Chapter 102: Eradication
"Isn't it a bit arrogant for the colt to say that? Although Xia Guan is just a minor official, he is also loyal and patriotic, serves His Majesty, and has nothing to do with the Zheng family. ”
Zheng Tao asked mockingly.
He was still pretending just now, but seeing Zhao Yin revealing his bottom like this, he simply didn't need to pretend anymore.
He also acted in accordance with the regulations of the household department, and he never made any mistakes, but he wanted to see what reason this kid could find to eradicate himself?
The emperor has always attached great importance to his reputation, and he will never allow the indiscriminate killing of court officials, even if that person is a concubine.
Besides, the power of their seven major families is huge, if this kid wants to give himself a trumped-up charge, other officials will not agree.
If the horse relies on the emperor's favor and wants to bring him down, it is not so easy!
"If this colt wants your life, it's easier than crushing an ant!"
Zhao Yin's fingers tapped on the table for a while, and said lightly.
At the same time, he was still looking the old boy up and down, to see if he could get some benefits before killing him?
"If you want to sue the king, then please!"
Zheng Tao snorted coldly and made a gesture of please.
The constitution of the household department is that the appropriation is only allocated when the potatoes are purchased, and he also acts according to the regulations, even if the emperor can't find fault with him!
"Hahaha......!"
Zhao Yin couldn't help laughing, "Does Zheng Shilang think that this horse is a child?" Only know the complaint? ”
He put down his overlapping legs and stood up, pacing back and forth in the yamen, "You take yourself too seriously, just cut off your head for such a big thing, is it worth alarming the emperor?" ”
"Humph......!"
After hearing Zhao Yin's words, Zheng Tao suddenly felt apprehensive in his heart, but he still pretended to be calm and snorted coldly.
If someone else said this, he would definitely think it was bragging.
But he had seen this kid's methods.
None of the people who impeached him in Yushitai ended well, and they all lost their positions and returned to their hometowns.
Today, this kid is smiling so evilly, and he doesn't know what bad water he is holding.
However, I was relieved to remember that I had always acted impartially and should not have left any handles.
"Zheng Shilang, the potato cellar is almost dug now, why don't you buy it in batches and allocate some money to the donkey first?"
An official who took office, seeing the tense posture of the two, started to make peace.
He has just taken office, and he is soft-spoken, and he can't do the affairs of the household department, so he can only speak and advise.
"Potato promotion, it is imperative, the emperor attaches great importance to it, there must be no mistakes, otherwise, we are all in danger, it is better for us to start the purchase today, the cellar dug will be full, and the rest will be purchased in a few days?"
Another official sitting in the yamen said.
"It seems that there are still a lot of sensible people in the household department, just for the sake of your persuasion, this horse will give you a chance, if you can send 100,000 potatoes to my house today, maybe I will keep you alive!"
Zhao Yin looked at him contemptuously and said lightly.
A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, but his words were fierce.
"After the potato cellar is all dug up, the lower official will send someone to buy it, and before that, the lower official will not dare to disobey the order!"
Zheng Tao did not hesitate and categorically refused.
The colt is too arrogant, and he even said that he would keep himself alive, is his life in his hands?
Bragging and not making drafts?
Even the emperor can't say that he will cut himself, just cut himself, he counts as a batch?
"In that case, this pony is not welcome, you see what this is?"
After Zhao Yin finished speaking, he took out a few pieces of dry and hard things from his cuffs and threw them on the case.
"It's nothing more than a few slices of dried potatoes, I don't know what the colt means?"
Zheng Tao picked up one of them, looked at it for a while, and threw it back on the table disapprovingly.
Take a few slices of dried potatoes and it's like asking for your own life?
Did this kid get kicked in the head by a donkey?
"Not only can these potatoes be stored in the cellar, but they can also be cut into slices and dried in the sun, so that they do not take up space and can be stored for a long time, and in winter, they can be ground into flour and taste comparable to rice noodles!"
Zheng Tao thought that this kid was playing some tricks to yin himself, but he didn't expect that he would introduce himself to the storage method here.
Seeing this, his originally hanging heart was completely let go.
"Pony, your preservation method, the household department has already tried it, and it's not fresh anymore!"
Zheng Tao thought he was showing off, and couldn't help but sneer.
"I just want to ask, when are the potatoes in the field going to be purchased?"
However, this kid's thinking jumped very fast, and he was obviously talking about dried potatoes just now, but now he went back to the original question.
"According to the current progress, less than ten days, if it is a rainy day, affecting the excavation, it is even more difficult to say, after waiting for the cellar to be dug, I will naturally go to the house to buy, the horse just need to wait patiently!"
Zheng Tao proudly faced the door and made a gesture of please.
It turned out that he didn't have any handle, so he ran here to make a big fuss, which was really arrogant and arrogant.
If you don't let this kid suffer a little today, you won't be able to go to heaven in the future?
"That's okay, I'll go back first......!"
After Zhao Yin saw Zheng Tao's expression, he was not angry, and walked straight in the direction of his hand.
However, as soon as he walked out of the door, he paused, as if he suddenly remembered something, patted his head, and said to the person behind him: "I forgot to tell you just now, when the household department goes to harvest potatoes in a few days, you can only collect the dried potatoes you just saw!" ”
"You're ......! What do you mean? ”
Zheng Tao looked at the dried potatoes on the table, and a bad premonition arose.
"Since yesterday, this horse has asked all the tenant farmers to stop their work and start cutting potato slices and drying them for winter food!"
Zhao Yin pinched his fingers indifferently and calculated, "If nothing else, I should have cut one or two hundred acres now, and it will be almost cut in two or three days. ”
"Be merciful to the horse, be merciful to the horse......!"
As soon as Zheng Tao heard that the potatoes were dried potatoes, he immediately panicked.
The potato promotion plan is related to the economic lifeline of the entire Tang Dynasty, if the potatoes cannot be promoted, then the people will continue to starve, and the emperor will not have food and grass to send troops, internal and external troubles, and the consequences are unimaginable.
Therefore, the emperor and the court all attach great importance to this matter.
If, because he deliberately delayed, Zhao Yin damaged the potatoes, then his head would not be protected!
