Hope for luck

Chapter 30
Yin Weian thought he had reminded Gao Pan of something very important, but in Gao Pan's heart, he didn't think so.

"With people like this to suppress the bandits, I'm afraid the bandits would turn around and run away before they saw it..."

After Gao Pan glanced at Yin Weian indifferently, he ignored him and walked towards the middle-aged scribes.

Seeing this, Yin Weian instantly felt that he was very wronged. He reminded Gao Pan with 'good intentions', but he didn't expect that Gao Pan didn't appreciate it, but he even sneered!

However, Gao Pan's 'killing and decisive' action just now still made him feel a little surprised!
At a certain moment, he even felt that Gao Pan was not like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, but a veteran who had experienced many battles.

"The two of you are shocked. There is such a person in this county. It's because I didn't manage it well. I'm here to accompany you two!"

Gao Pan clasped his hands at the two of them and said, keeping his posture very low.

He could tell at a glance that this middle-aged scribe was not an ordinary person, but like a counselor. Facing the threats of these people, he was not afraid at all, but instead argued hard.

As for the young man beside him, Gao Pan was even more frightened, because he felt that this man was very dangerous. Looking at his eyes, he felt like he was being targeted by a tiger!
"It turned out that it was the magistrate of Dantang County who showed me that I met the magistrate at Xiazhangshun Mountain..."

The middle-aged scribe hurriedly saluted, said his name, and said politely:

"The magistrate is serious. There are not many villains. Since the magistrate has already dealt with it, it is too late for me to be grateful. How dare I ask the magistrate to apologize!"

Hearing this, Gao Pan smiled and said:
"No matter how you say it, it's because I'm not strict in my rule. If there are such rioters, why don't I invite you two to have a cup of tea? To show my apology to you two!"

Zhang Shunshan heard the words, turned his head and looked at the young man beside him, then bowed and said:
"How dare I refuse the invitation of the magistrate, we just accept it, and please don't say sorry, the magistrate, the two of us can't afford it!"

"It's okay, I'm not a god in the sky, how can I not make mistakes, two, please!"

Gao Pan waved his hand and asked the two to invite first.

Seeing this, Zhang Shunshan didn't dare to go ahead, so he politely let Gao Pan go first.

Seeing this, Gao Pan no longer persisted, walked ahead on his own, and asked Yin Wei'an where there is a tea house or tea house nearby?

Yin Weian didn't understand why Gao Pan was so polite to the two strangers, but he still pointed out a direction.

Peng Ming has been following Gao Pan respectfully, he only remembers his sister's warning to him at the moment.

Let him follow Gao Pan well, and don't cause trouble for Gao Pan. Whatever Gao Pan says, he will do!
……

Soon, there was a tea shed next to the official road into the city, and business travelers passing by would stop to rest.

Gao Pan asked the waiter to prepare a few tables, and served tea and snacks for everyone, including his entourage, of course.

The tea money was naturally given by Yin Weian, which made Yin Weian embarrassed, but facing Gao Pan's questioning, Yin Weian had no choice but to pay the bill obediently.

When Deng Wenshan saw this scene, he was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Yin Wei'an, who has always been very stingy, would be willing to spend money for Gao Pan, which is really rare.

"You two, there are only crude tea and unappealing snacks in this tea shed, I hope you don't dislike it!"

At this moment, Gao Pan waved his hand and said to Zhang Shunshan and the two with a smile.

"My lord is serious again. Since my lord doesn't dislike it, why should the two of us dislike it? It's just that it's rare for your lord to spend money!"

Zhang Shunshan still said very politely.

"Well, I'm not afraid of the two jokes. Right now, our Dantang County is really in dire straits. On the one hand, there are bandits from Zhongli Mountain, and on the other hand, there is a lack of water and bad harvests. The people's life is very hard..."

Gao Pan suddenly changed the topic and began to feel sad about current events.

After Zhang Shunshan heard this, his eyes flickered, and he said quickly:

"There must be an adult here, and the situation will become much better from now on..."

"It's hard to say, as you have seen, those few people who are strong and brave, don't pay attention to me as a county magistrate at all. Besides, they are not practicing in the camp, but they come out to tease women and do nothing. If you really meet the bandits on Zhongli Mountain, you might run away as soon as you see a U-turn!"

Gao Pan shook his head and said sadly.

"You can't say that. No matter how you say it, the regiment training camp also has regular weapons and armor. Those bandits are just a mob. If your lord wants to practice these village bravery and destroy a small cottage, wouldn't it be easy for you?"

Zhang Shunshan said very boldly, it seems that in his eyes, the bandits in Zhonglishan are not worth mentioning at all.

When Gao Pan heard this, his heart moved, and he said calmly:
"I have never had any experience in training soldiers, and I don't know how to lead soldiers to fight. If you have any high-level opinions, sir, please feel free to advise!"

Hearing this, Zhang Shunshan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head again and again:

"I can't afford to be called a gentleman by my lord. I am afraid that my lord will be disappointed when I am a villager in the lower mountains. There is no high opinion!"

"Why do you have to be like this, sir? When I first saw him, I felt that he must have the ability to plan strategies. I don't expect him to help me. I just hope that he can give me some pointers. I will thank you for the people of Dantang County first." !"

But Gao Pan seemed to recognize him, lowered his posture, and asked Zhang Shunshan for advice.

"This...Since that's the case, I'll make a fool of myself..."

Seeing this, Zhang Shunshan had no choice but to nod, and offered Gao Pan a strategy to suppress the bandits.

"Thank you, sir, for your pointers, it really enlightened me..."

After Gao Pan heard this, he was very happy. He picked up his teacup and toasted Zhang Shunshan.

Seeing this, Zhang Shunshan looked at Gao Pan with complicated eyes, and hurriedly evaded a few words politely.

After talking for a while, Gao Pan got up to say goodbye:

"You two, I still have something to do, so I will go first. If there is something to do, feel free to come to the county government to find me. I think I can handle most of the things in Dantang County!"

"Thank you, Lord Magistrate, for your hospitality. The two of us will definitely remember your kindness. Let's go slowly, Lord!"

Zhang Shunshan and the others also got up quickly, bowed and sent Gao Pan and the others away respectfully.

Looking at the backs of Gao Pan and the others going away, the young man beside Zhang Shunshan suddenly said:

"Mr. Zhang, this Gao Pan doesn't look as unbearable as the rumors. If he can really manage Dantang County well, it would be a good thing!"

Zhang Shunshan didn't directly express his attitude when he heard the words, but thought for a while, then sighed and said:
"He can't help it. He was pushed out to take the blame. It's hard to pay for the autumn food alone!"
