Three Kingdoms in a box

Chapter 51 The powerful Qian family at the village level
"Brothers, move slowly."

Zhang Bao faced Zhang Jiao at the door, and Qian Min bowed to see him off. Qian Min looked at Zhang Bao's attitude and said, "Erlang has changed so quickly today!"

Seeing Qian Min's question, Zhang Jiao smiled and said, "Maybe I was influenced by my brother's sincerity."

When Qian Min heard this, he looked at Zhang Jue and then at Zhang Bao, thinking to himself, you think I'm a fool. Erlang has changed so much before and after. He doesn't believe it because of his sincerity. However, He didn't want to pursue the specific reasons.

His mission today was to invite Zhang Jiao home. As long as he accomplished his goal, he didn't want to worry about anything else.

The two left Zhang's house and walked all the way to the west of the village.

As soon as the two villains moved, the scenery inside Li Yu's box changed rapidly. Li Yu had never seen what the scenery in the West Village looked like.

The east and west of the village are bounded by a small river. When there is enough rain, this small river still has some water, but now that the weather is dry, the water has bottomed out, exposing the river bed underneath.

The two crossed the small river and came directly to the west of the village. The scenery in the west of the village was indeed different from that in the east of the village. Most of the houses in the east of the village were shabby, but the houses in the west of the village were very similar. Although most of them were yellow mud houses, most of them looked like Zhangjiao. It's like a home, a nice yellow mud house.

Li Yu was lying on the box at this time, looking at everything in the west of the village curiously. He felt a sense of curiosity about entering Dahan Village and understanding the structure of Dahan Village.

It is obvious that most of the houses of the Han Dynasty are adobe houses, with some wooden structures mixed in, but the upper floors are already blue brick houses.

And the area is quite large, which shows that the Han Dynasty already had brick-burning technology!

Li Yu followed Zhang Jiao's perspective and finally came to the Qian family's residence in the west of the village, which was like a kingdom in the village.

This is a large courtyard with three entrances. The houses are tall and look like houses, and the whole building is made of green bricks. Compared with the surrounding yellow mud houses, this courtyard is really a palace in the village!

This is the Qian family in Xiagouhe Village, a small local tycoon. In an era when the Han Dynasty has many aristocratic families and countless tycoons, such a small tycoon cannot be ranked at all.

Just like the popular cartoon about the Little Monster on Journey to the West, the little pig monster thinks he is a lofty and powerful mountain king, but he will be beaten to death by Zhu Bajie with a rake.

The Qian family in Xiagouhe Village is like a mountain king in the eyes of the little pig demon.

He is the sky in Xiagouhe Village, but in the entire Jizhou, let alone the entire Jizhou, it is the entire Julu, and it should not be the entire Guang'a County.

However, such a village tyrant makes the villagers of Xiagouhe dare not offend easily. Even if the Qian family is cruel and can easily end lives and deaths, no one will report him.

Even the county magistrate can't control it.

The head of the Qian family is called Qian Shao, and he serves as the head of the Xiagouhe Pavilion, which is equivalent to Liu Bang's position back then. It can be regarded as the village chief level of the village.

At this time, Zhang Jue came to the door of Qian's house. Qian Min asked his followers to knock on the door. Soon the door opened. Inside was a man wrapped in white cloth. When the man saw Zhang Jue, a look of emotion appeared on his face. Feeling hatred, this person was none other than Qian Wu who was beaten up by the villagers that day.

Qian Wu looked at Zhang Jue with vicious eyes, but Zhang Jue was not afraid at all. Looking at Qian Wu, he turned to Qian Min and said: "Brother Qian, you are a loyal servant. You are so seriously injured and you still come to open the door. That's right. Not bad." Qian Min heard this and immediately said: "Brother Zhang is joking, Qian Wu, if you don't go back to rest, what are you doing out here? Where is my father?"

"The master has already set up the food and wine in the lotus pond pavilion, waiting for Zhang Dalang!"

Qian Wu bit the word "Zhang Dalang" very hard, and the meaning was very obvious. Even though everyone calls you a great virtuous teacher, when you are here, you are the down-and-out Zhang Dalang!

Zhang Jiao understood Qian Wu's words, but didn't say much. Instead, he looked at Qian Min with a smile on his face. Qian Min's face immediately darkened and he shouted to Qian Wu: "Go back, Brother Zhang." You are an honored guest, how can I allow you to be noisy and disrespectful!"

A wealthy family attaches great importance to rules, so Qian Wu only said one or two words, but Qian Wu made several sarcastic sentences in succession, which immediately made Qian Min lose control. It would be too embarrassing if he couldn't control his dog!
Qian Min scolded Qian Wu. Qian Wu felt aggrieved. He was ordered by the Qian family to cause trouble, but now he was bullied. Not only did his master not make decisions for him, but he also scolded himself. Sure enough, being a dog has no human rights!

After Qian Wu retreated, Zhang Jiao and Qian Min entered the Qian family compound and soon came to the lotus pond pavilion. It has to be said that rich families are corrupt. When people have problems drinking water, this money There is actually a lotus pond to see at home, and the pond is still half full of water. How rotten!

At this time, Qian Shao, who was sitting in the lotus pond, stood up and said with a smile on his face: "Ah haha~ My nephew, you are here, but you miss my uncle."

Before anyone arrived, the voice came first. Qian Shao laughed and stood up. Zhang Jiao cupped his hands at Qian Shao. According to his father's calculations, this Qian Shao was indeed his uncle.

"I met my uncle."

Qian Shao laughed and said, "No courtesy, no courtesy."

"Come on, sit down."

Qian Shao pulled Zhang Jiao to sit down. Zhang Jiao knelt down in front of the table. In the Han Dynasty, the meal sharing system was used. Each person had a small case. Zhang Jiao glanced at his table and found that there were many food and drinks. One pot of wine, one cup A dog leg and a bowl of corn rice.

This was considered a rich meal for ordinary people, especially this dog leg, which seemed to be worth a lot of money.

The main meat of the Han Dynasty was dog meat. Pork had not yet been castrated and tasted unpalatable, so it was not accepted by the Han people. Therefore, the Han people ate more dog meat, and the famous generals in the early Han Dynasty, Fan Kuai, and the great general He who was about to enter the stage of history. Those who join such a butcher are those who kill dogs, and their status is not low, they are considered powerful.

The three of them knelt down and sat in a small pavilion, drinking and chatting. It was all about innocuous things at first. After talking for a long time, Qian Shao couldn't help but said: "My dear nephew, you heard that my servant Qian Wu came back to report that my nephew has learned the magic of gods. You can ask for help." Rain, I don’t know if it’s true or not?”

At this time, Zhang Jiao swallowed the dog meat in his mouth, took a sip of wine and said, "The method of making rain is the power of the Immortal Lord. Jiao just invited the Immortal Lord to bring down the rain."

When Qian Shao heard this and saw that Zhang Jiao did not refuse, he said happily: "My nephew, you are being too modest. To be honest, my uncle invited my nephew here today because he has something to ask for. I wonder if my nephew can agree?" "

Qian Shao looked at Zhang Jiao and said, Zhang Jiao already knew the implication after hearing this, and then half-jokingly said: "Uncle, you don't want to ask Jiao to pray for rain, do you?"

Hearing this, Qian Shao laughed and said, "My nephew is indeed a smart person. He can tell the truth at once. I can leave my uncle's [-] acres of fertile land to my nephew!"
