Chen Mu, the general flag of Qingyuan City, who only entered Qingyuan City once in half a year, was introduced to Qingyuan City four times three days after overwhelming the miners.

There was no exception every time. He was scolded by Shangguan who was dissatisfied with his actions. He was quarreled but had no substantial punishment. He was tired of pain or itch and made Chen Mu exhausted. In three days, he brought Qingyuan Guards from commanders to Qianhu, Qingcheng. All of them knew enough officers of all sizes. Everyone knew that the chief banner of Chen Mu under the command of Qianhu, Qingcheng.

As for his famous reason, it is because he handled different methods of suppressing miners. The problem he had originally solved by killing randomly, he extorted ten taels of silver from the tax collector to provide pensions for the casualties and wounded military households in the Qingyuanxia Hundred Houses. Although the matter was handled better in the end, Chen Mu's unconventional treatment methods were consistently called "disaster" by senior military officers in the garrison.

It is difficult to have a universal method in the world. I want everyone to be satisfied with it too much, and the final result is mostly unsatisfactory to everyone.

He was reprimanded by the garrison in Qingyuan City again. Chen Mu walked listlessly back to the newly built courtyard beside Anyuan Post. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Bai Yuanjie standing in the yard with a smile and looking at him, saying, "Is there a lot of complaints?"

"What else can it be?" Wei Balang went to tie the horses up, and Chen Mu spread his hands helplessly, scooped a scoop of cold white drinks with exhausted face. Then he wiped the corner of his mouth and said, "These officials all have the same meaning. When encountering civil war, they will directly suppress them. The miner will kill them. Then he will dispose of the next one and transport them back to the garrison station. All the officials will be promoted, as if there is no problem in handling this way!"

Chen Mu shook his head one after another, as if he had suffered so much grievance, which made Bai Yuanjie laugh, and then said, "Okay, don't be wronged. You do things well. This is what all the officials in the garrison know about it. They are all smart. Who can't understand this? Is it good for the officers of the garrison? Their rebukes are nothing more than just a sense of protection and fear of things. I really can't see that you still have the ability to lobbyists."

Chen Mu's actions in the mine not only surprised the generals of the ward station, but even Bai Yuanjie was surprised. What surprised him was not that Chen Mu could do nothing but that Chen Mu had never thought of killing someone.

Doing things like Zhang Yongshou is the true nature of the military officers in the garrison. Even if the miners did not rebel, the flag army would force them to rebel. The heads are both merits and silver. Who wouldn't do this?

"Although it's thankless to work, Bai thinks you're doing it right and very well." Bai Yuanjie wanted to continue saying something, but when she said that, she asked Chen Mu: "Tell me, I don't usually see you go to Qianhu Yamen to walk around. Today I will send someone to come to Bai. Is it necessary that something is wrong. Tell me, do you want Bai to go to Qingyuanxia for you to talk to you?"

Qingyuan Gorge?

Chen Mu was stunned for a moment before he realized that Bai Yuanjie was referring to his offending Zhang Yongshou, but then he didn't think that was a big deal and waved his hand and smiled: "If Chen had already gone to Qianhu's office for this matter, how could he dare to bother Qianhu from here in person? Is his subordinates want to ask, Qianhu knows Tan Kaifu, the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi?"

Chen Mu refers to the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi Tan Lun.

Bai Yuanjie narrowed her eyes and heard Chen Mu mention Tan Lun's official position and name, which was originally slightly loose, and he also became serious, saying: "I met a few years ago in Fujian, but now in Zhaoqing, I don't know if I can speak. What are you doing?"

Chen Mu was overjoyed when he heard that Bai Yuanjie did know Tan Lun, although he was only one-time encounter. He opened his hand and asked Bai Yuanjie to wait for a while. He turned around and took out a wooden box in front of Bai Yuanjie. He handed it to him and said, "Shenhu, please see this thing. I want to borrow the hands of Qianhu and offer it to the Governor's Office."

"What is this?" Chen Mu took out the monocular telescope polished by Guan Yuangu under his command. Bai Yuanjie held it in his hand and looked left and right, stretching and pulling it away, but he couldn't figure it out. He had to look at Chen Mu, and then heard him say, "This thing is called a telescope. It was made by accident. I asked a craftsman to use it. If you want to use it like this, please see thousands of households. Although it is difficult to see through things, you can see a clue if you have a slight enemy of twenty or thirty miles."

Chen Mu demonstrated the use of the telescope in front of Bai Yuanjie, and then handed it over, and saw Bai Yuanjie looking at the distant mountains in front of the telescope.

However, Chen Mu shook his head in his heart. The reason was that the effectiveness of this telescope disappointed Chen Mu. The three lenses could indeed make the imaging stand upright, but perhaps because the hand-polished lenses were not smooth enough, with some scratches on them, the image blur ten miles away could not meet Chen Mu's expectations.

But this is enough, and there is no need to be as clear as your eyes. As long as you can see the enemy's rough deployment across ten miles and expect the enemy to be the first, the telescope can already achieve Chen Mu's goal.

As for the future, if you need to further develop this in detail, whether it is directly made into molding or recruiting a glass maker to buy some special utensils to polish it, it is possible to consider it. However, Chen Mu probably won’t be the turn of doing this afterwards. Since he decided to send it out, the future structure will definitely not only have things that are not technically available, but will be popular among the Ming generals from all over the country in less than a few years.

Bai Yuanjie stood in the yard with a telescope and looked around, then stretched her neck and tiptoed toward the Qianhu Institute of Qingcheng. After looking for a while, she reluctantly put it down, pursed her lips and thought for a moment, sat back and asked Chen Mu, "This strange thing, you want to use Bai's hand to present it to the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, why? Why is Bai, and why is the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi?"

"Qianhu has great kindness to me. Heiling battlefield saves me and blocks Zhang Yongshou from robbing my head. If there is no Qianhu, how could Chen be today? Even my stupid brother, reckless, asked me to give Qianhu ten taels of silver to Qianhu, but my subordinates thought Qianhu was not silver." Chen Mu pointed to the telescope and smiled, and then said seriously: "Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, I heard that the court was going to summon him and General Qi to guard the Hulu to Jizhen. Hu horses came and went like the wind. If there is such a material, it can also make the nine-sided official troops less casualties--a thing that benefits the country, the people and selfish things. Chen wants to do."

"It is beneficial to the country and the people, and also the selfish? Ha, Bai agreed to this matter, but there is another thing." Bai Yuanjie was amused by Chen Mu's great ambition to benefit the country and the people on the small object of the telescope. He knocked on the wooden box twice, and then said to Chen Mu: "Since this is what you did, do another one, no, do two more. Bai likes to count me very much. The Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi don't have to worry, but there is someone you send out now to be more selfish."

"who?"

"The Guangdong General Yu Zhifu, who was impeached and removed from office last year, is there. Even if the court decides the matter and sends him on the road, it doesn't matter; the Japanese pirates in Guangdong have been in trouble in recent years. Last year, Bai went to Shaozhou to recruit soldiers and heard that Li Yayuan's rebellion was gradually becoming more powerful, and General Yu would probably have to rise again at that time." Bai Yuanjie raised two points to the wooden box and said, "It is the best time to offer it to him at this time."

Yu Zhifu refers to Yu Dayou, who is dominating the southeast. Chen Mu's eyes lit up, but then he said with a bitter face: "Qianhu, this thing cannot be made. Two pieces of crystals cost more than 30 taels. I asked someone to buy five pieces from Guangcheng and make this one!"

"So expensive?" Bai Yuanjie played with the unpretentious telescope and looked at Chen Mu with fun, "Chen Erlang, you are very courageous!"

Note: Chief - from Feng Menglong's "Ancient and Modern Tanjiao" in the Ming Dynasty, in which the people called the general surname Wei Soluo as Chief Luo.
