Chapter 769: The Ugly Brother is Back
Back in Chang'an, the ugly brother has wiped his eyes three times.
And Ruxue, who was carrying a stocky and cute child on the side with an obvious maternal smile on her face, looked at the ugly brother like this, and couldn't help but say, "Husband, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Like snow," the ugly brother was still in a dream until he entered the city, and said in disbelief: "When the victims of Chang'an were at home, you were raising a baby at home." I didn't see the tragic situation in Chang'an. But now, this is still Chang'an, it's clearly Fufeng! ”
"Fufeng?" Huang Zhong, who was behind the ugly brother, heard this, and couldn't help but step forward and ask: "Nephew, that Fufeng County is even more prosperous and wealthy than Chang'an?" ”
"Uncle, you don't know." The ugly brother scratched his head, and after he really couldn't think of anything to describe Fufeng in his mind, he simply said: "My ugly brother has also been traveling south and north for more than ten years, I can pat my chest and tell you, Fufeng County is the most prosperous place my ugly brother has ever seen, and that was a year ago........."
"What the ugly brother said should be true." Wen Ping frowned and pondered for a moment, then said: "Han Sheng, although I have seen the scene of a natural disaster in Chang'an for half a year. But if you think about it, Chang'an is so blazing now. It is conceivable that the rise of the Ma family will be where Fufeng will go? ”
After hearing this, Huang Zhong also nodded silently. The group of people, like ordinary tourists, but with the memory of the ugly brother, they inquired all the way forward. However, even so, Chang'an has changed too much. The ugly brother has been lost several times. In the end, there was no way, Ruxue girl had to speak softly: "Husband, it's really not good, let's show the identity of the shadow........"
"Absolutely not!" The ugly brother's face immediately turned a little dark. Thinking that he was also one of the best characters in the shadows, he couldn't find the way when he got home, and he really responded to the sentence: Shame on you and leave home........
Fortunately, Huang Zhong and Wen Ping were also quite interested, suggesting that the ugly brother did not need to be in a hurry to see Ma Chao, and the group went shopping again.
And this time, the ugly brother was even more shocked. Walking around the streets and alleys, it is obvious that this big city of Longxing is no longer what it used to be. Even people who are careless by chance like Brother Ugly have found that this place is much denser.
When they first entered the city, the group saw that the city wall of Chang'an had not only been repaired, but also increased and thickened. Moreover, on the outside, it is no longer the pitted masonry. It is smooth and clean, as if it has undergone several years of natural hand-carved grinding, just looking at the appearance, it gives people an unbreakable and solid psychological impression. It really makes those foreigners who only have cavalry sigh.
The shops on Chang'an Avenue are much denser, and the storefronts of each house are simply outrageous. Each shop is hung with eye-catching signs, banners, and even tall colorful buildings built with colorful silks........ The ugly brother is no stranger to those, which was first used in brothels to solicit business, but now, ordinary merchants are also used to attract attention.
Looking along the street, countless colorful and colorful shops compete for beauty, and under the high-gate shops, it seems that all the victims of the disaster have moved back. These people, with distinctly different accents and strange dresses, and deep-nosed aliens........ Some of them do it to make a living, some to buy goods, and some of them come purely for admiration.
The ugly brother couldn't figure out why Chang'an City was suddenly reborn and reborn in just over half a year. After chatting and inquiring all the way, I realized that it was all the handiwork of the lord.
After Ma Chao wrote the "Ma Family's Development Outline for the Next Year", the Ma family, driven by Ma Chao's leadership and practice, carried out the economic war of 'Zhongxing Division, restoring the glory of the heart of the Han Dynasty'.
The first thing to start with was to implement the new policy and win the hearts and minds of the people. After the Ma family surveyed the population again and reissued the land and houses,
He began to transport winter wheat into Chang'an, and began to increase production and income in one place. This was followed by the promotion of new tools, the transformation of farmland and water conservancy in various places, and other germs of hope.
Immediately afterward, the Ma family launched the second round of the Ma family's imperial examination. In this imperial examination, the scope of talent selection is wider, the number of candidates is larger, and scholars and people with knowledge and ability from all over the country regard it as the will of heaven for the Ma family to carry out the imperial examination in the treasure land of Longxing in the Great Han Dynasty. Countless people have dreams and traveled thousands of miles to the heart of the Han Dynasty.
This is the first small sensation in Chang'an from the outside in. The second sensation was when the Ma family attracted investment, merchants from all over the country came to settle in, driven by huge interests, Chang'an gradually rejuvenated, with a new atmosphere of fireworks.
After that, needless to say, Chang'an bloomed his energy under the accumulation of thick hair. Factories and workshops, farmland and water conservancy, shops and commerce, post-disaster reconstruction and other matters have been strengthened. And those who were picked up in the second batch of scholars almost took office as soon as they entered the list and threw themselves into the great construction of the Ma family.
Until this time, the ugly brother had already made up his mind in his heart. He turned around and smiled at Huang Zhong and Wen Ping, and said, "Let's go out of the city, the lord will definitely not be in the city today." ”
"Why?" Before Huang Zhongwenpin could speak, Ruxue asked first.
"Since the winter wheat has been sown in the Sili area, this time must be the time of the spring harvest, and the lord is in the city, how can he sit still?" The ugly brother explained, knowing that women love their families a lot, and said, "Ruxue, you go back first." Let's see if Wang Ling treats our little daughter badly........"
Wang Ling is naturally the daughter-in-law who snatched the apprentice and daughter from Wang Yue's swordsman. After more than a year, the flower-like sister paper was finally savagely conquered by the domineering ugly man of the ugly brother, and he was very obedient to the ugly brother.
And it was at this time that the ugly brother suddenly saw a black horse roaring in Chang'an City. Immediately, the knight was quite skilled, and his riding skills could be described as superb. On Chang'an Avenue, although it was bustling, the man could see the stitches and needles passing through, and he was not startled by one person.
However, his riding skills ended there. Because the location of Brother Ugly and his party is still a residential area, there is not much flow of people. Further on, there is a commercial area with a high flow of people, and even if he rides to the sky, it is impossible to fly over the surging crowd.
But even so, Brother Ugly, Huang Zhong, and Wen Ping also had a fire rising in their hearts: under the rule of the Ma family in Chang'an, there were still such arrogant and rebellious people riding horses on the street, they were simply dizzy!
But gradually, after Brother Ugly and Huang Zhong saw the dazzling brocade clothes behind the knight, their faces couldn't help but become extremely strange. The two looked at each other with an incomprehensible wry smile. Only Wen Ping strode forward, and it seemed that he was going to intercept the knight.
It was at this moment that the knight leaped over a child who had fallen to the ground, and did not hurt him in the slightest. But Wen Ping can't look at it now, grab a step, and attack the dark horse that is as strong as a dragon with a fist!
"Zhongye, no!"
"General Wen, don't do it!!"
Huang Zhong and Brother Ugly shouted at the same time, but under the shock, the dark horse was about to be hit to the ground by Wen Ping! But in the next moment, Huang Zhong and the ugly brother saw that the knight actually flew up, and after catching Wen Ping's fist in the air, he turned over and twisted it, and directly threw Wen Ping away!
"Lord!!" After all, the ugly brother is the Ma family, and it is Ma Chao who comes up to care.
"Zhongye!!" Huang Zhong is different, he originally had a very good impression of Ma Chao and the Ma family, but when he saw Ma Chao's arrogant performance, his face couldn't help but be cold, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help Wen Ping.
And Wen Ping, who fell, heard the ugly brother's shout, coughed lightly twice, looked at Ma Chao, who was as warm as jade and as fierce as a tiger, and said: "How can you follow such a domineering lord?!" ”
