"Second baby!"

Some anxiously shouted among the crowd, as if he was worried about his child's safety. At this moment, the old carpenter's face was full of heavy melancholy, and at the same time, a series of cold sweats flowed from his face from time to time.And as if knowing the other party's anxiety, soon after the people around knew what had happened, they also began to spontaneously search for the whereabouts of the seven or eight-year-old boy, that is, the second baby of Carpenter Tan's family. .

Fortunately, in the barracks at this time, most of the soldiers have already taken their positions, and at the same time, they are protected around these craftsman families like iron barrels.Therefore, it didn't take too long. Carpenter Tan soon found the body of his youngest son not far away near a strong man who was wearing leather armor with ring lock armor, was eight feet tall and had a waist circumference of nearly eight feet. figure.

At this moment, in front of the soldier, Erwa was curiously looking at the petite and cute longbow wrapped under the tall body of the soldier, and seemed to want to touch it, but before he could reach out, the old carpenter It was a burst of astonishing speed that far exceeded his current age level, and he picked up his child from the ground in one go.

"sorry Sorry!"

"My child is still young and ignorant, so I don't intend to disturb the officers. I hope you can forgive me..."

There was a trace of cold sweat flowing from the forehead, and Carpenter Tan's heart was beating uncontrollably at this moment. I don't know if it was out of fear of the strong soldier in front of him, or simply because of the long-term impact of his previous sprint.

But in front of him, the soldier was not angry, just squinted his eyes slightly, stared at the old man in front of him, and did not respond aloud.

Then, as if thinking of something, the archer probably wanted to show his kindness in front of all the competitors, so he grinned in the direction of the child and made a smile that he thought was quite kind.

It's just that on his big face full of flesh, such a smile inevitably looks a little scary.

Looking at the child's expression, it changed from curiosity to a little fear in an instant. Before the archer had time to react, the people around couldn't hold back their expressions in an instant. They were amused by the archer's behavior and burst into laughter. It's like seeing a rather interesting mime.

And after that, just when the archer scratched his head in embarrassment, and felt that he couldn't get off the stage, a scholar wearing a long robe and a turban, who looked like a scholar, appeared beside him in time Beside, while comforting Carpenter Tan, he also paved a step for him, and rescued the archer from the somewhat embarrassing atmosphere before.

……

"This old man, it doesn't have to be like this."

"These soldiers have all undergone strict discipline training, so naturally they won't blame you and others for trivial matters."

He smiled and explained to the old man, and saw that the scholar had a long sword on his waist and a smile on his face. It was Mi Fang, the second son of the Mi family who had lived in this barracks for more than half a month.

I don't know if it's because Mi Fang's image is a little more gentle than that of the archer, but soon, under his comfort, the old carpenter bid farewell to the two of them with gratitude, and then returned to the previous crowd.

Some helplessly patted the shoulder of the archer behind him, and Mi Fang didn't know why soldiers like the other party, who were obviously very honest and honest, always seemed so stupid when interacting with the people that he couldn't believe it.

But now, after telling the archer a few words, he hurriedly found Wei Xian, and described to him what happened in the previous crowd.

Different from Pei Yuanshao, who is dedicated to leading the army, or Wei Xian, who is responsible for coordinating the relocation of craftsmen, because Mi Fang can eat very well on both sides, so today he is also a bridge between the army and the citizens to prevent the two from happening. Any friction or unhappiness.

And after living in this barracks for so long, Mi Fang, who had gradually grasped the temperament of those soldiers, was naturally busy and a little restless.

……

In fact, Mi Fang was still in a bad mood when she first entered the barracks.It's not because she, as the eldest son of the Mi family, has to be taken hostage by Zhang Yan, Mi Fang is just dissatisfied with the series of decisions made by her elder brother Mi Zhu from the bottom of her heart, and at the same time, there is a trace of harmony with Mi Zhu in her heart. An angry mind.

And under the influence of this kind of negative emotion, Mi Fang's complexion at that time was naturally not very good, she often drank and quarreled with others in the military camp, not to mention, for those ordinary soldiers, Mi Fang also felt a little disdainful from the bottom of her heart .

It was just beyond Mi Fang's expectation, after a few days of drinking and making troubles all day long, a little-known young general who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old took the initiative to find him, and he threatened to make an appointment with him. Fighting, but also talking about the son of aristocratic family is nothing more than that.

Seeing the other party provoking her like this, Mi Fang, who was quite confident in the martial arts she had learned since childhood, naturally made an appointment with the other party, and made an appointment to compete on the school field at [-]:[-] pm that night.

The result of the fight is obvious. Although Mi Fang also practiced martial arts since childhood, scholars are scholars. In this world, there are only a few people who can be both civil and martial arts, and most people spend their entire lives only able to master the same thing.

On that somewhat dark night, Liao Hua used his own hands to make Mi Fang realize that it might be more appropriate for him to be a literati rather than martial arts.

The bruised and swollen face was carried back to the tent by some familiar soldiers. Mi Fang didn't feel jealous towards Liao Hua because of this, instead she lay on the hospital bed and kept reflecting on whether there was something inappropriate for her.

And then, after putting away her contemptuous thoughts, Mi Fang suddenly had a feeling of admiration for these ordinary soldiers.

It's not that those soldiers really conquered Mi Fang in terms of literary talent or martial arts. In fact, for most of the ordinary soldiers, not only could they single-handedly defeat Mi Fang who had practiced martial arts since childhood, they even couldn't even defeat Mi Fang with big characters. I can't recognize the two, let alone mention any literary talents.

What made Mi Fang feel refreshed was that after those soldiers tried to get in touch with them, they found that the other party was very suitable for him, and at the same time, they were very happy to play with him.

You know, what Mi Fang hates the most in her life is being like her elder brother Mi Zhu, who always twists and turns in everything, and at the same time does not reveal her true thoughts in front of everyone, disguises her hypocrisy, and is beautiful. Its name is called "politeness".

On the other hand, what Mi Fang likes the most is the kind of straightforwardness that never hides his sincerity, so that he himself is unremittingly moving forward on that road.

Chapter 14 Let's go

After getting in touch with those soldiers, Mi Fang soon found out that these soldiers were indeed very straightforward. At the same time, from top to bottom, whether it was Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang and others who were the commanders-in-chief, or the bottom-level soldiers, As long as it is what they think, it will definitely be directly expressed on their external image.

Perhaps for those with a more mature personality, it is inevitable to be slightly offended by the other party occasionally when getting along with such a person.But for some reason, Mi Fang still likes to deal with such people, even if the two often fight because of this, he still feels a little bit tired of it.

It's just a pity for Mi Fang that the education level of these soldiers is really poor, and most of the time, they can't understand the various things they said.

However, after implicitly expressing her willingness to teach the other party how to read and write, Mi Fang suddenly found that not only her image among the low-level soldiers became brighter and greater, but even those centurions and even middle-level officers at the level of a thousand-man superintendent , they all respected him faintly.

In recent days, along with the gradual improvement of her status, Mi Fang's image in the military camp under Zhang Yan has successfully changed from "son of aristocratic family" to "Mr. Mi", and recently she has faintly developed into "Mr. Mi" the trend of.

Whether it was Yang Feng, Pei Yuanshao and others, or Zhang Yan, who was the immediate boss of the soldiers, they were obviously happy with the other party, and even Zhang Yan secretly had some actions that fueled the flames.

After all, it is easy to find a literati who is willing to take refuge in Zhang Yan, but only Mi Fang is willing to take the initiative to pass on knowledge to ordinary people regardless of class.

If he really wants to popularize basic education in the future, Mi Fang will be an indispensable piece of the puzzle for Zhang Yan in Lujiang in the future.

Looking up at the sun that has become a bit vicious, Pei Yuanshao just glanced at the sundial not far away, and found that the time has come to the intersection point of Maoshi and Chenshi, which is around seven o'clock in the morning in later generations. It was the departure time that Zhang Yan had set in advance.

And then, as if he was a little anxious about why Zhang Yan, the rightful lord, hadn't appeared yet, Pei Yuanshao began to look over the Luoyang city gate frequently, looking in the direction of the main road in the city.

Feeling a little hesitation silently in his heart, Pei Yuanshao didn't know for a while whether he should go to the city to urge the other party, or just set off first according to the time set by the other party.

At the same time, in a small courtyard in Luoyang City, Zhang Yan was wearing his favorite costume with peacock tail feathers at the moment, packing up his things in a hurry, and hadn't set off from home yet.

……

"Master! The time has come, let's go quickly."

Standing near the carriage at the door, the sky was completely bright at this time, Ye'er just looked up at the sky, and then urged Zhang Yan in the room again.

At this moment, she is wearing a cool summer dress and guarding the door, but she looks quite youthful and beautiful, just like those girls from rich families, she can't see the temperament of a maid at all.

Beside her, the four-horse carriage has been repainted into a somewhat low-key black, white and gray three-color appearance. It just stops at Zhang Yan's door under the control of the groom, waiting for Zhang Yan. Yan, the rightful lord, gave an order and headed out of the city.

And after hearing Ye'er's somewhat familiar voice, it didn't take long before a man's voice came out from the somewhat noisy room.

"Hurry up, hurry up, it will be ready soon, Ye'er, get in the car first!"

Touching the stinky sweat on his forehead, Zhang Yan stood like this in his home at this moment, directing the servants to carefully lift the huge wooden boxes out of the room one by one. A lot of carving ornaments.

Taking a glance around the room with his eyes, and seeing that most of the belongings had been moved out, Zhang Yan couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, so he packed up some of his belongings.

Beside him, several domestic servants who were arranged for him by Zhang Rang and who knew the basics were all ready, waiting for Zhang Yan's order.

Afterwards, after packing a few volumes of books that he hadn't finished reading and handing them over to the servants, Zhang Yan also straightened his back, feeling that his clothes were soaked in sweat and stuck to his body.

Exhaling a turbid breath, Zhang Yan turned around and looked at the somewhat empty room. For a while, he couldn't recall whether he had missed anything.He packed up his things today and was about to move, only to realize that although his room was much smaller than that of Cao Cao and Er Yuan, who were at the same level, the things that needed to be moved were ridiculously large.

Not to mention the furniture ornaments, gold and silver treasures and other items that Emperor Lingdi Liu Hong rewarded him, they were just the money that Zhang Rang sent to him on weekdays, and a series of his own industries in Luoyang City. To create receivables is to fill up an entire room.

If Zhang Yan's family has hundreds or thousands of servants like those dudes, then that's all.After all, no matter how many things there are, the number of servants cannot be restrained. Each person has a box, and all the gold and silver can be transported out in a short while.

But this is a coincidence, Zhang Yan is not the kind of person who likes to show off, so in this small courtyard, apart from maintaining some cleaning work on weekdays, there are almost no domestic servants to support. The entire Zhang family is full of money and can only be worth dozens of people.

In addition, among these people, it is inevitable that there are some characters who are old and weak, or handmaids and old slaves who fall in the wind...

It can be said that at this time, if Qiao Ying and others hadn't stopped him, Zhang Yan would have even rolled up his sleeves and taken the servants to carry out the things in the house one by one.

Seeing boxes of heavy copper coins being carried out of his home, even Zhang Yan, who has experienced many storms and waves, could not help but feel his brows twitching at this moment.

It's not that the value of these boxes of copper coins is so precious, it's just that the accumulation of a large number of low-value copper coins will inevitably cause great obstacles to his travel.

Of course, for his own convenience, Zhang Yan also thought about exchanging those copper coins in equal proportions, or even taking the initiative to lose some, for precious things such as gold, which are relatively convenient to carry.

However, the amount of gold circulating in the market is only so much. After discovering that the price of gold was also fluctuated by himself, he was worried that an economic crisis would be triggered at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, so he finally gritted his teeth and decided to sell these copper coins. Move it into your new home.

Chapter 15 Zhen Ji Why are you here

Although he secretly suffered a small loss this time, he stared at the boxes of copper coins thoughtfully. Soon, in Zhang Yan's mind, these copper coins turned into bronze and brass of equal weight. At the same time, it was used by him in a series of industries that required a lot of metal consumption, such as casting guns.

And he secretly made up his mind that after what happened today, Zhang Yan also planned to go to Japan as soon as possible when he was able to find a way to mine and transport Japan's huge amount of silver mines back.

At that time, after having a large amount of silver as a buffer between gold and copper coins, people's lives will gradually become more convenient.

And if, by virtue of this matter, he could get the right to mint coins in the Lujiang area under his command, or even the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, from the hands of the emperor of the Han Dynasty, it would obviously be of great convenience to Zhang Yan's future development.

Urging the servants under him to put boxes of belongings on the vehicles outside the courtyard, Zhang Yan felt a little lucky at the moment. Although the number of his servants was really rare, with the help of money ability, he The number of all kinds of ox carts, horse-drawn carts and even carts under him can be said to be absolutely sufficient, so in theory, there is no embarrassing situation that he cannot take away all the family property at once.

Accompanied by the one after another carriages driving out of the city, after seeing how many vehicles were gone, the entire Zhang family was finally moved clean.

After arranging some matters at hand, Zhang Yan first ordered the remaining workers of the industries under his command to buy the small courtyard, and at the same time, gradually transported some not-too-precious things such as grain and cloth to the Lujiang area.

As for those gold, silver, copper coins, and valuables such as silk and leather, they were all taken away by Zhang Yan this time under the protection of [-] soldiers.

Stretching for a while, Zhang Yan staggered out of the door like this, and suddenly felt that under the blowing of the morning wind, a faint coolness spread from all parts of his previously sweaty body.

After shivering with some satisfaction, he came to Ye'er's side with Shi Shiran, touched the other's head lightly, and stepped on the shaft to board the carriage that belonged to him.

Due to Zhang Yan's status and some restrictions on feudal etiquette, neither Ye'er nor Qiao Jin can ride in the same carriage with Zhang Yan when traveling, because the treatment of four horses driving side by side is theoretically unacceptable. The courtesy that only the top princes and their wives can receive.

As for the two maids, no matter how good their relationship with the master's family is, they cannot violate the etiquette and travel with Zhang Yan in the same carriage.

Of course, this kind of conservative and even rigid rules gradually faded from the stage of history after the chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, especially after the chaos of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

But now, before experiencing those chaotic baptisms, as long as he still wants to gain the recognition and convenience of some scholars through his status as a marquis, Zhang Yan has to grit his teeth and abide by this feudal etiquette no matter what.

From the point of view of conscience, Zhang Yan naturally wants to enjoy the various services of his lovely maid along the way, and at the same time, he also likes the feeling that he is gradually becoming a useless person under the care of the other party.

But before he really had a certain right to speak at the end of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Yan could only bury such a thing deep in his heart.

Watching Ye'er board a one-horse and two-wheeled carriage behind him, Zhang Yan just lowered his head and opened the door curtain of his own carriage, and got into the carriage under the gaze of everyone.

And then, after seeing two figures, one big and one small inside the car, Zhang Yan felt a little dazed, as if he didn't understand the situation.

……

"Eh... Zhenji, why are you here?"

Looking at the girl in the carriage who stuck her tongue out at him, Zhang Yan first asked in astonishment, then turned around abruptly and opened the curtain, and probed out to confirm the situation outside the carriage.

And after seeing the four white horses in front of the car driving side by side, Zhang Yan couldn't help but smiled awkwardly at the groom who suddenly turned his head and looked at him innocently, and told him that everything had been arranged, and now he could set off. Head out of town.

Withdrawing his body back into the carriage, and immediately confirming that he did not get on the wrong train, Zhang Yan didn't have the kind of feeling just now that he found a cute girl with a big dick in the men's toilet. The embarrassing psychology of going in the wrong direction.

He tidied up his clothes comfortably, and looked at the young girl who was only twelve or thirteen years old sitting next to Qiao Ying in front of him. Zhang Yan sat opposite the two of them, slowly turning Erlang's legs up. up.

"Tsk tsk, tell me, how did you slip up?"

Feeling the carriage under him gradually moving towards the distance, the slight vibration gave Zhang Yan a sense of confusion that he felt when he was traveling on a green leather train when he was a child.

Now the weather outside the window of the carriage can be said to be sunny and sunny, no different from the scene there, but this time when going out, Zhang Yan is no longer going out for fun, but going to the place he has always been fascinated by. Lujiang, a famous county in the east of the Yangtze River, took office for a long time.

Looking at Cai Gu, the second daughter of the Cai family, in front of him with teasing eyes, Zhang Yan didn't notice when this girl sneaked into his carriage while he was not paying attention.

It's just that if no outsiders found out, then Zhang Yan wouldn't mind letting this girl who had known him for almost half a year, and it can be said that they are very familiar with each other, give a free ride.
