Chapter Thirty-Six: Leng Liang is Blocked

Jia Yi and Jia Er were in the envious eyes of the other house slaves in the inn, and they helped the old man Lin to walk slowly in the direction of the county office, Lin Ruyu was embarrassed to go out because she thought of her about to marry Jia Yi again, so she could only let Lin Baoyu follow and take care of her all the way.

In fact, the Lin Mansion is not very far from the county government, and after walking a stick of incense, I came to the door of the county government.

The county government is not tall or mighty, but it gives people a sense of vicissitudes, mottled doorposts, dilapidated buildings, and at a glance, you can know that the county government has not been repaired for a long time.

In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, Li Er's rule was extremely strict, and he could allow officials to participate in business, but he could not tolerate the fact that officials were corrupt.

There were two officials standing at the door of the county office, the clothes of the officials were clean and tidy, and the knives in their waists were also very new.

"Please ask the two officials to show the county officials, and the second child will come to my two slaves to buy good papers."

"Wait a minute."

One of the officials knew the reason very well, dropped a sentence, turned around and entered the county office, and after a while, someone came out.

"Come with me."

Facing the gate of the county government is a huge courtyard, in the middle of the courtyard is the lobby of the county government, that is, the place where the court is promoted to try the case, and there is a small door on both sides of the lobby, which leads to the back office.

The four men followed the official and walked through the small door on the left, but the official had no intention of entering, and it seemed that he would not follow up.

When Jia Yi walked to the side of the officer, he said to the officer with a smile: "Thank you for the official guidance." After speaking, he took out dozens of copper coins from his sleeve and stuffed them into the hands of the officials.

This kind of behavior is not considered bribery, because the official is not an official, but can only be regarded as a dot, so that the official can give a certain amount of help within the scope of his ability.

Sure enough, the official quickly put the money into his arms, and said to Jia Yi with a straight face: "The county official is on vacation today, and he is not in the county office, but the main book is here, and he can handle it if he puts good documents." ”

After the official finished speaking, he turned his head and left, Jia Yi did frown, you must know that the king of Hades is aggressive, and the little ghosts are difficult, especially this kind of small official with a little power is the most difficult to do, and it is not easy to say how much to give or less, but it is cool that there is no county official.

Entering the door is a small courtyard, a house in the small courtyard, and the largest house in the middle, should be the office of the second-in-command master book in the county government.

The four of them walked into the main bookkeeper's office and found that there was not only one person in this room, one of them was sitting behind a huge low table, and the other was sitting on a futon at the bottom of the head.

"Who are you, what are you looking for this book?"

"The second child is the owner of the Sifang Inn, and he came here today to bother the master to apply for good documents for my two house slaves and enter the household registration."

Hearing Old Man Lin's words, the master bookkeeper sitting behind the low table didn't have a big reaction, but the middle-aged man in a fancy dress sitting at the bottom of the room shrank his pupils sharply, and he didn't shy away from Jia Yi and the others, and came directly to the master book and whispered.

With the middle-aged man's whisper, the main bookkeeper's gaze at Old Man Lin began to change from one to another.

"Oh, I'm really sorry, now the county government's good documents have been used up, printed by the higher-ups, and now the county government's money is almost used, why don't you wait a while, and after the court pays the salary, you will come again?" The master bookkeeper said to Old Man Lin with a smile.

"This ......" Old Man Lin hesitated a little, he knew that this was the master bookkeeper opening his mouth to ask for money, but it was the first time he had come to do this kind of thing, and he didn't know what the market was.

"Boy Jia Yi, meet Lord Bookkeeper." Jia Yi took a step forward, arched his hand at the main book, and then said, "I don't know how much money is needed for this good book?" ”

"It's not a lot of money, but now there is no penny on the county government's books, and although this master book has the heart to help you, it is really powerless."

When Jia Yi heard this, he knew that this master book must be preparing to open his mouth, but he didn't know how much he would want.

"As the people of Duqu County, we should naturally be exempted from the worries of the Lord Bookkeeper, so that the Lord Bookkeeper can better work hard for the people of Duqu County."

High-sounding words, Jia Yi doesn't need to make a draft, he just opens his mouth, and he says it more beautifully than anyone else, but there is only one meaning after these beautiful words: You talk nonsense, say as much as you want.

"But thou hast underestimated this book, and it is within the duty of the book to ask for the lives of the people, and thou shalt not take a penny from the people." The face that was still smiling before the main book suddenly darkened, and put on a posture that Lao Tzu was a serious official: "Please go back, and after the paperwork is completed, I will send someone to inform you." ”

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the rhythm of preparing to talk slowly in private, Jia Yi knew that there would be no result if he stood here until tomorrow morning, so he simply said goodbye to the master bookkeeper and went home to wait for the news.

After Jia Yi and the others left, the chief bookkeeper asked the middle-aged man: "I have also heard of this Sifang Inn, I heard that it has been in full swing in our Duqu County recently, and I have not eaten the braised pork and stew, but I have eaten some of the three-star wine, which is really wonderful." ”

"Big brother, the two dishes of this Sifang Inn plus this fine wine can bring them at least ten or twenty net profits every day, if you can let them hand over the production process of these two dishes or fine wine to the younger brother, I believe that our inn can also make money every day."

"How much profit there is?" The master book was taken aback, their family also has an inn, at most a few dollars of profit per day, this is still when the business is good, I didn't expect a Sifang inn to earn more than their inn in three days.

"That's nature."

"I'm afraid it's not so easy to get them to hand over the secret recipe." The master book felt that no one was a fool, and it was impossible to give up the hen that lays golden eggs for the sake of two house slaves.

"Hehe, the eldest brother doesn't know, the food and wine of this Sifang Inn are made by Jia Yi, a slave of the Lin family, according to the younger brother's inquiry, this Lin master once asked Jia Yi to promise three conditions, before he will give him a good document, the first is to marry the eldest lady of the Lin family, now the Sifang Inn is in full swing in Duqu County, Lin Dasco naturally hopes that the two will get married as soon as possible, but if there is no good paperwork, his daughter will forcibly marry Jia Yi, then his daughter will naturally become a slave, so ......"

"Haha, it seems that even if this Lin Dasco is reluctant to give up the secret recipe of the food and wine, he has to let go, after all, no one wants his daughter to become a house slave, even if it is his own house slave, this is not good."

"Exactly."

"In that case, take the time to talk to them." The main book has a posture of Zhizhu in his hand, and it seems that he saw a large number of copper coins flying into their house.

"Then I'll go now."

Jia Yi and his entourage had just arrived home, and before Old Man Lin was ready to comfort Jia Yi, there was a loud knock outside the door.

"Here we are." Jia Er screamed, and Sa Yazi ran to the door and opened the door, but when he saw the visitor, he was stunned on the spot, a little confused about what he was doing here.

"I'm here to talk to your master about releasing good papers."

"Let him in." Jia Yi didn't wait for Old Man Lin to speak, and let the middle-aged man walk in first.

"Contemptible Zhu Yong, on behalf of my eldest brother Zhu Zhi, who is the chief bookkeeper of this county, came to talk to you about the good paperwork." didn't beat around the bush, and went straight to the point, which shows that Zhu Yong is also a little impatient.

"If you have anything to say, you're here." Jia Yi knew early on that this would be the case, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but have a hint of ridicule, and his words were even more ugly.

"It seems that you don't welcome me very much, so if that's the case, then I'll take my leave." After speaking, Zhu Yong turned his head and left, but there really wasn't any stop.

"Jia Yi, you are too reckless, how can you talk like that." As soon as Old Man Lin glanced at the people who came and said to leave, he suddenly felt that Jia Yi had done a bit too much.

"Master, don't you see what they mean?"

"Don't you just want some money? Our Lin family doesn't lack that now. ”

"Money? I don't think they look down on our money, they come for our braised pork, the secret recipe for stew, and the method of making wine. ”

As soon as Jia Yi's words came out, everyone in the room looked at him with wide eyes, all of them were full of disbelief, you know, this method of making wine and the secret recipe of those two dishes, but the capital of the Sifang Inn to settle down, how can it be easily given to others.

"That's good." Old Man Lin ran out of ideas for a while, the secret recipe couldn't be given, Jia Yi and Jia Er's good paperwork still had to be done, and he was in a dilemma, but he only thought about it for a moment, and then thought about everything clearly: "Jia Yi, you give them the formula, as long as you can enter the household registration, with your ability, I think you can also let Ruyu live a good life." ”

"Master, don't worry, let them taste my methods first." Jia Yi heard Mr. Lin's words, his heart was very moved, he was able to say these words to show that he really regarded Jia Yi as his own person, not a house slave, since Mr. Lin is affectionate, then Jia Yi will not be unrighteous, not to mention the capital for him to stand in the world, if you want, it depends on your ability.
