Volume II: The Harmony of Yin and Yang Chapter 37

Chapter 37: The road is far away and the mountains are far away, and it cannot be passed on

"Sir, buy me! I'll be useful!" shouted the strong man who was at the head of the line, and when he heard the strong man's shout, the team suddenly stirred, and the voices such as "Buy me!"

He Hanwen frowned, he didn't like to make noise, so he quickly pulled out his short knife, cut off a corner of the platform, and said sternly: "Quiet! There are more noisy people, and this case is the same!" He didn't speak loudly, but the effect was surprisingly goodโ€”the whole team seemed to be silenced at the same time, and only heavy breathing came from.

"Who are you?" He Hanwen saw that the commotion in the team had stopped, so he asked the strong man who had the head.

"I don't have a name, and everyone in the village calls me Da Niu. I have a lot of strength and hunt for a living. The strong man shouted as he patted his chest.

"Oh, hunting for a living, why did you come here?" He Hanwen asked lightly.

"My lord, my family has suffered a disaster, and no one has anything to eat, not to mention that the prey has already been eaten!

"I see, you are a hunter, open your sleeves, I will look at it!" He Hanwen ordered.

The big cow didn't care much, and directly removed the jacket, revealing the tattered short punch inside. He Hanwen looked at it carefully, and saw that this person had thick thighs and a round waist, although his face was tired, he might see that his arms were clearly lined.

"Xiaozhu, borrow a hard bow from Lord Wang, but see if this person can open it?" He Hanwen ordered.

When Xiaozhu heard this, he ordered the two officials, and then the two of them reported a hard bow and put it in front of the big cow. "Big bull, if you have a real trick, then open this bow to see if what you say is true!"

Da Niu nodded, spat twice on his hand, and then steadied his pace, lifted the bow, and tried his strength, but he couldn't pull it away, and the surrounding crowd suddenly pointed and discussed.

He Hanwen saw that the big cow couldn't pull the bowstring, so he just shook his head. Da Niu wanted to try harder, but he exerted his strength, his face turned red, but he only opened half of it, and sat on the ground panting.

"I'm sorry, next. He Hanwen waved his hand to the side.

"My lord, my lord, let Da Niu say a few more words!" Da Niu said breathlessly and eagerly.

Xiaozhu glanced at the long line, a little impatient, and said: "You guy, if you can't pull it away, you can't pull it away, what kind of words do you have? Quickly stand aside, there are still more people behind!"

"Xiaozhu, let me say, no matter how tight the time is, it will not be on this day. Big cow, do you still have and words?"

Da Niu immediately kowtowed to He Hanwen, and then said: "I haven't eaten for a day, I am hungry, if I have a full meal, I will definitely be able to open this bow!"

"Yes!" He Hanwen instructed Lang Chao'er to take out two rice crackers with him.

"Young master, the concubine sees that this person is just talking and deceiving a full meal!" Xiao Zhu said coquettishly.

He Hanwen didn't like Xiaozhu's tone, but he couldn't bear to be too harsh, so he said earnestly: "Women, don't say anything more." Xiaozhu, you have to remember that if this person is really capable, I will be able to do it, and if this person is a deceit, I will only lose one or two rice crackers. How can you lose a big one because of a small one?"

Xiaozhu knew that He Hanwen was angry, so he bowed his head and didn't answer, but he was a little unconvinced.

"Those who become big things are not informal, Xiaozhu, you have been with me since you were a child, and you must learn to be calmer. These grains are not what you see in front of you. He Hanwen gently stroked her hair again, and Xiaozhu suddenly looked up shyly and embarrassed - He Hanwen didn't follow the rules very much when he could call the shots, which was similar to Cao Cao's smell.

"Young Master... The concubine knew. She replied.

"Big ox, eat until you are full, if you can open this bow, you will be a close attendant by my side, not only to keep you fed, but also to give you five strings of wages every year! If you can't open this bow, I will also give you a day's food, but in the future, it will be all up to you to make your own life, okay?" He Hanwen said.

The big bull was excited when he heard this, and immediately kowtowed, and then swore to the sky that he would be able to open this bow: "My lord believes in me, and I will live up to my lord!

The big bull was full of food and drink, gasped hard, and then grabbed the bow with one hand, grabbed the bowstring with his right hand, and pulled it back with all his might. I only heard a burst of applause, and the bow and crossbow immediately broke in half!

He Hanwen was shocked, high-fived and praised: "Good! good! Okay! Da Niu is really a wrestler! Xiaozhu, register, give me He Fu waist card, write the deed, and draw a charge for Da Niu!"

Xiaozhu said, the formalities were completed, and he handed it to Da Niu. Da Niu nodded, dipped his thumb in cinnabar, pressed the handprint, and then stood beside He Hanwen, triumphant.

The screening continued, and He Hanwen had prepared four or five carriages, which were far from full at the moment.

"Next!" A dozen in a row could not satisfy He Hanwen - none of them had the skills they were good at, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed. "Even if you can plant a field well, it's wonderful!" he thought.

The next one is a short, thin big boy, who looks like he is five or six years older than He Hanwen.

"What's your name?"

"The contemptible person's surname is Zhang, and the single name is a Bo character. The short boy arched his hand, but it was not very standard, it did not look like he came from a big family, but he should know some etiquette.

He Hanwen: "Oh, there is a name and a surname, what is the origin, what is the ability?"

Zhang Bo: "Back to my lord, a contemptible person in the party, he was originally a servant of a rich family in the party, and then a rich family fell into the middle of the road, so he begged along the road and ended up here. My father is a carpenter, and Bo has learned the craft since elementary school, and he has also learned to work as a carpenter, I wonder if the adults are willing to take him in?"

He Hanwen: "Well, I look at it and understand some etiquette, I'll test you." Thou seeest what kind of wood is this cover and wheel made of?"

Zhang Bo stepped forward, inspected it carefully, and then said: "My lord, this is cypress wood, and Xi'an chariots and horses use this wood." The cypress wood has a delicate grain and a darker color. I can see the texture as soon as I look at it. โ€

He Hanwen nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and then took out a grass ring and handed it to Zhang Bo. "Can it be copied?"

Zhang Bo took it, observed it carefully, grabbed two beads of basil, restored most of it, and finally couldn't connect it to the beginning.

He Hanwen was full of interest, grabbed the two basil plants, and fiddled with them more than a dozen times before they were completed. Zhang Bo's face was a little ugly, he didn't know if he had passed.

He Hanwen: "What are you doing standing? Xiaozhu, the contract is given to him, and the painting is charged!"

Zhang Bo thought that he had failed the test - he didn't even understand how He Hanwen got the last two hits, but when he heard this, he immediately smiled and happily signed and went away.

Zhang Bo: "My lord, I have a cousin who is also here, I wonder if the adult can be accommodated?"

He Hanwen: "Oh, bring it and take a look!"

I saw Zhang Boxing rushing to bring his cousin forward, He Hanwen looked at it, the appearance was average, but it was quiet, and after seeing the ceremony, he didn't say much, he was happy, and said: "Xiaozhu, draw together, and hand over all the female dependents to you to manage, good life training, do you know?"

How could Xiaozhu not know what He Hanwen meant, this is to let her be in charge! So she happily replied: "The concubine knows what the young master means, and she must be a good student." โ€

He Hanwen: "Well, so, it is very popular with this son." โ€
