"First send two people to beat horses into Beijing and inform me of the problems here. It doesn't hurt to stay here for a few more days, Shopkeeper Zhao's body can't be easily tired and bumpy. ”

After nightfall, Chu Feng and the others gathered together to discuss the arrangements for the next few days.

"The capital should send someone over, and when the time comes, someone will take care of the shopkeeper Zhao, so it doesn't matter if we leave first or go together. Now it seems that the people's hearts are quite stable, so the most critical question is what to do with those goods. ”

Chu Feng said, looking at Fan Qiubai: "Fan Niangzi, after all, it is the Fan family's things that are lost." Whether to go to the county town immediately to sue the official, or send someone to find it, I'm afraid you have to make up your mind. ”

"I ...... Actually, I don't understand anything. Fan Qiubai shrank slightly, but gradually relaxed under Chu Feng's stable gaze, "Actually, according to my thoughts, there is nothing wrong with looking like this now. At least no one was injured or anything like that, and it was probably the luckiest thing to be spared. If someone is really sent to find it, the possibility of this recovery ......"

"Naturally, the odds are slim." Now, Chu Feng can naturally speak out.

He smiled and continued, "But I think, having said that, there is always something to try. Moreover, so many of us stay here, more than 20 people, if we have nothing to do, after a long time, it is inevitable that something will happen. In my opinion, it is better to send some trustworthy people back the way they came, and to inquire around, even if they really find nothing, it is better than being idle here. Fan Niangzi. What do you see? ”

"Okay, just do what Chu Langjun said." Fan Qiubai naturally agreed.

Chu Feng nodded. smiled and said: "It's just that I'm afraid that Fan Niangzi will be chosen by you, after all, these are the Fan family." Whoever is trustworthy and who is more careful, all need Fan Niangzi's screening. ”

Fan Qiubai smiled: "I don't know much about other things, but I am still familiar with these people in the Fan family." Hu Luo is a person who can be of great use, and he is also quite prestigious among these people, so let him lead the team to find it. Well, how many people do you bring? ”

"Seven or eight." Chu Feng thought for a moment, "This side can't be separated from people, the two gentlemen's daily care." and Fan Niangzi, your daily life and diet, this all need manpower. Moreover, after all, there is still a part of the goods left, plus the gold and silver we take along the way, we always need someone to take care of it. ”

"Chu Lang doesn't have to worry too much, we two old men are usually quiet. Lao Cheng has Xiao Liuzi to take care of him, I have Lao Zhang's support, and others don't have to. Mr. Wen Duan listened. At this time, he said with a smile.

"Originally, it was for everyone's convenience to go all the way north, but I didn't expect to incur such a disaster, which disturbed the two seniors, and the slave family apologized in advance."

Speaking of which. Fan Qiu's face was white, and he bowed to the two gentlemen sitting opposite.

"It doesn't have to be, the two of us are this age after all. Although we have never seen any strong winds and waves, such small things cannot disturb the two of us. Ha ha. You young people have handled things very well, and it seems that we two old fellows don't need to bother with it. Lao Cheng. You say, don't you? Mr. Wen Duan said with a smile.

"Yes," Mr. Cheng Yuan also smiled, "I see that Chu Langjun and Fan Niangzi are in charge of big and small things, and they are not flustered, and they don't look panicked when they encounter things." Well, it's a bit of a general. ”

Fan Qiubai blushed when he heard this. Chu Feng couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said, "Why do the two gentlemen tease us, it's just that they are just trying to do some foolish things." ”

……

……

Chu Feng is not a person who can strategize, he asked himself if he didn't have this talent, nor did he have this ability and scheming. He just thinks about the problems he faces from the perspective of an outsider, how to deal with them, how to arrange them, and how to make everyone feel comfortable and in a suitable position as much as possible...... These things are what Chu Feng has the ability to think of.

As for Fan Qiubai, it was gradually proved in the next few days that she was also a person with this ability, and even in terms of face-to-face, she was much better than Chu Feng.

Chu Feng can think of some things, but Fan Qiubai can really do some things.

She could stand there sparsely, smile under the lingering willow branches, and then lightly open her lips to say something, and the other party would obey the order.

And this kind of obedience is often not forced, but a very active commitment. Maybe she wanted to take on something for this girl who seemed too fragile, or maybe she was moved by her unscrupulous warmth...... In short, it's something close to charisma. The Fan family likes to obey Fan Qiubai's orders, and this is the result of reality.

Chu Feng naturally does not have this kind of personality charm. Unlike Fan Qiubai, he can remember everyone's name, appearance, and even understand their temperament and family.

When she always tells the task, she uses gentle words like water to inadvertently touch the softest part of the other party's heart. Moreover, Chu Feng carefully observed on the side, Fan Qiubai did not do this deliberately, but she really cared about those trivial but gentle things.

"Uncle Liu, this matter is going to trouble you to run to the town. By the way, I remember that you have an old waist injury, is this kind of exhaustion not good for a back injury? I remembered, before going on the road, the third brother specially took some medicine for bruises, I will talk to Brother Sun in a while, and ask him to help you leave two stickers......"

"Sister Wang, these days have really tired you. Do you want to send a letter home first? I'll ghostwrite for you, and let them help you out a little bit in the afternoon, or your kids will be worried......"

Words like this, with the graceful tone of the Jiangnan girl, I am afraid that no matter how hard the heart is, it will be slowly melted.

Fan Qiubai is exactly such a person.

Chu Feng has been watching from the sidelines for the past few days, and he has to admire her.

The people sent out to find the lost paintings and calligraphy have not yet returned, so the government naturally went to report early, but counted on the local officials to do something. Naturally, it's unlikely. After all, it is impossible to tell where the paintings and calligraphy were lost.

Although the power of the Fan family is not small. But it will not affect such a small township near Xuzhou. The officials adhered to the attitude that more things are better than less, and politely accepted the case. politely invited the Fan family to report to the official out, so it was over.

This is something that can be guessed for a long time, and I don't care too much about it.

Shopkeeper Zhao's body and bones recovered quickly, after all, the body foundation is still very good, and he is not as old as he is frightened.

When his spirit was getting better just now, the shopkeeper Zhao was still worried about the miscellaneous affairs of the more than 20 people in the Fan family, Feibai told Chu Feng and Fan Qiubai about the arrangements one by one, and told him with a smile that he didn't have to worry about it, just recuperate with peace of mind.

Shopkeeper Zhao listened. I almost couldn't believe it, I asked clearly about the details, and after thinking about it, I realized that I didn't have any better opinions, so I lay back on the bed.

"Feibai, these ideas were all come up with by the little lady herself?" Shopkeeper Zhao still couldn't believe it, "Mr. Lu and Mr. Cheng should have paid a lot of attention, right?" ”

"No, most of them were thought up by Chu Langjun. It's just that the little lady is doing it, hehe. Feibai brought a bowl of medicine, and took out a few candied fruits from the small cloth bag on his waist with a smile, "Shopkeeper Zhao, are you afraid of hardship?" After you finish drinking the medicine. I've got preserves to eat! It's a candied apricot! ”

"Uh, there's no need...... shopkeeper Zhao awkwardly dismissed Feibai's enthusiasm and drank a bowl of soup and medicine with a bang. I thought silently in my heart: Although Chu Langjun seems to have a good temperament, he also has some skills in calligraphy and painting. But after all, he is a character from a small family, this kind of management of people. It can't be so clear. said that it was Chu Langjun's arrangement, but it was really unlikely...... Perhaps, it's just a way for those two gentlemen to take the opportunity to raise a name for Chu Langjun, well, it should be so......

Such a thought surfaced in the heart of Shopkeeper Zhao.

Managing people is indeed a difficult thing to learn in this era. After all, no one can teach, and unless they are actually in that position, there is no way to have any practical experience.

And in this era when most civilizations are engaged in male farming and female weaving, it is indeed rare to be able to manage people and things. Unless it is an official, a treasurer, or an elder or a master in the family, few people can touch this kind of problem.

The most important thing is that this kind of problem-solving method, mentality, leadership skills, etc., can hardly be taught by words, but must be practiced by hand.

Fortunately, for Chu Feng, on this issue, he wants to thank the term "quality education". Although this term has not brought many changes to actual education, I have to admit that in some schools, some changes have been made to the lives of students according to this term.

Having students organize their own events, give speeches, do some things outside the school to raise donations, do volunteer work, etc., can really give students a lot of education that is different. Although such things are rare, they do exist, and Chu Feng was naturally forced or willing to participate in them. He may not be an active member of the student council, but he does small activities, such as helping teachers organize and arrange exhibitions of calligraphy and paintings. Of course, these are just small things.

However, for the people of this era, what Chu Feng learned in these activities has been able to explain a lot of problems and achieve some very unusual results.

But others don't know, which is why Shopkeeper Zhao will be suspicious of him.

Of course, whether to doubt or not, the strength of leadership, this in itself is not something that Chu Feng cares about.

He simply did what he could to help some of his own concerns...... Even people who like it. So much for.

This life lasted for six days.

In the early morning of the seventh day, when Chu Feng and the others lived in the small village until the early morning of the seventh day, when the morning light had not completely penetrated the earth, the people and horses who heard the news from Bianliang City in Tokyo arrived here.

"Qiubai, let me see you!"

A dusty middle-aged man flew off his horse, strode forward, and pressed Fan Qiubai's shoulder.

"Daddy......"

Fan Qiubai held a lamp in his hand, and the light reflected the pale sideburns of the man opposite, as well as the mud splashed on his robe. She originally wanted to say something, but after calling out a "Daddy", the emotions that had been accumulated and suppressed in the past few days suddenly rushed to her chest from all over her body, and it was as if she was fiercely suppressed by something, so she continued to impact and swirl in her chest, and finally turned into a jar of mixed flavors.

A golden light appeared on the horizon in the east, and although it had not shone on the body, it seemed to have a heat, warming people's hearts.

The light in his hand echoes it from afar, so that the lantern bearer's eyes are intertwined with a misty bright spot of light, so that people can't see the face in front of them clearly.

His nose was involuntarily sour, and Fan Qiu's eyes were red.

"My good daughter! I knew I shouldn't have let you go alone! The man clenched his fists, gently stroked the top of his daughter's head, and said sincerely, "Next time you go down to Jiangnan, or come back from Jiangnan, your father will definitely send you and pick you up in person!" Nothing like this will ever happen again! Qiubai, you must be frightened! ”

"Why!" Fan Qiubai laughed sweetly, and couldn't help but have some coquettishness in her voice that was not common on weekdays, "My daughter is not a child anymore, although she is not as powerful as her father and brothers, she can always do a little thing." ”

"Owner! It's all small and poorly taken care of! Please punish you! Shopkeeper Zhao stepped forward with a heavy face, and knelt on the ground with a puff of his placket, "Because of the small dereliction of responsibility, the Fan family lost tens of thousands of calligraphy and paintings, not to mention, and the little lady was frightened!" In the past few days, the little one has been sick in bed again, if it weren't for the little lady, I don't know what trouble would happen. ”

The man frowned slightly, stepped forward to help the shopkeeper Zhao, and said in a deep voice: "I haven't figured out what is going on, although you can't escape this responsibility, but it's not like that." Don't worry, go back and talk about it! ”

"Yes, Daddy!" Fan Qiubai hurriedly said, "Those calligraphy and paintings are lost, no matter how powerful the shopkeeper Zhao is, he doesn't have the power to see and hear in all directions." What everyone hasn't noticed can't be blamed entirely on Shopkeeper Zhao. ”

The man smiled when he heard this, and couldn't help but reach out and rub Fan Qiubai's head: "Okay, listen to my daughter." ”

"Daddy!" Now in front of everyone, it is too undignified for my father to show such an appearance. Fan Qiubai's face turned red, and he couldn't help but snort softly and stomped his feet.

Seeing that his daughter didn't seem to be frightened, but because of the relationship that she hadn't seen for a few months, she had grown a little more, the man couldn't help but feel very emotional, and an indescribable joy welled up in his heart.

"Father, I almost forgot. I'll take you to meet Mr. Lu and Mr. Cheng quickly! Don't keep them waiting, that's rude! Fan Qiubai remembered something, and hurriedly led his father to the village, "Yes, there is also a Chu Langjun, who is the apprentice of the two gentlemen." Things have been complicated these days, thanks to his help! ”

Life is really up and down, and there are a lot of things at the trough today, and I lost the manuscript halfway through the code...... Fortunately, it caught up in the end.

Fortunately, tomorrow, the sun will rise as usual. O(∩_∩)O(To be continued.) )
