Chapter 328: It’s hard to know each other’s minds

Two days later, Li Yu, who was hurriedly running, was about to go back. In the past two days, as soon as Zhang Xiaobao showed up, he would follow Zhang Xiaobao to ask the details of the three plans given to him by Zhang Xiaobao.

Zhang Xiaobao did not refuse. As long as it was Li Yu's question, he would answer in detail and give examples to make Li Yu understand better.

Although the two days were not long, it seemed to see a new world for Li Yu. He had heard of the reputation of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan before. They were both literary and military, and each had their own strengths. Many people said that the most terrifying thing was not meeting one of them.

Because I only meet one of them, if I join the whole country, don’t think about taking advantage. There may be ways to compete. However, when I really meet them, I will never have a chance again, because they have grown up together since childhood.

The cooperation was so tacit. Some people thought that a look could make the other party understand, but Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan didn’t need any look at each other. Even if the two of them separated, they could understand what the other party would do and cooperate.

The most direct feeling was that during these two days, at noon on the first day, Wang Juan ran to the riverside without even saying hello, and just stayed with Zhang Xiaobao. As a result, it was about to have dinner, Zhang Xiaobao went to prepare something. It turned out to be a basin with a little salt, and there was nothing else.

Wang Juan ran back at this time and happily told Zhang Xiaobao that she had caught a lot of shrimps and wanted to eat salted shrimps. Then she put them directly in a basin and cooked them out for a meal.

At night, Wang Juan ran to the river again, and had never said hello. She was still with Zhang Xiaobao to ask for details. Then it was almost time for dinner. Zhang Xiaobao went to get some garlic sprouts and eggs. When Wang Juan came back, she said that she was still fishing for shrimps and wanted to eat dumplings at night. Then Zhang Xiaobao started to make dumplings with the things she took out.

The next day, Wang Juan ran out at noon. When he came back, he was carrying a big fish in his hand. Zhang Xiaobao was not there and went to prepare lunch. After hearing this, Wang Juan put the fish in and found a few children to let them live the mud. When Zhang Xiaobao brought the charcoal out, the mud was already alive. Zhang Xiaobao poured the fish's stomach with seasoning wine and wrapped it in mud to cook.

With such cooperation, how can we use any other look? Two people don’t need to meet or communicate, and you can know what the other party is going to do. One is literary and one is martial, and this is the real combination of two swords.

More importantly, if it is really a literary and martial arts, it is okay. The problem is that Zhang Xiaobao is not bad at martial arts. When he is really close, he always stands from the perspective that can protect Wang Juan the most. At the same time, when it comes to military affairs, he is better than himself, let alone Wang Juan.

When Zhang Xiaobao was planning, she added from the side that she would explain more thoroughly what she did not know. Who is talking nonsense? Zhang Xiaobao's martial arts are not good, and Wang Juan's literary arts are not good?

Only by really contacting two people can we understand their abilities. Even if we talk to them about academic matters, Wang Juan will not be worse than Zhang Xiaobao.

Such two people can't afford to offend Feng Changgong. It's not good for anyone to provoke, but they just want to meet Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, and they insist on it when there is a way out.

When I was about to leave, I came to please me and gave myself a gift worth 300 coins.

Sanbaiguan wanted to bribe himself, why didn’t he use so much money to bribe Zhang Zhong? There were too many, and it was a bit scary.

"Young master, it's already noon. Should I find a place to eat?" Just as Li Yu was terrified when he was thinking about Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, the captain of the guard next to him came forward to ask.

Li Yu escaped from what he thought just now, looked at the sky, and said, "It's noon so soon? Didn't you walk the way you came? When you came, you saw any hotels around you?"

"If you go back to the young master, there is no decent restaurant, only a small restaurant. Do you want to go there? What the subordinate means is that it is better to turn the direction, take a few more steps, and find a good restaurant to have a meal. The food made in the small restaurant must not taste good."

The captain of the guard suggested with concern that he hoped to look elsewhere along the fork in front of him.

Li Yu thought for a while and shook his head, "No need, go to the restaurant to ask, can you make something that 300 people eat? It's okay to be simple, as long as you can eat enough, so what about the restaurant? Can the food cooks there taste better than Zhang Xiaobao?

Don’t be picky. Many of the fifth brother’s guards were from the Tubo who followed Wang Juan to fight. When they were there, they worked hard every day. Do you still have time to think about what to eat? Even if the bark is in the tree, is my soldiers really that much different?"

"I don't dare, so I'll ask for a question." The captain of the guard actually wanted to have something good for himself and other brothers, but after Li Yu said this, he never dared to mention it again.

He hurriedly ordered someone to go over and ask in advance. He followed Li Yu's side and secretly decided that after he went back, he must train his subordinates. When he met the government army, he thought he was good at it.

This time I came to Xincai County and saw the guards of Tong'an County Prince Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, and then I realized how big the gap was. In total, it was about three days. In the next two days, I competed several games. Compared with the guards of Tong'an County Prince, one can fight two, two can fight five, and five can defeat fifteen of them.

The more people there are, the better the other party will cooperate. The person who is in the real competition is the person who did not follow Wang Juan to pass the test. Anyone who passes the test is simply disdainful to fight with someone like him. Some people are dissatisfied and go over to find trouble. As a result, five hit one, three hit it out, and two joints are dislocated.

The other party still had the same disdainful look, but no one dared to challenge him again. That was too ruthless, which was completely different from when he and others were training. He was just a killer move and fought with his life. He had never seen such a thing during training. When five people hit him for one time, he was obviously beaten in the face.

If it was a normal competition, he should avoid it. He actually held it hard and paid the price of two teeth. One met and dealt with the two people, looking like he didn't care.

You are cruel, really cruel, you are cruel to others and yourself. This is the one who returns alive from the battlefield.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's guards did not take action. Someone suggested comparing, and the other party asked the people on their side to sign a life-and-death document, saying that they never compete with others outside, and that they would see blood when they tried. The reason was that they were not good at learning skills and could not reach the level of control.

Only these two kinds of people made me lose a lot, so the young master was unhappy. His face was as deep as water at that time. If he wanted to eat something good today, he would probably have to be cleaned up when he went back.

Li Yu also prepared this way, it was embarrassing. It was so embarrassing. It was so embarrassing. The one who could not beat the fifth brother alone was more cooperative. What else would he have to do with such a guard? Can he specifically find someone who was inferior to him? If one day he needed to go outside, would he have to run away?

If you lead the fifth brother’s cavalry to Wang Juan, the other party should be the one who escapes. If you don’t say that you are so powerful, at least don’t be too embarrassed. It turns out that people who are powerful in hunting may not be powerful in killing people.

Thinking of this, Li Yu felt that he should hone his guards on the way back. When it was almost done, he would let the fifth brother see that he was not bad, and he worked very hard.

Li Xun didn't know what his younger brother was thinking, so when he sent his younger brother away, he gave him a lot of canned food, so that he would use it for food when he didn't want to eat. It was not easy to meet him once.

It was obviously a relative, but I couldn't show it. This time I came to Xincai. If I met him in the capital, it would be a different treatment. A large group of brothers was the loneliest. Thanks to meeting Xiaobao and Juanjuan at that time, otherwise I wouldn't know what he could become.

After seeing off his younger brother, Li Xun turned around and found Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. The two of them were planning to leave.

Li Xun was reluctant to leave. After thinking about it, he said, "You are going back. Wait for me a few days. I will take a look at the matter here and go to your side. That day someone came to report and said that honeycomb coal is easy to use, so why not send some to my county, and I will use it too."

"Well, I'm leaving. There's still something to deal with in the county. Juanjuan is also homesick. I guess she'll take her off to take her to Luoyang. Honeycomb coal is actually nothing. You can find a coal mine in your place. If there isn't there, go to the surrounding places. It's very simple to do it yourself. It's better to stay here for a few days. Look more. Each place is actually different in terms of details."

Zhang Xiaobao also knew that there was no banquet that would last forever. He said solemnly to Li Xun, allowing people to speed up the preparation and leave as soon as possible. Wang Juan has been getting more and more sleepy recently and always wants to sleep. He has to go back to let her meet her family. Then there is a comfort in her heart and it will be fine after this period of her menstrual cycle.

On the evening of that day, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan set off and left, leaving Li Xun alone to continue watching, so as to find the irregular rules.

"Xiaobao, we won't send people gradually. This time Li Linfu will come here. I really want to take a good look at what he looks like. It is said that he is so calm no matter what he treats, which makes people feel that he is very sincere and reliable. Then, as long as he has the chance, he will attack people who have had a holiday with him, which is very sinister."

On the way back, Wang Juan said to Zhang Xiaobao.

"If you are insidious, just be insidious. The main reason is that he is still very capable. Otherwise, relying solely on insidious is useless. What does he do? Just a small official, I really don't take him seriously from the fourth rank. He can go up if he doesn't give him a chance, and he won't think about it if he doesn't give him a chance.

If you don’t hate them, then suppress him. Even if he is really different from what is written in the book, he is a good person, and he will still suppress him. Who will not turn around if this earth is gone?"

Zhang Xiaobao tried to say something to make Wang Juan happy so that she could adjust her mood.

"Yes, as long as I am not satisfied with it, no matter who he is, he will clean up everything. But it is best to take a look at it at that time. If he is really capable, even if he cannot get him to a higher position, he must use it. The means of using people are not all good people who can use it."

Wang Juan was indeed happy, agreed, and suggested to observe Li Linfu well. No one was perfect. If the other party had the ability, then he could be arranged to be in a place where he could show his ability.

"Okay, listen to you, are you still sleepy? Why not come to mine immediately, let's go slowly." Zhang Xiaobao is indecisive.

"It's okay, it'll be fine in a few days. You are not allowed to bully me then." Wang Juan recalled her physical condition at this time, fatigue, sleepiness, and she was very edible.

"I think, but I'm not as fast as you, no, I decided to eat more mutton and dog meat after I go back. If necessary, turtles and ginseng can also be eaten." Zhang Xiaobao urged the horse and said jokingly.

"Then you just wait to eat ice cream every day. Don't run so fast. I also want to see the scenery around me." Wang Juan also rode his horse and chased after him.

In Baoxin County, many people have now begun to learn how to make honeycomb coal. Trucks of coal face have been delivered here, and the people go home to make it according to the method given by the yamen.

Old Man Bi and his three also made a few of them by themselves, and they were going to use them for barbecue at that time. I want to try whether the things baked with honeycomb coal are different than charcoal. If they can taste better, there will be more reasons for publicity.

"I'll put a few more holes next to this honeycomb coal, so that it will burn faster." Old Man Zhang took out the honeycomb coal from the pressed mold and continued to insert it in a small wooden stick in the place without holes.

Old Man Bi and Old Man Yao are not as idle as Old Man Zhang. After they took out the honeycomb coal, they looked at each other and stopped caring about the coal. Instead, they talked about what happened recently.

"The court sent Li Linfu and Cui Rizhi over. One of them belonged to Zhang Shuo and the other belonged to Yuwen Rong. It is estimated that there will be another fight after arriving in Xincai County."

Old Man Bi was washing his hands in the basin and said to Old Man Yao.

Old Man Yao wiped some soap on his hand and thought for a while, "In fact, it doesn't matter who comes here. Feng Changgong is over. Xiaobao and Juanjuan are really holding grudges. Even if Yu Wenrong wants to protect him, it may be better if he doesn't protect him. If he really protects him, then Yu Wenrong will easily get caught in.

The news sent by him the day before yesterday has already explained that no one can help him except Feng Changgong who went to Xiaobao and Juanjuan to admit his mistake. Unfortunately, he is impossible to get over. At that time, I hope Li Linfu can be smarter, otherwise he will not think about it once he is saved.

The world is so powerful that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors can be said casually? Although it is just a sentence, it can kill people. Now I know. If Xiaobao and Juanjuan want to do something, follow them and never object. If you really want to object, you can use the usual channels.

Anyone who is wrong is useless and he will even get himself in. The two little guys will do this, maybe they are still waiting for others to do this."

Wang Juan jumped down as soon as he saw three old men playing mahjong. At the same time, he also knew that nothing was wrong in the county. The paintings of the day were still posted at the door of the yamen, so that the people could know what they had earned and spent, and what they spent.

Also, we tell everyone about the plans to spend money in the future. If the people disagree, then we must express the disadvantages. It is best to propose better solutions. Once adopted, we can get a medal and we can often come to the county center to give opinions in the future.

Old Man Bi's forehead was covered in sweat. Zhang Xiaobao looked around and probably lost, otherwise he could not do this.

Sure enough, Old Man Bi glanced at the goose eggs and said to Wang Juan: "Do you want me to be so salty? Have you ever seen goose eggs that you usually cooked? They are all salty things that are pickled."

"Grandpa Bi, gambling is wrong. What's even more wrong is that when you lose the gambling, you have to extricate yourself from others. Who says goose eggs must be salty? My this is indifferent. As long as the people feel that they like it, they will not care about him. If you don't believe me, you can try it."

Wang Juan said and knocked the goose eggs open, revealing the appearance inside. It was indeed light. As soon as the news that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan returned to the county spread, someone immediately ran home and cooked the goose eggs on the high heat and sent them to him.

If the goose eggs are not salty, they are actually not delicious and fishy, ​​but no one would say such goose eggs are not good. Who doesn’t know that salty goose eggs are much more expensive than eggs and duck eggs.

After looking at the goose egg on Wang Juan's hand, Old Man Bi said jealously: "I said I am the Minister of the People's Republic of China or the Ministry of Revenue. As a result, no one said he would give me some things. You are here to welcome me this time. I am sad. Xiaobao, come here to help me win a few games so that I can comfort me."

Zhang Xiaobao didn't expect to encounter such a problem as soon as he came back. Looking at Old Man Bi's expectations, then looking at Old Man Yao and Old Man Zhang's warning eyes, he finally decided to make someone sad.

So he said to Old Man Bi, "Grandpa Bi, my stomach suddenly feels uncomfortable. I will come out later and I will talk about it first. I didn't eat goose eggs along the way. Grandpa Bi, remember to eat it, just lose if you lose. Money is something outside the body. Juanjuan, let's go."

"What money? We are playing stickers. I have lost twenty of them. I have to put them on my face at night." Zhang Xiaobao, who was pulling Wang Juan away quickly, heard the business coming from behind, and his ears moved, and after a while he had to forget.

Cui Rizhi still ran to the bow of the boat two days later and sat there. He would only return to the cabin while eating and sleeping, otherwise he would not stay inside.

It’s not that I feel uncomfortable staying inside, but because the wooden walls in the cabin are really soundproof, and when I want to say something to the master, I always worry that others will listen to it.

Of course, the bow of the boat is not soundproof, but you can see other places. If someone approaches from behind, he can immediately change the topic so that others can avoid knowing what he is going to say.

After coming out of the capital, sailing down the water all the way, the speed is already very fast, but you don’t think about arriving in Xincai County in a very short time, unless you dock now and ride a fast horse to walk to the military post.

Of course such a thing is impossible. Cui Rizhi didn't want to be here now. Today, he also asked the master to sit at the bow of the boat together, and saw that there was no one around, and said, "How are you looking at Li Linfu these two days? Can you turn him into someone here?"

The master has indeed been carefully observing Li Linfu in the past two days, wanting to learn more from his daily life, but found that Li Linfu seems to be very good to everyone, always smiling, and not being angry with anything. Even if he deliberately sent someone to Li Linfu to say a few unpleasant words, Li Linfu still looked so kind.

If this is true, it would be a very good thing, but the master was worried that Li Linfu looked the same on the surface, but behind him there was another one. Such a person is actually the most terrifying thing, and he couldn't know what he was thinking.

Nowadays, many people on the boat, including the boatman, are very good to Li Linfu. Even the chefs on the boat have made some good things for him, and other people have no chance to get such benefits.

I don’t know how the people on the boats of Zhang and Wang families became like this. They looked like a flattering smile that made people feel disgusting, which made people feel very uncomfortable after seeing it.

"What? Didn't you see it?" Seeing that the master next to him didn't say anything for a while, Cui Rizhi asked again.

At this time, the master spoke and said, "I always feel that something is wrong. Logically speaking, a person as good as Li Linfu with a temper now cannot be promoted to his current position. Not everyone can get such a position.

Now many of the people on the ship have been bribed by him. When he buys people, he doesn’t need much money. As long as he lowers his identity and smiles more, he should learn from his own words. It’s better to learn from him and win over the people on the ship first, so that it will be convenient when it needs to be used in the future."

Cui Rizhi thought so too, and he couldn't understand it. Logically speaking, Li Linfu, who should be very tough, would have been able to stabilize his position long ago, and he would have whatever he wanted, at least he would not have to gather other people to his place to discuss something bad. Waiting to get to the place, that is the time to really use people.

What Li Linfu does now is to summon, and he doesn't do it like himself. He runs to the bow of the boat, watch the flowing water and basks in the sun, but hides in the house all day long, and doesn't know what he is thinking about.
To be continued...
