Chapter 257 [256] The administration of the great consul, the fire and red lotus, and the remote chat with Qingqing
Early in the morning.

Chen Shu and his wife, under the heavy snowflakes, are pushing their own cart together, which is also the pancake cart that the whole family relies on for their livelihood.

The couple's destination is the core of Anhua City - Yizheng Square.

When passing a snow-covered road, a team of inspectors happened to pass by.

When the chief inspector gave an order, a group of people swarmed up, pulling in front and pushing in the back, and easily pushed the pancake cart out of the snow-covered road.

Even the two spirit mastiffs use their two dog legs to help push the cart.

The couple expressed their gratitude sincerely: "Thank you very much for the help of the inspectors!"

The chief inspector waved his hand indifferently, and led the team away.

"Wang! Wang!"

The dogs also barked a few times at the couple, as if telling them to be careful on the road.

Chen Shu watched the inspectors drift away, and whispered, "Since the Grand Consul came, the inspectorate has completely changed."

His wife, Wang Fen, echoed in a low voice: "Yeah, I used to be fierce and evil, but now I'm too kind to civilians."

The couple sighed a few words together, and continued on their way with the pancake cart.

After half an hour.

The couple arrived at Yizheng Square.

"Squeak!"

Accompanied by the sound of trampling on the snow, a young manager in uniform walked over quickly and said, "Do you have a business license?"

Chen Shu quickly responded, "Yes! I do!"

The middle-aged man carefully took out a palm-sized metal badge from the inner pocket of his winter coat, and handed it to the other party.

The steward took a closer look, and said seriously: "Your Excellency, the Grand Consul, is kind enough to specially set aside an area in the square to allow you to operate.

"This place is right under your nose, please do business with integrity, don't be short-changed, don't shoddy, and pay attention to food hygiene..."

The steward said more than ten prohibitions in one breath, and his tone became strict: "If there is any violation, the license will be confiscated immediately, understand?"

Chen Shu nodded again and again: "Understood!"

For this license, he boldly spent [-] silver coins saved by his family. Naturally, he dared not do these things, otherwise wouldn't it be a blood loss?
The steward waved his hand: "Okay."

The couple hurriedly pushed the pancake cart to the designated place.

Chen Shu glanced at the sky, and said quickly: "It is estimated that someone will come over in 10 minutes. I will light the fire, and you will prepare the pancakes."

The middle-aged man squatted down, first stuffed the fuel block into the stove, then poured in a little brown oil, and struck a few times with the flint, and the hot flame burst out.

Wang Fen quickly took out various things, such as batter, sauces, various side dishes and so on.

It's not even 10 minutes.

A civilian with a big beard walked towards the square.

Chen Shu glanced at it, and shouted decisively: "Hot pancakes, delicious and inexpensive!"

This sound was like a signal.

More than a dozen stalls in the business area shouted one after another.

"Hot steamed stuffed buns, cold and full!"

"Sweet ginger tea hot drink, warm heart and stomach!"

The stall owners dare not speak too loudly, nor dare to shout continuously, this is the request of the steward.

After all, there is the government building not far away. If it is as noisy as a vegetable market, wouldn't it affect the work of the staff?

Perhaps it was the reason for the first call, the bearded man walked straight towards the pancake stand.

soon.

The pancake stand got the first business of the day - three pancakes.

While making pancakes, Chen Shu asked with a smile, "Are you here to see the 'War Horses Galloping' in the City Hall Square?"

The bearded man nodded and said, "Yes! I heard that there are only three performances a day, and each time is full of people, so come earlier."

The so-called "war horses galloping" are exactly the twelve stone horses that Cheng Han tossed out on a whim a few days ago.

He gave instructions to the war horse to run three times a day in the morning, noon and evening, to show his presence, and to act as a statue at other times.

Surprisingly, after this incident spread, many civilians came here admiringly.

At the beginning, the guards in the council hall would drive away irrelevant people.

Sitting in his office, Cheng Han paid attention to this scene, decisively stopped the guards, and ordered the square to be opened to all civilians in the city.

Since then, Yizheng Square has completely become a famous scenic spot in the city.

People come to visit in an endless stream from morning to night, and every time when the stone horse is running wildly, it is even more crowded with tens of thousands of people, which is very lively.

At this moment.

Chen Shu got excited and showed off his knowledge: "Since the Grand Consul took office, Anhua City has big news every day.

"Everyone thinks that the wishing tablet in Dongshan Park is a tool for you to listen to the voices of the common people, but who knows that the stone tablet can actually cure diseases and save lives.

"Officials from the Council said that at least [-] civilians met a doctor in the dream of the stone tablet, and were diagnosed with hidden diseases and prescribed medicine."

The bearded man looked surprised: "The Wishing Monument is so powerful?!"

Chen Shu said with a "hehe" smile, "Your Excellency the Grand Consul also issued an executive order, ordering all major pharmacies to temporarily open branches at the entrance of the park, so that civilians can follow the prescribed prescription."

His wife, Wang Fen, skillfully put a pancake into a paper bag, and added a sentence by the way: "People in the council also said that with so many pharmacies in one place, it is very convenient for ordinary people to compare prices and buy cheaper medicines. "

The bearded man nodded again and again: "This is indeed a good way!"

Chen Shu changed the topic: "I don't know if you know that yesterday, His Excellency the Grand Consul personally signed the 'Low-income Family Living Security Act', also known as the 'Dibao Act'."

The bearded man looked curious: "Oh? I've never heard of it."

In the spirit of serving customers, Chen Shu immediately introduced: "The general meaning of the bill is that poor families with low monthly income will be divided into three levels according to their income, and each can receive a certain amount of subsidies."

Wang Fen added next to it: "Families with special difficulties at the lowest level can receive a subsidy of up to six silver coins per month!"

An ordinary monthly income is usually around twenty silver coins. In comparison, six silver coins is definitely not a small amount of money.

The bearded man sighed: "Your Excellency is indeed a kind person with a common heart."

Chen Shu handed over the pancakes, deeply convinced: "Who said it wasn't? Compared with this Your Excellency, the previous grand consuls are really far behind."

The bearded man took the pancake and said with a smile, "You are very clear about the affairs of the Council Hall."

Chen Shu laughed and said, "My mother-in-law and I set up a stall at the entrance of the Council Hall. Many employees come to buy pancakes from us. How can we not know?"

The bearded man handed over the money: "You don't need to look for the extra two copper coins, it's just a tip."

Chen Shu smiled openly: "You are too generous!"

*
As time went by, more and more people flowed into the Yizheng Square.

Although there are so many people that can be called "crowded", the inspection department already has experience in dealing with it, and a large number of inspectors who rushed over in advance maintained the order in an orderly manner.

And with more people, the business of the pancake stand will naturally become more prosperous.

Chen Shu and his wife were so busy that they kept their feet on the ground, and they didn't stop for a moment.

"Dang! Dang!"

The loud bell suddenly rang through the Yizheng Square.

The tens of thousands of people who gathered here instantly created a wave.

Because this means that the first horse gallop in the morning is about to begin.

Chen Shu wiped the sweat from his forehead, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally, I can take a rest."

Wang Fen quickly counted the iron box containing the money, and said in a low voice, "We have earned at least five silver coins just now."

Chen Shu looked at the majestic political building, and said reverently, "Thank you, Your Excellency, Grand Consul."

Change to the past.

How dare he set up a stall in the Yizheng Square, as long as he gets close, he will be roughly driven away, and even the car will be overturned.

but now.

His Excellency the Grand Consul personally marked out a business area, and even created a magical galloping horse, which gave him the hope of a better life.

"Dang! Dang!"

The bell continued to ring.

Wang Fen wiped her hands on the apron, and she was in a great mood: "It's about to start."

Chen Shu nodded, and turned his gaze to the center of the square: "There seem to be more people today than yesterday."

The location of the operating area is located behind the crowd.

Looking from the couple's point of view, only the backs of the heads are stacked, at most you can only see the head of the stone horse statue.

A few seconds passed.

Suddenly, a huge commotion erupted in the square.

Because all twelve war horses came alive and began to wag their heads and tails.

Ordinary people have never seen such a scene, and naturally they are all shocked.

"Boom! Boom!"

There was a dull vibration on the ground.

Twelve stone horses began to run along the special track surrounded by iron railings.

Wang Fen stood on tiptoe, with a look of anticipation on her face: "I don't know what's new today?"

Since the birth of the stone horse, different tricks have been played every day, so many people come to see it every day.

"Boom! Boom!"

The sound of horseshoes became more and more intensive, which meant that the herd of horses was running faster and faster.

Five seconds later.

The sea of ​​people suddenly boiled.

"My God!"

"Oh my God!"

Exclamations such as the above sounded in pieces.

I saw raging flames emanating from the four hooves of each stone horse.

At a glance, this group of stone horses suddenly turned into flaming horses.

What's even more astonishing is that every time the horse's hoof hits the ground, a ball of flames will be left on the ground, and then a lifelike fiery red lotus will bloom.

The stone horses ran around together, leaving a circle of flaming red lotuses on the track.

Such scenes can indeed be called shocking.

*
Guard the palace.

Watching the image projected by the profound array, the two guarding monks couldn't help being speechless.

It wasn't until one minute later that the group of stone horses stopped galloping and returned to their original positions and turned into stone sculptures again, and the two came back to their senses.

Xu Daoming, the guardian Xuanshi, had a rather complicated expression: "Tsk tsk, colorful flowers appeared on the ground where the horses ran past yesterday, ice lotus appeared on the ground yesterday, and today it turned into fire lotus."

Zhao Qihuan, another guardian Xuanshi, couldn't help sighing: "This kid has too many tricks!"

be honest.

As Xuanshi, the two also felt an eye-opening feeling.

*
Inside the council building.

The female secretary, Xie You, stood behind the huge glass window, overlooking the flaming red lotus covering the runway, her seductive red lips suddenly opened into an "O" shape.

Just beside her.

Cheng Han didn't pay much attention to the scene on the square.

He was chatting with his little girlfriend through his black cat sheriff: "Want to watch the fire horse?"

He and Qian Qingqing have such remote chats almost every day several times.

During this period of time, although the two sides have not met each other, they are not unfamiliar with each other at all, but their relationship has become closer.

soon.

Here comes the little girl's answer.

"miss you!"
