Chapter 325: The Great Net
Chilblains are localized erythematous inflammatory skin lesions caused by prolonged exposure to cold.
Typical lesions are localized phalangeum, broad bean-sized, dark purplish-red raised edematous plaques or indurations, with unclear borders, bright red margins, bluish-purple in the center, tight and shiny surface, cold to the touch, faded under pressure, and slow recovery after decompression.
It is not very difficult to treat ice sores, but there is a prerequisite, that is, the patient should stay in a warm place and take some Chinese medicine for seven or eight days.
However, Jiang Long is busy with affairs, where can he stay in a room with a stove every day?
As a result, the recovery is much slower.
The day after Jiang Long returned to Lingtong County, goose feathers and heavy snow fell from the air.
After dealing with things at noon that day, Jiang Long returned to the backyard, patted off the snowflakes on his body, and walked into the bedroom. ”
"Hmm."
Jiang Long took off his gloves and first tested the temperature, and then drank the ginger soup in one gulp.
Dai Lisi took the bowl and pulled Jiang Long to the table and sat down, "The matter is over?" ”
"Well, it's not a big deal, it's just that Xia Lin took people out to patrol the streets, and caught back more than a dozen people involved in gambling, most of them are honest and honest, only a few people are idle lazy people, these lazy people don't do coolies themselves, and they specialize in using gambling equipment to lure honest people into gambling addiction." Jiang Long said: "Where do those honest people understand the Tao on the gambling table?
In a few days, you can lose months of hard-earned wages. ”
"What do you do with catching those idle scoundrels?"
"Quite simply, aren't they afraid of hardship and unwilling to earn their own wages? I punished them to clean the streets in the winter, and when the snow stopped, I would send them to the coal mine to dig coal, and I would not be paid half a penny. ”
Jiang Long sighed lightly after speaking, "There is a way to be a poor person, and there must be something hateful!" Those honest people themselves have their own faults, and they can't resist the temptation, otherwise where would they be easily fooled? I had the intention of making all the money on the table, but in the end I couldn't bear it.
It's winter now, and most of the people have no money except to go to the coal mine to work.
The family relied on the little money they earned from digging rivers to buy food and salt to make a living, and if the money was really confiscated, what would their family eat and drink? ”
"It's good to survive this winter." Delis said.
Winter is idle and has nothing to do, get together naturally to play something, those idle gangsters and then take the gambling equipment to provoke, honest people will naturally be easily fooled, but wait until the spring of the next year, the future will continue to dig artificial rivers, when the people are done every day, already tired to death, where is the mood to gamble?
"Well, when the work starts next spring, if anyone runs to the gambling table again, I won't be polite, no matter whose money it is, all the money will be confiscated, and there will be errands left and right, as long as they go to work, they will not go hungry if they are willing to work hard."
The two talked at the table and talked for a while about the business in the yamen.
Delis got up and went to the kitchen to boil medicine.
After a while, the curtain of the door was lifted, and Delis walked in with a porcelain bowl containing a black-brown decoction. Jiang Long is not a squeamish person, so he took the medicine bowl and pinched his nose and poured it down.
Delis picked up the candied fruit and handed it to Jiang Long, eating the bitter taste in her mouth.
Then it was time to eat, and the two sat down at the table to eat.
After a meal, when Jiang Long came out again, the earth was already covered in silver, Jiang Long stretched out his hand to catch a snowflake, although it was not as big as a goose feather, but it was also an inch and a half long, and it was really the first time that such a big snow Jianglong had seen it.
Hearing the sound of the door curtain being lifted behind him, Jiang Long asked, "In your hometown, is the snow so heavy?" ”
"Bigger than that." "The winter in our place is much colder than in northern Xinjiang, and it is precisely because of the harsh living environment that a large number of people freeze to death and starve to death every year, so my father and the clansmen tried every means to seize other people's rivers and mountains." ”
Jiang Long was silent.
If you have a bad living environment, you will rob others, which is no different from the grassland aliens, although it is also sympathetic, but such a bandit behavior is even more hateful.
The two walked side by side in the snow, creaking under their feet.
Walking out of the county office, the two got on horseback and walked all the way in the direction of the city gate. Tudu, Qin Yu, and Guntibak and others followed.
"Didn't you get any more assignments?"
"You are just a small county magistrate now, and you can't control the political situation of the imperial court at all, what tasks can you assign to me? The above sent a lot of beautiful beauties of the clan to the back house of the officials of Daqi, and many were tortured to death by the wives of the officials!
And those who survived were all extremely smart and ruthless.
These people are the most important thing for the organization at present, and their words and deeds can already influence the will of officials to some extent, and can bring great wealth and various benefits to the organization. ”
Jiang Long's expression was calm when he heard this, and listening to Delisi's tone, that organization had already cast a big net in secret.
I don't know how many officials in Lu Dao have been co-opted and used.
After a few moments, he returned to normal, and for now, the issue did not require him to think about.
"Bunny!"
Soon after leaving the city gate, suddenly, Delis pointed ahead and exclaimed, her beautiful face was filled with joy, and then she clapped her white and tender little hands like a child, "Grab it, hurry up and catch it." ”
Gunty Buck has already drawn his bow and arrows.
"No, I'm going to live!" Delis hurried to stop it.
"Look at me!"
Jiang Long smiled confidently and immediately rode his horse to catch up.
The speed of the snow field is like lightning, chasing a rabbit is a piece of cake, and although the snow field is tall, but the degree of flexibility is not inferior to the rabbit, within half an hour, Jiang Long took the rabbit's two long and pointed ears and folded it back.
"It's too big."
Delis was originally happy, but when she saw the rabbit, she sighed softly.
This is an adult rabbit, although the fur is snow-white, the eyes are red like jade, and it looks quite cute, but the adult rabbit has become aggressive, and can only hold the rabbit ears, otherwise the rabbit will definitely bite if he reaches over and gets close.
"Maybe there's a rabbit nest nearby." Jiang Long saw that Dai Lisi was not interested, and couldn't help but propose.
"Forget it, even if you catch a rabbit, it's not easy to feed." Delis shook her head.
Wild rabbits are different from domestic rabbits, domestic rabbits are more leathery, but they are not very easy to feed, if there is an epidemic, they will basically all die, and wild rabbits are more difficult to raise, it can also be said that they are basically not alive, and the big rabbits caught are raised in cages, do not eat or drink, and will be out of breath in a few days.
Although the rabbit can eat, it is difficult to develop completely, the rabbit's teeth are sparse and messy, and from time to time it will have diarrhea, and it is not big to raise at all.
Jiang Long knew a little bit about it, no longer reluctantly, threw it casually, and let the rabbit go.
The snow-white rabbit kicked its legs in mid-air, and immediately jumped into the distance after landing.
"Let's go back."
Just came out for a while, a layer of snowflakes fell on Dai Lisi's fox skin, and she was still worried about the chilblains on Jiang Long's hands, "The doctor told me that you must take medicine on time, and you can't freeze your hands anymore, otherwise it will be difficult to heal the sores this winter." ”
Jiang Long let out a sigh of relief and nodded slightly.
When they came to the gate, they saw a sergeant riding a horse and rushing into the gate, and then there was a shouting in the city, and the soldiers defending the city poured in and tied up the sergeant who dared to break through the gate and galloped wildly in the city.
"Do you know who I am, and how dare you tie me up?" The sergeant struggled and yelled.
"If you're not honest, I'll give you a few whips!"
The captain of the squad guarding the city scolded: "No matter what you come from, in Lingtong County, you have to act in accordance with the laws and regulations stipulated by the county magistrate, fortunately, you just broke into the city gate and did not ride a horse to bump into the people on the street, otherwise you will definitely be beaten in the ass after a meal!" ”
"You, you ......" the sergeant's face flushed with anger.
"Tell me, who are you?"
At this time, Jiang Long rode a horse to the front, his face was cold, and he asked.
I hate this kind of person who relies on identity and breaks the rules, and he thinks that he is superior to others when he comes from a little bit, and if he doesn't beat him, Jiang Long will be unhappy in his heart.
Seeing Jiang Long, the soldiers defending the city hurriedly and respectfully bent down and saluted.
The people in the vicinity all fell to their knees.
"On a snowy day, let's all get up." Jiang Long is always kind to the people when facing them.
The sergeant who broke through the city gate looked a little flustered at this time, and he didn't have the confidence he had before, it turned out that this was the Lingtong county commander who even the county guard would have a headache!
Jiang Long asked, but he didn't dare not answer, "Go back to the adult, the little one is on an errand beside the county guard." ”
Take Pang Chengan to press me?
Jiang Long sneered, "What's the important thing to come to Lingtong County?" ”
"Lord County Guard......" The sergeant was a little hesitant, he didn't want to say it, but he saw that several big men around Jiang Long were glaring at him, so he still said, "It's the news from the Chang family in the capital, and the huge people sent the small one over to pass a word to Chang Gongzi." ”
"Say!"
"Chang Shangshu asked Chang Gongzi to pack his luggage and go back to Beijing."
"Trespassing on the city gates, daring to ride a horse on the street, thinking that it did not hit the people, will be punished lightly." Jiang Long opened his mouth and said: "Pull it to the county government and hit the twenty boards!" ”
After that, leave with Delis and the others.
The sergeant did not dare to resist any longer, and let the sergeant defending the city push him in the direction of the county office.
Jiang Long assigned a sergeant to defend the city to deliver a message to Chang Qian, who was originally in Hewu County, had already returned to Lingtong County when Jiang Long went to deliver coal and daily necessities to the border earthen forts and ramparts, but his entourage was still working in the coal mine.
Halfway through, Jiang Long chuckled in his heart, and as expected, he couldn't help himself with just a minister's book.
Of course, it is mainly because this place is not on the territory of the Chang family.
Otherwise, the Chang family could have more means to deal with Jiang Long.
After Chang Qian got the letter, he almost couldn't believe his ears!
He had been waiting for his grandfather to teach Jiang Long a lesson, but he didn't want it to be this result.
