The Great Seminary

Chapter 80 The Storm Ends
A group of monks who have successfully practiced advanced Taoist techniques can definitely not be just any random person.

Although Zhang Gui had never fought with the children of the Shuanghu Rong family before.

But he had already found out that the Rong family's signature martial arts technique was called "Tianchi Rulei Sword".

It is a sword-controlling technique of the soul.

In this way, it is self-evident who was killed in Mushroom Valley.

It doesn’t really matter who was killed; what matters is that one of them escaped.

This made Zhang Gui unable to sleep or eat, and he felt that it was better to be still than to move. In the next few days, he did not go to Mushroom Valley again.

Just stay in Zhihai Village and wait and see what happens.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the butterfly's wings thousands of miles away finally flapped.

The Yuanshan Empire's Emperor Changsheng Tiemu sent a large army to gather at Yanhan Pass, causing a shock to the world!

Things that were once so important now seem as insignificant as a blade of grass.

Zhang Gui took the opportunity to return to Pingyang Town by land in a dignified manner.

On the way, I found that "Wangbei Village" had returned to peace as if nothing had happened.

The Charity Society was escorting new teams of young and strong slaves.

The other farms purchased by the Shuanghu Rong family from the Pingyang Zhang family also began to operate.

At this time, the cold wind in Siyang County was still biting.

But a large number of farmers appeared in the fields.

Zhang Gui returned to his home in Youyufang, Pingyang Town, thoughtfully.

My mother, aunt and cousins ​​are not at home.

He didn't bring his key, nor did he jump over the wall into the yard as usual.

Instead, he strolled around the streets looking for idle neighbors and started chatting with them.

The incident of forcibly killing the Shuanghu Rong family's worshiper in the street on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month completely changed the impression of Zhang Gui among the old neighbors who had watched him grow up since childhood.

Although he was doubly polite in his greeting, there was a clear sense of distance.

But in the eyes of young people, Zhang Gui has become an idol among idols.

Even Zhang Jiuqing, known as the 'Pingyang Pride', cannot compare to him.

After all, Zhang Jiuqing won the first place and the top prize again, and his future is limitless.

The young man who lives in the fishy market town, idles around all day and earns less than one or two taels of silver a month cannot be seen or imagined.

But Zhang Gui, dressed in the uniform of a military officer, took pleasure in settling scores in front of the most powerful official in the clan, the "Sushifang".

Beat anyone if you want to, kill anyone if you want to.

In the end, there was no trouble aftermath. It really was a strong evil spirit and had great power!
"Gui Ge, not Gui Sir, ah no no, now I should call you Jiugui Dudu..."

"Don't talk about these nonsense, it's best if you still call me Gui Ge.

They are all quite old.

Don't just play games blindly, do something legitimate to make a living.

A few days ago, I said that I would recruit you to serve as soldiers in the militia just as a joke.

Swords have no eyes, wars are merciless.

You are all children of my mother's old neighbors. If anything goes wrong, I can't afford it.

such.

In a few days, I plan to open a shop and let my mother run it, so she won’t have to work so hard.

If you are willing to come over then, I will accept them all.

Whether you can get rich depends on your own efforts.

But I can guarantee that I can get four or five taels of silver a month for shoes, no more, no less."

The group of young men surrounding Zhang Gui cheered upon hearing this.

"I'm going, I'm going, brother Gui, I'm going!";
"And me, and me, oh yeah, and my eldest brother has nothing to do either.

Can you go too, brother Gui? ";
"Brother Gui, I want to join the militia and become a high-ranking official like you in the future, okay?"

The old neighbors who lived nearby didn't want to talk to Zhang Gui much, for fear of getting into trouble.

But it's good to hear it.

The younger generation who had nothing to do immediately lit up their eyes and opened their mouths enthusiastically.
"Tsk tsk tsk, being an official is different.

There's a saying that goes, 'When one person succeeds, the whole family prospers.' And Gui Ge is a kind man, so he must be right."

The afternoon sky was cloudless and the sun was shining brightly.

The light shone brightly on Zhang Gui's eight little white teeth that had just been exposed.
“Aunt Jinzi, you’re welcome.

"Where's Da Jin? Why isn't he home? Did he go out drinking?"

The neighbor lady smiled and said, "Well, he's not like you, an official holding a seal.

No one can control it except the emperor.

This year is different from previous years. Isn’t there a war?

The elders in the tribe said that since it was a big war, more food would be consumed.

Three days ago, I gathered all the farm laborers like your brother Dajin and sent them to work in the fields with their servants and farmhands.

The time to go home is getting later and later.

This is after selling many farms to the Rong family.

Otherwise, I would have to supervise all night long."

The most important strategic materials during war are food and fodder.

That's why there is the famous saying "Before the troops move, the food and fodder must go first".

But 'starting a war today and working hard to farm and store food tomorrow' is undoubtedly a joke.

But Zhang Gui had experienced many live dramas in his previous life where "slogans were more powerful than reality, and the significance of the performance far exceeded its real significance."

I didn't think it was surprising.

Instead, I realized that the period I had anticipated, where 'stability overrides everything', had finally arrived.

"For at least three to five months now, the war between Song, Ming and Yuanshan has evolved from a mobilization phase to a regular, fierce battle.

Even if the Shuanghu Rong family finds out something fishy about me, they will never act rashly.

The general public always looks at problems with conspiracy theories and does not like to delve into the truth.

The little shit I did could turn into,
The successful emperor's inner court and the imperial merchants came into armed conflict with the military officials in the southern political circle who mainly advocated peace.

Was this a deterrent act by the Emperor?
Or was it a warning from the Southern bureaucracy to the emperor;

Or is it that someone wants to disrupt the current situation and plot a rebellion?

Gee tut.

If the adults in the Shuanghu Rong family had any common sense, they would be fine even if the head of the family was killed by me.

Now, the funeral will be kept secret.”

Thinking of this, a sincere smile appeared on Zhang Gui's lips.

The stone in my heart was also put down.

During the war, the situation changed rapidly.

In addition, both his own strength and the forces he operates overseas are in a period of rapid expansion.

A few months later, both the extraordinary powers were promoted to Class C.

It is still necessary to completely transform the one thousand new soldiers of the True Dragon Kingdom from slaves into qualified soldiers.

Then they were all refined into single stone corpse soldiers, forming ten special military units of 100 people.

Dealing with the Rong family in Shuanghu will become much easier.

After getting the news and making a new judgment, Zhang Gui left immediately without getting disappointed.

Instead, he still patiently accompanied his neighbors to imagine the future for a long time.

Until he saw the figure of my mother coming from the direction of the fish market pier, he waved his hand and said:

"My mother closed her stall early today and is coming back from the dock.

Hey brothers, I haven't seen my mother for a few days and I miss her very much.

I won’t chat with you anymore.

Forgive me, forgive me."

This was said in a polite and courteous manner, and although everyone was in the mood for conversation, they didn't want to say much.

We had to leave reluctantly.

Zhang Gui strode towards Yang Duojie.
