"When the autumn grain comes down, will there be enough food for all the people outside and the people in the city together?"
Hearing Fatty Hong mention autumn grain again, Liu Hongji finally couldn't help but interrupted and asked.
He had just walked along with Xiao Han, and the farmland he saw was basically abandoned and covered with all kinds of weeds.
There are only a few small green wheat fields occasionally, which seem to be taken care of by someone.
But with this little farmland, can we support tens of thousands of people in Dengzhou City? No matter how bad Lao Liu is at arithmetic, he still knows that this matter is mysterious.
"this……"
Fatty Hong was immediately speechless when asked by Liu Hongji!
He gave an awkward forced smile, and just as he was about to speak, Xiao Han continued to ask:
"Also, even if the autumn grain comes down and you, the people of Dengzhou City, have enough to eat, what will you do this winter? Do you have houses? Do you have clothes? Do you have medicines? I'm afraid those people don't even have the strength to use firewood for heating.
Go and chop it?"
Xiao Han asked these three questions in a row. Not only did Fatty Hong become speechless, but Master Liu who was carefully accompanying him also made his face tighten. He couldn't help but break a cold sweat in his heart!
In fact, it's not like he and the county master hadn't thought about what Xiao Han asked before!
But the two of them had been thinking hard in the county government office for several days, but they couldn't think of any way to break the situation.
In the end, the county magistrate could only sigh and say: Do your best and obey fate! If it didn't work, he went to the court to cry and ask for more help, so that he could survive this winter.
"These, these..."
Now, when he was asked about these things again, Fatty Hong was like a child who made a mistake, hanging his head and not daring to look at Xiao Han.
When Xiao Han saw this, he stared at him for a long time, and then suddenly... suddenly rolled his eyes and snorted angrily:
"Hmph, you Fatty Hong! Shouldn't you have already set your sights on me?"
"ah?"
"What?"
As soon as Xiao Han said this, not only Master Liu was immediately stunned and stunned!
Even Liu Hongji suddenly raised his head, first looked at Xiao Han, and then carefully looked at Fatty Hong who looked innocent, as if it was the first day he met this fat man.
"No! How is that possible?"
However, under the gazes of these people, although Fatty Hong's mouth twitched obviously, he still waved his hands repeatedly and called out to Tianqu:
"I, I didn't even know you were coming! How could I possibly put the idea on your head? Lord Marquis, you unjustly sentenced me, Lao Hong, to death!"
"Wronged you?"
Originally, Xiao Han was only 70% sure of his guess, but now that he saw Fatty Hong crying out and thinking about what the bastard said before, he was already 100% sure that this evil obstacle had definitely been eliminated long ago.
Come up with your own idea!
Thinking of this, Xiao Han stood up suddenly, came to Fatty Hong, stared into his eyes and asked: "Tell me, how did you know that I would come here?"
"I..." Fatty Hong still wanted to quibble, but when he saw Xiao Han's burning eyes, he immediately felt like a deflated ball. He could only shrink his neck and said bitterly: "I, I really
I didn’t know you would come!”
After saying that, seeing Xiao Han's face darken and raising his hand to fight, he quickly raised his hand to parry and said: "But, but I do want to invite you here! But before I had time to invite you, you came by yourself.
…”
"What do you mean I came here by myself?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Han wished he could give Fatty Hong a kick on the spot!
What does he mean by saying this? Are you cheap about your feelings? You don’t even need to invite him, but he just shows up at your doorstep?
"Hmph!" Thinking of this, Xiao Han patted Fatty Hong on the shoulder and asked through gritted teeth: "Then how are you sure that I will come if you invite me? Judging from your reputation, Fatty Hong, it doesn't seem that big."
"Xiaguan's reputation is naturally not that great!"
Perhaps because he was completely exposed by Xiao Han, Fatty Hong simply broke the pot and said with a flattering smile on his face: "Xia Guan never planned to use Xi Guan's name to invite you!"
"Oh?" Xiao Han raised his eyebrows and asked in disbelief: "Not in your name? Then who else here has such a grand show that even I have to give him face?"
"That's not the case!" Fatty Hong replied hurriedly: "Master Hou, of course you don't have to give face to others. He is from Xia Guanjue, so you will definitely be interested in this person!"
"Who is this person?"
"Hehe, this person is really a strange person..."
Xiao Han and Fatty Hong were playing riddles, but Liu Hongji, who was listening on the side, was not happy. He stomped his feet heavily and glared at Fatty Hong: "Hey... you slippery-tongued county magistrate! Please explain yourself quickly.
Who is this person? Don’t you dare to say more! It depends on whether I beat you or not. Your face will be full of love!"
After being threatened by Liu Hongji, Fatty Hong didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and quickly pointed to the north and replied: "Uh... it's Wang Yuanzhi, Taoist Master Wang! And your old acquaintance, Lord Marquis! Li Rong, Taoist Priest Li Xiao!"
"Wang Yuanzhi? Li Rong?"
Hearing these two names suddenly, Xiao Han's face was confused for a while, and then as if he had just woken up, he patted... Fatty Hong's thigh heavily!
"It's them! Why are they here? How do you know that they and I are old acquaintances?"
"Hiss..." Rubbing his hot thigh meat, Fatty Hong showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Daozhang Wang and Daozhang Li came to Dengzhou a long time ago, and they are even better than those who came from Xiaguan.
Be early! I also came here as a county magistrate to observe the people's situation, and I accidentally discovered them treating the victims!
As for why Xianguan knows that you recognize them both, it is because when Xianguan returned to Chang'an to raise horses, he heard all kinds of news about you, so..."
At this point, Fatty Hong hesitated and stopped talking.
After all, no one would like others to act like a spy, collecting information about themselves everywhere.
But the problem is that in today's Chang'an, even if you don't take the initiative to inquire, you will still get all kinds of information about the Marquis of Sanyuan County from relatives and friends, colleagues and classmates, and even the owner of the neighbor's dog...
What is the history of Xiaohou’s fortune, Xiaohou’s knowledge of things, and Xiaohou’s miraculous military exploits!
Even Xiao Han's risqué news was talked about by people in Chang'an, but it was just short of being written into a book and published widely!
It can be said that in Chang'an, Xiao Han is definitely the most handsome boy in the whole city, bar none!
"Have you heard from me?!"
Sure enough, after hearing what Fatty Hong said, Xiao Han's face immediately darkened, and he approached Fatty Hong sinisterly and asked, "Have you heard anything about me?"
Fatty Hong trembled and replied quickly: "I heard that Mr. Hou, you were born with great talent and unparalleled bravery, and then you disappeared, you disappeared."
