The Great Martial Saint!

Chapter 237 Machinery
After leaving Lihua Lane, Chen Pingan wandered around Weishui County for a while.

Speaking of which, after staying in Weishui County for so long, he has not yet had a good look around the county.

At first, I had time but not the time. Later, I had neither time nor time. When I almost had time and time, I encountered suppression from the Fang family.

Now, it was a rare trip back to Weishui, and things were basically done. Chen Pingan could also calm down and take a good look around here.

In Weishui County, the streets paved with bluestone slabs crisscrossed and led in all directions. There were many shops on both sides, and people came in and out from time to time, making it very lively.

There are various shops on both sides, including treasure shops, craft workshops, weapon shops, and treasure pavilions.

Chen Ping'an strolled along the bustling streets, admiring the prosperity of the world.

"Tanghulu, selling Tanghulu!"

There were hawking sounds coming from a corner of the street, and Chen Pingan couldn't help but smile.

"If Nannan was here, she would definitely be clamoring for candied haws again."

This little girl, if you say she is immature, she can tell him seriously that she wants to learn the art of being a king. But if you say she is mature, she can't walk when she sees food.

After imagining what Chen Erya looked like, Chen Pingan showed a smile on his face.

Chen Pingan happened to pass by a treasure house and walked in.

"Sir, welcome, please come in." A maid greeted him respectfully at the door.

Although Chen Pingan was not wearing the uniform of the Pacification Division, he was well dressed and looked like a wealthy or noble man. The maid leading him was naturally very cautious.

"What do you want to see, sir?"

This shop is quite large and filled with all kinds of treasures.

Chen Pingan did not answer the maid's question, but glanced around.
His eyes were attracted by a bracelet woven with colorful silk threads not far away.

The bracelet is decorated with a small piece of gold ornament with exquisite patterns carved on it.

“This bracelet is great!”

Chen Ping'an's eyes lit up.

According to custom, when a baby turns one year old, he or she needs to be given a pair of silver rings on his or her feet to prevent the child from getting lost.

People with poor conditions use less material in their silver rings, while those with better conditions use more solid ones.

When Chen Erya turned one, Old Chen was still alive and the family was well off. He made a pair of solid silver rings for the little girl, with a delicate little bell hanging on them.

Wherever the little girl went, there was a jingle-jingle sound.

But later, Old Chen was seriously injured and retired from the Pacification Division. In order to give Chen Ping an identity as a temporary official, he pawned the silver ring!
I still remember the little girl's red eyes and pursed lips, trying not to cry. Chen Ping'an still remembers that pitiful look.

Later, when he was promoted to the position of a police officer, he tried to redeem the silver rings. However, it had been so long that Nannan's pair of silver rings had long been lost.

When Chen Pingan came out of the Treasure Pavilion, he already had an exquisite gift box in his hand, which contained the bracelet.

My daughter is older now and no longer needs the silver ring, but this bracelet is just the right gift for her.

In fact, he was really negligent as a brother! When he was in Baishi City, he was considered a big boss, but he never gave his daughter a proper gift.

Make up for it! Make up for it! Make up for it all!

Chen Pingan smiled and shook his head.

Next, Chen Pingan went to buy some small gadgets. When he passed by a bookstore, he went in and bought several books, which were just right to give to his daughter as gifts.

Speaking of which, it’s been a while since I left Bai Shi City. I wonder how my daughter is doing at home?
The eldest brother is like a father!
Chen Ping'an felt a little worried like an old father.

"After meeting Commander Liu, we will immediately set off to return to Baishi City!" Chen Pingan stayed in the inn for another night. It was not that he had no other place to stay in Weishui County. In fact, many colleagues in the Weishui Town Pacification Office invited him to stay at their homes for a few days. Some colleagues even said that they had vacant houses somewhere and welcomed him to stay at any time.

Chen Pingan declined all these invitations. Everything in this world is easy to repay, but favors are the hardest to repay.

Early in the morning, Chen Pingan went to the Weishui Pacification Office again. Amid the respectful greetings of many officers, he walked into the gate of the Pacification Office.

Today he was lucky, drinking tea in Zhao Lianzhi's office, and was told that Commander Liu was free.

In the bright and spacious luxurious public housing, Chen Pingan met this important figure of the Weishui Zhenfu Division again.

"Your humble servant greets you, sir!" Chen Ping'an bowed his head and saluted, his gesture was just right.

"Peace is here!"

When he met Chen Pingan again, Liu Yuanhua acted very gentle, like a kind and amiable elder, as if he had forgotten that Chen Pingan had rejected his solicitation last time.

Although he didn't know what Liu Yuanhua was up to, since the other party was so kind, Chen Pingan was naturally happy about it.

The two had a smooth exchange. Liu Yuanhua asked Chen Pingan about his thoughts on the inspection of the outer perimeter of the trade route and his judgment on the form of the trade route.

Since he had assumed the position of deputy envoy for the inspection of the trade routes, Chen Pingan also had some thoughts in his spare time. Chen Pingan answered Liu Yuanhua's questions fluently.

"I heard that you went to the Mu family two days ago?" Liu Yuanhua said casually.

coming!

Chen Ping'an's heart tightened slightly.

I knew it wouldn’t be that easy!

"Replying to Lord Liu, I have been on good terms with Mu Wanjun, the eldest daughter of the Mu family, since I was a humble official. I was invited by Wanjun to attend a banquet the night before." Chen Ping'an replied.

"I see." Liu Yuanhua nodded. "I didn't expect you to have such a connection with the Mu family."

Old fox!
As if you didn't know!

Chen Pingan was thinking in his heart.

Liu Yuanhua can sit in this position, Chen Pingan doesn’t believe that such simple information will make him not understand it?

Asking him this question may have a deeper meaning.

Sure enough, Liu Yuanhua said next: "There are countless young men in Weishui County, but only you and my Liu family's genius Liu Ziming have made it to the Canglongzhou Rookie List. Since you two are both geniuses, you should get to know each other well.

I wonder if Ping An is interested in attending my Liu family's banquet and getting to know my Liu family's genius?"

Although Liu Yuanhua did not say it explicitly, the meaning of his words was clear.

You went to the Mu family banquet the day before yesterday. You said that you went to the Mu family banquet because you were good friends with Mu Wanjun, the daughter of the Mu family. I agree with this.

Then, since you are coming to my Liu family, shouldn’t you come to my Liu family because you and Liu Ziming are both geniuses on the rookie list?
Besides, Liu Ziming is not comparable to Mu Wanjun. Naturally, my Liu family is not comparable to the Mu family. In the entire Weishui County, only my Liu family has the qualifications and strength to win you over!

Compared with the last recruitment, Liu Yuanhua's recruitment this time is undoubtedly more obscure.

Chen Pingan naturally understood what Liu Yuanhua meant.

"If Lord Liu invites me, Ping An will definitely attend. However, I just want to work hard for the Pacification Bureau step by step! I am not worthy of the title of a genius, so please don't embarrass me, Lord Liu."

Oh?
As soon as Chen Ping'an finished speaking, Liu Yuanhua looked up and looked at him, with a hint of hostility in his eyes.

You can invite him to a dinner, but don't mention trying to win him over again!

He means rejection!
