There was a noise from inside Tan City, and soon, a procession of carriages and horses came towards the outside of the city.
Just after taking a brief look at the scene, Li Jie knew that it was not Tan Zijimei who came.
"This is the senior official Gongsun Han."
"You know this too?"
Holding Chen Yao's hand, he couldn't help but squeeze it hard. Township leader Li was really happy now. This Chen Yao snake spirit was worth every penny, he made a profit!
Chen Yao didn't bother to explain the etiquette system to Li Jie, a country boy, and he wouldn't listen anyway.
On the road before, Chen Yao told Li Jie some etiquette from the Central Plains countries, but Li Jie just took it as fart and rebutted it plausibly.
Well, there are only two reasons: first, the Central Plains countries did not defeat him; second, even if the Central Plains countries defeated him, they could not defeat me, Wu.
Dawu is awesome!!!!!!!!!!
Seeing the doglike appearance of Li Jie, Chen Yao gave up arguing with such a person. It was pointless.
Unless someone can push him to the ground and rub him, of course, that's not enough, but he has to be rubbed to death... Otherwise, as long as such a person persists, he will definitely bite him back.
"Gongsun Han?"
Shang Xiaomei blinked and said, "I heard that this man is fond of money and silk. If he is bribed with valuables, he will be able to do business as he pleases in the Tan Kingdom."
"Nv Xia also knows this person?"
"Yanling often travels to and from Tancheng, so I know a little bit about it."
After Mayor Li learned about Gongsun Han's characteristics from the mouths of the two little wives, he took the "Crocodile Man" to greet him. At the same time, he also let the people of "Yi Dan Camp" have a sense of presence, so that they can be recognized by the top officials of the country.
Being interviewed is also a very honorable thing. Going out to make a living in the future can also be regarded as a qualification.
"A doctor from the lower country has seen a strong man from the upper country."
"'Yu Longzi' does not need to be modest. Wu and Tan have always been friendly, and they are good neighbors. The two families are actually one body and do not distinguish each other."
With that said, Li Jie waved, and Sha Hen came forward with a tray without saying a word. Li Jie smiled at Gongsun Han and said, "I'm traveling in a hurry, so be prepared with some small gifts. I hope 'Yu Longzi' won't be surprised."
Gongsun Han originally had a fief in the south of Tan. Because auspicious animals appeared in the area and a jade in the shape of a jade dragon was dug out, the place was called Yulong. Later, because this land was ceded by Tan, Gongsun Han
He also lost his fief.
Nowadays, the officials of the Tan Kingdom mainly rely on salary and fief subsidies. Every year, it depends on how much the Tan Kingdom has on its books. If it is more, they will be given a little, and if it is less, they will not be given.
"How dare Han accept this..."
The doctor of the State of Tan was about to say something modest, but Li Jie quietly lifted up the silk scarf covering the tray, revealing a corner, which was full of gold cakes.
Actually it's not much, just five yuan.
But for Gongsun Han, this is already a huge sum of money.
Goo!
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Gongsun Han felt a little embarrassed. He looked up at Li Jie's playful expression and quickly lowered his head and bowed: "Han deserves it."
"The doctor above is a pillar of the Tan Kingdom. He can be said to be a talented person in the world. If you don't accept him...could it be that you look down on Li?"
"How dare you?!"
Raising his head sharply and waving his hands repeatedly, Gongsun Han took two steps forward and took the tray himself, "Since I have been entrusted by a strong man, I dare not accept it!"
"Hahahaha...good!"
Li Jie laughed wildly and loudly, and then said, "If Li hadn't been appointed by the king, he would have to live in Tancheng for a long time. It's a pity, it's a pity that there is such a wise and wise man as the doctor, but he can't listen from the sidelines. It's really a pity."
"I dare not call you Zhixian, Han is just a villain from Haidong."
After asking his followers to take away the gold, Gongsun Han was not sure what Li Jie meant.
He had heard a lot of things, such as King Wu's crusade against Yiyang Jun Ji Xuan, for example, Li Jie was fighting against the twelve-nation coalition in Biyang Kingdom, and for example, Li Jie was heading to Lai Kingdom.
It's just that he doesn't know what's behind these things.
The most important thing is that the strong men of Wu State have very strange temperaments and are even more unpredictable than the people of Chu State.
Serving him carefully, Gongsun Han had no other thoughts at all. He just wanted to serve the old man in front of him, and then hoped that the old man would leave the country of Tan as soon as possible.
"Brother Yonghao."
"Don't dare call me brother! Don't dare, don't dare..."
Gongsun Han's courtesy name was Yonghao. In the past, the number of people who dared to call him brothers in Tan country could be counted on one hand. However, now that a "savage" like Li Jie calls him brother, he really doesn't dare to take it seriously.
Because Li Jie is going to Lai State, and Yiyang Lord is also going to Lai State. When Ji Xuan, an old turtle, passes by Tan State, if he knows that he is brother-in-law with Li Jie, why not stab him to death?
This term of Tanzi has employed three generations of the Gongsun family. Gongsun Yonghao’s grandfather and father all worked for Tanzi. Because he had a lot of experience, Gongsun Yonghao was never arrogant outside, only behind closed doors.
Only inside the Tanguo Gate can you show off your power.
He can't offend Li Jie, nor can he offend Yiyangjun Jixuan.
Seeing the sweat on his fat round face, Li Jie admired this guy a little.
He is obviously a great official in the country, but he has no momentum at all.
Even if Tan Guo is going to close down, as the CEO, you must at least have the ability to "not fall down even if it breaks the donkey".
After figuring out this person's behavior style, Li Jie had an idea.
So, Mayor Li said carelessly: "Li's trip is to Donglai on the king's order. The brigade is tired, people and horses are exhausted, can the doctor prepare food and fodder for me?"
"Okay, okay, okay..."
Gongsun Han nodded repeatedly, "This is Han's responsibility."
understood.
Township Chief Li suddenly understood that this short, fat man from Tan was a coward. He would rather cheat his own country than himself. As a representative of the Wu State, Li Jie in Tan was said to be tacitly allowed by the superior officials to take whatever he asked for.
However, Li Jie thought about it again and decided to go ahead. Ji Xuan, the old turtle, passed by and was afraid that he might also want to collect a handful of wool, and Gongsun Yonghao 100% did not dare to resist.
This guy is such a bitch.
Thinking of this, Mayor Li suddenly had an idea in his mind. Instead of letting that old turtle Ji Xuan pluck the wool, why don't I pluck it myself first?
Come first to show respect!
Done!
He led the "Crocodile Man" and two teams of "Yi Dan Camp" into Tancheng, and the remaining teams were stationed outside the city. The person in charge of setting up camp was Shah. The grumpy old man directed the prisoners to work very efficiently.
If you don't obey, you'll be killed, it's that simple.
"East."
"My subordinate is here!"
"Don't wait until you take someone to take stock of the Tan State's treasury."
"yes!"
Shadong did not ask the boss how to deal with it, nor did he ask the Tan people whether they would let them see the treasury, because Shadong believed that the boss could arrange such a thing in advance.
After settling in the city, Shang Xiaomei curiously asked Li Jie: "How do you want to deal with the country of Tan?"
"Empty the Tan State's treasury, first transport the grain and fodder to Biyang, and take the gold, silver, wealth and silk to Lai State."
"This...how can Tan country agree to this?!"
"I'll agree."
Li Jie looked at Shang Xiaomei and Chen Yao with a smile on his face, "That old guy Ji Xuan is going to pass by Tan State. If Tan City doesn't give me food, money and silk, I will say that Tan State wants to collude with Ji Xuan and become an enemy of Yancheng!"
"this……"
After hearing Li Jie's words, Chen Yao's eyes widened with a look of disbelief.
"The weak eat the strong. The country of Tan is weak, Ji Xuan is strong, and I am strong. Do you have to think about whether you give it to Ji Xuan or to me?"
"The weak eat the strong..."
Chen Yao muttered these four words, and his body suddenly trembled, making his hair stand on end.
