At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Outside of the Haoqiang manor, he traveled all over the country and saw countless farms directly under the government. He can guarantee that no one in the farms will go hungry and there will be no food to eat.

What is a good day?

Maybe this is a good day.

Moreover, perhaps the good times have passed for a long time, and he even thinks that any place should be like this.

People can eat and smile.

Although the work is very tiring, there will be natural disasters, and it is almost dark to work in the field, so tired that I can't stand up straight.

They will also be assembled by officials to repair water conservancy projects, or rush to harvest food, or rush to transport intoxicating manure, and even fight with neighboring villages over the ownership of several trucks of manure.

During the slack season, in order to save more food for the mothers-in-law and children at home, they would go out in the cold wind to participate in various government projects, earn some wages, and eat a few meals managed by the government.

Very tired, very bitter, very ordinary.

But there is food to eat, enough to eat, and enough salt.

I don’t want to be a luxury such as fruit, and I can only dream about cakes and the like, but during the holidays, I can occasionally buy some meat for a meal, so that the whole family can get together and have a meal together.

The fat, oily, greasy fat slices made the elders' eyes turn red when they saw it, and then wiped their tears. No matter what, they were reluctant to eat it, so they let the children in the family eat it.

Those rough-headed and tiger-brained boys have a good life. They lived under the rule of His Majesty the Emperor from birth. I don’t know how the elders survived. When they looked at the fat slices, their eyes glowed, and they swallowed a large slice without chewing. Go down, then lick your lips and point to the next piece eagerly.

The angry white-haired elders in the family blew their beards and stared, and slapped it, making them have to chew it hard before swallowing it.

Chew carefully, chew slowly, chew carefully!

This is meat!It's meat!How many generations of our ancestors have not eaten meat a few times!You swallowed it without chewing it?

Sin!

Ma Yuan wanted to laugh.

Because the fatty meat slices are slippery and greasy, it is full of fat when you swallow it, and it goes down as soon as you swallow it, there is no need to chew it, it is so delicious!

Whenever he thought of these things, he couldn't stop laughing.

But when he entered Lan's City, he suddenly realized.

It's not that the whole world has changed for the better, but the country he lives in has been bettered by the emperor he is loyal to.

Outside the sphere of the emperor's rule, or where the emperor could not intervene, everything was as usual.

You can also see people in ragged clothes.

You can also see people with the word hunger written on their faces.

The same one who could see the shambling and aimless gait he couldn't forget no matter what.

They walked and walked, not knowing where they were going, or whether they could get to the place they wanted to go, and they didn't know when they would suddenly fall down and never get up again.

Just like those who fled together with Ma Yuan back then.

Ma Yuan suddenly wanted to cry.

He suddenly remembered what the lecturer said to them in a class in the Linzi training camp when Tianzi had not yet ascended the throne.

The lecturer told them that General Guo can protect the people in Tuntian farms from starvation and provide them with salt, but there are people who General Guo cannot protect.

Everyone in training camp is weird.

Everyone thinks how can a strong man like General Guo have someone he can't protect?

General Guo is so tough and brave, even Yuan Shao, who is famous all over the world, is no match for him.

General Guo always wins battles, and every time he wins a battle, he will send delicious food to everyone, so everyone is very happy, knowing that once good things are delivered, it means that General Guo has won a battle.

How could such General Guo not be able to do anything?

Then the lecturer talked about how General Guo rescued peasants like them from the Haoqiang Manor and sent them to the Tuntian Farm through struggle. He told the past that the serfs in the Haoqiang Manor were oppressed and could not even eat. .

In this regard, the people in the training camp feel the same way.

So their hearts are full of hatred.

Full of hatred for the masters of the manor, for those who blocked General Guo from saving them.

I wish I could tear them apart.

The lecturer said that General Guo was able to save them because they were lucky, but there are still many unlucky people who still live a miserable life in Haoqiang Manor.

Ma Yuan hated it so much at the time, he raised his hand and asked the lecturer where the damned masters of the manor were.

He will spare his life to kill those bastards for General Guo, rescue all the peasants who are starving and freezing, let them eat and clothe together, and never suffer from hunger and cold again.

The lecturer showed a sad expression.

The lecturer said that those people were literate, knowledgeable, and able to govern the country. They were all high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the court, and they were indispensable helpers for General Guo in governing the world.

Without them, General Guo could not rule, and General Guo had to compromise with them, otherwise even the people who have been rescued now, including their group, would not be able to keep them.

Those people are too powerful. General Guo is alone. No matter how hard he tries, he cannot defeat them. General Guo is too lonely.

General Guo hated them, but he also hated his incompetence. He often cried and sighed, feeling that he was powerless.

So all the people who attended the class cried at that time.

While crying, he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, hating himself for not being able to kill those bastards for General Guo, wishing he could let those people die immediately and change the color of the world.

Ma Yuan hated those people even more. He clenched his fist and asked the lecturer what he should do to save those who were still starving and freezing.

The lecturer told him with a serious face, study hard, work hard to master knowledge, and strive to one day be able to replace those high-ranking officials who prevented General Guo from saving the peasants.

As long as they have the power to help General Guo govern the country, as long as they form a scale, then General Guo will have the confidence to attack those who stand in his way, take them all down, and liberate all those who are still starving and freezing.

Eliminate all tyrants, destroy all manors where serfs are imprisoned, and rescue them all.

Let them all eat thick vegetable porridge, and they can eat as much as they want, and salt can be added to thick vegetable porridge, which is salty.

The children in the training camp are General Guo's hope for the future.

General Guo subsidized them with his own food money, so that they would be fed and clothed, that they could eat meat, and that they could read, read, and learn skills. The purpose was to make them the hope of the future.

General Guo never expects them to give anything in return. He just hopes that they will not forget the suffering and hunger they have suffered, and study hard to change this terrible situation.

That was the beginning of many partners in the training camp vowing to fight for General Guo without hesitating their lives.

Everyone knows that General Guo wants to save them all, but some people stop General Guo from letting him go.

Such things are deeply engraved in Ma Yuan's mind.

He grew up and studied day after day with a deep hatred for those powerful and dignitaries. After successfully graduating, he was allowed to leave the training camp, deeply concealing his hatred, and walked on this land, traveling north and south.

There are many others like him.

Now that he has traveled far and wide and has seen a lot, he is convinced that what the lecturer said is not wrong at all.

It was really difficult for General Guo at that time and now Emperor Wei.

Those high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the court all have farms in their homes, all have land private property, and some farmers are not free to cultivate their land for them in exchange for a very pitiful morsel of grain, just like him once.

Tens of thousands of powerful manors, millions or even tens of millions of manor serfs, they are actually existing on this land.

These people cannot enjoy the various preferential policies formulated by his beloved emperor for farmers.

They cannot enjoy any preferential policies that belong to the people of Wei State.

Tax cuts, tax exemptions, grain, oil, rice and noodles, land grants, so many good policies, these people can't enjoy them.

Aren't these people the people of Wei State?

If yes, why don't they enjoy such a policy?

If not, why did they live on the land of Wei State?

How can such a thing be allowed to continue to happen?

He wants to replace those bastards, and wants to help his beloved emperor kill those bastards and rescue the people who are still oppressed from them.

Let them eat enough, wear warm clothes, eat salty porridge with thick vegetables, and their stomachs will explode when they eat it!

Having experienced a dreamy life, from a humble little ant to a person whom His Majesty can trust and entrust important tasks to.

He stood with His Majesty the Emperor, gained His Majesty's trust and appointed him personally, and was responsible for carrying out such an important pioneering task, opening up the Silk Road for His Majesty the Emperor.

Taking a short breath, Ma Yuan calmed down his mood.

This is not the Kingdom of Wei, but the Kingdom of Guishuang.

There is no His Majesty the Emperor who he swore to pay back with his life. All the courtiers and emperors here are probably the same as those bastards. This place is the same as the Han Empire before it fell apart.

People here are not lucky enough.

They did not meet General Guo, the emperor of Wei.

Ma Yuan can only sincerely apologize to them, because he can't save them, and he still has people who need to be saved more.

Through various methods, through various channels, he followed His Majesty the Emperor whom he admired infinitely, overcame obstacles, and eliminated all high-ranking officials and dignitaries who stood in the way, so that every citizen of the Wei Kingdom could really eat enough, wear warm clothes, and Reading and literacy.

In this case, the life he has earned is really worth it.

He was originally a person who was going to starve to death, but he survived by chance because he met His Majesty the Emperor. Every day he lives now is bought for him by His Majesty the Emperor. He is very content.

Although I don't know when I will die, but living now is already earned.

Therefore, before he died, he hoped that he could try his best to do more things for His Majesty the Emperor, eradicate more moths for His Majesty, and dedicate himself to make more people full.

Opening up trade routes and dumping goods is a way to achieve his goal, because His Majesty the Emperor told him that money is needed to do great things.

Then he will work hard to earn more money for His Majesty the Emperor.

Satisfy His Majesty the Emperor, and use the money to save more people.

The people in front of him are the same as him.

But unfortunately, these people are not within the scope of his rescue, their luck is too bad.

They are destined not to eat that bowl of salty thick vegetable porridge.

Sighing slightly, putting away his heavy thoughts, Ma Yuan followed the merchants of Guishuang to the city.

Chapter 976 Six Emperors and Emperors Cannot Be Comparable

Ma Yuan let go of his melancholy and entered Lan's City with the Guishuang caravan.

But the melancholy here has been put down, the foul smell in Lan's city is really unbearable.

Seeing the calm look on the face of the Guishuang merchant, Ma Yuan couldn't help complaining to Saqi, the envoy of the King of Dawan.

"Don't you think it smells bad here? It's so smelly, why do these Guishuang people feel like they don't care at all?"

Sa Qi looked at the unspeakable expression on Ma Yuan's face, and the same expressions on the surrounding businessmen who accompanied him, so he shook his head.

"This is very normal, maybe they are used to it? Although I also feel that the smell here is stronger than that of our country's capital."

This is true, when they were in the capital of Dawan, it was probably because it was relatively dry, but the smell was not bad, and the place where they traded with each other was also relatively clean, without any strange smell.

Of course, the most important thing is that the population is small, the land is sparsely populated, the taste will not be too strong, and it will not be strong, unlike those big cities with tens of thousands of people.

Lan's City is obviously a large city with a population of 10, and it is inevitable to have a taste.

Saqi actually felt that these merchants from the Central Plains Empire were a bit hypocritical.

Isn't it just a little smelly?

Isn't this normal?

How clean is the place where they live?

Don't people in those cities with tens of 10 people need to excrete?

Or are they really too rich, so they deliberately use this statement to show that they are rich and clean?

Thatch was very dissatisfied with them.

But it is also true that the smell here is indeed relatively strong, and Sachs is a little short of breath due to the smoke.

So Saqi stepped forward and asked those Guishuang merchants how they could bear the strong smell here.

"Smell? Ah, there is a little bit, but it's already much better. It rained yesterday, which diluted the smell a little. If the sun came out, the smell would be even worse. It's still good now. Let's take advantage of it now." Take a few breaths."
