===========
"Gas masks" are sold in the front row. Many readers commented that this chapter is poisonous, but this chapter involves rhythm, so we can only sell gas masks and poison resistance potions in advance to reduce the number of poisons everyone is poisoned.

============
Uncle Zheng stared wide-eyed, observing secretly.

This, how is this possible.

He has been doing porcelain work all his life, and he has never seen two pieces of porcelain joined together to prevent water leakage.

He remembered the soft object that Li Chusai stuck in the mouth of the porcelain bottle just now, could it be the credit of this object?

He gave the bottle to Uncle Zheng, who immediately took it and opened the lid, carefully studying the sealing ring.

After Li Chu paid the second batch of deposits and agreed on a time to pick up the goods, he left the folk kiln factory.

It was getting late, and he had to go to the county seat.

Li Chu found a handlebar, rented a flatbed carriage, and took Axiu and Carpenter Li to Xiangcheng County.

I took Carpenter Li because I needed Carpenter Li's help to buy tables and chairs. Li Chu didn't know where to find them in the county, and I needed Carpenter Li to help transport them back to Rufen Town later.

Axiu wanted to purchase ingredients, and when they arrived in Xiangcheng County, the three of them separated, letting the driver go with Carpenter Li. Li Chu gave the money for the table to Carpenter Li first, and let him finish the tables and chairs and ship them directly later. Go back to Rufen Town.

Li Chu, on the other hand, came to the county government office in Xiangcheng County alone.

"Please inform the county venerable, and say that Rufen Li Chu has a clever plan, and I wish the county lord all the way to the top."

After stuffing a small penny into the messenger's hand, the latter happily ran in to report.

Not long after, Li Chu met the county magistrate of Xiangcheng County in the back hall. This county magistrate had just put on his official uniform and black gauze, with a mustache and small eyes, and he was about forty years old.

"Li Chu, from Rufen Town, what do you want to do with me?"

The maid served Li Chu a cup of tea and stepped back. Li Chu picked it up and put it on the tip of his nose to smell it gently, but he didn't drink it. As a foodie, he knew exactly what the tea was like at this time, so he didn't drink it.

After putting down the teacup, Li Chu picked up the package on the side, and unwrapped it, revealing stacks of snow-white A3 white paper, the quantity is not much, just one package, and the outer packaging has been given to the recycling system by him.

"This……"

As soon as the A3 white paper was revealed, Xian Zun's eyes straightened.

Li Chu chuckled, took out two sheets from the stack of white papers, put them on the county lord's desk, then went back, picked up the teacup, put it down again, and greeted the waiter by the door The maid comes over.

"Remove the tea and replace it with a cup of warm water."

Seeing the county gentleman carefully holding a piece of A3 paper and gently stroking it, as if stroking a beauty, Li Chu didn't speak, picked up the warm water, and drank it slowly.

After walking for half the morning, I didn't even have time to drink water.

As for the county magistrate, let him watch slowly and see enough, the longer he watches, the greater the effect it will manifest.

Time passed by, Li Chu drank three cups of hot water, and went to the hut to relieve himself.

After a long time like this, the county lord carefully placed the printing paper on the desk slowly and let out a sigh.

"What is this paper called?"

"This paper has no name for now, but it can be given a name by the county lord."

"Really?" The county lord's eyes lit up, and his heart was filled with joy.

"Not false."

The county venerable stroked his mustache and murmured: "This paper is exquisite and luxurious, and feels very good to the touch. It is really a top-notch product. Let me consider the matter of giving it a name."

Finally, he asked, "What is the mass production value of this paper?"

"It's all there."

Li Chu turned sideways, pointed to the tea table next to him, and the stack of A3 white papers in the opened package.

"what."

"Is that so?"

The county venerable exclaimed, beyond his expectation, there is only such a stack, that, that... that is precious.

Rare things are precious, let alone this more noble white paper.

As a literati, Xianzun is very aware of the gold content of this paper. It can be said that this is the most exquisite paper he has ever seen in his life. He was lucky enough to get a piece of imperial rice paper. Compared with this paper, If you take a closer look, the paper is even more exquisite.

Now, the county venerable more or less guessed Li Chu's intention.

I wish the deity all the way to the top?With the help of this treasure, how can you not rise all the way?
"What do you want?"

The county official stood up and walked over. Instead of reaching out to touch the stack of A3 papers immediately, he squatted down and looked closely with his two small eyes.

"Official status, the county lord is in charge of the affairs of the county, and he only wants to seek an official status under the county lord."

It's easy to seek an official position under my own tenure.

Alas, he was ecstatic in his heart. He thought that this kind of treasure would require a lot of sacrifices, but he didn't expect it to be just an official. What kind of thing is this, he immediately agreed, and said, "Do you want to be a civilian or a military officer?"

"Military duty."

uh-huh?

The county official was a little surprised at the military position. Seeing Li Chu's appearance and elegance, he must have come from a literary family, so why did he seek a military position instead?

"Are you doing it for yourself, or for someone else?"

"Of course it's me."

The county magistrate was a little displeased, even a little contemptuous, such a good man, why would he want to be a military officer.Everyone has his own aspirations, no matter what, as far as his military position is concerned, today's affairs have nothing to do with it. He should say: "The county captain, as a law enforcement officer, violated the law with his own body. After the trial tomorrow, he will be dismissed from his position.

And Li Chu in Rufen Town, who is loyal and righteous, can take on this role. Gu, appointed him as the new county captain of the county. "

After the county lord finished speaking, he was about to hug the stack of A4 papers.

Li Chu reached out to stop him and shook his head.

"What do you want?"

The county magistrate is puzzled, isn't he satisfied with the post of county lieutenant?Let Li Chu invite him back to the desk and sit down.

Then Li Chu counted out thirty sheets from the stack of A3 papers and put them on the desk. Guan'er smiled: "These are the ones that should be honored to the county lords."

"What, this is for me?"

The county lord was dumbfounded, this, this, this is how much, then look at the stacks on the tea table, and then look at the thirty or so sheets in front of him, this, this, this contrast is too great.

Even, he was a little annoyed.

The contrast is too great. I thought this stack was dedicated to myself, but in the end, hey, I also dismissed my current county lieutenant to him, which is simply deceiving too much.

The county lord felt that he was going to be humiliated, and when he was about to burst into anger, Li Chu held him down.

"My lord, I'm not interested in being a county lieutenant. What I want is a military position, someone who can handle soldiers."

Li Chu counted out another twenty sheets from the stack of A3 papers, put them on the desk, and pondered: "Considering this matter, it is a little troublesome for you to operate, I will add two more sheets for you." Ten are ready."

Then...give me more, add...add [-] more?
The county lord really wants to throw a cup of tea at him, who do you think you are, and you only add [-] more?
"Of course, if you think it's too little, then I'll have to find someone else, anyway, Yingchang is not far away. I don't need to say more about the preciousness of this paper."

"This opportunity to name the new paper and make it famous forever can only be given to others."

The face of the county official turned green in an instant, just like his green official robe.

"Promise, promise, can't I promise?"

The aura that had just gathered collapsed in an instant.

Although more than 60 sheets are a little less, they are precious. This is much better than the paper used to force the imperial confession. I really want Li Chu to leave and go to the Yingchang Mansion. Such a good thing, but every time he does something up.

Here, it's not just about the paper, the key is the naming right of the paper.

This is a good opportunity to pass on through the ages. If you don't use it yourself, you can also dedicate this naming right to your superiors. This is also a very good thing to be promoted.

It's just a military position, even if it is in charge of soldiers, what's the use, it still has to be controlled by us.

Li Chu picked up the water glass, took a sip of water, and waited for the words from the county lord.

"I don't know, what level of martial arts do you want?"

Li Chu put down his water glass, pondered for a while and said, "To the west, the bandit Wang Qing is making trouble. I wonder if the county lord intends to suppress the bandits?"

Bandits?

I... the county lord's is green again, and I almost couldn't help but throw my glass again.

He went to suppress the bandits only when he was mentally ill. Wang Qing's bandit army was so powerful that it spread over several military prefectures. They were still worried that Wang Qing would call over at any time, so they went to suppress the bandits in fear because of this?

Go and destroy Wang Qing, this is the birthday man hanged himself, do you think his life is too long?
It's very, very lucky that he didn't call, why are you going to provoke him?

The county official felt that it was a huge mistake to summon this person today, to help you find a military position, and to expect you to keep yourself safe and not add chaos to his rule.

I really wanted to refuse, and handed back the seventeen chapters of paper.

This hand, why is it stiff at this moment, this paper is so light just now, how can it be so heavy.

"As a military officer, you have a team, a capital, and a commander. What level do you want?"

Before coming to the county government, Li Chu had passed the system, customized consulting services, learned about the current division of the military system in the Northern Song Dynasty, and also knew some of the inside ways.

This county magistrate was too unfavorable, and he was moaning, and Li Chu didn't bother to wait any longer, so he directly stated his purpose.

"I want a command envoy. The army is a township soldier. With the power of the county lord, it shouldn't be difficult to get me a township commander, right?"

There are five capitals under the command, each with 100 people, and one commander has 500 people.

The county venerable didn't speak immediately, where he sat and thought about the solution seriously.Li Chu didn't ask for the Xiang, but for the township, which is easy to handle, he has the right to set up township soldiers, but what name should be used for this?

It's easy to talk about everything, but once you command, what if the higher-ups ask about it?
Li Chu sighed lightly, shook his head, and said, "Lord County Lord, I have received news that the bandits occupying Nanyang are currently mobilizing their troops, and there are signs of encroaching eastward."

"Ah, what, is Wang Qing calling?"

The magistrate panicked, and subconsciously prepared to pack his things, but was stopped by Li Chu again.

I saw Li Chu saying word by word: "We have detected signs of bandits moving eastward. In order to protect the people in the territory, the county lord will set up a township command from now on to recruit villagers to resist the bandits and protect the safety of the people in our territory."

Wonderful, wonderful!

The county venerable was quite embarrassed, he panicked just now, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was Li Chu who gave him the reason and conditions for setting up the village soldiers.

If Wang Qing really wanted to call, it was probably the county lord. It was estimated that Xiangcheng County would soon fall into the hands of the enemy.

Immediately, Li Chu counted twenty more chapters on the A3 blank paper and gave it to the county venerable.

"In the front, these seventeen cards, together with the previous two cards, are for the county lord alone. Now these twenty cards are for the county lord to manage up and down, and to operate my township command."

"Good good."

The county venerable is very rude to his subordinates, and it's just doing up and down, do you need to use such precious and precious paper? He can do it freely, but he has to spend some money.

But it's worth it, the batch of paper in front of me is worth thousands of dollars, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it.

That's a good deal?

Immediately, the county lord led Li Chu to the front hall.Wrote a document for the formation of the township soldiers, stamped it with a big seal, and prepared to submit it to the superior. At the same time, he wrote a letter of appointment for the township soldiers, recommending Li Chu as the commander of the township to be responsible for the recruitment and training of the township soldiers to fight against the enemy. The great seal of Shangzhi County was handed over to Li Chu.

"From now on, it will be Commander Li."

"Where is it, I will have to rely on the county lord in the future."

Immediately, Li Chu invited the magistrate to a nearby restaurant for a drink, and asked two girls to accompany him.

After eating and drinking for a while, Li Chu asked someone to leave.

At this time, it was already late in the morning.

If Axiu had purchased the ingredients, she should have gone back already.

Li Chu hired another carriage and drove quickly to Rufen Town. On the way, he met someone distributing leaflets, and Li Chu just said hello.

When I returned to Rufen Town and walked to the restaurant, there were already many merchants here.

They all came here curiously through the leaflets, and some of them were old customers from yesterday.

Li Chu wasn't here, and after yesterday's one-day teaching, the eldest cousin Wenru could only cook a few simple dishes, and she was not as good as Li Chu in terms of taste and cooking.

Wen Ru also knows how to be flexible. Although he can fry few dishes, he learned a special dish yesterday.

Braised pork!
That's right, it's braised pork. When Li Chu was not around, my eldest cousin Wenru followed Li Chu's method, chopped and fried a lot of braised pork and put it in a saucepan to simmer slowly.

It seems that the eldest cousin has to be well-educated.

After Li Chu came back, he praised the wit of his eldest cousin Wen Ru very much.

Immediately, this new day of restaurant business began...

……

In Jiangdian Town, an inspection department has been set up. There are two inspectors here, one in charge of literature and the other in charge of military affairs.

Military inspections can recruit soldiers, and inspection departments with larger positions can recruit 500 people.

Zhou Bin is the military inspector of Jiangdian Town, but he is the lowest-ranking type, and there are only 20 soldiers who can be used in his hands.

After breakfast, Zhou Bin reported to the Inspection Department, and then called fifteen soldiers to follow him to Rufen Town for inspection.When setting off, Zhou Bin also specially checked the armed equipment of each soldier, and after confirming that everyone was carrying a good guy, he immediately greeted them and went to Rufen Town.

Last night, Zhou Bin received an order from Lu Tidian's prison department...
