Chapter Twenty-Six: The County Orders the Adults to Come to the People (Second Correction 2)
Chapter Twenty-Six: The county orders the adults to come to the people
While the people at the foot of the mountain were busy, Zhan Zhubo and Xiao Xiancheng were also busy at home, they were busy looking for things.
"Who saw my seal?" Xiao Xiancheng kept repeating this sentence, no matter how he recalled, he couldn't think of where he lost it, he used it at noon, why did he come back and it was gone?
The subordinates in the family were afraid that the old man would send the fire to him at this time, so they hid one by one, so they let Xiao Xiancheng toss there by himself.
The subordinate who had been with him last night was also helping, seeing that the old man was in a hurry, he persuaded beside him: "Master, why don't you go to the yamen and tell the officials, and let the officials help find it?" Or ask Zhan Zhubo. ”
"No, you can't go to the yamen, if the people in the yamen know that my seal is lost, they will definitely tell Zhang Zhong, I'm afraid that Zhang Zhong will talk about this matter, so let's ask Zhan Zhubo first."
Xiao Xiancheng couldn't sleep at this time, changed into civilian clothes, and went out to Zhan Lord Bo's house, he was worried that Zhang Zhong knew about the loss of the seal, and he needed to report it to the court first, and then he could only wait for the court to send another seal, which would delay a lot of time.
There are some things that cannot be done without a seal, and if those businessmen buy land and do not print it themselves, it is easy to lose the benefits.
When Xiao Xiancheng walked to the door of Zhan Zhubo's house, the door of Zhan Zhubo's house was suddenly opened from the inside, and Zhan Zhubo was also walking out, the two of them looked at each other, and asked at the same time, "Do you see my seal?" ”
"What? Your seal is gone? The two said in unison again.
"What to do? Brother Yong, you have to think of a way, the big seal is gone, we can only let Zhang Zhong report to him, then if he gives the land out at this time, we won't get any benefit, and we can't make him bad, I want to report to the top, don't stamp it, and don't recognize it. ”
Zhan Zhubo was in a hurry now, he also thought of the matter of the land, and asked Xiao Xiancheng to find a way.
Xiao Xiancheng didn't have anything to think about, he was also in a hurry, walking back and forth at the door of Zhan Zhubo's house, stopping from time to time to say a cruel word, saying that he would do what he would do after knowing who took the seal.
The two of them were worried, and the copywriter who had a good relationship with them before came over, and as soon as they met, he said: "Two adults, can't you find the seal?" ”
"What? How do you know? Did you take it? Shen Yuan, Shen Yuan, in vain I and Zhan Zhubo were so good to you on weekdays, and they actually took away our seal, okay, say, what do you want? ”
Xiao Xiancheng thought that Shen Yuan took away the seals of the two of them to get some benefits from them, and asked a little angrily.
Shen Wenshu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained, "My lord, two adults, how dare I take your seal, it was stolen by a person named Lu Yishou, just when the two adults came out of the small shop for dinner, he is now a servant, and the seals of the two adults are kept in the signing room." ”
"Who is Lu Yishou? Servants? Well, he still dares to be a servant, see if I don't ...... Since you have taken the seal back, let's do this first, Shen Yuan, it is not in vain that I and Zhan Lord Bo are so good to you on weekdays, thanks to you for telling me about this, otherwise, I am still in a hurry. ”
Xiao Xiancheng heard that the matter of Yin had fallen, and he originally wanted to take revenge, but suddenly retracted this idea, after all, now he has to pass Zhang Zhong to clean up a servant, and he can only wait to find an opportunity in the future, he said Shen Yuan just now, and now he praised it again.
Shen Yuan didn't dare to care about what happened just now, and the purpose of his coming was not just like this, he said with a smile: "It's good that the adults are not in a hurry, my lord, I have an idea, what if we steal the seal of the county commander?" Didn't we help someone who specializes in stealing things before? He now lives in the county.
Let's find him and let him steal the seal of the county order, and then there will be more things to do, and there will be no need to worry about the county order being a hindrance, what do you see? ”
"Well, isn't it? In case people know, the sin is not small, and if you don't get the head, you will have to fall to the ground, why don't you arrange it? After the deed is done, your benefits are indispensable, and if you lose, you will take the money and fly away. ”
Xiao Xiancheng was really tempted, but if he didn't want to do it himself, he just pushed it on Shen Yuan, Shen Yuan had done a lot of things with them, and he couldn't agree if he wanted to.
Shen Yuan was stunned, he didn't expect that he would put himself in when he came up with an idea, looked at the eyes of the two people, gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay, I will arrange for someone to find that snitch for this matter, and if he finds it, I will let that person leave Huayuan County, but he can't leave without a penny, right?" I don't have that money. ”
"At this time, it's easy to talk about money, Brother Xiangyun, it's right here at your house, you can take out a hundred or ten pieces for the people who do things, take a few copper coins, and use silver for the rest." Xiao Xiancheng said to Zhan Zhubo.
Zhan Zhubo reluctantly agreed, turned around and went back to get fifty taels of broken silver and two copper coins, and said: "The broken silver is easier to spend, the copper coins are too heavy, there are only these broken silver at home, fifty taels is enough, and you can run a small house outside." ”
Shen Yuan also thought that he got a hundred yuan and kept a part of it for himself, but he didn't expect that Zhan Zhubo only took fifty taels of broken silver, if it was for someone who did the work, it would not be a few, so he picked up a dozen pounds of copper coins, and said goodbye to the two of them and walked back.
Waiting for Shen Yuan to leave, Zhan Zhubo and Xiao Xiancheng didn't have the heart to sleep, and the two of them came to the yamen together, retrieved their seals, asked the yamen, and knew that Zhang Zhong had gone to the mountain, and the two of them smiled yin, thinking that they would be able to let Zhang Zhong know that they were powerful.
Zhang Zhong is still doing business here at the foot of the mountain, where do you know that others are idle and want to calculate him, in fact, even if you know, you are not afraid.
At this time, the sky was a little cloudy, Zhang Zhong looked at the sky, and said to He Cangji: "It seems that there will be rain all the time in the past two days, so we have to prepare some clothes and hats, buy them, let the people do it themselves, even if we can buy it for them to wear, there are still people far away who can't toss back and forth, and set up some tents here."
Tell the wharf there, and when you meet the merchants, tell them that you want 500 tents that can be used for four people, and let the merchants themselves say the price, which tent is better and which one is cheaper, and use whichever one, forget it, and ask if there is anyone in the county who specializes in this, and let them hire someone to do it, only give two days, five hundred. ”
"I understand, this is arranged, they have to pay taxes for selling tents, and hiring people can also make the people more money." He Cangji didn't need to be mentioned again at this time to understand why the county order had changed his mind, and promised to turn around and find someone to arrange.
The people who worked didn't know how much the prefectural magistrate had thought about them, but the people who were waiting to cook were also nearby, and now they finally understood how good the new prefectural ordinance was for them, and whispered there, and all the topics revolved around the new prefectural magistrate.
Zhang Zhong also asked those who worked to tell them that they could not have a stable place to sleep at night in the past two days, so that they could hold on, and they could light more fires to keep warm here, and they would be given a cake to eat at night, as well as bone broth.
After doing this, Zhang Zhong thought about it, and instructed the subordinates at home: "Go back and tell Juan Juan, I won't go back tonight, live with the people, let her watch "Erya" by herself today, like this first." ”
The next person knows, after going back, he will tell the little boy and the little lady, but when I think of this book, I feel a little scared, this book is all about explaining certain words, boring, and the little boy and the little lady can read it.
The night soon came, and the clouds in the sky became denser, and there were no stars to be seen, and no moon could be seen, and fires were lit one by one, and curtains were brought to cover the rain, and the rain had not yet fallen, and looking at the sky, it seemed that there was going to be a big one.
The cooks have already cooked all the meals, and there is only one rice, small rice, and there is only one stew, in which some meat and bones are put in, and there are wild vegetables on the mountain, and no one is willing to eat the eggplants that Zhang Zhong let people transport, they are all wild vegetables that they dig by themselves, and there are some mushrooms, which are also stewed together.
The garlic sauce is also ready, and a large vat is placed there, ready to eat and scoop out the fatty slices when it rains for a while.
The people were willing to endure hardships, and Zhang Zhong originally waited for them to eat when it was dark, but none of these people had anything to eat, so they tied up torches and continued to work, waiting for the rain to eat.
The people looked like it, and let Zhang Zhong decide that Huayuan County must be built as soon as possible, otherwise he will be sorry for these people and his official uniform.
After waiting for another hour, the rain finally fell under Zhang Zhong's expectations, and the people who were working finally stopped what they were doing and came to eat.
Those who were in charge of cooking quickly served rice to the people who worked, Zhang Zhong also came over with a bowl, and the people who served the rice stopped there and didn't dare to move, and the people of the Zhang family also came over and said, "Master, let's eat something else, right?" ”
"I'll eat this today, I usually eat too much of other things, just once, let's serve it, serve it more, I'm hungry too."
Zhang Zhong said there with a bowl, he wanted to taste the taste of this food, if not, he had to let someone come over and teach it, dishes with meat should not be unpalatable, and oil and seasonings were not missing.
Zhang Zhong felt that his approach was normal, but the people didn't feel normal, and the tears that moved the people who served the meal flowed down, and he specially picked out some fat slices for the county magistrate there, and Zhang Zhongzhi frowned, he didn't want to eat this, he wanted to eat some wild vegetables and mushrooms, and he couldn't refuse, otherwise the people should think of him.
Zhang Zhong's approach suddenly shortened the distance between the people, and those people saw that the county magistrate also ate this, and they ate it deliciously, and they were equally happy to eat, and today they completely understood what kind of official the new county magistrate was.
"Well, the taste is okay, put more ingredients in the stew next time." Zhang Zhong ate two bowls of rice and a big bowl of vegetables, patted his stomach with satisfaction and said.
