Tang Taizong is my elder brother

Chapter 23 Set up camp
Seeing Chang Sheng smiling back, Wang Yannian sighed in his heart that he was young after all, so he could only shake his head and say, "Then tell me."

"I can't explain clearly in a few words. How about this? Since Uncle Chen doesn't believe what my nephew says, let's make another bet. The bet is not too much for my nephew, just 200 taels of silver. The period is six days. Seeing the results, the two uncles agree with my nephew's point of view, I wonder if Uncle Chen has the guts?"

Before Chen Liang could answer, Li Yuan interrupted and said, "It's just that I have some spare money. Since it's for the relief of the victims, I'll use it to make some money. I'll help my son and bet on him winning." .”

"I bet 20 taels of longevity to win." Sun Simiao stood up for longevity.

"My child has money too. I bet my brother wins, so I'll bet... let's bet ten taels." Ruyi said as she rummaged through her pockets for money.

Chen Liang was also angry, are you all crazy, you actually believe in the nonsense that disasters can make money, good boy, since you don't give up, this old man will play with you and see how you end up, and immediately slapped the table: "Okay! Bet 300 taels!"

Different from Chen Liang's anger, Wang Yannian was more surprised: Are you all so optimistic about this kid? Is it really possible that the locust plague can make money? Is there anything in it that I haven't figured out?
Just as he was thinking, he heard Li Yuan ask from the side: "Is Mr. Wang interested? Do you want to make a bet?"

Mr. Wang thought again and again: "Then I won't disappoint. Since everyone is optimistic about Mr. Xiaolang, I will support Chen Tongshou. I will also press 100 taels."

On Changsheng's side, he asked his father to write the betting contract and both parties signed it, then folded it up and put it in his arms, stood up and bowed his hands to the two adults. "Give it to me by the elders, I dare not say it. Thank you two uncles for giving me the money. My nephew is now leaving with Miracle Doctor Sun."

Wang and Chen looked at each other the same way, and said, "Don't talk too early, little guy, we will see the result in six days. You can do it yourself."

Changsheng smiled and bowed to the ground, "Thank you two uncles for your teaching." He stood up and saluted Li Yuan: "My lord, I'll take a step first."

Li Yuan got up and went to bed: "Wait, I will send you off for my father."

When the two of them left the private room, Li Yuan closed the door and leaned down and said, "My father has already arranged for the servants to buy a batch according to your requirements and send them down the mountain. You and the Taoist priest will go there first and find them there." Your brother, let's talk about any problems at night. Be careful in everything!"

Speaking of the last sentence, Li Yuan squeezed Changsheng's shoulder hard.

Chang Sheng nodded heavily, and followed the crowd downstairs.

As soon as he got out of the restaurant, Chang Sheng told his servant: "Find a carriage, and I will take the carriage with Old Doctor Sun and my younger brother."

The servant's efficiency was extremely high, and in less than a stick of incense, the three of them were already sitting in the carriage and rushed to Longshan.

……

Along the way, Sun Simiao kept wanting to talk about his plan for longevity, but the other party closed his eyes and meditated as soon as he got in the car, so he could only swallow the words in his stomach.

After sitting for a while, he laughed at himself after thinking about it, and said to himself, Sun Simiao, Sun Simiao, once you are old, why are you not as calm as a child when you encounter problems?

He shook his head and put away his thoughts, sitting cross-legged in meditation.

In the afternoon, the carriage finally arrived at the foot of Long Mountain not far from the Duke's Mansion, and the three of them were attracted by the sight as soon as they got off the carriage.

A group of people stood darkly in the open space by the bank of the Si River. The leaders were two teenagers, one in a short robe and a bunt. The one who looked smart and capable was Tang Guogong's eldest son, Li Jixiang, and the other was fifteen or sixteen years old. , with a handsome face, wearing a Tsing Yi long gown, dressed like a government official.

Next to my brother, there was a group of heavily armed soldiers lined up with guns, guarding several carts of supplies piled up behind them.

The two leaders waved their hands excitedly when they saw Changsheng and the others getting off the carriage: "Changsheng is here!"

The three Changsheng walked over and introduced each other.

It turned out that the mother of the young man in Tsing Yi was also from the Li family in Longxi, and she was his distant cousin in terms of relationship. She was 15 years old and now works as a scribe under Li Yuan.

Seeing Changsheng, the young man introduced himself with a smile: "You are the cousin of Changsheng that my uncle mentioned. My name is Fangzi Qiao, and you can call me Qiao."

Chang Sheng also cupped his hands, "Brother Joe, thank you for your hard work."

Jixiang: "We arrived early in the morning. This is Commander Liao, a soldier under my father. He was leading a team of soldiers from the government army to practice nearby. He happened to meet us."

While everyone was not paying attention, he quietly said: "General Liao is under my father's command."

Changsheng thought that this is the case, my father really spent a lot of money, not only to support him, but also secretly sent his subordinates to do things cheaply, not to mention the presence of troops guarding him, so Changsheng felt more at ease.

At a glance, he saw a tall and burly young man standing in front of the queue, and Chang Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Commander Liao, Doctor Sun and I are ordered by the governor of the state to set up camp here and prepare to go up the mountain to collect medicine tomorrow. hinder the actions of the soldiers."

The man clasped his fists in a calm manner and said: "The final general is Liao Zhong, the commander of the deputy captain of the state capital, who was ordered to set up camp here for training, that is, to set up camp here at the same place. In order not to interfere with each other, it is better for us to make unified arrangements. Good." After speaking, afraid that Changsheng would not understand what he meant, he gave a hinting look.

How could Changsheng not know that it was his father who made an excuse and deliberately sent him to help him, so he quickly returned the gift and thanked him repeatedly.

With these soldiers there, no one can afford to make trouble.

The commander nodded, and led his soldiers to start unloading the supplies on the truck, and chose a location to build a barracks.

Changsheng looked at them and silently gave his father a thumbs up in his heart.

Withdrawing his eyes and looking at the black and white group of 'beggars' in front of him, he turned around and asked Ji Xiang: "What's the situation here?"

Jixiang pointed to the group of refugees behind him: "According to your request, choose the healthy ones first, and sell yourself at a low price alone, and ignore the rest today. I have been picking in Dongshi all morning, and all the qualified ones are here. .A total of two hundred and three people. A total of 23 taels of silver."

Changsheng nodded in satisfaction, and looked at the group of yellow, thin, and ragged people leaning together with unease, looking at him with blank and fearful eyes.Asked softly: "Did you tell them what you bought them for?"

"No, my father told me to bring them here, but I won't tell them what I'm doing."

Changsheng knew it well, took two steps forward, found a big stone, stood on it, and said loudly: "My name is Changsheng, I am the third son of Tang Guogong, I bought you with money.

I know that some of you were well-off farmers not long ago, but ran here because of the flood of locusts and no food to eat.Some people may have a craft before, and some people may have read books, but there is only one purpose for you to escape here: to survive!

Doing things for me, I will help you survive, it may be a bit bitter at first, but I guarantee that you will at least not have to sleep in the open every day, eat a meal and be hungry for three days.They can eat well and dress warmly.

That's all I'm saying, if you understand, I'll ask for the last time: Is there anyone who has regretted it now and doesn't want to do it with me here, stand up and return the money to me, and I'll send you back to Dongshi. "

After Changsheng finished speaking, he put his hands on his hips and looked down, and everyone was silent for a while.
