Dahan first prince

In the 19th year of the Han Dynasty, the [-]th year of the Xinyuan Dynasty by Liu Ying, in the winter of October, Chang'an City.

The atmosphere of the new year has not completely dissipated in Chang'an City, and brand new bamboo charms and newly bought door gods are also hung on the door of every household.

But compared to the past few years, this year's "New Year's Day" is undoubtedly a lot lighter.

It is not to say that the situation of "the New Year has no taste of the New Year" appeared in the land of China more than 2000 years in advance;

Instead, the attention of the entire city of Chang'an was directed to Daibei, thousands of miles away.

——War always attracts many people??????
Especially in such a war, the people in Guanzhong who contributed the core backbone are extremely concerned about the outcome of this war.

It was also in this complicated mood full of expectations and worries that He Duosui, the third elder of Hejiazhai, set foot on Chang'an with his old wife and a few grandchildren who were raised by him. the street??????
"Ugh??????"

"I don't know if those boys in the village are safe or not;"

"And that kid Wei Young, I don't know??????"

Just halfway through the exclamation, He Duoxiao felt a tingling pain in his armpit!
Grinning her teeth and turning her head, she saw the old wife looking at He Duoshao full of resentment, and then glanced at the eldest son who was not far away.

"Say less!"

Hearing the old-fashioned reminder, He Duoshu also hurriedly stopped talking;
But in his heart, He Duomi's longing for his grandson He Weiyang also came in waves like a tide.

——Today, the reason why He Duoxiao dragged his family to Chang'an is because the autumn harvest is over;
According to the officials in previous years, He Duomi would take his family to Chang'an and the two cities to buy some supplies for the winter, and wander around these eight streets and nine streets by the way.

Furthermore, the expectation for his grandson He Weiyang made He Duomi unable to sit still at home, and wanted to come to Chang'an to see if he could hear any news.

It can be said that I heard the news,

He Duoxiao was worried that he would really hear the news.

Because He Duomi knew: This battle, the Han family is passively fighting??????
"Old man, old man!"

"Look at my corn?"

"——It's not expensive! It's only forty dollars for one stone!"

While thinking about it, there was a burst of hawking in his ears, which finally brought He Duoshao back to his senses leisurely;

Looking at the boy who was putting his hand in the rice bag, holding up a handful of golden corn, and laughing at himself, He Duoshui couldn't help but subconsciously said, "This year's new rice?"

With that said, He Duomi stepped forward, subconsciously inserted his hand into the rice bag and stretched out, and took out;

Seeing He Duoxiao's behavior, the boy was not annoyed, he just nodded his head and helped He Duoxiao open the rice bag.

"Of course it's new rice!"

"If it's Chen Mi from previous years, the owner wouldn't dare to sell it, would he?"

Following the boy's words, He Duoxiao finally took out a handful of rice grains without any debris from the bottom of the rice bag;
Holding it in the palm of his hand, he turned his left hand into his right hand, and his right hand into his left hand. After repeated times several times, He Duoxiao nodded slowly.

"good;"

"It is indeed new rice."

"Forty dollars is really not expensive."

The low and low words came out, which made the boy even more happy, and hurriedly looked up and down He Duomi, and the old woman who stopped and waited. …

"Did the old man bring a rice bag?"

"I'll serve some for the old man, and the old man will take it home to taste?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as this remark came out, He Duomi finally came back to his senses, shook his head and threw the rice back into the rice bag with a smile.

"My family has a good harvest this year, and there is no shortage of rice."

"—Even if it is missing, there is still a lot of old rice in previous years, which is stored in the rice warehouse at home."

With a light smile, he said a word, and it was rare to see a happy smile on He Duoxiao's face.

In recent years, the lives of the people in Guanzhong, especially the people in Weibei, have undoubtedly been much better.

Stable grain prices and successive years of bumper harvests have enabled the vast majority of farmers who own land in Weibei to accumulate considerable wealth in the past few years.

Take Hejiazhai, where He Duomi lived, as an example, in Weibei, it is not really a big village;
However, since Liu Ying ascended the throne and ordered the Shaofu to monopolize the grain and rice, the lives of the villagers in Hejiazhai have improved significantly!
What used to be only half full can now be [-]% full;

I used to be able to eat [-]% full, but now not only can I eat two full meals a day, I can even see meat from time to time!

As for He Duoxiao, there were already some small wealthy households in the family background, let alone.

——In the spring of last year, He Duoxiao was close to his old house again, and built two houses on the left and right, and set up a family business for his two young sons!
At this moment, the old woman behind He Duoxiao was also full of bags;
The two grandchildren on the side are also holding a hen, planning to go home and raise eggs to eat.

He Duomi is like this, and most of the idlers and lazy people in Hejiazhai have found work.

——Firstly, in the first few years, I helped those widows and old people who were not rich in men in the village to plant land for two years;
Up to this year, it can be regarded as gaining the trust of others, and they have rented more than ten or twenty mu of land from several old and weak households.

With such a large land of tens of acres, if you plant it for a few years and save money for three to five years, you can always give it to yourself and buy [-] to [-] acres of land that really belongs to you.

Once you have land and build a house, you have a family business;
With a family business, it is just around the corner to find a matchmaker to find a marriage and live a good life with a wife and children.

For these changes that took place in the village, He Duoxiao saw all of them.

He Duoshu also knew: the reason why there was such a change in the village was because Shaofu was ordered by the Holy Son of Heaven to completely monopolize the grain market in Guanzhong??????
"Hey, late born;"

Seeing that he didn't buy rice, but he didn't attract the respect of the servants in front of him, and he still had a smiling and kind face. He Duoxiao was probably tired from walking, so he couldn't help but feel interested in chatting.

"Now in this Guanzhong area, no household is short of food, right?"

"Why don't you sell the rice to the Shaofu?"

"——I just found out, the Shaofu is collecting rice at 45 qian per stone this year!"

"It's only fifty cents a stone when you sell it out."

"Your boss, why don't you sell it to the Shaofu for 45 yuan, instead sell it for [-] yuan in this Dongshi?"

Hearing that He Duomi asked about this, a wry smile appeared on the boy's face. …

"Don't dare to hide it from my husband;"

"——My boss, originally the son of a rich family in Lantian, has a big business, but he never bullies the folks in the village;"

"In the years of drought and flood, I will personally bring grain and rice to lend to those orphans, widows, old and weak in the village??????"

Unexpectedly, the boy's words had already been spoken, and He Duoxiao's face suddenly changed!
He looked up and down with gloomy eyes, and then looked warily at the servant in front of him.

"I'm afraid your boss is not a businessman?"

"—The Shaofu doesn't accept rice from merchants, so that's why your boss sells rice at a reduced price in this East Market?"

He Duoxiao couldn't help but snorted when he said the words coldly, and his face was full of contempt.

——All rich households and benevolent people are all fake!

I'm afraid it wasn't a family of merchants in the past, or even Mi Jia, a grain merchant. Now he has no choice but to be suppressed by the Shaofu, so he sells rice in this East Market!
As for what, "bring grain and rice personally, and lend it to the orphans, widows, old and weak in the village", it can't be fooled by He Duoshao's old eyes who see the world's ups and downs.

Grain merchant Mi Jia offered to lend rice to others?

Hey??????
I'm afraid it's nine times out and thirteen out, but I still don't forget to bring a twelve-liter big bucket in and a seven-and-a-half-liter small bucket out??????
Seeing He Duoxiao see through the history of the rice shop, the boy's expression became even more bitter;
Just about to open his mouth to defend, he saw He Duomi's face completely darkened, and he walked forward seriously.

"Late birth!"

"Listen to my advice!"

"—These grain merchants, Mijia, let alone kill one every other, even if they see one and kill one, they will definitely not be wronged!"

"I don't think you are from a merchant, you are also a farmer's son;"

"Listen to my old man's advice: don't help these grain merchants who have no conscience anymore, and do these outrageous things."

"While you are young, it is better than anything else to find a decent business early on, and to be filial to the adults in your family!"

Full of solemn words of persuasion, He Duomi stretched out his hand and slapped the boy on the shoulder hard.

Recalling the scenes in the past years when the people in Guanzhong, especially the people in Hejiazhai, were bullied by those grain merchants Mijia, He Duoshao subconsciously clenched his hands a little bit, which made the boy grin his teeth. stand up.

After being held like this for a long time, the little servant finally broke free from He Duoshao's claw-like powerful palm, but he was not angry, but bowed to He Duosui with a wry smile.

"The boy naturally understands what the old man means."

"But the boy's parents died since he was a child, and he has no relatives at all. He followed the refugees and ran to this border in the middle of the pass."

"At that time, even though there were no wars in Guanzhong, there was really no way out for the kid;"

"It was the owner who took the boy in and gave him a full meal, so that the boy has this way of life??????"

Said with a wry smile, the servant did not forget to turn his head and pointed to the rice shop behind him.

"This rice shop, the kid has been here for ten years;"

"Helping my boss watch the rice shop for ten years, boy, I have seen all the warmth and coldness of human beings."

"—In the early years, the rice shop's business was good, and the owner beat and scolded us repeatedly, and didn't treat us servants as human beings at all."

"In recent years, Shaofu has started to sell rice, and the rice shop is out of business. Instead, the owner has started to ask us how we are, for fear that we will run away again."...

"But no matter what, my master treated me with the kindness of saving my life and rebuilding my life; my master still holds a bond in his hand."

"No matter what, boy, you can't ignore the kindness of the boss??????"

"The old man said, that's the reason, isn't it?"

Listening to the young servant telling these heavy past events in a pretentiously indifferent tone, He Duoshu's gloomy and cold face could not help but let out some sighs and sighs.

He stretched out his hand and patted the boy on the shoulder lightly.

"You kid, you have a conscience."

"Being able to remember your master's kindness is also considered to be such a blessing because your master's ancestors have accumulated virtue."

"Ugh??????"

"Those years of war??????"

As he talked, He Duosuo couldn't help recalling those years, the Kanto that was caught in the flames of war.

——He Duosui himself, his ancestors are from the Kanto region!

At that time, He Duoxiao also had no way out, so he followed Taizu Emperor Gao and became a soldier who ate military rations.

Fortunately, I was lucky, so I survived all these years, although I didn't make great achievements, I still saved a few heads;

After the war was pacified, He Duomi was allowed to move to Guanzhong, and he was given [-] mu of land and a house, and took over his wife and children from his hometown.

He Duomi knew that he was lucky.

There are also many unlucky people who died in those dark years;
There are also many unlucky people, like the boy in front of me, who have no choice but to embark on the road of exile, and in the end, they have to commit themselves to slavery.

"Ugh??????"

"It's also a poor child??????"

With a secret exclamation, He Duoxiao's beauty became more friendly, and he looked away as if talking and laughing, and asked casually: "You boy, where is your ancestral home?"

Hearing the words, the young fellow bowed his head full of shame, but he did not forget to answer: "Boy, he is originally from Danyang."

"Call the word 'Jun' for a single name??????"

"—Jun?"

Seeing that He Duoxiao heard the words, he repeated it in surprise, and when the boy nodded again, he stretched out his hand full of surprise, and touched the boy's body.

"Can you pronounce the word 'Jun'??????"

"I'm afraid, it's not a small family???????"

Thinking so, He Duoxiao couldn't help but nodded, and smiled at the servant in front of him.

"The bones are strong;"

"Do you want to join the army?"

Asking without any warning, it caused the little servant to raise his head suddenly!

Looking at He Duosui's eyes, he was filled with complex emotions composed of apprehension, expectation, and doubt.

Seeing this, He Duosui couldn't help but smile, and raised his eyebrows towards the north as if pointing.

"My eldest grandson is in Yanmen right now, fighting against the damned Huns!"

"If the ancestors bless us and allow our eldest grandson to return safely, he must be at least a corps leader in the future."

"You boy, if you are willing to be a soldier for my grandson, I will go find your employer and buy your body deed to tear it up!"

"——In the future, you don't need to say 'call the character Jun for a single name', you can straighten your back and put your ancestor's surname in front of your name."

"In the future, when you are in the army, you and my grandson share the same hatred, that is a life-and-death friendship;"

"With my grandson taking care of you, it is not difficult for you to marry a wife and have children, and to leave a line of incense for your family, even if you are named a Marquis and pays homage to you?"

Hearing He Duomi's words, the boy fell into a long thought.

After a long time, the boy turned around, took one last look at the rice shop, and finally made up his mind to kneel down in front of He Duoxiao.

"Boy, Shu Jun, from Danyang, have you met the old man??????"

Seeing Shu Jun's reaction like this, He Duoxiao couldn't help but nodded in satisfaction, as if he was about to walk outside the East City.

——He wants to take Xiao Shujun to buy back the paper sale contract;
As for why he did this, perhaps, it is indeed what He Duomo said, or maybe He Duomo is really worried about his grandson, He Weiyang, and wants to buy some psychological comfort??????
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!

"

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, a horse galloped by from outside the city, causing He Duomi to walk to the side of the road quickly!
"The young! The young~"

With a loud cry, the flying cavalry didn't turn around, it just galloped straight along Huayang Street in the direction of Weiyang Palace.

Looking at the back of Feiqi when he left, He Duosui couldn't help but raise his heart.

But only a moment later, there were countless palace people, eunuchs, and servants who were banned from the palace, and walked onto the streets of Chang'an.

And the cheers that filled the sky of Chang'an finally made He Duoxiao completely at ease??????
"Great victory!
"Great victory for Mayi!
"
