Chapter 99 Infighting
This ** is not a big deal. There are no worries, life and death can be recorded. This is an opportunity to show off the ancestors. Who doesn't want to?
I'm moved. Everyone who heard it is heartwarming. Even if you can die for the country without compensation, who doesn't want to fight for such treatment if there is a chance? It is not surprising that there is such a high standard.
"Okay, as long as the family is safe and sound, I have no regrets even if I fight for this life."
"It is recorded and circulated in the countryside, and may even be passed down through the ages. Refugees like us have such an opportunity.
"What an honor it is to be an ancestor."
The world is full of benefits, and the world is full of profits. Red sandalwood has read this sentence for a long time. Although not everything can be solved with sharp words, it is understandable that people like this thing. Therefore, she took advantage of human nature. Moreover, it worked.
"You don't worry that they only pursue fame and fortune. If someone gives them greater benefits in the future, will they betray you?" Wu Cang Juelan's voice floated into her ears with a light smile in this excited voice.
Red sandalwood said calmly, "No, don't forget that they didn't get any promise before I said this, but they still came, which shows that their heart is good. Moreover, while I give them benefits, I also let Yan Yun give them spiritual food. In this way, it is difficult for them to fully benefit.
He laughed and scolded in a low voice, "Amu, you are really treacherous."
Red sandalwood accepted it calmly, and Wu Cang Juelan shook his head with a smile.
Leng Guyun's excitement is no less than those applicants. This time, he really followed the right person. This teenager seems to be light and estranged, but in fact everything is under his control. After calming down, he said, "Mr. You doesn't worry about what if the standard is too high and not many people can do it?"
"In the plan, but not in the brave, the soldiers in the elite, but not in the many. What I want is an elite army. They should have the ability of one to ten, and the quantity requirements are not high. Red sandalwood walked and said, "What's more, Yan Yun has gone to print poems. I believe that with the widespread spread of these poems, more and more people will come to the call."
After listening to her, Leng Guyun immediately said, "Then we can't waste those who have been brushed down. Even if we can't enter the elite army, it's good to let them be ordinary soldiers."
Red Sandalwood looked back at him and praised him with a smile in his eyes, "Gu Yun is really worthy of being a general."
Leng Guyun said politely, "It's not as good as one-thousandth of Mr. You."
Red sandalwood shook his head and said nothing more. He just said, "Gu Yun, you stay here to arrange the new recruits. Let's go and see if Xi Yan is ready."
Leng Guyun bowed and said, "Yes, if Mr. You has any instructions, then send someone to inform Gu Yun."
Red sandalwood nodded and walked out first. Along the way, the applicants who were still in line bowed their heads and bowed their respects.
Ge Xiyan's shop is very large. Although it is only a rice shop, it also occupies several shops, which is worthy of being the richest man. When several people went to Ge Xiyan's store, Yan Yun had already left.
Ge Xiyan led them to the inner hall. After the servant held the tea, he rubbed his arms and patted his legs without image and said, "I'm exhausted. I've been so busy on this day. I haven't been so tired in the past few decades."
Wu Cang Juelan raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly: "I'm afraid that someone is not dozens of years old, right? Just more than ten years. After sitting and enjoying it for so long, it's time to contribute to society.
Ge Xiyan pouted, "It doesn't hurt to sit and talk."
Red sandalwood interrupted the conversation between the two in time. She took a good sip of tea: "Xi Yan, I know you work very hard, but no matter how tired you are, it's worth it. Well, let's talk about the current situation.
Ge Xiyan lost a look to Wu Cang Juelan: Look, they can talk a lot. In return, Wu Cang Juelan shook his head and smiled and cleared his throat and said, "After coming out of the city owner's mansion, I told my servants to prepare the porridge, and then ran to another merchant without stopping. It is gratifying that those merchants have adjusted the price back to the usual level, and not only that, but even a few merchants' selling price is still below normal, and Boss Hu even pressed the price to a point higher than the purchase price. In addition, the price reduction of rice cloth has also caused the price reduction in other industries. Some conscientious people have done what they can to help the disaster victims.
Hao Lianliu said in a gratifying soft voice, "This is really good. I didn't expect that there was no lack of generous people at the critical moment."
"There are many bad people in this world, but good people are also on a huge scale." After saying that, Red Sandalwood mentioned another irrelevant thing: "By the way, at a normal speed, according to the time we left Tandu, we should arrive in two days, right?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Ge Xiyan is not sure why.
Red sandalwood looked at him and said, "Then in two days, a pair of people will come to Chu Lingcheng. Xi Yan, they have enough silver to pay for this purchase of food. You can arrange it then."
"Is there enough silver?" Ge Xiyan frowned and showed signs of anger: "Brother, what do you mean? Can't I even afford to spend this little money? Or do I do these things for those cold yellow and white things?
In the face of Ge Xiyan's sudden indignation, Red Sandalwood held his forehead and explained faintly, "Xiyan, calm down. I didn't mean that."
"What do you mean?" He turned his head to one side and said angrily without looking at her.
Red sandalwood was about to open his mouth, but an evil and smiling voice came in: "Silly boy, Amu is thinking about you. You don't care how much you spend to help her and the refugees, but your old man cares, and your family cares. Who will do business where businessmen value profits and have no profit? The Ge family can become the first businessman of the five countries. In such a family, I'm afraid that no matter how strong the family relationship is, I have to bow my head in front of interests.
Wu Cang Juelan gave Red Sandalwood a bright smile and continued to Ge Xiyan, who had completely calmed down after listening to his words, "Xi Yan, your attitude can't determine the attitude of your whole family. Therefore, you can't pay for the purchase of grain. This is not a small amount, and a large number of printed poems can't be afforded in the long run. However, poetry can cooperate, and you will not suffer losses. Even if it is free in the early stage of the war, you can get it back after the fame goes out. The gold and silver given to you by the lord of the city wants you to buy military grain and weapons, which cannot be used for disaster relief. Therefore, it is the best way to accept the silver sent by Amu.
He knew so clearly that the red sandalwood frowned slightly. Why did she think of him without missing a word? Is she so easy to be seen through?
Ge Xiyan was also silent after hearing this. He could not represent his whole family, and he had to bow his head for many things. He doesn't care so much, but his friends have thought about him. If you have a friend like this, what do you want? At that moment, he walked to the two of them, held one hand, one left and one right, and said, "Brother, even if I, Ge Xiyan, fight for this life, I will support you to the end!"
Red sandalwood and Wu Cang Juelan looked at each other, then grabbed their hands in the same motion, gently pulled them in front of them, and then the two got up at the same time.
Hearing the howl of 'Ouch', Ge Xiyan, who fell on the table and chair, covered his stomach and complained, "It's too much. You have gone too much! Unexpectedly, he killed him when his affectionate was revealed. It's so inhumane."
Red sandalwood said lightly to the people in the room, "It's almost time. Everyone, let's go and serve porridge."
Then, no matter who is full of aggrieved face, step on foot and go out. At this time, dusk has arrived.
"Hey, wait for me." Ge Xiyan covered her bumped stomach and followed up. She wiped a handful of tears and said, "Brother, I promise I will never doubt you again. Wow, Wulan, I was wrong. Wait for me."
The people in front of him walked freely, and his wailing was obviously ignored by Hong Guoguo.
There are many places to serve porridge, and they are set up in the most places for refugees. Ge Xiyan's people were responsible for serving porridge, and the people sent by Leng Guyun maintained order. In fact, they are just patrolling. After all, they don't have so many people.
When the porridge was served, the red sandalwood ordered them to tell the refugees by the roadside that it was porridge all the way, and asked them to tell more people.
So when the red sandalwood walked back to the street, what they saw was that many ragged people flocked to the same place. The scene was spectacular, and it was not more than visiting any diluted treasures.
Ge Xiyan patted his chest and said gladly, "Brother, I said why don't you walk with the porridge-giving people? It's really wise. With so many people crowded, even if it is not squeezed into meat cakes, it will not feel good all over. Brother, do you know fortune-telling? Why are you so presed?"
Red sandalwood followed the crowd and directly ignored such a retarded problem. Lan, who was not afraid to hit him, said coldly, "You can expect such a result from the perspective of normal people's thinking. Unfortunately, you can't do it."
"What?" Ge Xiyan muttered in a low voice and despised his IQ. Everyone couldn't help laughing.
When you reach the first porridge site, it has been surrounded by three inner and outer three layers, leaving only a passage dominated by soldiers. However, it was not the refugees waiting to serve porridge, but the crowd onlookers in Chu Lingcheng. The refugees, at the invitation of the soldiers, lined up in a long row waiting to get porridge, steamed buns and rice.
The eyes of the masses were placed in the pergola where the porridge was served, and the red sandalwood and other idle people did not attract attention when they arrived. They chose the most empty place to stand next to the soldiers who formed the passage and pay attention to the pergola with the people around them.
"Hey, do you really think you can give porridge? Free of charge?" A man next to the red sandalwood said to the person next to him, and the person next to him happened to be red sandalwood.
"Can." She said indifferently and affirmatively.
