Pingshou County is only a small county, founded in the first year of Shunde, when the population of the county was less than 5,000, so the chief executive is the county magistrate; Although the population exceeded 10,000 during the Showa period, the size of the sub-prefecture has not been upgraded because it is too close to the county, and the scale of the sub-prefecture has continued for nearly 100 years.

The county gate of Pingshou is also the same as the treatment of Pingshou County, low and old, and now it has a faint smell of blood, plus a good banquet here yesterday, all kinds of flavors are mixed, and it is really not decent. And now Zhao Min is leading his subordinates to stand at the gate of this dilapidated and strange-smelling county office, waiting for Lord Assassin Shi to come.

Zhao Min has gained a lot now, and he no longer has the mind to worry about gains and losses with the state government. Even if you stand in such a bad place, you don't care about it at all. However, just in case, let Jiang Qin go to rest by himself, and don't show up if he has nothing to do, so as not to cause extraneous trouble.

About half a moment later, the sedan chair of Lord Thorn Shi came to the gate of the county office. In fact, the sedan chair in this era is not popular, most of the scribes who follow the six arts of the gentleman still like to ride a horse, but after all, the sedan chair is comfortable to ride, and it is a symbol of status, so there are still many luxury officials and wealthy people like to travel by sedan chair.

Zhao Min took a step forward and said, "The fourth son of Emperor Gongde Tianzi Min has visited Lord Cao of the Qingzhou Department of the Supervision Yuan!" With his hands on his forehead, he stacked them left and right, and led everyone to bow down and worship. The door of the sedan car opened, and a middle-aged official dressed in a dark yellow triple coat and wearing a virtuous crown on his head came down, which was Lord Cao Kaicao, the assassin of Qingzhou. Zhao Min peeked over, only to see that this Lord Cao was fat and had a lovely smile, although a pair of thick eyebrows were thick and straight, but a pair of small eyes, with a round face, it was not so much a big member of the two thousand stones in the Yizhong, but more like a big businessman who made money amiably. Now this businessman-looking adult seems to be blind to the dilapidated county government and ignores the strange smell, takes a step forward and stretches out his hand to help, and also said: "How can the king of Beihai be so polite, just send a small official to summon, Kai will be there in person, why do you need to greet Cao, how can you afford it!" Ha ha! ”

Zhao Min sneered in his heart, Cao Kai's hand straightened up before it touched his body, but his face was also full of smiles: "Min Ben is a backward and a junior, and it is natural to welcome the adult in person, why should the adult be polite!" ”

Cao Kai responded with a smile: "That is the case, then Cao Mou will be shy and old, but it is disrespectful!" ”

Zhao Min hurriedly replied, "Make it", and let Cao Kai and his party inside. The county government is a small place, so guests can only choose to be in the main hall. Zhao Min first invited Cao Kai and others to take a seat, and then said after serving fragrant tea: "Min should have visited the boss as soon as possible since he left Beijing, and he was afraid that the adult would be busy with official business and flawless; It was only today that I had to face the boss, and my heart was overjoyed. Come on, please try my homemade 'Jimoxiang' tea, it will be different, and there will be a new experience! ”。

In fact, the so-called 'Jimo Xiang' is Zhao Min's homemade roasted tea, although the roasted tea workshop has not yet been completed, but it does not prevent him from making some spare parts in small quantities, anyway, his own small circle is in short supply, and he does not have to worry about waste. Zhao Min's thinking from later generations naturally understands the importance of brand marketing, so he discussed with Xia Houjie in the early stage to do a good job in packaging and promote it with a unified brand of 'Jimo Xiang'.

Cao Kai took a sip of tea and praised: "It's really extraordinary!" The king of Beihai is blessed with a heart, and he is indeed a noble son of heaven, with unique ingenuity! Hehe! ”

Zhao Min listened to it and felt heaved in his heart. Isn't it just going around in circles to sarcasm that I'm not doing my job? What else is ingenious! But it's okay, since you think I'm not doing my job, I'm not doing my job to show you! laughed at the moment: "Min has been a little stubborn since he was a child, he is not good at poetry and books, but he likes to ponder some strange tricks and tricks, which makes the old man laugh." ”

After a pause, he suddenly made an expression as if he remembered something, and said, "I don't know what these nobles are called, my lord!" It's really sluggish, forgive me, forgive me! As he spoke, he patted his head and pretended to be suddenly enlightened.

The Xia Dynasty founded the country with filial piety, and it was considered quite rude to see others without asking for their names. Of course, Zhao Min didn't really forget to ask for advice, he was deliberately erecting an ignorant and rude image for himself, simply put, trying to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger. Of course, the people present are all old and mature characters, and it is still two to say whether they can eat the tiger or not.

Cao Kai didn't seem to be aware of it, still squinting at those small eyes, and said with a smile: "It's also Cao who is confused!" Come on, come on, let me take the king of the North Sea to meet me Qingzhou Junjie! After that, he took Zhao Min's hand and introduced him one by one. From Peng Shi and fake Zuo, to don't drive and engage, Zhao Min also saw each other last time. Then Zhao Min also introduced Meng Hou, Zhao Yun and others to the people in the state capital. For a while, everyone in the hall admired each other for a long time, and they looked happy, at least on the surface, they were happy.

The ceremony has ended, and it has been lively, and it is almost in the middle of the unitary time. Zhao Min sent people to set up tables and chairs in the hall, and invited a banquet here. It just so happened that there was a lot of vegetables, fruits, and meat left after the feast after taking Pingshou lightly yesterday, and even the effort to buy dishes was saved. The Chinese habit of talking at the dinner table has endured for thousands of years, whether in later generations or now. Therefore, it was not until the three rounds of wine and the atmosphere on the table became more harmonious that Cao Kai spoke slowly: "The day before yesterday, the King of Beihai rode lightly into hundreds of miles, took Pingshou lightly, and severely damaged the rebels under Pingshou City, which can be described as both wisdom and bravery, which is really the blessing of my Great Xia!" ”

Zhao Min's heart jumped, and he secretly said that this meat scene was finally here, and he hurriedly made a panicked look, and arched his hand: "The old man has a good reputation, Min just heard that the adult is mighty, and the soldiers are surrounding the drama county, so he thought about whether he could help the adult, so he desperately urged the soldiers to march." When the soldiers arrived in Pingshou, they were really unable to hurry, so they had to rest for a while, and they never thought that the defense of Pingshou City was lax, and they turned a blind eye to our army, which made Min pick up a big bargain! This is the luck of inviting the heavens, not the work of Min! ”

Cao Kai picked up his wine glass, raised it to Zhao Minyao, and said: "Today, I heard that the King of Beihai completely annihilated the rebel army in Dongcheng and raised the prestige of my Great Xia army, which is really gratifying!" Cao is here to salute the King of the North Sea a cup, I wish the King of the North Sea prosperity and prosperity! Dry! After speaking, he drank the remaining wine in the cup.

Zhao Min hurriedly drank all the wine in the cup, and then said: "The boss doesn't know, Min is in order to deal with the adult's rebellious master, so he poured out of the nest, wanting to exterminate the deviant teacher and help the old man." Unexpectedly, the rebels were extremely vicious, not only with a large number of people, but also with strong armor and sharp soldiers, and they were not familiar with military affairs, resulting in heavy casualties and heavy casualties, and also allowed most of the rebels to flee...... I'm ashamed! As he spoke, he made a very aggrieved look, his eyes blinked, and he couldn't squeeze out tears, so he simply closed his eyes and made a painful appearance.

Seeing Zhao Min's clumsy performance, Rao is Cao Kai couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, coughed dryly twice, and finally said the most important words: "Today, a subordinate came to report to Shenshi, saying that the Beihai King's subordinates had mistakenly entered the military warehouse and took away a batch of armaments. As he spoke, the essence of the squinted eyes flashed, and it was as if the essence was stabbing at Zhao Min's eyes.

Zhao Min's immature body is not a real fifteen-year-old hairy boy, how can he be frightened by this little trick. Do you think that a 'careless mistake' will make me think that everything will be all right if I hand over these crossbows? Zhao Min sneered in his heart, and made a look of surprise on his face: "There is such a thing!" Min Shi doesn't know! Do you know if you wait?" After speaking, he turned his head to look at Meng Hou and the others. Everyone naturally shook their heads and said they didn't know, and Zhao Min turned to Cao Kai again: "Min really doesn't know about this, he has been taking care of the endgame in the army since the war, and he didn't expect such a thing to happen, it's really ...... How unreasonable! At the end of the day, he roared, waving his glass and spilling the wine everywhere.

Seeing the wine flying, everyone hurriedly got up and dodged. Seeing this, Zhao Min hurriedly stepped to Cao Kai's side in a panic, took out a silk towel to wipe Cao Kai, and apologized in his mouth. As he was wiping, he suddenly remembered something and shouted: "Min knows!" It must be the remnants of the rebel army who pretend to be our army and infiltrate the armory to steal military supplies! Alas, it's all to blame for Min's incompetence, and his failure to completely annihilate the rebels, resulting in elbows and armpits, and Min is ashamed! After saying that, he sighed and shook his head, but suddenly approached Cao Kai's side, and said in a low voice: "Since the adult's military arsenal is uneasy, it is better to send the adult's military materials to Pingshou City for resettlement, and it will definitely be strictly guarded, and there will be no more accidents!" ”

Cao Kai was taken aback by Zhao Min who suddenly came over, and hurriedly took half a step back, shaking his hands: "No need, the king of Beihai has good intentions, Cao Mou strengthened his vigilance, and forgive a small group of rebels can't set off any storms!" "What are you kidding, if you really send all the armaments over, God knows how many more.

In fact, Cao Kai really blamed Zhao Min, Zhao Min really didn't look down on his little armament. Now that the great development of Jimo is imminent, there is no shortage of food and materials, and there are soldiers and armor from the secret cave of Tan Island in front of them, how can they still look at Cao Kai's broken copper and iron. However, Zhao Min's real intention was to induce Cao Kai to say what Fang Cai said.

"Since the boss also knows that this matter was done by the rebels, he naturally knows that he has strengthened his vigilance, but it is abrupt, forgive his sins! Ha ha! ”

Cao Kai was speechless for a while, and he shouted in his heart that he was fooled. This kid suddenly approached, because people's natural physiological reactions subconsciously chose to avoid it, so that not only did the momentum fall down, but also inadvertently followed the other party's words in a frightened state, which led to gaffes. Cao Kai was angry in his heart, and was caught by Zhao Min's words, and couldn't help but be secretly annoyed, and at the same time hated this kid for being cunning. With this mistake, the topic is unsustainable. It has been characterized as theft, what else? If it really makes trouble, not only can Zhao Min not be able to do anything, but he may be publicized and be given the title of incompetence, so this dumb Cao Kai is doomed.

However, just when Cao Kai was depressed and thought that this matter was hopeless, Zhao Min suddenly took the initiative to speak: "Although I don't know how the boss lost, but seeing the adult's calm appearance must be nothing more than scabies." Therefore, Min still has one thing to ask for. ”

Cao Kai secretly hated in his heart, and said angrily at the moment: "The King of the North Sea is just talking about it." ”

Zhao Min respectfully bowed, and then said sincerely: "Min's labor expedition is hundreds of miles away, and the soldiers are extremely tired. However, after all, Jimo is small and scarce, and money and food are scarce, so it is actually unsustainable...... I also mentioned in the previous letter to the state capital that I hope that the boss will support some military rations and military funds for the sake of our army's hard work, and don't chill the hearts of all the soldiers because of the pain of freezing and starvation! ”

Cao Kai's squinted little eyes widened, and he almost didn't mention it in one breath. Do you dare to be more shameless? Deceived me, the crossbow machine is not to mention, and now you have to rob the money and food! Cao Kai stared at Zhao Min for a moment, and when he saw that Zhao Min still looked sincere, he couldn't help but laugh angrily: "Okay, good!" Since the king of Beihai was short of materials, Cao was unable to stay in trouble, so he asked the king of Beihai to go to our army to get himself! With a flick of his sleeves, he didn't even care about etiquette, and walked away, leaving the state government staff at a loss, looking at each other. After a long time of silence, after all, they had to leave one by one.

After everyone left, Xiahou Ying came to Zhao Min's side with some worry, and said in a low voice: "After all, Lord Cao is the chief official of the state capital, and our army will have to look up to people under his jurisdiction in the future, so offended so badly, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to me in the future!" ”

Zhao Min's eyes stared at the residual wine on the table, and let out a cold snort: "Uncle thinks that I will return the armament today, and he will take care of me in every way in the future?" Some people can not offend, and naturally do not offend; But if you are offended, you must be offended enough! After speaking, he ignored Xia Houying and went back to the backyard alone, leaving Xia Houying thinking hard in the same place.
