Chapter 111: Investigate
Fang Dahei, a foolish thing, how many pieces of paper did he send out? Where are the more than 200 baked cakes enough? If he accidentally causes a civil uprising, it will be more than worth the loss.
"Fang Dahei, come and protect the baked cakes!" In Chen Che's shouting, Fang Bi ran over from the back kitchen.
"My lord, what's the situation?" Fang Bi was holding two kitchen knives, and when he saw so many people, he was dumbfounded.
"You say, what's going on?" Chen Che pointed to the credentials in everyone's hands.
"I sent fifty-six sheets, someone must have drawn a fake note without permission!" Fang Bi took a look, thinking that people outside the gate are not stupid, they know how to grasp business opportunities very well!
"It makes sense, it seems that some people want to fish in troubled waters! However, which one is true and which one is false?" Chen Che was confused by the note in front of him.
"Don't worry, adult, I'll know the truth at a glance!" Fang Bi patted his chest, signaling that Chen Che didn't need to worry.
Fang Dahei squeezed in front of the baked cake stall, took a note, glanced at it, and sang loudly: "Real evidence, four big baked cakes, you are good to go!"
"A fake credential, boy, are you impatient?" someone blushed and ran away.
"Really, give the baked cakes!"
"Really!"
"Fake!
......
Three times five divided by two, Fang Bi picked up the cake in his hand, clean and neat, and after a while, he finished the work, but no one shouted injustice, and no one took it.
The news spread to thousands of households, and everyone was eager to try it, and as long as the government gave another order, everyone wanted to be the one who ran at the forefront.
Chen Che threw down the baked cake basket, grabbed Fang Bi, and said gratefully: "Old Fang, good look, thick and fine, brave and knowledgeable, please accept my worship!"
In this incident, Fang Bi made a great contribution and helped the government regain its faith, which can be said to be indispensable!
"I can't help it! I can't help it! Mr. Xiao has won the prize, hehe!" Fang Bi grinned, a little embarrassed.
"At that time, so many people were holding up the note, and they were scared to death, Lao Fang, how did you distinguish the real from the fake?" Chen Che hadn't figured it out for a while, Fang Bi's operation was a bit mysterious.
"It's nothing, no one has a circle of paper here!" Fang Bi was full of confidence.
"What kind of paper, so peculiar?" Today, Chen Che was absolutely impressed by Fang Bi.
"I saw a pile of letters in the little gentleman's bedroom, so I tore the letters into strips of paper and drew four circles on the back of the paper as proof!
"The Epistles... Letters?ah! Fang Dahei, your uncle!" Chen Che's heart tightened, and he suddenly remembered his precious letter, and couldn't help but be angry, the letters written by his ancestor and younger brother were his lifeline.
"Smack!" a big baked cake slapped on Fang Da's black face!
Fang Bi licked the sesame seeds around his mouth, and looked at the baked cake basket innocently, unable to understand what was going on for a while?
Jade Monkey Mountain, what are the advantages of this place? This conclusion was not made casually, Chen Che was like a lion inspecting the territory, and his shoes were worn out for three or four days.
In detail, the jade monkey is not a barren mountain, but the location is not good, and it seems a little deserted. Dozens of nearby villages are in their own way, ostensibly the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but for the decrees of the imperial court, it has always been this ear to listen to, and that ear to the ear, all of which have been deaf to the wind.
However, there is an exception, that is, when the court has a reward, the villages respond, and the enthusiasm is scary.
"But Dad, this mansion is built on the mountainside, in case an enemy comes to attack, can it be defended?" Chen Che climbed to the top of the mountain and looked down at the dilapidated mansion on the mountainside.
Kejiazhai's father helped Chen Che as a guide for a few days, and felt that this little gentleman was good, without an official position, and was very different from previous officials.
"Do you really dare to think, this place, how can anyone guard it, the former official master, all the year round in the Guan, there is no one who invites three or five times, and will never come here!" Speaking of these officials, Dad felt angry and funny.
"Three, five, please? You mean that sometimes you come here to sit down. Alas, but Daddy, didn't we say okay, don't you call me anymore!" Chen Che felt uncomfortable when he remembered what Daddy called him.
"Hehe, say get used to it, I'll pay attention to me ... Hehe. But my dad always forgets about this title, and it is sometimes difficult to control his lifelong habits, "When there are major events such as judging cases, preaching, and worshipping gods, I can still invite them." ”
"Just when the enemy is coming, what will they usually do?" Chen Che is very concerned about this issue, no matter what he does, it is obviously impossible to do without a stable environment.
"It's rare, just a few poor neighborhoods and broken alleys, how can anyone rob them? Come to think of it, it seems like there was a time when it was... It's a bunch of bandits. "But Daddy doesn't think there's any point in asking questions, there's nothing to grab here.
"Presumably there are quite a few of these bandits, otherwise, a few little thieves, when they come here, they will not be robbed by us!" Chen Che felt a little funny when he thought about it, the people here are not vegetarians.
"That is, there are very few thieves who have thrown themselves into the net. I remember at that time, it was a summer, the big guy bathed in the slanting light of the sunset, comfortable, the official who came at that time was a teacher, this teacher taught the master for a day, everyone listened to the old man. ”
"Teachings, lectures, you... Do you understand?" Chen Che was curious, is there such an activity as lecturing here?
"The old man is very good, and he talks about the beauty of Daji Niangniang, and the charm of a merchant king!" But the old man laughed, it turns out that the so-called lecturing refers to storytelling!
"I'm going, is this what I'm talking about?" Chen Che wanted to faint, where would there be a serious lecture?
"Yes, everyone was fascinated by what they heard, and they kept begging the master to stay for two more days, but as a result, something happened, and a large group of wolf thieves, wah-wow-wah, rushed up. ”
"Wolf thief, what is that?" Chen Che seemed to be a little familiar with this title.
"The bandit on the Golden Wolf Mountain, the year is with the wolf, the person is not human, the wolf is not the wolf, the old murderer!" But the father said this, a little sad, it seems that the teacher is very popular with everyone.
"Actually, if an official comes here, he will always send his subordinates to hide at the foot of the North Mountain, but if there is an enemy situation, he will immediately sound the gong to warn, and the adults can quickly flee to the pass along the mountainside. Alas... There are many bandits in the north, and the Jade Monkey Mountain is extremely difficult to climb, even if there is land to climb over, they will not bother with that trouble. "But what Dad said is the truth, the terrain of Jade Monkey Mountain is conducive to escape.
Chen Che looked at the mountains, and the official road that was not too wide bent down, marking a few white traces on the Jade Monkey Mountain, extending into the darkness. At the foot of the mountain, next to the official road, there are large areas of dense forest, which is similar to the foot of the Golden Wolf Village, the difference is that between the trees, several blue-gray eaves and tiles loom, it is with these villages, the Jade Monkey Mountain has added a little more fireworks.
"Did that Sect Tell Yet?" Chen Che had reason to suspect that this Sect Master was most likely the storyteller that the Golden Crow Wolf Lord had mentioned.
"The wolf thief came suddenly, and the Sect Master took a look, and the subordinates sent out were actually in the scene to listen to his lectures, no wonder no one reported the enemy!" But as soon as the old man remembered the situation at that time, he felt sorry for the Sect Lord, "However, although the situation is critical, there is still a chance to escape, as long as the Sect Master tears his clothes, blends into the crowd, and flees with the people in all directions, it must be unlikely that he will be captured alive!" Who knows, the old man did not adopt our opinions, and resolutely disagreed with such an embarrassed escape, he did not retreat but advanced, claiming that the wolf thief is also a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, but he has gone astray, as long as he is well educated, he will definitely change his evil and return to the right!"
"It's so pedantic, what is the result?" Chen Che understood that this sect was more than auspicious.
"He also talked a lot, but he was taken away by the wolf thief!" But the old man said sadly, what a good official master, he ended up with such a fate.
"Hey, I guess it's the end, if you're not enlightened, it's definitely useless to educate you, I guess those wolf soldiers don't even understand Chinese!" Chen Che sighed a little, Xiucai met a soldier, and he couldn't explain it clearly!
Sometimes, Chen Che thinks that he is also pedantic, but he is not as stupid as the Teachings, but fifty steps and a hundred steps of laughter, the bloody lesson is worth reflecting on!
"The wolf thieves are very strange, they withdrew after catching the old man, we followed and begged them to release them, but they ate a bamboo arrow and injured several old brothers...... But the old man shook his head, sometimes, in the face of robbers, there is no other way but helplessness.
"It can't go on like this, um... Unity! Unity is the only way for us to hold our heads high and live alive!"
This winter, Chen Che found the goal of action, took Mu Ying, Long Xiaoyu, and Fang Bi to visit the mountain people, lobbied around, and carried out different persuasions according to different situations, inducing them to benefit, moving them with affection, knowing them with reason, threatening them with authority, teaching them to fish, bringing them to justice, guiding them to act, reluctantly persevering, persevering, learning with perseverance, practicing virtue, Taoism with virtue, all with courtesy, doing what they like, targeted, the mobilization meeting was held countless times, and countless baskets of baked cakes were distributed, and the people's hearts were slowly condensed.
Soon, the Jade Monkey Mountain construction movement was vigorously launched, everyone rushed to the beautiful vision described by Chen Che, rolled up their sleeves and worked hard, you fought hard and I rushed to make efforts, ensure quality and quantity, and completed the defense project of Jade Monkey Mountain planned by Chen Che in advance.
After Chen Che's painstaking research and repeated deductions, the Jade Monkey Mountain has formed a fortification of nine defenses and eighteen passes, although it is not impregnable, and even some places still need to be reinforced, but compared to before, this Guanwai County Jiedu envoy's place of governance finally has a certain amount of self-preservation.
Seeing that Chen Che had lost a lot of weight, Mu Ying shouted that she was distressed every once in a while, and drove Chen Che into the house to rest without saying a word. Xiaoyu also looks distressed every day, but she is embarrassed to say it, she always thinks about how to improve her food, just hoping that Chen Che will not be malnourished and become ill from overwork.
Although such a day is hard, it is also very fulfilling.
