Yipin County Magistrate: Start with invincibility

Chapter 92
Qin Feng's arrangement made the bandits puzzled.

During the meal that day, several people put their axes aside and got together, eating dry food and chatting.

"You say, why did our county magistrate ask to cut down so many trees?"

"Maybe it's for better land reclamation next year. In fact, I think it's better to reclaim land while cutting. Look at the slope we made, how beautiful is it?"

"Forget it, Mr. Qin is also doing it for our own good. It's freezing cold and the ground is not easy to dig, so it's better to chop some wood."

"This is also..."

"However, with so much wood back, how come there is no more space for piles of wood? Where did this wood... go?"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, all shaking their heads, everyone had the same doubt in their eyes.

A person suddenly said: "I heard from Yan Li that Mr. Qin has raised a group of carpenters in the county government. I don't know what they are doing."

"I think he wants to use these logs to build a house! No matter how good an official is, he has selfish intentions... No, I'm going to walk around the county town tonight to see if there is an extra house somewhere. If it's really for building a house , I don’t want to work so hard!”

"Let's watch together!"

The bandits had just discussed and heard a voice from the side: "Don't work hard? Is it possible that you still want to go back to be bandits?"

The person who came was none other than Wan Kunming.

"One by one, don't think about it."

"Master Qin is definitely not what you think."

"The wood is indeed used by carpenters. I know some inside information. In the spring of next year, you will naturally know what the wood is used for. Don't talk nonsense now. Honestly, it's time to cut trees! vigorously!"

"We put our heart and soul into it, and Lord Qin will also give us our whole heart in the future! I, Wan Kunming, am willing to be your guarantor for Lord Qin!"

When the bandits heard this, they immediately drooped their heads.

When Wan Kunming was in the cottage, he had the right to speak. He was regarded as a think tank next to the leader, and now he still has a bit of weight when he speaks.

Both he and Yan Li acted as guarantors for Qin Feng, which was also the reason why these bandits were willing to work.

Getting the approval of Yan Li alone is nothing.

But even Wan Kunming also recognized Qin Feng, which definitely explained the problem.

Wan Kunming was known for his loyalty. Before Heishanzhai came to Ninghai County, he had conflicts with other bandits elsewhere.

At that time, Heishan Village was weak, and in a confrontation, the leader was seriously injured, so he could only hide back to his lair.

But Wan Kunming was caught, and all the bandits thought they had played a game, and the leader was also killed. Wan Kunming, a scholar, must not be able to withstand the torture. As long as he spit out the location of the Black Mountain Village, the enemy will definitely come and kill them all.

But what everyone didn't expect was that Wan Kunming's chest and back were scalded by the red-hot iron so that no skin was good, and he didn't tell the location of the black village.

This is a ruthless man!He is a very loyal and ruthless person!

After the leader healed his wounds, he led people to attack the enemy's stronghold at night and killed most of the enemy in his sleep before rescuing Wan Kunming.

From then on, everyone in the cottage respected him as a man.

He believes in Qin Feng so much, these bandits, what else do they believe?
"Mr. Wan calm down, wait, I just can't figure out where all these logs have gone for no reason, so..."

"Hmph, Mr. Qin is full of magical skills, even I, Wan Kunming, admire him. How can you bandits understand? From now on, you don't have to think so much!"

Wan Kunming taught them a lesson, and at last he twitched his lips and leaked some news: "I just want to tell you that Mr. Qin will use these logs to water the terraced fields next year. Just wait and see."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Wan Kunming didn't tell the whole story, he even played a charade, laughed a few times, turned and left.

In fact, it's not that he doesn't want to say it, but it's really hard to explain clearly to these bandits.It will be clear when they see the real thing.

The bandits became even more confused and confused.

"What? Water? Use wood to water?"

"Did I hear you right? Mr. Wan said that Qin Feng wants to use wood to water?"

"This is really strange. Could it be that he wants to make a big wooden barrel?"

"You can make wooden barrels...you don't need so much wood. How many barrels are you making? People only have two hands, two legs, and shoulders on both sides. You can only pick two barrels at a time..."

"Hey, I'm afraid I want to make wooden barrels and sell them? We eat so much every day, don't we need to spend money?"

"I'm afraid it's not that simple, but...don't think about it, just work. We will see it in the spring of next year."

The days passed quickly, and the new year is here.

This year, due to Qin Feng's arrears, the problem of grain tax was solved, and every household of the farmers had enough grain to eat.

Every household is very grateful to Qin Feng. On the New Year's Day, there is an endless stream of people who come to the Yamen to deliver things.

Some deliver food, some chicken, duck, eggs, milk, and pork, beef, and mutton.

Although each household didn't send much, but together, the yamen named Qin Feng could barely hold it.

None of the yamen servants and bandits working for Qin Feng have seen this scene.

Perhaps in the entire Great Zhou Kingdom, there is no second county magistrate who can receive this kind of treatment. Qin Feng was so happy from ear to ear, he was very satisfied.

Who said that to be an upright official is poor and white?

He is an upright official, and the things he received during the Chinese New Year alone are worth several thousand taels of silver.

He asked the cooks in the yamen to keep the fire going for a whole day, no matter what the ingredients were, the tables in the yard of the yamen were full, and the tables and tables were filled to the brim.

The yamen servants, bandits, and Qin Feng also greeted some representatives of the common people, and had a different New Year's Eve dinner in the yamen.

The only fly in the ointment is... the things on the table are a little monotonous.

The meat is sufficient, but the cooking method is a bit rough.There are few vegetables and dishes, and the food is also millet products. There is not even some white noodles or rice.

At this moment in Dazhou, most of the rice is produced in the south, because there are many paddy fields in the south, which are suitable for rice growth.

There is wheat in the north, but compared with millet, wheat is more demanding on the climate, and it needs good weather to have a good harvest.

Millet is slightly better, the required growth environment is not so harsh, and the light requirement is also smaller, so it is widely planted.

But this... Qin Feng is not satisfied.

He is a modern person who traveled here, if he can't even manage to "eat well", then he is too incompetent.

"Next year... next year, our county will grow rice! Grow wheat! Grow corn! Grow... all kinds of vegetables and fruits! Next year and Chinese New Year, every household in our county will have colorful things on their desks!"

Qin Feng drank some wine, was dizzy, and suddenly stood up and announced to the people.

The people were moved and felt that this was a beautiful wish, but it was not easy to achieve it?

The people closest to him quickly stepped forward to support Qin Feng, who was staggering and was about to lose his footing. He patted him on the back and said, "Master Qin's intentions, we all know! You drink too much, go to rest early. ..."

"No! It's not just my heart! What I said...is true! I am Qin Feng! The county magistrate of Ninghai County! Say it... do it!"

Qin Feng pushed the common people, made great wishes, his head sank, and he passed out.

This was just a small episode, and no one took it seriously.
