Chapter 678

"Handsome! All the mistakes are my fault, and I ask the marshal not to criticize the officials in Xi'an. Sun Chuanting shook his head helplessly, and simply accepted it together.

"Your business is not in my hands, go back to Beijing and talk to Mr. Sun. I can't control the officials in Xi'an. I'm just a secretary of the military department, and I only care about the soldiers, and I won't interfere in other things. "Sun Chengzong is in charge of civil affairs, and Li Xiao is in charge of military affairs. This is a political tacit understanding between the two people, and it is also a political agreement. Even if something like this happens, Li Xiao will not break it easily.

"No!" Sun Chuanting bowed down to receive the order.

"The year has risen, since you have taken the project. Then the Baqiao project will be done by you, and the appropriation of the imperial court will be paid in time. Do a good job of the project, don't make it a tofu slag project, and don't owe the farmers their wages. If you do both of these things ......! ”

"The imperial court allocated funds in time, and the villain made tofu...... The tofu scum project, or the arrears of wages to the villagers, the handsome can promote my family to correct the law on the spot, and the villain will never complain. Without waiting for Li Xiao to finish speaking, Nian Yousheng knelt on the ground and swore an oath.

Another clever fellow, I hope he will put all his eyes on the right path.

If he can do a good conscience project, Li Xiao doesn't mind making him a rich man on the rich side. Bother, work, and be frightened, no one will do it without any benefit. Talking about the feelings of the family and the country at every turn, making people tighten their stomachs and work in vain, that is to play hooligan.

Glancing at the two monks who had collapsed on the ground, Huikong was already drooling, and it was estimated that he had at least had a stroke. If you don't have a sudden cerebral congestion, it is a terminal illness in this era.

Wujing is okay, but the person is shaking like a sparrow falling out of the nest, and there is water flowing out from under the robe

"Your Great Temple of Mercy and Grace is good, and you have gathered money to this point. My commander who leads the troops, and the handling of the case is not under my control. You monks always make fortunes everywhere, and today I, the handsome, have to fight you with the autumn wind.

There is no way, the millions of people with guns under his command are waiting to eat and fire. No money! It can't be done! Master Wujing, do you say that's the truth? ”

Wujing knelt on the ground, the whole person had been stupid, and now the person had lost the function of speech. I could only look at Li Xiao in a daze, unable to say a word.

"Click!" Li Xiao pulled out the pistol from Shunzi's waist and opened the barrel of the machine head to press it against Wujing's head.

"Spare your life! Spare your life! Wujing's cry for mercy can be described as hoarse, his head slammed on the ground "bang" and "bang", he has never kowtowed to the Buddha in his life.

"This handsome man doesn't want to kill, look at my child is still so young. The bloody scene made him see that there would be psychological shadows. If you want to live, that's good! Take out some sincerity! ”

I don't know what the psychological shadow is, but it's a matter of life, and the head that is down immediately recovers its clarity. In addition to money, the Great Mercy and Grace Temple owes everything. Li Xiao's tone of meaning is clearly asking for money.

It's easy to say that if you want money, as long as you can save your life, it's no problem to get out of the Great Ci'en Temple. Anyway, this Great Temple of Mercy and Grace is not his family! Over the years, he has already made enough.

"Big ......! Big......! Handsome ......! Little Monk ...... The little monk is just the first one in the precept institute, and the things in this temple are ......! The little monk can't do ......! ”

"Well, throw him down." Li Xiao pouted, and walked to the window with Huikong's body in his hand. A person who has already had a stroke, something of value also comes out of his mouth. It is estimated that if he doesn't throw it down, the rest of his life will be extremely painful, Li Xiao decided to do some good deeds, and give full play to his last residual heat - scaring people!

"Now you're the abbot, I said! It's time to call the shots! The muzzle of the gun was pressed against Gojing's temple.

"Little monk......! The little monk is willing to donate all the temple property of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple. Huikong's body fell like a kite, and the fear in Wujing's heart rose to the extreme. Without hesitation, he betrayed the Great Mercy and Grace Temple!

"Excellent! Very good! Still, I want your possessions, okay or not? Li Xiao's smile was very kind, at least the gun on the door of his head was put away.

In his heart, 10,000 grass and mud horses roared by, but he didn't dare to show any of them on his face. He didn't want to be released like a kite!

"A young monk is a monk and does not need a family property. If the big handsome is needed, the little monk is willing to donate it all. The person had to bow his head at gunpoint, and after seeing Li Xiao's ruthlessness, Wujing knew that the person in front of him didn't care about his life at all. Money is something outside the body, but this thing outside the body holds the flesh of the heart. If it weren't for their lives, who would be willing to give up such a huge amount of money.

"Not bad! The order went down, and the Great Mercy and Grace Temple is now under military control. Send an airship to transfer Lu Xiangsheng, and it is his duty to take care of the matter of Dali Temple. Before Lu Xiangsheng came, the Great Ci'en Temple did not go out or enter. Go send a telegram now, immediately! ”

There is a newspaper office in Xi'an, and it takes four or five hours to take a new airship to the Great Ci'en Temple. If it's fast, Lu Xiangsheng should be able to land in Xi'an before dark.

"Tell him what you know. Otherwise, it's still a death. Li Xiao pointed to Sun Xing, who was following him.

The defense of Yinchuan was fought very well, and Li Xiao also liked this garrison commander who was trapped in the lonely city. You know, a garrison division and a field division are definitely two different things. From equipment to personnel, it is not on the same level as the field division.

actually relied on these people to defend the Mongols' crazy attack, and Li Xiao felt that this Sun Xing was a manufacturable material. After going to Qinhuangdao to study for a year and a half, he has been staying by Li Xiao's side as a staff officer. Li Xiao thinks that maybe this kid will become a general in the future.

"According to what he said, arrest people, and don't let anyone go. As for whether he is wronged or not, leave it to Lu Xiangsheng to decide. Your task is to arrest all the bastards who sell the official mantle and resell the project approval documents before the news spreads. ”

"No!" Sun Xing said yes, and commanded the two guards to set up Wujing and leave.

"Junko! Before I speak, a mouse runs out of this big wild goose pagoda, and you get a bullet yourself. ”

"No!" Junko stood on the step and waved her hand below. The guard battalion that had been prepared a long time below immediately blocked the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda, where high-ranking officials and dignitaries gathered, immediately became a military powerhouse. The soldiers were loaded with guns one by one, and there were even people patrolling with big wolf dogs on the periphery. In this formation, let alone people, even ghosts dare not approach.

Li Xiao walked slowly down the stairs, smiling and waving at the panicked officials on each floor, as if nothing had happened at the top of the tower.

took Li Lin into the luxurious abbot's room, and Li Xiao sat on Huikong's seat. I don't know if I don't sit, but the cushions of this guy's seat are actually filled with goose down. It's soft and comfortable, and it's fucking warm.

"Dad! Junko, did you throw that old monk down? Li Lin blinked and looked at Li Xiao, his big eyes full of innocence.

"Yes! Because he lied to his father, he was thrown down by Junko. In the future, when you meet those who deceive you, do the same to them. Don't look at them pitiful and forgive, because if they lie to you the first time, there will definitely be a second time. The only way to stop him from lying to you is to send him to Hades. ”

"Oh! I know Dad, but ...... Didn't a monk die to see the Buddha? Li Lin nodded seriously, and then asked a second question.

"Uh......! He couldn't practice at home, and it is estimated that the Buddha did not want to see him. Therefore, he can only go to see Hades. Whether you are hungry or not, I heard that the vegetarian dishes in this Great Mercy and Grace Temple are good, do you want to try them. ”

"Vegetarian?" Li Lin blinked his eyes and asked another question.

"It's a dish without meat." Li Xiao patiently explained to his son.

"There is no meat in the dish, so how can you eat it?" He was a carnivore at a young age, so it's no wonder he looks so strong.

"It makes sense, you can't eat a dish without meat. So let's go drink mutton soup? ”

"I also want to eat a roast leg of lamb, and Junko says that the roast leg of lamb is delicious."

Thousands of soldiers surrounded the Great Mercy and Grace Temple, and the two men were talking seriously about lunch in the abbot's room.

For Li Xiao, the matter of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple has passed. He just needs to leave people behind and take stock of the assets of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple. It takes a lot of money to fight a war in the northwest, and it is much better to get a little out of the hands of these monks and bureaucrats than to collect taxes from the common people.

So the two of them changed into the clothes of the rich man and the young master, quietly left the Great Ci'en Temple, and went to the local Muslim Street under the guidance of Nian Yousheng, which is said to be the most authentic in the whole northwest.

In addition, there is roasted whole lamb for sale here, but Li Lin is worried about roast lamb legs.

Nian Yousheng can be regarded as trying his best to tie up this handsome, which is a big backer. Zhenba stammered, and it was a matter of minutes to become the richest man in Guanzhong or even Northwest in the future.

I heard that the fifth master in the capital, who called for wind and rain and was worth a huge fortune, was just a small follower under the handsome. Nian Yousheng felt that the rest of his life and the future of the Nian family were all tied to this young man. Perhaps, and the child he was holding in his hand.

"Handsome! This is my family's ancestral business, and I don't feel at ease when you eat outside, so it's better to eat in your own restaurant. Waiting for Li Xiao and Li Lin to enter the room and sit down, Nian Yousheng bowed down and spoke.

"Huh! Your kid still hides his heart, okay, I'll let you get your wish once in a few days. But on the good food, we are both hungry. Li Xiao nodded, Nian Yousheng had this preparation, and he must have discussed it with Shunzi and Sun Xing in advance. Otherwise, if you lend him a few guts, you won't dare to bring them with you.

Few people dare to invite a big man like Li Xiao to dinner, even if he has a bad stomach, the person who treats him can't eat and walk around. Inviting someone of Li Xiao's level to dinner is more like putting a knife on the neck of the whole family to entertain guests. This kind of psychological pressure is not something that anyone can bear.

Nian Yousheng really put his mind down, I don't know what means he used, and today he actually invited all the chefs from all the houses.

Ancient and modern fragrant sesame cakes, Liu Jiazhuan buns, Northwest Yilan hand-baked buns, halal Lama sandwich buns, fragrant tooth shortbread, orchard red bean persimmon cake, Western Regions egg bread, Baixiang sweets, mugwort stone buns, Fan Ji fresh bean dumplings, Li Sister rice cakes, Wang family leek cakes ......!

It took only half an hour before and after, and it was actually a big table. In order to take care of Li Xiao and Li Lin, they are all small shares. A small plate and a portion, let two people try as many authentic Xi'an snacks as possible.

In the end, it was only by a guy with a curly beard. He walked up with a silver platter, and on top of it was a leg of lamb roasted and buttery.

Li Xiao knew at a glance that this guy should be a Uyghur from the Western Regions.

In today's Western Regions, the Uyghurs are in the south and in the north. Although the Uyghurs also live by herding, their combat power is far inferior to that of the brave and warlike Dzungar Mongols. If it weren't for the fact that Mongolia's main attention has been focused on the Ming Dynasty over the years, the Uyghurs would have been annexed by the Mongols and become vassals long ago.

The bearded creature was frighteningly skilled in his knifework, the knife in his hand was shining silver, and a leg of mutton turned into a bare lamb bone under the shadow of the knife. The bones were clean, not even a shred of flesh. The cut leg of lamb is fine, evenly proportioned, and the thickness is consistent. The presentation is also very particular, and the meat can even be put together in the shape of a leg of lamb.

According to the viciousness of Li Xiao's eyes, this guy has not cut mutton for twenty years, and it will definitely not be at this level.

took a bite of lamb shank, and it was really fat but not greasy, thin but not firewood.

In fact, there are several ways to roast this lamb!

Han Chinese roast lamb shank is usually sliced from the leg of lamb and then roasted on a charcoal stove with iron mesh. When the meat is cooked, it is eaten with seasoning. This is a Chinese-style barbecue!

The Mongolian roast sheep is more unrestrained, and the whole sheep is hung on the rack after being killed. While roasting, it requires constant shaking, and another person pours honey water and other seasoning water on the sheep. The mutton is roasted layer by layer, sliced layer by layer, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and has a good taste. It's just that this kind of roasting method is a great test for the knife work of the sheep people.

The Uyghur people in the Western Regions roast whole sheep is another roasting method!

They put the sheep in a cellar and roasted them, and in this way they could even roast camels.

The leg of lamb in front of me is undoubtedly roasted by this method of cellar roasting. Li Xiao tasted it, and it tasted like red willow barbecue.

When sprinkled with cumin, the leg of lamb tastes very good. It's just a pity that the two of them ate too much before. Now that his stomach is full, Li Lin doesn't eat after two bites. Instead, he played with glass balls on a Persian carpet with a child about his age.

"I'm full!" Li Xiao touched his belly, which was a little supportive. After coming to Xi'an for a few days, I ate the most unproductive today. Don't blame Li Xiao, these snacks are all the best snacks in Xi'an. Today, there is something special to make, which can be described as excellence. Not to mention Li Xiao, even the emperor Lao Tzu may not be able to bear it.

"Handsome! If you are tired, the villain will prepare a room for you to rest. Nian Yousheng bowed to the side and asked for instructions.

Li Xiao didn't pay attention to Nian Yousheng, but looked at the two children who were playing well with interest. Li Lin has lived on Changxing Island since he was a child, and when he arrived in the capital for safety, he also lived in a deep house compound, and it was rare for such friends to play with.

Now the two children are sitting on the carpet and playing with the glass balls very happily. With innocent laughter, it came into Li Xiao's ears from time to time.

Li Xiao's heart moved, and he pointed to the child who was playing with Li Xiao: "Whose child is this, he looks strange and cute." ”

"Back to the words of the handsome! This child is the grandson of the villain, named Qianyao! Hearing Li Xiao ask, Nian Yousheng hurriedly bowed down and replied. also pressed his grandson to the ground and kowtowed to Li Xiao!

"Oh! Nian Qianyao ......! Good name. Li Xiao couldn't help but look carefully at the child in front of him.
