I can see the book of life and death

Chapter 21: Years of hunger, people eat each other

"rebellion?"

"Misappropriation of family property?"

Zhang Mingtu let out a heavy breath, and the anger in his chest did not stop, but became more intense.

He loves peace and doesn't like fighting.

All his martial arts skills were cultivated in his family, he never argued with others and was always kind to others.

As a result, fighting is inevitable in this world.

The family has always been kind to others, and took the initiative to give up a large portion of its profits in order to make good friends with fellow practitioners and deal with people from all walks of life.

As a result, he made a lot of money every day, but still attracted attention, and finally made a wedding dress for someone else.

"Aren't people allowed to live well in this world?"

"Aren't you allowed to do anything that changes your status?"

Zhang Mingtu recalled the scene in his last memory of thousands of arrows being fired.

Thinking of the desperate and angry expression of the patriarch Zhang Jiji at the end.

There was also a fire burning slowly in Zhang Mingtu's heart.

The burning made his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys all feel a dull pain.

"Aren't you going to give me a way to survive?"

Zhang Mingtu felt that he had retreated many times. When he encountered gangsters in the restaurant, he took the initiative to retreat and invited many escorts to stay in the restaurant, thus eliminating the fight invisible.

As a result, after operating Ping An for ten years, he was kidnapped and extorted for the formula.

After being tortured, he was killed with a knife.

Later, he chose to give the formula to his family. As a result, as the family's power gradually grew, it also attracted covetous attention.

The other party not only wants the formula, but also the wealth accumulated by the Zhang family for ten years.

"If the old road doesn't work, then I will take a new road. You are the one who forced me to do this."

Zhang Mingtu gritted his teeth, realizing that he would not get far if he kept a low profile.

Strength and wealth must be equal, otherwise in this era, you will be the fat in the eyes of others, and everyone will want to come and take a bite.

"Force is fundamental!"

Apparently, Zhang Mingtu, the future person in the Book of Life and Death who writes his own life, also thinks so.

The most detailed thing written in the book of life and death is the growth of force, how to cleanse the marrow and exchange blood, connect all the meridians, and generate internal energy from the outside to the inside.

The internal conversion is detailed and written very carefully.

On the other hand, Zhang Mingtu was also secretly frightened despite not much description.

In the year 833 of the Great Xia calendar, heavy rains continued for several months.

The river embankment collapsed and flooded the entire county, causing countless casualties.

The victims had no food and riots broke out.

It was also under this premise that the county magistrate at that time could easily label the Weiyuan Escort Agency as a traitor and declare it a traitor.

The army immediately surrounded Zhangjia with water, and everyone from top to bottom was destroyed.

Disasters spread everywhere and rebellions broke out.

Well, the higher authorities don’t want anyone to be rebellious, and they will be rebellious.

Looking back, Zhang Mingtu couldn't help but feel ridiculous for being in the middle of the game.

It is actually possible to suspect that the contemporary members of the Zhang family advocated basic rebellion.

The armor and weapons received by the family are all military standard weapons, as well as special crossbows.

Although there are only forty or fifty, it is enough to sentence everyone to death and kill nine tribes.

"The place is too small to raise a dragon!"

Zhang Mingtu sighed secretly in his heart.

If in his previous life there was a local enterprise that could sell its products throughout the province, and possibly even across the country, it would definitely receive strong support.

Just like the Nanshan Pizza Hut mentioned in the previous life, it really got the support of Uncle Ji.

But here, everything will be confiscated directly from above.

A century-old dynasty, a thousand-year-old family.

In the hearts of many people, they have a family more than a country.

"The river bank collapsed..."

Zhang Mingtu looked at the disaster that was not described much in the book of life and death. His heart was trembling, but he also felt uncontrollable discomfort.

Among the powers of heaven and earth, water and fire are the most ruthless and terrifying.

His mother fled because of the floods in Jiujiang County.

My grandfather also died on the way to escape. Although Zhang Mingtu had never experienced the flood, he listened to his mother Wang Yulan's stories every day and felt uneasy in his heart.

"Why did the embankment collapse? Doesn't the imperial court send people to reinforce it every year?"

There are many floods in Jiangnan West Road. It is known as the land of plenty, but floods are also associated with it every year.

Even with cutting-edge science and technology in later generations, floods are inevitable.

Therefore, no matter in the previous life or in this life, the imperial court would allocate silver taels every year to repair the dams on Jiangnan West Road.

Many of the young men in the Weiyuan Escort Bureau went to build dams.

Sometimes there are frequent floods. In addition to the officers and soldiers guarding various passes, the escorts of the Weiyuan Escort Bureau will also be assigned the task of guarding some embankments that may burst to provide early warning.

Zhang Ming's map of the entire Jiangnan West Road is uncertain, but every household in Jianyi has access to water, and those who don't know how to do it can't even go far out.

Because there are rivers and banks everywhere, you have to swim around before you can go very far.

"When the flood broke out, didn't the imperial court open a warehouse to provide food relief?"

Dengyuntu asked in his mind, but thinking about what the county magistrate's son had done, he felt that these things happened as a matter of course.

Taking history as a mirror, we can learn about new changes.

There are many records of this in previous movies, TV series, movie novels, and even history books.

Zhang Mingtu has seen too many things: reselling grain in granaries, enriching his own pockets when building dams, and using power for personal gain...

Whether it's building dikes or managing granaries, this is a first-rate job.

Even in modern times, management in this area is quite difficult, and some problems often arise, let alone in ancient times.

In ancient times, guarding warehouses and building embankments without any skill is simply telling fairy tales.

As for the court's inquiry into the granary, there may be insufficient food in the granary or the dam collapsed after the dam was built, causing problems.

As long as there is no problem on my watch, then it will be fine. Even if there is a problem on my watch, there is always a way to deal with it.

The lesson that mankind has learned from history is that mankind will not learn lessons.

No one thinks there is anything wrong with what we are doing now, and no one thinks there will be any problems in the future.

Zhang Mingtu secretly matched his guesses with what would happen in the future, and found that his guesses were almost the same.

It was obviously an extremely tragic thing, but Zhang Mingtu inexplicably thought of a very famous saying in the history book. The words were quite simple, but it shocked people's hearts.

"When we are hungry every year, people eat each other!"

"History is always surprisingly similar, and history keeps repeating itself."

The fire in my heart is burning brightly and cannot be calmed down.

The killing intent in his heart surged crazily, and in Zhang Mingtu's mind, the tiger demon formed by the Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist became more and more wanton.

But Zhang Mingtu felt empty in his heart and felt inexplicably powerless.

The fist was powerful, and the tiger demon roared ferociously, but it didn't know where to pounce.

With his mind at a loss, Zhang Mingtu walked around randomly, and he didn't know when he arrived at the martial arts arena.

When he came back to his senses, he saw the one-armed old man looking at him with a smile, his posture gentle and his steps light.
