  Chapter 23 23. Persuade

   Jiang Xia was wearing a Confucian scholar’s gown, holding a paper fan pretendingly in her hand.

  These are Huang Guanshi’s “gifts”, and he will try hard to pretend to be a scholar.

   Jiang Shusheng’s memory is still there, Jiang Xia can be regarded as the true character, wearing this long gown, following the steady walk in the memory, there is also a bookish character.

  Unfortunately, because of the long hair in the wasteland, he shaved his head, which made his current hairstyle a little nondescript.

  The scribes in this world all have long hair. Only Buddhist disciples or some monks will have short hair. In desperation, they put a felt hat on their heads to cover up.

   “Thank you, Lao Zhang, for passing on, and Xiaosheng is grateful.”

  At the door of the mine supervisor’s house, Jiang Xia held a fan in his hand and made a decent gesture to the old servant of the mine supervisor. When he stepped forward, he turned his wrist, and another small piece of silver fell on the palm of the old servant’s hand.

  The latter took a peek, and there was a pleasant surprise on his weathered face, and he was a little disturbed.

  His master is also regarded as a member of the officialdom. He has also heard of some officialdom “customs”, but this is the first time that he has been given a red envelope.

  I don’t know why the scholar in front of me is so generous.

  This made the old servant feel the same worry as the master.

  There was still a carriage parked on the street behind Jiang Xia. The fourth child and Su, who had changed their ordinary clothes, were carrying large boxes one by one out of the carriage.

  He waved his hand and smiled at the old servant again. Seven or eight boxes were sent to the mine supervision yard and piled at the door.

  He straightened his clothes and walked into the hospital with the old servant. As soon as he entered, Jiang Xia looked around, and thoughts arose in his heart.

  This mine superintendent has really had a hard time.

  You can’t see the outside of the yard, but when you come in, you can’t hide the sour gas.

  There are only three houses. The main hall in front of me is probably my own. There is a kitchen like a thatched house on the left, and a few large tanks with lids are stacked at the door.

  Perhaps there are pickled vegetables in it, and a smell comes in the wind.

  The house on the right is also lower. It should be the only old servant who lives. There are some washing clothes hanging on the edge of the yard, and some of them are patched.

  The yard was not well leveled either. There were weeds on the edges, but in front of the main hall, some bamboo was planted in a graceful way.

  ”Does this mean that I would rather eat without meat than live without bamboo? Or is it showing my sentiment?”

   Jiang Xia’s eyes rolled.

  It seems that Liu Laosi’s intelligence is quite true. This somewhat pedantic mine inspector is really like a scholar. The mine inspector has been in Fengshan Mine for a few years.

  Although Ruyifang doesn’t like such a small official, as long as he speaks and leaks a little from the hands of several stewards, it will not be so miserable.

  Guo really pretends to be high-minded, unwilling to confuse with others.

   Jiang Xia thought a little more in his heart, thinking about how to deal with this iron-headed baby representing Fengming State’s court, and after a few steps, in the main hall, the mine supervisor appeared to greet him.

   is a thin middle-aged man, with a horoscope, wearing a half-old, not old cyan gown, with a serious face, a little unsmiling.

  He stood on the steps, looked at Jiang Xia who was coming, looked at him, and finally landed on his hat. Although it was covered, the messy stubble still couldn’t conceal it.

  This makes the mine supervisor unhappy.

  Where is a scholar?

  Body and skin, the recipient’s parents didn’t understand the truth, obviously they were impersonating, and he felt a little impatient in his heart, thinking about sending this person away as soon as possible.

   “Who is coming?”

  The mine supervisor, with his right hand on his back and his left hand twisting his beard, asked.

  Jiang Xia took the memory of Jiang Shusheng in his heart as the standard, and made a standard courtesy. Then he said:

  ”Under the rule of Xiafengyang County, the Tongsheng Jiangxia in Erqiao Village of Huai’an Prefecture, with the word Ziheng, came to see the adults today, and I have important matters to tell.”

“Um?”

   Listening to Jiang Xia’s self-reported portal, the mine supervisor was a little surprised. This person is still a child?

  Fengming is a small country, but these old emperors have worked hard to govern and paid great attention to imperial examinations.

Although   Tongsheng is no better than Juren, and scholars are so rare, but in the end it is also a journey of literature and ink, and has passed the county government’s two trials.

  Although they are still far away from official officials, the folks dare to pretend to be this, and still have to be convicted. Seeing Jiang Xia take out the identity document from his sleeve and hand it with both hands, the mine supervisor came forward to check it.

  Well, it’s exactly what he said, it seems to be true.

  In this way, the discomfort in the mine supervisor’s heart dissipated a little.

  The person in front of him is indeed a scholar, just like him.

  There are hundreds of people in Fengshan Mine. The real scholar is the mine supervisor. He often feels lonely, but now he sees another one.

Although    is just a child, it also made the mine supervisor feel a bit of joy that has not been for a long time.

  Speaking again, the tone is much softer.

   “You said something important?”

  He returned the document to Jiang Xia and asked:

  ”What’s the important thing for this little Fengshan mine?”

   Jiang Xia looked around, took a step forward, opened the paper fan, covered her mouth and nose, and whispered to the mine supervisor:

   “Does your lord know that the collapse last night?”

“Um.”

  The mine supervisor nodded, and Jiang Xia said again:

  ”My lord, you know, who is buried underneath?”

   “Don’t fight dumb puzzles!”

  The mine supervisor is a little unhappy.

   Jiang Xia laughed and said:

  ”It’s the dog-legs of Ruyifang, seven stewards, plus fifty or sixty thugs and servants. Xiaosheng came today to confess good to the adults.

  From today onwards, the mine superintendent, my lord, deserves his name. The culprits have been removed, and the Fengshan mine belongs to the imperial court. “

  ”!!!”

  The mine monitor was dumbfounded, and he couldn’t react to it for a while.

   heard Jiang Xia’s voice again and continued:

   “It all relies on the divine and clever calculations of the adults, the secret planning of the young people to do things, and the curtain of the heavens, so that the big thing can be achieved, and the Fengshan mine for the country has been obtained, which greatly suppressed the arrogance of the Ruyifang thieves.

  Adult is worthy of being a good officer who is upright, upright, and strong for the people.

  Xiaosheng was so impressed that he had asked a few people to publicize the matter of the adult’s clever plan to get rid of the thieves in Fengshan Street, so that the miserable people would know the kindness of the adult. “

“shut up!”

  The more the mine supervisor listened, the more disturbed he became, and his face paled and scolded:

   “When did the official let you? The official didn’t know you! Don’t talk nonsense!”

   “Huh? My lord, what is this?”

  Jiang Xia looked surprised, he said seriously:

  ”Isn’t it because the adult and the niche spy some time ago, decided to eliminate the thieves?

  In the past few years, adults have come to Fengshan Street and have never been in contact with the people of Ruyifang. They are clean and self-conscious, and everyone knows that they are regarded as thieves.

  The adults are dedicated to serving the country again. They can’t bear to see the country’s property and are occupied by the wicked.

   Isn’t this something that should be right? “

  Seeing that the mine inspector’s face became more and more alarmed, he smiled inwardly, and pointed to the boxes placed in the mine inspector sternly, and said slowly:

   “That was the stolen stolen property that was handed in, and now they are all sent to the court of the adults.

  On the way, the people on Fengshan Street can see clearly. Adults may wish to report truthfully. It is a great achievement to have the evidence of the niche and the money and material. “

   “Shut up! Shut up! Get out!”

  The mine supervisor is in a mess.

  He was already angry with Jiang Xia, and he wanted to hold the big stick in his hand and beat the catastrophe out to prove his innocence.

  Which level of wealthy businessmen is Ruyifang?

  Is it because he, a little mine supervisor, dared to make a move?

  I still have wives and children, and there is still a family in my hometown. If today’s matter is spread out and the house is destroyed, it will be in sight.

   “No one will believe you nonsense! You get out of here!”

  The mine supervisor cursed, Jiang Xia didn’t care, he put away the paper fan, and said slowly:

  ”It doesn’t matter if others believe it or not, and it doesn’t matter if adults believe it or not, as long as Liu Fangzhu of Ruyifang and Liu Baoxin, the foolish idiot, do.

  My lord thinks, the two of you heard about this, do you believe it or not? “

“you you!”

  The mine supervisor stretched out his hand and pointed at Jiang Xia. His face was pale, his fingers trembling, and the beards he had well-groomed were shaking. It was obviously anxious, and he was so angry that he couldn’t speak.

  Those two believe it or not?

not important.

Seven stewards on Fengshan Street and fifty or sixty people from Ruyifang died tragically. It was a slap on the face of Ruyifang in the sky. There must be an explanation for this.

  The truth or falsehood of the matter is not important at this point.

  As long as the rumors spread, in order to maintain the reputation of Ruyifang, the mine supervisor’s family will undoubtedly die.

  What’s more, there is such a major incident in Xiaoxiao Fengshan Street. He, the mine supervisor, has the responsibility of supervision, and he can’t escape the relationship.

  ”Will you ask me to go in and sit down? My lord.”

   Jiang Xia said softly.

  The mine supervisor looked like a bereaved concubine, he deliberately found someone to take down the gangster in front of him and sent him to Fengyang County to be tortured to clear his suspicion.

  But no one under his command is available.

  Just an old servant who walks swayingly, where is the opponent of this fierce bandit?

  Dirty water has been spilled on his body, and it is really going to cause trouble, Fengyang County Hong Taishou will not be a petty official for him, and he will fight with Ruyifang. He is dead.

   is dead.

   But since this person dared to come and said so clearly, he must have planned and conspired.

  The mine supervisor clenched his fists, took a deep breath, gave Jiang Xia a fierce look, turned and walked into the house, Jiang Xia also laughed, and walked in.

  The door closes at the next moment.

   “Don’t worry, my lord, I couldn’t help but make this move.”

   Jiang Xia sat on the chair in the room and said calmly:

  ”As long as the adults help me, the adults will not be allowed to die, and the whole family can be preserved, even if things are not good, it will be the worst.

  The goods in the seven or eight boxes are enough for an adult to take his family to a foreign country and be rich for a lifetime. “

  The mine supervisor had a sullen face and did not speak.

  Today is a disaster from heaven.

  He is not in the mood to do anything now.

   “Seven stewards are dead, and dogs are dead, Fengshan Street is unmanaged, and it’s very chaotic. It will be your lord, the mine supervisor, to stabilize the situation.”

   Jiang Xia stood up, poured herself a cup of tea, and poured another cup for the mine supervisor.

He says:

  ”An adult is an official of the court. Maintaining order is what an adult should do. I also have someone available under my command to help the adult stabilize the people’s livelihood.

  Adults don’t need to speak, just come forward. “

   “Can’t hide it.”

  The mine supervisor lowered his head, held his face, and said desperately:

   “Such a big thing, you can’t hide it. If Ruyifang sends someone over, how many people can you stop?”

   “I know I can’t hide it, it’s a day if I can delay it.”

   Jiang Xia said:

   “I also have a solution to the situation. They dare to come and just fight back.

  Anyway, it’s a mortal situation, adults might as well believe me, even if the sky falls, the first one will fall on me.

  Look, sir, unless your hands and eyes are open to the sky, and the background behind you is not afraid of Ruyifang’s revenge, we are now grasshoppers on a rope.

  We must help each other and seek survival from death.

  I don’t know much about Ruyifang, so I wanted to ask an adult about their details. Adults are official, and they know more secrets than ordinary people like us.

  This is going to be a war. If you don’t understand the enemy, it’s the way to die. So, adults, don’t worry, tell me everything you know, one by one.

  Knowing oneself and the enemy is the only way to survive all battles, your lord, is this the truth? “
