Chapter 244: Impeachment

"I hope Madame will always follow her heart. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Hearing this, Yao Su smiled and poured another cup of hot tea to replace the cup of tea that was getting colder just now.

"Thank you, Master Yao. Shumin picked up the misty teacup and took a shallow sip.

For a moment, both fell silent.

Silent but not embarrassed, the two were eating breakfast and drinking morning tea, as if they had a tacit understanding.

"Master Yao..."

"Mrs. Qin..."

The two suddenly spoke in unison, looked at each other and smiled.

"If Mrs. Qin has something to say, you might as well say it directly. Yao Su said.

"Master Yao, have you ever had the same thoughts as the Liu family. Pifu is not guilty, if you make a move, Baili Village has no power to parry. Shumin hesitated, but still spoke.

"I'm not short of money!" Yao Su replied.

What a domineering answer! Shumin snorted and laughed.

"Is Master Yao saying that the Liu family is very short of money?" she covered her mouth and smiled.

"It's not that they're short of money, they're afraid. The Liu family started with business, and took business as the foundation of their life, and they have been operating for several generations to have today's scale, but the business sea is ever-changing and ever-changing, and they dare not be careless. Yao Su analyzed.

In this world, if you have money, you can cling to the powerful, and in the same way, the powerful can also use power for profit.

Yao Su didn't say much, but the meaning was very clear, the Liu family was attached to a certain powerful person in the court, and the prosperous business house was the shell of a certain powerful person in the court to make profits.

There is an essential difference between the two: the relationship between the former and the powerful is maintained by interests, while the latter is interests.

"I'm so relieved to hear you say that. Shumin smiled.

"With me here, you have nothing to worry about. Yao Su saw that her eyebrows finally relaxed, and said in her heart.

"Look, the beauty has traveled...... I don't know who shouted, and everyone who was drinking tea ran to the window and stretched their heads.

Shumin followed their gaze.

Outside the drunken wind building, Peony is dressed very beautifully today, taking off her usual heavy makeup, wearing only a plain skirt, and three thousand green silk simply pulled a bun on the back of her head, fixed by a white hosta, elegant and lovely.

The carriage was ready, Zhao Wenjie helped Peony and carefully sent her to the carriage, while he led the black wind and followed the carriage. Like her patron saint.

Shumin's heart suddenly became sour, and her mouth became bitter, it had only been two days, but she seemed to have gotten used to it, as if she had been using such days for several years.

"They are going to the Guanyun Temple today to pray for blessings. Yao Su said, "If you want to go, I will accompany you." ”

Shumin shook his head and said, "No, everyone is unhappy when they are huddled together." ”

Shumin gently pressed his hand to his chest, where there was a living heart, struggling very hard.

"I'm going back to Beijing with him the day after tomorrow. Shumin said, and suddenly smiled, "We'll meet in the capital in the future." ”

The smile was a little bitter.

"As long as Madame follows her own heart. Yao Su staggered his eyes, lowered his head and drank the cup of tea that had already been cold, the herbal tea was bitter, he frowned and swallowed.

In the yamen, the county commander Zhang Zhengmin sat at the top of the study, Master Su, and the new chief bookkeeper Liu Zhu, etc., large and small sat in the entire study.

Everyone's faces were solemn, and the tea was already cold.

"Don't hide it from everyone, I received an urgent report from the Song Governor's Mansion last night, and the two crops of rice trees were very popular, and they were extremely dissatisfied with us, and we were ordered to stop immediately. I thought about it for a night, and I summoned everyone early in the morning to hear their opinions. Jeongmin said in a deep voice, his voice solemn and his brows furrowed.

This is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and it is also a great opportunity for the grassroots county to let Zhang Zhengmin gain a firm foothold, everyone is very enthusiastic, but the Song prefect's reprimand completely extinguished the enthusiasm in his heart.

In fact, it was not just a reprimand, the original letter of the Song prefect accused Zhang Zhengmin of being an improper official, rejoicing in his great achievements, and being greedy for merit, and he had already gone to the scribe's department to ask for his removal from his post as a county magistrate.

After discussing with his master, he decided to hide this part of the matter first, so as not to cause everyone to mess up.

"No, sir. Hearing this, the master of Liu said urgently: "These two seasons of rice are beneficial to the country and the people, and the people support it, and the land of the county has been measured and ploughed according to the requirements of Mrs. Qin, and the paper has already been set, and it will be shipped in a few days. ”

The main bookkeeper is in charge of grain tax household registration, promoting two crops of rice, and he is the busiest in the yamen, although it is still a beginning, but his hard work is no less than that of Shumin and others.

Jeongmin was promoted because of the tofu exception, so will he get the opportunity to be promoted because of the two crops of rice in the future?

Ambitious, he doesn't want to start and finish.

"Yes, sir. The results of this experimental field are there, and the two-crop rice is resolutely feasible, and the prefect hopes that the prefect will be able to explain the benefits and disadvantages in a book, and I believe that the prefect will be able to understand. ”

The rest of the people responded.

Jeongmin and Master Su glanced at each other, and both of them saw a trace of helplessness and a wry smile in each other's eyes.

"My lord, should I invite Mrs. Qin to come over?" said Master Su.

Zhengmin waved his hand when she heard this, she had already withstood a lot of pressure in the development of two crops of rice, and besides, she was a woman after all, so it was good for him to withstand these pressures, and there was no need to add to her worries.

He couldn't wait to promote the two-crop rice, but she was still burdened by him.

"I might as well tell you that the Song Governor's Mansion has made up its mind, and the book will not play much role, if we insist on going our own way, I am afraid that the above will be held accountable at that time.

Of course, this official will carry it himself, I am afraid that I am afraid that everyone here will be affected, after all, it is not easy to be promoted. ”

Jeongmin calmly told him that he had no way back at this time.

Silent......

Halfway through, Master Liu suddenly burst out laughing.

"What kind of promotion, I have spent most of my life, and I am close to the year of knowing my fate before I sit in this position of the main book, even if I stay in this position safely, I have no years to do, it is better to do something for the villagers. ”

"Yes, the reason why the people are against it is because they don't see the people's thirst for food, and we come and go in the rain every day, and wait with the people to plant these two crops of rice, and see what they say!"

"That's right, it's only been a few months, as long as we drag on these months, I'm sure they won't have anything to say. ”

A few months? Zhengmin smiled bitterly in his heart, now that the impeachment of the prefect has reached the ministry, I am afraid that his time is running out.

"Since everyone is determined to promote the two crops of rice, the official is very pleased, and the official will definitely try his best to win the trust of the Song Governor and buy more time for everyone. Jeongmin said.

Since the prefect has been impeached, but the appointment of the imperial court is not child's play, he must be given a chance to argue, right?

"Your Excellency is wise. Master Su's eyes were full of appreciation, and the yamen was united, if he could pass this hurdle, I believe that this yamen would become the clearest yamen in history.

After the meal, Shumin took Yao Su to visit the mechanical workshop under construction.

Lao Li Tou has agreed to come over to be the "technical director", he has been running very diligently in the mechanical workshop these days, and the planning of the workshop has also been improved according to his suggestions.

The workshop was built on a piece of wasteland between Linjiang Town and Baili Village, with a size of nearly 100 acres, and now it is close to the village, with rows of houses.

"This is a dormitory, and most of the craftsmen are a little arrogant, and these houses are all benefits for them. Shumin said. "The warehouse will be built close to the town for future shipments. ”

"I'm also going to buy the swamp in the distance and build a sewage treatment plant. The sewage from the mechanical workshop must be treated before it can be discharged into the river water, otherwise it will pollute the water source. We can't save this money. ”

The pollution caused by overdevelopment in modern society is a pain in people's hearts, and Shumin doesn't want her to destroy the original and beautiful environment here as soon as she comes.

"In this way, our silver is nervous again......" Shumin smiled at Yao Su, I heard it mentioned a few days ago, now the scale of the mechanical workshop is much larger than planned, and Shumin insists on building a sewage treatment plant, the 10,000 taels of start-up capital left by Yao Su is really not enough.

Raw materials such as iron ore rough are not counted in it!

"Haha...... That's why you brought me today. Yao Su smiled, "Should I mention some shares at the beginning, I always feel that I have lost a lot." ”

"Master Yao is far-sighted, where will he do loss-making business, my design is guaranteed to be unprecedented, and we can earn it all back without a few orders. ”

Shumin is full of confidence, with Yao Su's financial resources, manpower and the support of Caoyun, the products of the mechanical workshop will be famous all over the country!

"I don't have much money on the ticket, I'll ask someone to go to the money bank to get it for you later, if you need the silver in the future, just go to the Drunken Wind Building and say it." After coming to the workshop, Shumin's spirit was immediately full of a lot, and the sorrow between his eyebrows and eyes seemed to dissipate in this spring breeze at this moment.

This kind of Shumin is what he wants to see, and with her like this, Yao Su's mood is also stirring.

Such a woman should live wantonly, when she had nothing, she could leave resolutely when her husband took a concubine, and now, she has more and better choices, is it really her heart to marry Zhao Wenjie?

He has seen the sadness between her eyebrows and eyes, the deliberate drunkenness of her pretending to be nothing, and the way she blows up her hair like a hedgehog in the face of Peony's provocation.

She obviously cares, why do you say that it is her heart?

He really wanted to ask, but he was afraid that as soon as he opened his mouth, her mood that had finally become clear fell into a haze again.

"Mrs. Qin, if it's okay in the afternoon, why don't you go to the lake. He suddenly suggested. "There is a fairy lake outside the city, and there is a fairy island in the middle of the lake, and there is a fairy pavilion on the island, which enshrines a fairy statue and can ask for marriage. ”

"Haha...... Does Master Yao want to ask for marriage? Then I'll accompany you on a trip. Shu Min quipped.

But there's a fairy lake on the outskirts of the city, why haven't I heard of it?

That's right, that kind of place is only for people who have leisure to go, and she is a hard-working peasant woman who travels through her, where will she care about these things about traveling in the mountains and rivers. (To be continued.) )
