My days as a landlord in Gotham

(one)

After dinner, Li Lei sent Jason to go to rest early. The reason was that children need to sleep more to grow their body. This dissatisfied Jason who planned to know the new tenant immediately.

After arranging Jason to sleep, Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi chatted while drinking tea in the living room on the second floor, waiting for the arrival of the new tenant.

What Li Lei and Hiroshi Hamada were talking about was to seize control of the Gotham branch of S.H.I.E.L.D., or at least to become an influential voice in the branch.

While the two were discussing, the antique Bulova grandfather clock that Li Lei newly bought rang, reminding Li Lei that it was midnight.

At the same time, there was a knock on the door.

Li Lei opened the door, and the tenant who came this time was still a Chinese, but a Chinese wearing ancient clothes.

Li Lei is not a history expert, but fortunately, there are many people who promote Hanfu, Tangfu and Mingfu on social media, so Li Lei still has a little impression of ancient costumes.

The ancient costume of this person in front of him can be sure that it is definitely not Hanfu or Mingfu. It is a bit similar to Tangfu but lacks the magnificence and free and easy of Tangfu, but it has a taste of elegance.

When Li Lei looked at him, the man immediately bowed and said, "The student is Wu Yong. Today I heard that the store has a room for rent, so I came to visit one or two, and I hope the store will take it in."

Although Li Lei's history is not particularly good, he is still a class representative of history subjects in high school, and he relied on history to get a lot of points in the college entrance examination.

In addition, Li Lei is quite interested in ancient Chinese novels, especially the four great classics.

Hearing that the person's name was Wu Yong, Li Lei immediately asked, "May I ask you, is Mr. Wu Yong, the wise and multi-star of Liangshan?"

"I didn't expect the student's humble name to be known by the store."

Wu Yong was a little embarrassed but did not deny it.

"I never thought that the store owner would have heard about my Shuibo Liangshan. Could it be that the name of my Liangshan village has spread to this country?"

"I only learned about Liangshan Village from a few books. This is a place tens of thousands of miles away from the Great Song Dynasty. It is estimated that others don't know much about Liangshan."

Li Lei hurriedly explained.

Li Lei guessed that the entire United States, that is, those few people who are still interested in Chinese culture, knew about Liangshan, right?

After all, Modern Huaxia knew that there might still be people in Liangshanzhai, but they might not know Wu Yong, these lesser-known Liangshan heroes.

Although Wu Yong is not as popular among readers as Wu Song, Lin Chong, Li Kui and others, but Wu Yong played a very important role in Liangshanzhai.

It is true that Liangshanzhai's combat effectiveness is indeed very strong, but if it is really head-to-head, Li Lei does not think that Liangshanzhai can withstand the Song army's strong attack.

On the one hand, there are formal soldiers with formal organization and special training, and on the other hand, they are just mobs, and their combat effectiveness can be easily distinguished.

However, Liang Shanzhai was able to occupy Shuibo Liangshan for so long. In addition to occupying the geographical advantage, it was largely due to Wu Yong's dispatching around, using limited troops to annihilate the vital forces of the officers and soldiers, and finally even caused the officers and soldiers to flee from Liangshan.

If it wasn't for Song Jiang's insistence on surrendering and being used by the Song Dynasty to fight Fang La to the death, Li Lei even felt that Liang Shanzhai might have the ability to replace the Song Dynasty after a few more years of development.

Of course, Wu Yong is not a military strategist, but he is definitely a competent counselor.

Li Lei still admires this kind of strategist who can play tricks to perfection.

Li Lei performed a junior ceremony and let Wu Yong enter the room, "I am lucky to be able to see the gentleman's demeanor today."

In fact, Li Lei's ancient etiquette is not standard at all, which is a bit ridiculous in Wu Yong's eyes.

But Wu Yong also knew that this place was not the same place as the Song Dynasty he lived in, and he was still willing to greet him with the etiquette of the Song Dynasty, which showed that he was still full of sincerity.

Therefore, Wu Yong did not argue with Li Lei about his disrespect, but walked into the room following Li Lei's guidance.

As soon as Wu Yong walked into this room, a great sense of disobedience hit his senses and feelings.

The extravagant woolen fabric was put on the ground and trampled on, and the soft but extremely warm thing was only used for cooking, and the stove that was lit at one point... Especially when the switch was pressed, a figure came out, He spoke words that he could not understand at all.

Wu Yong felt that he had come to a world that he didn't understand at all, and he began to wonder if the person who lobbied him to go out to visit the mountains and rivers was really kind?

It's a pity that Li Lei didn't understand Wu Yong's intentions. He thought that Wu Yong was a little tired from the long-distance travel. After all, from the nearly thousand-year Song Dynasty to the present United States, Li Lei felt that the distance in space and time was quite tiring.

Li Lei took Wu Yong to see the bedroom, and specially explained how to use the bathroom equipment.

Although Li Lei's explanation was a bit long-winded, at least Wu Yong listened to everything.

It's just that Wu Yong was shocked while listening, and finally digested Li Lei's words.

After Li Lei left, Wu Yong tested the shower immediately.

When he saw the warm and cold water falling from the shower, he felt that his expression must be in line with the standard style of astonishment.

Wu Yong can swear that this is the most luxurious and incomprehensible place he has ever seen.

Wu Yong felt that the old emperor might not have enjoyed the instant hot water and the fluffy and comfortable bed.

After Wu Yong took a shower, he changed into the pajamas prepared by Li Lei.

Although these clothes don't have the patterns of his own clothes that represent his Confucian status, they are comfortable and convenient.

Wu Yong began to think, what is the red tape?

Or is it easier to live better?

When Wu Yong woke up the next day, he found that Li Lei had prepared breakfast.

Li Lei planned to let Wu Yong try a Western-style breakfast on the first day, so Li Lei prepared fried eggs, fried bacon, fruit salad, and the staple food was toast with jam and milk.

Wu Yong has never seen Western-style breakfast, but he can still recognize eggs and meat, and he also knows that the flour for making bread is made of wheat.

While savoring his breakfast, Wu Yong marveled at the natural treasures of this world.

You must know that as a senior member of Liangshanzhai, most of the time I still eat porridge and vegetables, and occasionally I can eat some fish and eggs as my welfare.

As for eating large pieces of meat and drinking in large bowls, those are only very rare things.

But here, meat and eggs don't seem to be particularly rare foods. Even the bread is made of very fine flour, and the salads and jams are all made of vegetables and fruits. It is definitely not for filling the stomach. And vaguely made.

Never tire of eating fine food, never tire of fine food, that is the highest food standard pursued by the ancestors, but I didn't expect it to be an ordinary breakfast for ordinary people here.

Wu Yong couldn't help sighing: "I don't know when my Chinese people's breakfast will be so rich.

If there is that day, I will die without regret. "

Regarding the Liangshan Peasant Uprising Army, the historians of course affirmed their rebellious spirit, but some people accused them of destroying the productivity of the Song Dynasty, which caused the Song Dynasty to lack confidence when facing the Xixia, Khitan and Jin dynasties.

However, Li Lei felt that the early goal of the Liangshan uprising army was very simple, to be able to fill their stomachs while keeping the poor from starving to death.

For farming civilization, filling the stomach is the simplest, most basic, but also the most difficult and noblest goal.

In fact, although the Chinese civilization has survived several times of almost genocide, it has never really had a full stomach. Even Kang Yongqian relied on potatoes to prevent the people from starving to death so easily.

The person who really solved the problem of Chinese people's full stomach should be credited to the old Mr. Yuan Longping. It is really Mr. Yuan Longping who invented hybrid rice that really made the Chinese people full.

Li Lei felt that if it was the feudal dynasty, Yuan Longping's status would definitely be raised to the same status as Confucius, and the people would definitely enshrine Mr. Yuan as a god and build a shrine.

So when Li Lei heard Wu Yong sigh like this, he could only sigh.

After all, although the farming technology of the Song Dynasty was leading at the same time, it was a world of difference compared to modern times.

Coupled with the high concentration of land, this will inevitably lead to the lack of food for ordinary farmers.

It is a pity that as long as it is in the feudal era, there is no way to solve this problem.

After all, the emperor is the representative of the interests of the feudal landlords, no matter how wise and powerful he is, he will never castrate himself.

Even if he really had a knife to wield a knife from the palace, the landlord class would definitely put the emperor into the [-]th hell, and then change another emperor to consolidate their interests.

Li Lei explained to Wu Yong the origin of this homestay system at the dinner table, and at the same time popularized the brief history of the Song Dynasty to Wu Yong.

When Wu Yong heard that the dignified Song Dynasty was forced to cross south by a barbarian regime and captured two emperors, Wu Yong was furious and scolded: "Those ministers Qiu Ba are really not human!

They didn't know that the emperor humiliated his ministers to death, and they actually let Song Dynasty fall to this point! "

Li Lei complained silently in his heart that the courtiers and scholars of the Song Dynasty were still considered to have a backbone. At least after the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed, there were still [-] students who committed suicide by jumping into the sea and dying for the country.

By the end of the Ming Dynasty, how many scholars were still martyred for the Ming Dynasty?

Except for Emperor Chongzhen who was hanged on the old crooked neck tree, didn't the rest turn around and kneel and lick the invaders?

However, a few scholars who wanted to enter the history books decided to die for their country after deliberation, but those who sank in the pool thought the water was cold, and those who hanged themselves felt their hair was too itchy... So they did not die for their country in the end, and then praised the new dynasty.

It's just that when I dreamed back at midnight, I lamented that I didn't work hard enough to enter the history books.

"Brother Li, if you have the audacity to call your Excellency that way, brother, may I ask if you can save the Song Dynasty from the troubled times?"

Wu Yongdao.

"There is a method, but it is not suitable for you."

Li Lei shook his head and said.

Since Chinese civilization is a farming civilization society, Chinese civilization is a conservative civilization.

However, farming civilization requires huge land to support it, but if the territory is not expanded, Chinese civilization will easily repeat history again and again.

In particular, the Song Dynasty was in a period of contraction in the history of China. If the Song Dynasty had not adopted a policy of suppressing business, then the Song Dynasty estimated that the country would die earlier.

As far as the Song Dynasty's national policy of emphasizing literature and suppressing military affairs and the military strategic layout of strong branches and weak branches, Li Lei is not optimistic that the Song Dynasty will have the strength to fight against Xixia or Khitan.

Moreover, the Song Dynasty was also a very miserable dynasty. Not only did it not have Hetao, the only grazing area in China that could raise horses to support cavalry at that time, but also because of the loss of the Sixteen States of Yanyun, the Song Dynasty opened up.

As long as the northern invaders work a little harder, they can hit the city of Bianliang in minutes. How can you let the Song Dynasty have the courage to launch a war abroad?

Although Wu Yong wanted to ask more questions, Li Lei changed the subject.

After all, according to the development of history, the Southern Song Dynasty also insisted on resisting the Mongolian army for so many years, and it has worked very hard.

If the Song Dynasty deviated from the direction of development due to his own guidance and the country died early, then Li Lei could be regarded as a historical sinner.

Seeing that Li Lei was not interested in continuing this topic, Wu Yong also followed Li Lei to talk about Gotham City's customs and customs very winkingly.
