Chapter 131: The Value of Life
Yun Zhao didn't communicate much with Luo Yagu and Deng Yuhan, these things were all done by Xu Yuanshou.
First, he was too young for these people to have a desire to communicate with him in detail, and only hoped that he would ensure that his research process would not be interrupted by trivial matters such as money.
Second, Yun Zhao didn't know the direction of their research, and now he rashly hoped that they would devote themselves to the research of gunpowder, artillery, and firearms, and there were still some problems.
Yun Zhao felt that these people were useful, but he needed to get acquainted with them before he could start.
The pirates, the prostitutes were very cute, especially the prostitutes, who had just come to Yushan, washed up and prepared to do business, and actively asked them which chief they could keep them safe with the money they earned.
And those pirates, after learning that they would not be hanged and were about to become craftsmen, naturally asked the Yun robbers what their wages were!
Every pirate is actually a qualified craftsman, which is determined by the natural environment, and there are no idlers on the pirate ship, everyone needs to show the value of their existence on the ship, and most importantly, these pirates will fire!
Will fire all kinds of cannons.
They have seen all kinds of backward artillery, they have fired many cannons, and most importantly, they have also been bombarded by the most advanced artillery in the world.
It was based on this that Xu Guangqi bought these seemingly useless prisoners of war for Yun Zhao.
The prostitutes came with the pirates, and when they were at sea, they belonged to a symbiosis with the pirates, and no matter how hard the pirates fought with each other, they would not hurt these prostitutes in the end, and of course, those who accidentally died during the firefight did not count.
The pirate leader who won the battle naturally had the power to collect the poll tax from the prostitutes, and at the same time received the protection of the robber leader.
So, in a sense, these women are not slaves.
Yun Zhao didn't plan to open a green house in Yushan, and although Yun Hu felt pity, Yun Zhao was still ready to use these women as maids.
As for the pirates who begged for wages, Yunhu had 10,000 ways to make them forget about their wages and work wholeheartedly.
In any case, Yun Zhao's arrangements in Yushan have been preliminarily completed.
Leave the rest to time, and he will slowly blend all the loose, out of place, and even the wrong things into a whole, and become stronger as the time goes on.
On May 24, the weather was boring.
The stingy Zhang Daodao held a banquet in Xi'an City this time, and Yun Zhao naturally participated, and the banquet was full of water and land, a rare luxury!
There was a white human head in the center of the banquet!
Of course, this human head is not a real human head, but is carved out of tofu.
This head also has a nice name - Wang Jiayin!
Zhang Daodao held chopsticks and greeted the officials to eat, he took out Wang Jiayin's eyeballs with his first chopsticks, put them in his mouth and chewed, he ate so refreshingly that the grapes that were used as eyeballs burst in his mouth, and the juice splashed.
"Wang Jiayin's head was obtained by General Cao Wenzhao, colleagues, we can only eat this head made of tofu here, and relieve the hatred in the hearts of our generation."
Yun Zhao also took a bite of Wang Jiayin's head, there was no special taste, but the hair cabbage used as hair still had some characteristics.
Wang Jiayin was killed by his own subordinates, Cao Wenzhao picked up a big bargain, and after getting Wang Jiayin's head, what awaited him was the fate of being promoted and making a fortune.
The benefits of this head are far more than this, but also benefit Shaanxi officials, Zhang Daodao's transfer documents have finally come down, and in two months, he can take his family back to Nanjing to serve as a left waiter.
Because of this, there is this sumptuous feast.
People are all the same, and when they live their lives, they always want to save their own family, and don't let other people's families go bad.
When you don't think about living a life, you can't wait to drink wine and meat every day to compensate for your poverty in the past.
An official who leaves his post is not a qualified official if he does not spend all the money in the treasury.
This was almost an act of revenge, after all, his previous officials had left him with an empty warehouse where rats could starve to death.
After all, Wang Jiayin is dead, even if his head is really boiled and eaten by the emperor, but Wang Jiayin's subordinates were not eliminated at the first time, they continue to assemble in Yangcheng, Shanxi, preparing to brew a larger battle.
There is no man-made rebellion among the people in Lantian County.
Everyone is now busy preparing for the harvest, and they don't care about rebellion.
After the crops are harvested, everyone will be busy grinding the field, and then they will have to dry the grain, and there will be no time to rebel.
After the summer harvest, autumn grain will be planted, and after the autumn grain harvest, a daughter-in-law will be married, and the child planted last winter should be born at this time.
Not only the people of Lantian County are like this, even the displaced people who have entered Lantian County to beg for a living also think so, they have to work every day to earn money, earn food, and want to save more food every day.
When people do these things, it's easy to forget the unfair things they've experienced before.
This is the thing that is at work, and hence the strange saying that tribulation is wealth.
Yun Zhao does not believe this statement, he believes that the hardships that people have suffered before are actually personal disasters, bad luck, bad things, but not wealth.
Yun Zhao, who was born as an official, never believed in hope, he only believed in what appeared in front of him, and he had no intention of understanding what he didn't understand, what he didn't know.
Hope belongs to scholars, to students, to those who suffer, but not to officials, because officials are the executors who promote what has matured, and things that are too advanced basically have all kinds of defects.
Officials basically don't talk about hope, and if an official talks to you about hope, it's that you're about to be out of luck.
Zhang Daodao is now starting to discuss the future of Shaanxi with Yun Zhao!
"The big thief is the head, and the rest of the giants are about to be exterminated, Shaanxi is about to usher in the era of great governance, but unfortunately, the old man finally looked forward to stability and finally cheapened others.
Xiao Zhao, you are so blessed, if you stay up for a few more years, you will be able to be reused, hahaha, in the future, it is not the old man and others who will take care of you, but you Xiao Zhao will take care of us old people. โ
Yun Zhao frowned and said, "Lantian County is just able to eat now, even if it is a little leftover, it will have to pay off the debts owed in the previous two years......"
Zhang Daodao finally sighed and said, "Sure enough, it's a person who walks to tea and cool." โ
For this sentence, Yun Zhao refused to accept it.
Zhang Daodao wanted some bribes, but Yun Zhao naturally didn't give them!
How can there be a gift for a departing official?
There was no such thing hundreds of years ago, and there will be no such truth hundreds of years from now!
Yun Zhao left Xi'an that night, and until Yun Zhao's figure disappeared, Zhang Daodao did not get what he expected.
However, he still understands very well, if he is placed in Yun Zhao's position, he will make the same choice.
Wang Jiayin's death did not touch Yun Zhao much, this was originally something that should have happened in history.
For Yun Meng, Yun Hu and these people are different.
When Yun Zhao returned to the Yun family Zhuangzi, he was dragged to a meeting by these elders.
"The Yun clan can't rob anymore in the future."
This is the tone set by Yun Meng.
"Our family is now better off without relying on robbery." When Yunhu said this, his eyes were facing the ground, and he was not dissatisfied.
"Big thieves like Wang Jiayin are dead, it seems that the thief can't do more, our family has been working for hundreds of years, and it's time to stop."
Yun Zhao looked at the two elders who regarded robbery as their life's work, and didn't know what to say.
can make the two old robbers determined to change their minds, it seems that Wang Jiayin's death has touched them too much.
"Okay, let's stop looting."
Yun Zhao agreed to the suggestion of the two elders, and it was obvious that they breathed a long sigh of relief.
In the past, when I was poor, life was basically meaningless, so robbery was a matter of course and a must-do.
Now that they are rich, life has become valuable, and robbery has become less cost-effective.
Yun Zhao smiled, he felt that this was his second achievement in this world.
โโEnhance the value of everyone's life!
