As soon as he put the wine, Magistrate Wang heard from outside the tent. His companion said loudly: "Person Li and the others are here."

Magistrate Wang felt a sudden sigh of heart and said quickly: "Just say I'm not... Uh, Xiaoying, why are you standing stupidly? Please invite two generals in."

As soon as he lifted the curtain of the tent, two lieutenants who came to pay money and grain stood in front of the tent with wooden faces, each holding an account book. Magistrate Wang froze in an instant.

The wind was roaring outside, and the blowing leaves fell one after another. Looking at the amount of money and grains listed in the account book, Magistrate Wang's lips shook, and his hair turned white with more than a dozen more worries.

There are so many chores on the river that it seems that there will never be any end.

I just went to the King of Hell for a meeting yesterday. I said a few words about how to welcome the imperial envoy. The most important point I emphasized is that before the imperial envoy comes, the projects in various places must be completed and the ending is beautiful.

If Duke An Guo was the King of Hell, killing stars into his life, then this imperial envoy, Liu Huang and Liu Ziming, was the lump of lump that had become a sperm for thousands of years.

Magistrate Wang passed the Jinshi exam that year and went to the Third Department to work as a construction case. He was fortunate to be a good man in Liu Ziming's hands. As a result, within a month, he didn't realize that he used 23 extra bricks and tiles when repairing the mansion of Duke Anguo, Liu Ziming paid three months of monthly salary.

How much is the twenty-three bricks and tiles worth? He said he couldn't even lose money!

Unlike other officials, Magistrate Wang was poor. His family lived on his salary. As soon as his salary was confiscated, Magistrate Wang had to go everywhere to fight famine. From then on, he heard Liu Ziming's name and his legs became weak. He quickly planned to go to his sect to stay away from the capital. This was a place of failure.

Now that Duke An Guo and Duke Liu are going to gather on top of his head, Magistrate Wang shivered, feeling that the heaven and earth have changed color and the earth has shaken the mountains.

So in terms of money and food, there is no mistake at all.

He has already worked overtime, but he can never finish all these things.

"Person Li, Person Xiao, don't worry about money and food. Please give me the promise you. Come, eat something first, and I will explain it in detail to you. Don't worry, the Duke of the State has an order, at least in our Yongyi Army, those "floating and unlucky" that you imagine will not happen."

Magistrate Wang first gave the two lieutenants to the table, and personally told Lao Du to prepare a few dishes.

But Li Xiaowei didn't sit down and slammed the table and stared at him: "How can you have the heart to eat? Immediately, immediately, now Brother Wang, you will give me what we deserve. I'm very tight, and I really don't have time to have dinner with you."

"I promise my brothers that I can do well in the evening, and my wages will increase by 10% and I will spit and nail them. Then I must keep my word. If I speak like farts, then there will be someone to listen? You promised to allocate money and food at the beginning, but now you can't give it all. If you don't give it, what should I do? Cut the flesh and feed the brothers?"

"You guys who are Shangguan will let you complete the task within a few six months as soon as you touch your mouth. What you said is easy. Why don't you go and command it and see if the half-year construction period is enough?"

"Brother Wang, we're always in love, you can't cheat your brother."

Magistrate Wang smiled and glanced at the wine sent by Gu Xiang on the table. He simply reached out and brought it over to the two of them: "That's definitely not possible, but now the military's expenses are very high, and it's always a priority... Come on, drink."

"Don't talk so much nonsense, I..."

Li Zhengwei's nose twitched, and his mouth and tongue made salivation, "I... just drink a cup, hurry up and prepare all the money and food."

A glass of wine slid from the tip of his tongue into his throat. Li Zhengwei's eyes were slightly frozen, and he felt a fragrance full of his mouth.

Gudu!

He couldn't help but pour another cup.

However, Xiao Xiao had already drunk the third cup quietly.

Magistrate Wang glanced at him, breathed a sigh of relief, quickly called his companion outside the door, and whispered: "Go and bring the third wooden box to the east of my tent."

As he said that, he smiled all over his face: "You two will eat first, I'll handle the official business."

Li Zhengwei hesitated for a moment, but he was no longer so anxious. He just said, "Then, hurry up with my business. Brother, I am really waiting for the rice to be put into the pot. If I can't take back the money and grain, the errand will not be completed in the end... Alas."

Sorrow is on my heart and my mind, and I can't help but drink a glass of wine. Once the wine enters my throat, all the troubles will dissipate like spring breeze and rain.

...

A large cloud suddenly moved from the clear sky.

Master Zhang stood outside the camp of Yongyi Army, staring at the two magpies on the branches.

County Magistrate Zhou walked respectfully to Master Zhang holding the wine jar that had just been warmed up in his hand.

This Taoist Zhang Zhengduo, Zhang Zhengduo, is Mr. Wuwang from Shangqingguan, Longhu Mountain. His senior brother was the famous Mr. Zhenjing, Zhang Zhengsui during the time of the late emperor.

In today's Taoist sect, Master Zhang is highly respected, and even His Majesty now regards him as a guest of honor.

The Zhou family once owed Master Zhang a great favor. When Zhou County Magistrate Zhou's compatriot sister fell to the ground and fainted. It was not good, so it was all up to Master Zhang to be present at the time and rescued his sister with a pill of Shangqingguan's magical medicine, Huichun Pill. The Zhou family immediately prepared a large sum of money as a thank-you gift, but Master Zhang's dragon saw his head and no tail, so he drifted away when he saved the person and disappeared again.

Unexpectedly, Taoist Master Zhang took the initiative to come to him today.

Although Zhou County Magistrate was surprised and did not understand why Taoist Master Zhang wanted to buy the wine delivered by Chu Gu, he certainly could not refuse.

He shook his sleeves and bowed slightly: "Master Taoist..."

Before he finished speaking, the jar of wine in his hand disappeared. County Magistrate Zhou was shocked and looked up and saw Master Zhang holding the jar with his eyes lit up, and he was still muttering something in his mouth, but he didn't know what he was saying.

After a while, Master Zhang took out a waist card from his arms and stuffed it to County Magistrate Zhou: "Let your father take my waist card to Shangqingguan to get money. You are three kilograms of wine, so you should count as a thousand gold. The old Taoist has been tight recently, so he will take advantage of you. If he owe you a favor, he will help your Zhou family do something within his ability in the future."

Zhou County Wei: "..."

After Master Zhang pulled his Taoist boy away, County Magistrate Zhou hesitated and came back to his senses: "A... a thousand gold?"

The Zhou family is rich and has a large population. Life at home is considered a luxury, but the three or five thousand taels of silver are enough to spend in a year.

One thousand gold? Ordinary families will never see so much gold in their lifetime.

He looked up again and wanted to find Taoist Principal Zhang, but he could not see anyone. County Magistrate Zhou felt a little confused. He shook his head and walked to find County Magistrate Wang, intending to go to the river bank with him to take a look.

Zhou County Wei had something in his mind, and he unknowingly entered the tent of Magistrate Wang, his eyes fell on the messy cups and plates, the people lying on the table, and the empty wine jars that fell on the ground.

After a pause, the muscles on Zhou County Magistrate's face twitched: "A thousand gold!"

Magistrate Wang hurriedly packed the account book: "What? Wait for me, I just put these two down."
Chapter completed!
