Chapter 051

As a member of the yamen, Jiang Fang focused on the position of team leader. He heard that after A Duo trained the police dog, he would first appoint the person with the highest performance score as the team leader.

His physical fitness is not satisfactory among the government officials, and he only has a smart mind. If he wants to get the upper hand, he must find another way out.

Therefore, as soon as it was said that the yamen servant was needed to serve as a temporary assessment guide this time, he immediately volunteered and stood out from a group of colleagues who wanted to fight for this opportunity.

Jiang Fang picked up a stack of registration forms and patiently asked these future talent cadres: "Are some of you here to register for the assessment? Come to me to register."

One of the young people with an elegant appearance tentatively said: "Official eldest brother , I am a master of painting, and I heard that you can apply for it. I wonder what level of painting skills you need to pass?"

Jiang Fang shook his head: "I don't know about this. You can sign up first. Anyway, there is no loss if you don't pass. "Life, age, what type of application should I sign up for?"

The young man thought about it. If he passed, he would get a monthly subsidy in the first year, and he would be reimbursed for medical expenses when he got sick. There is no such good thing anywhere else. Ying Ping came up with such a policy to benefit the people.

"I don't dare bother the official brother, let me fill it in." The young man is not only good at painting, but also good at calligraphy. When Jiang Fang saw that the other party's handwriting was neat and elegant, he reminded: "You can change the registration type. Fill in the calligraphy item."

The other person was stunned: "Can you fill in more?"

Jiang Fang smiled very easily: "You have so many skills, you can try another one. The

young man quickly completed the filling, and Jiang Fang asked: "Have you settled in Yingping? This is the first condition."

The young man took out the household registration document from his pocket: "I have settled in. I just completed the formalities and stamped it, and it is still warm."

The second person who came forward was an ordinary middle-aged man who looked like he was doing menial work. He asked in a strong local accent: "I am doing farm work, can I sign up?"

The others pretended to be He was here to cause trouble, and he heckled in a good-natured way: "Uncle, if farming is considered a talent, then most of the people can come and sign up."

The middle-aged man blushed, and Jiang Fang recalled the tasks announced by County Magistrate Lu. The types of talents mentioned at the time did not include this item.

If other government officials had asked him to leave, Jiang Fang thought about it from the perspective of County Magistrate Lu. If he were an adult, how would he handle such a thing.

Seeing Jiang Fang's silence, the middle-aged man turned around and left. At this moment, Jiang Fang asked: "Why does uncle want to sign up for farming? I mean, what is your farming work compared to others?" Is it different?"

When the middle-aged man saw what was going on, he quickly said, "Whatever I grow, whether it is millet or vegetables, they grow better than others, and I harvest more than others."

"Uncle, you are dishonest. Since you have done well, why did you flee to Yingping like us?"

The middle-aged man spread his hands helplessly: "Isn't this a flood? Even if I am a living Shennong, I can't catch it."

Go to the back and wait. Those who signed up burst into laughter.

Jiang Fang thought for a moment and decided that it could be considered a specialty. If not, he would register it and leave it to Mr. Lu to judge.

Didn't Mr. Lu say that there is a shortage of talents now? The next best thing is to cast a wide net and bring people in to see if they are considered special talents, and then make a final decision.

The farmer signed up successfully, which gave the others who were still watching a lot of confidence. As soon as the middle-aged man left, a man with a half-length beard and a Taoist robe came up. The Taoist priest said concisely: "I used to be in After practicing in the Taoist temple, you can watch Feng Shui and do fortune-telling. Come and sign up."

Jiang Fang scratched his head, why is there another strange one? Why are there none of the talents that Master Lu specially told to pay attention to.

Fortunately, three people came from behind. One used to be a barefoot doctor, and the other worked as a bookkeeper in the owner's house. The owner's house collapsed. Before he could find another house, he encountered floods and famine, and they fled together. The other one, Like Carpenter Liang, he is good at handicrafts. The difference is that Carpenter Liang specializes in carpentry for household items and daily utensils. The strong man who signed up is good at forging and smelting. He was a well-known forger in the former county and town. blacksmith.

Once these three types of talents signed up, Jiang Fang finally felt that he could work for Magistrate Lu.

Behind these three people was a pretty and pretty young woman. Although she was wearing coarse linen clothes and a scarf on her head, she tried her best to hide her beauty, but her beautiful face and the way she moved her hands and feet inadvertently revealed Pingting is so slender that she doesn't fit in with the people around her, so she attracts curious and even strange looks from many people.

When Jiang Fang raised his head and saw her for the first time, his heart was pounding and his eyes were straight. He had never seen such a beautiful woman before. He was so attracted that he couldn't find her anywhere.

The young woman spoke, her voice soft and sweet. Jiang Fang had no education. He didn't know how to describe this beautiful voice for a moment. He only felt that he was in a secluded forest and heard the tinkling of spring water and the cry of oriole.

"I am good at music, lyrics and music, and I am also good at calligraphy and painting."

As soon as she said this, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at her, especially among the people who signed up, there were two or three honest peasant women with bright eyes. Showing naked contempt and disgust.

Jiang Fang coughed loudly twice: "Well, heroes don't care where they come from. Master Lu said that anyone with talent for craftsmanship can sign up."

The young woman smiled brightly, her beautiful eyes rolled around, she reached out to pick up a pen and paper, and raised her wrist to run Just filled out the registration form. After the young woman filled it out, she calmly stepped back under the gazes of people with different expressions. It was not until her figure disappeared at the corner of the street that everyone present came back to their senses.

After the woman left, no one came forward to sign up. The rest came here with the purpose of waiting and watching or asking for information for their families. After getting the results they wanted, everyone dispersed.

Jiang Fang sat in his position all morning, and there were only a dozen or so people there. In the afternoon, people who signed up flocked to the county government office. After hearing what they had seen in the morning, even Taoist priests and farmers could successfully sign up, and they all came to the county government office with a lucky mentality of giving it a try.

Some people who were far away from the county seat received the news relatively late, so they took a day's ride on an ox cart to sign up.

These people couldn't wait to write down all the things they did to add fuel to the fire. In addition to asking questions one by one and filling out forms, Jiang Fang also took time to politely decline explanations when encountering inappropriate ones.

If the other person has a cheerful and informal personality, it's okay to say it, and smile to show understanding; if you meet someone who is messy and has a hot temper, banging the table and shouting loudly, citing the farmer's example, the time will pass in just a stick of incense.

Jiang Fang had the illusion that he had shot himself in the foot. He couldn't handle it alone, so Lu Jiu'an arranged for two more people to assist him. As the last day of assessment approaches, the number of people signing up is almost gone.

Lu Jiuan couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the contents on the registration form. There were so many different types of people signing up, including everything.

"What is this? Why are there even people raising chickens and ducks on it?"

Jiang Fang said: "Sir, doesn't Ado in our county government know how to raise dogs? He can train police dogs. What if that person can train police chickens and ducks? ..."

Lu Jiu'an thought, you would draw inferences and point to the other one and ask: "What about this one?"

Jiang Fang couldn't answer: "I don't know, sir, but you said you would rather kill a thousand by mistake. Don't let anyone slip through the net."

"Is this how the word is used?" Lu Jiuan couldn't laugh or cry: "It seems that not only do you have to train your physical fitness, but also your cultural classes must not be left behind."

In fact, Jiang Fang was the registration guidance staff for the qualification examination for the first time. With no experience and references, I did not do things step by step and took into account aspects that no one else could think of. To this extent, I have completed this task very well.

The reason is that the preparation for the professional skills qualification certificate assessment was too hasty. At least an "audition" link should be set up to screen out most of the unqualified people, so that it would be much easier.

Lu Jiu'an sent Jiang Fang out and started working on human resources alone in the office. He spent an afternoon reading all the registration forms one by one and eliminating three-quarters of the people.

Among the remaining quarter, there are two or three people. If it were replaced by other government officials, it might be easy to miss. Lu Jiuan looked at the farmer named Shen Zhi, the Taoist priest Feng Jing, and Meng Meng on the registration form. The woman in Yitai also recognized Jiang Fang's ability.

On the eleventh day of the lunar month, the assessment point was crowded. Such a big event was rare in Yingping. Except for those who signed up for the assessment, many others were just watching.

A large wooden board was placed at the assessment point, just like the imperial examination list, to post the list of those who passed the preliminary audition. Because the judge was Magistrate Lu, those who failed did not complain at all.

The assessment site was separated by ropes into several independent areas, including five sections: riding and archery, talent, medicine, and craftsmanship. There were three reviewers sitting in each section. They had their own set of evaluation criteria and conducted assessments at the same time.

Naturally, the reviewers for the medical section are Qin Zhao, Qin Jizhi, and Dr. Shi. One of them is a highly respected old doctor Ying Ping, and the other two are even more remarkable. They are imperial doctors from Tai Hospital. During the epidemic, the three of them Their contribution is indispensable, and they are well deserved to serve as reviewers.

Very few people signed up for medicine. The jury wrote several medicinal materials and asked them to tell their habits and functions. This simple question directly killed three people. Qin Zhao frowned slightly: "A doctor uses medicine just like a general uses soldiers. Lives and lives are at stake. Don't you dare to be careless!"

The remaining two people were nervously sweating under Qin's stern reprimand. Astonished, Lu Jiuan watched this scene and felt that it was no different from his college defense.

The jury then presented some medical examples and asked them to write down prescriptions on the spot.

One of the young people racked his brains and wrote stumblingly, raising his head from time to time to glance at the faces of the jury. The other middle-aged man seemed to be at ease with his writing, and he quickly came up with the formula.

Seeing this, the jury named some difficult and complicated diseases and asked the two to solve them. This time, even the middle-aged man who had been doing it with ease just now put aside his writing and looked ashamed.

The jury knew that this was the final result. The two applicants looked disappointed, but they saw Qin Zhao taking out two red booklets with the six characters of the professional qualification certificate written on them.

He first handed one of the books to the young man: "You are familiar with medicinal materials, but you can't prescribe them. I will grant you an internship qualification certificate. Start as a medicine-picking boy."

He then handed another book to the middle-aged man: "I only know that Junior pathology can treat trauma, wind and cold. I will grant you a junior professional qualification certificate and you can be an assistant. I hope you will be diligent, virtuous and knowledgeable in the future."

The two applicants were overjoyed. Having this certificate not only represents their first career in Yingping. The economy has been basically guaranteed for a year, and it also means that one's abilities have been recognized.

What was even more surprising was that Dr. Shi from the jury offered an olive branch to the two of them on the spot: "You can come to my medical clinic to study. At the moment, there are only three of us, my disciple and me."

Among the bystanders were doctors from other medical clinics . , they planned to make mistakes in this assessment, but to their surprise, Doctor Shi acted very quickly. The two applicants were accepted into the door, and they immediately knelt down and kowtowed to become masters, which made everyone else envious.

The judging panel for the riding and shooting section was led by General Han, Jiang Wei, and Fu Wenxin. However, this section was empty. The three judging panels were idle and light, and they went to other sections to watch the excitement.

Chapter 052

As for the selection of the jury for the talent and craft sections, Lu Jiuan racked his brains and thought for two days. In fact, there are only a handful of people with these two talents in a poor place like Yingping County.

Lu Jiu'an deliberately pulled Mu Lin, a playboy, out to count: "Master Mu, you have been living in southern Shanxi for so many years, and you must have seen a lot of literati. Are you interested in being a reviewer?"

Mu Lin's eyes lit up: " Judge? Is it fun? "

...

Lu Jiuan choked.

Forget it, this kid usually doesn't say anything serious, gets angry when he's unhappy, and has no restraint on his behavior.

What if his role as a reviewer backfires and scares away good talents? Lu Jiuan was worried that he couldn't think of looking for Mr. Mu Xiaohou, so he gave up the idea.

In the end, there was no other way. The craftsman found the craftsman of the Ministry of Industry, Xie Hualiang and the great history of water conservancy. The assessment method used interviews and physical objects. After interviewing the applicants' years of practical experience and past achievements, they were then asked to submit a freshly made work. The real thing comes out.

However, in this case, the assessment location cannot be limited to this place, and even the assessment time will be relatively extended.

In the talent section, Lu Jiuan finally decided to have applicants create works on the spot and then use public review.

Music, chess, calligraphy and painting are integrated. Everyone has a basic aesthetic and extremely high attainments. For example, a high-minded artist like Van Gogh has exceeded the preferences of ordinary people. This kind of unique literature and art appeared in Yingping County. Lu Jiuan thought he couldn't stay.

Therefore, the largest number of people gathered around the talent assessment section. The three floors inside and outside were shoulder to shoulder, and loud cheers erupted from time to time. Lu Jiu'an knew that this person had been recognized by everyone.

As the deputy envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital, Qin Zhao got to know many rich and powerful people, and he also had some knowledge of famous paintings. Therefore, after completing the review of his section, he also moved to the talent assessment point and watched with interest.

The cheers at the scene were louder and louder. Suddenly, the air was quiet, and then there was a commotion. It turned out to be the beautiful woman who signed up for music. After the others finished their calligraphy and painting, she appeared at the assessment point holding a pipa.

Even Lu Jiu'an couldn't help but be attracted to him. This person was Meng Yitai, an artistic talent that Lu Jiu'an was very optimistic about.

Mu Lin was dressed in layers of brocade clothes, with a gold and jade belt tied around her waist. She stood in the crowd with a romantic look, looking at the beauty in the center with interest: "It turns out that Mr. Lu likes such a beautiful sister."

Han Zhi stayed close to Lu Jiu'an, his face not revealing at all, and his eyes quietly observing Lu Jiu'an's reaction.

Lu Jiu'an's cheeks turned red: "My fair lady, gentlemen are so generous. Everyone likes to look at beautiful things, don't you? General Han, are you too? It's human nature."

"Well, of course I am." Mu Lin touched the corners of his mouth frankly and smiled evilly.

Han Zhi nodded seriously: "Everyone in the world loves beauty."

Meng Yitai had bright eyes and white teeth. She was dressed in old clothes that didn't cover up her moon-shy beauty. She sat there, like a spotlight, gathering people. Looks from all directions.

Meng Yitai raised his hands and gently swept them from left to right on the strings, making a tinkling sound.

"Shh." Mu Lin closed the folding fan and put it to her lips, and the whispers of conversation fell silent.

Meng Yitai's green fingers twirled and plucked the strings three times and twice. The sound of the piano was gentle. She closed her eyes and started to play slowly.

The notes of resentment emerge from the strings, the sound is sad and a little sad. Everyone listened in ecstasy, feeling like they were being pulled into a heart-breaking past. The story paused, and flowers were flying all over the floor.

Meng Yitai suddenly opened his eyes, plucked and pressed with his fingers, and the sound of the piano suddenly became urgent, like the sound of chaotic rain, and the sound was loud and urgent.

Everyone then saw that the petals all over the ground turned into mud unhappily. The sun was shining brightly and the rain was nourishing. In the blink of an eye, a bud emerged from the ground. The bud opened its branches and leaves, and the whole tree was spit out in the soft wind after the rain. The flower bones fill the garden with fragrance.

The melody advanced rapidly, Meng Yitai's fingers flew over the strings, and only an afterimage could be seen.

The sound of the piano is getting higher and higher, and the wind is blowing amidst the blooming spring flowers. The petals are dancing all over the sky. Suddenly they become a flying dragon soaring into the sky, spinning and writhing in mid-air, and suddenly they become a giant leopard, swimming freely in the sea.

I hope you will have wings and become a northern sea fish!

Everyone felt their breathing quicken, their blood boiling all over, and their hearts beating rapidly to the beat.

But at this moment, Meng Yitai made a careful move in the middle of the song, and the sound of the piano suddenly stopped. The petals spread out, covering the sparkling lake surface, and flowed away with the trend.

The people who were listening were still not satisfied. Meng Yitai stood up and bowed in the direction of Lu Jiu'an.

There was silence for a long time. It was the first time for Lu Jiu'an to hear such a shocking performance. He stared at Meng Yitai with wide eyes, unable to recover.

Mu Lin shouted loudly three times: "Pearls falling on jade plates, it is so breathtaking."

Lu Jiu'an had only experienced this feeling in the pipa row played by Bai Juyi. Meng Yitai carefully put the pipa aside and picked it up from the table. A landscape painting, with thick and dry ink, and two lines of words in the blank space. The words are like the person, graceful and beautiful. It says: "The wind stains the mountains, and they should be as smooth as the years."

The mountains and rivers are picturesque in all seasons, and the years should be calm and peaceful. , actually pinned Yingping Ping's wishes on this piece of writing.

She can not only play the piano and compose poems, but also calligraphy and painting to convey ideas. She is such a talented girl. This is a noble girl from a famous family. How did she end up in Yingping?

Everyone was cheering and praising Meng Yitai's performance. However, to Lu Jiu'an's surprise, during the review process, the results were completely opposite.

Lu Jiu'an was shocked and muttered in a low voice: "No, what happened? We can't live with this. What do these people think?"

Han Zhi said: "Are you fighting for her? Jiu'an likes her very much?"

Lu Jiu'an said: " This is not a question of whether you like it or not, this is a matter of truth. They were clearly in a state of ecstasy just now, why did they fall out faster than flipping through the book?"

Mu Lin turned her fan and shook her head, but she didn't smile.

A man who looked like a scholar asked Lu Jiu'an's doubts: "This woman is so talented and talented, why can't she live a good life?"

A woman pursed her lips with disgust on her face: "I don't know if she looks like this. Where did this prostitute come from?"

The scholar who had just spoken out to defend Meng Yitai was furious: "How can you judge a book by its appearance?"

Lu Jiu'an was also angry and made rash comments based on his own speculation without any definite evidence. If not, Wouldn't it ruin a woman's reputation?

Meng Yitai's face remained unchanged from beginning to end, and she said calmly: "I did fall into Zhangtai because my family was young and poor, but I have been trained as a Qing prostitute and have never done anything for money and sex. Later, I redeemed myself. , I married him. During the period when my husband died of illness, I was a housekeeper and did not do anything morally corrupt. You can't criticize me."

Meng Yitai looked generous, but there were explosions around him: "No wonder I look like this. " It turned out that I wanted to serve people with sex."

"How can I give you a qualification certificate when I'm from a poor family?" "

I don't know what it tastes like."

"You guys are unreasonable. They're obviously prostitutes and they talk so politely." "

A circle of people started chattering, some were accusatory, some were despicable, some were defensive, and there were all sorts of different expressions.

At this moment, his love and hatred for a woman are fully revealed and his humanity is clearly visible.

As a man, Lu Jiu'an also knew something about this when he was in love, so he knew that there were talented prostitutes and lustful prostitutes in history.

These talented prostitutes were not inferior to the famous ladies in the capital. Not only were they naturally beautiful, they were also excellent at calligraphy and painting. They attracted the attention of talented and talented people, and they wrote poems, poems and paintings as gifts.

There are even some people who understand the righteousness deeply and have such strong patriotism and national consciousness that even men find it difficult to match them.

Lu Jiu'an knew that in ancient times there was much hostility towards women who came out of the monastery. Even if they had poetry and literature in their belly and had never done anything extraordinary, they would still be criticized by ordinary people.

Their life experiences have been ups and downs, and they were unable to make choices when they were young. Meng Yitai has redeemed himself, and he is also an upright person, so why should he be inferior to others?

Lu Jiu'an looked at Meng Yitai's pretending to be strong, and a ball of fire arose in his heart.

Changing their minds cannot happen overnight, and it is foolish to try to directly change other people's minds.

But Lu Jiu'an couldn't do anything but do nothing and watch a woman who resisted the same fate and strive for self-improvement being criticized and humiliated. She didn't get the treatment she deserved due to her own abilities.

Virtue is clear, it shouldn't be like this!

"Hey, Magistrate Lu, what are you doing? Don't be impulsive."

Mu Lin's fan was held in front of Lu Jiu'an's chest. Lu Jiu'an ignored him and stepped into the field.

Mu Lin frowned: "Han Er, don't stop me. Why does Lu Jiu'an always like to go against the public? Isn't this causing a lot of trouble?"

Han Zhi didn't even look at him.

Lu Jiu'an looked around: "Poetry, painting, music, and music all come from it, but you turn a blind eye. I would like to ask you, when you eat pears, they are big and sweet. Are you curious about how they were grown, or where the pear trees are planted? "That's weird. Could it be that it was grown in a wealthy family and you feasted on it? It was born in a swampy countryside and then abandoned it like a pair of worn-out shoes."

Everyone didn't know whether it was because the person coming was Magistrate Lu, so they didn't dare to answer. Lu Jiuan was speechless because he hit the nail on the head.

Lu Jiu'an nodded: "I understand."

He walked next to Meng Yitai, Meng Yitai raised his head, and their eyes met.

Lu Jiu'an was a head taller than Meng Yitai, and with a peerless beauty beside him, Lu Jiu'an's appearance was not inferior at all. If it weren't for this situation, anyone who saw her would have praised her for her talent and beauty.

It's so right.

Lu Jiu'an asked loudly: "If you don't agree with Meng Yitai's identity and background in receiving this certificate, please raise your hands."

Everyone onlookers looked at each other. After several hesitations, a few hands were raised. Slowly, more and more hands were raised, and more than 100 hands were raised. Most of the people.

The scholar's face was full of anger and he was shaking with anger.

Lu Jiu'an said nothing more, turned to Meng Yitai, stretched out his left hand to the side, and motioned for her to move.

Meng Yitai looked at the gentle and trusting look in his eyes, then ignored him and moved aside as he was told.

Lu Jiu'an sat boldly where Meng Yitai once sat, took the pipa beside him and played it left and right, and asked her: "Is the posture correct?"

Meng Yitai nodded in agreement.

Lu Jiu'an imitated Meng Yitai's movements, swept his fingers from left to right, closed his eyes, and began to chant and massage. In an instant, the chaotic sound of silk and bamboo changed in high and low, like a magic sound filling his brain.

Mu Lin covered her ears and shouted: "Is Magistrate Lu crazy? I have never heard such unpleasant music. Throwing a handful of rice on the pipa, the chicken pecked it better than him."

Meng Yitai stood away from him. Recently, there have been several times when I wanted to reach out and interrupt him.

After a while, when everyone could no longer bear it, the sound of the piano finally stopped.

Lu Jiu'an asked again: "If you agree with Lu Jiu'an's identity and background to receive this certificate, please raise your hands."

The people looked at each other and laughed.

Magistrate Lu played it so hard that even the cows ran away after hearing it. Who wants to open their eyes and tell lies in public?

Mu Lin didn't give Lu Jiu'an any face: "Magistrate Lu, don't you have any self-awareness? After playing like this, you still want a qualification certificate?"

Lu Jiu'an was puzzled: "Really? But, you are not judged based on your status and background. "?"

Lu Jiu'an's light words fell like an invisible slap on everyone's face.

Lu Jiu'an saw that everyone was silent, so he put his legs and feet together, lowered his eyebrows and nodded. The way he looked was different from the shy expression of a woman's desire. It had another unexplainable expression, but there was a sense of heroism between his brows.

Lu Jiu'an put on a playing posture and looked up from below: "The melodious and melodious piece of music just now was not played by Meng Yitai, but by Lu Jiu'an. I agree with the performance of this piece. Anyone who is a qin artist receiving this certificate, please raise your hands."

The scholar Huo Di just raised his hands like a victorious rooster.

"If this performance is exquisite, no one here can surpass it." Mu Lin raised his hand leisurely.

"The piano skills are extraordinary and the fingering skills are superb." Qin Zhao touched his beautiful beard and closed his eyes with endless aftertaste.

The resurgence and rebirth conveyed by the sound of the piano may be Meng Yitai's autobiography, but it also reflects his half-life.

Qin Zhao raised his hand.

One after another, except for a few who insisted on their own opinions, everyone else raised their hands. Lu Jiu'an smiled slightly without moving his eyes or eyebrows: "It seems that you all agree with me just for the piano skills and playing. Since everyone has won it, let's issue the qualification certificate for musical instrument playing."

"It's just that this piece is not played by me. I can't change the flag of Zhao to the flag of Han. Meng Yitai, you are the rightful winner. , Take it."

The clerk of the Ministry of Rites handed the booklet with the qualification certificate into Meng Yitai's hand. Meng Yitai looked at the three correct words in the booklet, pursed his lips, and the corners of his mouth flashed.

Lu Jiu'an walked back to his original position. Han Zhi folded his arms and looked expressionless. Mu Lin bumped into Lu Jiu'an and teased in a low voice maliciously: "Magistrate Lu has always been honest and upright. I'm afraid that after this incident, , Master Lu's beautiful story about being so angry at his beauty is about to spread, and he doesn't know how many girls and boys he will envy."

Lu Jiu'an was annoyed and kicked away: " What nonsense are you talking about?"

Mu Lin, fearing that the world would not be in chaos, sighed with regret: "It's a pity, it's a pity, the beauty is already a famous flower and has been married to someone else. Doesn't this count as my true love? , but the bright moon shines on the ditch?"

Lu Jiu'an saw that he was getting more and more outrageous, and when he was about to explain, Han Zhi suddenly lowered his eyes and turned away without saying a word.

Lu Jiu'an was stunned: "What's wrong with Brother Han?"

Mu Lin spread his hands and said, "Who knows what this saw-mouthed gourd is thinking about? Maybe it's my heart that illuminates me, but the bright moon shines on the ditch."

Lu Jiu'an was speechless. Mu Lin is really bold and reckless, even daring to make jokes about the general. One day he will be punished severely.

Chapter 053

There were not many people in the assessment. Seeing that it was coming to an end and there were not many left, Lu Jiuan thought for a while and followed Han Zhi.

Han Zhi had long legs and fast feet, but Lu Jiuan was only a few seconds behind before disappearing.

Lu Qi led three people to intercept Lu Jiu'an halfway: "Sir, I found the people you are looking for."

One of the three people was wearing a Taoist robe, one was honest and honest, and the other had faint eyes, but they were so ... Taoist priest, farmer and accountant.

If their abilities are consistent with Lu Jiu'an's conjecture, with a little guidance, they can be regarded as special talents and play an indispensable role in future construction.

Lu Jiu'an called out their names respectively: "Feng Jing? Shen Zhi? Zhu Hao?"

"That's right."

Lu Jiu'an glanced at Zhu Hao's eyes and asked casually: "Are you short-sighted?"

Zhu Hao didn't He understood, but he didn't know how to answer. He buried his head in fear. Lu Jiu'an let out an ouch and patted his head gently: "Are you having trouble seeing?"

Zhu Hao raised his head, his eyes widened, and he felt a little more courageous. "How do you know, sir? To be honest with you, the little one does see things in the distance blurry and not very clear, but things close by are fine."

Lu Jiu'an pointed at the Taoist priest and said with a smile, "Maybe Feng Jing can Help you."

Zhu Hao turned and glanced at the Taoist priest beside him. He didn't know what kind of machine gun Lu Jiu'an was shooting. Feng Jing replied sternly: "I can only read Feng Shui and do fortune-telling, but I can't cure diseases.

" After calling him Feng Jing, the Taoist looked at Xianfeng Daogu from a distance, and looked closely at his features and skin, but he was only in his early thirties. I don't know if he was actually older and could take care of himself, or if he dressed like this on purpose.

Lu Jiu'an only glanced at it, turned around and walked towards the study: "I don't know if I can help you now. I need to understand your situation first. Come together."

Seeing the three of them standing still, Lu Qi thought to himself They were really stupid. He pushed the three of them from behind and reminded: "Don't be stunned, uncles, you have gained the favor of the adults, and you should follow the adults. If you succeed, you can do things with the adults."

After a pause . , and added: "My master is easy-going and considerate of his subordinates. Following him is a blessing you have gained in the first half of your life. You must take advantage of it."

The three of them followed Lu Jiu'an into the study. Lu Jiu'an's study was full of various things. There are various kinds of books, and there are several inkstones on the nanmu book table. The study room exudes a strong fragrance of books and ink.

Shen Zhi has been a farmer for most of his life, and has never stepped into such an elegant place. His eyes seemed to be unseeing, and he glanced around the house.

The Taoist priest and the accounting clerk were more cautious and stood respectfully with their heads bowed since entering the door.

"No need to be restrained, just sit down first."

There are three rattan bamboo chairs in front of the desk. The chairs are covered with soft cushions, and a slightly protruding cushion is placed on the back of the chair. The three of them sat on it and felt that the stool was warm and soft, and there was no squish at all.

Mr. Accountant has been working at his desk all year round and has an old problem with his spine. His waist gets sore when he sits for a long time. I don't know who thought this cushion was, but it just fit the person's lower back. Zhu Hao exclaimed: "The things Master Lu uses are really unique. I have been in the master's house for so long, and I have never seen it in his house." Such a thoughtful little thing."

Lu Jiu'an said, "Not only have you never seen one, but no one else has seen it either. I'll give you one when the time comes.

" After only a few words of conversation, he received a reward. Zhu Hao's mouth cracked and he declined reservedly. The county magistrate didn't care much about this thing and insisted on giving it to him. Zhu Hao accepted it.

Zhu Hao touched the cushion happily and couldn't put it down. Shen Zhi looked at it with an envious look.

Lu Jiu'an said: "I called you here today because the type of assessment you filled out cannot get a suitable qualification certificate at the assessment point. So I asked Lu Qi to find you alone, and I will interview you." Lu Jiu'an

transferred He turned his head and looked at Shen Zhi: "You said you are good at farming. How many stones per mu can you produce? How different is it from others? From planting to harvesting, do you know what causes such a high yield?"

Shen Zhi bore the brunt and was beaten by Lu Jiu An asked a few questions solemnly, swallowing his saliva in fear, his mind went blank and he couldn't think of anything.

When Lu Jiu'an faced work, he couldn't help but take on the serious look of his previous life. He realized that he and they were not in a relationship between superiors and subordinates, and there were differences brought about by class status.

Lu Jiu'an looked around and saw a tea set placed by Mu Lin next to the low couch. He walked over and picked up the teapot and stirred it. Seeing that there was still tea in it, he made a cup for each of them and served it to them: "Drink some water." "Speak slowly."

After drinking the warm water, Shen Zhi became less nervous. He thought about it in his head and answered the questions in detail: "A small autumn harvest of rice can produce up to 3 shi per mu. Ordinary people usually only have 3 shi per mu." It can reach one and a half stones, but floods have become more and more frequent in the past two years, and the harvest has become less and less. This year, no grains were harvested, and they all rotted and sprouted in the fields. "

One stone is equivalent to one hundred and twenty kilograms, in this day and age. , such a gap is enough to make people jealous.

"If you want to say the reason, it's probably because I raise it more carefully and fertilize it more abundantly. Oh, when I breed rice seeds, I like to choose the kind of dwarf bead seed."

That's it! Lu Jiuan took part in the crime.

Lu Jiu'an grew up in a town and could not distinguish between millet and millet, wheat and ointment. When he was in high school, his biology teacher brought some real objects for his classmates to identify. Lu Jiu'an happened to be drawn. Lu Jiu'an couldn't answer and was laughed at.

So in that class, the biology teacher talked about the evolution of rice yield from ancient times to modern times. When analyzing the reasons, Lu Jiuan listened particularly carefully. In addition to the construction of water science, the improvement of production tools and technology, one of them was the rice itself. Variety reasons.

In ancient times, rice plants were taller and had poor lodging resistance, making it difficult to grow healthily to maturity. Either they died early, or they were blown down by the wind when they reached the fruiting stage.

Lu Jiu'an encouraged: "Think again, is there any other reason?"

Shen Zhi tried hard to think about it, but he couldn't think of any reason anymore. A bold idea came to his mind, otherwise he could just make up some nonsense, the county Even adults don't know much about farming.

However, when he thought of what Lu Jiu'an had done for the people, he felt that it was hard for his conscience to deceive such a parent official. He was already honest, and finally shook his head: "It should be gone. I don't know why others are so good at planting. "

After Shen Zhish said this, he stared at Lu Jiu'an anxiously and dug his fingers on the chair. Maybe I feel that I did not perform well and lost this golden opportunity.

Lu Jiu'an gave him reassurance: "Although you didn't say anything this time, it is a fact that you can farm. When the time comes, I will give you a task. I will give you 9 points of land and 3 points of land." Plant one part according to your own method, and plant three parts according to the method I gave you. For the last piece of land, you can combine your own experience and combine our methods to plant it. If you do it well, you will be rewarded with 3 taels of silver for one piece. The land yield is 5 shi per mu, plus 3 taels

of silver! Shen Zhi's breathing was rapid and his eyes were red.

To sow, you must sow, and you have to risk your life to sow it.

Lu Jiu'an continued: "In addition, you have to record down the farming methods of the three plots of land from beginning to end."

Shen Zhiwei said: "Sir, the younger one is illiterate."

Lu Jiu'an said: "Don't worry, a recordkeeper will be assigned to you at that time to serve you." He easily dispelled his worries.

Shen Zhi's face turned red, his mouth opened and closed, and he was so excited that he couldn't speak for a long time.

Lu Jiu'an turned to Mr. Zhu Hao, the accountant, and said, "You claim to be an expert in calculations. You don't need to borrow an abacus. You only need paper and pen. You can get the results within a few breaths by giving you numbers. You have never made any mistakes. How dare you talk to our county government office?" "

Zhu Hao has prospered with his undisclosed arithmetic skills. If it hadn't been for natural and man-made disasters, Zhu Hao would not have come to Yingping."

The subject of the competition now was a boy who was not yet 15 years old. Zhu Hao was naturally full of confidence and said, "I am willing to give it a try."

Lu Qi stood guard outside the study room and was always available. After he sat down, Zhu Hao borrowed a page of paper. A pen was placed in front of him, but his hands were empty. Zhu Hao was surprised: "Won't Lu Changsui borrow some tools?"

Lu Qi said: "I rely on mental arithmetic."

With half doubt and half anger at being provoked, Zhu Hao secretly said to the arrogant child.

Lu Jiu'an asked the question: "What is the total of five 321s?"

Zhu Hao was delighted. This question might be difficult for others, but it couldn't be easier for him. Before he picked up the pen, Lu Qi suddenly blurted out: "1605." He hadn't even thought about it.

Zhu Hao subconsciously wanted to deny the other party's answer. He was so quick and could not be making nonsense.

Fortunately, he was rational. He picked up the pen and quickly calculated, and it was indeed one thousand, six hundred and five, exactly.

Zhu Hao questioned Magistrate Lu again. Could it be that the two of them had colluded in advance? How could anyone calculate so quickly?

Lu Jiu'an seemed to know his inner doubts and smiled slightly: "There are five of us in the study. Each of us will come up with a set of numbers. Shen Zhi, you come first."

So starting from Shen Zhi, everyone came up with a set of numbers, but everyone Once, Lu Qi seemed to know the answer in advance. While Zhu Hao was still writing, he reported the final total.

When it was Zhu Hao's turn, he racked his brains and came up with a set of difficult numbers. Lu Qi just rolled his eyes, muttered something, and after a moment's delay, he gave the answer.

"This is impossible." Zhu Hao's proud ability was crushed by a young man, his hands were shaking slightly, and his face was full of disbelief: "Is Lu Changsui a prodigy?"

After several months of training, the results of Lu Changsui were successful. Lifting his chin, he showed a smug look on his face: "No, it's my adults who taught me addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Once I'm proficient, I can do mental arithmetic. If I encounter a larger number, I also have to borrow paper. Pen, but it should still be faster than you."

Zhu Hao was almost knocked unconscious. Seeing this, Lu Jiu'an comforted you: "I didn't come to you to humiliate you. I saw your calculation method and it's really not easy to make mistakes. ,

each has its own merits. And you are sensitive to numbers. If you master addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, you can do it quickly and accurately by using one set for calculation and the other for verification. This is my method."

Lu Jiu'an nodded: "I will not only pass it on to you, I plan to popularize this efficient calculation method. When the time comes, I will let Lu Qi teach it to you and the county government's accountant. After you learn it, I will. The official will officially hire you for accounting training, and you will teach others. But in this case, you will need to contribute your own method of recording accounts. Are you willing?"

Lu Jiu'an worked hard and gave me a stick. For a date, what we are considering is nothing more than a large county government. Financial expenditure is the top priority. If we continue to develop in the future, the expenditure will be huge. If there is no systematic accounting, if there is an error in the process, it will have to start from the beginning. Tracing back to the source in a huge pile of data is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

Lu Jiu'an remembered that when he was at the company, he heard that a cashier paid an extra dollar to someone when he was paying wages. He was so upset that he almost called the police and arrested him, so as to avoid the nightmare of auditing the accounts.

However, the accounting industry is too sophisticated and professional, and Lu Jiu'an happened to have no similar relevant information in his computer. Lu Jiu'an could only start with the local indigenous people, find some professional "accountants", and first train a group of them for his own use.

The sweetness offered by Lu Jiu'an was too tempting, and Zhu Buo agreed without hesitation.

Lu Jiu'an turned his eyes to the last person: "Taoist Master Feng Jing, let's talk about you. Can you make alchemy?"

Chapter 054

As soon as Lu Jiu'an said these words, both Shen Zhi, who was immersed in the dream of 9-point fertile land, and Zhu Hao, who was thinking about addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, fantasizing about becoming a master of calculation, stopped their wild imagination and looked at Lu Jiu'an in unison. Peace.

Did County Magistrate Lu come to see the Taoist priest for this idea?

Lu Qi was stunned: "Sir? You want to pursue the art of immortality? Didn't you tell me before that this is a lie?"

Lu Jiu'an laughed dumbly and shook his head at Lu Qi without explaining too much.

As the subject of the question, Feng Jing kept his mouth shut, as if he didn't hear Lu Jiu'an's question. Lu Jiu'an was puzzled and raised his voice slightly: "Master Feng Jing, yes or no, you can give me an answer. "

Feng Jing raised his eyelids and said the words intact: "I am good at reading Feng Shui and fortune telling and doing rituals."

Lu Jiuan looked disappointed and stared into his eyes and said, "Don't you

know how to make elixirs?" Thinking of something, his face changed slightly, he didn't dare to look at him and turned his head sideways.

You must know that the most important thing when interviewing candidates in human resources is to observe their words and expressions, so as to judge the authenticity of the candidates' words from the subtle changes in their expressions.

As an art director, Lu Jiu'an has been working hard in society for so many years. When the department recruits new people, he has interviewed countless people together, and he has long since developed the skill to see through appearances to see the essence.

Lu Jiuan didn't even need to figure out Feng Jing's poor cover-up, he could easily see that he was lying.

Oh, it seems that it's not impossible, there's something else hidden.

Lu Jiu'an patiently used his gentle tone to coax children: "Master Feng, to be honest, I am very optimistic about you, but if you can make alchemy, that will be the icing on the cake, good or bad. Tell me something else." Feng Jing

turned to look at him and finally relaxed, saying humiliatedly: "A little bit, but not much."

"How much is that?"

When asked about his helplessness, he gave up and said: "When I was in the Taoist temple, because I liked to try different materials for alchemy, the alchemy room was blown up many times. I was kicked out of the Taoist temple by the temple owner. If Mr. Lu wants to make alchemy, you still Find someone else."

The study fell into silence. Lu Jiuan couldn't hold it in for a long time and laughed out loud unkindly. Several others couldn't help but laugh.

Lu Jiuan was almost laughing to death. It turned out that the Taoist Priest appeared to be an enigmatic immortal, but secretly he was an expert at frying furnaces.

Frying the furnace is good, but it takes seconds to fry the furnace. A Taoist priest who doesn't blow up the furnace is not a good chemist.

Lu Jiu'an finally stopped laughing and said with tears in his eyes: "No, Taoist Master Feng Jing, I am looking for you. I like to try, this is a very admirable fine tradition. It doesn't matter if it explodes, the world is difficult, it will happen The great things in the world must be done in detail. I have a lot of materials for you to try. I will find a cave for you and build a Taoist temple for you. "

The Chinese Taoist priests are like the European alchemists. Similarly, in order to make elixirs, they like to use various ore raw materials and metal powders to synthesize elixir pills.

They used strange methods such as steaming, fire refining, and wine bait to obtain all kinds of magical things. Even gunpowder, a deadly weapon, was unknowingly produced during the alchemy process.

They were an early group of natural chemists.

Feng Jing said that he often blew up furnaces, and Lu Jiu'an had reason to suspect that he had touched the threshold of gunpowder.

With rapid development in the future, why are there so many chemists missing?

No matter how many assumptions Feng Jing made in his mind, he never expected such a result. Magistrate Lu didn't take a fancy to fortune-telling, Feng Shui or doing things, so why did he choose to do something that others would avoid doing?

Lu Jiu'an stretched out three fingers: "Three full meals a day, a combination of meat and vegetables, three dishes and one soup, never the same within a week."

Feng Jing took a deep breath and agreed shamefully.

In fact, because of the previous furnace explosion, all the wealth was lost to the viewer. He was so poor now that he couldn't even eat. People are like iron rice and steel. If they don't eat one meal, they will feel hungry. Isn't life just about making a living? It's better not to struggle with your stomach.

Three people were hired as special talents, and each got what they wanted and were satisfied.

Lu Jiu'an designated a recorder for Shen Zhi that day and took him to the allocated official fields: "These are three fields of medium quality. There will still be some time before spring plowing next year. You start with soil improvement.

" He took out a bag of grain seeds and handed it to him: "You can pick the seeds here by yourself when the time comes. As a former refugee who settled in Yingping, you must have plans to open up wasteland. You can use the remaining seeds to plant them in your own land." Let's put it on the land."

This bag of grain is 5 kilograms. If the 9 points of land are filled with 1 kilogram, at least 4 acres of land can be planted. Shen Zhimei smiled and took it gratefully.

Lu Jiuan took out a booklet. This booklet was the Huaxia Agricultural Science Encyclopedia that Lu Jiuan swapped out from his computer, and he extracted important excerpts from it.

The Agricultural Science Encyclopedia has a total of more than 500 pages, of which a quarter is related to the introduction of rice. It needs to be read, screened and copied on paper. Lu Jiuan no longer wanted to look back on the process, it was an unforgettable level of hell.

Logically speaking, this time of consolidating the people and eradicating the epidemic is a matter of great merit and benefit to the people. Lu Jiuan has indeed gained a lot of reputation points. However, due to the insufficient population base, he only has a total of 60,000 energy. He is far away from his heart. The printer is still short of 40,000 yuan.

This excerpt made him determined to unlock the all-in-one scanner and printer next time. Every time he copied books, his wrist was so tired that it seemed like it was about to break, and it took him a lot of time.

He solemnly handed the condensed version of rice cultivation to the recorder: "Lu Qi should have informed you of your work one by one. Shen Zhi is illiterate, so you read it to him and record his farming process carefully. From now on, the two of you are a team, sharing weal and woe, do you understand?"

The recorder received it. The thing in his hand was as heavy as a thousand pounds. He nodded heavily, with a firm and solemn look in his eyes: "I will live up to your trust."

And Zhu Hao has already said . I couldn't wait any longer, so I took the initiative to find him, and he was about to join the company on the same day.

The household department and accountant in the county government, together with Zhu Hao, learned addition, subtraction, multiplication and division calculations from Zhang Sui. To learn multiplication and division, they naturally had to memorize the multiplication table.

Lu Qi was forced to carry it on his back for more than a month. Every time Lu Jiuan took the exam, he felt despair. Now it was someone else who had to deal with the situation. Lu Qi smiled maliciously at the three of them.

Lu Qi started teaching by learning Arabic numerals, and was officially promoted to become a mathematics teacher.

Taoist Feng Jing's laboratory is still under construction, so he cannot start work immediately, but as a retainer of the county magistrate, he has settled in the county government office.

As the number of people eating at the county government increased, and seeing that the original kitchen and waiters were no longer enough, Lu Jiuan opened a new place as the public canteen of the county government to provide meals for these on-the-job employees.

The next day when Feng Jing went to the cafeteria on time to report for dinner, Lu Jiuan almost didn't recognize him.

Because Feng Jing was thinking about having to deal with fires in the future, he was worried that one day he would accidentally light his beard on fire and burn himself, so he shaved off the beard he had grown for several years. The beard itself is to make himself look like a virtuous person in order to attract customers. Now that he has a long-term meal ticket, he naturally doesn't need it anymore.

Behind the layers of beard, Feng Jing actually had a baby face. After shaving, he looked more than ten years younger, like a young man who had just graduated.

Everyone almost thought he was a kid from some family who came here to get food. After all, the county government's employee canteen is now famous. Not only is the environment clean and tidy, the food is sufficient, and even the taste is first-class.

If Feng Jing hadn't taken out his employee badge in time, the aunt in the cafeteria would have kicked him out.

Lu Jiu'an looked at this very deceptive face and asked, "Master Feng?"

"I'm here."

"Did you lie about your age?"

Feng Jing looked angrily, his nose was twitching, and there was no beard to cover it. It has completely lost its intimidating power, like a little milk cat showing its teeth and claws.

"I have passed my thirtieth year. I am indeed thirty-four." Sure enough, I shouldn't shave off my beard. I'd better grow a short beard next time.

Lu Jiu'an was very surprised. He was thirty-four years old and looked much younger than General Han.

Having said that, Han Zhi became famous as a young man, and he looked majestic and formidable. Ordinary people would not dare to look at him, and they didn't know how old he was. He and the other person who are close friends must be over thirty years old.

Five days later, the assessment in the craft section ended. Only one person passed the assessment, that is, the smelting blacksmith.

The content of the blacksmith's assessment was proposed by Xie Huailiang. He had already had his own ideas about it. On the day of the assessment, Xie Huailiang gave him a drawing, which showed exactly the components of the wall clock's operating components. Parts were required to be scaled up and made.

After the blacksmith submitted his work, Xie Huailiang was very satisfied with it and immediately gave him a perfect score of 10. The three judges averaged the scores and the blacksmith passed successfully.

In this way, the first simple talent qualification examination was completed. It must be said that although the method was very rough, the effect was still very satisfactory. Lu Jiuan gained a lot of talents for Ying Ping.

There are the most academic talents, with a total of 26 talents. They are students from poor families, and Lu Jiuan offers so many discounts, which is enough to attract them.

There are no more bachelors above the scholar level. Lu Jiuan is already satisfied. He is just promoting people to become scholars. The future is long, so he can cultivate them slowly.

For technical talents, there are two departments of medicine, one department of engineering, and three departments of art. The three art departments are respectively majoring in music, painting, calligraphy, and sports.

In addition, there are the departments of agriculture, chemistry and financial management recruited by Lu Jiuan.

Compared to the usual situation when I first arrived in Ying, where I had nothing to ask for, now I can say that there are a lot of talents.

The cold wind was blowing, and all the leaves of the 500-year-old ginkgo tree had fallen off, leaving only bare branches.

The ground was covered with layers of fallen leaves, which looked like a golden carpet from a distance. The boy held the broom and swept the fallen leaves into a pile. A gust of wind blew over and the fallen leaves flew everywhere. He swept them all afternoon. All previous efforts were wasted.

Lu Jiuan and his team of government officials went for morning jogs every day, rain or shine. The young man was young and full of energy, while the others were wrapped in thick winter clothes and had cold hands and feet. They ran around the county government office twice, their bodies burning and sweating profusely.

Lu Jiu'an already had a thin layer of muscles on his body and had grown a little taller. He was wearing a high ponytail and was looking smart. He was standing next to the tall Han Zhi, sweating and panting slightly. He looked at the passing maids with awe. Blushing and heartbeat.

"This is what a man should look like." Lu Jiu'an touched his hard chest narcissistically, and then squeezed the muscles in Han Zhi's hand: "Brother Han is still harder."

Han Zhi clenched his fists He took a step back and said, "This is just right for you."

Lu Qi was not to be outdone: "Sir, I have grown taller too."

He was fed milk and eggs by Lu Jiu'an, and the biggest change was that he looked the same every day, and his size had already reached Lu Jiu'an's height. Long-lasting chin. He is only 15 years old. If he continues like this, he might surpass Lu Jiu'an in the future.

Lu Jiu'an touched his head, like an old father, feeling happy that our son has just grown up.

"Let's go to the cafeteria for breakfast."

The government officials walked towards the cafeteria in groups. The people in charge of serving food in the cafeteria were all the women who used to do such work as sweeping the floor and wiping tables in the county government office. They were not like the aunts in the school cafeteria. Even with trembling hands, the portions of the meals served are generous. If the county government employees feel that they are not full yet, they can add more at any time.

When the cafeteria was first built, Lu Jiu'an still ran a small stove by himself. Later, in order to get closer to the crowd, he also ate the food in the lobby. It must be said that the chef he recruited was indeed very good.

Lu Jiu'an brought a bowl of clear porridge and picked up a few side dishes. He had just sat down next to Han Zhi when he suddenly heard three loud "dong dong dong" sounds.

"What's the sound?"

"Boom!" "

Boom!"

"Boom!"

...

After a short pause, the sound persisted again, one sound higher than the other, heavy and long, rising from the county government lobby, Through the rolling fog of the early morning, it hit the ears of everyone present.

The yamen servants put down their bowls and chopsticks with a loud noise, and stood up one after another. Zhao Laosan shouted: "Someone is beating the drum, all officials must gather immediately."

The drum has been kept in the lobby of the county government, and is used by the people to beat the drum and complain about grievances. Except for Lu When Jiu An was furious and reorganized the government officials, the drum was like a sleeping judge and never sounded.

Now, it rings.

If Ying Ping is getting better today, who will beat the drum to complain?

Lu Jiu'an didn't even eat breakfast and made a quick decision: "Gather and ascend to the hall!"

Chapter 055:

Zaoban, who was in charge of the case at the Shengtang station, quickly threw down the dishes and chopsticks. They had to go to the lobby first. The yamen servants with other duties sat neatly in the canteen, eating while waiting for Lu Jiuan's order.

"Brother Han, eat slowly. I haven't changed into my official uniform yet, so go ahead."

Lu Jiuan's figure quickly disappeared at the door of the cafeteria. Han Zhi quickly finished the rice in the bowl, thought about it, and planned to pick up some more. Take a cake with you. Lu Jiu'an didn't have breakfast. He was afraid that his stomach would growl with hunger again halfway through the ceremony.

The yamen servants who were queuing up for extra meals respectfully made room for him. After Han Zhi's identity as a general was revealed, the yamen servants who used to love and fear him as much as an instructor were all impressed by the general's reputation. Now they are filled with reverence.

It turned out that the one who had been teaching them was the General Zhenyuan who trained the Twelve Horsemen.

One day, they can become soldiers led by General Han. How lucky they are to have such an honor.

Lu Jiu'an put on his official uniform and official hat, and transformed from the handsome and athletic boy into a dignified young county magistrate.

There was a huge crowd of people outside the Yamen. Men, women, old and young gathered to watch the excitement. Where everyone's eyes were pointing, there was a huge drum placed in front of the Yamen.

There were four people of different shapes clustered in front of the hall, a man with a bruised nose and a swollen face, an indignant old lady, an indignant girl, and a woman with a graceful figure.

The woman held a drumstick in her drooping hand, holding it in a slim and elegant manner. She stood in front of the noisy crowd, facing the eyes of different expressions from all directions, with an indifferent expression, like a bystander.

"Magistrate Lu is here."

The woman turned her head following the call, revealing a face as beautiful as jade. It was none other than Meng Yitai, who had caused controversy by singing Tianyin at the assessment site not long ago.

It was actually her who made this false accusation.

Lu Jiu'an looked back and forth at the four of them, already thinking about it.

The yamen servants stood solemnly on both sides of the hall. Lu Jiuan walked to the hall and sat down. The yamen servants sang "Shengtang" and announced the official opening of the hall.

The four of them knelt on the bluestone in front of the hall. Lu Jiu'an slapped the gavel on the table in the lobby with a "snap" sound: "The sky and the earth are clear. The accuser Meng Yitai has grievances to complain about."

Meng Yitai kowtowed: "Daughter of the people. Accuse Chen Luo of being frivolous..."

Before she could finish her words, the old lady kneeling on the other side said excitedly: "Your Excellency, the magistrate, I want to accuse these two unruly women."

Lu Jiu'an snorted and pointed at Meng Yitai: "Everything is first come, first served. Since it is Meng Yitai who plays the drum, she should file the complaint first."

The old lady looked unhappy and glared at her side fiercely . man.

Meng Yitai continued what he had interrupted before: "A civilian girl came to Yingping after fleeing from the disaster. When she met the man next to her, she was entangled in every possible way by him. He and I were strangers, and we rejected him many times, openly and secretly. Not only did he not He even broke into the courtyard of the women and wanted to do something inappropriate. "

"Nonsense." The man with a bruised nose and swollen face refused to cry out in pain and retorted loudly: "We are strangers. It was obviously you who seduced me first. "

The girl next to Meng Yitai is in her prime, but she has a bad temper. When the man said this, his eyebrows stood up and he stood up immediately. The man quickly shrank and hid behind the old lady.

"How can we allow you to make loud noises in the courtroom? Keep quiet." The officer held out his killing stick, and the girl bit her lip, suppressing her anger and knelt back.

Meng Yitai was not in a hurry: "Why do you want to seduce me? Weizhu and I met halfway, and we have always been close to each other, and we are like sisters. After arriving in Yingping, I got the pity of the elder brother of the government officer and was given an abandoned old house. Because The house is too small, only Zhumei and I live there. Chen Luo's courtyard is on the other side of the bridge. We just pass each other by each other on weekdays, and we don't even say a word

. There were ups and downs in Kankan: "Later, he came to the girl several times and said he wanted to take me as his concubine. I didn't agree, but Wei Zhu saw..."

"You don't agree?" The old lady screamed sharply: "What right do you have to disagree? You are a ruined widow. My son likes you and is willing to take you as his concubine and give you a title. It is a blessing that you have earned over several lifetimes."

There were old ladies in the lobby . With an unyielding voice, Chen Luopan echoed beside the old lady: "That's right. Besides, every time you meet me on the road, you always give me flirtatious looks. What if it's not a hint of seduction? If a man doesn't express his feelings after being hinted like this, then what's the point? "Call me a man?"

"Are you trying to force me, Sister Meng, regardless of her wishes? You are a scumbag inferior to a beast."

Zhan Weizhu couldn't bear it any longer, no matter where he was, he clenched his fists and raised his fists. Rushing towards Chen Luo, Mrs. Chen opened her arms like an old hen to protect her son.

Zhan Weizhu was very agile, but Mrs. Chen couldn't protect her. Chen Luo couldn't fight back against Zhan Weizhu's fists and kicks, and he screamed after being beaten.

Lu Jiuan and others were stunned.

This girl is really a sweetheart, and she is really too tough.

However, Lu Jiuan had no intention of stopping at all, he held his chin up and watched with gusto.

A rotten person like Chen Luo, who has no self-awareness at all, is full of evil thoughts and can't contain them. Instead, he puts the blame on a woman, which is simply a disgrace to their men. It's up to a tough girl like Zhan Weizhu to take care of her.

Zhan Weizhu didn't spare any effort in his attack. Chen Luo was chased and beaten until he was hiding and crying. Old Mrs. Chen acted like a rogue, sitting on the ground, crying and cursing Meng Yitai.

"Tricky women, no wonder one of them can't get married and the other kills her husband."

The courtroom was like a stage.

When Lu Jiuan saw that Zhan Weizhu was almost beaten, he pretended to ask the Yamen servant to separate the two groups. The old lady looked at the wounds on Chen Luo's face heartbrokenly. When he came, his face was full of bruises, and now it was swollen to the point of being visible. No longer showing his true colors.

"Mr. Lu, you have to make decisions for the people. That's how they beat my son yesterday. Since ancient times, men have taught women in the family. They don't follow women's ethics and actually beat my son in turn."

"Why can't you beat me? Who let me? " Is he bullying Sister Meng?"

"That's because she's shameless!"

Lu Jiu'an sneered repeatedly. The shamelessness of this family was clearly written on their faces when they talked about robbing women.

It's not that if a family doesn't come into the same family, the kind of son they have will be the same kind of parents. No, it should be the same kind of son as the kind of parents they have.

The mother's moral character is corrupt, and the son she teaches is not much better under the influence of her ears and eyes.

Lu Jiu'an thought of this, sneered, looked around, and suddenly asked: "I wonder what the people think?"

The people's opinions were divided into two groups. One group thought: "Flies don't stare at seamless eggs. Meng Yitai just Not long after coming to Yingping, there were two such big commotions. It must be his own problem."

Another person thought: "No matter what, you can't hit people. Although Chen Luo also has problems, it doesn't mean there's nothing wrong with him. Do you want to do this? If a woman suffers this kind of thing, no one can hide it, so Meng Yitai has to make it known to the world, don't be ashamed."

The people had different opinions, but no one stood up for the real victim.

It is a poor place with backward education and no ability to distinguish right from wrong. It is really pitiful, sad and deplorable.

Meng Yitai looked forward, without saying a word to defend himself from beginning to end. There was no sadness or joy on his face, as if he had become accustomed to it.

Although the idea that men are superior to women is not that serious in the Zhou Dynasty, women do not have to strictly follow the three obediences and the four virtues. They can study and practice essays, and they can also show themselves in public. However, in Yingping, it was limited to this.

Lu Jiu'an slapped the gavel hard, and the whispers stopped immediately.

Lu Jiu'an walked out from behind the desk in one step and walked all the way to Mrs. Chen. He knelt down and patted the dust on her clothes.

Old Mrs. Chen was frightened. Lu Jiuan looked at Old Mrs. Chen and asked curiously: "Do you have any fruit trees at home?"

Old Mrs. Chen was stunned by the question and hesitated: "Yes."

"What kind of fruit trees do you have? " The fruit is the most delicious."

Mrs. Chen answered immediately without thinking, with a face full of pride: "The fig in front of my door has big and fragrant fruit. I have been taking care of it for many years. I am sure there are no figs in the surrounding area. This one is so good for everyone."

Lu Jiu'an's eyes lit up: "It's so good, I wonder if I will have a chance to eat it."

Mrs. Chen's face was full of flattery, and her face was full of wrinkles: "I have finished eating this year's fruit. "If you like it, I will bring you some next year."

Lu Jiu'an frowned with worry on his face and said, "But your fruit grows so well, don't you want it to be coveted by people passing by?" I have to worry about it all the time. Isn't it tiring?"

Old Mrs. Chen said: "Thank you for your concern, they don't dare. I have a big dog to help me guard the house."

"There is no such thing as a foolproof thing in the world . . What should you do if one day you go out and see someone picking the figs you carefully raised?"

Mrs. Chen is not usually a bad person. When Lu Jiu'an said this, it seemed that someone had really picked them. Fig: "If you dare to steal my things, if I catch him and interrupt him, and then send him to the county government, Mr. Lu will definitely let me make the decision."

Lu Jiu'an touched his chin, very embarrassed: "But that person said it was It's your figs' fault. He couldn't help but pick them because they were so good. And they shouldn't have been planted outside. If they were grown inside the house, he wouldn't be able to eat them."

Mrs. Chen was angry. Crazy: "Isn't this person a scoundrel? How can he be so unreasonable? No matter how good my figs grow, he can't eat them? He didn't ask me. That's stealing. If you steal, you will be charged with theft."

" Well, when using a person, you must be clear about it; if you don't ask, it is stealing. Mrs. Chen is a sensible person, what you said makes sense." Lu Jiu settled down and said slowly, "If that's the case. If I ask you, do you agree?"

"I have worked so hard to grow it, so why should I let him pick it?"

"If you don't agree, why does he have to pick it?"

Old Mrs. Chen gritted her teeth: "That's a clear robbery! You have to hit the board!"

Lu Jiuan clapped his hands, as if he had solved a problem of the century. He walked quickly back to the desk, walked back and forth in front of the three-color lottery ticket tube, and finally pulled out four red lottery tickets and threw them away. He came to Chen Luo and said, "According to what Mrs. Chen said, Chen Luo was sentenced for theft. Considering that the attempt failed, I only slapped 40 yuan."

Mrs. Chen didn't understand that she had been easy-going and even talked to her in a domestic way. Why did County Magistrate Lu convict her son the next moment as if he was enforcing the law strictly?

Old Mrs. Chen was completely stunned: "Magistrate Lu, are you mistaken? When did my son commit the crime of theft?"

"You said that taking something without asking is considered theft."

Old Mrs. Lu His eyes widened: "I didn't...I didn't, I...my son asked, but Meng Yitai didn't agree."

Lu Jiu'an nodded: "That's an open grab, fight 50 big Boss."

Until now, Mrs. Lu still didn't understand that she had walked into Lu Jiu'an's trap. Facing Lu Jiu'an's kind-faced look, she felt cold all over and collapsed on the ground and kowtowed.

"Magistrate Lu, please forgive me. He didn't steal or rob. He just wanted to take a concubine. Our old hen only eats food but doesn't lay eggs. If this continues, how can he be worthy of his ancestors?"

Chen Luo was trembling all over, and followed Mrs. Chen to lie on the ground and kowtow to beg for mercy.

Lu Jiu'an was unmoved: "Your folks and neighbors just want to eat figs. Their fig trees don't bear fruit, so they can only eat yours."

"How can this be the same?" Mrs. Lu's usual arrogance and meanness are completely gone. He didn't see it, and tears were streaming down his wrinkled face: "How can people and food be compared? He was just... just... just motivated by sex, and was confused for a moment. Sir, he will never be the same again." I don't dare anymore."

Lu Jiu'an despised Chen Luo even more. Not only was this man a scumbag, but he was also a mama's boy. He did something wrong and didn't take responsibility. He blamed his mother for crying and begging for mercy. It really made him a second child. My sister said that marriage is not worth taking advantage of.

Lu Jiu'an wanted to show his quickness and threw the command tube hard at his face. Finally, he gritted his teeth and held back.

Lu Jiu'an said: "That makes sense to you. Then sentence your son to the crime of promiscuity?"

I have only heard of women's promiscuity. When did men also have the crime of promiscuity?

Old Mrs. Chen asked cautiously: "How should a man be punished for promiscuity?"

Lu Jiu'an shook his head: "I don't know, I don't know, the laws of Dazhou are not written." Old

Mrs. Chen was overjoyed, and before she could kowtow to thank her, Lu Jiu'an said: "Then let's treat it like a woman. I heard that in some places, if a woman doesn't keep herself clean, she will be dipped in a pig cage. How about your son also be dipped in a pig cage?"

"What?" Chen Luo looked shocked after hearing this. Hei, very hopeless, fainted on the spot.

Old Mrs. Chen started to cry again. Most of the people watching were men, and their faces turned pale with fright.

Although Chen Luo didn't do anything now, the situation was so bad that even in modern times it could be considered an attempted rape. If he let it go, who knows if other women would be victimized. Lu Jiu'an didn't want to let him off easily.

There are so many people attending the trial at the scene, so it is necessary to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

Chen Luo was pinched by a yamen servant and woke up quietly, and had to face Lu Jiu'an in a rage. He was so regretful now that his intestines were green. It was not good to provoke anyone, so he had to provoke Meng Yizhao. Not only was he beaten up by the evil girl named Zhan, but he was also taken to the county government office. If he was really soaked in a pig cage, his life would be over.

Seeing that he was very frightened, Lu Jiuan achieved the purpose of warning. It was inevitable to be punished with death, and it was inevitable to be punished with life. So he took out two red sticks and threw them in front of him, and finally gave him a full sixty blows.

Mrs. Chen was originally willing to go to court with Meng Yitai, but she just wanted to sue Zhan Weizhu and Meng Yitai for beating Chen Luo, and then ask for some medical expenses.

At this moment, it was impossible to steal the chicken but lose the rice. The son finally saved his life and did not dare to mention anything. He helped the pale-faced Chen Luo to leave dejectedly.

Meng Yitai kowtowed to Lu Jiu'an: "Thank you, Magistrate Lu, for taking the decision for the daughter of the people."

After watching the excitement, the crowd slowly dispersed like running water. Before everyone left, Lu Jiu'an suddenly stopped Meng Yitai in front of everyone. : "The county government will host many activities in the future, and there is a lack of warm-up programs. Meng Yitai, you are an expert at playing the piano and painting. I don't want to bury your talent. Are you willing to become the county government's dedicated violinist?"

Chapter 056

Lu Jiuan had always had the idea of ​​recruiting Meng Yitai, but the time had not come yet, so he thought to look at it after a while.

Seeing that she was having a hard time now, even if she was doing her own thing with peace of mind, trouble would still come to her door, so she felt compassion.

Let's recruit them first. Even if there is no need for literary and artistic workers to perform on stage yet, her calligraphy and painting are still well-known. When the time comes, I will ask a few children in the family if they are interested. I might as well start as a literary and art teacher.

Meng Yitai didn't have any special reaction after hearing this. Zhan Weizhu beside her was filled with surprises and was afraid that Meng Yitai would reject Lu Jiu'an's solicitation, so he stretched out his hand to pull her sleeves.

Naturally, Meng Yitai would not refuse, and replied: "It's my honor."

The conclusion of this case was really satisfying. It was rare for the government officials who were on the case to participate in such a comfortable case. Jiang Fang, who had previously received Meng Yitai, He was cleaning up the bloodstains on the ground, scrubbing, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became: "How could a person like Chen Luo have the nerve to force Madam Meng?"

He had always had a good impression of Meng Yitai, so when he slapped Chen Luo, he brought him with him Being selfish, he spared no effort to hit his flesh, spanking his two buttocks until the flesh was ripped open and blood flowed.

The officials all nodded in agreement, and Mu Lin asked Magistrate Lu: "Xiao Tanhua, what do you think?"

Lu Jiu'an felt the same and mocked: "Meng Yitai needs to be talented and talented, and he needs to be courageous and courageous. Chen Luo doesn't either. Look at what kind of virtue he has, he can even touch Meng Yitai? He really wants to eat swan meat."

Lu Qi watched the whole process, admiring all the adults in his family, his eyes were full of admiration: "You are so powerful, you are so young. It's easy to tell those two villains not to fight."

Lu Jiu'an came to judge the case for the first time as the county magistrate, and he was very happy: "I just used the spear of the son to attack the shield of the son."

Mu Lin said, "Smash it." Mouthed: "Yes, everyone is happy. Congratulations to County Magistrate Lu Xiao for getting his wish and bringing the beauty home."

Lu Jiu'an said angrily: "Master Mu, Xiao Hou, didn't you know the truth? What does it mean to bring the beauty back? I just don't want to Seeing such a talented and courageous woman wandering alone, men and women are equal. If she has great talents, she can be reused."

Mu Lin glanced at Han Zhi next to him, covered his mouth and yawned lazily: "Well, men and women. "Equality, Magistrate Lu is too naive. However, if you recruit Meng Yitai to the county government, the rumors outside may change from being a beauty to a beauty in a golden house."

Han Zhi. Standing behind Lu Jiuan, his expression was difficult to distinguish.

The process of solving the case was completed in one go. The pancakes he carried in his arms had never had a chance to be taken out and were now cold.

Lu Jiu'an was right in saying that figs grow big and fragrant, and can easily attract others to covet them.

Lu Jiu'an seemed to be that plump and juicy fig, exuding a refreshing fruity fragrance that made people want to move. If no one is waiting around, he might not notice it one day and ask someone to pick it secretly.

Han Zhi thought, then he was the big dog who guarded the house and the courtyard. He waited beside Lu Jiu'an every day with fear, as if he were guarding his own belongings, and was hostile and repulsive to anyone who came close to Fig.

When there was no one around, Mu Lin walked up to Han Zhi and said, "General Han, you said that Meng Yitai's character is exactly the same as Lu Jiu'an's, which made Lu Jiu'an look at him differently. Appearance, talent, personality, no matter what aspect it comes from. Look, are they right in everything?"

The veins on Han Zhi's arms popped out, which were hidden from view by his clothes. Han Zhi tightened his mouth and turned around with a long stride.

He didn't want to think about it or see it.

Just seeing Lu Jiu'an getting a little closer to someone else, and thinking that Lu Jiu'an would get married to someone else sooner or later, I felt a bloodthirsty impulse.

This was wrong. He kept suppressing himself, as if there was a ferocious beast living in his chest that was about to be trapped.

He only hoped that Yang Gengqing, who had returned to the border with his secret order to dispatch troops and generals, could hurry up and summon the twelve snowy knights over as soon as possible. His spear was thirsty for blood.

As long as he kills the enemy, he should no longer have the mind to think about the things that tortured him day and night.

Mu Lin leisurely fell behind Han Zhi. Han Zhi slowly turned his head and narrowed his eyes dangerously, revealing the viciousness deep in the darkness.

Mu Lin was still chattering, and Han Zhi suddenly reached out to him with lightning speed.

Mu Lin was thrown to the ground over her shoulder, her head went blank and she didn't react until there was a faint pain in her buttocks, and she woke up and became furious.

"Damn it, Han Er, you have such a bad temper, why do you want me to be so wild?"

Han Zhi pretended not to hear, and rushed towards Mu Lin with murderous intent. Seeing his bloodshot eyes, Mu Lin didn't dare to look down upon him, and turned over He stood up and blocked Han Zhi's flying kick.

Mu Lin's arm was numb from the kick, and she said harshly: "You're really going to kill me, come on, I'm afraid of you."

The two of them started punching and kicking each other in the backyard. The flowers, plants and trees in the entire backyard were poisoned, and most of their branches were cut off.

Although Mu Lin tried his best, he was still beaten to the point where he was unable to fight back. After a while, he began to retreat step by step, screaming in pain: "Don't hit you Han Er, beat me to death and cripple me." , let me see how you explain it to my grandfather."

Han Zhi ignored him and continued to punch hard. After a while, Han Zhi felt relieved physically and mentally and the anger in his heart no longer burned, and then he stopped.

Mu Lin touched the wound at the corner of his mouth and cursed: "Like a mad dog."

It rained today, and there was fine snow in the rain, which melted before it fell to the ground. The weather is getting colder and colder, the cold seems to penetrate deep into the bones, and even holding a heater makes people shiver from the cold.

The study room was filled with warmth. There were two stoves placed in the corner, and the flames were crackling.

Lu Jiu'an saw the wound at the corner of Mu Lin's mouth and gloated: "General Han, let me just say, if you are so mouthy, you will be punished by General Han sooner or later."

Mu Lin gritted his teeth and looked around carefully with a bronze mirror. Applying medicine on the wound: "At least he has some conscience and knows to leave medicine for me."

The door knocked, but it was Meng Yitai standing at the door of the study. Next to her, she followed Zhan Weizhu step by step. She saw that not only Lu Jiuan was in the room Alone, he leaned politely by the door.

Lu Jiu'an waved: "The formalities have been completed. I have something to ask you. Come in."

Upon hearing this, Mu Lin knew that it was time to kick people out during working hours. He threw the wound medicine and the bronze mirror on the table, holding a He smiled maliciously and evilly: "Am I being punished? Haha, sooner or later it will be your turn, just wait and see."

Meng Yitai registered personnel in the Ministry of Personnel, received a work badge, and became a special talent like Feng Jing and others. He became a formal employee of the county government.

Zhan Weizhu accompanied her to go through the formalities. Although Meng Yitai had already joined the job, he was unwilling to stay overnight in the county government office.

"Master Lu, please forgive me. I'm not worried about my own reputation. I've done my job correctly and I'm not afraid of others chewing on me. I also believe in Master Lu's character." Meng Yitai said.

Lu Jiu'an was curious: "What's the reason? There is a huge area in the county government office specially designated for staff dormitories."

Meng Yitai glanced at Zhan Weizhu next to him: "Mei Zhu and I have shared joys and sorrows for so long, and we have become sworn brothers. , sisters are like each other, I don't want her to live at home alone, I want to be with her."

Zhan Weizhu hooked Meng Yitai's arm happily. Looking at Lu Jiuan's expression at this moment, it seemed that he knew what he was worried about, and said carelessly: "Master Lu, you are afraid that someone will harass Sister Meng again. You don't need to worry, I will protect Sister Meng. I will send her to the county office in the morning and pick her up at night. If any unsighted person comes up to me, I will teach him a lesson with my fists. "

A friend in need is a friend indeed, Meng Yitai. He and Zhan Weizhu are both helpless and lonely people. To be able to meet each other in troubled times and sincerely become confidants, the world is so big that it is impossible to find two or three such fates.

Lu Jiu'an expressed his understanding. He also admired this girl Zhan Weizhu very much. He was amazed by the courage and force she showed that day.

"Zhan Weizhu, although you are a member of the female class, I think you have good skills. Why don't you tell me what talents you have? If possible, there will be an assessment on the 20th every month. You can sign up and give it a try. If If you pass, I will recruit you to the house together, and you two will not have to separate."

Zhan Weizhu was happy, but the next moment he drooped his head and said dullly: "Hey, it won't work, I have seen the technical talent assessment, what's wrong with me. None of them apply. I only know a little bit about the three-legged cat skill, and I can't even handle the riding and shooting skills, let alone other skills."

"Where did you learn this skill?"

Zhan Weizhu's eyes dimmed: "I used to run. He is a juggler who travels all over the country with his master, and is responsible for handling swords and ropes. "

No wonder your hands and feet are so flexible. It turns out that you are a juggler." Lu Jiu'an thoughtfully touched his chin and asked, "You are a girl. You are forced to do this." I really like this kind of life of wielding swords and guns."

Zhan Weizhu blurted out without thinking: "I like it, but it's a pity that after the master died, there was no one to teach me."

Lu Jiu'an encouraged: "Technical talents are not good, otherwise. Come to our county government office to apply for the second class of yamen servants. When the second class of yamen servants was established, I was thinking about recruiting people later."

Zhan Weizhu's eyes widened and he murmured: "Second class of yamen servants?"

"Yes. The first class of Yamen is responsible for the things you know about in daily life, such as arresting people and requisitioning food. The second class of Yamen is newly established. They are trained as soldiers of the people and are responsible for rescue. Therefore, they rarely practice on weekdays. The instructor in charge of the training now is Zhenyuan. General."

Zhan Weizhu looked excited and exclaimed: "General Zhenyuan? Why is General Zhenyuan in Yingping County? If I train with him, I will make great achievements."

This girl is very courageous. She actually wants to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. Lu Jiu'an couldn't help but laugh: "I don't know if I can follow General Han Zhi. Maybe you will be favored by him during the training. Then you will show your bravery. "Promoted from an unknown soldier to a general, on an equal footing with General Han."

The scene described by Lu Jiu'an is what Zhan Weizhu dreams about every day. She has not liked red clothes since she was a child, and she likes to be armed, so it is enough for her to follow her master.

Ever since she heard the story of General Zhenyuan from the storyteller, she had more bold ideas. She often dreamed back in the middle of the night that she took command and sent troops to fight on the battlefield. After waking up, she couldn't calm down for a long time.

Zhan Weizhu was easily aroused by Lu Jiu'an, but his face changed several times, and he looked disappointed: "It's a pity that I am a girl. I can only imagine how a woman can go to the battlefield."

Lu Jiu'an wondered . : "Why can't we go to the battlefield?"

Zhan Weizhu and Meng Yitai were both startled. Lu Jiu'an smiled slightly and told them the story of the female generals of the Yang family, from the successive deaths of the Yang family's sons in battle to the approval of the Yang family's girls. In command: "Their family is full of loyal and loyal people. Mu Guiying changed out of her red clothes and put on battle armor. Even the old lady in the mansion was loyal and courageous. She lost her crutch and mounted her war horse again."

The story of the female generals of the Yang family is not popular in modern times. Who knows how many TV series have been remade, but who wouldn't like the story of a heroine?

Zhan Weizhu, a tomboy who spends all day among men, the only story she heard was the storyteller's story about General Zhenyuan slaughtering the barbarians in anger. Now when the story about the hero among girls comes out, it directly makes her blood boil and full of ambition.

"Master Lu, I'm signing up. I'm here to sign up for the second class of Yamen. I will definitely train hard and be as good as my son. I will become even more powerful and protect Sister Meng and the people of Da Zhou."

Since Zhan Weizhu wants to sign up as a Yamen, Naturally, they had to live in the county government office. She and Meng Yitai went home that day, packed up their gifts, and moved together next door to Taoist Master Feng Jing.

Han Zhi was suffering every day, and for the first time he had the experience of falling in love with someone, letting joy and bitterness take turns in him, and he tasted all the tastes he had never experienced before.

Fortunately, Yang Gengqing did not keep him waiting for too long. On an ordinary morning, everyone was still sleeping, the yamen on duty were sleepy-eyed, and the earth suddenly trembled slightly.

The yamen servant was so frightened that he fell asleep completely. His whole body tensed up and he shouted at the top of his voice: "The earthquake is coming! The earthquake is coming!"

After running for two or three steps, he suddenly woke up. It seemed that it was not an earthquake, but an earthquake. The movement should be shaking from side to side, but it doesn't feel like this.

The dust on the ground slowly rose up with the vibration, and in the mist, the sound of horses neighing could be heard.

The officer's eyes widened, and he turned around to look into the white mist. The mist seemed to be bitten by something, and suddenly slowly dispersed from the middle.

A group of majestic cavalry loomed, with one person at the head carrying a battle flag, and the flag was fluttering in the wind. Wearing silver-gray armor, carrying a tax-profit spear, and looking solemn, they appeared quietly in Yingping like divine soldiers descended from heaven.

As the war horses approached quickly, the officer slowly saw clearly the large red characters on the Lie Lie banner.

Snow embrace.

The officer was breathing heavily.

Snow hugger?

Snow embraces twelve riders!

General Han's twelve snow-clad cavalry have arrived to answer the call!

Chapter 057

General Han's Snowy Twelve Riders arrived at Yingping, and the news immediately spread like wind throughout the streets and alleys.

Although many ordinary people do not know much about battlefield military affairs, it does not mean that they are not interested. They spread word of mouth that General Han is a descendant of Wu Quxing who came to the Great Zhou specifically to guard the rivers and lakes of the Great Zhou and protect the peace of the Great Zhou.

At the end, the message was so miraculous that the general was said to be the true king of heaven who commanded hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers.

The common people put down their work and rushed to the streets to watch this scene that had never been seen in a hundred years. In their generation, He Qing Hai Yan and the world were peaceful. Except for the remote places in the pass, there were few wars, so they could witness the majestic movements of the soldiers. Opportunities are few and far between.

Lu Jiuan is no exception.

Since receiving the report from the government officials, he was extremely excited early in the morning and stopped practicing. He raised his arms and shouted: "We are all here, set out to greet our heroes from the frontier with the highest courtesy."

The government officials responded in unison. , tidied themselves up and lined up.

If the Yamen and the Twelve Horsemen are compared together, it is like the difference between a loach and a dragon. Now that the younger brother is about to meet the elder brother, he will naturally be both respectful and excited.

What's more, they were trained by General Han for a period of time according to Lu Jiu'an's training method. While they yearned for the Twelve Snow Riders, they couldn't help but feel a bit of comparison.

I don't know how big the difference is between their Yamen servants and the twelve knights. Is it because there is a gap of clouds and mud that cannot be crossed, or can they catch up with a little effort?

With the best mental outlook and the most upright and outstanding posture, they lined up in a square formation and followed Lu Jiu'an uniformly.

Han Zhi took the lead and stood at the gate of the county government office. His body was as tall as a rock and there was no trace of happiness or anger on his face.

After a while, Lu Jiuan heard a different commotion coming from the street corner.

When he arrived, Lu Jiuan looked solemn.

A team of tall horses appeared in front of Lu Jiu'an. The twelve warriors riding in the snow were riding fast and roaring outside the city. After entering the county seat, they put away the battle flag and slowed down. At this moment, they were strolling around as if they had won the battle. The horse came slowly from the street corner.

They moved slowly and unhurriedly, but they carried a tax-profit aura that could not be ignored, like a sharp sword that had not yet been sheathed.

There are only a few dozen people in the war horse team, but they feel like thousands of troops.

The twelve snow-covered knights walked up to Han Zhi. Everyone dismounted neatly, clasped their fists in salute, and their voices penetrated the dome: "See you, general."

This is General Han Zhi's feared elite team, and all the soldiers in other armies are Winning with numbers relies on marching troops and setting up formations, but everyone here can outnumber ten and play a role in turning the tide with their own efforts.

Lu Jiuan's eyes lit up. Isn't this a modern special operations force?

The living special forces are truly extraordinary.

Only two of the Snowy Twelve Cavalry were mobilized. Yang Gengqing, as a general under Han Zhi, was in the front row as the commander of one of the cavalry.

He led a sharp and handsome war horse forward. The horse was all white, with a shiny mane and a tall head. Even if Lu Jiuan didn't know horses, he knew that this was a rare BMW horse.

There was no one on the horse, only a piece of shiny silver armor and a long spear with a red tassel.

Yang Gengqing took off the armor from the horse and held it up respectfully with both hands: "General, both the Xiaoxiao and Zhanjia are great."

Han Zhi reached out to take it with one hand, and the armor plates collided with each other, making a dull sound. The sound of clattering.

Xixiao walked up to her master with four hooves, snorted excitedly, and rubbed her head against Han Zhi's body affectionately. Han Zhi showed a rare gentle smile.

The government officials formed two rows on both sides of the sub-station to introduce elite people from afar into the government office.

Yang Gengqing used to train with him in the county government office as the second class of the government officials, and the government officials became very familiar with him in private.

At this moment, he was wearing armor and holding a spear in his hand, which was completely different from his usual taciturn appearance. The government officials looked at him with curiosity and admiration, and kept asking him all kinds of questions.

"This heroic soldier, you have worked hard on the road."

"Brother, your muscles are so strong. How did you develop them? Can you teach me."

The government officials used their warm hospitality to receive this group of cold and serious soldiers. They were picking up local specialties and telling interesting stories about Ying Ping. After a while, Lu Jiuan's future disciple soldiers actually got together with Han Zhi's group of special forces.

The arrival of the Snowy Twelve Cavalry caused an uproar in the entire county government. The government officials opened their hearts. Before they had time to communicate with them in depth, they were told that they would only have lunch and not stop, and that they would set off to the mountains to suppress the bandits that day.

Lu Jiu'an was shocked and walked a few steps quickly to come to Han Zhi: "In such a hurry? The suppression of bandits is not at this moment. The soldiers have traveled such a long way, why not stay at home for a few days to recharge and rest, I will go again Ask your family to save some dry food for you."

Han Zhi lowered his eyes and remained silent.

How did he explain his inner suffering to Lu Jiuan? Are you saying that you are in such a hurry to set off, do you just want to stay away from him and use blood and fighting to contain the anger and desire that can't be suppressed?

No, Jiu An will be scared if he is so honest.

Han Zhi took the armor and entered the house. Lu Jiuan was helpless. As a general, Han Zhi's decision would affect his whole body. Now that he has made up his mind, he cannot allow others to comment easily.

The twelve knights in the snow had only stayed for less than a few hours, and their buttocks were not even warm. Now they mounted their horses again and were ready to go. They were very disciplined and could set off as long as the general came out.

When Han Zhi changed into a uniform and opened the door, Lu Jiuan's eyes widened at first glance.

Han Zhiben was born tall and handsome, with a figure as tall as a pine tree and a cypress. When I watched him training his yamen servants, his eyes were always as bright as cold stars under his sword-shaped brows.

At this moment, he was wearing armor and a helmet, holding a red tasseled spear in his hand. His whole body was glowing like hard metal. He was really majestic and majestic, like a swimming dragon suddenly emerging from the water. Revealing his true face of being devastated from heaven to earth.

No matter who sees Han Zhi like this, he will sigh that the word "general" is tailor-made for General Han.

Lu Jiuan laughed inwardly at an inappropriate moment: "The group of female colleagues in the office watch the video and scream about the uniform temptation from time to time. They are really discerning. The uniform temptation really comes with its own beauty filter. I didn't know that General Han was wearing a police uniform. What kind of clothes are he wearing? He should be very handsome, but it's a pity that he doesn't have a wife. Gee, I don't know how many women should be heartbroken by this."

Lu Jiu'an walked Han Zhi to the door and couldn't help but worry: "Although. The twelve knights of the Snow Embracer have extraordinary fighting power, but you are fighting with a small number this time. Brother Han must be careful."

Han Zhi climbed onto the tall horse, and his face when he turned around was mostly hidden in the pale sunlight, and he could not see clearly. , his tone was flat: "Go back, just wait for the good news."

The Twelve Snow Riders came and went in a hurry, and soon the smoke and dust billowed, and Lu Jiuan couldn't help but sigh melancholy: "Although Brother Han is here to help suppress the bandits. , but they are about to leave after the bandits are suppressed, so they are reluctant to leave."

The chief instructor left, but the training of the Yamen servants could not stop, so Jiang Yu took over again. He admired Han Zhi very much, and during this period, he learned from the general. He learned a lot of skills, and the methods he used to train government officials vaguely bear the shadow of Han Zhi.

Not only the training of yamen servants, but also the establishment of the second class of yamen servants that I told Zhan Weizhu in the study before. Since it is a rescue team, the age, physical condition and moral character of the candidates must be fully considered.

They are usually responsible for helping the people, such as putting out fires, rescuing people, and conducting emergency rescue and disaster relief. They are just like modern firefighters. These are very hard and dangerous things, and one must have a certain amount of awareness to be able to do them.

Therefore, when recruiting people, Lu Jiuan attached the job description and remuneration to the recruitment information one by one. Those who signed up were required to not only undergo a preliminary physical examination, but also a written test.

The physical examination was of course carried out by two doctors from Qin Zhao and Qin Ji. They tested the applicants for basic diseases, infectious diseases, etc. The written examination was assessed by the Ministry of Personnel as examiners.

However, Lu Jiu'an did not think carefully about this matter. He only regarded this group of people as a modern recruitment plan to implement arrangements. He never thought that they could not read a single word and could not even read the content of the test. How could they answer the questions? Eventually it was switched to a one-to-one interview method.

Sure enough, basic education also needs to be improved.

Lu Jiuan sighed in annoyance.

In the face of Yuan Tong's vow to change the current situation in Yingping and change the situation from illiterate people to a situation where everyone can read, now that I think about it, it is really a long way to go.

While sitting down for dinner, Lu Jiuan asked A Duo and Yang Miaomiao next to him: "Do you want to learn how to read and write?"

A Duo replied without thinking: "Yes, then I can read the military dog ​​training manual by myself. Yang Miaomiao nodded reservedly: "

Grandpa said that even if you don't take the top prize, you still need to be able to read and write, so that you can be sensible."

Lu Jiu'an smiled and praised: "Well, grandpa is right, then I will follow you tomorrow." How about big sister learning to read?"

The person Lu Jiuan was talking about was naturally Meng Yitai. Meng Yitai was invited to be a teacher, just like the teacher of the county government, except that the teacher taught students. , she only serves as the first teacher for A Duo and Yang Miaomiao.

Since ancient times, enlightenment teachers have been particular about teaching, and teachers must be correct.

The so-called enlightenment is to cultivate righteousness through enlightenment, which requires not only literacy, but also some moral education and habit cultivation during the teaching process.

The influence of the enlightenment teacher on a person is very great. You must know that a little success is like nature, and habits become natural. The elementary education teachers found by some powerful clans have either been screened through many layers, or they are familiar people. In short, they are very important.

So after hearing Lu Jiu'an's words, Meng Yitai felt guilty: "Master Lu, I can still serve as a violinist, but it is very inappropriate to respect him as a teacher. Besides, since ancient times, no woman has served as a master."

The thoughts in Magistrate Lu's mind are truly shocking. First, Zhan Weizhu joined the government service, and then she was appointed as his wife. What kind of place taught Magistrate Lu such a unique character?

Lu Jiu'an smiled brightly and said: "You are a capable person. You have learned a lot. You are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. It is my profit to find you as a teacher. You can not only teach literacy, but also cultivate their artistic sentiments." "

Lu Jiu settled for a moment and took out a piece of paper from his desk that was full of words and was about 3 inches wide and 4 inches long: "Besides, I also have to conduct an assessment on you. Only those who pass the assessment can be hired. Please read this test paper first. Take a look and give it to me when you're done."

Meng Yitai took it in her hand and glanced at it. In addition to the excerpts from the Four Books and Five Classics that tested her intelligence and ability, there were also some strange questions.

For example:

You go to the market to buy goods, and the store gives you the wrong change and gives you 500 Wen instead of 400 Wen. What would you do if you encounter this situation?

You have two new friends. One likes to praise you and the other likes to point out your shortcomings. What do you think of these two friends? How will you handle your relationship with them?

If you, as a teacher, suppose that your students are arguing about a certain issue, and the public is right and the other party is right, how will you deal with it?

You have a student. If he studies ancient times diligently on weekdays, but suddenly becomes absent-minded from one day, and his academic performance plummets, how would you deal with such teaching incidents?

There are a total of twenty similar test questions, and there are many different ones.

Meng Yitai looked at these two so-called test papers, licked his pen but didn't know how to answer.

Lu Jiuan smiled tolerantly: "Just answer according to your true inner thoughts. The scores are marked at the end of the test questions. The total is 100 points, and 60 points are passing."

Answer, answer slowly, this is another cut of his flesh. I spent some points to extract some civil service examination questions from the computer.

This part of the content is in the folder of the imperial examination. Lu Jiuan just prepared this information before time travel. The content in that issue talks about the evolution of national talent selection from ancient times to the present, and it just extracts some relevant information about the selection of modern civil servants. The content was used by him.

Chapter 058

The topic chosen by Lu Jiu'an involves the assessment of integrity, love, teaching methods, and handling of teaching emergencies. The content is extensive. In order not to disturb the purity, Lu Jiu'an went outside and caught Qin Jizhi drinking tea and reading.

Qin Jizhi's slender fingers traced across the pages of the book, and Qin Jizhi couldn't help but be fascinated. He felt that the person opposite him was flawless, and even his pink and tender fingers were beautiful, like a piece of pure gold that had not been discovered.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Qin Jizhi came back to his senses. There was no trace of embarrassment on his face, and he said calmly: "I have something unclear."

"But it doesn't matter."

Qin Jizhi started to write. The text test paper: "Why did Jiu'an ask the question like this?"

As if he was waiting for this question, Lu Jiu'an raised his eyebrows, put down his legs, stretched out three fingers forward: "I recruit a master for three reasons."

"Even if he is knowledgeable . , Those who are old-fashioned will not be accepted; those with bad conduct will not be accepted; those who lack love and patience will not be accepted. Because it is basic education, culture is secondary, and teacher ethics is the most important."

Qin Jizhi smiled lightly.

Look, this is Lu Jiu'an. Even the person who chooses to be a teacher is completely different from others.

Meng Yitai answered intermittently for nearly an afternoon before handing the test paper to Lu Jiu'an. The woman clasped her hands and waited beside him with some anxiety: "If you don't answer well, please don't laugh at me."

Lu Jiu'an didn't know what to do . I picked up a book of miscellany somewhere and said: "It's very interesting. You have to look at it first and wait for me for a while."

You can hear the needle drop in my hometown.

From being careless at the beginning, Lu Jiu'an gradually became serious.

The answer written by Meng Yitai made him very satisfied. No, more than satisfied, Meng Yitai, a woman from Zhangtai, could actually have such insight and talent.

Just like this question: Two students have different views on the same issue, and each has his own opinion. As a teacher, how should we deal with this kind of thing?

Meng Yitai's answer is: Gentlemen are harmonious but different; villains are harmonious but not harmonious. We should seek common ground while reserving differences. Some questions don't have to have only one answer, and some conflicts aren't black and white.

This is exactly what Lu Jiuan wants!

If a teacher can view both sides of things dialectically, he can not only guide students' systematic logical thinking, but also encourage children's innovation.

After reading the test paper, Lu Jiuan felt that he had really picked up a treasure. Meng Yitai finally scored a high score of 80 points and was arranged to arrange a daily class schedule with Lu Qi. She would teach Chinese, calligraphy and painting, and Lu Jiu'an would teach Chinese and calligraphy. Start teaching mathematics.

In this way, a simple and basic preschool class was established.

At the beginning, Lu Jiu'an had to wander into the classroom to see the results of the two teachers' lessons. He was completely relieved when he saw the gentleness and patience of the teachers as they talked and the concentration of the students on their studies.

One day, after finishing the literacy course, Aduo did not leave alone, but followed Meng Yitai to find the study room.

Lu Jiuan is reading a book in my hometown.

During these days, he was so busy that he was busy with money, grain, payment, settlement of prison cases and other civil affairs. The people below didn't know whether he was undecided or lazy and lazy. No matter how big or small, they had to ask Lu Jiu'an. , which made him feel a lot of anger. He finally took some time, turned around and threw himself into the sea of ​​books.

His study room is already full of books. Some books have incomplete corners and yellowed pages with blurred writing. I don't know where I found them. They are all placed on the row of bookshelves at the back, crowded.

Lu Jiuan discovered something interesting.

The development of this world was very similar to the history of China, and some masterpieces and celebrities partially overlapped with his time. This made him have to suspect that the Great Zhou he was in now and the Earth he was in before were two parallel worlds.

He was immersed in a sea of ​​books and didn't notice until A Duo and Meng Yitai had already arrived at the desk. Lu Jiu'an was still satisfied with what he saw. He put down the book, pressed it next to a notebook, and pointed to the chair in front of the desk for the two of them to sit down.

"Teacher and students are here together. Are there any changes in teaching?"

Aduo sat down, raised his little head and looked around in the study, and his eyes gradually stopped on Lu Jiu'an's hand.

The fingertips of his right hand held a black cylinder. The cylinder was made of an unknown metal. Its surface was polished as smooth as jade and exuded a dazzling luster under the sunlight.

What really attracted him was not the exquisite workmanship, but Lu Jiuan's dazzling performance.

The magistrate's fingers were like a magnet, and the cylinder was firmly attached to it, flipping flexibly between his fingers. Whenever he thought it would fall, the cylinder would be fixed at an incredible angle.

Ado was almost stunned until he was interrupted by a chuckle.

"Isn't it cool?"

"Huh?" Ado opened his mouth, looking stupid.

Lu Jiu'an showed a wicked smile and tapped his forehead with the pen: "I will teach you how to spin the pen later. Tell me, could it be that he fell asleep in class and was caught by Master Meng?"

The little leather monkey was tanned. After the maintenance of autumn and winter, the skin has slowly faded. He grinned, revealing two rows of black and white teeth, and said dissatisfied: "No, sir, don't think of A Duo so badly. The sage said: Gentleman Don't hide people's beauty, don't talk about people's evil, and Aduo didn't sleep in class. This is not what a gentleman did."

Lu Jiu'an laughed and said, "That's right. After studying for two weeks, you can already master it.

A Duo breathed out from his nose: "A Duo has other things to do with you. Wu Gu has already completed basic training. He will be able to go out on patrol with the government officials in less than a month." "

Really?" Lu Jiu'an was overjoyed. Thinking of the two dogs Yang Miaomiao brought with him: "Where are Miaomiao's dogs? The three dogs were trained together. What was the result?"

Aduo shook his head: "The booklet said that not all dogs are suitable to be police dogs. , I also discovered during training that Miao Miao's dogs are not as smart as grains. Sir, can I choose the next dog?"

"Are we still choosing dogs?" Lu Jiu'an was a little disappointed. As a layman, he This is the first time I heard: "Sure, you can choose by yourself. I will take you to the dog market another day. But do you know how to choose a breed?"

Ado said: "The training manual given by adults is very useful. It has detailed test methods. It can test the puppies' potential and aptitude for police work, and also describes the breeding methods. It is the first time I know that there are so many details in raising dogs..."

When talking about dogs, Aduo couldn't stop talking, Lu Jiu An recalled that when he first met him, he had a perverse personality. He usually didn't talk much, and he stood up with thorns all over his body when facing the people around him, like a bitch protecting his food. Now, after these two weeks of enlightenment, it seems that he has changed as a person, from a wild child who doesn't understand anything, to a well-educated young man.

Lu Jiuan covered his head with the palm of his hand: "Ah Duo is so good, he has helped you a lot. Is the military dog ​​training manual written in such detail? If other people are not as talented in dog training as you, just read the manual If so, can it be successfully tamed?"

Aduo pondered for a moment: "It will be no problem if you try a few more times."

"That's great." Brother Han is interested in dog training, even if he doesn't have time to arrange for people to watch. You can also copy the manual to him and take it back to the frontier for personal use.

After Aduo left, Meng Yitai expressed her intention to come. She was originally here to report on the progress of her teaching.

"Miao Miao understands the Three-Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, and Thousand-Character Classic by heart, and can quickly learn to write. If adults hadn't told me that he was a beginner, I would have thought that he had learned it before. , He is a rare and good scholar."

Meng Yitai did not hesitate to praise him both inside and outside his words.

Lu Jiu'an was shocked: "What kind of bad luck did I have? Our Yingping County won't produce a little prodigy."

Meng Yitai pretended to be puzzled: "Isn't there already a prodigy in Yingping? "

Lu Jiu'an held the tea cup and thought for a moment, then raised his head blankly: "Ying Ping still has such talents, how could I not know?"

Meng Yitai said: "I heard that Mr. Lu started to be exposed to Cheng Zhu Neo-Confucianism when he was a child, and he won a small prize at the age of 14. "Jie Yuan, you won the Hui Yuan again at the age of 18. If His Majesty hadn't seen you as weak and worried about your arrogance, you might as well have been a prodigy in Da Zhou."

...

Lu Jiu'an said awkwardly . Twitching the corner of his mouth.

This is correct. He originally grew up in the Langdong area, and he is indeed a very talented and outstanding person. It's a pity that Tian is jealous of Yingcai and he takes over his future life. If he hadn't taken advantage of her halfway, there's no telling what kind of wonderful life she would have created.

Lu Jiu'an had no choice but to bring up the topic with a few perfunctory sentences, and then asked: "Where's A Duo?"

Meng Yitai considered his words: "A Duo's words are a little less satisfactory, but the key is perseverance. Sir, I was listening just now. Some, asking A Duo to train dogs will take up too much of his time. Maybe if he takes some time to study, he might make a lot of progress. "

"No, I asked A Duo, but that's not his ambition." Jiu An said, "Perhaps in the eyes of others he is not doing his job properly, but to me, a ruler is short and an inch is long. After learning, he can simply read and write. Not everyone is suitable to be the number one scholar. ."

Meng Yitai said nothing, lowering his eyes thoughtfully.

"By the way." Lu Jiu'an slowly put down the tea cup, leaned forward and took out a stack of paper from the drawer: "Mr. Meng, in the future there may be more than just these two students. After each semester exam, I plan to open such a At the parent-teacher conference, you will not only have to face students, but also countless parents. Will you be afraid? "

Meng Yitai has been able to face the unfamiliar words and weird ideas that Lu Jiu'an pops up from time to time. She didn't change her expression, but when she took a quick look at the plan, she suddenly looked up and said in disbelief: "Master Lu, you want to set up an official school?"

"It will only happen sooner or later when the people become rich." At this point, Lu Jiu An smiled maliciously, "At least when the people have a quarrel, one or two other words can come up. Isn't it better than the repeated curse words?"

"..." Meng Yitai didn't know how to answer it. Just listen to him quietly.

Lu Jiu'an continued: "I plan to hire you as an art teacher in the future, and maybe also as a class teacher. You need to adapt to the identity of a wife first. Practice makes perfect. Only when you face more students will you be able to do it with ease." Director

Meng Yi said . In one breath, she didn't expect Lu Jiu'an to have such a long-term plan. Ying Ping was still thinking about running a school.

"I have been a prostitute in the Qing Dynasty for more than ten years, and I have met countless people with great talents and strategies. These people talk about their ambitions, but only a few can put them into practice. It's just for Bo Jiaren's smile, that's all. It's hard to tell the truth from the truth."

But Lu Jiu'an just said it casually, and Meng Yitai somehow believed that he could do it.

However, what she didn't know was that Lu Jiu'an not only wanted to set up a government school, but also planned to open a vocational and technical college regardless of the background, gender, and age of the students.

Different from the future vocational and technical colleges, at that time, vocational and technical schools It has ceased to exist in name only and has become a "waste dump" that accepts those so-called "poor students" who have been screened and have no other way out.

Lu Jiu'an didn't want this. This was contrary to the original intention of opening the school.

In fact, if it were not for the employment environment and occupational discrimination, the vocational and technical college should be a good place to learn life skills and real skills. He should pay attention and never make the same mistake in this matter.

This lecture was about sunset. Lu Jiuan looked up at the sky outside and asked Meng Yitai to go back. Lu Qi came in and helped him fill a pot of freshly boiled tea and clean up his desk. Lu Jiuan lazily held up his hands and asked, "Are you tired from the lecture?"

Lu Qi replied, "It's okay." As soon as the words left his mouth, his voice rose. All are mute.

Lu Jiuan cradled Lu Qi's head: "You kid, don't I know whether teaching is hard or not? Do you want to tell the truth to the adults?"

Lu Qi wiped the sweat from his forehead. He grinned, revealing two inconspicuous little tiger teeth: "It's not hard, Lu Qi is very happy."

"Does Lu Qi like lectures? Sir, you must listen to the truth."

Lu Qi paused: "I can't say that I like it, I just think that I can You will be happier if you put a little effort around me."

Lu Jiu'an looked at him seriously. Lu Qi smiled so hard that his eyes were slit, and he looked really satisfied. Lu Jiu'an was silent for a while and said, "I'll ask Doctor Qin to give it to you later. Make a throat pill and hold it in your throat to make it more comfortable."

"Okay!" Lu Qi responded quickly. He quickly cleaned up the messy study room and walked out of the room together. Suddenly he asked: "Sir, I saw a question mark on the planning book. Is the matter still unresolved?"

"Well, it's a bit complicated." Lu Jiu'an touched his chin and nodded, "I thought about it all by myself. After a few days, I still haven't figured out some things.

"Then why don't you ask others and brainstorm, maybe you can get some useful clues."

Lu Jiu'an thought about it, and it made some sense. It would be better to be helpless alone. Recruit widely.

So next, he questioned everyone in the county government. Lu Jiu'an didn't say anything about his purpose, he just asked questions casually, and it didn't take more than a day. He was asked to collect more than ten pieces of paper full of opinions,

and he put them into files in categories for future reference.

Aduo walked around the dog market a few times and selected 7 chubby puppies according to the manual. When he came in through the side door, he was looked at by the government officials.

The little chubby dog ​​had a bumpy walk, and even the clumsier one would fall when he crossed the threshold. His limbs were tumbling and howling, Zhao Laosan strode forward, stretched out his hand and carefully straightened the dog up.

Aduo glanced at him sideways: "Don't touch."

"I won't touch." Zhao Laosan raised his hands, and another officer grabbed Zhao Laosan by his collar and pulled him behind him, and said with an apologetic smile, "Zhao Laosan He was indeed a bastard who bullied A Duo before. We don't need to pay attention to him. A Duo, is this the police dog of our brothers in the future?"

A Duo snorted and ignored him.

The yamen servant didn't know how to see the answer from A Duo's dark eyes, and he suddenly smiled. He lifted up his clothes and knelt down, took the snarling puppy into his arms, and kissed him on the head like an old father with his newborn son.

Lu Jiu'an covered his eyes and couldn't watch anymore. He summoned Zhao Laosan and said to him: "You got first place in the assessment before, and you promised to claim a police dog. You can choose one now."

Zhao Laosan He glanced at A Duo, moved his lips a few times, and asked in a low voice: "You want to choose now, sir? You are so young, why don't you give it to little brother A Duo to raise first?"

Although this bastard looks cute and cute, but After all, it was not quite the same majesty as he wanted. If it were left to him like this now, it would be better for him to raise one at home.

Lu Jiu'an kicked him and said amusedly: "What are you thinking about? I let you choose, but I don't ask you to take it away now. You choose one, and while Ado is training, you have to develop a relationship with the puppy. A Duo said, in the future you have to take him out to meet strangers to let him adapt to the surrounding environment, so as not to get stressed when facing strangers." Lu Jiu'an turned to look at A Duo with a smile, "Am I right? , A Duo."

A Duo nodded obediently.

Zhao Laosan jumped for joy, and he cupped his hands towards the envious government officials who had red eyes: "Brothers, I'd rather be respectful than obey your orders."

"Bah." The government servant who had earlier grabbed him by the collar spat at him, roughly. He cursed harshly, "What kind of bullshit brother, you're so good after getting an advantage."

Zhao Laosan was gearing up. He had just squatted down to choose his future partner when a dog ran up to him and stuck out his tongue to lick him. Licking his hand.

Zhao Laosan looked at the dark little cub in front of him. There were two tufts of white hair above his eyes. It looked like he had four eyes. He felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if this was his fate. Destined like a police dog.

Zhao Laosan reached out and picked it up: "It's yours, Si Yanzi. Since you took the initiative to choose me, I don't have to go through all the trouble to choose."

So fast? Lu Jiu'an asked: "Decided? Then you can choose a name. It will spend the rest of its life accompanying you. Treat it well." "

Of course." Zhao Laosan replied cheerfully, lowering his head. After thinking about it: "Fifteen, it's called Fifteen."

The fifteenth day of the lunar month was a very meaningful day for him. On that day, he was taken to the hall by Magistrate Lu and gave him a lesson. Since then, he has corrected his evil ways and broken out of his cocoon. Reborn.

Jiang Fang became the second yamen official to adopt a puppy. Because of his outstanding performance in the days of talent selection and registration, he easily took first place and became the second team leader.

The remaining five pups were given to Captain Jiang and the four leaders respectively.

Some were happy and some were sad. The remaining government servants gritted their teeth as they watched the seven pups fall away from each house. They secretly vowed to work harder in the following training to catch them to death!

Chapter 059

As time goes by, the civil engineering work is coming to an end, and the remaining shops are being built one after another. As early as a week before the completion, the craftsman from the Ministry of Engineering came to Lu Jiu'an to prepare for the celebration and acceptance in advance.

The real owners of several shops had sent their clerks to keep an eye on the scene, and got the news earlier than Lu Jiuan.

The house cannot be put into use immediately because it must first be used as a storage house for the refugees to survive the cold winter.

The three families came to the county government office the day before and invited the top winner of the shop bid to participate in the ribbon-cutting the next day.

Cutting the ribbon? Did you show up for the ribbon-cutting so early in the big week? He only thought that the opening ceremony would only be held, and never thought that it would also be held after the completion of the new building. Lu Jiuan asked excitedly: "Do you want to hold it jointly?"

Xie Suiqian said: "The four of us decided on the same day. Now that it's repaired, if we hold it together, it can be regarded as a big event in Yingping. It should be more lively." Lu Jiu'an nodded, and Xie Suiqian couldn't help but test: "I wonder if the biggest winner of the bid tomorrow

is interested in coming."

Jiu An slowly put down the tea cup in his hand and gave him a meaningful look. Xie Sui Qian's heart suddenly suddenly suddenly thought that the little fox had noticed the calculation in his heart.

Lu Jiu'an gathered the hair that was scattered on his chest and pretended not to understand what he meant: "He is too busy to go."

"We will deal with it, we don't need his help, as long as he goes through the motions." However, It was Ding Helou who couldn't help but said anxiously.

Lu Jiu'an took out Han Zhi's house deed from his chest and waved it in front of the three of them: "Here I am, Brother Han has entrusted me with full authority to handle the store affairs, I just go."

Xie Suiqian's face was forbearing. Lu Jiu'an couldn't help but look disappointed, which made Lu Jiu'an feel funny.

Since General Han's identity was exposed, there has been an endless stream of people wanting to talk to him under various pretexts, both covertly and covertly.

However, Han Zhi usually kept his words and was impatient to deal with these sophistication, so he turned away all the visitors on the grounds of training government servants.

This time Xie Suiqian and others finally caught the opportunity, so naturally they would not let it go.

The other merchants who bid together with Han Zhi regretted it. If they had known that General Han was on the field at that time, they would have won one of them at any cost.

Seeing that Lu Jiu'an was as tight as a clam shell, Xie Sui Qian pressed his lips tightly and said helplessly straight to the point: "We are just using the prestige of General Han to create a wave of momentum. It doesn't matter if he doesn't show up."

Lu Jiu'an said Ba Fengfang pointed at the looming mountains in the distance: "It's a pity that the general is suppressing bandits on the mountain. I am just a small county magistrate, but I can't make the decision for him. Besides, General Han keeps a low profile and keeps his head down. It's better not to make a big show of killing the enemy."

After Lu Jiuan hit a round of Tai Chi, which was neither light nor heavy, the three families could only stop their thoughts and hurried home to overthrow everything they had done before and make new plans. .

Four shops stand in an orderly manner around the living square, with green tiles and red eaves, and red and red couplets carved with regular script. The completion of these four new buildings not only represents a new chapter in Yingping, but will also serve as Yingping's commercial landmark in the future, leaving a strong mark on this small county town.

At the ribbon-cutting ceremony, a full circle of about 500 meters of red ribbon was pulled around the Life Plaza, leaving only a passage for two people to walk through. The four shops only hung a huge silk flower in the middle of the ribbon. group.

To express their gratitude for the New Year's money, Ding Helou and Wu Ji stood in front of the flower group holding a pair of brand-new scissors. Businessmen of all sizes in Yingping came up to say congratulations.

With a click, the scissors neatly cut the ribbon into two pieces, and the crowd cheered loudly.

This unprecedented lively scene in Yingping attracted people from all directions.

In order to get a couple of sweet spots, the people gathered around the Life Plaza surrounded the place where the ribbon was cut with their families. You said something to me and I said happy words. They came back and forth with the words "rich money will come in" and "every day will make more money". .

The men who are the masters of the house welcome all comers and happily accept blessings from those who come. Whenever someone congratulates them, the boy carrying a candied fruit behind him will give one to them.

Xie Suiqian and the others did not forget to advertise themselves: "After the shop is built, we will not use it for the time being. We will first accommodate the people who have not yet settled down from afar. If the shop opens in the future, don't forget to come and patronize it. "

The people took advantage of it and cheered loudly.

The three heads of family moved slowly in the crowd, and were soon submerged in a crowd of black-haired men.

Mu Lin held the cup and found Lu Jiu'an who was hiding in the corner watching the fun: "The county magistrate kept promising that others would attend the ceremony yesterday, but when it came time to cut the ribbon, no one could find it. I was afraid that it would delay the good time, so I had to cut it myself. But it turns out that we are sitting here alone fishing."

Lu Jiu'an chuckled and stuffed a handful of pastries that Lu Qi grabbed into his mouth. This pastry was sweet but not greasy and melted in your mouth. It was from Wu Ji's Dessert Shop. Made: "I said I participated in the ceremony, but I didn't say I participated in the ribbon-cutting. I participated even when I stood in front of people, and I participated even when I was hiding behind people. What can you do to me?"

"I can't do anything to you." Mu Lin poked with the handle of the fan

Lu Jiu'an poked Lu Jiu'an's chest: "It's just that the ribbon cutting this time is to seek good luck for the future opening. Don't take Han Er's house deed and do nothing. By then, other shops will be prosperous and your shop will be deserted." Jiu An looked straight at him, his handsome face even more radiant because of his flamboyant confidence: "You don't need to worry about this, Mr. Mu Xiaohou. The opening ceremony will definitely make your eyes shine."

Qu Qu's marketing plan, for He, who had worked his way up to the position of director, was just a piece of cake.

The lively event slowly dissipated until the afternoon. Xie Suiqian found Lu Jiuan at the end and complained jokingly: "Master Lu is so kind.

" It's a grand party with a special flavor."

These people had been socializing all day and were exhausted. They briefly congratulated each other and left.

As Unitary Hour approached, all the onlookers in the Life Square had left. Lu Jiuan looked at the rubbish left on the ground with an unswerving expression on his face: "Didn't they leave any servants behind to deal with the aftermath?"

Zhao Laosan asked. "Do you need me to ask the servants in the house to clean it up?"

Lu Jiu'an snorted coldly and raised his hand to stop Zhao Laosan from returning.

This group of organizers only held events but didn't know how to deal with the aftermath. They left the place full of messes and didn't even take a look. I really thought that it would become a public place without taking it over, so I became a hands-off shopkeeper with peace of mind.

Poor environmental sanitation not only affects Yingping's city appearance, but also makes people living here prone to illness.

Yingping's natural scenery is so magnificent, and he plans to develop it into a tourist attraction. He cannot let them destroy it. He must develop their good habit of caring for the environment.

So Xie Suiqian and others returned to the house. They had just changed out of their complicated and cumbersome Chinese clothes, and before they had a chance to take a sip of hot tea, they received a fine from the government servant.

The fines force the organizers of the ribbon-cutting to clean up the scene. If the officials fail to meet the standards after checking the hygiene, they will be fined.

Not only that, Lu Jiuan also placed 6 trash cans around the Life Plaza, with slogans saying not to litter anywhere beside them.

He also called on the people in Yingping to supervise each other. If they see someone littering everywhere, they should give friendly advice. If the person does not listen, they can inform the government officials on guard and provide them with moral education.

What kind of moral education is it? According to those who were caught, they never want to experience it again. The officials will neither beat you up nor put you in jail. They will only ask you to copy the quotations of honor and disgrace 10 times. You will not be able to leave until you finish copying.

There are a lot of quotes about honor and disgrace, and many people are illiterate. They have to write them down one stroke at a time. After copying them 10 times, it is more tiring than doing a day's hard work. It is really a kind of physical and mental torture.

After the shops were built, the refugees who used to live in tents moved into buildings. The buildings built by the county government supervisors were made of real materials. Living in them was comfortable and warm, which was much better than living in tents.

Although all these refugees have settled down, they are unable to build their own residences in a short period of time. They can only rely on the houses sponsored by Fujia to survive the cold winter before making any plans.

During this period, the imperial edict from southern Shanxi that Qin Jizhi expected was late.

The eunuch who announced the decree was a kind-looking eunuch. He had no beard on his face and his eyes showed some self-restraint acquired from living in a high position. He walked out of the car with the support of the chamberlain and went straight to Lu Jiu'an.

When he came closer, before Lu Jiu'an could bow and salute, he greeted Lu Jiu'an familiarly: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Lu. His Majesty the Emperor was still talking about young talents like you in front of the Za family a few days ago."

Lu Jiu'an raised his head and glanced at him blankly. Who is this eunuch? I don't know him.

I couldn't help but murmur in my heart: "As expected of a eunuch who grew up in the palace to accompany nobles. He is so good at dancing. No matter whether he knows him or not, he understands the principle of feng shui. As long as he is not an unlucky guy who has been forced to death by fate, he will remain the same. Even an old man like Lu Jiu'an would be impressed by his attitude of keeping things aside so that we can meet each other easily in the future. "

What's more, His Majesty the Emperor is talking about him?" What a liar, if you cherish your talent, you will never let this talented person be sent to a wilderness to lose his life quietly.

He could not identify the other party, so he could only reply politely after careful consideration: "Your Majesty is considerate of your ministers, which is really a blessing to your ministers. The emperor is kind and courteous, and his kindness is widespread. The great Zhou Dynasty will meet in peace and prosperity, and the rain and snow will be in season... "

Lu Jiu'an said all the words of praise he could think of, and he talked a lot. The eunuch who announced the decree had no intention of stopping when he heard his ramblings. He walked closer with a smile and interrupted him in a low voice.

"Oh, Mr. Lu, how come you have been here in Yingping for so long, and you are still just talking about words and phrases. It's really boring. Young people, you should learn from those romantic talents and be more free and easy, don't fall for you Tanhualang Good reputation."

Lu Jiu'an was shocked. The eunuch's attitude seemed to be that he really knew him.

Before Lu Jiu'an could think about it carefully, the eunuch who announced the decree took Lu Jiu'an's hand affectionately and Shi Shiran stepped into the gate of the county government office.

After hearing the news, the house had already prepared fine high-mountain tea and exquisite dishes and small tributes. The rich fragrance of turmeric floated from the tea cups. It was much better than the tea Lu Jiuan gave to Guo Wen. A grade.

The eunuch's hand had already touched the edge of the imperial edict. When he saw this, he took out his hand again, held the tea cup and took a sip: "I am still very satisfied with the tea prepared by Mr. Lu. I am frugal with the box you gave me that day. I still finished the drink."

Lu Jiu'an was surprised again. He said this as if he not only knew each other, but also had a good relationship.

It turned out that the original person was not as deaf to outside world as he thought, and only read the books of sages. He also dealt with all aspects of human relations and sophistication.

Lu Jiu'an wasn't sure what attitude to adopt, so he had to tell Lu Qi: "Since Eunuch Bo likes it, I happen to have two cans in my house, so go take them out and prepare them, so as not to forget them when you leave."

The eunuch who announced the decree raised his orchid finger, He was not polite at all: "Master Lu understands the Zajia family. Those Muyus in southern Shanxi only want to disturb the Holy Emperor with endless articles. From time to time, they will snatch the land with their heads and make their ambitions clear by death. Alas, from our perspective, They just read a sage's book, and once they were clicked, they thought they could influence the holy will. A bunch of buzzing flies disturbed people's ears. It was really annoying."

Lu Jiu'an was speechless, this eunuch. He actually dared to openly criticize the imperial censor in such an arrogant way. He was very courageous. I'm afraid he was in a high position.

The eunuch who announced the decree sighed: "Master Lu came to Yingping, and he is already unfamiliar with our family. He will not call you Eunuch Fu'an, that's all. Let's read out the imperial edict first."

After Fu'an finished speaking, his face straightened, and he lifted it from his arms . The imperial edict was shouted sharply: "Yingping County Magistrate Lu Jiu'an receives the edict."

Lu Jiu'an took a closer look and saw that the edict in his hand was clearly two volumes. He hurriedly lowered his eyebrows and knelt down to receive the edict.

Chapter 060

It seems that the current emperor is really satisfied with Lu Jiu'an's response to the flood and epidemic. The imperial edict was written in a lengthy scroll, and it can be seen from the words that the emperor is a great writer who is good at composing poems and writing beautiful scenes.

Throughout the imperial edict, he used soul-stirring sentences to praise his performance in coming to Yingping. He was so praised that he felt so happy that he didn't know what year it was.

Especially the last two sentences: "I want to abide by the promise of being honest and careful, self-denial and serve the public, and take the lead in treating floods and curing diseases. In fact, I am the humerus of my ministers. I will now reward you with five thousand taels of silver and one thousand pieces of silk. I hope that Lu Qing will be diligent and diligent in government affairs."

Mrs. Boss So proud!

Since Lu Jiu'an came to Yingping, he has been tightening his belt and living a tight life. Today, suddenly, Lu Jiu'an was so happy that he burst into tears.

Lu Jiu'an knelt on the ground, lowered his head and stretched out his arms. His voice trembled slightly: "I accept the decree."

Eunuch Fu'an placed the imperial decree in Lu Jiu'an's hand and touched him lightly with his little finger: "Don't let your majesty's painstaking efforts down. "

Lu Jiu'an quickly expressed his determination: "Thank you for your kindness, I will save you."

The attendants observed the words and saw that the imperial edict was issued and Duke Fu'an was also alert, so he waved to the guard, who immediately put the boxes on the carriage. The reward was moved into the county government office.

The guard moved two or three times, and there were seven or eight boxes, which was more luggage than he had packed when he left home. Lu Jiuan was very happy to see it, but he still remained calm on the surface.

Fu'an leaned down slightly and opened the lid of one of the boxes: "Mr. Lu, let's check it out. The Zajia family has delivered it to you every cent. If I leave this door and you say that I am short of gold or silver, the Zajia family will not recognize it. "

Lu Jiu'an said: "Eunuch Fu'an is joking, you are on duty in the palace, what treasures have you not seen? The things that the Holy Father has given me are very rich and precious, but they are insignificant to you, no way. Look in your eyes."

Lu Jiu'an said so politely, but he kept opening the boxes with his hands.

In an instant, the colorful silk and satin in the box stunned the people in the living room who had never seen the world. Lu Jiuan smiled sheepishly: "Open it to open the eyes of the people in my house. This was sent by Mr. Fu'an himself. Let them enjoy my father-in-law's happiness."

Lu Jiu'an said as he picked out a few pieces of rich-colored silk brocade from the box and stuffed them into Fu'an's hands: "My father-in-law has been traveling all the way for Jiu'an. It's almost the New Year, and my father-in-law is taking the shopping. Order some New Year clothes."

Fu'an threw Fuchen into his arm, pushed it gently with his index finger, and refused with a soft smile on his lips: "What the Holy Father gave to Mr. Lu, naturally Mr. Lu will keep it. The Zajia family will never dare to do so. "Contamination."

Lu Jiu'an said: "Since it is a reward, it is up to me to decide where it will go after it is in the hands of the officials. Although I cannot follow Qingliu and give all the rewards to the soldiers, I will eventually select some from them and give them to the officials. As a reward, Mr. Fu'an will accept it. "

Lu Jiu'an is sincere, and if Fu'an refuses again, it will appear that he is being pretentious, so he can only refuse.

Fu'an took advantage of it and became more easy-going. When he issued the second imperial edict, deep lines appeared in the corners of his eyes: "Where are Qin Zhao, Qin Qin, and Qin Jizhi? Kneel down to receive the edict."

The three of them had already heard this. After hearing Lu Jiu'an's announcement, he was waiting in the second hall. As soon as Fu'an's voice came out, the three of them waved their hats to each other and walked into the lobby respectfully. Qin Jizhi was young and imprudent after all, and his twitching cheeks and red eyes exposed his inner world at a glance.

Qin Zhao sat in a wheelchair and patted his thigh with his hand. Qin Jizhi slowly exhaled and gradually calmed down.

Fu'an had only received the imperial edict, but he didn't know their physical conditions. When he saw them coming out, one was wearing a cane, one was in a wheelchair, and only one had a straight posture, and he couldn't help but feel a little unbearable on his face.

The Qin family was overturned overnight just because of the late emperor's words. Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. It seems that he will have to be more careful in the future.

Qin Zhao leaned forward and struggled to get up. Fu'an said in a soft tone: "Since you two have difficulty moving, just let Qin Ji take over the order on your behalf."

The imperial edict issued to the Qin family said two things. The first thing Qin's disobedience to the late emperor's holy order to practice medical skills was actually forced by the situation, because what he did was to save people and benefit the people, and the emperor will not blame him now.

The second thing was to clear the grievances of the Qin family in the imperial edict. Not only did it pardon the late emperor's oral decree that he could not practice medicine for life, but he also promulgated an appointment document. Following his father's footsteps, Qin Jizhi entered the imperial hospital as an imperial doctor.

The Imperial Physician of the Taiyuan Hospital, a member of the sixth rank, is responsible for taking pulses, diagnosing, treating, prescribing, and recuperating the emperor's concubines and princes.

If Qin Jizhi takes the order, it will truly be regarded as a meteoric rise.

You can take office directly without taking any examinations. From this point of view, the imperial edict issued by His Majesty today is very compensatory.

Lu Jiu'an clenched his fists and felt sincerely happy for Qin Zhao and the others.

Qin Jizhi's body became light, as if he was struggling out of the unfathomable mud. He lay with his limbs relaxed in the jungle among the birds and flowers, staring blankly at the warm sunlight falling from the sky.

Qin Zhao was the first to react and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty for your kindness."

Qin Zhao's voice pulled Qin Jizhi back from the world. He looked around blankly.

Lu Jiu'an hated that iron could not become steel. Qin Jizhi suffered day and night just to ask for this pardon. Why did he become stupid when the imperial edict came?

He quietly reminded: "Ji Zhi, accept the order."

Qin Jizhi paused, but in full view of the crowd, he took a step back: "I'm sorry that you can't accept the order."

Lu Jiu'an was stunned for a moment and looked at Qin with a complicated expression . Ji Zhi, probably guessed his inner thoughts.

Sure enough, after Qin Jizhi refused, he immediately kowtowed and apologized: "The common people are grateful to your majesty, but the common people are unwilling to enter the palace. There are many capable people and strangers in the palace, and it can function freely even without the common people. But Ying Ping, and even the Jiangzhou doctor Withered, they need the grassroots even more."

Qin Zhao stroked his hand and said, "I want to express my compassion and compassion to save the suffering of Han Ling. My son has great ambitions, and I, as a father, can hide it."

Qin Qin then said, "I want to heal him. The disease of the king and relatives is used to save the poor and the lowly. "

The three people of the Qin family are virtuous and help the world. Even though Lu Jiu'an had known it for a long time, he still resonated with these inspiring words, and his heart was burning. My nose suddenly felt hot, and I almost shouted in response.

Fu'an had issued imperial edicts for many years, and this was the first time he met someone who refused to obey the edict. Lu Jiu'an thought he would be furious, but unexpectedly he seemed to have ignored it. Qin Jizhi didn't come to accept the edict, so he walked to Qin In front of Qin Zhao, he knelt down condescendingly and placed the imperial edict in Qin Zhao's cold hands.

"This?" Qin Zhao held the imperial edict in his hands, his face full of confusion.

Fu'an Shiran stood up: "Let's go on. Your Majesty expected this to happen. When the Zajia family got the imperial edict, His Majesty specifically told you that you, the Qin family, are a gentleman and are kind to the people. If you don't enter the palace, then you will continue to be among the people." Let's take the road."

The attendant lifted the last two boxes of rewards from the carriage and placed them in front of Qin Zhao.

"The Za family's errands have been finished. It's a cold day today. Oops, my hands are turning red from the cold. The Za family has to go ahead."

The last two boxes of rewards that Fu'an moved down were one box filled with heavy silver and the other full. Medical classics.

The books were scrolled at the edges because of their age. Qin Zhao picked up a volume and opened it. When he saw the familiar notes between the lines, he opened his eyes slightly and sighed after a while: "Your Majesty is thoughtful. It's something I often used to do in the Imperial Hospital." The borrowed medical books are only available in the palace and are difficult to find in the countryside."

The Hanlin Academy cleans out the old palace records every ten years. If they encounter unclear or dilapidated ones, if they are still usable, they will fill in the words and repair them. If they cannot be used, they will have to copy them again. If a volume is not collected by a famous person, it will eventually be burned to the ground.

This box of old books escaped the fate of being burned by fire. His Majesty must have specially left it behind.

The box of silver rewarded was enough for Qin Zhao to open a spacious medical clinic.

Qin Zhao and the others had no fixed place before. Lu Jiuan didn't want to watch his talents being wasted by life, so he found a reason to keep them in the house.

Now that they could practice medicine openly and with funds in hand, when Qin Jizhi came to say goodbye, Lu Jiuan no longer wanted to stay.

Qin Jizhi's family bought a store in the county town of Yingping, just two kilometers outside the county government office. They packed up and opened a simple medical clinic, and they were able to reorganize Xinglin.

Although they moved out, Qin Jizhi would still come to the house from time to time to fulfill his original promise and check up on the government officials regularly.

The recruitment of the second class of yamen servants also went smoothly. Whether they were looking for generous rewards or holding lofty ideals, Lu Jiu'an accepted all comers.

When Danzi, a new recruit from the second class of the Yamen Army, first joined the army, he caused a commotion for no other reason than that there was a tomboy among them.

Although Zhan Weizhu is different from ordinary women, she doesn't have that smoky willow appearance, she looks very heroic, and she walks with a swagger, but she can still tell that she is a woman between her eyebrows.

At this moment, the yamen servant had no intention of training, and Jiang Yu also had a look of shock on his face.

A woman? Wearing yamen's clothes? Joined the training team?

Fu Wenxin asked uncertainly: "Mr. Lu, this...is this a boy or a girl? Have you come to the wrong place?"

Zhan Weizhu strode up to Fu Wenxin without any shyness of a girl, crisp and clear . He asked in a loud voice: "What does it matter whether I am a boy or a girl?"

Fu Wenxin was in a daze: "A woman is really a woman. How can a woman be included in the government service?"

They heard that a woman came to the house. The beautiful little lady, as a master, teaches A Duo and Yang Miaomiao how to read and write. There is also an unreliable theory that in the future, their government officials will have to spend an hour every day to listen to Meng Yitai's lectures.

They are willing to face beautiful women, but they are so old, why do they still need to be literate?

The frank disdain on Fu Wenxin's face stung Zhan Weizhu's eyes. Zhan Weizhu knew that the county government office was no better than outside, so she didn't just squeeze her fists when she was angry. She pouted and said unhappily: "Female Why can't I become a yamen servant? I have met all the recruitment conditions set by Mr. Lu, so I will naturally come in."

Fu Wenxin clicked his tongue. It seems that the recruitment does not stipulate that yamen servants must be male, but all the conditions are met? Fu Wenxin looked Zhan Weizhu up and down, showing his disbelief.

Mu Lin didn't go out today, so she had free time to watch around. Seeing this, she sneered: "Ignorant and ignorant."

Lu Jiu'an smiled and said: "What kind of wisdom does Mu Xiaohou have?"

"Who said that men must be better than women? Women. Don't let me, this group of people are so ignorant after being trained by Han Er for a while. Then let this girl compete with them and weaken their spirit."

Lu Jiu'an said . Looking at him in surprise, Mu Lincheng was always out of shape, and often kept his mouth shut. His views on the abilities of men and women were unexpected.

Lu Jiu'an nodded and agreed: "Then do what you want."

Although Zhan Weizhu has some skills, he can't compare with Lu Jiu'an's experienced guards. One person was excluded and asked: "Which of you will compete with Zhan Weizhu? Win two out of three games."

Zhan Weizhu held his head high and stared around with his eyes, showing no intention of shrinking.

However, the yamen officials pushed me to give way, not because they didn't dare, but because they thought it would be impossible to win against a girl. When the time comes to compete, is it better to use force or let go?

Lu Jiuan calmly raised his chips: "If you beat Zhan Weizhu, add 10 performance points."

Ouch!

The yamen servants were completely excited, raising their hands like hungry wolves rushing towards food.

The government officials are evenly matched, and it is hard to tell the winner in training on weekdays. It is difficult to keep up with each other with performance points. Now that the performance points are delivered to your door, you will not earn them in vain.

Lu Jiu'an acted casually, and a tall and mighty man as tall as an iron tower came out of the team. He imitated the people in the world and shouted in a rough voice: "Liu Wo, I'm here to teach you."
