Chapter 234: Prelude to the Stopper

Plan ahead, from the Book of Songs. Pigwind. Owl": "The sky is not cloudy and rainy, through the mulberry soil, and the household is prepared".

I understood the meaning of the word, but when Lan Ling explained the source to me, I fell into a deep confusion, and I couldn't understand a word of what she said. The ancient people were really tired of doing knowledge, not only did they have to be able to write and use, but they could also find a random paragraph to tell the original allusions. It's as if Lanling has the urge to teach me to write every time, and after teaching and writing, he will laugh and despise me, which makes me, a graduate of a famous college in the 21st century, feel ashamed, and it seems that I am far from qualified to be an idealistic, moral, and educated ancient.

"You can teach it in the future, you don't have to put a stinky shelf after teaching, it's not interesting." Pull your face and crumple a few pieces of paper on the table and throw them out, "Encourage me to learn cultural knowledge, and on the other hand, discourage my enthusiasm, do you have to reflect the gap between the two of us to satisfy your despicable vanity?" ”

"That's it!" Lan Ling smiled happily and looked at me with satisfaction as he took the Four Treasures of the Study Room and was angry, "Didn't you say that the ignorant are fearless?" I've found that you're so much cuter than others when you're fearless. ”

"It seems that my fearlessness is not strong enough," he said, disdainfully glancing at the female rascal in front of him, "and one day you will be cast under the fiercest fearless spirit in history." Oh, by the way, do you think I'm illiterate now? ”

"Forget it," Lan Ling pondered for a moment and nodded affirmatively, "According to the meaning of the word, you can be classified as illiterate, and if you don't count opportunism, then it's out-and-out." ”

"Why don't I see you lately? Do you know that I am upset when I see you? It's like seeing ......"

"Creditor!" Lanling smiled and groaned as a supplement.

"No wonder, that's how it feels. So please don't show off in front of me, the difference in wealth is enough to make people feel inferior, so you don't need to stimulate me with your knowledge. In the future, when you are with me, try to highlight your shortcomings as much as possible, so that I can save some face. Or you can change the way you think about you lately. "The beginning of spring, the beginning of spring means spending money, spending money means that Lanling is sitting on the status of this creditor, I don't care about this, the key is how to spend the money in the upper enclosure of Longyou is the most efficient." Do you feel helpless? Confused? Beyond one's power? ”

"How do you feel this way?" Lan Ling's eyes were full of doubts when he looked at me, "Nothing major has happened to your family recently?" Got into a fight with Liu Renliang again in agronomy? ”

"Money," I shook my head with a wry smile, "the money thing." ”

"I didn't ask for an account. You can use the money, so much is not enough? ”

"Enough, enough. To be honest, I ask you if you take a bit too much, and you can't spend it at all. Coughed a few times, and said embarrassedly: "So my family plans to expand the flower water workshop again in the next few days......"

"Oh, there's no need for that expression, it's your business to spend the money you love with it. When the time comes, it will be good to pay off the principal and interest. Lan Ling got up and stuffed a plate of nut snacks at me, "What's the helpless thing to be like this, more money bites?" ”

"This time the north side of the land is demarcated, saying that it is a horse circle, which sounds really cool. Here's how it goes. My family can circle bigger than the outer city circle of the capital. Ying found a rider who was as light as a swallow and practiced in advance, to be honest, although running in the suburbs of the capital was not as pleasant as outside the gates, but it was roughly calculated. is still shockingly small and swaying, the mu unit is obviously too delicate, like a toothpick on the watermelon.

"Yes, this is the first time to go out of the enclosure is a family with a head and a face in the capital, and their ability and appetite are naturally greater than ordinary people." Lan Ling nodded as a matter of course and said with a smile: "Our two families are neighbors." ”

"It doesn't matter with your neighbors, the key is not with your neighbors. But even if it's a neighbor, I'll have to fly for more than half an hour to visit you. It's hard work for everyone. "Flicked the tea bowl," It's so hard to go to the door, reclamation, sowing, and harvesting, eldest sister, where did you tell me to get so much labor!" You don't know that the people in Guanzhong don't even come out of Tongguan, this breath is out of the side plug, who is enough for a hundred and ten people before and after? ”

"Hehe......" Lan Ling smiled, "Take one step at a time." People here don't want to go out. Won't be summoned from Longyou? Besides, I didn't intend to let you... We went out with a lot of labor, didn't we see such a big movement, and we didn't even post a notice? ”

Cheng Chu didn't have this in mind. Coaxed by my cousin, I learned that there was such a good opportunity to occupy the mountain outside the Saiwai, so I couldn't describe the excitement, he was excited early in the morning in the agronomy, and stayed in my office for a few days without showing up, and was very interested in discussing with me a series of unbelievable problems caused by the enclosure.

"Little brother wants to go to the circle in person!" Cheng Chu was a little crazy, and the blood supply to the brain was temporarily insufficient. The big bag said: "On behalf of your Wang family and the Qin family, I circled together!" ”

"Be careful I whip you." This doesn't mean that it can't be done, Old Man Cheng is not here, and only I can suppress him. "Who has a family head who has lost his foundation and gone mad? Stay at home honestly, select some strong people from your Cheng family, and the three families are counting on you if your family has this advantage. ”

"No problem! The veterans who have served in the Tuntian army grab a handful, as long as the money is enough, don't say that it is a stopper, even if you have measles! Cheng Chu's chest slapped on the mountain, and his face trembled.

"That's all fifty years old, can you make it?" Although the age of 20 to 60 is in the service period, but in recent years, the national strength has been strong, the population has surged, and the number of soldiers is more abundant than in the Zhenguan period, so the 50-year-old men are generally not within the scope of conscription, and they can be regarded as honorable discharge. Can be 50 years old...... It's a problem, it's not too young, and it's necessary to have enough money, food, and settlement expenses, but after all, the body is not as strong as the young people.

"You can rest assured! The little brother's body," Cheng Chu got up and showed off his violent beauty, "It's also rare, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he hasn't fallen for a day, and he hasn't been afraid of anyone one-on-one." But the last time they performed martial arts in the army, the two fifty-year-old uncles came up together and easily handed the knife to the younger brother's neck. On this battlefield, bravery is one thing, experience is the key, they are all veterans who have experienced a hundred battles, and after decades of fighting in the east and west, who does not have dozens of lives under their hands? ”

"At this age, An's birthday is no more. Is there anyone who is willing to go there and suffer? "If I go on a crusade and kill for decades, I will have the opportunity to live a stable life and I will not leave my house if I am killed.

"Yes, quite a few." Cheng Chu cracked his mouth and smiled, "A person like my little brother can't live a stable life." After decades on the battlefield, some people are thinking about stability, but some people can't see stability. The younger brother went out a little bit of a rumor, and now there are more than 400 people willing to go out. Two settling-in allowances for one person. There is also a chance to start a new business, and that's enough. ”

"Are you sure it's Cheng Yue leading the team?" Now Cheng Yue is already the chief polo coach of Chang'an, and he didn't expect to volunteer to lead the team out of the city, and even several big-name players in the polo team are eager to try.

"If you can't persuade him, let him go, it's a pity that the team can't find a more suitable candidate than him." Cheng Chu was a little lost, after all, the backbone was gone. Cheng Jiadi's team's record is no longer guaranteed, and the ranking is in danger of falling.

But it's a good thing for me, a few of the team are old people I have been trained in, and the Wang family will do their best to take care of it after the past, and Cheng, Qin, and Wang have twisted into a rope in their operations. From the beginning of personnel screening to the cooperation in reclamation there, the three families advanced and retreated together.

It's not just me, all the people who go out of Cyprus are worried about labor, and Longyou is recruiting. But the number of people who can be recruited over there is limited after all, and there are only a few hundred people on an area of hundreds of square kilometers, and it is a little scary to think about it, if you don't know that everyone has joined the ranks of nomads in the past, and they have been ganging and robbing all day long.

Cui Zhang raised his handsome eyebrows, which had long recovered, and bowed his hand to a long salute. "Uncles and uncles come to the Humble House......"

More than a dozen major families in the area sent representatives to attend the meeting of the Mutual Aid and Friendship Alliance of the Reclamation Group held by the Cui family. Everyone is used to calling for wind and rain in the capital, and suddenly finds that once they get out of the plug, they will become lonely and unacceptable. In the past hundred years, the Cui family has already comprehended the art of vertical and horizontal shutting down, not only successfully joining the joint circle of the Wang, Cheng and Qin families to become a quadripartite group, but also inviting all the families in the outer enclosure to discuss the issue of mutual assistance. They are all characters in the capital and know the key points. That is, those who have enmity against each other abandon their previous suspicions and sit together with each other.

"Haha. All sit, all sit! Where is the uncle and uncle? Today, they all come in the name of their families, and they are exempt from seniority. Xu Jingzong arched his hand in a circle, looking a little obscene, but he still laughed very affectionately. He bowed slightly towards the old men opposite, "A few old men have also come over in person, and the matter of breaking the head in the court can be picked up by a few of you in the court, haha..."

"Don't mention it," the other party waved his hand kindly, "One yard is one yard, just talk about things." ”

"Back and forth, it's all a matter of Jingli, my brothers fight, and when I go out, it's all a family. There are a lot of beards in the north, and I, an old immortal, come to the place with the crowd, and they all go out to kill the beard, right? An old man smiled and played a round field, his gray beard trembled, his words were confused, but his eyes were refined.

"The old immortal began to pretend to be crazy again, no matter how old he is, he is not afraid of being embarrassed in front of the younger generation." An old man next to him couldn't see clearly from the side, burly, full of temperament, obviously from the army. "Kill, kill everywhere, how good is it to kill? Who will farm for us if you don't leave a few? ”

"The old man still can't look down on it. It's full of people, there are Tibetans, there are Goryeo, Lao Cheng beheaded more than 100,000 and didn't kill the Turks, lack of labor, jokes! "This is obviously a slave trader, the old immortal has no concept of population resources, and the two-legged thing can pull the tone of his family to work as a coolie." There is also Baekje, and the Silla Gwangnu land is also not completed, and the men are also trafficked in the future. The Wa Kingdom, especially the Wa Kingdom, has been reinforcing this and that for several years, and it seems that there will be no shortage of people. ”

What kind of stuff is this, meeting and helping each other, everyone signs a mutual defense ordinance or something, and before the topic has even begun, we will first consider whether there is enough labor and start to fight the population of the neighboring countries. As soon as the old slave trader's words fell, they immediately resonated with more than a dozen bigwigs in the audience, and the topic went round and round, and several of them had already begun to discuss the feasibility of armed slave trafficking.

Cui Zhang reluctantly sat down with me and Cheng Chu, my three seniors were low, and it was rude for the old man to interject, so he had to discuss privately.

"Wait a minute, wait for the old man to have fun." Cui Chang advised Cheng Chu not to be in a hurry, and at the same time instructed his subordinates to distribute the draft of the draft mutual defense agreement to everyone, "but ......" squeezed his eyes at me. He smiled evilly: "In this way, maybe it is more cost-effective to traffic some labor in the past than to open up the land to plant cotton." ”

"Lack of virtue, you." Glancing at Xiao Cui with disdain, he slapped Cheng Chu, who was rubbing his fists and palms, "You are not allowed to interject, we will withdraw after they read the draft and sign it." ”

The draft was signed very hastily, and everyone looked at it in a hurry, since it was in their own interests, there was no need to exclude themselves from mutual aid organizations, and then the veteran of the march began to calculate the sales route. The master of internal affairs estimated the feasibility of all the plans, and Cui Zhangqiang sat with a smile on his face, and I pulled Cheng Chu with a reluctant face and sneaked out. As a civilized person, I am considerate of the ancients, so I do not obstruct others from talking about some barbaric topics that have regressed in history, in line with the three principles of not encouraging, not suppressing, and not participating. Courteously stand.

"Don't encourage, don't suppress, don't participate." Lan Ling smiled, and his palms 'snapped' in a frightening way, "Me too." ”

"What do you mean?"

"It's all a family on the head. There is no need to suppress it, why offend these old and young people for the sake of the small country of Fanbangpuer? He chuckled a few times, "As long as you don't make trouble, the sky is angry and people are resentful...... In fact, they have their own measure. They all seem to be rude, but they are all shrewd in their hearts. None of these leaders are fuel-efficient lamps. "I read the mutual aid agreement that I handed over, "It is not allowed in the customs, but it is different when you get out of the jam, don't you always say that the interests of the people of the country come first, right?" ”

"Isn't it forbidden to keep private slaves during the Zhenguan period?" Looking at Lanling, oh no, it looks at the meaning of the imperial court not to interfere, or to acquiesce.

"During the Zhenguan period, the Western Turks were not defeated." Lanling muttered, "If you have this thought. If you don't participate......"

"If you don't participate, you don't participate!" I want to be principled, I am a civilized person.

It's infuriating that I am the only civilized person, but there are two savage wives. Of course, Ying didn't know the constitution of the United Nations, and she hadn't heard of the Civil War on the opposite continent, so it seemed necessary for me to add a new discipline to ancient history and modern historyβ€”the history of future generations.

"How?" A group of women chirped and didn't do anything good, and they didn't know whose female relatives they were gossiping about, so they ran back and planned to do bad things.

"Buy labor." Ying raised her hand and waved. "Wrong, it's hired labor."

"Who's hired? You went to Cui's house again? He frowned. Cui Chang had a meeting, and Mrs. Cui Chang also learned to hold a meeting, and it has been a few days.

"We've all gone to the four of them," Ying strongly agreed that the four families of Cui, Cheng, Qin, and Wang would hold four-party talks from time to time, and the ladies would sit together to exchange bad ideas if they had nothing to do. "The east has been in turmoil for many years, and the people are miserable......"

"Does it have anything to do with our family?"

"Yes, wasn't it my husband's plan back then?" As soon as Ying said this, she immediately changed her reverent eyes, "The war continues, and the people are struggling to make a living, so they can't stop fleeing to Goryeo." ”

"Andong Governor's Mansion, Goryeo is gone. Figure out the status first! ”

"That's right," Ying smiled and pushed me, "What's the matter, anyway, the refugees are running over one after another, and General Liang is killing the people one by one......"

"The two concepts, the suppression is the rebellious people, what does it have to do with other refugees?" Ying's words can cause international disputes and human rights issues in 1,500 years.

"What the husband said, the concubines can't be distinguished, do you still expect General Liang to be able to distinguish them?"

"Yes." Liang Jianfang's appearance like a king of Hades came to mind, this old guy even beat me as a shunmin, let alone any other people, I am very afraid. "So?"

"So in the past, I posted notices and recruited some strong people, instead of messing with people and unclear distribution of refugees in that bitter cold place, it is better to honestly go to Longyou with our family and become a Shunmin. Do you think that's the truth? Ying took down the abacus with her hand, "If you say, our four families have allocated a total of 5,000 people, and calculate the ...... of food in a year."

"Apportionment? Who said apportionment? "I've been busy with agriculture these days, since I have a covenant with the four families, and they are all trustworthy people, I will hand over the preparatory work of Longyou to Ying to do, who knows that everyone has begun to apportion the strong men, and the progress is a little fast......

"It's all discussed, didn't you guys all go over to discuss it? This time, the Qu and Liang families took the lead, and for the sake of the helpless homeless, they specially played a special performance. Ying said as if he had delivered it by himself, "According to the migration of ten times the number of people who left the fortress this time, I heard that the nobles of Goryeo in the capital also intend to go out of the fortress with them. ”

The big immigrant, poor one, Gao Zang couldn't hold back in Chang'an, and wanted to take advantage of this momentum to hurry out to breathe. Speaking of migrating displaced people, according to the bastards in Beijing, they are treated as slaves, the wages are estimated to be unlikely, and the rations can be guaranteed when there are not many people, but it is better than staying in Anton and waiting for Lao Liang to come and cut off his head, even if he doesn't cut it, there is also the possibility of starving to death and freezing to death.

It's okay, Liaodong is already cold, and those refugees are estimated to be able to adapt to life in the northwest, at least more cold-tolerant than the people in Guannai, and it can be regarded as a temporary solution to the labor problem, but the approach is a bit despicable, and I still have to adapt.
