At the Beginning, I Scolded the Fairy Gate, I Really Want to Die

Chapter 273 : This is simply life in Caoying

Nangong beloved did not know how Mo Haoran suddenly realized.

Looking at this guy's appearance, it was obvious that he had misunderstood what he meant.

but.

This is not important.

Mo Haoran was just a small person, he didn't care much about it, whatever he thought.

So Mr. Nangong nodded casually, his figure flashed and disappeared in place.

Long after he left, Mo Haoran stayed where he was.

Judging from its appearance, it was full of fighting spirit.

"Ye Ning is indeed the next big move. This world has changed. The fairy gate no longer has the status of dominating the world. It's time for me to find a way out for myself."

Mo Haoran muttered to herself, complicated thoughts flashed through his mind.

The Yuhuamen is indeed kind to him, and he also has feelings for the Yuhuamen, but this does not mean that he will hang on a rope. In his opinion, he has worked hard for the Yuhuamen over the years. Knowing how many things, such a calculation, it can be regarded as a reward.

Thinking of this, the guilt in his heart faded a lot.

People are like this. Whenever they do something against their will, they will always find a reason to excuse themselves and make own behavior appear more reasonable.

This is the case for Mo Haoran.

"I am a pawn left by Ye Ning in the fairy gate. I don't know how many pawns like me are there?"

He muttered in his heart.

Not long after, Mo Haoran also disappeared in place.

The forest returned to silence, as if no one had ever appeared.

But at this moment, right at the border of Binzhou, a group of people are coming.

"My lord, when you go forward, it is at the junction of Zhanghe River. After crossing the river, you will arrive at Bingzhou."

Said a man dressed as a scribe.

"Yavin, I have said more than once. This time we traveled to Bingzhou in disguise. I am a merchant from afar, and you are my accountant. Why do you still call me the king?"

What responded to him was a strong voice.

If Ye Ning were here, he would definitely be able to recognize at a glance, this person is not someone else, it is Wei Wang Cao Meng.

Chongzhou, where Wei was located, was originally adjacent to Bingzhou, separated by a Zhang River, 28 on both sides of the river bank were the two prefectures.

However, Wang Wei, who used to be extremely overbearing and energetic above the Golden Palace, is now wearing some tacky silks, his face has been slightly adjusted, and his temperament is completely turned upside down.

From a lofty king, he suddenly became a slick businessman. -

The difference between these things has gone too far.

Zhu Yawen smiled bitterly. He was clearly the Shangqing of the Wei Kingdom, and he was also one of the best figures in front of Wei Wang. How could he be reduced to Mr. Accountant? It's just that even Wang Wei himself did not hesitate to condescend to be an ordinary businessman, then He can't have any dissatisfaction, only cupped hands apologizes.

"Back to the club, I know.

Cao Meng nodded, only then showed satisfaction.

He looked into the distance and said.

"Go further, it's Binzhou, right?"

Zhu Yawen nodded, he had the ability to remember everything, and said that he was familiar with everything about Wei.

"Going forward, there is still a village called Shixi Village. This is the last village on the border and the most remote place where the people of the Wei Kingdom are located. Shixi Village is less than ten miles in the past and it is Zhanghe."

Cao Meng nodded and said.

"Very good, then we will speed up the pace and go to Bingzhou first."

He gave an order, and the others should naturally be.

Except for him and Zhu Yawen, the entire "caravan" totaled two to three hundred people. Most of them were dressed as caravan escorts and were responsible for transporting goods, while a few were dressed as accountants and doormen.

But this is obviously just an illusion, their true identity is either the most elite guard around the king of Wei, or they are the distinguished civil servants and generals.

The caravan slowly stepped forward, while Zhu Yawen followed, but at the same time he persuaded him with all his heart.

"My boss, I'm sorry to talk a lot, even if I know that you don't like to listen, but I still have to say that you are distinguished, and it is related to the fate of countless people in Wei State. Even if you are curious about the Bingzhou New Deal, you can send someone to go. Inquiry about the records, why do you have to experience it yourself? There are many people who have met you in this world, and the relationship between Wei Guo and Da Zhou

It is, it is like water and fire again. Once you are discovered, I am worried that it will be difficult for you to return to Wei State.

When Zhu Yawen said this, his heart was full of depression.

He just couldn't figure it out anyway, he didn't know what his prince was crazy about.

Why can't I think about it suddenly, and I feel like I want to go to Bingzhou?

Bingzhou is Ye Ning's site!

Ye Ning, this person, is simply terrifying, that is, the immortal gates are planted in his hands severely. Isn't it going to die?

The daughter of a daughter can't sit down.

The gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall.

He thought that Cao Meng was too irrational.

But Cao Meng shook his head and said with a solemn expression.

"Yawen, when Ye Ning was in Beijing in the past, he once wrote warnings and comments for others. He said: It's easy to get on paper, and I absolutely know that I must practice this. I even recognize this sentence. Anything, you should believe in a principle, that is, seeing is believing, hearing is not, no matter how detailed the report is, it is not as good as seeing it with my own eyes. I want to understand the Bingzhou New Deal.

, I have to come in person, because only I know what I want to see!"

So what do you want to see?

Zhu Yawen did not understand.

But he didn't ask this sentence.

He knew that Cao Meng's view of the problem was different from him. Something in Bingzhou must have attracted him, otherwise he would never be like that.

Seeing Zhu Yawen's silence, Cao Meng said again.

"As for the security issue you mentioned, I am actually the least worried about it. If I change to the other five countries, I don't dare to go. Once my identity is revealed, even if I am not dead, I must not be under house arrest. But Ye Ning is different. Everyone knows that he is a gentleman sincerely, and I have been in contact with Ye Ning in the past. I believe that even if he knows that I have gone to Bingzhou,

Will not move me, because I am going this time not as a monarch of a hostile force, but as a businessman.

Wen Yan, Zhu Yawen Didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

What is this nonsense?

Co-author, you said you are a businessman, you are a businessman?

Cao Meng knew he still couldn't figure it out, but he didn't bother to explain it.

The only scene he had had contact with Ye Ning appeared in his mind. At that time, Ye Ning, Blood Qi Fang Gang, were new to the world, but they were already awe-inspiring.

At that time, I admired Ye Ning infinitely.

But I have never thought that the young man who speaks righteously will one day be able to reach such a height.

He believes that people like Ye Ning will not embarrass him.

Because of Ye Ning's character, he can be trusted.

It's that simple.

While chatting all the way, everyone quickly arrived at the last village on the border of Yanzhou.

Stone Creek Village.

When he arrived outside Shixi Village, Cao Meng's expression was a little ugly.

I saw outside Shixi Village, looking around, it turned out to be a barren, many fields are dilapidated scenes, no one has cultivated.

Not only him, many scribes saw this scene, and felt a little heartbroken.

The ancients were agriculture-oriented.

Agriculture is the top priority.

This Shixi Village was so good, there was actually no field, instead of farming, leaving it to be abandoned in vain.

"How is this going?""

Cao Meng asked.

He was a little disappointed, after all, this is his turf.

On own site, seeing this kind of sight, of course, it is difficult for him to be happy.

Zhu Yawen couldn't answer, but he was Wei Guoshangqing, a dignified figure, how could he know about sleeping in the small village here.

Seeing that he couldn't answer, Cao Meng didn't say much, and walked forward first.

Soon, I arrived in Shixi Village.

It's amazing to say that when I entered Shixi Village, I found that there were no people. The cottages and wooden houses on both sides looked very dilapidated. There was no smoke or even a human touch.

But this is obviously a place where people live, because it can be seen that there are many footprints on the dirt road in the village, sewage flows across, and there are dirty and smelly filth everywhere.

This has caused many people to cover their noses. They are all pampered figures. When have they been to such a place? It is really too dirty and smelly, like entering a pigsty. For a while, they are cautious when walking. , For fear that the soles of the feet will be contaminated with dirt.

At this moment, they heard the sound of coughing in the hut not far away.

Cao Meng walked over without saying a word.

The yard of the hut was wide open. As soon as I entered, I saw an old woman with all white hair sitting on the haystack at the door, coughing constantly.

She is a little older, looks thin and short, and has a hunched back. The most disturbing thing about her mistress is that her eyes are obviously something wrong, the whites of her eyes are turned too much, and her eyes are a little loose. Seeing everyone coming in, She didn't know the truth, she didn't know what was going on, and she was a little at a loss.

But at this moment, Cao Meng said with a smile.

"Don't worry about the elderly. We are passing merchants. We are going to Bingzhou soon. We are passing by here and want to ask for a sip of water."

When the old woman heard the words, she relieved her heart, pointed to the well in the yard, and said.

"If you want to drink water, just go and hit it yourself. I can't see it clearly. It's inconvenient and offensive. I also look forward to the guest Haihan."

When the old woman finished speaking, she sat there blankly, not knowing what she was thinking, she seemed a little numb.

Cao Meng winked, and immediately someone pretended to fetch water.

And Cao Meng, sitting not far from the old woman, asked with a smile.

"How old is the old man?"

He was smiling on the surface, but in fact he was angry to the extreme in his heart.

This Shixi Village is his territory of Wei State!

Looking at the villagers’ homes and the clothes worn by the old women, you can see how poor they are.

Such a scene undoubtedly made him heartache.

The old woman may have not spoken to anyone for too long, and Tan Xing is still rich, and she speaks.

"This year has just been seventy-five.

Cao Meng nodded and said again.

"That old man is still a longevity. In other words, why are you alone at home, where are your children?"

Speaking of children, the old woman was obviously a little sad, and said with a sigh.

"My son and daughter-in-law have not seen him for more than ten days."

Cao Meng frowned and asked.

"Why is this?"

The old woman continued to sigh.

"I was recruited by the government and went to work."

Work?

Generally speaking, in ancient times, there was indeed the act of recruiting civilian husbands, but it was generally the government who wanted to repair something, and this was the case for the extensive recruitment of civilian husbands.

But in Cao Meng's memory, during this period of time, he didn't seem to have issued any decree, right?

He looked at Zhu Yawen.

Zhu Yawen frowned and said.

"Old man, as far as I know, it seems that the government hasn't had any projects that require a large number of recruiting civilians in this period of time, right?"

The old woman shook her head and said.

"It is said to be recruited to work, in fact, it is farming for the officials and the landlords."

what?

Cao Meng's face changed slightly.

"Is there anything like this in 373?"

A bitter smile appeared at the corner of the old woman's mouth, and sad emotions poured out of her dilated eyes.

"This kind of thing is not a day or two. It was like this when the old man was still young.. Even three years ago, the old man was recruited to farm."

"Three years ago, you were seventy-two years old, how can you still farm?"

"But you don't care about the old man. If the old man doesn't go, they will have to increase taxes and burn the old man's house, so they have to go. That is the time. For half a year, I ate some herbs and it was probably good, but this is the eye, but I can't see clearly."

"Why is that reasonable? How come there is such a thing? How can the government recruit the people to work on farming for the landlords in this world!"

Cao Meng was furious.

He had never heard of these things.

According to the old woman, this kind of thing does not last a day or two at all, but has always been the case.

Moreover, looking at this situation, it is impossible to only target Shixi Village. This is probably a kind of unspoken rule, but he doesn't know it.

"The guests do not know that the landlord and the official family have a lot of fertile land. Often the family has thousands of acres or tens of thousands of acres. It was a waste of money and food to take care of the food. So, ah, it colluded with the government and forced the villagers to work in agriculture. In the name of levying, it was OK

No money or food. "

"What? Or bring your own dry food?"

"Yes, it has always been the case. My son and daughter-in-law have been there for more than ten days, and I don't know when they will be back."

"This matter is simply appalling. The government is so perverse. Isn't it possible that no one takes care of them?"

"What? They are all together. Who will stand up for the little people like us? The old man does not ask for anything else, but only asks for his son and daughter-in-law to return safely. The guest should have seen it. There is no one in the village. They were taken away forcibly, and they don’t know when they will come back. Their fields are barren, but every year,

Pay taxes, alas, this day, people really can't live anymore."

At the end, the old woman was sad and shed tears.

But Cao Meng was out of anger.

"Unreasonable, unreasonable, unreasonable!!!"

He gritted his teeth.

These dog officials are so vicious to such an extent.

What is this doing?

This is simply killing people!

Zhu Yawen and others were also dumbfounded.They originally thought that Wei Guohaiyan Heqing was already one of the best places in the world. But today, when they went to the countryside, they learned that under the seemingly peaceful appearance, they still hide their unwillingness. Known sin.

"Come here, Chuangu's order!"

Cao Meng gritted his teeth.
