Chapter 964: Soochow People's Heart
It was another sunny day. Wu Shun, who was idle, took Qu A, and the two of them changed their faces and ran to the fields to act as registration personnel.
Wu Shun came here just to see the attitude of the people of Wu State towards the Wuling Army.
Wu Shun stood next to the land, and soon a farmer in his fifties came over.
"Official, please register. Zhaotai's family in Zhaozhuang collected twenty stones of grain today." The old farmer named Zhaotai said respectfully to Wu Shun.
Seeing that the old farmer had no fear in his eyes, Wu Shun smiled at him, and he also reported the good news with a sincere smile.
"The old man's family is good. He collected twenty stones so quickly, but he had to hand over to the military camp. You must not forget."
Wu Shun said with a smile.
Seeing Wu Shun's kindness, the old farmer smiled and said to Wu Shun: "The little old man knows, and the ten stones of grain will be sent over immediately."
After collecting twenty stones himself, he wanted to give out ten stones. Wu Shuncong could not see any annoyance or reluctance in the eyes of the old farmer. On the contrary, Wu Shun could feel the joy in the old farmer's heart.
"Old man, why are you so happy if you want to hand over half of the food?"
Wu Shun asked.
"Of course I'm happy. I handed over half of it, and I'll have enough leftovers for a long time. I'll come again tomorrow, and the old man will move his family to Shu Kingdom."
The old farmer said that he was about to move to Shu Kingdom, and his smile on his face was so bright.
"Hey, this one is packed, if you throw it away, you can come back to find me." Wu Shun tore off half of the paper from the notebook and handed it to the old farmer, asking him to take it to hand over the grain.
"Thank you, Jun!"
The old farmer took the pass and happily pushed the wheelbarrow away. Wu Shun shook his head and continued to register for the next person.
"Brother, you are so strong, why are you not as good as joining the army? Our Wuling Army is recruiting soldiers. Are you interested in trying it?"
Wu Shun seemed to be a strong man with a fierce aura, so he wanted to get him into the Wuling Army.
"This big brother, I am not to hide it. I was originally a soldier, but my mother at home was critically ill and then returned home to serve." The strong man said.
"Oh? I can't tell that my brother is still a filial son. No need to register. You can take all this food away." Wu Shun said to the strong man.
"This... Zhao Hu can't do this!"
The strong man said directly.
He knew the rules and did not want to get rid of his body because of Wu Shun's words.
Seeing Zhao Hu a little panicked, Wu Shun couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Zhao Hu, don't be afraid. I'll give it to you if I say I'll give it to you, no one will cause trouble for you."
"No, the King of Shu left 50% of the income for me and the people. If Zhao Hu didn't know how to be satisfied, he would be too ignorant of the sky and the earth."
Zhao Hu didn't want the convenience given by Wu Shun. In his mind, the King of Shu was a great good man. Since he received the food, he would not go forward if he should hand over it.
"Okay, since you insist, I'll give it to you." Wu Shun handed Zhao Hu a note, and Zhao Hu immediately said goodbye and left.
"Zhao Hu, if you want to join the army, you can go directly to the Baihu Camp to find Gao Shun to report, just say that I said it. Give this to Gao Shun and he will arrange for you."
Wu Shun called Zhao Hu and threw a jade pendant over.
"Thank you, but my mother is seriously ill and can't leave for the time being."
The war drum turned around and left. He also wanted to join the Wuling Army, but his biological mother was seriously ill in bed, so he really couldn't leave.
"Join the White Tiger Camp, you can ask the military doctor to go back and rectify your mother. You should know that all the military doctors in our Wuling Army are medical experts."
Wu Shun added another sentence, and Zhao Hu stopped directly after hearing this.
The Wuling Army's military doctor is very powerful, and he has heard of it for a long time. It is said that as long as you don't lose your head and have a breath, the Wuling Army's military doctors have a way to save their lives.
If the soldiers of the White Tiger Camp could easily move the military doctor, Zhao Hu would join without hesitation.
For those doctors in Wu, it’s fine if they offer a high price. The key is that they don’t have any real talent and knowledge, and the medicines they sell are also very scams. Zhao Hu’s mother took a lot of medicines and suffered a lot of sins but did not improve.
"I don't thank you for your kindness. I will report it after I hand over the food!"
Zhao Hu clasped his fists at Wu Shun and ran away quickly. At this time, he didn't know where he was. Wu Shun must be a general in the Wuling Army. He came to register and was completely idle and had nothing to do.
After registering a few more people, Wu Shun was no longer interested. He already knew that the people of Wu State had a good attitude towards the Wuling Army. From being indifferent to being quite fond of others to supporting him, Wu Ling Army did not pay anything. On the contrary, Wu Shun also received half of the Wu State's grain harvest for free.
Both sides were very happy!
...
"Can the Wuling Army be unreasonable?"
From a distance, Wu Shun heard someone saying bad things about Wulingjun and hurried forward to find out the situation.
"What's going on?"
Qu A pushed aside the crowd, and Wu Shun asked from behind.
"Hmph, the Wuling Army is unreasonable and will not let us wait to collect food." A man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheek jumped out and incited the people next to him from time to time. After a while, dozens of people supported him.
"Tell me in detail." Wu Shun knew that this person was here to make trouble, but there were so many people on the scene, he needed to understand the whole story.
"On one day, my family collected twenty stones of grain, but the guards refused to let me leave! They said they had collected yesterday and did not let us bear it. This land belongs to our Wu Kingdom. Why should we not let the Wuling Army let us go? What's even more annoying is that they have to pay half of it to the Wuling Army's barracks. Are the people of Shu Kingdom so domineering?"
This sharp-mouthed boy spoke very inflammatory, and many people looked at Wulingjun.
Yes, this is the land of their Wu Kingdom. They planted these grains. If they were not allowed to be harvested, why should they be handed over...
All kinds of questions and dissatisfaction arise in the hearts of the people of Wu.
Following the crowd is the biggest disadvantage of ordinary people. This pointed-mouthed man takes advantage of this natural disadvantage of the people.
"Oh? This land belongs to you? So the food belongs to you too?" Wu Shun smiled, and there are people who feel good about themselves.
"Of course, if there were no Wuling Army, we could collect food freely and not hand it over." The man with sharp mouth and monkey cheeks said sternly.
"You don't need to submit a sentence!" Wu Shun disagreed with what the man said.
"If there was no Wuling Army, the aristocratic families that collected food, you were just slaves, and the food they harvest had nothing to do with you! Is the Wuling Army asking for too much? Do you know that if Sun Quan also distributes it, who can get 50% of the food from the geniuses?"
In the end, Wu Shun almost yelled, and he wanted to yell at these numb Wu people.
