Chapter 26 The Boss

After deciding on the way to show off, they immediately left the yard and started practicing. Without going far, they started practicing outside the village, and practiced for half an hour.

The result was that the villagers sighed and said that the noise was too unreasonable, and the dogs in the village barked wildly. After Li Qin and the others finished practicing, the excitement of the dogs had not passed, and then they still yelled, which made the whole village unable to sleep. Every family came out to beat the dogs, but the more they beat the dogs, the hurried the more they barked. They even barked until the middle of the night, making the villagers so angry that they couldn't.

But Li Qin and his five soldiers all slept honestly, for no reason, they were tired!

The next day, before dawn, He asked Li Qin to get up and said that today was a big day and it would be better to enter the city early, so he asked Xu Xiaoni and the others to come for dinner.

After a full meal, Li Qin took out a few sheepskins from his home and sold them after the exercise. Li Qin and Jing Qi took out the horse but did not ride it. Six people walked into the city. Li Qin said that whoever is the most popular in the city today will ride a horse when he returns to the village to show his reward.

Ten miles away, in a short while, we arrived, entered the city gate, and six people went straight to the county government.

Li Qin felt that he had come very early, but when he arrived at the county government gate, he saw that there had been about 300 people waiting here, and they were the last one to arrive.

Li Qin was very surprised. What is this? When watching movies and TV dramas in modern times, don’t you come late to be stylish and show your status? Why is Fuping just the opposite? He is in a hurry to come when he talks about training.

In the crowd, Meng Mu saw them, strode over and smiled, "Li Lang, why are you here now? You haven't eaten?"

Li Qin quickly greeted him and said, "Uncle Meng, it's early. I thought it was coming very early, but I didn't expect it to be late. We have had to practice today, so of course we have to eat enough to avoid losing strength for a while."

Meng Mu said excitedly, "You are really a recruit, and you don't ask others about the rules." He pointed to the crowd at the county government office and said, "The first time the recruits gathered, the county magistrate wants to enjoy the meal. I have three meals today, and every meal is dry, otherwise who would have come so early!"

Li Qin was stunned. What about the rules? He turned around and asked, "Brothers, can you stuff some into your stomach if you have dinner later?"

The five soldiers laughed together, patted their stomachs, and said in unison: "Yes, of course!"

Meng Mu glanced at Shen Yi and the others, pulled Li Qin aside, and said, "Li Lang, why did you choose such a person? I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble in the future!"

Li Qin shook his head and said, "I don't want anything else. I just want it. This is to solve the problems of my bosses."

Meng Mu yelled and said, "I'm afraid that other bosses will not appreciate your affection except me." After a pause, Meng Mu pointed to the crowd and whispered, "Look, those people who were surrounded by the Tang clan are all from the Tang clan, all of them are officers, and even Tang Biao became the head of the village..."

Li Qin looked in the direction of his finger and saw several people standing at the gate, all of whom were neatly uniformed and leather boots were on their feet, and the soup table was in it. It seemed that the rogue leader's injuries had improved. At least he could not see that he had broken his ribs when he stood still.

Meng Mu introduced him one by one. The man in his thirties in the middle was the county lieutenant of the county, named Tang Ren, and was also the Sima of the Fuping Army. Tang Ren was thin and had no idea. He had a very soft ear and was a little confused. If such a person could choose an official, he would not be a county lieutenant at all, but he had a backer. He was Tang Jie's nephew, not a clan nephew, and was definitely a real relative.

Next to him was a young man of about the same age as Li Qin. He looked sharp-mouthed and monkey-like, and he looked very similar to Tang Ren. He looked like a father and son. His name was Tang Lai, who was Tang Ren's son and was one of the heads of the gate.

Next to it is Tang Biao. In terms of relative relations, he was a little far away from the county magistrate Tang Jie, but he was still from the Tang clan, so he became the chief of the village.

The third garrison Chang is far away from the Tang family. He is in his forties and looks like he is not sloppy. He is named Yao Xiu, an officer who is gradually promoted from a veteran. His greatest ability is that every time he goes to the war, he can come back without any damage. He has no credit, but no mistakes. When all his comrades die, he naturally becomes one of the military leaders!

The last village chief was of course Meng Mu. Meng Mu whispered: "You have to flatter this Yao Xiu. His son Yao Qiu is also in the army. He is your immediate boss and your team leader."

Li Qin looked behind Tang Xiu and saw a man in his twenties standing, holding his shoulders with his hands and yawning constantly. He looked like Tang Xiu's young version, and he looked like he was a slippery person.

The Han Dynasty army was organized, with five people, one army, two ranks, one rank, five ranks, and one team. The captain position was called team leader. Two teams and one rank. The officer was the chief of the army, and the two ranks were one songs. The leader was the Sima of the army, and the five ranks were one battalions. The Fuping Army was not qualified enough. Without a large official like the rank, the highest officer was the Sima of the army.

There were two military marquises, one of Tang Ren, who personally led two hundred men if there was any war, and the other military marquis was part-time work by his son Tang Lai. Tang Jie was the county magistrate, and his nephew and his nephew were in charge of the army. Fuping's military and political power was firmly in the hands of the Tang family.

Li Qinzheng was talking to Meng Mu, but suddenly he saw the gate of the county yamen open. Several yamen runners came out, led by Jing Ming. The yamen runners carried three large pots, and the heat in the pot was boiling, and the rice was cooked.

Jing Ming shouted, "Are you all here? You have to start a meal when you come. Each person has a big bowl, and pickles are all there. You can add one more bowl of food above the team's ranking. You can queue up according to the position and receive the meal!"

The soldiers gathered around and clamored, no one lined up, and they were in front of the meal, and no one took the position seriously. Isn’t it just for the sake of making a living in the army? If you give them a full meal, you will recognize the officials. If you don’t give them a full meal, you will get out of the way!

Li Qin turned around and asked his subordinates: "If we act politely, will we be respected by others?" His soldiers were afraid of being beaten by him, and no one dared to rush over without ordering.

Shen Yi was so anxious that he rubbed his hands straight and said, "What kind of respect can you be considered stupid!"

Li Qin waved his hand and shouted, "Why are you so polite? Go and take the pot over!"

Shen Yi and Wu Xiaosan screamed and rushed into the crowd. Wu Danzi and Jing Qi followed closely. Xu Xiaoni was stunned for a moment. Seeing that everyone was passing by, he shouted, "Wait for me!" and rushed in.

Li Qin turned his head and said, "Uncle Meng, wait for them to take the pot over... Oh, where is the person?" He looked into the crowd and saw that Meng Mu was also squeezed.

He immediately shook his head, "What are you going to coax me in the village? Isn't it enough to let my subordinates get you food? Could it be that my subordinates don't listen to you?" After shaking his head, he nodded again. It seems that no one listened to Meng Mu's words. This village is really cowardly!"

Suddenly, someone yelled from the big pot: "Get out of here, grandpa, who dares to rob you? Grandpa recognizes you, grandpa's fist won't recognize you!" The person who called was Shen Yi.

Chen Yi and others rushed outside the pot and beat the soldiers to the side with a fist. Chen Yi lay on the pot, blocked the rice with his body, stared at a pair of wildebeest eyes, and roared. Wu Xiaosan and others also kicked and beat the soldiers.

The soldiers retreated one after another. They recognized Chen Yi and Wu Xiaosan. These two guys were unreasonable. They felt that they could not afford to offend them, so they had to back down.

Chen Yi raised the pot with both hands and was about to walk towards Li Qin. But Li Qin waved his hand and said, "Don't come over, just share the meals there. Didn't County Magistrate Jing say that he should receive the meals according to the position!" He pointed to the soldiers and shouted, "But look at your appearance, how can you take the words of County Magistrate Jing's heart? It's not like it, how can it be more concise!"

The soldiers looked at each other. Many of them recognized Li Qin. Li Lang's name was very loud in Fuping these days, but the soldiers thought to themselves: "We don't listen to County Magistrate Jing, he didn't say anything. What are you trying to do?"

Li Qin said: "First let the brothers above the age of the age serve the rice, and then it is the other brothers' turn. Jingqi will serve the rice for the county magistrate Tang." As he said that, he clasped his fists at Tang Ren from a distance.

The soldiers looked at Li Qin, then Chen Yi and Wu Xiaosan, and they all squeezed into the other two pots. Can't they afford to offend?

Tang Ren was immediately happy and saw a young man bringing the food to him. He took over the bowl and nodded at Li Qin, then turned to Tang and said, "That's Li Qin, right? It's not like you said. This person is very good. He knows to respect his boss and is much better than others. Li Lang is the most righteous, and it is true."

Although Tang Ren is not as rich as Liu Sheng, his family is well-off and not bad at this bowl of dry rice. It doesn't matter whether he eats or not. But what is important is that he is respected. Because he is weak and has no idea, even if he becomes a county magistrate, he rarely gets respect from others and does not take him seriously. This makes him a headache. Today, someone suddenly gave him face in public. Of course he was happy and immediately said that Li Qin is a good person.

Tang Biao snorted and thought to himself: "If you serve a bowl of rice, you just think he is a good person. It's really a fool. But it's better if you are confused, it's easier for me to replace you." He whispered: "Brother, Li Qin is the most cunning, don't be deceived by him."

Tang Lai also took the meal from Jing Qi at this time. He knew that Tang Biao had plans to replace his father, which was equivalent to snatching his future seat. So he supported anyone who didn't deal with Tang Biao, and Li Qin happened to be one of them.

Tang Lai said: "I think Li Qin is very good. Besides, how can he deceive his father? Don't talk nonsense."

Tang Biao's face suddenly darkened, but although Tang Xia was his junior, his position was higher than him, so he did not dare to have an attack. At this moment, Meng Mu also received the meal and shouted, "Li Lang, County Magistrate Tang said, you are the most righteous!"

When Li Qin heard this, he smiled. He never entered the crowd and kept standing outside to watch and watching everyone's reactions.

Yao Xiu and Yao Qiu and his son also received the meal. Both father and son were sloppy. They said whatever their boss said, and nodded together: "Prince Tang has a good vision, and Li Lang's reputation for being righteous is well-deserved!"

Tang Biao's face turned green, like a melon peel, and was angry! He thought to himself: "If it were Li Qin who gave you food, it would be fine if you said he was good. He was just serving you rice, not just holding your hands, but letting your subordinates serve it. You actually said he was good together. It's really outrageous!"

It happened that Jing Qi brought his rice at this time and stretched forward. Without waiting for the soup table to receive it, he said, "Tangtun is full, so I won't eat it!" He retracted his hand and gave the rice bowl a little longer!

Tang Biao was furious and pressed his temper and had to teach Jing Qi a lesson. However, as soon as his hand was lifted, a pain came from his ribs. He had to put his hand down again, stared at Li Qin, and glared at him.
