for his wisdom and martial arts, and Lin Lao was loyal.

——————————————

In the rich and gentle township, the poor are also indispensable, but poverty is only relative.

Hungry immortals may be fake elsewhere, but in Yangzhou, saying so will only be ridiculous and generous.

Qinghe County covers a vast area, and the people are safe and secure.

At this time, in late spring and early summer, the breeze is blowing, the river is sparkling, and the willows on the bank are still clinging, which is a good time for the sun to go out for a walk.

Outside the south city gate, a young man in cloth clothes who was about sixteen or seventeen years old looked fixedly at the tall and mighty city gate in front of him and the dense flow of people, cars and horses.

"What are you looking at? Hehe, you didn't even enter the city and froze?" Behind the boy, a little boy who was a full head shorter than him was also dressed in coarse cloth. This little guy has a tiger head and a tiger brain, and a pair of black eyes are full of aura.

At this moment, his face was full of pride, but soon he put away the pair of shiny little tiger teeth that were always bared, deliberately put his hands behind his back, pretending to be a pedantic old master, coughing twice on his back, and teaching the young man in front of him in an old-fashioned manner, "Follow me later, everything will be done according to my eyes, and the excess part of the money, we can buy a string of sugar gourds by ourselves!"

Speaking of this, the little guy pondered for a moment and continued: "Let's buy a bunch, if you have seven...... Three of you and four of me, how about it?"

The young man smiled: "I have had a toothache for the past two days, and besides, I don't like to eat sour, so I'll give you a good meal." ”

"That's not good, why don't we buy something else, you say, what do you want to eat?" the little boy obviously didn't want to take advantage of people, even if it was just a few sweet and sour sugar gourds.

The young man touched his nose, his smile was a little bitter, what can you exchange for a few pennies and a string of sugar gourds?

However, although the contact time is not long, he also knows that the little guy in front of him admits death, unless you break the truth for him and let him agree with your reason, otherwise, the eight cows want to pull him back.

"Okay, the sugar gourd is the sugar gourd, let's go and see it first, if it's really more, I should also invite you. The boy didn't come up with any good idea for a while, so he had to say so.

The little guy thought about it, and then stopped.

"If there's a fart, let it go!" said the young man angrily.

"Are you really okay? don't cough up two taels of blood when the time comes, then you will waste my good skin!"

The young man laughed angrily when he heard this, and deliberately smacked his lips, "I heard that some big families in the city like to be generous." ”

Speaking of this, the young man touched his chin and pretended to look up and down at the little guy in front of him who had been complacent before, and looked at the latter with a chill in his heart.

The young man held back a smile, suddenly his face was full of regret, shook his head and sighed, "It's a pity, people like little white faces, you ...... It's a little too rough. ”

"Your uncle!" the little guy only felt indignant, and after holding back for a long time, he only popped out a foul word.

The boy laughed.

The two of them walked towards the city while arguing, and the young man's eyes were not idle along the way, and there were too many new things.

He was dazzled by the variety of shops, and there were countless small merchants and vendors mixed in them, and all kinds of cries and selling were full of ears.

There is also a beautiful girl who makes him dizzy, it is really a party of water and soil to raise a person, those girls who are smart and smart are like hibiscus out of the water, each with its own beauty.

"Hey, look at you, your eyes are about to pop out!" The little guy's face was full of disdain, "Are you blind kid? That girl is not as beautiful as my sister!"

He knows that women are not left, but if they don't marry well, they will be unlucky for a lifetime.

When the neighboring mothers-in-law and aunts came to chat, they always complained that they didn't choose an honest man.

Like I am sad now, the man in the family earns less money, and I dare not complain, so I can only be angry, I earn more money, and I am worried that he is messing with flowers and grass outside, which is really endless!

The little guy is lively, he knows that the young man in front of him is not easy to say, he has a good temperament, he can endure nagging, and he can take responsibility, but he is still young and his ability to make money is not very good. Fortunately, these can naturally get better over time, if it is with my sister who is a little spicy......

"Rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, do you know?" the young man looked at the little guy in front of him, and immediately became alert, "Hey, what do you want?

"What? how could it be?" the little guy woke up, first waved his little hand to deny it, and then patted his chest and asked confidently, "Am I that kind of person?"

"Isn't it?" the young man smiled, remembering that when they first got acquainted, the little guy said that he would take him to feast his eyes, and ended up mysteriously going around for a long time, just to peek at the little girl bathing.

However, the place was really well chosen.

On the banks of mountain streams, it is inaccessible.

It's a pity that the little girls who were taking a bath were already aware of it.

Therefore, this time, the two were caught by a group of aunts who were waiting for the rabbit, and they chased the two mountains before they would give up, and it was not until the middle of the night that the two rushed home.

Alas, thinking of this, the young man's expression was a little stunned, and he remembered that the stubborn woman told himself in tears that night that he would get out of this house if he brought his brother to mess around in the future.

The woman is one or two years older than him, and she doesn't look like a country or a city, but she is outstanding. The slender palms were covered with calluses left by years of housework, and the boy had inadvertently touched them once, and the hard warmth made his heart flutter more than all the girls' hands he had held before.

"What are you sighing for?" the little one looked at the boy with a curious face.

"It's nothing, let's go. The young man looked at the guy named Mao Honghui in front of him, and he had a headache, because he was going to say that his name was Mao Jiuchang in front of people later.

I don't know why this sister and brother have to find that old god stick to name it, that old guy is obviously an unserious old pervert at first glance!

However, the name Mao Yushuang is quite in line with her temperament, Bingqing Yujie.

When the boy thought of this, his mood suddenly improved again.
