Chapter Seventy-Six: Fighting the Autumn Wind

"Who's talking to this officer?"

Seeing that someone dared to interrupt his words, Xiahou Xiang immediately changed his face, and turned his head a little annoyed, only to find that a young military attache Zhan wearing a five-rank flying bear official uniform not far away was standing not far away looking at him, with a hint of unkindness in his expression.

This person is Yang Feng, who has just returned from modern society, and he has just come out of the warehouse located in the mountain behind Qianhusuo to see this scene. I saw him striding in front of Xiahou Xiang, arching his hands and saluting: "Xiaguan Jiangdong is a thousand households, and Yang Feng has seen an adult, but I don't know the adult's surname." ”

"Bold!"

It was still Gou Yangtian, but I saw him jump out and point at Yang Feng and shouted: "You are just a thousand households, and when you see that the commander and the envoy don't pay homage, what crime should you be guilty of?" Aren't you afraid that the adults will punish you? ”

Yang Feng frowned when he heard this, his sharp eyes swept over Gou Yangtian, and sneered: "A hundred households, actually talking to Shangguan like this, is this the etiquette you are talking about?" And you keep talking about etiquette, that's good...... As a six-grade hundred-hundred-household, when you see this official of the five-grade thousand-household, should you also kneel down and pay homage? ”

"You ......" Gou Yangtian didn't expect that he would be accidentally caught by the other party, and he couldn't help but stop talking for a while.

"That's it!" Xiahou Xiang on the side saw that things had turned out like this, if he insisted on pursuing Yang Feng's disrespectful crimes, then he would drag his henchmen into the water, and this Yang Feng was too ignorant. He said with a calm face: "Yang Qianhu, this official has come to inspect the tuntian and military equipment of the Jiangdong Gate Qianhu Office, and I hope you can cooperate with the official to inspect." ”

"Of course, it is the duty of the adults to inspect the Thousand Households, and the lower officials should obey their orders." Yang Feng arched his hand, and then made a gesture of please.

Xiahou Xiang snorted lightly, and then led his troops forward, while Yang Feng, Geng Bingyi and other officers accompanied behind. Jiangdong Gate Thousand Households are wrapped with the city wall around the same as all the Thousand Households in the Ming Dynasty, the perimeter of the city wall is two miles and three hundred and twenty-five steps, three zhang and five feet high, the city wall is first built with earth, and the outside is covered with bricks and stones.

There are main streets and lanes in the thousand households, and the buildings in the fort have temples, archways, wells and other living building facilities in addition to residential buildings. In addition, there are also barracks, military granaries, horse farms and other important military facilities. There is also a unit in charge of armaments in the fort - the Armaments Bureau, the Divine Hangar and the Gunpowder Bureau, which collect and discharge firearms. A few hundred meters outside the fort, there is a competition ground for sergeants to practice, and a martial arts hall for officers to sit and command and rest. It's just that after hundreds of years, both the city walls and those buildings show a sense of historical vicissitudes, but now so many people are building roads and houses, and it has brought a thriving atmosphere to thousands of households.

After a cursory walk, Xiahou Xiang began to pant a little, and a layer of sweat beads appeared on his face, seeing his appearance, Yang Feng's heart couldn't help but feel a little disdainful, it seems that the body of this commander has long been hollowed out by the wine, and if there is a war, I am afraid that he will not even be able to run.

However, although he despised this top boss very much in his heart, he would not show it, and he immediately said with concern: "Commander, my lord, now that the weather is getting warmer and hotter, it is easy to suffer from wind and cold, you better go to the lower official's dwelling to do it, so that the lower official can take the wind and wash the dust for the adult." ”

Hearing this, Xiahou Xiang's face looked a little better, from just now to now, this guy finally said something decent, he nodded reservedly: "Okay, then let the guest be the host." ”

When everyone returned to the Thousand Households Mansion, several servants who had already received instructions had already prepared a few tables of wine banquets, and even the family members brought by Xiahou Xiang had divided two tables of banquets, seeing this Xiahou Xiang was even more satisfied, it seems that this Yang Feng still knows how to count etiquette.

After everyone sat down, under the leadership of Yang Feng, everyone began to toast Xiahou Xiang, and after a circle, the atmosphere in the room became more harmonious, and even the face of Gou Yangtian, who had been holding a straight face just now, eased a lot.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Xiahou Xiang put down his wine glass and said lightly: "Yang Qianhu, I heard that you recently opened a shop specializing in glass in Nanjing, and the business is unusually prosperous, no wonder this official came over this time and saw that Qianhu was building roads and houses everywhere." ”

When Yang Feng heard this, he immediately understood the meaning of this person, and it was estimated that he was suffering from pink eye. He put down the wine glass and his face was bitter: "My lord doesn't know, although Xiaguan has earned some silver, but these silver coins have not all fallen into Xiaguan's pocket, and I want to go to know that the Donglai Silver Building, which sells glass for Xiaguan, is made public by Cao Gong, the eunuch of Nanjing Town, and most of the glass sold by Xiaguan was given to Cao Gonggong, and only a small part was given to Xiaguan, and you have also seen it, recently, Xiaguan has gathered so many homeless people, and they want to eat, drink and Lazar, and every day just selling grain is a large sum of silver, saying ugly words, Today's lower officials look glamorous, but in fact they are a poor bastard. ”

"Hmmm......"

Hearing this, Xiahou Xiang's face was a little ugly, Yang Feng actually shouted poor in front of him, this is not only to give him face. However, Yang Feng then said: "But the Lord was able to come from afar to inspect this Thousand Households, it was a concern for the subordinate officials and your colleagues, and the lower officials and colleagues were also prepared a little careful, please command the Lord to be sure to appreciate his subordinates." ”

After speaking, Yang Feng took out a gift slip from his sleeve and handed it to Xiahou Xiang.

Xiahou Xiang pretended to excuse himself and accepted it downhill along the donkey, especially when he saw the numbers on the gift list, his originally not very good-looking face turned cloudy in an instant, and he smiled after snorting...... I salute you. ”

"Please ......"

"Your Excellency, please ......"

After eating and drinking, Xiahou Xiang left contentedly with the two hundred taels of silver that Yang Feng gave him.

Outside the door of the Thousand Households, watching Xiahou Xiang and the rest of the family leave, Geng Bingyi and a group of officers did not look very good. Cao Yingmao said even more hatefully: "The commander actually went to the Thousand Households to fight the autumn wind in person, this appearance is too ugly, right?" ”

"That's it!" Yang Feng waved his hand and said, "There must be someone making trouble here, otherwise this guy wouldn't have come so coincidentally." But after all, they are our top bosses, we can try not to offend if we can, and it is not too late to give him a look after we are strong in the future. But you should also pay attention, this officer will go all out to train after he comes back this time, I hope you must be prepared mentally, if you can't meet the requirements of this officer, this officer will really implement military law and beat the military stick! ”
