"What does this mean? Although I am stupid, I also understand the truth that no merit is not lost. Hasegawa Hayato sat in front of the desk, wrinkled his eyebrows and stared, looked down at the money, and then looked up at the people, feeling that he was a monk who was eating fast, and he didn't know which one of the high masters was making trouble?

Not only him, but even Aoki Daizen, who was sitting on the side, didn't know what to do.

"Without him! This is the money for you to settle down, how about going to the village tomorrow after the stick is finished? Gao Shisheng walked to the door and put on his shoes before he said meaningfully.

Hasegawa Hayato shook his head again and again, and excused himself again and again,

"Why wouldn't you?"

"Villain, the name is in the military, how can he go to the village to work as an errand again, the parents in the family are old, and they also need someone to serve them." This is actually just a pretext, the two only met today, and they are not familiar with each other, "courtesy to others, there must be something to ask."

Hasegawa Hayato didn't know what the other party wanted, and how could he dare to agree easily.

Gao Shisheng was not forced, and said step by step: "Although the errand service is cheap, it is especially good to collect money to support the family, isn't it better than going around to help others····· Even if it's for the sake of parents, wives and children...... You're going to have to think about it again tonight......"

………………

After saying goodbye to Hasegawa's house, the frustration in Gao Shisheng's heart was very strong.

In his heart, he is satisfied with Hayato's performance, and his character is also his temper.

Originally, he thought that a child from a famous martial arts family like himself, as long as he was willing to open his mouth to solicit, Hasegawa Hayato, a small ashigaru, would definitely be eager to lean over, take refuge under the door, and run for work, but it was really unexpected for him to be politely rejected.

Hasegawa Hayato didn't agree to go to the village to be on duty, and naturally he wouldn't accept him copper coins, and the two pushed again and again, only to reluctantly accept a few hundred pieces of money, and they didn't want anything for the whole copper coin.

The night was dark, and because he didn't know when the two of them would leave the village, the village elder specially arranged for someone to wait at the gate so that they could open the door.

After thanking the villagers who had been waiting for a long time, he returned the same way under the leadership of Aoki Daizen, went out of the village and turned onto the village road.

Aoki Daizen has a straightforward temperament, not a person who can hide problems, and wondered why Gao Shisheng would recklessly reveal the meaning of "solicitation" to Hasegawa Hayato, and then couldn't help but ask: "Zhuangtou, you and Hasegawa are just meeting for the first time, they didn't know each other before, and he is just a shigaru, not a samurai, why do you ............?"

"Fu Thief wants to ask me why I want to recruit him, right?"

"Yes!"

"Fu Thief has been in the village for a long time, what do you think Hasegawa Hayabusa should behave?"

"Brave and uneducated, faithful to others, and very filial." Aoki Daizen knows a little about Hasegawa Hayato, and his evaluation is pertinent and realistic, neither belittled nor exalted.

"Then I am willing to recruit a brave and faithful filial son to serve Junfu, what's so strange?" This sentence is not the answer to the question, and it is ambiguous.

Aoki was silent again, obviously hearing that this was purely perfunctory, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, and couldn't help but retort: "If it's just to him, why keep money for him." ”

The exaltation is not a lie.

Although the servants were lowly and the annual service was so low that it was outrageous and difficult to make a living, on the other hand, if the servants really expected to live on the little service land they rented in the year, they would have starved to death.

As the lowest level of the public on behalf of the authority of the Junfu, the servants of the Zhuang Office actually have quite a lot of power, and there are a lot of oil and water in the open and secret, and the servants are often fathers, sons, uncles and nephews, and they are passed on privately, for example, the three Kimura brothers are staring at the class of the older generation in the family, and they want to take a short of errands, and they have always had to bribe the head of the village, where is the time when the head of the village gives money to ask someone to be.

The "money" that the merchants have to pay every month, and the vendors who buy and sell in the temple town also have to pay every month, and it adds up to at least two or three thousand bad money. Even if the head of the village and the thief want to take most of it, the rest of the people will have at least 200 yuan in their pockets.

Just looking at today's murder case, one of the most ordinary errand servants came to the scene and didn't do anything, so Zenko-in obediently took 500 yuan of "foot money" to come out to pay respect, which was the top half of the money.

When the monk of Meichuan Temple and the Nagata Mori family came to the village to pay the fine, at least one person had to give this amount, and the monk wanted to carry the body back for burial, and he had to give an additional amount of thanks, as a cost of care.

For example, when a prisoner is caught, the family of the criminal has to give money to the person being bundled; The prisoner is untied and guarded, and the unrope is paid; Prisoners who are pressed to serve hard labor must be given money for the road, money, and water and drink; Writing documents for the villagers requires paper money, and even the executions and beatings have to give the executioners steam money... There are many names, and there are countless names.

According to the market, it is not cheap to let Aoki Daizen's thirty sticks show mercy, at least one stick will give a bad money.

Because there are too many exploits, the villagers are ruled by the village elders unless they have to, and the servants can really get their hands on it, and there are not many opportunities to extort bribes, but by the end of the year, when the accounts of the village are calculated, they can always get seven or eight foreign money, which is much stronger than the families of the people in Qianshou.

"Is it not the fault of the village to rule the people who are in distress? Besides, the copper coin was originally a bribe given to me by Zenko-in, and it was ill-gotten gains, and I used the ill-gotten gains for righteousness, shouldn't that be the case? Gao Shisheng said righteousness and strictness, as if he was really sympathizing with the people of Qianshou, life is not easy.

Seeing that he was still talking nonsense and perfunctory himself, Aoki Dashan couldn't help but be unhappy, and said: "The head of the village should be sincere and kind, but the most important thing in the entire Pingshan Village is the poor, let me come and see the ......" sneered and continued: "The little money given by the monks, I'm afraid it's not enough!" ”

This is already very polite, and it is quite a direct irony that Gao Shisheng accepted bribes and wanted to sell his reputation and invite people to buy people's hearts.

"If you can help one person, you will be one person. Pay the thief to know that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step; The nine-storey platform starts from the soil. Gao Shisheng was not angry, and still replied unhurriedly: "In terms of relatives and relatives, I should also help the military service first, and then other people, what Fu Shi said is also reasonable, I should go back and think about it...... If there is a way to pay the thief, I hope to give advice. ”

After a few short words of argument, there was silence between the two, and Gao Shisheng was also very helpless, since Aoki Dashan didn't want to say more, he could only go, so the two had to continue to hurry.

Aoki Daizen's intuition is very right, Gao Shisheng really wants to invite people's hearts, and he has other plans.

Aoki Daizen asked bluntly, but he couldn't answer bluntly.

"Shallow and deep, a gentleman is taboo", Mo said that he and Aoki Dashan are just general friends who have only met today, even if they are really familiar at first sight, they are far from being able to put their hearts in their hearts.

Gao Shisheng doesn't know much about the history of the Warring States Period, but he only learned about it through games, and he had an era name called Tianwen, and a lot of big things happened.

If the astronomical era can be said to be a coincidence, then, after hearing the names of Imagawa Yoshimoto, Takeda Shingen, and Hojo Shiyasu, and the frequent wars due to the expansion of the country, I confirmed that I had indeed arrived in the Warring States Troubled Era.

The first thing I saw was Imagawa Yoshimoto, as the eldest son of the Toe Gao clan, when he was eight years old, he replaced his nominal brother, the actual younger brother Taro Maru, and went to Sunfu Castle to serve as a "parasitic son".

One replacement was five years, and five years later, Taro Maru Motofu, he did not return home, but was left in Sunfu Castle as a small attendant to continue to serve the public, until three years ago, he replaced an old samurai who had retired and was promoted to the same heart.

The battle between the barrels and the narrow was getting closer and closer to him before he knew it, but the days were approaching.

In the twenty-third year of the Astronomical Text, the Zen master Taiyuan Yukisai, who was known as the black-clothed prime minister of the Imagawa family, worked hard for a long time, and the three families of Takeda, Hojo, and Imagawa met at Zentokuji Temple and signed the "Koshojun Alliance", which determined the strategic policy of Takeda to take Nobuyo, Hojo to fight Kanto, and Imagawa to attack Omi.

The Imagawa family implements "sending relatives and sending children", and Gao Shisheng, as the eldest son, is likely to go out with the army. If he went out as an ordinary samurai, even if he did not die directly on the spot, after the defeat, it was unlikely that he would escape safely from Owari back to Enoe.

Not to mention the pursuit of the Oda army, the warrior hunter along the way is enough to ask for Gao Shisheng's seven or eight lives.

One person is alone, and three people are many. After figuring out this section, he immediately found a way to resign from his position as a member of the concentric people of Junfu Castle and asked to be sent back to his hometown in Fuji County in Enjiang Province to serve as the acting official of the village.

Although the status of the village official is low, he can take over the samurai in the ground, and his military service is light, and even if he is really selected in the future, he will go out to the end. As long as he recruits samurai with his heart and tries to win him over, the possibility of survival will naturally increase greatly if there are those samurai on the battlefield to protect him.

Therefore, as soon as he saw Hasegawa Hayato, he was hoped, brave and filial to his parents, and the word filial piety was already connected, and he was loyal and filial to his sons since ancient times. Naturally, he wants to recruit his subordinates, be an errand doorman, and then indirectly win over more people to convince himself.

Not only Hasegawa himself, but even Nagata Mori wanted to also win over and sell his life.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the thief next to him, in Gao Shisheng's heart, he actually wanted to win over the two masters and apprentices of Aoki Dashan the most.

First of all, the master and apprentice are extremely powerful, which he had heard of when he was in Junfu City, and it is not the kind of "bravery" that the ronin boasted of each other, and he has been a "heart stick" for a long time, and he is the most clear about how to protect the safety of his employer, but the most important thing is that Aoki Daizen once served as a retainer of the Hojo family, the overlord of the eight states in Kanto, although he was finally exiled by Kaige, but at least it also proved that he could be included in the Hojo family, and he had some ability.

He frequently showed favor to Hasegawa Hayato, to a large extent, he wanted to show it to Aoki Daizen, so that he could know how "thirsty for talent" he was, but this performance was done for the blind man.

I don't know if Aoki Daizen didn't understand it at all, or if he deliberately pretended to be deaf and dumb after he understood it.
