429,【Invitation】
So they rushed up together, shouted, held the rope with all their hands and feet, and then carefully pulled it up, while comforting the doll in the bucket. After the barrel finally rose from the well, their parents rushed over from the side and hugged it with tears.
The onlookers discussed in a lingering manner that the well should be surrounded by a railing.
Some elderly people came over and said to the eldest son: "Young master is good at martial arts. Thank you for your help, otherwise this child will be in danger."
The parents of the doll next to him also came over to thank him: "Thank you for your master's magical skills. You saved my doll and go to the house to sit."
So he invited Fang Chang and the villagers around him to go to his house for a drink.
It happened that it was time for dinner. If there was such a good thing, the villagers naturally would not refuse. They rushed towards the house one after another, saying that they should indeed suppress their shock.
Fang Chang accepted the invitation and walked in with them.
The villagers gave him to the master's seat, and then watched the little doll who had just been rescued from the well. The doll's mother set a fire to cook, steamed and cooked a few dishes, then warmed the wine and brought the wine and dishes together. Suddenly, the meal was filled with wine, and the villagers each kept making wine.
Two older people sat next to the side of the chief to accompany them to prevent the guests from being neglected.
The dishes during the meal are simple, but not simple.
The New Year's Eve has just passed, and the food prepared for the New Year has not been finished yet, so the hard dishes at the table are tight during the New Year and are covered with thin and popular fried meat on the surface. Cut them into a large slice and set them up, put them in a bowl and put them on the bottom of the potatoes, and steam them thoroughly. There are also fried tofu meatballs, which have more tofu and less meat, but they are mixed with two eggs and steam them. Then boil some sauce in a small pot with oil sauce, green onion and garlic, and pour them on top of the meatballs.
The rest are some fried eggs, stir-fried mushrooms, radish and cabbage, which are also rich. In addition, there is a large pot of sauerkraut. Although it is called sauerkraut, it is actually not sour at all. Instead, it is very crisp and very storage-resistant in winter and very refreshing.
Although the wine is bought from outside, it should be a private brew nearby. It is very turbid and has a strong taste but a little sour.
However, this is also a rare good thing for the villagers, so everyone was excited to eat wine and was very interested in talking and chatting. Of course, their topics often start with what they just did, and then they talked about from adding railings to the wells in the village to various places.
Fang Chang drank a sip of turbid wine and asked the old man next to him: "How is the village doing this New Year?"
The old man drank a sip of wine with a sip of wine, and the wrinkles on his forehead seemed to stretch a little. He heard Fang Chang's question, and he replied with a smile and hope: "Last year's harvest was very good, and this year was pretty good. Look at Zhuzi's New Year's goods, so many of them can be taken out to invite us to drink. How could this happen in the famine year when I was a child?"
"Of course, the imperial grain collected last year was a little less, and the price given by the grain merchants was good." The old man said slowly, "In the past, the harvest would be better in the year, and the grain prices would fall. When paying the grain, the officials would try every means to collect more, and finally calculate it in their hands that they would eat more, but they would still lose money when they exchanged for money."
"I heard that there were people who changed to Bo from this year and claimed to be the 'rebel army'. I saw soldiers not long ago. Anyway, it was a while since the chaotic period, and the grain collection tax was even delayed until winter. Although the people who collected grain in the town and county were still the same people, I have been much more restrained. I heard from the scholar that the scholar said that the 'the administration is a little clearer'. I just don't know how long it can last? After all, people are still the same people, and I hope this will be the case next year."
Speaking of this, the old man shook his head and sighed, holding the food without saying a word.
Fang Chang thought to himself that the rebels were really fast enough. Before he went down the mountain, he saw their troops passing by at the foot of the mountain. Now he had reached the north of the Central Plains. By this calculation, he had occupied most of the world. Tianxin was in the hearts of the people, and the orthodox rebels were already in hand. But he didn't know what the situation was in the imperial capital.
He said to the old man: "The dynasty will change, and it will be better for a few years. What will happen later depends on the fortune of the new dynasty."
The old man immediately came to ask for advice on what happened to the rebel army, where did they come from, and why they raised an army.
Fang Chang informed the chaos in the world and told the rebels about the rebels' positions, current forces, and their banners. The people chatting on the table stopped to talk and listened carefully, but no one spoke until he finished speaking.
After all, for the farmers on the table, things that are thousands of miles away are too far away, beyond their original cognition.
Xibi, Fang Chang refused the villagers' resentment and continued on the road.
This place is not far from the official road. Fang Chang was walking on the official road before, and when he heard the call for help from the village in the distance, he came to rescue the doll that fell from the well. After walking along the official road, Fang Chang found a big stone, walked over and took out a map in his bag and spread it on it.
On the map, four ink lines have been drawn. Although they do not intersect at the same place, the five intersections of the four lines are very close.
This is the location of the communication magic weapon found in the training hall of the enemy everywhere. He had sent the situation in this area to Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling, and the two protagonists of the Great Tribulation also said that they would mobilize their strength to focus on reconnaissance of that area.
Fang Chang recognized the direction, put the map back on, and continued walking along the official road.
He was going to go there in person to see and find the enemy's headquarters.
Although it can be learned from the information that the enemy has a treasure that can cover the location, as long as it exists, there will be traces. As long as this headquarters exists, it will inevitably interact with the surroundings and it is impossible to truly isolate it from the world.
After all, they have to issue orders and exert influence to subordinate forces everywhere in the world. Moreover, as the headquarters, during this period of confrontation, personnel and material exchanges are bound to be indispensable.
At this time, another letter flew from the sky.
Fang Chang unfolded the paper plane and read the information above carefully.
Recently, he and Liu Yuande have had a lot of exchanges with letters, all of which are about communicating the world. From Liu Yuande, he learned some of the current situation in the world and some information that Liu Yuande thought was more important. Liu Yuande also asked Fang Chang’s views and opinions on some matters with a consulting attitude.
Of course, the most important thing for the two to communicate is about the enemy's position.
The letter paper stated that the rebels and spies had successfully discovered some clues in the area informed by Fang Chang. So Liu Yuande had already begun to draw elite personnel from all over the country to concentrate on the other side, hide, and prepare to launch a raid one and a half months later.
He invited Fang Chang to participate.
