Chapter 1175 1175: Why not let me farm? (Part 2) [
Asking for a monthly ticket]
There was a shortage of people in the government office, so Shen Tang also asked the Wang family's daughter to take the job.
The latter somehow became a member of the public family.
After hearing the news, the parents of Li and Wang came to inquire about the news.
Shen Tang explained with a smile: "I see that my two daughters are intelligent and talented in literature, so I want her to work as a clerk in the government office. It is just some leisure work, and it will definitely not burden the two daughters."
The head of the Li family said: "The common people do not have this intention. You think that the little girl is her blessing, but I am afraid that she is not suitable for being a female prostitute. I am worried that she has done something wrong and will affect the government."
The parents of the Wang family originally had this worry, but when they heard the parents of the Li family belittle their daughter in this way, they immediately became unhappy.
His eyes widened with anger: "What do you mean by a prostitute? He is just a literary official who writes, why is my son not suitable?"
The parents of the Li family did not expect to be brought down, and they almost burst into anger.
Is this old guy's brain stuffed with shit?
Do you understand what it means to be courteous for nothing, and to be either an adulterer or a thief?
Under normal circumstances, it is normal for new officials to win over local wealthy households, but no one has ever taken the initiative to arrange public jobs for the children of wealthy households! Is this a sign of flattery or a drunkard's intention?
Although civil servants have no real power, they have joined the government after all!
Serve the official bowl and eat the official meal.
Such a good thing comes to your door without any effort?
I don’t even think about whether there is such a good thing in the world!
Hey hey hey, there really is!
Not only does their daughter have a share, but so do they.
Shen Tang kept trying to persuade the parents of the Li family to rest assured, and even asked the two families to meet privately with Queen Wang. Queen Wang's words were more effective than Shen Tang's. After a while, the attitude of the two families changed drastically, and they had no objection to Queen Wang. She has become a civil servant in the government. The reasons given by Queen Wang are also realistic. She will have a son-in-law, or two sons-in-law. If she is still a boudoir woman, how will she be able to support her two parents a hundred years later? Two adopted sons-in-law and covetous clan relatives?
When I talk about being scared, I can’t help but shed tears.
The two ladies held their daughters in distress and hugged each other, feeling aggrieved. The two fathers sighed again and again, and they summed it up with each other. They had to admit that their daughters' worries were justified. After all, the husband-in-law was a man, so they didn't know what a man was like?
It's okay if the son-in-law has a conscience, he just needs to be obedient and eat soft food.
What if the adopted son-in-law is as traitorous as he is loyal?
The old ones pretended to be human beings when they were alive, but they kicked off their legs and revealed their true faces?
A son-in-law who is too cowardly cannot protect his daughter, a son-in-law who is too capable can easily harm his daughter, and there are also a group of relatives coveting his daughter. The daughter is in too much danger. Finding two sons-in-law to check and balance each other may not be effective. If the daughter suppresses If you can live with someone...
The two fathers looked at each other.
This was accepted by default.
At the same time, it also acquiesced to Shen Tang's calculation.
They are not doing good deeds, they must have some agenda.
In fact, Shen Tang didn't have many plans. If it goes well, it can benefit the two families. She looked at the two parents who came together and greeted the parents of the Li family with a smile: "Your kindness to my little girl will never be forgotten by ordinary people." .If you have anything to do, please give me instructions."
The head of the Wang family looked at him blankly.
This rhythm is wrong. Why don't you try it out first?
Shen Tang smiled gently and harmlessly, and said confidently: "There is no need to send anything. I just want to benefit the common people and let everyone live a good life in peace and contentment."
The parents of the Li family asked: "I wonder what your plans are?"
Shen Tang's smile faded and he sighed deeply.
"To be honest with you two, I came from the royal capital with my retainers, actually to avoid the fight. The things above are getting bigger and bigger. I'm looking at it coldly. I'm afraid the situation is not going well." She said. The two of them had a heart-to-heart attitude, and the two of them listened loudly. They did have some savings, but the little money they invested in the warlord struggle could not even make a sound.
Doesn't the other party want to control their borrowing money and food?
It's called borrowing, but it's actually robbery.
Just as the two of them were sweating secretly, Shen Tang's words exceeded their expectations - Shen Tang didn't want their food or their money, but just wanted to use the connections between the two families. She was in the northwest There is an outlet in a certain place, and the two companies can go there to develop new markets, and the profit can be 50% to 50%.
"Northwestern Kang Country?"
Shen Tang nodded: "Yes."
"The two places are so far apart, so there are so many dangers when doing business along the way. Even if the profits are considerable, the risks are also great."
The parents of the Wang family are more concerned about the content of the business.
"Can I take the liberty to ask, what is the way?"
Shen Tang smiled and said: "It's just salt, grain, cloth and silk."
Qiguo is not a big country in the central continent. Due to geographical reasons, Qiguo can only produce a small amount of pool salt within the territory, and most of it relies on imports. In addition to official imports, the state even encourages merchants to purchase salt from various countries, and controls the situation in this area. Not strict.
The problem is that other countries are also short of salt.
Stable channels for purchasing salt are not easy to establish.
If it can be done, the profits will be very considerable.
The parents of the two families almost stared out of their eyes and breathed quickly: "Are you telling the truth? There is indeed a lot of salt in Kang State in the northwest, but Kang State has strict control, and there is no way to get much... You see Look, how many avenues do you have?"
Shen Tang waved to the two of them.
The two of them approached cautiously.
She lowered her voice: "Shaoqing Sinong of Kang State is a relative of my family, and the salt pond supervisor under him is her confidant. It is not difficult to get a share of salt blocks. The salt of Kang State in the northwest is famous for its good salt, even in the royal capital. The food of that group of people is also slightly inferior.”
Sinong Shaoqing is Shen Zhi.
In view of the fact that she is highly capable and the responsibilities of Sinong Temple overlap with those of the Ministry of Accounts, Shen Zhi, a young minister, does not have a lot of work pressure, and her false reputation outweighs her real power. However, the outside world does not know these inside stories, so there is no problem in deceiving the two of them. .
The two parents said in unison: "Seriously?"
Shen Tang: "How can this be false? If you don't believe it, I can write a handwritten letter and you can have someone verify the authenticity. However, if you have concerns and refuse to agree, I won't force you. Just find someone later."
The parents of the Li family hurriedly stopped Shen Tang from continuing.
Cold sweat broke out: "The common people naturally believe you."
So, don’t ask anyone else about this first.
The two found an excuse to leave and went back to discuss things carefully.
Shen Tang is not afraid of their investigation.
It's strange that her handwritten letter cannot be mixed with refined salt.
Shen Tang was planning the way to go next step by step in his mind, and Gu Deqing's voice came from outside the house: "Is everything done?"
Gu De said: "The people have almost gathered together."
If you want to strengthen your power, you must recruit soldiers and horses. Based on the ranger groups he conquered along the way, Shen Tang raided bandit dens everywhere and barely had a private army. These people are easy to get, but difficult to raise. Not only must he To support them, we have to continue to recruit people. Shen Tang can only find ways to get some money from other places and create jobs to settle these troops.
Otherwise, if the news leaks out, it will be wiped out before it develops.
Shen Tang must find a way to hide these people.
It is very suitable to do business with these two companies.
These people are all in their name, so the outside world won't suspect them, and the two families won't risk their lives to expose them. It's a great deal.
??????55.??????
Their only daughter is in their hands.
Shen Tang said: "That's good."
Try to get 5,000 soldiers and horses within one year.
With five thousand soldiers and horses, it would be easy to take advantage of the chaos and annex the territory next door. The patron saint of Qi State, the 20th grade Chehou, is already dead. No matter how tight the royal family is, they can't stand it. There is no impermeable wall in the world. This thunder If it explodes, Qiguo will be destroyed!
Shen Tang is now waiting for an opportunity.
"Yourong, do you want to go and have a look?"
Gu De didn't understand for a moment: "What are you looking at?"
Shen Tang said: "Look at me."
She is really not bald, let alone bald.
Hey, it takes time to make a wig realistic, so her wig is still in the production stage. She didn’t want others to point fingers at her baldness, so she just shaved her head. Not to mention, a bald head is cool. The disadvantage is probably that the scalp will be a little hot if you are too exposed to the sun. Shen Tang's proposal was rejected by Gu De.
He said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to get free time."
Shen Tang asked: "So busy?"
I really haven’t seen Gu De much in recent days.
"Busily contacting my former classmates to see if I can find some people to come over." Ever since he knew the true identity of his master, Gu De was a little worried. The stage of starting from scratch is undoubtedly the best time to cultivate feelings and consolidate interests. This person in front of him is already The advantages of being the overlord of the northwest are obvious, and the disadvantages are also obvious to all - no matter how hard he and Zi Kuan catch up, it will not be easy to gain a foothold.
For the current plan, I can only contact more classmates.
Try to produce some results in the shortest possible time.
In the future, when the two parties merge, our own side will not be left alone.
Gu De did not express these thoughts explicitly, but Xia Houyu understood them and acquiesced in his behavior. Shen Tang saw through it without saying anything: "So students from Quqing Academy? Will they be willing to come?"
Gu Dedao: "My lord, please don't belittle yourself."
Not to mention the size of Kang State, even the current vest can be regarded as a local official. With a stable place to stay, it is not difficult to recruit a few classmates from common people. Gu De privately went to inquire about the situation in Kang State and the appointment of officials It is very different from other areas and has a fatal attraction for students who are restricted by their background. Coupled with Gu De's endorsement, recruiting people is simple.
Of course, Gu De did not expose Shen Tang's real vest. He just told his classmates that she did not know her identity, and by the way, he drew a picture of "five thousand soldiers and horses under his tent" for them. Gu De's eyebrows stretched, and he said with a smile: " Nine people have responded so far.”
Except for the two who said it was too far away to serve their parents, the others said they wanted to come and see Shen Tang, and then decide whether to stay or not. Calculating the time, replies from other people should be on the way. Shen Tang listened. Wan was stunned: "So many?"
Gu De didn't understand: "How many?"
There are only a few people here.
Shen Tang raised his forehead and said, "I didn't get this kind of treatment before."
Qi Shan also sent a group message to his circle of friends, but a revenge-seeking Liao Jia appeared, and everyone else ignored him. A typical example is He Shu. He Shu disliked Qi Shan's protagonists as short-lived ghosts.
If He Shu had come back then and brought a congratulatory letter, where would the battle in Shangnan County have happened? Shen Tang could have knocked Wu Xian's brains out earlier. Because he prayed for kindness, Shen Tang always thought that it was difficult to win over someone.
Shen Tang spoke vaguely, and Gu De drew conclusions based on the context.
"It seems that that colleague is not very popular."
He is still writing the letter now. If Zi Kuan, who is more popular, also comes forward, he is at least 80% sure that he can call people over. Even people who already have a stable place to go will be willing to come over and give it a try. Gu De did not do this, but I don’t want Shen Tang to misunderstand.
It is not good to have too many people from Quqing Academy.
It is easy for the boss to create a sense of urgency to evacuate her.
Shen Tang: "...Ahem, Yuan Liang's popularity..."
In a sense——
It's good to have so many enemies.
Shen Tang thought she had a deep understanding of "good popularity", until she saw someone dragging his family and family across two countries to join Gu De and Xia Houyu, and she was dumbfounded. After hearing her self-introduction, this dear friend was originally He is still a county magistrate!
No, do all your classmates play like this?
What's even more shocking is that this person was not called here by Gu De.
Yes, it was not Gu De who persuaded others to come.
To be precise, one of the people who had to serve his parents felt guilty, so he wrote a letter to a good friend and strongly persuaded him to give it a try. After receiving the letter, the good friend hesitated for two days, packed up his belongings, and took care of his family along the way. The dust is coming.
When he came, he complained that Gu De was not interesting enough.
Why do you only write to others and not to yourself?
Gu De was helpless: "You have finally settled down, but I can't let you leave your homeland and go to a place you are not familiar with."
A good friend pretended to be angry: "You are out of sight now."
When he saw Xia Houyu, he was smiling happily one second, and his face was heavy the next. It was no secret that Xia Houyu had been tortured by disembowelment, but now he had a literary monogram again, and he was surrounded by literary spirit. This is thought-provoking: "Zikuan, you
——”
Xia Houyu waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to say more.
My good friend also understood, looked around and said, "Where is our new master? Quickly, give me an introduction."
Xia Houyu said: "This is it."
A good friend looked down and saw a bald head.
The bald man raised his head, revealing a face that was obviously that of a woman.
good friend:"……"
Is it too late for him to regret going back to being a county magistrate?
It's impossible for Xiahou Zikuan and Gu Yourong to play with themselves, right?
The students of Quqing Academy are probably like sweet potatoes. When you shovel it down, a bunch of them pop up. The configuration is also balanced in civil and military affairs. Not only are there people with families, there are even people with private troops No. 100, which can be regarded as a small place.
There is a local rich man. They are willing to come because of the face of Gu De and Xia Houyu. If Shen Tang cannot convince them, they will leave anyway.
Shen Tang is very confident in this.
However, she needs to examine these people first.
These people are also inspecting Shen Tang.
The mutual inspection between the two parties has not yet yielded results, but the appearance of a book has caused a thousand waves. A young man dressed as a literary and historical figure held up a book in dragon scales: "Come and see what I got!"
Shen Tang looked up and saw something familiar.
He raised his eyebrows slightly.
Isn't this the biography of famous ministers and celebrities that was released in Kangguo in the first ten days of this month? How long has it been, and it has already spread to Qiguo?
In this era when tablets are the main force, pure paper books are still relatively rare, let alone luxuriously bound books with dragon scales. Few people present have seen them. Everyone was attracted, and Xia Houyu opened it and saw
The homepage was startling.
Some people were shocked and murmured: "What kind of anti-article is this?"
[Princes, generals, and ministers would rather have the seed!]
The name signed in the preface is Kang Guo Shen Tang.
Others don't know Shen Tang's true identity yet, but Xia Houyu and Gu De do. Seeing the signature, the two of them looked at the Lord outside the crowd with a tacit understanding. The latter smiled and waved, indicating that they should continue reading and advance.
Get to know colleagues you’ve never met.

The plot of the horse-catching story between the Wang and Li families in the previous picture was adapted from an ancient novel, so that’s why Tang Mei told the Wang lady that the Yan Ling Hua she read was written by her own family.
