Chapter 88: Ask the captain, Zhao Tian's opinion is refuted
Song Ci and the others were already waiting at Wangxiang Tower.
In front of Wangxiang Tower, there are nine large pots. In front of each pot is a flag with the donor's information written on it.
The name of Nanquan Li Xiaolin appears in front of the first pot, the second pot was a gift from Yuanlou, and the next six are all famous businessmen in Nanyang County.
The pots donated by the Nanyang County Government were ranked last. Song Ci probably felt that officials should put the people first, and that officials should be humble.
The pots were covered with lids, but they couldn't cover up the aroma of the porridge.
Outside Wangxiang Building, there was already a sea of people. Not only people from Nanyang County, but also people from other counties came to join in the fun. They all came with bowls and chopsticks, wanting to see this annual porridge soup event.
"Give way, give way."
Someone was shouting, and a burst of heat followed.
The crowd immediately formed a line.
I saw a few strong men walking towards this side carrying a big pot.
The porridge in the pot was swaying, and the aroma was overflowing, making everyone on both sides swallow their saliva.
"Master Qin, Master Song, this is the porridge given by the Sixth Prince. Where can I put it?"
Qin and Song looked at each other.
Qin Shaobai looked at Nan Quan with some embarrassment, but who knew that Nan Quan had already laughed out loud.
"Second son, please help the prince quickly bring the porridge pot and put it in the first place."
As soon as the second son heard this, he immediately stepped forward, made a two-character horse, and with both hands, he actually lifted the rope on the porridge pot.
He gently placed the dozens of kilograms of hot pots in the first row.
"Okay, good arm strength. Mr. Li, you have quite a few strong men." The sixth prince, Zhao Tian, clapped his hands and walked over, followed by Xiaolan.
Xiaowan took Luo Baotou's hand and jumped behind.
There was no trace of Zhao Yue'er.
"Mr. Li, you are so polite. Everything has a first-come, first-served basis. My pot of porridge comes last, so it should be put at the end."
"Sixth Prince, your porridge is the last to arrive, but haven't you noticed? As soon as your porridge arrives, everyone is swallowing their saliva? It means that your porridge is the most fragrant, so naturally it should be put first
.”
The two of them said a few more polite words and looked at Qin Shaobai together.
Qin Shaobai laughed awkwardly, but he really felt that the aroma of Xiaolan's pot of porridge was so refreshing and refreshing that it surpassed all the nine pots of porridge present.
"Master Qin." Song Ci gently pushed Qin Shaobai, "It's almost time. Everyone is waiting to drink porridge."
It turns out that it was he, the county magistrate, who announced such an important thing as giving out soup.
Qin Shaobai suddenly felt that his whole body was full of strength. He straightened his body, cleared his throat, and stood in the middle.
Suddenly he lowered his head and whispered to Song Ci: "Do I need to say something to encourage morale?"
Song Cizheng was staring at the crowd intently. Hearing Qin Shaobai's question, he couldn't help laughing. He leaned over and whispered: "I say Shaobai, you are not on the battlefield now. There is no need to say anything shocking."
Yes, just tell me to start giving out porridge, everyone is waiting to drink porridge."
Qin Shaobai shrugged his shoulders helplessly, this was too disrespectful.
"Dear fellow villagers, it's the Laba Festival again. As the saying goes, after Laba Festival, the New Year begins. Today we are sharing the fragrant aroma of Laba porridge. From today on, we will happily welcome the arrival of the New Year together."
The audience was completely silent, all eyes were staring at Qin Shaobai, waiting for Qin Shaobai to say the most important words.
Qin Shaobai felt that Song Ci was looking at him with incredible eyes, half smiling and half reproachful. Knowing that he might have said too much, he quickly ended the conversation: "I announce that the Nanyang County Laba porridge sharing event will now begin.
.”
Thunderous cheers.
The dark crowd all ran towards the porridge pot.
Qin Shaobai was about to call Xiao Shan and the others to come out to maintain order, but he saw that Xiao Shan had already led the police officers to stand in front of each pot of porridge, orderly directing the representatives of each family to serve the porridge.
When the porridge was almost ready, Qin Shaobai turned to the people in front of their respective porridge pots:
"Sixth Prince, Mr. Nanquan, Master Song, let's go to Wangxiang Tower and have a cup of tea."
"It just so happens that both adults are here, and you are also here, Mr. Li. I have something to discuss with you."
The Sixth Prince said and called out to the crowd: "Feiyu, go to the county garrison quickly and invite Lieutenant Lu here to discuss matters."
When Song Ci and the three of them heard this, their faces turned cold.
"Sixth Prince, in this peaceful and prosperous time, what can be done in Nanyang County that requires the captain?"
Song Ci said tactfully, but his tone was full of vigilance.
As soon as Song Ci finished speaking, Nan Quan stood up, looked at Zhao Tian angrily, and attacked again:
"Sixth Prince, you also know that I have a bodyguard agency in Nanyang County. Mr. Qin and Mr. Song also asked me to help take care of the people of Nanyang County. I think, even if there is some small fight on the street, I can practice Nanquan
Those soldiers can also handle it, the Sixth Prince, I won’t bother you to ask the captain to come."
Zhao Tian burst out laughing when he saw that the three of them were facing a formidable enemy.
"Don't get me wrong, you three. The reason I asked Mr. Xiaowei to come here is actually to ask Mr. Xiaowei to cooperate with the county government in establishing the self-defense forces of each village."
Seeing that Song Ci and the others still looked hesitant, they pointed at Qin Shaobai and said, "About this matter, Mr. Qin and I had our first acquaintance yesterday. Mr. Qin, do you think so?"
Song Ci and Mr. Nan Quan all stared at Qin Shaobai. To be precise, they bit Qin Shaobai to death.
Qin Shaobai felt aggrieved. Yesterday I had been vetoing your proposal, Lord. It's better now. You said it as if I supported you.
Seeing Qin Shaobai hesitate to speak, Nan Quan brought a cup of tea to Zhao Tian.
"Your Majesty, it is a good thing for each village to establish a self-defense force, but it cannot be done in a day or two. Today is a happy day. If the common people see the captain coming with a large group of soldiers, they will
I don’t know what to think.”
"Yes, Mr. Nanquan is right." Song Ci rolled his eyes at Qin Shaobai and added, "Sixth Prince, you didn't leave in a day or two. We still have to go back to the county office to discuss such military matters.
That’s fine. Today, I just want to feel the joy of the people.”
Zhao Tian's face turned dark, and his hand holding the tea cup was secretly exerting force, so that the water in the tea cup was trembling.
Everyone lowered their heads and pretended to drink tea.
The air was as dull as ashes filled with sparks, and as soon as it moved, a raging fire would burst into flames.
"Yes, you are right."
Zhao Tian suddenly laughed.
"I'm worried. How can we talk about such an important matter in a restaurant in Wangxianglou? Now, we are all going out to drink porridge. If we leave a little later, the people may not even have a grain of porridge or rice left for us.
Already."
"Sixth Prince, let's go and see which of our two porridges is more popular. If I lose, you have to treat me to a nice drink to comfort my hurt heart."
Nan Quan said and laughed.
The flesh on the Sixth Prince's cheeks trembled, and he finally laughed: "Mr. Li, if you lose, you have to ask Mr. Qin for a drink, because my porridge is Mr. Qin's ingenious beauty.
My best friend, Miss Xiaolan, suffered."
"Okay, Brother Shaobai, your girl Xiaolan has such good cooking skills, but she never invites me to your home for dinner. Are you afraid that I, Nan Quan, will snatch Miss Xiaolan away?" Nan Quan hit Young Master Qin.
white.
Qin Shaobai screamed out in pain.
His shout made all three people in the room laugh.
"Let's go, everyone, go and have a bowl of porridge. This is peace porridge, happy porridge. You need to drink a big bowl of it."
Nanquan pulled Zhao Tian and walked out.
Qin Shaobai was about to follow, but was suddenly held back by Song Ci.
Song Ci's eyes were as cold as ice:
"You and the Sixth Prince went to inspect the villages last night? Why didn't you tell me about this?"
Song Ci pressed Qin Shaobai on the chair and asked, then looked at the Sixth Prince who was fighting with Nan Quan, and whispered: "From now on, whatever the Sixth Prince asks you to do, you have to think of a reason.
