The two girls always spoke freely, but Sister Lin's face turned red with embarrassment. Wang Xian looked sideways at her and saw that Sister Lin's face was as red as ruby. She was so delicate that she really wanted to touch her.
Bundle.
He had the courage to secretly stretch out his paw under the table and hold Sister Lin's little hand. Sister Lin's delicate body was shocked, but in front of her parents-in-law and brother-in-law, she didn't dare to show any abnormality, so she could only hold back her shame and let him
Hold.
Wang Xian was secretly happy that he succeeded and played with Sister Lin's soft and boneless little hand. How could he be willing to let go? He actually kept holding it until after the meal...
But it was painful for Sister Lin, who was ashamed and scared, with a hint of sweetness, and bursts of ecstasy. When Wang Xian let go and stood up, she suddenly felt empty, her legs were so weak that she couldn't stand up.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Wang Xian asked with concern.
Lin Qing'er bit her red lips tightly, glanced at him hatefully, and muttered: "It doesn't matter, the wine is too strong."
"Mom, I'll take my sister back to the house." Wang Xian went to help her, but his mother said: "Qing'er's weight is just for Yinling. You can carry your brother back!"
Only then did Wang Xian realize that he was teasing Sister Lin and didn't see that the elder brother over there was already drunk. He had to pick up Wang Gui and carry him back to the room.
On the way to the wing, Wang Gui hugged his neck and cried bitterly: "Brother, Erlang, brother, I'm sorry for you. In fact, I scolded you behind your back a lot, especially after Cuilian ran away from home, I didn't want to
Seeing you..." He hugged him hard and said, "You are so good to me, but my brother is scolding you behind your back. I am really not a human being, and I am not worthy of being your brother. Wuwu, I will call you brother from now on...
"
Wang Xian had no choice but to smile bitterly: "If you don't scold me, you really have a snotty nose." After struggling to get him to the east room, Hou quickly opened the door, and the two of them took off Wang Gui's clothes and tucked them into bed. Wang Xian was about to leave.
, was pulled back by Wang Gui and said: "I will repay the debt you owe. I have twenty strings here..."
Although Mr. Hou hates giving help when the time is right, he likes to add icing on the cake. He actually smiled heartbrokenly and said: "Yes, second uncle, I still have more than a hundred taels, so let's pay off the debt first if we are in a hurry."
"No, you will have a lot of expenses in the future, and you will need money to run the workshop. Don't worry about me, I have my own way." Wang Xian said with a smile.
"Look at my brother, he is holding a lantern and can't find anywhere!" Wang Gui was lying on the bed and said loudly: "Cuilian, you were really blind back then..."
"Yes, I'm blind." Hou lost all his temper and followed Wang Gui.
"Stop it, don't mention this again." Wang Xian smiled, closed the door and went out, going straight to the west wing, but was rejected...
"Sister, open the door." Wang Xian called the door in a low voice, but no one answered. After a while, Yin Ling poked her head out of the main room and said, "Sister is asleep."
"I'm sleeping, who bolted the door?" Wang Xian glared.
"Then who knows?" Yin Ling made a face and said, "Maybe he is sleepwalking."
"Fuck you..." Wang Xian understood. This was because Sister Lin was afraid that she would do something embarrassing in her excitement, which would make her unable to hold her head high in front of her parents-in-law.
"Hey, there's no place to sleep, right?" Yin Ling gloated.
"Hmph..." Wang Xian whispered: "Look at how I get in." After speaking, he raised his voice and said: "Yeah, there is no place to sleep, so I have to go to Xiao Qinhuai for one night."
Then she silently gestured towards Yin Ling, "One, two, three, four...". Before she could count to ten, Sister Lin, who was "drunk", opened the door with a red face.
Wang Xian made a victory gesture towards Yin Ling and stepped into Sister Lin's boudoir. Unexpectedly, Sister Lin stepped out over there.
"Go in and sleep, Yin Ling and I will squeeze in..." Sister Lin shrugged her little nose in protest, then took Yin Ling's arm and entered the main room.
Seeing the door slamming shut, Wang Xian smacked his lips. Really, if you escaped the first grade of junior high school, how could you escape the fifteenth grade? When he entered the wing, he saw that fortunately Sister Lin hadn't taken away the quilt yet. He was immediately relieved.
I took off my clothes and got in, smelled the girl's body fragrance, and fell into a fragrant dreamland.
In his sleep, he and Sister Lin were busy playing in the water like two lotuses, two horned water chestnuts, and colorful mandarin ducks...
When I woke up in the morning, I saw that it was broken and had been thrown into my grandma's house. So I didn't eat breakfast, didn't say hello, and ran away...
.
After returning to the Yamen and having breakfast, Wang Xian's first thing was to ask Qin Shou to find a few craftsmen to repair the yard assigned to him as soon as possible.
Qin Shou took the key and went over to take a look. It was a small courtyard with rooms on three sides. It was empty, with no furniture. The doors and windows were worn out, and the interior walls were peeling off. They had to find a masonry and carpenter to make major repairs. Qin Shou saw this
If we think we are right, this must be an opportunity for us to be filial.
So he went back to the house and inquired about where he could find a suitable craftsman. Everyone heard the music and knew the elegant meaning, so you hired the carpenter, and I went to find the bricklayer. He bought tables and chairs, and I bought beds... After a while, the book that lifted the house was found.
If you do it, all the expenses will be divided up.
Wang Xian didn't hear such a big commotion, and Shuai Hui would also report it. Wang Xian couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this. He really didn't mean to take advantage of the opportunity to make money, but once Qin Shou, a bitch, publicized it, there was no point in denying it.
.I can only remind myself that I won’t be an exception next time. If this happens again in the future, don’t make it public and let your family handle it.
In fact, weddings, funerals, and relocations have always been an opportunity for superiors to make money and subordinates to pay tribute. They have been used to it for thousands of years. Wang Xian has no intention of becoming an upright official, let alone he is not even an official, so why bother himself? Just follow the rules.
In the afternoon, after reporting last month's accounts to Weizhi County, Wang Xian proposed that he would like to go to Yongfeng warehouse to take inventory.
After being reminded by Wang Xianyi, Wei Zhixian realized that after taking office, he had been busy seizing power and had neglected Chang Pingcang!
Yongfengcang is Changpingcang, also called Preparatory Cang in this dynasty. It is a good policy implemented by the court to stabilize people's livelihood. It has three main functions, one is 'pingbao', which is the so-called buying in spring and selling in autumn, and adjusting the price of grain.
'Lending' refers to lending seed rations to the people when the countryside is in recession, and borrowing them in the spring and returning them in the autumn, of course, with additional interest. There is also 'relief', which means opening warehouses to provide relief to the people when encountering large-scale floods, droughts and locust plagues...
It is no exaggeration to say that Changpingcang is the stabilizer of a state and a county. If this system works well, the people will be able to withstand disasters and famines, and their lives will be relatively stable. If it does not work well, people will go bankrupt from time to time.
There will also be widespread famine, leading to widespread starvation and displacement...
Since Wei Zhixian is determined to repay the emperor's favor, how the people are safe and how Chang Pingcang is doing can be said to be the top priority. Once reminded, he will naturally attach great importance to it.
After hearing those tricks of substituting one thing for another, Wei Zhixian gritted his teeth and stared at Wang Xian coldly: "I now know that when the water is clear, there will be no fish. But you remember it for me, a penny of money is harmful to conscience and national law.
Don't be greedy, or I will chop your head off!"
"My subordinate is coincidentally with the eldest master," Wang Xian smiled bitterly in his heart. If I want to embezzle, why should I report it to you? "My subordinate is the accountant of Hexian County. There are some bad rules and regulations, so I have to follow them, otherwise such a big company
The stall cannot be sustained for a day. However, we must put an end to corruption, corruption and bending of the law. We will not cause trouble to the great master, and we will not let the common people poke his back."
After hearing his statement, Wei Zhixian felt deeply considerate, so he put on a smile and said: "I have defied all opinions and asked you to take charge of the household. Firstly, I am attracted by your outstanding ability, but also because of your loyal and kind temperament."
, don’t let me down!”
"Yes." Wang Xian looked like he was crying with gratitude.
After receiving the ticket from the county magistrate, Wang Xian went to the Zhuang class to order twenty people from the Zhuang class, met them together with the twenty clerks led by Wu Wei, and rushed to Yongfengcang in the east of the city.
After drinking tea, we arrived at Yongfeng Lane, where the warehouse is located. Wang Xian asked everyone to wait at the gate. Accompanied by Wu Wei, he went in first to check the tickets with the warehouse ambassador.
The Cang Ambassador of this county is named Du Ziteng. Although he is a low-ranking official, he is still one level higher than the official. Although Wang Xian is very popular, he still dare not make a big deal. After meeting Du Ziteng with a courtesy, he went to his duty room and sat down.
.
Du Ziteng is in his forties, has a fat head and big ears, and looks corrupt, but that's normal. There is a saying in the officialdom, "It is better to be a prostitute than to be an official, and it is better to be a good person than to be a prostitute." This means that from a practical perspective, it is better to be an official than to be a steward.
Those in charge of warehouses are not as good as those in charge of grain depots. It can be seen that although the official position of the warehouse ambassador is humble, the salary and salary are extremely rich.
Du Ziteng was not surprised when Wang Xiandao made his intention clear, because every year in the early winter, it was necessary to sell old rice and buy new rice, which was considered a routine matter. This year, it was delayed until the end of winter, and it was already too late. Of course, there are many tricks here, but
Du Ziteng and Wang Xian were not familiar with each other, and he had previously asked Zhou Yang, a grain merchant, to find out what was going on, but was rejected. In addition, Wang Xian was a close confidant of the county magistrate, so Ambassador Du did not dare to speak rashly and decided to do business first.
After checking the tickets, Du Ziteng asked the warehouse clerk to get the account books and introduced: "This county originally had four reserve warehouses, located in four townships, but in recent years there have been Japanese pirates along the coast, and the Chief Secretary ordered that Changping's grain be concentrated in the county seat.
, no longer set up warehouses in the countryside."
In Wang Xian's memory of his previous life, it seems that Japanese pirates only broke out in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, but in fact from the Hongwu period to Yongle, Japanese pirates were also very rampant along the coast. Fortunately, the Ming army was strong at this time, and the Japanese pirates were just harassment, not a problem... But the Japanese pirates
They come and go without a trace, and there are internal agents, so it is very difficult for the government and army to eliminate them.
While listening to Du Ziteng's introduction, Wang Xian flipped through the account books. He didn't have time to look through the thick account books, but after roughly counting them, he stood up and said, "Master Du, let's go to the library and take a look."
"Okay." Du Ziteng nodded, picked up a large plate of keys, and led Wang Xian through several waterproof and fireproof courtyard walls to the outside of the warehouse with the 'A' hanging on it.
Du Ziteng opened the door of the warehouse and saw that the grain troughs made of bricks and stones were filled with white rice. Du Ziteng reached out and grabbed a handful of rice and said, "It is rainy and humid in the south of the Yangtze River, so food storage must be kept ventilated and dry. This grain warehouse
There is also a fire dragon underground, and if it is left for ten days and a half a month, it will be burned once."
Wang Xian nodded and asked, "How much grain will be processed this year?"
