Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

A small incident in a small county may cause the whole city to know about it, not to mention what happened in Wu County can be called a major event. No one knows the identity of the fourth young master Zhao who is with the grain shop. There are people from the capital with a lot of background, but the magistrate of the county is very respectful to Mr. Zhao.Since the demolition of the house started, many people gathered around to watch the excitement from a distance, and some people went to pick up the thrown things. At first, they picked up things smoothly, but after being surrounded by soldiers sent by the garrison, they didn't dare to go up again. In the past, the common people were more curious about the guesses about the identity of Mr. Zhao, and at the same time they were more curious about the occupied land. What is this for?

Could it be that there are some treasures inside?Otherwise, why spend so much money to disperse the people, and let the soldiers come over to guard?Besides this, they can't think of anything else. If they want to build something, even if it is to build a tomb for the emperor, they will not give money to the people, and they will send soldiers to drive them away. Besides, the tomb will not be in the city. In the deep mountains, no one will be found. As for those who built the tomb, none of them came out alive.The people brought by Mr. Zhao should not dig graves!With so many strong young men, it would be a pity to dig a grave.

Even though soldiers stopped them, they did not stop the people from watching the excitement. The houses were demolished very quickly. Wang Xiujin stood in the construction site and saw that the best one was built of adobe and trees. He sighed a long time. Wang Xiujin didn't know what to say What, the country people envy the life of the city people, but the life of the city people is not as comfortable as that of the country people.At least there is land in the countryside, but people living in the city...shake their heads, people seem to always think that what others have is the best, but they can't see what they own.

"All the houses built by Brother Zhao in the capital have been sold?" At this moment, Wang Xiujin remembered about the houses in the capital. His elder brother hasn't seen the houses yet. If they are all sold, he will not be able to live with his father-in-law when he goes to the capital. !

"There are three households left unsold, so I can pick any one at that time. It's a good place. It doesn't stand out, and it's not eye-catching." How could Zhao Si refuse to reserve a house for Wang Xiujin, "You pay for one, and the other The other part is given to you by my brother, without your suggestion, I would not have such a good way to make money. And this is a dividend, don’t refuse, you deserve it.” Zhao Si took out a Zhang Yinpiao, "This matter should be taken out on the day you come, but you confuse the money with the workshop, thinking about waiting, how can you forget this matter when you get busy." Zhao Si Patting his forehead, he was a little annoyed that he had forgotten such an important thing.

Wang Xiujin didn't expect such a thing to come out of his mouth so casually, he felt very awkward, as if asking Zhao Si for money.Looking at Zhao Si blankly, if the money is taken, it will be like holding a hot potato, "Zhao Si brother, this money, the younger brother must not take it, I have already taken your house, if I take your money again, Then what have I become?" Wang Xiujin shook his head, he couldn't accept it, he definitely couldn't accept it.

"No, if you don't accept it, who is the fourth brother?" Zhao Si pushed the money ticket over again, "Brother, don't look at the fourth brother who is always crying poor, but the fourth brother wears and eats He has his own share, in the past, the money was really nothing in the eyes of the fourth brother."

Wang Xiujin thought that Zhao Si could give a hundred taels of banknotes just because of a steamed stuffed bun recipe, and nodded in agreement. For Zhao Si, money is really not a thing.Thinking of the hardships of ordinary people digging food in the fields for a year, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. The gap between people is incomparable, and the more they compare, the more they feel envious and jealous.Even so, the money cannot be collected.Shaking his head, he pushed the bill towards Zhao Si, "If the fourth brother feels that he has lost his younger brother, he can use the money to do some practical things, for example, build a workshop specializing in the production of iron for building houses. "

"This is feasible." After Zhao Si heard this, he clapped his hands. Wang Xiujin's brain is more flexible than others. Why didn't he think of setting up a special engineering school to produce the iron pillars needed for building houses without waiting When building a house, you have to find iron smelters to find iron smelters, not only delaying progress, but also delaying making money. "Let's get one in Wu County first, and Brother Lao will help take care of it in the future. You can't say no, because there is still your money in the workshop."

"Fourth brother, this place is not the best place to build a workshop." Zhao Si's words made people speechless, what do you mean he is helping, and his money, what are you kidding, he has a lot of things to do every day ?How can I be free. "It's best to build it in a place where there are mines." Zhao Si was right after thinking about it, so he didn't mention the matter of setting up another workshop in Wu County.Wang Xiujin breathed a sigh of relief, the people in the royal family can really be hands-off shopkeepers.

The projects in the city are in full swing, and the autumn harvest is approaching. Wang Xiujin sent shopkeeper Yu and his assistants to harvest rice. He didn't even show up, but he went to a few nearby villages that didn't sign the crab land contract. As soon as Wang Xiujin showed his face to show his identity, he was enthusiastically invited to the village chief's house. After a while, all the village elders who could speak came, just wanting to know if their village could also plant crab fields, and let them grow crab fields by themselves. You can also buy crabs!They know that the new rice is harvested by catty, not by stone, and the price difference between inside and outside, even people who don't know how to count, know that they only make money and don't lose money.What is the purpose of those who plan food in the ground all year round, not to be able to harvest more to supplement their household expenses.

Wang Xiujin was made a little uncomfortable by the enthusiasm of the folks in each village. After the transfer of several villages, the signing of the contract was much smoother than in the previous villages. Thinking about the relatives of Wang Village, Wang Xiujin sneered, even now they treat the eldest brother He no longer uses his status to oppress others, and even flatters his elder brother very much, but he also wants to vent his previous anger for his elder brother.

In the capital, Li Sushan first sent away Wang Xiujin and then the fourth prince. He either went to the military camp or read military books at home.On this day, Li Sushan and his grandfather talked about sending people to Wu County. Wang Xiujin wrote a letter before, talking about whether the soldiers would be disgusted with being workers. The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren sat together and expressed their opinions. The subordinates have considered a lot, but they have never thought about this. Going to work is not mandatory, but they are just afraid that they will not be able to survive in their hometown.Three generations, you look at me, I look at him, except for the old general and Li Sushan who have no expression, the other three have a sad face, no matter how well they think, it is a mistake not to think of the most important thing.

The three hurriedly said that they would send someone to inquire about the list sent by Wang Xiujin.

After this incident happened, Li Sushan suddenly thought of what Wang Xiujin said about raising his daughter, so he said it.Everyone present didn't look very good after hearing this, especially General Li and Li Sushan's second uncle.Li Junwen with a dark face said coolly, "Where did my nephew hear this?"

"Second Uncle, it doesn't matter who said this, don't you think it makes sense?" Li Sushan naturally wouldn't throw Wang Xiujin out, and closed his eyes without blinking.Li Sushan looked directly at the second uncle, and it was said that the second aunt asked to come in on his own initiative, not someone who was a matchmaker. His mother's actions were wrong, but in his opinion, the second aunt's fault was even greater.

Li Junwen was silent, and Old General Li patted his eldest grandson on the shoulder, "Of course there is nothing wrong with that, but unless the emperor orders marriage, who can guarantee that a spoiled daughter will definitely enter the enemy's house." Old General Li knew his grandson There is a knot in my heart, even if I can never see any emotions from my grandson's face, but if I am careful, I can see a lot of emotions from his eyes, whether it is joy or sadness, but the eldest son and his wife have not yet met. Wait until you can see the emotion in the child's eyes and then abandon the child.Now one person regrets, the other passed away, and the one who regrets is trying to make up for it. Unfortunately, the eldest grandson has already passed the period when his parents need to pay attention. He has learned to face it. Facing the indifference of his parents, facing his biological mother who forced him to die, he is relatively life and death.The old general heaved a long sigh. It was his fault. If he had paid more attention to cleaning up the back house earlier, maybe so many things would not have happened.

Li Sushan didn't say anything else, looking at his father, "Your sister can't be too spoiled, you should know the etiquette, and the people around you must check carefully. If the father has no time to take care of him, the son can take the place of the father."

Li Junliang nodded earnestly, the corners of General Li's mouth turned up, and the corners of Li Junliang's two younger brothers twitched. The elder brother actually nodded after being taught a lesson by his son. It's really... really eye-opening.

When the three brothers left the study, they stood at the door. The eldest hurriedly took a step ahead. The second child and the third child looked at each other. The family and the second sister-in-law's family are not dealing with each other because of some things, although there is no enmity, but they are not far away."

Li Junwen raised his eyebrows and looked at his younger brother. He knew very well what happened back then. Before his daughter-in-law got married, the uncle committed a crime. The father-in-law's family wanted the Li family to save him, but he didn't agree. , the eldest uncle was beheaded.It wasn't that he was cruel, if the uncle made another mistake, maybe he would save it, but he absolutely shouldn't have used the military supplies.Li Junwen sighed, his eyes were stern, if it was because of this, he would definitely not spare the Yue family.

In the study, Old General Li looked at his eldest grandson and patted his shoulder with a sigh, "The one who sent it back was not your second aunt who was divorced, your second aunt already..." Without further ado, Li Su was just as good as he thought. Knowing what he meant, what surprised him was that the second aunt's family didn't make a sound.Old General Li didn't continue this topic anymore, he owed their family, no matter who he was, he couldn't be safe. "In the past few days, go to the barracks to pick out a few homeless soldiers who can retire, and let them take the selected people to Wu County. If Xiujin's side starts to work, only disabled soldiers may not be able to hold on. Xiaoxiao."

Wang Xiujin, who was at home in Wangcunzhai, sneezed and rubbed his nose, who was thinking about him.He flipped through the books casually, and today was considered idle, so he was called to the study by his father to test his homework. If he couldn't memorize it, he didn't play the handboard, but the expression on his father's face made Wang Xiujin think what the hell he had done. Big mistake.Putting it into the chair, Wang Xiujin admired his father very much at the moment, his eloquence was really good, he thought that Li Sushan was already the master of chattering, but his father was the real master of chattering, compared with him, Li Sushan was just a little boy rookie.The old man is as good as anyone, without a pause in his words, and he can make your thinking follow his words, and then use his words to confuse you, and comply with his request.Thinking of the last time in the yamen, the villain who was mentioned by his father as a prisoner, did not expect to be able to personally experience what it feels like to be said to be confused.Wang Xiujin sighed, the words of civil officials in ancient times were harsh.

Flipping through the book again, Wang Xiujin had a bitter expression on his face. Why did he agree to memorize the book backwards? Looking at it from the beginning, he felt that the articulation was not smooth. He really wanted to slap himself a few times.Sighing, he collected his thoughts. If he didn't recite it tomorrow morning, he might not even think about going out. His chattering attacks would be powerless to fight back.

In the house, Wang Xiujin was endorsing a book, but the people of Wang Village outside the house were all in a hurry. After the autumn harvest, the Wang Family Grain Shop never mentioned signing a contract with them. It is possible for a village to forget the food for a while. They didn't think about Wang Xiujin. Before, they heard many people who came to the city say that Wang Xiujin helped a young man from the capital to do something important. Keep busy, I heard that the young master is the one who paid for the old Liu's house last year.Wang Xiujin was busy with other things, so the shopkeeper was in charge of the grain shop, so it was fine if there was a mistake, and Wangcun would not be lost anywhere.But now, all the villages that have planted crab fields have finished harvesting, and they have signed the deeds early, but they have not signed, what is going on?

People in the village ran to ask the village chief, but the village chief sneered at the person who came, and said with his sleeves that he couldn't manage this matter. If everyone felt that he was not suitable as the village chief, they would choose someone else.Even if those present had an opinion on the village chief, they couldn't open their mouths to choose someone else.But, you have to figure out why you didn't sign the contract!

When I came out of the village head's house, I just talked to each other. Someone had a good relationship with the village head's family, so I asked secretly. The village head's wife sighed and shook her head. Why did the people in the village fight After Lao Liu came back, he kept getting confused.First they stared at the money they brought back, and then the bastards in the village went to steal other people's crabs. Not to mention that after being sent to serve in corvee, these bastards learned very well one by one. It is said that the only few households in the village signed There are a few that have signed the contract.Then, thinking about occupying the wealth of the old six's family, they came to tell people what small things they said. They haven't heard of anyone in their village who has a small family. These daughters-in-law who came from other villages didn't bring good ones into Wangcun, so they brought some Bad atmosphere, and later, the people in the village simply turned their noses up. After Xiubo became the county magistrate, they all put on the airs of the elders, domineering, like crabs in the rice fields, crossing their hands in the city, Being cleaned up by Xiu Bai, and still putting on airs, pointing at Xiu Bai and scolding, what's the matter!

The village head's daughter-in-law didn't reply when she saw that she usually made friends with her relatives.This person, I am satisfied, the good life of every household these days is all because of the convenience given by the clan relatives. How many people in other villages beg for their own money to buy crab seedlings, just so that Tian Ding can reap the same amount of money? Food, but look at the village, Tianding produces crab seedlings, and the money from selling the crabs belongs to them, and they are all the same as Lao Liu's family should be.With the door closed, the village head's wife doesn't care about those dissatisfied people. No matter what she says at the moment, they won't listen to them. If they don't teach them a hard lesson, Lao Liu's family won't owe them anything at all. It is a favor to help them, and there is nothing wrong with not helping them.

"All gone? Didn't say anything!" The village head came out from the back room and looked at his wife.The daughter-in-law shook her head, she was supporting Tianding to give these people in the village a hard time, otherwise she really thought she owed them.Seeing his daughter-in-law's appearance, the village chief was overjoyed, and the wrinkles on his face were all wrinkled together.

"You said that in the coming year, they will be dissatisfied when they see that our family has signed the contract." The village head's wife thinks about it!Their family didn't want to sign well, but shopkeeper Yu said that the owner had specified several companies that could be signed, and he dared not go against his owner's wishes.

"Tian Ding knows how to measure, nothing will happen." The village head happily walked to the back room with his hands behind his back, "I will give the village head to Da'er after the new year."

"Can you hold it down?"

"If you can't suppress it, you have to suppress it. I can still help when I'm alive. If I give it to him when I'm gone, then he won't be able to suppress it."

The village head's wife stopped talking, and went to the kitchen to call the eldest daughter-in-law. Thinking about how big her grandson was, she was really worried. With the old man around, there was really nothing that could be overwhelmed.

The villagers didn't find out why, and felt aggrieved in their hearts. There must be an explanation for this matter!I didn't sign a contract with those families last year, it was because those families wanted to send children to others, but why haven't I signed a contract with them this year?

"Why? Isn't it because you all feel that you have a relative of the county magistrate and you can do whatever you want." Someone squatted on the wall and laughed at them, "Don't forget that the county magistrate and Tianding are brothers, and you are almost as good as the big brother" People can tolerate you if you do things that hurt nature and reason." The person who spoke was unable to sign the contract last year because of a thoughtful daughter-in-law in the family. How did these people laugh at them last year? This year it is their turn to laugh back. , although they didn't sign the contract, but they were psychologically balanced, and there was a village of people accompanying them, and they found it interesting.

"We didn't do anything. There was a county magistrate in our village who happened to be in front of our house. We were not allowed to talk about it. We neither stole chickens nor touched dogs."

"That's right, it's not us who did something bad, why should we be implicated together!"

"Come on, let's talk to Tianding. If he doesn't give an explanation, we won't let his shop open."

"Yes, I think he can still put us all in prison."

These people shouted happily and followed to the big house, but they didn't even knock on the door.The door of Wang Huan's house is not an ordinary wooden door. The outside of the door is made of wooden strips, and the inside is a solid block. It is not easy to break the door open.As for going to the city to make trouble, everyone just shouted, but no one dared to go. Don't forget, they still have a relative who is still in prison. The county magistrate really dared to arrest him.
