Chapter 114 The former prince (sixteen)
"Military division, the county lord has come to this county, should I pay a visit?"

The county magistrate of Fengwudu called his dearest military adviser to discuss.

This "visit" is not as simple as just handing over a post to the door. When he goes to visit the county magistrate, he must have something on hand, otherwise he will definitely offend others if he goes there empty-handed.

Moreover, the gift must not be cheap, it must be something of some value, otherwise the reason is the same as above, offending people, he, a seventh-rank county magistrate, cannot afford to offend a fifth-rank county magistrate.

But as a county magistrate, he really doesn't have any good things in his hands. The county is so poor that he can't even get a few grains. If he wants to be greedy, there is nowhere to be greedy. Killed people because of their own greed.

For so many years in power, he has not been greedy for a penny.

Seeing that things in the county lord's mansion are almost done, servants have been bought, things have been bought, and several pieces of land have been arranged for planting. Whether to visit or not, I must decide quickly.

Military advisor: "According to my subordinates, the county magistrate, you must go this trip."

The county magistrate looked distressed: "Why did the military commander say that?"

He really has no money, didn't he see that he can only hire one military adviser?The county magistrate of other people's family has more than a dozen staff members alone, but he doesn't have a single staff member, only this one-and-a-half taels of silver as a military adviser.

"My lord, you can think about where the county lord came from, this Fengwudu."

The county magistrate was reminded, and long-lost memories came to mind. That was the place where the demon king on the border stayed. He was shocked: "My lord, but I have no money!"

The corners of the military counselor's mouth twitched slightly. Of course he knew that the county magistrate was out of money. The military counselor's eyes paused on the patches on the county magistrate's clothes and moved away without leaving a trace: "Your Excellency, the county magistrate, pay a visit to the Duanyang County Lord. You don't need to prepare a heavy gift."

"The Duanyang county master doesn't like extravagance. He likes to draw in the study room on weekdays. The magistrate, you just need to prepare a few pieces of high-quality paper."

The county magistrate swallowed: "But... this is not very good. When people visit higher-level officials, they always send gold inlaid with jade, so I will send a few pieces of tissue paper?"

The military adviser shook his fan: "Master County Magistrate, you are wrong. A few days ago, a carpenter just produced a novel kind of paper? That paper is very self-willed and writes smoothly, but it is not available in the Southern Dynasties today. It's no worse than those gold inlaid jade."

"The father of the Duanyang County Lord is an imperial merchant in the Southern Dynasty. I have never seen anything good. The gift for the Duanyang County Lord is of course a good gift if it is novelty. There is no shortage of gold and jade."

The county magistrate also reacted, clapped his hands and smiled: "Yes, sir, you are so smart, the father of Duanyang County Lord is an imperial merchant, I haven't seen anything good, I should give you something new."

As soon as Luo Zhi went out, she bumped into a group of people. The leader was an old man with a gray beard, wearing a blue official robe, with a very conspicuous bright red patch on his clothes, shining brightly in the sun.

"Fengwudu county magistrate Liu Cheng pays a visit to the county magistrate."

Among the seventh-rank official uniforms, in Wufengdu, there was indeed only Fengwudu county magistrate.

"What is the magistrate coming here for?"

The county magistrate was terrified again and again: "Don't dare to be the county lord, and the county lord calls Liu Chengcheng well. The county lord came from afar, and Liu Cheng came here to congratulate the county lord on entering the county lord's mansion."

He pushed a wooden box in front of Luo Zhi: "This is a congratulatory gift for you, the county magistrate. It's not worth much. It's just a novelty. I hope the magistrate will like it."

Song Yunjin glanced at Luo Zhi, and silently borrowed the box for her.

Seeing that Luo Zhi accepted the gift, Liu Cheng was happy: "The county lord has come to Fengwudu, Fengwudu is really full of splendor, you see, even the river in front of the gate has been rising and rising these days. "

He said happily: "In the future, the people's harvest will be better." He can also have some spare money to buy some pork belly to eat.

Luo Zhi was silent for a moment, and politely said: "Master Liu really loves the people like a son, and it's uncomfortable to stand at the door, do you want to come in and sit?"

"No, no, there's nothing uncomfortable." He just thought about how much tax he could have, and he could have a few more taels of silver. Liu Cheng waved his hand: "It's better not to bother the county master. I haven't dealt with today's chores." good."

Since yesterday, the river at Wufengdu began to rise slowly. He sent someone to investigate the situation upstream, and found that there was another river channel upstream, but he didn't see it with his own eyes, so he couldn't feel at ease.

He just thought about going to see what happened today so that he could make some plans.

"Then Master Liu, please go."

Song Yunjin looked at Luo Zhi: "Can Chunqiu take this thing in?"

"Go ahead, don't go out."

Song Yunjin was a little disappointed, he looked very much like going out for a walk with her.

"Let's go out in the afternoon."

Song Yunjin's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth again: "Okay."

Luo Zhi went back to the study: "Let's see what it is first, and prepare a return gift for the county magistrate."

Song Yunjin opened it obediently, and was a little surprised when she saw a roll of white and smooth tissue paper.

Luo Zhi was a little surprised, and picked it up immediately: "It feels good, and it feels convenient to write on. This kind of paper is not available in the market now. It seems that Fengwudu is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."

She directly pulled out a piece of paper, picked up a pen and tried to write: "It's really good." Much better than those on the market.

"Speaking of which, how much money do we have in the account?"

Song Yunjin remembered this very clearly. He was doing most of the money disbursements, and immediately replied: "There are still 1000 taels of silver. Apart from adding some daily necessities to the county lord's mansion, the money spent is not much. .”

The price of Fengwudu is not high, but the products are also lacking. Some things, such as bed quilts, he asks people to buy them from other places.

Although he knew Luo Zhi didn't care about this, he still wanted her to sleep more comfortably.

"The monthly fixed expenditure in the mansion is almost 50 taels of silver. If there are no accidents, the remaining money can be used for a long time."

Luo Zhi was thoughtful: "Come here."

Song Yunjin walked to Luo Zhi's side obediently, a little strange: "What's wrong?"

"A few days ago, Steward Tan asked me to find someone to get a letter. It just arrived yesterday. You can give this to him for me."

some days ago?
Isn't that maybe just getting to know Butler Tan?

Luo Zhi took out a letter and put it in Song Yunjin's hand.

The envelope is yellowish paper, judging by the thickness in your hand, there is probably only a thin page inside, and it looks very old.

Although Song Yunjin was confused, she still followed the instructions and went to find Tan Tong.

Tan Tong looked at the letter with complicated eyes, and when Song Yunjin was about to turn around, he called out to stop him.

"Young Master Song, have you really forgotten what happened in the past?"
