Chapter 18: Spring ploughing opens, two kinds of longevity [1/4 of the "Tadpole" League](1/2)

Assessment?

Wang Kande only felt that his head, which had just recovered a little, was starting to feel dizzy again.

He looked at the boy standing there and pressed his forehead reluctantly.

"What on earth is Chen Ke thinking? Is there no one to refute him? Does he regard Penglaizhou as his Baijia Palace?"

Wang Kande's face was cold. He stared at the boy and said, "Huo Shi will definitely not refute. After all, he is his student."

"Where's Jiang Joao?"

"Didn't that uneducated Jiang Ruoang have no rebuttal? No protest? Didn't he feel that it was unfair and shouldn't be assessed?"

The boy lowered his head: "No,"

"After this notice was posted, everyone agreed and supported Governor Chen's order."

"Chief Huo and Governor Jiang quickly expressed their opinions, saying that they would wait until the assessment is completed before returning to their own county."

"even......

The boy hesitated a little, but still said: "Even Mutar, the leader of the Laiyi tribe, expressed his support."

"He said that although he is a barbarian, he has been enlightened by the civilization of the Central Plains, so he must also participate in this assessment."

"He even issued a military order stating that if he failed the assessment, he would..."

Wang Kande looked at the young man's hesitating appearance and immediately asked angrily: "What about it?"

The young man lowered his head and said, "Just give up the position of clan leader to someone else."

Wang Kande seemed extremely calm at this time, even abnormally calm.

"So, Huo Shi also used this excuse to say that if he failed to pass the test, would he give up his position as the county guard? Abdicate in favor of someone more worthy?"

The boy nodded.

At this time, Wang Kande, who was angry, seemed calmer. He said in a deep voice: "It seems that Jiang Ruo'ang, Huo Shi, and Mutar have already contacted Chen Ke."

There was a hint of darkness in his eyes, like a gloomy path, revealing a sinister light.

"Were they probably connected before the last banquet?"

Wang Kande silently recalled the previous events while thinking about countermeasures in his mind.

He felt that this matter was really dangerous and difficult.

If these people join together, how can they still survive?

It seems...

We can only start with Mr. Fusu.

His eyes moved and he looked at the boy: "Ask the Fourth Brother to come over and tell him that I have something to tell him."

The boy responded and went down.

Wang Kande was lying on the bed alone, all the previous memories flashing in his mind, and his brain was spinning rapidly.

If the people from the Yi tribe have already contacted Chen Ke, then the mine is no longer safe.

It must be done without proof.

It's just a pity for those iron ores...

He sighed quietly, but at this time, compared with the iron ore, his own life was more important.

"never mind."

"As long as there is no evidence, as long as I don't admit it, as long as there is no physical evidence, I am the governor of Da Qin. Even if I am one level lower than Chen Ke, what does it matter?"

"He still can't just kill me without permission!"

"And as long as he hands me over to Xianyang City and into the hands of the emperor, I will have a way to save my life."

Wang Kande rubbed the thing in his hand, which was a jade pendant.

When Xiang Yu was executed before, Wang Kande had heard that although Mi Dong from the Chu State was imprisoned, he is still alive today.

This shows that some people from Chu State still have some influence in Da Qin.

And this...

It is also Wang Kande’s life-saving talisman.

After thinking about this, he immediately said to the empty place: "Take this jade pendant, rush all night, rush to Xianyang City, and hand it over to that person."

"Remember, you must be quick!"

A man walked out of the darkness, took the jade pendant from Wang Kande's hand, and then left quietly.

.........

Linzi County

Several Guizhou leaders holding new-style road guides were walking back and forth with a piece of paper in their hands, as if they were looking for something.

After a while, they arrived at the newly built City Property Department.

Just as we approached the Municipal Property Department, several clerks came forward, looked at the people and said, "Are you here to rent farm tools?"

Several people seemed a little embarrassed, they were all ordinary Guizhou people.

Although they have some qualifications in the village, they are just bigger ants in front of the small officials in the county government office.

Now that this little official was so polite, it actually made them a little flustered.

One of the leaders immediately said: "I have seen this official. We are here to rent farm tools."

He pointed at himself and then at the people next to him and said: "I am an elder from Sanli Township, this is an elder from Wang's hometown, and this is an elder from Luoyi Township."

Chen Fang was a little cautious: "Two days ago, we saw a notice posted in front of the county town, saying that before the Municipal Property Department of the county town is established, we can come directly to the county town to rent it with our own road guide and the seal of the village elders."

Seeing the reserved expressions of the three people, the clerk still smiled gently.

"Yes, it's exactly what the notice said."

"The Municipal Property Department has just opened its doors, and there are not many people there. Come with me and just do a simple registration."

With that said, he led the three people towards the center of the Yamen.

In a house, the clerk stopped, walked in, and knelt down in front of a bookcase.

"Elders from Sanli Township should register first."

"Did you bring the village elder's seal, your own road guide, and the document guarantee issued by your county government office?"

Chen Fang quickly took out a few documents from his arms and handed them to the clerk in front of him.

After the clerk checked them one by one, he registered his name, the county government office he belonged to, and the documents in the book. Then he copied one copy and stamped both copies with the seal of the Sanli Township elder he had just brought.

The seal of the Municipal Property Department, his own seal.

Then he looked at the village elder from Sanli Township and said, "How many farm tools do you need to rent? Logically speaking, a village can rent up to four farm tools of each type."

[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, www. Install the latest version. 】

"Each farm implement costs one and a half taels every five days."

After the village elder of Sanli Township mentioned the quantity and the number of days, the clerk wrote the number and the number of days on the paper, and then stamped it with the seals of the Municipal Property Department, the clerk himself, and the village elder himself, in duplicate.

"Take this thing, turn left after exiting this house, and then you can pay for the farm tools."

He smiled and said: "You need to pay twice the total amount. After you return the farm tools, the money will be returned to you."

"Do you have any questions?"

Chen Fang shook his head quickly. These were all mentioned in the notice.

He glanced at the other two village elders on the side, and then left with emotion in his heart.

........

The gate of the county town

Chen Fang and several carriages behind him slowly drove out of Linzi County, his eyes full of excitement.

He rented a total of four Chen's Shaofu cars and Chen's Shaofu plows for one month, which cost only forty-eight and a half taels in total.

And adding the forty-eight and a half taels of money that the clerk said was the mortgage, it was only ninety-six coins.

This is not a high price, after all, the Chen's truck and Chen's plow are really easy to use.

He sighed a little: "This year, we will probably have a good harvest!"

.........

The spring breeze is blowing gently on the earth. In this gentle spring breeze, spring plowing is proceeding in an orderly manner.

The Guizhou chiefs in Sanli Township were very excited when they saw Chen's Shaofu car and Chen's Shaofu plow being pulled back by the village elders.

After they tested the car and the usefulness of the plow, they became even more excited.

The plow and cart are at least half of the work left.
