open sea

Chapter 92
The shopkeeper's Bai was in a hurry, but Yan Qingyao, the servant, didn't go far at all, he just stood outside the wine shop.

The jug was not big, and nine military households drank six jugs of wine, which was not much at all. Chen Mu gave the shopkeeper more than two taels of silver, but he didn't want it. In the end, Chen Mu accepted the money with a straight face.

Chen Mu could feel that the shopkeeper really didn't want his money, not the false concessions that are common in later generations, but he still had to give it.

The words of Xiangshan county magistrate Zhou Xing made him realize that since he was promoted to Qianhu in Xiangshan, he has stepped into a new environment, which is not as relatively closed as Qingyuanwei.

Most of the time, everything about him is exposed to the sun.

The officials of the Ming Dynasty he saw before his eyes were corrupt and everyone was not ashamed of them; but the officials of the Ming Dynasty he saw before his eyes were also loyal to the country, and everyone treated each other with strictness.

When people get used to being lenient with themselves and treating others with strictness, whether intentionally or not, it will bring huge disasters to society.

At least from Chen Mu's point of view, when he worked in Xiangshan Institute, he had already entered the eyes of many people.

Some people expected him to do good deeds, perform military drills, and suppress Fanyi.

There are also those who expect him to do bad things so that he can be a record of merit for others.

Sometimes when things get better, the only ones who can sincerely congratulate you are your own.Human nature is inherently evil, and more insidious villains are watching eagerly, expecting you to rise up a tall building, and even more hoping that your building will collapse and fall full of mud.

But those are just spectators. The most hateful thing is that a small group of people will stretch out a leg waiting for a rabbit on your galloping track, and then say: Look, he fell!
Chen Mu didn't want to fall into embarrassment, so he had to be cautious.

For Chen Mu, the officialdom is a place of heroes and a place of prosperity.

However, the robes of civilian officials are embroidered with birds, and the robes of military officials are embroidered with beasts. Walking through the clothes and crowns of animals, it is not like a dragon's pool and a tiger's den.

Walking out of the Drum Belly Building, Chen Mu had already made up his mind.

He dealt with Yuandao: "Don't go back these few days, take two family soldiers to Xiangshan, ask the county magistrate Zhou Xing to issue an official document, and make a stop at the Qianhu Office to see the number of remaining troops. The main thing is to see if you can Infiltrate Haojing, see the situation there, and bring Zhengyan with you."

As Chen Mu said, he looked at Qi Zhengyan, stretched out two fingers and said, "You know the Japanese language, it's easier to deal with Fanyi, three things."

"How many soldiers, how many ships, how many ship guns, how many shore guns did Fanyi have in Haojing, where are the barracks, how high is the city wall, and the picture is drawn; find two translators who can speak both Fan and Chinese, A Ming man and a Fanyi; go to inquire about where Wang Shen will be imprisoned. If the life is not good, make money to serve him with good wine and food, and then try to clear the gate. When Chen comes back, he wants to visit .”

"On weekdays you live in the Qianhu House, but in January, Chen will come over."

The transfer of affairs in Qingyuan is not complicated. Although Bai Yuanjie will lose some help on the battlefield without his combat power, Bai Qianhu has always regarded him as the logistics staff who manages the guards, manages some farming, and manages the army. In the end, most of the battles still depend on his own battalion of barbarians.

Farming tools are available in Qingyuan, and there are more than a few military cities for farming, so there are not many places where he is really used.

The key is the footsteps. Although he is alone, the Chen family in Qingyuan is no longer alone. Most of the grooms, cooks and others will go with him, and the teacher, the soldiers, and the craftsmen must go with him. There are dozens of people , It's not a matter of riding a fast horse for two days.

Fu Yuan and Qi Zhengyan obeyed, Chen Mu turned his head and saw Yan Qingyao, a tomboy wearing a square scarf, looking at him eagerly with big eyes.

What is she staring at me for?
"Are you really a thousand households?"

Yan Qingyao's delicate face was full of distrust, and he looked at Chen Mu from head to toe.

Chen Mu followed her gaze and laughed himself. The knife on his waist was the most valuable all over his body. He was still wearing the cloth armor that had been worn for more than a year. Every accessory on his body looked nothing like it. A dignitary.

Not to mention Zhengqianhu with thousands of staff.

"I used to be Qingyuan Wei Zongqi, and Qianhu hasn't taken up the post yet."

Chen Mu smiled, didn't take it to heart, thought of running away from Yan Qingyao earlier, cupped his hands and said: "Mr. Chen didn't know your experience earlier, so don't be offended if you were abrupt."

But he couldn't help but not take it to heart - when he came back from Qingyuan, he was supposed to be in the Qianhu Office, people depended on clothes and horses depended on saddles, so he had to order decent clothes to wear.

Thinking of this, Chen Mu turned back to the wine shop, and asked the shopkeeper at the counter: "Shopkeeper Yan, which clothing shop in the nearby street does a good job, preferably the one that officials in Guangcheng like to go to on weekdays."

"Master Jun has never visited Guangcheng, I will take you there!"

Yan Qing was still racking his brains to think, Yan Qingyao was already behind him, "Ask around, I don't know about that shop on that street outside Guangcheng, so follow me!"

"Qingyao!"

"It's okay, fine." Shopkeeper Yan reprimanded, Chen Mu waved his hands with a smile, and pointed back: "Then you take me shopping."

For more than a year in the Ming Dynasty, he didn't even have a woman by his side, and now it's interesting to have a noisy little girl.After finishing speaking, Chen Mu turned back to Shopkeeper Yan and asked, "Please, Ling Ai, please lead the way for Chen, order the clothes, and Chen will send her back, is that okay?"

Is it possible?

Yan Qing is sure that there are hundreds of thousands of people who are unwilling, but he dare not refuse when the words come to his lips, and said: "Why don't Qianhu find someone else, Qingyao grows up on the street and speaks freely, and offending the small people of Qianhu can't bear it." Get up!"

Chen Mu smiled and said it was okay, Yan Qing obviously couldn't control Yan Qingyao, the little girl happily left the wine shop.

"What are you still doing in a daze, follow!"

The clerk in the store was still in a daze, so he was pushed out by Yan Qing, "Follow me, don't lose it!"

Chen Mu really didn't have any other thoughts. One thing was that the little girl was good-looking, but the key was that he found it interesting to be a talkative train driver.

The little girl on the road asked Chen Mu if she wanted to introduce to him what the shops outside Guangcheng do, and Chen Mu naturally agreed.

As a result, such a scene appeared outside the Feiyan Tower on the West Street outside Guangcheng: a handsome girl dressed as a servant happily introduced something to the tall and tall households beside her, and the banner officials and servants behind them, and of course the restaurant staff who followed were all red Standing with a straight face.

"This is the most famous building in Guangcheng. It's not dark yet, so it's not lively here. There are boats on the river at night, which is very beautiful!" I like to come here at night, others can’t come out without spending five taels of money, but if it’s you?”

The little girl pulled the square scarf, wrinkled her little nose and thought for a while, then smiled happily, "Maybe I can earn ten taels!"

Chen Mu felt a little regretful.

Why did he let this little train guide him in a moment of dizziness!

If Chen Mu was the original Chen Mu, he might not be able to understand these words, and he might be stupid and ask her why she still makes money, but how could Chen Mu not know what she meant!

"Let's go, let's go, what are you hanging around in front of someone's house in broad daylight, go to the tailor shop!"

　Reader, don't leave, let's cast a vote?
