Chapter 460: Yunchang went to Beijing to see the news(2/2)
But when I think back, it's quite good. Just like General Zhang of the Longshan Army, who started working alone early, he is now considered to be prominent and has a glorious ancestor. Brother Guan is no worse than that man, so there is no reason to live in such a miserable state.
"Okay, Liao and Brother Guan will go and have some adventures together."
"Hahaha, I'll go too. This time I came back from the south in despair. I don't even have the face to go home. I just went to the Western Regions with Brother Guan. Then we brothers will return home together in fine clothes. Wouldn't it be great!"
"Okay, let's go together."
"Done!"
When Guan Yu saw this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. These were the capable people he recognized. He believed that with their help, he would be able to make great achievements soon.
···
That night.
The group finally arrived in Luoyang.
As those merchants said, the huge city of Luoyang was brightly lit and there was no curfew.
When entering the city, check the famous bamboo sign in detail and make sure there are no problems. Then you can go in and out at will without any difficulty.
Guan Yu met several acquaintances from the former Longshan Army, and entering the city was even easier.
"There is no Longshan Army now. Now we are called Qilin Guards, also called Qilin Army. Originally, Lord Wei wanted Yide to lead the army, but then for some reason, it became Governor Xu. Oh, now he is called Xu
Commander-in-Chief."
At the barbecue stall under the city wall, several men sat together and reminisced about old times.
Guan Yu asked curiously: "Isn't it the duty of the city guards to protect the city? Why are you here on patrol?"
The military man smiled and said: "In other places, it is true that the city guards are responsible for city defense, but this is the imperial capital. We are all the emperor's personal soldiers. Compared with the city guards, it is of course safer for us to patrol."
"What about the previous city guards?" Guan Yu then asked.
The military man did not hide anything, and said bluntly: "Part of the previous city guards were incorporated by us, and the rest were based on personal wishes. Some went to the Four Spirits Army, and some went to the caravan as bodyguards.
Many of them retired directly from the army and started small businesses."
At this time, the owner of the barbecue stall came over and said with a smile: "Brother Yun, come and try the lamb kidneys I grilled myself."
The soldier smiled and said, "Look at me, Lao Zhang. Since he retired from the army, his life has been much more comfortable. He doesn't have to do patrols or drills. He has a baby at home every day. Now his third baby is about to be born."
Guan Yu smiled slightly and looked towards the back kitchen of the shop. He saw a woman with a bulging belly grilling meat, and there were two children beside her. One helped bring tea and water, and the other helped clean the table.
The shop owner smiled and said, "I'm envious. I'm envious of you for being discharged from the army."
The military man chuckled and said: "That won't work. I still want to make more money. Let's buy two Henig later. One person can do the work for several people. I tell you, you can actually do it.
Buy a nig to help you, at least you don’t have to do it yourself when killing cattle and sheep.”
The shop owner drank a glass of wine and nodded: "I have this plan. Looking back, if Nige can be cheaper, I will buy one and use it. Your sister-in-law will also give birth in a few months, and then the remaining
I’m busy alone, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to make it through.”
Guan Yu sat aside, listening to their chatter about homely matters, and suddenly felt a mixture of emotions in his heart.
He suddenly thought of Du Liniang, and then of his current situation. He was powerless and had no money. Even if he wanted to start a family, he didn't have the slightest confidence.
Just when Guan Yu sighed to himself.
Jun Han suddenly said: "Oh, by the way, Lao Zhang, the day after tomorrow is Captain Yan's big day, how much do you plan to pay?"
The shop owner put down his wine glass and responded: "Fifty cents, no more, no less, as long as it makes sense."
"Well, we agreed that we will only pay fifty coins. In fact, this is enough. Captain Yan has a good life. He married such a beautiful lady. Not only did he bring his own dowry, but he also has a filial son who is willing to change his surname to recognize her.
As a father, I don’t know how many people envy me.”
"Who says it's not the case? Many diners say every day that Du Liniang is one of the most stunning beauties in our Han Dynasty. They also say that if there was a beauty list in the "Big Han Dragon and Tiger List", she would be at least in the top three. Tsk tsk tsk, Yan Dui...
…”
Boom!
"Uh, Brother Yun, what are you doing?"
Guan Yu's long beard was fluttering, his eyes were wide open with anger, and the chair behind him was lying on the ground.
"What are you talking about, Du Liniang? Is this Du Liniang from Xiuhefang?"
The military man and the store owner looked at each other and nodded at the same time, "Yes, besides her, who else is there?"
Chapter completed!
