In troubled times, you should use heavy codes!
This ancient precept is really true, after a few bloody heads were hung on the city wall, the few ruffians who had never served in the army who were still rampant in Huangzhou City suddenly stopped.
Of course, this head is borrowed!
"Hey, folks, listen well, this Huangzhou Xingyi is really to save my Li people......"
Ning Guobang, who is the county magistrate, shouted on the street from time to time when the gong sounded, and several officials recruited from home behind him beat the gong even harder, and shouted with the ceremony from time to time.
For Ning Guobang, his head can be said to have been saved with great difficulty, originally he was locked in prison waiting to be beheaded, but who would have thought that this head melon seeds walked around, not only saved, but also returned to the county to grasp the canon, luckily, he had already become a human spirit, and didn't know that this head was only temporarily placed on his shoulder, so the thief ...... No, no, Master Zhu, it's just taking advantage of the familiar environment of their hometown to stabilize the situation in Huangzhou.
However, Ning Guobang lived up to the trust of the adults, and almost on the day of his appointment as the county magistrate, he made a list, those people were all ruffians and hooligans in Huangzhou City, and those people were filial piety during the New Year's holidays, but now Ning Guobang, who is bent on saving his head, needs to borrow their heads to help the adults clean up the hearts of the people.
How to clean up the hearts of the people?
Naturally, I want to kill a few wicked people, this wicked man is the ruffian hooligan who once ran rampant in the city, although many of those gangsters have rebelled, but they have also left a lot, and they have also caught dozens of people under the arrest, no court, no interrogation, since it is to borrow people's heads to correct people's hearts, only need the words "the crime is extremely evil".
A few days ago, when the head of the person landed, the people's immediate applause, for the simple people, they at least saw that the "government" is now killing all the "wicked", which is really "no disturbance to the people", just like this, coupled with the lobbying of those local people, the lobbying of the warden, Huangzhou, which was closed for more than ten days, finally resumed the market, although the market is still depressed, but in general, the city is recovering little by little.
Even the yamen had an extra county lord, thinking about the "luck" of Xu Xiucai, who was locked up with him, but he saw a guest in a long shirt standing in the tavern in the qu cabinet over there, and he was drinking and wearing a long shirt in this Huangzhou City, I am afraid that it is Lin Xiucai, that person also has a little bit of knowledge, thinking that after the recruitment list posted by the adult, few people responded to the list, and he walked over who wanted to please him in front of the new master.
He hadn't arrived yet, but he only listened to Lin Zhiping at the counter, and handed over the wine bowl.
"Refill my bowl again!"
As he spoke, he put a few copper coins, but the shopkeeper just took the money with a smile, but he didn't turn around to renew the wine.
"Oh, Lin Xiucai, in the past, two bowls of wine and a plate of fried peanuts were five cents, but now in this situation, you don't know that these five cents are naturally not available, and you still have to take care of ......."
"Oh? Price increase? ”
Lin Zhiping looked at the wine bowl in a daze, and touched his body again, but there was no penny.
"Shopkeeper Zhou, then give me another bowl, and ...... another day"
"Hey, I'm sorry, now in this situation, this small business is small, I don't dare to owe ...... credit"
The shopkeeper said politely, but everyone heard the refusal of the person in the words, as soon as he said this, Lin Zhiping, whose face was red, suddenly had no words, just smiled bitterly, from the eyes of others, he could read the contempt of the other party, although he was wearing a long shirt, it was dirty and torn, and it seemed that he had not been mended or washed for many years. After all, he is not the "teenager" who was just in the middle school fifteen years ago, but a broken scholar who has tried and failed.
A scholar who can't even afford to drink!
"It's useless to be a scholar!"
Just as he sighed in his heart, a voice came from the side.
"I said, Lin Xiucai, you are also a dead brain, isn't there a recruitment list in the yamen, you Lin Xiucai is a talented person, how many people in our Huangzhou Mansion have passed the Xiucai exam at the age of twelve? If you go to the mansion, it will be a curtain ceremony of thirty taels a month, just like Xu Xiucai, although he is the main man, he will receive thirty-six taels of silver a month, even if the county lord can't get those money in the past......"
For Ning Guobang, the ten taels of silver in a month is really not low, after all, in the past, the official food and silver was not even three taels, at least in his opinion, this is quite generous according to the "rebellion" of Huangzhou City.
"Shopkeeper Zhou, refill Lin Xiucai with another bowl, count me as invited!"
"Yo, Master Ning, that can make you invite, this is a villain inviting Lin Xiucai, if Lin Xiucai enters the mansion, maybe it will be developed in the future, and the villain can't please if he wants to......"
The shopkeeper hurriedly refilled a bowl of wine, lest his movements be slow, and in the future, when the show was developed, he would hate himself.
"Hmph, what do you know......"
With a sneer, Lin Zhiping drank all the wine in the bowl, drinking other people's wine, but he didn't forget to squeeze others in his mouth.
"The laborer is controlled by men, and you only see this thief rising against him, but you don't know that his prosperity is also prosperous and his death is sudden, not to mention the Taiping bandit who passes through the city. It's just this group of bandits who came out of nowhere, and it's just a group of bandits who have a foothold in the city. But within a few days, he was beheaded by the officers and soldiers, and when the time comes, you ......"
"Hey, Lin Xiucai, be quiet, be quiet, you, you don't want to die......"
Lin Xiucai's words made Ning Guobang's heart tighten, and he hurriedly pulled him, trying to stop his words, even the shopkeeper that week was pale with fright, and his eyes looked straight out, for fear that he would accidentally affect himself.
"Life? Ning Zhudian, you better think about saving your life first! ”
As soon as Lin Zhiping's words fell, a man in a short beat in the tavern over there shouted.
"Sure enough, it's a sour Confucian opinion, you didn't look at this Manchu official army fleeing in despair, civil and military officials have to die and flee, if it weren't for the Manchu Qing Dynasty's exhaustion, how could the Taiping army take this city without spending a single soldier......"
"Hmph, what if you take this city? Even if they recruit tens of thousands of brave people in Huangzhou, what can they do, at this time, the imperial army pursues Hongyang along the river, so naturally they can't take care of this Huangzhou, and when the situation in Hubei is stable, the government will naturally send troops to suppress the people in the city, and then they will be blessed on their own,......"
Speaking of this, Lin Zhiping, who was quite satisfied, drank the remaining wine in the bowl in one gulp, pinched a peanut and put it in his mouth, and said quite proudly,
"With such a short-sighted person, I expect that Xu Maoxin will always regret it in the future, how can such a short-sighted and visionary person succeed!"
"You sour Confucian, you speak lightly, this person is short-sighted, that person is hostile, come, you come and tell me, what is far-sighted!"
Putting down the wine bowl, Zhu Yifeng, who was wearing a short cotton jacket, stood up and walked to the curved cabinet, his forehead had short hair half an inch long, if it weren't for the fair complexion, it would be no different from an ordinary barbarian.
But when this person came, Lin Zhiping, who was originally making a lot of nonsense, was in a panic. As for Ning Guobang, who was still persuading people, the whole person was even more frightened, he had already recognized this master, although he only glanced at it from a distance at the time, but that glance was enough, after all, this person was too young.
"Vision, but it's just a sour Confucian, what kind of foresight are you talking about?"
Unexpectedly, Lin Zhiping did not continue to make a lot of nonsense, but as soon as he put his words away, the whole person shrank back. Even the slightly reddened face would have made me a little nervous.
"Shopkeeper, refill Lin Xiucai with another bowl, and in the future, I will cover all his wine money!"
As he spoke, Zhu Yifeng had already taken out a silver ingot weighing ten taels and put it on the curved cabinet, and the shopkeeper looked at the silver, and then at Ning Zhudian, who looked wrong, and Lin Xiucai, who was already a businessman, and said quickly.
"This lord, look at you, that can make you break the bank!"
He did not dare to take the silver, but the wine was poured in haste, and not only was it poured out, but it was also the best wine.
Smelling the aroma of wine, Lin Zhiping smiled bitterly.
"Shopkeeper Zhou, this is unmixed wine, in the past, you were reluctant! I see that you can see it, this wine is a send-off wine for Yin! ”
His words made Shopkeeper Zhou's face hot for a while, and everyone who does business is like this.
"Sending off? Humph......"
With some smiles on his face, Zhu Yifeng stood by the cabinet.
"Not really, please ask Brother Yin to make it clear, you see, is it here, or is it a different place?"
