"All of them, backwards—turn!"
"All of them, turn left!"
"Walking in unison......"
"Running Forward ......"
On the small school field of Xiaonangou, the engineering apprentices who are taking physical education classes are being trained by Chen Erkui. Chen Erkui is a former member of the Chen family's 'martial arts team', and was stabbed in the stomach by a fire. People like him, including those with disabilities, according to the practice of the Chen family, there are two ways out, one is to be raised by the Chen family, and the other is to participate in the Chen family's industry.
If you can't do heavy work, then do it easily, if you can't be a shopkeeper, then go to be an accountant, and if you can't do it, then do a purchase.
But Chen Erkui belongs to a special species that can't be purchased well, and he can't fit a number in his brain, and his brain hurts when he sees the ledger. For people like him, the Chen family can only throw him back to Xiaonangou and occupy a position in Xiaonangou's escort team.
Now he was hired by Chen Ming to be a physical education teacher in engineering, of course, the name is not like that, the current Chinese teacher is still a very sacred title, Chen Erkui is called teaching.
By the way, don't look at the names of Chen Erkui and Chen Erbao, there is no blood relationship between them. Chen Erkui's eldest brother is called Chen Dakui, and Chen Erbao's eldest brother is called Chen Dabao.
Chen Ming just taught Chen Erkui a few very simple movements, far from letting him do recruit training: stand upright, take a break, look to the right, walk in unison, run in unison, and stand upright.
This is the consciousness that Chinese teenagers in the 21st century have been instilled little by little in their long school career, so the large collection of playgrounds when Chinese middle school students do radio gymnastics can make foreigners dumbfounded.
The speed and neat queue, those who don't know think it's the army.
Engineering students can't be called students, students are the title of scholars, and they are just a wave of apprentices in the eyes of the entire Chen family. In the future, the position can only be buried in the gold and silver books, and the copper business.
These children's adaptability is not bad, physical education class is held every two days, and it has only been a few days, and they are already decent when they stand in line. I also learned to line up to eat every day, and I also learned to tidy up housekeeping before getting up in the morning to run exercises.
Of course, the quilt cannot be folded into tofu blocks, but it must be neat and neatly dressed.
In just ten days, the spirit of these children has been renewed. Unconsciously, the small family spirit of these children of the Zhuang family has also dissipated a lot.
Today's school grounds are covered with a layer of snow, but physical education class is still to be held. In the minds of these children, PE class is one of the few times in their new life when they can relax, and after the beginning of PE class, they have at least three-quarters of the time left to play. Although the venue can only be limited to the school grounds.
Chen Ming prepared a soccer ball for them, blown with ox cells, and sewn with a thin layer of leather on the outside, which was the method of making Keju leather balls in the Song Dynasty, and now it is also the best way Chen Ming can think of to make balls.
With modern football rules as the regulations, it is also a loss that Chen Ming was a fan in his previous life, and it is not difficult to formulate the rules.
As the world's number one sport in the 21st century, Chen Ming believes that the charm of football is absolutely high, but he also does not believe that everyone will like football, just like his parents in his previous life. Prefer basketball and badminton.
It's just that in this era of lack of entertainment, the emergence of football soon caused a sensation in Xiaonangou. The engineering students only played twice in the school field, and the young children of the Chen family in Xiaonangou and the craftsmen in the workshop started playing.
Chen Ming then launched basketball again, which was also warmly welcomed.
Even the old people stood on the edge of the school yard with a smile against the cold wind in the mountains and watched the excitement. And this football and basketball soon spread from Xiaonangou to Tumenji. Chen Erbao's group likes to play these two sports that can vent their exuberant energy. And because of the win or loss of the game, he quickly thought of opening the gambling plate, when Chen Ming returned to Tumenji from Xiaonangou, the gambling plate had already become a trend in Tumenji.
Chen Ming is not a moral cleaner, so gambling is gambling, and he doesn't care about this. Chen Ming is concerned about the affairs of the mastermind behind the scenes, the battle where Chen Erbao led people to collide with Qingtiaoling, Qingtiaoling did not die five at all, but fifteen died, three were arrested, and only four people fled into the mountains and forests in embarrassment.
There are a total of 22 people in Qingtiaoling, and there are not many people from the Chen family, only 21 people. But the latter has a cuirass and a shotgun, and the steel knife and steel gun [gun head] in his hand are in his hand, and the armament value is thrown off the ten streets of Qingtiaoling. The manpower of the two sides was equal, but the result of the battle was a defeat and defeat at Qingtiao Ridge.
The Chen family captured 18 people, and the price they paid was only three people who were not seriously injured.
Just like the Chen family thinks, Qingtiaoling, who suffered a big loss, really couldn't hit the Chen family to take revenge in a short period of time, so he attacked the initiator behind the scenes.
"Second uncle, whose family is it?" Chen Ming looked at the face of the second uncle, and the tone he said, and felt that the mastermind behind the scenes should have been caught. It's just that it can be tricky.
"The Guan family in Zhuge Temple Town!"
"Zhuge Temple Town?" Chen Ming frowned, he had an impression of this place, "It's from Baofeng County, on the edge of Pingxi Lake!" ”
Pingxi Lake is the Baiguishan Reservoir in the 21st century. Zhuge Temple Town is the location of the urban area after the establishment of Pingdingshan City. When Chen Ming looked at the map at this time, he deliberately paid attention to that place.
"That's the place. The Guan family is the home of the eunuchs, and Guan Lin, the second son of the old lady of the Guan family, is the person who raised the two subjects [Qianlong 24 years], and is now teaching in Lanyang County, Kaifeng Prefecture. Mrs. Guan's father is a third-class jinshi of [Yongzheng first year] Guimao Enke, who has been a state companion and is a six-grade scholar. ”
"Thousands of acres of land on the north shore of Pingxi Lake are the property of the Guan family. This Guan family wants money and power, and it is not easy to deal with. Chen Cong's eyes flashed as he spoke.
And Chen Ming was even more puzzled, why did the Guan family, who wanted money and power, focus on the bone china of the Chen family? If this is the future bone china famous all over the country, it is still said. The current bone china plate is very small, and the Guan family can see it?
"Second uncle, does this Guan family have a business at the mouth of the kiln?"
"Never got involved in the handmade porcelain business." Chen Cong's face was gloomy, "After perceiving the connection between Qingtiaoling and Zhuge Miao Town, our Chen family used all means to inquire about the details of the Guan family. The Guan family never had any money to put on the kiln. ”
"So what do they want the bone china recipe to do? Or is it just an excuse. Uncle Erbao walked through Zhoujiakou and missed a horse in Zhuge Temple Town? ”
The secret route of the Chen family to the east was to pass through Pingxi Lake to Luogang Town in Xiangxian County, and then take the Shahe River all the way to Zhoujiakou, taking more waterways along the way. Zhuge Miao Town, as a point in the middle, as the nest of the Guan family, it is not impossible for Chen Erbao and his entourage to really show their feet and be seen by the Guan family. This is also the only 'reason' that Chen Ming can come up with.
"What if you show your deeds once? How would the Guan family know that it was our stock, not stockpiling? Chen Cong tapped his fingers on the tabletop, "It's not that simple. Your father has asked people to visit the Guan family with a generous gift, and there is no news of him yet. Let's wait now to see the attitude of the Guan family, what is the attitude of the Guan family, and after revealing the true form, we can stretch out the slightest taste.
What is the idea of this Guan family, if you don't figure it out, our Chen family will have trouble sleeping and eating. ”
