At this moment,

A young man ran in and said:

Master, the village chief is here, oh, please hurry, Hu Chongtian hurriedly said, and after a while, a young man with a bloated body and a fat face and big ears walked in, Hu Chongtian and his two sons hurriedly greeted him, Hu Chongtian first said: Village chief, do you have any instructions to send someone to inform me, I will go to visit, why bother you to come in person?

The village chief responded with a smile: You are an elder, as a junior, the village chief Lan Yi knew before, the previous village chief is bedridden due to his advanced age, but the position of the village chief still needs one to serve, thinking of the old village chief's hard work for so many years, the village people collectively elected the son of the village chief to replace, which can be regarded as an explanation to the old village chief.

This young man who just entered the door is the son of the village chief, when the old village chief was in power, things in the village were on the right track, there was nothing to do, so the new village chief had nothing to do every day, but he was not incompetent, I remember one time, the village did not know what was going on with a wolf ran in, for the safety of the villagers, he led the young men of the village, charged ahead to drive the wolf out of the village, at that time the performance of the new village chief was indeed recognized by many people, it is because of this incident, the new village chief suggested to go to the town to purchase a batch of armor and armor to put in each villager's home for safety, but the village has limited funds, he could only go to the door to borrow money from the Hu family, which was booming at that time, but at that time, the Hu family's business was getting bigger and bigger, and the funds were relatively tight, so he rejected him.

Since then, the new village chief has never had contact with the Hu family, although the village chief does not look very good, but his speech is quite decent, Lan Yi has a good impression of him, seeing that everyone in the hall got up to greet him, he was very respectful to himself, the village chief's self-esteem was greatly satisfied, under the guidance of Hu Chongtian, the village chief slowly sat down, Hu Chongtian asked with a smile: I don't know if the village chief is here today, what is the matter? If you are not in a hurry, I will arrange a meal, you can rest here?

Seeing his grandfather's expression of flattering others, Lan Yi's heart was slightly sour. From childhood to adulthood, grandpa's status in his heart is unparalleled, but now grandpa's low expression will be a little unacceptable for a while, but Lan Yizhi said, grandpa must have his own reason for doing this, in fact, not only grandpa, even his father and second uncle are also flattering, seeing everyone's appearance of flattering themselves, the village chief is even more proud, a little proud, the village chief took a sip of tea and said slowly:

I have already told the mayor about the text of the request to reduce the Hu family's taxes, and the mayor said that he would report it to the above as soon as possible.

Thank you, Hu Chongtian said gratefully, the village chief continued: There is another thing to visit today, Hu Chongtian is very surprised, as the saying goes, "nothing is not on the Three Treasures Palace" Since the last borrowing incident, the village chief has never come to the door, there must be a problem with today's sudden visit, but he can't ask directly, he can only ask implicitly: I don't know why?

Perhaps because the sky was a little dark, the village chief said listlessly:

Now you have also seen the situation of the country, in order for the people to have a better life, now the country is recruiting talents, and a few representatives must be selected from all over the country.

After entering the Duke's Palace, he will be given the title of official, this is a beautiful difference, your Hu family is also a big family in our village, choose someone to try it, hearing this Hu Chongtian's face twitched and thought, now the country is in flames of war, and the war is continuous. After a long period of war is the time of the shortage of soldiers, the meaning of the village chief is nothing more than another rhetoric of recruiting troops and buying horses, as long as people are sent out, how can there be a reason to come back alive, which one of the children and grandchildren in the family is their own flesh and blood, and they are reluctant, so they hurriedly said: What the village chief said is extremely true, but our Hu family has been in business for several generations and can neither write nor martial arts, and it is useless to go, why not give the opportunity to others?

Hearing that Hu Chongtian had the intention of rejecting himself, the village chief frowned and said:

Old man Hu, in our village, your Hu family can be a big family, although you are not short of money, but if someone from the Hu family can enter the Duke's Palace, it will also win glory for our village, seeing that the village chief is not reluctant, Hu Chongtian hurriedly said: The village chief can't help it, our Hu family thinks that no one can enter the Duke's Palace, we are just a businessman, you still raise your noble hand and give the opportunity to others, hearing Hu Chongtian repeatedly shirk, the village chief said a little impatiently:

Let you be an official and not let you go to death, okay, I have come today, you must also give me an explanation, at this time, the rabbit who was sitting on the side glanced at Lan Yi on the side, Lan Yi nodded, Lan Yi understood in his heart, this is the opportunity to get close to the duke that the rabbit master said before, so Lan Yi stood up, he saw that his grandfather was embarrassed and his heart was indeed uncomfortable, so he said: "I'll go" , Lan Yi's actions at this time attracted the attention of the village chief, originally the village chief thought that he was a guest of the Hu family at this time, but Lan Yi's volunteering made the village chief look at the teenager again, Hu Zhenshan saw that his son could stand up at this critical moment and solve the difficulties for the Hu family, and he was really comforted, but this is a matter of life and death, not recklessness. So he opened his mouth and shouted:

Sit down, how can the elders interject when they speak, and the village chief, who has been watching for a long time, came back to his senses and asked:

Who is this?

Hu Zhenshan hurriedly replied: It's my child, I'm sorry, the child in the family is young and ignorant, doesn't know etiquette, don't be surprised, well, no, the village chief interrupted Hu Zhenshan's answer, turned his head to look at Lan Yi and asked: How old are you?

Seventeen, Lan Yi replied truthfully.

After hearing this, the village chief was very happy and smiled and said:

It's good, it's a good age, but how do you look at you, what's your name?

Hu Lanyi, Lan Yi said seriously.

Hearing Lan Yi's answer, the village chief involuntarily said to himself:

Hu Lanyi, Hu Zhenshan's youngest son, that is, the head of the little waste village realized his mistake and immediately corrected it and said:

I remembered, but hasn't Hu Zhenshan's youngest son been frail and sickly since he was a child, so how do you get there?

Is there no one in the Hu family?

After speaking, the village chief kept looking at Lan Yi, and as soon as this remark came out, Lan Yi next to him was angry to the extreme, Lan Yi gathered aura with his right hand and just wanted to attack, but was stopped by the rabbit next to him with a look, and after thinking about the task that the rabbit master gave him, Lan Yi endured it again, and said slowly:

As a descendant of the Hu family, I have something to do on behalf of the village to win glory, so what can I not go, as for being frail and sick, that is your previous impression.

Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, now I'm not standing here.

Hu Chongtian was anxious at this time, his grandson who had just come back was leaving again, the most important thing was that this time he left, I am afraid it was really leaving, and he was just about to stop it, but Lan Yi was one step ahead of him, and said first: Grandpa, father, second uncle, male ambition in all directions, only my brother and sister have contributed to the family since I was a child, but I have not contributed at all, now that I have grown up, I was not capable before, and now I am already capable, so please allow me to represent the Hu family this time
