"Zheng Jiu, you said that when we first entered the city, there weren't so many people. There are www.biquge.info pens, fun, and pavilions, but they are just dead people. Why are so many people coming back now? Where did they flee and hide? How did you get the news so quickly. And I didn't see that many people when I fled." Zhu Lin asked strangely. It was only three days after the city was captured, how could so many people pour in at once. Where are they hiding? That's a little too fast, isn't it?

"Young master, these people, if their subordinates guessed correctly, they should be hiding in the canal in the southwest of the city, not very far from here, about half a day's journey. There was a reed swing there. The marshal once sent scouts to investigate there, and he was afraid that there were thieves hiding there. It was only a few days after the rogue captured the city. The army has arrived, so the people who have fled should not have gotten far. It's just that they are far away, and when they see the army marching, they should come out, that's why there are so many people."

Chang Yulin also said beside him: "Well, we have just been coerced into Sicheng by thieves for two days, and we heard that the army of the imperial court has arrived, so I took them to hide in the temple while they were in chaos. If the army comes a few days later. We all starved to death. The whole city will not be what it is now. I heard that the thief leader in the rogue once said that the people had run to the canal, and they wanted to catch it because the imperial army came too quickly, and no one wanted to go, so they were busy burning, killing and looting." Zhu Lin smiled, thinking that the Liukou was not a regular army after all, it was composed of a group of homeless people, walking all the way, grabbing all the way. I only know the destruction, but I don't know the construction. Loose groups of tissues.

"By the way, Zheng Jiu, let's go back and make a sand table, so that I can understand the terrain of this place." Zhu Lin said.

"Sand table, what is the sand table?". Zheng Jiu asked. The sand table doesn't know, and I don't know how the marshal commands the war. Could it be that Zhu Lin saw a simple map like a landscape painting? Not even a contour line?

Zhu Lin gave Zheng Jiu a detailed introduction to the practice and use of the sand table, and Zheng Jiu's mouth was big when he listened. If you exclaim that there is such a thing, the heavens and the earth are under control. Zhu Lin glanced at Zheng Jiu with disdain, this is quite powerful. Then he began to blow to Zheng Jiu, talking about some things in the future. What is a super large missile that can take the head of a general thousands of miles away, what is an iron bird that can make people fly thousands of miles in the sky in an hour, what is an iron horse that can travel thousands of miles a day without eating grass, and so on. Zheng Jiu and Chang Yulin, who listened, were dumbfounded. Straight out of the way.

This time it was blowing, and it was Zhu Lin's dry mouth. Smoke in the throat. After the blow was finished, Zheng Jiu suddenly asked, "Young Master, how did you know?"

Zhu Lin rolled his eyes and said: "After I had a fever in my brain, when I dreamed, a white-bearded fairy dreamed of me."

Zheng Jiu and Chang Yulin looked at Zhu Lin as if they were looking at God. Zheng Jiu asked the white-bearded fairy what he looked like. Zhu Lin boasted again. Looking at the stunned expressions of the two, Zhu Lin was happy in his heart. Anyway, we are also from the afterlife, aren't we? I've seen so much of it. Just say a few things, and you turtles can't be stopped. The two of them just listened. Zhu Lin walked in a hurry. has been back to the Zhu family's small courtyard.

In the small courtyard of the Zhu family, Zhu Chengli and Zhu Yi saw that Zhu Lin was back. asked Zheng Jiu where they had gone, and Zheng Jiu said that he would take them around the street.

Then Zhu Chengli told Zhu Lin that because Yuan Dashuai and Zhu Zheng were in a hurry to leave, he left two letters for Zhu Lin and put them in Zhu Lin's house. Zhu Lin asked Zhu Chengli if the handsome and second brother had left him any money. Zhu Chengli regretfully told Zhu Lin that he only left two letters. Zhu Lin was depressed and wanted to hit the wall. I don't have any money left, what should I do? On the way just now, Zhu Lin asked Zheng Jiu, and Zheng Jiu was a personal guard beside Dashuai, and he was close to ten taels of silver. Zhu Chengli passed twenty taels of silver. That's thirty taels. In addition to the food, clothing and chewing of those children and the second brother, no matter how bad it is, it will cost thirty taels of silver. In addition, Zhu Chengli also raised an old horse, which required at least seventy taels of silver every month. Seventy taels, Zhu Lin's current assets are the forty taels of silver given by the second brother. I can't last a month. This can make Zhu Lin worried. I was so worried that I ate a little hastily at night and went back to the house.

Chang Yulin was still wondering when he delivered the meal, and said that the white-bearded old fairy had given you a dream, what are you worried about.

Zhu Lin returned to the hall, where Zhu Yi was exercising with the stone lock. Zhu Lin was so worried that he didn't have the heart to look at it, and walked into the house by himself. Two letters were seen on the table. One is written by the virtuous nephew Zhu Lin, and the other is written by the third brother. All pressed with a paperweight. Zhu Lin read Yuan Dashuai's letter first, and didn't write anything, just some words of concern, and asked Zhu Chengli to help Zhu Lin find a gentleman. Let Zhu Lin study hard.

Zhu Lin thought to himself, I don't have a penny of money, and I can still study hard. Supporting yourself is the way to go. opened Zhu Zheng's letter again, and after opening it, a letter was mixed with a silver ticket. Zhu Lin patiently read the unnutritious letter. I looked at the silver ticket in my hand. A little crimson paper is written on the Rilongchang, and the ticket is redeemed when you see it. There is also a number of capital numbers below, and a God of Wealth is printed in the middle. Very delicate, the paper is a type of hemp paper. Much like the hard paper used in later generations.

Zhu Lin was relieved now. plus the second brother's forty taels of silver, it can last for two months. This one was relieved and exhausted. shouted outside: "Chang Yulin, find someone to help me boil some water, this young master wants to take a bath."

"Okay, young master, I'll arrange it." After a while, two older children came in with a wooden barrel. Pour the water, and when you pour it, the water is a little muddy. Zhu Lin asked them why the water was so muddy. An older child told Zhu Lin that the water in the well in the yard was running out. So it's a little cloudy.

Zhu Lin didn't take it seriously, and rested early after taking a shower. In this era, there is no television, no Internet. Not even electricity. Outside, curfews have begun again. No nightlife at all. That's why Zhu Lin rested early.

In the back house of the prefect's yamen in the city, butter candles are lit inside. A herd of "well-dressed beasts" is staggering there. It's not lively for you to come and go. The man in the flying fish suit is also impressively listed.

"Tang Baihu, I heard that you had some trouble at the South City Gate today?"

"Lord Garrison, don't mention it, the brothers below are not bright enough, and they have provoked people who shouldn't be provoked." Tang Baihu replied there.

"Oh, Yuan Chonghuan is gone, are there still people you Tang Baihu dare not provoke? Tang Baihu smiled and said, "Don't say it's me, the garrison and the prefect can't afford to mess with it." It's better to keep your hands clean, otherwise you won't know how to fall off your head one day." When the people around heard this, they all took a breath of cool air. I didn't think that the little Sicheng was still Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. The garrison was also secretly pondering there, and it seemed that his hand would be shortened in the future. But he refused to admit defeat in his mouth: "This master is not afraid, in a few days, I will go back to my guard, no matter how powerful he is, he can still chase him to the guard."

"Huh". Tang Baihu smiled and didn't speak again, thinking to himself, you are a little Qianhu fighting with him, you don't know how to die. But the hypocrisy of the mouth copes: "That's, that's".

There was a team leader next to him who said, "Today's wine is good, but there is a lack of singing and." There was a lewd laugh next to him. The garrison said: "Isn't it better for the prefect to change his clothes? Tang Baihu, why is the woman you sent changing the clothes of the adults so slowly, Tang Baihu, don't you go and take a look." The adults next to him were even more obscene and laughing there.

"Tang Baihu, Zhang Bantou. Your Excellency, please." A small guy shouted at the door. Tang Baihu and Zhang Bantou didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly confessed to the adults and went to the back hall of the yamen with the little servant.

When I arrived at the back hall, I saw the prefect's official hat crooked, and he was sitting on the Taishi's chair in disheveled clothes. During the day, the old man with the goatee stood in the back. Tang Baihu and Zhang Bantou hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed. The prefect said: "Get up, don't kneel, the two of you have contributed to the mansion, and the mansion gave such a big gift to the mansion as soon as it took office." As for this house, it is not such a greedy person, the warm house girl sent by Tang Baihu, this house will accept it with a smile. Master Diao, divide the money collected to the two adults. The house is tired and is going to rest. You drink and eat well in the back house." So saying, he got up and went back to the back room. Seeing that the prefect was gone, Master Diao walked over and stuffed a silver ticket for Tang Baihu and Zhang Bantou. They are all silver tickets of Rilongchang, five hundred taels each. Tang Baihu and Zhang Bantou took the silver ticket and invited Master Diao to drink two glasses, and Master Diao followed him unceremoniously. On the bed in the back room, there was a naked girl, staring blankly at the bed curtain, and muttering, "Don't, don't." As soon as the prefect arrived at the house, he took off his official uniform, and shouted in his mouth: "Baby little beauty, this mansion is here to hurt you again, and the mansion is comfortable to serve, and this mansion will let you eat and drink spicy food." Enjoy the glory and wealth". After saying that, he frantically threw himself on the bed. Then the sound of panting, crying, and scolding mingled in the room.
