"It's not that chess, chess is rented, there are Go and chess, Goji, and even two people who want to play Monopoly, there are also simple ones." The seller replied.

"Come on the side chess."

"One penny, three cents deposit, there are also printed chess scores here. I wonder if the two adults want it? Twenty penny, one book." The seller took out the chess. The wooden one was not worth three cents at all, and he did not forget to sell the chess scores.

"Another portion of the wine and food, you need a different dish." Wang Wei saw that there were not only four kinds of vegetables in the cart, so he ordered another one and took out the money to the seller.

Waiting for the seller to leave, Wang Wei poured wine for Li Bai and said, "Brother Taibai, do you think this Wang and the other families are so amazing? Xiao Bei is so old that he can think of such a powerful method. Alas! I admire him, I really admire him."

Li Bai picked up the wine cup and nodded, "It's unusual. After eating later, don't forget to take the things and ask someone to ask about it. You can leave a souvenir for them. If you want to say that this train is really better than a carriage, it's not a little faster. If you take a carriage, it will probably take three days to get there. It's still easier to walk. If you drive hard, your body will be dispersed."

Wang Wei felt the "comfort" of the train, drank a cup of wine, picked up a bite of food, and savored it carefully, and said, "I heard that Your Majesty also needs to build railways in various parts of the Tang Dynasty. It will be difficult to think about sending people to be sent. Could it be that sending people to take the train?

Waiting to connect to Lingnan all the way, maybe it is still a pleasure. It is difficult to die on the way. Unfortunately, after I went to Hongnong, I couldn’t watch this year’s autumn examination. This year, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan participated, so I could only come back and listen to people, or send someone to send a telegram. It’s better to see it with my own eyes.”

When Li Bai thought of the imperial examination, he felt uncomfortable all over. He didn't participate. Wang Wei participated, but he was still a Jinshi. He always felt a little different in his identity. When he thought of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan participating in the imperial examination, he said, "The position of the two of them has been set, so what if they don't look at it? Could it be that after watching, they will not be the top scholar, one in literature and one in martial arts, and the top scholar in the female martial arts."

"You can't say that, it's okay to say that you're determined, but if you don't decide, will you really not give them the top scorer if you participate? The purpose of the imperial examination is to select talents to govern the country. Who dares to say that you are better than them in this regard?"

Wang Wei used another idea. He picked up the wine jar and poured wine for Li Bai again. He looked at the trees passing by "fastly" outside the window and stopped making a sound for a while.

Li Bai also drank half a tank of wine, because it was white wine. Although Li Bai always said he drank too much, he was confused after drinking it, so both of them looked slightly fumigated.

After drinking, Li Bai felt comfortable and seemed very relaxed. He asked Wang Wei: "Brother Mojie, why do I always feel that things will be wrong with Hongnong? Are you too happy to take the train?"

Wang Wei waved his hand, "I think it's wrong, there must be something wrong there, otherwise we wouldn't be sent to the two of us at the same time. I can't say that there is a group of people there. Now the officials want to take risks if they have the opportunity, regardless of the lives and death of the people."

Wang Wei's feelings were similar to Li Bai, and at the same time he was very dissatisfied with some of the local officials, and they showed that they were expressed in their words. Of course, he had never seen Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's officials at that time. If they met, they would find that the officials of the Tang Dynasty were still good and could even be called excellent. At least they still had a heart of awe.

This is also the reason why Zhang Xiaobao tried to give others the opportunity when he started in Sanshui County. The officials I met before were afraid, and knew that they had done something wrong, and that they were taking risks. Unlike him and Wang Juan, the officials didn't even want their faces. They knew that they would harm the people, but they still did it as calmly.

Seeing that Wang Wei was also worried, Li Bai frowned and asked, "Brother Mojie, what should I do if that kind of thing really happens? There is no one around us who can use it? The court sent us down and didn't give it to others, aren't you afraid that something will happen to us?"

"Let's take one step at a time. Then go to Hongnong to find people. I hope everything goes well. I think it's better for us to go in vain. If something really happens, it might be over there. It's hard to support the human resources under natural disasters. I don't know how many people will suffer. Zhang Xiaobao is unwilling to organize disaster relief in person now, so it's hard."

Wang Wei also stopped the chopsticks and couldn't eat them anymore. He was like Li Bai, a literati, and had such a little bit of a grudge.

The two of them fell silent for a moment, only the rumbling sound of the train was in their ears, but they felt a sense of distant voices. It was so unreal, everything seemed like a dream.

Taking such a fast train, there is a vast ocean of scenery where you are going. The progress of science and technology and the difficulty of people's livelihood form a strong contrast.

As I thought about it, the train gradually slowed down, and then stopped on the platform. Some people got off the train and some people got on the train. After a while, they made another rumbling sound and gradually accelerated to leave.

Li Bai came back to his senses, looked at the trees that had begun to retreat backwards, and said, "Human power is really not able to resist the sky? When the Zhang and Wang families went to Luzhou? And when someone broke the Yangtze River dam in Shufuzhou? If it was God's will to punish the people of Luzhou, they could say that they have been going against the sky, aren't they coming here too?"

"You still want to compete with them? Haven't you seen their children? How old was Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan at that time? They were able to help start allocating supplies. Look at Xiaobei and the others now, they all looked like humans and could not compare at all.

If you really want to compare, go to Silla and give you thousands of soldiers to see if you can be afraid of Silla. I guess Silla will be very happy to hear that it is you who leads the troops."

Wang Wei hit Li Bai without any face, making Li Bai's face turn red.

The two of them continued to eat, waiting to drink all the wine, bought another jar, and filled the wine cup again. Li Bai suddenly asked, "You said that if it weren't for me, but if Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan and the others were sent to Hongnong, no one would follow them, would they do it?"

"What do you think? You're trying to send them two? Just get Xiao Bei and the others. Even if Hongnong has nothing to do, the local officials will be scared away a few times."

"I asked to send them over before they became famous." Li Bai set an aspect.

"It's not the same. Did they not have much fame when they were in Jian? The methods they learned from experts at home are extraordinary. It's right to think about it. What would they do if they were going to Hongnong? Come on, think about it, maybe there would be a way."

As Wang Wei spoke, he suddenly had a new idea and no longer put himself in the situation to consider the problem.

Li Bai's eyes lit up, and he thought while eating. After a while, he said, "I guess they will use money to bribe people. When they have no money, they will find a way to make money first. Brother Mojie, will you make money? I didn't bring too much money."

Wang Wei looked at Li Bai and nodded, "Indeed, they really could do that. It really doesn't work. After arriving at the local area, he sent a telegram to the capital city to ask. I just couldn't figure out why I didn't send someone to us."

*******

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan figured out something that Wang Wei and Li Bai couldn't figure out on the train.

When the two of them were studying and chatting, they mentioned Li Bai and asked someone to send a telegram to ask. They learned that Li Bai was actually going to Hongnong with Wang Wei, and they didn't bring anyone, so they had a new topic.

"It's quite interesting that the two of them got together. I don't know how many poems I can write along the way. I hope the bumpy train will not have much impact on them."

Zhang Xiaobao said while holding a pen in his hand and practicing calligraphy.

"What's the bump? The bumps are relative. I don't think they will feel bumpy. It's much more comfortable to take a train than a carriage, unless they have also been to us and have experienced the bumpless train."

Wang Juan no longer reads books, but takes out the military map and checks the situation in various places on it.

He said he wanted to compete with Zhang Xiaobao for the top scorer, but Wang Juan knew that even if Zhang Xiaobao did not have his current identity, he would not be able to get the top scorer when taking the exam with him, because Zhang Xiaobao calculated better than her in this regard in terms of economic accounting.

So it would be better to win the top martial arts scholar. At that time, the two top martial arts scholars have different identities and will be convenient for doing things in the future, so they opened the military map.

The so-called top martial arts scholars do not depend on who can fight. They can fight on one hand. Now that there is a gun, there is no need to look at how many people the general can beat, but on the accuracy. The main consideration is the command ability of the general. If you want to compare, you must win more beautifully.

After looking at the map for a while, Wang Juan picked up a pen, wrote a few times on the notebook next to her, and said, "What I wonder now is that since the imperial court sent them to the two of them, why didn't they have personnel? If the local officials united to do bad things, they would not have any staff, how should they check?"

"You are still an official. How do you check if you don't have anyone? Of course, I bought it with money. Li Longji must have wanted to see their abilities."

Zhang Xiaobao held his breath and finished writing a word, and continued to write the next word.

Wang Juan glared at Zhang Xiaobao with dissatisfaction, "What I want to know is Li Longji's purpose. I want to see how he can't see it like this. If this is really calculated, it is just the worst aspect."

"Then tell me what's going on?"

"I guess Li Longji is planning to see the attitude of local officials to check the people sent from above. If they don't get any useful information after they arrive in Hongnong, what do you think about Li Longji? As long as they send a telegram to Li Longji in truth, Li Longji will understand that the officials there will not take the court seriously.

Or, the local officials really did something bad. They were afraid that people would investigate. If you don’t believe it, just watch it. Li Bai and the others really had no gains. The local defense was not leaking. Then Hongnong’s officials were about to finish, and no one would like to happen that could not be controlled.”

Wang Juan analyzed to Zhang Xiaobao. Since Zhang Xiaobao said that she was an official, she had to consider it according to the ideas in the officialdom.

Zhang Xiaobao didn't say anything directly, and continued to write his own words. When he was waiting for one piece of paper to finish writing and getting another piece, Zhang Xiaobao suddenly put the pen on the pen holder, turned his head to look at Wang Juan and said, "I understand, damn Li Longji, he is making up for our ideas."

"What's the idea for him to play? Wouldn't we let the imperial examinations take? That's right, let's go back to the Northeast, how comfortable it would be to get there, and you can still build a snowman in winter."

Wang Juan did not guess the reason this time, and he didn't know where Zhang Xiaobao got this conclusion.

Zhang Xiaobao had no intention of writing, so he invited someone to come in, and asked someone to send a telegram to Xiaobei and the others, asking about their situation, and then said to Wang Juan: "Of course we won't leave, but Xiaobei and the others are walking back and forth. They are in Wannian County, not far from Hongnong.

Didn’t Xiao Bei and the others say yesterday that they took the train to play and helped the train to come up with a good way to make money and not force others to spend money. Since they can take the train to play, it is not a big deal to go to Hongnong once.

Li Longji wanted to see if Hongnong officials cooperated, and also test Li Bai and Wang Wei. I guess it won’t take long before Li Longji will send us a telegram and tell us that he wants Xiaobei and a few little guys to follow Hongnong to see."

"Really? If Xiaobei and the others received a telegram from Li Longji, they would definitely go there happily. Could it be that Li Longji would even make plans for Xiaobei? It's so annoying."

Wang Juan said angrily and suddenly laughed again.
