The bright colors of the building of the Putian Station are obviously different from the gray Great Wall Station; The specifications of the rice are also different, with salted fish and dried meat. The food utensils are exquisite, the only drawback is that the amount of food is very small, a few gentlemen seem to have nothing, these soldiers can only be at the bottom, so they have to go back to the room and eat the grain quietly.

The next day, they went out of the Great Wall and went straight to the ruined city, and when they passed by Guanyi, they were not alarmed. Entering the ruined city, several gentlemen were busy: measuring, disbursing, recording, and so on. Zheng Anping and the four of them have completely become outsiders and can't interfere at all. After being busy for most of the day, Mr. Lu called four people and said, "The house of the city sergeant is covered with thirty or fifty, and according to the meaning of Weishu and so on, each chooses the one who is near the wall, and attacks and defends two pennies." Zheng Anping understood the mystery, so he had to admit: "What Mr. said must be good!" ”

Mr. Lu led the four people to look at the four foundations and said, "The other four are all two into five." Only Zheng Gongzi can be full of his foundation, and the remaining three sons may be built three. ——However, the sons of Zhu are in important places, and they are in the rank of sergeant, but they can be expanded at that time, and they can choose another place without labor. ”

All four of them said: "Mr. Cheng's words! ”

Mr. Lu pointed to the first room in the south city and Zheng Anping, the first room in the north city and Brother Su, and the east and west rooms with Brother Dog and the fourth brother. Zheng Anping said: "Where does Mr. Cao live? ”

Mr. Lu said: "Mr. Cao is not a scholar, he is not allowed to live alone, and he can also live with a school. ”

Zheng Anping said: "Mr. Cao, Guan Cheng is also homeless? ”

Mr. Lu said: "Who has a home, who has no home, there are regulations, and there is nothing to be done." Mr. Cao has no residence, but he lives in a school, and he can't be abandoned. Zheng Anping saw that Mr. Lu said it categorically, so it was difficult to insist, and secretly said in his heart: I hope Mr. Cao is a good person, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable under the same roof.

Mr. Lu looked at the sky and said, "The sons have no objections, we will return, and when the money and grain are closed, we can start the ground." "Put the tools back on the car, and the group got into the car and went back to the city, entering the Great Wall before the city gate was closed, and returning to the Putianyi. Rest for the night and continue the process the next day. The gentlemen were all discussing the issue of engineering, and Zheng Anping and the four of them didn't understand it at all, so they had to sit on the sidelines. Mr. Lu was very busy, and from time to time he got off the bus and changed to another car, and discussed problems with the corresponding gentleman.

When the car arrived in Donghongli, Zheng Anping didn't dare to get out of the car, I don't know if these weirdos would have questions to ask themselves. But until Juxian Township, no one paid attention to the four of them. This gentleman got out of the car and hugged Shi Lizhuang directly, and the car was led away by some subordinates. Seeing this, the four of them knew that they could also go, but no one could be polite, so they were very unaccustomed to smiling bitterly at each other and leaving each other.

Back at home, Zhang Lu was already waiting at the door. To introduce Zheng Anping into the wing, Zheng Anping said: "Can you cook dinner first?" Hunger in the belly. ”

Zhang Lu asked strangely, "Is there not enough grain?" ”

Zheng Anping said: "Mr. Mingcha, I only have one meal of grain for two days, so I don't want to be hungry!" ”

Zhang Lu said: "The son is also bullied! Mr. Zhu took the two days as the rate, and he was unprepared! ”

Zheng Anping said: "Mr. is prepared, leading us into the nursery and field, the hall is tall, the food utensils are exquisite, there are fish and meat, but the millet is insufficient." ”

Zhang Lu smiled and said, "The way of the noble man also has shortcomings. So he raised the fire and cooked the porridge. Zheng Anping was helping on the side, and the two said as they worked. Zheng Anping said: "Mr. Lu and others, but they have not taken care of their own work. But it refers to the four bases, which are four, and they are the houses of the masters, and the two into five rooms can be built for the son. ”

Zhang Lu said: "Where do the four houses live?" ”

Zheng Anping said: "All face the city wall. Mr. Lu said that those who are close to the wall will attack and defend twice. ”

Zhang Lu said: "If it is true, then its deeds are commendable!" Or build a small city around the mansion, thinking that it is the way to attack and defend. ”

Zheng Anping said: "There are only four of us, how can the Golden City be guarded." ”

Zhang Lu said: "If the army comes to attack, it can't be defended, but if there are three or five thieves, it should be done." ”

During the conversation, the porridge was formed, Zheng Anping filled a big bowl and drank it hot, his whole body was warm and his spirit doubled. Nai said: "But I have a porridge, although the fish and meat can be added!" ”

Zhang Lu said: "Although the son is hungry, he can't be poor and luxurious." When you chew and swallow slowly, you will get the right way. ”

Zheng Anping said: "Sven people have a lot of exquisiteness. ”

Zhang Lu said: "If you don't have Sven, it will be difficult for officialdom to act." ”

The next day, Mr. Cao Bao came to inform that the five of them would each bring 100 coins and go to Guanyi tomorrow to prepare for the hunt. This time, the five of them did not live in the post station, but lived in the reverse brigade in the city. Zheng Anping didn't dare to slack off, and informed the other three people of the news one by one. When he got home, he found time to sort out the halberd.

The next day, in addition to the five people, there was also Mr. Guo. Six people in two rides, straight to Guanyi. According to Cao Bao's arrangement, the four of them did not bring a halberd, but only a halberd; No crossbow arrows, only the bow and arrows equipped on the cart. This time, it was no longer swallowed slowly, and the two cars went out of the countryside, galloping all the way, and it only took two hours to reach the city of Guanyi.

Got off the bus under the city and parked the same car. The city lord hurried out of the city, followed by a group of parents. When he arrived, he bowed down and said, "I don't know that the doctors are here, and they are guilty of capital crimes!" ”

Cao Bao said: "The sacrifice day is imminent, and the ministers are ordered by the king to inspect the hunting and memorial services. ”

The city lord said: "Wei Shu and other rural people have never heard of the sacrifice of the king. May the doctor show us, and we will prepare. ”

Cao Bao said: "We are waiting to come here, and we are about to help you prepare!" But we stayed in the city for five days, and thou shalt leave it. ”

The city lord said: "The small city is poor, and I am afraid that it will be as difficult as the doctor wills." May the doctor show us, and we will do according to the plan. ”

Cao Bao said: "I heard that there are many reverse brigades in the city, and we are willing to stay in the reverse brigade and pay according to the value." ”

Seeing that he couldn't hide, the city lord said, "In this case, please ask the doctor to enter the city." ”

The six of them got out of the car, entered the city, and settled down in the city lord's mansion first. The guest and the host sat down, and the lord of the city ordered to kill a sheep, cook meat and boil corn, and feast on the sons. Cao Bao untied a skin bag from under his waist and said: "Yes, the name of each household, may the city lord correct it, if there is no difference, it can be awarded to each person to hang on his waist." ”

The city lord took the skin bag with trepidation, carefully checked them one by one, and finally said: "Everything that is remembered is correct, and the micro will be issued later." ”

Cao Bao said: "You can call in one by one and award it." ”

The city lord then asked the parents of each family to call the strong men and award them with waist cards one by one. This waist card is exquisitely made, which is very different from the last wooden plaque. After the award, Cao Bao said: "Those who wear this waist card are all in charge of the good people of the city." Be cautious and not disappointed. Those who are strong, if they do not have a waist card, must wear a waist card as a guarantee, before they can enter the city for food and lodging. He waved to the city lord and said, "The city lord is cautious!" ”

The city lord replied: "Don't dare to deceive!" ”

Cao Bao said: "Five days later, he will have a field hunt, and each Ding can bring three sons to go out of the city to help." Whoever gets wild food, he burns it in the wilderness and eats it. Its sacrifice also extends to the wilderness! ”

Everyone said, "Wow! ”

And when the people had withdrew, a feast was set up in the hall. Six foreigners have one meat, two millet, and vegetables. The rest of the parents, one meat, one millet, one vegetable and one vegetable. Although the things are good, the seasoning is incomplete and the cooking is not fine, so Zheng Anping and the others all pinched their noses and reluctantly ate some.

After the feast, the lord of the city led them to a reverse journey. It is said to be a reverse journey, but the house is low, the interior is dim, and there is a faint moisture and musty smell. Zheng Anping said: "Merchants from all over the world, all live in such adverse travel? ”

The city lord said: "The merchant is also good, but for three or five days, or even one or two days, but there is room and board." And the room of Gao Xuan, its price must be high, and the businessman is jealous. Therefore, the city is full of this reversal. ”

Cao Bao explained: "Those who are businessmen are not all gold-rich people, but they are mostly with ministers, traveling far and near in order to have a full meal. ”

Zheng Anping said: "If the lintel is high, will there be more profit?" ”

Cao Bao said: "There is no property in this place. Anyone who lives here is a fine businessman, not a giant businessman. The lintel of the gate is high, and I am afraid that no one will have to live. ”

Zheng Anping didn't understand what Cao Bao said, he just felt that this kind of room was too shabby to be a reverse brigade, and if he built a reverse brigade, he would take Xuan Chang as his business. He asked, "How long is this reverse journey a day?" ”

The city lord said: "Where the doctor lives, he dares to talk about money." The doctor is all there is. ”

The owner of the reverse journey is an old man, followed by a child who is not yet an adult. The city lord said: "It is the six doctors, sent to your family, and they will be better to wait, so as not to make it short." ”

The old man screamed again and again. He brought straw and quilts, and spread them all over the room. Six people came to sleep in the "Chase Shop" at night.

Seeing that the settlement was in order, the lord of the city took his leave and left.

After the city lord left, Mr. Guo walked out, asked the old man to sit down, and said, "The old man has been full of guests recently?" “

The old man said: "We are soldiers, and we have guests!" Those who have no customers in March. “

Mr. Guo said: "The soldiers are out in October, and it is only February, so why is there no guest in March? “

The old man said: "The doctor doesn't know, but the businessmen are all smart people." A month before the army, I knew that the soldiers were coming, but the guests couldn't. If you are old and faint, you will fall into the soldiers. “

Mr. Guo said: "If it is full, what is the room rate? “

The old man said: "The rate is ten dollars a night, if you dine in the hotel, the meal will be added one dollar." “

Mr. Guo said: "The reverse travel in the city, how many people are staying today? “

The old man said: "It seems that there is only one household." Those who remain are butchers from their neighborhoods. “

Mr. Guo said: "Is it a famous pig? “

The old man said: "The doctor also knows the three things? “

Mr. Guo did not continue, but said, "Is there a slaughter industry in the city? “

The old man said: "The slaughter of the three pigs is also good, and the price is very high." Our small town, we have to be invited. It goes, but so does the sacrifice of watching the moon. “

Mr. Guo said: "The three pigs also know the sacrifice of the moon? “

The old man said: "The doctors have widely advertised, who can not know in my township!" Those who want to watch the ceremony are not only three people, but also have early ears. “

Mr. Guo said: "The wild sacrifice is in Guanyi. What is the state of the sacrifice? “

The old man said: "One is happy, and the other is worried." Those who are happy, the field hunts and opens up the wasteland, and it is also profitable. Those who are worried, I am afraid that they are not well prepared, and they will worry about their sons. “

Mr. Guo said: "What is there in the city? “

The old man said: "The doctors have not arrived, so they have to be prepared." Today's doctor is the most important, and his preparation is also the beginning. “
