Chapter 1043 The Cook
The city of Handan originated in the Shang Dynasty.

The domain of Handan belonged to Wei State in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and it was the land of Jin Dynasty in the Spring and Autumn Period. At that time, Handan was already a well-known city with relatively developed agriculture, handicraft industry and commerce.In the 12th year of Duke Ding of the Jin Dynasty, Zhao Yang, Zhengqing of the Jin State, brought Handan into his sphere of influence. Since then, Handan has become the hereditary territory of the Zhao family.

In 150 BC, Zhao Jinghou moved his capital to Handan, and he was the capital of Zhao State for [-] years.

Later Qin destroyed Zhao and established Handan County.The Western Han Dynasty set up the State of Zhao.Handan was still one of the five major capital cities in the country until the end of the Western Han Dynasty. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the powerful and powerful came together, and the separatists fought in chaos. Handan suffered from military disasters and began to decline.

Xun Chen went out. At this time, he was living in a big dilapidated house surrounded by similar houses.These houses can't be considered simple, but they are obviously in disrepair for a long time. The structure is still there, with broken walls and broken tiles everywhere, like the remains of a city that has been dead for a long time.Most of the common people on the street are pale and emaciated, looking haggard.

Among these houses, as far as the eye can see, there are messy small flags and laundry, garbage everywhere, and black water flowing vertically.A tall and majestic city wall can be seen in the distance. Xun Chen knew that it was the Handan New City under construction. The dignitaries and dignitaries would move there in the future, and the remaining houses would be open to the nearby people to live at will.

Thinking of this, Xun Chen shook his head. It is conceivable that if such actions are taken, the common people will surely rush forward and compete for each other's houses, making the outer city of Handan a chaotic place-this is a typical Yuan Shao-style governance, with extravagant spending , bold and generous, but lack of overall planning.

"It's all on a whim, without any planning. It looks generous, but it's actually chaotic politics." Xun Chen commented with disgust, while deftly avoiding a pile of broken tiles: If Tian Feng Jushou is still there, even if Yuan's repeated Even if it is defeated, it will not be so messy.It's a pity that Tian Feng returned to the horse, Ju Shou could not hide, and Xin Ping, who was left to preside over government affairs, was only at this level.

At this time, Xun Chen has slowly come to the main road of the old city, which connects the new city with other places, so it has been repaired fairly neatly.The pavement is paved with stone strips, with convex sides and concave sides, which is convenient for drainage.It's a pity that the ditches on both sides have long been filled with silt and can't play any role.The trees planted along the way are still there, but the leaves are sparse, and there are traces of being hacked every few sections, and the bottom of the tree is full of defecation.

"My lord, come and drink some offal soup to warm yourself up." A boss poked his head out of the door and yelled.Xun Chen waved his hand to signal no. He saw that the boss had a round body—in this troubled world, there are not many people with such an optimistic figure as the boss.

There was a lot of noise in the small shop, obviously the boss's business was doing well.However, Xun Chen just wanted to drink some boring wine today, and he was not interested in those noisy environments.

Soon he came to the restaurant he often visited, ordered a jug of turbid wine and sipped slowly.He doesn't like the fragrant and strong distilled wine of Ma's house very much - drinking requires mood, just like at this moment, he only needs a jug of slightly drunk stale wine to let himself slowly intoxicated.

Xun Chen didn't drink much at first, and he was a little dizzy after a few glasses of wine.It was getting late at this time, and Xun Chen wanted to close the window, but when he got up, he accidentally dropped the saber bag hanging from his waist under the desk.He secretly scolded himself for being careless, and bent down to touch it, but when he lowered his head, he saw that there were several scratches on his desk.

Xun Chen's face turned cold, and he looked around, seeing that everything was as usual.He pretended to be struggling to pick up the pendant, and rubbed the back of the table.

He felt something with his fingers, the bottom of the wooden desk seemed to be a little uneven.At first Xun Chen thought it was just rough production, but later found that these bumps seemed to be regular.He raised his body, and slowly put his palm up to the bottom, rubbed slowly, and gradually figured out the true meaning of those bumps.

Those bumps are scratches, made up of two right-sloping slashes and two double-connected circles.Even if someone turns the whole case over, they will only think that someone caused it accidentally, but they recognize the two connecting slashes that only the Ma family spies can identify, and the two circles don't know what it is mean.But one thing is certain, these should have been engraved not long ago.

It just so happened that the fainting drum on the tower rang three times, and the curfew would be in half an hour. The sound of the drum was to remind all the residents to return to their homes as soon as possible.Xun Chen settled the bill and started walking on the way back.

"My lord, come drink some offal soup to warm your body." The boss poked his head out of the door and yelled again. Although it was like this every day, Xun Chen couldn't help being a little annoyed because he had something on his mind today. Wanting to scold the boss, he suddenly saw a dirty cover flying on the pole in front of the restaurant—in the last sliver of the setting sun, he could see the word "cooking" on the cover, And these two words are nested into two yellow circles connected end to end.

Xun Chen felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He calmed down a bit, and walked into this small shop under the warm greeting of the boss.As soon as he entered, he saw a young woman with bright eyes and kind eyes gnawing a ball of meatballs regardless of her image. Seeing Xun Chen entering, the woman just raised her head slightly, making Xun Chen frown slightly.

At this time, there were no customers in the restaurant, only this woman was eating and drinking.Xun Chen hesitated for a moment, pretended to be a poor scholar, and chanted loudly: "Wen Neng uses a pen to control loli, and Wu Neng finds a wife on the bed..."

The woman who was eating meat at the side laughed at that time, and said a little smugly: "Every time I hear this contact code, I can't help but want to laugh. I don't know, what do you think the lord is thinking? Can't the contact signal be changed to be more elegant?"

The fat boss also seemed to be blushing a little, and replied with a blue face: "You can bully your body and overwhelm Zhengtai, look back and raise your hips to welcome all bases!" Then he stretched out his hand and pointed at the woman, and introduced with a dark face: "This is Bitch." In the end, his complexion finally returned to normal, and he cupped his hands and said, "Welcome everyone Xun."

"What's the matter with Ma Mengqi?" Xun Chen's face was a little unhappy. He knew that since the last time the shadow made Li Fujian kill the women in Yecheng and made Cheng Yu enter the city in a big way, Gao Lan learned from the painful experience and sent Most of the Red Eagle Cavalry's power was concentrated in Handan City.He is almost a half-retired staff member, but because of his family status, there are at least three red eagle riders around him watching him.

That's why it was so troublesome for Shadow to contact Xun Chen this time.

Unknown, Duanmu didn't say much, he got up and started to make hangover soup, after thinking for a while, he whispered while doing it: "My lord means that Yuan's time has come, sir must have some choices."

Xun Chen's expression was flustered when he heard the words, and he quickly recovered his mind: "This is impossible. Yuan Gong still has 40 troops. Although Simpi is not as good at planning and planning as Jushou, he can also be responsible for supervising money and food. Cao's However, with 10,000+ soldiers and horses, it is difficult to defeat Duke Cao."

"I don't know about these things. My lord just said that now is the opportunity for the Xun family to make a decision. If there is any hesitation, it will be regarded as giving up and submitting to the Ma family." At this time, Duanmu had already brought a bowl of hangover soup to Xun Chen. In front of him, Xun Chen took a sip. It was sweet and sour, and it was really a good hangover soup.

"My lord, although he does things unexpectedly, he always hits the mark." The girl turned her head and looked out of the window, and whispered again: "Master Xun, it's not much time before returning home. The vendor outside the window pretending to be a tea seller , I have glanced here four times.”

Xun Chen shook his hand holding the hangover soup, and he used the cover of drinking the soup to say: "This is a big matter, I need to go back and think about it."

"No need, Master Xun doesn't make a decision at this time, so there's no need to go back and think about it." Duanmu's unclear face showed the boss's humility, but the content of his words made Xun Chen feel a little uncomfortable: "Tomorrow this store will not exist anymore. , it seems that we, husband and wife, need to work as cooks in someone else's house."

"That's all!" Xun Chen put down the hangover soup and took out five copper coins: "The two of you should come to my house, as it happens, there are still two cooks in my house..."
