The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family Chapter 142

"What are you worried about?" Yan Laoer pointed to the direction where Lao Yan was, and said mysteriously: "Your uncle is there when the sky is falling! Didn't you also talk about it, but every male lead has luck, When one person is an official, the whole family wins..."

  Yan Yu: …

  Dad, why do you remember these inconsequential words so clearly?

  Just this one time, engraved in my mind.

"Uncle's choice at the time can't be said to be wrong, alas! I'd better find a chance to ask him, uncle said, if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask him." Seeing that Li Xuemei was a little tired, Yan Yu stopped in time. mouthed.

   Pulling her father out of the car, "Father, if uncle asks, why do you lie on the ground listening to the sound, what would you say?"

  Yan's second child: stuck.

  Yan Yu sighed, "Just say that you are looking for water veins, you need to listen."

   "Is there another way?" Yan Er Er asked in surprise.

   "Who knows!" Yan Yu shrugged, "Just treat it as if you have a strange body, let's look for water sources in the future, don't you say you can listen, do you say you can read the trend of mountains and rivers?"

  Yan's second son was nervous, "I hope your uncle doesn't ask, it's good to have ordinary ears for me."

   Whatever you are afraid of, come here.

  Yan Huaiwen really asked why his younger brother fell to the ground.

"Brother! I thought about who told me before that those who fetch water can see or hear where there is water, so I thought about it and gave it a try. What if I can hear something?" Mr. Yan The second tone is sincere.

  Old Yan, look at me quickly, look at my sincere eyes!

  Yan Huaiwen didn't sense his request and looked to the northwest.

   asked him: "Then what did you hear?"

   It's good to have the courage to try.

   "I can't tell, but I just have a feeling that if you change the direction, you might find water." Yan Laoer poked secretly.

Yan Huaiwen looked at him with a solemn tone: "God Bless, you know that being a brother is not enough, the journey is determined by you, at this moment and at that moment, I am waiting for this moment, I am afraid I have to change the route, I want to ask you, avoid the official road , Is there a way to avoid our original straight path?"

   "Uncle!" Yan Yu interrupted suddenly.

   "Are we still going to Guanzhou?" Yan Yu asked the question that had been on his mind.

   "Of course." Yan Huaiwen turned to look at her, not minding her interjection.

He looked at Heng'er on the other side. Yan Xiangheng kept his head slightly lowered, and he could only see a pair of eyebrows that were about to be knotted. After Yan Yu asked this question, he suddenly raised his head and stared at him with burning eyes, waiting for his answer. Answer.

   "Father!" Yan Xiangheng asked abruptly, "Who are those people? Are they officers and soldiers from the Leshan Guard?"

   "No." Yan Huaiwen said calmly, with no brows and eyes, "As I guessed, it should be a first-class private soldier."

  Private soldiers?

  Yan Yu's eyes lit up.

  Yan Xiangheng has always been reserved and in awe in front of Yan Huaiwen. Since he was sensible, his father has been more than dignified and not close enough.

  Father is very determined to study and spends more time in the academy than at home. After Yan Xiangheng entered Kaimeng, he saw him more often than at home.

  But it's not as close and fresh as this journey.

   This is also the first time that he, like Sister Erya, asked what was in his heart without any scruples.

   "The official uniforms worn by those people don't look fake, and they even have waist tags."

  Yan Xiangheng took out a brass sign from his cuff, "My child has already observed it carefully, and it is indeed made of copper."

  Yan's second son and Yan Yu's father and daughter looked at Yan Xiangheng in surprise.

  Young man, you don't have a strong sense of presence, but your thoughts are very detailed!

   It was so quiet, I went to see the material of the clothes, and secretly hid a waist card...

  Yan Huaiwen smiled lightly, took the waist card, took out one from his sleeve, and bumped it indifferently.

   There was a sound of impact, and it landed on one big and two small ones.

  “There are so many mistakes and omissions, as a father, I don't know where to start.”

  Yan Yu's mind is flexible, and she has heard the voice early on, and she has a bottom line in her heart, and she becomes alive again.

   "Uncle, drink saliva to moisturize your throat." The dog-legged person gave a bamboo tube, the lid was lifted, and two wild chrysanthemums stretched and re-bloomed in the water.

  Yan Huaiwen nodded her little head.

   said: "Then let's start with the horse."

   "What's wrong with the horse?" Yan Er Er asked.

"There is nothing wrong with the horse itself, the problem is the quantity." Yan Huaiwen took a sip of water and explained the confusion for the three of them: "I didn't set up a horse farm in my dynasty, but only raised them in military villages in various places. The output is limited, and there is very little outflow. The horses in circulation are all brought back by merchants from outside the pass.

  If you are a serious guard officer, not to mention horses, all the equipment is lacking. I have never heard of any guards in various places that are so rich. More than a hundred people travel, and everyone is equipped with a horse, haha...

  Weapons, official uniforms, waist badges, are all like this. "

  Yan Yu asked with bright eyes: "Uncle, what do you mean, it's not bad, but the texture is too good?"

Yan Huaiwen hummed, "The knife is a good knife, the official uniform is also new, and the waist badge...is made of pure brass." He smiled and shook his head: "As per the system, it is exactly the same, but in fact, the treasury is empty. More than ten years ago, the official seals were changed once, and the capitals of all the prefectures were also included in the return."

   "So, it's all fake, people are fake, things are fake, hahaha, fake is better than real? Hahahaha..." Yan Yu laughed to death.

   What kind of weird court is this, so poor? Take back all the copper things like official seals and waist cards? So what did you change for the people below?

   "Brother, what are the real official seals and badges?" Yan Er Er asked.

  "Official seals are mostly carved from famous stones from various places, while waist cards are made of wood, iron, silver, and gold, and the gold and silver are all covered."

  Yan Yu: Covered?

   Is that what she understood?

  Gold and silver plating! !

  This one is pretty good.

Ha ha ha ha…

  Yan Yu asked again: "Uncle, if these people are private soldiers, doesn't it mean that they are richer than regular soldiers?"

  Yan Xiangheng pursed his lips, and said with a serious expression: "Guarding the mine, of course there is no shortage of money."

yes!

  These people will chase after them because they smashed the bandit dens for human trafficking and cut off their offline.

  Yan Yu strung everything together.

The owner of the private mine contacted bandits to buy people. The bandits caught people on the official road and sold them to the mine. They also raised private soldiers, well equipped, better than the regular army.

well? Is there something missing?

   "Father! Why do they have to imitate the officers and soldiers when raising private soldiers?" Yan Xiangheng asked seriously.

  Yan Huaiwenwen said: "Exploiting private mines, buying and selling civilians, impersonating officers and soldiers, imitating official ceremonies, privately forging weapons... the numerous crimes should be treason."

  Yan's second son: …

  Yan Yu: …

  Yan Xiangheng: …

   For such a serious matter, can you say it in this everyday tone?

  Yan Yu has a groundhog screaming in her heart:

ah--
