open sea

Chapter 86
The first year of Longqing passed away with the sound of firecrackers. There were firecrackers in the Ming Dynasty, but there were no firecrackers in Qingyuanwei.

Master Chen Jun put a car with a hundred tigers running together in the forest on the New Year's Eve, and it was really exciting.

Three or five days ago, Deng Zilong bid farewell to Chen Mu and went back to the Guangzhou government. The state government gave him an order to take office after the next year, so he could only hastily end his trip in Qingyuan and prepare to take up the post of Deputy Qianhu.

However, looking at Chen Zongqi's life in Qingyuan these days made him misunderstand his usual perception. Deng Zilong who left Qingyuan seemed to be full of confidence.

Probably because Wei Jun is not as miserable as others say.

Chen Mu felt that he would probably be disappointed. Not everyone met such a good boss as Bai Yuanjie like him. If Zheng Qianhu was a fool like Zhang Yongshou, Deng Zilong would suffer in the future!

In winter, even in the southern part of Guangdong Dusi, Chen Mu obviously felt that it was getting colder every year.

People explained that one of the reasons for the death was the arrival of the Little Ice Age. If Chen Mu remembered correctly, the beginning of the Little Ice Age was now.

Years later, Bai Yuanjie and Zhang Yongshou came back after leaving Qingyuan for more than two months.

They were beaming, and they didn't look like they had encountered setbacks. At least Zhang Yongshou didn't chop trees and cut off his knives like he was angry at the state government last time.

Of course, it is also possible that the old tree outside the city of Guangzhou was cut down. Who can stop Mr. Zhang with his nature?

"Chen Erlang, this one is already Bai Qianhu!" Pushing the cup and changing it, Zhang Yongshou was very proud, and then patted himself on the chest, raising his face with pride, "Not only Zhang, but also because of Shi Shanxia Write down a merit, pass Zhenfu, and go straight to Qingcheng deputy thousand households!"

After all, it seemed that Chen Mu was afraid of thinking too much, so he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Zhang didn't grab your official position, one thousand households have two deputy thousand households!"

Bai Yuanjie also nodded with a smile, then frowned and said, "But Chen Erlang, you may not be able to be the Deputy Qianhu."

As Bai Yuanjie spoke, he raised his wine glass and made a respect to Chen Mu, which shocked Chen Mu!
When he dealt with Deng Zilong and Zhang Yongshou, he never felt cramped. Even though they were higher officials than himself, firstly, he felt a sense of superiority. energy.

But Bai Yuanjie was different, not only his superior, but also a superior or senior whom he recognized from the bottom of his heart.

Like his guide in this world.

Chen Mu quickly picked up the wine glass, smiled at Bai Yuanjie, "You don't have to do this for a thousand households, even if it's just a hundred households, with you on top, Chen has no complaints."

It is not easy to be promoted, especially when I witnessed Deng Zilong's meritorious deeds but was promoted secretly.

Although some disappointment was unavoidable, Chen Mu was still able to accept it and asked, "Hundred households?"

call.

Master Chen took a long breath, he knew it would not be so easy to get promoted...

"Hahaha!"

"Ha ha!"

With a sullen face, Zhang Yongshou clapped his hands on the table, and couldn't hold back his exaggerated smile. He pointed at Chen Mu and said to Bai Yuanjie, "Hahaha, Jingchen, did you see that? Said he has no desires, hahaha!"

Bai Yuanjie also raised her head and laughed loudly, but she was not as comfortable as Zhang Yongshou. After laughing at the end, she waved her hand and said to Chen Mu: "You may not be able to become a deputy thousand household, because your achievements are enough to be promoted to a regular thousand household. Go to the Ministry of War and send it back, most of it has been sent back to the capital now, and you should be promoted to a noble in a few days!"

"If you're lucky, you might be able to make up for Qingyuanwei Xiaqianhu's main job. Even if you're unlucky, the two of us at the capital will make good connections for you, at least at the fifth-rank Qianhu level to serve as deputy Qianhu or palm print test Thousand households."

After Bai Yuanjie finished speaking, Zhang Yongshou smiled and complained, "Turn around, after receiving the official seal, you invite me and Jingchen to go to Yanguifang to have a good time, we both broke our legs because of your business, the chief of Beishan The meritorious service was originally Jingchen, he thought that you should have the first meritorious service, so he gave you the first meritorious service—who knows, I heard that after the meritorious service was recorded, Wang Rulong, the general of Huainan Road, gave you the first meritorious service in Xinjiangnan, hey !"

"If we had known this, what effort would we have to make? You have killed so many battles by yourself, and led the general banner army to kill more than 490 first-level merits. The first merits reported by him are enough for you to be promoted to deputy thousand households." .”

Zhang Yongshou made a dejected look on purpose, and sighed wryly: "It's all right now, you and Jingchen are both on top of Mr. Zhang, let's talk to you first, and then I will say no courtesy when I see you later, or I will give you Chen Second Lord, please give me one!"

Chen Mu stopped talking.

Bai Yuanjie didn't say anything to him. He helped him from the beginning to the end, and let him do whatever he wanted in Baihusuo. From Heiling to Shishan, he remembered everything.

He raised his wine glass and respected Bai Yuanjie: "People's hearts are flesh, no one is a stone, brother, thank you!"

All in one drink.

"Hey, Bai Jingchen is your elder brother, am I not?"

Chen Mu smiled and filled his wine glass again, raised his glass to Zhang Yongshou, and said with a smile, "Why not, brother, thank you!"

At the same time, in his heart, Chen Mu said to himself: It's over.

The story about Zhang Yongshou in Hei Ling wanting to snatch his own head has been overturned.

This is a muddled debt, Zhang Yongshou once wanted to cause him to be blocked by Bai Yuanjie, Shishan he drove Zhang Yongshou to charge once, even though he was in danger but he was rescued, this time Zhang Yongshou ran for him and he paid off the debt.

Turn the page, be an acquaintance, start again.

"Well...you don't have to be so solemn, just remember Zhang's goodness in your heart!" Zhang Yongshou responded generously, and then posted a cheap sentence, and then sighed: "Oh, it's really from Fujian. The battle is too short, otherwise the three of us can make another contribution, and Jing Chen may have the actual teaching of commanding colleagues!"

Master Zhang is also addicted to fighting.

How many soldiers are left in hand!

"Fujian, is it also at war?"

Chen Mu's heart suddenly seized - Shao Tingda went to Fujian for two months, and he still hasn't replied!

"The governor of Fujian wrote a letter to open the switch, and the location was chosen in Meiling, Zhao'an. Zhao'an is the hometown of the pirate Zeng Yiben. He just surrendered at the beginning of the year, gathered the remnants of the great Japanese pirate Wu Ping, gathered tens of thousands of people, and committed another crime in a blink of an eye. Killed the Chenghai garrison, kidnapped the county magistrate, set fire to the county town, and sailed into the sea."

Zhang Yongshou felt sorry for him, "The waves on the sea are high and the wind is raging, the three of us won't be able to do battle."

Zhao'an is very close to Guangdong, and there is still a distance from Yuegang. Chen Mu is less worried. Shao Tingda is taking the road to Shaozhou Prefecture in the north. He is going to Yingde County Nursing Home to take a baby back to his hometown. So, at least there should be no soldiers on the way to Yuegang.

"Hey, Chen Erlang. I discussed it with Jing Chen. This time, if His Majesty issues an order to allow people to smuggle things in the world, let's get a few ships and send people to sea to make some money!" Zhang Yongshou smiled and stretched out his hand. , "You also set out a boat?"
