Chapter 314 Who to know about the workshop land
Chapter 314 Who do you know the land used in the workshop
The warm summer breeze blows gently, and a hint of green is reflected in the blue waves.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were not ready to go back in Xincai County for the time being. They wanted to organize the preliminary work in the county and lay a solid foundation and it would be convenient for others to take over.
As for whether they were absent from work, the two of them were not worried at all. They took three days off for casual leave, and also took two days for monthly leave this month. After five days, they took another ten days of sick leave, so they could stay outside for a total of half a month.
Of course, the two of them didn't say it, but they were thinking about showing up more. It would be better for Feng Changgong to discover and write an impeachment memorial, even if they couldn't do anything to him, it would make him disgusted.
On the third day after arriving in Xincai County, the two of them ran to the Rushui River, found a place on the shore, and sat there to watch an old man fishing there.
The water was fast, and there were no fish floats. The old man brought three rods and several lead weights, with many hooks on it. One hook and one hook is hung up, and then threw it into the running water with a whoosh, straightening the line, and putting the rod on the stone is considered to be one.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan didn't say anything, just looked at it, and it would be difficult for others to know what the two of them were thinking.
The old man wore a straw hat on his head, probably because he was afraid of getting confused. When Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan came over, they looked at the two of them. Seeing that the clothes and materials used on them were not mashed or silk, they could not guess the family situation of the two of them. However, looking at their expressions, they felt that they should not belong to ordinary people, so they did not take the initiative to talk.
Boats passed by on the river from time to time. Fortunately, the ground hook under the old man was not far from the shore and was not hung by the boat. He should have considered this a long time ago.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan stayed for half an hour. From time to time, Zhang Xiaobao would stand up and take out the monocular lens from the pocket where Wang Juan was cross-body, looking around. Wang Juan put a relatively hard grass stick in his hand and occasionally painted on the ground.
The old man was lucky today. He caught more than a dozen fish in half an hour, and three of them were enough to reach two pounds. The three of them always stayed silently, which made the old man unable to help but look at the two older children after a short while.
Suddenly I felt something was wrong. I caught fish by myself. In the past, some kids would shout happily, and I would give them a few fish when I left, but no one came in vain.
Today, why are these two weird guys not like others? I caught fish, but I just glanced at it, and then continued to sit down. The two kids might have become hot just now, so I pulled up a lot of grass next to me, weaved them into big hats and covered them on my head, and shrank them. If I didn’t look carefully, I wouldn’t have found that there were two people here.
The fishing rod trembled violently, and the old man quickly closed the line. This time he caught a fish weighing three pounds. The old man happily said to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan: "Do you want to eat fish? Take a big one home when you leave."
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were still busy with their own affairs. When they heard the old man talking, they turned their heads and looked over. Seeing that it was a catfish, Wang Juan glanced at Zhang Xiaobao and then said to the old man: "Grandpa, this one in your hand, Xiaobao and I bought it, and went back to braised it and ate it."
The old man didn't want to give this big one. The rod I brought today was quite difficult to catch catfish. It was said to be big. In fact, the one in his hand was much smaller than the one that was really bigger in the river. If he encountered that kind, he wouldn't be able to catch it at all. He wanted to keep it for one night and sell it tomorrow.
Seeing that the two of you said to buy it now, he hesitated for a moment, "I don't need the money, I'll take it for food. I'm also very beautiful when I see you two. Haha, it's not easy to stay with me for so long."
"Then thank you, grandpa." Wang Juan did not refuse, just a fish. After the factory and workshop were repaired, he had to find someone to watch the night. At that time, many old men who were fine would basically have the kind of leisure work, and arrange a good arrangement for the old man.
The old man listened to Wang Juan's voice and nodded happily, "Then I'll put it in the net first, and take it when I leave. Let's see that you two are good kids."
"Grandpa is also a good person. Good people will be rewarded. Grandpa, are there many catfish in the water?" Wang Juan also replied.
"There are many, and there are big ones. When I really meet big ones, I have to throw the rod. I don't dare to pull it up. If I drag people in, I won't see any shadows. There are also fish." The old man was willing to listen to Wang Juan's crisp voice when he spoke, and said with a smile.
Wang Juan thought for a moment, "How many idle people are there in the old man? Why not dig a pond and specialize in fish. The fish is delicious and you can make a lot of money when the time comes."
"There are quite a lot in the river, so why do I have nothing to do? I just have nothing to do. I can catch a few fish and buy candy for my grandson. I can take back the stew of the many." When the old man talked about his grandson, the wrinkles on his face piled up together, looking very kind.
Wang Juan heard that the old man lived a good life at home, so he no longer advised him to raise fish. There were a lot of fish in the river, but it was not comfortable to raise. You could catch it if you wanted.
In this case, the old man might not be able to come to watch the night. Wang Juan suggested again, "Grandpa, it's better to build a house nearby, which may be of great use in the future."
"That's not possible. I heard that there is a workshop here and don't take up other people's places." The old man understood a lot. He didn't know that Wang Juan just wanted him to build a house and cook some food for the people in the workshop, so that he could make more money.
Seeing that the old man disagreed, Wang Juan refused to persuade him, lowered his head and continued to draw his own.
Perhaps it was true that Wang Juan said that the old man’s three fishing rods were fish on the ground one after another. In a while, the net of fish that was put into the water was filled. The net was at least fifty kilograms, and they squeezed each other back and forth.
Just when the old man was worried about how to go back and gave Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan a big fish, a group of people came to the shore.
There were cars and horses. After stopping to the shore, people wearing yamen runners' clothes walked closer, surrounded by three people wearing official uniforms.
"Sir, what do you think about it here? Let Your Highness leave the workshop here." A penman bowed his body and asked next to the officials surrounded.
"Yeah, it's not bad, it's my choice, huh? There are a lot of fish. It's better to eat fish at noon today. Don't go far. Find two pots of fish at the house next to you, and stew them in live water."
The surrounded officials glanced at the place and thought that they could build a workshop. When they saw the old man struggling to trawl up the net, they wanted to eat fish.
When the old man heard the officials' words, he looked at them again and quickly bowed his head to greet him, "Mr. Feng is here, you can't build a workshop here, and the holes are drilled out of the bottom. If the rain gets heavy today, it will easily collapse a large piece. You have to choose a good place for the workshop."
"What do you know about cement? No matter what holes are there, just fill the cement in. Leave the fish, take the money, buy some meat and make dumplings."
A yamen runner next to him was dissatisfied with the old man's affairs, so he took out more than 20 cents and threw them on the ground, and he had to buy all the fish and reach out to pick them up.
The old man obviously didn't want to say anything, but he didn't dare to say anything, but his hands were very tight. This was not just a problem with the fish, but also the net. It took more than a day to make a net, and twine was not that good.
During the stalemate, a voice suddenly sounded, causing County Magistrate Feng to be so scared into the river.
"Grandpa, he wants to buy a fish and sell it to him. Unexpectedly, County Magistrate Feng is so elegant. He ran to the river to eat live fish. This place is in the southwest. County Magistrate Feng is not worried about something suddenly and losing his life? What is the crime of forced buying Xiaobao?"
As he spoke, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan stood up with their big straw hats. County Magistrate Feng stepped back and stood still. Then he looked at the person who suddenly appeared. After a glance, the good mood just now disappeared.
Zhang Xiaobao also said: "It's probably a death sentence, right? At least I have to be sent to Lingnan. Well, when I go to Luzhou, I am kind-hearted."
"Send it quickly." Feng Changgong was in the mood to hear Zhang Xiaobao's erratic mistakes, and shouted to the yamen runner who was still holding on to the fishing net. If the two of them were impeached, it would be a big deal and would be frustrated.
The yamen runners didn't recognize Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, but because they knew who the two were, they were frightened. They forgot to hold the net in their hands. When they heard the county magistrate's voice, they hurriedly sent their hands away. That's fast, just like the ones they caught were not the net, but the burning iron wire.
While hindering his legs, he stared at Wang Juan, and seeing whether Wang Juan smiled or not, he would rather believe that he had it than that he had nothing.
The old man was surprised, hehe, the kid is so amazing, each person says, scaring County Magistrate Feng like this, who belongs to?
"It turned out to be Zhang Zhubu and Wang County Magistrate. Both of them were not bad. They ran to the river to hide and play with scared people. They didn't force them to buy them, but asked someone to help the old man pick up the fish."
Feng Changgong still felt that his heart was beating violently, and he said to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan indignantly.
Wang Juan didn't care whether he was angry or not. He trotted two steps, came to the place where the yamen runners threw the money just now, bent down and picked it up one by one, and waved at Zhang Xiaobao, "Xiaobao, I don't know who lost the money. I'll buy some meat and make dumplings later."
"Then you have to ask who accidentally dropped it. What if the owner is next to you, who lost it? Who lost the money? No one agreed, take it."
Zhang Xiaobao looked at the terrain well today, and was very happy, and he also accompanied Wang Juan to crazy.
The old man finally knew who the two older children were. The new chief clerk and county magistrate of Baoxin County, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, no wonder they looked different from ordinary children. They ignored the fish and quickly said to the two people: "Xiaobao, Juanjuan, you can't build a workshop here. I heard that you are good to the prince, tell him, you can't repair it."
"Is the old man familiar with this place?" Wang Juan smiled at the yamen runner who had just thrown the money, put the money away, and asked the old man.
"Familiar, it's unusual here. Someone said, "I don't have any other skills, but I don't have any eyes." The old man finally met someone who he felt could compete with County Magistrate Feng, so he immediately patted his chest to promise.
"Earth energy?" Wang Juan didn't expect to meet a master, and he could actually have the legendary skills and mysterious things, but many people still believe in this. It is said that some mines were not measured using some instruments, but were asked to see them, even if the officials at that time believed in this.
He felt aroused in his heart and said, "Grandpa, why not ask you to do a favor or hire you to help you see more. Grandpa, don't worry, where is the workshop built? What Magistrate Feng said is not the final word. Magistrate Feng, what do you think?"
