Chapter 608 Good Guy
And Lu Desheng, who was worried about Zhang Xian, was traveling to Pingzhou with Master Chen Dinghuai, Cui Chunhua and others.
Chen Dinghuai discovered that there were a lot of vendors doing business in Pingzhou.
They randomly picked a food stall with a lot of people, and after ordering some food, they sat at the outermost table. There were two tables for their group.
As soon as they sat down, they saw a woman carrying a basket on her back and holding a child in her hand. She greeted the proprietress of the stall, "Niece, please have a wonton." After that, she sat at the empty table next to them. Sat down.
After the landlady agreed, she chatted with the other party while busy working, "Aunt Lai, look at your smiling face. Why are you so happy?"
"Look, what I bought at the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce Daily Cereals and Oils Store." As she said that, the woman carefully took out something from the basket on her back.
When the lady boss saw it, she was surprised and said, "Hey, it's a hot water kettle with an iron sheet and glass interior! This thing is not easy to buy."
"That's not true." The Liaodong Chamber of Commerce has stipulated that each household is limited to purchasing two. Basically, as soon as the goods arrive, they are guaranteed to be sold out within half an hour.
"But this thing is really good. If you pour boiling water into it, it can keep it warm for a long time." The proprietress has one at home and knows its function very well.
"Yes, with this thing, you don't have to keep the fire burning in the stove on winter nights, but you can also drink a sip of hot water." Aunt Lai laughed, "Our doctors in Pingzhou have always emphasized that we should boil the water and drink it. , especially children, cannot eat raw water because there are unclean things in the water that we can’t see with the naked eye.”
"I was still muttering in my mind that it was troublesome because of people's fickleness. But my son and daughter-in-law felt that what the doctor said made sense and decided to do it. Strangely enough, after our family insisted on drinking boiled water, the children no longer had stomach upsets. ”
The landlady laughed and said, "You see, what the doctors said makes sense."
Lu Desheng and his party were nearby and listened to the conversation between the two of them.
Ji Chunhua took a look at it, and then asked Lu Desheng, "I remember seeing two of these iron glass-lined hot water kettles at Mr. Pan's place."
"Oh, are you talking about this tin-glass inner hot water kettle? That comes from our No. 7 Engineering Institute." Lu Desheng glanced at it and said lightly, "The headmaster and ladies of Liaodong Academy all distribute hot water kettles. Everyone Just two.”
As if no one can hear the show off in your tone! Cui Chunhua curled his lips and stopped talking. Talking to Lu Desheng can make people angry to death.
At this time, the food ordered by Lu Desheng and others came one after another.
Chen Dinghuai noticed that the wontons ordered by the aunt just now were also served. She was feeding them to the child, and the child kept asking her to eat them too.
From this pair of grandparents, he saw the virtues of a loving mother and a son, filial piety, humility and courteousness. As the saying goes, if you have a solid warehouse, you will know the etiquette, and if you have enough food and clothing, you will know the honor and disgrace. Pingzhou allows the people under its jurisdiction to live a promising life.
During his time in Pingzhou, he saw that the entire Pingzhou was filled with vitality. Here, the sadness and numbness on the faces of the people disappeared, and the whole person seemed to come alive.
Although the people in Pingzhou are not yet wealthy. But Pingzhou protected them and did not let the war get close to them and sweep them away. Pingzhou lets them know that the future is full of hope, and as long as they work hard, life will get better and better.
As soon as they finished eating, they saw many people rushing in one direction.
Lu Desheng quickly grabbed a person and asked, "What happened? Why are you all running over there?"
"There's a fight ahead!"
Fight? What's going on?
"Hey, don't you guys in Pingzhou have outstanding people? Why are there still people fighting?" Cui Chunhua gloated.
Lu Desheng rolled his eyes at him, "What's wrong with someone fighting? Your upper and lower lips are still touching!"
Then he asked Chen Dinghuai, "Chen Shanchang, let's go over and take a look?"
"good."
When Lu Desheng and his party arrived, they found that the man had just been arrested and taken away quickly. Recently, there have been a large influx of people in Pingzhou, and frictions are inevitable. The Yamen has always arranged for police officers to patrol the streets.
They had no choice but to follow, and on the way they finally found out what had happened. It turned out to be a young man from out of town who stole two buns from the bun shop and was caught.
After arriving at the Yamen, they found that the Yamen had been promoted to court.
"It's pretty fast." Cui Chunhua muttered.
Chen Dinghuai was also surprised by Pingzhou's speed.
Lu Desheng: "A small case like this, not complicated, was settled in court."
Moreover, Lu Desheng discovered that the person who solved the case was still an acquaintance - Zhou Bo, who had become a county official from a lawyer.
"Thief, get out of Pingzhou!"
Snap!
"Quiet!"
With a slap on the wrist, Zhou Bo glanced at the man.
At this time, Boss Zhu from the bun shop came forward to explain the situation, "This young man from a foreign country stole two meat buns from me."
Zhou Bo asked the young man, "Is the situation true?"
The young man lowered his head, "I admit that I stole the buns. But I didn't steal the buns for myself. My parents haven't eaten for two days! I don't know if our money was dropped or stolen by someone on the way to Pingzhou." Stolen. I can bear it when I'm hungry, but my parents can't."
Zhou Bo: "You are kidnapping others morally. In this world, who doesn't have difficulty? Do you think you can do whatever you want if you are poor and have difficulty?"
"It's difficult for you to be poor and have no food to eat. Is it easy for people to get up early and work at night to do small business?"
The young man bowed his head as he was told this.
The people listening also nodded.
"Yeah, no matter what, stealing is wrong."
"You're a good boy, what's wrong with you?"
Boss Zhu said, "Sir, forget it, just let him pay."
Young man: "Okay, I'm willing to pay, but I have to wait until I find a job and get paid before I can pay. Boss, how much do you want to pay for two buns?"
Boss Zhu: "Two meat buns, just give ten cents."
Before Zhou Bo said anything, the people below were not happy.
"Hey, old Zhu, you are not kind. These two meat buns are left over from yesterday, right? You are ready to solve them yourself, but you are selling them at the price of freshly baked ones?"
"Speak some sense!"
"Don't bully the newbies."
"That's right, don't embarrass Pingzhou."
The neighbors talked back and forth, until Boss Zhu begged for mercy.
Zhou Bo finally said to the young man, "So, you pay him four cents and a fine of three hundred cents, which will be paid in three months. Do you accept this sentence?"
There are fines for breaking the law in Pingzhou.
The young man was dejected, "I accept it."
After signing, the young man left with his elderly and frail parents.
The enthusiastic neighbors did not leave, and someone even gave him two steamed buns.
Although the young man stole things, it can be seen that he is not a bad person, and everyone is willing to help him.
"Young man, where are you from? I heard that those who come from Liangzhou in the northern border can go to the government office to get five taels of silver for resettlement."
"We came from Guangling."
"Then there may be no resettlement allowance. Young man, there is a dental shop with a good reputation near us. You can go there and find a job. Two or three hundred coins can be paid off quickly."
"Okay, okay, thank you, I will take my parents to the dental shop to have a look."
Lv Desheng and others watched from behind and did not interfere.
Cui Chunhua shook his head, "Tsk tsk, the stranger only stole a few coins worth of buns, but you in Pingzhou fined him 300 coins? Isn't this bullying?"
Lv Desheng: "Stealing is stealing, and the crime must be punished. The fine of 300 coins is the punishment for his theft."
Chen Dinghuai nodded, "Actually, this is not bad. If there is no fine, stealing is cost-free. If you steal, you make money. If you don't steal, you just need to compensate the corresponding value of the item, which is equivalent to no loss."
Lv Desheng smiled happily, "That's it, Chen Shanzhang still sees it clearly."
Cui Chunhua said again, "You Pingzhou still use the Dali Law, right? And add your own things? This is neither fish nor fowl..."
"What's wrong with using the Dali Law? Our current development focus in Pingzhou is not on this, but you wait, sooner or later we Pingzhou will have our own code!"
While bickering, Lv Desheng took them to the carriage.
When Cui Chunhua reacted, he found that the carriage had left the city. "Where is this?"
Recently, Lv Desheng took them to wherever there was prosperity. Why did he bring them to this cold place this time?
Lv Desheng said, "The Xilin Cemetery in Longcheng is in front."
"Cemetery?" Chen Dinghuai and Cui Chunhua looked at each other, wondering why Lv Desheng brought them to the cemetery.
"Here we are. This is the tomb of General Qin Yue." Lv Desheng took three incense sticks and bowed to the tombstone.
After Qin Heng brought the remains of General Qin back to Pingzhou from the northern border, he decided to bury them in Longcheng after discussion.
Hearing this, Chen Dinghuai and others straightened their expressions. General Qin Yue, that is indeed worthy of their worship.
Then, Lv Desheng took them to the other side.
"What is this?"
"The cenotaph of the late emperor."
Chen Dinghuai, Cui Chunhua and others:...
Good guy, they shouted good guy. You, Pingzhou, rebelled against the Song family and even built a cenotaph for them?
