Horse on the World

Chapter 20
The gunman keeps his word, one more chapter is added today, four chapters!

This year's winter came very early. Just after entering December, the frost began. It was about half a month earlier than in previous years. It's like getting into the bone marrow, and it's rare to see the sun all day long. Shang Haibo once told Li Qing melancholy that before the middle of the month, the first snow in the ten years of the apocalypse will fall.

"Sir, do you know the science of climate yin and yang?" Li Qing asked tentatively.

The corners of Shang Haibo's mouth curled up, and he said with a smile: "I have read a lot of schools of thought, and I have dabbled in many things, but most of them are not good enough."

Li Qing looked meaningfully at this middle-aged scholar who seemed to be very laid-back, "Sir, you are a great talent, why can't you be proud of yourself in Shouning Hou Mansion?"

Shang Haibo laughed: "What is a great talent? A certain person doesn't practice discipline, and speaks very harshly, which often makes people feel uncomfortable. Shou Ninghou is considered generous, and he can still allow him to eat a bowl of idle food. If In other places, I have been driven away long ago. This time I came to vote for the general, and there is really no place to eat. I don’t know my hometown, I can’t carry my shoulders, and I can’t bear it if I want to be an enlightenment teacher The second is that others are also afraid that I will mislead the younger generation, so I am really a useless scholar!"

Li Qing laughed loudly and said, "Mr. is very interesting. I thought I was someone special, so I had Mr. to vote for me. It turned out that I was just making a living."

The corners of Shang Haibo's mouth pulled even deeper, "At first I just wanted to have a good meal, but after thinking about it for a long time, I had to think of another way. Now it seems that I was wrong. Although the general's bowl of rice is not very delicious , but it is very tasty, and some of them taste a little bit better after eating.”

Li Qing glanced at Shang Haibo thoughtfully: "Sir, what do you think of Mr. Lu?" Shang Haibo was asked to evaluate Lu Yiming, but Li Qing wanted to see his heart, and on the other hand, he also wanted to know Lu Yiming from the side. Yiming's talent, the two came together all the way, at first glance, Lu Yiming was more valuable in the Shouning Hou Mansion, but after getting along with each other for a long time, Li Qing found that Shang Haibo had learned more than Lu Yiming.

"Brother Lu!" Shang Haibo pursed his lips and smiled, "He has talent, but his eyesight is shallow, and he can't see through some things, but as far as I know, Brother Lu is a good hand in internal affairs."

"What about yourself, sir, in what areas do you think you are the strongest?" Li Qing asked forcefully.

Shang Haibo glanced at the aggressive Li Qing, and his expression became serious, "I can't compare with Brother Lu in detail, but when it comes to mastering the overall situation and the arrangement of grand strategies, I dare not belittle myself." .”

This review of the evaluation of the two of them is also in line with Li Qing's thoughts, "Why doesn't the scholar take Wu Gou and charge Guanshan Fifty States? Do you intend to keep eating this bowl of rice with me?"

There was a flash of light in Shang Haibo's eyes, and then he hid it deeply, "I want what I want, I dare not ask you."

The two looked at each other and smiled, this turn of the conversation confirmed the positions of Shang Haibo and Lu Yiming in the Ever-Victorious Camp, Shang was outside and Lu was inside.

"Is the Li family sustainable?" Li Qing asked.

"You can rely on it for a short time, but you can't hold it for a long time." Shang Haibo said.

"Can Da Chu hold it?"

"The aristocratic family is in power, the imperial power is declining, and the wind and rain are blowing. Once something happens, it will collapse."

Li Qing was silent for a moment, "What should I do?"

Shang Haibo rolled his eyelids, "It's too early for the general to say these things?"

Li Qing snorted coldly, "What should I say now?"

"The first thing to do now is to stand firm. Whether you can stand firm is the first step for the general. Otherwise, nothing will happen, and the general can only return to the Li family to be a helper. If you stand firm, you can plan for Dingzhou. With Dingzhou, you can look at the world. "

"Is there a plan for Dingzhou?" Li Qing insisted.

"If the general passes this test, Dingzhou Xiaoyuanshan and Fang Wenshan are nothing to worry about. Within three to five years, Dingzhou will be at your fingertips." Shang Haibo's face remained unchanged, as if he was grabbing Dingzhou with a flip of his palm.

"Okay, this hurdle will be over, Mr. Shang, but you should think about how we can get Dingzhou, but I think it will only take three years at most, otherwise it will be too late." Li Qing squinted at Shang Haibo. "I'll go to the shanty town for a while."

Before Shang Haibo could answer, he greeted Tang Hu and Yang Yidao who were waiting not far away, and strode away. Seeing Li Qing's leaving figure, Shang Haibo's slender eyes narrowed slightly, "It really isn't Willing to send someone under the fence, Li Shi took it for granted that he would work for Li Shi, but he was wrong, but what does it matter to me, isn't it better, I have seen enough of the faces of those old aristocratic families, but why? It must be within three years, does he have the confidence to gain enough strength in three years?" Puzzled, he turned around and walked back, but he was also happy in his heart, today's habitual talk is a confirmation of himself In the position of the Chief Counselor in the Changsheng Camp, if he wants to make a difference, of course he must do his best to plan for Li Qing. Shang Haibo is well aware of his character flaws. It is difficult for a person like himself to be talented even if he is talented. For the tolerance of those old aristocratic families, only Li Qing, who is newly discovered, urgently needs talents, but has a broad mind, can use them. After more than ten years, he finally found a place that can stretch his ambitions, so naturally he should cherish it. , although this starting point is a bit too low, but looking at Li Qing, although he is currently trapped in the shallows, in time, he will surely soar into the sky, and then it will be the time for him to stretch his ambitions.

Li Qing didn't know what Shang Haibo was thinking, but he was very happy in his heart. Shang Haibo was a talent, and he was the kind of talent he wanted most. He not only knew the general situation of the country well, but also There is a gully in his chest. As long as such a person is given a platform, he will stop making a name for himself and become a blockbuster. It is really strange why such a person is not reused in the Li family. Is it difficult for the veteran family to have such a rich talent background?Li Qing shook his head noncommittal, even if it was Lu Yiming, if what Shang Haibo said, he needed it very much, but Lu Yiming is very different from Shang Haibo, he seems to be very loyal to Li now, How can I think of a way to completely pull him over?As for the annexation of Dingzhou in three years after overcoming this difficulty, Li Qing is confident. There are still many things in my mind that no outstanding talent in your era can think of. What is the difficulty of the small Dingzhou, but the current level makes Li Qing feel extremely difficult.

Before he knew it, he had already arrived in the shantytowns. Li Qing's originally happy mood faded away as he went deeper into the shantytowns, and became heavier than ever.This question is always on my mind, food, food!
The refugees in the shanty town discovered Li Qing's arrival. Countless people ran out of the low shacks, knelt down on the ground, and looked up at the young general who had rescued them from the brink of starvation.

"The general waits for all generations!"

"Long live the general!"

The blessings made Li Qing feel a little warmer. Now these people are his subjects, and they must be allowed to survive, not only to survive, but also to live a good life.Li Qing looked at the black heads and thought to himself.

These people are their first pot of gold in this era, and they will surely support themselves to go higher and further.
