Once the midsummer rain starts, it is not easy to stop.
The same seems to be true for Dongdu... Zhang Xing was sensitive to the fact that the geography of this world could easily be 'displaced' due to some powerful beings.
Of course, for people in this world, this is natural.
Among the seven supreme beings, there are inherently evolved gods such as the Sanhui. It is also a normal rhythm for real dragons to overturn rivers and seas, and to split earth and open mountains.
Among them, when Emperor Bai rose from Shu and swept across the Central Plains, he opened some channels in the Qinling Mountains and dredged and expanded the Han River Basin. This does not seem to be worth paying too much attention to.
But obviously, since then, it is a fact that the Central Plains area where Dongdu is located has received slightly more precipitation in midsummer.
The rain continued to pour for several days, and the bloody clearing operation in Jiaqing and Jiajing Second Lane finally ended successfully on the fifth day.
However, the actions in the next two days had little to do with Zhang Xing, because since that day when he was "heroically injured" while chasing the leader of the Dayi Gang, he has only done two things. One is to make up and fill in various information based on the situation.
One kind of form was so messed up that even he himself couldn't understand its usefulness, and then handed it over to Xue Liang who came regularly every evening; the other was to assign logistics and distribute rewards to all the various military personnel who worked hard to kill on the front line.
By the way, prepare iced sour plum soup for everyone.
Especially the iced sour plum soup is widely praised.
"That's not how the accounts are calculated, Manager Xu, my subordinates almost got fooled by you."
The rain rarely stopped for a while, the twilight showed a little, and the big moon slightly revealed half of its face next to the clouds. Under the brightly lit sky street corridor, Zhang Xingzheng politely and seriously argued with Xu Wei, the city defense officer sitting opposite him. "You guys.
The people on the wall helped, but the person who helped and the person who helped are not the same thing, just like the profit sharing of combat personnel and the profit sharing of logistics personnel are completely different..."
"Zhang Sanlang, I didn't say that the people on the wall should get a share of the battle profits, but the ordnance comes from us. How can transporting ordnance be considered logistics?" Xu Daguan caught the other party's words and said,
Quickly reiterate your request.
"Can logistics and logistics be the same?" Zhang Xing pointed to the clean Tianjie and asked seriously. "Those who work hard here all night to collect corpses, those who carry rice, flour and firewood in the workshop all day long, are burned in the brick kiln in the workshop
Can the one with ashes be the same as the one who carried two bundles of crossbow arrows down to the city?"
"Then what do you want?" Xu Daguan was discouraged for a moment.
"Seventy guan." Zhang Xing finally came up with the plan he had thought up. "Carrying ordnance is a practical job, and it is a sophisticated job. We will give you an extra 70 guan. I have inquired about it.
There are thirty-five people left, and each of them has two strings... let them come down and receive them by themselves, sign and circle them."
Xu Daguan was overjoyed for a moment. He originally thought they were all gone, but unexpectedly there were still seventy strings left. But when he heard the last sentence, he was discouraged.
To put it bluntly, if he lets his subordinates collect it by himself, what benefits will he gain?
After thinking for a moment, Xu Daguan looked around, lowered his voice and said, "Zhang Sanlang... raise your hand, I only want fifty guan, and you can keep 20 guan for yourself."
Zhang Xing sighed, got up and walked towards the distance along the corridor. A few dozen steps away, Bai Yousi led Qian Tang, Qin Bao, Li Qingchen and several other young knights in brocade clothes to sit casually on the corridor, and then held
Enjoy the moon with ice-cold sour plum soup.
Seeing that Zhang Xing seemed unwilling to give him a fifty-dollar profit, and even wanted to file a complaint, Mr. Xu felt sour. However, the power of these golden-clad dogs in the past few days was in his mind, and he did not dare to run away.
However, to his surprise, when Zhang Sanlang arrived there, he did not say anything to the noble daughter of the Bai family. Instead, he just asked one of them to stand up slightly, then took a heavy robe from the box under the person, and then returned quietly.
.
"Seventy taels of silver." Zhang Xing threw the stuffed sack to the other party and explained seriously. "The ordnance was moved by your subordinates, Chief Xu. No matter how much or how little, it has nothing to do with you, but opening the tower ordnance
Inventory, lending our ordnance, and the depreciation of ordnance, etc., are the responsibility of General Xu... In fact, the distribution in my hand is an example of your responsibility. Naturally, the personal benefits of General Xu on your wall are also indispensable.
, even with this benefit, you have more than the others, the others only have fifty taels... Why bother to compete with the people below for food? "
When Xu Daguan heard about half of the story, he hid the gauze that had been shaken several times in his arms. When he heard the last word, he nodded repeatedly: "I knew Zhang Sanlang was a luxurious person, so I can't thank you for this."
, the prime ministers in Nanya are not fair to you... Don’t worry, I will ask them to collect the money tomorrow."
"That's right." Zhang Xing thought for a while and reminded again. "There was a fire in the four gates of the workshop and a lot of hot water was boiled. When we go back, Mr. Xu might as well ask the brothers on the wall to find a basin and towel, and take turns
Come down and take a hot bath... It’s been raining for days, and your body is dirty. Take a bath, soak your feet, and sleep clean and refreshed at night.”
Director Xu nodded hurriedly, and then stood up to go back. However, after taking two steps, he seemed to think of something, and then quickly returned to the table and lowered his voice and asked:
"Would you like to give Inspector Bai a hand and sign up?"
Zhang Xing quickly waved his hand: "Don't bring trouble to the Emperor's feet."
"I think so." Xu Daguan immediately pointed his finger at the heart. "But Zhang Sanlang must convey it to my brother. I am the most respectful to the Three Glory and Four Imperials... My thoughts here have not changed.
.”
Almost done!
Zhang Xing's patience is finally coming to an end... Why don't you say that the big moon, one of the three splendors, represents your heart when you still respect the three splendors and the four emperors? If I relay it to you, I'm afraid it will be the group of ladies who are accompanying the inspection.
Watch the moon's armored knights secretly blow your head off!
Moreover, do you really think that the inspection team is so far away that they can’t hear what you say?
Of course, while thinking this in his heart, Zhang Xing was very serious on his face: "I know, I know, I will definitely convey it, I will convey it!"
Sure enough, Bai Yousi glanced over quietly from a distance, then continued to look at the sky and the moon.
And Guan Xu finally stood up again.
Then he came back again.
"Zhang Sanlang." Mr. Xu answered sincerely. "I don't know if you have any arrangements... But since you gave me seventy taels of silver, I have to go to the Taoist road. It's inconvenient for you to sit on the street now, so I just say
There is a place, I will send someone to send you to your home in a few days."
Bai Yousi in the distance was motionless, but Zhang Xing's scalp felt numb when he heard it. He had to sigh and pointed at Bai Yousi in the distance:
"Director Xu, do you know why Inspector Bai is so selfless this time? He doesn't want profit or credit, so why don't you want to be grateful?"
"I know." Mr. Xu glanced at the group of people in the distance and laughed in a low voice. "The noble daughter of the Bai family lacks everything and is so skilled in martial arts. If she really wants to go beyond her duties to be a good person at this juncture, she should be taboo with others.
Said she bought people's hearts."
"That's right." Zhang Xing answered seriously. "The noble girl of the Bai family lacks nothing. The only thing she lacks is that she lacks 'nothing is lost' at this time... She cannot tell the truth, and she is worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, and the hearts of the people.
That's all... That's why I am selfless, and the money collected is determined by the public, and then I don't even give you some reward money."
At this point, Zhang Xing pointed to himself and said: "I am still lacking 'no loss'! I just need to get this matter sorted out. I never thought about getting rich."
Officer Xu was startled for a moment, nodded, stood up, and finally said the last words: "Zhang Sanlang, brother, I want to give you a heartfelt message... Some people are beyond your reach. You have to try.
It's okay, you're young... but you have to have a plan in mind. If it doesn't work in a few years, you can turn back early and bring all the rich and powerful people out to give an explanation to your family. I just said that your division and capture are better than those of the Nanya princes, and I am definitely telling the truth.
, you are really good at what you do, and after just one incident, you have established yourself in Dongdu. At least everyone here in Nancheng will recognize you as Zhang Sanlang."
With that said, Xu Daguan touched the sash in his arms, held the saber in his hand, and flew south along Tianjie.
Zhang Xing was stunned for a long time before he realized that the other party had misunderstood what he meant, but he didn't bother to pay attention to it... Without him, in this Jinyi Patrol Team, which ranked second in the Taichung Town Fu Division of Jing'an, Fan Fan had no family,
Almost everyone has some natural thoughts. It is natural for the other party to misunderstand, and other people are not inferior to his misunderstanding.
Who told me that I am from a high family, good at martial arts, and pretty good-looking?
Thinking of this, Zhang Xing just wanted to go to the workshop to take a bath and rest early. Instead, he took out a few notebooks under the table, checked them quickly, and turned to Bai Yousi, who was still admiring the moon.
"Inspection, there is official business." Zhang Xing generously handed over several notebooks in his hand under the gaze of the young patrolmen. "The accounts have been prepared... three accounts, one is the open account for Taichung;
The secret account is divided into two books, one records the profit sharing of my brothers, and the other does not record... If there are no mistakes, all the floating wealth will be paid out according to the secret account early tomorrow morning, and the open account will be made into a document and handed in."
Bai Yousi nodded and took it with a rare smile: "Thank you for your hard work, Sanlang. If it weren't for you, this matter wouldn't have started and ended so easily."
With just one word, Zhang Xing's back was filled with the attention of several colleagues.
However, even though he obviously knew that the other party was teasing him, Zhang Xing had no choice but to wave his hand: "If you don't work hard, it's not as hard as brothers working hard in the workshop. I'm just lazy."
"I know what's going on." Bai Yousi put the three account books in order and asked while flipping through them. "Did you know that Zhongcheng's reward came out yesterday?"
"know."
"Then do you know that yesterday evening, everyone in Beijing and Zhu Shou were summoned by Zhongcheng, and starting from this morning, all the buildings in Nancheng led by Jing'an Tai will use the two buildings we led as a standard to clean up Nancheng in a unified way?"
"I know, and I know that Zhongcheng still thinks that we kill too many people. It would be enough to kill ten of the ten thousand people in other villages."
"That's right." Bai Yousi looked at the account book without raising his head, but his smile was obvious. "Then do you know that Zhongcheng once asked me to divide this group of patrols into various groups to help guide, but I refused?"
"I don't know." Zhang Xing thought for a while and decided that it would be better to flatter him before the situation became clear. After all, the other party's smile was too charming. "But the inspection was done very well... How can we compare ourselves?
After your work is done, well done, and done quickly, why should you help others? Moreover, after days of hard work, you have to make plans, organize manpower and material resources, and then you have to command, fight, and distribute materials.
, we still have to deal with corpses, injured people, and deal with the aftermath. Not all of our people are as advanced as the patrol inspectors, and they all need to rest. But when I went to work as a guide in another group, I had no money and no credit.
I don’t want to talk about being wronged and tired, I’m afraid I’m just going to meet Ma Kui, the ‘Zongyun Sword’ again, and I won’t have the protection of the patrol.”
These words were said with sincerity and sincerity, and they were flattering and flattering, but it made Qian Tang and others look at Zhang Xing again and again, and they all felt that Zhang Xing was indeed a powerful enemy.
"Yes." Bai Yousi looked at the account book and was actually happy with it. "In the final analysis, there is a storm in the court, and we are just doing this to protect ourselves... There is no need to fight over that matter."
"Yes." Zhang Xing nodded sincerely, thinking that the other party felt comfortable being photographed and had passed the test today.
"So, just because I was afraid that you would get involved in a big mess, I specifically refused Zhong Cheng's suggestion that you go to the Black Tower to teach those forms." Bai Yousi put down the account book and stared at Zhang Xing to look at it seriously. "Transfer to the Black Tower.
Ta, if you do this, after three months, you can add a white ribbon according to the custom... You won't resent me, right?"
Zhang Xing didn't react for a while, but it took him a while to realize what he meant, but he waved his hands repeatedly and answered sincerely: "How could it be? I'm grateful that it's not even late for the inspection... Here in Dongdu, things are booming, and I'm here
Such a small person is relying on inspections for protection, but without inspections, he cannot even save his life."
Bai Yousi and several of the patrolmen had different expressions, but they all stared at Zhang Xing, as if they wanted to verify what this man said.
But after watching for a long time, Bai Yousi was still unable to detect the hypocrisy of the other party, but he was slightly relieved: "Don't worry, although your cultivation is a bit poor, your cultivation, culture, sophistication and quality are all
Excellent, you will earn some wealth sooner or later."
Hearing this, Zhang Xing still didn't know that the old lady must have overheard what Chief Xu said just now. Knowing that she had been running around so much these days, she felt a little embarrassed, so she comforted her a little.
"Don't worry about the inspection." After thinking about this, Zhang Xing himself felt relieved, but he handed it over proudly. "I really have no intention of getting rich, but I'm afraid that if I do things seriously with my conscience, the riches will come.
Force me...but I'm usually a narrow-minded person, so when I have to deal with it, I'm afraid that a temper will come up, and I won't see wealth before I see weapons...When the time comes, I will have to inspect the high door behind me and the long sword in my waist.
Give me some cover."
After saying that, he cupped his hands and left directly, as if he was going to take a bath and sleep inside the square gate, leaving these people alone to enjoy the moon.
Bai Yousi stared at the man's back for a while, then savored it carefully. He still didn't notice any hypocrisy in the other person's words, and was stunned for a moment.
That is to say, in the midst of stunned confusion, suddenly, the weather became dull, the dark clouds rolled over the bright moon again, and the helpless summer rain began to fall again.
It was midsummer and it was raining in Dongdu City.
The next day, the rain continued, and at noon, an explosive news suddenly came. The day after the various workshops led by Jingantai in Nancheng tried to launch a new plan with the main content of cracking down on local gangs and relieving victims, Zhengpingfang
A large-scale civil unrest broke out, apparently instigated by a group of imperial prisoners who had previously robbed and escaped from prison, as well as core organizational forces. As a result, officers and soldiers from all walks of life in Zhengpingfang were ambushed, resulting in numerous casualties.
For a time, there were rumors and cavalry everywhere, and even streamers occasionally flew over the eastern capital city where the ban had been temporarily lifted. All soldiers and horses received military orders, but only a few people were retained to control Tianjie. All other elite forces immediately went there unconditionally.
Zhengpingfang support.
The second patrol team, which had just distributed the money and was preparing to rest in Jiajing and Jiaqing until the half-month deadline, had no choice but to immediately split into two. One team was led by Deputy Inspector Hei Shou Hu Yan and the other team was left behind.
Under the leadership of Bai Yousi, they quickly marched along Tianjie to provide support.
Zhang Xing was assigned to the Bai Yousi group.
ps: Thanks to Asakura, Yui, I don’t talk about martial ethics, and the three classmates of the handyman leader are so cute... I am grateful... Happy New Year to everyone.
