The fertile water of farming does not flow to outsiders' fields

When the dull sound of going downstairs came from outside the door, Xue Yinsong was in an indescribably good mood. Although he didn't know what the relationship between this He family and the He family in Qinchuan City was, the monopoly forces formed by gangs Absolutely within the scope of his boycott.

It's not that monopoly is not good, the so-called would rather be a chicken mouth than a queen, even if his newly opened millet shop has joined the club, it can only be regarded as an accomplice of the monopoly power.

What is the accomplice?The accomplice is just following behind to get some leftovers, and he has to bear a bad name. When the accident happened, he was the victim who helped the big boss back. In Xue Yinsong's opinion, even if he wanted to monopolize, he had to come.

A boy outside the door said timidly with a wooden tray, "I'll clean it up."

Xue Yinsong beckoned him to come over, took out a penny and said, "There is a Xuejia rice shop in the second house in Changqiao Lane, you can go to the shop assistant and ask him to bring the food box."

The young man shrank his hands behind his back and dared not take the money: "I can't leave the store...the shopkeeper saw that he was going to fire me."

"Hi," Xue Yinsong walked over and closed the door of the box, and said easily, "When someone comes, I'll just say that it's fine for the two of us to stay inside and not open the door. You can go back quickly, and you can come back in a quarter of an hour. "

The young man looked at the shiny copper coin, swallowed and said, "This is the second floor, I have to go through the gate if I want to go out, the shopkeeper will see it."

Xue Yinsong stretched his head to look outside, because the space of the ancient building is relatively high, even though it is the second floor, it is equivalent to the third floor, so it is impossible to jump out of the window, so he stuffed the penny into his hand: "Mr. At the intersection of Bridge Lane, there is an old lady who sells candied haws, go and buy me a bunch, and help me call a guy in the shop."

The boy was taken aback for a moment, then took the money and went downstairs.

Seeing him running away from the window, Xue Yinsong felt relieved and began to pack the leftovers.Just now everyone was busy talking nonsense, this dish has not been touched at all, especially the roast chicken and hoof, it is so perfect that it can be sold for a second time.

After a while, the big guy came up, and he was a little surprised to see Xue Yinsong still sitting inside: "Is this seat still not removed? Where is the guy who went upstairs just now? Damn boy, I'm looking for death."

Xue Yinsong said: "I asked him to buy things for me. I want to pack a few dishes here." In ancient times, packing was also possible, but the packing utensils had to be prepared by the customer. The big guy walked in and looked around. Enviously said: "Barely didn't move much."

Xue Yinsong looked at his envious eyes, and said with a smile: "This dish is too much, and I can't finish it. If you don't mind, just take this bowl of fried pork with pickled vegetables and shredded bamboo shoots."

The guys in the store usually eat leftovers from customers, but now they know that this bowl of dishes has never been touched, but the guy replied with a little regret: "My mother likes to eat bamboo shoots the most, but the guest officer doesn't want to eat bamboo shoots." For the dishes, we have to wait until the shopkeeper and the kitchen have finished picking them out, and by then I am afraid that this bowl of dishes will be gone."

Xue Yinsong thought for a while and said, "What's the matter, I'll send someone to your house."

The big man was very moved, and was afraid of other troubles, so he hesitated for a while and replied: "I dare not trouble the guest officer." Xue Yinsong smiled, and said no nonsense: "Clean up the dishes first, and don't move the dishes first. .”

The little boy came quickly with a food box, and he was overjoyed when he saw such a big table of dishes: "Shopkeeper, we have a lucky day today. Look at the big bowl I specially brought to serve the dishes."

Fortunately, it was in a private room. Otherwise, if someone heard such embarrassing words, they would think that his family was not full. Xue Yinsong quickly ordered: "These are untouched dishes, don't put them in, just put these clean ones on it." .”

The young man said: "Shopkeeper, these things have also been moved."

Xue Yinsong chuckled: "I did that. Fortunately, my eyesight and hands messed up a few dishes, otherwise we wouldn't be able to add another meal tonight."

The little boy nodded with a smile on his face, and quickly loaded the dishes.

Probably the corner wheat played a role. Gong Er stood outside the shop early in the morning, and ran errands to deliver the wheat. When he was free, he helped clean the shop. When he was there, he was within five meters of the shop. All clean.

Xue Yinsong was very satisfied, and felt that this guy was right in his calculations, not only winking but also diligent.Just when he felt like he was a boss, another piece of good news came, that his female cat had a cub.

The female cat came over cautiously with her green eyes wide open. Xue Yinsong stroked its fur and could clearly feel the slightly protruding belly. The little man smiled and said, "Don't worry, shopkeeper, this cat will give birth soon." gone."

Xue Yinsong thinks about it and thinks that the time is terrible. The enemy who obviously beats up as soon as they meet can now co-produce a litter of kittens. It seems that sexual desire is really an instinct of the body, which cannot be controlled even by reason.

Now that the task of giving birth to cats is completed, the other two irrelevant cats will naturally be sent away. Xue Yinsong thought that pregnant women should be served with delicious food, so he went to the market in a good mood to buy eel bones for cooking.

The rice field eel smelled very bloody, and this cooking made the whole backyard smell of eel. The little Xiucai covered his nose and stood in the open space of the backyard and asked loudly: "What are you cooking in the kitchen? Strange smell."

Xue Yinsong said with a smile: "Eel bones are for the cat. Our cat has finally had cubs and needs a lot of nourishment."

Of course, Xiao Xiucai couldn't understand why eel bones could be mended, so he could only frown and ask, "Do you have to eat like this every day?"

"It smells bad, doesn't it?" Xue Yinsong thought about it: "Why don't you go out for a walk, and you haven't been to that poetry club for several days?"

Only then did the little scholar jump up and exclaim in surprise: "Oh, I said I would ask Brother Fu back, but I completely forgot these two days. Do you think I can do it today?"

Xue Yinsong indifferently stirred the mushy cat rice in his hand: "I can do it."

The little scholar changed into a clean long gown: "The weather is fine today, let's sit in the backyard. You move a table and chairs in the backyard, and I'll go ask Brother Fu."

Seeing that he ran away in a hurry without preparing anything, Xue Yinsong sighed and fed the cat first, then boiled the water, and then asked the staff to wash the tea sets and move the tables and chairs.

The tea set at home was just a set I bought temporarily when I first came to the town. A few green bamboos were randomly painted on the brown rough porcelain pot. Xue Yinsong washed it with water and put it on the table. A few small snacks are plated.

The little scholar came back after a while, followed by three people: "Brother Xue, have you boiled the water yet?"

Xue Yinsong smiled and said: "It's burning, you're in a hurry and I forgot to tell you to bring some tea, or you sit down first, and I'll go buy it right away." There was no tea when someone was invited to the house, and the little scholar blushed : "I'll go, I'll go."

Next to him, Fu Binglin took out a small tube of tea from his sleeve and said with a smile: "Brother Yu got some new tea. Although it is not a new tea, it tastes very good. I just brought it to you to taste today."

The little scholar took it with a sense of relief, and hurriedly introduced several people to Xue Yinsong. Except for Fu Binglin who had met the leader, the other two met for the first time.

These two are very well-known, one is Jia Chengbo, a former classmate of Fu Binglin, who is now an alternate in the capital, and the other is Que Hongze, who is in charge of the southeast grain road.

Xue Yinsong had always been very prejudiced against the scholars in ancient times, and he wanted to leave the room after making tea, but now a director of food and roads came, and he had the cheek to move a stool to sit with him.

Fu Binglin had a good impression of Xue Yinsong, and immediately praised Xue Yinsong to his two friends for how capable he was to solve the case by himself. The little scholar is still vivid, as if he had experienced it himself.

Life in ancient times was extremely poor, and the society was relatively simple and stable. It was difficult for ordinary people to encounter murder cases. Jia and Que were both moved when they heard it, and their gazes turned serious and respectful.

Xue Yinsong smiled humbly: "Brother Fu is very eloquent, I was hit by a mistake, but when you said it, I looked like a detective, so I toasted Brother Fu with tea instead of wine."

Fu Binglin smiled and drank: "I've heard from Brother Pei, if it wasn't for Brother Xue's clever plan that day, I don't think this case may be able to be solved."

Xue Yinsong naturally gave in again, Fu Binglin smiled and said: "You don't need to be modest, just see if Brother Xue can refuse to join the guild, I know that Brother Xue can achieve great things in the future."

Jia Chengbo probably knew something inside, he smiled and stroked his beard and said, "The power of the He family has expanded very fast, and now it has extended to Fuchun County."

Que Hongze smiled and said: "There is a backer, I think Prince Fuqing's death will benefit his family the most."

People in the official circles will inevitably involve politics when they get together. Xue Yinsong heard a few superficial explanations from Xiao Xiucai last time, so don't prick up your ears to listen carefully at this time. Sure enough, he only listened to Jia Chengbo: "When Lord Fuqing was in the past, although All forces, big or small, are submissive and calm, but now this death seems to spark sparks all over the place. Although the He family has a lot of power because of the birth of a noble concubine, I heard that the grand master will not let go of his mouth, and this year's official election The fat and the gap are all in your hands."

Que Hongze sneered: "The He family was originally from a merchant, and their meddling in government affairs is only a matter of recent years. The power is too bad. How can he shake the position of the grand master just because his family has a concubine? Let's talk about the head of the He family. The people who disappeared only last year, and I took a look at the new ones, and they are not doing too well."

For the He family, Xiao Xiucai actually had the most right to speak, but instead of speaking, he pretended to be interested and quietly listened to the discussions of several people.

Knowing that he wanted to hide his identity, Xue Yinsong asked the three people beside him with a smile: "The He family you are talking about is the president of the rice and grain guild in the city? He even forced me to join the guild a few days ago."

Que Hongze smiled and said, "It's him. I heard that this person is a distant relative of the He family. He was sent to Fuchun County to disrupt the situation because of his surname He.

Xue Yinsong didn't understand: "Disrupt the situation?"

Que Hongze nodded: "Yes, although Fuchun County is very small, it is the starting point of the southeast grain road. From Huaizhou to Xinzhou, Yangzhou, Yongjia, and Jian'an all the way south, the grain and wheat must go to Beijing from Fuchun County, otherwise You have to bypass the vast hundred-mile mountain to go north. Don’t underestimate the hundred-mile mountain, because the road is twists and turns and it’s extremely difficult to walk, and a team of grain trucks will have to walk for at least a month.”

Although Xue Yinsong has the smart mind and precise vision of modern people, he has lived in the countryside since he was a child, and he doesn't know much about the political system and structure of the Celestial Dynasty. I feel understood, but I don't understand the deep meaning at all.
