"It's kind of interesting." Even if Jingzhao Yin's Mansion is now in decline, it is still the top of Taicang Eight Counties, and it is really interesting for the officials below to dare to say such things to the officials above, looking at the officialdom of Haoguo, only the people of Taicang Eight Counties dare to do this. There's no way, who let Jing Zhao Yin's Mansion not give up, and was bullied by the people below.

Li Xiao put one hand behind him, waved the other hand towards Zhou Shuyi, and said with a smile: "In the next few days, the official needs to live in Lin'an County all the time, and I hope that Lord Chang will take care of everything." ”

Zhou Shu, who was behind him, understood and motioned to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion official on the side to take a handle and move down the box of silver brought from the carriage. There is not much silver, and the box is not big, only about four or five hundred taels, of course, these are all the shares earned by Aunt Huang's tea stall in the past few days, and most of them are also rewarded by His Majesty the Emperor. Why is it rewarded, because of Li Xiao's poems, he has earned face for Hao in front of all countries, but the most important thing is because of the dramatic relationship between the emperor and Li Xiao.

Of course, few people know about this relationship, and even if they do, they won't take it seriously. Everyone will only think that His Majesty's cultivation has gone wrong, and some will even think that it is the little poet immortal who bewitches the saint.

Chang Laifu looked at the box on the ground, and the silver reflected the light of the sky in it made his eyes glow. There is a lot of flowing water in Lin'an County, but the population is large, dozens of people in the yamen are waiting to share the silver, dozens of people have families, and the yamen still needs to be handed over, layer after layer, and the final one can fall into his hands is only seven or eight hundred taels, which is a year. However, compared to the Yu Lu given by the imperial court, it is several times more. But how can anyone think that there is a lot of silver, after sitting in the seat of the county magistrate of Lin'an County for so many years, it is time to spend some silver and climb up the relationship.

Mei Youqian also subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the not very prominent Adam's apple moved twice. Chang Laifu is a county magistrate, and he can't share much, and he naturally doesn't have much to do as a county official, coupled with the natural disasters in recent years, Taicang Eight Counties have also been more or less affected. The harvest was less, the top was busy, and the silver was less, and naturally, he had less silver.

A group of Lin'an County officials all looked at it, I have to say, this little poet fairy is really generous, casually it is five hundred taels of silver, this is the total income of their class of officials for a year, but they also began to speculate, I don't know if these silver, they can get some from the county order and the county Cheng, I'm afraid it will be difficult, one hundred taels of silver, the county order takes half, the county Cheng takes the remaining half, the county lieutenant takes half of it, and so on, in the end, it is estimated that there are only a few taels of silver that can be their turn.

This is also at best, if Chang Laifu is more greedy, it is estimated that even edamame will not be able to turn their turn. There's no way, whoever makes them all officials, the officials look beautiful, but in fact they are just doing chores for them.

"Lord Joiner, this ......" Chang Laifu's eyes stared directly at the wooden box full of silver. Chang Xian Ling smiled with a sneer, and said in his heart that this little poet fairy is really good at being a person. No wonder the rich boy from Suzhou, Jiangnan Province, is generous.

Thinking about it, he licked his somewhat dry lips and stepped forward to touch the silver in front of him. But before he could take a few steps, he was stopped by Li Xiao's outstretched hand, and before he could open his mouth to ask, the latter said with a smile: "Hey, what is Lord Chang doing, all this silver is for the brothers." ”

As he spoke, he clasped his fists and arched his hands towards the yamen who were full of decadence written on their faces under the shade of the trees: "Today, the official is late, so the brothers have waited for a long time under the scorching sun, and you will take this silver to drink a cup of herbal tea, but don't dislike it." ”

In the scorching summer, it was noon, and the officials who had been sunburned instantly came to their senses. This is the first time, in the past, the officials or businessmen of Lin'an County will offer some so-called hearts, of course, because Yang Gongzi can't look down on this bit of silver, so these are basically in the hands of Chang Laifu and Mei Youqian, they don't have much to share with these low-level miscellaneous officials, but this young official who came this time actually said that he would give them that big box of silver, how not to be shocked.

The officials licked their lips, each swallowed their saliva, and a few rubbed their hands and wanted to step forward, but they shrank back before they could take a step, looking at each other, although Li Xiao said on the spot that these silver were all for them, but no one dared to accept them, a few hundred taels of silver, distributed to the dozens of officials present, each of whom could get a few dozen taels, not a lot, but these silver did not often come to the blessing of a few people, so where did they dare to accept it. He sighed softly and lowered his head, a little dry.

Obviously, the reaction of the officials made Chang Laifu very satisfied, the corners of his mouth were raised, and his face full of fat was full of success. The manager on the bright side of Lin'an County is still him, as long as he doesn't nod, let alone a box full of 100 taels, even if it is a few copper plates, these people behind him dare not accept it. He stood quietly and watched Li Xiao's good show.

Zhou Shuyi on the side frowned tightly, this Lin'an County is not as simple as it seems on the surface. For many years, although the eight counties of Taicang were under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Yin Mansion, they had never paid attention to these eight counties outside the city. I thought that this errand would not be troublesome, but judging from the current situation, it is estimated that it will not be too smooth. He looked at Li Xiao, who was behind him with his backhand, and couldn't help but worry about the latter, he had just arrived, and he was in trouble, and he didn't know how Li Gongzi would deal with it.

Chu Chu was very puzzled, why these people saw hundreds of taels of silver but were not moved at all, and still stood in place without saying a word, but the two people in front of them made people dislike it, one with a fat face and a sharp-beaked monkey gills, they were not good people at first glance.

Li Xiao touched Chu Chu, who was hiding behind him, and deliberately showed a surprised look. He was not surprised by the reaction of the officials, nor was he panicked at all, but the reaction of the officials made him very satisfied. He sighed, shook his head, and said, "Yes, it is the official who is inappropriate, so this silver will be handed over to Lord Chang for safekeeping, and when the next time the money is issued, it will be distributed to you together." ”

He looked at Chang Laifu, smiled, and continued: "These silver will be handed over to Chang Master first, you don't have to use it for yourself, this is a little heart from this official to his brothers." ”

As he spoke, he went to take out a piece of silver, and shook it in the skylight, revealing the official family's good notes. A large part of the silver rewarded by the emperor has not yet been officially sealed, and I don't know if the emperor forgot it or did it on purpose. It's not in the way, anyway, there is Aunt Huang's tea stall silver, but this time it can be regarded as coming in handy, these silver with official seals can be used, and it happens to be used.

Chang Laifu smiled and nodded, with a look of success. The officials stared at the ingot of silver, their eyes were red but they couldn't do anything, and the official seal on it fell deeply in their eyes.

Li Xiao smiled faintly and didn't care. He put the silver down as if it were nothing in his eyes. Then he waved his hand and motioned for Zhou Shu to move forward. Zhou Senjun took two steps forward, took out two brocade boxes from his arms, and put them in the former's hands.

"Chang Da's family has a big business, and he has always looked down on the gift of the official." He handed over the two brocade boxes to the county Cheng Mei Youqian and the county lieutenant Ding Tian next to Chang Laifu respectively, and then said: "A little heart, the Lantian jade cup of Lanyue Fang, I heard that the wine poured in this cup has a unique flavor to drink. ”

The two hesitated for a moment, tiptoeing to the result.

The Blue Moon Workshop in Jingshi City sells all valuables, mainly high-end items such as Lantian jade pendants, jade cups, bracelets, etc., each of which is worth a lot of money, according to the two Lantian jade cups at this time, at least one hundred taels to start.

"It's really generous for this lord to join the army." The two of them secretly said in their hearts.

Mei Youqian glanced at Chang Laifu, and then at the brocade box in his hand, although the latter was unhappy, he still nodded patiently, which allowed the former to take the brocade box under his hands. As for Ding Tianer, he took a step back without leaving a trace and put the brocade box into his sleeve. At the same time, looking at Li Xiao's eyes, there was less vigilance, more gratitude, and a little pity.

Chang Laifu didn't speak, and there was a hint of displeasure on his face.

Li Xiao looked at Chang Laifu, smiled, and said: "Don't think too much about Lord Chang, this official is not digging into your corner, it's just that this official has been picking in the Blue Moon Fang for a long time, and he really can't pick one that is suitable for Chang Daren, so he has no choice but to give up." Otherwise, if you insist on finding one and giving it to adults, I am afraid that you will fall into the identity of Chang adults. ”

What does it mean, on the surface, it means that the objects in the Blue Moon Fang are not worthy of Changlaifu, but in fact, it doesn't mean this to others. What kind of place is Blue Moon Fang, there are few people present who don't know, the objects in it are all liked by the ladies in the palace, and more of them are for the royal family and the family, if it is not worthy of frequent blessings, how can it be.

Chang Laifu smiled, and there was a trace of gloom on his fat face. He coughed and said with a smile: "Li Senjun has rushed all the way, so let's go back and rest first, Xiao Dingzi, you take Li Senjun down to rest." ”

County Lieutenant Ding Tianer had a displeased expression on his face when he heard Chang Laifu call him, but it quickly disappeared, but it still fell into Li Xiao's eyes. Li Xiao clenched his fists and arched his hand, thanked the former, and then said to Chang Laifu: "Lord Chang, this time Your Majesty also asked this official to bring more than a dozen officials from Jingzhao Yin Mansion to assist, after all, it is Your Majesty's intention, Your Majesty's errand, we can't refuse, and I hope that Lord Chang will arrange a place for them to live." ”

Chang Laifu arched his hand, explained a few words casually, and then turned to leave, Mei Youqian was a little embarrassed, but he still waved his hand to signal a few officials to come over, lifted the box full of silver that Li Xiao put on the ground, and left with the former.

The officials also felt that they had nothing to do and left one after another, but a few of them turned around and thanked Li Xiao and his party before leaving.

"Childe, Shu Yi doesn't know what the meaning of what you just did is?" Zhou Shuyi saw everyone leaving, found a vacancy, and couldn't help but step forward and ask.

Li Xiao waved his hand, pretending to be mysterious, making a gesture and booing.
