Chapter 1632 Common people’s common sayings and common things


    Spring is warm and flowers are blooming, or it can be said that summer is warm and flowers are blooming.


    Although the winter seems to be getting longer and the spring getting colder in the past two years, here in Jingxiang, in early summer, it seems that all the oppression of the cold weather in spring is about to be vented, and it is a colorful scene.


    Jingxiang has been a bit deserted in the past two years. Strictly speaking, the Xiangyang area should have become deserted.


    Because Wancheng is bustling.


    I don’t know when it started, maybe in the past two years, or maybe earlier, when Wancheng’s trading shops started to carry out some activities, such as buy one get one free, top up a hundred yuan and get ten yuan, and what else. Coupons discount coupons cashback coupons…


    At first, the local business owners in Xiangyang sneered, thinking that these were just tactics to attract attention. What was more important was good goods and good connections. Those who were greedy for cheap could not get good goods. However, they gradually found that the flow of people in their stores was getting more and more popular. The fewer people there are, the more people there are in Wancheng.


    There were so many that there were no shops in Wancheng, only inns, and another merchant village was built on the outskirts of Wancheng, specifically for the market. When the number of people was large, nearly ten thousand people came through it every day.


    This speed of gathering wealth naturally makes many people jealous. Those who are a little bit financially savvy, or even those who don’t even have any brains, just look at how many shops and goods there are in Wancheng, a shopping village, and you will know the number of them. The value is amazing. Therefore, one does not know whether they are real bandits or fake bandits, ranging from hundreds to thousands. Whether they are sneak attacks or disguises, they all want to make a fortune in Wancheng Shangzhai. Bundle…


    ?However, it is a pity that these real bandits and fake bandits were not able to get what they wanted in the end.


    The human-headed jingguan built on a **** not far from Shangzhai is a warning to everyone with some bad thoughts. It warns those sitting in Wancheng that there is an extremely brave general who wants to cause trouble. , first keep quiet about whether your neck is hard enough.


    ? Huang Chengyan was in Wancheng, pressing his waist and sighing a little.


    In the first two years, I felt that my body and bones were fine. Then, I felt that Huang Yueying had left. I hadn''t heard anything about Huang Yueying for several years. As a result, Huang Chengyan couldn''t sit still. He said that relying on heaven and earth is better than relying on himself, so ever I took in two concubines in succession and worked very hard. What’s the result?


    There was still no movement, which made Huang Chengyan feel sad and hurt his waist.


    It seems that it is destined that even I can’t rely on myself...


    Huang Chengyan sighed and decided to write another letter to Huang Yueying, asking Huang Yueying to work harder. Now that he is so young, only one child is not enough, and there are ten or eight children. If he can''t even get one, Why do you have the nerve to say hello to people?


    "Where is Han Sheng? Why isn''t he here?" Huang Chengyan staggered to Chijie Hall and took a look, but he couldn''t see Huang Zhong, so he stopped a busy official and asked.


    “I’ve seen Mr. Huang...” the clerk replied respectfully, “The general went to the school grounds in the city...”


    Huang Chengyan suddenly realized, "Are you training again? Hi..."


    ?But military training is a serious matter. Huang Chengyan just sighed casually without any other meaning. After all, Huang Chengyan also knew that without Huang Zhong, a strong general and strong army, Wancheng would not be what it is today.


    ?Before Huang Chengyan came to Wancheng, Wancheng was basically deserted. This place used to be a gathering place for Yellow Turban thieves. Of course, there was no mention of the economy or people''s livelihood. In particular, Liu Biao felt that his military power was too controlled by the Cai family, so he transferred Wenpin back to Xiangyang and came with Gan Ning. After checking and balancing Cai Mao, Wancheng basically became a den of thieves, with chaos and no order at all, and people fled one after another. At that time, Wancheng was basically a den of thieves.


    Then Huang Chengyan and Huang Zhong took over this mess.


    At the beginning, some bandits and bandits left Wancheng, but most of them were unwilling to give up. They were still pretending to be around Wancheng, especially those who had tasted the sweetness and were not willing to give up at all. Wancheng wanted to attack Huang Chengyan and others who came to take over Wancheng.


    As a result, Huang Chengyan stood still at first. When these bandits began to show their claws, he suddenly launched into action. For a time, thousands of heads rolled down in Wancheng and outside, and the streets and city gates were stained with blood. They were suddenly shocked. The deceived thieves can be regarded as clearing up a wave of tough and stubborn thieves...


    ?The people who stayed near Wancheng immediately hid their swords and guns silently, then took out their hoes in the corner of the house, and worked on the land with their heads dripping with sweat, saying that they knew nothing and had never done anything...


    ? Huang Chengyan also put past the blame and re-divided the field boundaries and gave certain support to those who were willing to pick up the **** and plow the land again.


    Slowly, the people of Wancheng gradually settled down after such a great purge. The original order was re-established, the household registration system was reorganized, and with the addition of Huang''s craftsmen, the city roads were repaired. , the renovation of water conservancy facilities, and the injection of northwest caravans, Wancheng has gradually transformed from a den of thieves into a major commercial city today.


    ??Seeing that Mr. Huang had grown up, Liu Biao wanted to pick peaches, but he was a bit wary of it. After all, everyone knew what Wancheng was like before. Now that Mr. Huang has done it, he will reach out. No matter what, it can''t be justified. The key is that the Huang family has deep roots in Jingxiang and has a close relationship with the Pang family and the Cai family. This affects the whole body. At first, Liu Biao hesitated, thinking that he would consolidate the military power of the Cai family in a short time. The result was that Wan The city grew bigger and bigger, and in the end I didn''t dare to move even if I wanted to.


    For Cao Cao, having such a big trading city is undoubtedly very convenient. In addition, Cao Cao and Liu Biao were allies before. Although he knew that Liu Biao might have some grudge against Wancheng, Cao Cao didn''t care about it. Everything has not been taken care of properly. Where can I find the free time to work hard for Liu Biao?


    ?Hence, Wancheng was in the gap between Liu Biao and Cao Cao, and relied on the Great Northwest Livestock Trading Group, so it was natural that Wancheng was doing well...


    ?? Cao Cao attacked Yuan Shu in the south and Yuan Shao in the north, which immediately messed up the entire Central Plains area. Some people could not bear it and avoided the war, and some of them attached themselves to Wancheng, which indirectly promoted the rapid development of Wancheng.


    ?However, with the development of Wancheng, Huang Chengyan''s head is somewhat useless.


    Household registration, customs, Fu registration, more servitude, rural servitude, general servitude, reinstatement, three elders, filial brothers, widows, loneliness, refugees, slaves and other matters are becoming more and more complicated, plus the need to manage the market Conflicts between various merchants, dealing with cunning and cunning people, and at the same time carrying out some civilian affairs in accordance with the general customs of the Han Dynasty, and even seeing who under the rule lives to sixty-seventy, You can give wine and wine to the people tax-free. Each task is so complicated that it will kill people.


    ??If it comes to engineering matters, such as what materials and what processes, Huang Chengyan almost doesn''t have to think about it, he can get started, but is it so civil...


    ??The same goes for Huang Zhong. His skill points are all focused on force, but he is almost blank in the field of civil affairs, even worse than Huang Chengyan.


    If you can’t do it yourself, you will naturally need to hire foreign help. And the foreign aid that Huang Chengyan invited naturally fell on Pang''s head... "Immortal people..." Huang Chengyan clasped his hands behind his back, just like a landlord and a wealthy man inspecting his fields, and wandered to the political affairs hall in Wancheng. When they arrived at Pang Shanmin, they greeted him with a smile.


    “I’ve met Huang Gong.” Pang Shanmin greeted Huang Chengyan.


    Pang Shanmin, named Shanmin, courtesy name Xianmin, nicknamed Juanmin...


    It''s like a street gangster who talks about men and women in public is a shameless and despicable hooligan, and may have to be punished. Then a boss talks about men and women in public. He is elegant, funny and charming, and the listeners have to show eight teeth. The boss said it well, the boss said it right. The two-character names of the Han Dynasty were just nicknames for ordinary people, but for Pang Shanmin and Huang Chengyan, they were elegant and unique.


    ? Pang Shanmin is the son of Pang Degong and Pang Tong''s cousin. He is naturally Huang Chengyan''s junior. His appearance is completely different from Pang Tong''s. He is a quite handsome man, which is in line with the aesthetic concepts of the Han Dynasty people.


    "It''s okay, it''s okay..." Huang Chengyan smiled, "I''ll just walk around and take a look... You''re busy, you''re busy..."


    Although he said this, Pang Shanmin couldn''t really leave Huang Chengyan aside and didn''t care about anything. He first asked someone to deliver a brocade mat to Huang Chengyan, and then arranged tea soup and other things, and then approved the writing while writing. Said: "Huang Gong, Ziyuan is now a great Han hussar, and the Huang family is also in high demand..."


    "Ah ha, ah ha ha ha..." Huang Chengyan smiled so much that he showed his molar teeth, "This is the Fei family''s business. It''s just that the girl is lucky. It has nothing to do with me. Ah ha ha, it has nothing to do with me..."


    Pang Shanmin curled his lips secretly. It really doesn''t matter. You won''t be hanging around all the time these days. Don''t you just want to hear a few more words...


    Huang Chengyan laughed to himself for a while, and then said: "By the way, mountain people, that boy Ziyuan is quite thoughtful and asked people to bring twenty sheep. He said that these sheep taste better in the northwest. We The sheep here have a somewhat earthy flavor, but there are some differences between these Guanzhong sheep...I''ll have someone send you two later..."


    Pang Shanmin smiled, kept writing, and said: "Ziyuan is pure and filial, and he is really a role model for us... I will thank Mr. Huang..."


    "Ah haha..." Huang Chengyan laughed, "We are all one family, you''re welcome... By the way, where is Kong Ming? Why didn''t you see Kong Ming? Didn''t you say he was here?"


    "Following Han Sheng to the school grounds..." Pang Shanmin replied while still correcting the writing. Pang Shanmin married Brother Zhu''s sister, so naturally they could be considered a family. Zhuge Kongming was bored living under Lushan Mountain for the past two days, so he came to Wancheng to relax.


    "Okay, then you can get busy. I''ll go to the school grounds to have a look..." Huang Chengyan saw that Pang Shanmin was really busy, so he was too embarrassed to interfere with it. Besides, his seniority was higher than that of Pang Shanmin. If he hadn''t really found no peers, The old man boasted that he really would not go to Pang Shanmin, so he stood up and said something, then refused Pang Shanmin''s offer to see him off, and wandered towards the Wancheng school grounds.


    That’s right, aren’t the Chinese people generally like this?


    ?Just like Huang Zhong also had a relationship with Fei Qian and Huang Chengyan because of his own children, and also had the current position of the general of Wancheng...


    Huang Zhong had always been in dire straits because of his child''s problems, but later because of Zhang Ji''s treatment, his condition gradually improved. Although due to long-term illness, his body was weak and he was unable to inherit Huang Zhong''s martial arts. But at least people survived, and could get some glory with the Huang family. Studying the scriptures with Zhuge Yi under Lushan Mountain was a blessing in disguise.


    ??A large area in the west of Wancheng City, occupying almost one-fifth of the city, is a school ground.


    Huang Chengyan turned to the corner of the street, looked up, and couldn''t help but laugh out loud. He saw two and a half-year-old boys standing at the gate of the school ground, looking up, unable to get in through the door, looking pitiful...


    "What''s wrong? Han Sheng won''t let you two in?" Huang Chengyan looked at the two and a half young men happily and said, "Nephew Ping, why don''t you wear more clothes... And you, why are you still so thin? Have you eaten the sheep you sent a few days ago?”


    “I’ve seen Mr. Huang…” X2


    ?Zhuge Liang and Huang Ping went to Huang Chengyan to pay tribute. Zhuge Liang''s voice was crisper and brighter, while Huang Ping''s voice seemed a little hoarse, perhaps due to years of coughing.


    ? Huang Ping''s body is a little weak, and he has improved somewhat in the past two years. However, his complexion is still not very rosy, but at least he can move around freely, which is already very good.


    Zhuge Liang on the side is as polished as jade. His clear and dark eyes seem to reflect the turbidity of the world, and his green clothes have a somewhat mundane air.


    “Let’s go and let uncle take you in…”


    ? Huang Chengyan was about to exercise his authority, but was stopped by Zhuge Liang. "Huang Gong, don''t break General Huang''s Liuying rules because of this kid...Besides, General Huang also said that after routine drills, he will bring us two in..."


    "That''s it..." Huang Chengyan hesitated for a moment, and seeing that Zhuge Liang and Huang Ping seemed to be willing to wait outside the school grounds, he said, "Okay, then wait, uncle will wait with you... Alas, there were not so many rules before. Later, it wasn''t that... Han Sheng asked for some kind of military code from Ziyuan, so there were more rules..."


    "The generals of the hussars are among the best in the world. Naturally, they have strict military laws and regulations... Among the dogs, the cavalry has won nine out of ten. The generals of the hussars can use them freely, which is also the beauty of elite soldiers..." Zhuge Liang said clearly, as if Revealing some admiration.


    “In the land of Guanzhong, the powerful Han Dynasty’s elite cavalry, thin in front and behind, hunting on the left and right...” Huang Ping also sighed, “I don’t know what a majestic scene it is...”


    Huang Chengyan laughed again, and then said: "Nephew Ping, want to go to Guanzhong? Then you have to eat more and practice more, at least you have to be able to mount a horse... Nephew Zhuge, you also need to eat more, you are too thin Too thin..."


    Huang Ping didn’t say anything, but Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, “Actually, Liang doesn’t want to go to Guanzhong either…”


    "Haha...ah?" Huang Chengyan thought he heard wrongly and couldn''t help but double-check, "Xiannephew Zhuge, what did you say? You...don''t want to go to Guanzhong?"
