November 28th, dusk!

The fog is light, the river surface is like a layer of paved with a layer of white sand, and the boats shuttle in the light and fluttering white mist, like a tumbling fish flying.

Suddenly, thirty large wooden boats broke through the fog and trampled like beasts of prey.

"Every time you come here, it's like this?" Fang Jue looked back behind him, except for the porter who was about to unload, the rest had been cleared, looking a little arrogant.

"What, do you have an opinion?"

"Nope!" In this regard, Fang Jue had no opinion in his heart - if someone set fire to the boat, even if only one was burned, it would be 10,000 catties of grain, boiled into porridge, plus wild vegetables, enough for the victims of the county to live for several more days. At least, Fang Jue is very similar in this regard: he is not confined to the situation, and he can distinguish the importance clearly.

The first big ship landed, Peng Ziqing jumped off the boat with his son-in-law Peng Shuihu, came to Wang Shihua, and immediately hugged his fists and smiled: "Master, we completed the task on time, the goods arrived safely, and we are here to report to you." ”

"Lao Peng, it's hard work." Wang Shihua patted Peng Ziqing's shoulder, nodded to Peng Shuihu again, and still got that slightly shy smile. Wang Shihua said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for more than half a year, Lao Peng, your body is a little blessed~!" ”

Peng Ziqing said with a smile: "Master, thanks to you, I have eaten well and slept well for most of the past six months." It's you, you've lost some weight, but you need to take care of your body. ”

Wang Shihua nodded and smiled at Peng Shuihu: "Shuihu, I haven't seen you for a few months, why are you still so shy?" ”

Peng Shuihu touched the back of his head, lowered his head a little embarrassed, and replied, "I don't know why it's like this." ”

"Come on! Let me introduce to you, this is the county magistrate of this county...... County Magistrate Fang, this is Peng Ziqing, the owner of Flying Shark Village, and this is his eldest son-in-law Peng Shuihu. ”

The two sides exchanged words such as "long admiration".

Soon, Peng Ziqing stood beside Wang Shihua, beckoned to the big boat docked on the shore, and shouted, "Let me come down to meet the head of the family." ”

Only then did the sailors on the big boat dare to get off the boat, and without being commanded, they consciously lined up and stood aside, silent...... I didn't notice that no one came down on the big ship just now, but now that Peng Ziqing ordered him like this, he immediately came down in an orderly manner, and he definitely did the order and prohibition, and he was definitely an elite.

Wang Shihua's eyelids jumped, his heart sighed, and he couldn't help but think: It's time for the owner of Flying Shark Village to be replaced...... Seeing that you didn't dare to get off the boat immediately to salute, but you all got off the boat in an orderly manner under Peng Ziqing's greeting, this is not a good sign. In order to hold power for a long time, it is easy to develop the problem of pampering, and after a long time, it will inevitably change in the heart - how many people in the world can not pay attention to fame and fortune? Who is willing to give up the power in their hands? Who doesn't want to be the boss?

"Meet the head of the house!"

"Good! Good! Good! It's all good, it's hard work. ”

"It's not hard."

Wang Shihua nodded with a smile, glanced at Peng Ziqing approvingly, saw that his face was calm, and looked at Peng Shuihu again, but saw Peng Shuihu bowing his head a little embarrassed: If in normal times, Wang Shihua would never care about Peng Shuihu's performance, but since he was suspicious in his heart, he naturally thought that Peng Shuihu was still inexperienced and didn't know how to hide it. I have more thoughts about substitution.

"It is said that the Wang family is strong in force, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its name."

Wang Shihua knew that he was sowing discord, and although he was very angry, he smiled faintly and said, "It's over." County Magistrate Fang, please also send someone to check, and then we will unload the goods. ”

County Magistrate Fang nodded to the secretary behind him and handed it over to the people below.

Wang Shihua pulled Peng Ziqing and the two aside, and said with a smile: "Old Peng, you have trained them in such an orderly manner, tell me quickly, how did you train them?" ”

More than ten minutes later, Fang Jue's secretary muttered a few words in his ear, Fang Jue nodded, and walked towards Wang Shihua.

"Master Wang, I'm talking about it, this is a letter of appointment, you take it."

Wang Shihua took the letter of appointment from the head of the Jiangyin County Baojing Regiment, saw that it was filled in with his name, and even a photo, and then carefully looked at the official seal, and after confirming that it was true, he nodded with satisfaction. While collecting the letter of appointment, Fang Jue smiled and said: "County Magistrate Fang, now that the road is too peaceful, we will stay here tonight, and it will not be too late for me to send someone to escort the county seat along the way early tomorrow morning...... I'll be the east in the evening, please watch the play, how about we have a good chat? ”

"Next time! Next time! ”

Seeing that Wang Shihua looked at him with some astonishment, Fang Jue said with a smug smile: "This batch of grain is very important, and it cannot be lost. The sooner I put the grain in the warehouse in the county, the sooner I can feel at ease. Otherwise, I would be so tasteless that I can't sleep at night. ”

Sure enough, as Mei calculated, Fang Jue really did it.

"You mean to pull grain to the county seat overnight?"

Seeing Fang Jue nodding, Wang Shihua could only continue to pretend to be stupid, but in his heart he admired He Mei's insight into people's hearts and his ability to count everything: surnamed Fang, you don't know yet, right? What you think is a smart thing to do, but my Aunt He has long seen through it. Now, you're proud, and there's a time when you're crying.

"Yes!" Fang Jue nodded, hugged Wang Shihua, and said, "I still have something to deal with over there." After loading the goods, you have to ask the lord of the Wang family to send troops to take care of them along the way. ”

"Definitely! Certain! Please. ”

Seeing Fang Jue turn around and leave in high spirits, Wang Shihua shook his head with a wry smile: Fang Jue, Fang Jue, you have been targeted by my Aunt He, and you have been moldy for eight lifetimes. Me? As long as you learn from Aunt He's experience, it is enough to watch the play easily.

Peng Ziqing, who was beside him, began to be full of cranky thoughts since he saw the letter of appointment, and as soon as Fang Jue left, he immediately asked: "Family master, he gave you a letter of appointment and made you the head of the regiment, why are you still a little unhappy?" ”

Wang Shihua looked at Peng Ziqing with a smile, and was about to speak, when a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind: even if he wanted to transfer Peng Ziqing back, he couldn't be too obvious and ruthless, otherwise it would chill the hearts of the generals. To be honest, this kind of thing is the most difficult to deal with, and it has been the case in all dynasties, but now, there is a godsend.

"I'm worried about something else." After casually responding, he took out the letter of appointment and handed it to Peng Ziqing while saying with a smile: "Old Peng, do you want to be an official?" Be a real official. If you want to, talk about it. ”

Seeing Peng Ziqing looking at the letter of appointment in a daze, Wang Shihua quipped: "This is a godsend, after this village, there will be no such shop, this is a real and powerful officer recognized by the government...... I'm going to set up a few more battalions, and if you want to be a full-fledged battalion commander, or a battalion commander-level officer, tell me quickly. ”

Peng Ziqing thought for a while and asked, "Family Master, this ...... This one...... Can I report it later? ”

"You're also a ** lake that has seen the world. I reported a few more violations of the law, and that's it, I threatened the county magistrate with food, and the county magistrate obtained it through the special approval of his vice governor's father. If you want to build more battalions in the future, you have to approve it to hell, you are really so good at taking it when the air rings? Therefore, I plan to strike while the iron is hot, and I will report the quota in the next day or two before the surname Fang has time to regret it. ”

Peng Ziqing glanced at Wang Shihua, thought about it, and said with a wry smile: "Family master, to tell the truth, I really don't know how to choose for a while: on the one hand, I am reluctant to let these brothers get along day and night, but on the other hand, who doesn't want to be an official official?" Who wouldn't want to return home? Especially being an officer in these troubled times...... Master, if you want me to think about it......"

Speaking of this, Peng Ziqing keenly noticed that Wang Shihua's smiling face suddenly froze, obviously displeased. Let him, who was already confused, immediately change his words and said, "No! In this matter, please decide for me, I will stay where you let me stay, anyway, I will serve you, the head of the family. ”

Wang Shihua nodded with satisfaction, looked at Peng Shuihu, and said with a smile: "Old Peng, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the future of Shuihu, you can't let him and his descendants bear the name of a water bandit for the rest of their lives, right?" Since you let me decide for you, well, you will come back as a battalion commander, let Shui Hu be a company commander first, and then you will retire and let Shui Hu take over you. As for the Flying Shark Village, I'll find someone to watch it first, and then let the water tiger hang a name under you, and then go to the Flying Shark Village to be the owner of the village...... Lao Peng, maybe when the time comes, he will let the water tiger be the owner of the village, and he will not be happy. ”

"Thank you for the grace of the head of the family." Peng Ziqing grabbed Peng Shuihu and knelt down, kowtowing and shouting excitedly: "Today's favor must be repaid by death." ”

"Hurry up, what are you doing with these vain things. Get up! ”

"Master Xie."

"Lao Peng, you choose ten people from among them to be your team in the future."

"Master Xie."

"It's all said, your own family doesn't have to be so polite. You go and choose people, and then take them to Longtang Town to play more tricks and gather more, and let everyone see the prosperity of my Wang family...... In the future, maybe when you return to Flying Shark Village, you will become a guest. ”

As soon as Peng Ziqing heard Wang Shihua's last special reminder, how could he not understand the true meaning of these words, and he inevitably sighed in his heart: To be honest, in the performance just now, his original intention was to cheer for Wang Shihua, but it was self-defeating, which aroused Wang Shihua's vigilance. He was a little worried about this, and now when he heard the word 'guest', he knew that from now on, Flying Shark Village would no longer have anything to do with him.

But he is not sad and disappointed, the so-called gains must be lost, this is also a helpless thing, otherwise, if he really wants to become the battalion commander and the part-time owner of the Flying Shark Village, Wang Shihua nodded, indicating that his death is approaching - who will tolerate the strength of his subordinates to beat the master? Fortunately, the attraction of the official body to him is really strong. And Wang Shihua also asked him to choose the future team, which shows that he still trusts him, or that he still has use value, otherwise, an overhead can make him die.

"Yes!"

After Peng Ziqing and Peng Shuihu went to meet the group of water bandits, Wang Shihua walked a few steps and suddenly looked back at Yang Sanfeng.

Yang Sanfeng is really a shrewd person, and when he got this look, he thought that Wang Shihua was going to entrust him with a heavy task to send him to be the owner of the Flying Shark Village, and he ran to Wang Shihua's side in ecstasy.

"Sanfeng, look at Peng Ziqing carefully, if he wants to make a move, immediately shoot him coldly, I believe in your marksmanship."

"The little one understands."

Wang Shihua was a little disappointed when he heard Yang Sanfeng's tone, and couldn't help but glance at him, seeing that Yang Sanfeng was stunned, Wang Shihua patted him on the shoulder, smiled and whispered: "Even if you want to be the owner of the Flying Shark Village, I am reluctant to let you go." ”

was reluctant to let him be the owner of a small village, so he naturally wanted to be entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and Yang Sanfeng was overjoyed......
