After being exiled, I led my whole family to rebel.

Chapter 255: Lu Shiwen, full of bad intentions
Xu Zhenying saw that the people were talking about endless discussions, so he quickly continued: "Everyone, listen to me first. If you have any questions, ask later! The second thing is to vaccinate against cowpox. Seeing that winter is coming, it is When the plague spreads, it’s best for everyone to get vaccinated against smallpox to prevent the spread of smallpox!”

"What, cowpox vaccine, what is this? Why haven't we heard of anything from Jinzhou Prefecture?"

"You haven't heard yet. The cowpox vaccine has been available in Jinzhou Prefecture for a long time. People have already finished the vaccination there! It is said that if you take the cowpox vaccine, you will not get smallpox in your life, even if you are exposed to smallpox. Patient, you won’t get smallpox either!”

——Dong dong dong!

Strike the gong again.

But the cowpox incident aroused a strong desire for discussion among the people, and even the sound of gongs could not stop the whispers.

——Dong dong dong!

There were several more gongs and drums in succession.

"Okay, someone will push this matter forward. Those who are willing to take the cowpox vaccine can go to the company commander and others to register in the afternoon. Our doctors from Jinzhou Prefecture will arrive soon, and they will be vaccinated one by one according to the registration order! "

Lian stood up at the right time and waved to the common people as a way of acknowledging their faces.

Mr. Lin was so excited that he couldn't describe it, not only because Jinzhou Prefecture had a miracle drug that could resist smallpox, but also because Xu Zhenying's relaxing method, a universal education plus a cowpox vaccine, was really related to the people. With this two-pronged approach to benefit themselves and future generations, the people of Xingyuan Mansion may have forgotten about Magistrate Yan who is still in prison!
How long has it been, not even half a day? Xu Zhenying used two moves to completely win over the people of Xingyuan Mansion!

Looking at the eager and expectant faces of the people below, Mr. Lin seemed to be infected with this enthusiasm, and his heart was racing.

He turned around and asked the people around him: "What kind of vaccine, have you all been vaccinated? Is it really effective?"

Lian smiled and said: "The city lord said it is effective, so it must be effective. Anyway, we have all been vaccinated."

Mo Jinchun said: "The city lord is the first person to be vaccinated in Jinzhou Prefecture. She is not afraid. What are we afraid of?"

Gu Guihua said: "It's hard to say whether it will be useful or not. Anyway, just give it a shot first. Maybe it will be effective."

Sun Qingchen wanted to take revenge on Mr. Lin for saying that he tied him to the territory of the rebels and made him bear the charge of kidnapping a court official, so he smiled and said: "Anyway, I will take advantage of this opportunity to get vaccinated. Why, Mr. Lin doesn’t dare?”

Mr. Lin snorted, "What am I afraid of? I still want to see this thing. Okay, when the doctor from Jinzhou Prefecture comes, I will be the first one to go up, old man!"

And Xu Zhenying continued: "You should have heard of the Lan County Pig. This pig is now more famous than me -"

The people below burst into laughter again.

"We also need to start pig breeding in Lan County as soon as possible. How to do it? After the meeting, you can ask Minister Fang. I won't say more here! In short, everyone will treat it as if they have changed the prefect, and everything will remain as usual. Wait until today in the city Things inside have been sorted out, and the city gates will be opened in the next two days. Don't panic when you see the soldiers. Do whatever you need to do. Eat when you need to, and drink when you need to. If anything happens, our people will Came to see you."

Someone immediately shouted: "City Lord, can the pigs in Lan County really grow to two hundred pounds in half a year? Isn't that a magic method?"

It seemed that everyone was paying close attention to the problem of pigs in Lan County, and now everyone looked over.

"It's not magic, it's science! We have developed a new method of raising pigs and found that through castration and intensive breeding, the yield of pigs can be increased, and the taste is not unpleasant at all. If you want to raise pigs, Just go and register with Minister Fang as soon as possible, and I guarantee that every household will be able to eat pork within half a year!”

Now the square completely exploded!
Sure enough, what the women from Jinzhou Prefecture who were arrested earlier were telling the truth!

Xu Zhenying quickly took advantage of this gap to escape. The people stood in the square chattering and refused to leave, all looking at Fang Xun and Lianshi.

There was still a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

It seems that as soon as Xu Zhenying leaves, they will pounce on them like a vicious dog pounces on its food.

Fang Xun felt a little numb. Looking at the posture of the people, he quickly called for help: "Hurry up, hurry up, set up the stage, divide into more groups, so as not to have all the people come over and cause a stampede!"

Feng'er also said: "Some more people will be required to maintain order! Be careful not to crowd the elderly and children!"

Qi Er looked at the group of people who were obviously about to rush over. He felt a little dizzy and subconsciously shrank back: "It's over, it's over. Don't even think about going home today -"

Mr. Lin and Sun Qingchen looked at each other.

They seemed to understand at this moment why Xu Zhenying insisted on holding this conference.

Look, just three things have won the hearts and minds of the people of Xingyuan Prefecture!
With this practical benefit, the common people are afraid that they want to be members of this new dynasty. How can they remember the great Zhou Dynasty!

Being able to attack the city overnight, appease the people in the city, and even unite the people's hearts. Such a method is really embarrassing!
Xu Zhenying was about to leave surrounded by a group of people, but unexpectedly a familiar face with a thin figure and simple clothes emerged from the crowd.

Old man Lin greeted her from afar, his tone was flattering and respectful: "City Lord! Little Master Xu!"

Hearing the words "Little Master Xu", Xu Zhenying realized that there seemed to be a group of old acquaintances in Xingyuan Mansion!

Xu Zhenying turned around and saw Old Man Lin.

Then I saw him dressed in coarse linen clothes.

She couldn't help but curl her lips, good guy, this is because she is afraid that she will rob the rich households after attacking the city.

She remembered that old man Lin used to dress in fancy clothes, and he was so rich and noble. From a distance, he looked very noble.

Old man Lin and his family squeezed through the crowd with difficulty and came to Xu Zhenying.

The elders and younger ones of the family knelt down to her when they saw her. Fortunately, she had quick hands and eyes to support Old Man Lin: "Boss Lin, you are fine. Please get up quickly. You have helped me earn so much money. Let's It sounds like we are old acquaintances, so we don’t need to be polite.”

Old man Lin looked at Xu Zhenying with an expression that could not hide his excitement, "I never expected that the city lord of Jinzhou Mansion would be you! This... this... the flood really washed away the Dragon King Temple! Why don't you attack the city if you want to? Tell me, old man, I still have some money and some influence in Xingyuan Mansion, how can I help the city lord!"

When Old Man Lin saw Xu Zhenying's face in the square, he immediately regretted it!
In addition, seeing Qi Er standing behind Xu Zhenying, he knew that Qi Er clearly knew about this siege. Not only that, Qi Er was probably the mediator and helped Xu Zhenying do a lot of things before he could jump over the dragon gate and get into Xu Zhenying's eyes.

Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was missed by him!

Of course Xu Zhenying didn't take these words seriously. As a businessman, how many words in his mouth can be true?
But she also said it politely, "I didn't know if it would work out at that time, so I wouldn't dare to drag others down easily. What's more, you are my partner in selling soap, so you must not make any mistakes in this line!"

Old Man Lin's son immediately took advantage of the opportunity and said: "City Lord, speaking of soap, this year's accounts haven't been calculated yet! Although it's only October, we have calculated the accounts once a month, so it's very clear. You have just entered Xingyuan Mansion. , I really can’t come to disturb you, why don’t my father and I personally deliver the account book to your door after the things in the city are over?” Old man Lin nodded quickly, “Yes, yes, if you are short of manpower, City Lord, just let us know. The Lin family will definitely follow your lead!"

Xu Zhenying nodded slightly, accepting the favor.

On the other hand, the other wealthy families in the corner of the square who had never been able to talk to each other were secretly annoyed and stared at Old Man Lin with their eyes almost falling to the ground.

"This damn old man Lin really follows the wind! I really regret it. If I had known that Mr. Xu was a bad boy, I should have spent all my money to buy his prescription! At least this bridge has been built!"

"No, otherwise that old man Lin would be very discerning!"

"You know it's hard to buy a fortune! Who would have thought that a boy of 14 or 15 years old would become the biggest rebel in the southwest! If you ask me, Qi'er, the head of the family, has the best life, a second-married daughter, pampered by his parents. Not only did she take care of the family's business, but she also boarded Xu Zhenying's boat early. Look how proud she was just now! From now on, her Qi family will be the only one in Xingyuan Mansion!"

"Time is also fate. We are not bad at all. At least we have dealt with the city lord. Not to mention, the city lord is really good at business and kind. If you cooperate with her, you will never suffer a loss! Let's go, let's go Look at where you are raising pigs. The price of pigs in Lan County is getting higher and higher day by day. It has almost caught up with the fresh mutton from the north. I think there is something going on here. If you go later, the quota will be taken up. !”

At this moment, Lu Fei and three thousand people had arrived at Sanping County.

This place is only a few hundred kilometers away from Tongzhou and Gongzhou of the King of Zhoushan next door, and there has always been an influx of refugees intermittently. It is the last barrier of Jinzhou Prefecture.

If the King of Zhoushan takes the opportunity to cause trouble, he will definitely enter from Sanping County.

This is the first time Lu Fei has taken the lead alone, and Xu Zhenying has given him such an important position, which makes him somewhat nervous.

More of a passion!

It is said that the sharp edge of a sword comes from sharpening. They have been tempered in the army for so long. They have the best food, the highest salary and the best treatment every day. They are either practicing or studying all day long. At most, they can help the officials to fight. Brothers, it’s early. I just want to have a fight with the people of the Zhou Dynasty!
Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the mountains, so why return them wrapped in horse leather?
The people of the King of Zhoushan had better come now. As long as they dare to come, he, Lu Fei, will beat them to pieces!

As soon as they arrived in Sanping County, they were warmly welcomed by the people in the city. The people even walked out of their homes and stood on both sides of the official road with banners to greet them——

The magistrate of Sanping County is a young man named Lu Shiwen. It is said that he was newly appointed after the last selection of officials. He looks kind and kind. Because he was originally a farmer, his figure is taller than that of ordinary officials. .

As soon as Lu Fei arrived, he went to patrol the city wall, only to find that the city wall had already been heightened and reinforced, and it was still made of cement!
Lu Fei was shocked, "Magistrate Lu, this...is this cement?"

Lu Shiwen smiled slightly, hiding his merits and fame, "Yes. I always pay attention to the movements of Jinzhou Mansion. As soon as the cement came out, I immediately brought some cement to the city chief on the grounds that the border area needed to focus on the city wall. "

Lu Fei nodded and couldn't help but admire him: "Magistrate Lu is really quick-sighted. The cement factory has not been built yet. Now almost only the main road can be approved to get cement. Fortifications and defenses are something that the entire Jin and Guizhou states are afraid of." You are the only one who can get there first!"

Lu Shiwen scratched his head in embarrassment, "This is all supported by the city lord!"

"That's for sure, but it's your ability to think of this in advance!" Lu Fei laughed and patted Lu Shiwen on the shoulder, "Magistrate Lu, I see that you have a flexible mind and know how to adapt to things, so we can work together. With sincere cooperation, we must protect this border!”

Lu Shiwen looked sincere: "That's natural! I am in the city, and I will die in the city!"

The two of them walked and watched. Lu Fei looked down from a high place and saw that the people in the city seemed not to be affected by the war at all and were still doing what they were supposed to do.

The scenery here is truly unique.

The common people of the Great Zhou Dynasty walked with their heads down and looked at the uppers of their shoes. Their bodies were stooped, and they all showed fatigue. There was a faint sense of oppression of struggling to survive.

As for the people in Sanping County, their backs were straight and they spoke loudly. Their faces were either happy, angry, or scolding, and they looked extremely lively!

Especially the female family members. Once in the streets of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the female family members were almost invisible. Even bold women, or women who are forced to make a living, are cautious when walking on the road, like mice crossing the street.

However, the women in Sanping County shouted loudly at their goods, grabbed men by the ears and scolded them, and discussed studies side by side with the men. Most of the women's voices were high-pitched and high-pitched on the street.

Perhaps, this is the breath of "freedom and fairness" that the city lord mentioned?

Lu Fei then said to Lu Shiwen: "Magistrate Lu, your Sanping County has been governed very well. Look at these people, they are not panicked at all even when war breaks out. This shows your achievements in daily governance."

Lu Shiwen disagreed: "No, all this is the credit of the city lord. The people believe in the city lord. Even if war comes, they are not willing to retreat to other villages and towns. General Lu, such days were created by the city lord. If it weren't for the city lord, , without you and me, let alone these people.”

"You are right, so we must do a good job in defense this time, and we must not let down the trust the city lord has placed in us." Lu Fei nodded, "Tell us about the situation in the city."

"There are currently a total of 11,000 people in the city. There are about 2,000 to 3,000 old, weak, sick and disabled, and there are still 7,000 people left, all young and middle-aged people——"

"Wait!" Lu Fei was a little surprised, "You have so many young and middle-aged people here?"

Lu Shiwen smiled: "Of course there was no such thing in the past, but there have always been intern doctors sitting in the hall, and the price of medicinal herbs is also very low. The people can afford to see a doctor, and can afford to eat, and every one of them is strong and healthy, even a twelve-year-old baby I can even play with a gun twice, not to mention that as soon as I took office, I followed the city lord's method and first promoted universal education, and then hired bodyguards as instructors in Sanping County. The first batch trained men, and the second batch. The first group is women, and the third group is children over ten years old. Nowadays, except for those who are too old to walk, everyone in Sanping County is a soldier and everyone can fight. The total of these zeros and zeros is estimated to be There can also be 7,000 people!”

Lu Fei and the soldiers behind him were all frightened, "All the people are soldiers?!"

Lu Shiwen coughed and said, "I was thinking that since we are on the border, we will have a battle with the King of Zhoushan sooner or later. In addition, before leaving, the city lord also specifically told the magistrates of several of our border counties that patrol work is a top priority. Seriously, we must do our best to protect the local people, so I thought that hiring a bodyguard as an instructor would only cost a small amount of money, but it could help the people in the city stay fit. The ability to protect yourself and your family. By the way, this doesn’t include the villagers in the towns!”

Lu Fei's eyelids twitched, "Don't say... you also have this kind of reserve force in the towns below?"

"Reserves? Oh, yes, if there is conscription in the future, the people of Sanping County will have an advantage over others!" Lu Shiwen's eyes lit up, and then he became a little embarrassed, "Oh, it's not like everyone in the village is a soldier, I just let the first The village chief organizes the people to practice regularly and strengthen patrols, so that no one, no matter the age or sex, is left behind, so that they will not be robbed without the ability to fight back! "

Lu Fei laughed dryly, feeling mixed emotions for a moment.

Unless he was still full of confidence before, claiming that after practicing in the military camp for so long, he would definitely be able to fight well this time.

The Zhou Dynasty has been at odds with its civil and military officials since ancient times. He thought that the civil servants of Jinzhou Prefecture would never be like this. At least they could cooperate with each other and never hold each other back.

But Lu Fei, despite all his calculations, never expected that the person who would cooperate with him to defend the city would be a young man who looked gentle but was actually full of evil!
The world is deteriorating, and people’s hearts are not as old as they used to be—

Why is it that the city lord has people like this who are smarter than foxes?
On the other hand, the soldier behind him smiled awkwardly, "This...is there still any place for us to use ourselves in Sanping County?"

Lu Shiwen stopped joking and said, "To be honest, in the past month, refugees have been coming to Sanping County one after another. According to the city lord's request, we have not driven them away. We welcome everyone who comes. But there are also spies who sneak into the city to gather intelligence. In addition, there are reports from towns and villages that they saw people in military uniforms in the mountains. They are not from our Jinzhou Prefecture, but from the side of King Zhoushan. From this, it seems that King Zhoushan is indeed ready to make a move. I am afraid that even if the city lord did not attack Xingyuan Prefecture this time, they would still act accordingly."

Lu Fei sneered, "Our Jinzhou Prefecture is just a piece of fat meat, and all the cats and dogs want to take a bite of it."

"It's true. Our place divides the fields and grains, and also allows the children to study for free. These days are good, and it is inevitable that people will salivate, especially since the doctor here came to vaccinate against cowpox last time. The county and villages didn't know where they heard the news, so they traveled all the way to get vaccinated. After entering the city, they kept asking about pig raising and farm allocation. Later, some villages proposed to be merged into our Jinzhou Prefecture. , I beg the city lord for his blessing, but the city lord didn’t express his position, so I can’t answer. Judging from this, the people on the side of Zhoushan King are still living a hard life, and some even hope that we can fight over it quickly. The strength of this group of people. , we can find a way to use it.”
