"Yes, yes, we just want to kowtow to the boss."
"Go fast, don't mess with the young master here, or you will deduct your wages."
"You dare to deduct our wages, believe it or not we touched your house in the middle of the night and chopped your head?!"
"..."
The people of Xining City have lived on the border for a long time, have seen horse thieves rampant, have seen large troops entering, and have seen huge bandits cause disaster.
Most of the wicked people in the world have seen them.
I have also fought against these wicked people, so the folkway is extremely sturdy.
The stewards persuaded for a long time, and the people refused to leave.
Also threatened.
The stewards had no choice but to inform the chief steward of the matter.
Then I saw that the middle-aged man who had been busy for a long time and had no results appeared again in front of Kou Ji.
"Little Master..."
Kou Ji stared at him coldly, and said, "That's how you help the mansion to take care of the business? No matter how bad the people are?"
The middle-aged man said with a bitter face: "The people here are sturdy, young master, you also tell the little people to go out for business and not to bully others. The little people can't help them.
Kou Ji frowned and said, "It's the same in the workshop on weekdays?"
The middle-aged man hurriedly shook his head and said, "That's not true. Although the people here are tough, they are also upright. As long as we set the rules, do things in accordance with the rules, and do not break the rules, they will not break the rules."
Having said this, the middle-aged man glanced at Kou Ji and added, “Not only will they not break the rules, they will also spontaneously help us maintain the rules. Many people who break the rules will not wait for us to punish them. Will be the first to take the shot."
After finishing talking about the middle-aged man, Kou Ji has roughly understood what the people here are like.
The people here have lived in the unruly and evil land for a long time, and they have become very confessional, and they are also very eager to have good rules to control all the evil people, so that they can have a good life.
Now that Kou Ji has sent people to help them live a good life, they naturally have to help Kou Ji maintain the rules.
Kou Ji frowned and said, "Why don't they leave?"
The middle-aged man looked weird and said: "They have to kowtow to you. If the little people don't let them kowtow, they won't leave."
Kou Ji pondered: "Before our people came here, the people here had a hard time?"
The middle-aged man nodded earnestly and said: "Before the little people arrive in Xining City, Xining City will starve to death thousands of people every winter. After the little people arrive in Xining City, except for some lazy people or wicked people, they will never be hungry again. People have died."
Kou Jichang sighed.
"No wonder..."
No wonder the people of Xining City will take the initiative to salute Kou Ji.
No wonder they would take the initiative to ask Kou Ji to kowtow.
Kou Ji has a living grace for them.
This matter does not need a middle-aged person to explain, Kou Ji can also figure it out.
The location of Xining Prefecture is far worse than that of Baozhou.
It is the land of the four wars again.
The life of the people is far worse than the people of Baozhou before the rich.
Kou Ji sent people to set up workshops in Xining City and recruit workers, which gave the people of Xining a way to survive.
As long as they are willing to work hard, they can receive wages and rations in major workshops.
Kou Ji's wages were very generous.
Enough for them to support their families.
"Go find someone who can talk to the people and let them come."
Kou Ji gave an order.
The middle-aged man hurriedly agreed and ran to the people.
Not long after, he led a one-armed man and appeared in front of Kou Ji.
The body of the one-armed man is much bigger than the average person, he has a big beard, is not angry and looks very brave.
Liu Heng, who was not far behind Kou Ji, saw this person appear, and decisively walked to Kou Ji's side and stared at him vigilantly.
However, after this person saw Liu Heng, his pupils shrank and stared at Liu Heng vigilantly.
The middle-aged man has been observing Kou Ji's face, so he didn't see the expressions of the one-armed man and Liu Heng.
The middle-aged man introduced to Kou Ji: "Little young master, this person's name is Li Daniu. He used to be a member of the deputy Cao's secret envoy. When the barbarians were offending the side, this man led his brothers and killed hundreds of people. The barbarians who entered Xining City were deeply loved by the people of Xining City.
Five years ago, a scout in Xixia broke into the Xining area, was hit by this person, killed him, and broke an arm.
Later, he withdrew from the ranks and stayed in Xining City. "
Kou Ji stared at Li Daniu, "Used in the army before?"
Li Daniu stared at Liu Heng, and after hesitating again and again, he suddenly rushed towards Liu Heng.
Kou Ji and the middle-aged people were all taken aback.
Liu Heng immediately threw himself out.
The two stood together.
Although Li Daniu lacked an arm, his martial arts was not weak. With enough strength, he was on par with Liu Heng.
Kou Ji stared at Liu Heng and Li Daniu fighting vigorously, a little confused.
He leaned deeply into his arms, touched the handle of the short-barreled musket, hesitated for a moment, did not pull it out.
When Li Daniu jumped out just now, it was Liu Heng who pounced, not him.
This shows that Li Daniu did not intend to assassinate him.
Since he didn't assassinate him, but rushed towards Liu Heng in front of him, then there must be a reason for this.
Kou Ji had a sullen face, staring at Li Daniu and asking, "Who are you on earth?"
While fighting against Liu Heng, Li Daniu shouted: "Before the humble post was a pawn under General Cao. This person is 80% as an assassin, and he asked his boss to send someone to take him."
Kou Ji was stunned when he heard the words.
Liu Heng repelled Li Daniu and snorted coldly: "Why do you say I am an assassin?"
Li Daniu shouted: "When I was helping people find horses, I ran into you in Qingtang. You are a general of a small tribe in Qingtang. You are hiding by your boss's side, and you must be ill-informed."
When Kou Ji heard this, he was taken aback for a moment and laughed out loud.
Liu Heng retracted his fist and stood still and laughed loudly.
Li Daniu frowned, staring at Liu Heng vigilantly, and said coldly: "I remember your face, you can't even think about it."
Liu Heng laughed and said, "I did stay in Qingtang and served as a general in Qingtang, but I am not an assassin."
Li Daniu was about to speak.
I heard Kou Ji speak first: "Okay... A misunderstanding... Don't fight anymore..."
Li Daniu frowned.
Seeing that he did not hesitate to fight with Liu Heng for his own sake, Kou Ji explained a few more words, "Liu Heng is the official affair of the Imperial Secretary of the Song Dynasty, and the confidant of the official.
Before that, he served as a general in Qingtang to complete the tasks assigned to him by the officials.
Not his intention. "
Liu Heng served as a general in Qingtang, it was a foolish account.
Kou Ji's two sentences were also unclear to Li Daniu.
In order to prevent the two from continuing to fight, Kou Ji made a statement that was sufficient to win the trust of Li Daniu.
When Li Daniu heard this, his cheeks hidden by his thick beard were a little blushing, and he asked uncertainly: "Really?"
Kou Ji smirked and said, "Could it be that I'm an emperor's imperial envoy, I will lie to you."
Li Daniu put away his fists and said awkwardly: "It's the villain who is abrupt."
Kou Ji raised his brows, "Didn't you just call yourself a humble job?"
Li Daniu said with a dry smile: "That was to win the trust of the boss... The villain is no longer in the army now, and there is no way to call himself a humble job in front of the boss."
Kou Ji nodded and asked, "I heard that you have a high prestige in the hearts of the people in Xining City."
Li Daniu humbly said: "What others praised is uncountable."
Kou Ji continued to ask: "Is there any way you can let these people go?"
Li Daniu was stunned for a moment, and shook his head: "The boss has a life-saving grace for them, and they can't give them anything good to repay you, so they can only kowtow to you, thank you for your life-saving grace.
This is their intention, and the villain can't stop it. "
Kou Ji smiled bitterly: "They want to express their gratitude. There are many ways they can choose. There is no need to stop here and kowtow to me. You know, even if it is an official traveler, there are very few scenes of people kowtow together.
They did this not to repay me, but to force me to die. "
Li Daniu was taken aback for a moment, and said embarrassingly: "When the villain was in the ranks, he was in a humble position. He had never seen an official, and didn't know the rules of official travel..."
Kou Ji waved his hand, "You don't have to explain, I can understand... Go quickly and convey my words to the people, let them go back to rest first."
Li Daniu nodded solemnly, and went back to admonish the people.
After Li Daniu's persuasion, the people also realized the harm of Qi Qi's bow to Kou Ji.
Immediately, he complained to the stewards and led the folks to resign one after another.
Seeing the people on the street, led the people away.
Kou Ji let out a sigh of relief.
"It really is… "
"Awesome!"
Kou Jigang said three words with emotion.
I heard a joking voice, which sounded from behind.
Turning around and looking around, he saw Li Zhaoliang thrust his hands into his cuffs, appearing dangling behind him.
Beside Li Zhaoliang, he followed a series of songs.
Li Zhaoliang stared at Kou Ji, clicking his mouth like a smile.
Kou Ji said irritably: "Awesome shit..."
Li Zhaoliang smiled and said: "People from half of the city all salute you. Even officials may not receive the courtesy. How can you not be prestigious?"
Kou Ji raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly: "Then I will tell them to come back and salute you together."
Li Zhaoliang was taken aback, and hurriedly waved his hand, "Then I'm really not far from death. You are a civil servant, and you are a civil servant, and you can afford it. I am a military officer, but I can't bear this."
Kou Ji curled his lips and said, "If you don't go to the inn and rest, what will you do with me?"
Li Zhaoliang sighed: "I'm not used to dealing with those civilian officials, and I don't want to fight with them."
Kou Ji pondered for a moment, and said, "I'm not used to..."
Li Zhaoliang was taken aback, and laughed in a low voice: "The large table of delicacies they prepared was just wasted."
"You want to like it, you go eat it."
Kou Ji said.
Li Zhaoliang shook his head decisively.
Kou Ji pondered: "I'm going to live in Li Daniu's house tonight, how about you?"
Li Daniu, who had just accompanied the chief steward to disperse the people, was rushing to Kou Ji's side, and when he heard Kou Ji's words, he stood there in a daze.
Li Zhaoliang was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Go and go together..."
Kou Ji nodded, and ordered the men who followed him, saying: "Take my arrow to the camp where the defenders are stationed outside the city, and the scouts in the summoning army come to meet...
Take my arrow and go to Zhizhou Yamen, let Zhizhou Mu Zichuan, send all recent memorials about the Western Regions to me...
Take my arrow to the post and summon the scouts who are recovering in the post..."
Kou Ji gave three orders in one breath.
After each command was given, a man stepped up to the quiver, drew out a command arrow, and rode away.
Li Zhaoliang stared at the men who followed Kou Ji and said quietly, "These people behind you are extraordinary."
Kou Ji rolled his eyes and was too lazy to talk to Li Zhaoliang.
The first generation of guards is naturally unusual.
That was Chen Juntou, personally selected from the fierce pawns who had experienced the Song and Liao battlefields.
The guard that was trained in the later stage to help Di Qing raise his power outside the city of Bianjing can only be regarded as the second-generation guard.
They have experienced the temper of the Song and Liao battlefields, experienced the temper of many forces in the Western Regions, and are the elite of the elite.
The two hundred soldiers who came out of the big waves.
Everyone knows that the strongest in Baozhou is the Tiger Army, followed by the Baozhou Defenders and the Serbian Army.
Few people know.
The strongest in Baozhou is actually the guard patrol.
Li Zhaoliang saw that Kou Ji ignored himself and didn't ask himself to be bored. He told the trilogy behind him: "Go and see the two soldiers and horses of Zhenguo and Xingguo, where they have gone."
"Hey..."
The imperial court dispatched two imprisoned troops, Zhenguo and Xingguo, under Li Zhaoliang's command.
But Li Zhaoliang arrived in Xining City, but he did not see the leaders of the two imperial forces coming to report.
This shows that the two forbidden forces have not arrived yet.
Li Zhaoliang and Kou Ji chatted a lot along the way, but both of them remembered the purpose of their trip.
When it's time to make trouble, they will make trouble.
But when it came time to do business, they were not at all ambiguous.
After Kou Ji and Li Zhaoliang gave their orders.
Kou Ji approached Li Daniu and said with a smile, "How about I live at your house tonight?"
Li Daniu glanced at the people behind Kou Ji and the people behind Li Zhaoliang, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay..."
An upright and bold man, I don't know what rejection is.
Kou Ji, Li Zhaoliang, and Liu Heng, plus the people they brought, obviously exceeded the number of people that Li Daniu could live in, but he still bit the bullet and agreed.
Kou Ji guessed Li Daniu's thoughts through Li Daniu's expression.
He glanced at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man immediately understood, bowed his hand, and left the place first.
Kou Ji smiled and said to Li Daniu: "Let's go..."
Li Daniu nodded heavily and led Kou Ji and his party to where he lived.
The place where Li Daniu lives is simple, but the area is not small.
The area is comparable to the Kou Mansion in Bianjing City.
It's just in disrepair for a long time, and it looks a little shabby.
The walls made of loess have many collapses.
The wing rooms and main rooms in the yard leaked air everywhere, and some did not even have windows.
It didn't seem to be a place where people of prestige lived in Xining City.
