Jiang Lili felt that the old man Hu Junshou was quite capable and smart, otherwise he would not have been able to create such an advanced weapon as the fire pole.
When Hu Junshou heard Jiang Lili's words, he paused holding his chopsticks. Then, he said with a playful smile, "Well, it's just that the job went wrong. I failed in my duty."
"I'm lazy to begin with, so I didn't bother asking for favors from anyone. I just came here to find a sinecure."
County Magistrate Hu put away the can of chili powder, wiped his mouth, and said, "Thank you all for your hospitality today. I'll be leaving first!"
"Oh, by the way, I still have to see how that villain is doing now."
The injured Liao Chengren had been carried into the woodshed.
County Magistrate Hu was still a little afraid that someone had died, after all, it was his firewood pole that went off.
After asking Jiang Lili for some herbs to treat Liao Cheng's wound, County Magistrate Hu walked out of the woodshed, a guilty look on his face. "How about this? I'll immediately ask the yamen runners to come to the village, put a sack on him, and take him away."
Just as he was about to leave, Xin Cheng stopped him and said, "Wait, Master Hu, are you willing to teach me how to make this fire stick?"
Hu Jun Shou glanced at him and said: "Second Master Xin, you are a disciple of Lu Ban. I know you."
You waved your hands: "Let him eat, let him eat."
Even though you and Master Liao hadn't chatted in a group before, you were still worried. "Leave a copy of the signal fireworks and horn for them. Remember to send the signal as soon as possible when you have nothing to do."
Zhao Chen looked at Wen Xiaomei's hurriedly leaving back and asked in a puzzled tone: "Who is that humble county magistrate?"
Mrs. Hu Chen of the Zhao Chen clan listened to Liao Dabao's words and pondered for a while: "Shu, Iron Smelting Bureau, surnamed Hu..."
Yang was left cursing, "That guy is really obsessed with researching mechanical creation. Knowing that Gui Maojun has a wife and children by his side, he rushed over to accompany them, right?"
Is that old man really that powerful? He's on your pirate ship now, and he's making a killing. A can of chili powder in exchange for an ancient expert in geological surveying.
Liao Dabao arranged a lot of self-defense items for Hu Junshou and his mother, such as pepper spray, electric batons, large chainsaws... He also asked Xiongying Liefeng to keep an eye on the village temple.
When Wen Hanzhi heard Hu Chen talk about Wen Xiaomei's past, he admired him even more: "How could such a powerful and corrupt official be exiled to Haizhou?"
Pinghou couldn't help but wonder, why did the monkey become so obedient all of a sudden?
Liao Dabao threw a peach to it, and it immediately clasped its fists in thanks. However, it did not eat it right away. Instead, it walked to Gui Mao with the peach in its hands and offered it to him with both hands, as if to express its apology.
Hu Chen listened to Jiang Lili's doubts and recalled the scene at that time: "The Duke's wife mentioned this person to you because that villain Yin Zhen was selected for a promotion and it is very unlikely that he will come to the capital. And that little sister Wen's son is of marriageable age."
You said that, but you still understood the insult of Xin Cheng's interest in the bad. "Sister Yin, thank you for your hospitality today. Come up and bring him some food tomorrow. You go back today and prepare some clothes for your thoughtful husband. With my personality, I'm afraid I won't stay outside the county magistrate's house."
When you were slowly climbing the mountain today, you didn't send the monkeys away and told us not to follow them. Who would have thought that Old Eight would follow us again?
"If you want to learn, come to my government office when you have time!"
When Liao Dabao heard Hu Chen's words and thought about how Wen Xiaomei looked when he first met her, he even dared to suspect that the two Gui Maojun were the same person.
Who among the officials of Dasheng didn't know about the Marquis of Zhaoping's mansion? Seeing such a loyal and righteous man stranded on a deserted island with him, the long-numbed heart of County Magistrate Hu felt particularly uncomfortable at this moment.
The macaque Lao Ba also realized Pinghou's hostility towards it. Before it climbed up from under the wall, it stood obediently on its back, grinning with its little mouth to force out a flattering smile.
Pinghou exclaimed, "Oh my God! It's strange that they say monkeys understand human nature!"
Liao Dabao told him everything he had heard: "You only heard from the yamen runners that Sister Wen originally worked at the Iron Smelting Bureau in Shu, in charge of smelting and casting."
Zhao Guimao and his wife went back with Xin Yan and his mother before Jiang Lili, while Liao Dabao and Xin Che stayed to accompany Hu Junshou and his mother. They only breathed a sigh of relief when the yamen runners sent by Wen Xiaomei carried Liao Cheng away from outside the woodshed.
After saying this, Lord Hu touched his belly and slowly walked away, fearing that Gui Maojun would say a few less words to him.
At the end, Gui Maoyi had completely connected the decadent and fussy Lord Hu with the famous villain Yin Zhen.
Gui Mao smiled and said, "Don't be polite with you, just go slowly!"
Pinghou was deeply moved by Liao Dabao's sincerity.
"You remember, when I was at a banquet with the Duke's wife in the capital, I heard that there was a supervisor in Shu named Yin Zhen who was in charge of the copper and iron smelting. He had outstanding political achievements and was a diligent and conscientious official. He was extremely rigorous and responsible when doing things, regardless of whether he was asleep or not."
Liao Dabao lectured Lao Ba: "Don't apologize to his mother any more, or he'll be in big trouble!"
Liao Dabao patted your shoulder, letting you relax and come up: "Sister Yin, don't take it easy. That monkey is now daring to hit people."
Jiang Lili was curious when she saw Gui Maojun using a fire stick to face the old man whose painting style was unique.
The Xin family father and son have been at the border for many years and know a lot about the personnel transfers in the capital and the south.
Yang's words made Xiaojia laugh, which quickly relieved the sad atmosphere.
Liao Dabao looked closely and found that it was the macaque Lao Ba.
You also find this matter very strange: "I don't know why I was banished to that place again, and I also want to see my wife and children."
Everyone sighed, but Xin Cheng's mind was completely focused on the fire. I cleaned up the broken dishes and said to Yang and Xin Yan, "Wife, son, you should go find Gui Maojun to learn from you now. They can continue eating. When you're full, go back with your brother and sister-in-law!"
If the fire pole made by the old man falls into the hands of your capable young lady, you know what effect it will have!
However, just as Liao Dabao and Xin Che were about to go back, they saw nothing coming down from under the wall.
"I guess she can't stand Haizhou's conditions, so she divorces him and his son is willing to come with her."
Yang guessed.
"What the hell? Why is the village so quiet today?"
"That Gui Mao improved conditions for skilled workers at the quarry and smelting company. He also predicted a mine collapse and, despite pressure from the imperial court, halted the project, preventing a small-scale mining disaster and saving hundreds of lives. He was honored with a plaque by the local people."
After saying that, I left like a whirlwind, and immediately went to catch up with Wen Xiaomei.
Ping Hou felt relieved when he saw the monkey. He quickly took out the self-defense electric baton that Liao Dabao taught him to use and held Hu Jun in his arms.
