Chapter 907: County Suburbs Township Martial Hall Matters

"The opening ceremony is over, everyone, let's start the feast!" Captain Wang's deep and loud voice rang out.

The banquet is about to begin.

I heard that what they had today was a whole bowl of braised pork and two big steamed buns, which was exactly the same as what Duke Yan and his friends had eaten when the first Xiangwu Hall opened.

The students were very excited but scared of being beaten. They remembered the order and went to receive meals in batches holding up signs, led by leaders elected by each town.

The first group to receive meals were not from the town, but from the children of students in the county.

The chief student is the nephew of clan leader Han, Han Shirong, who is seventeen years old, tall and strong, with natural strength.

Because of his great strength, Master Han asked Zhou Bantou to help teach him martial arts. He is considered the most capable fighter among the younger generation of the Han family.

Originally, a marriage was supposed to be arranged for him, but when he heard that the local martial arts hall was going to be built, he refused to agree to the marriage and wanted to enter the local martial arts hall. If he was not allowed in, he would run to Tianmang Mansion.

If his family doesn't issue him a travel permit, he will become a refugee!

Good guy, he was almost beaten to death by his family because of these words.

After the fight, my family compromised.

After all, he was already ten years old, and the family really didn't need a son like him, so they just let him go... It was because the Han family had an ancestral precept that 90% of the sons were kept to maintain the family business, and 10% were released to find new sons.

Han Shirong held up a wooden sign with his back straight. As soon as he appeared on stage, he was taller than 99% of the people in the audience.

This physique alone is enough to shock many people.

There were students from the county who were dissatisfied with him becoming the leader, but now they are convinced by his physique.

What can I do if I don’t accept it?

Am I really going to get punched by this big guy?

Wouldn’t that be a waste?

It’s better to admit defeat earlier so that you can avoid being beaten.

"Report, Han Shirong is leading the county students, please come and get meals!" Han Shirong's voice was like beating a drum, and everyone in the audience was excited.

Captain Zhong said with a smile: "This boy is suitable to be a messenger. His voice is piercing."

Jiang Dalang thought, "With a physique like this, he can be a heavy armor soldier and achieve better results in battle."

Captain Zhong was shocked when he heard this. He said, "Boy, you, who have never fought in a real battle, are even more cruel than me. You treat the students of the local martial arts hall as real soldiers."

but……

"You are right. Han Shirong is indeed more suitable to be a heavy armor soldier."

I’m afraid the Han family won’t be willing to do so.

"Report, Lu Sanwen leads the students from Taifeng Town to get meals!" Master Lu San shouted, holding a sign, and behind him were the students from Taifeng Town of different sizes and heights.

To be honest, many people look at him with awe at his age.

Mr. Lu Sanye is old enough to be Niu Zaoyang's father, but he still successfully registered.

There was no other reason, it was because the government army was afraid that the people of Dongmo would attack by the end of this year, so the village martial arts hall, in addition to recruiting young men of the right age like Han Shirong, also had to recruit half-grown children like Niu Zaoyang and Kong Sanshuang, and at least 20% of adults.

Nowadays, the admission age of students in the rural martial arts hall is 40% young people, 30% teenagers, and 30% middle-aged people.

Mr. Lu Sanye is the representative of the middle-aged students.

Mr. Lu Sanye had been to the capital, met the Duke of Yan, was also good at martial arts, and had managed the Lu family's patrol team in Taifeng Town. Therefore, he had great prestige and was already a recognized leader among the students.

However, he did not stay at the Wu family's house last night, otherwise Kong Shengwu and the others would not have dared to act so recklessly.

There were nearly two thousand students, but because the rural martial arts hall was governed by military regulations, they only needed fifteen minutes to receive their meals.

This is to train their speed.

The gentlemen who donate money don’t have to go out to get food, someone will serve it to them.

But they also sat directly on the training ground, ate, and finished all the food just like the other students.

When the first Xiangwu Hall opened, Duke Yan sat on the ground and ate with the students. What were these local rich people? How dare they not do the same?

Boom boom boom!

At noon, the drums sounded, and the students stood up and looked up at the platform.

Jiang Dalang said, "After the banquet, take your badges and go get your supplies. At 1:00 p.m., gather at the training ground and start learning the military fighting techniques!"

"Yes!" All the students responded with deafening voices, making the masters feel more secure.

Qi Tianshi, Captain Wang, and County Magistrate Kang did not stay long and stood up to leave.

Qi Tianshi is His Majesty's angel. In order to maintain his mystery and deterrence, he usually does not stay in crowded places for too long.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Wen Tao called Fourth Master Qu and the Third Village Chief to go and pay respect to Tian Shi Qi together: "Wen Tao, meet Tian Shi Qi. Tian Shi Qi is going back to the county? I wonder if I would be lucky enough to go with him?"

Angel Qi smiled, the ends of his narrow eyes turned up because of his smile, his eyes were sharp, piercing Wen Tao, and he said in a very recognizable voice, "Wei Lu, without an imperial decree, no one may contact angels in private. Those who violate this will be thoroughly investigated by the entire clan."

Mr. Wen Tao felt a chill all over his body and almost knelt down in public. After calming himself down, he hurriedly said, "Tian Tian Qi, please calm down. I just came here to ask you because I was going back to my villa in the county town and thought it would be on the way."

"It is my fault, please forgive me, Angel Qi."

Fourth Master Qu: "..."

I give in. Wen Tao always does things that embarrass himself.

Qi Tianshi looked down at Wen Tao, whose old waist was almost bent to the ground. After a while, he just said, "Mr. Wen Tao, you should read Wei's law again."

After saying this, he ignored Wen Tao and left under the escort of Captain Wang.

Mr. Wen Tao didn't dare to get up until Tian Shi Qi disappeared... It was already the first day of September, but he was sweating all over and was filled with deep regret.

Hate again!

A eunuch, just a castrated man, dared to ignore him. He was born into a noble family and was one of the supervisors recognized by the Duke of Yan.

Haha, it's so funny. Not only should you reread Wei Lu, you should also relearn all the common sense.

What is an angel?

It is the majesty of the emperor.

As a child of an aristocratic family who has never entered officialdom, what qualifications do you have to establish a personal relationship with Qi Tianshi?

Are you tired of having a personal relationship with His Majesty's angels?

Even County Magistrate Kang thought he was stupid.

But is Wen Tao stupid?

Maybe he is a little stupid, but he is more arrogant, with the arrogance given to him by his aristocratic family.

Like Mr. Jin Qi, he felt that although they were from aristocratic families in the border areas, they were the local tyrants here.

And Qi Tianshi was just a eunuch, and they tried to make friends with him out of giving him face.

This mentality is exactly the same as that of Kong Lichang and others.

The imperial court’s helplessness towards the aristocratic and powerful families is just like the county government’s helplessness towards the large clans in the countryside.

After seeing Mr. Wen Tao's joke, County Magistrate Kang asked Captain Zhong to tell the guests: "Students and gentlemen can stay and watch the students practice martial arts, and leave before the evening hour!"

Captain Zhong's messenger shouted this several times. After hearing it, the guests were very happy and decided to stay and see what happened.

Accompanied by soldiers, they went to see the students receiving supplies and also visited the students' dormitories.

A little over a quarter before the hour of Wei, Xu Lianmu and his men rang the gongs, clang clang clang, and shouted, "Everyone from Fuliu Town, hurry to the front martial arts training ground to assemble. Don't be late, or else you'll be severely beaten by Jiang. No, Instructor Jiang will be mad!"

If Jiang Duda gets angry, he will beat us to death.

The students from Fuliu Town shuddered all over, hurriedly piled the supplies they had received on their bedding, and ran away.
