Chapter 8: Who is a hero?

Zhao Yu shook his head: "It's not because I want to, but because I have to deal with it."

He said: "The Changhe Sword Sect is going to take away my family business. Although I don't care much about this business, it is mine after all. There is no reason to let him take it away. How can I be willing to do so?"

After a pause, he added: "Brother Li, don't worry. Although I am a scholar and have never been involved in the world, I am not a soft persimmon who can be manipulated."

He raised his hand, clenched his fist, and let out a loud bang, setting off a gust of breeze in the hall, causing Li Ziyun's beard to fly.

Li Ziyun was shocked: "Brother Xian, you..."

Zhao Yu smiled and said: "Brother Haojiao knows that I am not without the power to restrain a chicken. The Changhe Sword Sect or the Heroes Conference is just a game to me. Now the world is about to change, although Changhe County is far away The influence of the rebellion cannot be seen in a short period of time, but the actions of the Jianghu Rangers have gradually revealed some evil consequences. If it is not curbed in time, I am afraid that this peaceful Changhe County will be gone forever."

He added: "Xizhou is originally a border, and there are barbarians outside. Now two of the three garrison troops have been transferred, leaving only one, which is already difficult. If the rangers are allowed to do whatever they want, leading to internal instability, the consequences..."

Li Ziyun looked shocked, pondered for a moment, couldn't help but nodded, and said: "What do you mean by Brother Yixian?"

Zhao Yu smiled and said: "I have my own abilities and I am not afraid of the Jianghu Rangers. But there are many Jianghu Rangers after all. With my ability alone, I am afraid that I can't catch them all. Besides, if the government can do this, it will be justifiable and justified." It can act as a deterrent. It is useless to me, but to my brother, it is a great achievement."

Then they had a detailed discussion with Li Ziyun and settled on a plan.

Zhao Yu now has his own rules for doing things. Or you can say: follow your heart's desires without exceeding the rules.

Within the proper framework, it can be done with ease.

This is the benefit of a lifetime of experience.

If he was really stupid, he would probably kill the Changhe Sword Sect at this time and wipe out all the members of the family, young and old, and kill all the chickens and dogs.

Leng Touqing's approach is to only look at the present. Zhao Yu's approach depends on the overall situation.

What he wants is not just to eliminate hidden dangers. What I want more is my own living environment, which is peaceful and satisfactory.

He didn't want to mess up, didn't want to be disturbed.

"Okay." Li Ziyun finally said, "I've agreed to this matter."

He added: "Early tomorrow morning, my brother will go to the county government to meet the prefect. At this time, my dear brother, just let go and do whatever you want. Once you finish your work, the government will take care of it."

Zhao Yu then stood up and bowed: "Then I will take my leave."

"Why don't you hold a candle and talk at night?" Li Ziyun stood up and tried to persuade him to stay.

Friendship with scholars is the so-called friendship between gentlemen. Li Ziyun was a gentleman to begin with, and his friendship with Zhao Yu was not related to financial interests. They are simply pleasing to the eye, and they admire each other very much.

Li Ziyun admires Zhao Yu's talent and his mentality of not bending for the powerful. Zhao Yu admired this man as a true official.

Therefore, when we often visit each other, we often talk about classics or practical matters, and we don't have to squint all night.

Zhao Yu shook his head: "My little brother plans to rush to the county government overnight to get a feel for it first."

After hearing this, Li Ziyun thought for a while and then stopped forcing him to stay: "That's fine. Get to know the basics earlier so you have a better idea and have more confidence. Come on, dear brother, I'll see you off for my brother's sake."

So they sent Zhao Yu to the door, bowed to each other, and then said goodbye.

...

Zhao Yu did not lie to Li Ziyun.

After leaving the county government office, he and A Da left the city and rode towards the county government.

The matter here is not over yet after talking to Li Ziyun. Zhao Yu planned to meet with the prefect to get some fresh air before Li Ziyun went to see the prefect tomorrow.

The friendship between Zhao Yu and Li Ziyun was the same as that of the prefect Wang Tao.

It can be said that Changhe County is lucky to have a prefect like Wang Tao, a county official like Li Ziyun, and hundreds of thousands of people in the county. It is also a blessing.

As mentioned in the previous article, the Great Qin Dynasty was declining. As the dynasty comes to an end, you can imagine what the political situation will be like with your toes. Looking at the thirty-three states in the world, there are countless counties and counties. How many prefects and county officials can be as upright as Wang Tao and Li Ziyun?

However, it was probably because of the end of the dynasty that such talented people appeared in remote areas like Changhe County. Because he did not want to join in the same trend, he was ostracized. There is no place for them in the prosperous land. Only in this remote border county, a place with little oil and water, can they have a place.

Otherwise, if the dynasty was at its peak and the road ahead was smooth, people like them would probably have entered the center early. How could we waste time in this remote border county?

You know, even Li Ziyun, who is only thirty years old, has already been the county magistrate here for ten years! You know, he was a young prodigy, the top pick of the year! First grade Jinshi!

And Wang Tao also came here together with Li Ziyun and became the county guard.

Zhao Yu didn’t know the details inside. But if you think about it, you can roughly guess - it's just that they were squeezed out together.

So it is Changhe County's luck.

They are here, no matter how remote and barren Changhe County is, no matter how declining the Great Qin Dynasty is, they can still stabilize the situation and allow hundreds of thousands of people in the entire county to live and work in peace and contentment!

Because of this, they were able to enter Zhao Yu's eyes and have friendship with Zhao Yu.

If he was a greedy and corrupt official, he would have been killed by Zhao Yu long ago and gone to meet the King of Hell.

It can be said that the decline of the Qin Dynasty turned out to be a good thing for Changhe County. Otherwise, if they were transferred away due to their political performance and replaced with corrupt officials, Changhe County might not know what it would become.

No more gossip.

All night long, by the next morning, Changhe City, the county capital, was in sight.

Why is Changhe County called Changhe? This is the place where the great river Gein passes!

In the Eight Wastelands of the Great Qin, there are three rivers running from west to east, directly into the sea. These three rivers all originate from Zhoushan. Zhoushan Mountain is the highest mountain in Daqin, stretching for countless miles and with peaks as high as I don’t know. The three-day long river originates from the northern foot of Zhoushan Mountain, crosses the grassland, and enters the Yinghai Sea. The middle one originates from the eastern foot of Zhoushan Mountain, runs through the central part of Daqin, and enters the East China Sea. The southern one starts from the southern foot of Zhoushan Mountain, runs through countless hills, and enters the South China Sea.

The geographical shape of Changhe County is very special, it is a long and narrow area running from north to south. It is seven hundred miles from north to south and only two hundred miles from east to west.

The northern end is adjacent to the Zhongjiang River, and the southern end is adjacent to the Nanhe River. It is sandwiched between two large rivers, hence the name Changhe.

The county capital, Changhe City, is located on the bank of Zhongjiang River at the northern end.

As for the Changhe Sword Sect, it is located on Yunshan Mountain by the river outside the city.

Changhe City has an extremely advantageous geographical location. Because it is adjacent to the Zhongjiang River, waterway transportation is developed. This is also the reason why the county government is located here.

As for the southern end, because this section of the Nanhe River in Changhe County has strong water and a large drop, it is a desperate situation.

Zhongjiang and Nanhe become farther apart as you go west. The farther you go east, the farther away you are. Only here in Changhe County, the distance between these two rivers is the shortest.

Changhe County has a special geographical location, not only because it is sandwiched between two rivers, but also because there is also a river on its eastern line. This river is naturally not comparable to the Nanhe River and the Zhongjiang River, but due to the terrain, the water is very strong and it is basically impossible to pass. The northern end of this river is connected to the Zhongjiang River, but the southern end is not connected to the Nanhe River. Changhe County runs north to south, but what is very different from other places is that Changhe County is higher in the south and lower in the north.

To the south is a mountain range that runs parallel to the Nanhe River. It is precisely because of this mountain range that the water level of the Nanhe River in Changhe County is particularly dangerous.

This river originates from this mountain range in the south, flows from south to north, and merges into the Zhongjiang River.

Therefore, Changhe County is actually isolated from the main body of Da Qin by three rivers. Although it belongs to Xizhou, it is actually an enclave.

As far as Zhao Yu knew, Changhe County was originally the habitat of Xirong. After the founding of the Qin Dynasty, the territory was expanded during its heyday, and the Xirong were driven into the branches at the eastern foot of Zhoushan Mountain. A county was established in this enclave, and then the population was moved. Originally it was probably used as a springboard to continue the conquest of Xirong and expand the Qin territory even more, but it was later shelved, probably because fighting in the mountains was too difficult.

So over the course of thousands of years, today's Changhe County was formed.

Zhao Yu is riding on the horse, his body is motionless, but he is actually vibrating the energy and blood, helping the horse under his crotch to recover its physical strength. After all, even though the horses of Da Qin were much better than the horses of Ming Dynasty in the previous life, running hundreds of miles in one night was probably unbearable.

As for Ada, he has his own true energy and has achieved innate cultivation. He can use his true energy to nourish the war horses, which is more convenient than Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu has never practiced Qi. All the acupuncture points on his body are far from being fully developed. Where is the excess qi and blood, which can be transformed into Lao Shizi's true qi? What's more, Zhao Yu doesn't like this so-called true energy.

The sound of horse hooves is neither fast nor slow.

The sky was about to break, and gradually, a few people were coming and going on this avenue. There are people from surrounding villages who are carrying burdens and going to the county to sell goods to make a living. There are also merchant fleets - although Changhe County is barren, it has one advantage, and that is medicinal materials. Because to the west is the remnant of Zhoushan Mountain, with old mountains and forests, rich in medicinal materials.

This can also be seen from Zhao Yu's net worth - he accounts for 60 to 70% of Changhe County's medical share, which makes him a very rich man.

The rich medical resources support half of the sky of Changhe County. In the entire Changhe County, at least one-fifth of the population makes a living by collecting herbs, making medicine and other processes.

This is no small amount. There are hundreds of thousands of people in Changhe County, one fifth, almost 100,000 people!

The number of people in the medical clinic directly under Zhao Yu is only a few thousand, but the number of people who indirectly depend on Zhao Yu for a living is at least tens of thousands.

Therefore, Zhao Yu's position in Changhe County is actually very important.

Of course, Zhao Yu accounted for such a large share not only because of his friendship with Wang Tao, the prefect, and Li Ziyu, the county magistrate of the county. More importantly, it's because Zhao Yu never breaks the law.

The tax that should be paid is not a penny. The wages that should be paid are always 10% higher than those of peers. The price for treating injuries is 10% lower than that of its peers.

Coupled with some secret methods, this can secure such a large industry.

Speaking of which, Zhao Yu is a good man in the eyes of the people. In the eyes of Wang Tao and Li Ziyun, he is a gentleman.

This is Zhao Yu's reputation.

"Young Master," Ada rode his horse by the side, looking around and said, "There are indeed many people in the Jianghu."

Along the way, the closer we get to the county government, the more wanderers we see. There are many people in twos and threes carrying knives and swords and looking unruly.

These gangsters were running rampant, and when the people saw them, they all shunned them like snakes and scorpions, and hurriedly gave way.

Zhao Yu couldn't help but frown slightly.

He nodded: "This so-called Heroes Conference is about to be held. It is natural that there will be so many people in the world."

Ada laughed: "Master, what kind of hero conference is this... Are they qualified to call themselves heroes?"

Ah Da was clearly disdainful: "Killing the enemy on the battlefield, defending the country, and opening up new territories are heroes. Managing a country, not closing the door at night, and not picking up things on the road is also a hero. Just like the young master, there are countless living people, and he allows many people to live and work in peace and contentment. Heroes. These people who can only sneak around and fight, what kind of bullshit heroes are they?"
