Shen Tang, who was listening, quietly raised his hand like a primary school student.
Qi Shan and the other three watched her strange movements in silence.
Chu Yao asked with concern: "Is Wulang uncomfortable somewhere?"
Did you see anything dirty?
Otherwise, why greet someone in a deserted place?
Because in this world, raising hands is more equivalent to "waving goodbye" than "I have something to say."
Shen Tang realized later, put down his right hand in embarrassment, and said humbly: "I want to say that I know how to judge whether the tax bank team is genuine or not."
Qi Shan raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
With great interest: "Shen Xiaolangjun, please speak."
Shen Tang: "This question is simple. We need to find out some information first - how many copper coins, how many silver nuggets, and how many gold nuggets are there in this batch of tax money? How much do they weigh in total? How many carriages and horses are needed to transport them? The same size Gold, silver, and copper vary in weight. There is no need for a specific number. Just make a rough estimate and then look at the weight of the wheel and the speed of the horse. You will know whether it is true or false."
Even if the fake team is filled with sand and gravel, the weight is still a flaw.
This is indeed a relatively simple and effective method.
but--
Gong Shuwu: "I'm afraid you have to read the account books to know this."
Even if Qishan and Qi Shan had some connections, they would not be able to access such confidential content, and they would have to find another way.
On the contrary, Chu Yao thought this was very simple.
"We don't need to look at the account books. We only need to look through the county records from previous years. We can know the harvest in good years and the harvest in bad years, and then compare the situation in the previous three years. As for other tax items, we also take approximate figures, but..."
When he said that, Qishan had already started to calculate something.
After a while, the contents of the paper were spread out for the three people to see.
He said: "Not bad at all."
Shen Tang didn't understand and didn't feel anything after seeing it, but Chu Yao and Gong Shuwu had their own reactions. Chu Yao's eyes flashed with a hint of ridicule, while Gong Shuwu saw veins twitching on his forehead and gritted his teeth.
Chu Yao raised questions: "Zheng Qiao attacked Xin State, and Sibao County was one of the first counties to be conquered. After that, he allowed his soldiers to loot and plunder everywhere. The people were in dire straits and have not recovered yet. How can we collect so much tax money? Have to come up?"
"You don't understand the Sheriff of Sibao County." When mentioning his enemies, Qi Shan smiled disdainfully and said, "This person is very strong by nature, and the most intolerable thing is losing. In order to please Zheng Qiao and to show his achievements, he paid The tax amount will only be more or less than in previous years. Shen Xiaolangjun and I traveled all the way to Sibao County, and along the way we heard about many unheard-of taxes, all of which were added privately."
Shen Tang looked confused.
She asked: "Is there any?"
"have."
"How could I not know?"
Qi Shan rolled his eyes and said indifferently: "Who asked Mr. Shen Xiaolang to set up a stall in the market and sell green plum candy cakes whenever he had time? He would make those girls tremble with his words. He would just patronize them. You’re just messing around with women, where do you have any extra thoughts?”
Fortunately, Shen Xiaolangjun is still young.
If I were older, my dear, how many peach blossom debts would I incur, and my career would be paved with romantic deeds.
For a moment, Gong Shuwu and Chu Yao both had similar scenes in their minds, and cast incomprehensible looks at Shen Tang.
Chu Yao did not doubt the authenticity of Qi Shan's words.
Wulang's mouth is really sweet. Regardless of the gender, he always boasts when he opens his mouth. He is enthusiastic and talkative. In just a few words, he becomes as familiar as a family member.
Shen Tang: "...your words sound too bitter."
What do you mean she is flirting with women???
Was this because she was complaining that she was so close to the same sex that she stole his limelight, causing the group of young ladies and young wives not to look at him favorably?
She worked hard to get out of singleness even though she was single, why should she blame her?
Chu Yao coughed twice and brought back the lost topic, hoping that these two people would remember that they were having a serious "tax robbery seminar" and not just chatting. He said: "With the charter, all that's left is Deployment, where should we lay out our ambush?”
Qishan and the three of them each expressed their own opinions and tried their best to perfect the plan, while Shen Tang occasionally checked (inserted) omissions (sections) and filled (hit) gaps (excuses).
By the time it was completely over, the sun was already high above our heads.
Shen Tang asked privately: "Really, there is no need to find a few more reliable helpers? Since Yuan Liang has connections, there must be some available."
"Young Li, you know, 'You can only plan with a few but not with a lot of people; if you plan with a lot of people, you will be defeated'?"
If there are too many people, secrets will be leaked easily and the benefits will be divided. Compared with increasing the risk by recruiting more people to cooperate, Qishan would rather take the risk more and have four people take it all. The same trap, he only needs to fall into it once.
Shen Tang saw that he had made up his mind about what to do.
Looking at Shen Tang's brisk pace, Qi Shan sighed for some reason, teasing Su Shang, who was lying in his arms with her belly exposed and stretching her whole body, and murmured: "I hope I can get my wish this time."
Meow~~~~
Su Shang gently nibbled Qi Shan's finger with the tip of his teeth. The force was very small, not painful, and slightly itchy. He smiled and took the finger away.
"Do you also think Mr. Shen Xiaolang can do it?"
Without the target to play with, Su Shang raised his head and looked at Qi Shan.
He was meowing and meowing, as if he was accusing him.
Qi Shan had no choice but to hand over his sleeve.
"For you to play with."
Su Shang found a new toy and tugged at his sleeves to climb up. The diligent and hardworking figure on the back looked very familiar, which made Qishan slightly purse his lips. After a while, a soft sigh disappeared in the air.
【Sophora Preface.】
He was about to go back to the room to get some dried fish.
Wen's heart trembled slightly, and a sense of crisis came after him.
He suddenly dodged sideways.
Boom!
An arrow carrying a piece of paper was inserted deep into the wooden pillar.
An hour later.
Shen Tang woke up at noon and found a lonely child lying at the door. Su Shang was staring at its own tail for a moment. From time to time, he would stretch out his paws to pull at it. If he couldn't catch the tail, he would continue to stare, waiting for the next move. If the opportunity comes, if it is caught, it will meow horribly in fear, jump up on the spot, and the cat hair all over its body will explode.
Had a great time.
"Why are you the only one? Where is Qi Yuanliang?" Shen Tang bent down and picked up Su Shang. Qi Shan was so tired in the first two days that he carried this "bride" hired for "Happiness" wherever he went. , are you willing to leave it here as a cat now? You are not afraid of running around and getting lost.
Naturally, Su Shang cannot understand human speech.
He was also squirming restlessly in Shen Tang's arms.
She had no choice but to put it back in Qishan's room. It was better to harm Qishan than to get lost or be bullied by other wild cats.
Not only Qishan was not there, Chu Yao was not there either.
As for Gong Shuwu?
Shen Tang was not familiar with him.
Bored, she went out to sell wine again.
This time I chose a special place.
The street entrance is less than 100 meters away from the central county office of Xiaocheng.
There will definitely be no more accidents this time!
With a clang, she inserted the "wine" sign into the mud with one hand.
There are more than a dozen round-bellied wine jars lined up on the benches, with hands folded around the neck, legs crossed, wearing a sun hat, leaning back, leaning against the wooden cart of the stall owner next to him - the stall owner After accepting her money, I didn't mind being relied on like this.
No business came to my door for quite a while.
The stall owner smiled and said: "The little lady is born with a beautiful face. If she is willing to shout a few times, maybe there will be business."
Shen Tang said: "Jiang Taigong is fishing, and those who wish will take the bait."
She sells wine in person, so she buys it by chance.
The stall owner didn't understand and just smiled.

The cold was a bit severe, and I also had a runny nose. I couldn't feel energetic the whole day, and I felt like I was going to miss my full time.
There is still a chapter late, and the chapter I owe will probably be owed for another day.
