Not to mention the manager of the restaurant, the staff were completely confused.
Even the pedestrians passing by, the old and young men in the capital, had gained a lot of experience. Looking at the friendly Dongchang warriors with smiles on their faces, their eyes widened.
What an anecdote!
Looking at the kind-hearted Dongchang bosses, stall owners, and fans, they walked into restaurants along both sides of the long street, and then...
Those swollen faces had a smile or a smile on their faces, and they politely saluted the restaurant owner with fists in his hands.
Then, he actually spent his money to buy a large number of poultry.
In an uproar.
No one had ever seen this scene before. The shopkeepers of various restaurants suppressed their fear and hurriedly bowed and apologized.
Dongchang actually became reasonable.
The military master from Dongchang actually gave me money when he bought something!
This scene made passers-by on the long street stunned. They gathered together, pointed, and whispered to each other...
In the more than 200 years of history since the capital city was built, this may be the most unbelievable and strange thing, and it really makes Monk Zhang Er scratch his head.
Pedestrians rubbed their heads one after another, witnessing this strange event with bewildered expressions, and noisy discussions could be heard.
"This, this... something big happened!"
Facing the crowd of people in the capital, Shen Lie did not change his expression. He just took out a piece of silk cloth among the chicken feathers flying in the sky and covered his mouth, then raised his legs and walked around a pile of chicken dung.
Look around.
The officials and the people are close to each other, and compliments are endless.
Only then did Shen Lie say with satisfaction: "Look, ahem... how good this is. Isn't this a harmonious atmosphere? Why should we cause so much anger and resentment when things can be solved with money?"
The generals of Zhongdongchang nodded vigorously like chickens pecking at rice, and agreed.
"That's what Mr. Shen said."
You are an imperial envoy, and everything you say is right.
The generals were still a little dissatisfied, and Shen Lie's face darkened again, and he said coldly: "People want face, and trees want bark. You are all martial arts practitioners. How can you bully the people? If you really have the ability to go to Jiubian to join the army, and Wala
After a few head-to-head fights, Shen will respect you as a man!"
The Dongchang generals were stunned, wiping their noses and lowering their heads in embarrassment.
People want face, trees want bark.
There is nothing wrong with what Mr. Shen said.
Seeing the awkward expressions on everyone's face, Shen Lie couldn't help but curl his lips. He thought of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Ming Dynasty who could not be defeated when Li Zicheng led his army to Beijing.
Even the emperor's minions and the factory guards, who were said to have hundreds of thousands of troops, dispersed in a hurry. Only a few kittens or two kittens really stood up to resist.
Not even as loyal as a group of eunuchs.
how so?
The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. I don’t know when it started. The factory guards are fundamentally rotten. The team is filled with all kinds of despicable villains and scoundrels.
It’s time to take care of things!
So Shen Lie scolded him while leading the Dongchang generals to move forward.
He can't control the Jinyiwei, but now that he holds the imperial edict and is the manager of hundreds of households in Dongchang, he naturally wants to take the opportunity to purify the team in Dongchang.
After all, Dongchang is also a regular army with a regular structure. Except for the few eunuchs in charge above, everything from officers to soldiers are drawn from Jinyiwei, Beijing Camp and even the border army.
Can it look like a disciplined force?
Is this okay?
Shen Lie didn't know, but he understood a truth deeply. If the hearts of the people in Dongchang were scattered, it would be difficult to lead this team.
It all depends on people.
The time soon reached noon.
Outside the city gate.
The official road leading in and out of the capital was deserted.
Miserable and miserable.
The locust plague is spreading.
With people in panic, the bustling merchants in the past have become much less numerous.
Even the Beijing garrison at the city gate was weak, holding swords, guns and crossbows one by one, dozing feebly on the city gate tower.
And not far from the city gate, there were some sneaky people in white clothes, blatantly stopping pedestrians and preaching something.
This looks like a cultist who is deceiving the public with his lies.
But the defenders had no intention of taking care of it.
Guarding the city gate is a fat job. Most of the generals and soldiers who can serve as soldiers here are from the Gyeonggi area.
Nowadays, most people’s homes are affected by locust plagues, so who has the thought to do anything wrong?
In total solitude.
A sudden change occurred!
Following the chirping of poultry, a large number of brown-clothed men were seen riding horses and rumbled out of the city gate.
"Dongchang is ordered to conduct an investigation."
"Idle people dodge!"
There was a lot of noise and the rumble of horse hooves.
Pedestrians and merchants passing by all shunned, looking at the iconic brown clothes, the ugly pointed hat, and the fierce-looking Dongchang eagle dog on horseback.
The passers-by lowered their heads in fear, but they all cursed in their hearts.
"spit!"
"lackey!"
WTF!
But amidst the curses, something strange happened. First, a large number of Dongchang fans rushed out, and then they were accompanied by a burst of chirping of poultry.
Pedestrians and merchants hiding on both sides of the road stared dumbfoundedly at the large numbers of poultry chirping, lining up, and rushing out driven by the tough knights.
For a moment, the noise was overwhelming.
Driven by a large number of Dongchang knights, flocks of chickens, ducks and geese chirped and flapped their wings, amidst the flying feathers in the sky.
An army of chickens, ducks and geese croaked and rushed towards a melon field not far away as if they were having fun.
As soon as they saw the locusts in the melon field, the crazy poultry seemed to have seen some delicious food, frantically pecking and scrambling for it...
Some are already feasting, and some are flapping their wings and flying. This scene is really spectacular.
Moreover, more and more poultry are pouring out of the city gate, really like a majestic army, rushing in front and already spreading joy in the farmland.
The ones behind are still rushing out from restaurants, restaurants, and inns.
The chicken flies and the dog jumps.
Pedestrians, merchants, common people, and farmers were all dumbfounded.
Shen Lie, on the other hand, rode a horse and led a group of Dongchang generals out of the city majestically. Looking at this spectacular scene, a bright smile appeared on his heroic face.
Shen Lie laughed out loud, it seemed that his clever plan worked.
After another moment.
Bustling and bustling.
The pedestrians blocking the city gate also came over and looked at the poultry that was having fun in the fields, gathering together and whispering.
"This... a strange move!"
"Which expert came up with this method?"
From being confused at first, to being surprised and then elated, the pedestrians watching on both sides of the road quickly understood the intentions of these people from the East Factory.
Is this an attempt to use a large number of poultry to control the locust plague?
"this……"
The pedestrians were stunned and started talking again.
Everyone has been farming for generations. Except for the poor tenants who lost their land, every household raises a few chickens and ducks.
Of course, in this era, poultry were raised for laying eggs, and only during holidays would one be willing to slaughter one or a few to improve the life of the whole family.
