After reviewing the county soldiers, Kong Fang and Fang Shiqing returned to the captain's office.
Although the name of the captain's office was given by Kong Fang, due to well-known reasons, Kong Fang almost never entered it.
Although Fang Shiqing was speechless along the way, he still maintained his usual aloofness, but Kong Fang felt that she no longer excluded him from entering her office, so he followed him in.
On the front wall of the office hangs a picture of a tiger descending a mountain; on the left is a map of Qinghe County; on the right is the wooden frame where she hangs her swords and armor.
There is a stack of papers on the desk.
The entire office is simple, tough and has a military atmosphere everywhere.
Fang Shiqing took off his sword and armor and hung them up. Kong Fang honestly found a chair and sat down by himself. The orderly brought him tea. After the orderlies retreated, Fang Shiqing finally spoke.
"Your training methods are very good. Where did you learn them?"
Yes, the moment you open your mouth, you will give a proposition!
With Fang Shiqing's intelligence and sophistication, could she be deceived as easily as Fang Shibo? Kong Fang habitually glanced at Fang Shiqing's waist.
At this moment, there is no sword on her waist. The sword is hanging on the knife holder.
Fang Shiqing noticed his eyes, but she didn't speak. Suddenly she felt some sympathy for the man. The high-spirited look he had when he first entered the Fang Mansion is vividly visible in his mind, but in front of him he was just sullen, walking on thin ice all the time.
But can you blame her?
The corners of Fang Shiqing's mouth raised slightly. The prince charming in her heart is a general who rides a tall horse, is extremely powerful, and dominates the battlefield.
She couldn't look down on him as a talented scholar with thin arms and legs!
Humph, you actually want to be bullied on the wedding night. My aunt is not a soft girl who can be bullied by you!
Therefore, all the mistakes are your fault and have nothing to do with this aunt.
"Hey, I have a question for you!"
Fang Shiqing calmed down and stopped threatening with a knife, but his tone...
Still very aggressive.
"I……"
Sweat broke out on Kong Fang's forehead, "If I said it was taught by the Supreme Master, would you believe it?"
"Puch..."
Fang Shiqing smiled before he said anything, "Do you think I am Shi Bo?" After saying this, he saw Kong Fangzheng looking at him infatuatedly, and couldn't help feeling embarrassed.
"Why are you staring at me?"
"You look so beautiful when you smile!" Kong Fang was still immersed in Fang Shiqing's beauty that bloomed instantly, and he didn't hear her anger, which was completely from the bottom of his heart.
Hearing this, Fang Shiqing became even more shy, his pretty face flushed, and his ears burning.
"stop looking!"
"Believe it or not, I will dig out your eyeballs!" She threatened, but her tone was no longer domineering and indifferent as before, but instead had a hint of shyness.
Kong Fang withdrew his eyes and held on to the impulse in his heart. The Marquis of Fire hadn't arrived yet, so he didn't dare to do anything too intimate, for fear that she would become angry out of humiliation.
If I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, there's no way this girl can escape from the palm of my hand.
The atmosphere in the office was a little awkward. Kong Fangzheng secretly hated himself for being clumsy and not good at mobilizing the atmosphere. Cao Yan asked for a meeting. Kong Fang and Fang Shiqing breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. The two had been grudges for so long that it was difficult to find a topic to talk about. Cao Yan's appearance just resolved each other's embarrassment.
Cao Yan was originally hired by Kong Fang to "write" "Journey to the West" for him. Because Fang Shibo came back, Kong Fang simply asked him to be the quartermaster of the county army, changing from a short-term worker to a long-term worker.
Although the monthly salary is far less than the twenty-five taels of silver for ghostwriting, it is more expensive because it is a long-term job. Even if the master is promoted, he may rise with the tide.
So Cao Yan was extremely grateful to his master.
Recently, the master arranged for his first wife Cao to work in a pig farm and became a female pigherder. The gratitude to the master in his heart increased by ten thousand points.
"master...."
When Cao Yan entered the door, he bowed his head to the ground facing Kong Fang, his voice choked with sobs.
Kong Fang helped him up and asked, "Can Cao Junshi adapt to military work?"
"Adapt, adapt."
Cao Yan nodded repeatedly.
"Cao's military performance is quite good." Fang Shiqing was in an inexplicably happy mood and he did not hesitate to praise Cao Yan. Cao Yan burst into tears when he heard this.
Although he has only been in the army for a short time, he knows that the captain is his master's wife, so in addition to performing his duties on weekdays, he is also respectful to the captain. Today, her words are worth a thousand words of his.
The master is a help in times of need, and the kindness of knowing an opportunity; the wife is the icing on the cake, and the kindness is as great as a mountain.
After answering Kong's questions about military supplies, he respectfully resigned. It was a rare occasion for the master to come to the barracks, so he naturally understood their interests and left more time and space for them.
"Qinghe, or even the entire Baoding Prefecture, does not produce saltpeter or sulfur, and these two items are generally only purchased by drug stores, so they are almost impossible to find on the market."
"I plundered all the saltpeter and sulfur from Fang's Pharmacy and several other pharmacies, but currently I can only make ten thunderbolts."
Introduction by Fang Shiqing.
“Should we send people to other state capitals to purchase?”
Kong Fang thought about it and said, "Don't use it for the time being. There won't be any major fighting in Qinghe for the time being. These ten sky-shaking thunders are more than enough to deal with the remnants of the Litou Mountain bandits."
"In case anyone is suspicious, we can't go out and purchase them specially. In this case, you can tell our pharmacy to increase the quantity when purchasing these two items, and we will secretly accumulate them."
"Okay, it's up to you."
Fang Shiqing was so good at it that Kong Fang couldn't adapt to it for a while.
The two continued to chat about military matters, but deliberately avoided their personal issues. The atmosphere was quite harmonious, at least Kong Fang didn't need to be nervous anymore.
"Hey, how come you guys are so good?"
A head stuck out of the door. Fang Shiqing quickly turned his head and turned his back to Kong Fang. Kong Fang gritted his teeth and almost went up to lift Fang Shibo's ears.
Come on, dear brother-in-law, do you just want me and your sister to be incompatible with each other for the rest of their lives?
Don't you want to be promoted to uncle?
The world is big and your uncle is the biggest. Don’t you want to experience the feeling of being superior?
"Hey, why are you staring at me? Did I say something wrong?"
Fang Shibo got in and stood in front of Kong Fang provocatively. Kong Fang quickly lowered his head and counted the ants on the ground.
He couldn't afford to mess with a cheap brother-in-law. Not to mention that he has unicorn arms, just because Fang Shiqing, the crazy demon who supports his younger brother, is here, he doesn't dare to touch the opponent's hair.
Unless he wants to die.
"Fang Shibo, don't be rude!" Fang Shiqing suddenly reprimanded. Fang Shibo was stunned for a moment, obviously he hadn't adapted to the new situation yet. But faced with the power of his eldest sister, he could only give in.
He immediately changed his tone, "Brother-in-law, that thief is clamoring to see you."
Thief?
Fang Shiqing was confused, and Kong Fang quickly explained, "On the way to the barracks just now, I caught a thief. No, why does he want to see me? Is he in a hurry to go to jail?"
The last sentence was said by Fang Shibo.
Fang Shibo shook his head, "I don't know. He just clamored to see you, and said that if you don't see him, you will regret it."
Hey, this kid, why on earth does he think he is Andy Lau?
Go and meet him.
