Chapter 2 Old man, are you not sick?
"Hitomi, slow down, don't run, my mother can't run, come back quickly." A beautiful young woman was crying out anxiously as she chased a child who looked like seven years old. "Hehe, mother, you can't catch up with me, you can't catch up with me, so I don't want to memorize any "General History of Central China"! Not only is it boring, but it's too simple and not fun. The little boy in front of the beautiful woman turned around and said, pouting a small mouth to express his dissatisfaction, and blinking pitifully at these big eyes, what beautiful eyes they were! as if endowed with life, and they were golden, "Okay, okay! Mother is afraid of you, don't study for the time being, if you don't memorize it now, I will test you at night! If you can't answer the osmanthus crisp after dinner, you can cancel it!" The beautiful woman threatened very cunningly.
"Wow! I don't want it, I don't want it, I want to eat it, I'll carry it after a while, hum, my mother is too bad, not good!" It was obvious that the osmanthus cake was very lethal to the little boy, and he quickly surrendered. He made a grimace and ran back to the house by himself, I am afraid that he will honestly recite the "General History of Central China".
"Yue'er, you really spoil him too much, otherwise with you, how could that stinky boy run away? But it's also for him!" A gentle male voice came from behind the beautiful woman. The beautiful woman turned around and smiled softly, quietly snuggled into the man's arms and said: "Zhongxiong, I really don't want to * Hitomi too tight, he is still so young, most of the books in the study at home have been memorized, and that is the books that contain the entire continent! He is only seven years old, although Hitomi has been brilliant since he was a child, and has the ability to never forget, but this is too tiring, I really want to give him a happy childhood, am I wrong?" Yue Yue said, her eyes turned red, and she looked helplessly at the golden pupil and entered the room.
"Alas, this is also a matter of no way, Jin Tong as our son, the only direct heir of the Jin family, he has been destined for everything since birth, and knowing the ancient and modern is the most basic ability, but reading more books is also of great benefit to him, and Jin Tong is still so smart, it can even be said to be a freak, and it is as easy to carry those as it is to eat, it is too happy for my father. I was shocked to have so much to carry on him at the age of twelve. This kid can't be compared!"
"Go, how can you not talk about your son, no matter what, it's still our baby? But have you settled down with those refugees?"
Jin Zhongxiong frowned when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "It's not that simple, this time the orc riot in the north has attacked many villages, displacing tens of thousands of villagers and making them miserable, this time more than 10,000 people have fled to our Tianyao City, as the city lord, I naturally have to appease them well." Alas, these abominable orcs, they don't have to die well!" Kim Joong-woong became more and more agitated the more he spoke, clenching his fists, his eyes as if they were about to erupt into flames, and it was obvious how angry he was at this moment.
Yue Yue sighed secretly when she heard this, stretched out her jade hand and pressed it on Jin Zhongxiong's chest, trying to calm his anger, and said: "Zhongxiong, don't be too angry, sooner or later there will be a solution, now we must first solve the problem of their residence, we still have a lot of food, but the open space is enough"
"Alas, I also understand that the refugees who came here a year ago have already occupied the remaining vacant land, and the planting land cannot be returned to farmland, otherwise the food supply will not be available. However, I plan to tear down a section of the city wall at the south gate to expand the city again, but the funds of the city treasury are also a little short, it seems that the reserve funds of the city lord's mansion will be used, and there is also a problem of manpower, this project is not small, and it will use a lot of strong men, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction. Jin Zhongxiong frowned again.
"Stupid! What kind of problem is this, do you think, there are at least more than 20 cities in the whole north, but more than 10,000 people have come to us, accounting for the vast majority, which also reflects the quality of this city from the side, you, the city lord, have done so well and naturally attracted most of the refugees to defect, and now you are willing to pay your own money to build a home for them, they are naturally very willing to help, and they may not need you to pay your salary!" Yue Yue nodded Jin Zhongxiong's forehead and said crisply.
"Crescent moon, Yue'er, you really woke up the person in your dream with a word, you can't figure out the problem in the meantime, it seems that you are really too tired these days, and your brain is a little difficult to use. Okay! I'm going to deploy this now, and the salary still has to be paid, and one person can get one gold coin a month, not too much, but it's okay. Yue'er, I'll go first. Jin Zhongxiong suddenly smiled, kissed Yueyue excitedly and trotted out of the backyard. Yueyue's face suddenly turned slightly red, and she said strangely: "What an old man." Then he turned and left.
In a blink of an eye, it was time for dinner, and there were only three people sitting at the table, and the food was not too rich, and the specifications of ordinary small rich families were eaten! After all, the city lord Jin Zhongxiong was still a relatively simple person, and he didn't like extravagance and waste.
During the meal, Yueyue put down the chopsticks in her hand, looked at the little golden pupil and said: "Tong'er, the "General History of Central China" memorized in the afternoon should be good!
Xiao Jintong nodded his little head, straightened his small chest with great confidence, and said: "Mother, just ask, I will definitely be able to recite it, it's too simple, but it's only thirteen copies, I'll be able to do it in an hour." ”
Yue Yue glanced at Jin Tong appreciatively and said, "Who is the founding emperor of our Central China Empire?" "Emperor Huawu, in the 183rd year of the prosperous calendar, defeated Dong Zheng, liberated the people of Central China and was proclaimed emperor, there are seventy-three people from now on. Jin Tong blurted out without hesitation, and even said more.
"How many upper cities are there in the Central China Empire, the middle city and the lower city, and what kind of Tianyao City does it belong to?"
"There are twelve upper cities, thirty-six middle cities, and seventy-two lower cities. Our Tianyao City is only a mid-city, and the mid-city ranks eleventh. It has a total population of 380,000. ”
"How many large-scale wars has the Central China Empire experienced?"
"Thirteen times, all of them have ended in final victories, and they have become the first of the three empires, followed by the Sihan Empire and the Kaiben Empire. ”
"Central China"
“”
"Okay, very good, the answers are very accurate, and they go beyond my mother's question, not bad!" Yue Yue happily touched the little head of the golden pupil and said.
Jin Tong was extremely excited to hear his mother's praise for him, and raised his little head triumphantly. Then he blinked pitifully and looked at Yueyue, as if he was begging for something.
Yue Yue patted his head lightly, and took a small plate of osmanthus crisp from the maid behind him, Huang Cancan's look was appetizing, after all, this is one of the specialties of Tianyao City, and it is famous throughout the country. Yueyue put three pieces of osmanthus crisp into the bowl of golden pupils, and the golden pupils suddenly lit up, and the golden pupils seemed to be even brighter, and eagerly sent the osmanthus crisp to taste in her mouth, full of happiness and happiness.
Yue Yue lovingly watched the little golden pupil eating his favorite thing, and after a while, she looked up at Jin Zhongxiong and said: "Zhongxiong, there is still half a moon pupil to celebrate his seventh birthday, and according to the clan rules, it is time for him to practice, the exercises are okay, you have the Jin family's "Aotian Jue", and I also have the Yue family's "Baguio Sutra", but we don't have light attribute martial arts!
"This is a problem, don't worry, in a few days, I will go to the family in the Imperial City to find out if there is a light attribute martial art, if not, I will search for it all over the country at a high price, if not, it will be the entire continent, it should be nothing." Our son is so qualified, practicing martial arts or something must be as easy as endorsement. He is our son, and his kung fu is naturally much better than mine. Kim Joong-woong didn't care. Naturally, I was extremely happy in my heart.
"Daddy, is it fun to practice? Is martial arts also very important? Are you very happy when I practice well? Hey, then I will definitely work hard and I will not let you down." Well, it's delicious," Jin Tong said innocently while eating osmanthus crisp.
"This is natural, then you will understand, in this continent where strength is respected, superb cultivation is essential, but you don't have to force it, and your father and mother won't blame you. Kim Joong-woong said with a smile.
Jin Tong nodded as if he didn't understand, and secretly said that he must not let his father and mother down, and he must practice hard and give his father and mother a long face. After thinking about it, I happily ate my favorite osmanthus cake.
Time flies by in a blink of an eye, and a full five years have passed. In front of a nearly three-meter-high trial stone on the outskirts of Tianyao City, a handsome young man who looked like he was eleven or twelve years old was closing his eyes and thinking about something. The young man has red lips and white teeth, looks heroic and extraordinary, although he is still young, but it is enough to see that his appearance is outstanding, and he must be a ** character who fascinates thousands of girls in a few years. However, at this moment, he frowned, and sat with his knees crossed in front of the trial stone. This stone is made of special raw materials, unless you have Yuan Li, it will never be broken, which is also a good stone to test Yuan Li.
After half a sound, the young man opened his eyes suddenly, as if there was a golden light shooting out, and then stood up straight, took a deep breath, brewed, stretched out his right hand and slapped the stone, "bump", the stone was okay, still standing still, without a trace of scarring.
The boy sighed in disappointment and stared helplessly at the stone with his golden eyes. sighed and said: "Alas, Golden Pupil, Golden Pupil, are you really just a waste as the people in the clan say? Why did you practice hard for five years without a trace of Yuan Li sprouting. Even the most basic stone breaking can't be completed, those younger brothers have at least five yuan power, but you are still a waste material without yuan power, why, why is this?" the young man looked up to the sky and sighed, stretched out his hand and slapped himself, his eyes were red but there were no tears.
It turned out that the young man was really the son of the city lord five years ago, but because he was very qualified, he practiced hard for five years and failed. Just as he was about to get up and leave, suddenly a surprised voice came from behind him. "Ah! It's terrible, it's terrible, the little friend in front of you, please stay, I saw a beam of golden light shooting out from your heavenly spirit cover, and the bones are exquisite, it is a martial arts wizard who has not been in ten thousand years, it just so happens that I only have this Kuangshi Gongfa, and I will buy it for you for ten gold coins." ”
Jin Tong himself was unhappy for a while, and when he heard the joking words here, he turned around and scolded regardless of his own cultivation: "Old man, are you not sick?"
