The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 1004

[Chapter 1004 Borrowing Someone]

Fang Xiu looked at the prefect of Jinzhou with a faint smile on his face and asked, “If I ask you to recruit troops, what should you do so that you can recruit more troops?”

“This” The prefect of Jinzhou was startled when he heard this question.

He lowered his head and thought carefully.

After thinking for a moment, he came up with a suitable method and said, “Sir, if the lower official is responsible for this matter, he will definitely be promised a large profit! As the saying goes, under heavy rewards, there must be brave men, and the same is true for conscription.

There are too many merchants in Jinzhou Prefecture, and the people are driven by the importance of profit over righteousness. Only by using profit can they be impressed.”

Fang Xiu nodded when he heard this.

The prefect of Jinzhou is indeed not a freeloader. It is obvious that he has thought carefully about this matter.

At present, it is true that only by making huge profits can it be possible to realize the planned plan.

But the problem is that the money itself is in short supply!

Fang Xiu had a thoughtful expression on his face, and looked at Zhao Ziping beside him, and then at the prefect of Jinzhou.

Suddenly he remembered what Zhao Ziping said yesterday. His uncle was the prefect of Jinzhou. Doesn’t it mean that

a faint smile appeared on Fang Xiu’s face. He looked at the prefect of Jinzhou in front of him and said leisurely: “My lord, I am The officer wants to ask you to borrow someone, is it possible? “

Borrow someone?”

I should be talking about the escaping garrison soldier, right?

The prefect of Jinzhou did not hesitate at all, waved his hand and said: “Your Excellency is the special envoy of Duke An. Now that you have come to Jinzhou Prefecture, the affairs of Jinzhou Prefecture are yours to have the final say. Not to mention borrowing someone, that is. I have nothing to say to my subordinates about borrowing this Jinzhou government office. “

The special envoy of Duke An? “

Fang Xiu was slightly startled when he heard this.

When did you become Duke An’s special envoy?

Immediately, seeing the expression of the Jinzhou magistrate, I realized that he didn’t know his identity at all, and just relied on some information he knew to deduce that he was related to An Guogong.

Fang Xiu was a little curious, what would be the reaction of the Jinzhou magistrate if he knew that he was An Guogong?

But he did not reveal his identity, just smiled, neither admitted nor denied, just said: “I The person you borrowed is the famous Mr. Zhao in Jinzhou Prefecture.” Seeing that

Fang Xiu did not deny his identity, the Jinzhou magistrate breathed out slowly. Fortunately, he was not wrong.

Otherwise, if you collide with this adult, you will be doomed.

Thinking of this, he was slightly startled when he heard Fang Xiu’s words again. The famous Mr. Zhao in Jinzhou Fucheng.

Why hasn’t he heard of it?

The magistrate of Jinzhou looked at Fang Xiu with confusion and asked: “I am stupid, I really don’t know that there is a famous Mr. Zhao in Jinzhou Prefecture.”

Fang Xiu said with a smile: “This Mr. Zhao claims to be the prefect. My lord, your nephew, Lord Magistrate, you are his uncle, he seems to be called Ziping, why? Haven’t you heard of it, Lord Magistrate?” When

the Magistrate of Jinzhou heard the word Ziping, his expression changed, and it could be said that he was very ugly. .

He looked at Fang Xiu, sighed heavily, and said: “Xiaoguan knows that the unsatisfactory thing must have done something ridiculous and let you see it. I

admit that I was at fault and didn’t take care of it properly .”

As a junior in the family, I am willing to accept any punishment.”

Fang Xiu had a faint smile on his face when he heard this.

It seems that the prefect of Jinzhou still knows what kind of virtue his nephew is!

“Master Magistrate, you misunderstood.” Fang Xiu waved his hand and said with a smile: “I am not being sarcastic. Although Zhao Ziping has some minor problems and likes to bully others, he is not rotten to the core yet. In short, he is just a person who has not yet He is just a prodigal son who has turned around.

Just now, I saw him standing in front of this notice, reading it to the people. As a scholar, it is really good for him to have such an awareness.” When the prefect

of Jinzhou heard this, he said

His face turned red.

Shameful, really shameful!

How can I still not understand my nephew?

Just him, the scholar?

If he can be regarded as a scholar, then there is probably no one in the world who is not a scholar!

It’s nothing more than a saying I heard some time ago: Everything is inferior, only reading is superior.

I felt that reading was the highest honor, and started to use reading to flaunt myself, nothing more. He would be humiliating himself if he participated in

those restaurants, brothels, and poetry societies

. Only at this city gate, facing a group of illiterate and rough farmers, could he find his sense of superiority as a scholar.

That’s all.

“My lord, this nephew of Xiaguan is really rotten wood. The reason why he is here is not for the people, but just to show off that he is a scholar. It is ridiculous to say it, but this nephew of Xiaguan has a good nature.” This is also because the subordinates are negligent in discipline.

If you want to find a helper, there are still many talented people in Jinzhou Prefecture. You can borrow them.”

The prefect of Jinzhou handed over his hand. said.

After hearing this, Fang Xiu waved his hand and said leisurely: “What I need is not a smart person. I just value your nephew’s true temperament. Please rest assured, Lord Magistrate, I am not a smart person.” What I want to do to your nephew is not to use him against you.

I just think this person is interesting. He might be able to help me and help me solve some things that I can’t come forward to do. , that’s all. “

Oh, that’s it.

When the prefect of Jinzhou heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

As I said before, many of these things cannot be done by people on the stage, and the gangsters must come forward.

His nephew is not good at studying, but he is good at martial arts. Hanging out with some gangsters on weekdays can indeed help him a little.

So, he cupped his hands and said, “Since your Excellency said so, I would like to thank you for your kindness on behalf of your unlucky nephew.”

“It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter.” Fang Xiu waved his hand.

Immediately, his eyes looked at one place.

There, a young man wearing a green shirt and holding a folding fan was choosing rouge in front of a rouge stall.

However, if you observe carefully, you can see that his eyes never left Fang Xiu and the prefect from the beginning to the end.

Fang Xiu looked at Zhao Ziping.

Zhao Ziping happened to be looking at him too.

The two people’s eyes met in mid-air, but there was no fire.

Because Zhao Ziping looked away in a hurry, not daring to look at Fang Xiu.

On the other side, the prefect of Jinzhou followed Fang Xiu’s gaze and saw Zhao Ziping. His face darkened and he said loudly: “You worthless thing, why are you standing so far away!”
