Chapter 1505 The Poor and the Rich [Free]

[PS: Sorry, it was supposed to be the fourth update today, but now the garbage author is sick again. He started to have a fever when he came back from Dalian, and I don’t know when it will stop. I managed to write two chapters during the day today. 】

[Because the rubbish author broke his promise, these two chapters are free. I’m really sorry. When the fever subsides, I will start the fourth update]

Let's go back in time to when this plot just started to be serialized. At this time, Liu Xu was in the common people's world dealing with the attacks of twenty ancient demon saints in the demon world. The updates in the entire author's world were naturally based on the pre-set time. Automatically updated.

Although the readers at the time were a little surprised by the sudden appearance of this little monk Chen Yi, they didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, characters often pop up in "Tian Khan" and then create a plot of the story.

After all, this Chen Yi has had some plot foreshadowing before, so it’s not too abrupt.

It wasn't until another chapter was updated today that things changed.

On this day, Liu Xu's group of hundreds of thousands of readers seemed to be completely calm. Except for some people who continued to pour water into the group, most of them were silent.

But this is normal. After all, Liu Xu is now an old author. The novel has been updated and serialized for almost ten years. Most readers are also a little tired. Coupled with the laziness of garbage authors who update every day, no one is in the group. Chatting is also very normal.

Even if the group prompts that a new chapter has been updated, there is no sound of another person speaking. After all, if you scroll up the chat history, you will find that there is only a slight difference between the update prompt of this chapter and the update prompt of the previous chapter. Just twenty or so people spoke.

This is a large group of 5000 people. With such popularity, one can imagine the popularity of the entire novel.

Of course, this does not mean that no one has read Liu Xu’s novels, but now reading Liu Xu’s novels is like eating and drinking water. You will not be in the group just because you have just eaten a home-cooked meal. Chat for a long time...unless you go to a five-star hotel for a big meal.

And today, it happens to be time for a big meal.

Three minutes after the update prompt appeared, someone in the group finally spoke.

"Pure passerby: grass!"

"Pure passerby: Digging!"

"Pure passerby: Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow!!"

Probably because there were too many cursive characters, it really attracted a group friend, who asked blankly, "Why are you cursive? Don't you know you need to care for flowers and plants?"

"The latest chapter! Hurry up and read the latest chapter, big news, big news! Damn it, it turns out that the garbage author still has such a skill, it's just too poignant!!" Looking at the reader's somewhat crazy performance, While others felt they didn't understand, they naturally couldn't help but look at the new chapter.

If there are many readers who haven't read the book in a few months, they can only read it from where they were before, so the response will be a bit slow.

Of course, there are also those who just happened to finish reading the latest chapter yesterday and directly opened the chapter that was just updated.

The content at the beginning of this chapter is relatively normal. The monk named Chen Yi took the initiative to visit Qin Qiong, his savior, and then told about his experience of traveling around the world in the past two years, describing what he saw in various places. The miserable lives of the people and so on. After listening to Chen Yi's story, Qin Qiong, who had lived in poverty for several days, said with emotion, "Yes, the Sui Dynasty went against the grain and the people were in endless pain, and we followed His Majesty in revolting." Sui. It's a pity that it is easy to conquer the world, but it is difficult to conquer the world. It is even harder to make the people of the world live a good life. "

"That's right, young master, please rest assured. Even if we spend our whole lives, we must let the people live a good life!" Qin Qiong's words were sincere, but Chen Yi shook his head and said, "One life is too far. , The suffering is too close, and many people may not be able to wait for Duke Yi's life. "

"..." Qin Qiong's eyebrows jumped when he heard this. If it weren't for the monk in front of him and his close relationship, he would have sent the guests off directly.

"Then I wonder how the young master can govern the world and help these people live a good life as soon as possible?" Qin Qiong asked.

"The Duke is ridiculous. The young monk is just a monk and does not know how to govern the world. However, the young monk once saw a poor man and a rich man. The poor man's family did not have three inches of land, his head pointed to the sky, he had no ready-made clothes when he went out, and he had no farm tools when he went to the ground. We share the same quilt, and all the sun eclipses are like chaff.”

"Oh, how miserable this family is!" Qin Qiong sighed.

"Yes, after the young monk learned about his family situation, he also felt that his family was very miserable. However, when he talked with him, he found that his face was always happy and never sad. If a chicken is caught by a wild fox, ordinary people should sigh with regret and curse. He couldn't stop. But he was very happy and said, "There is a nest of young raccoon slaves to live in!" ""

"There was also government recruitment. His eldest son had already been drafted into the army last year. Logically speaking, his family should not be drafted again, but the big households next to his house should be drafted. But because the big households bribed him with gold and silver, his family was The second son was conscripted into the army again."

"He has only two sons in his family, and now both of them have gone to the army, leaving only an old, weak and young daughter in the family. It stands to reason that he should cry endlessly every day, lamenting the unfairness of the world and the court, but he is still very happy. It is the warrior who said that the world is in chaos today. When you become famous, you might have a general!"

"Therefore, even if this poor man's life becomes more miserable, he becomes happier every day, and so does his family. Now he is nearly seventy years old, and he is still in high spirits and shows no sign of decline."

"This is painful for the body but happy for the mind!"

"Besides, this rich family is the big family that the young monk just mentioned. This family has thousands of acres of fertile land, thousands of tenants, houses connected by mountains and rivers, nine in and eighteen out, dozens of houses, and more than a hundred servants. Although he cannot be compared with the wealth of princes, generals and ministers, he is also a luxurious family. I think there are few things in the world that can make him sad. "

"But when the young monk met him, he always looked sad. When I asked him, he said that the elder didn't like farming and only liked to do business. He lamented that it was difficult for him to inherit the family business."

"Although my son likes to read, he doesn't know anything about the affairs at home. If he can't become an official, wouldn't this book be in vain?"

"The young monk spoke leniently to him, but his bitter look did not change."

"Later we met again, and his face was even more miserable. The young monk thought that his family business had been damaged, so he asked him and found out that his eldest son returned home as a businessman, earned ten times the profit, and bought thousands of acres of fertile land nearby. , the family fortune has doubled. This was originally a good thing, but he is worried that the land deeds were made by the Sui Dynasty and now belong to the Tang Dynasty. What if the Tang Dynasty does not recognize these land deeds. "

"I am also worried that these lands belong to different surrounding counties and are not connected to each other. It is extremely difficult to manage them. How to connect them, etc."

"And the younger son was originally going to be drafted into the army. However, he had been studying since he was a child and went to the battlefield. So he spent a hundred taels of silver to exchange for a child from a poor family next door. But he heard that this child from a poor family Because he has been running around in the fields since he was a child, he has strong physical strength, has made many military exploits, and is already a military attache. If he leads his army back to seek revenge, the whole family will be killed! "

"The young monk comforted him again, but it was useless. When we met last year, he was already overwhelmed and drove west."
