Chapter 455 Ma Lin: My job is good, but it’s expensive! [Requesting monthly tickets]
“If you hit the car, I’ll give you fifty taels. How about chasing after him and letting him curse a few words?”
When Ma Lin got out of the carriage and cursed, Ruan Xiao Erhe and Ruan Xiaowu almost drove the car and beat him up, but when they saw the huge silver ingot, they suddenly lost their temper.
When he first entered Mingzhou, Gongsun Sheng sent a note saying that Ma Lin would entertain everyone when they arrived in Xingzhou.
I didn’t expect Ma Lin’s appearance to be so dramatic, but it was quite reasonable.
Even Wang Sheng, who had been observing secretly, didn't see any flaws. On the contrary, he was quite envious of Chao Gai:
"This cart of pears is worth throwing away. For fifty taels of silver, you can't make money by selling pears for two years." Is this money?”
Chao Gai threw the silver ingot in his hand and responded quickly:
“Thanks to Mr. Xie, Boss Wang and Shopkeeper Zhu for taking care of me on the way, I’ll treat you tonight!”
To obtain so much money rashly, the first choice for the people at the bottom is to squander it. Chao Gai has received countless heroes in Shijie Village, and he knows too well the feeling of being poor for a long time and suddenly becoming rich.
Many good guys get money from Shijie Village and immediately go to gambling houses, wineries or fireworks places, spend all the money quickly, and then become the paupers who need relief to survive again.
Now that I have made a sudden fortune, I have to behave like this to be normal.
And after suffering so much along the way, I really need to eat well, stay in a room, take a shower, and buy a new set of clothes.
Of course, after all this hard work, there is probably not much money left, and I have to continue selling fruit.
Wang Sheng said with a smile:
"You don't have to worry about where you live. Just treat us to a meal later. I heard that Xingzhou's mutton stew tastes good. How about we try this later?"
"Easy to say, no problem. "
Chao Gai helped the empty cart up. Although it looked tattered, it was still quite strong. He scattered the remaining pears on the cart to everyone and took them out of his pocket. He took out a handful of copper coins and threw them to the beggars around who were unwilling to leave, and then pushed the empty cart away.
Everyone found an inn to stay. This time Chao Gai and the others did not stay in Datongpu. Instead, each of them asked for an upper room. In addition, they also asked the inn to stew a whole lamb and ten Make soup cakes with kilograms of noodles.
Since you are going to spread it out and eat it, you naturally want to enjoy it.
Not long after, a group of people sat together and ate steaming mutton stew.
In addition to the mutton, Chao Gai also ordered a large fish more than two feet long, which was stewed over firewood and served. The large piece of meat was particularly enjoyable to eat.
Wang Sheng got acquainted with everyone and chatted about the rules related to eating fish:
“I heard that kidnapping bandits will be hungry for a whole day if they catch half a kid. The next day, a stewed fish was served. Those who picked up the chopsticks to eat the fish meat, but ate a mouthful of fish bones, were beaten and let go. Those who ate the fish belly were treated to delicious food and drinks. They were fat sheep. ”
As a fisherman, Ruan Xiaoer didn’t understand:
"Why? Is there any difference?"
Wang Sheng said with a smile:
"People who eat meat but are not allowed to eat meat usually cannot eat fish, and they are most likely from poor families. It would be a waste of time to tie up the children... Rich children like to eat fish belly, which is boneless, soft and plump."
As he said this, he saw that Xie Yingden did not move the fish body, and he also He didn't touch the belly of the fish, but picked up the finger-sized piece of fish meat on the gill cover and ate it. He immediately gave a thumbs up:
"Is Daochang Xie of an extraordinary background?"
Xie Yingdeng asked back:
"How can you see it?"
Wang Sheng pointed to the gill cover where Xie Yingdeng held the meat and said:
"It is said that top wealthy families eat meat. After a brief taste, the dish is given to the servant. Fish is a dish that requires all parts of the fish. It is unlucky to give the fish incomplete, so the host usually eats only the gills. "My son, what Mr. Xie did just now is in line with the style of a top wealthy family."
Wang Sheng was right.
Xie Yingdeng was born in the Xie family of the "Old Wang Xietang Qianyan". He grew up in fine clothes and fine food, and was indeed a top wealthy family.
Although the Xie family had declined by the Sui Dynasty, a lean camel was bigger than a horse. No matter how declining the Xie family was, it would not be comparable to that of a small family.
It is a pity that such a large family has a pair of rebellious uncles and nephews, Xie Hong and Xie Yingdeng. One became a monk and became a Taoist priest, and the other simply followed Shan Xiongxin into the underworld and became a lawless element who ruled the mountain.
However, it was precisely because of this experience that Xie Yingden had a clearer understanding of the world of mortals and a deeper understanding of the Taoist scriptures. In the end, Xiaju ascended to the throne and became the only self-taught immortal in history. .
Xie Yingdeng said modestly:
"I was afraid of getting stuck in my throat when eating fish, so I ate this little meat."
Eating lamb ribs, Zhu Wu changed the subject:
"Brother Chao got the money, but he still went to the real place. Dingfu?”
Chao Gai thought for a while and said:
“Go ahead and sell the remaining car pears and jujubes. We’ll see what Xingzhou has to offer tomorrow. Once a car goes by, it doesn’t matter how much you earn, just enough for food.”
Wang Sheng asked:
“Why do you have to go to Zhending Mansion? Is there anything important, Brother Chao?”
“Let’s buy wine. I heard that there are good ones in Zhending Mansion. We plan to sell some of the wine at a high price, so we won’t have to worry about buyers.”
Everyone finished the meat in a hurry, and asked the store to cook some soup cakes and mix them into the soup. Everyone ate it. A round belly.
Xie Yingden had enough to eat and drink, and on the pretext of digesting food, he went out with his whisk.
He limped to a Taoist temple and saw Ma Lin waiting here, and Gongsun Sheng, who had nothing to do and flew over.
"How is Wang Sheng like this person?"
"He is from the Western Army. He has a good character and is worth wooing, but the details remain to be further observed."
If we can get Wang Sheng If Sheng wins over him, he will be able to control what happens in the Cai Mansion in the future.
After Gongsun Sheng learned about the situation, he asked Ma Lin to pay attention to collecting intelligence, and then flew away... After Handan City was captured, Guan Erye had already set his sights on Shexian County. After capturing it, he had control over it. The entrance to Shangdang is a strategic location.
Xie Yingdeng asked Ma Lin:
"How is the undercover work, are you adapting to it?"
"Except for the waste, everything else is fine. Several prostitutes have become the intelligence department. I am very grateful for the peripheral members who are willing to obtain information for us."
"Don't be tricked."
"Don't worry, I have put on several layers of disguise. , the deepest one is the royal spy from Tokyo, the King of Heaven is here and we are one of our own.”
Good guy, just pretend to be the person on the opposite side. Aren’t you afraid that we will form an anti-rape group?
The two chatted until dark, and then they dispersed.
In the real world, Li Yu is sitting in the restaurant, eating today's dinner - braised noodles.
Boil the braised noodles, take them out under cold water, cover them with freshly fried shredded pork with garlic sprouts, and eat them with garlic cloves. It is appetizing, delicious, and very comforting.
While we were eating, Lu Bu came loudly:
"Brother Xian, I heard that you and my senior sister went to the provincial capital?"
"Yes, I sent the peach branches there and had lunch at my parents' place by the way. You are not busy at Shangdang anymore, right? Right?”
“It’s not that I’m not busy. I dug a deep hole and planned to build a signal tower in Huguan County so that several nearby counties and Shexian County can be connected to facilitate Gongda management. "
There are ready-made signal towers, so don't worry. Recently, Li Yu bought several signal towers that can be built quickly. As long as the base is poured, they can be installed quickly.
Li Yu took Lu Bu to the warehouse with a bowl and saw the newly purchased signal tower.
The base is integrated. Just put it into the pit and fix it, then adjust the level, and you can pour the concrete. After it solidifies, just install it section by section.
The entire signal tower is dozens of meters high, so it is not troublesome to install.
With the skills Lu Bu has mastered, it is easy to do it.
Yuwen Chengdu had nothing to do and helped Lu Bu install the steel cage of the base onto the electric fifth wheel. The two of them worked until it was almost dark, and finally transported all the accessories needed for the base.
According to Lu Bu's needs, Li Yu reported the amount of concrete to the mixing station and returned to the restaurant to continue eating.
At around ten o'clock in the evening, the pump truck and tank truck arrived. Lu Bu drove back one by one, took away a diesel generator, and began to pound concrete.
This time it is a soil pit operation, so you don’t have to worry about mold running and mold expansion, you can fight it casually.
Cao Xing, Song Xian, Zhang Xiu and others experienced the use of the vibrator one by one, and even deliberately placed the vibrator on the belly of a Black Mountain bandit who was killing people.
At first, the other Black Mountain thieves thought it was nothing, and scolded the imperial army as if they were not afraid of death.
But when the vibrator was activated and the man's stomach quickly turned into a ball of mush, these guys immediately knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy, explaining clearly how they had harmed the people.
After the concrete base was poured, Lu Bu waved his hand and said:
"Kill all these people, leave no one behind!" He drove the pump truck and tank truck back to the real world, and specially pulled the water pipe to rinse it. Let the people at the mixing station drive back.
"Gongda has arrived near Changzi County and will start attacking tomorrow. After this battle, there will be no more fighting in Shangdang County. I will leave after finishing the signal tower."
After Lu Bu built the signal tower, Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu also led a thousand light cavalry to follow Zhao Yun to pick up his family. Lu Bu went south to Gaodu County to build a signal tower there, and then went to Hanoi County.
Everyone divided into two groups, one in the south and one in the north, and finally met in Chang'an.
Lu Bu will also attend Zhao Zilong's loan ceremony. He doesn't want to miss this kind of excitement.
Li Yu made a pot of fried shredded cakes for Lu Bu to add to his meal. Yuwen Chengdu also ran over, filled some braised chicken feet, opened a bottle of beer, and chatted with Lu Bu while eating and drinking.
"Where does Marquis Wen think Zhang Yan is now?"
Since we are going to the world of the Three Kingdoms, we naturally need to understand the trends there.
Lu Bu took a bite of the fried pancake and said:
"It's not with Yuan Shao anyway. Yuan Shao relies on his good background and looks down on poor families, let alone bandits and bandits. If Zhang Yan goes to join him, he will either be kicked out or Be an insulting leader.”
As a man of influence during the Three Kingdoms period, Lu Bu had already thoroughly studied the characters in the early period.
He took two bites of fried pancakes and expressed his inference:
"Now Zhang Yan can either go all the way north and mingle with those foreign races, or he can defect to Gongsun Zan... These two people The relationship has always been very good. If Zhang Yan leads the remnants of the Black Mountain bandits to defect, Gongsun Zan will definitely welcome him with both hands."
They couldn't stay in the mountains anymore, especially after Song Xian and the others set fire to it several times at night. All the Black Mountain bandits hiding inside fled for fear that they would be killed in the flames if it was too late.
When the last fortress of safety in their hearts loses its effect, they will naturally have the idea of escape from Taihang Mountain.
But in fact, the Black Bandits are more difficult to fight because they are more slippery in hiding. If they really want to fight, their combat effectiveness is not even as good as that of the White Wave Army.
Although the Baibo Army is also a ragtag group, after all, there is a part of the Xiliang Army, and their combat effectiveness is not bad.
As for the Black Mountain Bandits, the Yellow Turban Army developed by coercing the desperate people. There is no comparison between the two.
After eating and drinking, Lu Bu stretched out and prepared to return to the world of the Three Kingdoms to observe Xun You's siege of Changzi County and give Hao Zhao some pointers.
Li Yu tidied up the kitchen and was about to go upstairs when Liu Xie suddenly appeared with his head tilted:
"Sir, Teacher Sun asked you to prepare these supplies."
After speaking, he took out a piece of white paper, which was densely written with the iron sheet to be purchased, the steel pipes needed for the steel structure factory building, cutting machines, welding machines, etc., and he also named two diesel generators that could be used for a long time. Time-powered kind.
After reading it, Li Yu asked curiously:
"What does Sun Facai want to do? Build a new factory?"
Liu Xie was much more casual than when he first arrived. He opened the refrigerator and took out a bottle of Assam milk tea, and drank it first. After a few mouthfuls, he said:
"We are going to Hedong County to build a salt factory and help Wen Hou share some of the pressure."
The previous plan was for Lu Bu to run around. However, Liu Xie felt sorry for his father-in-law and planned to take over the construction of the salt factory.
Now Zhang Yang and the others have arrived at the oil base and are taking a short rest. Chang'an has nothing to do. Jia Xu is watching the training of new recruits. Taking advantage of this gap, Sun Facai is preparing to drive Liu Xie to Hedong in his XT6. County, help Du Ji build the factory.
Salt and iron are a heavy tax related to the operation of the court, so they must be grasped.
When the salt in Hedong is continuously produced, we can wipe out all the families that monopolize the salt industry.
Jia Xu has personally inscribed the words "Dahan Official Salt" for use as salt packaging.
However, the equipment Li Yu bought did not include a packaging production line. When the time comes, he will have to buy a set specifically for the production of salt packaging, 500 grams per pack. All salt business channels are officially responsible.
In order to prevent personal enrichment and corruption, the imperial court would set up a salt and iron franchise yamen to be responsible for the sales and control of salt. Officials in the yamen were required to swear an oath to Zhang Daoling's statue before taking up their posts.
In the real world, I swear, even if I say it, it will be fine.
But in a book world with gods, you'd better not go too far with your vows, otherwise your vows will really be honored.
Li Yu read what he needed, placed the order overnight, and then asked:
"Are you two going?"
"No, Yang Xiu is still there One hundred workers who are proficient in electric welding, cutting, and mechanical operations were specially dispatched to help.”
One hundred workers were dispatched easily, and the training work in the industrial zone was in place... Li Yu said:
"Tell Yang Xiu, while training skills, don't forget to conduct safety training, in terms of industrial production , we must strictly abide by the operating regulations and put safety first.”
“Don’t worry, sir, we have always emphasized safety first. The Industrial Zone Management Committee in charge of Yang Xiu has also introduced strict reward and punishment measures. Keep safety in mind. ”
In the initial stage of industry, we cannot muddle along carelessly, lest we develop the style of India.
After Liu Xie left, Mu Guiying finally came back.
"Master asked you to buy some mosquito repellent tools and medicine tomorrow. Lu Yue needs to study it."
"Okay!"
The two walked around the B&B and fed them Ma, refill the water and then go upstairs to rest.
The next day, Li Yu bought a lot of mosquito-killing drugs on his way to buy food, including mosquito-repellent incense, electric mosquito-repellent incense, mosquito-repellent spray, mosquito-repellent lotion, mosquito-killing lotion, toilet water, and mosquito-killing lamps. Everything you need.
When I came back, I turned to the scenic spot and looked at the newly repaired stables. Then I found Wang Shengli and asked him to raise 30,000 kilograms of watermelons from the village.
"Last time, my relatives fell in love with your watermelons and asked for tens of thousands of kilograms to prepare for welfare. Uncle Wang, please take the trouble to help me collect the watermelons."
"Okay, no problem!"
The unsalable watermelons in the village suddenly became popular, and Wang Shengli was very happy.
Back at the B&B, Li Yu took out the various mosquito repellent and mosquito repellent products he bought one by one and sent Mu Guiying to the world of books.
At the same time, Water Margin talks about the world of Yue.
Four men, Zhang Fei, Yang Zhi, Shi Wengong, Qiao Daoqing, led five thousand cavalry and headed north.
When they arrived at the border between Song and Liao, they found that the defenses on both sides were ineffective, especially on the Song side, half of the barracks were empty.
The Liao side was not much better. When they saw the cavalry led by Zhang Fei, they ran away immediately without even a decent resistance.
Zhang Fei was holding back his energy and wanted to win the battle, but he didn't expect this to happen. He suggested:
"Since we can't meet any decent enemies, let's just cross the Taihang Mountains and go Let’s just wander around the grassland, just to see how badly the grassland was damaged by the last heavy snowfall.”
After a brief discussion, everyone set off happily.
While we are enjoying the scenery of the North freely, Kaifeng City is a different scene.
On the second day after Choujun Ma Xuanzan led the Privy Council to investigate the poisoning case of the Xixia envoy, he was impeached by a snowflake-like memorial because he poured water on the sleeping Xixia envoy's face. Damage to the country.
Although the Xixia envoy did not know what was going on, he jumped up and down in protest, and threatened not to give an explanation. The Xixia cavalry would enter the Central Plains and fight to the death with the Song Dynasty.
These words suddenly frightened many courtiers. Even the courtiers who had diarrhea that day began to impeach and praise him.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the Song Dynasty court is really hopeless!"
In the backyard of Fengming Restaurant, Shi Qian hugged the poodle and kept whining for Xuan Zan.
Lehe ate the pear and said:
“Looking at the current situation, there is a high probability that Xuan Zan will be beheaded in public. How are you going to end it? Let’s make it clear first, I will not rob the execution site. Ability. "
Except for Shi Jin, Shi Qian, Le He, and Shi En are not combat talents. If they really carry a knife to rob the law field, they will most likely become a burden.
Shi Qian said with a smile:
"Tokyo hasn't become noisy yet. I'll add fuel to the fire tonight. The more chaotic it is, the more opportunities we have... Can't you two go give gifts?"< br>
"There are still three houses left to finish... Why do you ask?"
Shi Qian did not answer the question, but asked Shi Jin:
"Big Lang, do you want to be a hero respected by the people?”
These words immediately scratched Shi Jin's itch:
"Of course I have, I have even dreamed about it. Tell me, old time, what do you want me to do?"
Shi Qian smiled and masturbated. Brushing the dog's hair:
"Put on your night clothes and go out with me tonight. I guarantee you will become a legend in Tokyo!"
