Chapter 15 Zuo Ci and the Good General
"The thieves rushed towards the county like a million lions and fought with the guards of the county! The thieves were outnumbered, outnumbered, and were defeated and retreated. At this time, Xie Taishou arrived, fearless, invulnerable, single-handed, holding a long sword, like a god descending to earth, everywhere he went, the thieves were all hacked to death by a sword! The thieves cried and cried for their mothers, and finally the thieves put down their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy. The merchant frothed and told what he had seen and heard.
The diners listened with their mouths wide open, and it was hard to imagine that this person was too good, right? Some diners didn't believe it and questioned it. "How can there be such a powerful person in the world? Can you retreat from the enemy with just one person? Are you a three-year-old child? ”
"It's true! If you don't believe it, you can go to Jinan County to inquire, women and children know about this matter! Whoever does not believe, go and inquire together. Seeing that someone questioned himself, the businessman turned his face on the spot! Slapped the case hard, stood up, and looked like someone who didn't believe it and was going to pull it to testify.
The diners looked at each other and were speechless for a moment.
"It is said that Xie Jinan treats the people like a father and treats soldiers like sons, I don't know if there is such a thing?" At this moment, a relatively tender voice came.
When everyone heard the sound, they turned their heads and saw that it was a young man carrying dry firewood on his back, who looked like he was not yet twenty years old.
"Not bad! When Xie Taishou first came to Jinan, he posted a notice that all taxes would be halved! All homeless people have porridge to eat and a place to stay! Opening the granary to relieve the displaced people, and buying grain at a high price, can be described as a rare good official! Many of our businessmen decided to buy grain everywhere and sell it to Xie Taishou at cost price, so as to do their best for Xie Taishou. As soon as Xie Chengbin was mentioned as a person, the businessman's angry face immediately changed to a respectful expression, and it was almost like a kiss on Xie Chengbin's face!
"Ahh Xie Chengbin, who was eating dinner, suddenly sneezed.
Seeing Xie Chengbin sneezing, Tai Shici's mother thought that Xie Chengbin had a cold. "Taishou works hard for the people day and night, and you should pay more attention to your body."
Compared to the bustle at noon, it is much more deserted now, and only Xie Chengbin and Tai Shici's mother and Gao Xu's daughter are left in the lobby of Nuo University. There were many women in ancient times who did not have names, and Xie Chengbin did not ask much. "Thank you Mrs. for your concern, there is no big deal with late birth, in the future, Mrs. can call the word late life, don't be too guarded and too guarded, it seems too rusty!"
Tai Shi Ci has always been filial, so if he wants Tai Shi Ci to serve himself, he must stabilize his mother, so Xie Chengbin has always been more polite to Tai Shi Ci's mother.
It is precisely because Xie Chengbin has done enough work on the surface that others think that Xie Chengbin is a good official, especially Tai Shici's mother, who not only thinks that Xie Chengbin is a good official, but also takes a fancy to his son, which makes Tai Shici's mother very grateful.
Before Tai Shici's mother could speak, a small envoy suddenly ran into the lobby and greeted Xie Chengbin. "Qi Yu is too guarded, there is an old man outside the county mansion who said that he is too far away!"
"Let it in." Xie Chengbin was a little puzzled, he didn't have any relatives in this time and space, and the other party was either insane or came to cheat and cheat!
The envoy did not leave, his expression was a little embarrassed, and he made another move. "The old man said that the old man would not come in unless he was greeted by Taishou himself."
"Oh? There is such a thing! Xie Chengbin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this, it seems that this old man is not simple! Now, Xie Chengbin has to go out in person to meet this so-called "distant family".
Originally, he thought that the other party was someone, but after coming to the door, Xie Chengbin was dumbfounded. I saw a male octogenarian sitting on the ground very without an image, leaning back against the stone lion, and raising Erlang's legs, a typical beggar dress. It doesn't matter if it's not dirty, the key is to wear only one tattered dress on such a cold day! It doesn't seem to feel cold at all.
"When I heard that a distant family was visiting, I was overjoyed in my late life, and I don't know the name of my predecessor?" Xie Chengbin stepped forward to help the old man up.
Who knew that this old man was very good, and before Xie Chengbin could get closer, he stood up. "The old man is hungry, fill his stomach first, hehe!"
After the old man finished speaking, he didn't wait for Xie Chengbin to agree, and rushed into the county mansion alone, leaving a group of dumbfounded guards and an embarrassed Xie Chengbin.
When they returned to the lobby, Tai Shici's mother and Gao Xu's daughter had disappeared, probably to avoid suspicion, and women in ancient times had no status. Only the old man sat on his throne and ate his own food. It stands to reason that if you are at home, it is natural for the elderly to sit in the main seat, but this is the county government, where the officials work, and the main seat should be occupied by the largest official.
When the old man saw Xie Chengbin coming back, he pointed to Gao Xu's daughter eating half of the food. "Ahh Zibin is here, eat, eat, don't be polite to the old man, hehe! ”
Who is the "......" and who is polite? Xie Chengbin was a little speechless, opened his mouth but didn't know how to say it, and only after three seconds could he speak. "The seniors use it slowly, and the younger generations are full."
The old man let Xie Chengbin see what is the real kung fu of a starving ghost! Xie Chengbin is big and eats a lot, even if he eats half of it, the remaining half can make a very hungry person eat enough. And so much food was wiped out by the old man in front of him! Xie Chengbin shook his head.
The old man was full and patted his stomach with satisfaction. Xie Chengbin took a few steps forward and made a gesture. "I don't know the name of my predecessor?"
"The old man has been hurrying for days, he is tired, let the old man rest for one night, and then talk about it tomorrow." The old man yawned, stood up, stretched, and ran towards the gate.
Xie Chengbin has no opinion, anyway, there are many guest rooms in the county government.
When the old man ran out of the door, Xie Chengbin remembered that the old man didn't know the way, and it would be bad if he ran to Tai Shici's mother or Gao Xu's daughter's room! In ancient times, most women regarded their reputation as very important, and they had to die or live at every turn. If that's the case, how should I explain it to Tai Shi Ci or Gao Xu? Thinking of this, Xie Chengbin shouted anxiously. "Seniors wait a minute, wait for the juniors to lead the way!"
I don't know what happened to the old man, so he refused to stop and continued to run. Xie Chengbin was in a hurry, chased them all, something strange happened! At the same time as Xie Chengbin ran, the old man suddenly added, with Xie Chengbin's extreme madness, he couldn't catch up with this octogenarian!
The old man jumped out of the corridor with lightning speed, then to the roof, and plunged headlong into it, and disappeared without a trace. At this time, Xie Chengbin seemed to have thousands of ants in his heart, and he couldn't be more curious. This old man is a lot old, and he actually has skills that are not inferior to himself, how can people not be curious? I don't want to name it, but my strength is frighteningly high, what do you want to do?
On the roof of more than five meters or six meters, Xie Chengbin couldn't jump on it, and almost habitually released the mecha. Force your composure, give up the idea of using the mech, and take a detour.
When Xie Chengbin made a detour, the roof that the old man had turned over turned out to be his bedroom! This surprised Xie Chengbin again!
Seeing that the door was not closed, the oil lamp in the house had already been lit. Xie Chengbin walked in slowly, and at this time he became nervous for some reason, if he could leave the old man behind, it would be great. "Senpai is available?"
No one responded to Xie Chengbin's words, Xie Chengbin continued to walk until Xie Chengbin walked to the bed, but there was no one in sight, but a small note and a small bag the size of a palm appeared next to the oil lamp.
Xie Chengbin picked up the note, he couldn't understand the traditional characters, so he could only ask Kodi to translate. "Old decay Zuo Ci, I heard that Xie Jinan is incomparable in benevolence and righteousness, so he came to test the truth. After many temptations, I learned that the name of benevolence and righteousness is indeed worthy of its name. As a gift, give you a bag of beans, which can only be opened if there is a bloody disaster to resolve the crisis. If there is no danger to open, the immortal bean will dissipate the aura. ”
It turned out to be Zuo Ci, and in the many Three Kingdoms games that Xie Chengbin had played, he often saw Zuo Ci's name, but Zuo Ci did not belong to any force, so Xie Chengbin didn't know Zuo Ci very well.
The days are spent in a busy way, and before you know it, Xie Chengbin has spent half a month in this time and space. It's March, the weather is warming, the snow and ice have melted, and farming is begins.
There is trouble here, most of the fields in the entire Jinan country belong to wealthy families, and the land of ordinary people accounts for less than half of it!
Xie Chengbin sent people to those wealthy families to buy land, and I don't know if it was because of the bad service attitude of those officials and envoys, or for other reasons, the work did not go well, and the total area of the acquired land and the land of the common people was only 30%. This land will never be able to support so many displaced people, unless they do not pay taxes, which is impossible.
Just when Xie Chengbin had a headache, someone came to report that Gao Xu was back! There is a credible subordinate who can entrust the hot potato, and Xie Chengbin is snickering at this time. It is said that three stinkers have beaten one Zhuge Liang, maybe Gao Xu can have some good way.
Speaking of Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang is only three years old at the moment, and his father seems to be the Taishou of Taishan County, so Xie Chengbin did not send someone to find him.
Xie Chengbin led the crowd to the city gate, only to see the people and horses in front of him, slowly approaching Jinan City, there were both soldiers and civilians, estimated to be tens of thousands. Gao Xu only took 500 sergeants with him when he left, but when he came back, there were so many more! It is estimated that they brought back people from other places.
Finally arrived at the city gate, Zhang Fei dismounted and hugged his fists, Gao Xu got out of the car to make a move, and the two spoke in unison. "The subordinates live up to their trust!"
Xie Chengbin suddenly remembered that they were looking for Yu Ban and Zangba, but he didn't expect to find it! I saw two young men walking out behind the two, and they all knelt down on one knee with fists clenched. "The grass people are forbidden (Tibetan tyrants), I have seen the envoy! Thanks to the love of the king, I am willing to serve the lord! ”
This made Xie Chengbin laugh so happily that he almost shouted long live! One by one, he lifted the two of them up. "Hurry up, please! The two are willing to help the official serve the country, and the official is grateful, and has set up a banquet to wash the dust for the two! ”
