Passing through the station

No one knew that on the same day, two of the top rich and handsome men in the entire Dazhou were violently beaten up by their respective fathers.The father didn't hold back, but His Royal Highness didn't lose a single hair, but Chu Hao could only lie flat on the bed and moan.

Ruan Bai was dragged by King Pingxi to talk about his heart, but this topic was a bit difficult to talk about.King Pingxi went around for a long time, but he didn't get to the point, but the prince's level is very high, Ruan Bai didn't see anything wrong at all, and thought that the father-in-law really cared about their daily life.

"Whoever is free will do the housework. Anyway, the place is not big, so it won't take much time." As long as the stupid dog doesn't destroy it, there is only so much space in the house.

"Chu Hao usually cooks breakfast, and he gets up early. I cook lunch and dinner, and he will come back for dinner."

"When I start my morning exercises, Chu Hao will accompany me."

"Father, I want to implement a national fitness program at the border. I don't know if it's feasible?" It's too difficult to cope with the parental assessment, Ruan Bai behaved for a while, and couldn't help but change the topic.

Ruan Bai's various ideas have always been wild and unconstrained, and he always thinks of it as soon as he comes out, but he can often put it into practice, and the practical results are usually unexpectedly good.Look at him, in less than a year, he hasn't even walked out of Shunyang Pass, but the "running dogs" under his hands have spread all over Dazhou.

This kind of rhythm makes the aristocratic class who have always sought stability very uncomfortable.For example, when King Pingxi first came to Shunyang Pass, Ruan Bai's career outside was named Bailifang.But even if there is only one Bailifang, it was distributed nationwide at that time.As long as the economy is prosperous, there are either Bailifang stores or consignment outlets.

And now King Pingxi has been here for nearly three months, and Ruan Bai was busy in the middle, but there was only one winery in the capital, but in just three months, seven or eight wineries have been opened. .Even souvenir shops have opened several.Along with the chain operation of local product stores, the express delivery business has gradually spread out, and several fixed routes from the place of production to the place of sale have been formed.

As far as King Pingxi knows, Ruan Bai and his wife are working on a raw material processing factory...

The improvement of the above-mentioned life of ordinary people is obvious.He doesn't know the specific changes in other places, but here at Shunyang Pass, he has always noticed it.

Last year the Huns came in, and after fleeing, the population of Shunyang Pass must have decreased a lot without looking at the local chronicles.But the lives of ordinary people are getting better and better.Although they still feel grief for the lost relatives, the hopeful look for the future cannot be hidden from others.

It's not that he doesn't want to persuade Ruan Bai, don't be too showy, if you have any ideas, just do it slowly.But looking at such a change, he couldn't say it.Forget it, anyway, it's just such a child, and he did good things. He is also a prince after all, and he can always protect people.

He is not too surprised to hear Ruan Bai's plan now: "Tell me about it."

"Hmm. It's mainly because of the people at the border. Didn't they capture a lot of Huns? Last year, I heard that the Huns were only five or six people. If they touched a village, no one in the village would resist. , let the Huns rob them of all their belongings..." Throughout the history of human development, there have been countless massacres.But except for a few cases, did the massacred people really have no resistance at all?

Even if they are faced with strictly trained enemy soldiers with butcher knives in their hands, is it true that as ordinary people, they can only be passively slaughtered and cannot do anything else?

The blood of the nation has really disappeared, and what is left is only a group of submissive quail?

of course not.People can change, and such things as courage and blood, even if they are not usually shown, can be stimulated when facing threats to themselves and their relatives and friends.

Not long after the battle that just ended, who was the first one to swing a knife at the Huns?Yun Gu.

Last year, when Ruan Bai met Yun Gu for the first time, she was still a slave of the Huns, and she even worked desperately for the Huns in order to protect herself.After a winter in Huangyi, the other girls followed Liniang to Xishan City, but she built an adobe house and waited alone for her relatives who had fled.She is not just waiting, helping and organizing the villagers to work and exercise together.

And Yun Gu is only in her 20s, and she is still an age that can be called a little girl in modern times.What a little girl can do, other people can't?

What Ruan Bai said at the beginning had some logic, but the more he went on, the confusion in his words became more and more: "...It's not that the enemy is too cruel, nor is it that the soldiers of the Zhou people are not brave enough. This has to do with being defensive. It’s the same, the common people just need to master a certain ability to protect themselves.” Moreover, group activities can easily generate group consciousness, and unity is always the greatest strength.

After hearing Ruan Bai's rambling talk, King Pingxi reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "This plan is good, but according to Father's opinion, you don't need to go out of your way to carry it out."

"Huh?" Ruan Bai didn't understand.

"The people may be ignorant, but they are not stupid. This time the Huns came as well, but the villagers did not suffer any substantial losses. On the contrary, they can get a lot of money because of killing the enemy and catching the enemy. It is beneficial Needless to say, people will naturally implement it.

And in fact, your national fitness plan has already been implemented by Yun Gu and the others.They can run every day, learn boxing, and make their own bows and arrows... If Xiao Er is interested, he can let Cao Xu know and ask him to send someone to teach those villagers some martial arts every once in a while.Martial arts in the army are simple, but I am not afraid that I will fail to learn them. "

Ruan Bai listened to King Pingxi's words, and nodded ignorantly: "As long as it is beneficial, as long as people see the benefits, people will do it?" It seems very reasonable.

King Pingxi saw Ruan Bai looking up at the sky, his eyes diverged, he smiled and didn't talk to him again, turned around and went into the bedroom, and saw his own son who had been beaten into a pig's head, sleeping in the dark with his big fat in his arms.

Midsummer is over, and I don't feel it outside in the sun, but it's still a bit cold when I get inside.

Fatty didn't dislike Chu Hao's hug, and obediently lay down on the bed. When he saw King Pingxi coming in, he looked up at him, and then lay down again.

King Pingxi looked at his son and raised his hand to tuck the corner of the quilt.The brat is really tired this time.When he heard the number of Chu Hao's kills written in the final battle report, he suspected that it was a fake.It's too exaggerated, he almost killed Xiao Yiqian by himself!This does not include the various supplies he touched back, especially the large number of horses.

He also figured out about Fang Yu.A mixed blood, although he claims to be from the Zhou Dynasty, but the other half is from the Khan of the Huns, and he is a real master.If such a person is placed in the army, I am afraid that no matter how big his heart is, he will not dare.How to arrange it is a bit embarrassing.

When Chu Hao opened his eyes and saw King Pingxi, he was startled: "Father." These days, his confidence in his martial arts has been blown to the ground.Obviously on the battlefield, as long as he is careful, it is not impossible to fight in and out.As soon as he bumped into a real master, it was as if he had made it up by himself.Especially his father, who is too cruel.

"Yeah. Erlang is still young. Even if you two hit it off, you can't be so frivolous. You should just show affection and stop being polite. The so-called husband and wife respect each other like guests. You have to respect him, and you can't lie to him just because he is young. , and him..." King Pingxi became furious as he spoke, "At first I wanted to wait another two years, but since you are already husband and wife, you two have to get married as soon as possible. "

If he told his father honestly that he and Ruan Bai were not married yet, the conclusion would be that he would have to wait another two years before marrying his second brother; The second brother is married!The price is just a beating, anyway, his father has already beaten him.

Then it will be wrong!

The wound in the morning, after half a day, all the bruises have floated up, and the pig's face looks very fishy no matter what expression it makes, even if it doesn't make any expression, it's not pleasing to the eye anywhere.

This was the first time King Pingxi was disappointed with his stupid son, and he sighed: "Rest well, Dad will return to Xijing tomorrow. Things on your side have been straightened out. I think I want to stay in Shunyang Pass, or Go back to Xijing. After thinking about it, write a letter and come back, and Dad will arrange it for you."

"Understood." Chu Hao looked at King Pingxi's back, and when he stepped out of the door, he opened his mouth and called out, "Father, I'm sorry." Because of his relationship, their team may be extinct.His marriage to Ruan Bai will inevitably implicate the palace and be ridiculed by those so-called gentry.

King Pingxi understood what Chu Hao meant, and scolded with a smile: "Idiot!"

The Chu family has a firm foothold, does it depend on themselves?The clan is one.He has no descendants, and all the children of the Chu family are their children.He can even raise a girl from his wife's natal family as his own daughter, so doesn't he have the heart to accept one or two children from his own clan?

As for those so-called scholar-bureaucrats, they were never fools.Just like what he said to Ruan Bai just now, outsiders only see benefits.As long as they can benefit from being close to the Chu family, they won't care whether Chu Hao married a man or a pig.

In the following time, the entire Shunyang Pass fell into a state of calm.It seemed that the previous war had exhausted all the energy, and the only busy place seemed to be the medical hall.

It's just that under this calm, various undercurrents are constantly surging.

After King Pingxi left, this undercurrent became apparent.Even Ruan Bai, who was "healing" at the post station, felt that impetuousness.

However, God obviously couldn't understand Ruan Bai being so "leisure", and he and Chu Hao were directly responsible for escorting the Hungarian prince to the capital with a single order.

Ruan Bai even forgot that his job is actually a courier.It's all because the subordinates are too capable, so they don't need him to do it himself, so they can only be idle and mess around.

The post soldiers didn't know that they were studying hard and making progress every day, and they were beaten up in their hearts by their own post officers. They looked at Ruan Bai with various complex expressions.

This order is not normal, everyone knows it.

Although the post station is responsible for transporting materials, the Hun prince is still alive and definitely not included in this kind of "materials".

To deal with such high-value prisoners, under normal circumstances, they are not escorted by local soldiers, such as Chu Hao; they are directly dispatched from the capital to Shunyang Pass, and after picking up the goods/the prince of the Huns, they will Escorted to the capital.

For the Shunyangguan side, as long as they hand over the goods/Huntian prince to the imperial army, they have already completed the task.What happens after that has nothing to do with them.

It is taken for granted that such a high-end trade activity has nothing to do with a small post like Ruan Bai.Besides, even if he wanted to deliver the goods, he was only responsible for delivering them to Leyang Station, which was thirty miles away, or Guancheng, which was ten miles away.

Tang Yan and the others obviously knew the news, and they all came to greet Ruan Bai with smiles on their faces: "Master Ruan, this time Tang and the others are going back to Beijing together with the help of your lord."

To be honest, if the family members were not in the capital, they would be really reluctant to leave.Even though it was a frontier place, their food was not bad, even better than in the capital.The key is that there are Ruan Bai and King Yueze here, and the two together are worth the entire Ministry of Industry... No, it is much stronger than the Ministry of Industry.Many things they have never heard of.In the past, what exquisite craftsmanship and superb techniques they emphasized, besides being more delicate and durable, is there any other effect on the final product?No!

They never thought that there would be a tool that could directly allow people to see into the distance, just like a fairy method.They are even more proud of the role those terrible potions played in the war.

Ruan Bai was right.Their inaction, their vegetarian diet, is the greatest crime.And the vast majority of people are not as broad-minded as Ruan Bai and King Yue Ze. They found good things and did not hide them, but patiently explained everything to them.

It's just that they obviously can't stay here forever.The purpose of their coming is to examine the performance of stirrups and horseshoes in actual combat.Now that the war is over, of course they have to go back.How can they not be surprised to be able to go on the same road with Ruan Bai and extend the time to ask Ruan Bai for advice?

Besides, they knew the attitude of some people above towards Ruan Bai.In their view, this obviously unreasonable order is almost a clear indication that Ruan Bai will go to Beijing to take up a post.

Maybe Ruan Bai could become their colleague.

Maybe Ruan Bai could become a member of the Ministry of Industry.

Well, as long as it is not snatched away by Li Shangshu of the household department.But facing Li Shangshu, they really have no confidence.Not long ago, even Yushitai was poached.Among the various departments in the imperial court, Yushitai can be regarded as the most desireless, and the various funds of their Ministry of Industry are still controlled by the Ministry of Households.Can your boss handle it?No need to think about it, I feel that there is no chance of winning.You must know that Ruan Bai had an abacus when he handed over the things in the capital.Before they came out, the household department had already been popularized.Li Shangshu also has a golden abacus and a jade abacus.

Ruan Bai faced several people whose faces changed from sad to happy, and didn't want to know what they were thinking at all.Of course, it's not that he didn't expect to be left behind after going to the capital, after all, this order is too mysterious.

In fact, he doesn't mind being a city resident, but Shunyang Pass will always be his rear area.He has already set up a grass-roots team, and it is certainly impossible to hand it over to others.Moreover, compared to the capital city, he prefers Xijing.There is no way, he obviously has to be a door-to-door son-in-law for the rest of his life. Chu Hao's base camp is in Xijing, so he can't live in two places, right?

But it's too early to say anything now, and it's not his turn to say anything.In his opinion, the dynasty of the Great Zhou Dynasty was poor and backward, and the court was poor and corrupt, so being a civil servant didn't do much good.Anyway, he is such a small grassroots, how many do not have.The big deal is that the situation is not right, so I quit my job and go home and focus on making money.Maybe he can study hybrid rice... Cough, he is still not smart enough, but he can travel to other places, maybe he will discover some potatoes and corn?

The world is so big, I want to see it!

Tang Yan and the others didn't know that Ruan Bai was in a daze, and his mind had already run out of Dazhou and rushed to the world. Seeing that Ruan Bai hadn't said a word for a long time, they thought the child was still shocked by the news, and they probably also thought of the stakes behind it.

They put themselves in Ruan Bai's position and thought about it, and found that it was easy to understand that Ruan Bai was reluctant to leave Shunyang Pass.

Here, although he is just a small postman, does anyone in Shunyang Pass dare to offend him?not a single one.

Moreover, Shunyang Pass is becoming prosperous at a very rapid speed.Even during the war, the number of merchants here is not less than.Of course, these merchants are not here to do business, but to deliver supplies.The amount, quality and price of the food and medicines raised are enough to make the officials in charge of this line feel ashamed.

Now that the war has just stopped, normal transactions have begun in the market.Even the nearby villagers took things out to set up stalls.

Even if Ruan Bai is in Shunyang Pass, relying on these merchants, what can he not buy?

Thinking about it this way, it seems that the opportunity to go to the capital, which is a one-step opportunity for others, is not a good thing for Ruan Bai?

Ruan Bai was distracted all the way, and he didn't even know when Tang Yan and the others left.

The time given by the superior was very tight, and Ruan Bai still had time to be in a daze, so Tang Yan and the others had to hurry back to pack their bags, and by the way, they had to pack that "acclimatized" Master Zhang together.In addition, the most important thing is that although during the entire war, they were either burning glass or mixing potions, they still had to write memorials about stirrups and horseshoes, so they had to hurry to collect data and try to dig out more money.

King Pingxi beats people really hard, and he is well versed in the skills of beating people.Chu Hao lay in bed for two days, and finally he could barely see his face. His body was extremely sore, but he didn't hurt his muscles or bones at all.This is also the result of Ruan Bai pushing the medicinal wine for him.

Therefore, as a master, Chu Hao went to work in a carriage.He had to arrange the training plan for a period of time in the future, and since Ruan Bai was leaving, he had to arrange someone to be in charge of the logistics.Most importantly, he had to determine who would go with him and who would stay.

Escorting the great prince of the Huns will obviously not be a smooth journey.The people he brought with him along the way must be good hands, but not too many people, otherwise the charges of disturbing the people will be charged immediately by the group of civil servants who are full and have nothing to do.

But if he took all the masters away, if no one could subdue the remaining ones, they would soon become a mess.Moreover, his interests in Shunyang Pass cannot be guaranteed.Regardless of his status, it is certain that people will leave the tea.While these people are usually easy to clean up, this one is disgusting.

In the post station, after Ruan Bai came back to his senses, he also began to arrange things seriously.

Who will take care of the post station for the time being, who to contact if something happens, and the family's livestock... the key is the third child's family.He guessed that he might not come back after this trip, and he didn't know if the third child would like to go with him.But he still has a contradiction.The third child, they are not pet dogs, real city life, will they adapt?

Ruan Bai sat cross-legged on the ground with a serious expression.

Four fat dogs squatted in front of him, all a head taller than him.Probably because he felt that sitting like this was a bit crowded, Xiao Pang sat directly next to Ruan Bai, and coquettishly put his big head directly on Ruan Bai's lap.

Ruan Bai patted the dog's head, feeling very sad in his heart: "The third child, the fourth child, the big fat, the little fat, Chu Hao and I are leaving tomorrow."

The third child tilted his head, wondering if he understood: "Huh?"

"Are you going to go with me, or go back to the grassland?" Ruan Bai felt his face heat up, it turned out that Xiaopang raised his head and licked his face several times in a row.

Big Fatty also came over, licked the other side of his face, and pushed him with fat paws, as if to comfort him: "Huh?"

Ruan Bai sniffled, and finally couldn't hold back, and cried loudly holding two fat papers: "Big...fat...fat, I can't bear to...uh...uh...uh...can't...you...uh... ..."

Why hiccup?

Who is Big Fatty?The fat and the fat looked at each other and tilted their heads.

After Chu Hao arranged things, when he came back, the house was cold and the stove was cold, and the lights were not even turned on.

When Xu Liu and the others heard Ruan Bai's cry, they ran away.The adult of their family is still a child, and this made him leave his hometown like this...

Ruan Bai lay down on the ground, curled into a ball, hiccupping continuously: "...uh...hao...uh...brother...uh...help...uh!" Why did he hiccup for so long, hiccup My chest hurts.Tried everything, nothing worked, all liars!

"Pfft." Chu Hao hurriedly scooped up the man from the ground, and while lighting the lamp, he saw that Ruan Bai was covered with strands of dog hair, "Why did you hiccup while playing with the dog?"

Ma Da!Laozi is so uncomfortable, Hun Dan still makes sarcastic remarks!Also puff!Poof what poof, fart?

"Hmph!" Big Dog Chu, wait until I stop hiccupping, I want you to look good!

Chu Hao pinched Ruan Bai up and down, looking at his red eyes, he was very pitiful, bowed his head and kissed: "Okay, what's the matter?"

Ruan Bai turned his head and buried his chest: "I want to send the third child back to the grassland." It's so sad to think about it!

"Eh? No more hiccups."

Chu Hao stared at Ruan Bai: "Send it back?"

The author has something to say: Xiaobai · Ergou (⊙︿⊙): Say, Nimeng and him are still with me!

Persimmon·Big Dog (～￣▽￣)～: Of course I am with me, let’s go, take Nimeng to hunt!

Big fat & little fat (⊙_⊙)? : Huh?
