Happy trip to the Tang Dynasty
Chapter 156
Five years passed in a flash.
The annexation of land in the north has become more and more serious, and the farmers who lost their land have all become refugees.
Lin Ada from Pingding Village is one of them.
The family really can't get rid of the pot. The wife and children have been starving for two days.He discussed with several strong young men in the same situation in the village, and decided to go to the official road to intercept and kill a few wealthy Shang masters, and then find a mountain to be the king of the mountain!
"Aren't you afraid of being suppressed by the government?" Someone asked weakly.
"Damn it! If the government doesn't suppress it, can we survive? As long as we can live a few days of eating big pieces of meat and drinking heavily, even death is worth it!"
Everyone burst into applause.
The next day, they really waited until a small caravan passed by. The people in the caravan were well dressed and looked rich.What's more, on a truck pulled by a donkey in the caravan, there was a young man lying down, drinking and eating pork knuckles!
The smell of meat and wine seduced all the poor ghosts who were lying in ambush while singing, so they swallowed a big mouthful of saliva, and the false fire in their stomachs burned even more.Holding the hoe and pitchfork in his hand, he looked at Lin Ada.Lin Ada gritted his teeth:
"on!"
Dozens of villagers rushed to the small caravan with only ten people.The young man on the donkey cart calmly took a sip of his wine and smiled softly:
"Business is here."
These dozens of villagers were all knocked down by this young man with a bamboo stick.Lin Ada took the lead and was taken care of. The young man sat on him to prevent him from escaping.The others surrounded him, neither daring to come up to save others, nor willing to just run back.
The young man raised his neck and poured himself another sip of wine, and then yelled at the people who looked like a few quail behind him: "Whose family do these belong to? Come and claim them!"
So Lin Ada heard an excited voice: "Brother! I'm the second son! I'm here to pick you up to enjoy your blessings!"
Second son?Didn't he fail to survive two years ago and went out to escape famine?I heard that he died outside, but...
The young man moved his buttocks, Lin Ada got up and looked at the person carefully, it was indeed his younger brother Lin Aer, dressed like a dog, and seemed to be well-developed.
As a result, his younger brother told him that he was still a farmer in Lingnan.But even a farmer can eat polished rice and wear good clothes there.He also married a younger sister-in-law who worked in a textile workshop and earned more than him every month.
Lin A'er persuaded the folks in Pingding Village to go to Lingnan with him.Some people don't believe it at all, thinking that he is lying: South of the Five Ridges is a deserted and barren land, how could it be so good?But more people who couldn't make it through still chose to take risks with him, including Lin Ada's family. He believed that his brother would not harm him.
So they set off to Lingnan with the help of a group of beggar gang disciples, and they provided all the food, clothing, housing and transportation along the way, which made the villagers of Pingding Village believe Lin A'er's words again.
After climbing over many mountains and finally reaching Lingnan, the road suddenly became wide and flat. The villagers changed into four-wheeled carriages and drove on the cement road, watching the factories, farmland, workshops and cleanliness on both sides of the road constantly receding. In a tidy village, I just feel that my eyes are not enough, and my wide mouth has never been closed.
Lin Aer dragged them to Chunzhou.This is a new town under construction, and its prosperity is naturally far less than that of Yazhou, Guangzhou and Quanzhou, which are already very mature, but for the villagers of Pingding Village, this is already a very prosperous big city up.What shocked them even more was that after they got out of the car, they were told that they had been given a place to stay.
There is even a free house to live in, and it is a clean and tidy brick house!Goodness, what's on that window?Is it a shiny gem?How can there be such a large gemstone on the window! ?
On the third day, Lin Ada and his younger brother went to report to the farm together, doing the same job he used to do: farming, but here, instead of crops, he planted cotton and sugar cane.His wife, on the other hand, went to a textile factory to attend female worker training.His young son was sent to a local kindergarten, where he received free lunch with milk and eggs every day.
The gentlemen here never leave people to work more, and when the time comes, they must leave work.Within a few days, Lin Ada developed the habit of listening to the newspaper on the side of the road for a while before going home.
"Lingnan Daily", formerly known as "Yazhou Daily", is a very popular and authoritative newspaper in the local area. Because there are not many literate people, there are people who read the newspaper for passers-by at a fixed time and place every day.
What was in the newspaper today?
Following the development of the coal mine, Lord Ye Qinghou, the God of Wealth, once again cooperated with Nanzhao Wang Geluofeng to jointly develop the Taihe Iron Mine.Ge Luofeng is also a ruthless person. After hearing that there is a rich iron mine called Taihe Iron Mine under his feet, without saying a word, he immediately demolished half of his Nanzhao Palace and gave it to Ye Qinghou to build an ironworks .
The northern vassals and towns were completely separated from the rule of the Tang Dynasty. Shi Siming proclaimed himself emperor, and the country was named Dayan, which was called the Pseudo-Yan by the Tang Dynasty.The border frictions between the two countries continued. Almost all the patriots in the Tang Dynasty fought on the border. However, inside the Tang Dynasty, there were singing and dancing, sensuality, treacherous officials, and corruption.Tang Xuanzong was not affected by the Anshi Rebellion, and he firmly believed that he was the real son of heaven, and still dreamed of his dream of going to the kingdom of heaven and being congratulated by all nations.
Lin Ada listened to the newspaper reading for ten minutes, and returned home full of enthusiasm.At dinner he tried to show off his knowledge to his wife, and it turned out that she knew more than he did.It turned out that in the textile factory, people were working while listening to newspapers and broadcasting.
At the end of the month, counting the lucrative wages and listening to his son babbling and reading poems, Lin Ada felt that coming to Lingnan was the most correct decision he had made in his life.
And there are many, many people like him.Muli and the others dumped cheap food and cloth to the hinterland of the Central Plains without any morals, and at the same time stole a large number of people from the hinterland, and rotted the foundation of the Tang Dynasty.
The so-called national thief is nothing more than that.
Prince Xiang's Mansion in Yazhou.
"Even Cang Yun accepted my offering, but Tiance's stubborn huskies refused to accept it?"
Li Huang didn't feel that he had scolded himself just now.He paced back and forth anxiously: "They have been cut off by the fatuous court for three months, has Li Chengen counted them? How can he accept me?"
At the same time, in Tiance Mansion.
Li Chengen stood outside the Palace of the King of Qin, looking to the south.Zhu Jianqiu stepped forward and said to Li Cheng'en: "Mansion Master, some Tibetan sword disciples have sent some carts of gold and silver outside, saying that King Xiang sent them as offerings to Tiance Mansion as his disciples."
"Go back." Li Chengen said lightly.
"But they also said," Zhu Jianqiu hesitated for a moment, and then added, "They also said that if we can accept King Xiang's offering, then they will appease the refugees within a hundred miles of Beiman Mountain."
Refugees, even around Luoyang and around the Son of Heaven, there have already begun to be refugees.Is Datang really exhausted?
Li Chengen looked around.The nearby Tiance guards all looked pale, they hadn't had a full meal for a long time.When they heard that King Xiang's offering was coming, all of them couldn't help showing hope.
This idiot prince who once caused chaos in Tiance Mansion has now become Tiance's hope.
Li Chengen closed his eyes in pain, and asked Zhu Jianqiu, "How is the people in Lingnan?"
"According to reports from the Tianfeng Camp, the original land of the Southern Barbarians, now Haiqingheyan, the people are rich, the roads do not pick up relics, and the houses are not closed at night. It can be called the rule of Great Harmony."
"If one day, King Xiang and the emperor meet in battle, how should we deal with ourselves? If we continue to protect the emperor, we will block the way for the people of the world to survive, and it is unrighteous; but if we switch to King Xiang, we will Ashamed of the heroic souls of Lingyan Pavilion who have served the Li Tang royal family for generations, it is disloyalty. Between disloyalty and injustice, how do you tell me to choose?"
"What to choose?"
Suddenly, a voice came from under the steps of King Qin's Hall.But Li Huang really couldn't stand Li Chengen's mother-in-law, so he directly used the candle dragon palace to travel thousands of miles to scold people.Behind him was Luo Feng, who was worried about following, and the messenger who was left behind because he couldn't catch up with the two of them.
"I said, are you, Li Chengen, a man? Look, everyone is starving and skinny, and you're still thinking about these nonsense things!"
Li Chengen stopped his gaze on Luo Feng.To be honest, Luo Feng's reputation among the people is really bad.In the past, when King Xiang was a bastard, Luo Feng was rumored to be a traitor who sold himself for glory, but now that King Xiang is promising, he has become a demon who seduces the Lord again.Mu Li and the others published a large number of scriptures to justify Luo Feng's name, but the effect was not great.
It seems that the grasp of public opinion is still not strong enough.
Li Huang blocked Li Chengen's sight with one step, and his intention to protect Luo Feng was very obvious.Li Chengen withdrew his gaze, and said respectfully to Li Huang: "Then what does King Xiang want Tiance Mansion to do?"
"You don't have to do anything, you just need to eat, sleep and sleep every day. When I came here, I couldn't help but want to ask: I was wondering, what if I don't have the surname Li or what? You don't accept my offerings. , Do you treat me as an outsider?"
"His Royal Highness, although you belong to the clan, you are not the Crown Prince after all."
"Everyone knows this, but does it have anything to do with whether you accept my offering?"
"His Royal Highness, if we accept your offering, it means that we, Tiance, are on the same boat as you. If you seize the throne in the future, we will have to help you. You don't know this!"
Li Chengen was finally driven mad by Li Huang's low IQ.When Li Huang heard it, he suddenly realized: "So you are worried about this. What's so good about the throne, I didn't want it in the first place."
Just as Li Chengen breathed a sigh of relief, Li Huang went on to say:
"However, since you are so worried, let me prove to you that I can handle it without your help."
After that, he turned and left.Luo Feng smiled apologetically at Li Chengen and the others, and then left.
Li Chengen was a little overwhelmed, and asked Zhu Jianqiu, "What did King Xiang mean just now?"
Zhu Jianqiu was also a little uncertain: "He doesn't want to... usurp the throne..."
……
"Usurp the throne! Ask Tiance Mansion to accept some offerings, but the demand is so high!?" Mu Li's voice in Prince Xiang Mansion's voice instantly rose an octave.
"All the words have been said, did I say the time has come?" Li Huang asked eagerly.
"Go! We must go!" Next to him, Ye Qinghou said viciously, "We need more land, more resources, and more people! These Central Plains are all there!"
"Don't act like a Japanese devil!" Mu Li gave Ye Qinghou a disgusted look, then turned his head and asked Li Mi: "What does General Li think?"
Li Mi, who has learned artillery technology in Lingnan for ten years, has now completely transformed into the artillery captain, cupped his hands and said: "As long as my Tianwei artillery is around, the world will be invincible."
"But this time we are facing the soldiers and civilians of the Tang Dynasty, so don't kill more."
"It doesn't matter. On the next road, we will release words of heart attack first, so that the children along the way will sing it. When the hearts of the people are shaken, we will attack the city."
"Oh? What kind of offensive words?"
"Welcome King Xiang, welcome King Xiang, King Xiang will not pay for food when he comes."
"..."
