"Let me tell you, let me tell you!" Caiyue volunteered, "Master, I sent people to keep an eye on these things. I know better than Suyue."
"Caiyue!" Suyue was a little troubled by Caiyue's size.
Mu Jieyu didn't care, but waved to Su Yue, "No need to restrain her, just let her speak."
"Master, please don't indulge her too much. She might be able to go to the house one day to unveil the tiles!" Su Yue and Cai Yue have not been in contact with Mu Jieyu for a long time. Su Yue, who has a rigorous personality, studied under Bai Wei and naturally has a lot of temper.
Following Bai Wei, Caiyue was trained by Bai Qian, so her temperament is a bit out of the ordinary.
"You are jealous that I am more popular with the master than you are." Caiyue stuck out her tongue at Suyue and reported to Mu Jieyu respectfully, "Master, you asked me to keep an eye on the Suiyang County Prison.
After watching for several days, there was no movement. Yesterday, I sent people from the village to sneak in. In the evening, I sent news that the prison was recruiting strong men to dig rocks. If I dig for one day, I will send a hundred coins to his family! The slave will verify it.
However, it is indeed true. Many families have received subsidies. This is why more and more people are running to jail. Not only in Suiyang County, but also in the entire Chongyang Prefecture. It is a private order to investigate.
If you are very strict, the government officials will personally go to your home to investigate the people you recruit, and they will be more attentive than investigating the case."
"A hundred taels of silver a day?" Mu Jieyu's dark eyebrows slightly raised, "It's higher than the imperial court recruiting young men to build roads! That's three taels of silver in a month. A farmer can save money if he goes out and chews it in a year.
Three taels of silver is not easy, but it is a big deal."
"That's right." Caiyue nodded, "It's a pity that the people arranged by the slave have not been recruited. The trick is still unknown. Master, rest assured that the slave will definitely speed up the manpower."
"It's not urgent." Mu Jieyu shook his head and said, "This matter is a bit mysterious. Since they are so cautious, we should also be more careful. There are certainly people who are more urgent than us about this matter, but are there other things?"
"There is also something fishy about Master Qiu's birthday celebration. My servant also found out something fishy." Su Yue thought for a moment and said, "According to my investigation, the uncle of the Qiu family has too close contact with the bureaucrats who came to celebrate his birthday. My servant always feels that there is a relationship between them.
There seems to be some kind of deal, but the other party is extremely alert, and no servant can get in and confirm the suspicion in his mind."
"By the way, the master asked me to investigate the Qiu family. If I don't investigate, I won't know. After the investigation, I was really shocked." Caiyue said suddenly, "I found out that there are some people with some real power in the six counties of Chongyang.
The bureaucrats are all related by marriage to the Qiu family, and most of the wealthy families in Chongyang Mansion are also related to the Qiu family. There are so many daughters from the Qiu family's side branches!"
"The Qiu family was everyone in the previous dynasty. It has been prosperous for about a hundred years. It is understandable that the family is large." Mu Jieyu said lightly, with a smile on his lips, "But this Qiu family can hold all the concubine branches and side branches in their hands.
, so as to use them to expand their power, the ability of the Qiu family cannot be underestimated!"
"Master, what do you mean the Qiu family is going to do? Make the entire Chongyang Mansion look like the Qiu family's world!" Caiyue said in confusion with her delicate eyebrows furrowed.
Mu Jieyu lifted a cup of tea from the table beside him and took a sip. His eyes were as clear and quiet as the water moon, and through the heat rising from the teacup, he looked at Caiyue with a hazy look.
: "Didn't you already tell them what they are going to do?"
"Let me tell you, let me tell you!" Caiyue volunteered, "Master, I sent people to keep an eye on these things. I know better than Suyue."
"Caiyue!" Suyue was a little troubled by Caiyue's size.
