Chapter 143 Good wine and good meat entertain these defeated generals
Chapter 143
Only then did Xie Yingdeng loosen his bowstring and severely retaliate against the mean-mouthed Cheng Yaojin. Finally, his thoughts became clearer.
He played the open string and smiled proudly. "Remember, a certain Changzhou Xie Yingdeng is not a pretty boy."
"Xie, if you have the ability to do it without a bow and arrow, let you lick old Cheng Xuanhua's big ax. What would it be like?"
Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened and he screamed.
"Come back quickly!" Yang Qian covered his face, wondering why he recognized such a senior brother, Nima, with a dark face.
Next, the competition continued, but compared to the large gathering of people in the grassy and green forest on the opposite side.
The strength of Osawa Village is indeed slightly inferior, of course, if the opponent allows one to fight ten.
Yang Qian believed that Miss Li Xiuning could push each other to the ground and rub them together, but it was a pity that he did not have this opportunity.
Xu Shiji met Wang Junkuo, whose strength was second only to Shan Xiongxin's strength. He struggled for more than thirty years and was defeated as expected.
Luo Shixin was blocked by the smiling Shan Xiongzhong, and within fifteen seconds, he returned to the main formation in disgrace.
In the end, among the four green forest heroes, only Niu Jinda won a round. Uncle De and Du Fuwei each won a round, and the rest were defeated.
Cheng Yaojin was not ashamed, but kept rejoicing and mocking these two close comrades.
If Yang Qian hadn't stopped him in time, Xu Shiji's double swords and Luo Shixin's steel spear, which made him angry, would have almost turned his bearded face into a piece of coal.
Both sides had exactly five wins each and ended in a draw.
After the game was over, Shan Xiongxin sent someone over, saying that it was hard to see each other before the battle today, and that he would come back tomorrow to drink and eat meat with his brothers.
The heroes of the green forest roared away, leaving behind a group of old people in Xia Zexiang who stared at them.
Yang Qian also breathed a sigh of relief, and after asking Manager Liu to explain it carefully, he said with a smile.
"Senior brother, you guys have nothing to do, so hurry back to your home. You have worked hard today. Manager Liu, please hurry up and accompany my senior brother and the others back home."
"We are waiting for you with good wine and good food, so don't neglect us."
When they heard that there would be wine and meat, Cheng Yaojin and others naturally agreed obediently.
As soon as Manager Liu brought the donkey, he saw that the group of defeated generals were already roaring away, laughing and joking.
"Sir, look at this..."
Manager Liu lowered his head and glanced at his mount, then looked at the green forest scourge that had jumped a hundred steps away, with a desperate expression.
"I'll go and catch them." A hoarse and charming voice sounded from beside Yang Qian.
Yang Qian turned around and noticed that Li Xiuning had been standing quietly beside him.
Li Shimin stayed beside his sister, looking enviously at the group of wind-like green forest heroes.
"...Thank you very much. I really appreciate your help, Mrs. Li." Yang Qian let out a sigh of relief.
"You're welcome." Li Xiuning raised the corners of her mouth slightly to express her mood.
Then he clamped his legs together, and the divine horse beneath him neighed, and Li Xiuning, with her braids flying, carried Fang Tian's painted halberd and left from the dust.
"Sister, dear sister, hey, hey, why didn't you say hello, wait for me..."
Li Shimin felt completely bad, and he chased after his sister with a resentful look on his face.

"Manager Liu, you don't have to go. With Madam Li here to control them, they won't be able to do anything evil."
Yang Qian shook his head. The big thing was already over, but he still had to entertain these defeated generals with good wine and meat. What kind of thing is this?
Fortunately, we can tell these bastards to get out of here soon, so they don't have to worry about it.
The green forest heroes have all disappeared, and then the scene returned to normal.
Yang Qian walked ahead in a graceful manner and walked towards where Magistrate Xu and others were. The village elders of Xiaze Village had also rushed over.
Magistrate Xu stroked his long beard and tried hard to forget the ridiculous and hilarious fighting scene just now.
He tried hard to maintain his dignity as the magistrate of Xingyang County and made the decision.
"Everyone from Daze Village and Xiaze Village, now that the results of the competition have come out, do you have any objections?"
"Daze Village has no objections." Yang Qian glanced at Old Uncle Li and the others behind him and replied calmly.
Wang Bozhang from Xiaze Village could only salute County Magistrate Xu with some frustration. "Your Excellency, County Magistrate Xu, I have no objection to Xiaze Village."
Magistrate Xu glanced at Yang Qian and nodded with a smile.
"Well, in that case, the county will decide here this year. The two villages will still get 50% of the water used in this river."
"Okay, the fight for water is over. Next, it's time to talk about how to solve the water problems in our villages and towns in Xingze."
"It would be better for you, nephew Yang Xian, to speak personally about this matter."
"???" Wang Bozhang, Mr. Wang Xiang and other representatives from Xiaze Village were all confused.
What do you mean? You can solve the water problems of towns and villages in Xingze County...
Yang Qian saluted Magistrate Xu. "Thank you so much, Magistrate Xu, for allowing Qian to offer the opportunity to alleviate the drought in Xingze, face to face, with many wise village chiefs."
"You all must know that my father works in the Department of Industry of the Ministry of Industry of the Central Government and is quite skilled in improving farming equipment."
"This time, in order to solve the drought problem in Xingyang, my father worked hard day and night and finally developed a new type of waterwheel."
"Yesterday, the trial installation of the water tanker was completed. Seven water tankers can irrigate nearly 30,000 acres of fields."
A gentleman with gray beard said with an expression of emotion.
"Mr. Yang, are you sure? Seven water trucks can irrigate 30,000 acres of fields. How big must this water tanker be?"
"It's only two feet in diameter, which is not very big, and the materials used are less than one-third of that of a flip-type waterwheel of the same size."
Yang Qian's words made the gentry and village chiefs in Xingze County unable to sit still.
Magistrate Xu smiled casually. "Actually, I, like everyone else, have some doubts in my heart.
Well, it’s not far from here to the river. You all have carriages and horses, how about we go and have a look together?”
#####
Everyone is suspicious, but since County Master Xu said so, not to mention Yang Qian's various actions since this year.
They have repeatedly refreshed people's understanding and made the impossible possible.
The Nagqu shaft plow invented by his father Yang Ning has already benefited the entire Xingze and even the entire Xingyang County.
Therefore, even if they had doubts, everyone followed the footsteps of Magistrate Xu in a Buddhist-like manner, with the mentality of beating their children on a rainy day and doing so when they are idle.
Within three-quarters of an hour, Magistrate Xu and others were already standing on the tall Yellow River embankment.
Looking at the large embankment near the Yellow River, there are slowly turning waterwheels standing every few dozen steps.
The bamboo-timbered barrel wheel seemed to be moving slowly, but it kept turning tirelessly.
The river water poured out of the huge bamboo tube rushed into the diversion channel.
Along the water tank formed by dissecting the giant bamboo, it flew away and rushed into the distance.
To nourish the countless fields in Daze Village that are thirsty because they haven’t had rain for a long time...
All the village chiefs from Xiaze Village looked at all this with their mouths open.
The trembling Mr. Wang Xiang murmured, "In other words, there will be no water shortage in Daze Village this year?"
Yang Qian nodded matter-of-factly.
"Then why do you still have to compete with me, Xiaze Village, today?" Mr. Wang Xiang turned his head.
Manager Liu snorted with a very contemptuous expression, "Because my young master is a gentleman."
County Magistrate Xu and many other Yingze gentry said: "???"
"???" Yang Qian himself was confused. Does this competition have anything to do with whether I am a gentleman or not?
