Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 108
Xie Bao raised his head and asked Sun Xindao: "Could it be that Master means that we can build a big Zhuangzi like Master in the future?"

Sun Xin patted Jie Bao's head with a smile: "Such no ambition, this ability to manage people, but there is no practice that cannot be practiced. Now you have each started to learn how to manage more than a dozen dealers. In the future If Zhuangzi expands, you have to learn to manage hundreds of people, and manage thousands of people."

Manage thousands of people... Xie Bao finally heard something, his eyes lit up.

Sun Xin, on the other hand, didn't want to go any further. He didn't have that much strength yet, so it didn't make much sense to reveal his ambition so quickly. As long as there was such a talk, the interest of the three disciples would be raised. That's fine.

Xie Zhen and Zou Run discussed it, but the three guys didn't have much idea about the circumstances under which they had to manage thousands of people. Sun Xin lowered his head and chopped the meat, ignoring their discussion.

The three of them quarreled and talked about it, all of which were about the idea of ​​being able to go out and start a village in the future. In the end, Zou Run's head was not working, so he quit his fantasy for the time being, and said while chopping the meat: "I'd better follow Master to do things well. In the future, Master will If I can become a powerful party, I will be a big boss for Master's subordinates."

The three apprentices each have their own personalities. Xie Zhen and Jie Bao are somewhat ambitious. Among them, Xie Bao may be more ambitious, but Zou Run, the oldest, is the most loyal to Sun Xin.

In any case, the three apprentices have been under Sun Xin for more than a year, and Sun Xin can also see that they are not malicious people, at least not now.

The three of them took a cart, borrowed a donkey from someone in the cow and horse market, and drove back to Shili Pai by the time it was already afternoon.

The running water table hasn't left yet, but the earliest guests have already eaten.Sun Xin went in and greeted the guests who came to congratulate him, and saw Luan Tingyu waving to him from a distance.Walking forward, he saw Luan Tingyu talking to a young man waiting for him.

The young man was squatting on the ground, talking to Luan Tingyu, while repairing a simple knife in his hand.

In this day and age, there are still restrictions on carrying weapons when you go out. If you leave the countryside like Shili Pai, if foreigners from Chuanzhou cross the government with shining knives and guns, they will definitely be stopped by soldiers for interrogation.

Therefore, the self-defense weapons generally carried by martial arts practitioners are mainly some less obvious weapons.

For example, Luan Tingyu's iron rod, Sun Xin's iron whip, these heavy weapons don't look very scary, and they won't be too much trouble if they are wrapped in cloth strips outside, and the plain knife is another kind of weapon that is always used. The thing is actually a variant of the hatchet. When passing through the state, the iron part of the plain knife is removed and hung on the waist, which can be said to be a farming tool. When leaving the state capital, the long handle is used to wedge the knife In an instant, a hatchet turned into a two-handed simple knife with a long handle.

Luan Tingyu introduced to Sun Xin that this young man was sent by Zhou Tong, and that he was a new junior recruited by his master in Wangjiazhuang.

Sun Xin greeted him and asked, "Is Master not here today?"

While speaking, the young man wedged a new wooden stick into the handle of the simple knife, picked it up and played with it, it was very strong.

He looked up at Sun Xin and Luan Tingyu, with a bit of embarrassment on his face: "Master seems to have some opinions on the two senior brothers."

"If you have an opinion on me, it's all right, why are you still angry with your brother?"

Luan Tingyu smiled wryly and said: "What else could it be for? Earlier you brushed off Master's face, and I said that it has been a long time and he let go of it, but now it is my younger brother who told me that if I went elsewhere to pay back That's all, I came to follow you, but the master felt that I was against him with you, and I was afraid that if the news got out, he would lose face among his disciples."

Sun Xin thought for a while and waved his hands: "I don't think Master is such a person."

Sun Xin knew Zhou Tong's temper very well, but he had to say that, otherwise it would be very difficult to meet Zhou Tong in the future.

The younger brother smiled wryly, took out the two red envelopes in his arms and handed them to Sun Xindao: "This is a gift that Master asked me to send, and the other one is my own."

Before Luan Tingyu introduced that this younger brother is also a wealthy son in Dengzhou City, and he doesn't care about paying such a small amount of money. Sun Xin took it over when he knew this festival, and said to his younger brother: "We will go to Wangjiazhuang to pay a visit to Master in the next festival. Woolen cloth."

The younger brother said: "That is also a way, the master saves face, if the two senior brothers come to visit him, they will definitely not miss him."

The younger brother had to go back to Wangjiazhuang today, and after talking for a while, he picked up the simple knife and left.

Sun Xin went back into the courtyard, and saw Le Cheng holding a sesame candied melon and a few farmer's children running around noisily outside.

Several children were clamoring for food, but Le Cheng refused to give it.

A few children accidentally touched Le Cheng while they were fighting, and the Tanggua fell to the ground and broke with a bang. The children didn't care about the dirt and quickly picked up the Tanggua and stuffed it into their mouths.An angry Le Cheng scolded there.

As soon as he saw Sun Xin coming in, Le Cheng dragged his uncle to sue, "This is the candied melon that Sister Ya'er gave me, and they snatched it away."

Sun Xin stopped those children from continuing to put the candied melons stained with melted snow and mud into their mouths, and said to the children: "Go to Ya'er and say I told you, let her bring you a candy." Melon, go quickly."

The children were all beaming when they heard that, and ran to the kitchen in a commotion.

Le Cheng sniffled, and Sun Xin said to him: "You can get one later." Then he asked: "Where's your father?"

Le Cheng pointed to the back room and said, "Daddy is talking with some uncles inside."

Sun Xin turned around and entered the inner courtyard.

At this time, the snow had stopped, and the mid-afternoon sun emerged from between the clouds, shining warmly on the ground. Although it could not melt the snow, it also made the air no longer so cold.

When Sun Xin entered the courtyard, he saw Li Ying, Le He and others were there. They did not sit in the back room to face the fire, but sat on the rocks or leaned against the big tree in the courtyard and quarreled there. There is no difference in the way the chat spanking looks.

Sun Xin approached and heard that it was about his Sun Family Village that several people were making a fuss about.He also smiled and stood aside to listen.

Soon Sun Xin discovered that discussing Li Ying, Hu Cheng, and Sun Li were confronting Zhu Chaofeng and Lehe, while Hu Taigong was laughing and listening.

Li Ying said in a clear voice: "Now Sun Xin's Sun Family Village has made some famous things, but it's just entrenched in the countryside, so what's the development? Sun Xin should go to this Dengzhou city more. He This ten-mile card is different from our Dulonggang. It is next to the state capital. How can a powerful man not rely on the yamen to do things under such circumstances? Now that Sun Lixian is also a magistrate, there will be acquaintances in the yamen in the future. Only Zhuangzi can keep everything safe. If you don’t cling to the government, I see that Zhuangzi will not do well in the future.”

Hu Cheng also nodded when he heard the words: "Yes, the government still needs some manpower, otherwise it will be difficult for those people from the yamen to come to the countryside to check taxes and accounts."
