only said that Gu Zikai did not escape last night, and was poured several glasses of wine.

Although in the capital, he is a romantic and talented person, but Gu Zikai's alcohol consumption is only average.

In addition, the wine in the north is stronger than that in the capital and the south.

As soon as Gu Zikai's three cups passed, he was already a little high.

Fortunately, the wolf who was waiting next to him was careful, and when he found out that something was wrong, he hurriedly told the people around Song Chongjin.

The people around Song Chongjin naturally knew that Gu Zikai was their wife's cousin, and they took extra care of him, but seeing that Gu Zikai was not strong enough to drink, they quietly took care of Gu Zikai and didn't let him get a drop of wine.

The master that Gu Changqing valued very much was a little old and tired all the way, so he resigned from tonight's reception banquet and rested directly behind the county office.

The rest of the entourage, except for Wolf Hao and the two guards, were also arranged with the master to be in front.

However, with Mrs. Zhang and Wang Yongzhu here, Gu Zikai was naturally properly arranged.

When he went back, there was hot water and hangover tea, and after washing, he poured it on the kang and didn't know anything.

By the time he woke up, it was already dawn the next day.

Hearing Wolf Hao say that Song Chongjin and the others got up early, and they all used breakfast, and seeing that he slept soundly, they all told him not to wake up.

Gu Zikai showed a look of shame and fell to his feet.

After busy grooming, I used breakfast indiscriminately, and went to say goodbye to Mrs. Zhang.

When Mrs. Zhang heard that Gu Zikai had come to ask for peace, she hurriedly asked people to come in.

Gu Zikai apologized first, saying that he should have asked for peace last night, but he was drunk, but he was tired and worried.

Where would Mrs. Zhang be as careless as her nephew, waved her hand with a smile and said it was okay, and asked him if he was resting? Are you used to eating breakfast?

After a good meal, he asked for warmth.

Gu Zikai replied respectfully one by one.

asked again about the situation in the capital, is the old lady of the Gu family in good health? How is the Gu family?

Gu Zikai naturally picked up the happy good thing and said, what kind of old lady of the Gu family is in good health, and the eldest lady and Gu Changqing are also well.

The whole family in the second room also returned to the second room, and Gu Chang took office.

The third aunt and the third uncle of the third room are also filial, and they all have to come over to greet the old lady of the Gu family and talk to her.

After saying this, Mrs. Zhang knew that they still had something to talk about, so she made an excuse and let them all come out.

In the study, Song Chongjin, Wang Yongzhu and his wife, plus Gu Zikai and Li Jiushao, the four of them gathered for the first time after parting from the capital four or five years ago.

You must know that even in the capital, Gu Zikai and Li Jiushao have their own things to do, and their circles of making friends are also different, so it is rare for them to sit together to eat, drink and chat.

But even so, in the end, the friendship between the two started from wearing open crotch pants, and as soon as they met, they couldn't help but mock each other for two more sentences before they stopped.

Sit down and talk about business, because the time is pressing, these two days will be repaired for the officials in the capital, and after two days, everything will slowly get on the right track, and Song Chongjin really can't spare time.

Therefore, I can only take advantage of these two days to quickly introduce the situation of Yunzhong County to Gu Zikai.

Gu Zikai knew that this was the most important thing, so he was busy straightening his face, listening carefully, and asking what he didn't understand, so he almost took a pen and paper and wrote it down.

Song Chongjin hurriedly said: "Most of the situation in Yunzhong County is recorded, I will give it to you later, and you can take it back and think about it with the master." What I'm talking about now won't be recorded, it's good for you to be careful and keep it in your heart. ”

Gu Zikai knew that this was really important and nodded: "Please speak-"

Song Chongjin then explained the places that need to be paid attention to in Yunzhong County, some problems left by the previous county magistrate, as well as the habits of the people in Yunzhong County, local customs, the most important sources of income for the people, and the sources of taxes.

Gu Zikai didn't even dare to blink his eyes, for fear that he would miss a word.

After Song Chongjin finished speaking, he silently repeated it in his heart before he was relieved.

In the end, Song Chongjin said: "Yunzhong County is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and a river surrounds the city, this river, you have to pay more attention——"

Gu Zikai was stunned: "What's so special about this river?" Or is it that there will be flooding in the summer? "You must know that what officials are most afraid of is this kind of flood or drought, once it happens, the losses will be extremely heavy.

If such a thing happens to these officials under their direct jurisdiction, they will be dismissed from their posts at least and the whole family will be folded into it.

If Gu Zikai said that he was not worried about his future, it would be false, but he would not want such a disaster to happen.

Song Chongjin shook his head and lowered his voice: "You keep this matter in mind and always pay attention!" The river is called Yunzhong River, and the river water melts from the glacier on the top of the mountain into water, and winds down to Yunzhong County. The name of the county seat is derived from the name of the river. ”

"The river has flowed for many years, flowing in the summer and freezing in the winter. Some time ago, my men went to Yunzhong County to run errands, passed through the Yunzhong River, and when they were herding horses and drinking water, they picked up a piece of dog's head gold——"

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Gu Zikai, Li Jiushao also exclaimed.

"Doghead gold?"

The two looked at each other, and even the most ignorant people knew what it meant.

Gu Zikai immediately understood why Song Chongjin was in such a hurry to write a letter and strongly recommended him to Yunzhong County to take office.

Not to mention Gu Zikai, the nine young people on the side also understood.

couldn't help but glance at Gu Zikai with envy, if he wanted to say that he knew Song Chongjin and Wang Yongzhu, he knew him first, but he couldn't stand that Gu Zikai and Wang Yongzhu were cousins.

Otherwise, such a good thing can fall on Gu Zikai's head in vain?

Gu Zikai's heart was agitated, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Song Chongjin is still explaining: "Only me and my subordinates know about this matter at present, and I have already sent someone to investigate along the Yunzhong River." But you will arrive soon, and when you arrive in Yunzhong County and take over everything, this investigation will be handed over to you! ”

Gu Zikai said a thousand words, his eyes were red, and he arched his hand: "Please rest assured!" I will not fail you in this deep friendship! ”

In this world, except for his parents, Gu Zikai has never enjoyed such favor and preference.

How can he not be moved?

It's just a manly husband, and he can't say a lot of words, but he secretly swears in his heart that he will never forget the affection between his cousin and his cousin-in-law in his life, and if he is needed in the future, he will definitely go to the soup and go to the fire.

Li Jiushao on the side understood Gu Zikai's mood at the moment, patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, and said half-truthfully: "Come on!" Come on! I know you're impressed! Big man, the circles under your eyes are red, don't really cry! If you really cry, I can tell you, in the future, when you are old, I will tell your son and grandson, your grandfather is old, and he still cries-"

These words made Gu Zikai laugh.

Song Chongjin and Wang Yongzhu glanced at each other, and looked at Li Jiushao two points higher, in the end, it was a friendship for many years, even if he was envious in his heart, but his first reaction was to make up for his gaffe for his friend, for fear that Song Chongjin and Wang Yongzhu would misunderstand.
