On a stone-paved street, a man and a woman are carrying weights.

This is the third trip, and the new books have finally been transported.

After taking a breath, Jiang Shui wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve.

"I'm really glad I met you today, otherwise I really don't know what to do, come and drink saliva."

Maybe it was too tired, and Jiang Shui was not too polite, so he took the bowl and raised his neck to drink a fine light.

At this time, Yang Fangxin looked at Jiang Shui, although she was unkempt, but that face made her stunned for a moment. After being looked at by her like this for a while, Jiang Shui's face was also a little hot.

"You don't look like you're a local, do you?"

"I am a native of Xiajiang County, perennial in Liujiang as a freight boatman, a few days ago with the boss to go to Guangdong, lost the capital and now only get to the other to join relatives, passing by here.

"It's not been easy, don't be discouraged, you'll definitely come back from time to time." He said with a smile.

This sentence made the river feel like a spring breeze, and I didn't know what words to use to reply, so I could only nod again and again.

"So be it! It's not early, I'll tell Principal Liu, you will have dinner in the cafeteria this night, and sleep in Lao Zhou's bunk in the room. ”

"Okay, as long as I take care of the food, I have the strength!" Jiang Shui immediately responded to Cheng, and then scratched his head with his hand in embarrassment.

"Teacher Yang! When I came back from the county office, as soon as I entered the door, I saw a lot of new books piled up in the room, it's really hard for you, the school is poor because of my incompetence as the principal! ”

When they turned around, they saw a tall old man with round black-rimmed glasses walking towards them.

"Principal Fang thanks to this little brother's help today, I'm sorry, I still don't know what to call you"

"My name is... Long Tao", Jiang Shui always found a name and blurted out, he thought, I am from Longpo Village, what is the surname on the spot, Tao and water are close to make do with it.

"Teacher Yang, where is it, there is also your share here, don't be so polite."

"This little brother, no matter what, it's really hard for you to say that twenty copper plates."

"Don't say that, I also went to a private school when I was six years old, and my family studied for two years, and when I saw so many books on the riverbank, I couldn't bear to read them, which is the essence of Confucius and Mencius."

"Young people are rare! If you can read a lot of books, you will become a talent. ”

"The old man thinks that knowledge needs to be learned from books, but also from the experience in the society to be improved, young man, although you and I are meeting for the first time, but I vaguely feel that you have a book and sword atmosphere, which is what we bury all day long The old master does not have, the old man is optimistic about you, if you don't dislike it, you can live here for a while, in your spare time, our teacher Yang can teach you to know a few more words."

Jiang Shui thanked again and again. He can't be with Teacher Yang every day...

"Teacher Fang Xin is discussing something with you, it's like this..."Principal Fang wanted to say but stopped.

"Say it straight, as long as I can do it, I will do what you want."

"Originally, the annual funds for this school are allocated to us by the county official office, and since the commander of the security regiment Liu Yishou took office, all the money in the county must be nodded by him, and he doesn't care about the county master when he has a gun in his hand. It's the first time I've seen such a greedy person at this age, so let's put up with it. ”

He said that tonight he set up a table and a banquet in his house, and asked the county to come to him for dinner, saying that it was to eat was actually forcing everyone to honor him, but it was good, I insisted on letting you go to accompany the wine, or else I would ..... What is this man? If you're embarrassed, forget it. It's a big deal, let's save some next! ”

"Colonel Liu goes with you, it's not a big deal, his dignified commander is in full view of everyone, what can he do to me." Yang Fangxin said calmly.

"The old man thanked all the colleagues of the school here!" Say bow and bow.

There was a commotion downstairs in the drunken immortals, and after a while, a large group of heavily armed security regiment soldiers walked down the street in two columns.

That Liu Yishou deliberately buttoned the top button of the collar of his jacket, and rode a tall horse to swagger through the city, he deliberately shook his majesty in his acre, according to what he often said, a man must have a style to live.

Pedestrians on the street have given way, who doesn't want to touch this moldy head.

As soon as I arrived at the restaurant, all the dignitaries of the county summer were waiting downstairs for a long time.

"You've been waiting for a long time, oh, I'm busy with official business, I'm sorry." casually threw the horsewhip to Adjutant Zhang behind him, turned over and dismounted, and saluted the people present with his fists.

The stars present greeted him upstairs like the moon.

As soon as she entered the door, Yang Fangxin saw a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit, and his body was slightly fat. "Commander Liu, I've been waiting here for a long time, and today you are in good spirits!"

"The county magistrate, it's too much," he said, taking off his cloak and handing it to the adjutant behind him.

At the banquet, the county elder poured a glass of wine, walked to Commander Liu's side and cleared his throat.

"Contemptible people have just come here to take up their posts, and I will rely on you a lot in the future, especially Commander Liu! Yes. ”

"If it weren't for Commander Liu's dedication to protect the country and the people, how could we have a peaceful life. Here, I borrow flowers to welcome the Buddha and pay tribute to Commander Liu. ”

Liu Yishou also stood up and drank this glass of wine with the newly arrived county magistrate.

"Everyone! Today, the commander set up this table of wine and food, firstly, to wash the dust for the newly arrived county magistrate, and secondly, to let the new county magistrate know the newcomer. The other one....."

He scanned the surroundings with a wine glass, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he saw Yang Fangxin sitting in the crowd walking over.

"The emergence of young talents now is a blessing for our county. This must be Mr. Yang, right? A pair of squinting eyes stared at Yang Fangxin.

Principal Long, who was sitting on the side, hurriedly got up and replied to the Earth Emperor.

"Commander Liu, this is the female champion of our county over the years, a highly talented student of Nanjing Jinling Women's University, Yang Fangxin, a teacher who has just graduated but insists on returning to her hometown, and the granddaughter of Zhang Qunyuan, president of the Executive Yuan in Nanjiao."

All eyes were on Yang Fangxin. A purple dress with a delicate face.

"Next, I would like to ask our female champion to say a few words for us," then Commander Liu took the lead in applauding first.

"Ladies and gentlemen here, the words of praise that the little girl heard are really not appropriate, and it is the duty of my generation to educate the children of my hometown."

"However, here, there is a reluctant request, I hope that the governors will support the local schools with sufficient salaries, so that the children of the public can accept more Western education for the benefit of one party, and do not get stuck. I'm done! ”

"Here I Liu Yishou said, who is behind the secret trick to intercept the school's funds, look at the gun in my hand to agree or not," he said with a straight face.

Everyone present bowed their heads and remained silent. Everyone knows it in their hearts, isn't this a thief shouting to catch a thief?!

He paced again to the center of the hall and looked at the crowd.

"Our county magistrate has just arrived and does not know the local situation, in recent years, there have been many troubles and riots, my security regiment shoulders the heavy responsibility of ensuring the safety of one party, and the brothers under him have a lot of hard work, please have a lot of weight here, for this reason, what I want to say today is that the subordinates of the county bureau should donate some silver dollars for the soldiers, and this year is no exception! Haha......"

"President Zhang! This year, you can pay the security fee of your chamber of commerce, right?!"

"Commander Liu, we have to pay, but after we have already paid the summer fee of the security regiment some time ago, it is difficult for the shops to raise funds in a short period of time.....

Chairman Zhang was soon deterred by Liu Yishou's fierce eyes, and stopped talking.

"Listen, everyone, don't forget that my men can live a day licking blood from the tip of a knife, and if you force them to be in a hurry, they will not be able to listen to me, and the losses will be unpredictable," he said coldly.

"Speaking of hemp, everyone is responsible for ensuring the peace of the country, and women and children are no exception."

"What Commander Liu said is very true, I have just arrived in office, and I also want to tide over the difficulties with you" The county elder made a round in order to ease the atmosphere in the room.

Turning around, he motioned to the clerk behind him and hurriedly opened the official purse beside him, and a 500 ocean check was presented on the table. "This is a little heart, on behalf of the county's summer condolences to the brothers of the security group, insincere respect!"

"You see that the county magistrate knows compassion, what are you still doing in a daze? Donate! ”

The other people who went to the banquet became the object of squeezing oil, at best, they donated money, and to put it bluntly, they scraped money! Who dares to say more, except for Fang Xin, all the people present have to give away, after the banquet is dispersed, Liu Yishou looked at the guests who went away, and then looked at a large pile of silver dollars and tickets on the table proudly, rubbed his chin with his hand, and laughed.

In the dimly lit room, two dark shadows were talking.

The one sitting on the Taishi's chair took a sip of tea, and slowly said to the standing one, "Find out his details, find the right time to do it, and simmer the bones slowly before they rot!" Remember that the key is to hit the opponent's door with one blow is the way to win, and if you can't bear it, you will plot. ”

"I know, but I can't get used to the kind of virtue that no one in his eyes, and I can't stand this nest."

"Sooner or later, we will have this fangs pulled out, remember that the one who has the last laugh is the winner."

"Yes, the subordinate understands" stood up for a military salute, then turned to leave.

The man took out a secret letter from the drawer, struck a match and lit the letterhead, shook the burning match a few times, threw it into the ashtray, and looked through the window with his hands behind his back at night street.
