When a passerby becomes a princess

Chen Fan took a black oil-paper umbrella and walked through the streets of Qingshi. He had just entered the gate of the county government office when he saw the master secretary excitedly going out with a thick stack of paper in his hand.

"Master Chen just went to inspect the embankment?" The master's old face was wrinkled with a smile, a bit like a chrysanthemum in August.Since the beginning of June, Beimo County has ushered in a rare rainy season in a year. For a month in a row, the torrential rain almost fell from morning to night.

"Yes." Chen Fan nodded expressionlessly. "There is no problem with the embankment, but there are people guarding it."

The master didn't mind his cold face, everyone in the county government knew that although Master Chen and Qin Huwei always had a cold face, they were definitely not bad.He sighed lightly, and said, "It's fortunate that there is a princess, otherwise there will be serious floods this year."

It is true that northern Xinjiang is usually severely arid, but the annual heavy rainy season is often flooded.There is no way to do this, because usually there is little water and the river bed is not high. When the rainy season comes, it will not be able to accommodate such a large flow of water.Although there are embankments, those shoddy embankments are of no use at all.

Since March of this year, Lin Qiu has asked people to dig reservoirs and canals in several townships, which are used for irrigation at ordinary times, and can be used to divert water during the heavy rainy season. So far, there has been no damage to the embankment.

Chen Fan nodded, looking at the stack of papers in the master's arms.

"This is a new novel." The master book patted the stack of papers and said, ""Journey to the West" has been published, and this new novel is called "The Legend of the White Snake". This is the first story about a mortal, the princess is really talented."

Chen Fan's eyes darkened for a moment, he nodded again, turned and left.

The chief secretary looked at his back and smiled. This master Chen said a few words before, but now he has become like a princess, and he has become a boring gourd.

Just last month, the prince of the state of Hu sent Hu Seda, the tribal leader, to lead more than [-] troops. The traitors secretly opened the Pingchengguan gate and attacked Beimo County. All the people in Moxian County defended the city bravely, not only captured Hu Seda with tricks, but also killed nearly ten thousand enemies.Later, the great general Lin Lian sent troops to rescue them, and drove the remaining nearly ten thousand beards out of the pass.

It's a pity that when the matter was thoroughly investigated afterwards, Liao Hai, the guard of Heisei Gate, hanged himself, his wife disappeared, and the young general who opened the city gate was killed and thrown in the well. The clues were completely broken.

Afterwards, General Lin Lian suddenly took Crown Prince Liang Xi as his apprentice and taught him the art of war and martial arts. Liang Xi resigned from the post of magistrate of Beimo County and followed Lin Lian to the border camp. The magistrate of Beimo County was temporarily taken over by the Crown Princess palm.

In the wing of the county magistrate's office, Lin Qiu was writing something on his small desk.Although Liang Xi went to Daying, Lin Qiu still kept his desk, and he still worked on the small desk next to him.

When Chen Fan came in, the room was filled with the aroma of scented tea.

The aristocrats of Daliang Kingdom love to drink tea, and there are various ways of drinking tea, some are boiled with salt, some are added with five-spice powder, some are picked and then ground into powder, and there are also black tea, green tea, and white tea like the other world. etc.

Lin Qiu sent people to collect a large number of flower buds, and made them into scented tea and shipped them to the capital for sale. It actually attracted the ladies in the capital and led another trend in the capital.

At the same time, wool blankets, riding boots, skin bags, etc. were also transported into the capital.

The business of woolen blankets was booming almost immediately, because seeing the two carpets of Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace, those high-ranking officials and nobles asked all over the world what they were and where they were sold.So when the brand of Fuman Weaving Blankets was put up, all kinds of blankets were sold out in just one day after opening, and it became a store that had to close and wait for goods after only one day of opening.

There were also riding boots and leather bags before, but the riding boots were all made of cloth, and the better riding boots could be embroidered with various flowers and birds, which were similar for men and women.Most of the skin bags are sack-shaped, closed, and can be hung on the waist.

However, the boots of Fuman Leather Goods are divided into men and women, such as small high heels, waterproof platforms, boots, short boots, laces, buckles, embroidery, heat transfer, hollowing... only you can't think of it, there is nothing they can't do.The skins of Fuman Leather may be called leather bags, such as single-shoulder, double-shoulder, handbags, messenger bags... big and small, all kinds.

Moreover, when these leather boots and bags are transported to the capital, they have to go to Fuman Silver House for secondary processing. Many leather boots and bags will be decorated with some jewelry. Of course, the price will be much higher.

Chen Fan glanced at Lin Qiu at the door, then turned and went to the wing dedicated to the master.

Opening the oil-paper umbrella and leaning against the corner to drain the water, Chen Fan began to classify the various materials on the table. The last attack by Huzi caused great damage to Beimo County. Almost all the houses in Wan's hometown were burned down. Wan and Shayang, although the houses were not destroyed, Qingmiao was also destroyed by Hu Zi's horseshoe just like Wan's hometown.

Although the court will issue subsidies for this kind of thing, when the money arrives, it may be next year, so Lin Qiu took some money from his own private house and rented many warehouses in the city for temporary settlement. The villagers whose homes were destroyed bought rice and distributed it.

Of course, these are not free, they have to be paid for by work.

The elderly and children were sent to the nursing home for the time being. Other young adults, male or female, if they could find work in the city, that would be the best. If not, they had to join the reconstruction team.

The first is the replanting of the crops. Although it is only at this time, if the cold snap comes later this year, there is still hope for some harvests, which is better than nothing.

Then came the reconstruction of the house.Lin Qiu had been to Wanjia once before, and it was the time when the mountain was blown up and the canal was repaired. The dilapidated thatched huts and rammed earth walls are very dilapidated, but the interesting thing is that the terrain of Wanjia is actually the same as that in the game. The topography of a player's village is exactly the same, which aroused Lin Qiu's interest. He wanted to transform Wan's hometown into a beautiful place like the player's village.

Naturally, a lot of labor is required. The villagers in Wan's hometown had their houses destroyed, and their property and food were robbed. Of course, they are willing to use work for food in order to eat. Besides, this is the place to live in the future. Well done.

Some people from Beisang County also came to work. This time, Beisang County suffered a heavy loss. At that time, there was another bearded team who sneaked off with Hu Seda. When that team arrived in Beisang County, Beisang County Sang County didn't have time to react at all. Hu Zi went straight into the city, not only killing nearly [-] people, but even the county magistrate. After that, he robbed a lot of property and burned down the entire county. , and then burned, killed and looted in several villages below, and did not kill them out of the pass until Lin Lian's army arrived the next day.

The affairs of Beisang County cannot be left to Chen Fan's concern. Apart from being responsible for the reconstruction of Wan's hometown, he only cares about one thing, and that is whether there is any shadow of the Chen family in the matter of stealing the prison. It's just that this matter is of great importance , he didn't even dare to write a letter to ask, so he had to put it aside for the time being.

At dinner time, Chen Fan finally sorted out all the materials and planned to go back to rest. When he came out, he happened to see Lin Qiu coming out of the county magistrate's wing.

"Crown Princess." Chen Fan saluted respectfully.

Lin Qiu nodded, seeing that he seemed to be fine, turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing that there was no one following him, Chen Fan stepped forward and said, "Crown Princess, I have something to ask you."

Lin Qiu turned around and stood still, with some doubts in his big black eyes.

"I..." Chen Fan didn't know what to say for a while, he said yes a few times, and the scene of Liang Xi bending down to kiss Lin Qiu that he saw in the tower that day suddenly flashed through his mind.

Lin Qiu didn't move, but just looked at him fixedly.

"I want to ask..." He looked at Lin Qiu's moist and thin lips. Under the reflection of the wind lamp, the water on the lips made him purse his lips involuntarily, and said, "Prince Concubine has worked so hard every day, have you ever felt tired?"

Lin Qiu shook his head.Although his body is not good, he can recover as long as he rests. As for his spirit, he hasn't felt tired yet.

"Then you won't regret it?" Chen Fan couldn't help asking.There will be other people around that person, and there may even be no place for you, don't you worry at all?At that time, all the hard work and sincerity you have put in today will be gone, and you will only be sad.

"No." Lin Qiu tilted his head slightly, although he didn't quite understand what Chen Fan meant, but what is there to regret?

"What if you regret it in the future?" Chen Fan continued to ask, unwilling to give up.

"I won't regret it." Lin Qiu suddenly understood the meaning of the word "helpless", and he himself said no, why didn't he understand.He thought for a while, and said something clearly. "These are... what the prince wants to do and want to do."

It was just a very ordinary sentence, but it made Chen Fan's ears ring and his face turned pale. He lowered his head and said, "So... as long as he wants to do, you have to do it for him? Don't you regret it no matter what? "

"Yeah." Lin Qiu looked at him strangely and nodded.

After a while, Chen Fan cupped his hands and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Crown Princess."

Lin Qiu looked at him suspiciously again, then turned and left.

Chen Fan waited for him to go far before returning to the place where he lived, sat quietly for a long time, and took out the letter from home just delivered today from his bosom, which only meant "going home for a blind date".
