Chen Dachun smiled, waved, and watched Qiu Mei enter the yard before reluctantly turning around and leaving.
At this moment, thousands of miles away, Wannian City.
Liu Rumei sat there after dinner, feeling a little uneasy.
Seeing this scene, the maid Xiaoqing came forward and asked in a low voice, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Why are you so worried all of a sudden?"
Liu Rumei suddenly sighed heavily, "If I remember correctly, it must have been ten days since Chen Xiaobei left."
After hearing what she said, you, Xiaoqing, immediately understood.
"Miss, you mean, the day is coming soon."
Liu Rumei frowned, "Yes, the mourning period for the side chamber is only one month. If it drags on for a long time and the emperor attacks again, we may..."
These words made Xiao Qing sigh, "Yes, miss, even if we don't make any mistakes, the emperor still wants to find trouble."
Liu Rumei nodded, "If we wait a few more days and brother Xiaobei doesn't come, we will have to find a way."
Miss, how could we think of a solution? How could Chen Xiaobei forget this kind of thing.
Liu Rumei looked at Xiao Qing and said, "You can't say that. Don't forget, these are the ideas Brother Xiaobei came up with to save my father. In other words, we are begging for help."
One sentence made Xiaoqing speechless. Finally, she sighed longly, "This is like a tiger falling down and being bullied by a dog. He..."
She stopped mid-sentence. Because he saw Liu Rumei's expression changing.
Xiaoqing quickly found an excuse and left.
Seeing Xiao Qing leaving, Liu Rumei couldn't help but sigh, "Brother Xiaobei, please don't keep me waiting for too long. I'm really scared."
But at this time, it was rumored that Chen Xiaobei, thousands of miles away, had not yet put this matter on the agenda.
Early the next morning, Chen Xiaobei found the captain Chen Dayong.
He has to fulfill his promise to Chen Xiaowen.
"Brother Dayong, I have something to discuss with you today."
Chen Dayong was shocked by the tone of his voice.
"Brother Xiaobei, why is this so serious?"
"Oh, it's not that important, but I'm afraid this matter will cause some criticism from everyone."
After hearing this, Chen Dayong breathed a sigh of relief, "What are you afraid of? If anyone dares to talk nonsense, I will break his legs."
"No, Brother Dayong, don't be so violent. I just want to tell you that I plan to recruit a few people to set up a transportation team, and I want Xiaowen to be the captain."
"Xiaowen." Chen Dayong suddenly opened his eyes wide.
"Brother Xiaobei, should you think about this again? Although Xiaowen is suitable for this job, but..."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "Yes, I also think he is still a little young, but there is a situation you may not know yet..."
"Xiaowen went to Mudan's house in Cuijiazhuang to propose marriage, but was rejected."
Hearing this, Chen Dayong couldn't help but chuckle, "Who doesn't know that Cui Dahe is a money addict? He may not look down on Xiaowen's family background. If Cui Dahe could lower his sights a little, Peony also got married early."
"Yes, to put it harshly, Cui Dahe is a bit contemptuous of others, but we have to help the gangster. This child is simple and capable, and it is easy to find a sweetheart. He has fallen in love with Mudan and we can't ignore it. .”
It turns out that's the case. Chen Dayong smiled and nodded, "Yes, Cui Dahe still cares about these false reputations. Otherwise, I might as well give up the village protection captain to Xiaowen."
"No, no, if you want to change the village protection team leader, you have to go to the county office to report. It's easier than just asking the transportation team leader."
Chen Dayong smiled happily, "Then I'll do as you say."
"Go back and send five or six village protection team members over, follow Xiaowen, and hand over the carriage to them. They will be responsible for selling cabbage, selling charcoal, and other carriages in the city. What do you think?" Chen Xiaobei asked with a smile.
"Okay, okay, give the carriage to them, so that you don't have to use this thing or that thing today. If the carriage breaks down, you can't find out who broke it." Chen Dayong could see that he was approving with both hands.
After the two of them discussed the list, they began to issue notices, and the village protection team members went to the big locust tree for a meeting.
Soon the village protection team members came in twos and threes. When they saw Chen Xiaobei and Chen Dayong standing there, everyone gathered around to inquire about the news first.
Chen Xiaobei and Chen Dayong were not secretive about anything they wanted to discuss in advance. I told everyone about it so that everyone would be prepared in advance. In addition, I also wanted to check everyone's attitude.
Sure enough, when they heard that Xiaowen was going to be the captain of the transportation team, everyone was still very surprised and started talking about it.
"I think Xiaowen has no problem doing this. He's much busier than him when he's in and out!"
"What are you busy with, other than catching a carriage, I can do that too."
"Hey, you can't say that. Do you think it's that easy to catch the bus?"
"You have to help people unload the goods when you send them to the county government. This is a laborious job."
Chen Xiaobei listened attentively, and frankly speaking, most people still agreed with this matter, so it would be easy to handle. Chen Xiaobei silently remembered the people who supported Chen Xiaowen in his heart, and these people should enrich themselves. In the transportation team.
As long as they recognize Chen Xiaowen, Chen Xiaowen's work will be easy to carry out in the future.
Just then, the crowd made another noise, and Chen Dachun came.
His arrival was still a bit surprising. After Chen Xiaobei greeted him with a smile, he counted the number of people. It seemed that they were almost there, and made a gesture to Chen Dayong.
Chen Dayong jumped on the stone and waved to everyone, and the scene immediately became quiet.
"Everyone, please be quiet. I told you just now that there are seven or eight carriages in our village. Brother Xiaobei and I have discussed setting up a special transportation team. In the future, there will be dedicated personnel to maintain the carriages."
Everyone still expressed their approval for this arrangement.
After all, for most people, whether there is a dedicated person or not does not seem to have any impact on them.
Chen Dachun came a little late and didn't understand what was going on, so he was a little confused. Since it was something everyone agreed to, of course he would not come out to speak against it.
Then Chen Dayong said, "With so many people coming out to set up a transportation team, there must be a leader. I discussed with Brother Xiaobei that Chen Xiaowen should be the captain of the transportation team!"
"good."
Suddenly someone took the lead and shouted.
If someone takes the lead, the rest will naturally follow suit. The villagers applauded, which made Chen Xiaobei feel more at ease.
He did not see a hint of embarrassment flash across Chen Dachun's face.
Chen Dachun turned around and left after a few hasty words. At this time, no one saw the obvious displeasure on Chen Dachun's face.
