Chapter 247: A good day that I can't imagine
It can be said that Momen Juzi's conversation did not have much substantive content. Li Yi returned to Anxin New Town, but he was still worried about Taoism.
"Shitou, is it too windy and you're cold?" Wang asked with concern: "I'm going to get some ginger soup for you to take away the cold?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Li Yi shook his head. His mind was now full of some fierce men in historical records, such as Zhang Yide who drank three times and drank water, Ran Min who bravely defeated the three armies, and Chen Qingzhi who defeated an army of one hundred thousand with three thousand people. Could it be that
Do these people also know spells?
He looked at Mrs. Wang who was cleaning and asked casually: "Mom, do you believe that a person can scare away thousands of troops with a loud roar?"
"It depends on when." What Li Yi didn't expect was that Wang did not come to a conclusion and said: "Such people should be rare nowadays, but before the Song Dynasty, it should still be possible."
Li Yi was stunned: "Is there really such a thing that just shouting can scare people to death?"
"Of course." Ms. Wang raised her head, her eyes a little sad, but she immediately hid the sadness well: "This kind of sound can scare people to death, not really, but a kind of
The use of momentum, for example, when the overlord of Western Chu fought against Liu Bang, he drank a good archer to death with a glare and a slight scolding from a hundred paces away."
"Is it such an exaggeration? Is this fabricated by history books?" Li Yi still didn't believe it.
"It's not a fabrication. Xiang Yu was born with double pupils and innate supernatural power. He has a talent for martial arts that no one else has, so he can win every battle and become the overlord of the world. And he is a noble of the Chu State, with a long family background, and has some popular practices.
That's why you can drink your opponent to death with one sound." Wang put the rag in his hand on the table, walked over, looked at Li Yi and said: "Stone, never underestimate the ancient sages and celebrities, they can leave their names in history, and they can leave their names in history.
Some of them are really lucky."
"Since Xiang Yu can do it, can I do it?" Li Yi looked at Wang's serious look and thought she was suffering from hysteria again, so he said with a smile.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang nodded, looked at Li Yi, and said happily: "Of course, my son is born with supernatural powers and is extremely intelligent. He is no worse than that Xiang Yu. Why not? But what you have to do is to take me to the top."
Only by practicing the brocade book I gave you this time will it be possible."
Li Yi twisted his lips, wondering why this mother was so serious about it, and couldn't help but ask: "Mom, since I can do it, then Li Laowu is extremely knowledgeable, can he do it?"
Unexpectedly, Mr. Wang shook his head and said: "You are wrong, martial arts and Taoism are different. Martial arts is about form, Taoism is about intention. Only by combining form and meaning, and knowing the Tao, can you achieve control and truly use your power."
kill."
This is beyond imagination. It turns out that my mother also knows...
Wang went on to say: "In fact, there are two paths to martial arts in ancient times, one is martial arts and the other is Tao. Warriors rely on the body and the art of hitting joints to feel where the Tao is, while scribes rely on being familiar with the sounds, rhymes, ancient rituals, and powerful words.
Feeling where the Tao is, the warriors at that time were able to kill generals and seize the flag, and were unmatched; the scribes were righteous and brilliant. However, the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty meant the destruction of the world. In the battle of Xiangyang, the warriors were destroyed; after Yashan, the scribes died for their country, and the Chinese Taoist tradition was completely incomplete.
, those who survived were either some hermits, or a group of mediocre people who lived in an ignoble existence, with no one to continue the orthodoxy, which is why it is difficult to produce geniuses and to rectify the world today."
Wang talked a lot eloquently, and every one of them was a secret that had never been seen in the world. Li Yi was stunned when he heard it. He didn't expect that the Yuan Dynasty's fall to the world would cause such great damage to Chinese civilization.
Thinking about the Yuan Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, the Eight-Power Allied Forces' invasion of China, and the Anti-Japanese War, Chinese civilization suffered multiple fatal wounds. No wonder later generations have contradictory histories and are full of traditional and bad habits. It turns out that the world is destroyed and China cannot survive.
Li Yi was shaken and uneasy. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. He looked at Ms. Wang and asked, "Mom, how do you know this?"
Wang coughed lightly, picked up the rag again, wiped the seat and said, "Don't ask about this. I will tell you when the time comes."
Li Yi wanted to ask again, but Wang had already left in a hurry.
Li Yi looked at his mother's figure and couldn't help but be filled with doubts. There seemed to be some secret hidden in his mother.
It's already the Dragon Boat Festival, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Once the solar term is over, the temperature will get hotter day by day.
The Dragon Boat Festival is about eating rice dumplings. This is a traditional festival for the Chinese people. To achieve this is to remember the ancestors and respect the sages. The refugees used to have no fixed place and were hungry. How could they eat rice dumplings? But now they have settled down in Anxin.
, life is getting better day by day, but there are conditions.
In order to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, Li Yi sent people to nearby counties to buy glutinous rice. According to the guarantee unit, he asked the chief of each guarantee to take the glutinous rice back so that the villagers could have a festival with rice dumplings.
In order to enhance the interest in life of the villagers, the village elders' home also specially organized shows such as magic tricks, storytelling and operas, which were performed in various villages. The new town even held a festival for three consecutive days, so that everyone could have some entertainment after the busy farming work.
, life will not be too boring.
On the Dragon Boat Festival, Mrs. Wang caught several big roosters and a goat in the backyard, had them slaughtered by a butcher in the village, cooked them and stewed them, and sent them to the village elders such as Mr. Qian, Mr. Wang and the patriarch.
, let them enjoy it together. Li Yi, together with Wang Jin, Zhang San, Zhang Mingde, Li Si, * and others, brought a large pot of meat and several jars of old wine, and gathered together to eat and drink.
Several people sat in the room, and the guests and hosts took their seats. Li Yi looked at the burly people with long breaths, nodded and said: "Looking at you, you are doing well!"
Zhang Mingde smiled and replied: "The brigade commander is joking. You asked me to practice brave training in the morning and teach them how to read in the evening. I don't have such ability. In order not to make my subordinates laugh, I have to improve myself first."
The rest of the people also laughed. Li Yi had previously issued an order. Within the railway brigade, everyone from the battalion commanders of each battalion to the villagers must train for a hundred days, be literate in the evening, and have a competition and an exam every month.
, the last ten in the competition were all punished, and those who failed the exam were all demoted from the railway brigade. With such a severe punishment, the village warriors trained during the day and studied at night, but they were very tired. Even Zhang Mingde and the others had to study hard.
, I am afraid that I will fail the exam and it will be too embarrassing.
After hearing this, Li Yi couldn't help but laugh and said: "That's good. I'll let you wait until you can learn some words. It's not like me. I will take the county examination next month to obtain merit."
When Li Yi went to Gaoyang to study before, he said that he needed to rely on fame. How could Zhang Mingde and the others take it seriously? They only said that he was running a business in Gaoyang. Now it seems that he really studied and passed the scientific examination.
It turned out that the brigade commander also had to spend his time studying. Now Zhang San, Li Si and others felt more comfortable, and they all smiled.
Li Si even laughed and said: "I thought studying was just for talk, but now it seems that the brigade commander really wants to be a scholar."
Li Yi laughed and scolded: "Why do you look down on me? I can't help but want to be a scholar, and I also want to be the number one scholar. Just wait for me and let you know how good I am."
Hearing the brigade commander's wild words, everyone was chatting and laughing happily, but they still joked: "If the brigade commander can become the number one scholar, we will all lead horses for you, ensuring that you have a good time."
Li Yi smiled and said: "Then prepare this later, and I will naturally let you lead the horse to clear the way for me."
Everyone drank and talked freely, teasing and joking with each other, but they were also deeply affectionate. Just talking, An Xin's situation came to light.
Zhang San said with a slight anger: "We have finally established Anxin and taken in the refugees, but some of them are really bold and treacherous. They are really hateful. I think they should be severely punished."
Seeing that Li Yi didn't know much about it, Zhang Mingde on the side recounted the problems discovered during the village home's inspection of the villages below.
The village chief and the township chief were originally well-known people among the refugees. After selection, we did not expect that some ruffians rose to power through cunning and cunning methods, but they dared to disobey orders for their own benefit, and they were both obedient and shady. This is worrying!
Zhang Mingde was used to seeing such country officials without being surprised. He had never been able to cure them in the past dynasties. After sighing, he persuaded: "In the countryside, the village chiefs have been either highly respected people or some cunning and rogue people since ancient times.
This is the case for all the minor officials of the Ming Dynasty. This is a common thing for officials all over the world. It is extremely difficult to prevent it. The commander of the brigade does not need to worry too much!"
"Don't worry too much? I decided on the new policy to benefit the people, not to let the managers enjoy themselves!" Hearing what he said, Li Yi shook his head: "Think about it, Mingde, we are brave enough to recruit locals, Master.
, the various methods of civil servants, craftsmen and people are simple and effective in nature, and they are all for the sake of peace and prosperity. Now these people dare to act boldly and recklessly. However, if it lasts for a long time, in a few years, these shortcomings will become more and more serious, and even
As a result, some people are seeking personal gain, bending the law for personal gain, coveting pleasure, and violating the law. If we fail to take care of it, the weak will become brave soldiers, and the stupid people will become civil servants. The people who use them will be a mixed bag, and the army will have no fighting power, and the officials will not be able to use it.
How will we deal with it?"
Zhang Mingde was slightly surprised. He felt that these were just common things, but after listening to Li Yi's words, he should pay attention to them.
Li Yi added: "The embankment of a thousand feet collapsed in an ant nest. These are the foundation of Anxin's life. How can I ignore it? Since these people are found out, they must be severely punished and expelled from Anxin, leaving them to fend for themselves."
Destroy."
After hearing this, everyone was silent. If they were driven out of Anxin, this person would immediately become a refugee. He would suffer from hunger and might not be able to survive anymore.
Zhang Mingde asked: "Commander of the Brigade, if these people are very familiar with Anxin affairs, what should they do if they are taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives after being expelled?"
This is indeed a problem. Li Yi thought for a while and said: "In this case, the strict etiquette and laws will be publicly tried by the village elders' court, and they will be severely punished, incorporated into prisoners of war, and demoted to coolies, so there is no need to worry about them."
There will be chaos."
Demoted to coolies? Coolies are prisoners of war. In Anxin, they are different from villagers and Yongying Xiangyong. They are all people who have lost their freedom and are enslaved to work. After hearing this, everyone can't help but sigh for these people. Once they become prisoners of war,
Apart from gaining enough achievements, I am afraid it will be difficult to have a moment of peace and quiet.
In the past, Anxin's personnel were tight and it was difficult to find useful talents, so he was chosen to be the tallest among the shortest. He also repeatedly tolerated some favoritism and perversion of the law, just so that Anxin's affairs could operate effectively. Now that everything is going well, it needs to be rectified.
Anxin is a big family. In addition to the people, we are the servants of the people. No dignitaries can appear here.
Even Li Yi's own family lives by receiving merit every month without exception.
It is almost the wheat harvest season, so now all the villagers are busy tending the fields. As long as there is a harvest, every household will be able to store enough food for two years this year, and the rest will be stored in the village home.
good.
One morning in May, Sangazi held the iron plow tightly and followed the old scalper to start grazing the cattle and pulling weeds.
Sangazi thought he had a lot of strength, but he became a refugee only because the powerful people occupied his land.
He thought that he would starve and flee everywhere, and would eventually end up dying in a foreign land. Unexpectedly, he settled down in Anxin. The land here had been barren for two years and was still somewhat fertile. He had his own family. Later, he married a girl from the same village.
He had just started a family, and the two of them had a total of twenty acres of land. He had never thought of having so much land in his life.
Relying on the excrement accumulated at home to fertilize, and because they and their wives are very diligent, the fields are well cared for by them. This year will definitely be a bumper harvest. In addition to the food given to the village nursing home, they will be able to leave dozens of stones.
The food is not only enough for two years, but also part of it can be sold to the village nursing home to increase one's own achievements.
His wife, Zhou, was already three months pregnant, and Sangazi did not dare to let her go to the fields to do heavy work. He was now waiting for a good harvest and achievements to raise a child.
Being able to farm, have food to eat, marry a wife, and have a child was something that Sangazi would not have dared to think about when he was fleeing famine, but now he has it all, and he can also receive goat milk and milk every month after giving birth to a child.
