Farmhouse is so old

After a bustling day, the money in the family is like water, rushing away.Afterwards, Zhou Qing and Tang Qing calculated that they spent at least a thousand taels of silver.

"I really can't help spending this money. I spent so much in just one day. If the water table was open for three days, wouldn't it cost more." Zhou Qing held the account book in one hand and calculated in the other, feeling sorry for the money.

Tang Qing looked at the calculated account books and thought that it was okay. The biggest ones were vegetables and meat, and the rest were scattered seafood. It was thanks to the extensive investment of his family that he was able to consume such a small amount of money.

If other companies run this kind of water banquet, the cost will go up two or three times.

"It's only a thousand taels of silver. The banknotes at home will become moldy after a long time. It's better to use them more." To be honest, Tang Qing feels that the banknotes at home are stored in boxes under the bed now, which is very unsafe.

What if there was a heavy rain that day, or what to do if Tang Yuan played under the bed and tore it up as paper? After thinking about it, I still feel that it is really worth spending money. At least I have enjoyed it. If it is really destroyed, then what should I do? But there is no reason to cry.

Tang Yuan, who was playing with toys at the side, suddenly felt an ominous premonition, and seeing his father looked at him strangely, he made up his mind to stay away from these two unreliable fathers. Flutter, flutter, go to the yard to play.

"Don't try to call my attention." Zhou Qing sounded the alarm when he heard Tang Qing's words, and guarded against Tang Qing with a vigilant look.

He has seen Tang Qing spend money lavishly before countless times. If he hadn't been holding back some money, how could his family have such savings now? Even more heartache.

The money in his hands is less than one-tenth of what he spends, and now he has to ask for some money, won't his conscience hurt?

"Okay, okay, I won't spend your life-saving money, but you don't regret it in the future." To be honest, Tang Qing still looks down on the money in Zhou Qing's hands.

Zhou Qing rolled his eyes: "I only regret it if I give it to you!"

Song Chengyun and Liu Yuancong will go to Beijing to work after the spring, so they can still celebrate the New Year at home. Tang Qing called them to the study for an in-depth conversation.

Overtly and secretly, they gave them advice on the emperor's plan. Neither of them was an idiot, so they naturally understood the meaning of Tang Qing's words.

"We just need to do our own job well, and ignore everything else." Song Chengyun reacted one step faster than Liu Yuancong, and immediately replied to Tang Qing.

Even Tang Qing could know such secret news, and it was not difficult for Song Chengyun to guess that the person behind Tang Qing was the emperor. Since he was on Tang Qing's boat, he had to go all the way to the end.With the emperor as his hole card, he can let go of his hands and feet in the officialdom in the future, so why not do it.

Although Liu Yuancong was also very smart, he was still a little bit worse than Song Chengyun in terms of vision. After Song Chengyun answered for a while, he finally figured it out.No wonder Song Chengyun can be the champion, he is indeed not as good as others.

"Anyway, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. You two just need to do it freely. If you have any difficulties, just tell me." Tang Qing has the trump card of the emperor behind him, so he is naturally fearless. If the momentum of the aristocratic family is suppressed and the court maintains a balance, everyone's life will be improved in the future, and there will be no shortage of fame and fortune.

What Song Chengyun and Liu Yuancong have to do now is the knife in the emperor's hand, let the people in the court know that the knife is hurting people, but they can't let them know who is holding the knife.Therefore, it is necessary to cut the mess quickly, and expand the power of their side before they have time to react.

Even if others react by then, the matter is a foregone conclusion.

"Okay, we know how to do it." Liu Yuancong's eyes showed excitement, and he couldn't wait.Others might be terrified of such things, but they are not.

They were born civilians and had nothing to do with the aristocratic family. Even the fairest imperial examinations seemed a bit powerless under the control of the aristocratic family these years.There are tens of thousands of poor students in the world, but they can only pass the exam. Are they not working hard enough?Or are they not talented enough?

It was not because of the interests of the aristocratic family that a good imperial examination was turned into a mess. If the emperor hadn't interfered with it this time, it would be delusional for them to be admitted to Juren.

For these thousands of poor students, for the common people in the world, and for themselves, he is willing to make this knife.Because this is the fastest way to get a shortcut, if they don't want to make progress, they will either choose to join the ranks of the family, or they can only be low-level officials.

May I ask which one does not want to worship the prime minister, which one does not want to make a difference in the officialdom, which one does not want to be famous in history, if he does not make this knife, waiting for them is to climb step by step.It takes dozens or even twenty years to take an imperial examination. How long does it take to climb up in the officialdom?Time waits for me.

After Tang Qing's advice, Song Chengyun and Liu Yuancong suddenly realized why they could stand out from the crowd of students because of Tang Qing's blessing.Speaking of which, it was all thanks to Tang Qing that they could have what they are today, without him, the two of them would be nothing.

"Work hard, don't disappoint the expectations of the higher authorities." Tang Qing patted the shoulders of both of them heavily, and then pointed to the roof.Since everyone was on the same boat, Tang Qing had nothing to hide, and seeing how eager they were, Tang Qing looked forward to it, not knowing how high they could climb in the end.

The two met immediately and nodded tacitly.With Tang Qing's support behind them and the emperor's hole card, their confidence suddenly rose. Instead of making them feel scared, it aroused their fighting spirit.

There was still a little time before the Chinese New Year, and the two of them were not idle. They met relatives and friends, and people who came to visit from all directions, and of course they did not miss to inquire about official affairs overtly and secretly.

Others did not become suspicious, but explained the official affairs to them in detail. It is inevitable that they would be a little nervous when they were officials for the first time. It is understandable to want to know more about official affairs. Naturally, there will be a lot of people explaining to them.

Of course, Zhifu Lu is the brightest among them. He likes to listen to gossip and is very eloquent. He also wants to curry favor with Song Chengyun and Liu Yuancong. Pulled out.In the end, there was really no time to talk, so I didn't hesitate to tell them all about how many concubines my family married as a joke.

Tang Qing smiled knowingly after understanding, Lu Zhifu is still so stupid and cute, he didn't know it when he was a springboard for himself, and now he is a pioneer for Song Chengyun and Liu Yuancong, it seems that he is very qualified as a stepping stone.

In fact, Prefect Lu is not stupid, he just has a little short-sightedness, he can't see or think of farther things, he likes things in front of him more than those far away things.

For example, he didn't think it was a big deal for Tang Qing to become Lord Sir, because no matter how powerful Tang Qing was, he still developed in this small Wenshui Town, and his status was the same as that of the county magistrate. To put it bluntly, he felt that Tang Qing had no status and power .But he didn't think that although Tang Qing didn't leave Wenshui Town, it didn't mean Tang Qing didn't develop outside!

Tang Qing is a lord now, and when he left Wenshui Town, he was still a lord, and his status was not as good as his, so he would sell him three points of face no matter what.Looking back at Prefect Lu himself, he is nothing without Wenshui Town, and his prefect rights are limited to Wenshui Town only.So Tang Qing thought he was stupid and cute.

However, there is a person like Lu Zhifu who is not very bright, and he can save a lot of trouble. He can know what he wants to know without trying his best, but he is very eloquent, and he can chat with him to relieve fatigue when he is bored.It can be seen how important it is for anyone to have a skill.

During this period of time, he often followed Song Chengyun and the others to get along with Lu Zhifu a lot, and Tang Qing gradually found that he liked this stupid and cute Lu Zhifu.

"My lord, being able to come here with two great talents has made my place flourish. It is a great honor for Sansheng to get to know the three of you. I will be transferred to another place in the future. Telling other colleagues will definitely impress them. Envious."

Tang Qing happened to have nothing to do today, so he followed Song Chengyun and Liu Yuancong to meet the magistrate Lu. Seeing that the first time they met, he would praise him again and again, which made Tang Qing blush every time he saw him, and couldn't bear to bully him.

But he is too good at talking, he will praise you first, and then beg for nothing to stick to him, so that you don't know whether to hate him or like him.

The meaning of the last sentence of Prefect Lu is to say: Now we are so good with the three of you, we can be regarded as a family with you, and I will tell others like this when I go to other places in the future.The implication is to remind Tang Qing and the three of them, don't forget to give him a hand when they become prosperous in the future, he is the one who will tell others about their relationship everywhere, even if you don't pull me, others will pull me because of your face of.

Tang Qing and Liu Yuancong were also very helpless, so they could only spread their hands and said, "We don't discuss other things today, let's listen to the show first."

Recently, the prefect Lu's belly is about to be drained by them. Tang Qing suggested not to be too anxious, but to slow down gradually, so as not to let people see heresy, and to relax occasionally, so Lu The magistrate asked them to watch a play today, and they came without saying a word.

Prefect Lu invited them not to listen to the show, but to curry favor, but Tang Qing and the others pretended to be confused just not to show their attitude. Depressed, take me with you when you play!

To be honest, Prefect Lu felt a little regretful that he hadn't flattered Tang Qing sooner, otherwise he would definitely be with them now.Who told me to be stupid at the time, thinking that Tang Qing didn't have much ability, and now he has changed hands to subsidize a few students, and they will be the top picks in the first test, and their future is brighter than the magistrate himself.

Prefect Lu regretted it in his heart, and now he will be transferred to another place soon. He doesn't know what the new place is like, and he doesn't know those high-ranking officials. The only hope is the two champions and Tanhua in front of him. Coax them well, if they go to some poor villages, maybe they will be able to transfer themselves to a better place.
