I have a backstage in Datang

"Then hire one!"

Zhao's fourth daughter-in-law was quite decisive and said that she agreed to do so, but she was a woman after all, and she felt a little distressed about money when the matter came to an end, so she couldn't help but whispered: "It's just that the price is too scary. I have to pay for one day of employment. Fifty Wen. Can you go over and negotiate the price and try to lower the price as much as possible?"

The yamen servant was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at the tour guide over there.

Then he turned around again, and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid it won't work, these four people are bitten to death. It seems that fifty renminbi is a minimum limit, or it is a rule in Youzhou City. They are obviously urgent They wanted to attract business, but they didn't express the intention of lowering the price..."

At this moment, Niu Wa interjected, and also lowered his voice and said, "Under the normal situation, four people competing for business at the same time will definitely lower the price, but I just observed secretly for a long time, and found that they have no intention of this at all. is the bottom line."

Zhao's fourth daughter-in-law sighed, and said helplessly, "That, that, that's the only way to go, let's hire a tour guide."

The yamen servant hurriedly nodded in agreement, but his face showed embarrassment, and he said again: "Sister-in-law Zhao, this money, this money..."

He suppressed his blushing, and finally acted like he was going all out, and said bravely: "We are very poor, and we have spent a lot of money on the way."

Zhao's fourth daughter-in-law nodded, reached out and took out a package from her side, and sighed again: "I will pay the money."

The yamen servant's face was even more embarrassing, and he looked extremely ashamed with his head down.

Zhao's fourth daughter-in-law looked up and suddenly asked in a low voice, "Four people, who should I hire?"

The yamen servant quickly raised his head, with a shrewd look in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "We have already made up our minds about this matter. We hired the tallest man. As for the reason, it is also very simple. His accent has the local flavor of Shandong. , so it is likely to be a Shandong fellow who fled famine and came to Youzhou at the beginning."

Zhao's fourth daughter-in-law immediately understood, nodded repeatedly and said: "Since he is a fellow, let's choose him."

As she spoke, she opened the package beside her, and carefully took out five copper coins from it. Under the bright sunlight, the copper coins flashed, and she handed the five copper coins to the yamen servant, saying: "This is today's employment money, take it with you." Make a deal with him..."

The yamen servant was slightly taken aback, his eyes fell on the five copper coins, and he said obviously distressed: "Sister-in-law Zhao Si, why did you take out the top ten coins?"

When ten ten coins, one can be worth ten Wen coins.

Just because gold was added to the money when it was minted, its value is far higher than that of ordinary copper coins.

Seeing that Zhao's fourth daughter-in-law looked decisive, she said solemnly: "Since you have decided to spend money, then spend it sincerely. Let's pay him ten dollars directly, hoping to make him feel the kindness of fellow Shandong..."

The yamen servant nodded thoughtfully and said: "As long as you are not a wolf-hearted person, you will definitely not deceive people when you see our sincerity."

Zhao's fourth daughter-in-law also nodded and said, "That's what I mean."

……

The yamen servant no longer struggled, picked up five big coins and turned back.

Soon he stood in front of the four tour guides again, and pointed at the tall man without hesitation.

Immediately!

"Ugh……"

"really……"

"It's him again..."

He sighed three times in a row, appearing quite disappointed.

However, although the three unselected tour guides were disappointed, they did not show anger. Instead, they still had smiles on their faces, and politely bid farewell.

Before leaving, the three of them still did not forget to tease the tall man, saying: "Brother Tan, I let you take advantage of the nostalgia again, your accent sounds like a native of Shandong, and they really regard you as their fellow Shandong Hahahaha, if they know that you are from Hebei Road, and that you have engaged in highway robbery before, I will probably be shocked."

This was obviously a joke before parting, but the migration team was really taken aback.

Fortunately, the man opened his mouth in time, and smiled and cursed at the three tour guides: "Get out of here, I dare to beat you to death. If you frighten my employer, be careful, I will go to the government to sue you..."

The three tour guides laughed and walked away along the official road.

Only then did the man turn his head, bowed his hands solemnly towards the migrating people, and said, "Employers, don't worry, our name is Tan Nineteen, and we are from the Youyun Gu family. If you are worried, then there is no one in Youzhou who can reassure you."

A yamen servant approached slowly, and tentatively asked with sparkling eyes: "Those people said just now, you were a bandit before?"

"Yes, I did!"

Tan Nineteen did not hesitate, nodded and admitted directly, saying: "Not only have we been bandits, but we are also bandits. Not only are we a bandit, but all the more than 1000 men in our family are bandits. Honestly, many people here in Youzhou know about it.”

The yamen servant's eyes froze, and he took a step back quietly. At this time, several other yamen servants stood with him at the same time, and they tried together and said: "Since you have been a bandit, won't the Youzhou government arrest you?"

"Hahahaha!"

Tan Nineteen laughed loudly, and suddenly stretched out his hand to grab his trouser leg, only to see that he pulled up the trouser leg vigorously, revealing a large scar on his calf.

He laughed and said again: "Look at my leg, it was broken by my lady. At the beginning we were disobedient and rebelliously opposed to the lady's decision, so the lady broke it with a stick in a rage. my leg……"

He stopped talking, and then said: "Our leg was broken, and we can only be crippled in this life, but we are lucky to have a good Patriarch. The Patriarch's sister is a fairy, and she waved With a wave of his hand, the broken leg was connected again."

Everyone was full of strange faces, but they didn't understand the meaning of what he said.

Fortunately, Tan Nineteen followed up and spoke again, pointing to his calf proudly and said, "With my broken leg, who in Youzhou City wouldn't envy me? With my broken leg, who would dare to question our origins?" I, Tan Nineteen, am a collateral lineage of the famous Youyun Gu family..."

A collateral branch of the Youyun Gu family?

These words were immediately caught in the ears of the yamen servants.

Niu Wa jumped out of the car, walked in front of him and stood up, cautiously and tentatively asked: "You said you are a collateral lineage of the Youyun Gu family?"

Tan Nineteen raised his head proudly, and said: "Our Tan family originated from Wuyang County, Hebei, and we all joined the Youyun Gu family six years ago. Everyone knows this, and we don't have to fool you."

Niu Wa and several yamen servants quietly looked at each other, and they could see the relief in each other's eyes.

Since this Tan Nineteen was born in a collateral lineage of the Youyun Gu family, it would be impossible for him to block roads and rob again.

Just at this time, Zhao Wuji's voice suddenly heard in the team, and he said extremely solemnly: "The Tan family in Wuyang, Hebei, used to be a noble man in the green forest, and their family inherited the Twelve Road Tan Legs. When they were most prosperous, they occupied the The thirty-mile hills bordering Hebei and Henan have tens of thousands of acres of land, so they can be called a large family."

This man named Zhao Wuji obviously came from the green forest. He walked slowly to several yamen servants with his body wounded, stared at Tan Shijiu and said, "If you say they are thugs, they used to be thugs, but six years ago they It is said that at the beginning they were horse bandits and were sent to the grasslands to plunder the Turks... They made countless meritorious deeds and were listed as Youyun. The first collateral of the Gu family."

The yamen servants nodded again and again, and felt more at ease about Tan Nineteen's identity.

And Tan Nineteen was slightly surprised, he stared at Zhao Wou-ki and looked him up and down, but unfortunately, after Zhao Wou-ki finished speaking, he turned around and walked back slowly supporting his injuries.

In any case, the matter of hiring was accomplished.

But when the yamen servant took out five big coins, some small accidents happened again on both sides. Tan Shijiu's eyes flashed, his face became serious, and he asked in a deep voice, "This is the top ten coins. How can you have such a lot of money in your hands?"

He said without waiting for everyone to answer, and asked again in a deep voice: "There are not many such big coins minted, so they haven't been promoted among the people for the time being. Most of them were rewarded to the soldiers of the Liaodong War. Could it be that you people are Some soldiers’ family members are not successful?”

Niuwa's heart moved, he quickly laughed, pointed at the women on the bullock cart and said, "Yes, yes, they are military dependents. Did you see that sister-in-law? Her man is called Zhao Laosi..."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, I saw Tan Nineteen stamping his feet angrily, and said, "Damn it, this business is going to lose money. He even received military family members, and Baigan paid for it, not to mention his work."

As he spoke, he suddenly raised his hand, slapped himself viciously, and cursed: "I made you stupid, I made you stupid, you know that there will be a migratory team of military relatives arriving in the next few days, and you are still yelling!" Get together to pick up the business, Tan Nineteen, Tan Nineteen, you are a fucking pig brain..."

Everyone in the migration was stunned, unable to figure out why he did this all of a sudden.

……

After a while, everyone finally understood.

At this time, the team had already set off again, and Tan Nineteen was in charge of leading the way sullenly. This guy's face was swollen very high, obviously because of his slap.

The yamen servants in the team tried their best to hold back their laughter, and said one after another: "Brother Tan, are the rules really that strict? We saw that you were angry and annoyed just now, but you still accepted this free business. It is said that you Identity, shouldn't be so aggrieved."

"Bullshit! I don't call this aggrieved!" Tan Nineteen turned around and glared, and opened his mouth fiercely to a few yamen servants, and loudly argued: "Businessman's business, can I be called aggrieved? Gao Shang, do you understand?"

"Hahahaha!" The servants laughed out loud.

The women on the bullock cart behind were also laughing softly.

Tan Jiujiu blushed, and said angrily: "I tell you that you don't understand. Anyway, this is our noble character. There are many rules in Youzhou City, but none of them are strict. No one will specialize Keep an eye on the assessment, and no one will chase after the fact to settle small accounts. All the rules are written in the government affairs hall, and all the people of Youzhou can memorize and abide by themselves."

He paused while talking, and then said: "My Patriarch once said that rules are those that are followed by oneself. If it is replaced by force and persecution, then the original meaning of the rules will be lost. Hmph, you don't understand anyway. But we still have to say that we are of high moral character."

A little guy poked his head out of the bullock cart, blinking and blinking his eyes and asked curiously: "Uncle Tan Nineteen, what does it mean to be virtuous? Is it like you, who specialize in doing business for free?"

The little guy's last knife is really ruthless.

Tan Nineteen almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

This guy stomped his feet viciously, walked forward angrily, as if he was about to go to war, and said loudly: "I won't talk, I won't tell you, I will take you to Youzhou directly, and perform all my duties as a tour guide Damn, this time the loss is huge. Not only do you have to work for nothing, but you also have to pay for the people out of your own pocket, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

……

... Is Tan Nineteen really a pig?Obviously not.Is he stupid?Obviously not.But he would rather yell in anger and slap himself viciously, but he still insisted on performing his duties and leading the migration team into the city to settle down.Shanshui writes in this way, and also writes the kindness, honesty and sincerity of a small person.

And the whole Youzhou City, many, many people are like this, let us enjoy all the novelties of Youzhou New City as the migration team continues to move forward.

Chapter 393 [Finally going to enter Youzhou City]

I Have Backstage in Datang Chapter 393 of the main text volume [Finally going to enter Youzhou City] "Uncle Tan Shijiu, what are those tall wings?"

"What? Where are the big wings? Why didn't we see them?"

"It's the one on the mountain. It keeps wandering around. The sound is so loud, booming."

"Hahahaha, I understand, I understand. Those are not big wings, that is called wind power generation. When it is blown by strong winds, it will create a kind of magical electricity, which is very powerful, very powerful..."

"Uncle Tan Nineteen, what is electricity?"

"Electricity is electricity, so what's the point? For example, when it rains when thunder strikes, the sky and the earth become brighter with a bang. The brighter is electricity. You can also think it is thunder."

"But Uncle Tan Nineteen, is it thunder or electricity? Can you explain clearly, the more we listen, the more confused we become..."

"I said, are you guys finished? Uncle, my income of hundreds of thousands of yuan in a quarter of an hour, how can I have time to tell you this? Is it annoying? Hurry back and sit in the bullock cart."

"Uncle Tan Nineteen, why are you angry? Is it because you don't understand, so you become angry?"

"Nonsense, nonsense! Uncle, as a collateral lineage of the Youyun Gu family, I am full of knowledge. I just despise you as annoying, so I don't want to talk to you little things."

"But Uncle Tan Nineteen..."

"enough!"

Tan Jiujiu was finally upset by a group of children, and he roared: "Anyone who dares to chase after me and ask questions, I will sell him to the Turkic barbarians, and then he will be thrown into the sheep pile, and he will become a fool." Become a stinky little brat."

While roaring, he deliberately put on a fierce posture.

It's a pity that the children were laughing and laughing without any fear.

A little girl hugged his thigh, and slithered up along the thigh, her movements were extremely skillful, as nimble as a little monkey.

In a blink of an eye, he climbed onto Tan Jiujiu.

I saw the little girl put her arms around his neck, put her mouth together and kissed him on the face, giggled and said, "Uncle Tan Nineteen, don't be angry, Niuniu kisses you to make you happy..."

"I, me, me!"

Poor Tan Shijiu, a man of nine feet tall, has no temper after being beaten by a group of children. He stands there with a face full of despair, letting the little girl slobber on his face.

On the bullock cart not far away, the women giggled and joked: "Brother Tan, you don't look like a gangster. You can't even deal with a group of children. How did you block the road and rob us?" where?"

Tan Jiujiu blushed, he groaned and argued, "Don't talk nonsense, we used to be very ruthless when we robbed mountains, with a big knife in our hand, we never blinked when we killed people..."

He tried his best to look majestic, and tried to show a fierce look on his face, but he only heard another click, and Niuniu kissed him again with saliva.

The guy immediately froze on the spot, turning his head resentfully not to listen to the loud laughter of the crowd.

……

The bullock carts drove slowly, and the team continued to advance. As they got closer to Youzhou, the roads on both sides became more prosperous.

The women felt that their eyes were gradually not enough. They lay on the bullock carts and kept looking around. Every time they saw something strange, they immediately let out a sound of admiration.

They greeted Tan Nineteen loudly and kept making various inquiries, which was very annoying, but Tan Nineteen answered patiently every time.

For example, a woman saw the flagpoles fluttering high, so she asked curiously: "Brother Tan, why are there so many flagpoles erected on both sides of the road?"

Tan Nineteen rolled his eyes, hugged Niu Niu and replied, "That's the slogan of each village, and the flags are written with various slogans."

The woman blinked, pointed to a huge fence not far away and asked, "What are these fences for?"

Tan Nineteen didn't even look at that side, and replied directly: "Three years ago, Youzhou City opened a mutual market, which was specially used for border trade and trade in neighboring countries. Those foreigners always drive a large number of cattle and sheep. After coming here, you must find Store them in a place... At the beginning, a certain village built a fence to provide livestock storage services for a fee. Gradually, other villages followed suit, and almost every village built a fence next to the official road. Fence."

The women were amazed by what they heard, and couldn't help asking: "Can you make money for a fee just by building a fence? Is it really so easy to make money from foreigners?"

"It's not just about building a fence."

Tan Jiujiu held Niu Niu with one hand, pointed to the fence ahead with the other, and said, "You only see the fence on the surface, but you don't know the services behind it. Whenever a foreign caravan arrives, They store their livestock in these pens. From the moment they deposit it, the village that receives it becomes the temporary owner of the livestock.”

Temporary owners of livestock?

The women became more curious.

Tan Shijiu explained: "For example, the fodder for feeding must be borne by the village, and if the livestock is sick, the village must also be responsible. If any village is unlucky and receives a large number of sick livestock, and this batch Once the livestock is not cured and dies in the fence during storage, the village will bear the loss.”

He paused while talking, with a hint of anger on his face, and said resentfully: "A certain time a year ago, our Tanjiazhuangzi suffered a big loss. That time we took over 800 heads from the Wusun Kingdom in the Western Regions. As a result, more than 1 cows died of illness during the storage period. His grandma's, our Tan family compensated Wusun State more than [-] yuan that time..."

"My goodness!"
