Chapter 139 139: Escort tax money? 【Ask monthly ticket】
Zhai Le didn't go back empty-handed either.
Two altars in the left hand and two altars in the right hand, return with a full load.
With a flexible jump, he easily climbed over the low wall and jumped into the wall. Before he could stand still, an extremely familiar face appeared in his sight. He almost lost his footing, the relaxed smile on his face froze slightly, and he stood up consciously.
Called that person softly: "Brother..."
Zhai Huan is still dressed as a refined scholar, seeing such a big cousin turned over from the wall, his expression is calm, and he is not at all surprised by Zhai Le's appearance.
"Did Xiaofang have a good time outside these few days?"
Zhai Le smiled and stepped forward boldly: "Happy. Brother, let me tell you, Brother Shen is so funny, I have never seen him like him, interesting, very interesting."
Mentioning the experience of the past few days, Zhai Le couldn't help smiling, and those peach blossom eyes that were born with a smile were even more radiant.
He sat down across from his cousin.
Happily shared with Zhai Huan the experience of pigs.
Zhai Huan: "...???"
When the cousin said that Mr. Shen Xiaolang would be a pig, his expression froze for a moment. But when the cousin said that he also learned the skill of weeding pigs, he had seven females and nine males in one morning, a total of sixteen piglets... Zhai Huan's facial expression management for many years almost failed.
He rubbed between his brows with a headache: "Is that fun?"
Zhai Le thought about it seriously: "It's not fun to say it's fun, that pig screamed too harshly, but seeing Brother Shen's earnestness in teasing the pig, I feel that this job is quite interesting."
No matter how boring things are, they will be interesting when accompanied by someone.
Zhai Huan's lips moved, but he didn't say anything.
But Zhai Le understands him, even though his cousin doesn't say anything.
Pigging is indeed not a high-level job, it is even dirty and tiring, after all, it is dealing with that stuff. But if, as brother Shen said, ordinary people can eat delicious meat food, what's so dirty about it?
only-
There was only one thing that puzzled him. Who was the first to discover that the pork that had been squashed was delicious? For what kind of thought and purpose did this guy slaughter his own pig?
Seeing that his cousin was silent, Zhai Le thought about his plan with a smile on his face: "If the pork tastes really good, you can raise more in the future. Brother Shen also said that it can be slaughtered in six or seven months. Isn't it a year?" Can raise two rounds? This is better than other meat animals."
He was a little thirsty when he said that, only then did he realize that there was an endgame on the chessboard, there was still a cup of lukewarm tea in hand, and even the mat he was sitting on had residual temperature. He looked up and looked around: "Is there a guest?"
Zhai Huan said: "Yes."
"People left?"
Zhai Le was embarrassed and hesitated to get up.
Zhai Huan waved his hand to signal him not to get up: "Just leave."
"Oh, luckily luckily."
If you come back earlier by yourself, let your cousins and friends see that you don’t go through the front door and love to climb over the wall, it is easy to leave a bad impression.
Zhai Huan asked: "Aren't Xiaofang curious about who that person is?"
"Brother, I am relieved to make friends."
He has always trusted his cousin, and will not pay too much attention to his cousin's interpersonal communication. Anyway, as long as he knows that brother will not suffer, it will be fine, just as he will not interfere when he makes friends.
Although Zhai Le didn't ask, how could Zhai Huan hide from his closest cousin, and wrote lightly: "It's the county guard."
Zhai Le was stunned: "The sheriff? The sheriff of Sibao County?"
"He wants to recruit brother?"
It's not that Zhai Le looks down on people, but that he doesn't like the sheriff of Sibao County. My elder brother is not a humble scholar without foundation, and it is not without foundation in his home country in the southeast. If it is really an olive branch, it is a bit funny to be true.
Zhai Huan lowered his eyes and said: "There is no solicitation."
He hinted several times but was declined by him.
Zhai Le muttered: "It's good if there is no one. I always feel that this person is not very decent. He acts like a villain. Although I believe that brother will not suffer, but he is really tricky, and it is hard to guard against. This time the visit is purely for an interview. Friend, or is there another purpose?"
Zhai Huan was quite amused when he saw his cousin's posture of preparing to guard against death, and said: "There is another purpose."
Zhai Le frowned slightly.
I don't know what purpose I should ask.
Zhai Huan confessed first: "He said that Sibao County is short of employing people. The escaped traitor of the Gong family has not been caught yet, and more people need to be sent to search. In addition, there are hidden dangers in the county. It is really impossible to mobilize too many troops for a while... So I want to invite you Let me do him a favor."
Ask the two brothers for help? ? ?
What needs this kind of force lineup? ? ?
What is even more strange is that two young scholars and warriors who have traveled here should be invited to help such a big event...
It is somewhat inexplicable to be true.
"How can I help? No matter how nervous Sibao County is about using troops, it shouldn't be difficult to transfer thousands of people, right? What about the garrison in the county?"
Most brave fighters will choose to join the army. It is difficult for the outside world to see, but the garrison is not uncommon. Taking the seventh-class officials as an example, the garrison of Sibao County can also pick out one or two. If it is not easy to transfer the seventh-class officials, what about the fifth-class officials and sixth-class officials?
Why do you need any foreign aid? ? ?
"Help **** a batch of supplies..." Zhai Huan paused, and then said, "This batch of supplies is very important, the county guard attaches great importance to it, and has already mobilized the troops that can be mobilized. I am just worried that there will be accidents, so please wait for me to take action." Help...mostly tax money."
The sheriff didn't directly say what the **** was, but Zhai Huan roughly guessed it based on the information leaked by the sheriff's flickering words.
Zhai Le gasped when he heard the last word.
"Tax bank, this, this—"
Intuition told him not to take this muddy water.
Then he said solemnly: "Even the county guard himself said that the power in the territory is unstable, if it is really escorting tax money... Isn't this a lice on the bald man's head, an obvious target???"
Why don't you send your own troops to escort?
If you are really afraid of being robbed, you will be escorted by heavy troops!
Zhai Huan’s expression was calm at the beginning, and he almost choked when he heard the words behind him. He couldn’t help laughing and asked, “Puchi on the bald man’s head, Xiaofang, where did you learn that joke?”
"I learned from Brother Shen." Zhai Le did not hesitate to "betray" Shen Tang, "Brother, it's not important. If it's really tax money, there are countless eyes and ears in Sibao County... If we take over this hot hand Sweet potato, don't you find it hard for yourself?"
Zhai Huan: "..."
It's this brother Shen Youli again.
From the looks of it, these two are indeed very playable.
"Brother Wei also wanted to refuse at first... But, it's really 'hard to turn down'. The **** is another fake team that deceives people, so there shouldn't be a big problem. Besides—it's better if something happens, isn't it?" After finishing speaking, the young man was gloomy There seemed to be a flash of light in his eyes, "This county magistrate is cunning and spares his life. He is safe for bonded money, so naturally he will not be unprepared for any means."
"Fake team?" Zhai Le breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was a fake team. It wasn't his conspiracy theory, but he was really afraid that their brothers would become "scapegoats". However, what his cousin said made him a little puzzled.
Listen, brother is looking forward to something bad? ? ?

I found that Zhai Le and Zhai Huan are too easy to make mistakes, so let me pick and choose again.
