When Zhao Hu rushed to the county government office eagerly, Zhao Zheng was not at the county government office. He had gone out.
He could only sit in the yamen.
At noon, the government servants and officials came back from outside one after another, but they did not enter the lobby, but went straight to the canteen.
Zhao Zheng and Zhao Erlang came back from outside together. Neither of them glanced at the lobby. While talking, they headed towards the canteen in the side courtyard of the county government office.
Zhao Hu, who was sitting in the lobby, just wanted to stop them, but only their backs were left, and their backs quickly disappeared.
Zhao Hu was silent for a moment, then simply got up and went to look for him.
He was stunned for a moment when he stepped into the side yard. The small yard was full of people.
His elegant and elegant little grandson, who was well-read in poetry and books, was squatting on the ground eating steamed buns with the vulgar and straightforward Erlang in the first house.
Zhao Erlang devoured it himself and urged Zhao Zheng, "Hurry up and eat quickly. I am not active in taking money. What if my brother-in-law misunderstands that the money is not important to us and doesn't give it to us next time?"
It can be said that at present, Zhao Hanzhang has spent all the money she has brought into the treasury to buy seeds, except for the winter relief materials for the victims and some for repairs to the court officials. She is currently preparing to summon the owners of major grain merchants. Persuade them to lend some grain seeds to the court on credit, and allow the people to borrow some seeds from shops on credit in the coming year...
Zhao Zhengdao: "It's okay to withdraw money and eat again."
Although he really dislikes the county government, but...who let this be his grandson's future?
If he wanted to move up, he had to be the county magistrate. Zhao Hu could still tell the difference between what was important and what was important. Zhao Erlang was not that attentive and considerate of Zhao Hu's anger. He approached him and asked curiously, "Seventh Uncle, when you came to the county office, did you give my brother-in-law's money to him?"
Zhao Hu's eyes turned red, he opened and closed his mouth several times, and finally found a soft voice and asked: "Why are you eating like this? It's so rude."
As a result, when they looked up, they saw their grandfather standing at the door gaping at them.
He added: "There are also some meat and eggs stored at home. Bring some more."
Zhao Zheng: "Too busy, no time..."
Zhao Hu nodded, so why don’t you order more?
Afraid that he would not understand, Zhao Hanzhang explained a little more, "He lent the rest to the treasury, and I had the money moved away."
Zhao Erlang's eyes lit up and he asked: "How much did you give?"
Zhao Hu's heart was barely balanced. He was afraid that Zhao Erlang wouldn't understand what he meant, so he nudged him from behind: "You want more, you are my brother-in-law, he doesn't dare to offend you."
Zhao Erlang was happy, pulled Zhao Zheng and left, "Let's go and ask my brother-in-law for money."
"You don't want it. In the end, your sister took the money."
Zhao Hu glanced at the food in their bowls with disgust, "They actually eat pickles. There is no meat. Are there not even vegetables?"
But in the end, he didn’t say anything to tell Zhao Zheng to quit.
Zhao Erlang exclaimed, "My brother-in-law is so rich."
Zhao Hanzhang sighed and said: "Buy seeds, you fool, do you know what it means that if you don't have long-term worries, you will have immediate worries?"
Her major iron mines are still being mined, and the weapons workshop no longer makes weapons, but instead focuses on making agricultural tools.
Zhao Zheng ate faster. He only ate one steamed bun and then stood up, "Let's go."
Naturally, Zhao Hu would not tell anyone about this kind of business secret, but looking at the bright-eyed Zhao Erlang, and then at the poor county government, his heart moved and he said: "Eighty-ninety thousand dollars."
Zhao Zheng was worried, fearing that his next words would be, grandson, stop doing this and go home with your grandfather! Then his servants would knock him out and carry him back.
"We don't have desks and mats," Zhao Erlang, who barely swallowed his steamed buns, explained, "When our county office gets rich, we will buy more tables and chairs. Then we won't be rude."
Zhao Hanzhang said: "It costs money to buy seeds, and it also costs money to make farm tools. Do you know what next year's theme will be?"
Zhao Erlang stuffed his mouth and said vaguely: "You don't want to eat?"
Zhao Erlang has great confidence in Fu Tinghan, "My brother-in-law is very powerful. Many of my sister's problems were solved by him. Now that my sister is short of money, I think my brother-in-law will definitely find a way to solve it. When he makes money
, I will ask him for some more, and the county government will not be short of expenditure."
"Such a county government office doesn't even have a set of desk mats?" Zhao Hu turned around and found that there really wasn't one. He looked at Zhao Zheng and felt even more distressed.
"For large-scale agricultural production, as the court and government, what we have to do is to provide farmers with grain seeds and tools, minus some taxes, and encourage them to farm. Therefore, the grain seeds prepared must be of good quality and large in quantity!"
Zhao Hu paused and muttered: "Not this, not that..."
Zhao Zheng was slightly surprised and stepped forward and asked, "Why is grandpa here?"
Zhao Zheng: "Grandpa, vegetables are more expensive than meat now."
The war ended in the second half of this year, and a large number of refugees and disaster victims have been gathered and resettled. They will spend a year of hunger and cold. The materials for the New Year are all donated by the imperial court. How can there be seeds and farm tools?
These all require help from the court, think about how much money this will cost.
Zhao Erlang opened his mouth in disbelief, "Sister, why do you want so much money? You also took away the money collected by the county government some time ago."
There was a banging sound on the table, and Zhao Hanzhang waited for him to look over before saying: "Only two hundred thousand."
Not to mention the 690,000 yuan that Fu Tinghan brought, even if there were ten more 690,000 yuan, she could spend it all in one day.
"Winter is here, can spring be far behind? After the New Year, the seeds have to be distributed. There are less than two months until the New Year. Am I not allowed to prepare grain seeds in advance?"
Zhao Erlang really wanted to order more, so he asked Zhao Hu seriously, "Seventh Uncle, the things you sent are free of charge, right? The county government has no money."
The weather is cold, and except for the Chinese cabbage stored in the cellar, all vegetables are more expensive than meat.
Although Zhao Zheng was skeptical about this, thinking that Zhao Erlang had taken money from Fu Tinghan now, inferring that it was not impossible in the future.
Zhao Erlang thought that his seventh uncle was right, so he hurried back to the house, ignored Mr. Wang who raised his hand to greet him, ran to Fu Tinghan and said: "Brother-in-law, you have a lot of money, give me 400,000." ."
Zhao Hu felt that all his intentions were focused on him, so he said angrily: "No, I'll give it to you for free."
Zhao Hu said angrily: "Give it!"
Zhao Zheng still ate elegantly, but his speed became faster, "Will he still have it next time?"
To his surprise, Zhao Hu did not let him go home. Instead, he turned around and said to his entourage: "Go back and bring all the tables and mats at home."
Who takes it or not?
Zhao Erlang can still build Luoyang County Government after taking it, and his grandson can live a better life.
The country’s expenses are so huge!
"General, Shen Ruhui and Cao Ping are here." Zhao Hanzhang raised his head and glanced at Zhao Ya who came in to report, nodded and said, "Please wait in the study."
Then he said to Zhao Erlang: "Also, I want to build a dock, and I need more money."
