Chapter 25 Wu Tian is a traitor? Jin Mao is ashamed
On March 15th, the weather was clear and the weather was nice.
Jinmao was finally able to take time off from the busy affairs of the county and come to Jinyun Mountain to participate in the first launch of the wood press.
The reason why we were able to arrive so quickly was thanks to the warhorse sent by the Liu family. It was young and strong, much better than an old horse.
Jin Mao then returned the old horse to He Wei, which moved He Wei to tears.
In addition to the young and strong people from the side branches of the clan, the people who followed Jinmao this time also included Jinyang.
Originally, I didn't want to take Jin Yang with me, but this kid cried and made a fuss, and refused to leave Jin Mao's side no matter what, and almost followed him even to sleep.
Jin Mao had no choice but to let Jin Yang do what he wanted, but he also warned him sternly: "If I find you squatting in the corner of my bedroom again, never follow me again!"
In this way, Jin Yang led the horse, cleared the way, and competed with He Wei for everything along the way.
This made He Wei furious. When it came to flattery, he had met an opponent for the first time!
As for what Jin Mao once said about "my Zifang", He Wei was very clear that it was okay to just listen to it. If he really took it seriously, he would be like Jin Yang, forgotten by Jin Mao in some corner and would never be remembered.
Jinyun Mountain.
Jinmao had already told Liu Fang the working process and principle of the wood press, and now all that was lacking was practice.
Since pushing the huge stone to hit the pressing rod is a very strenuous task, the people who press the oil must be the strongest people from every family and tribe.
You don't need to look at Liu Fang and Pan Lin to know that the strong men are naturally among them.
Pan Lin has been feeling very depressed recently.
Everything went wrong for Jiao Jiao, including attacking the Yao ethnic group branch, farming, and eating.
But he was a prisoner, what could he do?
He had doubted countless times whether he had made a mistake.
If you don't do anything wrong, you will be a martyr.
So, Pan Lin, who was exhausted and had lost weight, took the initiative to take on the task of pressing oil.
This is a good job. Not only can he eat dry rice, but he can also eat meat with a little oil. He hasn't eaten meat for nearly a month.
Lunch.
Pan Lin carefully savored the tenderness of the fat, which was the leftovers he used to throw away without eating.
"Hey, idiot, I heard that the God Lord went to the county and became the county magistrate?"
These days, Pan Lin and Liu Fang have become very familiar with each other, probably because the nature of their work is similar.
"Acting county magistrate." Liu Fang squinted his eyes and tasted the meat.
Pan Lin was full of disdain: "An idiot is an idiot. As long as the Lord God is the county magistrate, if you want him to give up his position, humph! Dream on!"
Liu Fang was still intoxicated by the aroma of meat.
"I'm so stupid too!" Pan Lin walked away in annoyance: "Why would I be friends with a fool like you?"
Seeing He Wei and Jin Yang busying around in front of Jin Mao, Pan Lin was so envious.
"They are just some villains who took advantage of the situation. If I..."
He used to be such a proud man. Now he feels complicated, but he doesn't want to give in easily. He is just compromising in order to stay alive.
"Humph!"
Pan Lin stared at Jin Mao and said with hatred: "Don't die too early. If I make a comeback, I will not be merciful!"
The next moment, Pan Lin thought of something, turned around abruptly, and warned the younger brother following behind him: "You didn't hear anything just now!"
"If you dare to say anything, I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Ning Ye lowered his head, and his timid look made Pan Lin disgusted, but what could he do? Now this boy was the only one willing to follow Pan Lin.
Ning Ye has a broad frame and appears thin due to long-term malnutrition, but he is gifted and became one of the 300 elite members of the original Yao tribe at a young age.
He should have been someone Pan Lin valued, but his personality was unpleasant and he was very marginalized.
On the night when Jin Mao captured 300 Yao people alive in Lizhou, Ning Ye was the only one who did not eat, but in the end he pretended to have eaten and was captured.
At that time, he was probably the only one who knew Ning Ye’s inner thoughts.
And his purpose of approaching Pan Lin was for no other reason than today!
After arriving at Jinyun Mountain, Ning Ye discovered that Jin Mao was a greater figure than any other sage of the Yao ethnic group.
Jinmao built homes for the poor, provided food for the poor, and even taught them how to farm and support themselves.
Therefore, Ning Ye very much agreed with Bai Shi's point of view.
"Only God can stand shoulder to shoulder with the Lord of God!"
Jinmao is the living God!
Therefore, Ning Ye also became one of Jin Mao's believers, and Bai Shi was his idol.
Ning Ye could recite Bai Shi's deeds by heart.
Ning Ye is very smart, but he is young and has no one to teach him, so his behavior is a bit extreme, no, it's paranoid.
"Pan the thief is speaking ill of the Lord of God again!" Ning Ye narrowed his eyes as he watched Pan Linyuan go away. With his natural strength, he successfully became an oil refiner and one of the twenty-four.
This is an excellent opportunity to get close to Jinmao.
the other side.
After Jin Mao finished the inspection, he was about to hold a meeting to play a game of who is the traitor, but Wu Tian pulled him to a corner mysteriously.
"Congratulations, sir, on your promotion to county magistrate." Wu Tian bowed happily and said, "From now on, we have to call you county magistrate!"
"Mr. Wu, you are too polite." Jin Mao hurried forward to help Wu Tian bow down.
"Haha!" Wu Tian was even happier: "Mr. County Governor, you are indeed a trustworthy man who keeps his word!"
Jin Mao's expression changed, but he found it hard to accept in his heart: "Such a lovely old man, why did he become a traitor!"
Wu Tian didn't notice Jin Mao's expression and just kept bragging about his own achievements.
"You don't know, that day that person dared to say that he was sent by the county governor."
"I have such sharp eyes that I caught him on the spot! Our county lord has offended many people, so he has many spies. I forced him to tell me if he was a spy sent by Jiao Laogou."
The more Jinmao listened, the more he felt something was wrong. Why was it different from what he had imagined?
Wu Tian became even more proud when he saw Jin Mao's stunned expression, and boasted even louder.
"Guess what?"
"I beat that man so hard that he knelt down and begged for mercy, praising your wisdom and bravery."
"I then let him go and gave him a chance to prove his identity."
"Wow! I never thought this guy is not a spy."…
Wu Tian talked incessantly, and Jin Mao also figured out what happened.
Wu Tian deserves half the credit for this acting county magistrate!
It turned out that the county governor Tang Mao believed Wu Tian's words, so he must have been praised as rare in the sky and non-existent on earth, right?
Jin Mao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, yet he felt ashamed of his suspicion.
"Mr. Wu, please accept my greeting!" Jin Mao bowed deeply, feeling embarrassed.
"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing? What are you doing?" Wu Tian was at a loss, like a child who was praised, happy and shy, but he did not help and just accepted the gift.
Jin Mao felt relieved and didn't explain any further.
"Mr. Wu, if you have any difficulties, please tell me and I will help you solve them."
"Hey, what's the matter?" Wu Tian waved his hand: "Jinyun Mountain is getting better day by day under your management. I am very satisfied."
Jin Mao was very uncomfortable: "You can send your nephews and nephews to me and work with me."
"Hey, don't mention those brats!" Wu Tian waved his hands repeatedly: "They are all useless. If they follow you, sooner or later they will get into trouble and kill me!"
Wu Tian was very open-minded: "You might as well follow me. If something goes wrong, it's just a small one. I can still take care of it."
The more Wu Tian said this, the more uncomfortable Jin Mao felt.
At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed towards the two of them. Jin Mao thought it was a wild beast and was so scared that he was about to draw his sword.
Wu Tian's eyes were sharp, and he shouted loudly: "Ning Ye! What are you doing? Why don't you stop?"
Ning Ye was startled, stopped abruptly, and knelt awkwardly: "Lord God, I have something important to tell you!"
When he saw it was a person, Jin Mao awkwardly loosened his grip on the hilt of the sword.
"County Lord, Ning Ye is a boy from the Yao ethnic group." Wu Tian helped to speak up: "He is only 13 years old and looks like a calf. He is not a bad person, but no one teaches him."
Ning Ye didn't know the right time and interrupted directly: "Lord God, Pan the thief always says bad things about you behind your back, and today he said..."
"Mr. Wu is really good at judging people." Jin Mao interrupted with a smile: "Ning Ye, I will teach you the first lesson in life."
"No matter how bad Pan Lin is, he was once your leader and has done you a favor. If you don't agree with him, you can stay away from him, but you can't report him."
"What's the difference between what you do and Pan Lin saying bad things about me behind my back?"
Ning Ye buried his head in the dirt in shame.
Wu Tian chimed in again: "Why don't you thank the county lord?"
"Thank you, Lord God!"
Jin Mao looked at Ning Ye, then at Wu Tian, and came up with a good idea.
"Mr. Wu, I see that you like this child very much, and Ning Ye has no one to discipline him."
"How about this? Why don't you adopt Ning Ye as your adopted son so that you can discipline him? I'll be your witness."
"In the future, when Ning Ye becomes a talented person, I will bring him to my side to train him. This way, after you die, there will be someone to take care of the Wu family, right?"
Suddenly, Wu Tian was so moved that tears filled his eyes. He wanted to kneel down and salute, but was stopped by Jin Mao.
Wu Tian pressed Ning Ye's head and kowtowed to Jin Mao nine times: "Why don't you thank the county lord quickly!"
Ning Ye didn’t understand, but he felt very happy.
