Qinghe Mansion is now initially settled after the chaos, and large areas of houses and fields have become ownerless.Bao Jinghuan broke up the remaining residents of Qinghe Mansion and moved them to live in different places, re-measured the acres and distributed the land.

Those common people, many of whom participated in the rebellion, saw the end of the rebel army in the past few days, and they were terrified day and night, for fear that one day the government would settle old scores and drag them out.

The imperial court also offered rewards to encourage everyone to report each other to see who had treasonous behavior, and received letters of report from door to door, and everyone felt insecure and trembling for a while.

It's just that they didn't expect that the new prefect of Qinghe Mansion, after gathering countless letters of accusation, would burn them down in front of everyone, to show that the past was not to blame, and let them relocate and change people and redistribute the land.

Some of these people had no land at all, and the redistribution of land was a great joy for them!

But it is because this is a happy event that these people cannot be too relaxed, otherwise everyone will follow suit in the future.

So Bao Jinghuan first provoked the neighbors to report each other, so that the villagers who were originally in a group began to split from within, and everyone became suspicious. Even if they were not separated, these people would not dare to trust each other. They would only thank the new magistrate for letting go of the past.

After the land is redistributed, the tax will be reduced or exempted within three years, but within five years, everyone will be used as government labor.

One reward and one punishment, one relaxation and one relaxation, firmly hold these common people in their hands, can't bear the heart of rebellion, and are grateful to the government.

Tan Yushu looked at Bao Jinghuan's many strategies to calm the people, and was very satisfied. He was kind-hearted, but he also knew the art of imperial servants, so he was very suitable to be a parent official, so he entrusted him with full authority in the affairs of the government, and never interfered again.

During the feast together, Tan Yushu asked, "Where is Mr. Bao from?"

Bao Jinghuan hurriedly got up and saluted: "The ancestral home of this official is from Chong'an Prefecture, Jinzhou."

"Haha, what a coincidence, my maternal ancestor's family is from Jinzhou, and it is only one mansion away from Chong'an Mansion."

Meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign country, and the old acquaintance is still an officer. Bao Jinghuan immediately talked about the customs of his hometown like rain, and Tan Yushu also smiled and recalled to him the situation when he was a child in his grandfather's house. .

When the wine was full, Tan Yushu said casually: "Brother Bao is really a wonderful person. I really want to introduce you to the eminent monk of Erfa Temple. He is also a person who likes to make friends. He must be very happy to see you."

This Mr. Bao is also a knowledgeable and interesting person, and immediately toasted: "My lord, speaking of this, I have a worrying thing. The gang of rebellious officials and thieves, who ran amok, rushed into the local temple to plunder gold and silver. Killed all the monks in the temple and used it as a den of bandits, the disaster was terrible, and now there is no one to preside over the temple, why not let the eminent monks of Efa Temple work hard?"

Tan Yushu was surprised and said, "This happened? Then I have time to ask Master Miaofa. I think he is always merciful and willing to help in emergency situations."

Bao Jinghuan immediately stood up and bowed: "In this way, Mr. Lao will be here."

Tan Yushu smiled slightly and helped him up: "Brother Bao, why are you being so polite? These days, Brother Bao is doing his best for the Qinghe Mansion. When Tan returns to Beijing, he must report to Enxiang and His Majesty! Master Bao, please calmly manage Qinghe The government, presumably the good news will arrive soon."

Bao Jinghuan immediately said: "Being loyal to His Majesty and fulfilling one's duty to the Prime Minister is originally a subordinate's duty, but it's hard for Mr. Tan not to give up, but to take these little things to heart. I am really grateful."

"Haha, brother Bao is serious."

Looking at Bao Jinghuan, Tan Yushu understood Emperor Jiaming for the first time.

How comfortable it is to have a subordinate who can read people's faces, handle affairs and speak well. No wonder His Majesty only favors Prime Minister Song.Now he feels that this Bao Jinghuan is an inferior to the head of a government.

In this way, Chi Li picked up another temple for nothing, and under the repairs of hard labor, it quickly returned to its original state. There is also a large Buddhist field at the foot of the mountain, which can be used as a seed production base.

Chi Li looked at Tan Yushu, and Tan Yushu also looked at him.

What's the matter, don't tell brother Chi to stop pretending, why does he have this expression now?Should you be more reserved?

Chi Li looked him up and down, this man was a high official in ancient times, with a look and a word, someone rushed to deliver things to their hands.

"When I go back, I'll develop a convenient ledger function for Xiaohu. You can use this to keep your black ledger."

Tan Yushu: ...

"Brother Chi, why should I memorize that kind of thing?"

Chi Li said as it should: "The paper version is not safe, I will give you the entire electronic version, absolutely no one can crack it."

Tan Yushu: ...

Is there a possibility that he can not remember?

Slowly looking at Chili, oh, it's impossible.

Tan Yushu vaguely felt that something was wrong, blinked his eyes, and asked a crucial question: "Brother Chi, can the money deposited in Qinghe Mansion really be withdrawn at Efa Temple with a ticket?"

Chi Li glanced up at him, leaned on the wheelchair, stroked the cat's neck, and smiled slightly: "Master Tan is really good at joking, of course you can pick up the ticket."

The important thing is that you bring me the ticket.

Tan Yushu: ...

Why did he have the illusion that all the money he had managed to steal went into Brother Chi's hands?

The branch temple of Erfa Temple in Qinghe Mansion was opened just like that.

Originally, the capital was far away from Qinghefu Mountain, and it was beyond reach. It was not so easy to build it, but who made Erfa Temple have such a golden thigh as "General Tianwei"?

Because of the living signboard of "Tianwei General", wealthy businessmen in Qingxi Mansion came here to deposit money one after another, and the working capital of Efa Temple was immediately in place. With money, everything is convenient.

Yu Wenlu is a heroic man, and he does things very neatly. The printing factory quickly produced it. The southern culture is full of energy. No matter whether it is recruiting people or selling books, the newspaper should be produced quickly. The first edition of the story, of course. It's "General Tianwei's wisdom captures Tianzun"~

With the initial funds, micro-loans have also been developed. Qinghe Mansion is in a state of waste, and such micro-loans are really needed for them.

With the reputation of "General Tianwei", the people of Qinghe Mansion also have a high degree of trust in Efa Temple. The business quickly started vigorously, and various industries quickly began to rebuild.

Efa Temple is now relying on the influence of "General Tianwei" to accumulate initial capital.When Qinghe Mansion becomes more and more prosperous in the future, Efa Temple will naturally become the real economic center of this area.

In the future, the wealthy businessmen of Qingxi Mansion will find that this is actually a far-sighted investment.

The Efa Temple in Qinghe Mansion and the Efa Temple in the capital are two base points. The two-way extension of one south and one north will soon take root throughout the country. By then, he will be able to give back to him, General Tan.

Of course, if you apply by ticket, he, as a partner, has to find out what happened, where did the money go?

Tan Yushu: ...

His mother didn't care about him so strictly.

But you don’t have to think about making money, it feels so good to just ask for money, Tan Yushu blinked: "Brother Chi, let's buy a boat and go boating on the lake, but I don't have enough money, can I get it now?" ?”

Chi Li snorted: "Then you have to apply..."

Before he finished speaking, Tan Yushu squatted down, lay on his lap, and asked innocently with his big eyes open, "Brother Chi, do you want to apply for such a small amount of money?"

Pond: ...

What does Tan Yushu want to do!

The little old man was lying in Chi Li's arms, enjoying the emperor's masturbation service. Unexpectedly, the big face of the former owner suddenly approached him.

What are you doing?Does he want the new owner to pluck him too?

Well, for the sake of the former owner, give him a place.

Before it could move, Chi Li had already "slapped" it and threw it on the ground. Fortunately, Mao Mao was sensitive and landed lightly. Looking back at the two "two-legged beasts", what's the matter?

Chi Li pinched his face viciously: "Say, what's the bad idea?"

Tan Yushu smiled without fear: "Try to see if acting like a baby is good for Brother Chi."

Chi Li sandwiched his face between his two big hands, and looked at him viciously: "Are you so coquettish?"

"Ha, in fact, the Qinghe Mansion is now in a state of waste. Master Bao suggested that I, the 'General Tianwei', take the lead in spending more money. If I spend first, the rich merchants will follow suit. There are more people who spend money. The industry earns more and the economy recovers faster.”

Chi Li snorted coldly, lowered his head slowly, and raised his chin: "So, you are still spending money for the people? Do you need me to say something, Mr. Tan, you have worked hard."

"Haha, no hard work, no hard work."

The two were playing around, when suddenly there was a voice: "Master!"

Before the two could react, they saw Yu Wenlu running in excitedly, and for a while, the world was silent.

Tan Yushu: ...

Forgot to close the door!

And Yu Wenlu...

?

In the room, Mr. Tan was lying on Grandmaster's lap. The master was holding Master Tan's face, and there was also a giant ugly cat, with its head tilted and wrinkled face, circling around the two of them, as if asking: What the hell?

This is what Yu Wenlu wanted to ask: What is this thing?

Tan Yushu stood up calmly covering his eyes, rubbed them vigorously: "It seems to be gone, thank you Brother Chi, it's really uncomfortable to have sand in your eyes."

Oh, it turned out that there was sand in his eyes, so Yu Wenlu stopped thinking about it, but told Chi Li about the work progress of the Efa Temple.

When the report was finished and went out, there was a sudden drizzle in the sky again. Yu Wenlu was too lazy to open an umbrella and rushed to the printing factory.

But when the drizzle hit his head, he suddenly remembered one thing.

In this season in the south, it is the time when the drizzle is mild and the wind is gentle. Mr. Tan is in the house, where did the sand get in his eyes?

After Yu Wenlu left, Chi Li's shoulders couldn't help shaking. After working hard for a long time, he still couldn't hold it back.

"Come... come here... be coquettish again... poof..."

Tan Yushu: ...

Next time you act like a baby, remember to lock the door!

……

Even so, Tan Yushu succeeded in acting like a baby.

There are water systems near Qinghe Mansion, there are many master shipbuilders, and the money is in place, and the small painting boat that Tan Yushu wanted was built in less than three days.

The open canopy is convenient for viewing the scenery. Four large glazed lamps are hung at the four corners, and a row of small glazed lamps are hung under the eaves on both sides.

Bring a charcoal stove, some fresh fish, and a cooking pot, this time they are going to do something different on the lake, boil fresh fish fillets!

Onion, ginger, garlic, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, pepper and other seasonings are all available, but unfortunately there is no most important pepper, which loses some flavor.But even if there is, brother Chi can't eat much right now, so let's forget it.

After taking these, I prepared some new tea, pine nut candy, lotus seed cake, sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and almond cake as snacks for entertainment. I also brought two jars of local special apricot blossom wine at the stern.

Tan Yushu put the boat into the lake, and when he got to the middle of the lake, he stopped using the oars and let the boat float naturally with the current.

Chi Li rolled up his sleeves, set up a charcoal stove cooking pot, lit the charcoal fire, and threw in the seasonings without any fuss. After a while, a strong and spicy aroma wafted from the boat, matching the heavy night dew. , the fragrance of lotus leaves is intertwined, which has a special taste.

Seeing the aroma boiling, Tan Yushu went to the stern to get a jar of wine, broke the mud seal, took a spoonful of wine in a bamboo tube, and poured it on the boiling noodle soup.

After adjusting the flavors, Tan Yushu took two thick bowls, filled them with wine in a bamboo tube, and said with a smile, "This wine from Qinghe Mansion is soft and mellow, but not strong. Brother Chi, you can drink it lightly."

Chi Li picked up the wine bowl and didn't drink it. He only smelled the clear aroma of the wine and the faint night breeze, and his eyes fell on Tan Yushu.

Tan Yushu took out a shiny short knife from his body, cleaned up the fish skillfully, and then took slices of fish meat as thin as cicada's wings from the fish, and picked them on the newly folded lotus leaves.

It didn't take long before layer after layer of crystal fish fillets were spread, as if a pure white jade peony was supported on the emerald green plate.

Tan Yushu stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "Brother Chi, please try it, our dish is called... um... Boiled Drunken Peony!"

Chi Li snorted softly, cooking the fish fillets, cooking them all in a fancy way, wouldn't it make them more delicious?

Stretch out the long bamboo chopsticks, pick up a piece, and put it into the pot. The fish fillet is cut very thin, and it can be eaten after a little rolling in the soup.

Take out the white meat, dip a little soy sauce in the bowl, put it in the mouth with the lotus leaf.

The fish at this time is the freshest and tender, with some spice and wine aroma, it melts in the mouth and has an endless aftertaste.

Huh, it's really delicious...

Two people, you have one chopstick, and I have one chopstick. Soon, half a fish will go down.

Tan Yushu picked up the wine bowl on the boat and drank it all in one gulp. Hearing the fresh water vapor and the fragrance of lotus leaves from the lake, he felt relieved.

Chi Li took a look at him, Tan Yushu actually liked to drink, every time he finished drinking, his whole body seemed to relax.

As the weather got hotter, the clothes on Tan Yushu's body became thinner with the weather. The light green shirt slid down along with the movement, revealing a delicate wrist.

It's not right to say that, he himself is quite young, but he usually carries it too much.

Looking down at so many fresh fish fillets on the lotus leaves, the little old man would be very happy if he was there.

But Maomao is afraid of water, so for its own good, Chi Li stuffed it into Yu Wenlu's place.

There is no doubt that it is really for its own good.

As a nobleman from Beijing, Tan Yushu's every move has attracted much attention.

I heard that he was going to build a boat and tour the lake, so of course other people would also come to "encounter" him.

Not long after, many ship lights floated faintly in the night mist.

The magistrate of Qingxi was also dressed in plain clothes, and he came on a black-covered boat on the lake. When he saw Tan Yushu, he immediately looked surprised, stepped onto the bow of the boat, and bowed his hands: "What a coincidence, Mr. Tan is also so elegant, so Night tour on the lake."

Tan Yushu immediately stood up and returned the gift: "It's precisely the beautiful scenery of Qinghe Mansion that made Tan feel homesick when looking at it, so he and Master Miaofa went swimming on the lake together."

The prefect of Qingxi immediately gave some relief, then saw Chi Li, and raised his hand to salute: "Master Miaofa is also here."

Chi Li glanced at him indifferently, and clasped his hands in return.

The two were chatting there, Chi Li continued to catch fish calmly, and the delicious aroma was wafting from the lotus leaf fragrance. Wang Zhifu couldn't help but started to salivate and swallowed his saliva quietly.

Tan Yushu smiled, then broke off another lotus leaf, boiled some fish meat, sprinkled some fish soup on a bamboo tube, and handed it to him.

Wang Zhifu took the lotus leaf bowl carefully, and an old woman serving beside him took out a pair of clean chopsticks.Wang Zhifu poured the leaves and drank the fish soup and tasted the fresh and tender fish meat. The fresh fragrance of the fish was wrapped with the fragrance of the lotus leaves. fish."

Tan Yushu smiled, and picked up a bamboo tube to fill him with a barrel of fine wine, and Wang Zhifu quickly took the lotus leaf to pick it up.

Tan Yushu smiled slightly and said: "Tan has nothing else to like in his life, but he has studied food. Like now, he puts a lone boat, cooks in a small stove, folds a few lotus leaves into dishes, and there is often a night breeze. Wouldn't it be nice to travel between the heavens and the earth with you?"

Wang Zhifu is also a scholar. Hearing what he said, he also felt free. He held the lotus leaf and drank the fine wine, and sighed: "Master Tan is really a free and easy and noble person. I will never be able to be an official. I only hope that one day, the sea and the river will be clear." Yan, he went boating on the lake and got this wild fun."

Chi Li almost wanted to roll his eyes: If there are fewer officials like you, Haihe will be cleared up as soon as possible.

But Tan Yushu is not an ordinary person. He praised the rainbow fart for a long time to this fat man with a fat head, and of course, Wang Zhifu also praised him back.

He poured some fish meat and fine wine for him, and there was a silver bell-like laughter from the shed, and a young woman showed her head.

I saw her covering her face with a silk fan, only her eyes were exposed, she smiled sweetly, and her beautiful eyes looked forward: "Master Tan is really elegant and refined. My lord and daddy drink for fun, and the little girl plays a piano, thinking it is elegant."

Wang Zhifu immediately laughed: "My little girl is being abrupt." After saying that, let her play the piano in the boat.

When the melodious piano sound came, Chi Li squinted at Tan Yushu and sneered.

Tan Yushu: ...

He didn't even think about it!

After a few more hahas, Wang Zhifu finally left by boat, and Chi Li rolled his eyes.

They just had a leisurely time, and were about to continue eating, when the other people in line saw Mr. Wang had left, they punted over in twos and threes to meet them by chance.

Chi Li put down his chopsticks, is this still for people to eat?

Tan Yushu still smiled and accompanied them one by one, or offered a few pieces of fish, or a few cups of wine, or grabbed a few handfuls of pine nut candy, and every visitor returned with a full heart.

Until there was a sudden light rain, the boat without a canopy could only go back, and the boat with a canopy could not stay for too long. Only Chili and their painting boat remained on the lake.

There was a sudden silence between heaven and earth, Tan Yushu stretched out his hand to check the rain, smiled awkwardly but politely: "Brother Chi, do you still want to eat?"

Chi Li gave a cold snort and crossed his arms, and he took a fart. He took a good tour of the lake, and he just made it into a live broadcast, oh no, there was also a blind date.

Tonight, almost all the beauties from Qingxi Mansion and Qinghe Mansion came. He, Tan Yushu, was really blessed.

Tan Yushu looked at his expression, and said weakly: "Brother Chi, not all of them come to see me, right? We monks can also marry wives, maybe we also come to see you, Brother Chi."

Heh, talk back!

Chi Li especially wanted to squeeze his face into a flat shape, but since the boat was unobstructed, it was difficult to do it, so he could only look at him viciously, and it would be over when you go back!

Tan Yushu: ...

Bending down resentfully, he used the lake water to wash away the fishy smell on his hands when he was slicing the fish. The lanterns on the boat swayed on the lake, and were smashed into thousands of sparkling lights by the raindrops messing with the cow's hair.

Tan Yushu tied up his long sleeves and immersed his whole hand and half of his arm in the water. The broken lamp shadows hit his pure white arm, stirring up a messy glimmer of light.

Suddenly, Tan Yushu's hand, which was submerged in the water, was grabbed by another big hand.

A blood-red rose was broken into pieces by the shimmering lake surface. Two hands under the water were intertwined and intertwined, shaking the white moonlight like jade while shaking the red shadow like clouds.

The boat lady who stayed on the boat by the lake looked enviously at the shadows of the boats coming and going on the lake, with carved beams and painted walls, until there was only one painting boat left.

A child nestled in his mother's arms, pointed at the boat and said, "Mother, it's General Tianwei!"

His mother smiled and said: "Yes, it is General Tianwei, he will leave our place soon."

The child was very disappointed: "Huh? I still want to learn martial arts from him."

His mother patted his head: "Then you should study hard and become a person as powerful as General Tianwei in the future. Go to the capital to find him. The capital is a hundred times better than ours."

The kid pouted, but studying costs a lot of money, he doesn't study, he wants to learn martial arts!

He glanced enviously at General Tianwei's beautiful painting boat, and wished that one day, he could also own a boat full of beautiful glazed lanterns like this!

But why did General Tianwei and that great monk keep soaking their hands in the water?

The child turned around and asked his mother, but his mother couldn't understand, and hesitated, "Maybe he was catching fish?"

"But will it catch fish?"

"General Tianwei came from the capital, maybe he didn't know about it."

The boat of Chi Li and Tan Yushu slowly docked, and the two of them finally stopped catching fish.

Looking at the mother and son who were still asleep, Tan Yushu leaned out and smiled and said, "I'm sorry for disturbing your rest. I'm going back to Beijing tomorrow. There are some things on the boat that are inconvenient to take away. Do you want them?"

Under the cover of the lights, Tan Yushu's face was carved like white jade, the boat lady was stunned, stuttering and unable to speak.

It was the child in her arms who widened his eyes and said loudly: "Yes! Thank you General Tianwei! General, can I learn martial arts from you?"

Tan Yushu smiled: "Little Lang, you should study hard."

Remove the pastries and snacks left on the boat, the two wine jars, the carbon stove and the remaining coal, and pass them along the boat.

But when he left, the short knife for slicing fish was also handed over.

"If you can come to the capital one day, whether you are studying or practicing martial arts, you can come to me with this knife."

The child took the dagger with sparkling eyes and nodded vigorously: "General, I will definitely go find you!"

Tan Yushu smiled slightly, turned and left.

After walking away, Chi Li crossed his arms and snorted coldly: "Such a small child also flirts?"

Tan Yushu: ...

"Brother Chi, it's just a matter of disposing of unnecessary things. How can it be teased?"

Humph.

While pulling the boat to the shore, Tan Yushu explained unhurriedly: "If he can really walk to the capital from this fishing boat one day, he will be an extraordinary person. Why don't I make good use of him and cultivate him? If not, The only thing lost is a dagger, so what's the pity?"

"How much is this short knife?"

"Twelve taels of silver."

"You do it yourself, I won't report it to you."

Tan Yushu: ...

"Brother Chi?"
