Chapter 4 The emergence of auspiciousness in southern Fujian

Brothers, support me and collect it.

"The country of Anxiong pays tribute to the great bird. The geese are covered with camel hooves, and are pale in color. They raise their heads seven or eight feet high, spread their wings more than 100 feet high. They eat barley, and their eggs are like jars. They are called ostrich." - "Guangzhi" by Guo Yigong of Jin Dynasty

The next day, Song Bo just got up during lunch. In fact, the ancients generally said that they had two meals a day. However, Song Bo himself was a modern person and had been hungry in the wilderness. Therefore, Song Bo stipulated that he had to eat three meals at home. And the people of Ada obviously occupied Song Bo's light from a savage who was not covered in clothes and could not eat enough to become a full household with three meals.

"Ada, Ada, when is it now?" Song Bo just got up and put on his clothes in a daze. He didn't fall asleep all night last morning. When Ada asked for advice on whether to have a meal in the morning, Song Bo replied directly and woke up before talking. As a result, he slept until now.

"Langjun, it's almost noon now. Do you want to use lunch?"

"No, please help me prepare. I want to invite someone to lunch. Let's go and prepare quickly." Song Bo quickly adjusted his condition. After Ada was ready, the master and servant walked towards the center of Fengzhou City, the capital, in the center of Fengzhou City.

"Mr., who are we going to invite? Are we going to invite the chief official in Fengzhou?" Song Bo also felt that Ada had been talking more and more recently, especially after he could speak Chinese, he was talking more and more. He had to ask anything no matter what (helpful?).

"Yes, go and invite the county magistrate of Fengzhou. If you have important things to report. If you find auspicious things overseas, you won't be able to report them to the government. Do you think so? Haha." Without looking at Ah Da's confusion, Song Bo led the way to the Fengzhou capital.

But the guard at the gate of the capital is not an idiot, and it is impossible to let anyone who wants to break into the capital.

"Stop, this is Fengzhou's capital, and no idle people are allowed to enter." A big man with a beard roared and called out to Song Bo, who was about to break into the capital.

"Don't be angry, this official, a family has something to report to the county magistrate. And it's a big deal, a great thing." Song Bo is a good person, and shook hands with the bearded man when he was talking.

The big man felt something was cold in his hand. When he opened it, he saw a few bright silver beans lying quietly in his hand. Although the majestic big man still had a serious face, he spoke much more kindly.

"Don't worry, wait a moment. I'll go back to my house." The man quickly ran into Fengzhou's capital.

Time was not long. The man walked out of the gate and shouted, "Young man, my husband is welcome, please follow me."

It is impossible for Song Bo to really invite him because of a word. But the Han Dynasty was indeed the brother-in-law of the county magistrate. The first government of the new dynasty did not corrupt as quickly as the peasant army, and he is still very honest now. So although the second master (the old name) in the door was a fat man, there were not many opportunities to receive silver beans. You should know that although gold and silver were not circulated at this time, it was still very valuable. So this was the largest income of the gatekeeper since the gatekeeper's history. Of course, he tried his best to help Song Bo speak nice things in front of his brother-in-law. The county magistrate also felt that what his brother-in-law said made sense, so he agreed to Jian Song Bo. But when the man's mouth was different, it became a invitation.

This Fengzhou capital is very simple, just an ordinary three-entry courtyard. There are no tall courtyard walls or halls. It’s just that the gate is a bit better, and there are ordinary houses inside. However, it may be because of different dynasties. The houses inside are all covered with wooden floors. Of course, there is also the seat that Song Bo has just adapted to in a month.

In the last house of the capital, Song Bo met the magistrate of Fengzhou. The magistrate of Fengzhou was a young man in his thirties. Of course, in this ancient age, he was already middle-aged, and in a few years, he would see the third generation. Maybe he had already seen the third generation. He was kneeling in the main seat. Song Bo sat on his right hand.

"Are you going to meet me?" A majestic voice came from the middle-aged man's mouth.

"Sir, yes, I have something big to report to you." Song Bo lowered his head as he said.

"Oh? Big thing?" The county magistrate obviously didn't believe that the other party had really reported to him any major thing. So the county magistrate didn't have any expression but turned his head proudly and looked at Song Bo.

"Well, a big thing, of course, it depends on whether the adults want to regard it as a big thing." Song Bo was very calm. Anyone who came to see it knew that this kid had a conspiracy.

"What can I do if I treat it as a big thing? So what if I don't treat it as a big thing?" It is definitely a good show for officials to act as an official. The officials of this era are all children of aristocratic families. Arrogance is definitely a postcard for them to be unified. If one day they are easy-going and friendly, it can only be said that the people they face are aristocratic families or close people, and they will never be ordinary old farmers or businessmen like Song Bo.

"If the adults think it is a big deal, Fuyao is just around the corner. If the adults think this matter is nothing, then they can only watch others Fuyao go straight. To put it bluntly, this is an opportunity." Song Bo was very sincere, or tried his best to do it sincerely. He persuaded the other party to accept his plan.

"Oh hehe. Fu Yao is soaring? Do you think I am a three-year-old child?" It's time for the person who is about to be a grandfather.

"Haha, sir, don't be busy drawing conclusions. Let's listen to what's going on." Song Bo was determined to the other party, because although the county magistrate said he didn't believe in Song Bo just now, he was not angry, but his eyes flashed. This shows that the county magistrate was very interested in Fu Yaoxing. But he couldn't let go of his inherent arrogance.

"Okay, I'll listen to you what's going on. It's so magical. If it's not as you said, Humph, you understand." The county magistrate was very calm. Because he had this strength, the county magistrate of Fengzhou, named Lu Song, was a illegitimate child of the Lu family in Fanyang. Although he was not very valued in the family, he was also a middle-level ruler in the family. Otherwise, he would not have been the throne of the county magistrate when he was thirty years old.

"This must be a big deal. I am a businessman. Two months ago, I discovered auspicious birds and emu in southern Australia. This bird is about one meter tall and has wings but does not fly. It is the overlord of the ancient roc. If you get it, you will look to the world." In fact, what Song Bo thought was that I didn't believe it myself. I don't know if I could use it.

"Oh? Is this true?" Everyone will doubt it. After all, fools are very few. Maybe only the Qing Dynasty can have fools who can be county magistrates (it is easier to buy and sell officials).

"Haha, wise, sir. But this is not the point. The key point is that the Prince Yin's Rebellion has just been put down. Today, there is auspiciousness. What do you think?" Song Bo, squinted his eyes and looked at the Magistrate Lu.

"Huh?" When the magistrate Lu heard the words "Auspiciousness" and immediately fell into deep thought. It is the third year of Zhenguan, and the rebellion of Prince Yin has just been quelled. The society is in peace. It is the time when auspiciousness is needed. If he really contributes, he will not directly improve himself because of this. However, he will definitely come into his sight. He performs better. Promotion is certain...

After thinking about it for about four or five minutes, County Magistrate Lu decided to offer auspiciousness. If this bird is real, there will be rewards with the least amount of money.

"If you are interested, you can check it out with me as auspicious bird. It's better to make a decision." Seeing that County Magistrate Lu seemed to have made a decision, Song Bo simply added a fire.

"Oh? Is there such a bird?" Now it was really the turn of County Magistrate Lu was surprised. Because he didn't believe that there was such a thing at the beginning.

"Mr. Lu wait. There is about a quarter of an hour left. My servants will pull the bird." Song Bo asked A Er to deliberately drag an emu bird to the control office for half an hour before going out.

Next, the two of them started chatting together like brothers, discussing how to offer auspiciousness, how to assert, and so on.

When the two were discussing happily, the bearded man standing at the door came in and bowed.

"Langjun, two people came back from the door with a big box. They claimed to be slaves of the Song family."

"My servant is here. The emu is here too. Haha." Song Bo smiled happily. He was very confident in his bird (connotation?)

"Let that servant bring the box to the hall." County Magistrate Lu ordered.

It didn't take long, and A Er pushed a box (there were a few small wooden wheels below) into the hall.

"Sir, please see. This is the emu." When the box was opened, the two-meter-high emu walked out of the box.

"This, isn't this an ostrich? What an emu?" County Magistrate Lu was really surprised this time. Because there were this bird a long time ago, but not many of it.

"Oh? County Magistrate Lu knows this kind of bird?" Song Bo was also depressed. Unexpectedly, the people in the Central Plains had known about ostrich for a long time. He thought he could cheat some money. However, Song Bo did not give it to him for nothing.

"It's best for adults to know this kind of bird. Then Dapeng's statement is not needed. Because according to ancient books, the prototype of the phoenix is ​​the case. In other words, what we get is the phoenix. Isn't this more convincing?" Song Bo's mouth is very powerful. And it's really amazing. He knows everything about ostrich (there is no way that the special forces need to survive, and they need to know a lot of knowledge).

"Hmm? Phoenix?" County Magistrate Lu was surprised because the ancients had very detailed records of ostrich during the Jin Dynasty.

"Of course, Lord Lu has read the article "Shangshu Yiji". The records about phoenixes in it are completely realistic ostrichs. Is it? The records of the Jin people only have the appearance of the ostrich and do not know the whole story of the ostrich. We can contribute according to the records of ancient books..." Song Bo later quoted many ancient books, such as the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, the Shanhai Jing, etc. to prove that the emus is a phoenix (there is still a difference between emu and phoenix).
