Chapter 126 Stirring up a pool of stagnant water

Chapter 126

The monsoon climate brings a lot of rain and high temperature to Lingnan. Due to the obstruction of the Nanling Mountains, the difference between Lingnan and Lingbei is not far, but the climate is very different.

In the north of Nanling, you may have to wear long sleeves, but in the south of Lingnan, it is already so hot that you want to jump into the water and swim twice.

Due to the impact of the climate, the crops in the fields in the south of the Five Ridges have already started to turn yellow, and they may be ready for harvest in less than a month.

In order to get more harvests, the farmers are busy weeding the last time. If the paddy fields have too much water, they have dug channels to let the excess water flow out of the paddy fields, making final preparations for the upcoming harvest season.

Ding Dazhuang led a group of brothers into the city looking at the harvest scenery.

The farmers' harvest was imminent, and they had a huge harvest when they went out this time. Looking back at the long queue, Ding Dazhuang couldn't help grinning.

After another month of bumper harvest, the bandits will be active again. This time he went out to live up to his master's instructions, wiped out a group of bandits, ransacked their bandit dens, and captured more than 300 young and middle-aged bandits.

These are all strong labors!
It's just that his mood was soaring, and soon he found that there were especially many people on the street today, and everyone was smiling, it seemed that his good mood had infected them.

So suppressing his excitement, he asked Wei Dong who was walking beside him, "What's going on? Is there a happy event in the city?"

Wei Dong went to the city with him, who knows what happened, but he is more sociable than Ding Dazhuang.

Being good at communication does not mean knowing everything.

"You don't even know, how would I know? I'm not a clairvoyant or a clairvoyant. How could I know what happened in the city when I was fighting bandits outside together with you."

Ding Dazhuang encouraged him: "Go and ask someone."

Wei Dong gave him a blank look, but he didn't object, because he also wanted to know what happened in the city?
He walked quickly to the side of the street and stopped a pair of old women carrying vegetable baskets, "Two sisters, please stay."

The two old ladies were suddenly stopped by someone, and they were taken aback. When they saw each other's clothes clearly, they asked nervously, "You, what are you trying to do while blocking us?"

"Xiaosheng just wanted to ask that the people in the city seem to be very happy, did they meet any happy event?"

When the two old ladies heard the question, they immediately lifted their spirits, and the nervousness on their faces disappeared instantly.

One of the taller women said excitedly: "You should have just entered the city, right?"

The clothes Wei Dong and the others wore were ordinary coarse cotton because they were going to go up the mountain to suppress the bandits. Coupled with the long procession of carriages, the two old women directly mistook them for a caravan that had just entered the city.

Wei Dong nodded under the expectant eyes of the old woman, "Yes, we just entered the city."

Knowing that she had guessed right, the tall old woman was obviously more excited, "I just said, if I didn't just enter the city, how could I not know what happened in the city?"

Another short woman looked at the long team and gave Wei Dong a thumbs up, "You are not bad, you are leading such a large caravan at a young age."

As he spoke, he rolled his eyes and began to question, "Young man, what's your name? Where are you from? How old are you? Are you married?"

The tall woman listened to the old sister's questioning, and looked at Wei Dong seriously. The dish was beautiful and smooth, not bad!
There was excitement on her face, and she leaned over and asked, "Yes, young man, are you the leader of the caravan? You can make a lot of money by running there?"

Wei Dong: "."

Why is this routine so familiar?
He scratched his head, hehe smiled: "I don't earn much, enough for me alone, two sisters, haven't you told me what happy event happened in the city?"

The tall woman regained her composure, "Oh, what you asked is a long story."

How could the little woman give up if she didn't understand what she wanted to know.

She pushed the tall woman away, "Young man, you haven't answered my question just now."

"Oh." Wei Dong recalled the question they just asked, "My name is Wei Dong, I am 20 years old, I am from Lingnan, and I am a bachelor. Sister, I answered your question, now it is your turn to answer mine. "

The short woman ignored Wei Dong's question, but excitedly slapped her thigh, "20 years old, really young and strong, not bad!"

Although Wei Dong didn't understand what she meant, it didn't stop him from raising his arms to show off his muscles.

Seeing this, the two women's eyes were blazing, and each of them grabbed Wei Dong's arm.

The short woman suppressed the excitement in her heart, and asked with a pleasant face: "Young man, no, Wei Dong, what do you want from your other half?"

Wei Dong hung two humanoid objects on his arms, his head was a little confused, "Request?"

"Yes, what do you want from your future wife?"

"wife?"

Happiness came so suddenly that Wei Dong couldn't turn his head around, but he finally figured it out.

That is, the two sisters wanted to match him.

Is this going to be my luck?

Is it possible to end the single life this year?

Can you hold the warm and soft wife to watch the New Year?

Ding Dazhuang stood aside and looked straight at him, he was annoyed when he realized it.

What's the matter, Wei Dong can win the favor of the aunt by just asking for directions.

He thought he was no worse than Wei Dong.

Therefore, Ding Dazhuang handed the big knife to his brother, rubbed his face, and quickly squeezed over.

He grinned at the two women: "Two sisters, excuse me, Xiaosheng is asking you."

Suddenly, a big beard appeared next to him, and the two women took a step back in fright, folded their arms tightly, and stared at him vigilantly, "In broad daylight, what do you want to do? Do you want to rob sex?"

"." Ding Dazhuang's smiling face instantly cracked!

The short woman threatened: "Big beard, don't stare at us, we are cowardly, be careful we scream in fright, call the neighbors to arrest you and go to the police!"

The tall woman found that Wei Dong was tall and reliable, so she dragged the short woman to hide behind Wei Dong.

With the support of the two, the two became more courageous, and the tall woman muttered: "The world is getting worse, even people as beautiful as you and me will come forward to strike up a conversation. Next time the little lady at home wants to go to the street, she will be grounded. It's just too dangerous."

The short woman nodded in agreement.

Ding Dazhuang was speechless, he touched his bearded face, and his eyes signaled Wei Dong: Do I look like a bad guy?

Wei Dong couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha"

"Wei Dong, what are you laughing at?" The tall woman gently pushed Wei Dong in front of her.

Wei Dong suppressed his smile, "Sisters, I still have work to do, let's chat next time we have a chance to meet."

The tall woman waved her hand and watched Wei Dong leave with the team, "This young man is in good condition in all aspects, and he is a perfect match with my daughter."

The short woman shook her head regretfully, "It's also compatible with my daughter, but I don't know if there will be fate to see you next time?"

"It's hard for me to take a fancy to a son-in-law, so don't rob me. I think the young man who came over later is not bad, how about your daughter choose the bearded man?"

"The beard looks too old. My daughter likes the one with a tender face. Or, give the beard to your daughter. She seems to like this one."

The tall man rolled his eyes and shook his head: "The two of us spoke out loud just now and scared that kid, how can we recruit him?"

How embarrassing it is to be a family in the future!
Wei Dong didn't get the information he wanted from the two women just now, and he was wondering whether to find another person to inquire about it, or go to see the princess first?
He was hesitating, when suddenly the cheers of the people came from the street.

And the people on the side of the road seemed to know what happened, and asked the neighbors next to them, "I don't know which lucky person finally came to claim a lot of land after all the hard work?"

"It must be. Before King Qian did not come to Lingnan, none of our farmers were forced to pay more taxes. Now that it is all right, the prince's mansion has re-measured the acres of land, and our farmers have a chance to turn around."

"Yes, I used to hate the person who forced our farmers to pay more taxes. Now our farmers are really grateful to his ancestors for eight generations. Without his persecution back then, how can we get more land now?"

"Haha, you are right, thank them for persecuting them!"

Listening to the people talking on the side of the road, Wei Dong saw people running towards the street, holding the land deed in his hand, running and shouting excitedly.

It seems that this is the only way to vent the excitement and joy in my heart!

At this time, Wei Dong can probably guess what happened without asking passers-by.

"It seems that the imperial concubine's decree is already being implemented. Judging from the feedback from the people, the decree should be implemented smoothly."

"Today we will present our spoils this time again. Is it double happiness for the princess?"

Ding Dazhuang looked back at the long line that had stretched all the way. The concubine should be happy to present these trophies.

"It must be double happiness, haha, I don't know what kind of reward the princess will give us?"

The sudden appearance of such a long line on the street naturally attracted the attention of many people.

In a private room on the second floor of the roadside tea house, Tong Song saw all the ecstatic farmers and the long queue.

"Wang Qian's Mansion has only been in Lingnan for a long time, and it has turned Lingnan upside down. I don't know what kind of movement they will make in the future?"

There were quite a few young masters in the private room, and they all complained that the series of measures taken by the Qian Palace had caused them heavy losses.

Young Master Chen turned back from the window and sat on the chair, feeling the coolness emanating from the ice basin, and said: "In the past, Lingnan was like a pool of stagnant water, but the arrival of Qian Wang's Mansion has disturbed the tranquility of Lingnan by itself. When the water becomes calm, it is not known how many people can catch the big fish hidden under the water.”

Tong Song shook his fan and snorted coldly, "We don't know how many big fish there are for now, but you, Young Master Chen, have earned the first pot of gold before us."

Young Master Chen knew that Tong Song was talking about the business of selling snowflake salt to other state capitals.

Hearing the other party's slightly sour words, he could only smile: "Thanks to the Princess for not giving up, for giving me a chance to make a little money, of course Chen will not miss it."

Fishing in troubled waters also requires good eyesight. If your eyesight is not good, even if a fish slips past your feet, you will not be able to catch it.

It's not that no one else has discovered this business opportunity in selling salt this time.

However, this time there is an exception.

The princess's natal family, the Xia family, also discovered this business opportunity, but their family came to Lingnan one step late, one step late, he took a trip to other provinces first and seized the business opportunity one step ahead of them.

A group of young masters were ashamed to death after hearing what Young Master Chen said.

They had already lost a large amount of property under the pressure of Qian Wang's mansion to fight the local tyrants to divide the land. In the end, this boy from the Chen family came to rub salt on their wounds.

Too much!

Tong Song looked at the passing team outside the window, his eyes flickered, this seems to be a good harvest!
Cleaning up the hidden households and re-measuring the fields and registering them all went smoothly.

If this decree is completed, it can be regarded as a good achievement.

Seeing this, Prince Qian, who has been devoting himself to being a dandy, is a little flustered these days.

At the family banquet, Prince Qian could not avoid talking loudly and boastfully while drinking some wine.

Just when Xia Jing was getting impatient, Zeng Yan came to report that the guards she had sent out to suppress the bandits had returned.

Xia Jing was almost done eating, so she put down her chopsticks and stood up, "Eat slowly, I have to go ahead."

King Qian put down his wine glass and said with a mouth full of alcohol, "Princess, don't worry. It's not convenient for you to receive the guards in the backyard. You will receive them in the study later, and I will go with you."

Xia Jing raised her eyebrows, "Did you drink to your heart's content?"

King Qian laughed: "Wine can be drunk at any time, but there are not many opportunities to accompany the princess."

It means that drinking is not as important as being with the princess.

All the family members who were accidentally fed a mouthful of dog food all lowered their heads and no one was embarrassed to watch their husband and wife interact.

Xia Jing was speechless, she had naturally noticed the reaction of her family members, she didn't want to refute King Qian's face for such a trivial matter in front of the juniors.

It doesn't matter whether she receives the captains of the guards in the backyard or in the study.

King Qian did not give Xia Jing a chance to object, and told Zeng Yan: "Take him to the study and wait, we will go there right away."

On the way to the study, King Qian said: "The backyard of the mansion is still too small, sometimes it's a bit inconvenient to receive guests. Wangfei, when will we move to the mansion?"

The palace mentioned by King Qian is naturally the ancestral house of the Lou family, and now he has hung a plaque on the palace of Qian Wang.

It is only because I have been busy with land reform during this period that the move has been delayed.

Xia Jing has no objection to moving, she prefers to live in a more spacious and comfortable place.

"It's up to you to decide, I have no objection."

Entering the study, Xia Jing immediately noticed a man with a straight back kneeling in the middle of the study.

The man's hands were tied behind his back.

The husband and wife took the main seat, and several squadron leaders including Ding Dazhuang, Wei Dong, Cheng Gu, Yan Qiong and Zuo Jing saluted them together.

King Qian smiled, and said in an easy-going tone: "Sit down, tell us what you have gained from going out to suppress bandits this time?"

Ding Dazhuang looked at Xia Jing.

Xia Jing smiled and nodded: "Is there any danger going out this time, is there any brother injured?"

Ding Dazhuang clasped his hands and replied: "My lord and concubine, everything went smoothly this time when we went out, but when we captured the bandits' den, we met the bandits' full resistance, and the heroic souls of more than a dozen of our brothers stayed in Jigong Mountain forever. "

Losing more than a dozen personal guards, Xia Jing felt a little distressed, "I will distribute pension money according to the standards of martyrs, and take more care of her family."

They are her personal guards, and the government will not bear their pension money, but Xia Jing can pay the money to appease them by herself according to the government's standards.

 Thank you 45. Looking up, your simplicity, Ye Xingchen 3399, ChaoQiong, I really like the recommendation and support of Jinlingdong, Xinruzhishui, Minmin~
  And thank you Xiaobingbing love and Papa Niu for their monthly ticket support~
