Everyone was dubious when they heard this, but they were full of expectations for this wonderful prospect.

The Su family grows the vegetable plots in front and behind their house by themselves, so they have already honed the basic skills of growing vegetables and know how to do it.

Qiu Wuhen spent another two days checking the temperature of the greenhouse, making sure that the temperature was not too high or too low. He reminded them of the precautions. After two days of operation, he was on the right track, and he was relieved.

Qiu Wuhen had been away from the Inspection Department for several days. After settling things at home, he called Qian Jinzhi, five students, and three detectives, and set out again for the Inspection Department.

This time everyone came back to rest, ate what was needed, and drank what was needed. After a few days of rest, everyone felt much better.

Qiu Wuhen is the boss of the Inspection Department, so of course there is no problem. Anyway, the Inspection Department doesn't have much to do.

They spent half a day returning to the Inspection Department and continued to live a leisurely life. The busiest people every day were the five students, who practiced eight-part essays every day, and Qiu Wuhen wrote an article every day, and then asked Linghu Ding to

Explain, and then imitate writing. Of course, these articles are related to the academician's topic, and are a combination of excellent articles from later generations since the Tang and Song Dynasties. Especially the eight-legged essay of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and of course some important treatises from previous generations.

They are all important articles. Use them as long as they are useful.

After a month passed, Qiu Wuhen finally received the letter of appointment from the Ministry of Personnel.

This time it was not sent to him directly by the official department, but by the chief clerk of the yamen, who brought several detectives to read it in person. Seeing Qiu Wuhen, the chief clerk was very enthusiastic and said happily: "Congratulations, Mr. Qiu.

Gao Sheng!"

Then he handed the official document and letter of appointment to Qiu Wuhen.

Qiu Wuhen took it and looked at it, and actually gave him the title of school secretary. In the Ming Dynasty, civil and military officials had casual officers. This level of casual officials only enjoyed benefits and had no substance. In other words, Qiu Wuhen's actual

His position is still that of the Inspection Department, but his level has been raised. He has entered the ninth rank and has been given the title of School Secretary. He can enjoy the salary and related benefits of the ninth rank.

Qiu Wuhen was quite happy. After all, he had only been here for a month and his butt was not even hot yet! Anyway, he had already been promoted, which was his goal. But he was just a casual official, so he didn't even bother to come back.

I went home to tell my family the news. I just wrote a letter and entrusted the chief clerk to give it to my family when I returned home to report the good news and make them happy.

The spring rain was pouring down, and it had been raining for several days. Qiu Wuhen did not go out for a walk, and stayed at the residence of the Inspection Department, studying the eight-part essay with Linghu Ding and others every day. He now has some knowledge of how to write the eight-part essay.

Understood. After all, he had printed countless model essays for the five students to copy. He was extremely bored. He also listened to Linghu Ding explain the beauty of this model essay to them, and thus learned some ways of writing eight-legged essays.

While listening to the explanation, he hardly spoke, looking calm and calm, just looking at them. At the same time, while listening to the explanation, he also understood some writing methods of eight-legged essays, and there was another

The important teaching content is arithmetic. Because the medicine gourd in his mind does not allow him to use the printed eight-part essay to make money. His arithmetic is his own knowledge, so it can be used to make money.

Arithmetic, of course, has no direct effect on writing eight-part essays, but it can be an excuse for him to earn tuition. Therefore, arithmetic questions must be done every day. After the model essay is published every day, a lot of arithmetic questions must be asked.

They have almost no arithmetic foundation, so in the past few months, they have not yet understood the four operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, let alone complex mathematical content such as solving equations with positive and negative numbers. Qiu Wuhen is too lazy to teach them

Something deeper is just an excuse anyway.

This morning, Qiu Wuhen gave them a lot of math problems to do. At the same time, he gave them a sample eight-part essay, asking them to study the intersecting process and change their minds.

Just then, Tusi Balu came

As soon as Qiu Wuhen saw his expression, he knew something was wrong, so he asked several students to go to Linghu Ding's room to study arithmetic and essays. Only Qiu Wuhen and Balu were left talking.

As usual, Chuncan acted as the tea maid and made tea for the two of them before exiting.

Qiu Wuhen said: "Mr. Balu seems to be in a bad mood. What happened?"

Balu lowered his voice and said, "Not only has something happened, but something big has happened."

"What's the big deal?"

Balu looked at the door and saw the patter of rain outside. He lowered his voice and leaned in front of Qiu Wuhen and said: "There is something wrong with the beautiful girl we selected for the emperor. She disappeared when she came to our area.

.”

Qiu Wuhen already knew that Qianshan Village would select a few girls every year and send them to the palace to serve as show girls, which is equivalent to the meaning of marriage. Of course, these show girls are only to be palace maids, which is an important palace entry activity.

, I didn’t expect that something went wrong with the beautiful lady who entered the palace this time. Qiu Wuhen couldn’t help but take a breath of cold air. Although this was not the responsibility of his inspection department, even if the beautiful lady was lost, his inspection department would not be directly responsible.

relationship. But at least there is no luster on his face. After all, the problems that occurred on this three-thirds of an acre of land are not good-looking on his face.

So he asked anxiously: "What's going on?"

"I don't know the details. I just got the news. When we walked to Luoshuo Village, it suddenly rained heavily. They went to Luosuo Village to take shelter from the rain. When they came out after taking shelter from the rain, they found that six show girls who participated in the draft were missing.

The Tu general who was in charge of escorting was so anxious that he immediately led his people to search everywhere. However, they searched everywhere and found no trace of them. It was really hard to see the dead or alive, because these beautiful women were carefully selected.

, the list has been reported to the Yamen, and the Yamen will only send it to the palace after approval. What if we don’t match the number? The court will think that we deliberately deceived the court, and that will be troublesome."

Qiu Wuhen thought for a moment and said, "Master Balu came to me, does he want me to help investigate this case?"

"Yes, the inspector is a first-class expert in solving cases. The last case was solved very well. He caught all the wizards and cooks around me who were trying to harm the village, which relieved my heart.

I have always been deeply impressed by the problem! I may have to ask you, Mr. Inspector, to take action this time."

Qiu Wuhen smiled and said noncommittally: "If it's a murder or something like that, I might be able to help. But I don't think I'll be of much use in finding someone. After all, you still need to mobilize the masses to find someone.

, look where people are hiding?"

Hearing Qiu Wuhen's excuse, Balu became a little anxious. He quickly stood up and bowed to the end, saying: "Master Inspector, we two brothers have been getting along for a long time. Brother, I have encountered such a big trouble this time. You must do it."

Please help me get through this difficult time!"

"Is it possible that you are responsible for this draft?"

"That's not true, but what happened to these beautiful girls happened through me, Qianshan. I, Qianshan, must be held somewhat responsible. Even if the court doesn't cause trouble for me, the big chieftain will also cause trouble for me.

.”

Each chieftain in this Tuzhai is in charge of a different place, which is a bit like a large number of princes, and they often undermine each other. And this Balu is just one of these chieftains, big and small. If he falls, the other chieftains will be more likely to fall.

It was most likely that he was adding insult to injury in order to grab territory instead of helping him, so he anxiously asked Qiu Wuhen for help in finding the missing show girls.

Qiu Wuhen saw that the other party was so anxious and that he had nothing to do. So he nodded and said: "Okay, let me help you go and have a look. Let me first say that it may not be effective if I go. Since I take action, I will do my best to help you find it."

.But it is up to man to make plans and to make things happen, so this must be said first.”

"Of course, thank you brother."

In desperation, he even mentioned the title of brother.

Qiu Wuhen asked Linghu Ding to supervise them to continue to do arithmetic problems and study several essays he had written. He asked the deputy chief to be responsible for the ordinary daily affairs of the inspection department. Then he took Captain Ke and three agents, as well as the translator

Qian Jinzhi set out with Balu's team to go to Luoshuo Village.

Under the leadership of Qiu Wuhen these days, Qian Jinzhi finally opened up the purchasing channels for medicinal materials and purchased a lot of local specialty medicinal materials. He was very happy. But this was just the chieftain's purchase that was not conscientious. The specific purchase

She had to run by herself. Therefore, once she had the opportunity to visit various villages, she would never let it go and take this opportunity to follow, not to mention she was also a translator.

The mountain road leading to Luoshuo Village is difficult to walk, and even the chieftain himself has to walk, holding an oil-paper umbrella. Qiu Wuhen is also wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat, walking along the mountain road. This Luoshuo Village is about 50 meters away from their inspection department.

It was half a day's journey, and the mountain road was not easy to walk, so I often slipped and fell. Fortunately, Qian Jinzhi, who was quite good at martial arts, was helping Qiu Wuhen and could hold him up when he was about to fall, so he would not fall.

Covered in mud.

When the three police officers arrived at Luoshuo Village, their clothes were already wet. Qiu Wuhen had specially wrapped clean clothes in oilcloth paper, which could be replaced.

In the afternoon, they finally arrived at Luoshuozhai, a small village with only a dozen households. The village leader had already received the news and came to greet them at the entrance of the village and led them to his house. He was responsible for escorting the show girls to Beijing for the event.

The official in Tuba who was drafted was wandering around like a headless chicken. The official in Tuba was older than Balu, so of course he would not come out to greet him. On the contrary, after seeing Balu, he became angry with him.

He scolded Balu in dialect, saying that his poor management of the place led to the rampant thieves in the area. The thieves must have robbed these six beautiful girls. He asked Balu to find them as soon as possible, otherwise he would not be able to eat and walk around.

.

In front of Tubazhong, he was not submissive. After all, he was the leader of one party. He was also very angry, but he did not dare to quarrel with the other party. He just agreed to try his best to find it. The two met very unhappy. Tubazhong got angry.
