Chapter 183 Really promising
"It has been snowing for so long that many people who have been robbed by bandits no longer have any food left at home. The court's relief food has been delayed, and the prices of various granaries in the city have also skyrocketed, with food prices rising more than ten times.
"At the critical moment, Lord Zhaocang, the governor of the county, sent his trusted aides to come to the rescue with grain, grass and cotton-padded clothes to save the people of Qingzhou from the fire and water. And these grain, grass and cotton-padded clothes were all brought from the family."
He looked excited, finished speaking in one breath, and cleared his throat:
"A high-ranking official like Mr. Zhao Cang is a rare person to come across in a hundred years. I have lived for more than sixty years, and the governors of Qingzhou County have changed several times. In the past, those county governors only knew how to make money and have fun, squeeze the people, and did not care about our lives. Only. This gentleman is so upright and upright that during times of famine, he took the initiative to dispatch food from his family to help the people."
Lin Xiaofan looked happy when he heard this:
"It is a blessing for us Qingzhou people to have a good official like Mr. Zhaocang in Qingzhou."
The county governor was a very upright official and was very helpful to his development. If the county governor is corrupt, bends the law, and bullies the weak, he will never sit back and watch a person with no background make a lot of money.
"Master Zhao Cang is here. Is he a member of the Zhao family in the capital?"
Lin Xiaofan opened his mouth to confirm.
If you are willing to save the people of Qingzhou, you must first have a heart for the world, and secondly, you must have a strong background. In his opinion, there were only big families like the Zhao family in the capital.
"Exactly. Could it be that, Xiaofan, you know the Zhao family in the capital?"
When Li Zheng talked about this, he suddenly became energetic.
"You know, the Zhao family in the capital is one of the eight major families in the capital. Thirty years ago, I went to the capital once, and I happened to meet a young master from the Zhao family. The scene when he was traveling was a sight to behold. I was young and ignorant at the time. He went up to ask for directions without hesitation."
Li Zheng was recalling what happened before. In his opinion, the Zhao family in the capital was a prestigious family, and ordinary people would not be able to come into contact with this level in their lives.
Lin Xiaofan touched his pocket, took out a token, and handed it to Li Zheng to look at.
The token is made of pure gold, with the character Zhao printed on the front and the character Keqing printed on the reverse. From the looks of it, it should be real.
"This is... the guest order of the Zhao family! Xiaofan, could it be that you... are you the guest of the Zhao family?"
Li Zheng's face was filled with disbelief.
"General Zhao Yue gave it to me before leaving, saying it was of some use."
Lin Xiaofan scratched his head. In Blue Star's ancient times, guest officials were people who had served as officials in their own country. As for what the guest minister does in this life, he doesn't know.
Seeing that Lin Xiaofan didn't understand, Li Zheng opened his mouth to explain:
"In every big family, there will be a group of disciples. Some of them are proficient in literature and provide advice to the family. Some of them are amazingly powerful and protect the children of the family.
These retainers are also divided into three, six or nine levels, among which the highest level is the guest.
All the guest ministers are talented people who are not bound by big families, and among the big families, they all have very high salaries.
All they have to do is help the family when it is in crisis. "
When Lin Xiaofan heard this, he also understood the value of the guest order.
Then he shook his body violently, and a token accidentally slipped out.
The token was pure gold, and Satoshi hurriedly leaned over to pick it up.
"This is... the guest order of the Jian family?"
Li Zheng was so frightened that he had a big mouth.
Looking at Lin Xiaofan, he saw that the latter still looked very indifferent.
Among the Qingzhou Army, only General Jianfeng can issue orders from the Jian family's guest. He didn't dare to think how much contribution Lin Xiaofan had made by receiving two guest orders at the same time.
He had served as a soldier for six years when he was young, and he also knew what the situation was like on the battlefield. Children like Lin Xiaofan who have never practiced martial arts and have read military books are usually frightened as soon as they go to the battlefield.
So he always thought that Lin Xiaofan would only serve as a minor official on the battlefield, or help out with ideas.
Now it seems that he was very wrong.
With these two tokens, Lin Xiaofan may have commanded more than one great victory, and his achievements made even generals like Jian Feng and Zhao Yue moved.
Li Zheng took a deep breath before digesting the information.
"Xiaofan, what great achievements did you make on the battlefield?"
"It's not like he did anything great. The night we left, General Jianfeng was surrounded by [-] people. I made some plans to rescue him."
"Jian Bai used the Lei Zhenzi I developed to kill two imperial generals and injure one."
"Advise the Qingzhou Army and build the Wengcheng, so that the city will fall ten days later and kill [-] to [-] enemy troops."
"There is also a way to establish a way to give the Qingzhou Army tens of thousands more troops, and at the same time wipe out the base camp opposite."
Lin Xiaofan thought about it while describing what he had done these days. Li De's eyes widened and he could even put a goose egg in his mouth.
This is not a great achievement. With the achievements you mentioned, it is not too much to ask General Jianfeng to give way.
"Xiao Fan, have you ever strived for any official title? Earl? Viscount?"
There was a hint of joy in Li De's eyes. When Lin Xiaofan made money, he never forgot the people in the village. If he had any official title, the whole village would be happy for him.
But what surprised him was that Lin Xiaofan shook his head in denial:
"I don't want an official title. The officialdom is muddy and the emperor is stupid. I don't want to be this official."
Hearing this, Li De was shocked and hurried out the door. He was relieved when he saw that no one was eavesdropping.
"Xiao Fan, don't say these words randomly!"
Lin Xiaofan saw Li Zheng's appearance and smiled softly:
"Uncle De, I understand. Except for you, I would not dare to say this to anyone else."
"Grumbling."
After not eating for a day, Lin Xiaofan's stomach made a sound.
"Uncle De, help me inform the villagers that they can come to work tomorrow. At the same time, give each family a job quota. I will come back to you when I am free in the future."
Lin Xiaofan confessed and prepared to leave.
"Well, go back early."
Li De walked all the way to the door, looking at the retreating figure with a relieved smile.
The child at the beginning has now grown into an adult in the blink of an eye. He suddenly became the guest of two major families.
In the future, Lijiazhuang will also flourish under his leadership.
I just don’t know if he still hopes to see that day.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and he coughed hard several times. As he got older and suffered some injuries on the battlefield before, he felt his body was getting worse day by day.
However, in this era when the average age of the people is only [-], he is very content to live to such an old age. However, he wanted to see the day when Lijiazhuang would flourish.
When Lin Xiaofan returned home, a table full of food had been prepared and everyone was waiting for him.
"Husband, come and sit down."
"Husband, come, have a piece of meat."
"Husband, this is delicious."
In just a few breaths, Lin Xiaofan's bowl was filled with all kinds of vegetables.
"Husband, I heard from Yanyan that Qingzhou was able to lose weight this time, thanks to your intervention."
"Husband, tell us the story quickly."
