"Then I can't teach you. I don't know swordsmanship."
Zhu Gaoxu asked again: "Are you really not considering practicing halberd?"
Just as Li Xiao was about to speak, a voice suddenly came from the distance.
"I know swordsmanship, and I will teach my brother-in-law."
It was Zhu Gaosui who came over, smiling.
Except for the eldest of Zhu Di's three sons, the other two have been practicing martial arts since childhood.
"That's okay, please ask Gao Sui to teach me." Li Xiao said with a smile.
Zhu Gaoxu frowned and cursed in his heart, Third Brother, are you here to steal my luck?
Who doesn't know that being around Li Xiao can bring good luck?
It seems that his father has often praised himself and rewarded himself recently, and this boy is greedy...
However, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't say much.
After all, he is his little brother.
Zhu Gaosui was very proud. He took two swords from the weapons rack and signaled Li Xiao to take the swords as well. He was going to start teaching.
"Why are you holding two swords?" Li Xiao asked curiously.
Zhu Gaosui said: "My sword technique is called Junzi Sword, and it uses two swords."
"Gentleman's Sword?"
"Yes." Zhu Gaosui nodded: "The gentleman's swordsmanship came from Liu Bei, it is really powerful."
"..."
It turned out to be the swordsmanship passed down from brother Xuande, but Li Xiao didn't like to use double swords.
"Double swords... I'm not good at martial arts, so I'd better start practicing with one sword first."
"also."
That's it.
There are three people in the martial arts arena, two are dancing swords and one is wielding a halberd.
The sound of humming and haha is endless.
After a while, Zhu Di passed by the house and was very pleased to see this scene.
In the past, Zhu Di also tried morning exercises, three-nine exercises in winter, and three-day exercises in summer.
But now that I am busy with work, I have gradually neglected it.
"Li Xiao gets along very well with his family."
Zhu Di thought to himself: "Both Gao Xu and Gao Sui will become good players on the battlefield in the future...Although Li Xiao learned late, he has great talent. Doesn't this mean that the king has another capable general?....No, madam. I have strictly prohibited Li Xiao from going to the battlefield, so let’s give it up..."
Zhu Di secretly thought it was a pity and walked away.
...
In the attic of Yongan.
Zhu Ningyun's eyes always stayed on Li Xiao.
So handsome...
As Li Xiao thought, Zhu Ningyun really liked men who used swords.
The sword is elegant, agile...handsome!
Give women a kind of unlimited imagination.
With the blessing of poetry, it becomes even more charming.
Cast into stars and generate flames, turn into dragons and snakes that will bend and bend.
A sword in Fengcheng can be read for thousands of years, and the cold light shoots at bullfighting.
Who has a sword in the northwest when the air is cold? The sound of flutes fills the southeast.
These poems are all about swords, sword fighting to the end of the world...how romantic...
Women of every era are the same.
In later generations, on the basketball courts in schools, boys playing basketball would be more attractive to girls than men lying on their backs reading with glasses on.
Of course, although Li Xiao is still a little clumsy in wielding the sword.
But beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and whatever Li Xiao does now, Zhu Ningyun thinks it looks good.
Moreover, she was thinking... With Li Xiao's talent, it wouldn't take long for him to be able to make a good sword, right?
"Princess, do you look good?"
"So handsome...Xiao Cui, you've been beaten again..."
...
...
Morning exercise ends in an hour.
The three of them left the house together.
Outside the mansion, Li Xiongzhi had been waiting for a long time.
However, he could not ride a horse yet. After some discussion, Zhu Gaoxu asked Zhu Gaosui to take Li Xiongzhi with him on horseback.
Although Zhu Gaosui was reluctant in his heart, he didn't dare not listen to his second brother's words.
What if the second brother doesn't play with me anymore?
That's it.
By the time the four of them arrived at the mine, it was already overcrowded.
There was a huge crowd, almost a hundred people surrounding it.
They are all young people from Dadong Village.
Last night, the head of the village that Li Xiao told him about ran away one by one, and the whole village came.
When everyone learned about such a good thing, they ran over early in the morning.
What's more, they wait here before dawn.
However, after waiting for a long time, no one was seen, and the crowd was a little commotion.
"I said, Lao Chen, you are not fooling us, are you? Where are the customers?"
"Yeah, where are the customers? It's almost noon, and I haven't seen anyone coming."
"Old Chen, you are not being honest. We are from the same village and we don't want to lie to others."
The villagers who couldn't wait for anyone started to criticize the head of the village named Chen.
Chen Lichang was also sweating profusely.
If he was let go, then he really couldn't explain it.
He was too anxious to speak and looked around.
suddenly,
I saw several people dismounting from their horses in the distance, walking in this direction.
He seemed to see his savior and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Here we come, the customer is here."
The words fell,
The villagers looked in the direction that Old Chen pointed.
Afterwards, the crowd surged towards Li Xiao and others like a tide.
"Stop, stop, everyone, keep your distance!"
There was no need for Li Xiao to say anything. Zhu Gaoxu roared loudly and the crowd stopped immediately.
Even though Zhu Gaoxu is only sixteen years old, he is tall and burly.
He already had a beautiful beard and a stern expression, and these common people did not dare to approach him.
It is Zhu Gaoxu who plays the bad part, and Li Xiao is responsible for playing the bad part.
He walked out with a smile and said loudly:
"Dear folks, I have kept you waiting for a long time. What Chen Li-chang said is true."
"Thank you all for your support and welcome you to join the work in the salt field."
"The daily wage here is 70 yuan, including lunch."
"The first batch of recruitment will only require fifty people, and those who are young and strong will be given priority."
"We don't want short-term workers, but we want long-term workers. We will look at them one by one and select them."
"Now, I would like to ask everyone to line up in a first-come, first-served order."
"Let's do it one by one."
The words fell.
The common people all showed joy.
it is true!
It actually costs 70 yuan a day. If you work for a long time, it also includes a meal, which is great.
The people dug in the soil for food and paid taxes, but there was not much left over at the end of the year.
With this job, my life can be greatly improved and I can eat more meat and fish every day.
"Sir, these are my two sons. Can you see if you can..."
Chen Lizhang brought his two sons over.
Obviously he wanted to open the back door. After all, the number of people was limited, and there were more than a hundred people present.
"You did a good job at this."
Li Xiao waved his hand and said: "These are people from your village. Go and maintain order and let them line up."
"Yes Yes."
Chief Chen understood the meaning immediately, turned around and put his two sons in the front two, then pointed to an open space and shouted to the villagers:
"Okay, folks, come here and line up."
Li Xiongzhi knew it was his turn to make a difference.
Li Xiao didn't need to explain, he immediately stood at the front, waved and shouted:
"Come here and line up vertically. You are not allowed to jump in line. Jumping in line will directly disqualify you!"
Someone is organizing.
soon.
There were more than a hundred people, and they lined up the team honestly.
After leading the team to line up, Li Xiao began to act as an interviewer and select people.
"How old?"
"Twenty-five, you have enough strength to withstand a stone of rice."
"Can I do it long-term?"
"Yes, I have six brothers. There are too many people and the fields are not enough for farming."
"Okay, it's up to you, go and stand over there."
"Thank you patron."
...
An hour later.
The selection of workers has come to an end.
It seems that there are only five or six places left.
The people behind started to commotion...
