Chinese dining table

Chapter 56 The requirements of day and night are different
Yunchu had the habit of reading official documents and local newspapers before, because as long as he was careful enough, he could see the political ecology and human relations of a place from these official documents and documents.

This is a kind of political aesthetics, which emphasizes readers' powerful abilities of discovery, induction, summary, and thinking.

In each yamen, this ability has become a daily ability.

Observing one person, or many people is Yunchu's professional habit. Just like his chemistry teacher told him, everyone is not static, and one should look at a living person with a movement thinking.

Just like a chemical reaction, without the catalyst of time, there would be no science of chemistry.

Don't make enemies, don't make enemies, don't make enemies!

This is what the teacher has repeatedly warned him about.

Even if you are a piece of gold, as long as you are covered with a broken rag, you will have no room to shine.

Of course, when Mr. Liu said the above words, he was stuffing burning magnesium into a glass bottle filled with oxygen. At that time, the magnesium burned fiercely in the oxygen, as brilliant as fireworks.

Yun Chu is a smart kid, and of course he also understands the teacher's teaching that if he must make an enemy, he must use the shortest time and the most drastic means to make the enemy disappear.

Once you feel that you may be threatened by someone, then you must be threatened by him. At this time, you should think carefully about whether you can resolve these conflicts peacefully. If you cannot, you must deal with them decisively.

Generally speaking, Yun Chu's killing of Hou San is a concrete manifestation of the decisive application of this type of problem.

Hou San was dealt with, and things went back to the original point, perhaps a little different, it doesn't matter, this is just the characteristic of redox reaction.

Ding Da did not give the order to continue to leave, but ordered a lieutenant Guo Yi to take 100 people and steal a few sands that were captured alive.

No one dared to question Ding Dayou's military order, so after 800 people waited for a whole day in the hot desert, Captain Guo Yi brought people back, not only people came back, they also brought back A lot of horses and camels.

From the looks of it, this is a benefit obtained from the Sand Pirate's lair.

When Yunchu invited Ding Dayou to eat fried noodles with butter, Ding Dayou said: "You are also a part of the Zhechong Mansion, and you also have a share of these seizures."

Yun Chu smiled and said: "Tomorrow we will leave the desert to face the Yumen Gate guards. I wonder if the captain has a good strategy to deal with it?"

Ding Dayou sighed and said: "Originally they are all robes in the army, so it is not impossible for us to make a fortune and share with them.

I heard that the guards of Yumen Gate have a big appetite, and they can't fill their bellies with a single star. Since you are also in the army, you should know that there is no good thing in the army with the surname Cheng. "

"The surname of the guard at Yumen Gate is Cheng?"

"That's right, Cheng Yaojin's Cheng, Cheng Yaojin bit off a layer of Hou Junji's skin at Yumen Pass.

Then, the person surnamed Cheng became the watchdog of Yumen Pass. He stopped biting gold and started biting people. No matter how good the relationship was, he would be barked a few times by them. "

Ding Dayou's attitude is very negative. It seems that it is inevitable to be severely hacked when entering the city.

The old monkey doesn't seem to care much about going to the city to pay taxes, or there are other ways to avoid it. No matter how Yunchu asks, the old monkey always looks smiling, making people want to punch him on the nose. punch.

At the end of the desert was the Gobi Desert again. A thin black line appeared on the Gobi Desert. After walking for two days, the thin line turned into a rammed earth Great Wall. This should be the Great Wall of Han Dynasty.

It is very strange that the Gobi is connected to the desert on one side of the Great Wall, but the grassland is connected to the forest on the other side of the Great Wall.

Yunchu and his party came to Yumen Pass from Gaochang and Yiwu. If they took the road from Khotan and Shanshan, they would face Yangguan directly.

Generally speaking, there will not be much difference, because both Yumen Pass and Yang Pass are under the jurisdiction of Yumen Duwei's Mansion.

The ox carts with reinstalled wheels creaked in the ancient ruts. It was amazing. Judging from the traces of the ruts, almost all the ruts of the carriages were basically the same.

Only when he saw the tall rammed-earth city tower of Yumen Pass, Yunchu was shocked by the number of people who wanted to enter.

Because, outside Yumen Pass, Hu people have spontaneously formed a small town.

Although the town looks very dilapidated, it definitely surpasses Kucha in terms of prosperity.

There are camels everywhere in the town, there are merchants everywhere, and beautiful orchids are posing everywhere. As for the goods, they are piled up like mountains.

Ding Dayou saw that the sun had set to the west, so he ordered to find a place outside the town where there was not much livestock manure to camp, and planned to enter Yumen Pass tomorrow.

Yunchu had nothing to do, so he took Naha to see how the Yumen Gate guards interrogated Hu merchants.

As a result, the scene Yunchu saw was very familiar, all kinds of making things difficult, all kinds of harshness, all kinds of insults, and all kinds of beatings.

Except for insults and beatings, which were uncommon in the world before Yunchu, the rest are almost exactly the same. It can be seen that even after more than 300 years, the style of the government has not improved much.

There are some changes, at least, in the world before Zai Yunchu, no one dared to put their hands into Hu Ji's arms, or measure her figure under her skirt.

Seeing the familiar scenes, Yunchu laughed immediately, and he began to check the Tang people who were doing business at the gate of the city.

Soon, Yunchu found a middle-aged man with a goatee who was dozing off under the awning.

This is a shop that sells steamed cakes. The steamed cakes are made of yellow rice, covered with a thick layer of dates and covered with gauze. The food looks clean and delicious, but no one goes in to buy it.

Yunchu looked at the soap boots on the middle-aged man's feet, then looked down at the soap boots on his own feet, then lifted up the green shirt and tucked it in his belt, deliberately revealing the soap boots, and led Naha straight to Cake stall.

The middle-aged man with the goatee opened his eyes when he came to the Zeng cake stand. First, he looked Yun Chu up and down. Yun Chu's too young face and green shirt stunned the middle-aged man with the goatee. Immediately, he saw Yun Chu again. With the soap boots on his feet, he cupped his hands suspiciously and said, "I don't know..."

Yun Chu bowed his hand and returned the salute: "The doctor under the Zhechong Mansion in Xiashangzhou, his surname is Yun and his name is Chu."

When Goatee heard that Yunchu had reported the name of Zhechong Mansion in Shangzhou, his face immediately changed, and he waved his hand and said, "Since it's an official family, just go straight through the main entrance."

Yun Chu smiled and said, "Sister She has never tasted Zeng Cake before, please sir sell some Zeng Cake for her to taste."

Goatee looked at Naha who was drooling and shook his head, "Is this your sister?"

Yun Chu nodded and said, "My dear."

Hearing what Yunchu said, Goatee's eyes immediately changed when he looked at Naha as if he were looking at goods. He quickly cut a piece of steamer cake and handed it to Yunchu, saying, "I don't know if this is the little girl from our official family. I'm sorry."

Yun Chu waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, a certain family would like to ask Mr., how many steamed cakes should I buy to allow one of my camel caravans to enter Yumen Pass?"

Goat Hu smiled and said: "My zeng cake mainly uses the yellow rice produced in Chang'an Cheng's Longshouyuan Shanghaotiandi, and I also use the jujubes from the Li's Jujube Garden in Leyouyuan. After careful selection, it meets Yuchi The family-produced glutinous rice is steamed with melted water from snow mountains, and Mr. Lang wants my zeng cake, which is not cheap."

Yun Chu smiled and said: "Of course there is no reason to sell good things cheaply, not to mention anything else, just Cheng's yellow rice, Li's jujube, and Yuchi's Jiangmi are enough to be respected.

Please, Mr. Lang, just report a number and see if the younger brother can make up enough. "

Goatee was very satisfied with Yun Chu's performance, so he tapped the broken table with his finger and said, "How many camels are there?"

Yun Chu calculated in his heart for a moment and said: "Except for some pack horses that have to go to the main entrance with Zhechong Mansion, there are less than [-] camels going to the door of Langjun."

The goatee was taken aback, looked up at Yun Chu and said, "What did you bring, why are you so many?"

Yunchu sighed and said, "When the Shangzhou Zhechong mansion left the customs, there were quite a few thousand and five hundred soldiers. There was a bloody battle in Kucha, and less than seven hundred soldiers returned. My captain doesn't know how to go back to Shangzhou to see the elders. Folks, I have no choice but to collect more goods that are worthless in the Western Regions but worth a little in Chang'an, and sell them in Chang'an to compensate those poor orphans and widows.

Mr. Lang also knows that a soldier who died in battle is not worth a good donkey, please Mr. Lang, for the sake of those orphans and widows, give us a way to survive. "

The middle-aged man with a goatee frowned, and after a while he said to Yunchu, "I'll come as soon as I go." After saying that, he hurried past the people in line and went straight into Yumen Pass.

Naha had finished eating the steamed cake in her hand, so she continued to look at the big piece of steamed cake. Yunchu was not polite, and used the knife left by the goatee to cut a big piece for Naha where the dates were thick. Wrap it with reed leaves and continue to eat.

He himself ate a big piece, and generally speaking, the steamed cake made from the goatee was really good.

The goatee never came back, Naha always wanted to eat rice cakes, and Yunchu also wanted to eat rice cakes, so he ate while waiting.

Unknowingly, the two brothers and sisters ate a pot full of steamed cakes and ate them upside down.

When the goatee returned, it was already an hour later, and he was not at all surprised that the Yunchu brothers and sisters ate up all his steamed cakes. Everyone who came back from the Western Regions did not like his dim sum.

"For the sake of the soldiers who died in battle, five hundred gold!"

Yunchu was very satisfied with the price. 500 taels of gold would be enough to bring all the camel teams into Yumen Pass, avoiding censorship. It seemed that the Yumen Captain's Mansion really took good care of the soldiers who died in battle.

After making an appointment to go to the city on the second watch, Yunchu returned to the camp with Naha, who had a bulging belly after eating.

"A certain family heard that the Cheng family was selfless in the Yumen Pass, and did not show favoritism." Ding Dayou was very suspicious of the customs clearance news brought by Yunchu.

Yun Chu smiled and said: "No one in this world can be completely selfless and not favoritism, even His Majesty can't do it, and once the ministers really achieve the above eight characters, I'm afraid even the dogs in Chang'an won't be willing to come near their house .

And I heard that the Cheng family is also the home of Zhongming Dingshi in Chang'an. As long as we find the right way, we can naturally transport [-] camels into Yumen Pass with [-] gold. "

"However, the Cheng family has really been stern and selfless at Yumen Pass. Over the years, no one who has passed through Yumen Pass has complained."

Yun Chu sniffled and said: "In the daytime, Yumenguan is dedicated to the country, which is upright, and at night, Yumenguan is dedicated to selfishness, which is compassionate.

Only those who are upright and compassionate can be a good official and a high official.

Both are indispensable. "

The demands of the night are different
