Water Margin: I, Wang Lun, will have many children and many blessings in Liangshan.

After climbing over the ridge, we saw an official road winding forward.

And unlike ordinary official roads, the official roads here are obviously in a state of regular maintenance, and there are no obvious uneven vehicle indentations.

Due to long-term use and lack of maintenance, many official roads have high and low sections in the road. This is caused by heavy vehicles running over them and then raining and then driving.

After a long time, not to mention the bumps, many places were unable to be notified.

As the saying goes, people in the south sail boats and people in the north ride horses. In fact, the main means of transportation in the north is also boats. As long as there are rivers, merchants still try to use boats for transportation. Tokyo City is a standard northern city, but there are a large number of people parked on the river outside the city. Most of the ships were royal water transport vessels, and the smaller half were merchants' private ships, transporting all kinds of goods.

For a city with more than one million people, the cargo throughput is certainly astonishing.

In addition to ships, there are vehicles, usually two-wheeled carriages. Those who can use horse-drawn carriages or ox-carts are already powerful businessmen or officials. Most of the private transportation is either carried on the shoulders, such as salesmen who travel around. Even so, there are also a large number of wheelbarrows. Whether it is pushing grain or goods, a strong man can push a few hundred kilograms a day for about a hundred miles.

In this era, the hardships and hardships in various environments are unimaginable to future generations.

Even the Song Dynasty, which was famous for its wealth, was the same.

The road in front of me was as smooth as a mirror, with no uneven marks at all.

Drainage ditches have also been dug on the roadside to prevent long-term water accumulation and damage to the road surface during rain.

Trees are also planted next to the ditch, not only for landscape, but also to stabilize the water and soil.

These are certain rules for road maintenance and protection that were formed hundreds of years later. They are considered ahead of their time in this era.

At least at the level of rammed earth roads, it is definitely ahead of its time.

And this kind of thing does not mean that the further back you go, the more advanced you are. On the contrary, you are still retreating.

For example, the famous Qin Zhidao has not been completely destroyed in two thousand years, and there are still obvious traces of the road surface in many places.

The roads of the Song Dynasty and those of the Ming and Qing Dynasties were obviously inferior to those of the Qin and Han Dynasties.

Including the weapons and armor of the Song Dynasty, except for a few high-quality products, such as the divine arm bow and infantry armor, they are not bad, but overall, the armor level is far less than the Tang Thirteen Armors, and the weapons are even worse.

Tang straight sword, Tang horizontal sword, Tang Mo sword... they were all weapons that crushed the Song people.

Tempering, casting, steelmaking, various technologies have not been carried forward, but have disappeared in the long river of history due to wars and changes.

……

Yang Zhi certainly would not express any emotion because 327 took a completely different path.

In fact, every time Wang Lun drives on these roads, he will feel deeply.

Because of your own appearance, something completely different will appear.

This is a good thing and something to be proud of.

Yang Zhi only observed that there was a large building under the shade of trees on one side of the official road.

It should be the kind with a garrison.

Several large courtyards are connected together. The largest one has a school yard, stables, and a large military barracks area.

You can definitely smell horse manure in the air.

It seems that there are not only cavalry garrisoned, but also a large number of people, maybe one hundred cavalry, or more.

This is not surprising either.

Yang Zhi heard about it in Daming Mansion.

Liangshan was sweeping through various states, and a large number of official and gentry families were swept away, with different results obtained according to different crimes.

Only a good family, one that has truly accumulated its wealth, will pay the land price according to the price, and will not pay a penny less.

This is also called Liangshan, which triggered two very different evaluations.

Among the officials and gentry, Wang Lun of Liangshan was the most terrifying demon. He would not only divide the land but also publicize the truth about the misdeeds of the officials and gentry landowners on a large scale.

Then, with countless people watching, the officials and gentry landowners who had committed serious crimes were hanged in public.

Now the threat of Liangshan is rising rapidly in the court. Even though Liangshan has not occupied any state city, there are already obvious voices within the court, hoping that the court can send a large army to quickly exterminate the Liangshan bandits!

Fang La, Tian Hu, Wang Qing, Wang Lun!

The four major bandits have been finalized. I wonder if Zhao Ji wrote these four names on the screen inside his palace?

Yang Zhi didn't care about these rumors.

He has neither wealth nor land or mansion.

It's just that he comes from a poor military officer's family background, and his accumulated wealth is quite limited.

He was even so depressed that he wanted to sell his ancestral sword.

No matter how much liquidation is made, it cannot be blamed on him.

And in the military and local areas, I saw too many officers who were short-serving, corrupt civil servants, and subordinate staff who were causing trouble... In fact, Yang Zhi felt in his heart that the things the Lord of Liang Shanshuibo did were really exciting!

It’s just that he won’t tell anyone these thoughts.

……

Everyone carried their burdens under the heat wave and soon arrived under the shade of the trees.

You can't see it from far away, but when you get closer, you can see several convoys queuing up to inspect the goods and pay the deed tax.

Under the shade of the trees, there are also fruit sellers, mostly apples, dates, watermelons and other common fruits in this season.

There are no out-of-season vegetables or fruits in this era, you can only eat what is in season.

In addition to the fruit seller, there is also a picker selling sweet wine.

This wine is put on ice before being picked out, so it tastes sweet, refreshing and refreshing.

In this era, there was ice in the summer. In the winter, not only did the wealthy dig ice on the river, but there were also ice shops that sold ice. They had ice cellars more than ten meters deep, and they wrapped the large ice cubes they dug out. Thick straw mats are placed underground, and ice is sold in the summer.

This is a good business.

A group of soldiers immediately became anxious when they saw the ice wine picker.

But according to previous experience, Yang Zhi should not allow it. Their eyes wandered and looked at Yang Zhi and Lao Duguan.

When Yang Zhi saw this, he smiled and cursed:"This is not a dangerous place, why can't I ask you to drink? Just go and buy it yourself!"

When he got here, Yang Zhi also relaxed, put down his knife, and lay half under the tree. Holding a hat and fanning yourself in the cool air, you will feel relaxed and happy.

No matter what, it seems that this mission can be completed safely.

The sergeants bought a barrel of wine and first gave a few bowls to Laodu Guan. Then someone gave another bowl to Yang Zhi. Yang Zhi was not polite, took it and drank it.

The wine brewed in the countryside is not bad at all, with moderate sweetness, cool and refreshing.

Nothing changes.

It is also impossible to have Mongolian sweat medicine.

Next to it is Liangshan's tax card and garrison. No one would be crazy enough to try to rob here.

The scattered bandits and bandits in the entire land of several states have been eliminated. The people in the green forest were either recruited by Liangshan, or served hard labor in Liangshan, or they saw the opportunity early and ran away to other states.

"Yang Tiha, we are here."

After a quarter of an hour, all the sweat on Yang Zhi's body had dried up, and it was finally their turn.

"Where do you come from?"

"Daming Mansion"

"Where to go?"

"Tokyo"

"Total value of goods?"

"One hundred thousand coins"

"Oh, by the way, these are non-business categories."

Yang Zhi was very calm and answered whatever was asked.

He didn't intend to hide the total value of the goods, which caused the old capital officer to look dissatisfied.

But Yang Zhi knew that he couldn't hide it, and the relevant officials would come over soon to open the package and inspect it.

If you want to To avoid this kind of inspection, you have to take the risk of walking from the non-Liangshan controlled area. Yang Zhi feels that it is more dangerous there. A large number of people in the green forest were expelled by Liangshan, and there are dangers everywhere.

Although you will face taxation if you go here, it is not a business type It's not expensive, but only costs hundreds of dollars.

Liangshan's tax collection has become more reasonable.

Previously, bulk goods passing through were taxed.

Later, I discovered that some goods were not business-related. They might be gifts, transshipments, or bulk goods. People's livelihood products and the like.

These will not be taxed, or will be changed to a lower tax rate.

Yang Zhi has been in the Liangshan area for a long time and is quite familiar with these rules.

"Coming from Daming Mansion? Going to Tokyo to send birthday greetings?"

A blue-robed official headed by him came over and looked Yang Zhi up and down for a while.

Yang Zhi suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Are you Yang Zhi, the green-faced beast?"

As the official asked the question, the official on the side suddenly beat the big drum on the side.

The drum drum sounded.

After a while, the rumble of horse hooves was heard.

There was a barracks dozens of steps away, almost. At the same time as the drums sounded, dozens of armored cavalry suddenly rode out of the camp gate and ran towards the tax card.

Yang Zhi and others were almost caught off guard and were surrounded by a forest-like array of (agdi) spears. , then the cavalry lowered or leveled their spears, and dozens of spears approached Yang Zhi and others, making it almost difficult for them to turn around

"What does this mean? Yang

Zhi was shocked and said angrily:"Liangshan doesn't claim to be fair and just, as long as it collects taxes and fees, it will protect the safety of passing merchants?""

There was a noise here, and many passing businessmen came to watch the excitement.

After hearing Yang Zhi's words, many people also looked surprised.

The blue-robed official said loudly:"Liangshan's purpose has not changed! The boss can even divide millions of acres at his own initiative. Does he care about your small goods? The key is that your birth date is the people's anointing collected by Liang Taishu who stayed behind in Daming Mansion, and the place it was sent to is Taishi Cai's Mansion in Tokyo City! Cai Jing is the leader of the traitors announced by Liangshan, and will be eliminated in the future. Liang Zhongshu is also on the list. The belongings of the two traitors will be confiscated according to the Liangshan law! The green-faced beast Yang Zhi transported items for a traitor and was punished by serving in the army to atone for his sins! If you refuse to accept punishment, you will be killed on the spot!" (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Wow!"

Dozens of spears pressed down together, further reducing the space for Yang Zhi and others to move.

At the same time, more cavalry poured out from the camp. It seemed that they were wearing armor in the camp just now.

This is not surprising. , on such a hot day, there are dozens of cavalry on horseback and armor dispatched at any time, indicating that they are on guard duty. The rest are also wearing armor and holding troops in a short period of time, and are dispatched quickly.

The elite Liangshan cavalry completely impressed Yang Zhi The impression of being here last year.

The Liangshan cavalry last year were also elite, especially the military discipline and execution of military orders, which left a very deep memory for Yang Zhi.

But... these cavalry now are cold, aloof, calm and full of enthusiasm. The self-confidence of elite warriors.

This kind of state of long-term military service and extremely rich battlefield experience cannot be acted out.

Even if there are more cavalry, a bloody and murderous atmosphere permeates the air, shocking the dissatisfied old people such as Guan Guan and others. People didn't dare to say anything at all.

What's going on?

Yang Zhi was confused and shocked.

"Yang Zhi, are you willing to join our Liangshan Army?"

Yang Zhi looked around.

On one side was a spear like a forest, and on the other was an old capital official with hatred in his eyes.

It is conceivable that even if Liangshan didn't want him, he wouldn't be able to go back.

This birthday outline A throw away... coupled with the anger of the old governor. Both

Liang Zhongshu and Mrs. Cai hated Yang Zhi to the core.[]

When I go back this time, let alone my job or my future, my life will definitely not be saved.

"Yang is willing to play for Liangshan"

"Very good."

The blue-robed officials have long received a secret order to keep Yang Zhi.

It is a small matter to confiscate the birth date in the boss's letter.

One hundred thousand guan...

For Liangshan, who is about to earn tens of millions of guan and tens of millions of shi of food per year. For me, truth is nothing anymore.

"Come, take Brother Yang to the Shijie Village Camp to report and participate in the new army training."

"OK, my lord."

The cavalry group put away their spears.

Several cavalrymen brought the horses, put Yang Zhi's personal parcel on the horse, and then led Yang Zhi to Shijie Village.

The distance was not too far.

Yang Zhi looked back with a complicated mood. Look.

There are various rare items in the bags on the ground, worth one hundred thousand yuan.

The frustrated Xiangjun and the old man with his face twisted in anger were let go and left Yunzhou.

They were just servants and ordinary Xiangjun, Liangshan Bian will not embarrass them.

Thinking about it, their anger is natural.

They worked hard for thousands of miles, but ended up picking the goods to others...

Yang Zhi still stayed.

They had to go back to face the anger of Mrs. Cai and Liang Zhongshu...

Yang Zhi suddenly I couldn't help laughing.

There were tears in my laughter.

The situation in front of me was really absurd, just like my past.

I hope that after joining Liangshan, I can really change everything in the past?

Yang Zhi's eyes gradually showed determination.!

……

"Hei San, Mr. Song, is this all you will give this month?"

In the exquisitely decorated attic, Yan Poxi's anger completely erupted when she saw only two coins on the table.

This was a young woman with a voluptuous figure, exquisite facial features, and a white complexion. She exuded the unique charm of a woman in her prime. And attractiveness.

For an ordinary man, I am afraid that he would be obsessed with this young woman.

Song Jiang was also obsessed with it earlier, otherwise he would not take her into the room, and even built a house specially for Yan Xipo to live in.

But these days For months, everything went wrong for Song Jiang, and he suffered frequent heavy blows. He was in serious physical condition.

He was no longer heroic...

He could only use the excuse that he was busy or practicing martial arts, in short, he was exempt from fighting.

He couldn't be satisfied in bed. Before, It’s okay to give more money. As long as you give him about ten guan of money every month, and buy some silver jewelry, silk, jade bracelets and the like from time to time, Yan Poxi is extremely satisfied and is quite gentle and respectful to Song Jiang.

But these few months...

Song Jiang's problems were not only with his body, but also with his money bag.

Almost all his sources of income were cut off.

Because the states could not pay taxes, the court simply stopped official salaries completely.

This was extremely miserable.

It was not just extra money, oil and water. No more.

Even the basic salary has been stopped.

Now most of the officials have resigned or gone directly to work for Liangshan.

The salary in Liangshan is higher, but they are not allowed to make extra money.

It is impossible for Song Jiang to work for Liangshan. Efficiency...

But the land in Songjiazhuang was taken away. Although there was a lot of money, they didn't dare to touch it for a while. The Song family planned to leave and purchase the manor land elsewhere.

Song Jiang's money bag was completely deflated.

The two pieces on the table in front of him were also Forced together……

"Useless black guy……"

"The bed is useless and you can’t get the money back, so what do I want from you?"

"The short guy named Wu Da a while ago has opened several restaurants, and even a three-inch boy is more useful than you!"

The insults and humiliations directly broke through Song Jiang's defense line.

"Bitch, I'll kill you!"

""Pfft".

The dagger in Song Jiang's sleeve stabbed Yan Poxi's neck. The young woman's eyes first showed anger, then disbelief, and finally confusion.

Blood flowed all over the ground.

Only then did Song Jiang wake up.

Damn it, now It’s really over!.
