Chapter 84: Breaking the Game and Relieving Difficulties (Part 2)

Xianyu Zhongtong was born as a Jinshi. After becoming a Jinshi in high school and becoming an official, his official career was incredibly smooth. The most important reason was that Xianyu Zhongtong was kind to Yang Zhao, the cousin of the current imperial concubine, before he became successful. Because of his

After the operation, Yang Zhao, who was once penniless, became the county captain of Fufeng County.

The kindness he showed during times of adversity became a great kindness when Yang Zhao became successful, and he must repay it.

So after Xianyu Zhongtong became a Jinshi, he was originally only a supervisory censor of the seventh rank in the imperial court. Because of Yang Zhao's strong recommendation in front of Li Longji, he became the governor of Jiannan Road overnight.

This is simply a rocket-like promotion speed.

However, precisely because he was promoted too quickly and lacked the necessary official experience, Xianyu Zhongtong ultimately lacked a lot of official experience, and in his heart he still had the aloofness and innocence of a scholar.

So now he put himself into Gu Qing's role with a game mentality, but he couldn't figure out how to deal with the trouble in front of him, so he became more and more curious about what Gu Qing would do next.

Gu Qing did nothing.

After returning from Qingcheng County, Gu Qing acted as if nothing had happened. He studied recipes at home every day, or wandered around the village with nothing to do. Occasionally, he ordered the villagers to build houses with an authoritative look. Later, due to improper command, he seriously interfered with the progress of the project.

, and was politely asked to leave by Feng Aweng.

Xianyu Zhongtong had been silently observing Gu Qing, and also sent some followers to Qingcheng County to inquire about new information about the sealed porcelain kiln. He even sent people from Shuzhou City to inquire.

This is not because Xianyu Zhongtong is bored. Now the porcelain kiln in Shiqiao Village is not just Gu Qing's personal property. Its fate is directly related to Xianyu Zhongtong's future. Xianyu Zhongtong has to treat it carefully.

For several days, there was still no movement from Gu Qing, and Xianyu Zhongtong finally couldn't sit still. His time was actually very precious, and he had been wasting it all on Gu Qing recently, but Gu Qing didn't make any move, so Xianyu Zhongtong was a little dissatisfied. Good young man, Porcelain Kiln

Do you think it’s okay if you’re banned? Can you please show some motivation?

That afternoon, Xianyu Zhongtong finally couldn't help but take the initiative to find Gu Qing.

Gu Qing and Song Gensheng were squatting under a large locust tree at the entrance of the village. They were staring at the ground. Gu Qing had a solemn look on his face. He also had a small shovel in his hand and was muttering something.

Xianyu Zhongtong was curious for a while, so he squatted down and took a closer look. He was so angry that he almost fell to the ground.

These two guys are actually observing the ants moving. How free are they?

Xianyu Zhongtong deeply felt that Gu Qing should be given the surname "Xianyu". At this moment, he was a complete salted fish.

"You can't teach a child, you guys..." Xian Yu Zhongtong was so angry that he just opened his mouth, but was interrupted by Gu Qing's hiss.

"Don't make trouble, we are about to enter the cave, be quiet!" Gu Qing said seriously.

Xianyu Zhongtong had no choice but to calm down, feeling suffocated and not knowing how to vent his anger.

Song Gensheng couldn't help but asked: "They brought so much food in, are they going to give it to the ant queen?"

Gu Qing said absently: "It's more or less the same thing. The worker ants supply the ant queen first because it shoulders the important task of reproducing the group, and then it's their turn..."

Song Gensheng suddenly understood: "Similar to the Tang Dynasty, officials from all over the country send congratulations to Chang'an every year. Are these workers the officials from all over the country?"

"Child, you understand."

Xianyu Zhongtong breathed heavily next to him.

Gu Qing stared at the ground, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in a deep voice: "Okay, all the worker ants have entered the hole, hurry up!"

After speaking, Gu Qing raised the shovel and thrust it hard into the ground, pressing it down hard. Finally, he pressed the handle of the shovel and scooped up a large piece of soil. The soil was densely covered with holes, and the panicked ants ran away in panic.

Gu Qing shoveled down the whole ant nest, and the entire ant nest was confiscated and the entire family was wiped out.

"Look, these holes are very special. Some are dormitories for worker ants, some are nurseries for ants, there are also food storage rooms, the queen's palace, etc. For such small insects, their world also has a set of legal rules.

Therefore, everything in the world cannot avoid the word 'rules'. Without rules, nothing can be achieved..."

Regardless of whether Song Gensheng listened or not, Gu Qing still fed him poisonous chicken soup.

Xianyu Zhongtong snorted loudly and said: "A boy who doesn't know how to work hard and doesn't seek to make progress is so mediocre."

Gu Qing, who had just confiscated his family and exterminated his family, was in a good mood. With the victory, Yu Zhongtong smiled and said, "Commander Jie is also in the mood to watch the ants move?"

Xianyu Zhongtong said dissatisfiedly: "When did you become so careless? Don't you plan to open your porcelain kiln?"

Gu Qing said in confusion: "Jie Shuai, I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?"

Xianyu Zhongtong is speechless, why is he anxious? He has something to worry about that he cannot tell anyone.

Gu Qing stared into his eyes and was silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "Jie Shuai, I heard that the most beloved concubine today is from Shuzhou?"

Xianyu Zhongtong was horrified: "How do you know?"

Gu Qing did not answer, but said with a smile: "If the boy's porcelain kiln is designated as tribute porcelain, will the imperial concubine like it? After all, it is the porcelain produced in the imperial concubine's hometown."

Xianyu Zhongtong's expression changed, and he said uncomfortably: "Maybe... you'll like it."

Gu Qing smiled again and said: "If Jieshuai does not give up, on the day when the porcelain kiln is designated as a tribute porcelain, can you ask Jieshuai to name and inscribe the porcelain for the porcelain, and personally send a letter to Chang'an? This porcelain kiln is thanks to Jieshuai's insight."

Jin, I just discovered it in such a remote place. If the imperial concubine likes it, she must have contributed a lot to it."

Xianyu Zhongtong looked at Gu Qing with equal eyes for the first time.

This guy is a monster!

In three sentences, he explained all Xian Yu Zhongtong's thoughts, and also gave him a great favor very wisely. Moreover, this favor was not given in vain. As long as he went to Chang'an, Xian Yu Zhongtong's interests and Gu Qing's interests would be equal from now on.

They were tied together, and the bonding role played by Gong Ci was fully utilized by Gu Qing.

Gu Qing wrote Mid-Autumn Festival poems, Gu Qing made sand tables, and Gu Qing's secret recipe for firing porcelain. To Xianyu Zhongtong, they were just things done by a smart farm boy. Appreciation was appreciation, but it was just appreciation. However, these few words Gu Qing just said

, Xianyu Zhongtong was not only appreciative of Gu Qing, but also shocked.

How could a farm boy who grew up in a remote mountain village have so many abilities? What's even more frightening is that he is so adept at dealing with worldly affairs, like an old man who has experienced a lot of life.

Monster! Monster!

Xianyu Zhongtong was shocked and agitated. He raised his hands and stroked his beard to hide his mood. He tried his best to keep a calm tone and said: "My lord, I will accept your request."

Gu Qing saluted him: "Thank you so much, Commander-in-Chief."

"Good nephew, no courtesy." Xianyu Zhongtong took advantage of the situation and changed the title, and said: "Wine nephew, please don't call me 'Jie Shuai' anymore. That's what outsiders call me. We have a very close relationship, so we should call you uncle and nephew.

"

Gu Qing saluted again with great knowledge of current affairs: "Foolish nephew pays homage to Uncle Xianyu."

"Haha, okay, no courtesy, you and I can get drunk tonight."

"My foolish nephew is going to cook some delicious dishes for my uncle's birthday."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and there was a bit of plastic in their smiles.

There is no need to speak out, the interests have become mutual consensus, so some words no longer need to be concealed.

"My dear nephew, do you need me to take action regarding the sealing of the porcelain kiln?"

Gu Qing shook his head and said with a smile: "Jie Shuai An Xin, please wait, maybe there will be results today."

Just as he was talking, there were rapid footsteps from the end of the mountain road. A follower who was sent out quickly ran from the other end of the mountain road. When he saw Xianyu Zhongtong at the entrance of the village, the follower quickened his pace and ran to him. He bowed first and then walked out.

He took out an official document with a large seal from his arms and handed it to Xianyu Zhongtong with both hands respectfully.

Xianyu Zhongtong took it and looked at it, his eyes condensed, and then he looked at Gu Qing in shock again.

"Pei Di, the governor of Shuzhou, reported the list of officials to the Jiedu Envoy Office. Huang Wenjin, the magistrate of Qingcheng County, has managed well during his six years in office. Under his rule, people live and work in peace and contentment, and agriculture and mulberry trees are prosperous. They are praised by all people. Hundreds of people went to Shuzhou City a few days ago.

, knelt down in front of the governor's office and praised Huang Wenjin's official virtues. Governor Pei saw it with his own eyes and reported it truthfully to the governor's office..."
