Chapter 129 Winter is coming

The episodes of this poetry and prose drinking party are shocking countless scholars, and in addition to Zhang Ji, I was also surprised.

He was forced to do something and became a leader in a short period of time. There are both good and bad sides. The good side is that Zhang Ji knew that he was very capable and really wanted to do something. The bad side is that he was too close to the Cai family, which would have some side effects.

Will this guy be infected by the Cai family? Zhang Ji doesn't think it's true. After observing his behavior pattern, he is a vulgar development waiting for opportunities, and at the same time he has his own opinions and will not be easily convinced.

But this will affect his reputation to a certain extent, and it will easily be classified as a type of Cai family. However, this point is also a double-edged sword, and there will be a good side and a bad side.

"At this point, he doesn't need to rely on anyone, his situation has been opened up by himself."

Zhang Ji sighed. Now that I think about it, I was unable to give him the admission quota for the Taixue to him in the end. This is a bit regrettable.

Now it is completely unsuitable. I won’t say that if my father really wants to send this scholar from the Cai family to the Imperial Academy, my uncle Zhang Kegong will definitely jump.

Seeing Zhang Ji, he always stood here in a daze with a strange expression. Su Zaifang, Hezhi, Wang Fu and others surrounded him again, thinking of a sexual explanation about the embarrassing incident just now.

Then I know that Zhang Ji is not given face and turns around and leaves.

The three of them looked at each other, but they really couldn't imagine that Zhang Ji would have such a weird side...

In the study room.

Cai You twisted his beard and seemed to be pointing out, "It's very common to see what you encounter today. There are now and in the future. There is no need to worry too much."

Zhao Cheng nodded slightly, "Master Xie Zhizhou saved the siege."

Cai You felt that the biggest characteristic of this person was that he could speak, and asked with a smile: "What do you think about Zhu Xiao?"

Go ahead with big views!

Now it seems that this group of people who are harming the country and the people are "birds of feathers of a feather flock together" in advance and have a tendency to gather.

However, Zhao Cheng thought of the scene where Cai You criticized Wang Fu at that time. In addition to the fact that Lao Cai was more protective of Dong Jianwu's issue, he also showed that his virtue was to maintain stability. He really didn't like to do things and didn't like to cause trouble.

Given the nature of Cai You, if he asked this in the situation where the Zhu family and son of Yingfeng Bureau were setting, it means that he wanted to kill the Zhu family and create momentum and other excuses to deal with Zhu Xiao. But now the Zhu family and son of Yingfeng Bureau are rising in the sun, so he would definitely be against the point of asking this question.

After thinking through it, Zhao Cheng said: "Xiaoguan and Zhu Xiao don't have much contact, and there are some personal conflicts, but that doesn't matter. The matter about him needs to be advised by the magistrate."

Cai You nodded with a big laugh, "That's good, you are indeed smart enough, it's not time to mess with him in the Zhu family."

The relationship was specifically called Zhao Chenglai to maintain stability. When Cai You said this, he obviously had something to do, so he waved his hand and said, "Go, be busy with yours."

...

According to Cai You's spirit, he cannot conflict with people like Wang, Zhu Xiao for the time being.

However, in addition to being an official, Zhao Cheng is becoming more and more famous, with a negative reputation, but a positive reputation is also quite famous. At least everyone knows that Cai You supports Zhao Cheng for the time being, and Zhao Cheng, who is white, dares to argue with people like Wang Fu at Miss Cai’s poems and prose party.

It is not difficult to imagine that Zhao Cheng is a person who wants to do things, and now he has really got the identity and qualification to do things in the first step.

It is quite obvious that Liu Qishan had already understood the gap between the two to a certain extent earlier, and now he understood more clearly that it was entirely a cautious attitude between subordinates and leaders. He would come to see each other and ask for instructions every morning.

You are not afraid of hooligans, you are afraid of hooligans being cultured. Cultural hooligans are the most difficult to deal with when they have status.

Lao Liu never thought Zhao Cheng was a scholar. He killed Dong Jianwu in front of him, and finally left a calm sentence, "I will be responsible, you can handle the scene and the body."

In addition to these, as a county magistrate, he was also a big celebrity in front of Cai Zhizhou and Pei Zhixian County, which led to Zhao Cheng's current strong voice in the upper class. There is no explicit regulation, but the county yamen has almost formed a tacit understanding. Zhao Cheng is the "deputy county" in charge of work. Now, almost no one asks Zhu Xiao for most of the matters, and usually comes to ask Zhao Cheng for instructions.

If Zhao Cheng speaks, they will basically do it immediately, unless Zhao Cheng doesn't make a decision and needs to ask Lao Pei for instructions, they will go through the procedure and delay it.

Now, with Bai Chenxiang's perverted mobilization and execution, Yangshanzhai's defensive offensive has been basically completed.

So relying on the entire cement production capacity of the fire factory, all of which were supplied to Lao Chen. In addition, the production proficiency was improved, and now there are more than three tons of quantity per day.

This amount was not enough for later generations, but it was very fortified for this era. The official road from Zhoucheng to Yangshan became the busiest commercial route in Chizhou.

It also aroused Lao Pei's interest for the first time, allowing him to see the stabilization effect that Bai Chenxiang's tribe has taken on Guichi County.

It worked very well, and for this reason, a professional transportation team was born, absorbing nearly a hundred idle laborers to work on this line and earn freight. The staff structure is very simple, basically the people who were familiar with those who were led by Zhao Cheng when he built the canal, and who were quick to do things and had no jobs.

There are a group of traditional local tyrants and vassals of Zhu Xiao in Chizhou City. They are waiting privately to see Zhao Cheng's so-called industrial joke:

"I'm simply overestimating my ability. Now that cement is hyped up at such a high price, it has become a shortage of goods. At the moment when Chizhou is full of copycats, Zhao Cheng's high-profile trade is stupid and ignorant. It's only a matter of time before this line is targeted."

These private rumors are difficult to judge whether they are true or false.

In addition, the price of fur in Guichi County is gradually declining. This is also the credit of the cement transport team. In addition to transporting the cement produced by the White Agarwood Department, of course, there are also furs provided by the White Agarwood Department. When they leave the city, they will transport the grain, salt and clothing needed for the White Agarwood Department, etc.

Thanks to the fact that the Yangshanzhaizi's defensive offensive was basically completed and their personnel were further strengthened, it was equivalent to the fact that they now had more wealthy labor. As a result, the first batch of slingshot clusters have basically been formed, and have completely completed the first stage of fixed shooting range training.

In addition, Zhao Junshi's program was established, and the second group of people was organized to become "reserves" and trained on fixed shooting ranges. The first batch of long-range strike groups entered the mountains on a small scale and conducted the second phase of practical training, which was also equivalent to high-efficiency hunting.

Bai Chenxiang wrote a letter saying that the 100-person slingshot team was getting stronger and stronger. Every time he entered the mountain, he carried an empty basket with light clothes. When he came back, there were not many bullets left, but he was full of mountain goods, all kinds of wild vegetables, herbs, mushrooms, and prey.

Take it as for example only ten days since we last met, the slingshot team has killed two big insects (tigers). Well, the valuable tiger skin is considered useless, because both tigers are gathered into hornets' nests without exception.

But the tigers of this era are all treasures, including tiger bones, tiger teeth, tiger gall, tiger whip, and even tiger meat, which are all considered special medicinal materials.

Some of them can be replaced by herbs, while others cannot. In fact, even when the effects are similar, in the eyes of rich people, the value of animal-based medicinal materials is definitely much higher than that of plants. Just like beef is definitely as simple and simple as tofu.

In this way, the momentum and productivity of the white agarwood department are gradually growing.

There will definitely be conflicts in matters related to interests. There is no doubt that Zhao Cheng is also preparing for these things.

At this time, the second village was like the Hongshan Village at that time. Nearly a hundred people were slaughtered by Wang Xiu again, and the rest of the villages surrendered or dismissed or fled. As a result, Wang Xiu's troops' strength increased greatly. In the future, he would quickly incorporate all the counterfeit bandits in Chizhou, and it was conservatively estimated that it would not exceed one month.

Therefore, the Bai Chenxiang tribe, which refused to surrender, faced unprecedented pressure.

The rich merchants in Chizhou, mainly Zhu Xiao, were waiting for the end of this farce. Now most of them know that Zhao Cheng's gloves were Bai Chenxiang, and they couldn't survive this winter. The Bai Chenxiang tribe would only have two roads, and they would die in battle, and the results of construction would be taken away. Or surrender obediently and disbanded back to Chizhou City.

Surrendering and disbanding will not die, but it will become a political farce for County Magistrate Pei and Zhao Cheng. No matter how they are placed, it will be a joke.

Because those who surrender voluntarily will be lenient, but have no human rights, they will not apply the Zhao'an policy to give their origins. According to the nature of the Song Dynasty, Zhao'an also has threshold standards. The power that Chizhou is most likely to obtain Zhao'an preferential policies is Wang Xiu, who loves to kill and set fire! Not someone else.

If the Bai Chenxiang tribe disbanded and surrendered, the greatest possibility is to slap the Northwest Front as a whole and hand it over to Zhong Shidao to be responsible for the labor reform of this group of fugitive households. If they do not want to disband and surrender, and want to get the Zhao'an quota, then they must defeat Wang Xiu, who is very popular and no one wants to meet.

This is the simple jungle law, or the exam. It can be called a letter of fame.

Just as this speculation and onlooker, Chizhou's autumn harvest is coming, and overall this year is a bumper harvest, but this also means that winter is coming!

The situation also took a sharp turn for the worse.

The official documents of the Privy Council have arrived and are placed on the table of the county magistrate Zhao Cheng. It has the signature of the prime minister Zhang Kangguo, which clearly states that Wuwei Army will arrive in Chizhou within ten days.

This expresses a lot of meaning. One is that during the current period, Cai Jing's trust in his son Cai You has been further reduced. For example, he has no patience. Cai You used pigeon policies to solve the court's financial and copper mine crisis.
