Daming Junior Scholar

Xie Tiansheng wanted to eat steamed buns, but he really had no money. Looking at the steamed buns that had been put in front of him, and then thinking of his two hungry younger brothers, he suddenly grabbed the steamed buns into his arms with his hand, and then He turned around and ran in the direction of the two brothers.

The steamed bun vendor was taken aback for a moment, but when he saw that Xie Tiansheng had already run away, he realized what had happened, and quickly pointed at Xie Tiansheng and shouted: "Come on, catch the robber, someone is here!" Grab my buns."

There are already a lot of people in this square, besides, many of them are preparing to serve as soldiers to pay their wages, and there is no shortage of people fighting against injustices. When they heard that someone dared to grab steamed buns here, they immediately surrounded them fiercely. When I came up, I didn't have much time to gather, so I surrounded the three brothers in the middle.

At this time, Xie Tiansheng had already brought back the steamed buns, and quickly opened the paper bag. The three brothers, one of them, took a big bite without caring about 21. Xie Tiansheng, who was outside, also saw many people surrounding him. When I came over, I felt that I was wronged, and I was too embarrassed to fight with them. When I thought about it, I let them beat me twice to vent my anger.

However, it's okay for me to be beaten, but I can't let my brother be beaten. As soon as I stretched out my hand, I used my body to hug the two brothers, and then bent down, so I just stiffened and was beaten.

Seeing that the thief didn't run away and was still being beaten here honestly, everyone immediately became excited, no matter how many, fists came down one after another, crackling very lively.

Just when everyone was enjoying the game, someone outside the crowd suddenly shouted: "Stop, everyone stop."

Who cares so much inside, when they were enjoying the fight, someone outside yelled loudly: "Master Zhifu is here, whoever dares to do anything again will be directly arrested in the prison."

This sentence is much more effective than the words just now. When the person who was beating someone just heard that the magistrate was coming, he immediately became frightened. He quickly got into the crowd and disappeared after a while. Walked in from the outside.

Hu Di, the prefect of Suzhou, was not among these people. It was none other than He Jiaan and Xu Wen who led the way. The two of them came here just to see how the recruiting situation was. When they saw so many people were happy, Unexpectedly, there was a sudden commotion here, and He Jiaan was afraid that the commotion would get worse, so he hurried over.

As soon as he entered the crowd, He Jiaan immediately saw a man pressing on top of the other two. He probably felt that there was nothing wrong. Xie Tiansheng finally straightened up, and when he turned around, He Jiaan was taken aback. , I saw a big man with a dark complexion, his mouth was full of blood, he still had half a piece of steamed bun in his mouth, and he didn’t swallow it. Most of it was soaked in blood. , reached out and tore off the small piece that was not stained with blood, and handed it to Xie Tianyang: "Third brother, eat this."

Chapter 1164 Serious Military Discipline

Seeing this scene, He Jia'an felt a little sour. Standing up, he was a seven-foot-tall man. Now, these few steamed buns were beaten like this. Watching the man carefully eat the rest of the steamed buns in his hand , I asked myself: "What the hell is going on?"

The peddler selling steamed buns at the side was also a little flustered, and he didn't understand, so he just yelled, how could he beat him like this, and said with a bitter face: "My lord, just now this brother came to my place to buy steamed buns, but it didn't work." I took the money and ran away, I just wanted to get the steamed buns back, but I didn’t expect to be beaten like this, if I knew it was like this, I wouldn’t want these three steamed buns.”

After eating the steamed buns, Xie Tiansheng wiped his mouth with his sleeve, came directly to He Jiaan, knelt down with a plop, and said loudly: "My lord, don't blame him, I stole the steamed buns. Catch me alone."

"No, I eat the steamed buns, sir, catch me." Xie Tianqi also ran over and knelt down beside Xie Tiansheng.

Before He Jiaan could react, Xie Tianyang also came over, kowtowed desperately to the ground and said, "My lord, it's because I'm too hungry that my elder brother will grab the steamed buns. We'll give you the money, and we'll be soldiers when we become soldiers." , and pay him back after payment.”

This time, He Jiaan finally understood that the three brothers wanted to be soldiers, but they were too hungry and had no money, so they took the risk to grab the steamed buns.

Seeing the three brothers being so affectionate, even Xu Wen beside him couldn't help but beg for them: "Lord He, I think it's better to forget it, isn't it just a few steamed buns, at worst I'll pay them back. "

He Jiaan gave Xu Wen a sideways glance and said nothing, then looked down at the three brothers kneeling in front of him, and said coldly: "Since you want to be my soldiers, you should know that my soldiers have one of the most important rules. Do you know what it is?"

Yo, the hearts of the three brothers suddenly tightened. They never thought that the officer standing in front of them was actually the admiral of the navy. This fell into his hands. The future of the three of them seems to be a little bit bad.

After hesitating for a moment, Xie Tiansheng said cautiously: "The villain doesn't know."

"I didn't know it was okay just now, after all, you are not my soldier yet, but now I will tell you all, if anyone wants to be my He Jiaan's soldier, he will do everything to me, and the gun can be directed at the enemy, but You can't face the common people, if anyone dares to rob the common people, don't blame me, He Jia'an, for being ruthless, understand?"

"Understood." Someone in the crowd responded.

Xu Wen was suddenly embarrassed, and he wanted to plead with the three brothers on the ground, but since He Jiaan said so, it seemed a little bad for him to plead again. When he was in trouble, He Jiaan turned to look at the three brothers and said : "I will give you three two ways now. First, no matter what work you do, return the steamed bun money. Second, become my soldier, and I will pay back the steamed bun money for you."

Uh?

Even a fool knows that the second point is of course the best. Just when the three brothers were about to agree, He Jiaan suddenly stretched out his hand and said, "Hey, don't agree so quickly, I haven't finished yet."

Then He Jiaan said again: "If you choose the first point, then let it go. If you choose the second point, it is a violation of military discipline, but you will be punished."

"My lord, can I ask what the punishment is?" Xie Tianyang, the youngest, asked carefully.

He Jiaan said coldly: "Not many, ten lashes per person."

Didn’t he just grab three steamed buns, and he was about to be whipped thirty times? He Jia’an’s strict military discipline immediately made everyone around him sigh. Those who wanted to sign up for the navy just now felt a little palpitating, and at this moment However, Xie Tiansheng suddenly raised his head and said loudly: "My lord, I snatched the steamed buns by myself. It has nothing to do with my brother. I carried all the thirty lashes by myself."

"Brother, hit me, I can bear it."

"Brother, you can't take it anymore, you will be beaten to death."

Seeing the three brothers huddling together and scrambling to get the beating, Xu Wen really couldn't stand it anymore. He stretched out his hand, took out a piece of silver from his waist, and handed it to the peddler's hand, saying: If I give you the silver, it’s the money they paid for the steamed buns.”

Who would have thought that the peddler was even more straightforward, and pushed back the money directly, plopped and knelt down in front of He Jiaan, and said repeatedly: "My lord, I misunderstood just now, the steamed buns in this brother's hand were not snatched, I gave them to you. That's what I gave."

Heh, good guy, you are all vying to be a good person, and I am the only villain, right?

The expression on He Jiaan's face became more and more serious, and he looked coldly at Xie Tiansheng who was kneeling on the ground, ignoring how other people pleaded, and sneered, "I didn't realize that your popularity is pretty good. I give you two choices, first, you three brothers can join me, but each of you has to receive ten lashes."

"What about the second?" Xie Tiansheng asked.

"Second..." He Jia'an sneered, "Second is very easy. The Navy won't recruit such a coward like you. Wherever you come from, just go back to where you are."

When He Jiaan finished speaking, Xie Tiansheng said bluntly: "I've made up my mind, I'll choose the first one."

"Yes, we listen to the elder brother." Xie Tianqi also nodded beside him.

He Jiaan smiled and said, "Think it over, if you want to be a navy, you will have to suffer this beating."

"Think it over." Xie Tiansheng said calmly: "A man dares to do something. Since the lord has given me a chance to turn around, I have to cherish it. Otherwise, I will have to carry the robber's back for the rest of my life." I live on my name, thank you sir for giving me a chance to redeem my sins."

After finishing speaking, Xie Tiansheng rolled up his clothes, exposed his back and said, "Come on."

Not only Xie Tiansheng, but his two brothers also imitated his example and exposed their backs. He Jiaan was not polite, and stretched out his hand and said, "Tang Lin, whip."

Tang Lin at the side held the whip with a little awkwardness, which was rare, and handed it to He Jiaan, while whispering: "Sir, let's forget it."

He Jiaan glared at him, and said, "Stop talking, or I'll beat you together."

As soon as he heard that he was going to beat himself, Tang Lin quickly stepped aside, watched He Jiaan walk up behind the three brothers, picked up the horsewhip, and swung it down heavily.

The crisp sound of the 'beep' was clearly heard by almost everyone in the square, and everyone's eyes became extremely complicated, watching He Jiaan whip one whip after another, until after thirty whips, The three brothers stood up from the ground staggeringly, and bowed to He Jia'an in salute.

He Jia'an lectured seriously: "Since the fine has already been imposed, the incident just now will be cancelled. From now on, no one is allowed to mention this matter again, Tang Lin..."

"Here." Tang Lin hurried over.

"You take their brothers to treat their injuries first, and then send them back to the villa. I have something to ask them tonight."

"Yes." Tang Lin replied, and then came to Xie Tiansheng, and asked worriedly: "How is it? Can we go?"

"Yes, yes." Xie Tiansheng quickly responded, he didn't know what kind of medicine He Jiaan was selling in this gourd, how could he heal himself after beating him?

It's just that this question can only be asked when I see him again. The three brothers followed Tang Lin and left here soon.

Chapter 1165

After the scene just now, the next recruiting process seemed extremely smooth. The yamen servants who maintained discipline just asked everyone to line up, and the people in the square quickly formed several long queues. Of course, thousands of people It is inevitable that there will be bumps and bumps when people stand together, but what these yamen servants didn't expect was that these little frictions quickly subsided without even having to open their mouths, and there was nowhere for them to find trouble even if they wanted to.

According to the content that has already been set, not only will you be admitted if you apply for a name, but you will also have to go through a very strict medical examination process. Craftsmen have the opportunity to show their skills, while those who want to be soldiers are much more cumbersome. Not only must they be strong and physically disabled, but more importantly, they must pass a pontoon bridge built by He Jiaan on the water.

After returning from the square, He Jiaan had already waited at the other end of the pontoon bridge. Someone had already brought a big umbrella for the sunshade, set up tables and chairs, and made a pot of tea. He Jiaan's attention became concentrated only after someone finally boarded the pontoon bridge.

If you want to be in the navy, you must have good water skills. I don't have much time to train them one by one from the beginning. I can only select some people with better balance through this selection, even if they are not good at water skills. Very good, and it can be cultivated quickly the day after tomorrow, and those who are not well balanced, how can they be expected to do things on a warship rolling in the waves, they can just be eliminated directly.
