Chapter 225: Comparing Yourself to a Stone
Liu Hao and He Qiang glanced at each other, as if they were making eye contact, but they were discovered by Chen Zheng.
"You two don't play tricks on me, if you dare to lie to me, you don't have to be a fast hand tomorrow, just go to the port to work as a coolie." Chen Zheng said angrily.
The two were startled and didn't dare to play any more tricks.
Liu Hao thought for a while and said: "Your lady has great martial arts, so usually, I can't look down on our people to do things, only Yang Xu can get a little into her eyes." ”
Chen Zheng frowned and said, "You mean to say that this Yang Xu's martial arts are also very high, and my wife is in danger?" ”
"Ah no, Yang Xu's kung fu is not as high as your lady, Master Chen can rest assured." He Qiang hurriedly said with relief.
"How do you know? Did the two of them compete? Chen Zheng asked.
Liu Hao shook his head and said, "There is no competition, but we can all see that Yang Xu is quite afraid of your lady, and she avoids her every time." ”
Hearing this, Chen Zheng's heart was slightly relieved, as long as the other party is not as good as his own lady, it is still not too dangerous.
"You men, can you trust a woman to arrest the fugitive?" Chen Zheng asked rhetorically.
He Qiang smiled and said, "Master Chen, look at what you said, what's wrong with the woman?" Is it weaker than men? At least your lady is much better than us. ”
Liu Hao nodded, and also agreed: "It's not much stronger, it's too much stronger!" If we go together, we will definitely be holding back. ”
"Look at your worthless looks." Chen Zheng was a little speechless.
People themselves admit that they can't do it, how can others ask for it?
Liu Hao and He Qiang didn't feel sorry for Chen Zheng's words at all, and smiled like no one else.
Chen Zheng was helpless and said: "Tomorrow I will tell you Kuaishou's head catcher, if my lady has a little accident, none of you will think about it!" ”
"Well, I'll get it to you." Liu Hao said with a hippie smile.
Chen Zheng looked at Liu Hao's appearance, and suddenly had an urge to beat someone, with this kind of person, he really couldn't get angry.
So, Chen Zheng no longer wasted time here, waved his long sleeves, and turned away.
Liu Hao, who was behind him, shouted towards Chen Zheng's back: "Master Chen, come and play often when you have time!" ”
He Qiang was behind Liu Hao, flicked his brain, and said, "Everyone is gone, what are you shouting?" ”
After playing, He Qiang hurriedly sat back in his place, looked at a few peanuts in the saucer, and quickly picked them up and sent them to his mouth.
Liu Hao was flicked coldly, it really hurts! Tears almost flowed out, and when he turned around and saw that the few peanuts left on the plate on the table had been eaten by He Qiang, the tears couldn't stop flowing.
He Qiang looked up at Liu Hao's appearance, and said that he had just played harder, and hurriedly said, "Mouse, as for it?" I just flicked it gently, and I still cried. ”
Liu Hao was embarrassed to admit that he cried tears in distress when he saw that the peanuts were gone, so he had to follow He Qiang's words and said: "Brother Qiang, you are too strong!" Also, you are not allowed to call me a mouse in the future, I don't like this nickname. ”
He Qiang nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, mouse." I'll keep an eye out for it later. ”
……
Chen Zheng returned home with some trepidation, and the waiting in the room was still on, making him think that everything before was an illusion.
However, when the door was opened, the empty bed showed that everything was true just now, and his wife went to catch the spy Yang Xu.
At this moment, although Chen Zheng's stomach was still a little hungry, he no longer had the heart to find food.
After washing up casually, Chen Zheng blew out the lamp and candles, untied his clothes, and lay down on the bed.
After two days of lingering, Chen Zheng was lying on the boat alone at this time, to be honest, he was really a little uncomfortable.
While thinking about his mother-in-law and dreaming wildly, Chen Zheng slowly fell asleep.
The next day, Chen Zheng woke up very early.
This is not because of Chen Zheng's good habit of getting up early, but because he can't sleep well, and in the daytime, when there is a little movement outside, he wakes up.
Of course, there are reasons for being hungry.
I didn't eat dinner yesterday, and I walked back and forth from Jiuquwan Dao County a few times, and I also made a trebuchet in the middle, and my physical strength was very serious.
Therefore, early in the morning, Chen Zheng felt hungry.
After a night, Chen Zheng also accepted the fact that Yue Xiaorong left the office, and the most important thing at present is how to resist the attack of the pirates the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
casually found a breakfast stall, Chen Zheng asked for a bowl of salted tofu brain, and told the store not to put coriander, and then asked for two more meat fire, while it was hot, snorting and eating.
After eating, Chen Zheng remembered that he had agreed with the scribe today to hand over the requisitioned people at Jiuquwan Harbor, so he called a carriage and sent him to Jiuquwan.
After arriving at Jiuquwan Harbor, Chen Zheng first went to the dock and found that after one night, the craftsmen had built four trebuchets, and the efficiency should be okay.
After getting acquainted with the craft in the past two days, it is possible that the speed of manufacturing will be even faster, so that when the pirates attack, there will be enough trebuchets to provide powerful destructive power.
After reinstructing in some important points, Chen Zheng walked in the direction of the port.
From a distance, Chen Zheng saw a large group of people, gathered in the port, densely packed, and it was very uncomfortable to watch.
Chen Zheng walked over, and some people with sharp eyes saw him at a glance and shouted: "Master Chen is here, Master Chen is here!" ”
After walking in front of the people, Chen Zheng waved his hand and said: "Folks, there is some work in the port at present, and you need everyone to help you do it, and the salary is a lot. ”
"Master Chen is also out of sight, your work is our work!"
"That's right, if it weren't for Master Chen, my wife and daughter would have starved to death, you are our savior!"
"Whatever you need us to do, you can tell us!"
Xiao Zan and Li Shuang also came to Chen Zheng's side, Xiao Zan looked at the reactions of the people, and whispered: "Brother Chen, I think in this Dongyang County, your reputation is definitely the highest. ”
"How dare you? With Brother Xiao and the county magistrate Zhuyu in front, it is just a stone below. Chen Zheng said modestly.
Xiao Zan didn't understand and asked, "Stone? What does that mean? ”
Chen Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Down there is a stone in Dongyang County, where you need it, throw it wherever you need it!" ”
"Haha, Brother Chen's metaphor is really ingenious, in the future, my son may also throw this stone to see how powerful it is!" Xiao Zan said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
