Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

When the sky was getting dark, Ruiwen brought out the sauce brought from the capital. The big jar of sauce attracted many people's attention. The generals who didn't smell the wine tried to smell the wine from the air one by one, but they couldn't smell it, which made them feel very strange. Could it be that their noses are out of order? ?In other words, the cloth on the jar is too thick, blocking the aroma of the wine.

Rui Wen put down the jar of sauce and asked someone to set up the cleared wild boar and goat, and then went back to get brushes and oil for brushing.Rui Wen turned to leave, and walked around the jar, and some people put their noses on the red cloth of the jar and smelled it. They only smelled a spicy smell, but there was no aroma of wine. Could it be that the wine has gone bad?The people around the jar shook their heads with some regret.When someone saw Ruiwen coming back, the people around the jar immediately dispersed without leaving too far.

Ruiwen was not in the action of the gang of soldiers, and put away the things they brought back one by one. After a while, Wang Xiujin and Li Sushan came together. They put salt on the fire, and then they went to brush oil and salt on the wild boar.Afterwards, the hunted rabbits were also skewered, Wang Xiujin and Ruiwen squatted on the ground, one was in charge of oiling, and the other was in charge of spreading salt.Wang Xiujin jokingly said that if he ran out of money someday, he could set up a roadside stall to sell roasted pork skewers.

The soldiers who had been watching Wang Xiujin looked at Wang Xiujin for a long time, but they didn't realize it. When Wang Xiujin arrived on the first day, they noticed that he was a delicate young man. They are exquisite, but they are no different from rough men in doing things, and they even take the initiative to grill meat. They know that these hunted meats are everyone's extra meal at night.A young man from a rich family dressed in a short girdle and cooked for a group of rough men. The soldiers had indescribably complicated hearts.

Wang Xiujin didn't care so much. Although he invited everyone to eat, he didn't really do much. The food was brought back by everyone's efforts. Although he also paid for some, what he could do was actually Sprinkle salt and sauce on the food.

I don’t know who among the soldiers mentioned Wang Xiujin, and then mentioned the oil workshop. Everyone’s eyes on Wang Xiujin changed. Because of Wang Xiujin’s existence, they no longer worried about losing arms and legs on the battlefield, and could only wait for death. , They still have a place to work, and they can earn a wage on their own.Wang Xiujin, who was making sauce by the fire, couldn't feel the changes in everyone's eyes. After wiping off his sweat, Wang Xiujin asked Li Sushan to cut the meat with a knife to make the meat more tasty.

Wang Xiujin and Li Sushan were so busy that they were sweating non-stop. After the soldiers recovered their senses, they all stepped forward to help.After a while, the training ground was full of fragrance, and the generals in the barracks also surrounded them.Someone told Mr. Li Er briefly that this imperial businessman is really unique. He has never seen any influential literati doing rough work.The second master Li smiled, "Too little experience."

The second master Li is most annoyed by the kind of people who think they are superior to others. No matter whether the person who just spoke means it or not, he doesn't like to listen to it.Second Master Li felt that there was nothing wrong with Wang Xiujin's behavior, and sometimes he even felt ashamed when he thought about what Wang Xiujin had done for the soldiers, even the Li family did not do as much as Wang Xiujin.

The big guys work together, the scene is very lively, and it saves a lot of time. A group of people are yelling for this, use that, accompanied by fragrance, and the sound of smacking, the atmosphere on the training ground is full of enthusiasm, After a while, the generals, led by Master Li Er, also mixed into the lively crowd.

All the people present were men, so they had no scruples. When the meat was cooked, they would cut the meat with a knife. One piece was removed, and the other leg was removed. The whole pig was not divided in a while, and it was eaten while eating. Feeling that it would be better if there was wine.While everyone was eating, Rui Wen was carrying a large plate of fried belly, followed by two people, one with fat sausage in his hand, and the other with fried lamb waist.

After the wild boar was dismantled, it was a whole sheep. Wang Xiujin divided a piece of mutton, cut a little with a knife, and gave the rest to Li Sushan. He knew how edible Li Sushan was.After the rabbit stand was set on fire, Wang Xiujin sat around the fire and roasted vegetables. A group of strong men watched Wang Xiujin roast vegetables, all of them with good-natured smiles. No one would say sarcasm. respect.Wang Xiujin didn't care about what other people thought, even at will, and even distributed the roasted vegetables to Li Sushan. Eating meat alone would make him feel tired, but eating it with vegetables could make him eat more. However, with Li Sushan's strength , Even if there is no green vegetables, I will not eat less.

I don’t know who, I was in a beautiful mood after eating, and I sang a folk song. When one person started, someone followed, with a very strong local accent, what was the content of the song, people who came from the capital couldn’t understand, However, the joy of the singer can be heard from the singing.That night the commotion lasted until very late, and Li Sushan and Wang Xiujin led the people out of the barracks and moved into a new home.

The next day, Wang Xiujin didn't wake up until it was three poles in the sun, and he kept yawning like that.Stretching himself to make himself more awake, after Ruiwen brought the face wash, he whispered to the young master that Qiucheng government sent someone over, but was sent away by young master Li.Wang Xiujin nodded, and couldn't help yawning again. He guessed that the people at the gate of the yamen would come, but he didn't expect it would be delayed until today. He thought he would come after him after he settled down.It seems that his reputation as an imperial merchant is still a bit small.

However, Wang Xiujin had forgotten where he was staying. It can be said that civil and military officials were at odds with each other. When he entered the city, he went straight to the barracks, making the civil officials think that he looked down on their civil officials. If they didn't remember Mr. Wang's sharp mouth, they would be afraid It's to hand over the booklet and insinuate Wang Xiujin.Of course, even if Wang Xiujin knew about it, he wouldn't care. In his opinion, all the literati in ancient times were fake and lofty, and they were really trying to gain fame. Anyway, he couldn't get along with literati, and he preferred to get along with straight-hearted soldiers.

After lunch, someone from the government office came over again. Knowing that Wang Xiujin was at the residence at this time, he asked for help to pass on a message. He was sent by the magistrate to send a greeting card.

Wang Xiujin didn't embarrass the visitor, so he accepted the greeting post, and saw the time on the post, Wang Xiujin was overjoyed. If I remember correctly, the date on the greeting post is today, but the hour on it has already passed.The person who wrote the post, and the person who sent the post are also frizzy enough.

The person who sent the post was relieved when he saw that Wang Xiujin had accepted the greeting post. He could see the smile on his face and the look in his eyes after the other party opened the post. The person who sent the post had a very bad feeling. At the mouth, the person who sent the post cursed the person who wrote the post in his heart, Nima, and he didn't know the time to change it.

Wang Xiujin opened his mouth and said the date and time on the post, and saw the face of the visitor change. Wang Xiujin thought it was funny, "I'm sorry to bother sending the post back, and I don't need to send the greeting post. I have time today. If the magistrate has something to do, Just come here."

The visitor repeatedly said words of apology, then took his leave and left. When he returned to the government office, he repeated Wang Xiujin's original words, and by the way, told about the greeting post. The person who wrote the greeting post was the magistrate's brother-in-law, the magistrate Naturally, he would not say that my brother-in-law was wrong, so he scolded the person who sent the post, blaming him for not checking if there was any problem before sending it.The person who sent the post was almost out of breath and internally injured. Is it that he can browse through the posts at will?

Of course, Wang Xiujin didn't know what happened in the government office. Even if he knew, he wouldn't stand up for the wronged. But the place where he was standing was not his three-acre land, so it was better to keep a low profile.

The speed of the magistrate's coming is not slow at all. When the feudal clan was cut down, there were rumors of building workshops. The magistrate had already made up his mind. If the person who came this time was led by the fourth prince, he would pretend to be a grandson. It's someone else, so the magistrate planned to take some of them, because there is so little oil and water here, it's hard for him to get some money.However, he never expected that this time it was the imperial merchant Wang Xiujin who brought people here. If it was just the name of the imperial merchant, the magistrate would not be afraid, but he would be afraid of Wang Xiujin's father. The magistrate was in a dilemma between being greedy or not.The prefect's brother-in-law came up with an idea, first to find out Wang Xiujin's tone, merchants value profit, even with the word "Huang", they also want to make money, he has inquired about the ways of building workshops in other places, among which there are many profitable.

Seeing the magistrate, Wang Xiujin was overjoyed, no matter what the other party said, Wang Xiujin would always respond as if practicing Tai Chi, who made the three big characters written on the magistrate's head gleaming...do nothing.As an official of one party, being accused of "non-action" is not as good as a corrupt official. At least a corrupt official will engage in economics and make some achievements in order to get money.Wang Xiujin shook his head after sending the magistrate away without any leaks, "Can you please ask General Li to find out what kind of person this magistrate is? I don't want to throw money here without even hearing the sound."

Li Sushan nodded without thinking, then went to the military camp, and soon brought back a message that the magistrate was not very capable, and most of the affairs were handled by his brother-in-law.

Wang Xiujin raised his eyebrows, a person who relied on his brother-in-law to climb to the prefect position, is he capable?Or too lucky?Or is there any backing behind it?No matter which one it is, you have to meet the prefect's brother-in-law first, and see what kind of introduction is on top of his head.

"The prefect is the husband of the maidservant next to the eldest princess." Li Sushan threw another message, "The brother-in-law next to the prefect is not the younger brother of the maidservant."

"It's really interesting, heh."
