Liu Minzhong was also in Tanggu, the one who lost his family, home, family business and one arm during the Qing Dynasty and the war was not in Cangzhou at this time, but actually came to Tanggu alone.

Now standing on the street in a daze, he spontaneously came out to welcome Chen Dexing's triumphant victory among the Tanggu merchants and civilians.

He looked even more depressed now! His thin face was mixed with some scars and a messy and yellow beard. Although he was wearing a Confucian shirt, it was dirty and torn. It seemed that he had not washed or repaired for several months. The boots on his feet were also torn, the big thumb on his left foot was exposed, and the nails on his toes were long and black. I don’t know how many days he had not washed or cut them. His only left hand was leaning on a wooden stick. The smooth oil on the surface of the wooden stick was obviously used for a long time. He was carrying a very shabby leather on his left shoulder, and it seemed that there was nothing inside.

No, it was either as if it was nothing! He left Cangzhou five months ago, and his bag was still bulging at that time, with a few replacement clothes, a few scattered silver, a few books and four treasures of the study.

There was no way for him to leave Cangzhou. His good friend Xu Ziyuan never helped him after leaving Cangzhou. Moreover, there was no news that Xu Ziyuan was Chen Dexing's secretary. Of course, he followed Chen Dexing to the south. This big circle lasted for half a year. Naturally, he didn't care about Liu Minzhong from Cangzhou. Liu Minzhong relied on the two taels of silver given by Xu Ziyuan for several months. After spending it, he sold the goods. Until five months ago, he had no choice but to take the initiative to take out the three cents of Xu Ziyuan's house in Cangzhou and not worth two cents. After getting some silver, he wanted to make some business and make a living. People said that there were more people in Tanggu and there were few grains, and the price of grain was twice as high as Cangzhou. So he bought more than a dozen stones of wheat from Cangzhou and sent it to Tanggu.

Who knew that the wheat had just arrived and encountered a plummeting grain price (it was all caused by Qu Huajie's big short seller). The quality of the wheat transported by Liu Minzhong was again, and it was impossible to sell it for a few dollars. After paying the money for hiring a car and hiring a coolie, there was no more money left. Liu Minzhong lacked a right arm, and it was difficult to find a job to make a living. He wanted to go back to Cangzhou and was homeless. He could only sit in Tanggu. Two months ago, because he couldn't pay the store, he asked someone to blow it out, and then he stayed in the streets. But he couldn't beg for food and couldn't take this face! He was a talented and ambitious Liu Minzhong! How could he go to beg for food...

But I don’t have any way to live in this increasingly prosperous Ming Dynasty!

Liu Minzhong, who had spent all the last copper plate, had no penny on his body, and had no money to exchange for two dollars, was very disappointed at this time. He was full of resentment towards the current magnificent Ming Dynasty. Without the Ming Dynasty and Chen Dexing, there would not be the Battle of Yanyun in Hebei last year. Even if Li Yu rebelled, he would not be the opponent of the Khan, and would definitely be defeated soon. Liu Minzhong is still the third-class Han master, and he has some chances to be a third-class Han official.

Instead of now... I am a first-class man who has no food to eat and is about to starve to death! Is it more important to have a third-class person or a first-class person than whether he has food to eat?

The sound of the two southern accents suddenly rang in the ears of Liu Min, who was a little lost, interrupting his almost unconscious thoughts.

"Thinking about it, it's better to be here in the Ming Dynasty. You can vote for a few hundred cents of charity cards to vote for the parliamentary members. The parliamentary members can also manage the master of Zhishi. We gentry are equivalent to indirectly managing Zhishi and the entire market. We will naturally live a peaceful life and do business with confidence."

"But the rules of the Ming Dynasty were also strict. Although there were no taxes to be collected, whatever could be sold. Anything that could not be sold can be discussed by the parliament, but once the negotiation was completed, there was no room for any room for it. I had a cousin who had a bow. In the first half of the year, smuggled hundreds of kilograms of Nanfen Steel was found. He fined 20,000 yuan and directly revoked the gentry card, and he would not enter the gentry door for life. The bow of the gentry card without the gentry card could not be used as a military sea boat. In fact, he could not drive a sea boat... He had no good business, and now he regretted it so much that he cried all day long."

"That's a few hundred kilograms of Nanfen steel... According to the law, if a sea ship with a capacity of more than 2,000 stone (load) is not approved by the Military and Political Department, the Nanfen steel carried by him every time he goes to sea cannot exceed 50 kilograms of Nanfen steel. This is more than 10 times, but it's a dozen pairs of steel armor! Is this too courageous, right?"

"That's right, he was doing business without capital at sea..."

"No wonder..."

The voices of the two southern merchants' conversation suddenly lowered, as if they were afraid that others would hear their conversation. It seemed that the past of these two people was a little shameful... When Liu Minzhong thought of this, he subconsciously walked a few steps to the side to avoid these two guys who were suspected of being pirates.

"...We have met a good time. After the Ming Dynasty was born for hundreds of years, we finally met our generation. Now we have a good life."

"That's right? There are no Mongolians anymore. The Seminister is riding on us... The grain tax is light, and the imperial grain has been exempted for three years. Now I will pay some local grain taxes. If someone joins the army, he can immediately divide 150 acres of land, or exempt three years of tax exemption! If he makes meritorious service, it will be 300 acres of land! My second brother has now joined the army and is an archer in the army. It would be great if he can win the title."

"My third brother has also joined the army. He is a spearman in the central army and is looking forward to making meritorious contributions in war every day!"

The two old men were talking, probably refugees placed near Tanggu. They had a son at home and could immediately divide 150 acres of land. Now the Ming army has many opportunities to make meritorious and titles. Being a sir and having hundreds of acres of land seems not a big dream in spring and autumn. Therefore, the Ming army was thinking about fighting day and night, and even the military family was looking forward to fighting because military titles were the shortcut to change the fate of soldiers themselves and their families!

Liu Minzhong looked at the empty sleeve on the right side of his body and sighed softly. If his right arm was still there, he had probably been admitted to the Army Military Academy. After two years of study, he would have a second lieutenant. It would be easier to be awarded title than an ordinary soldier...

"The king is coming, hurry up and kneel down to greet him!"

"Kneel down quickly, lords, gentlemen kneel on one knee, civilians kneel on both knees, slaves and serfs prostrate themselves..."

Several officials wearing red public uniforms walked along the street, shouting loudly as they walked, asking people on both sides of the street to kneel down to welcome Chen Dexing as a king and a demigod, so the general public naturally had to kneel down to worship.

Liu Minzhong also knelt down, subconsciously lowering his head and did not dare to see the officials and officials who were all constables in the Tanggu City robbery bureau. The structure of the Ming local government is a bit like a narrow central government, divided into government affairs, education, finance, construction, legal affairs, road arrest and other bureaus, but there are no diplomacy, military affairs, intelligence and other institutions. There are many small officials in each bureau, all recruited through exams. If Liu Minzhong is well-intentioned, he can take a small official exam and do some errands and do some errands and collect taxes. Although he has no big prospects, he can live a worry-free life. For those scholars from the northern regions who have read some books, can do business, and have some martial arts skills, if they are unwilling to join the army to take risks, then taking a small official exam is a way out.

But now, he has done several thieves because he is desperate and has been caught by the thief casino. He is really a shameful person.

In addition, after the country was initially determined, the education issue was also put on the agenda. The prefectures, prefectures, counties and cities under the Ming Dynasty are now preparing to open official primary schools and official middle schools. This is a new type of education that is completely different from the previous official schools. It is not a place where adults and even elderly scholars are mixed with their identities (although official students are not officials, they also have identities). It is a school for cultivating and educating young people. Naturally, a group of scholars should be recruited for training and then sent to serve as teachers. However, primary and middle school teachers in the Ming Dynasty also require a healthy limbs, and a strong martial arts skills.

Liu Minzhong also has no chance...

"Long live the king! Long live the Ming king!"

The sound of long live the mountain sounded, mostly cheering from the heart. Although Chen Dexing's rule in Yanyun had just been established, it had already brought hope to the people on this land. Even the scholars who had lost the ladder to the heavens could find their place in Chen Ming's regime.

The rules set by Chen Dexing are not fair, but they can mobilize people's enthusiasm for production, combat and engage in various undertakings. Moreover, because they are still in the early stages of development, there is no schedule for class solidification, and almost all areas are full of opportunities for upward development.

"Everyone has a way out and has hope, but I don't..." Liu Minzhong knelt there, weak, and thought of his situation and felt desperate. He didn't even notice that his good friend Xu Ziyuan rode a horse and followed a large four-wheeled carriage led by twelve horses and slowly walked up the street.

Chen Dexing was sitting in this huge carriage, staring at the crowd on the street through the open car window.

These are his people, and this is his country! It seems that the people still support themselves. This country is also prosperous and has great hope!

It seems that there is nothing wrong with the path I have led to this country.

He took his eyes back and threw it on Mo Yingniang who was sitting opposite him, but his brows frowned slightly, "Xingniang, they have not come back yet!"

Mo Yingniang was stunned: "Who are they?"

"The Mingzhou Expedition Team... has no news, maybe something happened. After all, the wind and waves are high and the waves are harsh." Chen Dexing paused for a moment and whispered, "Let's organize the second Mingzhou Expedition! This matter is done by the Tiandao Sect."
Chapter completed!
