Chapter 19 Julu Restaurant

The next day, the fifth year of Zhongping, on the fourth day of the fifth month, the weather was clear and there was a breeze.

Wen Chou and his group got up early to practice martial arts and rode their horses towards Julu County. They began their final preparations for the first time to visit the characters. With excitement, Wen Chou rode his horse on the official road, hoping to come to Tian Feng next step and see what this great strategist who was famous in later generations looks like?! Is he as "hard and offended" as the rumors, and can help his family create supreme achievements? All of this will be unveiled in the near future. How could he not be excited?!

The journey of forty or fifty miles arrived in a flash. Forty or fifty horses were riding by Wen Chou and others, moving their strong limbs. Not to mention a thousand miles a day, but a journey of three or four hundred miles a day could be easily reached. In just two or three hours, Wen Chou had skipped Pingxiang County and headed straight for Julu County.

At noon, Wen Chou and others had already penetrated the Julu territory and ran for an hour without stopping. They had already seen the Julu County, which was quite large. It was obviously much larger than Yang's County, and even Pingji County was not as good as the county and the prefecture was as majestic as the prefecture.

At this point, Wen Chou waved his hand and made everyone stop, looked away for a moment, and said, "Julu County is not far away, and it is also one of our primary destinations for this trip. However, we should not attract the attention of the people in the county, as it would hinder the purpose of our trip. So from now on, you will disperse and enter the county town every one or two hours, so that it will be easy to prepare for the search. Can you hear it clearly?!"

This was a serious and no one needed to explain this to his subordinates, but Wen Chou still explained it like this, which shows that Wen Chou attaches great importance to this matter. The soldiers who followed along naturally knew about Wen Chou's importance, and replied in unison: "I heard it clearly! Isn't it humiliating Wen Jun's life?"

Seeing this, Wen Chou took the lead in leading the Wen Ba and three cavalrymen to rush towards Julu County. In order to be less conspicuous, Wen Chou had already sent the soldiers to put away the armor and others. Even though they were staying for a while, the news would not be so fast. After all, Wen Chou and the others arrived quickly. It would probably take two or three days for ordinary news to come.

Soon, Wen Chou and his group came to Julu County and saw that the county was very tall, almost four feet long. Compared with the three feet of Pingji County, it was much taller. The county soldiers patrolled back and forth in a solemn and orderly manner on the female wall, which looked quite powerful. Even the guards at the city gate were much higher than those in ordinary county towns, but they were not very strict in searching the people.

It seems that this is the state that the county town should have. It is not as lazy as Yang's County. It can quickly react to emergencies and deal with them. However, in normal times, it is not bullying the head of Guizhou, which is what Wen Chou appreciates. From this, we can see that the county lord is a talent.

Wen Chou and others pretended to be merchants, entered the city, walked between the streets, and saw the houses in the city, and the crowds were full of prosperity. They were better than Pingji County, let alone Yang County. But they still did not meet what Wen Chou thought. This was also the advantage of Wen Chou’s time traveling through time in later generations, after all, they were quite knowledgeable!

Wen Chou first came to the most prosperous county and city in the county and found the most high-end inn to serve as a temporary place to settle down. There were many people in the city, so they naturally could not ride horses in the city, so they could only hand over the horses to merchants to guard them, and began their own way to search in the county.

Since it is a prosperous county, Wen Chou naturally needs to observe it carefully, which is of great reference significance for it. By the way, he can also collect a lot of information.

If we say that the fastest place to get information now is the wine shop that provides wine and food services to the people who come and go. The wine shop is a gathering place for people of all religions and all the information is also a hub for the spread of information. After Wen Chou asked the personnel, he went straight to the corner south of the county and the city, where the wine shop with the largest flow of people in the county.

Wen Chou came to the wine shop and saw a large attic. Next to the tall storefront, there was a big wine flag with the word "Wine Shop" written on it, which was simple and tight. I think it was very famous here and there was no need to make any more publicity.

Wen Chou and others entered the restaurant amid the waiter's greeting. The waiter immediately packed up a place for Wen Chou to sit for the five people. After ordering dishes and drinks. Wen Chou looked around the restaurant and saw: there were more than a dozen tables in the huge room. Although it was not very crowded, it was quite lively. Basically, they were all filled with people, including gossips with swords and swords, scholars wearing long robes and high crowns, merchants with frosty faces, and ordinary people from Guizhou. They all lived up to its reputation.

There is a staircase leading to the upper floor in the middle. According to Wen Chou's wishes, he had to go to the second floor. However, the waiter said that the second floor was full, so Wen Chou had to follow the waiter's arrangement and come to a corner to sit down. However, this location has an advantage, that is, you can observe every move of the entire restaurant, as long as Wen Chou is willing.

"Brother, do you think that Mr. Yuan Hao is really that powerful? It is far better than Jinyan and others?" Although Wen Chou has repeatedly emphasized the importance of Tian Feng, Wen Ba was still a little suspicious. After all, in his not very sound outlook on life, Wen Chou ranks first, and his father Wen Lie may not have the important position of Wen Chou in his heart. Furthermore, Jiang Xuan, who once existed as a think tank in the Taolin Army, was still second.

"Haha, Ziyong, you are young after all, and you have very little to see. Don't think that if we can disperse and fight off some bandits, you can underestimate the heroes of the world. Don't talk about how weak we are. In this world, there are many more brave and powerful cars than Jinyan's brother, and you should remember them deeply." Wen Chouyu said earnestly.

Although Wen Chou's voice was not loud, it was still thunderous in Wen Ba's ears. But he still didn't believe in his heart: "I dare not say much about wisdom, but if you want to talk about courage, you are a small person! If it is an ordinary situation, let alone you, you are the highest combat power in our clan!"

"As the difference mentioned, don't you see the Lin Family Lin Festival in the village? We didn't disdain it in the past, but his courage is indeed far better than that in the current situation! In the village, we can't be the leader, so how dare we call the heroes of the world!" Wen Chou said with a righteous expression.

"Can......"

......

Although Wen Chou was having a mixed education and explanation with Wen Ba, this does not mean that he neglected the surrounding environment. Although the missing person can get useful information at the first time, Wen Chou will not miss any opportunity.

"I heard that the county lord is going to open a warehouse and release grain to help refugees recently!"

"I have heard of it, and it is said that the food released this time is as much as 20,000 stones! It's enough to maintain the current porridge shed in the city for more than a month!"

"Moon more than a month? I'm afraid it may not be able to maintain it in half a month. Haven't you heard that a large number of refugees will come here today? That's tens of thousands!"

"Hey, in this world, we should say that our county lord is also wise and promising! Since he took office, he has restored the county to its current appearance in less than three years. If it weren't for this refugee incident, it would be possible that the glory of our county would be reproduced in less than a year."

"That is, since these refugees, according to the county magistrate's thoughts, they will definitely consume a lot of the storage in the county."

"Our county lord is so kind!"

......

This is a table of guests dressed by scholars. Their words show their admiration for the county monarch and their concerns about the future of the county town. For Wen Chou, he had the intention to meet this wise and promising county monarch. He thought that if he did not win Tian Feng's loyalty in the end, it would be good to be able to get the cooperation of this county monarch.

"I heard that many wealthy families in the county have also begun to provide relief to refugees?! Is it true?" said the Confucian scholar wearing a green cloth robe on the other table.

"I don't know if it's true, but some not-so-large families have already started to build porridge sheds outside the city!" Another person wearing a black robe on the table said firmly.

"Yeah, not a big family?"

"Yes, are they just those dozen families of scholars? They have never been too embarrassed even if they are just a little bitchy!"

"Oh, what you are talking about is Tian Jun, Wang Jun and others who live in the east of the city?"

"That's right, although they are not very rich, they are respected. I heard that the county lord is also very polite to them!"

Wen Chou was happy when he heard this: "Tian Jun, Tian Jun! But Tian Feng?" Although he was happy, he did not take the liberty to ask questions, but just continued to listen.

"Yes, especially Mr. Yuan Hao, I heard that the reason why the county magistrate has achieved such great achievements in the past two or three years is due to Mr. Yuan Hao's contribution!" This man showed his respect as he spoke.

"That's who is Mr. Yuan Hao? He has been an official in the court! Although he is unemployed now, he will definitely get up again!" Another person praised him and said proudly.

"Yes, what a pity, Mr. Yuan Hao is just too straightforward, otherwise he would not have been disgusted with the eunuchs in the court! I think today is also a high-ranking official who is more than two thousand stones!" Another man said with a little regret.

"Yes, yes! Alas." Another person echoed.

Hearing this, Wen Chou finally couldn't sit still. He got up and came to the table of guests, bowed and said, "I'm taking the initiative to disturb him, please feel guilty. I just heard the two gentlemen say "Mr. Yuanhao" and admire him very much. I wonder if you two would like to tell me about this gentleman's affairs?"
