Chapter 24 Lunch

Yun Zheng believes that no matter how successful or frustrated he is in life, he cannot ignore the good intentions of others. Perhaps these good intentions are the only benchmark that shows whether he is successful as a person.

This has nothing to do with wealth, wisdom, and status.

When he came to the Song Dynasty, what he lacked most was the care of others. When he hugged Yun Er and trembled against the whole world, he knew that doing so would not work.

That's why there was Bacon, and later Lu Qingqing. If you don't have a home, make a home. My parents couldn't make it, so they could only imagine in their brains that they had never met their parents. Yun Er's parents didn't exist, so the two brothers

Together they concocted a perfect image of their parents. Yun Zheng himself was embarrassed to say it, but Yun Er simply combined the image of his parents with that of Yun Da.

Having parents requires an almost perfect teacher. Mr. Peng Li's upright and upright character is very suitable. Although Lu Qingyuan is not bad, Yun Zheng thinks that his feelings are mixed with too many other things. Without Mr. Peng Li,

The feelings are pure.

The entire Jiazi Battalion was dispatched, and they formed a column and quietly entered the mountain.

Today is actually not a good day to go into the mountains. Heavy rainstorms can easily cause mudslides and landslides, but the people in Jiaziying are used to accepting Yun Zheng's orders, whether they are good or bad.

Since the general is going to the mountain, it is necessary to enter the mountain. Zhou Tong just asked one more question, but Liang Ji and Peng Jiu looked at him like a fool. In the minds of these two brothers, the general was going to the mountain.

There is no need to question it, just follow it. As long as you walk with the Lord in front, it is not impossible to walk through mountains of swords and seas of fire.

"General, is it really wise for us to go into the mountains like this?" Zhou Tong asked this sentence despite the contemptuous looks of others.

Yun Zheng sniffed. He cried so much today that none of his facial features were normal. Only now did he realize that crying is actually a very energy-consuming thing.

"It's unwise, even stupid, but my order has been issued. What do you think is the problem?" Yun Zheng looked at Zhou Tong and asked.

Zhou Tong wiped the rain off his face and said helplessly: "You are the general. Naturally, you have the final say in everything here. I am your subordinate and I can only follow you."

Yun Zheng nodded and said, "That's right. I have heard a saying before that it is a soldier's bounden duty to obey orders. Before you become a general, you still need to work hard to get closer to this truth."

This sentence immediately made Zhou Tong interested. He followed Yun Zheng and asked, "Aren't you worried that I will steal your position? After all, I am making rapid progress and I will catch up with you sooner or later."

Yun Zheng smiled and said: "Then hurry up. If you adjust your ambition a little higher, I will be even happier. Only if you all become the generals of an army can I have enough people to do my own thing."

"Rebellion?" Zhou Tong stopped and asked.

"Bullshit rebellion, we have to fight it until everyone thinks that rebellion is a very boring thing. When I was very young, when I was reading history books, I discovered that rebellion is actually the most boring thing, except to destroy the country.

In addition to making things worse, there is no benefit at all. Chen Sheng, this is the case with the Wu Guang Uprising, and the same is true with the Green Forest Red Eyebrow Uprising. People who use the name of crusade against the faint king actually do not want to benefit the people. They want to be the emperor themselves.

Go and actively rebel. As long as there is rebellion, you will find that the most unlucky people are the people.

Cao Cao said it well. Without him in the world, I don’t know how many people would be emperors and kings. No disaster would be as terrible as the numerous princes. Zhou Tong, I don’t actually have much ambition. I just want to live happily.

Freehand, whoever doesn't make me happy, I will make him sad. If I can kill some bastards who like to be emperors, my life will be even more perfect."

When Yun Zheng said these words, he suddenly felt comfortable all over his body. This is the feeling of telling the truth. It is very practical, very comfortable, and very stupid. Such heartfelt words must be spoken less in the future.

Zhou Tong curled his lips and said: "If you want to be a loyal minister, how can you put your own feelings first? Shouldn't you put the will of the official family first?"

Yun Zheng simply stopped and looked at Zhou Tong and said: "Do you think people like me will simply worship a certain person? Or will they blindly regard other people's will as their own? I am a unique person in the world. This

The only thing in this world that can make me bend over is friendship, as for other things, just smile."

"Can I be the second one?" Zhou Tong asked with a smile, "I think it's very enjoyable to do this."

"You are the third one, Yun Er is the second one, just a little bit worse than me."

The rain kept falling, and the army was marching in the rain. Because of the silence, the entire army wearing oilskin raincoats looked very strange. Occasionally, when they encountered people walking in the heavy rain, they either got into the woods or knelt down in the mud.

Put your head on your knees, not daring to look at this silent and suffocating army...

When Bao Zheng came to Dujiangyan, except for a few veterans guarding the barracks, Su Xun, an adult in the army, was commanding a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people to rest and repair the damaged areas of Dujiangyan. The heavy rain the day before yesterday, the embankment

Many of the stones have become loose and need to be re-reinforced.

This is a place of abundance!

Lao Bao, who has been a people-friendly official for many years, can see the difference here at first sight. Wealthy military camps are not uncommon in the Song Dynasty. At least the Japanese military camps in Tokyo are very wealthy. They occupy the best places in the capital.

You can do a lot of business. The largest pig and sheep trading in Bianliang City in Tokyo is to support the Japanese army. This business can also be done by others. The laws of the Song Dynasty do not stipulate that only those who support the Japanese army can do this. However, in the whole of Tokyo, only those who support the Japanese army can do this.

If one trades, no other businessman can beat the Japanese army.

Bao Zheng knew how many people had died secretly, but it was difficult to attack the Cao family. The Privy Council, the empress, and the emperor's face had to be taken care of. The most important thing was that the Cao family really had a gold medal to avoid death.

That thing was passed down from the ancestors. Cao Bin had great achievements and surrendered military power. The Zhao and Song royal families believed that as long as the Cao family did not rebel, nothing was unforgivable. Bao Zheng had warned the Japanese army countless times, but they could do it every time.

They just found a scapegoat and killed one person to save their lives. They also claimed that the Japanese army had more than 50,000 people, enough for the Kaifeng Prefecture to kill.

Lao Bao and his entourage walked on the dry military field, laughing and stamping on this flat open space. This place should be used frequently. It was covered with a layer of river sand and there was no trace of accumulation.

When I looked around, I realized that the entire school military field was high in the middle and low on the surrounding sides. There was no way to retain water.

Some women and children were carrying river sand on their backs to fill in the school's military field, and some children were still lying on the ground to check whether their paving was smooth. Everyone was very attentive.

Everyone here has their own things to do. Some are feeding horses, some are feeding sheep, and some are feeding pigs. The oldest old woman is also feeding chickens with a bowl of shriveled millet.

The camp was extremely clean. Lao Bao was sure that the open space in the palace was not as clean as here. The doors and windows of the barracks had just been painted to prevent termites. The humid and hot weather was the best place for those things to breed.

After bypassing the military camp, we finally found some young men. Their work was very tiring, but they seemed to be in good spirits. This was a brick-making workshop. Many strong men were making bricks with their shirts off, and their strong bodies were covered with paste.

After getting some ideas, everyone was laughing and joking with their mouths wide open. From time to time, they were scolded by some old men and urged to work.

When the young daughter-in-law came to deliver food, she would be teased by everyone but not obscenely. Watching such a group of people working in an orderly manner, Lao Bao found that his gloomy mood seemed to have improved.

Someone was ringing the bell. It was already noon, and the military camp became lively. Su Xun, who hurried back, invited Lao Bao to have a meal with him. Lao Bao refused Su Xun's invitation to have dinner in the officers' dining hall and insisted on taking his servants to learn.

While waiting in line, I chatted with the veterans in front of me and behind me, and watched everyone's reactions.

Whether your life is going well or not just depends on how energetic you are. Some women even wear mourning hats on their heads and hold small children in their hands while they wait for the food to be served. There is not much sadness on their faces, and the children are chirping even more.

She would play around until she was yelled at by Lao Jun before hugging her mother's legs and hiding her face.

Lao Bao never expected that he would be able to eat meat in the canteen where the sergeants, women and children were. It was indeed meat, a spoonful of oily meat, the rice was also polished, and a large spoonful of vegetables was served with it, and that was today's lunch.

Su Xun, who was following Lao Bao, smiled and said, "I'm making my lord laugh. You came so suddenly, so you can only eat these poor meals. Please forgive me for any rudeness."

Lao Bao looked at the food on his plate and asked doubtfully: "Mingyun, tell me honestly, was today's meal specially cooked because I came here, or is it just like this on weekdays? Such meals have surpassed those of wealthy people in the Song Dynasty.

I don’t believe you can have such a good meal in Jiaziying.”

Su Xun smiled and said: "Today's lunch is just a normal meal. To be honest, I asked about it when I took office in the military camp. The general didn't want to explain, so he just threw the account book to me and ignored me. I have read it.

After checking the account books, it was confirmed that this was how they ate on weekdays, and they would eat even more abundantly during the New Year.

The general said that money is not saved by talking, but earned. For more than a year, Jiaziying not only participated in suppressing bandits, but also made a living. The general took everyone on a trip to Qingtang

, Xixia has gained a lot of money, so it can fully support such a meal. I heard that Mr. Ming still has five thousand guan of silver from Jiaziying."

Bao Zheng took out a stack of jiaozi from his sleeve and put it in Su Xun's hand and said: "Five thousand jiaozi, the money has been paid, remember to show me the account book, I also want to see why Jiaziying is so stunned.

Eat meat!” (To be continued)
