Chapter 16: Flying slave laughs as soon as he comes out

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan did not treat the guards. They had just trained for more than a year, and it was impossible to expect them to be like the guards. They had to train slowly in the future and tell them how to do it.

The old man now looked at Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan becoming more and more pleasing to the eyes. The two little guys cooperated so well that they were very clear and neat. They waited to grow up a little longer, and there was no problem for the two of them to work together to deal with the guards in the palace.

This is the two swords that are combined into the wall? It seems that the two masters in their family mentioned in Bi Gou’s letter should be one man and one woman, and they teach two apprentices respectively. In this way, those two masters can be said to be pedantics and can do everything.

The two guards were frightened. They still didn't understand the specific thing that happened just now. They saw the young master and the young lady comparing quickly with the old man. The old man stepped back. The young master seemed to have suffered a little injury. He didn't know anything else, it was too fast.

"You two go out and wait outside. I will talk to the old man with Xiaobao." Wang Juan helped Zhang Xiaobao rub the back of his arms and ordered the two guards.

The two guards knew that the little lady was a little dissatisfied with them, so they stepped out embarrassedly, and secretly made up their minds to practice kung fu well. Not to mention going to fight to kill the enemy, at least they must protect the people they should protect. If you encounter any problems in the future, let the little master and the little lady take action, and you will not have to live.

"Grandpa, let's go into the house. It's really amazing. If you have a knife in your hand, Xiaobao and I..."

"You and Xiaobao should use sleeve arrows. No one would have thought that the two young kids, who were eight or nine years old, would hide hidden weapons in their sleeves. They would not be able to guess that you would react so quickly and cooperate so well. Let's talk about what they wanted to do when they came here to come here this time?"

Before Wang Juan could finish his words, the old man praised the two of them. The old man was really satisfied. From the position before the attack just now to the position of the two of them when he retreated, it was always so good, one was the main attacker and the other was the auxiliary.

Wang Juan still smiled sweetly, "Grandpa, we have nothing to do, we just walk around, and we just come to your place after strolling around. When I heard that an old man lives here, I have seen him on the shore. Xiaobao and I thought about talking to the old man, asking about the matter here, and tell Xiaobao his father when we go back."

"Oh, Liuda, then you are really good at wandering around. Come in. Xiaobao's hand just now was really scary. He was surprised and unpredictable. How could his arm do such a move? He has good skills and is not easy to practice, right?"

The old man led two people into the room. The layout of the room was very simple, with a couch, a chair, and a table. There were several small stools next to it, and a small table in front, so there was nothing else.

Zhang Xiaobao shook his arm and felt much better. He would have nothing to do after raising it for another two days. The technique of removing the cobulation was not so easy to use. He sat on the small stool with Wang Juan and said to the old man: "Grandpa, you can't learn this now. You can learn it, but it will cause too much harm to your body and it will hurt you very much. It may leave a root of the disease in the future. This process is extremely difficult."

"Oh? How did you learn how difficult it is?" The old man also understood how much damage the bones would be caused by the movement just now.

"How else can I learn? Grudge my teeth and hold on. At this age, my body is flexible and I can persist. But I can't just play with it when I'm fine. I have to recover for a few days after I use it. I will take medicine after I get back." Zhang Xiaobao explained.

"With that Juanjuan?" the old man asked again.

Wang Juan nodded, "I only know a few simple actions, not as good as Xiaobao, Grandpa, do you feel the tide when you live here? By the sea, when the sea breeze blows, it brings water from the sea. It's always raining here. If you feel the tide, don't live in such a house, live in a bamboo building."

"How come the trend is not trendy? I've been used to it for a long time. Bamboo houses are good, but the people don't have so much time and money to build bamboo houses. They do their work all day to be able to eat. When you come, you will wait for you to help the people live a good life."

The old man also knew this. He could only think about building a bamboo building before. Now he has put his hope on the Zhang family. Bi Gou's letter has already written in detail about the things the Zhang family has done, which seems to be able to manage Luzhou well.

Thinking of this, the old man said again: "The eighteen large ships that you have come here with are really useful. If you transport local goods out, you can sell them more money. I wonder if your family is willing to do this? The land is controlled by Qinzhou. When the goods pass by, the officials there will have to collect the benefits. After selling the goods, the benefits given will be included, and you will not make any money.

On the east is Lianzhou, and in the middle is a strait. A part of Luzhou is cut off. There are mountains there. There are only some mountain people who may not even have household registration. They are not that easy to talk to. If you don’t pass by that narrow place, it will take half a day to go to the wide place of the strait, and half a day to come back.

Moreover, the local people in Lianzhou live similar to those here, and they are a little better. The things here are not worth the money in the past. If you sell salted fish, you can fight in the same sea and others can fight. Why should you buy yours? The caravans traveling far away are the only one with the surname Shen.

It turned out that there were other caravans coming, but later the local officials drove away other caravans and left the ones surnamed Shen, and the days here became more and more difficult."

The old man said it very much. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan listened carefully. The intelligence personnel had already understood some of the general matters. At this time, the old man said that his thoughts became clearer.

"Grandpa, how many mountain people in Luzhou do not have household registration? What do they usually need? Can they get out of the mountains? There is still a lot of empty land here? My family and Juanjuan's family's Yongye fields are given, but there is no one to plant them, and it will be abandoned if they are placed there."

Zhang Xiaobao noticed the mountain. Since he did not have a household registration, it means that the actual population is larger than that of the registered population. Living in the mountain is definitely not as comfortable as the plains. It is simply that the local exploitation was too strong before, and the mountain seemed better.

The old man thought for a while and said, "Isn't it enough for your family to bring nearly a thousand Kaifeng people to come here this time? If the mountain people estimate that there are about two thousand people, and they live in a relatively scattered manner. There are more mountains in Qinzhou. If your family has the ability to pull them down, there are still five or six thousand people.

However, the mountain people usually don’t believe in the people outside. The people are tough and want to use force to pull people down. It’s not possible to rely on the little Hou’s guards, let alone the ones in your family. If they have the skills of you two, you can try it.”

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were very happy when they heard this. It would be fine if there was someone, but it wouldn't matter if they were unwilling to contact each other. If they were tough, they could be summoned to the army. Zhang Zhongkong had a position of attending the army but no soldiers.

Wang Juan said at this time: "Grandpa, do the local people have any relatives outside? How do they convey the message? Is the caravan named Chen? How did the old man contact Grandpa Bi? Go to the official post?"

"Hahaha! The two little kids, as Bi Gou said, are very elves, and they cannot be compared with ordinary little kids. They say they are just walking around. When they say something, they just want to ask the old man if I have a flying slave, right? They are pigeons."

The old man is also a smart man. As soon as Wang Juan said that, he knew what the two of them came to do.

Wang Juan looked at Zhang Xiaobao with a smile, and Zhang Xiaobao nodded, "Sure enough, there are carrier pigeons, grandpa, where did you come from? Can you help us raise some? It is best to teach us how to raise them. We can use the method of hatching poultry to exchange with you."

Zhang Xiaobao also knew the importance of the carrier pigeons. It would be impossible not to show any substantial benefits. He gritted his teeth and was reluctant to take out the method of hatching poultry as an equivalent exchange.

The old man's eyes lit up and hesitated for a moment and said, "Your family is indeed not a long-term thing to do. Hatching is just poultry, but poultry does not lay eggs when holding nests. At that time, a chicken must lay more than ten eggs, and some even twenty eggs less.

It would be much worse for the people to have dozens of eggs and fewer eggs. It would be better to take them out. Although your family has already taken out a lot of things, there are still people who are thinking about the good things. As long as you remember, the emperor will remember what you offer.

When I write a letter to the master's master, I ask, if the master agrees, I will help you train some individuals to raise Feishu. My master is at home in his spare time, and is actually busy repairing Meiguandao and Dayuling. My master's surname is Zhang, and I don't know if the pigeon eggs can be hatched?"

"Zhang Jiuling? Is he back?" Wang Juan suddenly thought of this person and was very happy. Zhang Jiuling's house is not too far from here, so he could ask Zhang Xiaobao's father to write letters to and from now on.

"I'm back, what are the plans for the little girl? Do you want to pay for the repair of those two places?" the old man asked with a smile.

"It must be out. We don't know whether the pigeon can hatch. You can try it. Don't tell me the hatched prescription first. Wait until enough ducks are raised here. Uncle Zhang almost returned to Beijing and asked Uncle Zhang to bring the prescription back."

Zhang Xiaobao changed his mind now.

The old man was stunned, "How do you know that my master can go back?"

"Of course I'll go back to the repaired place. Grandpa, tomorrow, no, I'll send someone to learn how to train and raise pigeons from you. Let me tell you how to count it, and my family will pay for Uncle Zhang to build the road."

Zhang Xiaobao changed the topic and prepared to be bleeding, and used money to exchange methods.

"This is enough to get more than a thousand guan. You can't let your family pay for it. If you find a few smart people, you two should follow me too?" The old man likes two children, who are smart and sensible.

Zhang Xiaobao shook his head, "One thousand guan is too little. My family spent ten thousand guan to let the people who built roads eat better, and also to make Uncle Zhang feel more relaxed. Juanjuan and I can't learn it anymore. We must find clever ones. We will have lunch with our grandfather later. The grandfather wants to appreciate his face."

"I can't get anything from rewards. Bi Gou often talks about you two having dinner in his letters." The old man smiled with relief, touched the heads of the two children, and his face was kind.
