401: Ten Crowds of Misfortunes (eleven) [Two in One](1/2)
The chief clerk was curious.
What exactly does this new county magistrate sell in the gourd?
He picked up his pen and wrote a letter and handed it over to the messenger.
"Remember, you must send the letter to the county magistrate Chen with your own hands, record the other party's expression, and see what the other party's reaction after reading the letter." This messenger was the one who needs to be used by the chief clerk, and was barely considered his confidant.
The messenger put the dried-out letter into his arms.
"only!"
The chief clerk walked out of the tent.
The cold wind that came towards him was scratching his face slightly hurt. He stood on the city wall, looked at the direction of the government office, and laughed, with no warmth in his eyes. He did not forget the knife Zheng Qiao stabbed in this matter...
Can the lackey he sent be a good one?
Even if it is good, it is still the person who hears it.
"…The cat cries rats for pretending to be merciful..."
The chief clerk was patrolling the wardrobe with a sword.
He felt relieved to get off the city tower when he knew there was no problem. He returned to the camp behind. Before he could get close to the main camp, he heard a chirping sound from the main tent. He calmly lifted the thick curtain, and several familiar faces were still shaking.
"What's the matter?" the chief clerk spoke.
A person in the tent said: "The army is full of food, so I don't know where this thing got a few jars of wine from here to bribe us! I don't know how to ban wine in the army? I won't talk about any rules!"
Another person said, "Where did this meat come from?"
In the past, similar things have happened. There are always those responsible for logistics at the bottom of the country, trying to use this to make connections, form cliques in the army to seek protection, or to escape the blame, they use precious wine to buy the superiors.
Several of them are having a meeting to discuss.
The soldiers who delivered the meals ran into each other without eyes.
Chief Regiment: "…"
Looking at the reckless men who were quicker to fight on weekdays and were arrested to handle military affairs, the chief clerk twitched slightly and mocked: "You think carefully..." How many people's words were just praise?
I immediately smiled and said humbly: "This is what I should do! The chief clerk must investigate these guys strictly!"
Chief Regiment: "…"
I feel a little tired_(:з)∠?)_
He waved his hand to signal the little pawn who was so scared that he even forgot what to say, and sat down in his own position and sat upright.
Then he said: "It was not something they got. If they had the ability, would they still be in this place?"
"That's it?"
"Sent by the new county magistrate of Longwu County."
The general sitting in the head frowned tightly, and his face was filled with undisguised disgust: "New County Governor?"
The soldiers below were angry when they heard this: "As soon as they came, I gave them these things, didn't you think they could bribe us?"
Another official said angrily: "Who cares about it!"
"They are generous and generous, and give us food for free, so why don't you eat it?" Everyone present had similar ideas.
It is speculated that Chen Tang has bad intentions, and they do not appreciate this move, whether it is to win over relationships or please bribes.
Be angry with others, but there is no need to be angry with military rations.
Can they be strong and do not have food to eat, and these brothers guarding the gate can also fight on hungry days?
Everyone understands this principle, but it feels uncomfortable, especially the general sitting in the upper hand. This person was rescued by the former Longwu County Magistrate. It can be said that if there were no former county Magistrate, the general would have died long ago.
The former county magistrate did not despise his background and experience, but also entrusted important tasks. In the heart of this general, there was only one county magistrate in Longwu County. He said: "We do not recognize this new county magistrate."
The chief clerk did not surprise his general's reaction.
"I just wrote a letter to test the purpose of this county magistrate Chen. No matter what, as long as I do not interfere in military camp affairs and provide military supplies, it is not impossible to coexist."
Seeing that the general's expression was still unhappy.
The chief clerk politely advised: "Just take it for the sake of the brothers."
These words completely lost the general's opinion.
only--
The general said: "...Afterward, in order to please Shiwu, Zheng Qiao made trouble for Longwu County several times. When the people under him changed their minds, they deliberately delayed the military's needs and supplies. If they replaced a child with little reputation, they would ensure sufficient supply?"
The general is not optimistic about this.
Didn’t the chief clerk think about this?
"It depends on whether the new county magistrate can be a human being."
The military power of Longwu County is in their hands.
Even if this new county magistrate has his own armed force, he will not think it is too strong. He only has the power of governance but no military power, so he cannot cause much storm. At least, the new county magistrate will never interfere in the defense and layout of Yonggu Pass...
Several people didn't stay on this topic for a long time.
Then he talked about the other things.
It was too late, so I simply used a meal together.
Several jars of wine were divided.
Although alcohol is prohibited in the army, it depends on the situation. Yongguguan is extremely cold in winter, and when the military situation is not serious, you can drink some wine to warm up. However, since the military needs and food are sometimes not available, this little benefit is nothing.
Open the wine seal and the strong fragrance of wine fills the air.
The drug test was correct before I started drinking.
"The grain is all new grain, and wine is still good wine... This new county magistrate is a generous person..." several people muttered in their hearts.
The matter of Yongguguan has not yet reached Chen Tang's ears. Although she knew that she was not popular and did not expect that two thousand stones of food would be allowed to accept it, it was probably unexpected that she was suspicious and suspicious of such unpopularity.
A few days later—
Under the repair of a group of infrastructure maniacs with superb skills, Ru Yao's management changes every day. Especially Chen Tang is not short of money or food at this moment, and the pace of recruiting refugees around him to join the construction has not stopped for a moment, and the team is growing day by day.
The reward for two cakes in half a day is a high salary that no one can resist! Young and strong laborers are arranged to work, women or weak elderly people stay behind to do other things, such as sewing winter clothes, for example-
Velvet flower!
_(:з)∠?)_
This is a long-term business.
Compared with other profit-making industries, the profit is not much, but the advantage lies in the long flow and stable revenue.
Under the operation of the capable Xu ATM machine, the velvet flower market is not limited to the three places in the world, but has long been sold to various places with the Xu family business caravan. When it is sold, it has a sign like "the new family style" and has no worries about sales.
Compared with the precious flower decorations that consume a lot of manpower and material resources, velvet flowers are cost-effective.
Chen Tang recommended Xu Jie as the governor of Heyin County, and Xu Jie recommended his cousin Xu Quan to Chen Tang. The relationship between the two families is not the same. Therefore, it is natural that she continues to provide velvet flowers on her side, and Xu Jie helps with the shipment.
When Ru Yao stabilizes, other business projects will also be put on the agenda, making this place prosperous again.
Because she has experience during the Heyin period and Qi Shan and others are all experts in the internal affairs, there are not many things that need Chen Tang to do by herself. Compared with the past, she is much more idle now and can still take time to inspect the progress of various places.
If a refugee said that there were some horse bandits, he would kill them with a few people, and Xu Quan, as a guard, would naturally go away. However, five or six times would be lost in ten times - it was not that they took slow action, but that the information was too slow, and the horse bandits were guys who came and went without a trace. It depends on luck to catch them - the remaining few times were full of loads.
Whenever there is a harvest, the most exciting thing is not the rescued common people, but the common people who are squatting in the city gate.
Why?
Don’t forget, Mr. Shen personally promised that he could get one or two corn by pulling out a hundred hairs of horse bandits.
At first no one believed this decree until a child whose relative died at the hands of a horse bandit angrily pulled the horse bandit a bunch of scalp and was rewarded with two kilograms of corn. The common people who heard the news put aside their fear and rushed to steal the horse bandit's hair.
As the scalp was torn off or cut off with a knife, the screams of these horse bandits were extremely shrill.
They were bound with their hands and feet, and buried below their chests in a pit covered with gold juice. They were reluctant to freeze and starve for two or three days.
The skin of hands and feet has long been ulcerated and maggots are covered with itchy things. When you suffer this kind of blow, you will naturally not live long.
A long life can last for four or five days.
A short life is at most one or two days.
One of them dies and falls into another.
The body would be thrown into a place to burn, and the uncalcined bones were taken to the Jingguan. Any commoner could come over and spit a few spits. This led to the commoner who would cheer for a long time when Chen Tang brought back a group of Xinma bandits.
The hair of the bandits... Oh, no, the fresh corn has to be robbed quickly. I stared at the soldiers planting horse bandits into the pit, and then rushed up. The fierce look made the soldiers in charge of the matter numbly...
But no one felt cruel! Because sympathy with these horse bandits was betraying their relatives who fell in a pool of blood!
Chen Tang has rebuilt Ru Yao these days and has sheltered refugees. None of these good deeds have made the common people even more grateful. Whenever he heard about this, everyone would applaud. They only regret that they were slow, otherwise they would be able to pull out the horses and bandits!
While relieving hatred, there is also food to take...
That would be even more grateful!
"It's really a little knife pulled his butt, and he opened his eyes..."
To be continued...
