readx;
The sun was gradually setting, and the sunset was miserable red. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Zhu Lin and the others sat in the carriage, and the carriage 'crunched' carried Zhu Lin and his gang back to the city.
In the car, everyone looked at the cage of birds and a rabbit and were talking about how to eat. Some say braised and some say steamed. It is also said to be eaten grilled.
Zhu Lin asked Yang Fei, how did you practice this hand. A group of people looked at Yang Fei curiously. Yang Fei is embarrassed. Blushing and telling Zhu Lin: "Young master, when I was a child, my family was poor and couldn't afford to eat meat, but I was very hungry for meat, so I took advantage of the time when I was herding cattle for the landlord, and used stone bullets to bullet pheasants and birds, and I practiced it after playing it for a long time." ā
"Don't you use a slingshot?". Zhu Lin asked.
"The children of poor families can't afford to use the slingshot, because those two cow tendons are too expensive. Can't afford it. I once stole one to make a slingshot, but it broke down in a short time. I haven't used it again. Yang Fei said silently. Hey, they all say that ancient times are good. Zhu Lin couldn't see what was good. No matter how bad it was in the previous life, it was still okay to make a slingshot with a leather band. But these half-grown children have a hard time making slingshots.
Zhu Lin looked a little dull in the car, maybe Yang Fei's words just now touched them a lot. He said, "I'll tell you a story, let's tell the story of the white-bearded old fairy who gave me a dream." Zhu Lin began to brag about the afterlife again. But don't say it. These children, including Zheng Jiu and Zhu Yi, listened with relish. Some children also ask questions. For example, how can a horse run if it doesn't eat grass, and how can a horse poop or not. The iron bird flying in the sky no, if the falls, it won't smash people all over the head. Zhu Lin's head was so big that he couldn't wait to grab his mouth and slap him twice. It took a lot of effort to answer these questions.
In the city, the Zhu family's small mansion. Zhu Lin finally returned home after a tiring day. It's a good feeling to be home. Zhu Lin lay on the bed and relaxed, thinking that it would not work like this. I can't wait for the house or anything to be built. I guess I'll be tired to death.
If you don't go tomorrow, hire more people, anyway, what you have now is silver. Touch the scar on your face, this scar is worth it. for four thousand taels of silver. But the scar can't be erased. If you can't get rid of it, you'll be in trouble. The master's face is not broken.
"Young master, the little one has brought you food. Wang Guangxu pushed open the door and smiled sheepishly.
"Oh, put it on the table. I'll eat it later, help me call Uncle Zhu, I have something to discuss." Zhu Lin said.
"Young master, this way pinched your fingers, the young master has made a windfall recently." Wang Guangxu said.
"Okay, don't count it anymore, if you continue to count it, the master will let you die. Come, I'll show you, I see your mouth turned up, and your cheeks are red. Eyes with affection. I'm afraid that your Wang Banxian has gone to the peach blossom luck. Zhu Lin stood up and walked to the table and said. Just took the first bite of food.
"Is the slave family going to the peach blossom luck or the peach blossom luck of the little young master?
"Poof" Zhu Lin vomited out the rice in a cold cold. Yell: "Get out". As he spoke, he went to get his sword.
Wang Guangxu saw that Zhu Lin was angry, and he climbed his legs and retreated.
After a while, Zhu Chengli came in and sat down. Zhu Lin hasn't finished eating yet. It made Wang Guangxu sick just now. I don't really want to eat it. Zhu Lin saw that Zhu Chengli was coming, put down the bowl and asked, "Uncle Zhu, if you hire someone from the city." How much will it cost? What if you hire a homeless person? Is there anything special about it?".
"The young master doesn't know, if you want to hire people from the city, the cost will definitely not be less. If it is a short-term worker, one penny a day, and a long-term worker is paid a monthly salary. A strong laborer a month is about five taels of silver. If you hire a homeless person, you have to save a lot. All you need is three full meals a day. But hiring a homeless person means dealing with the government. It is necessary to report to the government. They also hired soldiers from the local government guards to guard the homeless. And there is a lot of instability. Because the composition of displaced people is complex. There is no guarantee that there are former thieves inside. Zhu Chengli said.
"It seems that there are still a lot of Taoism. By the way, where did the government rush to the government when I saw so many displaced people that day?"
"This, I asked Liu Rumei and the old woman. They seemed to have heard what their neighbors said and rushed to the north of the city to Luomawa, which is the old woman's hometown. Zhu Chengli replied.
"Well, it looks like I'm going to meet the prefect tomorrow. What do you think? We pick out the more honest ones from the homeless people to do it. Don't want those who are oily. Also, get the women out of the barracks as soon as possible. The ones we've all contracted. Arrange for the kids to cook tomorrow. You don't have to do it with Zhang's mother. Hire a few skilled people from the city and let Zhang's mother take her to repair the simple house first. Tomorrow I will negotiate with the prefect, and I will go to the displaced people to recruit people. ā
"This doesn't require the young master to meet with the prefect in person. Let Zheng Jiu go. Zheng Jiu's head should be more familiar. I'll go and hire a few skilled people tomorrow and let the old woman take her to repair the house. The young master should rest at home! After all, he just recovered. Zhu Chengli said.
"Then it's troublesome Uncle Zhu." Zhu Lin stood up and saluted.
"It is the duty of the subordinates not to do it. It can't be a big gift like a young master. Zhu Chengli returned the salute and retired.
Zhu Lin thought about it and put the dishes and chopsticks aside. Wrote on the desk.
Early the next morning, Zhu Lin got up very early and practiced with the children in the yard. Zheng Jiu was not here, so it is estimated that Zhu Chengli arranged to go to the prefect's yamen.
It's all gone, and the only ones left are Zhu Lin and these children.
Liu Rumei also got up early to cook breakfast for the children, a big bucket of hot porridge. A basket of steamed buns. The dish is fried pickles with skin belly. Originally, Wang Guangxu was arranged to cook. But Wang Guangxu said: "A gentleman is far away from cooking." It's about saying nothing and not doing anything. had to let Liu Rumei do it. During the meal, Wang Guangxu also asked Zhu Lin to kick it. If you don't cook, don't come to eat!
There is nothing to do today, Zhu Lin teaches the children, and Wang Guangxu observes. When Zhu Lin asked how many words the children recognized. The children's answers surprised Zhu Lin. The youngest eighteen can recognize more than 2,000 words. The least of them can recognize a thousand words. Oh my God! Zhu Lin sighed secretly. Zhu Lin could have recognized this number at this age in his previous life, but it had been recognized for two years.
This group of children has only been learning for a little over a month. What a bunch of demons. But I don't know how it's written. Zhu Lin each handed out a blank piece of paper and asked the children to write the "Three Character Classic" silently on it.
Zhu Lin wants to see if this group of children is telling the truth. The children use brushes. When Zhu Lin put away the paper that he had written silently, looking at the immature handwriting, Zhu Lin was completely convinced. The small block on the top is neat and tidy. It is n times stronger than Zhu Lin's feces shell Lang climbing brush words.
Zhu Lin pretended to comment there. The eighteenth and other people who were named looked at Zhu Lin with a fanatical expression. Zhu Lin turned around and wrote on the blackboard: Study hard, make progress every day, and I will make progress with everyone. It's just that the words are a bit miserable. Wang Guangxu pouted on the side. Then he gave a lecture for a while before handing it over to Wang Guangxu for him to continue.
Not far from the house, I heard Wang Guangxu yelling there: "Don't think that your young master praises you for your good, that's a shivering for you." The young master will give you food, you will wear, and let you learn to read and behave. What are you doing it for?
"So that we don't have to wander from place to place, so that we don't have to go hungry from the cold. The young master is our food and clothing parents, study hard, serve the young master, be loyal to the young master, and follow the young master. In order to realize the ideals of the young master, we are willing to be pioneers." There the children screamed as hard as they could.
Zhu Lin heard the roars of those children and almost fell to the ground. It's a big game. Wang Guangxu brainwashed his children on dog days. No, we can't let these kids be washed like that. That's the end of the calf. If it is washed like this, all the scientists that Zhu Lin is looking forward to will be washed away. Zhu Lin didn't want to see a group of fanatical followers who had no thoughts.
Zhu Lin turned his head to look for Wang Guangxu and saw Zheng Jiu coming back. Zheng Jiu walked up to Zhu Lin and said, "Young Master, it's done." The prefect promised us to recruit the homeless. ā
"Did he say anything about sending troops to guard it? Zhu Lin asked.
"I mentioned this to me, but I said no, and the prefect didn't force it. He also promised to send the recruited homeless people to Star Lake. At that time, the official document was opened, and after the recruitment was completed, it was enough to report it. Zheng Jiu replied.
"That's good, that's good. Zhu Lin finally put his mind at ease. It's better not to send troops. If a guard is sent. It's not very convenient for Zhu Lin to do anything over there. In the future, Zhu Lin wants to turn it into his own comfort zone. Zhu Lin didn't want to have a hungry wolf squatting in his nest.
"Then we'll go to the homeless people in the afternoon to recruit, you can arrange it, Brother Zheng Jiu. Zhu Lin said.
"Young Master, Zheng Jiu wants to ask you for something. ā
"What do you ask for? ā
"Can you buy a carriage, and buy two more horses, you see that when you go out like this, you don't even have the strength of your feet, and in the future we are so far away, it will be very inconvenient to have no horses." Zheng Jiu said.
"Okay, let's go now, I'm sorry, Brother Zheng. I ignored that. Wait a minute, I'll go to the fulcrum for some silver. Zhu Lin ignored this problem. Originally, Zhu Lin didn't go out often. Plus Zhu Chengli also has a carriage. I don't usually think about it so much. After listening to what Zheng Jiu said, it is really not possible to have no horses in the future.
Not long after, Zheng Jiu and Zhu Lin went out to buy horses. Walking on the street, many people greeted Zhu Lin and called him "Little Master Zhu". When passing by the door of a certain green building, the old bustard actually stopped Zhu Lin with the turtle and asked Zhu Lin to divide a few women for them, which made Zhu Lin inexplicable. If Zheng Jiu didn't block it, it is estimated that the old bustard would have pulled Zhu Lin directly into the Qinglou. Zhu Lin was very strange. Why do so many people know me? I didn't have any flowers on my face.
Zheng Jiu looked at Zhu Lin's puzzled look and said, "Young Master, the whip marks on your face are proof. In the whole Sicheng, who doesn't know that the little young master Zhu Lin was angry and took a whip to eliminate harm for the people. The teahouse next to it is all open. ā
"Oh my god! Who the fuck made up my rumors, I'm only 11 years old! For the sake of a fart red face, no wonder that old bustard asked me for a woman. Damn, let me know who made the rumor, the master has to peel off his skin. Zhu Lin scolded hatefully.
