After Ren Pingsheng read the invitation, he threw it aside and stood up to greet the guests.
"Wu Tuanlian, please come in."
Ren Pingsheng invited a thin man about forty years old with a goatee and wearing a loose round collar collar into the main room.
"Picturesque, serve tea."
Ren Pingsheng called Ruhua.
"Mr. Ren, you're welcome."
Wu Tuanlian lifted up his robe and sat down: "I haven't congratulated Mr. Ren yet. I have made a fortune every day in Ningxiang Zhai. I really envy others.
My wives and concubines are very fond of each other, and I also contributed to the money Mr. Ren earned."
I admire the young master's strategy and development plan even more.
They help the county government collect taxes, serve people, and provide peace of mind, which saves the county a lot of trouble. But with one more level, there is an extra layer of locusts lying on the people to suck blood. Although it is good for grassroots governance, it is not good for the entire Jing Dynasty.
That said, it does more harm than good.
The meal has to be eaten one bite at a time, the road has to be walked step by step, and you have to ride a donkey to look at the ledger, just wait and see."
"Oh."
"These greedy bitches!"
Ren Pingsheng picked up an apple on the table and took a bite, his eyes full of expectations for the future.
The more Xiaowan thought about it, the angrier she became.
These two families are very powerful in Qingcheng Town, and sometimes they even dare not listen to what the town government says.
Wu Tuanlian smiled and secretly cursed in his heart for not being polite.
When Ren Pingsheng heard this, the smile on his face did not diminish at all, but became even brighter: "What Wu Tuanlian said is true, and I agree very much.
"Really give them 20 taels of silver every month?"
"Bang!"
Liujiacun has a Wolf Gang background, and Mr. Ren somehow got involved with the Qingcheng Escort Agency.
When people are still weak, hiding and scratching their teeth and enduring is a choice they have to make.
If it weren't for the support and care of the leader of the Wolf Gang, Wu Tuanlian would not even come to visit him in person, and the team of government officials would bring a lot of trouble to Ningxiangzhai.
Wu Tuanlian looked at Ren Pingsheng, remained silent for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Ren's sincerity, I will report it to the mayor, and wish Mr. Ren a prosperous business."
Nowadays, living corpses are everywhere outside. In accordance with the instructions of the county government, our Qingcheng Town has established a team training in order to protect the town. However, food, training, exercises, and killing corpses all consume money. Mr. Ren can be in a safe environment
Doing business is also thanks to the team training in the town.
The sound of the tea cup falling on the table was a little loud, and Ren Pingsheng looked at Wu Tuanlian: "I like it when the mayor thinks of me when something happens, but the mayor really thinks highly of me.
If you make money in Qingcheng Town, you must also support the development and construction of the town."
"The town mayor and town government office are not the first-level government offices of the Jing Dynasty. They are products of the chaotic political ecology in the past few years. They are authorized by the county, recommended by the local gentry, and promoted by the county. These are
The people themselves represent the gentry class.
Wu Tuanlian's face looked a little cold at that moment: "The mayor and I like Mr. Ren coming to Qingcheng Town to settle down and do business, but I am not happy about Mr. Ren being so modest.
Look, when we have land and people with power, the town will probably return the 20 taels of silver in full.
Qingcheng Town is not only the mayor’s Qingcheng Town, but also everyone’s Qingcheng Town. As a Qingcheng Town person, you must have a sense of ownership.
The development of a city cannot be separated from the joint efforts of the masses. Only if we work together and unite as one, can we promote better, faster and stronger development of Qingcheng Town."
After sending Wu Tuanlian away, Ren Pingsheng, who returned to the main room, couldn't help but curse.
Moreover, I heard that Mr. Ren is still asking someone to buy land, so we have to rely on the militiamen trained in the town for protection."
"But, who doesn't know that the regiment training in the town is a tool of the mayor and the others, and the militia quota of 300 people is probably not even 30 people. As Wu Tuanlian said nicely, if something happens, what will happen?
You can count on going to the town for group training!
After saying that, Wu Tuanlian stood up straight, cupped his hands and left.
A small shop in Ningxiangzhai only had a few dozen taels of silver left a month. The mayor asked me to take 50 taels of silver to drive me out of Qingcheng Town.
There is no need to expect anything from the conduct of these people.
Wu Tuanlian pondered for a moment, then put on an unattractive smile on his face and said: "Mr. Ren understands justice well.
Ren Pingsheng sighed softly: "Oh, Wu Tuanlian doesn't know something. The soap from Ningxiangzhai costs a lot. I only earn an errand fee from it. A piece of soap costs 500 yuan, and I only earn a few yuan."
It’s just money.”
These 20 taels of silver should be regarded as a loss of wealth and avoidance of disaster."
"Wu Tuanlian is right."
They have the nerve to use this as their name to collect money from us."
A group of bastards from the village, if it weren't for the support of the Wolf Gang, why would they need to come to the door in person!
By visiting in person, he had already given himself enough face, yet he actually looked at him and used words to excuse himself.
And Xiao Wan, after this incident, also understood what the young master meant when he said that if you have money but no power, you will eat fish on the chopping board.
Ren Pingsheng said seriously.
Wu Tuanlian's expression couldn't help but be startled, and then he realized that the person in front of him was definitely not as simple as a mud-legged guy from the village. His words were more official than the county magistrate, and better than the town mayor.
Seeing Ren Pingsheng's smiling expression, there was no change at all because of his cold expression and direct words. The smile was sincere and cordial, as if he was part of the same family.
Ren Pingsheng picked up the teacup, blew the foam in the teacup, and said softly.
When Wu Tuanlian saw that Ren Pingsheng had not expressed his position, he cursed in his heart and directly said: "What the town means is that Mr. Ren will give 50 taels of silver every month to sponsor the construction of the group training.
Xiaowan asked with an angry face.
I am not just asking for money from Mr. Ren, but all the businesses in the town will come up with money, and Lian Xiang in the county is also here to support the group training."
The four people brought out from Liujia Village have now found their own positions under Ren Pingsheng.
Wu Tuanlian suddenly realized that this person was not so easy to deal with!
"After all, it is in the name of the town government. We are new here, and our foundation is not stable. Others have many ways to stumble us.
In this way, after all, team training is a major event that benefits the country and the people, and protects the environment and the people. It is a good thing, but it is also a difficult task. I am not a person who does not know how to praise someone. Now that the mayor has found me, I will definitely support the mayor to protect the environment.
For the cause of Anmin, you can spend 20 taels of silver, which can be regarded as a contribution to the safety of Qingcheng Town."
After Ren Pingsheng sat down, although he was angry, his mood was not affected at all.
Liu Qiang searched for available people every day. Liu Shu was specifically responsible for the operation of two shops on Ping'anfang Street. While Lao Liu was in contact with Huang Yuanwai, he continued to collect information on surrounding land sales.
Ren Pingsheng, on the other hand, spent his free time, eating, practicing boxing, getting massages, and listening to music every day.
After taking the medicated bath, the soreness and pain caused by Ren's daily boxing sessions were greatly alleviated, and the time spent practicing boxing was greatly increased.
