Chapter 275 News from the Market Pavilion

Chapter 275 News from the City Pavilion

If you look down at Bintu County, inside and outside the city, you will look like gray architectural sketches, with almost no other color. The city walls are rammed earth, and almost all the people wear thick clothes, the houses are built with soil, and some poor yards are built with only stones on the ground, even if they are separated from the road.

The four of them followed the fragrance and found a restaurant. There were many wooden stakes outside the shop, with many cars and animals tied to them. A high wooden pole was erected near the gate of the courtyard. There was a wooden sign hanging at the end of the pole, with a picture of a cauldron engraved on it, and the heat was emitting from the cauldron. The wooden sign swayed in the wind, and the dense stick-shaped wooden pendants at the bottom hit each other, making the sound pleasant.

Wang Ge and the other two held their mounts outside, and Huan Zhen entered the yard alone.

It can be seen clearly from the outside that facing north and south is a long and narrow house. The stove is located on the east side, much smaller than the main house. There are two small pottery stoves outside the house, and the meat is stewed in the cauldron. No wonder the fragrance floats so far. The place where the meat is slaughtered and chopped is on the west side. This house is more like a shed with earthen walls, and the overall shape is "soft". Diners can clearly see how the two butchers dismantle their bones and cut meat.

The open spaces separated by these three houses are fenced with wooden pieces, and the walls of the houses also play the role of the courtyard wall.

There were ten diners who ate open air, all of whom were burly, wearing military uniforms, and wearing slap-shaped bags, and were divided into three groups of seats. It was precisely because of the soldiers who ate here that Wang Ge and his friends were relieved.

Huan was really going to enter the north room, and a female lady with a foreign appearance came out. Only the one who could tell she was not old and it was difficult to guess the specific age. The female lady first enthusiastically led Huan Zhen into the room, and soon the two of them came out in conversation.

It turned out that there were already people from a caravan who were eating, and the light in the room was also dim.

Huan Zhen asked Wang Ge and his three horses to the piles outside. There were only two empty felt mats left in the courtyard, and the four of them sat on the felt mats near the courtyard gate. Starting from Youzhou, the most common people used felt mats, and the rough ones were not as comfortable as straw mats.

The girl went into the stove and put the table in a bowl and waited for the food utensils. When she gently placed the chopsticks in front of Huan Zhen, her slender waist slightly raised and asked very familiarly: "Will you continue to go after eating?"

Wang Tian smiled "puff".

At this time, a drum sound came from the east, and it should be not far from the restaurant. The people on the road ran east. Wang Tian couldn't sit still: "What's wrong? Brother Huan, I want to see it."

It was broken, Huan Zhen was secretly shocked! This is not a good sign. The three of them must separate from Wang Ge as soon as possible.

At the same time, the female lady felt careless and looked at Sima Chong, the tallest one. Sima Chong deliberately picked the corner of her left mouth and showed the missing front teeth. The female lady immediately withdrew her mind: "I'll add some wood and stew the meat a little bit."

After the drummer finished speaking, he saw that the crowd was about to disperse, and quickly said louder: "This time I went back differently. Guangping County belonged to Sizhou! As long as I work hard, the officials saw it all. In three years, maybe you can also take your family to Sizhou. In the future, your descendants will be born in Sizhou and raised in Sizhou. Maybe you can still go to the capital to see the world!"

The people who were originally crushed by life were all so excited that their faces were blushing and their necks were thick. Someone echoed and shouted: "What are you waiting for? Isn't it just that the land for clearing is getting farther and farther away? If it's not hard, why should we leave the border county in a few years to enjoy our happiness? I don't care, I'll go to the Pavilion Office first!"

The more Wang Ge heard, the more he felt something was wrong. As soon as his gossip became, Wang Tian was so angry that he said, "My brother is by my side, and he is by my side every night."

The first thing is: On the 19th and 20th, a carpenter state-level competition will be held in Bintu County. The minimum requirement for participating in the competition is to be an intermediate carpenter or a double junior carpenter. The first place in the state competition will be recorded until the craftsman's resume, and the first place in the county-level competition will be available for three times; the second place will be available for the county-level competition. The question of this assessment is wood machinery improvement. For the specific situation, please ask the county carpenter shop, and the registration is also there. I hope that the people will spread this news.

"Stay stay overnight with the guests."

Wang Ge: "I'll accompany Wang Langjun?"

“Has it changed to a permanent resident?”

The drum officer conveyed two things in total.

"Haha." Not far from the felt mat, one of the two soldiers was laughing out loud.

Wang Ge secretly said "tsk" twice. She still couldn't adapt to the openness of some aspects of this era. Unexpectedly, the border counties were even more. Not to mention Wang Tian, ​​even Sima Chong, who was a little older, was also a junior high school student in her previous life.

Huan Zhen waved his hand, and the two stood up happily and ran as soon as they left the yard. Huan Zhen smiled and withdrew her gaze, she happened to find that Sima Chong was also smiling slightly. The other party must have not smiled at A Tian!

The girl was not annoyed, and she smiled and angrily, Wang Tian looked at her. This attention immediately made her fall in love with her. Xiaolang's eyebrows and eyes were surprisingly handsome! Oh, it's a pity, she is too young.

"What should I do? My home is far away. I will be unable to catch up when I come back?"

"Where is the stay? If it's hard to find a place, I can..."

The next thing is: The contract period for a group of tenant farmers in Duting County has arrived. These hundred tenant farmers go to Guangping County and Taishan County respectively to become the Tingmen. As before, the period for the Tingmen to open up land and rent is three years. Therefore, Duting needs to add hundreds of tenant farmers, regardless of ethnic group or tribe, children or daughters, and more than three adults in each household can meet the requirements. Tenants who are over 60 years old and younger than the second, will be managed by Duting two meals a day. They will also go to Duting Office to register immediately.

Wang Ge was squeezed out again. Fortunately, Wang Tian squeezed forward and rushed to say, "Uncle, we just arrived at the guest, but even if we ran to Xiangping County in the afternoon, we might not be able to register once we went back and forth."

Wang Ge squeezed over again, gritting his teeth: "Brother, what are the craftsmen who lost the Pingzhou competition?"

The drum officer: "Your situation is common, please be more aware of it. In the border county, carpenters have the most competitions, so don't be in a hurry. In addition, you can go to the county carpenter shop in the afternoon to ask. If you give two days of registration time, you don't have to be in a hurry."

"I'll go too, I'll go too."

The place where the drum beats was a city pavilion. The drummer had a leg stunted, leaning on crutches in one hand and holding drumsticks in the other. The people who listened to him had already surrounded him for several floors. Wang Ge and the other kept jumping up while listening carefully.

There were also many people like Wang Ge, who were in the opposite direction with the crowd and squeezed to the drum officer to ask about things. Wang Ge's hair was squeezed and he finally squeezed out half of his body. It was too noisy around her. She stretched her upper body sideways and shouted: "Uncle! I am a carpenter in Yangzhou, double junior! The first time I heard about the state competition, can I participate in it?"

The drummer replied seriously: "Login and build houses, build weapons, make coffins, and make cars, haha, you will understand when you go to the carpenter shop. But the girl is so young, she must be a craftsman with skill, right? There are few competitions for skilled skills in the border counties. It's bad. I forgot to remind you, everyone will listen! This state competition can only be participated by Tiangong skills."

Wang Ge's heart sank. Could it be that Pingzhou still doesn't know that there are more branches of "military craftsmen" in the category of carpenters?

There was a group of female cavalrymen standing behind the crowd, wearing rings and swords, armor and croakers. They all followed the leader to look at the drum officer. At the same time, they also noticed that it was very interesting to squeeze out a little girl from the crowd. The other party was obviously a Han girl, who was only in his early 10 years old, and his face was covered with yellow earth. He must have just come from afar, and his headscarf was squeezed out and he was in a mess. The voices were so noisy just now, but they couldn't cover her high voice, which showed that her character was cool.

"Minister of the County, what a coincidence, isn't our Liaodong County in a hurry to recruit cavalry?"

Xun Guan laughed and said, "Maybe, it's really a coincidence."
