Lin Chen also checked Wu Yong's physique.
[Wu Yong, Constitution: Ordinary]
Obviously, this function was only used to check the physical fitness of the opponent. It could not show the other abilities of the opponent.
"Sir, are you alright?"
Seeing Lin Chen staring at him, Wu Yong came to the side, his eyes filled with concern.
Lin Chen came back to his senses and looked at Wu Yong, who was panting slightly. He sighed in his heart.
Sixty years old, this age should be enjoying life.
Wu Yong had no children and was loyal to their Lin family all his life. It could also be said that he had done his best.
After Lu Jiang settled down and he found new talents, he could let Wu Yong rest.
However, he still had to trouble the old man during this period of time.
"I've rested for a while. I feel much better.”
"Uncle Wu, I'll have to trouble you to draw up a copy of the current situation in Lujiang County for me.”
"Including taxes, rations, accounts, soldiers, official positions, and the distribution of properties. The more detailed, the better.”
"Hmm?"
Lin Chen was suddenly concerned about this. The old man's eyes were filled with disbelief as he looked over in confusion.
Feeling Wu Yong's gaze, Lin Chen remembered that he still had a persona of 'ignorant, incompetent, and idle.' He explained slightly,
"After this incident, I've also understood a lot. Although this position was obtained for me by Father, since I've become Lujiang's prefect, I have to do something, right?”
"Alright, Daren has grown up. I'll do it now.”
Wu Yong was a little excited, and his voice was trembling. As he spoke, he bowed to Lin Chen and slowly left.
After watching Wu Yong leave, Lin Chen prepared to go to the study to collect some useful information. A man dressed in armor and dressed like a soldier came in.
[Second Ding, Constitution: Ordinary]
He checked the other party's physique, which surprised Lin Chen. This soldier had a good figure and looked like he had been trained. He did not expect him to be ordinary.
Now, it seemed that the starting point of this evaluation standard was still very high. Being able to reach Rank-1 was already considered not bad.
Of course, the information was still insufficient. He had not seen what a Tier 1 was like, so it was not easy to make a judgment at the moment.
The soldier stood still and felt Lin Chen's slightly fixed gaze. He thought that there was something wrong with him and lowered his head slightly to take a look.
"Tell me, what is it?"
After regaining his senses, Lin Chen waved his hand. It was indeed a little strange to look at him like this.
The soldier came back to his senses and bowed.
"Reporting to Milord, Mr. Qiao Songqiao has brought his daughter Qiao Ying to thank Milord for saving his life.”
"A life-saving grace?"
Lin Chen paused for a moment. With his predecessor's behavior, how could he think of saving someone?
The soldier explained,
"Sir, when you were patrolling the streets previously, the long pole was broken by a horse and collapsed. The woman you saved midway was Qiao Song's daughter, Qiao Ying.”
The soldier reminded Lin Chen and he immediately understood.
He recalled that when the flagpole fell, he had indeed pulled a stunned person beside him.
However, the situation was urgent at that time. He didn't even pay attention to whether it was a man or a woman. In the end, the other party seemed to have pressed down on him, and then he fainted.
This was something that had happened after transmigrating. He did not expect it to be a girl.
"Do you know this Qiao Song?"
Lin Chen had addressed him as Mr. Qiao just now. Lin Chen had to be careful. In this era, if he was not that person, he would not casually address the other party as Mr. Qiao.
The soldier was slightly suspicious, but when he thought of Lin Chen's usual attitude, he explained,
"Mr. Qiao is knowledgeable and has a good reputation in Yangzhou. You can be considered a celebrity in Lujiang.”
"Originally, Lord Lin, which is also your father, wanted to recruit Mr. Qiao as the main registrar, but he rejected it.”
Lin Chen's eyes lit up again. Celebrity?
"Are you sure he's famous and capable?”
When he heard the word 'scholar', Lin Chen's mind started to spin. He was just lamenting that he didn't have any talent under him when this talent came knocking on his door.
However, when he heard that Lin Zhen had also recruited him and was rejected, he guessed that he was also a difficult person to deal with. He subconsciously touched his smooth chin and was deep in thought.
"Sir, don't you know all this?”
The soldier looked at Lin Chen in confusion. Qiao Song's identity was no secret to the entire Lujiang River and even the entire Yangzhou.
The soldier's words pulled Lin Chen back from his thoughts. He waved his hand and explained,
"I knocked my head earlier and can't remember a lot of things. Just tell me.”
The soldier understood and answered truthfully,
"This subordinate only heard about it from others. I don't know the exact ability, but it is said that Mister Qiao is a good friend of several people in the court, such as Lord Situ Wang Yun, Left Lieutenant General Cai Yong and Cai Zhonglang.”
As soon as the two names were mentioned, Lin Chen's eyes lit up.
From the looks of it, he was really a genius.
"Shall we go and take a look?"
Lin Chen waved his hand and let the soldier lead the way to the back hall.
back hall
It could also be said to be the front hall of the backyard.
The front yard was used for office work, and behind it was the prefect's private space.
Compared to the front yard, the backyard was almost three times the size of the front yard. There were many courtyards, and it was spacious and luxurious.
The people who came to visit and receive the guests were all in the back hall.
When Lin Chen came over, the surrounding stoves were already burning.
One of them was beside Lin Chen, about two bodies away.
This position could ensure that Lin Chen could provide heating. When the banquet was held, the maid would kneel beside him and it would be convenient to operate.
The other one was not far from the two banquet tables on the left.
That place was prepared for Qiao Song and Qiao Ying.
A few maids were already sitting beside the stove. While ensuring that the stove was heating up, they began to warm the wine. Later, the wine would be served and refilled by the maids.
These were all instructed by Lin Chen. Since he wanted them to work for him, he naturally had to be sincere.
The stove was lit up, and the temperature of the entire space gradually warmed up.
Lin Chen sat at the head of the table, facing the door. Sitting on the ground was somewhat uncomfortable.
