I don't want to be king

Chapter 255 The Northern Expedition

Chapter 255 The Northern Expedition
Wei Yishan said loudly, "My lord entered the capital city to serve the king, our army of Sanhe is a division of benevolence and righteousness, they have come from a long distance, they are exhausted by boats and vehicles, they should naturally go out to meet them.

But they dared not to open the door, refused me Sanhe officers and soldiers from the city gate, and even shot arrows at us.

I also hope that the prince will forgive me! "

After speaking, he also knelt down.

"It's unreasonable, this is not taking this king seriously,"

Lin Yi said to Yong'an Chief Envoy, "You are Du Rong?"

"My next official, Du Rong, see the lord!"

Du Rong bowed again and again.

The officials behind him shouted, "My lord is a thousand years old!"

"Chitose?"

Lin Yi snorted coldly, "If you can live to be 70 years old, you will be Amitabha Buddha. I'm afraid that you will be pissed off sooner or later, and none of you can worry about it.

Mr. Ho. "

"exist."

He Jixiang behind him rushed out to respond.

Lin Yi said, "You and Master Du should be old acquaintances, give him lessons, enlighten him well, let them all understand the current situation clearly, and don't do anything stupid.

Otherwise, the king will be very angry, and the consequences will be very serious. "

Without waiting for He Jixiang to reply, Du Rong said loudly, "It is our good fortune to serve the prince, and we must not have half-hearted intentions!"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Don't be so full of words, everything still depends on actual actions, what's the use of just talking."

After speaking, he patted the donkey's belly with his legs and continued to go to the city.

The millennium-old city of Wulin City, a land of golden powder since ancient times, is densely populated, houses are close to each other, and bluestone roads criss-cross.

Except for the houses near the city gate that were affected by the Sanhe army's attack on the city, no other places were damaged. There were dense crowds standing on both sides of the street, unwillingly being cleared by officers and soldiers with knives and guns.

Looking at the officers and soldiers carrying the "rat" flag in the street is very puzzled!
Barbarians are indeed barbarians, and they treat mice as good things!

However, after they saw the officers and soldiers on both sides kneeling on one knee, they all followed suit.

Otherwise, they would all kneel down, leaving themselves alone to "stand out from the crowd", wouldn't they be courting death?
After some children were forcibly pressed down, they cried out in a daze, and they tried their best to cover the children's mouths, not daring to let the children cry.

"A wicked feudal society."

As an exploiter, Lin Yi couldn't help but let out a sigh.

He really wants to run into capitalism at all costs and let these people be workers!
It may not be possible to be a superior person, but improving production relations can indeed improve the living standards of the people.

Kneeling at the entrance of an alley, Pork Rong said to the general butcher next to him, "I just said, the prince will definitely come."

After waiting for the butcher and the prince's guards, he raised his head, and said with righteous indignation, "He prince is too kind, I should kill all these northerners according to my intention, but he is so disrespectful to the prince !"

This time the Sanhe army went out, which was different from the past.

In the past, what they captured were abandoned cities, and there were not many people left. They could do whatever they wanted to do with such a huge city.

However, coming to Yongan this time is different.

This is a prosperous place, everything is in order, and each house has its owner.

Sanhe people like them couldn't find a place to live at night.

What's more, the inns here are also quite expensive. How dare you ask for a hundred copper coins for a room!
So, now they are the same as the officers and soldiers, sleeping on the street, hiding in the gates of the city or in the corners outside the walls of the courtyards of rich families.

The most aggrieved thing is that these locals actually call them "Southern barbarians".

According to Sanhe's law, they can't beat people casually!
Be as frustrated as you want!
Zhu Rourong said unhappily, "I am also from the north, are you going to kill me?"

The butcher smiled and said, "That can't be done."

Zhu Rourong snorted coldly, "When you arrive in Ankang City, you bumpkin should have a chance to experience it, don't act like you haven't seen the world every day, do you think this Wulin City is good enough?
To tell you the truth, this is a thousand miles away from the capital! "

Jiang the butcher said in surprise, "It's better than Wulin City?"

He was really startled.

He has been to Xunyang and Tancheng successively. He thought it was a big city in the world, but after he came to Wulin City, he realized that these places are not comparable to Wulin City!
In his heart, the Wulin City in front of him is already the most prosperous place in the world.

The capital is even better than Wulin City, so what should it look like?
Zhurourong laughed and said, "Only such a place is worthy of our prince!"

The butcher gritted his teeth and said, "Then I must go to have a look. I won't go back this time. Let's just collect live pigs in Wulin City to restock. I'm still short of [-] catties."

Pork Rong smiled and said, "You can think clearly, live pigs in Wulin City are more expensive than Sanhe, three copper coins more per catty!
Moreover, you have to find someone to kill and find a place to dry, which will cost a lot of money. "

The butcher frowned and said, "What can we do then?
Still running all the way back?
Not to mention the time delay, the shipping fee will also go up, let alone cost-effective.

If you are willing, this time we partner up, you will only have [-] catties left.

Master Shanqi said last time that butcher shops don’t necessarily require pork. "

Zhurourong said, "Are you stupid?

Still want beef? "

The butcher shook his head and said, "There are no less hunters in Yong'an than Sanhe and Nanzhou. Many times the hunters can't sell the price, so we just collect wild boars and wild deer, even if the pheasants and ducks are dead. A little bit is all right.

As long as the portion is sufficient, officers and soldiers will not say anything.

Maybe they prefer to eat wild products, eating pork is only for oily water, and their dishes are not bad for oily water. "

Zhu Rourong thought for a while and said, "This is really damn good."

He also discovered that not only officers and soldiers, but even high-ranking officials like Shan Qi prefer wild goods!

But the least valuable thing is wild goods!
After pondering for a while, the two hit it off,
Wulin City was controlled by officers and soldiers of Sanhe, most of them were acquaintances, there was no need to greet anyone at all, and they directly arranged for staff to set up stalls at various gates of Wulin City, and began to buy wild goods and live pigs.

Lin Yi stayed in the chief secretary's yamen in Wulin City for three days, and went to the flower boats every day to observe the people's sentiments. Unfortunately, these flower boats thought that the Sanhe soldiers entering the city was a military disaster, so they were too frightened to open the door for business.

He was very sad.

"My lord, Shen Chu has already entered Wuzhou,"

He Jixiang said loudly, "We will march to Qizhou in a few days."

Lin Yi said, "Is there any news from King Yong?
Did they go to Ankang City? "

He Jixiang said, "King Yong and King Jin have 20 soldiers in Shuozhou. According to my estimation, they will arrive at the city of Ankang in ten days."
