The fifth more is delivered, begging for subscription.

Zhang Chao, a member of the inspection department, is a little free and unrestrained.

He rode to work every morning, but he was late and left early, and he didn't arrive until mid-noon, and then just after noon, he left early for work.

Anyway, he doesn't want to punch in, and second, he doesn't worship his boss, and no one can manage him in his small yamen's one-acre and three-thirds of land.

On the contrary, at his request, the workshop was not yet built, and his little yamen was soon well decorated.

The eight-character wall in front of the door was built, and the house was replaced with a full set of solid wood new furniture from Zhangjiagou Furniture Workshop, a new long case, and a high chair with a backrest.

There are spring and autumn chairs and benches underneath.

In the next room, there is also a hot pot, and even a new kitchen is built, with stoves, pots and bowls.

Every day at work, Zhang Chao sat in the backstage of the long case and had a morning meeting.

In fact, it was almost noon at that meeting, and he and Cheng Chumo listened to the reports of the three assistants who were doing business, and then listened to the specific task progress of the following dozen officials, and then Zhang Chao would comment a few words, find one or two words of praise, and then find a few words of criticism that was not pleasing to the eye, okay, the meeting would end in the morning.

At noon, Zhang Chao would ask the cook to cook some good dishes, and then have a working meal with a dozen or so officials and subordinates below, and occasionally add some food to the craftsmen and men working on the workshop site, and go to inspect one or two.

Chief, of course, it's the affairs of the consul general, specific affairs, naturally there are three people in charge of Wang Lushi, Liu Zhushu, and Zhao Zhao, as for Cheng Chumo's four, they are completely four Bodhisattvas, more unreliable than Zhang Chao, and they are completely used as the background at each morning meeting, and they are accompanied when Zhang Chao inspects the construction site, and those who don't know think they are Zhang Chao's four personal guards.

The workshop is being built little by little, but Zhang Chao is very leisurely.

After eating the free working meal at noon every day, I go to the construction site for a few laps and patrol in the name of the name, which is actually a walk to eat.

After eating and leaning on the kang, I left work early.

Zhang Chao said to his subordinates that he was going to inspect the production of raw materials, but in fact, he was going to do private work and went to Wubenfang to see the decoration of his new home.

The decoration over there is very fast, there is a lot of money thrown in, the craftsmen invited a lot, plus there are detailed construction design drawings, and even craftsmen with experience in Zhangjia decoration joined, so that the process is very fast, and it is estimated that it will be good before the year.

Occasionally, Zhang Chao will go to Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui's house to visit the house, because Zhang Chao took the initiative to change the stove for the two neighbors for free, so the relationship with the two families is quite familiar now.

I can often have afternoon tea or something at the two houses, and even have a good taste of the family, not only with Fang Xuanling's son Fang Zhizhi, Du Ruhui's son Du Gou is very familiar, and the two Guozixue students are now a little bit worshiping Zhang Chao as the eldest brother. is Fang Xuanling's very strong wife Lu and Du Ruhui's wife Mrs.

Liu, who are already familiar with Zhang Chao and have met for a long time.

The official eunuch family of the Tang Dynasty, if the relationship is good, will also let the wife come out to meet the guests, which is called the good of the family.

Zhang Chao's mouth is sweet and generous, and every time he comes to the door, he will definitely bring some gifts, not much expensive, but never empty-handed.

In addition, he called Fang Du his uncle and his wife his aunt, so Fang Lu and Du Liu also regarded Zhang Chao as a nephew, and sometimes even if Fang Du and the two were not at home, Zhang Chao would take the initiative to come out to greet him.

Although the Lu family is a jealous woman, she has a very good set of presiding over the family, not only Fang Xuanling is afraid of her, but Fang Yi sees his mother directly, and she is as honest as a mouse seeing a cat.

But when Zhang overtimed, he was very polite, and he was a little imposing.

The two ladies are not the kind of women who are greedy for money and take advantage of them, but Zhang Chao is indeed very open in both families, and he can have topics to talk about with Fang Qiao Du Ruhui, and occasionally play chess, and he can also play with Fang Zhizhi Du Gou, two fourteen or fifteen-year-old Guozi students, and even Du Ruhui's brother Du Chuke quickly became familiar with Zhang Chao.

Du Ruhui entered the Qin Palace, but he was very capable of becoming important to Li Shimin, and he held an important position in the Tiance Mansion from the four products, which is equivalent to the four leaders in the Tiance Mansion, second only to the Tiance General Li Shimin and Changshi and Sima.

The ancestors of the Du family were also the family of eunuchs, and his uncle even served as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry of the Sui Dynasty, and his father was also a local official in the state.

Du Ruhui, like Fang Xuanling, became famous as a teenager, and then became a county lieutenant at a very young age.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui's chess skills are very good, it seems that the scribes and officials in this year can play chess, and their chess skills are quite good.

Zhang Chao had also learned Go before, but unfortunately that skill was the level of playing backgammon with Go.

Therefore, after suffering many defeats in the hands of the two, Zhang Chao taught them to play backgammon.

As a result, you can't play backgammon, and for chess masters, backgammon is obviously too simple.

Today, Zhang Chao came to Fang Mansion early and came to Fang Xuanling to make an appointment.

"Still playing chess, Saburo is really courageous" "Repeated defeats, repeated defeats, morale cannot fall" Zhang Chao brought a new set of chess today, backgammon is not good, then change it.

Du Ruhui couldn't help but smile when he saw the chess box in Zhang Chao's hand.

He now often comes to Zhang Chao's house or Fang's house to visit the door, Fang Mou is decisive, and he seems to enjoy the feeling of abusing vegetables, not to mention that after abusing Zhang Chao, he can often have all kinds of Zhang family's delicacies to eat, all kinds of cooked food, pastries and snacks, which are very good.

Zhang Chao's chess box is painted with a chessboard of the Han realm of the Chu River, open the box, pour out the chess pieces inside, and when you open it, it is a chessboard.

Xiangqi is one of the ancient Chinese chess games, also known as Xiangxi, and the earliest chess pieces were only six black, six white and twelve chess pieces.

At the moment, there are twenty-eight chess pieces, and there are no cannons.

In order to win Fang Du, Zhang Chao directly added cannons to it, and it became the standard chess of later generations with 32 chess pieces.

He has already decided, if he can't win chess, then he will bring chess to challenge another day, if he can't win again, then next time he will bring military chess, flying chess, checkers, and if he doesn't win, then bring playing cards to fight the landlord.

There's always something that can beat them.

"Which of you is on" Zhang Chao directly put the chessboard on the kang table, and then chose the red son and put it on it.

Fang Xuanling stroked his beard, "The two of us won't be on it, let Zhizhi play with you first." ” looked down on people too much, Zhang Chao endured it.

"Ah, how come this chess piece still has two cannons" "Cannons, rock-throwing trucks, too."

Zhang Chao proudly set up the two cannons.

These two cannons are engraved next to the stone instead of the cannon next to the fire, because there is no such cannon yet, and the cannon next to the stone is interpreted as the same as the stone throwing car, anyway, the use of the cannon is to fight cattle across the mountain.

Zhang Chao made the first move, and before Fang Yizhi had set up the chess pieces, he came to a head-to-head start.

"Although only four cannons have been added, it can be changed from twenty-eight to thirty-two, especially this cannon can also attack from one to the other, which has indeed added countless changes.

Saburo, you changed this chess."

"Well, it turns out that chess is too simple, and in order to increase the difficulty, you can only add two chess pieces."

Zhang Chao was very forced.

Fang Xuanling is just hehe, a guy who plays chess as the first cannon, what can he do, at most it is just a three-board axe.

The first one, with two more cannons, Zhang Chao relied on himself to have already adapted, and used a tricky chess game to start, Fang Zhizhi's chess level is still good, but unfortunately he has never played this, not to mention that he has always played chess very steadily, but Zhang Chao used trickery to start the game, and soon the double cannon will kill him.

"Saburo is amazing."

Fang Zhizhi honestly admits defeat.

"San Lang did have a few hits in this game just now."

Fang Xuanling also gave thirty-two likes.

The son lost, of course Lao Tzu had to go into battle to save face.

Re-enactment.

Zhang Chao changed a chess path to start, but Fang Xuanling was much more stable than Xiaofang, steady and steady, the defense was impermeable, Zhang Chao jumped the horse, but he couldn't cross the river.

"San Lang, when I was discussing in the Qin Palace, the King of Qin also specially mentioned your workshop, Your Highness asked me to ask you, when will your two workshops be shipped?"

Zhang Chao pinched his chin and stared at Fang Xuanling's chess pieces, trying to find the flaws in them, and replied absentmindedly, "The workshop hasn't been built yet, and it's still early to ship." ” "It's not early, this morning from Shandong back to the military situation, His Royal Highness the King of Qi and Li Shiji, the general manager, in Shandong to conquer Liu Heimin, fought several big battles, annihilated a lot of enemies, and inflicted heavy losses on the enemy, but our army also had a lot of casualties.

King Qi and Li Shiji even went to Chang'an and asked for alcohol and white medicine to heal the wounded. ” Gao Kaidao recently borrowed tens of thousands of cavalry from the Turks, and collected some of the original Hebei rebels who fled north, united with Liu Wuzhou's old department Yuan Junzhang, attacked Daizhou, and killed Li Daen, the king of Dingxiang County, the governor of Daizhou in the imperial court, and the king of Lujiang and Li Yi, Wang Junkuo, Li Gaoqian, the general of the right Xiaowei, and Dugu Sheng, the young eunuch in the palace, resisted the enemy in Yanyun and fought fiercely.

The casualties were also heavy, and they also played one after another, asking the imperial court to pull out medicines. ” Zhang Chao stayed in Chang'an City every day, and he really didn't know that the battle was so fierce.

"I seem to have heard a few days ago that the imperial court sent an envoy to the Turks, preparing to marry them, why are the Turks so barbaric?"

"Because the Turks proposed that I marry the princess and relatives in the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty refused to agree, so the Turks borrowed troops to open the way to the south."

Du Ruhui said, "But these are actually some excuses, the real situation is that the Turks don't want my Tang Dynasty to dominate the world, so they deliberately find reasons to make trouble, so as to openly support Gao Kaidao, Yuan Junzhang and other rebels." ” "Both Shandong and Hebei can ask for medicine and ask you, the miracle doctor, to preside over the medical camp, if San Lang doesn't want to go to the battlefield for the New Year, then you'd better speed up the progress of the workshop and get alcohol and white medicine as soon as possible, otherwise" Zhang Chao pinched the cannon and was stunned there, damn it, this is really not a little comfortable.
