Chapter 476

It's a pity that so many delicious seafood can't be taken back to the children at home. Seafood is more difficult to preserve than fresh meat. Even if it's frozen with ice, it can't be preserved.

The next day, when Xu Qing went shopping, she saw that many shops in the town were selling dried seafood. As soon as she saw it, she picked out a lot of high-quality dried seafood and took them away for her family to taste.

Xu Qing and Li Changting continue to drive the carriage northward and plan to go to the most prosperous coastal town in kunzhou. It is said that Yu Boming and Fu Xitang have opened restaurants and shops there. Xu Qing also wants to see the location.

But on the way, they were robbed again.

Yes, again.

This place is really chaotic. There were three robberies along the way, and this time Xu Qing almost got caught.

After all, being blocked by a woman with a child in her arms is something that everyone can't help but care about and even offer a helping hand.

As a result, as soon as Xu Qing's carriage stopped, he didn't do anything. A group of men with knives rushed out around him. They said that they had injured their relatives and asked for compensation. Otherwise, they would take them to see the officials.

Xu Qing didn't expect to see this kind of traditional touch porcelain here. He was speechless and helpless.

You want to see an official? I'll see you. Who's afraid of who.

These men really followed Xu Qing's carriage to a nearby town, and they came to the yamen gate.

These men carrying knives walked through the street, and the pedestrians in the town were as if they had seen the plague. They gave way one after another, and some even ran away.

After arriving at the yamen, the county magistrate's turbid eyes swept the woman holding the child and said directly, "ten Liang silver, pay for it."

Xu Qing snorted: "officials and bandits collude with each other, long Pavilion, bright sign."

When Li Changting took out the gold medal, the county magistrate was startled to see the gold medal. He looked at Li Changting in surprise: "you Are you the imperial envoy

Li Changting: "you have been dismissed."

County Master: --

The mountain bandit leader looked around and sneered: "what imperial envoy, I can't control him here! What are you

Li Changting kicks around with a big knife on his shoulder. The head of the mountain bandit with an arrogant face is kicked out in an instant. He bumps into the stone statue of the lion behind him and spits out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing his boss's move, he was injured by the other party. Everyone could not help but step back and stay more than two meters away from Li Changting.

Li Changting: "I haven't heard such arrogant words for a long time. Come here, take off the county magistrate's black hat and put him in prison first."

The county magistrate was detained by the terrified captor. Li Changting turned to look at the mountain bandits, "do you go to prison yourself, or do I put you in prison?"

After hearing this, the mountain bandits, like rabbits, turned and ran. With a Tut, Li Changting flew to block the way of the mountain bandits, and then cut them at him with a knife. The mountain bandits kicked them back to the yamen gate one by one.

Xu Qing walked to the woman not far away, crouching on the ground: "who are you, your wife?"

The woman looked up at Xu Qing with fear in her eyes: "I'm not. I'm not married."

Xu Qing: "whose child is that in your arms?"

Woman: "they picked it up. We are the same people who came to help them stop the passers-by..."

Xu Qing: "don't you have a home?"

The woman shook her head: "I am an orphan."

Xu Qing: "go to the Yamen and settle down. Don't be afraid. We won't hurt you."

Li Changting didn't like to clean up the mess, especially after the county magistrate was locked up. Suddenly, many people came to ask Li Changting to make the decision for them.

One by one, it's enough to listen to them talk things out clearly.

Xu Qing simply said, "after you go back, write down your grievances, mark your name and address, and send them to the Yamen. We will deal with them one by one after we have seen them."

This method made the people gathered at the yamen gate go back one after another. They were excited and hesitated for a moment, but they couldn't make it clear. It was better to write it down.

Li Changting inquired the Yamen and found out that the former magistrate died two years ago. This magistrate was later transferred to collude with the mountain bandits and cheated a lot of people's money.

Fortunately, these mountain bandits only cheat money. No matter how much they do, most of the victims come to ask him for money.

Li Changting found out the county master's private Treasury. There was a lot of silver in it. The money was just used to make up for the loss of the people.

In the evening, Xu Qing and Li Changting went through the letters sent by the common people one by one.

It's easy for those who have been pocketed to do so. Write down their names and amount, count out a total amount, and give compensation to these people without exceeding the amount of money in the Yamen Treasury.

So Xu Qing took a part-time job in finance, and the next day let the people get the compensation one by one.

As for the remaining disputes and grievances, the county magistrate has been taken into custody and removed from office. Only after the judgment has been reported to the imperial court can we know, and the rest can only give some compensation and comfort to the victims.Xu Qing and Li Changting took one day to deal with these grievances. In the evening, many people sent gifts to thank them.

These people thought that Li Changting was the new magistrate, and they were very happy.

As a result, Li Changting is actually an imperial envoy, and he does not accept the people's thanks. He will leave soon, and then a new county magistrate will come to take over the Yamen affairs.

Everyone went back in frustration.

Xu Qing went to see the woman and the child, "this is your compensation, a total of five Liang silver. Do you have any plans in the future?"

Woman: "I can make tofu. I want to make a living by it. I can always live."

Xu Qing: "this child..."

Woman: "she is also very poor. I will treat her like a sister in the future."

Xu Qing: "that's good. You come to the kitchen with me. I'll teach you a way of bean curd snacks. You can sell this kind of snacks when you sell bean curd in the future. You can earn more money."

Xu qingjiao's is the simplest fried bean curd. It's easy to do. It doesn't need much skill. As long as you are proficient, you can make it delicious.

In fact, there is another kind of tofu snack, the famous stinky tofu, but this practice is too complicated, and Xu Qing doesn't remember it very much.

However, she still wrote down some steps she remembered and gave them to the woman, so that she could have time to try them.

A woman has learned how to fry tofu. She can foresee how many customers she will attract when she sells it, but stinky tofu Can you still eat tofu when it stinks?

But she was still curious about the taste of stinky tofu. Xu Qing said it was delicious. I think it should be delicious.

After thanking Xu Qing, the woman left the Yamen with her children and was ready to rent a small shop in the town.
