Chapter 33: Tranquility

Although there was no war, Zhou Ping's days were not idle because of this, and it turned out that when he had his own power, even if there were only more than a thousand people in this force, those big or small things were enough to keep Zhou Ping busy from morning to night.

"You can't do anything with one hand......

Seeing the two soldiers walk out of the council hall, Zhou Ping slumped in his chair and muttered to himself.

When I got up in the morning, I first gave the soldiers military training, and after the military training, I didn't have time to drink a sip of water to deal with a few friction incidents among the soldiers in the camp that happened yesterday.

"What's wrong?"

Diao Chan on the side didn't hear what Zhou Ping was saying clearly, thinking that he was saying something important, so he hurriedly asked.

There are many and complicated affairs, Zhou Ping will inevitably have omissions alone, Diao Chan, who has been fine, was called by Zhou Ping as a secretary, on the one hand, Zhou Ping really needs someone to help him, on the other hand, Zhou Ping wants to have more contact with Diao Chan.

It has been more than two months since he left Chang'an, and the two have always been polite, not that Zhou Ping is not thick enough and not bold enough, but that he is busy every day, dealing with chores during the day, and seizing the time to practice at night, and the two have no chance to contact each other privately.

"It's okay, I'm just talking to myself......"

Zhou Ping looked back at Diao Chan, Diao Chan stood behind him, a small wooden board in one hand and a brush in the other, a pair of eyes under the veil flickered, looking very diligent, it seemed that he really took the errand that Zhou Ping gave him seriously.

Alas, such a serious attitude, but only these little things for you to deal with......

Thinking of this, Zhou Ping couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, he looked away, touched his nose, and coughed lightly.

"Ahem...... Well, what's going on in the afternoon? ”

"Afternoon words...... The day before yesterday, you said that you had been sending people down to manage six villages and one town for a while, so why don't you go and have a look? ”

The tip of the pen tapped twice on the forehead, and Diao Chan suggested.

"Hmm...... Okay, just follow what you said, call Liu Scareye over. ”

If you have to go out in the afternoon, the affairs in the village still have to be handed over to some extent.

Liu Scareye came over soon, and after hearing Zhou Ping's thoughts, Liu Scarhead said that he would also come over.

"It's just right, it's time to pay the monthly money in two days, let's stop by after the transfer."

"Are you going to Kabasaka?"

After all, it is under Zhang Yan's hands, and Zhou Ping naturally understands the matter of paying the monthly money, according to modern terms, it is the monthly meeting of the Pusaka branch of Zhang Yan's thief company, and Zhou Ping's district and county agents go to the branch to make a monthly summary.

"Exactly."

"In that case, is Ma Dali going over too?"

Zhou Ping still remembers that at the beginning, Ma vigorously plundered the Tongguan Wharf, and a large part of the reason was to scrape together money to pay the monthly money.

"That's not necessary, we will merge with Ma Dali now, as long as we help Ma Dali's share be paid."

"Don't they care?"

"There are more than a dozen large and small forces in this area, and there are almost every day of embezzlement of each other, and Zhang Yan doesn't plan to take care of it if he can't manage it, he just needs money."

"It's a hands-off shopkeeper."

Zhou Ping smiled and sighed, he sat up slightly straight, and looked at Liu Scar.

"In that case, let's prepare."

In fact, there is nothing to prepare for, it is nothing more than to pick a leader to manage the cottage temporarily, and then choose a few people with quick hands and feet and bright brains to accompany him. And Liu Dunton, the Hun scout who followed Zhou Ping to Tongguan to save people, was also in the queue of the entourage.

"It's up to you to be the captain this time, and the safety of the virtuous teacher and Miss Diao Chan will be handed over to you!"

Liu Dundun couldn't imagine that he would be promoted like this, and he couldn't help but feel grateful in his heart.

"Thank you, Commander Liu!"

"Don't thank me, this is the order of the virtuous teacher."

"Thank you, thank you!"

Liu Dundun immediately turned his head and hugged his fist to Zhou Ping, who was smiling and watching from the side.

Zhou Ping smiled and nodded, although this Liu Dundun is a Huns, whether it is his usual performance or obedience during military training, he is considered to have performed very well among the original bandits, and it is just right to promote and train him to be his cronies.

In fact, Zhou Ping didn't have this intention at first for cultivating cronies, but after hearing more and more dissatisfaction with his various orders from the original bandits, he finally made such a decision.

Although it was the first time for Zhou Ping to pay the monthly money, it was just an ordinary thing for Liu Scaryan and the others in the cottage, and after a simple order, the carriage of the group set off.

"What's the matter, is this carriage uncomfortable?"

In the carriage, seeing that Liu Scar's eyes were a little restrained, Diao Chan couldn't help but ask.

It's really uncomfortable, Liu Scareye rides a horse on weekdays, and this time Diao Chan took the initiative to invite, and Liu Scareye got into the carriage, it's not that Liu Scareye is not used to a comfortable life, it's just that the carriage is so narrow, and Diao Chan and Han Ji, who are much more beautiful than themselves, are so close to each other, so that Liu Scaryan, who has recovered Scareye and regained his woman's mentality, is inevitably a little ashamed.

"No...... It was very comfortable and everything was fine. ”

Liu Scaryan was a little uneasy and tugged at the edge of the cloth cushion on the seat, the decoration of the carriage was not luxurious, but at least it had the taste of a little woman, which made Liu Scareye feel a little out of place with the atmosphere here.

"Don't be inhibited, just be casual."

In fact, it is also Zhou Ping's idea to call Liu Scareye in, since Liu Scar's return to obedience, the two are more of a communication between superiors and subordinates, Zhou Ping always feels that Liu Scareye has a layer of estrangement with himself, if Liu Scareye is a man, a meal of wine and words can naturally break this barrier, but Liu Scareye is a woman, this method does not seem to work so much, not to mention anything else, just say that it is difficult to pour Liu Scareye into a slightly drunk heart.

"What do you think of us?"

"What?"

Liu Scar's eyes were stunned, Zhou Ping's question was really sudden.

"It's us, the cottage side, and the Tongguan side."

Zhou Ping tapped his finger twice, signaling their current two territories.

"There are virtuous teachers and Miss Dong Bai on both sides, plus we have a lot more soldiers than before, such strength, not to mention anything else, at least in Hedong County, it can be regarded as a big force."

Answering decently, Zhou Ping nodded and continued to ask.

"What about me?"

"A good teacher...... I can't say ......."

Liu Scar's face darkened, Zhou Ping's question was indeed a little sharp, she didn't know what Zhou Ping wanted to ask, or what she wanted to hear her answer, her mind turned, but she went in the direction of conspiracy and calculation.

"Don't think about it, he just asks what you think of him?"

Diao Chan on the side helped explain.

How are people?

Isn't it enough for this virtuous teacher to have Diao Chan and Dong Bai to take a fancy to me?

Liu Scar was stunned for a moment, but she misunderstood Diao Chan's meaning, she looked at Zhou Ping again, but the expression on her face was a little strange.

"No, no, I didn't mean that, I just asked, gossip, and asked what you thought of me, what I thought of what I had done during this time."

Realizing the change in atmosphere, Zhou Ping hurriedly argued.

"As early as when Immortal Hua Tuo asked me if I was willing to follow the virtuous master, my subordinates had already made a decision, if the virtuous master fancied his subordinates, even if he said it!"

However, Liu Scaryan carried out the misunderstanding to the end, she clasped her hands into fists, as if answering an order, and replied loudly.

"Our virtuous teacher is really an extraordinary person."

Outside the carriage, Liu Dunton, who was driving the car, heard Liu Scar's loud answer, and couldn't help but sigh and whisper to his companions.
