Chapter 258 Wind and Thunder Wood Carving

He told Wang Ge about his ambition to pass the middle school craftsman examination within three years, and Huan Shi realized that it was Wang Ge who was eager to go to the border county. It is common for craftsmen to go to border counties, and it is common for craftsmen to go to border counties in barren counties. Wang Ge was surprised.

If you are a talented craftsman and are not afraid of hardship, you may be able to realize your wish.

When Huan Zhen saw that his uncle had been silent for a long time, a servant came to bring him snacks, so he went to the side to eat without making any noise to disturb him.

The county office changed the minimum period for junior craftsmen to serve as officials to three years, in fact, in order to retain Wang Ge. If the old rule was five years, Wang Ge would probably go straight to Shanyin County. Huan Shi's brows furrowed again

, Man’s calculation is not as good as God’s calculation, I didn’t expect this little girl to be so decisive!

He clenched and loosened his fist several times, and he already understood Wang Ge's reason for improving the plow as soon as he returned home. This girl is really smart, and she wanted to make another huge contribution to the county office before leaving. Yes.

It is difficult for a carpenter to make a greater contribution than improving plows. So, how can the county office drag her along and force her to stay?

Of course, the person who benefits the most is a county official. The new plow will give Huan Shi the qualifications to be transferred to the first county! Anyway, since she has ambitions, he will help her to better fulfill her and choose for her.

A border county that is more conducive to achievements! "The first difficulty is that the border county is far away and it is a long journey. How to travel?"

Huan Zhen raised his head in surprise, and his uncle responded! He didn't care about eating, and said: "I asked Tie Lei to teach Wang Ge how to ride a horse. The purpose is to go quickly, so I have to ask my uncle to issue a road guide on official business grounds. Then we can

Passing houses along the way to replenish supplies." This kind of official road leads to extraordinary people's passing, and the guarantor official must be the county magistrate.

Huan Shi nodded: "I just got a good horse, named 'Bai Rong', and it hasn't been tamed yet. You can take it away tomorrow morning and give it to Wang Ge." Except for Huan Zhen's mount, the rest of Wei Ting's horses were ordinary horses.

I'm afraid it's not possible to travel such a long distance. It was a coincidence that Bai Ju happened to be in the official residence where Wang Ge was temporarily staying.

"I understand, uncle, don't worry." Good horses are rare, and he will take good care of Bai Rong.

"The second difficulty is that after the county martial arts competition, there will be many people watching Wang Ge. If these people know that you followed her to the border county, they can guess your purpose."

"Wang Tian intends to go with me."

Huan Shi shook his head: "He alone is not enough. The sky is high and the sky is high, who doesn't want to fight for military exploits? If there is anyone who muddies the waters, it will take three to five years to find out. Can you wait? So we have to choose another royal family.

The descendants of a clan are powerful and must be trusted by the court."

After Huan Zhen turned a street, Feng Merchant drove an ox cart towards him. Seeing the two horses riding side by side, he quickly led the ox as close to the road as possible.

An embroidery bag fell from the cargo pole tied to the oxcart rail. Feng Merchant was afraid of being hit by the horse and did not dare to pick it up. Huan Zhen dismounted and held his mount. Feng Merchant thanked him first, then picked up the embroidery bag and looked at Huan Zhen again.

, he looked surprised: "It's Mr. Lang? Does Mr. Lang still remember me?"

The reason why Ling Huanzhen was not sure was that the two sisters on the wooden sign did not look like the Wang Ge sisters.

This is the most difficult thing. Huan Zhen reflected on himself. He thought of the war too simply. The soldiers in the border counties were all brave and brave, so how could it be so easy to make meritorious deeds? Furthermore, the battlefield situation was chaotic and it was too easy for the merit to be divided up. He had to beware of hidden arrows!

By the way, he remembered something again: "Uncle Clan, do you want to spread the word so that people can imitate me?"

It's quite a coincidence. However, what Huan Zhen was interested in was not the craftsmanship, but the paintings carved on the two inner logs. The top is wind, the bottom is thunder. There are no words "wind, thunder", but the viewer can tell at a glance.

Know what the carver wants to express.

"Yes, yes." Those who can ride horses are all wealthy people. Feng Merchant saw that the other party was in a hurry, so he immediately took out the most expensive basket and opened it. "Look, Sir, here are all good things from Shanyin County. Look.

, these wooden signs are so finely carved. They were made by quasi-carvers in the county competition. With this kind of craftsmanship, the carvers must have been certified as master craftsmen. There are also these two pairs of jumps, with various colors of sea.

When the sun shines on the skin, the color flashes, as if it has been powdered. It is really beautiful."

"I understand, the best candidate... Sima Chong!" Huan Zhen learned again. The clan uncle emphasized the word "chaotang", which refers to your majesty. The clan trusted by your majesty lives in Cuiyi County.

There is only Sima Daoji from Hefang Township. Sima Daoji is engaged in history for Sili, but everyone who works in Sili's office is one of His Majesty's close aides.

It hurts people's hearts! Magistrate Huan was very depressed. This horse should not be called Bai Rong, but White Eyed Wolf.

Huan Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and warned himself that he must not be arrogant when doing things in the future. He must learn from his uncle's way of thinking about things like tonight, and think deeply about everything before doing it.

Huan Zhen originally wanted to wait for the other party to finish speaking before getting on his horse. When he was perfunctorily looking at the utensils, he was attracted by the falling wooden signs.

Feng Merchant followed the other party's gaze and held up the wooden sign: "Mr. Sir, please take a closer look. This is a sachet pendant, carved from a whole piece of wood. The upper and lower inner round wood pieces are connected by an axis to the two outer rings. I will compare them."

But, the wood pieces inside are the same size as copper coins and can be rotated. Look, right? You can see how clever the craftsman who carved the wood is."

On the wind sign, there is a little girl carrying a boy on her back, walking in a hurry. The two sisters were frightened by the strong wind, especially the little girl, whose steps were blown by the strong wind. The boy grabbed one hand towards the sky, Huan

It's a real wooden sign. On the back is... Kudzu?

Just like the kudzu vines he asked Wang Ge to carve on one end of the bamboo ruler last year, they are all spiraling upwards and pointing towards the sky, showing their perseverance. Is it a coincidence? Or was this wooden tool really made by Wang Ge?

The next day, the servants brought Bai Rongju over and told Magistrate Huan that, according to the maid, Wang Ge went to the craftsman's shop at dawn.

Military officials with ordinary backgrounds hate noble children trying to grab credit the most. Once the three of them go, they will be targeted everywhere. They will simply make a big fuss. There will be too many noble children, so the military officials will not be able to keep an eye on them.

Huan Zhen left the county office after breakfast. He looked back at the officials' residence with a nostalgic look, and then walked forward carefree, without even looking at Magistrate Huan.

Magistrate Huan felt different this time. Wang Ge was indeed eager to improve plows, but he was even more anxious to travel far.

Huan Shi: "The third difficulty is military merit. What kind of merit is enough for the court to make an exception and reward him with the quota of a young guard?"

With Wang Tian and Sima Chong accompanying him, if some people join him to go to the border counties to gain merit or win military exploits, the governor of Kuaiji County and Sili Shi will be offended as well.

"tumbler."

Huanshi rolled his sleeves and smiled: "No need. As soon as you leave Chuyi County, the news will spread out. Those who set off later than you may arrive at the border county first." The meaning of the young guard camp is different. How can each family be willing to allow their descendants to end up in a county?

Wu Bi was buried? Whatever the clan nephew can think of, others can also think of.

The streets around the county office are the favorite places for salesmen from various townships. Huan Zhen also felt as if he had seen each other before. Salesman? Salesman... I remembered it! In Jiashe Village.

Looking at the thunder sign again, the sister and brother's clothes have not changed. They are taking shelter from the rain under a tree, with raindrops scratched by carving knives all around their feet. The sister's left hand hugs the brother's left shoulder tightly, and his right ear is close to her left waist.

, she awkwardly covered her brother's left ear with her right hand, and both of them hunched their shoulders, but brother's eyes were tightly closed, his face facing down, and his sister looked at the sky, her fear was extremely obvious.

On the back of the rotating thunder sign, the "raindrops" look messy at first glance, but if you carefully distinguish them, they can be gathered into four words: House of Kindness.

Chuanshe: In this article, it refers to a place that provides food and accommodation for officials when they travel.

Jump off: refers to the bracelet.
