    The two walked along the official road for more than half a mile. Chang Jin saw a tea stall under a big mulberry tree on the roadside not far away and said, "We are not far from the county seat. How about we go over and take a rest?"  That's fine." Bai Susu nodded in agreement.  This tea stall is ten miles away from the county seat. The distance is just right. Most business travelers traveling to and from the county seat will stop here to rest and recharge before heading into the city.  It¡¯s just that Qutang County has just been recaptured by officers and soldiers, and there are very few business trips nearby. Although the tea stall is located on a traffic thoroughfare, business is somewhat deserted, with only three or five people sitting on the roadside drinking tea.  Seeing them stop, the landlady immediately came over and said enthusiastically: "You two gentlemen, do you want to drink tea? Please take a seat quickly. The shop has good Maofeng tea and home-made sweet cakes, which are very delicious.  " As she said that, she wiped the tables and chairs neatly with a rag.  "Then let's have a pot of Maofeng and a plate of sweet cakes." Seeing this man's quick hands and feet, Chang Jin had a good impression in his heart.  ¡°Okay,¡± the landlady responded and shouted to the store.  Soon someone came over with a teapot. Looking at the color of the tea, Chang Jin knew that the so-called "fine Maofeng" mentioned by the proprietress was average. Thinking about it, if it was really a good Maofeng, what would happen to this small tea shop?  There will be people who can afford it.  "But neither he nor Bai Susu are particular people, and they are not picky.  As soon as I picked up the teacup, I heard a man at the next table shout loudly: "Have you heard that the gang of thieves in Bali Mountain were wiped out by the officers and soldiers?" As soon as he said this, someone immediately asked: "Thank you Shitou,  Why didn't I hear about what happened? " "Just two days ago, General Zhu led his troops to annihilate them. I heard from a cousin of mine that General Zhu took the lead in attacking the stronghold, and the thieves cried.  My father called my mother, and I didn't even resist for a moment, but he was killed by General Zhu. "Well done, General Zhu!" You Xianhan shouted.  "Of course," Xie Shitou continued, "Since General Zhu led his troops to station in Qutang County after the New Year, the area has become much safer than before. All the bandits, big and small, have fled elsewhere and do not dare to attack Qutang County at all.  "Wait." "General Zhu is indeed a good officer. Now his officers and soldiers also give money when they buy things. I heard that some of them were deadbeats at restaurants and were found by the shopkeepers in the barracks. When General Zhu learned about this, he ordered them to be arrested.  Several officers and soldiers were hung up and beaten, and they were beaten with thirty whips" "If General Zhu can stay in Qutang County, we will have many ways to survive." "By the way, Xie Shitou, I heard your cousin say that Zhu  What does the general look like and is he married?" someone asked.  "Of course I know this. General Zhu's name is Zhu Yuanhao. He is eight feet tall, has eyes like copper bells, is as strong as an iron tower, is extremely strong, and can tear apart tigers and leopards with his hands" He was so careless that he had obviously never seen him before.  , just listening to people talk about storytelling.  ¡­ ¡­ Hearing someone describe Zhu Yuanhao in such an exaggerated way, Chang Jin couldn¡¯t help but smile.  "Yunsheng, do you think highly of this person?" Bai Susu heard her husband talk about the fight for the dragon and couldn't help but send out a spiritual inquiry.  "Yeah." Chang Jin also communicated with his spiritual consciousness: "Zhu Yuanhao led the troops and stationed in Qutang County for more than a month, but he has already made the people under his rule return to their hearts and spread his reputation. This alone is very human." "This man is indeed leading troops to attack.  He has some skills, but if you want to make a difference in troubled times, you can't just rely on bravery. You must have the means to govern the situation and calm the people. As you said, Zhu Yuanhao is just a martial artist, and I am afraid he is not good at civil governance.  Having met Zhu Yuanhao in person, I naturally don¡¯t think highly of him.  A few days ago, her husband told her his plan. After hearing this, Bai Susu felt a little worried, so there was a hint of advice in his words.  The Dragon in the secular world regards humanity as the overall situation. If you are not careful, even the gods may be counterattacked and their souls will be scattered. She does not want her husband to join in.  But knowing her husband¡¯s temperament, she could only persuade him tactfully from the side.  "Yes, this is also Zhu Yuanhao's shortcoming." Chang Jin nodded slightly.  Regardless of whether it is the earth in the previous life or this world, the founding emperor must know both civil and martial arts.  If you only know how to conquer and don¡¯t know how to manage, you will never be able to achieve great things in the end.  People like Li Zicheng, Hong Xiuquan and others in the previous life on Earth, although they conquered a large territory and created a new dynasty, they could not escape defeat in the end.  So far, Zhu Yuanhao has not shown any talent in literary governance.  Chang Jin's trip this time was not just for traveling, but also to see if the other person was really worthy of his help.  As soon as he had something in mind, he suddenly raised his head again and looked towards the direction of the county seat.  I saw a few fast horses galloping towards the end of the official road two miles away.  The man at the head was tall and riding a bay-red horse. Although he was wearing aHe was convinced, but a sense of momentum arose spontaneously in his movements.  Behind him, several men in regular clothes followed closely on horseback.  "Cao Cao was about to arrive," Chang Jin glanced at him and said with consciousness, "The leader is Zhu Yuanhao" Several horses were moving very fast, and they were already approaching in the blink of an eye.  But after more than a month, Zhu Yuanhao¡¯s luck changed again.  The green air above the head rises all over the sky, forming a big flag, rising up, even three points better than before.  Chang Jin had seen several people behind him, three of them were old friends, and two of them had gone to En Gong Temple last year.  It is true that "those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black". Zhu Yuanhao's own changes in luck have affected these followers.  He clearly remembered how many people he saw when he first met, and their luck was not much different from that of ordinary people.  Looking at it now, it's quite different.  Most of these people's heads are filled with red energy that condenses but never disperses.  There are even two people who are already half cyan.  If a person achieves the Tao and a chicken or a dog ascends to heaven, if his expectations are correct, when Zhu Yuanhao takes another step forward, these people will rise.  If Zhu Yuanhao can really create a new dynasty, these companions can become the founding heroes even if they don't die.  ¡°Similar examples abound on the earth. For example, during the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Bei, the founding emperor of the Shu Kingdom, made a living at home by weaving mats and selling shoes when he was young, and his life was very difficult.  At that time, Jian Yong, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others were following him.  Liu Bei then raised troops to suppress the Yellow Turban Army, and these few people also refused to leave.  When Liu Bei became an emperor, Guan Yu was granted the title of Marquis of Shouting of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Fei was granted the title of Marquis of Xixiang, and Jian Yong was granted the title of General Zhaode.  At this time, a soldier behind him saw the tea stall and couldn't help shouting: "Brother Zhu, there is a tea stall here. How about we take a rest and drink a few sips of tea before we continue on our way. What we ate in the morning was too salty. Now  There's smoke coming out of my throat." "You have a lot to do," Zhu Yuanhao replied, reining in the horse's reins and dismounting, "Just rest for a while." As he spoke, he glanced at the tea stall, because both Chang Jin and Bai Susu had changed their appearance.  Suddenly he looked no different from ordinary people, so Zhu Yuanhao only turned his head and looked away when he dismounted.  Seeing a few people dismounting, the landlady hesitantly stepped forward to greet them, with a forced smile on her face: "Sir, do you want to drink tea?" She often does the business of welcoming and sending off people, so the landlady naturally has a good taste.  Nowadays, people who can ride horses are either rich or noble, and they cannot afford to offend them at all.  What's more, the people in front of me are fierce-looking and obviously not good people.  He was afraid of accidentally offending the other party and overturning his tea stall.  The few idle men who were talking loudly just now were also silent at the moment, drinking tea with their heads down, not daring to take another look.  Little did they know that the other party was the General Zhu they called him.  Zhu Yuanhao saw this situation in his eyes and said with a smile: "Don't worry, madam, we are not bad people. We will just have a cup of tea and leave. Your tea money will not be missing" "Yes, yes, gentlemen, please sit down."  The landlady responded and hurriedly wiped the tables and chairs.  Zhu Yuanhao was in the middle, and the remaining sergeants sat down one after another.  When the landlady brought over a pot of tea, the sergeant named Zhou Laosan took it quickly, poured a cup for Zhu Yuanhao first, then filled the cup in front of him, and drank heavily.  After drinking all the tea in one breath, he shouted: "Shuang" and then said: "Brother Zhu, I don't understand. Those scholars can't carry their shoulders or pick them, and they don't even dare to kill a chicken. What's the use of recruiting them?"  "Zhou Laosan, you are talking nonsense again. I have already inquired and found out that those scholars are all very talented, and one of them was once the head of the Xiajiang Prefecture. Last year, Li Yingxiang rebelled, and they have been stranded in Fucheng, waiting for the officers and soldiers to recover.  We are all rough people, and we spend a lot of money and food every day in the army. In addition, we need to find someone to calculate the paperworkif we can get their help.  We can naturally free up our hands to train our troops!" "We really need to recruit a few scholars, otherwise I will have a headache from doing the accounting every day," another sergeant next to me said.  "Then there's no need to go there in person. Brother wants to value those scholars, so he can just send someone to find them. Why go all the way to invite them?" "We can only show our sincerity by visiting in person." Zhu Yuanhao explained and paused.  He ordered, "When you get to the place later, you must not be rude or offend the other party." "Don't worry, I won't ruin big brother's good deeds." Zhou Laosan agreed wholeheartedly.  Invite a few scholars who can settle accounts, and of course there is no need for Zhu Yuanhao to go there himself.  However, he had other plans in mind, and it was just not convenient for him to explain it to his brothers for the time being.  In the past, Zhu Yuanhao was on duty in Lianghou Mansion. After he came out, he was just a camp official. He was in charge of dozens of people, so his vision was naturally narrow.  When he killed Zhao Dahu, he was appointed as a guard general by the Marquis of Liang, and even won the title of LiuThe handsome man trusted him as his son-in-law.  Zhu Yuanhao's mind gradually became bigger.  He could see clearly that Marquis Liang should have great ambitions. As long as he stayed by his side, he would have many opportunities to make meritorious deeds in the future.  If you can catch it, becoming a successful person is not a dream.  If you want to achieve your goals, you need to find someone to discuss and plan.  My brothers are brave in fighting, but they have never read a book, have no brains, and cannot come up with any ideas when encountering problems.  Those scholars have a reputation for being virtuous. If we can get their help, whatever happens in the future will be better than trying to catch someone blind all by yourself.  It was with this in mind that he decided to pay a visit to show his sincerity. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????A few people drank tea just to quench their thirst, so quickly, two plates of sweet cakes and a large pot of tea were all gone.  Seeing that it was getting late, Zhu Yuanhao did not delay and reached out to the boss's wife to pay the bill.  Watching several people leave on horseback, Chang Jin also took out a piece of silver and said: "Lady boss, pay the bill!"
