Wearing a county magistrate to build infrastructure

"You probably haven't seen Uncle Xu when you were sober in the Xu family." Tang Zisheng thought out his thoughts and asked back.

Shen Yiran thought about it for a while and shook his head. Indeed, he didn't. Not long after he was sober, Brother Xu gave him Mafeisan and passed out. If he didn't go to Xu's house today, he probably didn't even know that there was another person in Xu's family.

"It's probably because your eyes look like an old friend, that's why Uncle Xu is abnormal."

When Shen Yiran heard the eyes, he frowned slightly. Someone said before that his eyes looked like an old friend.

Is this old man the same person?But how could the general know the same person as a farmer? Perhaps he was thinking too much.

-

"Daddy, why are you so out of your mind?" Xu Qingcheng moved a small bench, sat down and began to tidy up the herbs picked from the mountains in the morning.

"It's okay." Xu Yingle's expression was in a trance, such a pair of eyes, and his surname was Shen, whether it was a coincidence or something, "Do you know the details of that brother Shen?"

"Brother Shen? I only heard Mr. Tang say that he is from the General's Mansion."

General's Mansion, no wonder, Xu Yingle sneered, and planned to go back to the house, but just as he was about to leave, he saw his stupid brother messing up the medicinal materials.

"Ask whatever you want, why are you destroying medicinal materials with your head down?"

"Actually, I don't really want to ask, but I'm just a little curious." Xu Qingcheng got his father's permission, and immediately showed an expression of wanting to know, looking more than a little curious, "Daddy knows the general?"

"There are so many generals in Dayu, which one do you say?" Xu Yingle replied angrily.

"Of course it's General Jing who put down the Northwest Rebellion more than ten years ago." Otherwise, who else could it be? He doesn't know anyone in the court except the emperor.

Xu Yingle nodded dispensably, she knew each other, but it was not a good relationship.

"Oh." Daddy actually knew such a powerful person, he always felt like he was lying.

"Your father, it's not my turn to lie to you, you little fool. I didn't tell you that I used to work for a rich family. This rich family also has a bit of a face in the capital. I have a good relationship with General Jing's family. It's strange to know General Jing. "

"That's true too." He should have asked his father, if General Jing knew him, he had miscalculated.

"Would you like to ask who your father is by the way?" Xu Yingle added another sentence. His brother always doesn't play cards according to the routine. My son asked once and never mentioned it again, which made him uncomfortable as a father.

"Don't ask, I know my father is definitely not dead. At first when I asked, I thought it was my father who failed you. But now that I have grown up, looking back at your expression, Daddy, I feel that you have failed him. If I ask carefully, I will know Daddy, you are a heartless brother, I'm afraid your brother's love for you will deteriorate."

Xu Qingcheng didn't ask if he was killed, unless his father was willing to say it himself.

"Uh..." Although what you said made sense, he didn't really let him down, "I went back to the house to embroider things."

Xu Qingcheng waited for his father to enter the house before he breathed a sigh of relief, and asked him to ask his father. Don't ask every time, even if someone mentions his father, he will always look dazed, which is definitely not a good thing.

He still honestly followed the method taught by Mr. Tang to grow potatoes, and after a few months for the potatoes to grow, he would not disappoint Mr. Tang's trust in him.

Tang Zisheng returned to the county office and asked Shen Yiran to send two threatening letters to the mansions of Zheng Gongshu and Hai Lishu, using the tone of people they had offended before. It would take a few days for these two clerks to resign automatically .

"My lord." Fang Muyuan, as the newly appointed household secretary, still wins Tang Zisheng's heart very much, at least when he spends money without explaining, this young man doesn't ask too much.

"Have you bought the grain in Donglin County?" With money in his hand, Tang Zisheng took part of the silver to buy grain. After that, the grain would only become more expensive, and it would only be beneficial for him to stockpile grain earlier.

"I bought it. I pretended to be a merchant, and after getting close to the rice merchants in Donglin County, I was recommended to the household book of Donglin County. Donglin County collects a lot of taxes. So there is no shortage of food. Compared The price of grain, I bought grain with all the money I had.”

Fang Muyuan's trip this time can be regarded as an experience, but fortunately, the magistrate of Donglin County is an idiot, and the people under him are not smart.

Although doing this kind of reselling of tax grains is not expensive, they don't dare to make a big show of doing this kind of thing. At most, they sell it to local rice merchants. If the price is high, the rice merchants will naturally not want to buy it.

However, the imperial court does not collect this tax. No matter how much they sell, they are empty-handed wolves, and they can't lose money.

"It seems that there is a lot of grain in Donglin County." Tang Zisheng knew how much money Fang Muyuan brought out, and the purchase price was far lower than the price of rice on the market, which shows that the other party still has something in his hand.

"That's right, although not much rice is sold, the tax in Donglin County has not been lowered. So there should be a batch in their granary. My lord, do you want to go down and buy it?"

Fang Muyuan knew that it was illegal to buy tax and food, and if he was found out in the future, he would have to go to jail.But he also knew that since Mr. Tang in front of him wanted him to sell grain, he probably had bigger intentions.

"I don't need it for the time being. I still have use for this money, and I emptied the granary in Donglin County at once. I'm afraid the life of the people there will be even more difficult." lack.

Now he is short of money, weapons, and horses. He hasn't got any of them. After finishing the food, these are the most important things.

"Yes, my lord." Fang Muyuan thought about the amount of silver taels left in the account, which he had never seen in his entire life.But judging from Master Tang's point of view, the money is not enough, and the money is quite stretched.

"Which is the richest mansion in Xizhou?" Tang Zisheng has no money, so he naturally wants to make money. Otherwise, when he does business with the general's mansion, the general is willing to provide him with soldiers and horses, but he has no money to buy them. It's a joke.

"It's Kaiyun Mansion. Although Xizhou is the most barren among the four prefectures, Kaiyun Mansion is located at the junction of the four prefectures, so it is the closest to the prosperous Nanzhou in Xizhou." Fang Muyuan answered truthfully.

"I see, it's been hard work this time, let's go back and rest first." Tang Zisheng came up with the idea of ​​Kaiyun Mansion.

"Yes, I will resign." When Fang Muyuan left the room, Tang Mosey, who was guarding the door, gave him a dime.

"My lord gave it, saying it was hard work." Tang Mo knew that the money was the young master's private account, probably the young master knew that besides the salary, he also had an extra piece of support money, which was ten times the annual salary. Appreciating people can't see being stingy.

Fang Muyuan held the money, and the scribe's annual salary was only so much, barely supporting his family.But it is also more than what he gave as a cashier in the hands of others, and now he is rewarding silver, which shows that this lord does not treat his subordinates harshly.

Not long after they arrived, Wang Lishu left. According to Lu Jiaoyu, Zheng Gongshu and Hai Lishu would not stay any longer, so the vacant space needs to be able to be occupied by people. He happened to know someone who is suitable for working in the workshop. people.

Maybe such an adult can let that brother come here to work.

"Thank you sir for me."

Tang Mo nodded, and after seeing the person left, he heard the young master's order to find Zhou Xiancheng, so he went to Zhou County Cheng.

……

"Doing business in Kaiyun Mansion? What kind of business do you plan to do?" Zhou Nanchuan has been very leisurely recently. Except for Hai Lishu and Zheng Gongshu, everyone in the sixth room seems to have been beaten with chicken blood, making him the county capital. Free your hands.

If it wasn't for his mansion not being in the county government office, he would probably be hiding in the courtyard just like Tang Zisheng every day.

"People put food first, so it is natural to do food business." What else can he do business, except some fresh food can be produced, at most a bar of soap, the rest is just what he wants to do, and he needs time to experiment.

Now he only regrets that he didn't learn well back then, otherwise there would have been countless novel ideas that made him a lot of money.

"It's not me hitting you. Kaiyun Mansion can have the grand scenery of Nanzhou in the barren land of Xizhou. Apart from the geographical location, it is all kinds of fresh food. If you want to talk about other businesses, I can still support them, but the food business , [-]% will be compensated."

The Zhou family is a wealthy businessman in Nanzhou, not the richest man in Nanzhou, but it still has a place in Nanzhou. Compared with Tang Zisheng's Tang family, it is even more gigantic. Zhou Nanchuan does not say that he has much talent for business.But under the influence of ears and eyes, his eyes are still vicious enough.

"Isn't there still two points?" There are many fresh foods, but not necessarily many varieties. Among other things, there are snail noodles. He bet that there is no such thing in Dayu.

Zhou Nanchuan saw that it didn't make sense, so he asked the source instead, "Why do you suddenly want to start a business? You just paid your salary so you don't need money."

"Do you think that little money will be enough for me to buy soldiers and horses from the General's Mansion in addition to daily expenses?" Now the money in the mansion of Cang'er County comes from house raids, and there will be no shortage of money at that time, and then copy a few squires. let's go home.

Besides, how could there be so many squires who committed crimes enough for him to copy.

"Before, I wanted to ask you how to solve this problem. Is this your solution?"

"Increasing income and reducing expenditure, we don't have any expenditure to reduce, naturally we only have open source, and if we want to say what to do to make money quickly, it is natural to do business to make money quickly."

"But there are so many business avenues, how did you choose to be in the catering business? You probably don't have enough money to buy a restaurant in Kaiyun Mansion. If you just open a small restaurant, it may be a drop in the bucket."

"Most of the other businesses need connections. Now you and I don't have high authority. If we want to grow big, I'm afraid people won't buy it. What's more, I don't have money, don't you?"

Tang Zisheng spoke very naturally, as if he didn't notice that Zhou Nanchuan's eyes changed a little because of these words.

"Do you want face?" Zhou Nanchuan didn't expect that Tang Zisheng would dare to set his mind on him. If he has money, he doesn't just rush around casually. If he loses this little money, let alone buy soldiers and horses.

"I pay for the technology and you pay for it, isn't it fair?" With his skills, only Zhou Nanchuan could win.

"Why, I don't know that Mr. Tang is not only a flirtatious dude in Nanzhou, but also a master chef who can enter the kitchen?"

It wasn't that Zhou Nanchuan didn't believe it, but that there was nothing about Tang Zisheng that made people believe that he could cook.

"Then I'll show you tonight. If you admit that it's delicious, you'll pay all the money to open the restaurant in Kaiyun Mansion." Other Tang Zisheng can still lose, but he definitely can't lose when eating.

"We'll wait and see." When Zhou Nanchuan saw that Tang Zisheng was so confident, he knew that he would probably lose.

But if he loses or loses, he has to spend thousands of taels of silver to buy a restaurant. Wouldn't it be nice for him to eat in advance how much food is sold in this restaurant?

"Did you eat spicy food?" Tang Zisheng's smile concealed a mystery. Peppers were also brought over by foreigners. Compared with other hard-to-find potatoes and sweet potatoes, peppers have taken root in Dayu one step earlier. Eating spicy food is not new. thing.

But Tang Zisheng has a lot of ideas on how to eat spicy food.

Zhou Nanchuan nodded without noticing it, but it was a bit cold because there was a chilly wind blowing from behind, but it was still sunny outside, it shouldn't be.
