Grumpy husband touches his head online [last wear ancient]

Qi Xinyang saw that Lin Qing had eyes instead of eyes, and a nose not nose, so it's fine to stare at him, but now he dares to stare at his angel? !

"It's all right, go now!"

Otherwise he will lose control of himself!

"Don't! There is not enough food in the city, and there may be refugees here in the future, and the village will definitely be targeted." Lin Qing said very quickly, "Now think of a way not only to help me but also to help yourself ah!"

Everyone knew that grain was grown in the village, and this locust plague just happened to catch up with the harvest. The villagers more or less had some grain in storage, and the guards in the village were not as strict as those in the county town, so it was a good place to rob.

Ji Li frowned and said, "The imperial court will send relief food for the locust plague this time. Your savings and food should be able to survive this period of time, right?"

Lin Qing sighed and said: "No matter how much the higher ups give, there are people who want to be greedy. After layer by layer of exploitation, there is not much left."

The emperor naturally hopes to relieve the pressure on the people, but officials are more or less greedy, you are greedy, I am greedy, isn't that all there is?

"I remember that there is a charity warehouse in every county. If the relief food is not enough, don't you use that first?"

"But there's not enough grain in it, it's not enough at all." Although the righteous warehouse was built to distribute grain in times of disaster, if the grain in it becomes worms, it must be cleared out.

So greedy people will lie about the situation and directly greedy the food inside, so there is not much food in the righteous warehouse now, and it can only last for four or five days, which is not enough at all.

Qi Xinyang said: "I remember that there is more than one granary in the county, and isn't the other granary a lot of rice? It is enough to last for three or two months, and the potatoes are almost grown by then."

He has visited places where there is food in the whole county, so don't try to trick angels into helping him with work!

"That's the granary for combat preparations. Only when the new rice comes can the old rice in it be replaced, and you can't touch it at other times."

Qi Xinyang whispered, "It's really troublesome."

But he didn't say to ask Lin Qing to open the granary there, because he knew clearly that the war would happen at any time, and these military rations should never be touched. manage?

Ji Li frowned and said, "Then only grain merchants have grain."

"Of course they have food, but they won't agree to it if they donate it." Lin had made up their minds early on, but they were all slippery. Being able to give some rice is because he is the county magistrate for the sake of...

Qi Xinyang sneered and said, "If it were me, I wouldn't agree either!"

Why should the rice earned by oneself be given to others for free?

Just because they are poor?

Aren't I pitiful for losing so much rice?

Lin Qing couldn't believe it: "Why do you have such an idea?"

After he saw that Qi Xinyang came up with so many prescriptions that benefited the people, he should be selfless, how could he have the same idea as a profiteer?

Is this worthy of praising his talent?

Qi Xinyang naturally didn't understand Lin Qing's thoughts very well, and was about to ask him why he couldn't have such thoughts, but was interrupted by Ji Li, "If they really didn't pay, they wouldn't be happy."

Ji Li knows what Qi Xinyang thinks, and he also knows what Lin Qing thinks. It cannot be said that Qi Xinyang's thoughts are too selfish, because people are selfish and they have to think about their own lives first.

And Lin Qing is a scholar, and he has been educated to serve the people selflessly since he was a child, so he is particularly displeased with the businessmen's behavior for themselves.

The two people's thoughts can't say who is right and who is wrong, but if they continue to talk, they will definitely quarrel.

Someone diverted attention to Lin Qing, who naturally paid more attention to how to deal with the food. He said in distress, "Then what should I do?" Now that he doesn't have a life to ask for money, how can he let those profiteers donate food?

Ji Li chuckled lightly: "Although they are rich, there are some things they don't have!"

Scholars, farmers, commerce and industry are not joking. Even if they are rich, they still have to bow their heads in front of officials.

Lin Qing immediately reacted, "The imperial examination, they can't take the imperial examination!"

The sons of merchants cannot take the imperial examination, and many academies do not accept them if they want to study in academies. If you want them to donate rice, you can start from this aspect.

"But the imperial examination has to be approved by the emperor, I can't make the decision." It is possible to talk to the emperor later, but I just think that the situation is urgent and I can't wait for such a long time.

"In addition to the imperial examination, there is also reputation!"

"Fame?" Lin Qing frowned, "A group of profiteers still want fame?"

Don't even want to donate food and still want fame?

They are thinking peaches!

"The adults give them the reputation they want, and they will naturally donate food enthusiastically."

"How to give them a reputation? Let a few talented people sing praises?" It's not impossible...

"Although this has given them a little reputation, it is not enough." After all, they can pay for people to write if they want, after all, there are not many rich scholars.

"What shall we do then?"

"Torii!"

Lin Qing didn't even want to refuse: "This is not possible!"

The memorial archway was established to commend meritorious service, discipline, morality, loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness. Not everyone can be qualified for this, even if he is a county magistrate, he was only erected when he was admitted to be the number one scholar. How can a group of profiteers be qualified? ? !

"It's not for everyone. It's just that all the grain merchants who have donated grain are written on it, and the amount of grain is written there." Ji Li thought for a while and said, "In terms of life story, write the one who donated the most. When the time comes, the competition should be Very intense."

Lin Qing hesitated, this archway is equivalent to all the grain merchants who donate grain, it is not like they have their own independent archway.

Qi Xinyang curled his lips and said, "What's there to hesitate about? How can I ask people to donate food without paying anything?" Besides, it's just a memorial archway, and it doesn't cost much. It's much better than spending money to buy such expensive food.

Lin Qing also knew that there was something to gain only if he gave up, so he took advantage of those profiteers.

Then he discussed with Ji Li how to carry it out before leaving.

Seeing people leave, Qi Xinyang couldn't help complaining, "How could he hesitate to get so much food from just one memorial archway?"

If it were him, he would set up as many archways as they wanted!

"It's not just an archway, it's a reputation."

"What's the use of fame if you can't eat it?"

"It's easy for an official to get a reputation, but it's very difficult for a civilian or a businessman to get a reputation." Ji Li laughed, "After having a good reputation, the road will be much easier."

Qi Xinyang scratched his hair, "If you think it's good, let's donate a little too?"

Anyway, he didn't think this reputation was of any use, but as long as the angel is happy!

"You don't need us, you go and let Li Sanniang get ready."

Qi Xinyang groaned, "The name on the stage must not be her?"

He and Li Sanniang only made a verbal agreement, and no one knew that they had a cooperative relationship. Of course, if Li Sanniang regretted that they did not cooperate, he would have no way to prove it, but if she dared to repent, she would let him know why Hua'er is so popular!

"We have to write about her. As a woman, she needs fame more than us in business. After gaining fame, she can make money for us."

When Li Sanniang first started doing business, many people looked down on her, and some people liked to be extravagant. Qi Xinyang used some threats in the past to reduce the harassment.

When Li Sanniang went to other places to do business, Qi Xinyang had to train several thugs before he dared to let them go.

But if she had this reputation, Li Sanniang would be much less obstructed when she went out to trade, and she wouldn't have to use force to suppress her all the time.

After Qi Xinyang heard the second half of the sentence, he stopped trying to persuade Ji Li to make up his mind, "Then I'll let her get ready."

After all, a lot of food is still outside, and it has to be brought back quickly to compete.

only……

"Can we go and see?"

Ji Li was surprised: "Don't you dislike this lively environment?"

"I wonder how many rice they have!"

This is the reason Qi Xinyang would think of, "That's fine, just let the county magistrate take us in."

As for why not with Li Sanniang?

Who in this county doesn't know that they and Lin Qing can go in together, and when they go in with Li Sanniang, they will definitely suspect that Li Sanniang was hired by them, which is not beautiful.

The merchants in the county knew it well when they were invited by Lin Qing. After all, there is a shortage of food in this place, and the county magistrate must have asked them to donate food again.

This is a good time to make money, whoever doesn't make money is an idiot, how can he donate food?

The merchants all know each other, don’t you want to be isolated if you don’t earn money together?Besides, what's the use of being alone?

Looking at Lin Qing who walked in, they just greeted each other with a smile, and there was nothing else.

If Lin Qing asked them to donate food again, would they cry poorly?Who doesn't have an 80-year-old mother and an eight-year-old to support?

Lin Qing naturally also saw their reluctance. If it wasn't for the fact that there was no reason to investigate them, he would drag them down to beat dozens of boards, and then ransack their homes.

Now that it's a time of crisis, it's so immoral to think only of yourself!

He took a deep breath and told about the archway. Sure enough, many merchants were moved. Seeing this, he felt at ease, as long as they asked for something.

It's just that although they were moved, they didn't dare to speak out. After all, who knows if what the county magistrate said is true?And they are just merchants. If the county magistrate changes his words later, they will not be able to sue them, and they will have no place to cry.

Even though Lin Qing has a good reputation, he has helped a lot of people recently, which shows that he is a good official.

But they have seen too many hypocrites, who knows what is hidden under their stomachs?Besides, it is unheard of to set up a memorial archway for merchants. If the higher-ups refuse to set up a memorial archway, how dare their county magistrate be disobedient?

So the scene was silent for a while...

Seeing this, Lin Qing was even angrier. He promised to set up an archway for them, but they still didn't agree to donate? !

They just want to earn those black-hearted money at this time, right?

Seeing this, Ji Li gestured to Li Sanniang with his eyes, after all, this kind of occasion cannot be done without a trustee.

Li Sanniang naturally understood Ji Li's expression, "My lord, did the higher-ups agree to set up the archway? Or is it up to you to decide?"

The merchants present all listened with pricked ears, which is what they wanted to know the most.

"Naturally, the superiors agreed." Lin Qing said without changing his face.

Qi Xinyang asked in a low voice, "How did he get the news so quickly this time?"

It took him a long time to ask Fangzi to ask for rewards from above, and it took a month or two to do it, but now it can be done in a few days?

Isn't Lin Qing delaying his reward on purpose?

"He knows that this kind of thing is a trivial matter for the superiors, so he can just report it directly, and it will be quick." Fame is very important to officials and people, but it is dispensable to the emperor. The owner of his land, as long as It doesn't matter if anyone scolds him for not doing anything too extreme, so Lin Qing also knows that erecting a memorial archway is a trivial matter for the emperor, and disaster relief is a major matter.

Knowing that the higher-ups agreed, their hearts were half relieved, and now they will see who will be the first to do this.

Li Sanniang, who was half the trustee, was naturally the first to speak, "Three hundred stones!"

Three hundred stones are about 3000 catties, and now one mu of land only produces more than 200 catties, which is a lot.

The surrounding merchants also took a deep breath. They didn't expect Li Sanniang to donate so much directly. Aren't you afraid that the county magistrate will regret it later?

Li Sanniang is naturally not afraid, she has a backer!

If there is a young bird, there will naturally be people who will follow. No.1 can write a life story, and naturally many people will follow, "I will give you five hundred stones!"

"Six hundred stones!"

Li Sanniang naturally continued to follow, "Seven hundred stones!"

Hearing the count of food, Qi Xinyang took a deep breath. He didn't expect them to have so much food!

He was complacent about collecting so much food, but they all turned out to be so much!

He also wanted to see if he could donate some, so that the angel's name could also be engraved on the archway...

The result is that he is not worthy...
