Chapter One Hundred and Ninety-One: Siye Says Good Things
Yu Gou was a little panicked, but he was also full of expectations. He knew that when Li Siye came to Qiuci, he would definitely be promoted to an official position. And he specially sent someone to call him, so the unresolved matter must have come to an end.
.
No matter whether it is a good result or a bad result, it is better than hanging on your heart. No matter what, whether it succeeds or fails, just give it a happy outcome.
He was led outside the door of the military duty room by his disciples, crossed his hands and said, "I'm subordinate Yu Gou."
"Come in."
With his heart pounding, he pushed open the next door and raised his head to look directly in front of him. He saw Li Siye sitting cross-legged on the ground with his hand on his forehead and a sad look on his face. His boss, Wu Sangao, was kneeling next to him and seemed to be comforting him.
It's over. As soon as he saw this scene, he knew that this matter must not be done. Although Congling's envoy is a remote position that no one cares about, it should be noted that this is also a seventh-grade official who needs to be sued by the emperor. How could it be like this?
Easy to get!
As his heart gradually cooled down, he also began to accept the reality calmly. He forced a smile and crossed his hands: "Li Shijun, we have been apart for more than half a year, and my subordinates are here to greet you."
Li Siye still put his hand on his forehead and said sadly: "Yu Gou, there is something I have to tell you."
Yu Gou tried his best to control his facial muscles and spoke through his teeth: "Li Shijun... But it doesn't matter. Nine times out of ten things in life will be unsatisfactory, and Yu Gou has already... been prepared."
Li Siye stood up from the sheep felt, came to Yu Gou's side with his eyebrows lowered, held his shoulders and sighed: "This time, I will help you with the matter of guarding the envoys of Congling..."
"It's done!"
Yu Gou also sighed calmly and said: "Although the matter has gone wrong, I don't blame others. I can submit a letter of love to the Duhufu, willing to demote myself, and continue to work as the warehouse manager in Congling."
Li Siye patted his shoulder hard again: "Hey, it's done!"
"It's done? It's done!"
Yu Gou's eyes widened, and he slumped on the ground as if he had no skeleton. Li Siye quickly took his armpits and pulled him up. At this time, ripples of excitement spread from his face:
"It's done! Your Majesty! It's done!"
Wu Sangao, who was watching from the side, was also startled. He was so frightened that it was even more exciting than winning a Jinshi. Others didn't know it and thought he was getting a good job.
Li Siye held his hand and smiled and said: "We both share the same joy today. I have been appointed as the Colonel of the 8th Regiment of the 33rd Zhechong Mansion by the Governor of Lai. From now on, you will call me Colonel Li.
How can we not celebrate such a good thing? Today I will be the host and go to the Orchid Wine Shop in Qiuci City to have a drink to celebrate."
Wu Sangao held his belly next to him and said, "That's fine, I'll go with you to share in your happiness."
"Well, I'll go and explain what's going on in the warehouse to the handymen first. Ambassador Li... no, Lieutenant Li, please wait for me for a moment."
Wu Sangao said with a smile: "You are about to be promoted, so what are you going to do in the warehouse? I will make the decision and leave these matters to others."
Yu Gou raised his hands together, bent down and bowed to the two of them, saying: "Although I have received the official transfer letter, I am still in charge of Hu Cao's office today. I still have to do things within the scope of my responsibilities well. Oh, and there are also
, My Lieutenant Li, if you have good news in the future, don’t tell me in this way again, my heart really can’t bear it.”
After saying that, he took a few steps back with his hands in hand, then turned around, pushed open the next door, and walked calmly outside.
He was in a very good mood today, and he treated the servants and guards in the warehouse with a cheerful face, making them feel like drinking nectar.
Others could see the joy in his heart. An official who was also in charge of Bo asked from the side: "Master Bo, I have never seen you so cheerful in the past. But if you have any good things, tell me and I will be happy."
"It's not a big good thing," Yu Gou said, cupping his hands, "It's just the favor of the Protector who transferred me to Congling to guard the capital."
The man's expression changed when he heard this, but he still raised his hands and said with a smile: "In this case, congratulations to Yu Shou for catching the envoy."
"Okay, okay. In the past, an envoy invited me to drink and celebrate at the Orchid Wine Shop in the city. I will take the first step today. Please bear with me, brother."
"It's okay, you can go on your own." The colleague waved his hand humbly.
Yu Gou returned to the check-in room, changed into a pile of clean black gauze and folded the towel, lowered his head to face the reflection of the clear water in the coarse porcelain bowl, wrapped the veil behind his head, folded his feet in front of his forehead, and folded his feet on the back of his head.
After folding his feet, he turned around and went out with satisfaction.
As soon as he stepped across the threshold, he heard a faint voice coming from the check-in room next door.
"I don't know how happy he is. What's the difference between going to Congling to guard the captives and being exiled? It's winter in August and spring comes back in April. Even if you want to be promoted, even if you have no place to go, you can't stray into it. This kind of suffering
Being cold can last a lifetime."
"Everyone has his own ambitions. When the market becomes big, there will be green mules, hehe."
Facing the ridicule and misunderstanding behind this, Yu Gou didn't take it seriously. He hugged a gold brick that no one else knew, and only he could understand the benefits. Then again, if Congling Shouchuo was a piece of cake, it would still be a piece of cake.
Is it his turn to be eaten by a helpless person like him?
…
Thick and low thorn willows hang down their branches on the street. Huji Wine Shop is bustling with activity. Li Siye, Yu Gou, and Wu Sangao are sitting by the window on the second floor. Doctor Jiu holds a wine jar in his arms and stands in front of them.
On the four plans.
"Guests, eat slowly. If you have any orders, please call me."
"Okay, you go down and stay."
Compared with Chang'an, the Orchid Restaurant in Qiuci has a bit more of a pure Hu flavor. The walls made of rammed earth, the round-arched doors and windows, and the flat-roofed houses made of chiseled white stone are of Persian style.
represent.
Li Siye was looking at the wall in trance, when Wu Sangao was already holding the wine jar and pouring it into the wine bowl in front of him.
"I'm already tired of drinking Sanlejiang. Let's drink something fresh today. This is the Malang wine from Dashi. Come on, let's take a bowl each and drink it first."
Li Siye picked up the wine bowl and drank it. He felt that it was so good to quench his thirst. He had a few sips of hot tea at Cao Zhenqing's place today, and the more he ate, the thirstier he became. Finally, he felt as comfortable as eating a popsicle.
.
The three of them drank several bowls of wine, and their faces were a bit drunk. Li Siye waved his hand to Wu Sangao: "You take the wine bowl and drink elsewhere. Yu Gou and I have a few words to say."
"Hey, why are you hiding something from me? I don't know what you are doing, little Jiujiu."
Wu San picked up the wine bowl and swayed towards the distance. He walked around Kang Junu who was spinning on the wooden platform in the center of the wine shop and sat in the west corner of the wine shop.
"I have a few things to tell you. You are well aware of our financial transactions in Congling. 40% is used as capital and 60% is used for circulation. Moreover, the box of gold that Mansour gave me is also hidden in the thatched hall.
.Cotton cultivation will always be kept below one thousand acres, and you won’t be able to transport more. The main income is still making quilts and cotton-padded jackets, but remember not to send them to Qiuci. You can sell them in bulk to several other towns in Anxi.
"
Yu Gou suddenly interrupted and asked: "Why can't it be sold in Qiuci? Our supply to the Duhufu is the largest one?"
Li Siye lowered his voice: "Anxi began to change generals, and the governor of Laiyao wanted to return to Chang'an to serve as the right-leading general. The former Beiting Jiedushi Gai Jiayun had full jurisdiction over Beiting and the four towns of Anxi and became the Qixi Jiedushi. Qiuci
In the future, the generals of the Beiting clan will be in charge of the Duhufu. We don't know the background of these people. Who knows what their attitude is towards Congling's side business, so it is better to be cautious and not be accused of pursuing business profits.
"
Yu Gou nodded in agreement: "I understand what you said."
"Also, I don't want to do the business of escorting the caravan. Talents from the Suo family in Guazhou came to talk to me in detail. Although they are very understanding, the risk of leaving one's post without permission to compete with the local area is still too risky.
."
After Yu Gou heard these words, the fire in his heart was half extinguished by cold water. How come he could do it well in Li Shijun's hands but couldn't do it before he got it into his own hands? This is not allowed.
, then you won’t be allowed to do it, so why don’t you do it with a ball?
