"What?!" Zhang Qian was shocked, arched his hand at Zhang Ruoxu, and ran away.

"Stop, what is the use of you going to do something that Guo Jia Erlang can't handle?" The one who was empty, but with a agility that was extremely incommensurate with his age, grabbed his arm.

"Uncle Shi!" Afraid of tearing the other party down, Zhang Qian struggled so hard that he didn't dare to work too hard, so he had to stare at his round eyes in protest, "That's my house, Guo Er is fighting with someone in my house, the other party must be ...... at me"

"Guo Jia Erlang looks reckless on the surface, but in fact, he has a furrow in his chest!" Zhang Ruoxu refused to let go, just stared at him with wide eyes, "Since he dares to fight, he must have considered whether his family can hold it." Even if you don't think about it, the two armies are fighting, and you don't even know who the enemy is, you shouldn't be the one who is the main general! ”

In the second half of the sentence, but when it came to the key point, Zhang Qian couldn't help but stop struggling, "Uncle Shi, you said, it's just a pawn who came today?" ”

"The old man is not sure, but you have to figure out who the other party is first!" Zhang Ruoxu let go of his hand and shook his head with a sneer, "You are new to the city, how many people can you offend?" What is causing you trouble right now is probably not for the life-saving elixir, but for the six gods that have made all the women in Chang'an flock to it in the past few days. ”

This is a judgment he made based on his previous experience in officialdom. Otherwise, it really can't be explained clearly, why would someone call the door to find Zhang Qian's trouble. Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, Ren Cong was heard denying loudly, "No, it's not." Uncle Shi, senior brother, that person is the workshop secretary of Weinan County. It's not for the six gods, it's to pull the senior brother to serve in labor! said that Weinan County will repair a canal and drain the water this winter, and the senior brother has become an independent portal and wants to act as the chief of the Benli! ”

"Workshop clerkship?" This time, it was Zhang Ruo's turn to be at a loss, frowning tightly and asking in a low voice, "A little official, where did you have the courage to deliberately make things difficult for the local gentry?" Is he new? Or did you not pay the mediocre money for the substitute service when you paid the land tax this year? ”

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Datang has implemented the rent adjustment system. In recent years, the imperial court has rarely used troops externally, and has also implemented inaction rule internally, so local governments rarely send people to serve in force. The officials were also willing to let the people pay for the annual service according to the standard of three feet of silk or three feet seven inches and five points of cloth per day.

Zhang Ruoxu is old, and he is an official who is honored by Zhishi, so he naturally does not have to worry about serving. And the ordinary wealthy families in the countryside, in order not to be guilty, will also take the initiative to hand over the labor money, that is, Yong, to the government every year when they pay the land tax. In his mind, although Zhang Qian was new to the Tang Dynasty, he was blind to all the rules of Datang, but with the help of the two brothers Guo Nu and Ren Cong, there should be no mistakes in this. Otherwise, Guo Nu and Ren Cong, who are junior disciples, are too careless!

Sure enough, as soon as his words fell, Ren Cong angrily gave an explanation, "I handed it over, how could I not hand it over!" I handed it in myself at the time. It is precisely because Yong has already been handed over that the second senior brother will fight with the bookstore! ”

"Why, didn't the county government put Yongjin into the account, or did someone greed for ink from it, and then framed your senior brother?" When Zhang Ruo heard this, he felt more and more incredible, and walked out briskly side by side with Zhang Qian, while digging into the bottom of the matter.

"It's in the account, but it's back today!" He didn't ask, but when he asked, Guo Nu's two eyes began to fire again, "The workshop clerk surnamed Wei said that when Weinan County was harvested, he didn't expect that there would be an autumn flood in the autumn, but now, according to the autumn flood situation, take precautions and make plans for next year's spring." Therefore, how did Yong collect it at the beginning, and how to return it now. Five days later, the senior brother must go to the yamen in person to enlist, otherwise, Hugh blames the official mansion for doing things more seriously! ”

This is obviously a deliberate attempt to find fault, no wonder Guo Nu'an couldn't hold back his anger and went crazy on the spot. However, Guo Nu is angry and strong, and he gets mad when he is wronged, which is understandable. Zhang Ruoxu is nearly half a hundred years old, but he will not be easily deceived by superficial phenomena.

Immediately, the old gentleman sped up his pace a few more points, and while walking back with Zhang Qian, he shook his head with a smile: "More real, how can it be more true?" really want to be more serious, why did they covet money in the first place and give Yongzhao a household registration? In the old man's opinion, this is just an excuse. In Weinan County, it is estimated that someone was instructed to take a look at it with a little color. Or someone thinks that with Zhao's side, there should be no chance to make a fortune, so don't take him! ”

"Take him, then he has to be qualified enough?" Ren Cong trotted to keep up, seven disagreed and eight dissatisfied. "Even Duan Shaoguogong's side is a share with real money. If he wants to buy shares, can he just rely on one mouth......"

"It's not the official surnamed Wei, it's the person behind him, or the back behind." After all, Zhang Ruoxu is well-informed, and while walking, he peels off the cocoon and pulls the threads, and peels off the truth behind the fog of "Xu officials come to find faults" clearly.

"This Wei Shuban is just a stone to explore the way. The people behind him either rely on "the county officials are not as good as the current management", or they have other supports. And the last one is already big enough to be on an equal footing with the Baoguo Mansion or the Guo Assassin Historian. But in any case, Yong Zhao didn't have to go out in person today, and it would be better for Guo to beat the surnamed Wei first. After beating the scouts who explored the path, next time, the main owner will send a tooth to come. At that time, Yongzhao might as well say goodbye! ”

"Yes!" Zhang Qianxing had a belly of knowledge of business management in the 21st century, but he was seriously inexperienced in how to deal with the extortion of the government in the 8th century, so he could only accept Zhang Ruoxu's proposal in full.

"The old man estimates that you don't benefit people at all, but you can't do it. But if you don't see the main owner, you will take out the benefits, and the other party will definitely get an inch, and these officials will also take the opportunity to rub oil from it. So, just be calm, just be calm! "I am afraid that Zhang Qian and the others will be young and frizzy, and the old gentleman will continue to add with a smile." Come, go slower, the old man is too old to keep up with you. Let's see the excitement from a distance for a while. Maybe before Guo Nu killed the pathfinder, the next wave of people from the main master will arrive! ”

As he spoke, he stopped, bent down and began to gasp for breath. When Zhang Qian and Ren Cong heard this, their mood was no longer as frightened as before, and they both slowed down and accompanied the old master to accumulate physical strength.

And the truth was as Zhang Ruoxu expected, before the three of them adjusted their breathing evenly, on the country dirt road leading to Zhang Qian's house, there was already another burst of people shouting and neighing. Immediately after, a familiar figure, surrounded by eight errand servants, rode straight to the gate of Zhang's house.

Originally, it was expected that the enemy plane would come first, and Zhang Ruoxu should be happy. Unexpectedly, the old master's face immediately changed greatly, and his brows wrinkled directly into a lump, "Zishou? How could it be him? ”

"It's Brother Zishou, impossible!" Zhang Qian also recognized this person from the back of the comer, Zhang Jiuling, one of the future Kaiyuan celebrities, and shook his head decisively.

Although Zhang Jiuling and him only have a one-sided acquaintance, Zhang Jiuling's name shines brightly in the history and literature books of the 21st century. If this person is a big corrupt official, and his appearance is so ugly, he will not be praised by future generations, and he will be upright and upright.

Zhang Ruoxu's home is not far from Zhang Qian's house, and the terrain is slightly higher. Therefore, just when the two of them were stunned and at a loss, Zhang Jiuling had already jumped off the mount within their sight, and came to the gate of Zhang Qian's courtyard in three steps and two steps, glaring angrily at Guo Nu and another middle-aged man who had stopped tearing because of his arrival.

"Brush!" As if a lightning bolt was shining into it, Zhang Ruoxu's eyes quickly became brighter than a mirror, "Zishou is wearing dark green today, with a silver belt around his waist, and he has been promoted!" It's a good time! (Note: dark green, silver belt, is the formal clothing of the Tang Dynasty six-rank officials)

Immediately, he stroked his beard again and smiled proudly, "Hehe, hehe, the blessed don't have to be busy, and the unblessed are in vain." Zishou today, eighty percent came for the art of alcohol disinfection. Hehe, you two young people are fast, don't wait for me, go back quickly. If it's too late, I'm afraid that the official surnamed Wei will really be scared to death! ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone had already seen from a distance that the clerk surnamed Wei was lying on the ground, kowtowing to Guo angrily. But Guo Nu didn't bother to pay attention to him, rushed into the courtyard quickly, and opened the main door for Zhang Jiuling with his own hands.
