Chapter 61: The old sword is deeply in love, and the old love is unforgettable

"The newborn seedlings should be brave and diligent, take root, sprout, break the soil, pluck branches, scatter leaves, and then absorb rain and dew, collect the sunshine, bloom in the wind, and bear fruit in the rain. Once mature, the breeze blows, it will wander around the world and take root everywhere!

Then, it will never stop..."

Mr. Xu Yuanshou held a dandelion in his hand, blowing away the fluffy flowers, and countless seeds drifted away in the wind.

"Murder still makes me uncomfortable!"

Yun Zhao is still not used to Mr. Xu's teaching method similar to Buddha's smile, because it will be very tiring to listen to the lecture in this way.

"This is going to return to the old tune of 'nature is good' and 'nature is evil'.

Yun Zhao, do you think you are a bad person or a good person?”

"I have seven lives in my hand and I am trying my best to murder more people. Besides, I am a good person, which is too much."

"It's very good, it shows that you still have good thoughts in your heart. Although you do something that is very evil, your heart is still wholeheartedly committed to goodness."

"Why do I feel so awkward to hear?"

"Oh, this is the Buddhist theory. Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot!"

"I want to know what sir thinks about my behavior?"

"I? No objection! I am the gentleman you invited for 10,000 taels of silver. What I want to do is to give you wisdom, teach knowledge, guide how to think, and comfort your messy mood. As for right or wrong, it is your choice, and I will not make a judgment!"

"You just talked about Buddhism..."

"Oh, that's what comforts you. The biggest function of Buddhism is to soothe people's hearts, make people calm, and make people find a precept to forgive themselves after doing evil things. In the end, killing people is so peaceful. After all, killing one person is to kill, kill ten thousand or kill. After enough people are killed, you throw the butcher knife to the ground, put on a cassock, forgive yourself, and become a living, clean and good person again!"

"So, who is the good person? At least you have to tell me who is the good person, so that I can learn from him!"

"There are really such people. Do you still remember Liang Xingyang, a Taoist priest from Jinxian Temple?"

Yun Zhao thought for a while and said, "It's the old Taoist who cheated my family's money and went down the mountain with his sword on his back, claiming to be going to save the world?"

"Broken leg!"

"Ah? I was beaten up?"

The matter was funny, but Xu Yuanshou did not laugh, but bowed to the direction of Zhongnan Mountain and said, "He went to the battlefield where the bandits were Huo Bing, and advised others not to fight. He also said that as long as he sat down and talked, he would always find a suitable way out.

As a result, he was trampled by the soldiers and his legs were broken. The little apprentice carried him back from Yansui, delaying his treatment and may have to use crutches to walk in the future.

Do you want to laugh?”

Yun Zhao was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "I can't laugh."

Xu Yuanshou spat at the sky and said, "But, everyone else is laughing at him! He is laughing at him overestimating his ability, laughing at him as a mantised car, laughing at him as a pedantic, laughing at him as if he wants to become famous!"

When Yun Zhao heard this, he was silent for a longer time. When Xu Yuanshou opened his mouth again, he was already a little impatient and was about to leave.

"I have killed seven people recently and are about to kill more people. The house is not stable. I want to ask Master Liang to come to my house to do a ritual to relieve the resentment that has soared into the sky. What do you think?"

Xu Yuanshou nodded and said, "Then hurry up, I'm worried that you will go too late, and he and his little disciple will starve to death."

It is obvious that the gentleman has no objection to Yun Zhao’s actions, let alone contempt.

"Xu Guangqi sent you some seeds and will be delivered to Yunshi Zhuang tomorrow. Remember to collect them. I heard that there is a letter and two hundred taels of silver inside. Take the silver, find some craftsmen to fix the gate of Yushan Academy and hang some bells on the eaves.

I believe you just burn it on the spot. If someone asks me, I will say I am dead."

"Ah? The seed I want has arrived?"

When Yun Zhao heard the news, he immediately ran away.

Xu Yuanshou raised his arm and wanted to instruct the student to understand his words again. Don’t burn the letter. When the words came to his mouth, tears flowed out and finally didn’t shout.

Yun Zhao rushed into the house like a wild boar and kicked open the door of the backyard. Before he could escape, the big white goose pinched its long neck and kicked it heavily on the big white goose's belly. Seeing this, the other big white goose shook its body and flapped its wings and ran away. Yun Zhao threw away the unlucky big white goose. Seeing Qian Duoduo came out, he pounced on her and hugged her face and kissed her.

Seeing Qian Duoduo blushing, he laughed and said, "I don't plan to marry you!"

Qian Duoduo was furious and caught up with Yun Zhao and punched him heavily in the back, then said, "Why are you so happy?"

Yun Zhao laughed and said, "If I say I have a way to make everyone have enough food, do you believe it?"

Qian Duoduo curled his lips and said contempt: "Lie!"

Yun Zhao smiled and said, "My baby seed is coming tomorrow."

Qian Duoduo quickly said, "Really?"

Yun Zhao said: "The very amazing seeds are stolen by the Red-haired Chinese people who took a boat to a fairy mountain after floating for many years. It is common for acre of land to produce thousands of kilograms!"

Qian Duoduo heard Yun Zhao say this, his eyes rolled around several times, ran back to his room quickly, and soon he held two ingots of silver and patted Yun Zhao's arms and said, "I want to buy land!"

"Buy land? Whose land is bought?"

"Your home only needs water to irrigate the ground!"

"I gave you these ten taels of silver."

"It's mine!" Qian Duoduo's eyes widened.

"Do you know how much acre of paddy fields in my house cost?"

"One acre of land in Yangzhou is only three taels of silver, and the land price in Guanzhong will only be lower!"

"You know, that's the truth! Why is the land price in Yangzhou so low? It's entirely because the Southeast has a lot of land. People with a lot of land will become grain chiefs. If they can't collect the grain, they will have to pay their property!

No one wants to be a grain leader, and whoever is a grain leader depends on who has a lot of land. People who are worried that their own fields will sell their fields one after another. This way, the land price in Yangzhou, such a fish and rice town, becomes very low.

In a place like Yunjiazhuang, my family is born with grain growth. With my family's protection, others are not at risk of being grain growth. Who do you think will sell you land as precious as life?

Do you know that my land is from the ancestral land and it is not sold!"

Qian Duoduo lowered his head and slowly approached Yun Zhao's side waist with his butt and whispered: "Just sell it to me, just a little!"

Yun Zhao said: "With the land, you will become a householder and you will have to pay taxes."

Qian Duoduo raised his head and pushed away his long hanging hair and revealed his pale face, saying, "With the field, it's a human being."

"Do you still have to register for your household registration next?"

Qian Duoduo nodded heavily with gritted teeth.

"Will you let your brother study next?"

Qian Duoduo's eyes began to shine.

"And then, your brother will go to the county school, the government school, and finally participate in the children's examination, the county exam, the township exam, the imperial examination, the palace exam, and become a scholar, the juren, the jinshi or even the top scholar?"

Qian Duoduo lit his beautiful little head like a chicken pecking at rice, and even saliva flowed out from the corners of his mouth.

"It's over, exactly the same as what my mother thought!"

"I will let my brother shine on my family even if I never marry!" Qian Duoduo kneaded the handkerchief in his hand into a rag, but the words he said were extremely firm.

"If you brother and brother want to get the land, the only possibility is to open up land and then spend three years to cultivate the raw land. In this way, you will have some dry land!

During this period, if a person with land in Yun’s village suffers a disaster and needs to sell land to help his life, your chance will come and you can buy land with money.

This is how my land is except for my grandfather’s official land. You must be patient.”

Qian Duoduo said: "Where can we open the land?"

Yun Zhao pointed to Yushan surrounded by clouds on the mountain and said, "Above the white clouds!"

Qian Duoduo looked at Yushan and was a little fascinated. Yun Zhao wanted to leave, but Qian Duoduo grabbed him and said, "Why don't you want to take the top scorer?"

Yun Zhao shook his head and said, "The top scorer in the exam is not suitable for me. I think it may be more suitable for me to be a robber."

"Why?"

"Because in a few years, the emperor will die, who will be the top scorer in the family?"

"No, how could the emperor die? Even if he dies, the emperor's son will continue to ask for the top scholar!"

"Are you sure your brother can get the top scorer?" Yun Zhao pointed at the money who was comforting the big white goose.

"My brother is very smart!"

"I used to think of me so, but after seeing my husband, I didn't think I was smart anymore."

"What do you think my brother is suitable for? Farmer?"

"No, your brother is a very qualified robber!"
