Song Dynasty Iron Armored Army

Chapter 288
The magistrate Cheng was not in the yamen, Chai Lin asked, "Where is Mr. Cheng?"

"The county magistrate of Dong'e County provided ten male donkeys and fifty female donkeys. Mr. Cheng built a donkey farm on the grassland by the lake in the south of the city to encourage the people to pay attention to farming and develop agriculture." Mr. Jia said.

"Master Cheng is really diligent and caring for the people, and I plan to ask about the situation in my paper mill." Chailin said.

"Master Cheng really has something to do. I'm not hiding from you. The land of fish and rice in Dongping Prefecture should be a rich place, but now there are still many areas to be improved. The number of large animals is insufficient, and farming is not as good as it was 20 years ago. The matter of the paper mill It's very simple, make money every day, someone is jealous, it's that simple." Master Jia poured tea for Chailin.

"I really didn't see it, Mr. Jia is really a real person." Chai Lin said in admiration.

Master Jia laughed and said, "I'm afraid that Master Chai will hit me on the forehead with a firecracker."

Chai Lin gave a disdainful laugh and said, "Be careful, and hold grudges."

Master Jia waved his hand and said to the yamen servant at the door: "Bring shopkeeper Chen here."

"Yes." The yamen servant finished speaking and went to pick him up.

Mr. Jia said: "Master Chai, don't get angry. This group of Qiuba is neither serious nor serious. Shopkeeper Chen was already injured when I went to pick them up, but he didn't hurt his muscles or bones."

"It's okay, I understand this, can it still be intact after entering the prison?" Chailin said.

After a while, shopkeeper Chen came, wearing a brand-new long gown, stumbling a bit, staggering unsteadily, with a sallow complexion.

When Chen Long saw Chai Lin, he knelt down and said, "Master, I'm sorry, I lost the paper mill."

Chai Lin took two steps, got up and came to help Chen Long: "Get up quickly, if you lose it, you lose it, as long as you are fine. I'm here to pick you up."

When Chai Lin saw that there was blood on his hands, it was from Chen Long's body.

"It's so bad, take off your shirt and let me see." Chailin said.

"A little injury, it's fine." Chen Long said.

"No, take it off and let me see."

Seeing that Chai Lin persisted, Chen Long took off his long gown. The wounds on his body were shocking. Dozens of leather whips, irons, and even though they had been treated with medicine, were still stained with blood, which showed the tragedy at that time.

Chai Lin was furious, pulled out the treasured knife from his waist, and said: "Dong Ping, you are too deceitful. You robbed my workshop and hurt my shopkeeper."

Said that Chai Lin was going to trouble Dong Ping, Master Jia grabbed Chai Lin.

"Master Chai, don't get excited. You took a knife to the gate of the camp and fell into Dong Ping's tricks. It would be useless to shoot you into a hedgehog." Master Jia said.

"That can't be the case."

"Dong Ping is in charge of military affairs and has no right to intervene in local affairs. He seized Dongping Paper Mill in the name of searching for bandits in Liangshan. Your lord has written a document for you. You take the document and go to get the workshop back. If the defenders If you refuse, that is disobedience, and the adults will have an excuse to deal with them." Master Jia took out the document that Cheng Wanli had prepared long ago, and handed it to Chai Lin.

Chai Lin thanked: "Thank you, Master Jia, I'll treat you to dinner at Zuixianlou some other day, I'll be back first."

"Okay, you're welcome." Master Jia said.

But Mr. Jia was a little confused. He knew all the big restaurants in Dongping Mansion, but he hadn't heard of the Zuixianlou.

Chai Lin helped Chen Long slowly out of the mansion, and Chai Meng and Ma Ling came over immediately.

"Brother, what's the situation?" Chai Meng asked.

"Director Chen's injuries are not serious. He has a whip and a branding iron. He called a mule cart and went out the east gate to Li's old store." Chai Lin said.

"Ok."

Chai Meng called the mule cart, and Ma Ling accompanied Chen Long in the mule cart, and the group arrived at Li's old store.

Who owns the old shop of the Li family? It was opened by Li Ying, the flying eagle of the Li family village. .

As soon as he arrived at the door of the store, he unexpectedly met Du Xing, the butler of Mr. Li.

Du Xing came over and asked, "Master Chai, what's going on?"

Chai Lin said: "This is Chen Long, the treasurer of my village. He was arrested by Dong Ping for no reason. He was seriously injured. I came here to find a secluded room in your shop to recuperate."

Du Xing said: "Hurry up and invite me inside, I will invite the doctor."

Chai Lin said: "Thank you, Steward Du, for your kindness. I have the best gold sore medicine on me."

Du Xing slapped his head and said: "I forgot, Lu Langzhong's golden sore medicine made by Chaijiazhuang is a good thing that is hard to buy."

Du Xing arranged a guest room for Chailin to let Chen Long rest.

Chai Lin personally applied the medicine to Chen Long, and Chen Long grinned in pain, but he kept holding back and didn't cry out.

After applying the medicine, Chen Long said: "Vendor Master, Dong Ping is very powerful and cannot be rivaled."

Chailin said: "You don't have to worry about these things. Take care of your wounds. He beat my people, and he has to give me an explanation. If he doesn't give me an explanation, I will give him an explanation. Who hurt you?"

"Dong Ping's Lieutenant Zhang, he hates you for destroying his Thrushcross Pavilion, so he tortured me in different ways." Chen Long said.

"Okay, you can rest easy and recuperate, and we will reopen in a few days."

In the front lobby, the shopkeeper of the hotel said, "Butler Du, Chen Long was injured by Dong Ping. Will we be implicated if we let him heal here?"

"It's good that you can think about the village. However, whether it's Jianghu or shopping malls, they all pay attention to a righteous word. The business cooperation between our Lijiazhuang and Chaijiazhuang accounts for [-]% of the total. We still have to help. .Dong Ping is powerful, but no matter how big his hands are, he can't cover the sky. You just need to arrange for Xiaoer to take care of shopkeeper Chen. You must pay attention to the patients' meals that should be avoided. You don't need to participate in other things, just do your part. said Duchenne.

The shopkeeper's first thought is this reason, just do your job well.

After a while, Chai Lin came out and said, "Steward Du, I'll send someone to take care of Director Chen in a while. I have other things to do, so I won't be here soon."

Du Xing said: "Master Chai, if you need help, just ask, just ask for money."

Chai Lin clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Steward Du, Gao Yi, your sentence is enough, I can handle it myself."

Chai Lin took the people away, and when passing by the large warehouse in Chaijiazhuang under construction, he saw hundreds of strong men in Hujiazhuang who were busy with construction, and they had probably come out.

Chailin didn't bother, instead, he continued to return to the boat at the pier.

Chai Meng asked, "Brother, where are we going now?"

"Master Jia said just now that Dong Ping is still occupying our paper shop, you go out and find out how many of them are there and who is the leader." Chai Lin said.

Meng Zi led the order to go out, Ma Ling and Chai Lin stayed in the cabin, cooked a river fish, patted a cucumber for wine, and chatted with Ruan Xiaoer and the other three.

Ruan Xiaoer said: "It's really admirable that my brother can sit still and drink while a strong enemy is in front."

"Where is this, such a small matter is nothing. You will also be the generals who lead the army in the future. The generals should train their troops first, and train their minds first. You must make the mountain collapse before you, and your color will not change. Come, come, Drink." Chailin said.

Ma Ling asked: "Then what is brother going to do next?"

"Let's drink and wait, see who is guarding the paper workshop, and then make plans?"

When Chai Meng came back, the sun was west in the afternoon, and Chai Meng said, "Brother, Vice General Zhang is leading people to guard the paper mill. There are not many people, about fifty cavalry."

Chai Lin stood up and said, "Go, go and get Fangzi back."

Ruan Xiaoer said, "Brother, I'll take someone with me."

"No, I'm holding Master Cheng's warrant, how dare he, a little lieutenant general, disobey the order?"
