Chapter 458 Let the people admire you, like having a tiger in your heart and sniffing the roses.

"Grass people, grass people kowtow to you!"

This man must have been peeking for a long time. When he saw Yang Zhengshan coming, he knelt down nervously and bowed.

Yang Zhengshan stepped forward and helped him up.

"No need!"

Being supported by him, the man was stunned for a moment, and then became even more nervous and at a loss.

"Wang Laosan, please invite the Marquis in first!"

At this time, Xiong Hu calmed down and reminded.

"Ah, please, please!" Wang Laosan stammered.

Yang Zhengshan then walked into the house.

Three adobe houses, with the main room in the middle and bedrooms on both sides, are the most common layout in Liaodong.

The low-rise house was a little dark, but still warm.

Yang Zhengshan looked at it casually. Well, there was actually nothing to buy in large quantities. There was not even a bench in the room, only a stone.

"Forgive me, Lord Marquis, but there is no place to do it here." Xiong Hu said cautiously.

"Um!"

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly and looked at the clothes on the man and the child.

The clothes are not thick, but they are new.

After that, he turned around and walked out of the main room without saying anything to Xiong Hu and Wang Laosan, and then walked into the kitchen.

The kitchen room is between the main house and the west wing. There is an earthen stove in it. There are sparks under the earthen stove, which obviously means that the kang has just been burned.

There is no place to cut firewood near this village, but you can cut hay.

Just take a sickle to any place outside the village and cut a large bale of hay.

Yang Zhengshan saw no food in the kitchen and asked, "Where is your food?"

Wang Laosan hurriedly ran into the main house and took out half a bag of grain.

Yang Zhengshan opened it, pinched a few grains of brown rice and put it in his mouth.

It's good rice, no sand, no mold.

"That's all?"

"There is another bag in the house!" Wang Laosan said in a low voice.

Yang Zhengshan nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, put it away!"

Later, Yang Zhengshan visited several more houses. His identity was too noble for these people. Even if he did not reveal his identity, he still made these people feel scared.

Therefore, he did not communicate with these people to show his affinity, but only checked the situation in the villagers' homes.

The conditions were a bit tough, but fortunately he didn't find any big problems.

The houses are airtight, and the villagers have clothing, food, and fires to keep warm.

This is the maximum that Chongshan Town can do.

No matter how much, there is nothing Yang Zhengshan can do!

After he checked five or six houses, a group of people came galloping on horseback from outside the village.

"Zhang Ye, a thousand households from the left side of Jinghu Fort, pays homage to the Marquis!"

Jinghu Fort is under the jurisdiction of the Jianning Guards General Shogunate. It has a garrison office, five thousand-household offices, and a thousand-man garrison camp.

The villages in this area are all under the jurisdiction of Jinghu Fort.

"Now that you're here, let's go for a walk with me!"

Yang Zhengshan didn't blame them for coming here. The main reason was that he didn't find any problems here, which showed that Zhang Ye was still very serious about his work.

"Here!" Zhang Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the wind and snow gradually subsided, Yang Zhengshan mounted his horse and walked slowly towards the next village.

"What's the situation like here?"

he asked as they walked.

"It can still be maintained, but many people have caught wind and cold. Although the official hired doctors for them, they were unable to get treatment due to lack of medicinal materials." Zhang Ye said.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly. The shortage of medicinal materials was a problem faced by the entire Chongshan Town.

Especially now that it is the coldest winter, he can no longer use the nine-grass formula to nourish his body, and the common people have lost a way to nourish their bodies.

The Nine Grass Health Recipe refers to the weeds in the Lingquan space. There is naturally no shortage of weeds in the Lingquan space, but the problem is that in this winter, he really can't explain the origin of those weeds.

"The General Military Mansion has no medicinal materials, so they have to rely on themselves to survive this time!" Yang Zhengshan said helplessly.

Zhang Ye looked at the helplessness on Yang Zhengshan's face, and his eyes suddenly became more respectful.

"The Marquis has done enough for the people. The people all remember the Marquis' kindness in their hearts!"

He's not flattering, he's telling the truth.

Needless to say, the people and military households in Chongshan Town were originally grateful to Chongshan Town for the 800,000 refugees.

The changes Yang Zhengshan brought to Chongshan Town were not limited to the people affected by the disaster. The original people and military households in Chongshan Town also benefited a lot.

Yang Zhengshan has long been used to these compliments.

Of course, habits are habits, and Yang Zhengshan still took advantage of such praise.

Why did he work so hard?

Is it for official position?

Or for glory and wealth?

Or is it to achieve the reputation of benevolence?

Actually none of them!

All he wanted was the sense of accomplishment of making a mark.

It’s that sense of accomplishment that I’ve accomplished something big and made countless people grateful and admired.

From the time he first integrated into the Yang family and led the Yang family to live a good life, he had a sense of accomplishment.

After that, he helped the poor in Linguan Fort, Yinghe Fort, Anyuan City, and Tenglongwei, allowing military households and people to have enough food and clothing, and then went to a well-off society.

Everywhere he went, he blessed and praised all the people, which made him feel extremely satisfied and had a great sense of accomplishment.

This is what keeps him diligent in his official duties.

As for why he has such a weird hobby, it's actually very simple.

Because he was just an ordinary person in his previous life and had neither the opportunity nor the ability to achieve such an achievement.

When he came to this world, he had such an opportunity and such ability, so he also had new pursuits.

Yang Zhengshan didn't really care about power and wealth.

As soon as he had the Lingquan space, power and wealth were already within his reach.

If he wasn't pursuing a sense of accomplishment, Yang Zhengshan would prefer a leisurely life.

As for enjoyment, being praised is also a kind of enjoyment.

Now he has a lovely wife, children and grandchildren, servants, and food and wine.

The only thing he lacks is probably a group of wives and concubines!

However, Yang Zhengshan said that he is a person who is free from low tastes, and he is more interested in his heart than his kidneys.

How can physical satisfaction be as enjoyable as psychological satisfaction?

And he doesn't lack physical satisfaction, don't he have a lovely wife?

So Yang Zhengshan likes this feeling of being praised.

Let the people admire him, like having a tiger in your heart and sniffing the roses.

After Yang Zhengshan and Zhang Ye inspected several villages, they followed Zhang Ye to their garrison.

It turned out that the garrison of Jinghu Fort was not here, but as Chongshan Town expanded northward, many garrisons moved their garrisons northward.

There were not many soldiers in the Qianhu Garrison, only more than a hundred people.

Yang Zhengshan's arrival made these soldiers excited and excited.

Compared with the panic of the refugees, the soldiers did not have too much fear of Yang Zhengshan, but were more close to him.

Of course, there was a difference between the superior and the inferior, and they would not act recklessly in front of Yang Zhengshan.

"Greetings, Lord, Lord, you are mighty!"

Hundreds of soldiers stood in front of Yang Zhengshan and shouted loudly.

"Hahaha~~" Yang Zhengshan looked at the group of soldiers and couldn't help laughing.

"Zhang Ye, do you have wine and meat? Today, I will treat my brothers to wine and meat!"

He hadn't come into contact with the lower-level soldiers for a long time. As his identity and status became higher and higher, his opportunities to come into contact with the lower-level soldiers became fewer and fewer.

"My Lord, please wait a moment. I will have someone prepare it right away!" Zhang Ye said with a smile.

Yang Zhengshan winked at his attendant behind him, who immediately took out a silver ingot and handed it to Zhang Ye.

Zhang Ye hesitated a little.

Yang Zhengshan said with a smile, "Take it. This is my treat, so you don't have to go to the garrison office to settle the bill!"

It's not that he can't eat the wine and meat here, but the wine and meat in each Qianhu Office are limited, especially the wine. Qianhu Office will not provide wine. The wine in the Qianhu Office must be the soldiers' own.

Yang Zhengshan is not going to take advantage of the soldiers.

"Then I won't be polite!" Zhang Ye didn't hesitate, took the silver, and went to prepare wine.

Yang Zhengshan turned to the soldiers and said, "It's cold outside, let's go to the main room to chat!"

The lobby of the Qianhu Office is not big, but if you squeeze in, you can squeeze in thirty or forty people. As for the extra people, they can only stand outside or go back to their barracks.

Yang Zhengshan sat among the soldiers, chatting with them casually.

The soldiers were full of energy when they shouted together, but they seemed a little nervous when they talked to him alone.

Yang Zhengshan always had a smile on his face, and asked the soldiers about their families in a friendly manner.

The military households are all miserable!

Even though Yang Zhengshan has been in charge of Chongshan Town for more than two years, the military households in Chongshan Town still live a tight life.

However, compared with the past, the military households' lives have improved a lot.

Last year, the dredging of the Yinghe River and the construction of Heiyun City, and this year's construction of official roads and villages have given the military households and people in Chongshan Town an opportunity to make money.

Although they are all hard labor, this is still a very rare opportunity for them.

After chatting for more than an hour, Zhang Ye brought a group of soldiers to serve wine and meat.

Zhang Ye also spent a lot of money, killing an old cow and two sheep.

"My Lord, there is not much meat in the station. The cattle and sheep we raised before were all in Jinghu Fort. We were a bit hasty to move here this year, so the cattle and sheep were not driven here!" Zhang Ye explained.

"Well, wait until the beginning of next spring, and then drive the cattle and sheep here. The grass here is more delicious, and you can raise more cattle and sheep!"

Yang Zhengshan smiled.

There were too many people, and the main hall could not accommodate them, so some soldiers had to go back to the barracks to drink.

Yang Zhengshan was not polite, holding the wine, wandering in the barracks, and drinking with the soldiers one by one.

The wine was very bad, but Yang Zhengshan drank happily.

And under his leadership, the soldiers also let go and toasted him one after another.

The lively atmosphere even dispelled the severe cold in the middle of the night.

That night, Yang Zhengshan stayed at Qianhu Station and returned to Chongshan Pass the next day.

After entering winter, the various government offices in Chongshan Pass finally became idle.

Although there are still many things to deal with, it is much easier than before.

Yang Zhengshan finally got some free time and rested at home for two days.

The wind stopped, the snow stopped, the dark clouds dispersed, and the warm sunshine fell.

Yang Zhengshan found a recliner and sat under the eaves in front of the main hall, with a stove next to him boiling tea.

While drinking tea, he watched Yang Chengmao and Yang Qingwan practicing spears in the yard.

Yang Chengmao just turned fifteen this year, and he became a warrior half a month ago.

Yang Chengmao's appearance is very different from Yang Chengye. Chengye is tall and strong, with an ordinary appearance, while Chengmao is slightly thinner and handsome.

In terms of personality, Chengye is mature and steady, doing things in a methodical manner, lacking some youthful spirit. Although Chengmao is also relatively stable, he is much more cheerful than Chengye.

As for Yang Qingwan, the word "round and smooth" is the most appropriate.

Her round face looks cute and adorable, especially the baby fat on her face, which makes people want to pinch it.

She looks very much like the former Wang family, but later Wang family developed horizontally, which is very different from the current Qingwan.

I don't know if Qingwan will also develop horizontally in the future!

Just when Yang Zhengshan was thinking about it, Chengmao and Qingwan had put away their spears.

"Grandpa!"

"Well! Not bad!"

Yang Zhengshan withdrew his thoughts and smiled: "Chengmao, your spear lacks a bit of violence, and it doesn't have that kind of indomitable momentum. If your heart is not ruthless, your spear will not be sharp!"

"Remember, our Yang family's spearmanship must be ruthless enough. After stabbing once, don't think about stabbing a second time!"

The Yang family's spearmanship is derived from the spearmanship of fighting on the battlefield, and on the battlefield you may only have one chance to attack, so you must do your best.

Although Yang Zhengshan has improved the Yang family's spearmanship a lot over the years, it still retains the most fundamental artistic conception of the Yang family's spearmanship.

What should be reserved for three points of strength, what to keep back moves, there is no such thing in the Yang family's spearmanship. The Yang family's spearmanship is a force that is used up, only seeking to kill with one blow.

Of course, this is just the basic spearmanship.

When the cultivation reaches the acquired level, the Yang family's spearmanship will also change, because the acquired warrior can use energy.

The burst of power can be full, but the burst of energy requires a continuous burst.

So when it comes to the post-natal realm, the Yang family spear technique still looks extremely sharp, but it has a little more endurance.

In fact, each warrior has a different fighting style. Even if they practice the same technique, their bodies, personalities, habits, and perceptions are all different.

Just like the three brothers Yang Mingcheng, their foundation is the Yang family spear technique and Kui Niu Jin, but if you look at their current battles, you will find that their fighting styles are completely different.

Yang Mingcheng is powerful and heavy, and every move seems to be filled with infinite power.

Yang Mingzhi is flexible and changeable, and his spear tip is sharp but he has more adaptability.

Yang Minghao focuses on energy, and when fighting, the thunder roars and the energy is vigorous. In terms of energy burst, Yang Minghao is still better than Yang Mingcheng and Yang Mingzhi.

They are all disciples taught by Yang Zhengshan, but the three have different styles.

This is actually caused by their bodies, personalities, and habits.

Yang Mingzhi is thin, so he can't do the power and heavy of Yang Mingcheng.

Yang Mingcheng has a simple personality, so he can't adapt to changes.

Yang Minghao's temperament is a bit impatient, so he prefers the burst of energy.

Each has its own characteristics and advantages.

It is impossible to say who is good or bad, only the one that suits you is the best.

However, it is too early for Yang Chengmao. He is still laying the foundation. What he needs to do is to practice the essence of Yang family spearmanship. When he reaches the acquired realm, he will slowly find his own characteristics and find a style that suits him.
