Chapter 0187: Doubts

The special officials did not come for a long time, and Chen Mu decided to start work ahead of schedule. So the vigorous construction of the east city of Dunhuang began, the construction scene was huge, and the enthusiasm of the military and civilian labor was high.

Standing on the watchtower of the original Dongcheng, Chen Mu looked at the scene of labor in full swing and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

The funds were sufficient, the reputation of the Dunhuang generals was reliable, foreign labor continued to pour into Dunhuang, the urban population skyrocketed, and all walks of life developed at a very rapid speed.

The inns were full, the restaurants were full, and even the homes of ordinary residents began to partition rooms to rent out, and everyone in Dunhuang could make money.

As a result, the service sector has also improved significantly.

The most representative of the service industry is the green building, which has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

At this time, there are already three large green buildings in Dunhuang City, more than a dozen medium-sized, small ones that cannot be counted, and the pavilion girls who walk the streets and alleys to show up have also become a scene in Dunhuang City.

There are many people, and there is an upward trend in violence. In the face of rising brawls, Fu Yin Tangliu's opinion is to arrest one by one, thunder means, and deter Xiaoxiao. However, Chen Mu's opinion is that if the injury is less than a minor injury, no arrest will be approved, but a fine, and only those who do not pay the fine will be detained.

Later, it was found that Chen Mu's method was far better than Tang Liu's. In this way, anyone who can afford to pay the fine will not resist arrest with their lives, and it also increases the income of the government officials, and at the same time reduces the pressure on the prison, and in the long run, the crime rate is effectively controlled.

Tang Liu said that Chen Mu was a genius in governing the world, but Chen Mu said, I learned this, not I invented it.

Tang Liu asked which master he had learned from, and told me that I would also visit in the future.

Chen Mu said, a hermit in the deep mountains who did not want to disclose his name, and now I want to look for him, I am afraid that I will not be able to find him.

Tang Liu expressed deep regret.

Zhong Lixiang had already discovered that Chen Mu had a compassionate heart, and he was a bit blind if he didn't become a monk.

No, today Chen Mu walked the streets and alleys in civilian clothes again, and he actually took Zhong Lixiang, who was dressed as a man, to visit the Qinglou.

After shopping in Daqinglou, I walked around the streets and alleys to observe the red girls who were far away from their homes and their business was relatively cold.

Later, he asked the street pavilion chief and knew that these women could also eat well and have a surplus, so Chen Mu left with confidence.

In this regard, Zhong Lixiang couldn't cry or laugh, and he really didn't know what to say about Chen Mu. said that his mother was his mother-in-law, but he was the general of Dunhuang and the deputy general of Anxi, who had been on the battlefield and were beaten in the pile of dead people. But if you praise him for having compassion, you feel that this place is dirty and despicable. Most of these pavilion girls are lazy and hateful people, and there can be a few who are as gentle and elegant as Hanxiang Yulinglong.

Chen Muchang said that a big restaurant like Wanhualou is actually a star manufacturing factory. They produce big stars, of course, they can't be compared with these popular women in the market. However, the fate of the big star is also unlucky, and in front of the chaebol sons and masters, they are just a plaything. Therefore, you must start early, and you will be ruined if you are late.

"Zhongli, you see that these pavilion girls seem to like you more." Chen Mu smiled ill-willedly.

Zhong Lixiang's big eyes slanted, and he glanced at Chen Mu fiercely.

The girl's height has risen rapidly, and she is about to reach the tip of Chen Mu's nose, but her body is a little thinner, and the killer temperament on her body is getting stronger and stronger.

Seeing that Chen Mu was no longer in the mood to continue shopping, Zhong Lixiang turned around and left.

Chen Mu walked behind him: "Zhongli, do you also have Western Regions blood, why can't you tan no matter how you tan it." You run all day long, and the wind on the west side of the river can't dry you. ”

Hearing this, the girl smiled: "It's been a long time, and you just said this sentence." ”

Chen Muhan smiled.

Zhong Lixiang asked puzzledly, "Why did you bring me to this kind of place?" You think I haven't seen it before? ”

Chen Mu said: "What you see in the big restaurant is the upper class, and what you see in the streets and alleys is the downclass life. The one who best reflects the style of the times is actually this group of pavilion girls. In my opinion, Dunhuang City is not very rich, and Baixin has less money in his hands than I expected. ”

"How did you find out," Zhong Lixiang was even more puzzled: "Those street girls have a surplus, so they should be rich." ”

Chen Mu smiled bitterly and didn't speak.

Back in the work hall, turn left into the study, Zhong Lixiang did not enter the study, but sat in the spring sofa outside the general's living room.

"Spring sofa", this is a new thing invented by Chen Mu, and it is very comfortable to sit on it. It's a pity that Chen Mu is still not satisfied with this sofa, so he only made one. Because Zhong Lixiang liked it, he stayed, otherwise he would have been thrown out a long time ago.

Miss Zhongli was almost half-lying on the sofa, her eyes closed.

Seeing Chen Mu coming back, Hanxiang put a stack of documents in front of Chen Mu: "The Xuanjia Army is also recruiting, and it is said that thousands of people will come from Chang'an in a few days." So they had ten thousand more. Now the Xuanjia army has returned to participate in the construction of Dunhuang, and we didn't let them enter the city before, but now? ”

"Now is different from the past, now there is a tacit understanding between the two armies, and it will not be easy to cause trouble." Chen Mu rubbed his chin: "It's not easy to recruit these thousands of people now, and the Tang Clan Gate Valve is also frantically increasing troops. In order to snatch the quota of the five divisions, the two sons can be regarded as scheming. However, the recruitment speed is still much slower than that of the Xuanjia Army. ”

Hanxiang smiled: "People are rich." ”

Chen Mu smiled bitterly, then picked up the pen and began to write, thinking while writing, sometimes writing an article, feeling bad, tearing it up and writing it again.

Hanxiang knew that Chen Mu was writing relevant professional textbooks for the special manager, but she was a little unable to intervene in this, she had read the manuscripts written by Chen Mu, and some words looked jerky and difficult to understand, and she felt that she was still a student, and she didn't dare to comment indiscriminately.

"Hanxiang, bring your three female secretaries, copy the manuscripts I have written a few times, bind them into a book, and then start printing. In addition, let the three of them study more quickly, and in a few months, I will take the relevant content. If they are qualified, the three of them will go to the special office as female teachers in the future. Of course, the instructors can't all be women. Most of them are still men. You go to the exam paper and raise twenty people and let them study. After my assessment, as long as it is not very bad, it will be admitted to the college in the future. ”

Han Xiang frowned and smiled: "Does my uncle think the three of them are ugly and think it's an eyesore?" ”

Chen Mu was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "How can you say such a thing, I use it for my material, what does it have to do with my appearance?" ”

Hanxiang smiled silently.

After a while, Hanxiang said, "Uncle, my mother is really pregnant." ”

"Oh..."Chen Mu looked at Hanxiang's expression, she didn't seem to be very happy, and asked curiously, "What are you worried about?" ”

"Mother didn't dare to tell Dad."

"Why?"

Hanxiang's eyes moved, but he didn't say anything.

Chen Mu was puzzled for a while.

The first is the latest.
