Chapter 32 The Tsundere Emperor and His Turtle Eunuch

Xu Taifu stroked his beard, pretended to think for a moment, and said: "It is recorded in the file that the servant of the household department was greedy for thousands of taels of money, confiscating tens of thousands of acres of good farmland in the north of the sky, and buying dozens of shops in the capital. Oh, this is simply What a joke!"

The torches lit on the city wall outline Xu Taifu's vigorous body, and his withered but powerful voice is closely tied to everyone's heartstrings: "The old minister only said one thing, Chu State has a large population, but less land, and in recent years, trade with neighboring countries has become more and more serious." Sheng, there is a folk rumor that "one side of the land, half of the shops", let alone Qiongbei to Yicang, even the most prosperous imperial capital to the remote Yicang, there is no ten thousand mu of fertile land at all, and... the environment in Qiongbei has always been harsh, when natural disasters and man-made disasters occur If it happened, he is stupid, wanting to covet this shabby place where not a single blade of grass grows?"

The face of the old minister next to him was a little ugly. What Xu Taifu analyzed was reasonable. Chu State is close to the sea and has water, so the trade is very convenient, and there are rows of shops on the streets. Even so, isn't it a little bit...

"Teacher Xu, the last general respects you as an old man in the palace, but don't mess around too much. The environment in Qiongbei is harsh, but the vast land is a great place for grazing and planting farms! Besides, even if the records are wrong, he is greedy." How can you get away with more greed and less?" Meng Huaiyuan doesn't like to argue with these well-educated old guys, but it doesn't mean he is easy to fool!

Hearing the words, Taifu Xu bent his body, supported the wall and sighed: "If he is greedy, let him be greedy. General Meng, why are you yelling at the old minister? The old minister is already half buried in the loess. You are yelling at me with such a loud voice. In case I die, will it be your fault?"

'Pfft' I don't know who gave an untimely laugh, Meng Huaiyuan's neck and ears were flushed with anger, it was clear that this old guy was arguing with him, he only said a few words, and now he is still relying on himself!I really don't know what to say!

Li Yi moved the knife in his hand to signal Chu Rui to be quiet, and dare to laugh when he is about to die!

But Li Yi didn't know that it wasn't Meng Huaiyuan that Chu Rui was smiling at all, it was Taifu Xu who Chu Rui was laughing at, and the fake beard that was sticking to his mouth almost fell off just as he was speaking.

"Hey, I said General Meng, don't be too aggressive, what about young people, sit down and have a cup of tea and talk about it. Why are you so angry?"

Meng Huaiyuan's hand holding the halberd creaked: "Is this something you can talk about after sitting down and drinking a cup of tea?"

"Hey, General Meng, you can put away that weapon. If the old minister's arms and legs are touched, he will fall apart." Xu Taifu raised his sleeve and covered his eyes, as if he was caught by the sharp weapon. Flashed there, then sighed and said: "Since General Meng doesn't want to talk about Tian Mu, then the old minister will come and talk to you about the shop..."

Seeing this, Chu Zhao's dark phoenix eyes suddenly flashed a hint of surprise. Taifu Xu stood at an extremely tricky angle. From Meng Huaiyuan's perspective, he could only see his body, but his face was covered with moonlight. It was vague, so Meng Huaiyuan didn't notice Taifu Xu's little action just now, but Chu Zhao's position was exactly the opposite of Meng Huaiyuan's, so he knew that Taifu Xu was not dazzled by the weapon just now, but was about to lose him Put on the fake beard!

He is not Mrs. Xu at all!

But the people here who don't know why are still entangled in the fields and shops.

"Tell me!" Meng Huaiyuan is a man with a brain, but he is too impulsive in his actions. When the bloodiness of the battlefield is brought to the government, he is a stunned young man who can only act on his own will. In addition, he is eager to convict He Yunqing, and now he is in chaos. Don't know the pins.

"Teacher Xu" made a dark smile in the corner where no one was around. He glanced at it inadvertently, but saw Chu Zhao staring at him with bright eyes like moonlight. , My heart sank, but fortunately, I quickly recovered, chuckled, turned around and said slowly to everyone: "I think everyone understands the truth of being an official and not doing business, although Chu's maritime trade has developed in the past few years. It’s not bad, but farming is the foundation, and merchants are the bottom, and he is a servant of the household department who has read poetry and books, so why would he do something that would demean himself?”

Meng Huaiyuan sneered: "I don't blame you for living in the secluded pavilion for a long time, let the future tell you, now trade development has become the mainstream of silver and wealth circulation, the money you can make is probably not what you and I can foresee, he occupies such a good seat , can you release the oil channel?"

Hearing this, the old officials who came with Xu Taifu were also a little shaken. No matter in terms of position or motivation, the fact that He Yunqing did this was very appropriate.

But 'Master Xu' laughed loudly: "Since that's the case, the old minister has one last question to ask General Meng."

Meng Huaiyuan crossed his hands in front of his chest, raised his eyebrows and said, "You ask."

"Since he is already greedy for thousands of taels of silver, why doesn't he use the money to directly circulate trade, instead, he takes risks to buy shops. What is the intention of General Meng?" After the words of 'Teacher Xu', he stepped out of the shadows.

Meng Huaiyuan watched the thin figure walk out, but was shocked: "What's going on with you!"
