If someone had changed this matter, he would have gone to find Chu Qing a long time ago. Since there was a mistake in not taking other people's suggestions seriously, then we should make up for it immediately and see if we could seek help.

Unfortunately, Qi Zhizhou was no one else, so he couldn't bear to find Chu Qing, but he also had his own way: call the magistrates of Xingtang County and Huaian County to "collect discussions".

The Youzhi County of Huaian County honestly reported his work to Qi Zhizhou: what he did, how he did it, when it started, and how the results were, and the reports were very detailed.

But Xu Guangze from Xingtang County is not very honest, and his eyes turn are full of bad water.

He told Qi Zhizhou: "Sir, if you want to kill locusts, chickens, ducks and other poultry are more effective than humans. After all, we cannot exchange locusts for food like other prefectures. We don't have that much food to exchange, right?

Like our two counties, chickens and ducks are well raised. Not only do we eat a lot of locusts, but we also have eggs and duck eggs on every table."

After saying this, he said, "Yes, Lord You?" and pulled the other county magistrate You up.

County Magistrate You didn't know what he meant, but the facts were so he nodded in agreement.

The ending of this is that Qi Zhizhou bought chickens and ducks from these two counties, but he didn't want any cubs, but he just wanted adult chickens and ducks and trained them.

Until County Magistrate You took the silver notes from Qi Zhizhou, he still felt that this was fantastic.

Every time Qi Zhizhou summons various counties to "collect discussions", don't they say that they have financial difficulties? Why do you still make money from the state yamen?

Xu Guangze complained to him: "Why are you talking so fast? You can use your brain when quoting. Otherwise, you can wait for me to say it first. This is better, you can get such a affordable price and make less money!"

County Magistrate You was very confused: "Isn't it good to sell it? It allows the people to get benefits earlier. Moreover, they raise more and more chickens, and they are afraid of poultry epidemics."

This was frightened by the chicken plague in Xinlunzhou. It was a death toll. Chengcun and Chengcun died. It set fire to bury it, which made even the poor no longer greedy for a long time.

Xu Guangze was so sorry that he couldn't make a steel: "Can you compare it? Can you compare it? There is nothing in Xinlunzhou, what do we want here? Is there less lime powder? Is it still a bird epidemic? Is it useless to worry about it!

Why don’t you think about it? This year, everyone raises chickens and ducks. They are all from Chu Qing’s credit, but with such a large quantity, what price will Chu Qing recycle it? Can it be as high as it is now?

Now you sell more money and just need to pay back part of the people. The county government can still leave a lot. Isn’t it good? Don’t you need to build roads in your county? Don’t you need to dig canals?"

County Magistrate You was even more confused: "What do you mean, isn't all the money given to the people?"

Xu Guangze didn't know what to say: "You, you...no wonder your son can't beat Chu Qing's son!

All of them are given to the common people? How much does a chicken cost before the disaster? Fifty or sixty cents! How much do you sell now? One hundred and five cents! The difference is one hundred cents!

You gave the price to the common people. How can they read your good things? When Chu Qing came to collect it, could she give it? Is she stupid?

When the people don’t sell, they will just throw them into their hands; if they sell, they are unwilling to accept it. After all, they have sold 150 cents from you. What should they do then?

You can leave the difference here for the county government. What can’t you do when building bridges, roads, and repairing the county government? You don’t have to do anything for corvee, just spend money to hire them to work!

I didn’t spend much money and did a lot of work. In the end, my political achievements were all yours. When the Ministry of Personnel came to evaluate, wouldn’t it be nice to give a good comment?

Besides, locusts have risen everywhere now, and the market price of chickens and ducks is 160 or 70. Some people come to buy them from other places. Although the quantity is not large, the price is indeed there;

You are honest and considerate of Lord Qi. If you give a price of 150 yuan, do you think you can make it well? He may scold us behind his back!

What are you staring at? What can you think of?

In the past, fifty or sixty, but now you say 15, can he control the current market price? He still thinks you cheated him!

Since it is a false statement, why don’t you make more false statements? What is the difference between 15 and 167? Who made him urgent? What did you do earlier?

I tell you, look back, the price when Chu Qing acquired it is definitely not much higher. It would be good if it could maintain the original price, maybe it would be even lower!

Now is such a good time, and you can make a fortune, which will make you less than ten cents! Oh my... my heart hurts so much!"

County Magistrate You thought that his son was not as good as Chu Qing's son.

I can't compare to Chu Qing... Oh no, I haven't even compared to Xu Guangze, how can I compare to Chu Qing? I don't think I am smart, why should my son be smarter than others?

What Xu Guangze said is not difficult to understand at all, but he just didn't expect it.

Moreover, when Lord Qi asked, how could he not answer? He just answered whatever he asked.

But it’s just a little bit. Think from the perspective of Qi Zhizhou, from the perspective of the common people, and from the standpoint of his own county government, and think from the perspective of a few more angles, I really won’t have the answer like today.

Before the disaster, the prices of chickens and ducks have always been low and they are very stable. They have not changed for two or three years.

But at that time, not every family raised a lot of chickens and ducks. This year, there were so many chickens and ducks, so I'm afraid Chu Qing would buy them at a lower price.

In the past, ordinary people had to sell them, and they had to sell them even if they didn’t sell them. Otherwise, every family would be able to keep them, and if they didn’t sell them to Chu Qing, they could still sell them to each other?

No wonder they all became county magistrates. Xu Guangze, who was admitted to the crane at the end of the imperial examination road, was more prosperous than himself, and he became a noble person.

"You deserve to be poor!" Xu Guangze said hatefully in discomfort.

How can I do if I only feel heartache? I have to try to magistrate You’s heart.

"Why didn't you say anything when he asked?" Yu Magistrate You was really heartbroken and regretted: "You speak up, I'll cooperate!"

Xu Guangze: "You speak quickly! Do you stretch him a little? Do you think and make a difficult situation, and stretch him to make a price first. Then talk about various difficulties and keep the price in your own hands. No matter how hard he bargained, it would not be much cheaper. No matter how hard he bargained, he would not be able to make it?!"

The county magistrate You looked displeased: "Well... bargain..."

I really can't do this. He has never done such vulgar things as bargaining people!

Xu Guangze was speechless: "In the future, don't just wave hoes to the old farmer on the ground. Just know how to do it. You can dig the ground for others?

You divide your skills into the streets and alleys to see how others do business, how they shout, and how they bargain!

People's livelihood, people's livelihood, farmers are people, but merchants are not people? Don't mess with those noble people, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, who can do it without them?"

Minsheng, yes. Yu Magistrate accepted it humbly this time: "Well... OK."

Xu Guangze didn't know whether he was happy or disappointed.

Say happy, I taught the son-in-law of the Hanlin Bachelor’s Son-in-law, the third place in the second grade, so happy!

He said it was disappointing, but he had not been satisfied with the lesson yet, so he accepted it humbly, but he was just a few words! He was disappointed!
