With a plop, Guo Jia knelt at the door, her eyes bursting with tears.

Qin Lang couldn't help smiling when he saw this, motioned him to get up, and joked, "You were asked to be in charge of agricultural administration, and you secretly planted the land? It seems that the harvest is not bad?"

Guo Jia didn't expect Qin Lang to appear suddenly at this time. This was a scene he had thought about countless times.

At the beginning of the year, Qin Lang asked him and Xi Zhicai to be in charge of agricultural affairs. It was true that more than a dozen pairs of shoes were worn out, and his delicate feet, hands, and shoulders were now covered with thick calluses.

This year has been hard for him, he has never suffered this kind of crime in his life, and he wanted to put down the pick countless times, but in the end he persuaded himself and persisted until the harvest.

It was only when he saw the endless carts of grain being transported away that Guo Jia truly realized that all the sufferings he had suffered this year were worth it.

He has a different background from Xi Zhicai. The name Xi Zhicai is a humble name used by the lower class. Although he is also a scholar, his background is very low.

Although Guo Jia was not from a big clan like Xun Yu and Sima's family, he was also a descendant of a small rich clan.

Xi Zhicai was able to quickly adapt to dealing with crops, but it took him a long time to wear off his inner arrogance.

The moment I saw Qin Lang just now, countless sorrows and sorrows welled up in my heart at the same time. The future that I thought was dim suddenly saw a light, and it seemed that I no longer needed to do hard work.

After getting up, Guo Jia, who was slightly choked up, quickly calmed down, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and picked up the big sweet potatoes and potatoes on the ground one by one.

He said proudly and proudly: "My lord came by a coincidence. This is a baby grown in Fengxiao's own field. It is big, delicious and hungry. Come, come, I will bake it for my lord..."

Guo Jia babbled while burying sweet potatoes and potatoes in the brazier, feeling extremely happy.

Qin Lang was curious why he didn't see Guo Jia after seeing Xi Zhicai, but now that he saw him, he was quite relieved.

The former slut is gone forever, and it will be the pillar of the country in the future.

Chapter 064 My Surname is Chen

In the Palace of Civil and Military Affairs, Qin Lang and Sun Bin had a very happy conversation, and they hadn't seen each other for more than half a year. The three of them had a lot to say in public and private.

Guo Jia said that the reason why Xi Zhicai changed his sex was because he fell in love with a widow who planted mulberry, and was about to take her home at the beginning of the new year.

After being shaken by the scandal, Xi Zhicai immediately countered that Guo Jia's sex change was also because he fell in love with the daughter of an Orion family. In the past half a year, he has been running mountains in addition to farming, otherwise how could he be so strong.

Qin Lang found it interesting that the two former rascals had so much perseverance to turn their backs, and was curious about the identities of the two women, and what kind of magical power they had that could hold these two boats floating in the world of mortals.

This kind of story with a nasty accent is harmless when men get together, and they all pass it by laughing.

Who knew that when Guo Jia was happily describing Sang Nu's figure, a stunning figure suddenly appeared at the door.

As soon as Guo Jia saw the person, he immediately shut his mouth, Xi Zhicai also lowered his head and gnawed on the sweet potato, Sun Bin closed his eyes and rested his mind, as if he had nothing to do with himself.

Qin Lang was a little puzzled, the attitudes of the three of them changed too quickly.

Looking at the small stove at the door, the woman in a snow-white fur jacket, her face is not stunning, but she is also an outstanding beauty, her facial features are exquisite, her skin is whiter than snow, and her rouge lips are neither red nor light, just right.

He has a slender figure, with obvious curves but not exaggerated, three thousand black hair tied quietly behind his head, refreshing and capable, and there seems to be a kind of chivalry that is looming.

On the whole, this woman's temperament is dusty, a little arrogant, her expression is cold, and her eyes give people a very complicated feeling.

There is condescending scrutiny, disdain and contempt, and a sense of loneliness that is high and out of place, and there is a trace of well-hidden sadness between his brows that flickers on and off.

The most important thing is that Qin Lang felt that the other party was a deeply hidden practitioner, and he was definitely of the extraordinary skill type.

Seeing the woman not leaving at the door, Sun Bin pretended to close his eyes to rest his mind, and then he smoothed things over and introduced, "My lord, let me introduce to you. This is one of the teaching assistants of our academy. His surname is..."

Before Sun Bin finished speaking, the woman bowed slightly to Qin Lang, parted her red lips, and said indifferently, "The city lord is polite, my surname is Chen, my name is Weixiong, and I am from Beiliang. Out of curiosity, I stayed and worked as a teaching assistant in the academy for the time being, wanting to experience the customs of Qinzhou, and to see more about the development of Qinzhou. If you bother the city lord, Wei Xiong will come back later."

Chen Weixiong?Why did Qin Lang feel that this name sounded a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.

A woman with a prosperous face and a unique talent, with this name, let alone quite appropriate.

Qin Lang smiled and said: "It's not a problem, but I came here suddenly and disturbed the normal work of the academy. Basically, I have already understood something. If Mr. Sun Bin has any opinions and suggestions, you can go to the mansion to find me, and you won't sit down any longer." Well, I have to go somewhere else."

After Qin Lang finished speaking, he got up and left. Chen Weixiong stood at the door and did not dare to move. When Qin Lang passed by, the bamboo handle of the small stove in her hand was instantly crushed.

Although it was well hidden, Qin Lang still noticed it.

Qin Lang, who had already passed by, suddenly stopped, leaned back slightly, approached Chen Weixiong's ear and whispered: "The stove is very hot, be careful."

After saying that, Qin Lang laughed and left, leaving behind Chen Weixiong who was covered in cold sweat and almost collapsed at the door.

Seeing this, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, who were following Qin Lang, wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. Holding back their breath, they rushed out of the door and quickly caught up with Qin Lang who had gone away.

Xi Zhicai: "The lord is mighty, this girl is very good at filming, and Guo Jia and I have suffered a lot, this tone is really cool! The lord just gave her a look, and she was scared, hahaha."

Guo Jia: "My lord is domineering, you don't know, this Northern Liang barbarian is very powerful, don't look at her as cold as water on the outside, but she actually knows kung fu, purely pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and there are many subordinates and Zhicai here after harvest Being bullied, this time I'm really relieved."

Qin Lang snorted, and asked back, "How powerful can a weak woman be?"

"Hey! My lord, it's not that I want others to destroy my prestige. Don't look at this woman's coldness like everyone owes her money. She is at least at the level of a national player. Feng Xiao and I can't win even if we take turns. Mou is not someone who waits for idle people."

Xi Zhicai was full of compliments, Qin Lang was a little tired of listening, and asked Guo Jia: "What does Feng Xiao think of this person?"

Guo Jia didn't answer in a hurry, and thought for a moment before saying: "My lord, this woman's identity is unknown, and she has extraordinary skills and a good strategy. Liang is officially bordering, so it’s okay.”

Qin Lang hummed and asked Sun Bin next to him, "Who recommended her?"

Sun Bin understood what Qin Lang meant, and replied cautiously: "No one recommends her. She was originally a student during the trial at July Academy, because she is intelligent and has unique insights into things. In addition, her knowledge is wide and deep. Not bad, Mr. Jiang saw that he had the talent of Jingwei, so he was promoted to assistant teaching assistant, responsible for managing the students' daily life."

When Qin Lang heard that he was Jiang Ziya's favorite candidate, he naturally had no problems, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Qin Lang welcomes such strange people to come to Qinzhou, and the more they come, the better. As long as they don't come to cause sabotage, Qin Lang will not object or stop them.

When he came to the gate, Qin Lang stopped, turned around and looked at Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai: "After the year, you will report to the military adviser Kong Ming. There will be arrangements for specific matters after the year. Since there are people you like, you can do it when you are free at the end of the year." After finishing the matter, tomorrow I will ask someone to send five hundred gold to each of you, it is considered as gift money, you can start a family and start a business, you have to get married before you can start a business, understand?"

When Guo Jia and Xi Zhi heard the words, they bowed in gratitude ninety degrees, and they didn't get up until Qin Lang disappeared on the street.

When they came to Qinzhou, they had already spent all the money they had with them. If they hadn't had official duties this year, they wouldn't have to pay for their own expenses, and they would have a place to live. The two of them really didn't know how to survive.

It's all right now, with a reward of five hundred gold, you can buy a small courtyard first, and then marry back the woman you like, and you will have something to do again in the first year, and you don't have to live in the academy anymore.

Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai embraced each other excitedly, encouraging each other to make a career out of it.

At this moment, Chen Weixiong was sitting alone in the empty Wenwu Hall, even if the door was opened, the cold wind was blowing, and the inner lining that had just been soaked in cold sweat was as cold as an ice shell.

Suddenly meeting the city lord with an excellent voice, Chen Weixiong was first surprised by the opponent's age, and then felt a strong coercion.

That aura of heavenly power overwhelmed her, so she didn't dare to act rashly, so she stopped at the door, neither entering nor retreating.

The key point is that Qin Lang seems to have known her little secret, but everyone is human, and she has achieved some success in the way of swordsmanship, so why should she be crushed to death.

She refused to accept it, but she didn't dare to make mistakes, let alone make any changes, because she just felt a strong murderous aura, and life and death might only be a matter of a second.

Chapter 065 Wind and Cloud Tower

After leaving the academy, Qin Lang was not in a hurry to go to the staff mansion, but found a very popular teahouse for a sneak break.

"Dear guests, there is a chic elegant room on the third floor..."

As soon as Xiao Er came up to meet him, Dian Wei stood in front of Qin Lang, took out a gold ingot of five taels and threw it over, and ordered, "If you have any good tea and food, go ahead and lead the way."

There are a lot of rich people in Fengyu City, and this is the first time Xiao Er met a rich man who drinks gold ingots for tea, and immediately changed into a flattering expression, bowing in front of him to lead the way.

The scale of the teahouse is not small, there are more than 20 square tables on the first floor alone, the second floor is an open teahouse, and the third floor is a closed private room.

It was noon at this time, and the teahouse was already full of people. The lobby on the first floor was already full, so that there were only one or two vacant seats on the second floor.

Following Xiao Er upstairs, Qin Lang asked curiously, "Is your family's business always so good?"

Xiaoer heard the words and quickly replied respectfully: "Your guest must be a businessman who came to Fengyu City to do business. It is the right time to come to our Cuiwei Building."

"how you said that?"

On the third floor, Xiao Er opened the private room named Cuishan, pushed open the window and said, "Look, guest officer, the Izumo Academy is diagonally across the hundred steps, and our Cuiwei Building can be counted on the Izumo Street. On the [-]st, from the opening of the academy to the present, our business has not been bad. Now that it is deep winter, the popularity will naturally become more prosperous. It is not yet afternoon. If you come half an hour late, the private room on the third floor There will be no empty seats.”

"Oh? It seems that your family is the only one on this street?" Qin Lang stood in front of the window and took a look and joked.

"Isn't that the only one?" Xiao Er pointed to a six-storey building across the street closer to the academy and said, "Dear guest, look at that Fengyun Building, that's the best place on Izumo Street. But it's a restaurant, not as elegant as ours, each has its own advantages, if you want to drink, let me know, my old cousin is running there, and I can reserve a good seat for you in advance."

Qin Lang found it interesting when he heard the words: "Such a big restaurant is also overcrowded? Do you still need to make a reservation?"

Xiao Er thought to himself that this distinguished guest must have never heard of the name of Fengyun Tower, and the opportunity to make money is in front of him, so he has to seize it.

"It's not a small nonsense. It's a feature of Fengyun Tower. Any scholar with ideas can express his aspirations and views on practical issues on the Fengyun Terrace in the lobby on the first floor. They can play chess, debate, and compete. As long as you don't accept it, you can challenge it on the spot, although the small ones don't understand, the excitement is really lively, and the reputation is big."

Looking at the prosperous street scene outside the window, Qin Lang asked, "So lively?"

Seeing the fish taking the bait, Xiaoer added fuel and said, "Have you been to Denggao Street next door?"

"I haven't been there before, do you have an explanation?"

"Dear guest, you really have to go there. That street was originally named Shizi Street because a staff mansion was built. It is rumored that as long as a scholar can enter the mansion, he can be a county magistrate at least. If we poor people can go in, then It just soared into the sky, so the folks privately renamed it Denggao Street."

"So there is such a saying, what does that have to do with Fengyun Building?"

Xiao Er took out three teacups from the table and put them in a straight line, pointed to the teacup in the middle and said, "This is Fengyunlou, just sandwiched between the Academy and the Staff Office, and it is also a restaurant, plus the Fengyuntai set up, no matter Scholars and chivalrous men from various prefectures who have traveled, or academy students, or future adults who have already entered the bureaucracy, all like to gather here. This grand scene can be said to be the only one in our Qinzhou. The small ones look at the status of the distinguished guests. Would you like to arrange a private room to see the demeanor of our Qinzhou scholars?"

Qin Lang thought for a while, and canceled his plan to go to the staff mansion. As long as he appeared in the staff mansion, his identity would be exposed naturally, but it didn't meet his expectations.

Ask Dian Wei to throw Xiao Er a gold ingot of ten taels and a silver ingot of ten taels and said grandly: "Then I want to see the demeanor of famous people in Qinzhou, please book me the best elegant room." between."

Xiaoer weighed the gold and silver ingots in his hand, smiled happily, and immediately bowed to go out, shouting: "Cuishan luxury guest, top-grade hospitality~"

Following Xiao Er's yelling, in a short while, more than a dozen waiters came in with all kinds of exquisite tea break cakes. Everything was ready, and Xiao Er also came back from Fengyun Building, and respectfully handed over a piece of hollowed out cake with excellent workmanship. wooden sign.

"Dear guest, please take it well. This is Fengyun Building's Wind and Cloud Card. Hold this card in the evening and you will be able to travel without hindrance. The best Qingyun Yajian has been reserved for you. The small one is right outside the door. If you need anything, you can order it. "

Qin Lang waved his hand, Xiaoer took a few steps back respectfully before leaving the room, and gently closed the door, holding ten taels of silver ingots in his hand, thinking that he would have to find a tailor to sew some new jackets for his mother when he returned home at night Happy Chinese New Year.

In the private room, Qin Lang was playing with the wooden carving card in his hand. The workmanship was exquisite and the materials were exquisite. It seemed that Fengyun Building had a lot of background.

Qin Lang coughed twice toward the door, and immediately a guard in plain clothes opened the door and came in. After closing the door, the man knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists respectfully, and said, "My lord, what do you want?"

"Hua Tian, ​​get up, sit down and drink tea, and talk slowly."

Yu Huatian got up quickly, without dragging his feet at all, sat at the table, first filled Qin Lang's tea, then Dian Wei's, and finally poured half a cup himself.

Qin Lang ate a few melon seeds, took a sip of hot tea, and said slowly, "Have you checked this Fengyun Building?"

Yu Huatian wanted to stand up and answer, but Qin Lang waved his hand to stop him: "Be casual when no one else is around, and treat it as small talk."

"Yes, my lord." Yuhuatian adjusted his state, and then said leisurely: "Reporting to my lord, the owner of Fengyun Building is called Mrs. Bai, and she is from Longcheng, Zhongzhou. It is said that she is a widow. % of the pearls are in her hands, she is quite famous in the business world, she has properties in almost every state, besides doing business, she also resells news, but she is very safe in Qinzhou, and Master Di and I have never caught it , and never moved her."

When he heard that he was from Longcheng, Zhongzhou, Qin Lang immediately became cautious. He has been in this world for so long, and Yuhuatian's Liulichang has been opened in 36 states, but he can't enter Zhongzhou.

According to Yuhuatian's detailed report, the border of Zhongzhou is heavily guarded, and non-Zhongzhou people are not allowed to enter.

The unknown is what makes people fearful. It seems that it is necessary to mediate with this woman. Even if it can't be used for oneself in the end, it must not be an enemy.

"As long as the other party does not act excessively, don't bother with other people's normal operations. For this level of meticulous work, it will either not move. Once it moves, it will be absolutely disastrous. Strict monitoring, two special teams will be formed to work in rotation. Don't let go of any clues."

"Subordinates take orders!"

After giving orders, Qin Lang lay comfortably on the couch and asked Dian Wei to open the door, just in time to hear the storyteller on the first floor reading the final poem.

"The horse is thin, has long hooves, and is fat,

The old couple slept and fought over the kang,

The old man wants to sleep in the bed,

My wife is dead for nothing, but she refuses to let her go.

The old man said I picked the firewood,

My wife said I burned the kang,

The old man said that he prefers to sleep, prefers to sleep, prefers to sleep,

My wife said no, no, no, no,

The old man picked up the ashes rake,

The wife picked up the rolling pin,

Ping-pong-pong till dawn,

Very good hot kang,

No one fell asleep. "

After the storyteller read the opening poem, he looked left and right, and the scene continued to cheer.

Hearing Xingmu's crisp sound, the storyteller said loudly: "Today, I will talk about the grievances and hatred between Jinlian Yinlian and Xiaofeigu..."
