So he was an old man with a story.
Lin Zhexian was a little surprised, but he didn't probe further.
After all.
Li Yuan was no longer the general from back then.
Right now, he was just a village chief of Zhishui County. From another perspective, he was still Lin Zhexian's subordinate.
He picked up a great expert for free.
"Muramasa, you don't mind showing us around Zhishui County, right?”
Lin Zhexian asked.
"Of course not."
Li Yuan nodded.
Even though he was once a general on horseback who had fought in all directions, he felt that his brain was not enough. Why did the imperial court change Zhishui Village to Zhishui County?
And why…
Sending such a young county magistrate?
He didn't understand.
Everyone dismounted and followed Li Yuan slowly. He sighed and said,"Zhishui Village is a village established by His Majesty after he ascended the throne. It is used to accommodate the soldiers who are injured on the battlefield.”
"Unfortunately…"
Hearing this.
Lin Zhexian suddenly understood something and couldn't help but sigh at the darkness of the imperial court's struggles.
Sergeant.
In ancient times, compared to the literati, they had always been inferior.
The disabled soldiers who should have been treated well were now ignored by no one. They could only coop themselves up in this land that lacked land and muddle along.
Needless to say, he knew that it was definitely the civil officials in the court who wanted to suppress the military officials.
He walked inside.
Only then did Lin Zhexian realize that there was another world here.
As Tao Yuanming, a famous scholar of the Jin Dynasty, said,"The land is flat and the houses are solemn."
The land was not suitable for farming.
Along the way-
Lin Zhexian had seen the most soldiers who had retired from the battlefield due to injuries. Most of them had broken arms and legs.
After watching for a while.
Lin Zhexian's impression of Zhishui County could only be described with one word-poor!
Poor!
Very poor!
A dilapidated thatched cottage, a linen shirt with pudding, a hungry little boy who was as thin as a monkey, and a peasant woman who was doing the rough work that only men could do…
"Magistrate."
Li Yuan smiled bitterly." You've seen what it's like. This place of ours is really too poor, and it's not suitable for farming." We can only go hunting!"
"Not far away is the deep mountains. There are many wild beasts in the mountains. The people of Zhishui County have been hunting for a living all these years.”
Tsk.
Emperor Li Yuan was deliberately making things difficult for Lin Zhexian!
It seemed like…
Li Yuan had also done some research.
Otherwise, how could he find such a place?
Lin Zhexian inadvertently glanced over and saw a few children in tattered linen clothes hiding behind a big tree.
He looked at them with a strange expression.
"You little fellows, do you want some candy? I have some sugar cubes here. I can give you some.”
Lin Zhexian said.
Candy!
The children looked at each other and could see the intention in each other's eyes.
He almost drooled.
After all, candy was very scarce these days. Other than the New Year and other big occasions, how could these children eat candy?
However, Lin Zhexian was a stranger.
He did not dare to get close.
"Hahaha!"
Seeing this.
Li Yuan couldn't help but smile. His aged face revealed a kind expression.
He said,"You little kids, come here. This is the new county magistrate. He's not a bad person."”
He distributed all the sweets he brought to the children.
Lin Zhexian thought to himself,"It's a pity that the Great Tang already has candied haws. Otherwise, just candied haws would be a very good way to make money."”
"Candied Haws?"
"What's candied haws?" Li Shimin asked in surprise.”
Eh?
Don't know about candied haws!
Lin Zhexian was a little surprised as he looked at Li Yuan.
Li Yuan shook his head." I've lived here for so many years. I often bring my prey to Chang 'an to sell. I've never heard of candied haws."”
No!
Great Tang.
There was no candied haws!
Lin Zhexian was a little confused. After killing Li Jiancheng's son, the little girl he met was clearly holding a candied haws.
Could it be that he saw wrongly?
Thinking about it carefully, it was really possible that he had seen wrongly.
At that time, the ground was covered in scarlet blood. It was very likely that a small toy ball was stained with the blood on the ground.
It looked like candied haws.
The corners of Lin Zhexian's mouth curled up slightly as he said,""I think I know how to make the first move.”
