Chapter 0074 Provocation (3 / 4)



Xiao Rong nodded: "It's feasible."

Xiao Rong was thinking about what kind of character he should create. Although Yu Shaoxie tended to use this image flexibly, Xiao Rong felt that it would be better to finalize it from the beginning, otherwise what would happen if a joke was made in the future.

When he was halfway through his thoughts, he suddenly felt something was wrong. When he looked up, he saw Yu Shaoxie looking at him quietly. That look...how to put it, it was so affectionate that it made people get goose bumps.

Xiao Rong: "...Brother Yu?"

Yu Shaoxie chuckled and said, "Don't be so reserved in private from now on. You can call me brother like Cheng'er does."

Xiao Rong: “…………”

Then Yu Shaocheng would have a seizure.

After returning to his residence, Xiao Rong lay on his bed, feeling extremely exhausted today.

He emptied all his thoughts and turned himself into a dummy, staring blankly at the bed curtains, slowly recovering his energy.

However, before Xiao Rong could really relax, Ah Shu's angry voice came from outside: "I told you not to do that!"

Zhang Biezhi: "Why not? Mr. Xiao has met so many people today, why can't he meet me?!"

Xiao Rong: “…”

It was a pity that Xiao Rong didn't even have the energy to get angry today. After lying quietly for a while, he sat up numbly, waiting for Zhang Biezhi to rush in.

As expected, Ashu couldn't stop him at all. Zhang Biezhi ran in and saw Xiao Rong just sitting on the edge of the bed. He couldn't help but glare at Ashu, you really lied to me!

Ashu: “…”

Ahhhhhhhhh!

Just wait, wait for the day when I grow taller than the king!

Zhang Biezhi was like a firecracker outside, but he knew how to control himself when he came in. He told Xiao Rong why he came, and the more he spoke, the more aggrieved he felt. However, he knew that he could not annoy Xiao Rong, otherwise there would be no hope for this matter.

Xiao Rong listened for a long time with an expressionless face. After he understood, he raised his hand to let Zhang Biezhi stop: "Do you want to learn how to be a good person from me?"

Zhang Biezhi: "I am learning how to be an official, Mr. Xiao. I don't want to kill people with my hands anymore. I want to kill people with my mouth like you do."

Xiao Rong: “…………”

Nonsense, when has he ever killed anyone with his mouth?

Under normal circumstances, Xiao Rong would have laughed out loud. Zhang Biezhi's desire to learn strategy was no different from his own desire to learn how to fly over eaves and walk on walls. Both were impossible.

But he didn't have the energy to laugh now. Sitting on the edge of the bed, he stared at Zhang Biezhi quietly and suddenly thought of a question.

Which one is more impossible: Zhang Biezhi learned strategy or Zhang Biezhi actually had the idea of ​​learning strategy.

Xiao Rong felt it was the latter. From the moment he had this idea, he was no longer the Zhang Biezhi who lived in a high-profile manner and died in a low-profile manner that Xiao Rong had read about in history books.

Just like Yu Shaoxie, a man who should have been buried long ago, is now not only alive and kicking, but can also say corny words to him. …

Xiao Rong lowered his eyes but raised his chin slightly. People's destiny had long changed. He really shouldn't look at people with old eyes. Moreover, whatever Zhang Biezhi wanted to do was his business. Xiao Rong shouldn't stop him. Who knows, maybe Zhang Biezhi is not only talented in fighting, but after a turn of fate, he might become the first genius in Zhenbei Army who is both civil and military. ...Although that scene is really hard to imagine.

With a hum, Xiao Rong said under Zhang Biezhi's nervous gaze, "If you don't mind running errands for me, doing personal things, and staying up late with me, then you can come to me, but you can't be the guard commander, you can be the deputy guard commander."

Zhang Biezhi: “…”

He was actually asked to be the deputy of the mercenary Di Fa Zeng. He, he would endure it for now and settle the score with Di Fa Zeng later! ...

Just like that, Xiao Rong had two more powerful men by his side.

Zhang Biezhi was very noisy, but he had one good point: he respected Xiao Rong and would not quarrel in front of him. He only quarreled with Di Fazeng and Ashu.

Needless to say, Ah Shu, these two people are almost mortal enemies. Although Di Fazeng is Zhang Biezhi's superior, relying on his brother-in-law being Jian Qiao, he doesn't take Di Fazeng seriously at all. But Di Fazeng is the kind of person who doesn't care about anything unless it's a big deal. Even if Zhang Biezhi is arrogant in front of him, he just raises his eyelids and continues to look at the ground half-dead.

Zhang Biezhi was almost irritated to death by his ignoring attitude.

No matter how much noise there was, Xiao Rong would not pay any attention. He was the Yin of Chenliu, not the head of a kindergarten, so he had to take care of the fights among the children in the kindergarten.

As summer comes to an end and autumn is approaching, the whole Chenliu becomes busy.

Baibao Street has officially opened. There will be activities three days before the opening. If you spend a certain amount of money, you can get a gift coupon from the shopkeeper of Baibao Street. Take the gift coupon to the Baibao Street manager's office to get the corresponding gifts, which are useful to everyone, such as fabrics, fresh meat, spices, etc.

If we don’t give them food, the Zhenbei Army is now busy collecting autumn grain and not a single grain of rice can be distributed.

The place where the officials were in charge was also staffed by officers and soldiers, and among the several permanent officials, two were actually from foreign races.

Although the lone foreigners would not cause the people to flee, they were still scary. After explaining until his mouth was dry, the Central Plains manager hired two 11-12-year-old children to repeat what he said, saying that these two foreigners were prepared for the future foreign caravans. You should know Qiuci, Shule, Yutian, and Tianzhu, right? They are all Buddhist countries. Their caravans will bring very fragrant spices and food that we have never seen before. When the time comes, let these two foreign managers take over from them, and we just need to buy things.

The people listened, but they seriously doubted whether they could afford to buy the goods from the Western Regions. However, it didn't matter at the moment. As long as they knew that these two foreign races would not suddenly become ferocious, it would be enough.

Scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans. Although Xiao Rong wanted to make money, he could not praise business too much. So when Baibao Street opened, no one in the palace went to celebrate. Only the wealthy families each sent one or two representatives, and the common people who followed congratulated each other.

After burning the firecrackers, Song Shuo walked around in for a while and bought a pair of shoes and a set of inkstones. Xiao Rong didn't go in to check out the situation until the third day.

There have been no troublemakers so far because there are not too many people here. However, when foreign merchant caravans pour in in the future, all kinds of frictions will be inevitable.

Everything was pretty much as Xiao Rong had imagined. The only thing that seemed a little new to him was the two kids from the management office who helped explain. After tilting their heads and watching for a while, Xiao Rong turned around and went back to the palace.
