Is This Kid Calling Me Uneducated Again?
Guo Biao looked at Ye Jin deeply.
He did not hide the admiration in his eyes at all.
When he first saw this ridiculously young county magistrate, Guo Biao thought that he was just a young scholar who had just entered the officialdom.
Because she had an inexplicable sense of familiarity with him, she quickly tried to smooth things over after her irritable father got into a fight with him.
Later, when she saw that he was an honest official and that the dignified ruler of a county only had a maidservant to serve him, she had an even better impression of him.
Although he was a little lazy.
However, he was a young man, so it was not a big deal for him to have some small problems.
With a little nurturing, he could still become a promising talent.
However, after hearing Ye Jin's theory about commanding subordinates, Guo Biao looked at him in a new light.
Although his theory was not unusual.
Any mature leader would know how to lure his subordinates with benefits and threaten them with power.
However, knowing and doing were two completely different things.
Moreover, these theories were all truths that only old foxes who had been in the officialdom for a long time understood. Now, they were actually explained so thoroughly by a hothead, and it did not feel strange.
This was a strange thing in itself.
Especially his understanding of the system, it was extremely thorough.
Therefore, Guo Biao was more and more satisfied with Ye Jin.
Just like Ye Jin's character 'Meiyu', this kid was a piece of unpolished jade.
As long as he was patient, he would definitely become a great talent of the country.
However...
The questions just now were child's play. He had to make it more difficult for him.
Guo Biao thought to himself.
At this moment, the sun was about to set on the hillside.
The multicolored clouds in the sky were especially beautiful.
Although it was April or May, the temperature in Shangyuan County was still a little hot.
Old Guo ate a few skewers of meat in a row and suddenly felt his body heat up.
He saw a large jar on the table beside him and pointed at it.""Girl, is there wine in this jar?!”
Only then did Chan Chan's small head pop out from behind Ye Jin. She looked at Old Guo with some fear and replied,"It's glutinous rice (sweet wine)."
Old Guo immediately beamed with joy and continued,"Hurry up and pour a bowl for this old man. I'm dying of thirst.”
Chan Chan's mouth curled up slightly as she muttered, You don't have hands?"
However, even though she was unwilling, she still walked over and poured a big bowl for Old Guo.
He poured a bowl for Ye Jin and Guo Biao before returning to Ye Jin's back and eating the meat skewers in small bites.
Old Guo did not care about Chan Chan's rudeness. He picked up the porcelain bowl and drank the wine in it.
Not only was it sweet and sour, but it was also cold and salivating.
Old Guo even drank a piece of ice shard.
He was curious and picked up the jar to take a look. Other than the fermented rice, there was also some ice shards.
Old Guo's expression turned ugly again.
He threw the jar on the table and looked at Ye Jin with a mocking gaze,""This old master thought that he was really an honest official. Who knew that he was also a dog official who was greedy for pleasure.”
Ye Jin was somewhat immune to his bad attitude.
However, was this old man seriously ill?
She had just eaten Yours Truly's meat skewers and drank Yours Truly's fermented glutinous rice, and now she was scolding people?!
Wasn't this like picking up a bowl to eat and putting it down to curse?!
However, Yours Truly was a normal person, so he would not argue with a patient.
I'll endure it.
I'll f * cking endure it.
However, he could endure it, but Chan Chan could not.
Although Chan Chan was a little afraid of Old Guo, she couldn't stand Old Guo's slander of her young master.
Therefore, he retorted angrily," You're so unreasonable, old man. How did my young master offend you? How is he a corrupt official?"!”
"If your young master is not a corrupt official, then where did these ice cubes come from?!”Old Guo pointed at the jar and questioned.
He originally thought that Ye Jin was just a little lazy.
If he was lazy, so be it. As long as he could manage the place.
But now, he knew that he was actually a hypocritical and cunning thief.
Humph!
Yingtian Prefecture was located in the Jiangnan area, and the winter was extremely short. If it wasn't a wealthy family, they wouldn't be able to build an ice cellar to store ice during winter.
Even if there were conditions, it was impossible to use ice in April and May.
The weather was not hot yet, so if they used the ice they had stored in winter, what would happen in August and September, the hottest months?!
Therefore, he dared to use ice at this time, which meant that he had nothing to fear. There was a large amount of ice stored in the ice cellar that could be used.
A Rank-7 county magistrate with a salary of only 90 doku, did he have the financial resources to build a huge ice cellar?!
So if he wasn't a corrupt official, then what was he?
Old Guo felt that he had already seen through Ye Jin, and he was very disgusted in his heart.
However, he actually did not have any killing intent towards Ye Jin. Instead, he was angry that Ye Jin did not fight for it.
However, what Chan Chan said next stunned Old Guo.
He only heard Chan Chan straighten her neck and say,"Don't slander me. These ice cubes were made by my young master, not bought with money.”
Old Guo was instantly dumbfounded.
This was the second time he had heard of the Arabian Nights today.
After a few seconds, he blurted out,"Stop talking nonsense. Is your young master an immortal from the heavens who can cast spells to conjure ice?! Or could he turn stone into gold and water into ice?! Why are you spouting nonsense?”
Seeing that he did not believe her, Chan Chan said anxiously,"It's true…What I said is true. My young master is very powerful.”
Ye Jin sighed slightly.
He looked at Old Guo and said helplessly," Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it hasn't really happened. Saltpeter has been used to make ice since ancient times. What's so strange about it?"! As long as you read more and read well, you will realize that all the things that you thought were unimaginable before are ordinary.”
Old Guo was slightly stunned.
Making ice with saltpeter?
Could ice really be created?!
That was not right.
Wait a minute.
Is this kid scolding me for being uneducated again?!
Thinking of this, Old Guo's expression turned ugly again.
