Chapter 86 The first choice for living and living

"what……"

After grinding the strange sword, Du Chengfeng couldn't recover for a long time.

Speaking of Ruan Shantao, his impression of this old man was that he was strong, outrageously strong. If he had to say any shortcomings, it would be that this old man was too talkative, very old-fashioned, and he liked to preach. He could spray for half an hour - but it wasn't until he finished sharpening the strange sword that Du Chengfeng knew that this old troll who liked to preach had such a legendary experience.

"Hey……"

Thinking of this, Du Chengfeng sighed, and finally hung the polished strange sword in his hand back on the wall.

Indeed, this Fangzheng sword is the best weapon in Yanzhou's arsenal, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a magical weapon, but since the old man Ruan Shantao put down this sword for the sake of the peace of the state, he Bian was too embarrassed to just take it away.

Although judging from his own actual experience in Yanzhou, at least Yanzhou City at night is still not so peaceful, but at least Yanzhou City during the day can still maintain normal order.

It is so close to the border of Jibei, but you can't even see people who are slashing with knives in the street, which is enough to show that there is still something to be said for the merits of this old man Ruan's enlightenment-of course, that old man obviously knows that in such a close In the frontier where the folk customs are tough, it is somewhat too idealistic to completely let people live in peace and be kind to others, but it is obvious that this old man has done everything he can.

Du Chengfeng was once puzzled before, although the distance is not too far, why is there such a big difference in folk customs between this Yanzhou and that Jizhou.

It turns out that the root is here.

"Thank you for your hard work, then you can continue to stay here."

After cupping his hands against the weapon on the wall, Du Chengfeng got up and left.

Before, he thought that there were troubles everywhere in this city of Yanzhou, as if he was sitting on a powder keg that could explode at any time, whether it was the corrupted weapons in the arsenal, or monsters in the city, or what he had personally experienced, If any one of those murderous monsters hiding in the night is taken out alone, this Yanzhou will not be able to get better, and with this pile of things stuck together, this Yanzhou will look like it is about to end.

But now, he knew that these things that shocked him were, in the final analysis, nothing more than trivial things.

As long as this Fangzheng sword is still hanging here, there will be no trouble in the arsenal.As long as old man Ruan still sits in Ziyang Mountain, there will be no troubles in Yanzhou.Although there must be some trivial matters in the details, in general, this Yanzhou is not bad?

And compared with the desolate Jibei, this Yanzhou is rich in products and has many fertile fields.

It can be called the first choice for livable and livable places.

"The decision is yours!"

Du Chengfeng immediately made up his mind and decided to live in Yanzhou permanently.

Thinking about it carefully, his life in Yanzhou is not bad. He has a stable job, a house assigned to him, and courses for further study. The advanced training course was taught by a famous person in the world, even Old Man Ruan, who once served as Situ.

Although in Du Chengfeng's view, this course is most likely just the simplest literacy and reading, but no one can say that this is not a class.

"Looking back, the folks in Yangjiabao can also go to the mountains to learn."

Yes, this is indeed feasible. At least most of the young children have reached the age when they should be able to read and write. If they count on the level of education in Yangjiabao, they will teach a few more Yang Sanlangs to come out. Why don't you take it to old head Ruan, at least you can wear it like a normal person.

Even speaking, with old man Ruan's reputation, I am afraid that not many adults are willing to spend a little effort to follow the enlightenment of literacy.

As for the old man Ruan, after Du Chengfeng sharpened the Fangzheng sword, he already knew that the other party was a man of good manners, as long as he was willing to learn to read and write, he could go up the mountain—this is very important to the folks in Yangjiabao. It couldn't be better for them.After all, compared with the literacy rate in Yanzhou, the level of folk culture in Jibei border can only be described as tragedy.

"How can you be illiterate?"

Du Chengfeng shook his head again and again, as a Taiping person, he couldn't see this.

In Du Chengfeng's view, as a normal person, the worst thing to do is to at least know the most basic daily words, be able to make sentences smoothly, and master the most basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.If you can't even do this, and only know how to draw a knife to slash, what is the difference between you and a monkey?
With this thought in mind, Du Chengfeng rode out of the city on horseback, on the one hand to tell the villagers about this matter, and to tell everyone not to run away.On the other hand, I invited Carpenter Li over to have a drink after a long absence, and celebrate the housewarming together.

After hearing Du Chengfeng's proposal, the villagers naturally supported it.

"I know that you are a strong man who can do great things!"

For a while, the praises from the folks were endless, and even Du Chengfeng couldn't hold back when he heard it - but it's no wonder that for these folks in Yangjiabao, it is possible for their children to get a Situ to help enlighten them. Even if it's just a former Situ, this is a big event.

The children were going to school, and as parents, they naturally couldn't leave, so after discussing with each other, they all planned to buy land and properties in Yanzhou, and take root here.As for the issue of site selection, as well as money, it's all old man Yang Xuanyang's business.

As for Li Carpenter, he followed Du Chengfeng back to the city. The two cooked some snacks and got drunk in the mansion.

Even Du Chengfeng himself was unconscious because of drinking too much.

It's been a long time, it's been a long, long time, since he came to this world, it's the first time he let the tense nerves relax.

Therefore, it is normal for the wine table with only two people to have three people after waking up from the alcohol.

"Where did you come from?"

Du Chengfeng's face turned dark as he kicked Liu Bolun, who was drunk on the ground.

"This is my house, right? Where did you get in? Get out."

"Hey! You can't say that. Before you came, this was my home."

The drunk-eyed Liu Bolun just opened his mouth, but found that Du Chengfeng had already clenched his fists. He quickly shrank his neck and stood up.

"No, I mean, what you are drinking is my moonshine, how can you not call me?"

"What do you want to do? Are you told to go back to the government office to work?"

After looking at the remaining wine in the cup, Du Chengfeng did not punch Liu Bolun in the face.

People came into the house out of nowhere, which is too scary, plus he was drunk just now, if the person who got in was not Liu Bolun but some gangster, at this moment, he and Carpenter Li might be killed Cut off the head - thanks to the fact that he used wine to coax the sparrowhawk before, who would have thought that he himself would lose his guard.

Eat less alcohol, know more about things, or drink less, otherwise it is easy to cause big troubles.

"But how dare you sneak in? Do you know that no one will work after you sign and resign? If you were caught by someone from the government office, would you still be able to get out of Yanzhou City?"

"Hey, I'm just here to have a drink... Oh yes, there is indeed a business."

In the middle of speaking, Liu Bolun slapped his head.

"The mountain leader is afraid that you will run away, so he asked me to come here to remind you to remember to go to the mountain to listen to the class, otherwise I won't be the one who comes here next time."

"Ah this..."

Du Chengfeng was speechless for a long time.

He just didn't expect that he already had a serious job, and he would dream of going back to his student days and being arrested by the teacher one day.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

After taking a shower and changing his clothes, Du Chengfeng got on his horse and drove all the way to Ziyang Mountain after getting rid of the smell of alcohol.

Outside the mountain gate, the two gatekeepers were still guarding the gate, but this time Du Chengfeng was experienced.

Before he even got close to the mountain gate, Du Chengfeng had already collected the seal ribbon and money bag, and got off his horse. When the two doormen reached out for money, Du Chengfeng remembered what Liu Bolun had taught him before leaving, so he simply used his hands. A spread.

"I'm a student and have no money."

"……Um?"

The two gatekeepers looked at each other, and they just opened the way and let them pass.

Cooperating with these two gatekeepers, they are just like the old man Ruan, and they mainly target rich men.

"Oh, right."

As if remembering something, Du Chengfeng, who had just walked into the mountain gate, turned his head back.

"I'm a student, I have no money, and I haven't had breakfast yet."

"Forget it, at this hour, there shouldn't be much food left in the cafeteria."

One of the gatekeepers thought for a while, and actually took out a bag of buns in his arms, took two and handed them over.

"Take a pad to pad your stomach first, and let's talk about the rest in the evening."

"Thank you both."

After receiving the two buns, Du Chengfeng couldn't help admiring inwardly.

The co-author, Liu Bolun, is actually reliable, and with this method, he can really get along to eat early.

But just as Du Chengfeng bit into a bun, someone else came to the two doormen.

"I am also a student, and I have no money."

"Ha ha."

Looking at the middle-aged man in a toga with long sleeves outside the mountain gate, the two doormen just sneered.

"You are still a student at this age, don't you think we are blind?"

"This... well, I'm actually here to communicate."

Seeing that he hadn't been able to frighten the two gatekeepers, the middle-aged man had no choice but to obediently take out his purse.

Then, he came to Du Chengfeng's side.

"It's true that I'm not a student, but I haven't had breakfast either. I wonder if you can give me one of the buns in your hand?"

"Haha."

Looking at the two door boys, Du Chengfeng was also happy.

"I'm really a student."

"I know you are a student... well, I don't want to eat your bun for nothing."

The middle-aged man froze for a moment, shook his head and laughed.

"As long as you are willing to give me a bun in your hand, I will tell you a secret."

"secret?"

Du Chengfeng didn't want to continue the chat anymore, what annoyed him most was this kind of half-spoken riddlers.

But just as Du Chengfeng was about to lead the horse away, the middle-aged man pointed to the saddle bag on the horse's back.

"In your bag, a weapon is already dead, right?"

The middle-aged man showed a warm smile.

"The secret I want to tell can bring this weapon back to life."
