Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 2: Survive
“Ahem!”
Luo Youdu curled up on the ground, covering his throat with his hands, coughing heavily and gasping for breath.
Old Hu was old and was sitting on the ground, sweating profusely from exhaustion, unable to speak.
Apart from the coughing and gasping, there was silence for a while.
Luo Youdu just felt his head buzzing and his memory was a mess.
A series of familiar yet unfamiliar experiences emerged uncontrollably, sometimes ancient, sometimes modern, mixed together in a disorderly manner.
After catching his breath, Old Hu said, "Young Master, why are you doing this? There is no hurdle that cannot be overcome. How can you be worthy of your master if you just walk away?"
Luo Youdu's mind was in a mess, and he instinctively replied: "I just want to try whether the belt is strong!"
His voice was unusually hoarse, obviously he had injured his throat.
“…”
Old Hu was speechless.
If you commit suicide, you must never admit it, even if you are beaten to death.
Old Hu suddenly thought of Zhao Kuangyin who was still waiting in the hall, and hurriedly said, "Young Master, Zhao Du Yu Hou is still waiting in the hall!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Youdu patted his confused head with both hands and forced himself to calm down.
Zhao Kuangyin, the governor of Zhao, is a famous figure in later generations.
The Emperor of Qin, the Emperor of Han, the Emperor of Tang and the Emperor of Song.
Although Luo Youdu did not think that this Song Zu could be compared with the previous three, it was not an easy task for him to lay the foundation of the Song Dynasty in troubled times.
Luo Youdu thought for a moment and said, "Now is not the time to see him!"
He paused, then added, "Just tell him that I was attacked by a villain and have been unconscious ever since. If he doesn't believe me, please ask him to come here."
As he spoke, he suppressed the discomfort in his throat, put away the belt that had nearly cost him his life, and staggered onto the bed beside him.
Old Hu looked at the bed for a moment, and suddenly he understood. His real name was Hu Hui, he was over 60 years old, he had served the Luo family for three generations, and he had learned a lot from his family. He thought he understood something and walked out the door.
In just a moment, footsteps were heard.
Zhao Kuangyin was concerned about Zhao Kuangyi's safety, so he would not give up easily and came to investigate the situation.
Looking at the deep marks on Luo Youdu's neck on the bed, the future Song Zu, who was famous all over the world, didn't know what to say. He left after saying that he would visit him another day.
Luo Youdu felt itchy in his heart and really wanted to squint his eyes to take a look at the appearance of the future founder of the Song Dynasty, but he did not dare to move. In his memory, Zhao Kuangyin's martial arts were at the ceiling level in that era. If the injury on his neck was not real, it would have been impossible to hide it.
Hearing Lao Hu seeing Zhao Kuangyin off, Luo Youdu slowly opened his eyes and looked at the strange yet familiar bed with a slight smile and a little confusion.
Travel through time!
This familiar word actually happened to me.
I never thought that I would travel through time while drinking to drown my sorrows!
What kind of weird logic is this?
Could this be God's punishment for me?
Pooh!
I did nothing wrong, what kind of punishment is that?
Although Luo Youdu was sad, he didn't think there was anything wrong with his decision.
To be more precise, Luo Youdu at this moment should be called Luo Jun. He is 38 years old, a successful man, and the former general manager of Pengcheng Group.
Pengcheng Group was originally called Pengcheng Packaging Equipment Co., Ltd., an inconspicuous small company in the Pearl River Delta. Its boss, Chen Wei, was extremely ambitious and constantly recruited people to enrich his business foundation.
Luo Jun graduated from a second-rate economics university and originally wanted to find a small company to gain experience, but he joined Pengcheng for some reason. As a result, his boss Chen Wei recognized his talent and entrusted him with an important task.
Continuous experience and continuous upgrading.
Under the guidance and leadership of Chen Wei, Luo Jun's talents were fully utilized, and Pengcheng grew from a small company into a well-known enterprise in the Pearl River Delta.
When Chen Wei got old, he handed over his property to his son Chen Hui.
Luo Jun also had considerable funds and connections, and he began to think about starting his own company and becoming his own boss.
Of course, I will avoid industries that my old employer is involved in.
After fighting side by side for many years, Luo Jun has always regarded Chen Wei as his mentor and respected him very much. He expressed his plans to him and hoped to get his support.
Although he was prepared for Chen Wei's opposition, he did not expect the opposition to be so fierce.
After persuasion failed, Chen Wei actually called him an ungrateful person.
Luo Jun smiled bitterly in his heart: Is it not enough to sell my life for fifteen years? Do I have to be tied to this boat of the Chen family for the rest of my life?
After being kicked out by his most respected mentor, Luo Jun was drinking alone at home. As he was drinking, he inexplicably found himself hung up. Then the memories of another person flooded into his mind like a tide.
When the names of Guo Rong, Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Kuangyi, and Wei Renpu appeared in his mind, Luo Jun instantly understood his situation and knew what time and dynasty he was in.
Luo Jun should not be too familiar with this history.
It turns out that the starting point for Pengcheng's take-off was to lean on a big tree. Three years after Luo Jun joined the company, by chance, the company came into contact with a leading local supermarket enterprise.
Pengcheng is a company engaged in packaging equipment, mainly producing plastic bags and packaging boxes. Supermarkets use a huge amount of these products, and as long as the company establishes trade relations with them, its profits will increase several times.
The other party's chairman, Mr. Wan, is a history fan. The historical figure he admires most is Feng Dao, the evergreen of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, a veteran who served ten dynasties and served ten emperors, including Zhuangzong of Later Tang, Mingzong of Later Tang, Emperor Min of Later Tang, the Last Emperor of Later Tang, Gaozu of Later Jin, Emperor Chu of Later Jin, Gaozu of Later Han, Emperor Yin of Later Han, Taizu of Later Zhou and Shizong of Later Zhou. He was a political figure who always served as prime minister, one of the three dukes, and one of the three teachers.
In order to win his favor, Luo Jun studied history for three years. Although he would not say that he was proficient in it, he knew all the deeds of famous people in history, big and small, especially the history of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, which he knew in great detail.
In the end, because of history, Luo Jun and Wan Dong became close friends regardless of age difference, and they would get together from time to time to talk about the past and present.
With this relationship, trade between the two sides is a natural outcome.
As he gained a deeper understanding of Chinese culture, Luo Jun became obsessed with it, praising the contention of a hundred schools of thought, the achievements of the Qin Emperor and Han Emperor, the magnificence of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and the fortitude of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, he was also saddened by the fall of the Han Dynasty, sighed at the decline of the Tang Dynasty, and felt sad for the Five Barbarians' invasion of China and the destruction of Chinese civilization.
Although he knew more about the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms than others, time travel was inevitable. He really wanted to see the elegance of the powerful Han Dynasty and the grandeur of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, rather than come to the turbulent and chaotic late Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period filled with wars and power.
In this age where human life is worthless, Luo Jun thought carefully and decided that he had to rely on the identity of Luo Youdu in order to survive.
In this world, a passerby without an identity may not be more valuable than a cow or a horse .
But if we want to live a good life, we have to solve the current predicament.
