What kind of medicine does the new governor sell in his gourd?
He wrote a letter and handed it to the courier.
"Remember, you must deliver the letter to Governor Shen personally, write down the other person's expression, and see what the other person's reaction is after reading the letter." This messenger is a person who is used by the master bookkeeper, and can barely be regarded as his. confidant.
The messenger put the dry paint letter into his arms.
"only!"
The chief clerk walked out of the camp.
The oncoming cold wind hurt his face slightly. He stood on the city wall, looked in the direction of the government office, and laughed, without a trace of warmth in his eyes. He had not forgotten what Zheng Qiao had revealed in this matter. knife……
Could the lackey he sent be a good one?
Even if it is good, it is only the eyes and ears of that person.
"...The cat cries and the mouse fakes mercy..."
The chief secretary, wearing a sword, patrolled a circle of guard towers.
After learning that there was no problem, he calmly walked down the tower and returned to the rear camp. Before he even got close to the main camp, he heard a chirping sound coming from the direction of the main tent. He calmly opened the heavy curtain, and saw a few familiar faces still tugging at each other.
"What's the fuss about?" the chief clerk asked.
Someone in the tent said: "Everything in the army is tight. This guy got a few jars of wine from nowhere to bribe us! Don't you know that alcohol is prohibited in the army? There are no rules at all!"
Another person asked: "Where did this meat come from?"
Similar things have happened in the past. There are always people in charge of logistics who are thinking about this, trying to use this connection to form gangs in the army to find shelter, or in order to escape guilt, they use cherished drinks to bribe their superiors.
A few of them are having a meeting to discuss.
The soldier delivering meals accidentally bumped into him.
Main bookkeeper: "..."
Seeing a few rough guys who were fighting fiercely on weekdays and running faster than the last to catch them handling military affairs, the chief clerk's mouth twitched slightly and mocked: "You have thought carefully..." The chief clerk's words fell on the ears of several people. Isn't it just a compliment?
He immediately smiled and said humbly: "This is what we should do! Chief Secretary, we must strictly investigate these boys!"
Main bookkeeper: "..."
I feel a little tired for no reason_(:з)∠?)_
He waved his hand to the pawn, who was so frightened that he had forgotten what to say, to sit down at his place and sit upright.
Then he said: "They didn't bring this stuff. If they had the ability, would they still be hanging around here?"
"That is?"
"Sent from the new governor of Longwu County."
The general sitting at the top frowned tightly, with undisguised disgust on his face: "The new governor?"
When the soldiers below heard this, they became angry: "You gave these things as soon as you arrived. Do you think you can bribe us with these?"
Another official said angrily: "Who cares!"
"They are generous and give us food for free, why don't we eat it?" Everyone present had similar thoughts.
They speculated that Shen Tang had bad intentions, whether it was to build relationships or to gain bribes, they did not appreciate it.
You can be angry with people, but there is no need to be angry with military rations.
They can fight without food, but these brothers who are guarding the gate can fight with hunger?
Everyone knows this truth, but they feel uncomfortable, especially the general sitting at the top. This person was saved by the former Longwu County Sheriff. It can be said that without the previous Sheriff, this general would have died long ago. Die again.
The former county governor did not despise his background and experience, but also entrusted him with important responsibilities. In the general's mind, there was only one county governor in Longwu County. He said: "We don't recognize this new county governor."
The chief clerk was not surprised by his general's reaction.
"I just wrote a letter to test the purpose of Governor Shen's visit. No matter what, as long as we don't interfere in the affairs of the military camp and can provide military supplies and food, it's not impossible to coexist."
The general still looked unhappy when he saw him.
The chief clerk politely advised: "Just think of it for the sake of the brothers."
These words made the general completely lost his opinion.
only--
The general said: "...Before, in order to please Shiwu, Zheng Qiao made things difficult for Longwu County several times. The people under him took advantage of the situation and deliberately delayed the military supplies. Instead, he replaced him with a yellow-mouthed boy with little reputation. Guaranteed sufficient supply?”
The general is not optimistic about this.
Why hasn't the chief secretary thought about this?
"It all depends on whether the new county magistrate is a good person or not."
The military power of Longwu County is in their hands.
Even if the new county guard has his own armed force, he won't be too strong. He has governance power but no military power, so he won't be able to cause much trouble. At least, the new county guard will never want to interfere with the defense and layout of Yonggu Pass. …
A few people didn't stay on this topic for long.
Then he started talking about other things.
It was too late, so we just had a meal together.
Several jars of wine were divided.
Although alcohol is prohibited in the military, it depends on the situation. The winter at Yonggu Pass is extremely cold. When the military situation is not serious, you can drink some wine to warm up. However, since the military needs food and grass, sometimes it is not available, so this benefit is equivalent to nothing.
Open the wine seal and the strong aroma of wine fills the air.
Only after testing the poison is correct, start drinking.
"The grain is all new, and the wine is still good... This new county governor is a generous man..." Several people murmured in their hearts.
The matter related to Yonggu has not reached Shen Tang's ears for the time being. Although she knows that she is not popular, she does not expect that she will be accepted by them with just two thousand stones of food and grass, but she is still suspected of being so unpopular. I'm afraid it's also unexpected.
A few days later——
Under the repairs of a group of skilled infrastructure construction maniacs, Ruyao, the administrative center, is undergoing major changes every day. Especially since Shen Tang is not short of money and food at the moment, and is recruiting the surrounding refugees to join the construction at a moment's notice. Stop, the team is growing day by day.
The remuneration of two pancakes for half a day is a high salary that no one can resist nowadays! The young laborers are assigned to work, while the women or the frail elderly stay behind to do other things, such as sewing winter clothes, for example - —
Velvet flower!
_(:з)∠?)_
This is a long-term business.
Compared with other profiteering industries, the profit is not much, but the advantage is that the stream of water is long and the revenue is stable.
Under the capable management of Xu ATM machine solution, the velvet flower market is not limited to the three places of Tianhai. It has long been sold to various places with the Xu family's business caravan. When selling, they put up signs such as "New Fashion of the Family", which is no longer a problem. Worry about sales.
Compared with expensive flower decorations that consume a lot of manpower and material resources to cultivate, velvet flowers are very cost-effective.
Shen Tang recommended Xu Jie as the governor of Heyin County, and Xu Jie recommended his cousin Xu Quan to Shen Tang. The relationship between the two families was extremely close. Therefore, she continued to provide velvet flowers, and Xu Jie helped with the shipment. It is also a matter of course.
When Ruyao stabilizes, other business projects will be put on the agenda to make this place prosperous again.
Because of the experience she had during He Yin's time, and the fact that Qi Shan and others are all experts in internal affairs, there are not many things that Shen Tang actually needs to do personally. Compared with before, she is now much more leisurely, and can still find time to inspect the progress of various places.
If a refugee says that there is a horse bandit somewhere, he will take a few people with him and kill him. Xu Quan will naturally not leave as a guard. However, five or six times out of ten, he will be defeated - it is not that they are slow in taking action, but because of the information. The delivery was too slow, and the horse bandits came and went without a trace, so catching them depended on luck - the remaining few times they returned with a full load.
Whenever there is a harvest, the most excited people are not the rescued people, but the people squatting at the city gate.
why?
Don't forget, Mr. Shen personally promised that if you pull out a hundred hairs of a horse bandit, you can get one or two corns.
No one believed this decree at first, until a child whose relative died at the hands of a horse bandit angrily ripped off a handful of the horse bandit's scalp and was rewarded with two kilograms of corn. After hearing the news, the common people put aside their fear and rushed to rob the horse bandit. s hair.
As their scalps were torn off or cut off with knives, the screams of these horse bandits were also extremely shrill.
Their hands and feet were tied, their chests were buried in pits covered with gold juice, and they were left to freeze and starve for two or three days.
The skin on my hands and feet had long been ulcerated, covered with maggots, and extremely itchy. If I suffered such a blow at this time, I would naturally not live long.
Those who live longer can survive for four or five days.
The short life span is only one or two days at most.
When one dies, another one falls in again.
The corpses would be thrown into one place and burned, and the unburned bones would be used to build a temple in the capital. Any common people could come and spit on them. This resulted in that every time Shen Tang brought back a new group of horse bandits, the common people at the gate of the city would have to Cheered for a long time.
The hair of the horse bandits... ah, no, fresh corn must be snatched quickly by hand. Watching the soldiers planting the horse bandits into the pit, and then swarming up, the men in charge looked numb...
However, no one feels cruel! Because to sympathize with these horse bandits is to betray the relatives who are lying in a pool of blood!
And Shen Tang has been rebuilding Ruyao, sheltering refugees, and doing various good deeds these days, but nothing like this has made the people even more grateful. When they heard about this, everyone clapped their hands and cheered. They only regretted that they were slow, otherwise they would have scalped the bandit!
While relieving hatred, you can also get food...
Then I would be even more grateful!
"It's really a knife to pull the ass, it opened my eyes..."
When Xu Quan wrote a letter home to his cousin, he truthfully wrote down what he saw, heard and thought.
Xu Jie: "..."
Such vulgar and bold witticisms... There was no other choice except Shen Jun. He just felt it hurt his eyes.
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻This kid has been with Shen Jun for so long, can’t he learn a little bit?
It's vulgar, but it can express his inner emotions accurately. Not only Xu Quan was shocked, but Xu Jie was also frightened by Shen Jun's changes in Longwu County. After thinking about it, he realized that it was normal. A gentleman's kindness does not mean that he is cowardly and can be bullied.
How can a place like Longwu County gain a foothold without ruthless measures? Especially after Xu Jie sent people to investigate the intelligence of Longwu County, this feeling became even deeper. Because the most troublesome thing here is not just the rampant horse bandits and the coveting of Shiwu... …
We should be more careful about the one who is permanently locked up.
A confidant of the former Sheriff.
————————
Shen Tang rode on the back of his motorcycle, waved to the cheering people, and swaggered all the way back to the government office - after these days of repairs and tidying up, he barely had a house to stay in.
As soon as the front foot landed, a messenger came over the back foot.
"messenger?"
Chu Yao said: "It's a reply from Yonggu Pass."
Shen Tang called for a messenger to come over.
Uncover the fire paint and read all the ten lines.
The messenger stood below and carefully observed Shen Tang's facial reaction with his peripheral vision, but found that the other party did not even frown. After a while, he said: "I already know the request made by your chief secretary. Although the current world is difficult, the soldiers are guarding No matter how difficult the border is, it can't make them suffer. I have already sent people to prepare the remaining military supplies..."
The messenger didn't know the content of the letter, but he also knew the master's temperament, so he definitely didn't write anything good.
So, the new county governor is not angry?
He was beating a drum in his heart.
Answer according to the situation and you can't make a mistake.
Shen Tang asked someone to take him down to rest.
He left with his front foot, and Shen Tang sneered at the back foot.
"We are really being taken advantage of!"
Shen Tang handed the letter to Chu Yao to read. There was nothing offensive in the letter, nor did it reject or disapprove of her as the county governor, but the meaning behind the words was the same -
Cry poor!
He cried out that the soldiers had few supplies to keep out the cold, and how many brothers froze to death; expendable items such as spears and arrows were reused and reused, and the blades in the hands of many soldiers were curled and scrapped. The army once ran out of food, and the soldiers were starving to guard. Yonggu Pass, in short, those who heard it were sad and those who heard it shed tears. The chief secretary was still speculating on when the royal court would reissue this batch of military pay...
She searched all over and couldn't find any friendly words such as sending someone to communicate and cooperate with Shen Tang...
Chu Yao said: "The hostility is obvious."
Shen Tang had a headache: "You can't betray your face."
Taking the initiative to give people supplies is completely different from being kidnapped and giving them supplies. In the former, she has the initiative, but in the latter, she is not only passive but also coerced by others. Shen Tang originally thought that even if the other party did not appreciate it, his attitude would be better, and at least he would give some. Good look.
Who would have thought that this guy would be hard-pressed to eat soft food.
Chu Yao thought for a moment, holding the letter and wondering what he was thinking. After a long time, he said: "Wu Lang, you might as well let me go over and take a look at the situation. No matter how much hostility there is, there is always a source. If it can be solved, it will be a good thing. "
Shen Tang was startled.
Because Wuhui hasn't called her that for a long time.
Every time he shouts this, it means that he has made up his mind.
Shen Tang: "Ruyao can't live without Wuhui."
Business trips in the winter should be left to young people like Qi Shan, Kang Shi, and Chu Yao with old arms and legs. They should just stay at the rear and coordinate. The most important thing is that the attitude at Yonggu Pass is very unfriendly. What should I do if Chu Yao was detained in the past?
Shen Tang didn't want to see this scene.
"Goro..."
"...This, this is okay."
The thing she couldn't resist the most was Qi Shan calling her "Shen Xiaolangjun" and Chu Yao calling her "Five Langjun". When they called her, she got a headache. Shen Tang said, "Just to be on the safe side, let Wen Shi and Shousheng follow." You, bring a hundred more people. If they want to take action, don't worry about the relationship between the two parties, just do it!"
Chu Yao: "..."
This, this is not necessary.
The matter is not that serious. He just went to Yonggu Pass to test it out, not to go there and start a fight... But Chu Yao could only accept his lord's kindness.
Without wasting time, Chu Yao packed up and prepared to follow the messenger to Yonggu Pass the next day.
Rarely, Chu Yao put on his sword.
The clothes of scholars are relatively loose, which is quite simple.
He doesn't look like a scribe...
Rather, he is like a Confucian knight wielding a sword to the end of the world.
Or a Confucian hero wearing limited edition gray hair!
He met up with Xu Quan and his party outside the city gate.
Xu Quan keenly smelled a smell that was not right, turned his head and whispered to Lu Jue: "Brother Shousheng, are you sure we are just escorting Mr. on his mission to Yonggu Pass... Why do I see Mr.'s posture... It's more like looking for People fight..."
Will it not be enough for them to bring so many hundred people?
Do you want to roll another five or six hundred number?
These few people are not enough to fill the gap between the enemy's teeth.
