Chapter 172 Four-piece Security Suit
News came out from the court that in order to solve the problem of the two books, His Majesty has sent Shusun Tong, who had previously banned the two books, to solve it. His Majesty also hinted that if Shusun Tong does not handle it well, the consequences will be serious.
This can be a reassurance to the students.
Since it was the second book banned by Shusun Tong, he would definitely be able to solve it if he intervened. Of course, Shusun Tong did not dare to neglect it. The consequences would be serious. The message revealed by these words was obvious.
If he dares to fool the emperor, he will face death.
When Shusun Tong heard the news, his heart dropped to pieces. This was because His Majesty was extremely dissatisfied with him.
If he can't get Li Zhao to release Ershu again, he will die an ugly death and even bring trouble to his uncle's family.
"Master, you have heard the rumors! His Majesty obviously wants you to die. Are you just waiting for death? Of course, you can try to go to Chang'an Township, but you should also expect the result. If you ban other people's books,
It’s strange that someone would agree to open the second book.”
Dongzi appeared quietly, like a ghost, startling Shusun Tong.
"You? Who asked you to come in? Get out of here." Shusuntong was in a very bad mood, and it was even worse under the influence of this incident.
Dongzi was not angry, but smiled obediently and went out, but he left a few words behind.
"Sir, this matter is actually easy to solve. As long as you stand with General Jia, he will help you."
"Get out, get out!"
Shusun Tong picked up the case and put it on the inkstone and threw it away. He was very angry.
Chang'an Township.
The housekeeper brought back more than twenty people, all of them strong and must have been carefully selected.
After the students attacked Chang'an Township, Li Zhao asked the housekeeper to find some strong men to come back, who he wanted to train as his own bodyguards.
At present, the imperial court still allows the powerful to have some personal guards, but not too many. Li Zhao originally wanted to search for them in the military camp, but there were only so many people in the military camp. It was a secret weapon designated by the emperor and would not be easily exposed to others, so he gave up this idea and let
The housekeeper goes to find it.
In order not to attract the emperor's attention, he only found a few dozen people.
Twenty-odd people are not a lot. If there is no big event, it is enough to protect Chang'an Township. But if there was an attack by the students that day, twenty-odd people would seem to be stretched thin. He has no choice. Could it be that he recruits hundreds of people?
Thousands of people, this is impossible and will definitely arouse His Majesty's suspicion.
Qin Shihuang in history was a very suspicious person.
He was different from others in that he possessed a powerful weapon. Everyone knew this. Although the emperor did not say anything about it, he did not ask him about the whereabouts of the weapon, nor did he ask him to hand it over.
This is the emperor's trust in him, but it does not mean that the emperor will not be suspicious of him.
But if he recruits too many personal guards, it's not certain whether the Emperor will keep an eye on him. It's better to be careful as a person, and be careful when sailing a ship that lasts forever.
This is a headache.
"Master, these are all slaves bought from the tooth shop. The slaves have been screened and their family background is absolutely clean."
The butler introduced these people.
Li Zhao glanced at him and felt satisfied, so he nodded. But the next moment his mind moved and he asked quickly: "Are you saying that these people were all bought from the tooth shop and they are all slaves?"
There were many slaves in the Qin Dynasty, so there were some businesses that bought and sold slaves, called Yaxing. In Yaxing, the price of slaves was clearly marked, and you could buy good slaves according to the price.
"Yes, I will never lie to you." The housekeeper didn't know why the young master had such a strong reaction, so he told the truth.
"Slavery? Okay! Why didn't I think of that?" Li Zhao seemed to have thought of something and raised his eyebrows.
Nowadays, all the high-ranking officials and nobles in the Qin Dynasty have slaves in their houses, some may be in the thousands or even dozens, and this is allowed by the imperial court.
Li Zhao's mind became active. If he bought more slaves, say hundreds or even hundreds, let these people train secretly, and gave them some secret weapons, why should he be afraid of being bullied by some people? Then Chang'an Township would have
Are you strong enough to face threats?
This is a good discovery.
Although Li Zhao was pleasantly surprised, the housekeeper was confused. What didn't the young master think of? Didn't he think that slaves could be bought and sold in the tooth shop? This is something everyone knows, so the young master was a little strange.
But he did not ask, but pointed to the slaves, "Master, how do they arrange it?"
These words broke Li Zhao's contemplation, and he quickly waved his hand and warned: "Ignore them for now. Go buy another three hundred slaves immediately. If you don't have enough money, you can find your uncle."
The housekeeper once again wondered, more than twenty slaves were enough to protect Chang'an Township, and the price of slaves was not low. How much gold was spent in the twenty-somethings, and if he bought another three hundred, it would be a big sum, which would be very important to the current Chang'an Township.
It's a burden.
After all, the young master spent most of his family's wealth some time ago, opened a medicine shop, and paid farmers. Everything requires money, but the income of Chang'an Township has not increased.
Paper is the most profitable business in Chang'an Township, but recently, for some reason, sales have dropped significantly. Needless to say, Ershu has been banned, with no income at all, and rice is still in the expenditure stage.
Fertilizer is a little better. With orders from Gaofu, I can earn a little bit, but it's just a drop in the bucket.
"Master, we have money and silk in our house. I'm afraid of him."
The housekeeper frowned, not knowing what to say to the young master, but Li Zhao understood.
He waved his hand casually, as if he didn't care, "It's just money and silk. I'll have it soon."
The housekeeper still frowned. He couldn't think of any other way to increase the money in Chang'an Township.
"You don't believe it?" Li Zhao saw the butler's thoughts.
"It's not that I doubt the young master. It's actually that our property is just a little bit. I know how much we can have."
Li Zhao smiled and said nothing.
The housekeeper had no choice but to bite the bullet and go find the master.
Li Zhao ignored the housekeeper and faced the twenty or so strong men.
The strong men were so awed that they knelt down and said hello in unison: "I have seen the young master!"
"Yes!" Li Zhao nodded with a smile on his face. He was very satisfied with the performance of these slaves and raised his hand, "Everyone, get up! I don't have to kneel down when I see the young master in the future. There are not so many rules in Chang'an Township."
"Thank you, Master." The slaves all stood up, showing a hint of surprise at Li Zhao's words. You must know that all masters like slaves to be respectful to them. Kneeling is an attitude and shows their status. This young master is an exception. He told them not to
Kneeling, he seems to be a good master.
Li Zhao didn't know what they were thinking, so he asked one after another: "What did you do before?"
"Master, this slave is a farmer."
"The slave is a carpenter."
"."
The slaves introduced themselves one after another, but these introductions made Li Zhao very dissatisfied. What he needed were personal guards and enemies, not work.
Shaking his head, he turned his attention to the last person. Everyone else introduced themselves, but he stood there with a solemn face and said nothing, as if he was indifferent to everything.
Li Zhao felt strange, so he pointed at him and asked, "What's your name?"
The strong man's expression remained unchanged, with a hint of indifference in his eyes, and he said calmly: "My slave's name is Wu Quan."
"Wu Quan?" Li Zhao was a little surprised by this name. Wu Quan means no fists. This is incompatible with personal guards! How can Wu Quan protect his master?
"What did you do before?"
"He was a soldier of Xianyang."
"Xianyang soldier?" Li Zhao laughed. His name was "Wu Quan", but he was a soldier. It was a contradiction. But he didn't care about this. Since he was a soldier, he must have been on the battlefield. He needed such a person.
But Li Zhao didn't intend to ask about his origins.
It stands to reason that those who can become soldiers in Xianyang must have some ability. You must know that there are currently millions of Qin soldiers, most of whom are guarding the border. Only 200,000 can stay in Xianyang, but they are all elites.
To be able to become a Xianyang soldier, this person must be an elite. As an elite, how can he become a slave?
Li Zhao was a little puzzled, but he didn't care. Since the housekeeper said that these people had innocent family backgrounds, they must not be evil people.
It's good if he's not a bad person.
"Very good! Since you are a soldier, you will be the commander of our Chang'an Township personal guard from now on. I will leave the training and defense to you. I hope you can defend our Chang'an Township and never allow anyone to bully Chang'an Township."
Wu Quan listened and could not tell whether he was happy or sad. He accepted the order with his hands raised and said, "Promise!" without any unnecessary words.
Li Zhao smiled and secretly thought that this man really had a character, but he didn't know what his abilities were and how he could do it. He would consider handing over the three hundred slaves he was about to buy to his command in the future.
"Wuquan, you must be familiar with the training methods in the army! But you can't train them according to the army's methods. I will give you new training methods and train them as soon as possible. As for the weapons, I will get them for you as soon as possible.
Some long swords."
Da Qin has very strict control over weapons, and weapons with high lethality are not allowed to exist.
Although Li Zhao had good weapons, he did not dare to give them to them. This was also to prevent the emperor from being jealous, so he could only settle for the next best thing and get some Qin swords.
Of course, it was impossible to deal with some gangsters with just 20 people holding Qin swords. He also needed to get some good things.
In his previous life, some commonly used equipment for security guards were eight-piece security sets, rubber sticks, tear gas sprayers, anti-stab vests, anti-cut gloves, etc. He planned to go to the system department store to see if they had any. If so, he wouldn't mind buying some and giving them to him.
These are used for slavery.
