"The Western Regions still belong to the Li family."
Gently spit out the tasteless licorice root chewed in your mouth.
"This should be a contract reached between Master Xuanzang and the emperor and empress a long time ago.
My ancestors told me before that the emperor and the empress did not value the Western Regions very much, they just wanted to see the Western Regions as a place that could be supplemented by the Tang Dynasty's plunder. Later, they found that the trade from the Western Regions was not bad, so they started The idea of maintaining this business path.
However, it is not worth the loss for Datang to pay a huge price to defend the Western Regions.
Therefore, Master Xuanzang said at that time, whoever will go to hell if I don’t go to hell, if the Tang Dynasty can’t guarantee the people in the Western Regions to live a safe life, he is willing to use his Dharma Xiangzong as a pioneer, even if the bones are used as a way. To provide a possible good future for the people of the Western Regions.
At that time, His Majesty said that the Western Regions without the Li family, no matter how chaotic it was, would be like Abi Hell, so what would it have to do with the Tang Dynasty?
At that time, Master Xuanzang wanted to convert a son of the Li family into the Xiangzong of Dharma, and was willing to regard him as the suzerain. In this way, the Western Regions had a relationship with the Li family and belonged to the community of interests you mentioned.
It's a pity that at that time Master Xuanzang's Faxiang sect was not well-known and his strength was low. Not to mention no one from Li's family was willing to be ordained and become a monk, and no one was willing to go to the Western Regions to be the master of some Buddhist country. the master.
Until you showed up on the streets of Chang'an with Naha, Master Xuanzang, the old monkeys suddenly discovered that they seemed to have another choice.
Yunchu, why do you think the Da Ci'en Temple will help you, and your every request can be satisfied?Do you think that a small miscellaneous official can go directly to your majesty, and there will be such a weird thing as a baby prince falling into your arms?
All the benefits given in the early stage are for greater gains in the future.
Now, it's time for people to harvest. "
When Yun Chu heard Wen Ruan say this, he couldn't help laughing, patted Wen Ruan's hand and said, "Don't think about it, things are not what you think."
Rou Rou looked at Yun Chu and smiled wryly: "I know, to tell the truth, it doesn't sound good."
Yunchu stepped on the solid tunnel: "Chang'an City is real."
Gentlely said: "Do you really not care about being used?"
Yun Chu said: "Think about it, is the current Western Regions better than the Western Regions that were prone to rebellion before?"
Gentle and serious: "It's good for Datang."
Yun Chu smiled and said: "Don't let me recite the poem about the poor bones beside the Wuding River, especially the man in the dream in the boudoir, it is a good one."
"The Wuding River is in Qinghai."
"Don't pay too much attention to it, I'll just make a random metaphor, in short, don't kill Tang people, don't kill my brother.
Datang is good, that is, all of us are good, even if nothing else is lost, it is a great thing to be safe.
This is how the world works. We work hard to live a better life. Today is better than yesterday, tomorrow is better than today, and the day after tomorrow is better than tomorrow. If you accumulate little by little, one day you will find that we What you do is not in vain.
As for other things, to be honest, it has nothing to do with us. We are working hard towards our goal. As for other things, leave them to God and Buddha to judge.
We are not great because of them, it should be because of us that this world makes them great.
Since the history of China, there have been people who worked hard, those who worked hard, those who pleaded for the people, and those who sacrificed their lives to seek the law... Although it is the so-called "history" that is equivalent to the genealogy of emperors and generals, They often can't hide their brilliance, this is the backbone of Huaxia.
We are the backbone, and they are the fat. When will it be up to those fat to decide whether the giant Huaxia can stand up?
There is no fairness in the world, and all good things must be obtained through competition.
However, competition requires ability, means, and accumulation. Most people don't have these things. At this time, we need people with excess ability to help them deploy them.
So that everyone can live their lives.
It is the most stupid not to give in and not to retreat, and then everyone just sits and waits for the result to come. "
"So, we're fucking saints?"
Yun Chu smiled and said: "It's not that we want to be saints, we just enjoy the process of using the money that originally belonged to the arrogance and lust of the rich to feed the poor.
Well, we are not idiots who are exploited by others, nor are we high-spirited saints, just because the world needs people like you and me, we just happened to appear, there is nothing strange about it. "
The scene of the two talking about the world was really warm. Even the people outside, Mr. Liu, who saw it, felt that the atmosphere of getting along with their old friends was really rare, and it was several grades higher than their chatting scene. .
In previous years, every summer, the whole city of Chang'an would be smelly, mainly because there were too many large animals such as cattle, horses and camels.
Everywhere is full of the stench of large animals and the smell of things rotting at high temperature.
The most important thing is that the period from spring to early summer is the peak period of plague.
Therefore, rich people are unwilling to live in the city when summer comes.
It’s different now. For one thing, there are no stagnant water pools in Chang’an City. During the construction last year, Yunchu and Rourou have connected all the large pools by using water channels with height differences. After the stagnant water becomes living water, mosquitoes It has been reduced by more than [-]%.
As for rat infestation, it has now become a specialized business in Chang'an City.
There was an old man in Qinglongfang, he did not know where he got a litter of civet cats. The old man had no children, so he raised these civet cats as his sons and daughters. When the civet cats were young, the old man squeezed them through his teeth Feed the cats with food.
Until one day, a raccoon cat held a mouse in its mouth and put it in front of the old man, inviting the old man to eat together, the old man's eyes suddenly lit up...
The square is collecting mice, no matter whether they are dead or alive, one or two dollars.
Not only the Fangzheng in Qinglongfang collects rats, but all the [-] Fangzhengs in Chang'an City accept rats, and the price is fair.
After a month, the old man stopped doing the work that he used to do that had something to do with the lotus.
He is old and frail, so whether it is planting lotus, harvesting lotus pods, or digging lotus roots, it is a huge burden for him.
The old man now has six cats, six cats that are very good at catching mice. If there are mice in other people's homes, they will hire the old man's cats to catch mice. .
Of course, if you catch long worms occasionally, you will be charged extra.
Thus, an old man covered in cats appeared in Chang'an City. He would go to the cafeteria to find a corner to eat a delicious breakfast in the morning. After breakfast, he would go to the bathhouse to take a hot bath. Get some sleep, and when the sun sets, it's time for the family to make money.
This kind of good thing can only happen in Chang'an City, and more and more industries that have never been heard of before are also appearing in Chang'an City.
This kind of thing will not be recorded in history books, and occasionally appears in some picture novels, with some weirdness and some magic, in short, it is quite beautiful.
The construction of Chang'an City is still going on in an orderly manner, and there are many unheard of good things in the market that are slowly growing. As long as this good situation can last for a few more years, Chang'an will change beyond recognition.
When Yunchu was walking between the squares and cities, he could keenly feel the changes in Chang'an City.
The most important thing is that the city is slowly changing to his familiar appearance.
Whether it's the sanitation workers who got up early, or the unscrupulous people standing at the crossroads with an iron whistle in their mouths and beeping to direct the carriage, or a large group of people with green cloth handkerchiefs on their heads and hanging on their shoulders. A female textile worker with a calico bag filled with food boxes will bring Yunchu back to a distant memory.
The bastard who sells mutton cakes likes to push his fat and amazing wife towards Yunchu intentionally or unintentionally.
The young guy turned into a greasy and wretched man, and the beautiful proprietress who worked for a wealthy family when she was young became a tiger king tank. This is what Yunchu would like to see. You can also treat each other with courtesy, and ask with a smile, how are you doing recently.
People in the Tang Dynasty value righteousness and despise money. Yunchu's greeting brought the proprietress Tiger King back to that period of youth in an instant.
At that time, the beauty was like jade, and the son was like a dragon. Now, the son is still like a dragon, but the beauty has been submerged in daily necessities.
No matter what, Yunchu still got two baked naan cakes filled with minced mutton, each weighing a pound.
Seeing the boss's pale face, Yun Chu pretended to give money, but was blocked by the woman's life.
This situation is far more comfortable than Yunchu's dealing with the emperor, empress, and prince.
So, he said, "Come back tomorrow."
Big things are nothing more interesting than watching the two couples quarrel. The days are long and you can be happy for a long time.
Yu Xiurong was sitting in the pile of cotton, still pulling out the cotton seeds with her hands, her scarf was covered with cotton fluff, and the yard of Yun's house was piled up with pure white cotton.
A lynx with a white beard walked past the pile of cotton with trembling legs. Its gaudy fur was covered with cotton. Yu Xiurong kicked it. The surprise attack fell through.
Yun Chu supported Yu Xiurong who was about to fall, tore off the cotton wool from her head, and handed her a [-]-jin cake with mutton.
"Eat it while it's hot. Your husband bought it back with his hue. It's delicious!"
Yu Xiurong leaned against Yun Chu's arms while holding the pancake with winking eyes and said, "If your husband wants to rely on his appearance to exchange money, you can get more good things from this concubine."
Yun Chu slapped his wife's buttocks and said, "The old god just said a while ago that you indulged too much."
Cui Yao, who was also peeling cottonseeds in the cotton pile next door, roared and left, and even kicked Fei Jiu when she passed by.
Cui Shi was not affected, she opened her mouth missing a tooth with a smile and urged the maids and servants in the yard to work quickly.
Seeing his son coming out of the study, Yu Xiurong stood up straight and whispered to Yunchu, "Husband's mood has changed?"
Yun Chu smiled, and wanted to slap Yu Xiurong's ass again. Seeing his son coming straight towards him, he withdrew his hand and said, "It's natural. From now on, our family will follow the doctrine of the mean."
