It is said that after teaching the troublesome guys, the giant followed his master and others to the room upstairs.

The master sat down, and a man with a pale face and a beard said: "Master, what should we do next?" Then he worried and said: "If they find out the true identity of the master, the consequences will be disastrous! I think the master should still do it. Good to go back as soon as possible!"

The giant man's horrible eyes widened, and he said in an angry manner: "I am here, what are you afraid of?"

The pale-faced man hurriedly said: "I am not worried about myself, I am worried about the master! If there is a case, we two will be smashed and we can't atone for our sins!"

The host smiled and said, "Don't worry. No one would have thought that I would come here, so I am very safe."

"But the lord," the pale-skinned man said anxiously, and then realized that he had made a mistake, and quickly said: "No, it's the master. Although the master said something is reasonable, he is afraid that there will be a case! One, this, how can this be good?"

The master said impatiently, "Well, there is no need to discuss this issue!" The pale-skinned man closed his mouth and dared not say anything.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside the door, followed by a knock on the door. The host winked at the pale-skinned man, who knew it, and immediately ran to the door and opened the door. I saw the shopkeeper leading a middle-aged man with good temperament in official clothes standing at the door.

Seeing the door opened, Sun Jing couldn't help but look inside. I saw three people sitting or standing in the room, all dressed in costumes similar to Dongyi's. The one sitting should be the owner, with scars on his face, short beard, and a faint awe-inspiring power; the one standing beside him That, huge stature, a steel needle beard, bald head and hairless, glaring eyes wide open, like a beast from a prehistoric legend, an infinite ferocious aura rushed towards his face, which made people feel terrified; standing at the door This is an ordinary person without any special features.

The shopkeeper bowed and said to the three people in the room: "The three guest officials, this is Master Sun Jingsun. Master Sun heard about the deeds of the three guest officials who did justice and courage, so I came to visit them!"

Sun Jing originally thought that this notification status of the shopkeeper would inevitably move the three Dongyi people and then quickly got up and saluted. But he didn't expect that after the shopkeeper had finished speaking, the three of them would have nothing to say. Sun Jing couldn't help being surprised, and then came to understand: These three people are all Dongyi barbarians, so naturally they don't understand etiquette. And these three barbarians probably don't know who my Sun Jing is. At this point, I was relieved.

At this moment, the sitting barbarian stood up, clasped his fists and said, "I have seen the lord!"

Sun Jing asked in astonishment: "You can speak Chinese?" But as soon as this was said, I felt stupid to ask. If the other party didn't understand Chinese, how could he come to Jiangxia city.

The barbarian nodded and said, "I have learned Chinese since I was a child. Not only Chinese, but also the poetry and songs of your Han Chinese." Sun Jing laughed blankly. Then he said to the shopkeeper and his entourage: "You all retreat." Everyone promised and retreated.

Sun Jing walked into the door until she sat down on the chair in front of the barbarian.

The barbarian also sat down.

Upon seeing this, Sun Jing couldn't help but secretly said: ‘It’s a Dongyi barbarian, I don’t understand etiquette! Thinking like this in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he asked, "Is this strong man from Dongyi?" Here is a brief explanation. In this era, in fact, in Jiangnan, except for the areas where the Han people live near a few large rivers, the rest of the places are actually places where the local Tu people live. The Han regime and the previous Qin regime actually controlled these places. Very limited; in the vast dense forests of the south of the Yangtze River, there are countless tribes inhabited, and these more primitive tribes are all called Dongyi.

The barbarian nodded, clasped his fist and said, "My lord is an official of the Han people. I dare not lie to my lord. I am the leader of a Dongyi tribe. This time I brought my subordinates to Jiangxia. One is that he wants to do business. The local products are very good; the second is to see the world and open your eyes."

Sun Jing thoughtfully nodded, and said: "The heroes are extraordinary, and the heroes are superb. If they can work for my master, they will definitely accomplish a great cause!" Then he smiled and said: "The strong should know that my master is the great Han Wu. King, sitting on the rivers and mountains in the south of the Yangtze River! It is much more promising to serve for my lord than to be a small tribal leader! If you can make military merits, the lord will grant rewards in the future, and the strong men will be among the ranks of my great princes and princes. !"

The barbarian couldn't help showing his heartbeat, and then apologized: "My lord is kind, I have taken it in Xiaxin! It's just that I'm the leader of my clan in the lower body, how can I abandon the clan!"

Seeing that he had rejected herself, Sun Jing couldn't help feeling a little displeased. She secretly said: My dignified minister of Soochow condescends to solicit you, you are so ignorant of exaltation! Really short-sighted barbarians!

At this point, he said coldly: "If that's the case, then forget it." Then he stood up and left. The barbarian did not stand up to see him off, which made Sun Jing even more dissatisfied, cursed secretly, and pushed the door open.

auzw.com The attendants guarding the door and the shopkeeper saw Sun Jing angrily coming out, and hurriedly greeted them. I only heard Sun Jing cursing in an annoyed and contemptuous whisper: "It's a barbarian and a low-level species, I don't know how to promote it!" Then he went straight outside. The entourage hurriedly followed, and the shopkeeper hurriedly sent off.

After a while, the shopkeeper rushed back and saw those Dongyis, complaining a little bit: "Brilliant man, Master Sun Jing personally condescended and condescended to solicit you, why are you so rude! You know, it's such a rude! Your chance of a lifetime! If you can be recommended by Master Sun Jing, you will surely become my Soochow General. He is not a good thing for generations to glorify the generations after he made his military exploits and became an official in the ranks?"

The bald-headed man beside the master couldn't help cursing, "What is his Sun Jing! Don't say Sun Jing, even Sun Jian, we don't take it seriously!"

The shopkeeper was taken aback by surprise.

The master scolded the giant man: "Ruba, don't talk nonsense!" The giant man closed his mouth, but still looked unconvinced. The owner said to the shopkeeper: "Don't be offended by the shopkeeper. I have grown up in the mountains since I was a child. I have never seen the world, I am ignorant, and often talk nonsense. You shouldn't take it seriously."

The shopkeeper gave a dry smile and clasped his fists, saying, "It's nothing. It's just that you can't talk nonsense outside. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will cause trouble!"

The host clasped his fist and thanked him.

The shopkeeper said: "I won't disturb the rest of the guest officers. If you have any needs, you can tell the little second in the shop. Goodbye." Then he nodded slightly at several people and left.

The pale-skinned man hurried over and closed the door. Back in front of the owner, he said with a grateful look: "Fortunately, the Lord Sun Jing is gone, if you keep entangled, you will be in trouble!"

The host smiled.

The pale-faced man folded his fist and asked, "Lord...?" The bald-headed giant shouted angrily: "Li Gun, why do you always forget to call you!" Li Gun? It turns out that these three so-called Dongyi were actually disguised by Chen Lang, Dianwei and Li Dang, and sneaked into Jiangxia as Dongyi merchants. On that day, Chen Lang learned that Sun Jian was preparing to hold a recruitment meeting, so he wanted to take this opportunity to visit Jiang Xia, so he soon changed to Dong Yi and came to Jiang Xia.

Hearing Dianwei's reprimand, Li Dagon smiled embarrassedly, and then muttered in a low voice: "General Dianwei hasn't forgotten his name! I actually called my real name!" Dianwei realized, embarrassed. He patted his bald head and smiled.

Chen Lang said: "You two must pay special attention to you and don't make the same mistake again." The two clasped their fists and promised. Li Gun asked; "Master, what should we do next?"

Chen Lang stood up, walked to the window, looked at the bustling Jiang Xia, and said, "Since we are here to learn about the people's livelihood in Soochow, we will go to the countryside outside the city tomorrow."

Early the next morning, Chen Lang and his team took the goods bought from Dongyi people, except for Jiangxia, and went to the countryside near Jiangxia to sell goods to the people. The villagers near Jiangxia were obviously more generous, and the mountain products that Chen Lang brought were really good, so it didn't take long for the goods that Chen Lang brought to be sold out. This time is probably only around nine o'clock in the morning.

Chen Lang took advantage of the sale of goods to get in touch with the local villagers. While the guards were selling the goods, he sat under the big banyan tree and talked with the local elders.

"Old man, your life is very peaceful!" Chen Lang smiled.

All the elders laughed, and an old man said with gratitude: "Thanks to King Wu, if it weren't for King Wu, we wouldn't be so prosperous!" Another old man said: "Everyone talks about how Luoyang is prosperous. See that Luoyang can't compare to our Jiang Xia!" All the elders agreed.

Chen Lang smiled and said, "I haven't been to Luoyang, and I don't know what it is like." Then he said, "When I came here, I heard that the people of Soochow have their own land, so surely everyone is comfortable with food and clothing, right?"

The old men looked at each other, and a strong old man said, "Although we have no problem with food and clothing, few people have their own land! The land belongs to those gentry lords! Alas!"

The originally cheerful atmosphere suddenly became a little depressed.

Chen Lang took the opportunity to ask, "Why does the land belong to the gentry? Didn’t King Wu distribute the land to everyone?"

A skinny old man couldn't help but resentfully said: "Wu Wang didn't care about these things!" The short old man next to him sighed, and said: "Wu Wang, he won't take care of these little things, right!"
