See you in the world

Chapter 178 Strange Symbols
"Master, where are we going next?" Song Yan asked.

Looking at the sky, it was still early, and found a small teahouse not far away, Yun Jing said: "Come on, let's go and have a seat over there"

Asking for others is better than asking for yourself, Yunjing decided to develop the business of "bounty missions" by himself, and he didn't intend to do it as a long-term career. Anyway, he just wanted to earn a ticket. Just think of other ways.

As long as you use your brain, there are always more ways than difficulties.

Song Yan is quite qualified as a 'living assistant', Yunjing said he was going to sit in a teahouse, and he ran over to make arrangements first.

He asked the shopkeeper for a pot of the cheapest tea and a plate of melon seeds, which cost less than ten copper coins in total...

After getting along with Yunjing during this period, Song Yan has already become familiar with Yunjing's character. In terms of daily life, he rarely sees Yunjing being extravagant and wasteful, but he is not vague when it is time to spend money.

After all, Niujiao Town is a small place, and the teahouse Yunjing went to is also a small teahouse, but there is no storyteller, they can't make money here, so naturally they won't come here, and the boss is also reluctant to spend money to hire a storyteller.

Sitting by the window of the teahouse, drinking cheap tea and kneading melon seeds, it is also leisurely.

Coming here, Yunjing didn't just pass the time because he was bored, he was 'looking for a market'.

With his eyes slightly closed, Yun Jing seemed to be thinking about the problem, but his mental power was released silently.

His first goal was the notice wall outside Niujiao Town.

Back then, Yun Jing asked his father why no paper notices were posted on the notice wall, and it turned out that the government was afraid of people stealing the paper...

As the place where the government announces news, there is naturally all kinds of information. Yunjing thinks that if you want to accept the 'bounty task', if you don't have a special channel, you must start from here.

Yunjing's spiritual power extended there, and he was slightly taken aback as he browsed the information on the notice wall.

so messy?
There are hundreds of pieces of information on the notice wall, all kinds of information, a small part of it is the announcement of the government, and most of it is written by private individuals.

Uh, the government doesn't care about writing private information...

Yun Jing first browsed through the official announcements, which contained information about the border war, the latest regulations promulgated by the dynasty, wanted arrest warrants for important criminals, and notices for providing clues for a fee.

There are two pieces of information about the border war. One is that the war is stalemate and the border is not peaceful. I advise people not to go to any place if there is no need. go?The second is that the dynasty added another 300,000 troops to the front line, organized several attacks, and achieved so many victories.

As for the war, there was not much information, and Yunjing knew at a glance that this was an announcement of good news rather than bad news, but he also understood that the dynasty also wanted to maintain stability among the people, so it was naturally impossible to announce the truth.

There is only one new regulation of the dynasty, which is closely related to the hundreds of millions of farmers in the entire dynasty, and it is about taxation!

After the farmyard manure was stabbed by Li Qiu, the court had been arguing about this issue, and now it finally has a result.

The news is neither good nor bad.

Over the years, with the popularization of farmyard manure, the harvest of farmers has increased by [-]% compared to before, and the new tax rate of the dynasty has naturally been increased. The increase is not too outrageous. It's only [-]% more than before.

That is to say, the farmers of the Dali Dynasty have not yet enjoyed the benefits of farm manure, and the burden on their shoulders has become heavier again, but it is better than before. After all, after the tax is paid, the food is still better than before. many.

However, the accounts are not calculated in this way. After all, not every farmer’s family has enough farmyard manure, and in the past, there was less farmyard manure in farming, which required a lot of work. Now that the dynasty is doing this, on average, it actually There is no difference from before!
For this new tax rate, Yunjing was not too surprised, it was expected, and even now that the war was going on, it was considered the utmost benevolence of the dynasty not to raise taxes.

But in the end it is the farmers who suffer the most.

Seeing this regulation, Yunjing felt a little bit like complaining, the peasants finally had some hope, but they were beaten back to their original shape, this country should just be wiped out...

Tucao belongs to Tucao, but the order has come down and it is a foregone conclusion.

Niujiao Town, as a "grain source township", does not need to pay taxes, so the new tax law of the dynasty will not affect here, but this does not make Yunjing feel happy at all, on the contrary, it is very entangled.

Originally, he was still thinking about ways to increase grain production, but the Dali Dynasty's efforts to do so extinguished his mind. No matter how he tried to increase grain production, the court would still benefit in the end. They will all be taken away by the imperial court in every possible way, and it is always the peasants who suffer, so they still need a hammer.

It's not bad or bad now, let him keep it up.

At least in the future, Yunjing didn't want to make wedding dresses for the Dali Dynasty for nothing until his ability was strong enough to influence the taxation laws in the future, because no matter how he did it, the benefits would not fall to the common people, so why bother.

Skipping this article, Yunjing went to read about the arrest warrant.

A total of five arrest warrants!
The first one is to catch the flower pickers. This arrest warrant was issued by Xinlin County. The flower pickers committed crimes in the county. More than a dozen girls and daughters-in-law were killed. Now I don’t know where they went. If someone provides clues, the government There will be a reward of ten taels of silver. If you catch it, you will be rewarded with 50 taels at once. This is the small head, and the big head is the thank you fee for those who were killed. It adds up to 600 taels. One can imagine how much those victims hate flower pickers up.

The second one is a wanted murderer, not someone from the Jianghu, but a farm family. Because of the separation of the family, the elder brother felt that the separation of the elders was unfair, so he stabbed all three brothers to death in a fit of anger. Now he doesn’t know how to hide. Somewhere, the bounty for this guy is 20 taels, hateful but worthless.

From the third to the fifth article, it is no longer individuals who are wanted, but gangs. Now, on the official road leading to the outside world in Niujiao Town, there are three waves of bandits blocking the road, murdering and stealing goods, and many victims.

In these three waves of bandits, there are five or six people less, and more than 20 people. Most of them have practiced martial arts. They fought guerrillas with the government. People are afraid to go out of Niujiao Town, so the government hopes that people with lofty ideals will destroy it. The reward is very high, as little as 200 taels, and as many as 800 taels!

Yun Jing is very suspicious. Such a high bounty must be paid by those victims. The government reckons that they are reluctant to spend so much money to suppress the bandits. After all, it is not that the government has done nothing. They just went to someone else and ran away. .

I don't know if anyone has answered these wanted warrants.

As for those robbers blocking the way, Yunjing thought to himself why they didn't meet the teachers and students from the school who went to the county town to catch the exam. If they did, they would probably be finished.

It is worth mentioning that Wang Bolin and Zhou Jintai went to the county seat to take the imperial examination this year, and they failed again, which was a big blow to them. During this time, they were studying hard and didn't even have much time to play with Yunjing.

The dozens of students who went to the Niujiao Town School to take the exam this time did not come back with a zero egg. This year, two children were admitted, both of whom are unfamiliar with Yunjing. If there is no accident, they will have two more classmates in the next semester. We studied together.

Regarding the matter of failing the ranking, Zhou Jintai said that he would spend time eating to study, and Wang Bolin said that he would never look at Xiao Huangshu again, and he had to work hard on the imperial examination.

Yun Jing didn't even bother to persuade them, they said these words countless times, did they change it?
If it continues like this, whether or not they can be admitted to fame in this life is a matter of fact...

Finally, the announcement about the government’s paid clues is all about trivial things. Some people lost their cattle, some people lost their children, and the government needs the public to provide clues to solve the case. If this kind of thing needs to be solved, it will be solved early, otherwise it will be too late. No announcement will be made.

However, these "trivial things" are undoubtedly big things like the sky falling to the people who happened to them.

But in this world, similar things happen all the time...

Then on the notice wall, there are all kinds of news written spontaneously by the people. Some people want to recruit nursing homes, some houses need to be rented out, some people’s family members have been kidnapped and need to be rescued, some people want to buy precious medicinal materials, and others. Something is lost and needs someone to help find it.

What's more, I don't know which idiot wrote "Liu Ting, I like you" on the notice wall...

In short, the news on the notice wall is very messy, but there are no "non-mainstream" graffiti on it.

The above information is still quite "valuable" to Yunjing, but some things are very troublesome, such as tracking down the flower picker, who knows where the other party is, and doesn't even know what he looks like, so how to check?Others have to take risks, such as suppressing bandits, God knows how many gangs they have, whether they have colluded with the government, these situations are not clear, and there will be endless troubles. Besides, Yunjing doesn't have so much energy to suppress bandits, God knows they commit crimes How far is the place from Niujiao Town.

However, things that don’t bother you and don’t have to take risks have little benefit, and the gains outweigh the losses, a waste of time. When there is that time, Yunjing will go hunting a big bug, or find a few nests of honey and come back with everything.

To be honest, before paying attention to the notice wall, Yun Jing really didn't know that there were so many things around him.

Yun Jing kept the information on the notice wall in his heart, and if some things happened to him, even though the money was small, he didn't mind taking care of them.

In the end, he felt that there were three things that he needed to try, but whether to do it or not depends on his mood.

One is the Liu family in the town, who invested 180 taels to buy a hundred-year-old ginseng. The time is within half a month. After that time, it will not be needed. It is estimated that it is for life-saving. The second is that someone is playing in Baishui Bay outside Niujiao Town. At that time, I lost a precious jade pendant, and the other party offered 200 taels, hoping that someone could help to find it. The man emphasized that the jade pendant itself is not worth that much money. Someone lost a dog. It was black and a wolf hybrid. It was very ferocious. The other party wanted someone to help find it, but it had better be someone with a certain skill. Otherwise, the other party would not be responsible for the injury. He was willing to find a dog just to find it. It cost 150 taels, and Yunjing couldn't help complaining, is that your own son?
Tsk, well, after all, Yunjing doesn't have a special channel, and can only learn about this from the notice wall.

"If you complete the three bounty tasks, you will have the money to open the shop. Please pay attention to it. If it doesn't work, go to the mountain..."

Yun Jing was about to withdraw his 'gaze', but he was attracted by an inconspicuous corner on the wall.

In the lower left corner of the notice wall, there is a strange symbol, which looks like it was scribbled by a child, very inconspicuous.

The reason why he noticed that strange symbol was that it looked very fresh, it was not written with ink, but engraved with a sharp weapon, and another was that it vaguely gave Yunjing a sense of familiarity. It feels like a dream, but for a while I can't remember where I saw it.

Yunjing was slightly curious about this strange phenomenon.

"I have the ability of photographic memory. If I saw it somewhere, it is absolutely impossible to forget it. I can't remember it now, but the symbol gave me a familiar feeling..."

With thoughts flickering, Yunjing quickly thought about the information about the symbol in his mind.

After a while, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

He understood why the symbol felt familiar to him, but he couldn't remember seeing it there.

Gein had never seen that kind of symbol, so it would be strange if he could remember it, he had only seen a description of that kind of symbol.

"That is not a symbol, but a kind of writing, which does not belong to the writing of the Dali Dynasty!"

Why is there a text on the notice wall in Niujiao Town that does not belong to the Dali Dynasty?
Carefully recalling the symbol-like text description in his mind, Yun Jing remembered that he had seen it in a book of his master's house, and after recalling it, his brows frowned even deeper.

Because that character is actually a unique character belonging to the Dajiang Dynasty!
Coincidence or deliberate?

If it was a coincidence that Yun Jing killed him, he wouldn't believe it, but if someone did it deliberately, it would be a bit unreasonable to just write the words of the Dajiang Dynasty on it in such a grand manner, without covering it up at all.

"Let's see what it means first, then say..."

While observing the strange characters, Yun Jing looked through the comparison dictionary on the characters of the Dajiang Dynasty in the master's study.

There are many countries in this world, and each country has its own common characters and languages. If you feel that you can really go to the 'world' just by simply mastering a language, you are making a big mistake!
As far as Yunjing knows, each of the 'diplomats' of the Dali Dynasty must master at least three different languages ​​to be qualified to serve. Therefore, many highly educated scholars, if they have energy, will have more Less people learn one or more languages, because in the future they will travel to study "the world". If they don't even know the language, how can they go to study?
Study tours are not limited to your own country...

When Yunjing looked up the meaning of the words from the air, he 'saw' that the newly engraved words of the Dajiang Dynasty on the notice wall turned into powder like weathering and were erased!
"Innate zhenqi, someone used Xiantian zhenqi to erase that text in the air. Although it was done secretly, how could it escape my perception!"

After all, after living with Li Qiu for so many years, Yun Jing is still very familiar with Xiantian Zhenqi, so he recognized it at a glance.

With a jump in his heart, Yun Jingxin said when did a natural master appear in Niujiao Town?

Innate masters, if Yun Jing observes with the naked eye, it is really difficult for him to distinguish the other party without revealing his aura, but under his unique sensory perspective, innate masters are no less than a bright light in the dark in his eyes.

Soon Yunjing found the innate master among the crowd.

The other party looked like a very ordinary passer-by, inconspicuous, but the fiery innate qi in his body couldn't fool Yun Jing's perception.

The other party erased the words on the notice wall naturally, and then walked towards Niujiao Town at a leisurely pace, unaware that his every move was being observed by Yun Jing...

"I found it, the words of the Dajiang Dynasty actually mean 'meeting'"

Many of the characters of the Dajiang Dynasty have multiple meanings, which are different from the characters of the Dali Dynasty...
