The Cao Mansion is not very luxurious, but it is not easy in Pei County. After all, there are people with names and surnames in these years, and they are all ancestors who have been generous. Ordinary Qianshou only has a name at most, where does it come from?

Wang Jian secretly rejoiced in his heart, and was already planning.

Pushing open the heavy wooden door, Cao Xiu walked in.

The garden is planted with willow trees and an eye pond. The water is clear and you can see fish frolicking. There were also two yellow dogs wagging their tails and coming forward to curry favor, and when they saw the stranger, they immediately bared their teeth.

Cao Xiu waved his hand, and the yellow dog left in a funny way.

"I've seen Shaojun."

The maid came and bowed.

"Take these two beggars to the backyard for a bath and change their clothes. Then let the cook prepare more meals, two plates of meat. ”

"Yui."

The maid raised her hand and retreated, leading the two away.

……

When the two of them washed and changed their clothes, they had an aristocratic temperament. Especially the young boy who fainted from hunger is even more impressive. Every gesture is carried with a condescending majesty.

Sitting on a chair, looking at Cao Xiu.

"Xiu'er, you live in this mansion?"

Qin Shi Huang swayed from side to side on a bamboo chair. This thing is really strange, crunching but interesting, he has never seen it in Xianyang.

Listening to the servant's mention, it seems that Cao Xiu thought about it?

It's a clever young man!

It is indeed very comfortable to sit on it, much better than kneeling on the straw mat, but the crotch is a little cold and not very beautiful.

Cao Xiu looked at the little beggar like this, smiled and nodded.

After all, it's just a child, and it's normal to play hard.

"What about your parents?"

"How many of the protagonists at the starting point are not orphans?"

"Sa?!"

Qin Shi Huang's face was full of question marks.

What is the ...... Why didn't he understand?

Cao Xiu sighed and didn't bother to explain.

Eighteen years ago, he was born in Dangjun. At that time, it was the troubled times of the Warring States Period, and he lived a life of exile. When his mother gave birth to him, he had a difficult birth and fell ill. My father travels all year round, saying that he is doing business.

Afterward...... He's dead.

Later, because of the war, he moved to Pei County to settle down. Relying on the relief of distant relatives, he survived. You must know that the Cao family is a well-known existence in Pei County, and it is slightly worse than the Xiao family.

Cao Xiu's cousin, that is, the future famous Cao Xiangguo Cao Shen, the founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty. After Liu Bang set the capital of Chang'an, he was rewarded for meritorious deeds, Cao Shengong ranked second, and was awarded the title of Marquis of Pingyang!

The so-called Xiao Gui Cao Sui is talking about Cao Shen.

After that, Cao Xiu began to do some small business. Relying on Cao's support behind his back, he earned a little money.

The year before last, the Qin State annexed the world and recruited village officials. Cao Xiu successfully passed the assessment and served as the head of the Surabaya Pavilion. That's right, that's what Liu Bang did in history. It's just that in that assessment, he beat Liu Bang.

To be precise, it should be called Liu Ji now.

With money, Cao Xiu did not forget the last wish of her deceased mother. Sometimes, when he encounters displaced people, he will also contribute money to support them. There was a great drought in the world before, and I don't know how many people sold their sons and daughters. In fact, they are not willing to give it, but if they don't sell it, the whole family will starve to death!

It's better to sell it to the Cao family, at least you can survive.

Besides, Cao Xiu was notoriously good at treating slaves. Not to mention three meals a day, there is also a salary. Even if you do something wrong, you will only be scolded twice. The neighbors of Pei County often say that going to work in Caofu is not a sin, but a blessing.

Therefore, Cao Xiucai was willing to help these two little beggars.

For him, it's just a gesture.

Of course, he is also preparing for the future.

It won't be long before the world is about to be in chaos. He now helps the poor and adopts orphans, just to make a name for himself. At the same time, it is also to accumulate strength!

These orphans can be used as cronies in the future!

After the death of the First Emperor, it is the time for him to leave the mountain!

Princes and generals, rather have a kind!

Liu Bang can be the emperor, why can't he be?

Liu Bang is from Pei County, and so is he!

Liu Bang is the pavilion chief, and so is he!

Moreover, Cao Xiu also knows the future direction of history!

Over the years, he has attracted quite a few people. For example, his cousin Cao Shen served as the prison governor of Pei County. His teacher is also a friend of Xiao He, serving as the chief official.

His rider Xiahou Ying served as the stableman.

And his dog meat friend, Fan Xu!

His subordinate, the future Marquis Zhou Bo.

Zhou Bo was born poor, made a living by weaving thin songs, and often bragged about the funeral. Later, he excelled in military service and became a reserve soldier who could draw a hard bow.

Cao Xiu saw that he was capable, so he took it for his own use. Let him secretly help train the private soldiers to die, and he is doing quite well.

It can be said that he made friends with most of the founding heroes of the Western Han Dynasty. These are also the capital of his future troubles!

·……

"By the way, do you two have a name?"

"Old man, Marquis Wucheng Wang Qian."

"I ......"

Cao Xiu raised his hand to interrupt the two of them to speak, and suddenly became angry.

"If you dare to talk nonsense, don't blame me! In this way, you can call Xiao Wang. Your words...... Let's call it Ah Zheng! ”

“……”

“……”

Wang Jian didn't know why, he always felt weird.

Qin Shi Huang had a strange face and was silent. This term has not been used for a long time. When he was young, his mother called him Ah Zheng.

"Also, you kid keep an eye on it, don't call yourself me every day. It doesn't matter if I call myself before, after all, anyone can use it. Now that the world is all under Great Qin, the First Emperor calls himself me, can we use it? ”

Yes, this is also a decree from two years ago. Previously, I was just a synonym for 'I'. For example, Qu Yuan's divorce began with me as his self-proclaimed: Emperor Gaoyang's Miao descendant, and Emperor I called Boyong.

Cao Xiu named this childish child Zheng, and he also had this intention.

After calling himself right, he also said the past.

……

"You two will keep me here first, and I will give you the entire household registration in two days. Do some work in my house, and I won't starve you. ”

"As for Xianyang...... Don't think about it yet. ”

Cao Xiu is not stupid, it takes two thousand miles from Peixian to Xianyang. And there are no roads in these years, many roads are mountain roads. Even if you take a carriage, it will take at least half a month. If you're unlucky enough to meet a bandit, you may have to give an account for your life.

"That's it!"

Qin Shi Huang is old-fashioned, he has experienced too many winds and waves in his life. He was confronted by Zhao after he was born and almost died at the age of three. In order to return to Qin, I don't know how many sinisters I have experienced.

He ascended the throne at the age of thirteen and crowned at the age of twenty.

Kill Chang Yu and depose Lü Buwei and put down the Cheng Chan rebellion.

Finally, destroy the six countries and sweep the world!

Since he was still alive, he couldn't fall that day!

"Gollum ......"

The majesty just now was fleeting.

Qin Shi Huang's face was embarrassed, and Wang Jian next to him got up with great interest, "I hope to forgive me, it was the old man's stomach that screamed just now." ”

"Don't pretend, I can't hear this voice?" Cao Xiu looked at these two rammed eyes with disdain, and said helplessly, "I'm hungry, right?" ”

"Grass, grass...... Bring the food to you! ”
