Chapter 211: Sitting Together
Thank you for your slippers and monthly passes!
The on-site investigation is very hard.
At the end of the day, Jiang Long's tired legs were weak.
There is a large area of land in the vicinity that can and is suitable for development, and it is not possible to explore haode in a day or two.
Jiang Long folded a few pages of drawings for Haode, put them in his arms, and rode back when the sun was about to set.
Fan Ren also followed today.
didn't say a word along the way, just silently watched Jiang Long do things.
Secondly, Jiang Lao also walked along, as long as he stopped, he would point out Qin Yu's sword technique from time to time.
Jiang Lao once said that unless his life was in danger, he would not make a move.
Show that everything is on your own!
Qin Yu has a simple brain, he can't understand local political affairs or anything, and he is also a little ignorant of the art of war.
In the future, he can only be a forward general who charges into the battle and kills the gods and Buddhas, or he can dutifully guard Jiang Long's side as a guard.
Qin Yu practiced martial arts hard, was only interested in practice, and was quite talented.
The main bookkeeper, Wang Gui, also followed with a dead face today.
There is no way, Jiang Long handed over all the affairs of the county government to Cheng Ze, why not here, and Xiao Fan to take care of it, plus there is a county official in the yamen, he has almost no power and things to do, so he made up his mind to gain Jiang Long's trust first.
Although he was a scholar, he grew up in this place, and there were very few people who were helpless.
After a busy day during the day, although Wang Gui was tired, he still gritted his teeth and survived.
But he also secretly complained, in addition to riding a horse, he often had to walk, he didn't know how many blisters and blood blisters were grinding out on the soles of his feet, and he didn't know if he could get up early tomorrow and continue to follow Jiang Long's side.
For Wang Gui, Jiang Long didn't care too much.
This person has no backers, and his career and future, even his current position, can be said to be completely in the hands of Jiang Long.
The reason why he was not assigned anything was because there was no errand to be handed over to him.
With Cheng Ze, why not be there, and Xiao Fan to help, it can be said that Jiang Long doesn't have to worry about everything in the county government at all.
When I rushed back to the county seat in dust, I saw that most of the faces of the people on the street were smiling.
The topics of conversation are almost all related to those horse bandits.
Of course, it is indispensable to praise Jiang Long.
said that Jiang Long was really wise and powerful, and he had the ability, and he took people out to chase back all the silver and salt that the horse bandits had stolen.
If the county commander has the ability, acts decisively and resolutely, and uses ruthless methods, no one dares to bully the door, and the people's life is better.
was praised by others, and more than one person praised him, Jiang Long was naturally very comfortable when he heard it.
The tiredness on his body seemed to be swept away in an instant.
deliberately slowed down the horse's pace, Jiang Long wanted to listen to a few more words.
As a result, I heard someone inquiring, saying that Jiang Long is so young, I don't know if he is engaged, if not, he can introduce one.
And how beautiful that girl was.
As soon as Jiang Long's legs clamped the horse's belly, Xueyuan immediately sped up.
Tudu and the others looked at Jiang Long's back, and they all snickered secretly.
When he arrived at the county office, the officials who passed by all greeted Jiang Long respectfully, and they were all smiling on their faces.
Jiang Long thought about it for a while, but he understood the reason.
The silver taels were recovered, and Cheng Ze and the others should have issued a fortune to the servants.
That's why everyone is happy.
The imperial court has been dragging on for two months, and this time Jiang Long personally led people to suppress bandits, which also established a high prestige in the hearts of the people and officials.
Back to the county office, Cheng Ze, why not be there, and Xiao Fan reported to Jiang Long.
Jiang Long can decentralize, but he can't ignore it.
What should be known, must be clearly understood.
How did Cheng Ze and the three of them deal with some things, Jiang Long listened more, so that he could learn.
This is said to mean that the sun goes down and it's time for dinner.
Fan Ren has been following, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but secretly think in his heart, it seems that being an official is also a very hard thing.
Especially if you want to be a good official who can benefit one party.
Jiang Long asked about the prison, and he had just caught five hundred horse bandits and locked them up, so he was naturally a little uneasy.
Why didn't he reply, saying that only the horse bandits drank two bowls of gruel today, and they didn't let them eat enough.
The bandits had just been caught, and they learned that the little leaders had all been beheaded, and now no one dared to make trouble in a panic.
When you are hungry, you can only hold on.
But after a few days, there should be people who can't stand the hunger.
"Whoever dares to make trouble at that time will be dragged out and beaten hard, so that they know how powerful it is!" Jiang Long said in an indifferent voice: "Only when you completely subdue them and don't dare to have any other thoughts, can you rest assured that you can release them to work and do things in the future." ”
With a full 500 horse bandits, plus other prisoners, it must be worrying that so many people are doing things.
So you have to tune it up first.
Otherwise, either someone will run away and make trouble, or a large number of people will have to be arranged.
"One more thing, let the five of them sit together, and whoever makes trouble in the five will be punished as well." Jiang Long said again.
This method was commonly used in the imperial court, and if one family made a mistake, five families were punished.
So several families sitting in a row will watch each other.
No one wants to be punished for nothing.
Cheng Ze, why not be there, and Xiao Fan nodded when they heard this.
After talking about things, we had dinner together, and then we went back to our rooms to rest.
Back in his room, Jiang Long walked to the cement floor that he had wiped on the ground yesterday, squatted down and touched it with his hands, because the cement was relatively thin, it was already half dry, and it should be able to dry thoroughly by tomorrow night.
As for the cement piles, the surface has not yet dried.
The palm of my hand felt damp to the touch.
The next day, Jiang Long still took Tudu and others out of the city to survey the terrain and draw drawings.
And after a day, the news that all the horse bandits in Jieziliang were surrounded and suppressed had already spread in Wangsha County.
Many people applauded and celebrated.
Ask around who exactly has surrounded and suppressed these horse bandits.
There are six or seven hundred horse bandits there!
As a result, the name of He Huan, a ranger general, resounded throughout Wangsha County.
He was praised as a big hero by the people!
There are too many people who have suffered the losses of horse bandits and have a great enmity with them.
Those with a slight identity are more aware of the inquiry.
I know the ins and outs.
It was the horse bandits who robbed the silver and salt sent to Lingtong County, which caused the newly appointed county commander surnamed Jing to be furious, and dragged the relationship to find the ranger general He Huan, and then the two teams cooperated to capture almost all the horse bandits alive in Jieziliang.
If there are higher-ranking officials, they will know more.
Because when Jiang Long cooperated with He Huan and took down the horse bandits, the imperial court report also arrived.
These officials immediately knew Jiang Long's identity.
The newly appointed county commander in Lingtong County was actually the only descendant of General Tu back then!
The surname is Jing, and the name is Jianglong.
is still a teenager, but judging from the way he does things, he is a ruthless character!
Jiang Long's deeds of following the escort team to Northern Xinjiang are also known by more people.
Serving as a county magistrate in Lingtong County is not a haode envoy, nor is it a big official position, so many officials in Wangsha County do not pay much attention to the newcomers.
That's why no one took the initiative to investigate Jiang Long's life experience.
And Jiang Long is in the capital, and even fewer people know about dragging the relationship to rescue He Huan.
That's why someone dared to fight the idea of those silver taels and salt in Lingtong County.
Now that they know Jiang Long's identity, these people can't help but feel uneasy in their hearts, I wonder if Jiang Long wants to investigate clearly?
Will it be found on their heads when the time comes?
Some people were restless, and at the same time, they were also thinking about seeing if they could find a way to get rid of Jiang Long.
Pang Cheng'an, the Taishou of Wangsha County, was appreciative of Jiang Long's behavior of capturing the horse bandits alive, and the other officials and generals here must have directly cut off the heads of the horse bandits, but Wen Shang, the governor of Xianzhou, sent someone to send a piece of paper, instructing Pang Cheng'an to find more fault with Jiang Long and find something for Jiang Long to do.
And faintly pointed out that the prince didn't like Jiang Long very much.
However, he couldn't use drastic means to hurt Jiang Long's life.
Pang Chengan just sighed, in the entire Wangsha County, only the officials he personally promoted would really be used by him.
The other officials were not convinced of him at all.
Openly supportive, but secretly perfunctory.
Pang Chengan is very dissatisfied, is he a fool?
Now it's hard to see a person who has the ability and some life experience and energy, and he is in his eyes, but he doesn't like the prince.
Pang Chengan is Wen Shang's confidant, and Wen Shang is the loyal of the prince's camp.
So even if he admired Jiang Long, Pang Chengan had to obey Wen Shang's orders in the end.
Of course, there is some pity in my heart.
Xianzhou Assassin Shi Geng Pingzhi was directly transferred from the military department, relying on seniority, his ability was relatively mediocre, and this person had no friendship with Jingfu.
However, the crown prince emphasized literature over military force, so few military attachés stood in the prince's camp.
Although he is not Wen Shang's opponent on weekdays, Geng Pingzhi has always been at odds with Wen Shang.
Jiang Qi, the governor of Wangsha County, is a veteran who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, has a lot of force at hand, and has a shrewd mind.
Although Pang Chengan has been in office for many years, he has been suppressed by Jiang Qi, the second-in-command.
Jiang Qi is naturally no stranger to the human slaughter general Jing Xian, but although Jing Xian is famous, there are also many generals in the Northern Xinjiang army who do not agree with him and belong to different camps.
If Jing Xian can live for another ten years, he may be able to completely control the Northern Xinjiang army.
But when Jingxian died, he was only in his early thirties.
There is a skill, and there is a great ability.
But after all, there is a lack of qualifications, and qualifications are highly valued by many people.
Jiang Qi's camp is opposite Jing Xian.
However, Jing Xian is Jing Xian, Jiang Long is Jiang Long, and Jiang Qi will not target Jiang Long.
After all, in Jiang Qi's eyes, Jiang Long is just a teenager who hasn't grown up.
Even if he has some ability, he has some energy in Northern Xinjiang, but he still doesn't put it in Jiang Qi's eyes.
And even though he was opposed to Jing Xian back then, Jiang Qi admired Jing Xian very much in his heart.
So if Jiang Long has something, he can't say that he has to intervene to help.
There are many factions between civil officials and military generals, and no faction will be dominant, otherwise it will definitely be suppressed and excluded by the emperor and other shili.
These factions are sometimes hostile, sometimes cooperative, and there is no such thing as mortal enmity.
It's not really intimate.
Relationship confusion.
In the first year, it was hostile, but this year it may be a joint effort.
So it's normal for Jiang Qi to have the idea of taking care of and helping Jiang Long.
