Chen Ding stood outside the door, watching Liu Han and Guo Yong talking and laughing, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.
His subordinate Wang Shu said: "The villain didn't see it."
Chen Ding said: "We have received a lot of benefits over the years, but I always feel that it is not normal. I want to give it up...but I can't let go of the money. Damn, no wonder those outsiders say that all troubles are caused by greed and anger, but I am not greedy and angry. What are you doing alive?”
Wang Shu smiled and said: "The steward is overly worried. The money has benefited many people, and we are taking a small amount. Even if anyone wants to pursue the case, they will be blocked by them. So the villain feels that this matter is appropriate. It’s here!”
Chen Ding rubbed his face and said, "Maybe I'm over-worrying! But Liu Han is so arrogant and won't lower his head when he talks to me. I always feel like something is wrong."
Wang Shu said: "This person said he has a bad temper and offended the superior officer."
Chen Ding breathed a sigh of relief, "Maybe it's just this temper! But I always feel something is wrong, so I want to find a way to get rid of him!"
Wang Shu said: "He doesn't make mistakes, it's not easy to deal with!"
Chen Ding scolded: "You bitch slave, how stupid you are. If he doesn't make mistakes, you won't express your anger?"
Wang Shu patted his forehead and said, "The villain is stupid."
In the afternoon, craftsmen can rest for a while, take a nap and restore their energy.
Guo Yong was in good spirits. When he saw Liu Han writing and drawing on a piece of paper with a piece of charcoal, he glanced at it but couldn't understand it.
Liu Han put the paper away and asked: "Lao Guo, how many years have you been doing this?"
Guo Yun thought about it carefully, "It seems like... thirty years."
"You are considered an old craftsman. The gang of people under my stewardship are fierce, but they are not as capable as you. Why haven't you gone up there for many years?"
Guo Yun smiled honestly, "When I was a craftsman, I focused on learning from the master. The master hid it, so I just looked at it. If I didn't understand, I went back to figure it out on my own. It took a few years before I slowly became a master."
The so-called disciple of the church starves the master. Sometimes, being conservative is not ignorance, but more poverty.
"After I left school, I also wanted to be a manager, which would save me trouble and have more money and food. At that time, I watched how the managers behaved. I looked around and found something was wrong!"
Guo Yong shook his head and sighed, "Their way of managing things is to punish the craftsmen with money and food, and then beat them with fists and kicks, and beat them hard with sticks..."
"Then can't you do it too?" Liu Han said.
"Old Liu, I don't like what you say!" Guo Yong rubbed his butt and distanced himself from Liu Han.
"I just said it casually." Liu Han quickly apologized.
Guo Yong rubbed his butt, but after thinking about it, he rubbed it a little further, "I can do it too. I've been blacksmithing for many years. Who wouldn't be afraid if I really want to do it? But I can't do it!"
"Why?"
Guo Yong pointed to the craftsmen, "They are hard-working and conscientious like me. They only want to build good weapons for the men of Northern Xinjiang to kill the enemy. Does this count as due diligence?"
Liu Han said seriously: "Forget it!"
Guo Yong sighed, "But such good and conscientious people are being bullied by the managers."
Liu Han said softly: "Why?"
Guo Yong lowered his voice, "The stewards want money, but where does it come from? Doesn't it come from deductions? And things like iron materials coming in and out... Hey!"
"Don't you have an account book?"
"Old Liu, you are a little stupid."
Liu Han laughed and said, "I'm not very smart."
Guo Yong said: "Loss! If I quote 30% for 10% of the loss, how much can I eat in a year? I'll scare you to death!"
Liu Han squeezed the piece of paper in his hand, and Guo Yong said angrily: "But if the loss is too great, the superiors will scold them, and the stewards will push it on the heads of the craftsmen, scolding and beating..."
Liu Han asked: "Why don't you sue?"
Guo Yong shook his head and said sadly: "I complained and went quietly, but when I came back to the management, I found the man directly, beat him severely, and then found a crime and exiled him. Later I disappeared.
Lao Liu, tell me, why did the person who was reported get information from the person who reported it?"
Liu Han's eyes were cold, "A den of snakes and rats, working together in a conspiracy."
On the second day, Liu Han came to the workshop.
He had put on new clothes today, and he didn't look like he was going to work.
Guo Yong waved, "Old Liu, come and help!"
"Coming, coming!" Liu Han trotted over.
Guo Yong used pliers to take out the knife blank, "Old Liu, take it, just above it. I'll hit it with a hammer. If you are told to move, you can move. Do you understand?"
"Understood." Liu Han took the pliers and placed the red-hot knife blank on the iron table.
Guo Yong raised the hammer.
Clang clang clang!
Liu Han tried his best to keep the knife blank stable, but it was still crooked.
"Set it right!" Guo Yongyong said with dissatisfaction.
"Oh!" Liu Han clamped the blade blank again and changed the angle.
Clang clang clang!
"Change your face!"
"Get some in!"
"retreat!"
Liu Han couldn't hold on, his hand slipped and the knife blank fell.
Guo Yong sighed, "Old Liu, how can you get along like this?"
Liu Han said with shame: "I will learn from you later!"
Guo Yong came over and said, "Give it to me!"
He held the pliers and waited for Liu Han, "Watch it, let's see how I pinch it!"
Liu Han watched intently.
Guo Yong held the pliers in one hand and the hammer in his right hand, just hammering away.
Clang clang clang!
"Be steady, don't be chaotic, don't seek speed." Guo Yong taught his experience while hammering.
"See clearly, there must be a method for hammering. If you don't hit it with a hammer here and a hammer there, the horizontal knife will be useless."
"Good!" Liu Han praised: "He is indeed an old craftsman."
Guo Yong handed him the hammer and said, "Come and try."
Liu Han raised his head, a little worried, "I'm afraid it's still not possible, right?"
Guo Yong sighed, "The ugly lady has to see her parents-in-law, come on!"
Liu Han picked up the hammer and hammered hard.
clang!
The blade is bent.
Liu Han looked up at Guo Yong: "..."
Guo Yong was startled, "Can't you tell that you, an old man, have quite a lot of strength? Don't worry, you can do good work as long as you have strength."
The two of them cooperated, and later Liu Han panted and waved his hands, "I have a rest."
"Are you tired of your hands?" Guo Yong asked.
Liu Han hit his lower back with his backhand, "I still have strength in my hand, but my back is sore."
Guo Yong said with a smile: "You have kidney deficiency. You are old, so you should just let this guy rest."
"Guo Yong!"
The steward Chen Ding came down aggressively with several men, and without saying a word, he knocked Guo Yong down.
"Why did you take me?" Guo Yong struggled desperately.
"The workshop's account books are lost!"
Chen Ding stood on the side, "I saw you wandering around outside the house yesterday. You didn't take it. Who did it take?"
Guo Yong was held down by two people, and he tried to raise his head from the ground, his face flushed, "He is not a villain, and the villain did not wander around outside yesterday."
Chen Ding sneered, "I saw it with my own eyes!"
Guo Yong said sadly and angrily: "The villain really didn't take it. The manager must have misjudged the person."
"Maybe I'm dazzled, but... besides you, who else is there?" Chen Ding looked at Liu Han.
This is a clear hint.
As long as Guo Yong changes his story and says he saw Liu Han wandering outside Chen Ding's room, then he will be relieved.
The craftsmen stopped their work and looked here silently.
Someone whispered: "Lao Guo is an honest man and would not do such a thing."
"Didn't the steward say that maybe he was dazzled?"
"The steward is looking at Liu Han!"
"This old Liu still comes to our place at such an advanced age. It shows that he has no future."
"Hey! If I knew I should leave earlier, wouldn't it be an eyesore if I stayed here?"
"Yes! We are not in the same group. If he stays, it will only hinder the management."
Guo Yong was stunned and slowly looked at Liu Han.
Liu Han looked at him calmly.
Chen Ding shouted: "Say!"
Guo Yong looked struggling, his cheeks trembled slightly, and he suddenly turned his head away with force: "The villain didn't see it!"
Chen Ding laughed ferociously and said: "You bitch slave, this is a toast and you will be punished with a drink!"
Guo Yong said: "The villain doesn't want to harm others!"
"Then harm yourself!" Chen Ding looked at Liu Han, "Liu Han!"
Liu Han nodded, "I'm here."
This person is not panicking?
This doubt flashed through Chen Ding's mind, and he immediately sneered: "That's you!"
Liu Han asked: "What did I do?"
"You collaborated with Guo Yong to steal the account books!"
"Why did I steal the account books?"
yes!
Why are you stealing the account books?
Mao is useless!
Chen Ding said coldly: "I have offended someone recently, and that person bribed you and others to steal the account books in order to frame me!"
Tsk!
This pot can be called a flying pot. There is no trace, but it is terrifying.
If the account book is lost and the number of materials does not match up afterwards and the account book cannot be restored, this is a serious crime.
Chen Ding smiled ferociously and said, "Do you have anything else to say?"
"have."
Liu Han said: "First, I wanted to see the account books, and I saw them, but I didn't steal them."
This man was so stupid that he took the initiative to admit this.
Guo Yong shouted: "Old Liu, are you crazy?"
Chen Ding laughed, "It's really you!"
"Secondly, there are two levels of account books in your house. The first level is for external use, and the loss is as high as 30%. The first level is for your own account, and the loss is less than 10%."
Chen Ding was shocked and said with a ferocious smile: "Take it!"
Liu Han picked up a freshly prepared horizontal knife and retreated calmly, "Whoever wants to be with Chen Ding, be careful and deal with it together!"
More than ten people stood behind Chen Ding. He raised his hands and said, "Beat him half to death!"
Guo Yong shouted: "Old Liu, run!"
Liu Han did not run, because there were heavy footsteps outside.
The big men who rushed towards them looked up and saw a group of sergeants rushing in.
The leading general shouted: "Kneel down!"
A big man raised his sword and shouted: "One of our own!"
"Fire arrows!" the general shouted.
call out!
The big man was shot dead on the spot.
The remaining people screamed and lay on the ground. Only Chen Ding, shaking, asked: "Who are you waiting for?"
The general came over, glanced at Chen Ding with cold eyes, then walked up to Liu Han and saluted.
"I have met Liu Sima!"
…
"Yang Xuan led the army to the grassland." Liao Jin handed the document to Huang Chunhui.
"He Lianchun?" Huang Chunhui took the document.
"yes."
Huang Chunhui frowned, "That old dog was jealous of He Lianfeng and was hiding in Tanzhou. Some people say he is avoiding trouble, but I think he is more like waiting for the opportunity. What are the rules for this trip?"
Liao Jin said: "Ningxing ordered He Lianchun to attack Chenzhou."
Huang Chunhui shook his head, "Unless Ning Xing takes Chenzhou as the main place to attack, there will be endless troubles if Tanzhou sends troops."
Liao Jin said: "Yes! The three major tribes may seem docile, but in fact they are very wild. Once a war breaks out, they may become a hidden danger in Tanzhou."
"It's like raising three disobedient dogs. The Tanzhou army must take them with them when attacking, so they have to loosen the dog leash that restrains them. But what will happen to the three most disobedient dogs? He Lianchun
We don’t have the confidence to control them anymore. Therefore, over the years, Chenzhou and the three major tribes have been shouting and killing each other, but Tanzhou has never interfered, just because they don’t want it to turn into a war."
Huang Chunhui thought for a while, "He Lianchun probably wants to check and balance the three major ministries. If Yang Xuan leads the army, he will be used by him. I am wondering, does he know He Lianchun's intention?"
Liao Jin pointed to the document and said with a smile: "I said that it was a little fox."
Huang Chunhui glanced at the document and smiled: "I actually saw it, but this time it is considered a crisis. It would be better if he didn't go."
"Ms. sir." Liao Jin disagreed with this view, "Yang Xuan is young, and young people love to be enterprising."
Huang Chunhui said faintly: "Old Liao, everyone has enterprising spirit. As long as the situation is better, I can dream of being eighteen years old again and lead you and others to charge and fight all the way to Ningxing."
Liao Jin said expressionlessly: "Subsequently, His Majesty was suspicious of me, so my husband was dismissed and returned to his fields, and I was driven to the west to guard the Luoluo people for their retirement."
Huang Chunhui frowned, "Can't you just let me have a sweet dream?"
Liao Jin said sternly: "My lord, you should stop daydreaming as you get older."
"Who said this?"
"The doctor said it."
"Which doctor?" Huang Chunhui is old and in poor health, so he is half a doctor.
"The granddaughter of the family."
Huang Chunhui laughed and said, "I can imagine the little girl's face when she said these words in a serious manner. Hey! It's so adorable!"
There was gentleness in Liao Jin's eyes, "Yes! Just thinking about my descendants, I feel that I should take good care of Northern Xinjiang and let them live a carefree life."
"Beiliao will not stop." Huang Chunhui rubbed his temples, "There was a commotion in the palace, and the prince is now useless. The noble concubine is getting more and more favored."
"But she has no son, so everything is just the moon in the well."
"But she has a brother." Huang Chunhui sighed: "Now that Liang Jing is more and more important, he can often go to the court to discuss matters. What he said last time... Northern Xinjiang and Southern Xinjiang should make some big noise. Damn!
Big movement, does he know that if the big movement is not handled well, it will destroy the country?"
"He was still a doctor." Liao Jin still remembered Liang Jing.
"I'm about to be promoted." Huang Chunhui sighed: "This is how one person achieves enlightenment. Chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, making everyone in the world want to have a daughter, and they all want to get under their skirts together. Damn it! The world is in decline, and it is ruined by this kind of people.
!”
Liao Jin shook his head and said, "Ms. sir, be careful with what you say."
"How old am I?" Huang Chunhui didn't care about this, "I can tell you in memorials."
"My husband actually mentioned this in his memorial?"
"I didn't scold you. I just deducted my salary for three years."
Liao Jin smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty is determined to have his own way, why bother to persuade him?"
Huang Chunhui said calmly: "In this Tang Dynasty, someone must stand up and speak for it. If others don't speak up, then I will do it!"
A clerk came in and said, "Sir."
"What's the matter?"
"Liu Sima mobilized his troops and suddenly captured more than ten officials."
