Chapter 047 [Year-end Meeting] The final chapter of this article
I'm Liu Bei.
In the past month, Hua Xiong's martial arts have greatly improved under Guan Yu's guidance.
After I recovered from my injury, I also began to practice the double-strand sword spectrum, and every time I told Guan Yu about the theory on the sword spectrum, he always pretended to think about something else. When he told Zhang Fei, he was ridiculous. I was expecting them to be able to give me some advice, but I could only cultivate by myself.
Every morning, I got up and took the best sword in the valley to the back of the clan to practice martial arts. First do a hundred push-ups, then a hundred thigh-raises, then run intermittently for a quarter of an hour. These three items are the best way to practice your movement speed. I heard that Liu Xiang and Donnie Yen practiced like this.
Next is the time to practice swordsmanship. The sword moves of the sword spectrum are strange and do not have specific moves like tai chi. It's just a blind emphasis on speed. And the sword moves above are to make cultivators familiar with the control of the sword. A series of actions such as splitting, stabbing, pulling, swinging, knocking, plucking, etc., the head of the practice is bigger.
Every time he practiced swords, he would stay in the mountains for a whole day, during which Bailiru would bring delicious meals at the right time. Then wait for dusk to go down the mountain together. When I returned to the house, I would find the "Thirteen Chapters of Sun Tzu" and study it carefully.
Time passed little by little.
Four months later, the inauguration ceremony of the patriarch that the third grandfather had prepared with great care finally arrived. The day of this day happened to be the Spring Festival, the great summer calendar festival issued by the Han court.
In the five months since the reform, the vitality of the valley has been significantly more vigorous than before. The mud and straw houses where the Gu people used to live have been torn down and brick houses have been built. From the mountains, there is a prosperous atmosphere.
Today is the first day of the new year, and after the ceremony, the ten elders will be called to the clan hall for a meeting.
"Elders have had a hard time in the past year. A lot of things happened in the valley last year, and you did your best. For this reason, Elder Shan, who was in charge of the treasury, had been ordered to receive ten gold as a reward from the people at the end of the meeting. The patriarch hopes to send more to you next year. ”
"Patriarch Xie." The crowd replied.
These ten gold are already a lot, and each elder's monthly dedication is only one gold. The year-end bonus is believed to be high enough for the current situation.
"Second brother, let's talk about the progress of military construction in the valley first." The question I am most concerned about is whether the valley can adapt to the future development or not, and it all depends on this.
"The military construction of the outer rim of the canyon has been completed. The training of the army is ongoing, and it is barely able to meet the requirements of combat at the moment. ”
Guan Yu's words have never been many, they are concise and concise, and they are very clear to hear. Now the canyon can be said to have become half a golden soup. The combat quality of the armed forces has also been raised to a higher level, and the new military system is operating normally, and no major problems have arisen.
praised at the moment: "The second brother has worked hard. Third brother, the houses in the valley are well built, not only of good quality, but also beautiful and generous, and quite artistic. ”
Only then did I remember that Zhang Fei is good at painting beauties and is considered an artist. No wonder the houses are built with such a sense of hierarchy. If it is in the 21st century, it is definitely a big real estate developer.
"Big brother, my house-building work is an ancestral one." Zhang Fei said with a smile. When he said this, he understood why he was a small landowner.
Elder Shan then reported that the economy in the valley was also rising. The rest of the elders also reported that things were all right in the valley.
Finally, he asked the third grandfather: "How is the armor built?" ”
The third grandfather said excitedly: "I have built 10,000 sets." ”
That's an impressive speed. However, it will not meet the needs of the future. 10,000 sets in five months, only 120,000 sets in five years, how can I buy a lot of special purchases? It's not enough to give Yuan Shu one, how can you give Yuan Shao and Cao Cao?
For this reason, it is planned to build three armories and six iron houses early next year, and this matter will be handed over to Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei and the third grandfather suddenly said that there were not enough people. After thinking about it carefully, he ordered Deng Mao to go outside the valley to recruit displaced people after the New Year, the more the better. The displaced people all settled in the White Snake Village, and those who were willing to stay for a long time were incorporated into the household registration of the tribesmen, assigned houses, distributed food, and joined the iron-striking team; Those who are only for a short stay will be provided with food and lodging, and their wages will be doubled, and they will be assigned to the defense construction team.
When it was dispersed, Ting Baihu proposed to build a school hall. He was a man of learning, and he left the matter to him.
I pulled Guan Yu and Zhang Fei into the room and said, "Second brother, third brother." We are righteous brothers, blessed and shared, and here are two hundred taels of gold, and you will take them and add some servants. If you can, take a concubine to save one person from being lonely. ”
When it came to emotional matters, Zhang Fei was speechless. Only Guan Yu squeaked and said: "The big thing has not been done, we don't want this." ”
"Good! We'll talk about that later. I came to you to hear your opinions. ”
"What's the opinion?" The two asked.
"Now that everything is stable in the canyon, big brother I want to go outside and see if I can make some capable people and prepare for the future."
"What the eldest brother said is very true, there is no day to get ahead if you stay here." Guan Yu said.
"Then we will go out of the valley after the New Year." Zhang Fei said excitedly.
"That's it. Leave the affairs of the clan to Grandpa and Elder Shan to take care of it on your behalf, do you have any opinions? ”
"The third grandfather regards you as his own grandson, of course there is no problem. Elder Shan......" Guan Yu said in a hesitant manner.
"We are brothers, there is nothing we can't say."
"On the day of Zhao Youfu's rebellion, Elder Shan suddenly turned against him. Although he said that it was a countermeasure designed with Elder Baili, Elder Baili had already returned to heaven. It can be said that there is no proof of death. ”
"I'll ask him if he will go and whether he will surrender sincerely." Zhang Fei shouted.
"Wait. What the second brother said was also right, and there was no proof of death. Whether he is true or not, it is difficult to determine at this time. Just guard against him first, let grandpa act as the patriarch, and Baili Tie and Qiu Ming assist. ”
Sending off Guan Zhang, I feel that crossing over here is not only a kind of luck, but also a kind of training. The 21st century is not the case with such a good environment. Perhaps, the environment is even harsher.
"Brother Bei!"
Bailiru jumped over from the corner, and her reluctant eyes showed that she had eavesdropped on the conversation just now. This Niko doesn't know the secret of my heart at all.
"What's wrong? Why don't you come out of the valley with me? He took her hand and walked out of the clan hall and walked in the garden.
It was cold outside the house, and the cold wind was a bit biting, but it cleared my mind.
In the face of this innocent girl, I didn't have a trace of lewd and crooked thoughts. After getting along for half a year, her innocence, savagery, and innocence have deeply moved me. But I can't talk about love yet, so I don't feel colic in my heart. But it doesn't matter, I can be nice to her. When two people are together, they don't necessarily need love. And two people who have love don't necessarily need to be together.
The Tao is different, and they do not conspire with each other. It's not just about ideals, it's about love. What I want to take is the road of hegemony, but Gan Zhangyun's sister just wants to be an ordinary person. The two of them have very similar personalities, one has been arrogant and carefree since childhood; A person who was born poor and had to take on the responsibilities of the family at a young age to raise his younger brother resulted in two people with different ideals.
told Guan Zhang to go out to find a capable person, in fact, he wanted to find Gan Xiaozhang under an excuse. I don't know if she still lives in Zhang Fei's house.
Bailiru never spoke, snuggling up to my shoulder. Just like that, take a stroll through the garden and feel the warmth in the cold wind.
The mountains in the distance have darkened and only the outlines remain, and the New Year is nearer, and my mind is completely devoid of the joy of the New Year. It's empty, like there's something missing.
I can't help but think of Zhang Weijian's lines again: The cool breeze is exciting, the autumn moon is boundless, and my emotions are like living like a year. Although I am not a jade tree in the wind, chic and dignified......
