The recorder breathed a sigh of relief at the time, and hurried over to salute and said, "Your envoy."

The person who came was Luo Shixing. If he hadn't been wearing the official gown of a fourth-rank official, the inspector would have suspected that some farmer was impersonating him.

He looked at Luo Shixing blankly and asked, "You...you are..."

What's up with this outfit?Did you roll in the mud?

Luo Shi walked over and said very helplessly: "To be honest, the inspection, didn't the imperial court fail to promote the No. There are too many differences in Lingnan, and it is difficult to deal with it. Yesterday, the test field was flooded because of the rain, and I happened to be observing the growth of rice, so I had to go down to rescue the rice, and I didn’t finish my work until this morning.”

The inspector was a little surprised: "You went to the fields yourself?"

Anyway, he is a dignified governor, so why did he go to the fields in person?

Luo Shixing said with a wry smile: "I can't do it without going to the fields myself. Those who were good at cultivating grain seeds before stayed in Beidai County to continue to improve. Now I am the only one who knows a little bit in Jiaozhou City."

Seeing him like this, the inspector really lost all anger.

Of course, the most important thing is that Luo Shixing is much better-looking than the rumors, even if he looks very embarrassed with mud spots at this time, it still has a bit of coarse cloth and hairpins that don't hide his national beauty.

Faced with such a look, as long as the other party is not riding wild on his neck, the inspector can tolerate it.

What's more, the other party is doing business, and for the sake of the people of the world, the majestic assassin went to the fields in person, which made the inspector feel good about him.

He hastily said, "You...you are not easy."

Luo Shixing waved his hand: "It's nothing, but the inspector came from a long distance, but I didn't go to greet him. It really shouldn't be. I have ordered someone to clean up the reception banquet. Please ask the inspector to rest for a while."

The inspector's journey was really full of dust and dust, and he really needed a place to change clothes and wash his hands.

It's just that after he entered the governor's mansion, he was stunned for a moment - the garden of the governor's mansion is still empty, and even the flowers and trees are nothing but weeds!

Seeing his surprised expression, Luo Shixing smiled reluctantly and said, "The inspector saw that he was laughing. The governor's mansion had been looted when the next official arrived. Later, he was busy with many affairs. After two rebellions, the labor force in the state city was also a little bit weaker. If there is not enough, there is no rush to sort it out.”

The inspector was in awe when he heard this. When he came, he passed through half the city. It is no exaggeration to say that some private houses looked more decent than the governor's mansion. But after the rebellion, even the governor's mansion was looted. How could the people avoid it? ?

Presumably, this little assassin first helped the people build houses, and then began to urge farming, so he didn't have time to manage his own house.

Fortunately, except that the garden is full of weeds and the pond has dried up, the house is tidy.

He smiled gently and said: "The land in the south of the Lingnan is humid and warm, even the wild grass and wild flowers are so luxuriant, it looks quite wild, which is not bad."

Luo Shixing also laughed and said, "That's true. The inspectors should not underestimate these weeds and wild flowers. Many of them are medicinal materials and can bear wild fruits. If you have nothing to do, you can pick some wild fruits to taste if you go out for a stroll. .”

While talking, he bent down and picked a purple fruit from a nearby bush and handed it to the inspector, saying: "This fruit has no Chinese name, it is all named by the local people, but it tastes good. The inspector should try it." .”

The fruit was at most as big as the belly of a thumb. The inspector took it, wiped it and threw it into his mouth. After biting it, the sweet and sour juice filled his mouth. Not to mention, it tasted really good.

The inspector said with a smile: "The envoy has a bit of a sense of peace and happiness."

Luo Shixing quickly waved his hands: "I'm not poor here, at least I have food, clothing, and a solid house to live in."

The inspector followed along, and asked in surprise when he approached the guest room, "Why isn't there a screen on this window?"

Luo Shixing said with a smile: "This is a glass window, and it is filled with colorless and transparent glass. Oh, glass is also a kind of colored glaze."

Inspector:? ? ? ?

Just now he felt that the Assassin's Mansion was so poor that he turned around and used the glass window?Even the imperial palace has never used glazed windows, this...is this too extravagant?

He walked over to observe the window carefully, and even touched it. The tentacles were cold and smooth, and indeed had no color. He looked extraordinary at first glance. Then he looked back at the overgrown courtyard behind him. He couldn't figure out what it was. what happened.

If it is said that the Jiaozhou assassination is for show, but it shouldn't be so obvious, right?

Luo Shi walked over and explained: "This thing is produced by my own glass workshop. The inspector should have been to Beidai County. There are shops on the roadside that sell things made of glass. Naturally, this thing is very expensive to buy. It's just my own glass shop. It’s also much cheaper to produce.”

Nowadays, even in Beidai County, not every household can afford glass. Most of them use the bright tile windows that Luo Shixing used before. Shells are much cheaper than glass, and they are not easy to break, unless the output of glass can increase. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to become as popular as later generations.

The inspector was a little curious after hearing this: "Your own workshop?"

Luo Shixing nodded: "Inadvertently discovered a new formula, the glass produced, oh, colored glaze is this kind of colorless and transparent, but it's a pity that this thing itself is very fragile, so it can only be sold around. Zhao and Bing Sui both came to buy it, but they had to be responsible for the transportation themselves, and made a lot of money at that time, so Beidai County had the scale it is today, but it is a pity that Mengshe Zhao and Bing Sui Zhao are very important to Jiaozhou now. Enmity, this business is naturally not easy to do, and now the workshop only makes things for home use."

The imperial court may not be unaware of his transactions with Mengshe Zhao and Bin Sui Zhao, and since this is the case, there is no need to cover it up, so it is better to say it openly.

The inspector originally wanted to ask why he didn't sell it elsewhere, but then thought of the rough roads when he came here.

Since this thing is easily broken, it is naturally not lucky to get out.

The inspector looked at the window again, and then entered his room. After entering, he saw a full-length mirror. He was shocked and said: "I have seen this thing in the palace before, this... oh, yes, It seems that you sent someone to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday."

Luo Shixing nodded: "Yes, this is also made of glass. When it was shipped to Luoyang, four copies of each type were shipped. When we arrived in Luoyang, we could make up a few. The loss rate on the road is too high."

The inspector walked around the mirror twice very rarely, and regretfully said after hearing this: "It is true."

Luo Shixing saw that his face was a little tired, so he cupped his hands and said, "Please ask the inspector to rest for a while, and I won't bother you."

After he finished speaking, he left the guest room, and after telling the servants to take good care of it, he ran all the way back to his courtyard and said, "Quickly, quickly, prepare the bath water for me, the mud is all dry on me!"

Cheng Jingwei came out and said, "It's been prepared for you a long time ago. I just told you not to go to the manor for the next two days. How can it be possible to cultivate grains suitable for the Central Plains in Lingnan?"

Luo Shixing took off his clothes very calmly, soaked them in the bucket, supported the edge of the bucket with both hands and only showed his head, and said, "Of course we must do what the above orders. You have to try it. After you try it and find it really doesn't work, you can explain it to me." Otherwise, the imperial court may think that we are passive and sabotage."

Cheng Jingwei reached for the cloth towel and said, "I'll wipe your back."

Luo Shixing immediately leaned on the edge of the bucket and said, "Come on."

When Cheng Jingwei walked over, he saw a strand of hair hanging from the smooth and fair back of the little lynx. The black hair and snow skin were distinct in black and white, and the contrast was very obvious.

His Adam's apple moved, and he stretched out his hand to gently lift the strand of hair up, and while helping Luo Shixing wipe his back, he asked, "The inspectors sent by the imperial court are more likely to see if the grain production is as stated in the memorial, and he came in a timely manner." It just so happened that if it was a little later and the harvesting was over, he might have to stay here for a few months."

His hands were soft yet firm, and Luo Shixing squinted his eyes comfortably and moaned and said, "It's fine if he stays for a while, and someone takes him to the county below for a walk, so that the court can know that Jiaozhou is still alive." Very poor."

Cheng Jingwei was unbearably tickled by his moaning, took a deep breath and found that his throat was itching, coughed lightly and said: "At night, ask him side-by-side, and find out what is the origin of the Yushi who impeached you. "

After he finished speaking, he waited for a long time without waiting for a response. He probed over and found that the little lynx had fallen asleep lying on the side of the bucket.

Cheng Jingwei was very helpless, he could only wash him off, wrapped him in a big bath towel and went back to the bedroom.

In order to avoid accidents, Cheng Jingwei sent him back and turned to Li Youdao.

Inspectors are generally good people. They have to be responsible to the imperial court, and deal with officials from all over the world. Their experience is not ordinary, and it is very difficult to learn something from them.

The little lynx is naturally at a disadvantage in terms of age, and the other party is likely to fool him. At this time, the big guys need to come out.

After hearing this, Li Youdao smiled and said: "It turned out to be him. He was also a minister in the same palace in the past, but now he is sent to be an inspector. It can be seen that life is not easy, so let me ask."

Of course, even if you ask, you have to wait until the time is almost the same. The dinner in the evening is the best time.

Luo Shixing woke up and heard that Li Youdao was going to say something. After thinking about it seriously, he urgently ordered distilled wine.

If this thing is not mass-produced, there is actually no technical content. After all, the current distillation vessels are very mature, but they are not used for distilling wine.

He didn't dare to make the degree of distilled wine too high, basically it was forty or fifty degrees.

Of course, this drink is for inspectors, and the alcohol content for Li Youdao and others is very low—about 20 degrees, which is a little higher than turbid wine.

The inspector was very pleasantly surprised when he heard that Luo Shixing had specially brought out the newly brewed wine to welcome him, especially the white wine was clear and beautiful.

So he drank a lot in this joy. If Luo Shixing didn't worry that he would be so drunk that he wouldn't be able to talk normally, he didn't dare to give him too much to drink. Later, all he was given was plain water, but because he had already drunk almost, his tongue might be numb. No drink came out and the wine was replaced.

Li Youdao saw that things were almost the same, so he pretended to ask casually: "Is the court very stable now, and the censor has nothing to do? Why do you keep staring at Jiaozhou every time? I don't know what they are for."

The inspector's reaction was a bit slow, and he said after a long time: "Why don't they participate, that censor... hiccup, that censor was originally recommended by the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and he did nothing after taking office. Do something...something to do."

Minister of the Ministry of Officials?

Luo Shixing and Cheng Jingwei looked at each other, such words made sense, could it be said that it was the Minister of the Ministry of Officials who targeted them?

But this news came too easily.
