Chapter 248 The best toy
Lin Jinxiao pressed one hand on the copywriting on the table, his eyes blinked brightly, cold and gloomy: "Right now, the Yandao Yamen and the County Captain's Mansion are leaderless, and I don't want everyone present to commit another crime knowingly. In the name of the magistrates of the six counties, Peng Dianshi was appointed as the acting county magistrate of Haikang County, and I hope that you can work with him to reorganize the affairs of the county and return the common people to peace and tranquility as soon as possible."
"You must remember Master Lin's teachings in humble positions."
Officials at all levels responded respectfully.
Lin Jinxiao looked at Peng Pai slowly, and continued: "The imperial court only sent two thousand garrisons to Luyan Port, but it is not easy to take care of the coastal defense of six counties, and the defense of Haikang and Haining counties It is especially important, so the enlistment and the recasting of the coastal defense will be the top priority of Peng Dianshi, and the 300,000 taels of silver confiscated by the Dongsang people will be reserved for the defense offices of the two counties and three years of military expenses."
After a pause, he continued with deep eyebrows: "The occupied land must be returned to the people, so that all the people in the city and the fishermen on the seaside can live and work in peace and contentment as much as possible, and no longer drift on the sea. Now that the national treasury is empty, I will report to the imperial court to leave 500,000 taels for disaster relief, and fill the rest into the national treasury."
Thinking about the previous tax and bank case, he reminded Peng Pai earnestly: "On the way to escort, Peng Dianshi must send more people to prevent any mistakes."
"Remember, the lower officials will not dare to slack off in the slightest."
Peng Pai replied passionately, and he saw the dawn of tomorrow in Haikang County in his eyes.
After lunch, and resting in the house for half an hour, Chu Nanzhi led Sibao and Liu Shuyang out, and went to the downtown area in the south of the city to pick out a box of rouge for the son-in-law, thinking that Liu Yun had pawned all the jewelry back then. Came to save the original owner's family, and picked out some jewelry for her, sisters Chu Nanxiang and Chu Nanzhu.
Sibao saw that Aunt had bought gifts for both grandma and aunt, and said with pursed lips, "Aniang, I want it too."
"Okay, how about buying two interesting toys for you and your brothers and sisters?"
Chu Nanzhi had an idea, and looked at the little guy with a smile like a flower.
Si Bao was overjoyed when he heard that, and jumped up and down to follow her to buy toys.
Afterwards, Chu Nanzhi brought the Four Treasures to a Wenbaozhai, a place that specializes in selling pens, inks, papers and inkstones.
Sibao is the one who dislikes reading and calligraphy the least among the little guys, and his name is still written crookedly.
Seeing that A Niang brought him to this kind of place, and seeing the pens, inks, papers and inkstones placed in Wen Baozhai, Sibao immediately felt dizzy, and pulled Chu Nanzhi to run: "A Niang, A Niang, in fact, I You don’t need toys, as long as I have the ceramic dolls at home.”
"That's not okay."
Chu Nanzhi hugged her directly, and coaxed her: "Mother's favorite is the Four Treasures, and I must buy you all the most fun toys in the world."
Sibao struggled desperately in her arms: "No, no, I don't want these."
"Your father is the most famous scholar in our county. From now on, you will be the daughter of the county magistrate's family. It would be embarrassing to go out if you can't write well, and Grandpa Chang and Grandpa Nie don't like it either."
Chu Nanzhi persuaded patiently: "If you promise mother to go back and practice calligraphy with her brothers and sisters, mother will buy you other toys later and buy you a nice new dress."
Si Bao listened with a gloomy expression, and finally nodded disconsolately.
Chu Nanzhi looked at the little guy's reluctance, frowned lightly, and whispered: "Mother doesn't like you if you are like this."
Si Bao was so frightened that he quickly nodded obediently: "Aniang, then I promise you, I will practice calligraphy with my brothers and sisters in the future."
"Well, that's how you behave."
Chu Nanzhi smiled and pinched the tip of her little nose: "Actually, the reason for your poor handwriting is the writing brush. The writing brush in Haikang County is the most famous. Mother will buy some for you back."
She walked into Wenbaozhai while talking.
Sibao didn't dare to disobey again, so he had to watch her buy a lot of brushes and inkstones.
Funing County is well-known in the Dahe Empire for its silk and bamboo, and its silk fabrics and brushes are loved by dignitaries.
Although Haikang County is located on the edge of Funing County, you can also buy high-quality silk fabrics and brushes.
Chu Nanzhi first chose a pair of Haikang pens for each of the quadruplets, and then carefully inspected them in the shop. Finally, she locked her eyes on several exquisite wooden boxes displayed in the cabinet.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper of Wenbaozhai smiled cheerfully and said, "My lady really has good eyesight. The three pairs of brushes there are all produced in Tulan County in the county. Tulan County is the place where imperial brushes are produced. Jingling City Many pens used by dignitaries originated from this place."
"Well, I heard a little bit."
Chu Nanzhi nodded knowingly.
Although the original owner could read a few words, he was not so particular about paper, ink, brush and inkstone, and was afraid of being tricked by the store, so he had to pretend to be an expert.
The glass cup that Lin Jinxiao gave her today was too expensive, she had to buy a decent gift for him in return.
Thinking about how Chang Lao and Nie Lao took care of him these days, and how Chang Lao let Mrs. Lin Jinxiao redeem the old Lin family house, I have to thank him for him.
After thinking about it, she pointed to the box in the cupboard and asked, "Excuse me, how do you sell those pairs of brushes?"
The shopkeeper made a gesture: "Fifteen taels of silver for a pair."
Chu Nanzhi almost spat out a mouthful of old blood when she heard it.
Sibao was so frightened that he pulled the corner of her clothes and whispered, "Mother, you can buy a lot of apples and bananas for fifteen taels of silver. Dad usually buys writing brushes for tens of pennies. Is this uncle here?" lie to us?"
The storekeeper heard the little boy's voice, angrily took out the brush from the cabinet, and explained angrily:
"I have always done business without deception. These pairs of pens are all selected top grade. They use Tuo wood as the tube and deer hair as the pillar. The pen tip is large and short. Rabbit hair is used for the middle and wool is used for the outside. The calligraphy is elegant and elegant, absolutely worth the money, the pens used by the master Tan of our county government all originated from Xiabaozhai."
Chu Nanzhi took a closer look, and found that it was indeed a high-quality brush. He wanted to pay back the price, but Liu Shuyang looked at such an expensive brush, and couldn't help complaining:
"These dog officials in Haikang County are naturally willing to spend money with their pens. Eldest sister, we don't have to compare with them. My brother-in-law is motivated to be a clean official. First of all, the pen has to be in sharp contrast with those dog officials. We Luyan Port Ten Wenqian's writing brush can also write well in the hands of my brother-in-law."
"Shut up."
Chu Nanzhi reprimanded the little son-in-law angrily, the shopkeeper immediately sensed something, seeing the dignified and dignified appearance of this woman, whose figure looked very similar to the woman she saw at the city gate last night, asked quickly : "Linghu is the disabled person who is new to our county, ah bah, the sixth county magistrate?"
Liu Shuyang was about to answer, but Chu Nanzhi immediately stopped him, and said to the store: "Wrap up these three pairs of brushes, I want them all."
The face of the store owner became more and more joyful, and he was not in a hurry to get a pen, but asked in a hurry: "Maybe the lady is the detective lady Chu who found out the real culprit behind the murder of Prime Minister Zhu?"
I am more sure after taking a closer look.
