Chapter 104: River One Workshop
Xu Du, the prison.
It's still that cell, where Cao Zhen and the others were held a month ago, and now there are newcomers.
In the corridor, the lights are dim. Chen Zao looked at the two people in the cell blankly, and suddenly had an urge to hug his head and cry.
What's going on this year?
Just a bunch of little overlords left, and now two big masters have been sent!
Although the little overlords are domineering, they are a bunch of children after all, and they can't afford to toss any storms; But these two big men ...... There are fewer people, but the risk factor has increased. Just look at the candlelight, two burly men like lions, kneeling face to face on the mat. Although he didn't say a word, the cell was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, even if it was far away, it was still terrifying.
Chen Zao has been worried since these two masters were sent in.
Cao Gong was too, knowing that these two were not dealing with each other, and arranged them to a cell. Although the previous group of little overlords didn't deal with each other, they were divided and staked after all, so they didn't have to worry about their conflict. Can ...... now Judging by the meaning of these two, it is possible to do it at any time.
And these two are not characters that Chen Zao can deal with.
Dian Wei and Xu Chu sat face to face with calm faces.
There were about five or six steps between the two of them, two pairs of eyes, four eyes were round, and neither of them would blink, and they were free from the two fighting cocks, and the saber was tense.
"If it weren't for someone to help you, your tiger would be nothing."
Xu Chu gritted his teeth and glared at Dian Wei and said.
Dian Wei immediately returned with a pair of ringed eyes, "Zhongkang, willing to gamble and lose!" If you can't afford to lose, don't do it...... That's right, someone helped me, so what? Lao Tzu is popular and lucky! You can also get someone to help. Are there still few people in your Xu family? Why not look for it? ”
"You ......"
Xu Chu was so angry that his forehead was bruised, and his temples jumped suddenly.
Dian Wei snorted, closed his eyes, and ignored Xu Chu no longer.
"You...... It's not a real skill. Xu Chu lowered his voice and said.
Dian Wei pursed his mouth, touched his beard like a steel needle under his chin, and said with a smile: "Is it a real ability, anyway, I won you." ”
"What can I do if I win?" Xu Chu sneered, "Could it be that you have someone to help you in your life?" ”
"I'm lucky." Dian Wei grinned and laughed, "My son and the family are sworn brothers, why is it difficult for me to ask him for help?" ”
Xu Chu's clenched fist suddenly let go.
He also laughed, "Your son bowed to others, but didn't my son bow to him?"
Dian Wei, don't be complacent. In the little bayi, my son is the second, and your son is the third. According to this statement, your son must still call me my son's brother. The second brother begging someone to do something is better than the third brother. Dian Junming, let's try again next time to see who can win. ”
The smile on Dian Wei's face suddenly condensed.
He opened his eyes, glared at Xu Chu angrily and said, "Xu Zhongkang, you are so shameless!" ”
"Hmph, it's not shameless, at most it's just luck. Someone invited a master thousands of miles away, but it turned out to be cheaper for my child. ”
"You, you...... I'll go back and ask Aman and Afu to quit Kobayi. ”
"Okay, you go back and try it and see if they can say yes? They swore an oath to the saints of Confucius, and you ask them if they will listen to you. ”
Xu Chu's mood was suddenly much happier.
The depression that was suppressed by Dian Wei before seems to have disappeared a lot at once.
Dian Wei said angrily: "Xu Zhongkang, you bastard, Lao Tzu has to teach you a lesson today." ”
"Come on, I wanted to beat you up!" Xu Chu didn't show weakness, straightened his waist, and opened his eyes, "If you hadn't followed the lord earlier, now that Hu Ben is a general, then it's your turn?" What is the ability to rely on his son to get cheap? In terms of fists and feet, Lao Tzu does not lose you. ”
Two big men with long bodies.
Outside the cell, Chen Zao and the others felt a sigh in their hearts.
The fight started, and it was finally going to start...... "Brother, should we go over and stop it?" ”
"What's the block? If we go over, we will be sent to death. If these two really fight, except for Cao Sikong, who can stop them? ”
Chen Zao's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
At this moment, two teenagers walked in from outside the prison door.
"What are you doing here?"
Chen Zao turned around, looked at the person, and immediately became happy.
"The two sons came just in time, hurry up, the two generals are going to fight."
"Huh?"
These two teenagers are Dianman and Xu Yi. The two of them bought wine, meat and food outside, and wanted to persuade the two adults. Unexpectedly, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were tense and ready to start...... Dian Wei and Xu Yi each carried a food box and walked forward quickly.
"Why don't you stop it?"
Chen Zao suddenly cried, "Childe, it's not that the villain doesn't want to stop it, it's really ...... Two generals, who can stop it! ”
Dian Wei Xu Yi ignored Chen Zao and walked quickly to the outside of the cell.
"Dad, stop!"
"Father, stop fighting, don't fight......"
The call of the teenagers made Dian Wei and Xu Chu stop.
"Aman, you have to stop me, I have to teach this stupid tiger a lesson today."
Xu Chu said angrily: "Who teaches who is not yet known!" Big head, you also saw it, it's not that I want to do it, but this guy is too deceitful. ”
Dianman said angrily: "Hurry up and open the door." ”
Xu Yi persuaded hard, "Father, you and your uncle are serving under the lord's account, and you are both guards, don't hurt the harmony, otherwise the lord will definitely be punished." ”
"yes, Daddy...... If you hurt Uncle Xu, the lord will definitely not be happy. ”
When Xu Chu heard this, he was not happy.
"Aman, where did you start with this? With this guy, can you hurt me? Don't look at him taller than me, Lao Tzu can kill him with one hand. ”
Dian Wei was furious, "It's up to you? Lao Tzu can beat you with his eyes closed. ”
"You're looking for death."
"Who is looking for death, not necessarily."
"I have to teach you a lesson today."
"Come on, whoever dares to retreat is the grandson."
"Come on, come on, I'll fight you with three lilies."
"Phew, Lao Tzu can take the life of a dog ...... thirty times"
Pawning that sentence suddenly made the atmosphere that had just eased down become tense again.
"Stop it, my lord is here!"
In prison, suddenly there was a roar.
Dian Wei and Xu Chu immediately shut up, and each went back to sit down again.
Looking up, I saw that Chen Zao was shrinking back. Obviously, that roar came from his mouth. Outside the prison, it was quiet, and there was no trace of Cao Ying.
"Bastard, dare to bully me?" Dian Wei was furious.
Xu Chu also had to be angry, "Little jailer, dare to assume the name of the lord?" What is your name! Wait for me to return to the lord and take the dog's life. ”
Chen Zao didn't even dare to let go of a fart, and directly retracted into the shadows.
A prison guard looked at Chen Zao with adoring eyes: The eldest brother is really powerful, even these two dare to deceive, aren't you afraid that these two will come out to clean him up?
Damn, I'll resign tomorrow and won't do it.
Being such a little jailer is not enough to be afraid. There are not many people, and there are worries about the surname...... Lao Tzu tomorrow, join the army!
Chen Zao secretly made up his mind.
But his roar did ease the atmosphere in the prison.
Dian Wei and Xu Chu also stopped arguing with each other, and each returned to the pu mat and sat down on his knees.
Xu Yi motioned for a jailer to come over and open the cell door, and he walked into the cell with a food box. The two of them opened the food box and took out the wine and meat.
"Dad, let's eat first."
Dian Wei nodded, looked down, but frowned.
"Why no wine?"
Dian Man was stunned and turned his head to look at Xu Yi.
saw Xu Yi open the food box, and the wine was all in it.
"Big head, bring me the wine."
Xu Chu said angrily: "Why? This is the ...... that my son brought to me Big head, why don't you even have a snack to eat, it's all food. ”
As he spoke, he raised his head and saw plates of meat in the food box in front of Dian Wei.
"Aman, bring me the food."
Dian Wei said: "This is what my son brought to me!" ”
With that, he suddenly laughed. Dian Wei's smile also made Xu Chu stunned for a moment, and then he laughed dumbly.
The two glanced at each other, laughed at the same time......―――――――――――――――――――――――――― Cao Ji Cao Peng's father and son, and rushed back to Wubao, it was already dark.
Deng Ji also just came back and was talking to Cao Nan. Cao Nan's belly is as big as a day. Count the number, and I'm about to give birth!
As for Deng Ji, there is nothing to do.
When the Tiger Ben Army performance is over, his mission will be completed.
Outcome?
Deng Ji didn't care, he just wanted to accompany Cao Nan now, be safe and give birth to the child.
Since Cao Nan became pregnant, his family has never been stable. The previous Shangguan was transferred away, and the new county commander arrived, which made Deng Ji's position quite embarrassing at that time and was bullied by Deng Cai. Later, Cao Peng's family came over, and the situation improved somewhat. But it didn't take long for Deng Ji to be drafted into the army, and although he saved his surname, he lost an arm. Moreover, Cao Nan was detained and arrested by the government with his parents.
After rescuing Cao Nan, he traveled thousands of miles and came to Xudu from Nanyang County.
Soon Fengdianwei formed the Tiger Ben Army, and Deng Ji went over to help. This gang is a few months, and they don't even have time to spend with their wives.
Every time he thought of this, Deng Ji felt very ashamed.
Now that he is finally free, he naturally wants to accompany his wife well and make up for his past negligence.
"Dad, I'm back!"
Deng Ji supported Cao Nan and was walking around the courtyard.
He didn't have to worry about Cao Nan's physical condition, because there was a doctor at home. Zhang Zhongjing's disciple Dong Xiao now lives in the dock fort. Usually I don't have anything to do, either read a book, or go to the Rejuvenation Hall to help Xiao Kun, a non-famous gynecological saint, diagnose people. Dong Xiao's current situation is that he is excellent in theory, but has too little practical experience. In the field of Chinese medicine, experience is very important. Old Chinese Medicine, Old Chinese Medicine ...... This 'old' does not necessarily mean age, but more refers to experience, the sophistication of experience.
Rejuvenation Hall happens to be the place where Dong Xiao's practice has accumulated.
Dong Xiao's life is very simple and healthy, and his material requirements are not too high.
Zhang Zhongjing asked Dong Xiao to come to Xudu, in fact, he hoped that he could gain a foothold in Xudu, gain a firm foothold, and seek a way out for the Zhang family in Nieyang.
And this kind of thing is not in a hurry.
Dong Xiao lives in the pawn's house, which is a way of doing things in itself.
As the relationship between the Cao and Dian families became closer and closer, and the Xiao Bayi of Cao Peng and others appeared, the Cao family would sooner or later occupy a place in Xudu.
This point, from now on the martial arts, Cao Ji was invited, you can see the clues.
Therefore, Dong Xiao seemed very calm...... Cao Ji nodded and did not make a sound.
That serious expression made Deng Ji immediately feel that something was happening.
beckoned a maid to come over and helped Cao Nan to leave. Deng Ji followed Cao Ji and the others to the hall, and only after sitting down did he ask, "Dad, is there an accident?" ”
Cao Peng said: "Gong Cao wants to ask my father to serve as the first supervisor of He. ”
"The first order of the river?" Deng Ji was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately, and said in surprise: "But the order of the Zhuye Supervisor? That's a good thing! ”
"What's good!" Cao Peng said: "In terms of skills, my father is not a big problem.
In terms of skills, it is not too difficult to deter those workers. My dad has made a name for himself now, and I'm not worried about that.
The problem is that my father has never been an official, and he doesn't know anything about the situation of Zhuye Supervisor.
I originally thought that it would not be difficult for my father to be a supervisor first, and then be promoted after he was familiar with the affairs of the Zhuye Supervisor...... But now, my father has suddenly become a supervisor. Although there are 600 stones, if there is a business trip, it will inevitably outweigh the losses. ”
Deng Ji immediately understood Cao Peng's worries.
It is undeniable that Cao Peng's worries are not unreasonable.
"Ah Fu, I think you're too worried."
"Oh?"
Cao Peng looked at Deng Ji suspiciously.
Deng Ji walked up to Cao Ji and sat down, "Dad, don't worry. The reason why Cao Gong worships you as a supervisor is more because he values your skills. As long as you have real skills, what are you afraid of? Although what Ah Fu said makes sense, who is born to understand those things? I don't know very well about the affairs of the court, but if you talk about official offices such as Zhuye Supervisor...... Hehe, I do know something.
What kind of process did Ah Fu say, standard...... It's all set rules, and it's not a hassle to follow them. When the time comes, you just need to arrange things down, and naturally someone will be watching. As for the workers...... I think Ah Fu thinks too much. Heyi Workshop has been suspended since the first year of Zhongping, and it has been more than ten years. It can be said that in the past ten years, the Heyi Workshop has basically been in a state of abandonment. And the workers and officials in various places are also surrounded by local heroes, and it is difficult to make a clear inventory for a while.
Therefore, what Dad needs to do now is to resume work in Heyi Workshop as soon as possible and make Zhuye Supervisor restart.
The reason why Cao Gong asked his father to be the supervisor of the smelting supervisors was because he wanted to rely on his father's skills and reputation...... After all, my father is now famous, and he made thirty-six Tiangang knives in three months, who doesn't know? With this reputation, the problem of the smelters is not in difficulty. After the resumption of work in the Heyi workshop, Cao Gong's ordnance was supplied. When the local workers and officials return, when the time comes, it will not be what the father says, what is it? ”
Cao Peng was stunned when he heard this, and he had a feeling of seeing the clouds.
What Deng Ji said, it is reasonable!
I seem to be a little bit biased...... The workers scattered all over the place are actually not the main body of the metallurgical supervisors. The real foundation of Zhuye Jian is in the Heyi Workshop. And the Heyi Workshop is now in a state of paralysis and abandonment, waiting to be rebuilt. Cao Ji passed at this time, which was equivalent to holding up the Zhuye Supervisor with one hand.
At that time, the matter of Zhuye Prison is not Cao Ji himself who has the final say?
"Brother-in-law, you're right."
Cao Ji also regained a lot of confidence at this time.
As Deng Ji said, in terms of skill alone, Cao Ji is really not afraid of anyone now.
With the double-liquid quenching method, with the powerful bellows...... Cao Ji believes that he will definitely be able to support Zhuye Prison!
Deng Ji scratched his head, "However, what Ah Fu said also makes sense." ”
Don't be surprised, it's easy to get a heart attack!
Cao Peng muttered to himself in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "I want to hear about it." ”
"Dad's strengths and weaknesses are equally obvious...... Dad has no fame, and he can't read. Father's skills naturally don't need to be bothered, but he doesn't know anything about this court. If you can't find a proper helper, I'm afraid this prison order won't last long. ”
Cao Peng nodded, quite agreeable.
Cao Ji said: "How is that? ”
"This ...... It does take a bit of thought.
The official position of the Zhuye supervisor is not obvious, and doing things in the past is equivalent to being an official. Generally, people who are talented and well-known do not care about such things. So if your father wants to find a helper, he must start from people who are not famous or have a family background, but must be talented, which is more troublesome. ”
Cao Peng couldn't help frowning and fell into deep thought.
"What then?"
Deng Ji thought for a while, "There are many celebrities and scholars in Yingchuan, and there are countless talented and learned people. But if you want to find the right helper, I'm afraid it's difficult.
Well, I'll go find Bonghyo tomorrow.
After all, he and I are also in the same class, and he will not refuse. He is from Yingchuan, and he has a lot of friends with Hanshi, so he may be able to find a suitable candidate. If it doesn't work well, I'll go with him to visit Lord Shizhong...... He has a wide range of people and must be able to help. Anyway, the helper that Dad is looking for doesn't need to be too capable. Literacy, knowledge of the affairs of the court, and good virtue can be ......"
"The most important thing is virtue!"
Cao Peng couldn't help but interject.
Deng Ji nodded again and again in agreement.
And at this time, Cao Ji can be regarded as letting go of a little bit of his worries, and he seems to be much more relaxed.
This one son, one son-in-law...... At a critical time, he can indeed share his worries and solve problems. If it's not a family, how can you do so hard?
Cao Ji couldn't help but sigh, at a critical time, it has to be his own family!
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――― the next morning, Deng Ji and Cao Peng went out.
Deng Ji was going to visit Guo Jia, while Cao Peng made an appointment with Cao Zhen and was going to call Dian Man and Xu Yi to visit Dian Wei Xu Chu.
At the same time, Cao Peng also wanted to inquire with Cao Zhen to see if he had a suitable candidate.
After all, Cao Zhen is the son of Cao Ying, and he has a wide range of people in Xudu. The matter of finding a helper for Cao Ji is urgent. Once Cao Ying's appointment is official, then Cao Ji will have to go to Xingyang immediately. Time waits for no one, and it is a matter of mind to determine this matter a little earlier, and a little earlier.
Cao Ying's conquest of Yuan Shu is said to be approaching.
It is said that Cao Yingyi sent people to Jiangdong to contact Sun Ce...... As soon as these people are properly contacted, Cao Ying will send troops to Shouchun. Cao Peng has a feeling that his time in Xudu will not be too long!
Cao Ying, I've seen it!
I didn't really make contact, but I saw ...... So who will you meet next?
Cao Peng couldn't help but look forward to it in his heart!
(To be continued)
