Li Tai stayed in the Hebatsheng Manor for another day, and had a preliminary understanding of Hebatsheng's trilogy industry, but he did not immediately start to take over the relevant affairs.

Hades is easy to see, but the little ghosts are difficult, and now Li Tai knows this truth very well.

Whether the business conditions of the family are good or bad, since they can be maintained for so many years, there must be a set of personnel and methods. Sudden changes will inevitably lead to a series of resistance and opposition.

Li Tai has just fought with the big families in the township, and now he has no patience and energy to participate in other people's house fights.

If he rushes to the front line to suppress and resolve those conflicts, even if everything is in the interests of He Batsheng, it will inevitably intensify the contradictions, and even affect the friendship and relationship with He Batsheng in serious cases, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Therefore, he did not immediately propose any major plans, but agreed to take some time to inspect these manor properties with He Batsheng, and then make relevant plans. It is also to give He Batsheng a certain amount of time to deal with the discordant voices in family affairs.

After staying in Chaoyi for two days, Li Tai and his entourage returned to Huazhou first.

"Ah Pan came back just in time, there is a surprise waiting for you at home!"

Knowing that Li Tai had returned, Gao Zhongmi walked out of the front hall, took Li Tai's hand and pretended to be mysterious.

Li Tai was still suspicious here, and Gao Bailing walked up with two servants, one in front of the other and one behind him, carrying a wooden box several meters long.

"Thirteen Lang, guess what's in this wooden box?"

Gao Bailing walked to the front, and also pointed to the wooden box carried by the two and sold it.

Li Tai saw the appearance of this pair of masters and servants, and saw that although the length of this wooden box was not small, it was narrow, and his heart moved, so he said, "Could it be that what kind of good soldier is it?" ”

Gao Bailing laughed when he heard this, motioned to the two servants to put down the wooden box, stepped forward and opened the wooden box and said: "At the beginning of the month, Daxingtai summoned the lord to ask about the disease, and the lord only asked for the old Situ Gong's old lance, and he wanted to give it to Thirteen Lang to encourage Lang Jun to make meritorious contributions here!" ”

When Li Tai heard this, his mood suddenly became a little excited. He didn't want to have a special admiration for Gao Aocao like his predecessor, but he was also quite looking forward to the horse lance used by Gao Aocao, the famous general of the Three Kingdoms.

The wooden box was opened, lined with silk cotton, and a black, flashing horse lance lay horizontally, revealing a thick sense of solemnity.

Gao Zhongmi bent down and grabbed the horse lance with both hands, his eyes suddenly reddened slightly, his fingers rubbed the thick lance, and said in a trembling voice: "When I said goodbye before the court, I didn't know that this was a farewell...... Now we meet again, but we are losing things! ”

He couldn't bear to look at his brother's old things anymore, held them in front of Li Tai with both hands, and said in a low tone: "The old things are not precious, but they are made by my brother's own hands." I know that Ah Pan, you have always admired Ao Cao, and I will give you his old things! ”

"Thank you, thank you uncle for your love, I will definitely cherish and maintain the old Situ Gong!"

Li Tai hurriedly raised his hands and lowered his head and said.

But when his hands touched the thick and smooth lance, Gao Zhongmi did not let go immediately, but continued to condense and say: "The weapons of the dead, ominous things, must be fed with blood!" I am losing my mind today, and it is difficult to retaliate against the deep hatred in the sea of blood, but Ah Pan, you are young and ambitious, I only ask and implore you, if there is an opportunity in the coming year, please be sure to drink it with the blood of He Liuhun and his son! ”

Gao Zhongmi's hatred for Gao Huan's father and son can be described as deep-seated, but Li Tai, who knew the future development, understood that it was not easy to achieve this goal.

Not to mention that Gao Huan is already very difficult to control, and now he has no power in Western Wei to speak of, and it is almost impossible to use Gao Aocao's old lance to kill his eldest brother and eldest nephews who have never met.

But when he saw Gao Zhongmi's eyes flickering with tears and a sad and uncontrollable look, he still nodded heavily and said: "Whether it is righteousness or private feelings, I will accept this and repay it!" Please rest assured, Uncle will use this blade into his flesh and blood in this lifetime! ”

"Good, good...... Apan, pick up the lance! ”

When Gao Zhongmi heard this, tears in his eyes suddenly rolled down, and he handed the long-grown horse lance to Li Tai's hand.

When this horse lance started, Li Tai felt heavy, not only psychologically, but also in the hand.

This horse lance is more than a zhang long, and the lance is several feet long, with eight blades and cold light flashing, which is nearly one meter longer than the ordinary horse lance and weighs more than 20 catties.

The body of the lance is not a solid wood mallet rationed in the army, the outside is a layer of tightly wound filament rubber bands, long-term blood and sweat can no longer see the original color, brown and black condensed background with a layer of meticulous maintenance of oil.

There are slight notches on the surface of the mallet, revealing the fine and compact glulam inside. Whether it is the blood-soaked color or those broken traces, they all record the years of the golden iron horse and heroic battle of this lance owner during his lifetime.

The thick and rough feel of the hand made Li Tai also feel excited, holding the horse lance with both hands and swinging it on the spot, his mind couldn't help but imagine Gao Aocao's peerless majesty of the horse lance, and his heart was more and more swaying and excited.

A number of Hui originally gave Li Tai a military standard horse lance, but Li Tai felt that the weight was too light, so after practicing for a while, he transferred it to Li Yantou. And the horse lance that Gao Aocao made and used with his own hands is a little heavier than his current arm strength level.

But Li Tai didn't plan to transfer it to others again, and if his strength and skills didn't match, he would continue to practice. In the coming year, if you go into battle to kill the enemy with the old lance of Gao Aocao, you will have a great sense of superiority psychologically, and you even plan to pass it on from generation to generation.

It is true that a good horse lance can be preserved for tens or hundreds of years as long as it is properly maintained, but the horse lance is mainly popular before the Tang Dynasty, especially during the Wei and Jin dynasties. It is not easy to fight a good lance, the battlefield is its belonging, and it is rare to accompany the funeral. After five generations, the horse lance gradually declined and became extinct.

Therefore, the real thing of the horse lance in later generations is extremely rare, and if the horse lance in Li Tai's hand can be passed on to future generations, even if it is not a national treasure-level cultural relic, it is enough to make some people who are fascinated by the history of ancient wars crazy!

Li Tai couldn't put it down, and even had some urgent impulses in his heart to see it drink blood, which may be the spiritual nature of the material and the influence of the murderer on people's minds.

He shook his head, dispelling some of the overly bloody imaginary images in his mind, and carefully placed the horse lance back into the wooden box, secretly hoping that the weapon would not be dusted for too long.

The group returned to the middle hall and sat down, and Gao Zhongmi ordered the servants to serve meals, although it was no longer as rich as Li Tai's first meal in Huazhou, but it was also a good combination of meat and vegetables, which showed that the family's livelihood had greatly improved.

After all, Shangyuan's manor has initially achieved some business results, although there has not yet been a seasonal harvest on the acres of land, but Li Tai went to the countryside to buy daily necessities and send them back to the city, and he no longer has to be exploited by local tyrants and profiteers such as Liu Heng.

After the meal, Gao Zhongmi spoke first: "A month ago, Daxingtai summoned me to Chang'an in September, and intended to transfer me to the post of Taiwei to participate in the October Grand Parade. ”

Li Tai had already heard He Batsheng mention this, and after hearing this, he nodded and said, "Congratulations to Uncle on his new ascension!" ”

Before the reform of the six-official system, the Western Wei Dynasty still pursued the official position of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Although most of the eight dukes are high-ranking officials, their ranks are also high and low, although Taiwei and Situ belong to the lower three dukes, their status is in front of Situ.

Gao Zhongmi didn't have much joy for promotion, but shook his head and sighed: "Seong Dema, how do you know if it's a disaster?" I am in the Western Dynasty, I have not made an inch, and I have been awarded many honors, how can I not attract jealousy? ”

This is true, although both Situ and Taiwei are just imaginary titles with no real power, but after all, the status is there. In officialdom, who is willing to stand behind others and eat fart?

At present, in the court of the Western Wei Dynasty, among the villagers of Yuwentai in Beizhen, only one of them holds the high position of the Eight Princes, He Basheng, as the Taishi, and Wang Meng as the Taibao.

Needless to say, He Batsheng's prestige and status are not to be said, Wang Meng is Yuwentai's own uncle, these two are in the upper ranks, and no one dares to say anything.

Gao Zhongmi initially surrendered as a tiger prison and was named Situ by the Western Wei Dynasty. This is nothing, one is that the Tiger Prison is of great significance to the Western Wei Dynasty, and the other is also to give the Eastern Wei Dynasty eye medicine, after all, Gao Aocao is Situ in the Eastern Wei Dynasty.

But now that the tiger prison has been lost, the fiasco of Bishan has made people feel distressed so far, and then Gao Zhongmi has been promoted to a captain, which will inevitably make people a little angry. The huge disparity between fame and power will inevitably bury hidden dangers.

But sorrow is one thing, since this is what Yuwentai meant, Gao Zhongmi has no room for objection at all.

"Uncle Shi is very important, he is in such a high position, he is kind to others, and he will not touch the public grievances."

Li Tai thought about it, and could only comfort Gao Zhongmi like this. The situation is stronger than people, and since the situation is inferior to people, of course, we must also be patient.

But whether this will be safe and sound, Li Tai can't say. The small court of the Western Wei Dynasty was in a mess, and just watching it from the side made people feel a little frightened.

For example, a number of Hui who were going to serve as the assassin of Qinzhou before, but before he could take office, he was appointed as the assassin of Beihuazhou, and no longer went to Longyou to fight with Dugu Xin.

Li Tai didn't know that history was like this, or he was fanned by this little butterfly, and when he asked about the details of He Batsheng's interior, he just waved his hand and didn't say anything.

"Of course I understand the truth, but sometimes, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, which is really helpless."

Gao Zhongmi sighed at first, and then said with some embarrassment: "Before, Ah Pan, you looked up to the Taishi Heba and punished the rebellious villagers, which was really wonderful, and I didn't have such a business strategy for myself. Now there is another hidden danger in the door, I want you to refer to it for me, how to deal with it? ”

When Li Tai heard this, he immediately smelled the smell of pig teammates going online, and hurriedly said, "Between me and my uncle, what else can't be said?" Uncle has something, it's okay to tell him directly! One person counts short, and everyone counts long. ”
