Chapter 10: The Disciples of the Viper Forest

Wang Lanfeng didn't come back at night, and there are no mobile phones or anything like that in this era, so I don't know why.

This is not the first time, Zhang Zhu and Wang Lanling said a few words and went back to sleep.

She went to the canteen to cook by herself, and it was a very ordinary sweet potato noodle and salty bun.

It's not that round bun, it's a rectangular three-layer salty bun with some salty sauce inside.

Zhang Zhu ate one by himself and left three for Wang Lanfeng.

This world goes to bed too early, and sleeps under the covers when it gets dark.

I don't know what I ate today, I can't sleep with my hair tossing and turning, and I miss a woman.

I finally fell asleep in a daze, but I was woken up hungry in the middle of the night.

Although the chess and card room in the fort was definitely still open, Wang Lanling didn't want to go over.

When he barely managed to make it white in the holes in the wall, Wang Lanling put on cotton pants and a cotton jacket early in the morning.

"Sister-in-law, I have something to do when I go out, and I may not come back at night."

Zhang Zhu was still sleeping, and when he heard it, he said in a daze: "Try to come back as soon as possible." ”

Wang Lanling closed the door and ran out after getting dressed, and went to the toilet by the way.

There are more people going to the toilet in the morning, and there are queues......

Fortunately, there are no mobile phones in this world, and many people are still people who have to work, so they don't ink.

Walking out of the outer courtyard of the fort, Wang Lanling saw a carriage waiting for someone.

This is a shuttle bus from Wangjiapu, which picks up those who work in the county town to and from work.

There are shopkeepers in shops, and there are also clansmen who go to the countryside to deal with things, or employees who work in various departments.

In the county, there are not only the Yamen and the Dung Division, but also the Construction Division, the Urban Defense Division, the Post Station, the Guanshi Division, the Cangdian Office, the Civil Dictionary Division, and the Water Affairs Division......

The world is very tightly regulated, and it is the kind of system that would rather not develop than centralize.

Wang Lanling didn't want to rub the car, so he walked along the strange building market on the second floor of various small buildings and walked to the place where he went to work.

Not long after leaving, Wang Lanling saw a dung man carrying a basket and holding a wooden spoon and bamboo shovel.

The dungman is a woman with long hair, and she uses not a spoon for a dung man, but something like a horsewhip.

The combination of bamboo sticks + wattles makes Wang Lanling particularly strange.

She seemed to notice Wang Lanling, but she didn't care about it and continued to look for things nearby.

Soon she found her target, a piece of dung......

It's not human dung, according to the rules, those who dare to throw water out of the street will be beaten on the street, and if they can't find the criminals, then the nearest nearby merchant will be beaten.

This rule is common throughout the country, and the crime at the feet of the Son of Heaven is even more serious, and if you catch someone, you will drown directly in the dung pit.

It was dog droppings like human excrement, and the woman walked over and put the basket on the ground, which had many loops of hemp rope, and with her right hand she put the whip on her head, like a viper zigzag forward, and punched it with a swing of her tail.

Wang Lanling walked over, "Isn't it more convenient for you to use a long wooden spoon or stick?" ”

The woman raised her head, revealing a vicissitudes of life, the hair in front of her face was messy, and the black hair was hidden in the white hair, which made people feel even more indifferent and vicissitudes.

Her eyes were also that kind of numb eyes, and when she saw Wang Lanling, a descendant, she said indifferently: "It's your business~"

Wang Lanling was not angry with this forty or fifty-year-old woman, and said: "I am the new director of the Big Dung Division, Tian Yuanfang is my subordinate, are you all martial arts masters?" Why do I feel that there are so many people around me who know martial arts? ”

This feeling has been there since yesterday, whether it is on the street or at work, except for Wangjiabao, Wang Lanling feels that there are martial arts masters everywhere.

Hearing Tian Yuanfang's name, the woman became much more polite, and said: "I heard it in the morning, it turned out to be you, my lord, I offended just now, the sinner used to be a disciple of the poisonous snake forest, because I used to use the whip, I didn't change it, I will definitely use a stick in the future!" ”

Wang Lanling still didn't understand, "Why do we have a lot of martial arts masters here, I think you are also a master, why are you willing to do this kind of dirty work?" ”

The woman quickly said in a panic: "It's not dirty, it's not cheap, I'm picking up field fertilizer here, and I'll sell it to a nearby vegetable seller when I get a basket, and I can replace half a basket of rotten leaves, and I make a lot of money." ”

Wang Lanling said: "You don't want to do something else? ”

The woman bent down and said respectfully: "There is only low-grade fertilizer here on the street, ordinary people's homes are medium fertilizer, those big families eat well, and the lower ones are high-grade fertilizers with oil and water, the price is higher, and there are many people guarding it, how can it be my turn." ”

Wang Lanling felt that this world was becoming more and more mysterious, maybe he was not grounded, and he didn't realize that this was such a good errand.

But suddenly I thought about it, and there is no Internet, no live broadcast, and no factory recruiting people everywhere in this world.

Washing clothes and cooking are all done by their own families, and the eunuchs themselves have their own serfs, and no matter how poor they are, there are also those poor relatives who have defected.

He didn't know about places like the Construction Division, but on the one hand, the world urgently needed advanced products, and on the other hand, it was very harsh on labor, whether it was a squire or an official nobleman, they were all enclosing land and keeping slaves.

Most people use one penny as two cents, the county seat is better, and the landlords in the countryside do not wear good clothes and do not eat meat, so they desperately save money.

Constantly sucking blood, constantly hoarding wealth, and then constantly buying domestic servants.

After realizing that it was not easy to find a job, Wang Lanling understood this woman's thoughts.

"Okay, you go ahead." Wang Lanling said goodbye to the woman and continued to walk towards the big dung division.

The woman watched Wang Lanling walk away, and continued to walk forward.

Her whip is so powerful that she doesn't have to go near any places at all, and the whip in her hand is like a tentacle, enclosing things in corners or on the side of the road.

It was obviously winter, and those things that should have been frozen on the ground just rolled off naturally when they were touched by the whip.

This technique is not difficult, and in her heyday, she could open the sharp melon seeds on the tofu with the whip in her hand!

***

When Wang Lanling approached the Big Dung Division, he saw several people gathered at the door of the Big Dung Division.

The door of the official family opens late, which is common knowledge in any world.

As soon as he took a few steps closer, several men with hot mouths and noses looked this way.

Chen Zhiqing quickly walked over, clasped his fists at Wang Lanling and said, "Lord Wang! I came with three other families. ”

"Well, you've been waiting for a long time." Wang Lanling took out the change saved from yesterday's county order to invite dinner from his pocket, "You haven't eaten yet, it's freezing this day, you can buy some camellia and bean cakes with this money, just four people, everyone will go into the house to eat and talk." ”

Wang Lanling took out a few coins, one dime and five cents, all of which were left over from yesterday's early purchase.

As for yesterday's dollar coin, he intends to keep it in his hands.
