Chapter 423 Before going to the gambling table

The common people of Liaodong County responded positively to the official recruitment. Almost all those who were not the only son in the family and were of appropriate age came to apply.

I heard that those who become soldiers are given winter coats and vests. This treatment is on the same level as the head of his village.

When more people come to apply, the officer in charge of recruiting can select the best.

In this way, there will be losers.The teenagers who were not selected were disappointed.

But the recruiting officers encouraged them not to give up. The reason they were not selected was because the entire Liaodong County and even Pingzhou had restrictions on the number of soldiers.There will be hope for them to join the militia organized by the township next year.

As soon as new recruits enter the military camp, their winter coats and vests are handed out.

Everyone was very happy and trained hard.

Liaodong County, government office

Early in the morning, Alice escorted Lu Songli to the government office.

At the door, I met Xue Xu.

"Hello, Mrs. Six."

"Good morning, Mr. Xue."

Lu Songli said hello and went in.

"Two——Mr. Xue." Alice behind Lu Songli nervously almost shouted the wrong name.

Xue Xu glanced at Alice. She must have eaten enough during this period, and Alice had actually grown a little taller.

"Protect the Sixth Madam well, you know?" Xue Xu told her.Master Qin Liu went to Xuantu County and was unable to pick up Mrs. Qin Liu, so Alice took over the entire escort job.

Alice nodded seriously and agreed.

……

"Mrs. Qin Liu, if we act like this, we are suspected of being kind to the people." Xue Xu had to remind Lu Songli.

Lu Songli smiled and said, "Mr. Xue, you are worrying too much. My father is the ambassador of the border area, and it is his duty to benefit the people of the area."

She knew he was talking about the many winter coats and vests they had given out at once.More than 6000 pieces, almost all have been distributed.

Nowadays, both the soldiers in the military camp and the common people are grateful to her father, the governor, and her father's prestige is unprecedentedly high.

"I'm just afraid of people who are interested -" Regarding the current rapid development of Liaodong County, Xue Xu has mixed emotions.

"With so many soldiers, we can't watch them suffer from hunger and cold, right?"

"Master Lu is highly righteous, and the Sixth Lady is highly righteous."

Of course Lu Songli knew what Xue Xu was worried about.If she had to choose between developing herself and hiding her ambitions, she would choose to develop herself.

As for the thoughtful people Xue Xu said, Lu Songli was not worried.

Xie Zhan is a smart man. They are all thinking about the Song family in Dali. This is the golden period for them to strive to gain nutrition from all parties and strengthen themselves. You can tell by looking at him running around busy recruiting talents during this period.

Once the two of them take action to reveal their ambitions to expose each other in front of Song Mo, it is the time for them and all the heroes who are qualified to compete for this land to bring their chips to the table and make big bets.

Before that, no matter who said they were kind to the people, they would not recognize it. In short, don't feel guilty first.

Northeast of Houcheng, a new military camp was built next to Jintaizhuang in Xuantu County.

A group of new recruits wearing military uniforms were running peacefully in the snow.

There was a small group of people among them, running and cursing at the same time.

"Chen Jinlong, don't run away, you traitor!"

"Chen Jinlong, do you hear me telling you not to run away? How could you make peace with the government and lie to us? Where is your conscience?"

"That's right, thank you for trusting us so much!"

"Beep-"

As a sharp whistle sounded, everyone stopped. Some were sitting directly on the snow, while others were leaning on tree branches.

Chen Jinlong was far away from Meng Jingfeng and others, but he was still glared at by them.

Chen Jinlong panted and moved further away, "Don't keep blaming me. It's only because of your dishonesty that you have experienced this."

Are they dishonest?Hearing Chen Jinlong's words, Meng Jingfeng and others' hearts sank, but their mouths were still tough, so they asked, "Where do you start with this?"

"You don't think that the things you buried in the cottage are still there, do you?" Chen Jinlong decided to reveal the secret to them, so that they would not think that they still have money.

"How do you know -" I buried something in the cottage?

"Wait, you buried it?"

"You buried it too?"

Meng Jingfeng, Feng Shuo and others looked at each other. Are all the belongings they buried gone?

Lu Dayou looked at this, then looked at that, and clicked his tongue twice, quite a bit gloating. Among all the people, he was the most honest, so he found a place to hide some gold!Each one of these people had several places to put their money.

"Why not? Did the Liaodong Army dig three feet into the ground and dig it out?" He remembered that he hid it very secretly.Meng Jingfeng asked his question.

"You will know later." When Chen Jinlong said this, his expression was a bit unpredictable.

That's too much. I took away their belongings and didn't tell them!

"I'll give you half a cup of tea to prepare for the next training. After overcoming these obstacles, crawl forward two kilometers!" Qin Sheng announced expressionlessly.

Meng Jingfeng, Lu Dayou, Chen Jinlong, Gao Lei, Ding Han and others looked at each other in confusion as they looked at the various obstacles in front of them.

"He is so young, why does he have so many ideas to trouble people?"

Running with weights, crawling in the snow, practicing over obstacles, shooting with moving targets, shooting on horseback, etc., every one of them is very tiring.

Zhu Dazhuang beside him rolled his eyes, "What are you complaining about? Is the rice not fragrant or the meat not delicious?"

None of them spoke, and the food they had now was really good, ten times better than the original Houcheng military camp.

In addition, Master Jiang, who is currently cooking for their camp, is very good at cooking. Even if it is a big pot of rice, it is also delicious.

When it came to food, the discussion became more lively.

"Nonsense, this Master Jiang is Master Chen's apprentice. He has already become an apprentice. He is a seventy-eight percent true disciple."

"I see that Master Jiang is quite young, and Master Chen is quite nice, allowing his disciples to learn skills so easily."

As the saying goes, the law is not taught lightly and the Tao is not sold cheaply.It is not easy for everyone to raise a family. It is difficult for everyone to find a special skill to guard the family. If it is easily spread to others, it may cause the disciples of the church to starve to death.Therefore, many times, after apprenticeship, there are three years of apprenticeship and two years of service.The first two years are spent serving the master, and it is only in the third year that you can learn something.But I only learned a little bit about it, and the master who knows the skills at the bottom of the box will not teach it easily.

"Nonsense, of course Master Chen has a better skill." Zhu Dazhuang muttered.

"Dazhuang, what do you know? Tell me, and my brothers will also listen."

Zhu Dazhuang is from Tianshui Village and a soldier of the Qin family.

He knew some inside information. Master Chen was hired by their sixth wife and held three positions. He could only take charge of three places. The previous county governor's house, Liaodong Restaurant and traveling with the army.

Master Chen spends most of his time cooking at Liaodong Restaurant.Only when their sixth wife wanted to eat something new, he would go to the magistrate's mansion to try out the new dishes.Occasionally, he would come to the military camp and cook one or two meals for them to improve their food. That was also when Mr. Liu was there.

"No need to ask around, you just need to know that Liaodong Restaurant is going to release new dishes." The Sixth Madam ate good new dishes, which are usually launched in Liaodong Restaurant.

Liaodong Restaurant is also opened by the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce.

"Liaodong Restaurant." Chen Jinlong and others smacked their lips.

Since Liaodong Restaurant opened, many new dishes have been unheard of.

Everyone who has tried it said that they wanted to try it themselves when they were still the owners of the cottage.But Liaodong Restaurant was open in Houcheng, so they didn't dare to go there. They only dared to ask their subordinates to pack it up quietly and bring it back.It was indeed delicious. After eating it, they wanted to try it themselves.After all, the taste of the packaged ones is definitely one or two points worse than the fresh ones, and I don’t know how delicious the fresh ones are.

"After the holiday, let's go to Liaodong Restaurant for a meal together?" Chen Jinlong suggested.

"Stop dreaming, are you rich? The food at Liaodong Restaurant is very expensive." Meng Jingfeng poured cold water on him.

Chen Jinlong:......

"Chen Jinlong, does this look like retribution? If our gold, silver and jewelry were still there, and the rich and famous would take you one, it would be no problem at all. Now it's better, everyone is pauper!"
