Qu Huan bowed deeply, and he instantly understood what his father meant.
"Thank you father for your teachings. I will definitely work hard, kid."
"Yes, very good." Qu Zhongyi nodded with satisfaction: "I have been in seclusion for so long. It's time to relax. After seeing your mother in a while, you can go to the accountant to pay some money."
"Thank you father, I'll take my leave!" Qu Huan bowed and left the main hall.
Watching Qu Huan leave, Qu Zhongyi showed a happy smile: "My son has a holy figure, and he will definitely lead my Qu family to compete for that place!"
…
Xu Mansion, Zheyang County
In the early morning, Xu Que stood at the window and looked at the sky outside.
Huang Qianying opened the door and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"Thinking about something." Xu Que looked away, turned around and smiled: "You said that the day has changed so fast, is it because of me? Or is the situation changing?"
Huang Qianying rolled her eyes at him and replied: "You are not a saint, of course the situation is changing."
Xu Cao nodded: "Yes, because the situation has changed, I have also changed..."
Huang Qianying had no intention of immediately asking Xu Que, so she took out her tools and started to stir up her stuff.
"What's the name of this thing of yours?" Xu Que asked, looking at the metal pipe in Huang Qianying's hand.
"My dad called it an umbrella because it looked like an umbrella when it was launched, so he gave it this name."
Huang Qianying picked up the steel needles and filled them. It seemed to be very simple, but it was still quite complicated to actually do it.
“This name is so earthy, it’s not as domineering as Heavy Rain Pear Blossom Needle!”
"Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle?" Huang Qianying murmured a few words and found that the name was indeed very good, and it fit the object quite well.
"You're right with the name, let's call it Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle from now on!" Huang Qianying said with satisfaction.
Xu Que was speechless. He just wanted to find a topic to talk about. He didn't expect this young lady to be so obedient...
Just when Xu Que was still wanting to chat about some topics, the little girl stretched out her head and looked into the room.
"Why are you so sneaky and you don't know how to knock on the door!" Xu Que said looking at the little girl.
"I just want to tell you. The master asked me to tell you. Later, when I heard you talking, I just wanted to take a look..." Xin'er pouted and said.
"My father is looking for me?" Xu Que asked doubtfully.
"Yes, a middle-aged man in white clothes came to the house, so the master asked me to come and call you."
Xu Que was speechless. He found that except for the food that could stimulate Xin'er, other things seemed to have no effect at all...
"Remember, you have to knock on the door next time!" Xu Que knocked Xiner's little head and walked outside.
The little girl pouted, but the next moment she laughed because she saw the beautiful sister waving to her.
"Here you go, remember what your brother said." Huang Qianying took out a piece of candy and handed it to Xin'er.
Seeing that it was crispy candy sold outside, Xin'er quickly nodded in agreement...
When Xu Que just stepped into the main hall, he saw the middle-aged man in white that Xin'er mentioned.
"Que'er, why don't I meet your Uncle Li An yet!" Xu Maocai introduced with a smile.
Upon hearing that this person was Li An, Xu Que quickly bowed his hands and said, "My nephew, Xu Que, has met Uncle Li An!"
"Haha, are you Xu Que?" Li An showed a satisfied smile and praised: "Okay, I didn't expect you to be such a talented person!"
"Uncle Li An is overly praised. My nephew only did some meager efforts." Xu Que replied with a smile.
"Well, don't be impatient. The old prince is alive in heaven and will definitely be very happy."
No one felt uncomfortable at all when Li An took out the old Duke to make matters worse, because this person was the Protector of the Letter Banner in the Forty-Eight Cloud Cavalry under the old Duke!
Forty-eight Cloud Riders, everyone is definitely awesome. Everyone is good at different things, and Li An is an expert at delivering messages.
Not only did he have the identity of a man, he even made up a unique way of transmitting signals.
At that time, it was widely rumored that the Xu family's soldiers were invincible and would win every battle. In fact, Li An's contribution was due here, because on the ancient battlefield, signals were the only thing that could convey messages. With this special signal, the Xu family's soldiers Only then can you know the instructions conveyed by your superiors.
Therefore, Xu Que admires this man as much as Liu Bo!
"Zifeng, as soon as you leave, the war will start over there, right?" Uncle Liu asked.
Zifeng is Li An's font name. Although he did not get a Jinshi in high school, his teacher chose the font size for him when he was a scholar.
"Well, judging by the time, the army should have left camp by this time." Li An nodded.
After hearing Li An's words, everyone turned their attention to Xu Que, because this battle is not about winning or losing, but about whether Xu Maofeng and others can survive.
"Uncle Li An, did you tell me anything before you left?" Xu Que asked.
"The young master is indeed very smart. The eldest master asked his subordinates to give you something." Li An said and took out a bamboo tube from his sleeve.
"Should I open it later?" Xu Que took the bamboo tube and cushioned it.
"Impossible, this is a signal transmitter." Li An quickly stopped Xu Que and said, "The elder said that as long as you seize the opportunity and send a signal near the Bingdaokou, they can appear to attack the Beimang army."
Xu Que nodded understandingly, and then returned the bamboo tube to Li An.
"What do you mean, young master?" Li An didn't quite understand.
Everyone was also puzzled. Xu Maofeng obviously gave this to Xu Que, but why did he give it back to Li An?
"Uncle seems to have misunderstood." Xu Que explained with an embarrassed smile: "He wants to leave this credit to me, but I am only a Wenji level person now. If I fly to the military crossing, it will definitely delay the fighter plane, so this Let’s leave the matter to your Uncle Li An.”
"Young master, you are a great talent, haven't you passed the exam yet?"
As soon as Li An said the words, he realized something. Then he remembered that the person who had been in contact with him was Xu Fan...
"Don't blame me, young master. It's my subordinate's fault." Li An quickly apologized deeply.
"It's okay, Uncle Li An." Xu Que said nonchalantly: "When Beimang's army attacks our Nanfeng Prefecture, I will be on the list. But before that, I'll trouble you to go there in person."
"Don't worry, young master, I, Li An, am willing to go through fire and water for the Xu family!" Li An solemnly gave a fist-clenching salute.
As Li An expressed his loyalty again, Xu Maocai and others also began to discuss the current deployment issues.
Just as everyone was preparing to build a defensive offensive according to Xu Que's suggestion, Xu Si trotted into the main hall.
"Young Master, Young Master, the Thirty Mile River Embankment has been built!" Xu Si said happily, regardless of other people's looks, with his fists clasped in his hands.
"Is it completed?"
Xu Que was very shocked. He knew the situation there best. He didn't expect that it could be built in five and a half days!
"Yes, according to your request, the refugees worked day and night and finally completed it." Xu Si replied with a smile.
Day and night?
Xu Que was stunned. Now he finally understood how the thirty-mile river embankment was built!
"Uncle Liu, prepare 300,000 taels for me!" Xu Que whispered with red eyes: "Xu Si, you go back to the river beach first, settle all the migrant workers to rest, and tell them that I will go to the river beach in the afternoon to personally help They give out money!”
"Yes, young master!" Xu Si cupped his fists and saluted, turned around and ran out.
"Que'er, the matter of building the city..."
Before Xu Maocai could finish his words, Xu Que interrupted his father and said, "Father, it's not easy for those refugees. Let them have a good rest for two days. You and Uncle Liu can choose again the next day."
Xu Maocai nodded. He naturally understood what Xu Que meant and also knew that this kind of thing should not be rushed.
Li An, who was sitting next to him, didn't know what was going on, but when he heard about Thirty Miles River Embankment, he asked Uncle Liu in a low voice.
After Uncle Liu told Li An the truth one by one, Li An was completely shocked. He originally admired Xu Que's talent, but now one thing after another made him start to admire Xu Que... …
For a scholar like him, the most admired person is Xu Que. Not only is he unparalleled in resourcefulness, but he can also help the people. He is truly a saint!
