Standalone Northern and Southern Dynasties

Chapter 62 Life and Occupation Followers (Update )
Su Ze opened the system, silently pinched the amulet that his sister Su Yuyao had asked for, and opened the system's store.

One purple, one basket and three green!
Su Ze planned to return the amulet to Su Yuyao and ask her to ask the old monks in Longhua Temple to get back the incense money.

Ever since he put on the amulet, Su Ze has been isolated from the color gold, and has not yet produced a single gold legendary item!
Forget it, let’s see what the purple epic items look like.

[Skilled jeweler]

Grade: Purple;
Effect: Giving away exquisite treasures made by jewelers can improve your favorability;

Comments: "The glazed jade box spews out lotus flowers, and the intricately carved gold ring reflects the bright moon."

Price: 500 Wen Tai and Wu Zhu coins, plus a monthly training fee to cover the loss of a certain amount of gold, silver, jade and other precious stones.

Su Ze was a little disappointed because this purple follower was not a combat follower.

However, craftsmen who can make jewelry are extremely rare these days, and usually only the master craftsmen in charge of the production can make such things.

There were also gold and silversmiths in Jianyang, but they could only make some crude earrings and rings. Moreover, in that era, exquisite jewelry was not in circulation and no one sold these things.

Ordinary people cannot afford it, but the wealthy and powerful families all have their own craftsmen. Moreover, the positive entry of "excellent craftsmanship" evaluated by the system is enough to show the ability of this jeweler.

The most important thing is that in the officialdom of the Northern Wei Dynasty, "giving gifts" is a very important skill.

For example, Erzhu Rong, the Tianzhu General who rose to prominence during the Six Garrisons Rebellion. Erzhu was originally just a chieftain of the Northern Wei Dynasty and a minister looked down upon by the nobles in Luoyang.

These Yanchens were summoned to Luoyang in autumn and released to the frontier in spring. They came to Luoyang to receive Sinicized education. In the eyes of the completely Sinicized Northern Wei high-level officials, the Yanchens were just a group of bumpkins.

However, the Erzhu family was able to stand out among the many Yan ministers and maintain good connections in Luoyang, and was always able to get news from Luoyang in a timely manner, because three generations of the Erzhu family were very good at giving gifts.

Starting from Erzhu Rong’s grandfather, every time the “wild geese” came to Luoyang, the Erzhu family would bring a large number of fine horses and give them as gifts to the dignitaries in Luoyang.

Exquisite jewelry, like fine horses, are luxury items more valuable than gold and silver. A [skilled jeweler] is indeed worthy of purple quality.

When Su Ze saw the next blue follower, his eyes suddenly lit up.

【The lazy papermaker】

Grade: blue;
Effect: None.

Comment: A craftsman who is good at papermaking, but lazy and gluttonous.

Price: 500 Wen Tai and Wu Zhu coins. The working hours cannot exceed four hours a day. You must rest four days a month, and you need to eat delicious food during the rest period.

Seeing this follower, Su Ze felt tears in his eyes. It turned out that according to the system's evaluation, in this era, working within four hours a day is considered lazy and gluttonous!
The Papermaker is also a very practical follower. Although he has the negative attribute of "lazy and gluttonous", he is definitely a must-buy.

Next are the three green items. This time there are three items, namely:
[An exquisite knife and pen], [a stack of fine bamboo paper], [an exquisite wooden hairpin].

I bought the three items and it was time to solve the case before entering the scene to select the striker!

The next day, the day before the striker selection.

Su Ze did not hang around the Siyi Pavilion today, but came to the Mingtang where Li Daoyuan worked.

Su Chao was helping Li Daoyuan sort out the bamboo slips. He was surprised to see Su Ze and heard Su Ze say:

"Ling Yin, I have already found out the case of the theft of the falcon of the Rourou king."

Su Chao was so shocked that the bamboo slips in his hand fell to the ground, but Li Daoyuan did not seem too surprised. Instead, he said calmly:
"In that case, is there anything I need to do?"

"Please ask the governor to go to the Siyi Pavilion and meet the Rouran King. I will explain the case to you."

Li Daoyuan stood up and said, "Okay, let's go to the Four Barbarians Pavilion." Su Chao quickly picked up the bamboo slips that had fallen on the ground and followed the two of them out of the Henan government office. He helped Li Daoyuan get on the ox cart, turned to Su Ze and asked:

"Brother Su, how did you solve the case?"

Su Ze did not answer Su Cho's question, but followed Li Daoyuan's ox cart and headed towards Siyi Hall.

Su Cho's mind was full of curiosity, and he kept regretting why he had been so engrossed in following Li Daoyuan to learn how to handle official business in the past few days, and had not followed Su Ze to investigate the case.

Seeing that the ox cart was about to go far away, Su Chao hurriedly chased after it and shouted, "Wait for me!"

Except for Li Daoyuan, all other officials and servants of Luoyang Prefecture walked, surrounding the ox cart and moving slowly south along Camel Bell Street towards the Siyi Pavilion.

The oxcart was moving very slowly, and Su Chao soon caught up with the group. He caught up with Su Ze, panting, and asked:
"Brother Su, do you know what kind of person the Worm King Anagui is?"

There are also some fragmentary records of this Rouran king Anagui in the later historical books of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Su Ze recalled the historical materials he knew. The life of this Rourou King was full of ups and downs, which can be summarized as a series of great ups and downs.

After inheriting the throne, he encountered civil strife in the Rouran region and fled to Luoyang.

Later, the Rouran's great enemy, Gaoche, suddenly declined. With the support of the Northern Wei, Anagui regained the Khan throne and began to dominate the grassland.

After the fall of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Rouran became the target of competition between the Northern Qi and Western Wei.

In his later years, the Turks rose, he was defeated and killed by the Turks, and the Rouran also completely declined.

Of course, what later novelists talked about most was not the Rouran King, but his daughter, the Rouran Princess.

In the historical timeline before Su Ze traveled through time, Gao Huan's Northern Qi and Yuwen Tai's Western Wei were fighting for supremacy, and Gao Huan once sought help from the Rouran.

Anagui's daughter fell in love with the male succubus Gao Shenwu and insisted on marrying Gao Huan. She even raped Gao Huan, who was already seriously ill at the time.

You have to know that Gao Huan and Anagui are from the same generation!

When reading this part of the history, Su Ze couldn't help but sigh that the male succubus of the Northern Qi Dynasty was indeed worthy of its reputation.

By the way, the male succubus is still lying on his butt in the hotel recovering from his injuries.

Seeing Su Ze in a daze, Su Chao thought that the bait he threw out had been taken, and he quickly said:
"Brother Su is curious too, right? I'll tell you about the Ruru King, and you'll tell me about the investigation. How about that?"

Su Ze thought about it and decided not to keep Su Chao in suspense. He said, "You go first."

Su Chuo organized his words and thought for a while before uttering two words:
"Hero."

"Hero?" Su Ze did not expect that Su Cho had such a high opinion of the Rourun King.

Su Chao nodded and said, "My brother is a guest of the Duke of Danyang. He once met the Rourou King with the King of Danyang."

"My brother said that the servants of the Rourun King worship him as a god and are willing to die for him."

"And all the important officials that the Rouran King has met will basically speak well of him in the court."

"That's why the General of the Cavalry is so afraid of this man."

So that's how it is. Su Ze became more determined in his thinking.
