The ace special forces of the Sui Dynasty

The next day, the Yang family really came.Yang Heihu took four followers and stood far away at the entrance of the village.On such an occasion, Yang Jishan would not show up.

Although the cooperation contract had been signed, the villagers were still vigilant. Seeing someone approaching, the conch horn rang.

Although Xiao Xin is old, his eyes are not blurred at all, and he recognized Yang Heihu early on, and he couldn't help but admire: "Daniu, your prediction is really accurate! But since they are here, why do they hide so far away?"

Liu Ziqiu said with a smile: "It must have been frightened by the trap that night."

Xiao Xin also laughed and said, "Okay, I'll invite them in."

Yang Heihu was also considered a man, he casually threw the saber to his servant, and followed Xiao Xin into the village alone.

Liu Ziqiu was tall and tall, standing among the crowd seemed to stand out from the crowd, Yang Heihu recognized him at the first sight, and said with a sneer, "Sure enough, there are tall people!"

On the beach that day, Liu Ziqiu almost fought Yang Heihu face to face.At that time Yang Heihu covered his face, but Liu Ziqiu remembered those fierce eyes deeply.It was only today that Liu Ziqiu had the opportunity to look at Yang Heihu up close. He was born with a big arm and a round waist, majestic and majestic, but his face was full of evil spirits, and he may have killed many people.

Liu Ziqiu didn't want to show his whereabouts, scratched his head, and said pretending to be simple and honest: "The general has good eyesight, and he is indeed a bit taller next time."

Although Yang Heihu is a general, his status is only higher than other slaves. No one has ever called him a general.Being praised by Liu Ziqiu, Yang Heihu felt a little flustered immediately, and his expression softened a lot. He turned to Xiao Xin and said, "Old man, since the contract is finalized, the saltworks should start construction as soon as possible."

Liu Ziqiu said in a rough voice: "Once the saltworks start, we won't have time to go fishing. You have to pay a month's dividend in advance!"

The last time he retreated without a fight, the more Yang Heihu thought about it after returning, the more useless he became, and he always planned to save face.But the important thing is to start the saltworks. He didn't intend to fight with the villagers today, so he handed the saber to the servant as a sign of friendship.Unexpectedly, Liu Ziqiu jumped out on his own initiative, Yang Heihu laughed and said, "It's not difficult to advance a month's dividend, but I also have a condition."

"What conditions?"

"You have a competition with me. If you win me, in addition to the advance monthly profit, I will add 20 taels of bonus! If you lose, just start working honestly for me!"

Liu Ziqiu took a step back and said: "I just need to be stronger, and I don't know any martial arts. How can I be the opponent of the general?"

Yang Heihu liked to hear this.He boasted that he also had brute strength, so he couldn't help laughing and said, "That's good! I'll compete with you in terms of strength! How do you compare?"

Liu Ziqiu grinned and said, "It's not easy, you punch me, I punch you, whoever knocks down first wins!"

Yang Heihu didn't expect Liu Ziqiu to choose this method, does he have something else to rely on?Yang Heihu calmed down, and punched him first.Liu Ziqiu did not dodge, but took it abruptly.Yang Heihu had already used all his strength in this punch, and with the addition of dark energy, he thought he could break Liu Ziqiu's bones and tendons.Unexpectedly, Liu Ziqiu just swayed, not even his face changed.

Liu Ziqiu shouted loudly, and punched him with a backhand.Yang Heihu was well prepared and easily dodged.Liu Ziqiu yelled: "You are lying!"

Yang Heihu was taken aback, and said, "What are you kidding?"

Liu Ziqiu said seriously: "If you punch me, you should also let me punch you!"

Yang Heihu suddenly felt that he thought highly of this big man, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Whether you can hit me or not depends on your ability."

"That's good! You wait!"

Liu Ziqiu rushed over with a roar, swung his fists violently, and the wind from the fists made Yang Heihu's face ache.Although Yang Heihu felt contemptuous, he didn't dare to be careless and twisted his body to fight Liu Ziqiu.

The two of them punched back and forth, and the sound of "cracking" could be heard endlessly, but it was Yang Heihu's fist that punched Liu Ziqiu's body.The villagers were all worried about "Daniu", but Gao Xiu'er hid behind the crowd with a calm face.

Suddenly there was a loud bang, and a figure flew out and landed heavily on the ground.When everyone hurriedly looked at it, it was Yang Heihu who couldn't help cheering in unison.

In this fierce fight, Yang Heihu punched Liu Ziqiu ten times, and Liu Ziqiu only hit him with one punch, but it was this punch that sent Yang Heihu flying.

Yang Heihu got up from the ground, moved his limbs, found that he was not injured, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Sure enough, I made great efforts, this time I lost! Monthly profit advance, plus 20 taels of bonus, 370 taels, a lot of money ! But the saltworks must be officially started today!"

Through probing, Yang Heihu finally knew that this "big bull" had brute strength, but his movements were clumsy, and he had never practiced martial arts at all.As long as he has a steel knife in his hand, why should he be afraid of him?As for the monthly profits and bonuses paid in advance, to the Yang family, it is nothing more than a cow. As long as the saltworks can start work as soon as possible, they can earn it back immediately.

But Xiao Xin said in embarrassment: "It's all right to start construction, but none of us have ever run a saltworks..."

Yang Heihu said impatiently: "Why do you bother, my son has already prepared it!"

In order to open the saltworks, Yang Jishan did make full preparations.He had earlier sent people to survey the surrounding terrain of Changshan Village, and later dug out a steward surnamed Li from another saltworks.Li Guanshi is an expert in salt making, and he also came to Changshan Village with Yang Heihu today, and he brought a pattern with him.On the drawing, it is clear at a glance where to build salt fields, where to build warehouses, and where to dig canals to divert water.

"No!" Liu Ziqiu said suddenly, "According to your design, the village has become a salt field. Where will we all live?"

Yang Heihu sneered and said, "My son paid for the way out, and Changshan Village gave people and land. This was proposed by you yourself. It's written in black and white, so you can't go back on your word!"

"Exploring" Liu Ziqiu's depth, Yang Heihu felt that he had suffered a great loss from cooperating with the villagers, and he would not let him bargain.

Xiao Xin said with a calm expression, "Then move, the water pumped out in the village is bitter, so it's good to move to another place."

Liu Ziqiu said in surprise, "Second Uncle, that day Yuan County Magistrate..."

Xiao Xin shook his head and said: "This time, that time. If we moved out according to the wishes of the county lord, even if we have a place to live and don't have a field of our own, I'm afraid life will be more difficult. It's better to stay with our ancestors for generations. In this place, you can still fish for a living. It’s different now, you can get dividends from the saltworks every month, and it’s not the same where you live.”

Liu Ziqiu was deeply impressed, and nodded secretly, this old man is not simple!

Xiao Xin has a lot of prestige in Changshan Village. At the beginning, he asked the villagers to listen to "Daniu", and the villagers listened to "Daniu". Now he said that it is possible to relocate, and the villagers naturally have no objection.But the relocation of the whole village is not a trivial matter, at least there must be a large area, and this cannot do without Yuan Tiangang's help.

This was the first time Liu Ziqiu had seen the city of the Sui Dynasty.The height of the city is more than two meters, and the walls are covered with weeds. An arched city gate is wide open, and there are no guards at the gate. Only people in twos and threes come in and out.The houses in the city are built of adobe or brick and stone. Most of them are low and there are few tall courtyards.The streets paved with bluestone are narrow and winding, with potholes and unevenness.There are occasionally a few small stalls and shops on both sides of the street, which is not considered prosperous.This is the salt official of the richest county in Yuhang, which is quite different from Liu Ziqiu's imagination.

The county government office is inside the east gate. There is no big drum at the door, and there is no servant in sight.Liu Ziqiu was hesitating whether to go up and call the door, but he saw a man who looked like a scribe coming out from inside, cupped his hands and said, "Excuse me, is this a strong man from Changshan Village? Ouyang Yu, the head of the salt official, is here to welcome you."

Liu Ziqiu was taken aback, and asked back, "You know me?"

Ouyang Yu shook his head and said: "My lord told me before leaving that a strong man from Changshan Village is coming to visit today and asked me to wait here."

Liu Ziqiu was even more surprised, and asked, "Master Yuan knows that I'm coming?"

Ouyang Yu nodded and said: "My lord not only knows that you are coming, but also knows what you are going to do. My lord has already prepared for you."

Liu Ziqiu was taken aback. Could it be that Yuan Tiangang is really as powerful as in the legend?

Ouyang Yu had already made a gesture and said, "Strong man, please speak inside."

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the county office, Ouyang Yu ordered someone to fetch a land deed. It was a piece of wasteland by the Qiantang River, which could accommodate two or three hundred families to build houses. It was much larger than the original Changshan Village. Much better too.

Liu Ziqiu didn't expect Yuan Tiangang to be so generous, so he quickly stood up and cupped his hands and said, "I don't know when Master Yuan will come back. I want to thank him in person!"

Yuan Tiangang proposed twice to tell Liu Ziqiu a fortune teller, but was rejected by Liu Ziqiu because Liu Ziqiu never believed in such things.But he couldn't help but not believe everything he encountered today.Liu Ziqiu slowly changed his mind, and wanted to ask Yuan Tiangang to see if he still had a chance to return to modern times.

A look of surprise flashed across Ouyang Yu's face, but he soon returned to normal, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is uncertain, and no one knows when he will come back."

Liu Ziqiu was a little disappointed, and said: "When I came down, I saw that there were no guards at the city gate, and the county magistrate is not in the Yamen now, in case something happens..."

Ouyang Yu laughed loudly and said, "There's no such thing as a contingency! As long as your lord counts, all monsters and monsters will hide in the distance!"

Liu Ziqiu suddenly remembered that his origin was unknown, and whether Yuan Tiangang would see through his identity and treat him as a heretic or a monster. He immediately became uneasy, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Since your lord is not here, I will come to visit you next day, so I will leave!"

Ouyang Yu didn't hold back either, and returned the salute: "I'm sorry to send you away!"

As soon as Liu Ziqiu left, Yuan Tiangang couldn't wait to turn out from the back office and asked, "He left?"

Ouyang Yu said with a smile: "Your Excellency really has a clever plan, he offered to see Your Excellency just now."

Yuan Tiangang said angrily: "Oh, why didn't you say it earlier! If you miss this opportunity, you don't know when it will be!"
