Thus, Wang Ting settled down and waited for Dong Hai's Mi Family to reply.
Wang Ting left Wang Tao to accompany him while the other three went to purchase the necessary supplies.
Wang Ting also specially instructed them to buy some cloth, wine, and other things as rewards for their success. Then, he had the three of them return to the village to tell the clan leader the news.
Wang Ting learned that the manager of the Mi Family's rice shop was called Mi Zhong. Three generations of his ancestors had worked in the Mei Residence and could be considered loyal servants.
Through the Mi Zhong royal court, he roughly understood the locations of the three countries 'prefectures and the current situation of the imperial court.
After Emperor Ling of Han ascended the throne, the politics of the Eastern Han Dynasty was beyond cure. Droughts, floods, locust plagues, and other disasters were frequent. There were complaints everywhere, and the people were in dire straits. The power of the country declined further. In addition, the eunuchs fought for power with the relatives. In the end, the eunuchs overthrew the relatives Dou and placed Empress Dowager Dou under house arrest, seizing power. They also killed more than 100 righteous students such as Li Ying and Fan Pang, exiled and imprisoned more than 800 people, most of whom died tragically in prison, causing the second disaster of party proscription. Besides indulging in wine and sex, the fatuous and dissolute Ling Emperor also indulged in eunuchs. He respected Zhang Rang and the others as the Ten Attendants of the Eternal Court and said," Zhang is my father and Zhao is my mother."
The eunuchs used the emperor's favor to commit all kinds of crimes, extorting money from the people, and wantonly plundering the people's wealth. It could be said that they were extremely corrupt. After the eunuchs monopolized power, they imposed a dictatorial rule throughout the country.
As long as they were slightly dissatisfied with them, they would falsely accuse them, or exile them, or dismiss them from office, or kill them. In terms of economy, annexation of land, wishing that all the fertile farmland, mountains, forests, lakes, and lakes in the world were their own, killing people and robbing goods, taking them by force, was no different from bandits. In life, he was corrupt and spent money like dirt.
The eunuchs also led the Spirit Emperor to be dissolute and disorderly. They colluded with the Spirit Emperor to sell their official positions in the West Garden and controlled the Spirit Emperor to drive away the righteous and support the evil. As a result, the normal ruling order was destroyed and social contradictions rapidly intensified.
Based on Wang Ting's understanding and analysis of the current situation, he knew that the Yellow Turban Rebellion should not be far away. However, he really had no impression of the exact year. Moreover, he did not know that he would have the experience of transmigrating! If he had known earlier, he would have memorized ((The Three Kingdoms)) and ((Romance of the Three Kingdoms)) before coming.
Although he was joking, he still knew the general direction of history. After all, he had an impression of it from history classes in school, storytelling, and television dramas.
It seemed that his original plan was still incomplete. With his meager strength, he would definitely be implicated or even killed. It would be fine if he was lucky enough to be transmigrated back to the modern world. The key was that transmigration was not under his control. If he transmigrated to the barbarian era, wouldn't that be even more unlucky and difficult than the Three Kingdoms?
That kind of life was really not what he wanted. When he thought about being naked and having to fight with tigers, wolves, jackals, and leopards with a wooden stick, not to mention the wind, snow, sun, and rain, how could he bear to expose his little brother in the primitive forest and be bitten by unknown poisonous insects?
In novels, other than possessing young masters and princes, there were also people who brought modern equipment, such as notebooks. The notebooks were solar-powered, and they were not limited by time and space. Why am I not as happy as the novels say? Yes, I am happy. In comparison, I am so happy.
Since he had nothing to do, Wang Ting brought Wang Tao to the inner city for a stroll.
The ancients said that a leaf could tell the whole tree. That was probably what they said. Anyway, it was good for him to understand the current environment. Moreover, he had nothing to do while waiting for the news.
The inner city was much more prosperous than the outer city, and the pedestrians on the streets were also much more spirited than the outer city. After all, the inner city was mostly rich, and the people who suffered in the chaotic times were the people at the bottom.
The Mi Family also had other businesses in the inner city. Before leaving, the shopkeeper told Wang Ting that if he was hungry or tired, he could go to the inner city to rest. This showed how much the old comrade valued Wang Ting.
While feeling the characteristics of the ancient city, he looked at the shop signs on the roadside. The reason was that Wang Ting wanted to see if he could buy a map of this era. Although he had a general understanding of it, a map was still necessary. At the same time, he wanted to understand the current technological productivity and see what he could do with the things in his previous life. It would be best if he could produce pistols and cannons. Wang Ting knew that this was just a joke.
After crossing the street and turning a corner, they realized that many people were gathered together and pointing at them. Wang Ting and his wife curiously surrounded them.
It turned out to be a woman in her late teens kneeling on the ground. In front of her was a white cloth. On it was written that her hometown had encountered a locust plague. Her mother had died on the way to escape. When she arrived here, her father had also died of illness. The little money she had had was used to see a doctor. She had no choice but to sell her body to bury her father.
The woman was also beautiful and her body was very soft. Although her clothes were tattered, they were very clean. She should be from a good family.
In front of the woman was a man in his twenties. The man had fair skin, a standard appearance, and was dressed luxuriously. The only thing was that his eyes were evil. It was unknown which family he was from.
"How about it, Lil 'Miss, come with me. Your father will send someone to bury you. You will be my servant girl, and I will definitely let you taste the taste of sex, ha.。”
The others dared to be angry but did not say anything. The woman lowered her head and sipped silently.
Seeing that the woman was silent, the man lifted her chin and blew on her face." Why? You're still not happy? Who would dare to stop me if I forcefully take you away? Ha."。。”。
The few followers behind the disciple also threatened,"That's right, our Young Master Jin Lai is the Young Master of the Wu Ling County's Governor, Lord Jin Xuan. It's your fortune to meet here today. There are so many young ladies who want to be our Young Master's guest.”
"Who dares to bully a weak woman? Do you really think there's no law?!"
Jin Lai stood up and looked back. A big man in his forties squeezed in from the crowd. He was more than eight feet tall, about 175 in modern times. He had a square face and five locks of dark beard. He wore a square scarf and a cloth belt around his waist. His eyes were bright. "What are you going to do with what I say? Quickly let Lil 'Miss go.”
"Who are you? You actually dare to be the first.”At first, the disciple was a little scared when he saw the burly man. However, when he saw that there was no one else behind the burly man, he thought that he still had a few servants who knew kung fu and could not deal with one person.
"My name is Huang Zhong, and I'm from Nanyang. I advise you to listen to my words and leave quickly.”
Huang Zhong, damn, this was Liu Bei's Five Tiger Generals! He had to get to know her today and not let her go.
Wang Ting thought as he watched the development of the situation.
"I don't care if you're loyal or not. If you don't get rid of this person, don't tell me you want me to do it myself!”
Seeing that their master had given the order, the servants rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward without a word.
Huang Zhong quickly grabbed the wrist of the first person, swept his feet, and immediately put him down. Without waiting for the others to react, Wang Ting didn't see how Huang Zhong attacked. Some of them flew away, and some lay on the ground. They held their heads and legs, unable to get up for a while.
The one called Jin Lai was also so frightened that he couldn't move. He was used to using his father's power to lead a group of evil slaves to bully men and women. He had never seen such a scene before.
"Hurry up and get lost!" Wang Tao shouted at Wang Ting.
Only then did Jin Lai regain his strength and lead the evil slaves to flee in panic.
Wang Ting came in front of the woman and handed over ten taels of silver." Young Miss, hurry up and thank Benefactor Huang. There is some silver here. Other than the cost of burying your father, it should be enough for you to make a living."”After saying that, Wang Ting cupped his fists and said to Huang Zhong,""This warrior is righteous. Forgive me for trying to climb up the social ladder. Is it convenient for us to talk?”
"Ha, such a small matter is not worth mentioning. Thank you, Little Lord. I still have to take my son to see a doctor, so I won't disturb you.”With that, he cupped his hands at Wang Ting and turned to leave the crowd.
"Hero Huang, please wait for a moment. I wonder if I can take a look at your son's illness?”Wang Ting hurriedly said when he heard that Huang Zhong was leaving. Wang Ting suddenly remembered that Huang Zhong's son was called Huang Shu. When he was young, he suffered from cough and cough and died early. When Huang Zhong heard this, he actually stopped and turned around to say anxiously,""Does Young Master know a good doctor?"
"Ha, Hero Huang, please lead the way and I'll give you an answer, okay?”
"Alright." Huang Zhong didn't waste any more time. He turned around and walked out of the crowd. It turned out that there was a wooden cart parked outside the crowd. In the cart lay a sick young man around the age of 15 or 16. The young man was so thin that he was all skin and bones. His face was sallow, and he covered his mouth with his hand from time to time to cough. Wang Ting turned around and said to Wang Tao," Big Brother Wang Tao, I'll give you some silver. Go and buy some sweet pears and some cane sugar. Also, go to the pharmacy to see if there's any mint. If there's any, buy some too. Then, go back to the Mi Family Rice Shop."”With that, he took out five taels of silver from his clothes.
"Hero Huang, I don't know if my method is right, but I can give it a try. Why don't you come with me to the Mi Family's rice shop in the outer city and wait?”Wang Ting said to Huang Zhong after making the arrangements.
"Alright, I will do as you say. If you can really cure my son, I will repay you.”
On the way, Wang Ting learned that Huang Zhong was now a small officer at the city gate. His monthly salary was just enough for a family of three to eat. In addition, Huang Xu was seriously ill, and there was basically no savings at home. His life was no different from that of ordinary people.
"Looks like I still have a great chance!”Wang Ting thought to himself after understanding.
Huang Zhong hasn't been put in an important position yet, so he's giving you benefits. As for the relationship, there's still hope for you to befriend him.
The few of them arrived at the rice shop in a short while. Wang Ting arranged for the waiter to put the cart in the backyard while he and Huang Zhong carried Huang Xu to the courtyard where he lived.
Not long after, Wang Tao returned with bags of various sizes. To Wang Ting's surprise, he actually bought mint. Wang Ting arranged for Wang Tao to cut pears, sugar, and mint into a clay pot.
In fact, Wang Ting also knew that it was difficult to cure it this way. However, in his previous life, he knew that drinking pears boiled with white sugar or pears boiled with honey could greatly improve breathing. As he slowly let Huang Xu drink the brewed pear juice, as expected, little Huang Xu's cough was much lighter. Huang Zhong was overjoyed and asked,"How does my son feel?"
"Father, I feel much better after drinking it. My throat is as dry as before, and it feels cold.”Ha, Wang Ting knew that it was the mint that made it cool.
"Thank you, Young Master. I wonder where Young Master is from. Please tell me so that I can repay you.”
"Ha, Hero Huang, if you don't mind, can you allow us to address each other as brothers? If the world saved people and asked for repayment, wouldn't it be against morality? My name is Wang Ting, and I'm a local.”
"Brother Wang, your words are against the law. If you get up and don't think about repaying, isn't that against morality?”
Hah... The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
"Big Brother Huang, this method can cure Young Master's illness, but it's not enough to cure Kong Li. I know that there are two people with great medical skills who can cure Young Master Huang's illness.”
"Oh, may I know who this little brother is talking about and where he lives?”
"Big Brother Huang may not know, but I only know that there are two of them. As for where they are, I am not sure. But if you trust me, I will stay here for the time being. I believe that I will be able to find them for you soon and cure Young Master Huang.”How would I know where Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing are? I can't say that I don't know, right? If I say that, won't you leave immediately? Where can I catch up to the footsteps of you five good generals?
"How can I not trust my younger brother?”
When Wang Ting heard this, he was temporarily relieved.
"Brother Huang, you are now a lieutenant, do you know what the world is like? What should you do?"
"Sigh, the imperial court is now corrupt. There are eunuchs in power and chaos inside, and alien races outside. The people are in dire straits. I only have a body of ability, but unfortunately I can't save my Han Dynasty from fire and water.”
"What Brother Huang said is true. Death, also the people suffer. My younger brother also has the ambition to establish a heart for heaven and earth, to establish a life for the people, to inherit the great learning of the past saints, and to open up peace for all generations. Unfortunately, your body is weak. If you have the help of a like-minded brother, you will certainly be able to create an unprecedented achievement and revitalize the people of our Han Dynasty. After this matter is settled, you can lead the family to my place. First, you can take care of Huang Shu, and second, you can also watch the effect.”
Rise, the people suffer; Death, the people suffer. To establish a heart for heaven and earth, to establish a life for the people, to inherit the sacred arts of the past, and to create peace for the world. What kind of clear logic and ambition was this? It was so clear that Huang Zhong lowered his head and remained silent after listening to Wang Ting's words.
Wang Ting didn't interrupt Huang Zhong's thoughts. He knew that Huang Zhong was extremely loyal and was not inferior to Second Master Guan. He hadn't been promoted yet, and his son was seriously ill. Wang Ting owed him a favor.
Although it wasn't enough to make it recognize him as its master, it shouldn't be a problem to make him follow him for the time being.
As long as she followed him, he believed that with more than a thousand years of knowledge, he would definitely be able to make her loyal to him.
If he could get Huang Zhong's help, he would be able to completely change his strength and foundation. In this chaotic world, even if he couldn't create an emperor's foundation, he could still ensure a peaceful life. This depended on whether he could seize the opportunity in this chaotic world.
"Alright, since the younger brother of the Wang Clan has done me a favor, how can I not repay him? I'll just follow my younger brother's arrangements.”Huang Zhong cupped his fists and bowed to Wang Ting.
"Big brother is too polite. You must not be like this in the future. I love big brother like a fish getting water, ha.。。”At this moment, Wang Ting couldn't help but laugh. F * ck, it really wasn't easy. Fortunately, the ancients were sincere. As long as they gave him a small favor, they would follow him. Based on Huang Zhong's martial strength, I can cultivate some loyal soldiers from scratch. With the paper, I believe that I will be able to gain a place in the future feudal vassals 'struggle for loyalty.
