Chapter 136: Someone Asks to See

Xiao Lu was in a hurry, Xu Han had no choice but to put down the work in his hand, raised his head and sighed helplessly at him, and said, "I will find a way to solve this matter, you first help me find some people to make some sandbags, and try to do as much as possible." ”

Xiao Lu pursed his lips and left with a reluctant face.

It took her an hour to finally get the stack of questionnaires in her hand in order. As she expected, Ye Chengcai's answer did meet the conditions she needed to hire, and the score was not bad, ranking in the top three. She wanted to invite her, but it was a pity that she was also an important position in the state order of Zhuzhou, and she had a bright future in the future.

"Miss, there are people waiting for you outside." A guard hurriedly ran in and said to Xu Han, who was sorting out the results.

Xu Han asked without raising his head: "What person?" Don't you know that the Odd Corps doesn't allow outsiders to come in? ”

The guard hesitated and explained, "Miss, we have been talking to him all afternoon, and he is still standing there, saying that if you don't see him, he will wait at the door until you come out tomorrow." ”

Xu Han was stunned for a moment, put down the pile of questionnaires in his hand, frowned and muttered: "Is it difficult for this person to still want to learn Cheng Men Lixue?" You go down first, and if he wants to wait, let him wait! If everyone learns from him, what has become of our Odd Corps? ”

The guard swallowed, not knowing whether he thought she was too strict or something else, bowed his head and replied with some disappointment, turned around and walked out slowly.

Xu Han saw that her steps were a little slow, obviously not the same as usual, so he called her again: "You come back!" Let me ask you, did you come to report after receiving money from others? ”

When the guard heard this, he immediately denied it, and his voice was resolute: "Miss, although the little one is not wealthy, but at least he understands the truth that women love money and should take it properly, how could they do such a thing?" ”

Xu Han nodded and exclaimed: "Since you know this, then I will believe you for the time being, you go back and tell that person that the Odd Corps is not allowed to enter and leave at will except for those who have granted it, and there are no rules and no rules, let him wait if he wants to!" ”

The guard was shocked, cheered up, answered loudly, and turned and ran away.

Xu Han quickly forgot about this matter, and at night, the changeable sky actually thundered, and it didn't take long for the rain to pour down, and only thunder and rattling rain could be heard outside the window.

After she finished revising the lesson plan for each class, she remembered the person reported by the guards in the afternoon, and her heart moved, and she couldn't calm down anymore to write. I simply stood up, looked for an umbrella and walked towards the gate.

The original training ground of the Qi Corps was in the back, but after the expansion of the recruitment, she discussed with Chen Guangwen and Sun Mei and cut down the entire forest in front of the field, filled it and then set the gate on the edge of the flat land, and went downhill when it came out of the gate. Walk down the slope for about 20 kilometers to reach the city of Zhuzhou, ride a horse, you can reach it in half a day, and if you walk, it will take a day to arrive.

Despite this, the food she ordered for the Odd Corps was all ordered from a farm in the western suburbs of the city. They set out every day at the fourth watch, and when they arrived at the Odd Corps, when it was dark, the person in charge of the kitchen would come to the door to answer them.

According to the rules she set, there must be one meat dish at every meal, chicken, duck, beef, mutton and pork, etc., which will be changed every day, and the vegetarian dishes are some seasonal vegetables, and the varieties are relatively small. Fortunately, the cook's skills are good, and there are many soldiers who add food to each meal, and the evaluation given is also good.

Yanguo people don't like pork very much, first, here, pigs are lazy and delicious in people's impressions, and they are very low-class animals, and eating pork is equivalent to lowering their status. So not to mention the nobles of the family, even the common people, they rarely eat pork.

Second, at this time, there is no castration technology at all, the pigs without castration are short-tempered, the meat yield is low, and eat a lot, and the valuable labor is used to raise pigs with high costs just to eat meat is not cost-effective, so the people who raise pigs are very few. In addition, pig breeding bacteria are also very powerful, the breeding process is easy to get sick, and the pig without castration tastes very sassy and not delicious, so few nobles eat pigs raised by the family, and he mainly eats porpoises, that is, piglets that are only one month old.

She remembers that she started eating pork from Su Dongpo, because Dongpo meat mainly uses a lot of spices and thick sauce and vinegar to cover up the smell of pork, and ordinary people can't afford to eat such an expensive dish. Over time, if you want to eat a meal of pork, you have to order it separately.

The pork prepared by the farm she was looking for was all pigs raised by other people's families in the city of Zhuzhou, and every month they would have someone to find suitable pigs, and after killing them, all of them would be transported to the Odd Corps, and the price was naturally relatively cheap. That's why they only kill a maximum of one pig a month.

There was a distance from the residence to the gate, the rain was too heavy, Xu Han held an umbrella, and his heels were still wet with the rain. When I came to the gate, the guards who had come to report in the afternoon were sitting in the room resting. The guards at the gate were divided into two parts, one team stood guard on the upper floor, and the second team stood guard at the door. When they are on duty, the next room is their duty room and lounge.

The guard may not have rested yet, and as soon as he saw Xu Han coming this way, he immediately stood up and helped Xu Han collect the umbrella, and asked, "Miss, why are you here?" ”

Xu Han didn't answer, she turned her head and glanced outside the door, and asked, "Is the person you passed through in the afternoon gone?" ”

The guard was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect her to ask about this, he immediately shook his head, and then pointed to a big tree not far away, and said, "We persuaded him for a long time, but he didn't leave, and when it rained, I saw him go to hide under the tree." ”

Xu Han squinted at the big tree for a long time and didn't find anyone there, so he had to give up and said: "You called him over to me, and now it's still thundering, standing under the tree, isn't he afraid of being killed by thunder?" ”

The guard hurriedly ran over, not even taking an umbrella. Xu Han stood there helplessly staring over there, for fear that a thunderbolt would come and even the people and trees would be destroyed.

The man who had been waiting all afternoon hid under the tree, and the pole of the big tree was hollow when it was low, and the man crouched in it. The guard was so strong that he grabbed the man's shirt in one hand and hurried towards the gate.

When she got closer, she saw that the man was dirty, and the rain had drenched him, and the late autumn weather made him shiver from the cold. I don't know if it was the dirt that rubbed all over my face in the tree hole just now, and I was washed by the rain like this, and my face was black and white, which was very embarrassing.

"You take him to wash it first, and then change into a clean and warm set of clothes." Xu Han wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at him for a long time before ordering the guard.
