Text Chapter 38 A good idea
Tang Feng couldn't cry or laugh, it turned out that the old man had treated him as a fake, he quickly shook his head and said: "It has nothing to do with your wine, I am not strong enough to drink, you pour me a bowl of tea again, let's calculate it according to the wine price." In addition to leaving 50,000 silver coins for his family, he also found thousands of deposit tickets and some gold and silver coins on Cao Dajiao's body, and when he left, his mother also stuffed him with some copper coins in his baggage.
As soon as the old man heard that tea could be sold as wine, it naturally blossomed, and immediately went into the house to pour tea, his legs and feet seemed to be more flexible than usual, he served Tang Feng tea again, and was just about to leave, but Tang Feng called him: "Old man Wu, there is no one anyway, let's sit here and talk?"
The old man was very obedient and came back to stand, but he still didn't sit down when he saw Tang Feng pointing to the stool opposite: "Little boy, you ask, I'll just stand." ”
Tang Feng was laughed at by the old man, although he didn't care what it was called, but it didn't make sense to let an old man stand and talk to him, so he persuaded the old man: "Although I am from the city, I am not a son, everyone is an ordinary person, don't think nonsense, sit." Tang Feng still pointed to the other party's stool, especially the last word was undoubted.
The old man seemed to be a little bold by what he said, but he still sat unnaturally in disbelief: "Little boy, you say." ”
Tang Feng was really helpless, it seems that the urban hukou here is still full of gold, the world has been vaguely surpassed by the rural hukou before, he pointed to the small town in front of him and asked, "Why is that tuyere town so small?"
The old man looked at it and replied with a smile: "There was no town there before, because it was an outlet, and these people who did business on the border rested in the houses built there, and then there were more people who rested, and all businessmen began to exchange things, and slowly a market was formed, and then the town was formed." ”
"Oh. Tang Feng listened to the story and began to taste the wine again, he really wanted to know where the taste of this wine was. It was at this time that a cavalry team of 100 people passed in front of the tea stall, and the dust raised stretched for hundreds of meters, although it was still a little more hideous than the steel torrent of the previous world, but the sound of the earth-shattering horses' hooves could still give people enough oppression, Tang Feng thought that this was still a team of 100 people, if he saw the 1,000-person team in the novel, wouldn't it be a bombardment? When he looked up, he saw the old man's eyes full of heat, and that look reminded him of his cousin who had retired from the army when he looked at the raising of the national flag, and he asked, "Have you been a soldier?"
The old man smiled, still with a few yellow teeth that had fallen out, he still looked at the horse team in the distance and said: "Yes, when I was young, I spent time in the border army, and I also killed a few Northern Han barbarians, and then I went home when I was old." ”
"Yo, I can't see it. Tang Feng joked with the old man.
"Hehe, it's been more than ten years since I went home. The old man was a little shy by Tang Feng's jokes, like a little daughter-in-law who had just been lifted, but such an expression did have some eyes on an old man's face, so Tang Feng quickly diverted the topic.
Tang Feng couldn't bear to look at it directly, so he pretended to drink water: "Where was the cavalry just now?"
The old man put away his strange expression, and it was the cowardly old man again: "Don't you know, the little boy? That's the defender of our Swallow Pass." ”
"Yanzi Pass?" Tang Feng really didn't know, to be honest, he really didn't know much about the geography of Southern Chu, and he knew about several famous cities such as Wangdu and Yanzhou.
The old man looked at him a little dazed and explained: "Yanzi Pass is the first important pass on the border between our Southern Chu and Northern Han, and it is also the place where every north-south conflict must be contested. The old man's face was excited, and it seemed that he had stayed in Yanzi Pass.
"Oh. Tang Feng began to be less interested, it's not that he doesn't like military things, it's just that compared to the era of cold weapons with a big knife and a spear, he still prefers those modern weapons with a metallic sense and great power, this feeling is like people from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift.
The old man didn't pay attention to Tang Feng's expression, and after a few words of chatting, he became familiar with a lot, so he asked tentatively: "Little boy, where are you going? ”
Tang Feng nodded, it has indeed been not peaceful recently, he encountered two robbers on the road, at first he thought that the Sun family had sent him to kill him, but when he took them, he knew that they were ordinary little robbers. In fact, Tang Feng's most depressed thing now is that he has nowhere to go, saying that he wants to break into the rivers and lakes, but the world is so big, his departure from Wuwei City is a smear, and now he has no purpose to go. The old man shook his head when he asked him now: "I don't know where to go?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, what does this mean? He had a very good impression of this little boy, unlike those he had met before, who basically took his chin down to look at people. So the old man kindly asked, "What happened to the little boy?"
Tang Feng looked at the tea and wine on the table and thought about it for a long time, and finally picked up the wine very tragically and took another sip, but he still couldn't taste good. He nodded to the old man: "Yes, I beat up a bastard in the city, but his family is rich and powerful, so I ran out so as not to disturb the family." ”
Only then did the old man notice that Tang Feng had a long knife with a white sheath hanging from his waist, but he didn't expect that this gentle and handsome young man was still a martial arts knife and gun. The old man was not afraid, but said more familiarly: "I was like this when I was young, I grabbed water from a neighboring village and injured people very much, and then I ran to join the army." Then the old man looked at Tang Feng and said, "If the little boy doesn't think the old man is rude, I'll say a few words from my heart." ”
"You say. "As the saying goes, if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you, maybe the old man is really a good idea.
The old man pointed to the direction where the cavalry team went just now: "If the little boy is not afraid of hardship, he will go to the border to join the army, that is where the master should go, and I see that the little boy is dignified, this knife should also be a person who practices martial arts, if you mix an official and a half-position in the army in the future, then your enemy is no matter how rich and powerful he is." ”
"That's right!" the old man really said a good idea, if he got a military general in front of his Sun family in the future, he would uproot him. And he personally likes this idea, the previous world said that he regretted being a soldier for three years, and regretting not being a soldier for a lifetime, Tang Feng has always regretted not being a soldier, although the army here is backward and primitive, but it is better than nothing, it is enjoyable, as long as he can get the Sun family, he doesn't want to be a soldier on horseback and a knife all the time, what he yearns for the most is the wonderful rivers and lakes. He immediately gave the old man a thumbs up: "That's a great idea, I have to thank you!"
The old man's face was wrinkled with a smile: "The little boy is polite, I just said it casually." ”
