A village chief who does not want to be a village chief is not a good villager

The convoy arranged by the magistrate of Nan'an City looked like a convoy delivering supplies, but in fact there wasn't much to deliver.

The supplies looted before December may have been Mo Jianji's temporary limit.The food and grass for the one hundred horse-drawn carts at the beginning had a greater psychological effect rather than a practical effect.

A hundred carts of grain seems like a lot.But thinking about the 20 soldiers stationed at the border and the fact that there is no way to continue to transport food over the next four months at least, one knows that one hundred vehicles is not much at all.

Mo Jianji and others made such a big noise, but they just wanted to give the soldiers a feeling that 'food and grass are absolutely fine'.

Jian Ping is definitely a person who can adapt to life, and he is also the kind of person who can adapt to life as quickly as possible.In Jian Ping's view, those who are not willing to be mediocre and pursue heroism are things that only those who have lived enough will do.

The 25 years of orphan life has smoothed many edges and corners of Jian Ping.It's not that there is no pursuit, but that I know how to use the best method.

So after deciding to embark on the path of 'writing a book', Jian Ping didn't give himself any time to regret it. Before the Chinese New Year, he had discussed everything with Tian Wen, packed up and saluted and was ready to go.

The flower shop at home is temporarily handed over to Jian Le to take care of it. What Tian Wen left behind are some easy-to-care flowers and plants, which only need a little watering on weekdays.

The itinerary this time is tentatively planned for two months, and the flowers and plants left in the greenhouse in the backyard of the house are definitely enough to support the small shop until then.

Even if it wasn't enough, she told Jian Le that she could just close the door when the time came.Anyway, the small shop they opened at home was more for fun than money.

With no worries, Jian Ping's affairs became very handy.This time the convoy had a total of thirty carriages, and there was no food at all.

All the ten drivers in the front were dressed in cotton-padded clothes, but they were not for the whole army.After all, 20 people, ten horse-drawn carriages, is a joke.

The twenty horse-drawn carts behind were pulling something that Jian Ping hadn't thought of—coal.

It is not the kind of charcoal that is burned with wood, but the kind of coal that is really dug directly from the ground.Jian Ping doesn't know how far this dynasty has researched these things, but for Jian Ping, the more familiar things appear, it means that his quality of life can be improved a lot, which can be regarded as a good thing Son.

The convoy drove for three days before seeing the border towns.Compared with the rapid march of the army, the speed of the convoy pulling supplies was not a little bit worse.

After three days of vague calculations, Jian Ping also had a rough guess about the place where Bai Huankong was stationed.But still the same sentence, Jian Ping didn't want to devote himself to the court, so those vague guesses were just guesses.

When they arrived in the town, Jian Ping and the others also had to get out of the car for inspection.Looking up and looking around, the place as far as the eye can see is desolate.

The inner side of the city wall made of thick and large stones is still a bit shapely and regular.But the further you go, the more dilapidated it becomes.

The width of the town is at least a few hundred meters, but it does not prevent Jian Ping and others from seeing the real defensive wall at the entrance from the inland that really separates the Great Xia Dynasty from the Hu people.

Following the name of the previous dynasty, the people of the Great Xia Dynasty collectively referred to the enemies on the inland border as Hu people, while those facing the water in the south were collectively referred to as water bandits.

As for those enemies farther to the south, they were directly called Japanese pirates or something, Jian Ping was not surprised at all.

There is a time-traveling ancestor in front, and it seems that any changes will not make people feel strange.

The Great Xia Dynasty he was in had completely deviated from the historical track he had learned, and was developing slowly and sometimes rapidly towards a future that no one could say for sure.

After paying the city entry tax of one or two taels of silver per person, the three of them followed the convoy and continued on.Jian Ping didn't care about the tax of one tael per person, but Tian Wen and Tian Wu's eyes widened in disbelief.

You must know that entering Nan'an City once is only two yuan for the city's entry tax.And this war-torn city on the border actually charged a tael of silver? ?

I'm afraid that if it wasn't for Jian Ping's insistence, the two brothers would have wanted to go back the same way.

"The people who can come here during the war are either profit-seeking businessmen or people who are really desperate. Whether it is for the development of the town or to stop some people who are looking for death, it is not too much for the managers to charge more money .”

Seeing the shocked faces of the two brothers, Jian Ping shrugged. "After all, for those profiteering businessmen, one tael is not too much. For those who want to die, anyway, money is already outside their possessions, and there is nothing wrong with leaving it to those who need it more."

Tian Wen was persuaded in an instant, and nodded, as if he had been so.

On the contrary, after Tian Wu was stunned for a moment, he looked at his pair of brothers with an indescribable expression, not knowing what to say at all.

What did you say, was he really almost convinced by his brother-in-law to think it was true?

"Hahaha, this little brother has extraordinary knowledge!"

The tangled look on Tian Wu's face is only at this moment of being hit by Jian Ping, he can still show the immature look that a teenager should have.

However, Tian Wu didn't even have time to roll his eyes to express his helplessness, and his ears were almost roared by the loud laughter from behind.

Loud laughter like thunder, Tian Wu had only seen such descriptions in books before.I didn't expect that one day, I would actually meet such a person in real life.

Tian Wu turned around quickly, and looked at the visitor together with Jian Ping and Tian Wen who were already facing there.Specifically, it should be a group of people.

A burly man with a bearded face walked in the front, followed by ten guards with knives who walked in neat steps with solemn faces and murderous looks.

The situation of the big man is better. It can be seen that the armor was once shining with silver.It's just that there are a lot of blood stains on it now, so it looks a lot mottled.

The original red cloak was half torn, and a scruffy beard walked over with a helmet in his arms, laughing.

Compared with Tian Wen, it was like a huge body like a hill, and every step could give people a feeling of shaking the earth.

But Tian Wu knew that it was not really shaking the mountains, but the powerful aura released from this person's whole body.

Tian Wu bit the tip of his tongue fiercely to calm himself down.Taking advantage of the situation, he stood on the other side of Tian Wen, controlling his trembling legs and feet to protect his elder brother.

Tian Wen was also taken aback, but because he saw a lot of Yang Tie and others at home, he got used to it faster than Tian Wu.

As for Jian Ping, he doesn't care about this coercion at all, okay?Especially if you know that the other party is on the same front as you, you won't care, okay?

"General Peng." Jian Ping clasped his hands together and saluted the approaching general.

Peng Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked at Jian Ping, his white teeth bared from laughing, it was more like a fierce beast demonstrating. "you know me?"

The two brothers Tian Wen and Tian Wu just got a glance from Peng Xiao.From the beginning to the end, Peng Xiao's attention was on this man named Jian Ping.

How could Peng Xiao not inquire about the life-saving food and grass brought from Bai Huankong?And this time Mo Jianji came to bring things, but someone specially sent someone to tell him that Jian Ping, who interested him, was among the people who came with the team.

In the past, Peng Xiao was interested in Jian Ping because Jian Ping could bring food to the border.But now, after seeing the real person, Peng Xiao found that he was more interested in this scholar.

It didn't have the sour smell he thought at all, and it was just a word, so he thought the two of them would get along very well.

Jian Ping cupped his hands again to signal, his gesture was respectful, but his face was not too turbulent. "Peng Xiao, the general of the frontier army, is the patron saint of our Northwest after all. If you don't even know you, then wouldn't you be looking for death without knowing how to die?"

Jian Ping's last sentence is very weird, at least most people really have to react for a long time to realize the meaning of Jian Ping's words.

But Peng Xiao heard it with one ear, and because he heard it, he felt a little better.

"Hahahaha, Jian Ping, I also know you. I wanted to meet you before, but I didn't expect to hear some interesting words today."

Peng Xiao was really happy, even though the big face that was more bandit than bandit laughed out of joy, it could almost scare away the children Ye Cry, but he still couldn't help wanting to laugh.

On the contrary, Jian Ping, who was standing opposite Peng Xiao, raised his eyebrows very flatly. "Oh, that was meant for you. It would be even better if the general was willing to use it as a certificate of honor."

Tian Wen was stunned for a moment, then silently moved to Jian Ping's side, carefully pulled Jian Ping's sleeve, and carefully looked at Peng Xiao and the others.

Tian Wu's eyes widened in shock, and he looked at his brother-in-law in disbelief.

Even Peng Xiao was so startled by Jian Ping's words that he forgot to laugh, until after blinking his eyes several times, he plucked his ears hard again.But after looking at Jian Ping's indifferent look, he burst out laughing uncontrollably again.

"Hahahaha, brother Jian is indeed a wonderful person. I didn't feel much when I heard Xiaobai say that you are an interesting person before, but now I know that Xiaobai really didn't lie to me, hahahahaha."

Jian Ping calmly stood opposite Peng Xiao and waited for the other party to finish laughing. He didn't want to tell the other party at all, and it was the Xiaobai he was talking about telling himself.

What he, a great general, likes most is to be straightforward, the more direct without concealment, the more he likes it.

After trying again and again, such a decision seems to have achieved the result I wanted.
