Spoilers for The Red Mansion, Daiyu’s mentality is broken

Chapter 382 Strange Man and Dog
Grandma Liu called out one by one, and soon a dozen people came out.

These people who were called out by Grandma Liu looked at the four-wheeled carriage in front of them with a look of awe on their faces.

He didn't even dare to take big steps when walking, and his tone of voice was much softer.

"Grandma Liu, who do you think this noble person is?"

"Grandma Liu, you are now rich and powerful, so don't forget me!"

Grandma Liu said loudly and grandly: "You have your ears stuffed with donkey hair. This is Mr. Jia, the county magistrate of our Ping'an County. Why don't you kneel down and worship?"

What?The young man in the car behind is actually the county magistrate?
That's right, I think so.If it weren't for the county magistrate, who would have such a grand scene?

Riding in a four-wheeled carriage, with an escort of officers and soldiers accompanying him?
Oh my god, grandma Liu, she had such bad luck that she was sent back by the county magistrate himself.

It seems that when I see Grandma Liu in the future, I will lower my head to talk to her.

These common people hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Common people pay homage to the county magistrate!"

Jia Huan smiled slightly, stepped out of the carriage, and then said with help: "Everyone, please get up, no need to be polite."

These people then stood up in awe.

The bolder ones glanced at Jia Huan and quickly lowered their heads, while the timid ones never dared to raise their heads.

Seeing the commotion here, more and more people walked out of their homes and knelt down to Jia Huan.

Jia Huan looked at Wangjiacun while supporting everyone.

The entire Wangjia Village is a cluster of mud-walled thatched houses.

Moreover, many of the houses are dilapidated, and even new houses are rare.

The villagers in Wangjia Village have mostly sluggish faces and skinny faces, with not a single fat person in sight.

This made Jia Huan's face become heavy.

It seems that the establishment of the horse and carriage shop has not had a big impact on Wangjiacun.

The life of the people here is still very poor.

Of course, it is also possible that the time is too short and the effect has not yet been demonstrated.

Just as Jia Huan was thinking about this, an old man with white hair came tremblingly on a walking stick.

Grandma Liu hurriedly introduced: "Sir, this is Mrs. Li Zheng Wang from our Wangjia Village."

Mrs. Wang walked up to Jia Huan, dropped her walking stick and was about to kneel down.

Jia Huan pulled him back.

Grandpa Wang said hurriedly: "Your Excellency is really the Grand Master of Qingtian. After your Excellency came to our Pingan County, he first got rid of the big evil-doing households and exempted us from agricultural taxes, making our lives much easier."

"Your Majesty is so kind and kind, and we, the common people, will never forget it. I must kowtow to you on behalf of the whole village, young and old."

Jia Huan grabbed Old Mrs. Wang and said, "Old man, if you kneel to me at such an old age, wouldn't it cost me my life?"

"Alas, I, Tian, ​​have been appointed as the parents' official of Ping'an County. I should serve as an official for a long time and benefit the whole country. Now that I see that your life is still difficult, I feel really uneasy."

"But don't worry. After I go back, I will definitely find a way to let everyone live a good life. I will make sure that you all have enough to eat and new clothes to wear."

After hearing what Jia Huan said, the surrounding villagers burst into tears of gratitude and knelt down to kowtow.

Jia Huan hurriedly ordered everyone to get up, and then went to Grandma Liu's house surrounded by everyone.

Jia Huan discovered that Grandma Liu’s house was the best in the village.

I think it was the first time she went to Jia's house to fight the autumn wind and got money. When she came back, she could make a living and became the richest man in Wangjia Village.

Hearing the noise outside, a couple walked out uneasily.

That man was the man who was blackmailed last time and Jia Huan wrote the word "Run" on his palm.

When he saw so many people outside, he was so panicked that he wanted to hide behind him, which made Grandma Liu very angry.She shouted hurriedly: "Gouzi, this is the county magistrate of our Ping'an County. Mr. Qingtian, who helped you get out of trouble last time. Didn't you say when you came back last time that you must kowtow a few times to say thank you to the county magistrate again? Now? What are you hiding from?"

When Grandma Liu barked like this, the dog strode over quickly, knelt down and kowtowed.

Jia Huan smiled and helped him up quickly.

Next, the people in Wangjia Village moved the things that Jia's family had given to Grandma Liu into the house.

How have these people ever seen this?
Even in dreams, they are things that cannot be dreamed of.

Now they can't look straight in the eyes and let out countless exclamations.

After moving all the things, they gradually dispersed.

Grandma Liu hurriedly invited Jia Huan into the room, moved the chair herself, wiped it clean with a towel, and then carefully asked Jia Huan to sit down.

Then they arranged a banquet, looked at Jia Huan eagerly, and said that your Excellency has helped my family a lot, which is a blessing to survive. No matter what, I must ask my benefactor to stay for dinner, so as to repay my benefactor's kindness in case of emergency.

Jia Huan thought for a while, agreed without refusing.

Grandma Liu was so happy that she hurriedly went out to prepare. Before leaving the house, she called the dog over and asked him to talk to the adults.

The dog's nervous hands had nowhere to rest, and he broke out in sweat after a while.

This is an honest man. Jia Huan couldn't help but want to laugh.

He couldn't help but ask: "Dog, I wonder if you have any skills?"

The dog scratched his forehead nervously and said, "Sir, I can make firecrackers. When I went out to work, I always made firecrackers."

"The black powder I fry is the best, and it never misfires. If you want to make firecrackers, I can fry the black powder for you."

Ok?
Black medicine?Black powder?

This guy is actually an expert at making black powder?
In Bactria, gunpowder had been used to make firecrackers, but that was all.

No one thought about using explosives to blow up mountains to open roads or make weapons.

The application of gunpowder seems to be much behind the Ming Dynasty in history.

But in this era, there was clearly the Ming Dynasty.

In short, I don't know where history went wrong. Jia Huan can only attribute it to the fact that this is a parallel world.

I have to say that Gou'er is quite a talent.

Jia Huan couldn't help but ask him: "Gouer, who did you learn this skill of frying explosives from?"

Gou'er said honestly: "I learned it from my father."

Jia Huan asked again: "How is your father's craftsmanship better than yours?"

Gou'er chuckled and said, "He was not as good as me. He didn't listen to what I told him, and he was killed by the bomb later."

Jia Huan: "..."

Both of these men are talented people.

Jia Huan asked again: "Gou'er, are you willing to follow me?"

Jia Huan wanted to take this guy away and let him study gunpowder.

After hearing what Jia Huan said, the dog stood up decisively, lay on the ground and kowtowed to Jia Huan several times.

Then he said: "It is my blessing that you, sir, like me. Is there any reason why I shouldn't do it? I am willing to do things with you."

Seeing how happy he was, Jia Huan couldn't help but nodded and said, "That's very good. Don't worry, as long as you work with peace of mind, you will have a bright future."
