Chapter 47: Allocation of Manpower

Xu Xiaoxiao saw Chu Qing turn around and said to Liu Lizheng: "Uncle Lizheng, you wait for me here, I'll go over and ask about the situation." ”

Liu Lizheng nodded and waved his hand behind him to signal to rest in place, Liu Dahua was not at ease, Xu Xiaoxiao went over alone, stretched out his hand and grabbed the corner of Xu Xiaoxiao's clothes, Xu Xiaoxiao turned around and patted Liu Dahua's hand.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Xu Xiaoxiao came to Chu Qing, "I have already brought the manpower, how is the arrangement over there?" ”

"Well, that's done." Chu Qing nodded.

"Miss Xu, behind you is your family." Wang Cui stepped forward and said with a smile.

"Yes, sister-in-law, they'll be handed over to you next." Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the villagers of Liujia Village and said with a light smile.

"Don't worry, I've already said hello to the village, and let Li Zheng tidy up the empty yard to settle your family." Wang Cui smiled and waved his hand.

"Okay, thank you, sister-in-law." Xu Xiaoxiao nodded in thanks.

After a brief exchange, Wang Cui followed her to Liu Lizheng and said, "Lizheng, this is Wang's sister-in-law, she is responsible for settling you." ”

Liu Lizheng said with a smile, "Then it's troublesome for the big sister." ”

Wang Cui smiled and waved her hand, and then led the villagers of Liujia Village to her residence.

Xu Xiaoxiao took Liu Qiao'er and Chu Tiezhu to Li's pharmacy, where Doctor Li sorted out the herbs by the faint candlelight.

He had heard that some people in the town had begun to get smallpox and took out the treasured medicinal herbs overnight, he had moved from other towns eight years ago, and had not experienced the smallpox ten years earlier, although he had never seen it, but he also knew the dangers of this poisonous plague.

"Physician Lee." Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Doctor Li and whispered.

She was afraid that her voice would be too loud and alarm Doctor Li, who was concentrating on sorting out the medicinal herbs.

"You're here." Dr. Li looked up and saw a reassuring smile on Xu Xiaoxiao's face.

"I'll get you something to eat."

Xu Xiaoxiao, Chu Qing and others came to the backyard of the pharmacy and sat down at the stone table in the backyard, in the kitchen of the bungalow, Doctor Li and his wife were busy in the room by candlelight, with little white smoke, fragrant and sweet rice wafting out of the kitchen.

"How did you get the magistrate to agree?" Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the good people who were busy in the kitchen, and suddenly wondered how Chu Qing made the magistrate who was holding high and low agree to use manpower.

"I played a dim sum machine and made him mistakenly think that he was also infected with smallpox." Chu Qing said after picking up the warm tea on the table and drinking it.

"Sure enough, people are only anxious if they hurt their own interests." Xu Xiaoxiao snorted and laughed.

"The manpower has been arranged, and the doctor has notified the gathering tomorrow, but the number of people is large, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to cooperate." Chu Qing's heart tightened when he thought of the tens of thousands of people in the city.

Ten years ago, the capital mobilized the army to quell the trouble, and now they are afraid that it will be difficult for them alone.

"I can only resign myself to fate." Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the warm tea in the teacup and said with a lot of concern.

Liu Qiao'er and Chu Tiezhu sat on a chair not far away, eating pastries and drinking tea comfortably, Tiezhu listened to the conversation between Xu Xiaoxiao and Chu Qing, and looked at the pastries in his hands in a daze.

"What do you think?" Liu Qiao'er got up and shook in front of the iron pillar.

"Have you ever heard of spider web mode?" Tie Zhu asked slowly.

"Isn't that a common tactic in sales?" Although Liu Qiaoer had never done sales in her previous life, she had heard of this sales model to some extent.

"Well, how about using it in Anle Town?" Tie Zhu took a bite of the pastry and said with a firm expression.

Tie Zhu's conversation attracted Xu Xiao's attention, and she looked at Tie Zhu, "You said that you used one person to drive many people?" ”

She remembered that before joining the army in the last life, because everyone was afraid of alien creatures, no one dared to join the army, and then the method of one belt and ten proposed by Tiezhu was successfully solved.

The core of this method is to choose a person with authority to lead the people around him, and solve the credibility problem and reduce manpower.

"One person leads many people?" Chu Qing was also attracted by this novel statement and joined the conversation.

He looked at the iron pillar in front of him again, and had to admit that this child's courage and courage were even better than ordinary adults, and as long as he cultivated more, he would definitely be a pillar of the country in the future.

"You can try it, so that you can reduce the manpower problem." Xu Xiaoxiao said excitedly.

What she is most worried about at present is manpower, the officers and soldiers in Liujia Village and the government office, plus the sister-in-law Wang, which is far from enough to deal with the huge number of people in the city.

"Well, I asked Li Mao to contact the Li Zheng in each village and the people with authority on the streets." Chu Qing said that he would do it, and planned to go to the government office to deal with this matter in person, after all, Li Mao, the irresponsible magistrate, had no way to rest assured.

After Chu Qing and Wang Duo left, only Xu Xiaoxiao and Liu Qiao'er were left in the entire courtyard, and Liu Qiao'er leaned close to Tie Zhu and pinched his face to take a closer look.

"Say, how old are you?"

Tie Zhu's face was pinched and deformed, and he struggled to break free before he got out of Liu Qiaoer's hands, "You don't know what you raised?" ”

"I'm asking how old is your inner heart?" Liu Qiaoer's hands were broken free, unconvinced, and she hugged the iron pillar again and asked.

Chu Chu nibbled on the pastry and smiled and watched the two fight, when Doctor Li and his wife came out with food.

"What about Young Master Chu?" Doctor Li glanced at the hospital and found no Chu Qing, so he asked.

"He's out on business." Xu Xiaoxiao stood up and said.

"The little boy in the house woke up and kept looking for him." Dr. Li said as he put down his meal.

"I'll go inside and have a look." Xu Xiaoxiao remembered the child's condition and walked towards the house in the middle.

The fire in the house was shaking, the candles were half-burned, and Chu Guo sat on the edge of the bed and watched everything in the room in a daze.

"Are you awake?" Xu Xiaoxiao came to the side of Chu and said.

"You are?" Chu Guo shrank back vigilantly, and reached into the quilt with his other hand to grope.

"I am—" Before Xiaoxiao could finish speaking, a knife slashed across her face, but fortunately she reacted and dodged in time.

"Don't be nervous, I'm Chu Qing's friend, and this is the medical hall."

Chu Guo held the knife in both hands, his body was stiff, beads of sweat flowed from his forehead, his face was pale, his expression was serious, and his body was slightly soft when he heard Chu Qing's name.

"What evidence is there?" But he didn't put down the knife, and looked around and continued to ask with vigilance.

Xu Xiaoxiao remembered the jade pendant that Chu Qing gave her earlier, and took out the jade pendant from her arms, "Look at what Chu Qing gave me." ”

Under the faint candle flame, the jade pendant was still very dazzling, emitting a faint green light, and after Chu Guo saw the familiar jade pendant, his body softened, and the knife fell from his hand.

"Emperor.... Where's my brother? Chu Guo sat down on the bed and supported his weak body and asked.

"He's out on errands." Xu Xiaoxiao came to the table, poured a cup of warm tea, and handed it to Chu Guo.

"Is he alone?" Chu Guo looked nervous and grabbed Xu Xiaoxiao's arm.

"And the guard Wang Duo." Xu Xiaoxiao was spilled out of his hand due to the sudden shaking of Chu State.

She hurriedly comforted Chu Guo and took out a handkerchief from her arms to wipe away the water spilled on his body.

Chu Guo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that his brother was not acting alone, and at this time, his stomach made a rumbling sound.

Xu Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, "I'm hungry, I'll go out and bring food in, you lie down first." ”

She helped Chu Guo to lean back on the edge of the bed, turned around and walked out of the room.
