"Zhou Thorn History, Wang County Order, you don't have to be polite!"

Outside the gate of Yifang County, Li Zexuan came to the front of a group of officials and said with a smile: "Benhou came to Lanzhou just to exterminate locusts, you don't have to worry about me, if you have official business, just go and be busy with official business!" ”

Li Zexuan is a pragmatic faction, and he doesn't like to engage in these vain formalisms, but Zhou Wenfang and them went out of the city to greet them out of good intentions, as the so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, he has no reason to blame the other party.

Zhou Wenfang's eyes flashed, and he looked a little surprised, but after a while, his expression returned to normal, and he bowed his hand respectfully: "Hou Ye is high-spirited and bright, dedicated to the public, and the officials admire!" ”

Speaking of this, he turned to look at the officials behind him, and said with a serious expression: "Did you all hear it?" If you have official business, go back to the yamen immediately, and there must be no mistakes~! ”

The state seat of Lanzhou is in Yifang County, so Zhou Wenfang's words were not only said to the subordinate officials of the Assassin's Mansion, but also to the officials of the county government of Yifang County.

"Yes!"

The more than thirty officials standing behind couldn't help but look at each other, and after a moment, they arched their hands and said in unison.

Zhou Wenfang pointed to the hundreds of people around him at this time, and said to Li Zexuan with a smile: "Hehe! Master Hou! These people spontaneously came to greet you after hearing the rumors, but they didn't let them come, and the officials couldn't drive them away! ”

Li Zexuan pursed his lips and looked around at the people who were looking at him expectantly, Li Zexuan said loudly: "Folks in Lanzhou, Benhou is here, so you don't have to worry about the locust plague anymore!" This is the sun, let's go back to dinner! This afternoon, the Celestial Chicken Brigade will go to the villages to start exterminating the locusts! ”

In fact, on the way they came, they also met a lot of enthusiastic people along the way, for the people's demands, of course Li Zexuan knew in his heart that at this time, the scorching sun was at noon, the sun was like fire, and it was almost like a sunburn, Li Zexuan had no nonsense, and he directly reassured the people in a few words!

"Thank you, Master Hou!"

"Thank you, Master Hou!"

Li Zexuan's voice was very loud, and the people around him almost heard it clearly, and when they heard this, they couldn't help but cheer loudly one by one, and they were grateful.

"Let's all go back to dinner!"

Li Zexuan looked kind.

After getting the desired reply from Li Zexuan, the people did not continue to stay, and left one after another satisfied.

"The Tianji Brigade is finally here! The locusts in our county should be wiped out soon, right? ”

"Of course, it is said that the Tianji Brigade only took more than two days to exterminate the locusts in Qizhou!"

"Good boy! So fast? ”

"Hey! If you want to say that we have to thank Master Han, do you know why the Tianji Brigade came directly to Lan after exterminating locusts in Qizhou? ”

"Why?"

"Because Master Han is the father-in-law of Yong'an Hou! The three villages of Liushu Village, Nanping Village, and Kaiyang Village were all bought by Yong'an Hou for Master Han at the beginning! Now that we have suffered a locust plague in Lanzhou, can Yong'an Hou not help? ”

"Oh! I remembered! It seems that there is such a thing! ”

"It is said that the households in these three villages are close to coal mines and iron mines, and they can earn a lot of wages every month just by working in the mines!"

"Who made the coal mine and iron mine belong to Yong'an Hou! Yong'an Hou is notoriously good to the people below! ”

Prior to this, although Li Zexuan had never been to Lanzhou, but in the land of Lanzhou, there were many people who had received Li Zexuan's favor, especially the people of Yifang County, because Li Zexuan not only had coal mines here, but also iron ore and aluminum mines, although mining would pollute the local environment, but since Han Lizheng came here, he has been using the method taught to him by Li Zexuan to treat sewage, so in half a year, the local environment has not been polluted much, but the people have earned a lot of money working in the mine!

"Master Hou! Xiaguan has prepared a thin wine in the house, there is no delicacies from the mountains and seas, just some ordinary homely meals, and I hope that the Hou Ye can appreciate it! ”

Outside the city gate, Li Zexuan and Han Lizheng exchanged a few words, and at this time, Zhou Wenfang stepped forward and arched his hand.

In fact, this luncheon was not just a commonplace, but just after seeing Li Zexuan's actions, Zhou Wenfang guessed that Li Zexuan should not like their extravagance and waste, so he changed the delicacies of the mountains and seas to a commonplace!

Li Zexuan nodded and said, "It's just right to be a homely meal!" Lao Bo Zhou Thorn Shi also prepared some light meals, heat-relieving soup and throat soup for the children! ”

Regarding Zhou Wenfang's personality, Li Zexuan heard Han Lizheng say before, this is a smart person who knows how to drill camps, but will not be too much to tie up with officials, this kind of person cannot simply be defined as corrupt officials, because he is not greedy, but only understands a little bit of the way to drill camps, compared to Wei Zheng, who is a straightforward and upright minister, under normal circumstances, people like Zhou Wenfang who can drill camps and know how to be flexible will mix better!

Therefore, Li Zexuan has neither a bad feeling nor too much good impression of Zhou Wenfang, and his father-in-law Han Tianhu is still on Zhou Wenfang's territory, so he doesn't need to let Zhou Wenfang not come to the stage for a trivial matter, so after thinking about it for a while, Li Zexuan still agreed to Zhou Wenfang's banquet!

………………………………

Under Li Zexuan's "exemplary leadership", the luncheon on the Assassin's Mansion ended quickly, it only took about half an hour, after lunch, Li Zexuan directly said goodbye, and then took a group of children to start exterminating locusts directly in addition to the county seat!

Well, of course, Han Ri is also following.

Along the way, not only the iron eggs stuck to Han Lizheng, but the children in Hanjiazhuang also like to surround Han Lizheng's side, one by one, "Lizheng Lizheng" non-stop, although now Han Tianhu is no longer in Hanjiazhuang, but the children did not treat him as an outsider, and walked all the way, leaving laughter and laughter all the way, so lively!

Looking at the chirping bear children around him, Han Tianhu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I didn't expect that these little bastards who could only play with mud and dig birds' nests at the beginning, because they learned the art of chicken control with Hu Ran and Hu Ran, but they became heroes who saved the common people!" ”

"Huh! It's not easy for them to be heroes! ”

Li Zexuan interjected at this time: "Eight days after the locust plague happened, these children have already traveled hundreds of miles! Many children have peeling on their backs, and the prickly heat on their bodies is one by one, and they can only sleep on their stomachs at night, I am sorry for these children, I made them suffer! ”

This season is almost the hottest time of the year, and he takes these children to run around and relieve disasters, in the eyes of others, they are heroes, but the price of this hero is too serious for these children, in just a few days, the children have been tanned a lot, Li Zexuan wants to say that there is no guilt, it is impossible!

"Xiao Xuan, don't say that!"

Han Lizheng said in a deep voice: "These children have suffered a little, but along the way, what they have seen and learned is enough for them to use for a lifetime!" It is their honor to follow you around to exterminate locusts! When they grow up, they'll be grateful to you! ”

Li Zexuan shook his head and did not answer.

Suddenly, Li Zexuan caught a glimpse of a particularly large pond in front of him, the terrain of the pond is low in the south and high in the north, the key is that its shape is very peculiar, the part near the north is built with stones one after another embankment, seeing this, Li Zexuan quickly reacted, he pointed to the pond and asked:

"That pond must be the sewage treatment tank that my father-in-law asked me to repair, right?"

At the beginning, Han Tianhu reported to Li Zexuan the serious problem of water pollution next to the iron mine and coal mine, Li Zexuan not only bought all the three Zhuangzi near the iron mine and coal mine, but also taught Han Tianhu some methods for treating sewage, one of which is this sewage filter tank!

Han Tianhu looked in the direction of Li Zexuan's finger, and then nodded: "That's right!" That's the sewage treatment tank! There are two more such pools near the iron mines, and after using this thing, the sewage has indeed become much less! Because of this, there are no more people who oppose our mining! ”

Li Zexuan nodded approvingly: "Hmm! Not bad! We can't just bury our heads in mining and ignore the feelings of the locals, otherwise we will end up with adult street rats shouted and beaten by everyone! That's probably our iron ore mine, right? ”

As he spoke, Li Zexuan pointed to a small hill in front of him, and it was vaguely seen that there were many people on the mountain.

Han Tianhu looked at it, and then replied, "Hmm! That's right! That is our iron mine, and it is also the largest iron mine in Lanzhou! Today, the iron mine is going to load and send a batch of ore to Lantian County, Fu Bin can't pull away, so he didn't come over, Xiaoxuan, do you want to go and have a look? ”

After pondering for a moment, Li Zexuan nodded and said, "Hmm! Of course you have to see! ”

Now there are more and more places where iron is used in the workshop, iron is needed for horse-drawn carriages, iron is also needed for bicycles, and iron is needed for weapons and armor, and this is still an astronomical amount, and now he has come to Yifang County, and he can go to the mine to see if he can expand the mining capacity!

…………………………

"Fubin! Come out, you kid! Look who's coming! ”

Coming to the mine, Han Li was shouting directly inside.

As soon as the words fell, a dark-skinned, thin young man walked out of the shed inside.

"Uncle Han? Master Hou! Master Hou, you're here! ”

The young man first said hello to Han Tianhu, and then couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Li Zexuan, and then hurriedly stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Master Hou, I know that you are going to Yifang County at noon, but I can't pull away at that time, so ......

This boy is Fubin! ”

Li Zexuan waved his hand and smiled: "It's okay!" You're doing the right thing, it's important to get down to business! There are so many people who greet me, and you're not the only one, are you? Hey! Your kid is tanned, and he's thinner than before, so it seems that he has suffered a lot here! Do you want me to transfer you back to Lantian County? ”

Not to mention anything else, just based on Fu Bin's dark and thin appearance, it means that he must have suffered something here. If he was white and fat now, Li Zexuan would wonder if this kid had been eating, drinking, and enjoying himself!

"Master Hou! I'm not bitter! I'm not bitter at all! ”

Hearing this, Fu Bin's head shook like a rattle, and he hurriedly said.

Han Tianhu smiled at this time: "Hehe! This kid fell in love with the daughter of someone else's master book, Xiao Xuan, you let him go back now, where is he willing? I guess if you just pick up a knife and drive him away in the back, he won't leave! ”

When Li Zexuan heard this, he couldn't help but say, "Oh? Fubin, you fell in love with the daughter of the main book? Okay! You kid! Do you want me to help you matchmaker? ”

Fu Bin didn't think about it, so he refused: "No need, Master Hou!" How can this little matter trouble you? Besides, she doesn't necessarily like me yet! ”

In the end, Fubin's face suddenly turned red like a monkey PG.

Li Zexuan is also a "person who has come over", how can he not see that this pair is about to be completed, he smiled and said: "Okay!" Then I won't interfere! But when you get married, you will go to drink the wedding wine! By the way, you kid has time to go back and see Fauber, he's getting older and older......"

When Fu Bin heard this, a trace of shame suddenly flashed on his face, and he nodded: "Hmm! When I'm done with this, I'll go back! ”

Fu Bo has no children, and he has always regarded Fu Bin as his own son, and Fu Bin knows this love very well.

Li Zexuan nodded, didn't dwell on this matter, he said with a straight face: "Xiaobin, how is the current output of the iron mine?" ”

As soon as he got down to business, Fu Bin's face immediately became serious, and he hurriedly replied: "Master Hou, now this iron mine can dig more than 5,000 catties of ore a day, and under normal circumstances, every three days, I have to send someone to send a batch of iron ore from the warehouse!" By the way, last month I found that the ore deep underground is in better condition, and in greater quantities! I had people dig a mine shaft four or five feet long, intending to mine the ore from below! In this way, our iron ore mine can at least double the amount of iron ore! ”

Ancient people mining can not be like modern people can dig directly into the ground dozens of meters, at this time due to the machinery is not advanced, the technology is not sound, most of the mining is only the ore near the surface, Fu Bin can come up with the method of using the mine to dig directly from the bottom, it is also a new way!

It's just that his strange way is easy to get into danger!

"What? Mine? ”

Li Zexuan's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Where is this mine?" Take me to see it! ”

Seeing Li Zexuan's face, Fu Bin had a bad premonition in his heart, but he couldn't think of what he had done wrong for a while, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Master Hou, the mine is over there!" You come with me! ”

"Hmm!"

Under the leadership of Fubin, Li Zexuan came to a place with a diameter of more than one meter and a depth of ... There is a bottomless pit, and there is a rotating device similar to the top of the well, which should be used to pull people or goods.

"Master Hou, do you think there is something wrong with this mine?"

After a moment, Fu Bin asked tentatively.

Li Zexuan pondered for a long time and said, "Xiaobin, it's very good that you can think of this method, but this method is risky!" ”
