MTL - Great Tang Broom Star-Chapter 31 Pulling Old Xu's Wool

  Chapter 31 Pulling Old Xu's Wool

  In Yangjiawu, the villagers gradually adapted to the situation of being neighbors with Broom Star. Some people dare not approach Jia Pingan, while others are eager to throw Jia Pingan down to see if they will be lucky. It was just frightened by Xu Jingzong's hooligan methods, so he didn't dare to do it.

  Xu Jingzong's method is very simple and rude: Anyone who throws Jia Pingan down, what are you doing, just abolish it, let you lose your means of making a living, and see if you can still get lucky.

   Seven people were arrested one after another. Up to now, none of them have been lucky, so Jia Pingan dared to go out for a walk.

  When those women saw him, most of their eyes lit up, and they were all wondering if their daughters were having fun.

  But they were all a little jealous of Jia Pingan's broom star fate, and even killed both his grandfather and maternal grandfather, and his parents were no exception, leaving only his cousin Yang Deli.

  If you marry your daughter to him, will you destroy your own family?

  Thinking of this possibility, those who were excited all retreated.

   "Ping'an." Yang Zhongshun came to look for Jia Ping'an, and said solemnly: "Your envoy told us to make bamboo ware last time, do you think it's possible?"

   "It's okay." Jia Ping'an already had a plan in mind, and it was just to teach Lao Xu that he was tossing back and forth.

   "I believe you in this matter, but not the envoy." Yang Zhongshun's words made several villagers around him nod their heads as if it was a matter of course.

  Old Xu came to Yangjiawu too frequently, which made the villagers feel that Jia Ping'an had been involved.

  As far as trust is concerned, the villagers naturally trust Jia Pingan, so they came to ask about it out of anxiety.

  Currently, the situation in Huazhou is not optimistic. When it comes to making bamboo ware, the people say that Lao Xu is a dog and a mouse, meddling in his own business. I feel that the state forces the people to make bamboo ware, mostly to deceive people.

  So this matter was strongly pushed back by the people, and Lao Xu's reputation at the beginning has also declined, which is heartbreaking.

  Jia Ping'an knew the benefits of this matter. At first, he didn't think about explaining anything to the village in private, but when he heard what Yang Deli said that day and knew what Jia's mother expected of him, he was inevitably moved.

  Jia's mother hopes to have a title. At present, this wish cannot be realized, but it can make Jia's reputation in the village better.

  Thinking of this, Jia Pingan said: "If you trust XX, you can do it now."

  Yang Zhongshun went to find several village elders to discuss, and finally came to find Jia Pingan.

"do what?"

"Does the villager know how many people drink tea in Chang'an City?" Jia Ping'an said calmly, "Drinking tea is an elegant thing, but the teacup is boiling hot. If there is a bamboo coaster, there is still blue on it." , the fragrance of bamboo mixed with the fragrance of tea...who wouldn't buy it?"

  Yang Zhongshun was very moved, "But they have a way to fade the blue, so that the tea coaster can last for a longer time, and there will be no bugs."

  Jia Pingan sighed, "Bamboo tea coasters are not expensive, and those people don't need the money. Some question, you also drink tea, would you like to buy a tea coaster?"

  Yang Zhongshun shook his head, "I only buy it when I'm full, and I can't bear the money!"

"That's it." Jia Ping'an was very patient in order to build a reputation for the old Jia family. "He who is willing to buy tea coasters doesn't care about buying two or three a year. In this way, there are people who have a steady stream of tea coasters." purchase…"

  Yang Zhongshun looked longingly, and a young man who was a few years older than Jia Pingan suddenly said: "It can only be used for a few years, but now it can only be used for half a year. Isn't this a lie?"

   "Adult, do you have the room to talk too much?" Yang Zhongshun went up with fists and kicks, and the young man was beaten and called out. His father heard the sound, and when he heard about it, he cursed: "Beat me hard!"

   "Ping'an is seeking benefits for the whole village, but you have accused him of being a profiteer. Should you hit him?"

"Should!"

   "Do you dare next time?"

   "Don't dare!"

Seeing a good young man being suppressed, Jia Pingan felt that it was necessary to restore his pure heart, and said: "In business, if you want to deal with bamboo, the cost will increase, which is not good for sales. And the tea coasters and other small things, no matter how delicate you make them, if they are soaked in tea for a while, the tea coasters will be unreadable. Therefore, it is so troublesome to make, but it is actually useless at all. It is wasteful!"

  The young man cupped his hands in reverence, "So that's how it is. As soon as Ping'an said something, he understood. It's just that Muramasa didn't make sense, so he did it when he came up..."

  Yang Zhongshun was so angry that he wanted to do something.

  Ahem!

  Jia Pingan felt that admirers were troublesome, and said: "If you want to do this, you must hurry up."

  Yangjiawu immediately got busy. When they made the first tea coaster, the tragic Xu Jingzong came back.

"The old man sold all his family property and got 20,000 guan, and told the people in Huazhou that they should do everything they can. Before that, anyone who didn't listen to the greeting, hit!"

   boiled.

  The state government is boiling.

  Yu Wen stared at him dumbfounded, thinking that Old Xu was crazy.

   The cliff is crazy!

  Liao Quan is still an admirer, "The envoy actually ruins his family for the people. If anyone is not dedicated, he will be a wolf!"

  Xu Jingzong recalled the scene of opening up wasteland last time, and said: "The people have been summoned."

   Later, the prefectural Yamen was surrounded by people, and Xu Jingzong asked Yu Wen to speak out.

  Yu Wen stood in front, and for some reason, there was something in his heart that... I was shocked.

  He is from the aristocratic circle of Guanlong, and this time he came to Huazhou with a mission, the target is Lao Xu and Sao Baxing. So far, he feels that he has successfully hidden himself, and he is about to break into the "enemy's interior" and become Lao Xu's confidant.

   This is a test!

  Yu Wen took a deep breath and shouted: "Xu Shijun pawned all his family property for the sake of the people of Huazhou, and he got 20,000 yuan..."

  Xu Jingzong stood on the side and said suddenly: "The voice is too low."

  This is his glorious moment. Earlier, he wanted to speak out to the people in person, but Liao Quan tried his best to stop him, saying that the person concerned was going to speak in person, and he was a bit shy, so let him speak.

  You have done a good deed, and you have to tell everyone that it is actually true, but Lao Xu is the governor! Be reserved.

  Xu Jingzong thought so too, but felt that Yu Wen had been getting close to him frequently recently, and he had the hope of becoming the second dog licker, so he threw something for him to do, which was also a test.

   But Yu Wen's voice was a little low, and Old Xu was really dissatisfied.

  Yu Wen raised his voice, "Xu Shijun is for the people of Huazhou..."

  Xu Jingzong shook his head, Liao Quan reminded: "Be louder."

  There are more and more people, but the voice is not loud enough. How can everyone know Xu Jingzong's feat?

   "Xu Shijun for..."

   "Louder."

   "Xu Shijun for...for..."

broken!

  Yu Wen's broken voice was extremely ear-piercing, Xu Jingzong sighed, "Liao Quan, you go."

  Liao Quan went up and Yu Wen came down, unable to hide his disappointment.

   "For the sake of the people of Huazhou, Xu Shijun pawned all his family property, exchanged 20,000 guan, and bought all the bamboo utensils..."

   Those people couldn't believe their ears.

  No one has ever thought about the common people like this, let alone destroying a family for the common people. But Lao Xu came to Huazhou under the name of a treacherous minister, but brought benefits to everyone one after another.

  An old man came tremblingly, Xu Jingzong hurried to meet him.

  The old man said with tears in his eyes, "You can destroy your family for the sake of the people, so you can wait until I think you are a traitor..."

  Xu Jingzong stroked his beard uncomfortably.

   "Ke Shijun found out Liang Bo's corruption, and went to fight for the wasteland with the gentry for us. This time, he gave up his family for us... old man..."

  The old man wanted to kneel down in tears, but Xu Jingzong quickly grabbed him, "No need! No need!"

  He remembered how the people were moved after he cried when he opened up wasteland last time, so he once again resorted to the trick of fantasy, and tears fell down.

   "It made you cry."

  The people were so moved that they were reluctant to leave. In the end Xu Jingzong wept again and sent them away.

  The old man scored again!

Xu Jingzong was quite satisfied, turned around and said to Yu Wen: "You need to practice your voice, so that, from tomorrow onwards, you will get up early every day in the state office, shouting to the outside that you are loyal to His Majesty, have no second thoughts, and shout ten times." all over."

  In an instant, Yu Wen wanted to die.

  But Xu Jingzong was looking at him, so he could only say humbly: "I'm afraid the next official..."

   "Why? Your Majesty is so merciful, you don't want to?" Xu Jingzong scowled, and Yu Wen hurriedly said with a smile: "Where, the next official will start shouting tomorrow."

  So when Jia Ping'an came to the state office the next morning, he saw Yu Wen standing outside the gate and shouting.

   "A certain is loyal to His Majesty and has no second thoughts!"

  Jia Ping'an heard the smell of shame, that is to say, Yu Wen was not happy to shout these words. So he came closer.

  Being stared at and shouting slogans, Yu Wen blushed and became more and more ashamed, so he glared at Jia Pingan. But Jia Pingan didn't realize it, and stared at him with a playful smile.

   "A certain loyal to His Majesty..."

  Except for the strange old Xu, no one is willing to show loyalty to Li Zhi in public, so it's a shame, okay?

  Jia Ping'an listened to it nine times, and if it wasn't for something, he really wanted to keep listening.

  Go in and find Xu Jingzong, the old thief is drinking tea comfortably.

   "Does Shi Jun know what happened yesterday?" Jia Ping'an turned his face as soon as he came.

   "What's wrong?" Xu Jingzong was still immersed in success.

   "Originally the people were full of confidence, but Shi Jun was in tears. Some people in Yangjiawu said that Shi Jun was afraid that he didn't have much confidence. He was crying because he was worried that the 20,000 guan would be in vain. Now he is not in good spirits."

  Xu Jingzong was surprised, "This... yesterday, the old man just wanted to impress the people, is that so?"

   "This is the same as fighting." Jia Pingan felt that the task of training Lao Xu was very difficult. "Before fighting, we must give them confidence instead of making everyone panic."

   "Are the people listless?" Xu Jingzong felt that he had failed too much.

   "No, most of them are very energetic." Jia Pingan said with a strange expression.

   "Why?" Xu Jingzong asked in confusion.

   "Everyone wants to get a share of the 20,000 yuan, do more and get more, this is not crazy."

   This is pulling wool, and most of the people are scrambling to get old Xu's hair.

   "Then what should we do?" Xu Jingzong, who became a fat sheep, was very depressed and felt a little cold.

   "Master, you should do it too."

"do what?"

   "Make bamboo ware."

   "But the old man can't."

   "Just find a craftsman."

  …

  Huazhou is the big lump around Huashan Mountain today, and it has always been an important place in Guanzhong. Regarding the bamboo ware in Huazhou, this is not fabricated by the jazz. The later generations of that place, that is, today, is the famous hometown of bamboo ware in China. The book just advances this time point a little bit.
