In the face of Feng Manlou's unhurried bearing, everyone was suddenly stunned, and the leader reacted first and said: "Don't talk nonsense, Lord Feng is a rare good official." How could you do such a thing! His old man wished that our levee was strong, why did he still break it? ”

After speaking, he beckoned everyone to prepare for the fight, Feng Manlou knew that he might not be able to escape this fight, and hurriedly said to Xiaoyun and Xue Ba: "Run!" But it was too late, and it was already surrounded by everyone.

The leader smiled: "I haven't seen such a person yet, big guy, give me a beating!" ”

Feng Manlou felt that his fists were about to fall on his body, but suddenly, he only heard the crackling sound of his fists and feet, but it did not fall on himself. It's just a man standing in front of him,

Feng Manlou looked at it, but it was Xiaoyun's critical moment, and he used his body to protect himself, and Feng Manlou was moved in his heart. looked at it again, but it was Xue Ba who fought with those people. Good guy, three or five big men, although he is holding tools such as shovels and hoes, he is not close to Xue Ba's body.

The scene became hot for a while. At this moment, I suddenly heard a voice shouting, "Stop! Stop it! ”

The people outside saw that Qin Hun was coming, and they hurriedly stopped, after all, Qin Hun was old and lacked energy, and the people who were fighting inside didn't hear it at all.

Qin Hun just said: "Stop, this is Lord Feng is here!" ”

When the people outside heard this, they hurriedly rushed in, stopped the people in the besieging circle inside, and shouted: "Don't fight, this is Lord Feng!" ”

When everyone heard this, they quickly stopped! Looking at the battle situation, the three people were fine, but a few workers were lying on the ground and screaming. It is Xue Ba's masterpiece.

Qin Hun approached, saluted to the wind manlou, and said: "Lord Feng forgives the sin, the villains have eyes and don't know Mount Tai!" ”

As soon as everyone heard this, Old Man Qin said that it was Lord Feng, it must be Lord Feng, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground, shouting spare his life or something.

Feng Manlou said with a smile: "Everyone's mood to protect the embankment, this official understands it very well. Everyone works together, the official is very pleased, everyone is not guilty, there is no need to do this! ”

looked at a few people lying on the ground, took out the silver ticket of Huitong Money Bank from his arms, about three or four yuan, and said: "Xiaoyun, take this money and share it for everyone, it can be regarded as the cost of soup and medicine for everyone!" ”

The leader's attitude suddenly turned one hundred and eighty degrees, and he hurriedly said: "My lord, I can't help it, I can't help it!" It was originally the fault of the villains, but how could they bother the adults to compensate for the cost of soup and medicine, which was torturing the villains. ”

Those who were lying on the ground were already frightened at this moment, but they heard Xue Ba say: "Let you dare to be rude to adults, if it weren't for my Xue Ba's mercy, I'm afraid you won't be able to get off the ground if you don't lie down for ten days and a half months!" ”

Those who were lying on the ground did not fall down for a while, but they did not hurt their muscles and bones, and after a while, they got up, and quickly knelt down to kowtow to Feng Manlou, but said in their mouths: "My lord's forgiveness, my lord's forgiveness!" ”

You must know that if you provoke other officials, I am afraid that everyone will at least end up in prison, and if it is serious, it will inevitably lead to the destruction of the family.

Feng Manlou said: "Since everyone is fine, this money will be settled." Uncle Qin, take this money to buy some good wine and food, and in the afternoon, the official will have dinner with everyone! ”

When everyone heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed that the adults did not blame themselves. But he listened to the wind and said: "This official is here to check the quality of the embankment, and you must complete it with quality and quantity." ”

Qin Hun nodded hurriedly, but listened to Feng Manlou say, "Go and bring the chisel and hammer used by the stonemason." ”

A chisel is an iron rod that is sharpened at one end and blunt at the other. When using it, first take the end of the chisel tip, put it on the top of the stone, hold the chisel in one hand, hold the hammer in the other, and hit the blunt end of the chisel with the hammer again and again, so that slowly down, the stone will be chiseled one by one. Then, he stuck the clip in the hole and struck the punch with a sledgehammer so that the stone was chiseled open.

At this time, a stonemason had already taken out his tools, and Feng Manlou said: "Chisel out this section by a foot!" ”

Everyone looked at each other, why did the embankment that had been repaired with great difficulty still be chiseled!

However, when Lord Feng spoke, no one dared to disobey, so a stonemason began to chisel, and in a short time the smooth surface on the outside was chiseled.

Feng Manlou signaled to stop and looked at it himself. Good guy, but it turns out that these cements are not expensive, although they are mixed with sand, but there is very little gravel mixed in.

Feng Manlou looked at it again and asked, "Who is in charge of these?" ”

The man who looked like the foreman who was in charge just now stepped forward and said, "My lord, these are the small ones in charge!" ”

Feng Manlou looked at him and asked, "This official asked you, why do you use so much cement and so little gravel?" ”

The man said, "My lord, when the cement is dry, it is harder than stone, so I add more, so that I can build a good embankment!" ”

Feng Manlou smiled, laughing helplessly, so he had to explain: "Although this cement is relatively hard, there are many particles, which cannot be worn out at all, the quality is not very good, and after a long time, it is easy to weather, not to mention resisting the flood, it will be washed away by the flood!" ”

When everyone heard Feng Manlou say, they were shocked, this cement was made by Lord Feng, and I am afraid that no one knows cement better than him.

The man only felt a tingling of his scalp, and it seemed that he had made a big mistake in a daze, and asked in a smumbled voice, "My lord, how can I remedy it now?" ”

Feng Manlou said helplessly: "The best remedy is to knock it all out and do it all over again!" ”

When everyone heard this, it turned out that they had built the embankment for so long, but it was useless? If it were to be completely rebuilt, it would be time-consuming and labor-intensive, and how much would be wasted with the cement alone.

Qin Hun stood up and said, "My lord, this section of the embankment has been repaired for more than 20 zhang, and it has already cost nearly 100 yuan, if it is rebuilt, it will be a waste!" Besides, now that winter is coming, it will be windy by the river, and if the workers are cold, this body can't stand it! ”

Feng Manlou thought for a while and said, "Since this is the case, the quality must not be sloppy." Then mix in some more gravel and build another layer outside the embankment, at least half a foot thick, this time it must be sloppy! ”

Qin Hun asked: "My lord, this embankment is already very good, compared to the previous embankment, it is countless times better, even if it is a big flood, we are not afraid, and it is higher than the previous embankment." If you add half a foot higher, it's already very high. ”

Feng Manlou said nonchalantly: "It's okay, either tear it down and start over, or increase it!" ”

Qin Hun was helpless, and said to everyone: "What are you still doing in a daze? Don't hurry up yet! ”

This time, Feng Manlou personally commanded, who knew that the days in late autumn were short, and soon in the afternoon, Feng Manlou and everyone had dinner on the construction site.

This is very touching to everyone, and this is the best performance of eating and working with everyone. Where is there a dam that you don't work hard, and it's still for everyone, it's for everyone.

This meal was no different from the previous few days, but everyone felt extraordinarily sweet. After eating, everyone casually tinkered with the embankment, and soon it was dark.

That Qin Hun kept inviting Feng Manlou to be a guest at home, but Feng Manlou couldn't get rid of it, so he had to bring Xiaoyun and Xue Ba together.

Entering Qin Hun's house, there is a kitchen when he enters the door, and then there is a small hall inside, a hungry place for eating and meeting guests, and there are three side rooms inside.

The house is all brand new brick houses, Qin Hun said: "Thanks to my lords, our family's old house was washed away by the last flood. This house was repaired at the expense of the proprietor of Huitong Bank! ”

"Oh? Huitong Bank? Feng Manlou was stunned for a moment, and then realized that it should be the one he proposed, and the house should still be under mortgage.

"How? Lao Qin? Feng Manlou asked, "Is this house okay?" ”

Qin Hun hurriedly said, "It's just too good." Speaking of which, the proprietor of Huitong Money Village is really a good person, who paid us to repair the house and let us live for free. It's just that this title deed is also in Huitong Bank. Now we still have a little more money every month, and we will pay it back in ten years! Counting, there are one hundred and fifty runs, and if you build a new house like this, it will only look like one hundred and twenty runs! ”

Feng Manlou said with a smile: "Then Lao Qin, what do you mean, this house is very expensive, why are you so happy, saying that the owner is a good person?" ”

Qin Hun said: "My lord doesn't know, although this house has to charge interest, but we have money, we can redeem the title deed at any time, and the subsequent years are not interest." Even if the money is repaid and redeemed after ten years, it is only thirty yuan of profit. In previous years, we had to borrow money from Chase Bank, but in a year, there were more than 30 yuan just to make money! ”

Speaking of this, Qin Hun took a sip of water and continued: "That's why I said that the owner of Huitong Qianzhuang is really a good person. My lord, I heard that the owner of Huitong Money Village is a little lady, and she is engaged to adult, is this the case? ”

Feng Manlou said with a smile: "Exactly, the idea of Qianzhuang to repair the house is still the head of the county yamen, otherwise, where is Huitong Qianzhuang!" ”

When Qin Hun heard this, he said, "Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations!" Adults are really blessed, having such a good wife, it is simply Guanyin Bodhisattva descending to earth. The adults and the proprietor of the Huitong Money Village are simply a pair of compassionate fairy couples, which is really a blessing for the people of Yuhang! ”

Feng Manlou smiled happily and said, "Old Qin, don't be a sycophant!" I'm embarrassed to hear this! ”

Qin Hun said with a straight face: "My lord, this is the words of the grass people, can you know, there is a saying among the people of Yuhang, do you know?" ”

Feng Manlou was stunned for a moment and asked, "What words?" ”

Qin Hun said: "The people are rumored: don't worship Buddha during the New Year, don't worship God during the New Year, only for Fengzhi County, not worship the God of the Stove King!" ”

When Feng Manlou heard this, he said: "Old Qin, you can't talk nonsense, it's weird!" ”

Qin Hun said: "My lord, the people are really happy with you. Before the words were finished, he saw Qin Hun's wife coming out of a side room inside.

Qin Hun asked, "Burning incense again?" ”

His wife said, "Of course, one day there can't be no less than Lord Feng's offerings!" ”

When Feng Manlou heard this, he suddenly felt a burst of horror in his heart, this was to treat himself as a dead man, but he heard Qin Hun say: "Old eyes are dizzy, let me tell you, this prince is Fengzhi County!" ”

When his wife heard this, she was immediately happy, and hurriedly smiled and went to rummage through the cabinets, she must take out the best food to entertain Feng Manlou, Feng Manlou was so frightened by the two old men, where are you willing to stay longer, and she is about to say goodbye!

A voice outside the door said, "Dad, there are two observers outside, saying that they are looking for Lord Feng!" "A strong man in his thirties is Qin Hun's son.

When Feng Manlou heard this, he hurriedly said goodbye and left, but saw that it was Sun Hu Wang Ying.

Sun Hu said: "My lord, I finally found you, hurry back to the county office, someone is coming from Beijing!" ”
