Go to ancient times and engage in construction

When the sun was setting, Zheng Yuming and Huo Sizhong rode two white horses and slowly returned to the valley. It was relatively early today, so Zheng Yuming rode away in no hurry.

Among the things Ulsan Lord bestowed to Zheng Chu and Zheng Chu, these four horses were the most favored by Zheng Chu and Zheng Chu, but they favored them all. They were a little disappointed after seeing the horses.The horses in the south are generally shorter and thinner than the horses in the north, and the horses are half a head shorter than the grassland horses in the north.Also because the horse was relatively short, Wei Qing and Huo Sizhong, two short boys, could ride it.

Prairie horses in the south are like Rolls-Royce among horses. In the entire Dalseong area, only Ulsan Jun uses grassland horses. If Zheng and Chu want to ride a real tall and mighty horse, one is not qualified, and the other is There is nowhere to buy money.Horses are very delicate animals. They need to eat concentrated feed, so they are not easy to feed. It is even more difficult to transport them to the south for long distances. In addition, the main function of horses is military equipment. The vassal states that produce horses strictly control the export of horses.

Therefore, horses at this time are very precious to people. Owning a horse is like owning a BMW in the 21st century. Except for the aristocracy, other small businessmen and commoners can only look up to those who have horses.

Although Nanbu Village has changed a lot to outsiders, in the eyes of Zheng Yuming, the whole village is still poor and backward.The so-called streets in the village are naturally formed because the wharf connects to the Dacheng dirt road, and the villagers' houses on both sides of the village street are crooked and uneven.

While looking at the village, Zheng Yuming silently pondered the future development prospects of the village. When he caught sight of Yu Kui's winery, he couldn't help being taken aback.In Zheng Yuming's heart, Yu Kui is a very dedicated wine owner. He opens the door early in the morning every day. When Zheng Yuming returns to the valley every day, he never sees the wine shop closing. Kui always stands at the gate of the winery to attract guests.Because the consumption of alcohol is relatively high, there are not too many luxury consumers in Nanbu Village. Every time Zheng Yuming passes by, two-thirds of the times he sees Yu Kui at the gate to solicit customers.Today, not only did Yu Kui not see customers at the gate of the winery, but General Tie was guarding the gate of the winery. This is really a strange phenomenon.

After leaving the village and going to the dirt road, Zheng Yuming and Huo Sizhong speeded up their horses and ran quickly, and within ten minutes they reached the bottom of the gap passage.The terrain from the crevice channel to the foot of the mountain has been leveled, and you can climb up slowly on horseback.Many surrounding villagers already know that there is a passage to enter the valley, because the valley has now become a private domain, and the villagers dare not enter the crevice passage at will. In addition, the crevice passage has been equipped with wooden doors and guarded by slaves. Some villagers enter after being warned , the villagers who were curious about the valley immediately stopped their curiosity, and the punishment for trespassing on the nobles' private land was also very heavy in Daqin.

Although he knew that there would be no curious villagers trying to enter the gap, Zheng Yuming habitually watched the next week before throwing his horse into the gap.The white-flowered horse ran a few steps in the passage, and Zheng Yuming reined in the horse's reins.

"Who are you?"

Not far from the crevice passage, a man wearing a blue dark coat, a high crown on his head, and a sword on his waist stood quietly in the middle of the passageway with his head bowed.Zheng Yuming moved his hand to his waist, and pressed his fingers on the handle of the pistol. This miniature pistol was not as powerful as Chu Chaohui's, but it was still very sure to knock down a person at close range.

The man in Tsing Yi raised his head, revealing half of his bearded face, but this man was Yu Kui, the owner of Nanbu Village Winery.

"Yu Kui from Chu is willing to serve in front of the two governors." Yu Kui stood upright and bowed to Zheng Yuming.

"Yu Restaurant?" Zheng Yuming was stunned, Yu Kui was waiting here wearing such a dress on a hot day, just to follow him and Chu Chaohui?Could this be the almighty domineering aura of time-travelers, making people in this time and space cry and be their younger brothers?

Zheng Yuming was fighting in his head, whether to accept the younger brother or directly reject the wine shop owner who dared to enter the gap.But the owner of the winery is dressed as an aristocrat, and Yu Kui is an aristocrat?

Zheng Yuming has a natural defense against the nobility in this time and space. This time-traveler, who is deeply educated in modern thought, subconsciously puts the aristocratic ruling class on the opposite side of himself. It is very simple to transform slaves. They have no culture and simple thinking, but the nobility does not. It's the same, educated nobles have their own established ideas, and Yu Kui looks like he intends to enter the valley to work for them. Can such a thoughtful noble let him enter the valley?

"Yu Restaurant, why are you waiting here? Zheng Yuming is in Nanbu every day." Zheng Yuming didn't relax because of Yu Kui's move to defect.

"Yu Kui is a great talent. If he wants to become a follower of the two governors, he must follow the master's family." Yu Kui meant that he wanted to enter the core of the master's family and become a confidant.

"What great talent do you have to convince me?" Zheng Yuming's expression was indifferent, he didn't have much pride in recruiting his younger brother.

"Yu Kui has a pair of sharp eyes, a pair of sensitive ears, and a smart head. With these three things, Yu Kui's judgment is inseparable."

"Can we judge things in the same way as eight or nine?" Zheng Yuming felt that Yu Kui seemed to be bragging.

"Master Zheng, let Yu Kui guess the valley behind the passage." Yu Kui was confident.

"Okay! Say it!" Zheng Yuming shivered, and pressed his fingers on the handle of the pistol even harder.

"The two adults must have a secret in the valley." Yu Kui threw a bomb.

"Yu Restaurant is joking. The valley is the fiefdom of Yu Ming and elder brother. We two brothers don't want outsiders to enter. Many fiefs in Dacheng do this." Zheng Yuming denied it with a bit of a mouth. Yu Kui must be fooled. , See if they don't open the valley to the outside world.

"That's right. The valley is like many other fiefdoms. It doesn't want outsiders to enter. It seems normal." Yu Kui paused when he said this. "But two lords, Wu Da is your sworn elder brother, logically he should be like a blood relative, but he has not been invited into the valley by you once, Yu has observed for a long time, and found that it is not that the lord does not regard Wu Da as a blood relative, so Yu A certain boldly speculated that the secrets in the valley are very special and should not be known to Wu Da. Another guess that caused Yu to speculate is that the adults only want slaves and no servants, obviously because they are afraid that the servants will leave the master’s house and spread the affairs of the master’s family to the outside world.” A domestic servant is a commoner and can leave the master's house, but it is not easy for a commoner to become a nobleman's servant, and domestic servants are basically unwilling to leave the master's house by themselves.

After listening to Yu Kui's analysis, Zheng Yuming remained silent. A gust of mountain wind came through, and Yu Kui's dark clothes were slapped by the mountain wind. This sound awakened Zheng Yuming from his contemplation. If you don't accept it, you can't let him leave the crevice channel just like that.

"Yu Restaurant, please follow me into the valley first." Zheng Yuming made up his mind to throw Yu Kui, a nobleman, to Chu Chaohui for verification. Chu Chaohui was more cruel than him. If he felt that Yu Kui was in danger, Zheng Yuming felt Will not hesitate to let Yu Kui disappear.

"No!" Yu Kui's answer now has the attitude of a disciple.

Zheng Yuming asked Yu Kui and Huo Sizhong to ride a horse together in front, and he followed behind to hold the line.Huo Sizhong was taken care of by Yu Kui in Nanbu, so when he heard that Yu Kui was going to serve the two adults, he was very happy and couldn't help being more affectionate to Yu Kui.

On the way back to the villa, Zheng Yuming happened to meet some slaves who came back from work in the fields. When the slaves saw their master’s horses, they all stood by the side of the road to make way for the master’s horses. I have strengthened my determination to contribute more.

The horses walked to the living area around the villa, just in time for Chu Chaohui to organize the team for the last time before disbanding. The formation training for a few days has achieved some results, and today's team formation is very fast and relatively neat.Yu Kui looked at the assembled slaves with a look of surprise on his face. He remembered that Zheng and Chu bought the slaves in March, just over four months. He was surprised that Chu Chaohui trained the slaves like nobles in such a short period of time. They are as well-mannered as their home soldiers.

In fact, Yu Kui overestimated Chu Chaohui's ability. The current slave soldiers only know how to line up, and they don't understand anything about fighting skills. What Yu Kui sees is just a show.Seeing Yu Kui staring at the slave soldiers intently, Zheng Yuming sighed in his heart, this Yu Kui has seen the biggest secret in the valley, and he cannot win the trust of the two of them, Chu Chaohui will definitely not let Yu Kui leave the valley alive.

"Yu Restaurant, why are you interested in coming to the valley?"

Chu Zhaohui turned around and saw Yu Kui standing beside Zheng Yuming, his eyes narrowed immediately.

"Yu came to do the work of the two of you." Yu Kui bowed to Chu Chaohui calmly.

"What's going on?" Chu Zhaohui asked Zheng Yuming in Mandarin.

"He was waiting for me in the middle of the gap passage, saying that he wanted to join us. I don't know whether to accept him or not. This person has some skills." Zheng Yuming explained Yu Kui's speculation in the passage to Chu Chaohui in detail. listen.

"That's right, I met someone with a smarter brain than Wei Qing." Chu Zhaohui smiled slightly. "Let's go into the yard and talk in detail."

Although Yu Kui was well-informed, he was still shocked when he saw the villa and the courtyard. The courtyard covered with a whole block of stones and the houses with blue bricks and red tiles can be seen in luxurious palaces, but the houses are made of transparent glass. The windows are too extravagant, no wonder Zheng Chu and the others refuse to let outsiders enter the valley, this is to guard against greed.

"Yu Kui! You also saw that the valley is different, so you can join us if you want to, but what can you do for us to reuse?" Chu Zhaohui waited for Wei Qing to close the courtyard door, and immediately asked Yu Kui sharply.

"Yu has the confidence to win the trust of the two adults, so he boldly entered the valley." Facing Chu Zhaohui's stern voice, Yu Kui did not panic, he took out a piece of parchment from his arms and presented it to Chu Zhaohui.

"Wanted order?"

On the parchment was a young man in his twenties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, without a beard.After reading it, Chu Zhaohui handed it to Zheng Yuming. Zheng Yuming took it for a closer look. It was a hunting order issued by Zhang Chu's court to arrest a remnant named Yu Chen.Yu Kui's eyes and eyebrows are somewhat similar to those in the portrait.

"Yu's family is a hereditary aristocrat in Xingdi of Chu State. His family ancestors are upright. Six years ago, he could not tolerate Chu Zuo's doctor Tian Chen. He was framed by this treacherous villain. The whole family was exterminated by the king of Chu. Yu Chen survived because he was hunting in the feudal mountains. In such a difficult situation, I fled to Nanport and survived all the hardships, just thinking that one day I could get revenge."

When Yu Kui, that is, Yu Xuan, talked about his life experience, his face was no longer calm, his emotions became agitated, and his eyes turned red.

"You seek refuge with us just to avenge your own family? How is this possible! We are not as powerful as Lord Ulsan, so you should go to Lord Ulsan."

Zheng Yuming put down the parchment in his hand, and Yu Kui took out this parchment, tantamount to handing over his life to them. Doctor Zuo of Chu State is still Tian Chen, and this arrest warrant is still valid.If Tian Chen knew that Yu Kui was hiding in the southern port of Dacheng, as long as he sent a note to King Wu, Yu Kui would be deported back to Chu immediately. Chu State is stronger than Wu State, and King Wu would not offend him for an insignificant exiled nobleman. powerful neighbors.

"Mr. Ulsan only wants to be a partisan and has no ambitions. His family members are talented but have no vision. Even if Lord Ulsan is willing to take in Yu, Yu will not go to work." Yu Kui spoke very conceited.

"Oh? You don't like Mr. Ulsan, but you like us two powerless overseas people?" Chu Chaohui said with a smile while playing with a dagger in his hand, which was just forged by Da Zhuang. , It can be regarded as a fully tempered weapon, and the dagger is very sharp.

"The two adults seem to be powerless, but in just four months, they suppressed the famous Dacheng green cloth in Daqin, seized the sales market of Dacheng cloth, and even changed the crops of Chu State. Planting, in Yu’s view, seems to be a silent war.” What Yu Kui admires is that Zheng Yuming can easily appease the nobles of Dacheng, and Nanbu cloth has seized the foreign market of Dacheng green cloth without causing production. Dabu nobles protested.

"But how do you think we can avenge you?" Chu Zhaohui stopped smiling, his face was serious, and he looked at Yu Kui with suspicion. Yu Kui should be possessed by a time traveler.

"If things go on like this for Chu, there will be a catastrophe!" Yu Kui did not think that Zheng and Chu had the strength to destroy Chu, but he believed that they were capable of hollowing out Chu. Which prince will this fat piece of Chu fall into the mouth of? He all hopes that he can play a role in overthrowing the royal court of Chu. Yu Kui did not simply think that the Yu family was only exterminated by Tian Chen's frame, but the fatuous King of Chu. the culprit.

"Okay! Yu Xuan! You can join us if you want to. You have to swear that you will not betray the Lord, and you must not urge us to avenge you." Chu Zhaohui has a heart for Yu Kui. It is still modern, and they are all the elite among the elite. It is really a great help to have this person to help.

"My lords! Please continue to call me Yu Kui. If you don't take revenge on your family, I will never restore your original name."

Yu Kui made a salute to Zheng and Chu, and solemnly swore an oath.Zheng and Chu have their first disciples.
