Chapter 12: The Heart-Worn Matchmaker
"Nine-striped insects?"
Hearing this name, Nan Ke subconsciously thought of some country ruffians who were idle all day long.
Even if you give yourself a nickname, it's so unclassy.
He was not prepared to delve into it.
But at this moment, Jiao Jin said again: "Yes, that nine-tattooed insect Shi Jin can also be regarded as the number one person in us." It's the bandits around him, and when they hear his name, they have to take a detour. ”
"Shi Jin?" Nan Ke was stunned for a moment, and instantly thought of Shi Jin, who studied under Wang Jin.
But the time and place are not quite right, how could he become a villager with Jiao Ting? And also changed the nickname?
"Since it's a nickname for outsiders, why don't you call it a nine-striped insect instead of a louder one?" Nan Ke asked suspiciously.
Jiao Jin laughed when he heard this: "Grandpa Guo, don't you know, that Shi Jin originally invited an embroidery master to help him tattoo nine dragons on his body, but the master's skills are not good." After the stabbing is done, how do the villagers look like long worms? So they called him the nine-striped insect one after another.
For this reason, he beat the embroiderer well. If it weren't for the villagers who stopped and said, 'It doesn't matter what you stab, as long as you are strong, no one will dare to underestimate you', then the embroidery master is afraid that it will be difficult to fall behind." ”
After hearing this, a layer of fine sweat broke out on Nan Ke's head for no reason.
This is a living social practice lesson, on the importance of basic skills.
"I see! How does Shi Jin's skills compare to Jiao Ting? Nan Ke asked again.
"That guy is definitely no match for my brother." Jiao Jin said triumphantly: "My younger brother is born with divine power, and he has few opponents. ”
"But when Grandpa Guo fought with the surname Qian, he didn't let that Pan Feng beat him." The cripple muttered inophinistically.
Jiao Ting said unexpectedly: "If it was before, I might not be his opponent, but now if I fight against the Nine Tattoo Worm again, I should be able to defeat him steadily." ”
At this time, Nan Ke also knew it, thinking that this Shi Jin's force value should be on par with the original Jiao Ting.
When even stretched his waist and said: "Do you know, who in Yongping County has a high reputation and a good handwriting?" ”
"Not only can you write, but the popularity is high, this Yongping County is not only you, but you are the county magistrate, right?" Jiao Jin thought for a while and said.
"It's not good to know the county, you have to find a representative of the people, the kind that doesn't have an official position." Nan Ke said again.
"I know who, so there's only one person who best meets your needs."
Afterwards, they came to Ranfu in the south of the city.
The owner of Ran Mansion is called Ran Chunrong, who is a winemaker and seller.
His family's liquor business is one of the best even in Wubo County, so Ran Chunrong can indeed be called a wealthy gentleman in Yongping County.
And this person is gentle, kind to people, and has an excellent reputation in Yongping County.
If he is asked to help him write a payment document, in the hearts of the people, the credibility will be much higher.
"I'm sorry for you to report it, just say that I, Nanke, have something to do and want to see Ran Yuanwai." Nan Ke said softly.
When the porter heard this, although he was not happy with 10,000 faces, he did not dare to slack off.
I had to answer and ran towards the courtyard.
It wasn't long before a man with black and white hair trotted out.
"Grandpa Guo is here, and the little old man is disappointed, and he hopes to atone for his sins." Before Ran Chunrong arrived, he said.
Nan Ke smiled when he heard this: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm here to bother you today, in fact, I have something to ask for." ”
"Grandpa Guo really doesn't hide it, I haven't received the payment for the batch of goods delivered to Wu Bojun a few days ago, and I have to buy new grain and wine recently, so I don't have much money on hand......"
When Ran Chunrong said this, his voice was extremely low, for fear that he would accidentally offend the young Dingguo Gong in front of him.
Jiao Jin on the side was a little unhappy when he saw this, and just as he was about to scold, Nan Ke stopped him.
"Ran Yuanwai, I came to you today to ask you to help me write a payment document, not to ask you for ......relief," Nan Ke said with a normal face.
"What payment?" Ran Chunrong asked.
Nan Ke smiled and said, "Ran Yuanwai, are you going to talk to me right here?" ”
"Grandpa Guo is sluggish, sluggish! Please follow me. Only then did Ran Chunrong show embarrassment and introduce Nan Ke and his party into the mansion.
After the guests and hosts sat down and served tea, Ran Chunrong asked again: "Grandpa Guo, what is the matter with the payment you just said?" ”
"I also feel that bandits are rampant around Yongping Mansion, which is not conducive to the development of local people's livelihood, so I am ready to recruit a guard to deal with all these unstable factors around.
I thought about asking Ran Yuanwai to help me write a Zhang Jiaowen. Nan Ke looked at Ran Chunrong with a smile.
Ran Chunrong hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and then asked: "Didn't this list of bandits be done by the county magistrate in the past?" I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate. ”
"Then there are a lot of posts in Pang Zhi County, but how many people take it seriously?" Nan Ke snorted softly.
Because of the special environment of the Guang Dynasty, the power of the magistrates in these fiefs was very small.
Usually he deals with some trivial things that the vassals don't want to pay attention to, and he can't be the master of the real big things.
More often, the local magistrate and county guard are more like the royal inspectors sent by the royal family.
And these vassals are the real emperors of the soil.
What is the country, what is the public.
Literally, it means the head of a country.
If it weren't for Nan Ke's previous bad reputation, how could Ran Chunrong dare to push back when he saw him?
"So, I have to write this paper?" Ran Chunrong sighed.
"What's the matter, there is something unspeakable outside Ran Yuan." Nanke asked rhetorically.
Ran Chunrong sighed lightly when he heard this, and said: "After all, Xiao Lao'er is a businessman, and he has to ship goods back and forth.
If you help Grandpa Guo you write a payment document, it's okay if you don't go to suppress the bandits, at least you won't offend those strong people, if you beat them up, these people will take revenge on Xiao Lao'er, and Xiao Lao'er will be in trouble. ”
"Then make them cry and scared in one go! So that they don't dare to think anything else. Nan Ke said viciously.
After all, at this stage, he had to do something to wash away the stigma he had before.
And the suppression of bandits is naturally the best choice.
Grandpa Guo said so, and the little old man had no choice but to do it. It's just that the little old man has a request, and I hope that Grandpa Guo can agree. Recently, there is a group of strongmen named Ge Dadi, who are always pestering me, asking me to marry my little girl Yingying to him, otherwise I will cut off my route to transport wine, so that my wine will never enter Yongping County again.
I hope you can help solve this problem. Ran Chunrong said with an embarrassed face.
"Drop! The Musou system triggers a random task [Hard-working matchmaker].
Gejia Village Ge Dadi has been in love with Ran Yingying for a long time, please match them to become a couple, the task period is three days, and the task completion rewards attribute points 2.
Fail the mission and get the system's contempt once. ”
Hearing this sudden system prompt, Nan Ke fell into a dilemma.
