At the end of Qin, I became a son of the plane

Chapter 346, Hu Hai’s bewitchment and chaotic Sanchuan County

After hearing Hu Hai's words, Zhu Zhu and others all took a breath of air. The porcelain bottle in Hu Hai's hand could be held with the palm of his hand. Zhu Zhu and the others estimated that it only cost 2-3 taels, but it was so expensive.

Hu Hai smiled proudly and said, "Now you know how precious spices are."

Zhu Zhu waved his hands repeatedly and said: "We can't afford it, we can't afford it, we can't afford this spice."

The small bottle in Hu Hai's hand was their family's income for several months, so it's no wonder Zhu Zhu said they couldn't afford it.

Hu Hai said: "You people just have no ambitions. It's just spices. What can't you afford? The big man has discovered a spice island. The island is full of these spices. As long as you board a boat and land on the island, you can pick it at will." , the spices picked by the Han court were worth hundreds of thousands of gold. "

Hu Hai waved his hands and exaggerated: "The pile of gold is as high as a hill."

"Now all the heroes in the world are rushing to Kuaiji County, just to find the Spice Island. They can go to the island and pick up a ship of spices. When they return to the Han Dynasty, they can make people rich, and generations of people will not have to worry about food and drink."

"Luan Bu knows, he was the one who discovered the Spice Island. Because of this contribution, he was granted the title of Marquis of Che by the Han Emperor. There were dozens of officers and soldiers who followed him, including dozens of viscount barons. Even ordinary soldiers had tens of thousands of dollars. reward."

"And after returning home, the local nobles and powerful men married with them one after another, and these poor boys became high-class nobles in one step."

But the lesson learned last time also made Hu Hai understand that not everyone in the world is like Guanzhong, and local Han officials will not be as reasonable as Guanzhong Han officials.

But the emperor said that the Spice Island is the Spice Island of the people of the world, and that is their Spice Island.

Hu Hai glared at them and said, "I can still lie to you."

How can a serious person follow Hu Hai and travel around the world?

"Brother Hu Hai, you are a capable man, let's go with you." Zhu Zi thought about Hu Hai's statement just now that he wanted to marry a noble girl and said firmly, they would never be able to marry a noble girl if they stayed in Zhao Li.

"Of course I do, but how can a noble girl like us?" Zhu Zhu said.
Hu Hai said: "Let me tell you clearly, I also want to go to Kuaiji County and join this world of wealth. As long as we can be rich, marrying a noble daughter will not be a problem."

"As the saying goes, one person is weak but three people are strong. If a dozen of us join forces, we may not be able to make a name for ourselves. How about it? Do you want to go to Kuaiji County with me?"

Marrying a noble girl is probably not just wishful thinking.

The fear of what happened in Shangjun has gradually dissipated, and Hu Hai has the idea of ​​​​entering the world again.

With the power of the Han nobles, they could still find a way to get some sea ships. To recruit sailors, they would look for Peng Yue and Luan Bu, but it would be difficult to find someone to lead the way to the Spice Island.

He was lucky last time. It happened that his eldest brother was doing corvee service in Shangjun and someone came to rescue him, but he would not be so lucky next time something happened.

Hu Hai really didn't deceive him. There were only a thousand soldiers who went to Spice Island. If Spice Island was officially run, they would not dare to say anything.

It is too dangerous to go out alone, but it is much safer if there is a group of people to help. So Hu Hai came up with the idea of ​​​​Zhu Zhu and others.

The princes and generals also want to marry noble girls.

It's a pity that Zhuzi and others were strongly suppressed by their parents as soon as they expressed their thoughts to their families.

"Don't you just want to marry a village girl and stay in this little Zhaoli all your life, with your face turned to the earth and your back to the sky? Don't you want to marry a noble girl as your wife?"

They believed that Luan Bu was a general who was entrusted with the title of Chehou, and they also believed that officers became minor nobles. But the tens of thousands of dollars that an ordinary soldier could receive was the limit of their imagination, but Hu Hai told them that a small soldier could still marry a noblewoman, which was a bit beyond the limit. their imagination.

"Is this true?" So people couldn't believe it.

After receiving Hu Hai's confirmation, Zhu Zhu and others were filled with envy. Although Da Qin was awarded titles for military merit, very few of them ascended to high positions as small soldiers. Now I suddenly heard that someone with a similar status to them had become a noble and married a noble daughter. This is just like ordinary people in later generations hearing about people winning hundreds of millions in lottery tickets.

Hu Hai said: "A man was born between heaven and earth, how can he be trapped in this small village? Those soldiers of the Han army are much stronger than us. Whether they have one more head or two more hands, can they become nobles?" , Marry your daughter, why can’t I wait!”

There are only these thousands of people. Excluding the soldiers controlled by the imperial court, there are only a few dozen people who are actually retired. Naturally, these dozens of people have become popular. Not only the low-level nobles are willing to marry them, but also the earls. family.

Moreover, they have even started building a new house. As soon as the new house is completed, they will find wives for them and complete the task of opening up their branches. If a good man enters the world, that is something only a rogue would do.

But they never expected that the more they suppressed, the fiercer the resistance of the Zhuzi people would become.

November 12th.

The villagers in Zhaoli discovered that Zhuzi and others were missing. After asking around, the parents of these villagers found out that Hu Hai had chartered a rail carriage, and the people with Zhu Zhu had already gone to Luoyang City. At the speed of the rail carriage, it should be It has already exceeded the boundaries of the county seat.

"Master Zhao, if you want to make the decision for us, my boy was abducted by your brother Hu Hai."

"I've even found a matchmaker. I'll wait until the house is built and find him a wife. Now it's over and everyone has run away. You have to give us an explanation."

Facing these bustling villagers, Fusu could only smile bitterly and said: "They have gone far away. It will be difficult to catch them back now. The world of the Han Dynasty is much safer than before. Nothing big should happen to them. They go to make trouble." It’s good to see the outside world.”

Li Changjiang Tao said: "They are not children. They decided to make their own way in the world. What does it have to do with Master Zhao?"

"That's not what you said. My child has always been an honest person. If it weren't for Hu Hai's instigation, how could he have done such a thing."

Fusu could only say: "I still have some old friends in the south. I will write a letter right now and ask them to take care of me and see if I can persuade them to come back."

Jiang Tao saw that there were still villagers who wanted to cause trouble and said loudly: "Hu Hai is also a capable person. Maybe they can really make a name for themselves. Stop surrounding Mrs. Zhao here. They can't come back even if they are surrounded here."

The words were divided into two parts. The track carriage hired by Hu Hai and the others was very fast. The carriage left Guanzhong in one day.

Then they hired several carriages and drove all the way to Luoyang City.

"There are so many people in Luoyang City." Zhu Zhu and others were amazed when they saw the endless flow of people in Luoyang City.

Although Zhu Zhu and others are common people under Chang'an City, they have never been to Chang'an City. Luoyang City was the first super city they saw. Hu Hai said: "What is this? There are more people in Chang'an City than this, and it is also prosperous."

Then Hu Hai held his head high and said: "We are from Chang'an. Don't be looked down upon by the people in Luoyang City as bumpkins. We, the Chang'an people, will lose face for nothing."

Zhuzi and others also imitated Hu Hai and held their heads high.

"Dang Dang Dang!" A sound of gongs and drums suddenly came from the street.

Hu Hai's people ran over curiously.

At this time, they saw a dozen prison cars traveling on the streets of Luoyang City.

The county captain Dianqing yelled: "All outsiders from Guanzhong, Hebei Province, please listen carefully. Sanchuan County is not a place outside the law. Anyone who dares to do anything illegal here will be chased to the ends of the earth. When you capture them, the people in these prison cars are your role models.”

"Color!" Dianqing's words made the residents of Luoyang City cheer.

Of course, the outside rangers were a little frightened when they saw the miserable appearance of their companions in the prison car.

Hu Hai and the others were a little confused. He asked a local person: "It's the custom of you Luoyang people to let prisoners parade in the streets?"

The local man saw Hu Hai and said coldly: "Are you a foreigner too?"

Hu Hai said: "He's from Chang'an City."

The man's face was kind and he said: "These rangers are doing evil in Sanchuan County. The county guard has reported to the emperor to severely suppress these rangers. You'd better stay safe and keep yourselves, otherwise these people will be your fate."

Hu Hai asked a few more people and then understood the whole story.

Since then, the incident on Spice Island has spread to the entire Han Dynasty.

From south to north, from the Yellow River to the Yangtze River Basin, there is a large wave of migration. These people want to make a fortune on the Spice Island. The more barren the land, the more people come out.

And these people who come out to make a living are called rangers in a nice way, and unemployed hooligans in a bad way. These people don't have much money in their hometown, so they come out to make a living.

But these days, basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation are free of charge. Traveling around the world costs even more money. Hu Hai spent 300 yuan on a rail carriage to travel miles. For their own safety, Zhu Zhu and the others were equipped with swords, which cost yuan. In addition to the food and accommodation expenses along the way, Hu Hai and the others had already spent yuan, which shows that the cost of going out these days is high.

Without the support of Hu Hai, a rich local man, Zhu Zhu and the others would not even be able to get out of Guanzhong.

Many rangers go all the way from the northernmost point of Dahan to the southernmost point of Dahan. The cost of traveling several thousand miles is not small, and it is simply not something that these rangers or hooligans can afford.

But as the saying goes, mice have their own way and cats have their own way. What should these rangers and hooligans do if they have no money?
Of course, they cannot save money honestly, but they cheat and commit all kinds of evil.

And Sanchuan County is the core of the Han Dynasty. People traveling from south to north have to pass through here, and rangers who want to go south gather in large numbers. Coupled with the wealth of this place, it arouses the greed of the Rangers and refugees.

The criminal investigation ability of this era is not as good as that of later generations. The rangers did evil things and fled without being caught. And in this day and age, many times even the real culprit cannot be found.

The Rangers had this idea, just to steal money or kill someone and then run away.

For a time, the security situation in Sanchuan County deteriorated rapidly. There were dozens of robbery cases or major murder cases almost every day.

Zhou Bo, the governor of Sanchuan County, was furious, thinking that these knights and rogues were slapping him in the face.

You must know that due to the tax reform of Sanchuan County this year, Sanchuan County increased taxes by 50% in a year, and the taxes paid to the court ranked fourth in the country, only behind Neishi County, Chen County, and Kuaiji County.

Shocking the entire Han Dynasty, the emperor issued an order to commend Zhou Bo and asked all county governors in the world to follow Zhou Bo's example. The tax reform also centered on Sanchuan County and expanded to the entire six counties of the Central Plains.

It can be said that this year was Zhou Bo's most prosperous year. Even the "Han Monthly" published his deeds and called on all Han officials in the world to learn from him and become the pioneer of Han reform.

As a result, as soon as he returned to Sanchuan County from Chang'an City, security incidents in Sanchuan County broke out violently, and dozens of people even died. Even the "Rule of Law Monthly" published a special report on this matter, which made Zhou Bo lose face again in front of the world.

How could Zhou Bo not be angry about this? He immediately wrote to the court, stating the severe public security environment in Sanchuan County at this time, and believed that a severe crackdown was necessary to deter these lawless rangers.

The emperor said: "Yes!"

Ting Wei Wu Guang was ordered to sit in Sanchuan County and suppress the local rangers with a strict attitude.

Zhou Bo recruited 50,000 militiamen in Sanchuan County to closely guard important areas in each village. Whenever a vicious case was discovered, he would immediately recruit militiamen and arrest strangers nearby. Zhou Bo would not let go of the rangers who escaped from Sanchuan County and would personally lead them to collect them. catch.

Among them was a ranger from Yanmen who committed a massacre during the crackdown and killed five members of his family. Zhou Bo personally led 5,000 people to strictly guard the pass and search the mountains for patrols. He spent three days in Beimang Mountain. of a mountain to catch this ranger.

Zhou Bo personally escorted the ranger to Wu Guang. With overwhelming evidence, Wu Guang sentenced the ranger to hanging on the spot. Hang the ranger directly in the northern suburbs of Luoyang City to frighten the rangers in Hebei.

In less than a month of severe crackdown, Sanchuan County arrested more than 2000 rangers, and executed hundreds of them despite irrefutable evidence. Although the other rangers were the most suspected because of insufficient evidence, the big man had no doubts and was innocent at most. You save your life and will be sent directly to Liaodong to cultivate wasteland.

Zhou Bo relied on such tough methods and the strict monitoring methods of Sanchuan County militia. Sanchuan County used harsh, cruel and cold-blooded methods to crack down on all rangers who dared to commit crimes in the local area.

Rangers everywhere were frightened by Zhou Bo's methods and no longer dared to take random actions. Instead, they worked peacefully to make money before continuing south.

Hu Hai took a breath after hearing this. If the locals misunderstood him as a ranger, there would be no reason to say anything.

He immediately said to Zhu Zhu and others: "Don't wander around here, stay in crowded places, and don't go to chaotic places like taverns. Those rangers are so poor that they only have a sword, but they still dare to go out and make a living in the world." , I simply don’t know what to say.”

But when Hu Hai looked at Zhu Zhu and the others, their expressions became solemn, because Zhu Zhu and the others were wearing linen clothes, with a wooden stick in their buns, and the swords he bought were stuck in their waists. They looked like down-and-out rangers.

So Hu Hai immediately said: "Let's go and take you to change into new clothes. You can't have these clothes anymore."
