139: Escort the tax silver? 【Seeking monthly ticket】
Zhai Le did not go back empty-handed when he left.
There are two altars on the left hand and two altars on the right hand, and they come back fully loaded.
He jumped up nimbly and easily climbed over the low wall and jumped into the wall. Before he could stand still, a very familiar face appeared in his sight. He almost lost his footing, and the relaxed smile on his face froze slightly, and he stood consciously. Okay, he said softly: "Brother..."
Zhai Huan was still dressed as an elegant scholar. When he saw a cousin coming in from outside the wall, his expression was also calm. He was not surprised at all by the way Zhai Le appeared. He just asked in a low voice: "Xiao Fang is this?" How many days are you having fun outside?"
"It's so fun. Brother Shen is such a wonderful person. I've never seen anyone who knows how to play. It's interesting. It's very interesting."
Zhai Le couldn't help but smile when he mentioned the experience of the past few days. His peach blossom eyes, which are naturally smiling, were even more sparkling.
He sat down opposite his cousin.
I happily share my experience of pig farming with Zhai Huan.
Zhai Huan: "...???"
When the cousin said that Mr. Shen knew how to behead pigs, his expression froze for a moment. But when the cousin said that he had also learned the art of beheading pigs, he had beheaded seven females and nine males in the morning, a total of sixteen pigs. Piggy...Zhai Huan's many years of managing his expressions have almost failed.
He rubbed his eyebrows with a headache: "Is that fun?"
Zhai Le said: "It's not fun at all, but I just saw Brother Shen's enthusiasm in making pigs, so I thought this job was quite interesting."
No matter how boring things are, it will be fun if someone is with you.
Zhai Huan's lips moved but didn't say anything.
But Zhai Le understood him, even if his cousin didn't say anything.
It is indeed not a high-end job, and it is even very dirty and tiring. After all, you are dealing with that thing. But if we can do what Brother Shen said, people from ordinary families can also eat delicious meat food. , what does it mean to be dirty and tired?
only--
There was only one thing that puzzled him. Who was the first person to discover that chopped pork tastes delicious? What thoughts and purposes did this person have for stealing his own pig?
Seeing that his cousin was silent and talking about his thoughts, Zhai Le said with a smile: "If the minced pork tastes really good, you can raise more of it in the future. Brother Shen also said that it can be sold in six or seven months. Isn't it a coincidence?" Can we raise two rounds a year? This is better than other meat animals."
He was a little thirsty when he spoke, and then he realized that there was an end game on the chessboard, and there was a cup of slightly hot tea at hand. Even the mat he was sitting on was still warm. He raised his head and looked around: "Are there any guests?"
Zhai Huan said: "Yeah."
Zhai Le was embarrassed and asked whether he should get up: "Is the person leaving?"
Zhai Huan waved his hand to signal him not to get up: "Just left."
"Oh, fortunately."
If you come back earlier, your cousins and friends will see that you don't go through the main entrance and love to climb over the wall, which will easily leave a bad impression.
Zhai Huan asked: "Xiaofang is not curious who that person is?"
Zhai Le smiled and said, "Brother, I don't worry about making friends."
He always trusts his cousin and does not pay too much attention to his interpersonal relationships. Anyway, as long as he knows that his brother will not suffer any disadvantages, he will not interfere if he makes friends with him.
Although Zhai Le didn't ask, how could Zhai Huan hide it from his cousin, who he had the best relationship with, and wrote lightly: "He is the county guard."
Zhai Le was stunned: "Prefect? Sheriff of Sibao County?"
Zhai Huan nodded in recognition: "Well, that's him."
"He wants to recruit brother?"
It's not that Zhai Le looks down on people, it's that he doesn't think highly of the governor of Sibao County. His brother is not a poor scholar without foundation, and his family is not without foundation in the southeastern motherland. If he really extends an olive branch, it is true. Somewhat funny.
Zhai Huan lowered his eyes and said: "There is no solicitation."
Zhai Le muttered: "It would be better if I didn't. I always feel that this person is not very decent. He behaves in a secretive manner and acts like a villain. Although I believe that my brother will not suffer any loss, it is difficult to prevent people from doing bad things. This visit is just for a visit.
Friends, or do you have another purpose?"
Zhai Huan saw that his cousin was preparing to defend to the death, and he said amusedly: "There is another purpose."
Zhai Le frowned.
I don't know if I should ask what the purpose is. But Zhai Huan said it first: "He said that Sibao County is short of personnel, the Gong family has escaped and the traitors have not been caught, and there are hidden dangers in the county, so not many troops can be mobilized at the same time... so
I would like to ask you a favor."
Please help these two brothers???
What needs this kind of force lineup???
What's even more strange is that such a big thing actually requires the help of two young warriors and warriors who have traveled here...
It's actually a bit baffling.
Zhai Le said bluntly: "What can I do to help you? No matter how tight the troops in Sibao County are, it shouldn't be difficult to mobilize thousands of people, right? Where are the troops stationed in the county?"
Most brave warriors will choose to join the army. It is difficult for the outside world to see them, but garrison troops are not uncommon. Taking the seventh-class public officials as an example, the Sibao County garrison can also select one or two. If the seventh-class public officials are difficult to mobilize, then
What about fifth-class officials and sixth-class officials?
Why ask for any foreign aid???
"Help escort a batch of supplies..." Zhai Huan paused and then said, "This batch of supplies is very important. The county guard attaches great importance to it and has mobilized all available troops. He was just worried about an accident, so he asked me to wait.
Help...mostly with tax money."
The county guard didn't directly say what he was escorting, but Zhai Huan roughly guessed it based on the information leaked by the county guard's flashing words.
Zhai Le gasped when he heard the last part.
"Tax money, this, this -"
His instinct told him not to wade into this muddy water.
So he said solemnly: "Even the county governor himself said that the forces in the territory are unstable. If it is really escorting tax money... Isn't this a lice on the bald man's head, an obvious target???"
Why don't you send troops to escort yourself?
I was so afraid of being robbed that I had to be escorted by heavy troops!
Zhai Huan's expression was unmoved at first, and he almost choked when he heard the words behind him. He couldn't help but asked in a funny voice: "Puchi on the bald man's head, Xiaofang, where did you learn these witticisms?"
"Learned from Brother Shen." Zhai Le, who has a young mind, said bluntly: "Brother, this is not important. If it is really tax money, I don't know how many eyes and ears in Sibao County are watching... If we take over this hot potato, what will happen?
Aren’t you making yourself unhappy?”
Zhai Huan: "..."
It's this dear friend Shen Youli again.
It seems that these two are really having fun.
"Brother, I originally wanted to refuse...but it's really hard to refuse such kindness. The escort is a fake team to cover up, so there shouldn't be any big problem. Besides - wouldn't it be better if something really happened?" After that,
There seemed to be a flash of golden light in the young man's dark eyes, "This county governor is cunning and cherishes his life. In order to ensure that the bonded silver is foolproof, he will not be unprepared for any means."
"Fake team?" When Zhai Le heard that it was a fake team, he breathed a sigh of relief. It was not his conspiracy theory. He was really afraid that their brother would become a "scapegoat." His cousin's words also puzzled him.
From what I hear, brother is expecting something to happen???
