Chapter Eighty-Seven: Four County Orders

It's easy to say, but it's not easy to do, Xu Qing meditated all night, and he didn't even draw a picture. In the end, I wanted to improve the bullet first, but I just came up with a theoretically feasible solution.

That is, make a cylinder out of thick paper and fill it with fire. The medicine went in, and the metal bullet was sealed at one end of the cylinder with glue or something, and the other end was also sealed.

The use is, just in the breech of the gun directly loaded, and then fired.

But the problem is that Xu Qing doesn't know the fire he is using now. The medicine cannot be fired mechanically. When I was a child, everyone played a small firecracker "smashing firecracker", and when you threw it on the ground, it could go off. That is, that kind of fire. Medicine, it can be fired, Xu Qing seems to be able to only be ignited with fire.

One more, even if it is matched with that kind of fire. Medicine, Xu Qing does not have a firing device in his hand, such as a firing needle, and he also needs to "make something out of nothing", this kind of thing is much more complicated than the flint.

Freezing three feet, not a day's cold, even if Xu Qing knows the general shape, there are still many details that cannot be handled. The next day, early in the morning, the oxen grazing came to report that the follow-up convoy had reached a distance of thirty miles, and that it would arrive tomorrow after a little trimming there.

When Xu Qing heard this, he remembered Xu Qi's little girl. From Xu Qing taking Luo Xiuxiu into his arms until now, Xu Qi has always been angry with Xu Qing, and the four major vinegar jars belong to the acid of this altar. Later, she simply didn't go with Xu Qing, but left behind and walked with the convoy.

Now that the convoy has come, I guess I will be able to see her soon, and I don't know if I am still angry. Xu Qing thought that Duan Hongchen entrusted Xu Qi to him, thinking that Xu Qing was in Cangzhou anyway, and after the sea route was opened, it would be convenient to come and go. But in the blink of an eye, Xu Qing was transferred back, and I am afraid that he will not go to Cangzhou again in this life.

I don't know how Duan Hongchen knows, what do you think? Abducted?

Xu Qing smiled, wanting to go and pick up Xu Qi so that he could help the vinegar jar up. At this time, Zhang Forestry also came to report, saying that the county commanders of Shangluo, Luonan, Danfeng, and Lushi counties were visiting, and there was also a county male and a small lord among the four counties.

In fact, the news of Xu Qing's return to home had already reached the ears of the Luonan County Commander, the previous Luonan County Commander, the shrewd old man had already taken office, and he was the new one. Originally, after he learned that Xu Qing came back, he was going to come to pay his respects immediately, but his background was not strong enough to give any heavy gifts. On weekdays, he relied on the surrounding county orders to help each other, and he also knew that the county orders of the three surrounding counties admired Xu Qing, so he dragged on for a few days and called those people to come to pay homage to Xu Qing.

On the one hand, it can be regarded as a small favor to the surrounding counties and county orders, and on the other hand, you can discuss what gifts to give, so that your share is not too short.

At this time, the four county magistrates, as well as three barons, and one county were all parked at the gate of Hongshan Town. Behind them, a string of people carrying the boxes were carried by a string of flat poles. These are all gifts, don't look at the many things, in fact, they are some cloths, and even quilts, which are really not worth much. It's like buying snacks to watch people, buying more potato chips or something, filling the bag to look magnificent!

As soon as they heard that Xu Qing was here, they sent someone to report it first.

Xu Qing shook his head, these people came to visit, I'm afraid they also have something to trust, right? When the time comes, it's not good to agree, and it's not good not to agree, there will always be a dilemma.

However, Xu Qing still tidied up his clothes and went out to greet him.

At the gate of Hongshan Town, Xu Qing took Yang Wen and a few people to graze out, and the four county magistrates and county men came out of the sedan chair and called the uncle.

Of course, Xu Qing was going to be "flattered", saying that everyone was busy with official business, and they took the time to see the boy, and they really loved the boy.

After a period of greetings, Xu Qing invited everyone to sit in the house, and Yang Wen went to receive the gift-giver.

"I wonder why Lord Xu suddenly came back this time?" Luonan County sits in the east.

"Oh, not yet summoned by the Holy Lord?" Xu Qingnan sat down and said: "Summoned last month, the Holy Lord knew that the sky was cold and the ground was freezing, so he let the official rest in Luonan for a while. ”

"Oh, hehe, Lord Xu has received such a great favor, he is really blessed, and his official fortune is prosperous." The county commanders of Shangluo, Lushi, and Danfeng sat facing east.

Xu Qing said with a smile: "Where and where, we are the officials for the people, for the saints, for the world, whether they are prosperous or not, the officials are the same......

"Lord Xu, Uncle Xu......" The county took a sip of tea soup and said: "Uncle Xu has to be named Uncle Xu at a young age, it's really amazing, I don't know if the master is ......"

That county is an old man, seeing Xu Qing so young and noble, he can't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, thinking that Xu Qing is just under someone's protection.

At this time, everyone looked up at Xu Qing. For them, it doesn't matter whether Xu Qing walks through the back door or not, what matters is whose back door Xu Qing goes to, and whether they can blow the wind in that back door. These four county orders, how much have I heard about Xu Qing, they are pro-people officials, they are more rational after listening to Xu Qing's affairs, they don't think Xu Qing is amazing, but they feel how powerful Xu Qing's background is.

Xu Qing smiled and said: "I don't hide it from you, but this official has no teacher, but he is a good brother with Grandpa Cheng and Grandpa Xu, and he can also talk to Master Du and Master Xiao." ”

Everyone present gasped, I just said that you are Jiang Ziya, but you said that you are Yuan Shi Tianzun, how can you not be shocked?

In addition to being shocked, the four county magistrates were happy, they came today, isn't it just to climb the relationship and enter the circle, the bigger Xu Qing's background, the more valuable the gift they gave today.

Danyang County Ling was the first to come back to his senses, and said in a sharp voice: "It turns out that Uncle Xu is so noble, I don't know, please Haihan." ”

Compare each other's high and low, compare clear and easy to speak, stop at the point, and do not offend anyone.

Xu Qing also smiled, now in the hall, it should be his momentum that has won. This is a prelude, and before we get down to business, we need to talk nonsense.

talked about the fields, population, and lawsuits of each county last year, and the Luonan County Order told other counties about the method of castration, and talked about the lack of snow last winter and a little locust plague in the spring. However, the locust plague is mild, so there is no need to worry, and this year there will be heavy snowfall, and next year should be a good year. Ruixue Zhaofeng year, because the insects froze to death. Xu Qing told these county orders that if locust larvae are found, they should organize people to eliminate them in time.

The county magistrates asked, what are the locust larvae?

Xu Qing said that locusts are jumping bugs, and jumping bugs are locusts.

Then they asked, "How can a hopper be a thing that can't fly, but locusts fly all over the sky."

Xu Qingzhi shook his head and said, like a tadpole has no legs and a frog has legs!

The county commanders nodded suspiciously, and they were skeptical.

The county commander of the Lu family coughed, and asked with a smile: "Uncle, you have many acquaintances in Chang'an, and you know all the grandfathers, my lord, and you are favored by the emperor, isn't it simple?" ”

Xu Qingxin said, talking about the right thing, the gossip was over, he nodded and said: "There are many people who know me, but I am very light-hearted...... boy."

The county commander of the Lu family sighed and said: "Uncle Xu, don't be presumptuous, you are still so modest, how can I deal with myself?" ”
