Chapter 662: Tea Stalls Conversation
Acceptable?
The corners of Jiang Huan's mouth twitched slightly, how could it be possible to slander in his heart, if this was an official tax, why was his expression so stiff, he really coaxed him for a fool.
Compared to Jiang Huan's inconsistencies between what he said and what he said, and he didn't say things directly like others, Su Qibai was much more direct, he raised his eyebrows lightly, and said, "If this is really the case, then why is your face so strange?" Boss, don't think we're so young that we're so deceived. ”
Su Qibai, what you said is too straightforward, this will make people very embarrassed.
After all, Jiang Huan is the first regent of Qi State, and the current Taifu of Yue Kingdom, he still has his own set of other messy things about controlling people's hearts. Seeing that the tea stall vendor's face was a little unpleasant, his eyebrows trembled slightly, and he kicked Su Qibai with his foot instead. Su Qibai is a god, a god in the sky, or a particularly powerful one, so he is not like ordinary human beings like them, others will hurt if they kick their feet casually, Su Qibai didn't react to Jiang Huan's kick, and continued to drink tea leisurely, which made Jiang Huan have a headache.
Not only did he have a headache, but even the tea vendor, who sold tea, also had a headache.
God testifies, he would say this purely because he wanted to make their capital lively, and there was nothing bad about it. But why didn't this man listen? Why, why did you say your thoughts so directly?
The owner of the tea stall struggled for a while before he sighed leisurely, "The two sons are from Yueguo, and it's normal to not know what is going on here." Our Qi capital, since being taken over by King Chen, those taxes have been several times more than usual. After all, commercial taxes are only collected once a year, paid this year, once next year, and then once the year after next, and then once the year after, that's it. But what about them, there are still all kinds of celebrities who collect taxes, such as His Majesty King Chen's birthday, how much more should the whole people charge to celebrate King Chen's birthday. For example, Queen Chen, King Chen's favorite concubine's birthday, in order to prove King Chen's love for them, he also gave money to honor them. If all of this is done, there are all sorts of reasons. In short, only we ordinary people can't think of it, only they can't do it. We street vendors are having a miserable life. ”
"If it's a miserable life, then why tell us that Qidu's taxes are very small." Jiang Huan pondered for a while, and finally threw such a doubt to the tea stall vendor.
"I..." Before the tea stall vendor could finish speaking, he heard Su Qibai speak, "What else can it be, isn't it because the two of us are outsiders." ”
"Yes." When the tea stall vendor heard what Su Qibai said, his face turned red and white, he calmed his face, and said in a very small voice, "I'm sorry, the two sons, I didn't mean to." ”
"Boss, you didn't mean it, why do you keep apologizing to us."
Jiang Huan has a very good personality and speaks softly, which is especially easy to get the favor of others. When the tea stall vendor heard what Jiang Huan said, his mood was much calmer, he bowed his head slightly, and said thank you to Jiang Huan before continuing.
"Qi Du turned out to be the same as your Yue Kingdom, the people are good, the king is good, all in all, it is good at everything, and there is no bad place in the body. But what's the use of the king of Qidu, it's not like destroying the country. The tea stall vendor said, and said: "The current Qidu is all immersed, most of the original residents of Qidu have left, and the only ones left are us, the old, weak, sick and disabled, and those who have a deep relationship with Qidu." However, in the past few years, most of the old people who have feelings for Qi have passed away because of various diseases. The tea stall vendor sighed, "The old people of Qidu are sick, and the people outside are not justified because King Chen and King Wu took advantage of the change of prime minister in Qi, and they hate Chen and Wu, and even Qi Du hates them by the way." No, because of this, they don't come here. Now that there are finally newcomers to do business in Qidu, I want to make the tax smaller. After all, this tax is the lifeblood of us businessmen. ”
"That's what the boss said." When Su Qibai heard the words of the tea stall vendor, his face improved a lot, and he began to speak in the direction Jiang Huan thought.
Jiang Huan was relieved to see Su Qibai like this. As far as he is concerned, as long as Su Qibai is quiet and doesn't make any trouble for him, it doesn't matter what else he does.
After all, as long as you don't cause him trouble, it's fine, isn't it?
"Then I would like to take the liberty of asking, what does the grain store owner think of the former Emperor Qi of Qidu."
"What do you think?"
Either because the owner of the tea stall was a native of Qidu, or because of something else, he had a certain amount of favorability for Jiang Huan, a guy who was curious about the previous emperor of Qidu, that is, the former emperor of Qi, Lu Yan.
Of course, this is only one of the reasons why he has a good impression of Jiang Huan. As for the rest, it was because this alley was too deserted and there were too few people in the tea stall, so he would sit on a stool and chat with the two brothers Jiang Huan, Su and Qibai.
If there were a lot of people in the tea stall, he would not be idle enough to leave his business and chat with the two Su Qibai brothers.
"Yes, what does the boss think of the original emperor of Qi State?"
"I'm just an ordinary commoner, and I can't have the right to enter the palace to see the emperor at any time like those ministers or officials in the palace. Emperor Shun died, the first emperor succeeded to the throne, and he had to deal with a lot of messes, so he couldn't go out of the palace from time to time to observe the fame like other emperors of the Qi State. He will not come out unless there is a particularly big festival in the Qi Kingdom. Not only him, but also our little regent, is a capable one. It's a pity that the war made them go too fast. If they go so slowly, maybe Qidu will have a turnaround. ”
The tea stall vendor said, a tear in his eye. It can be seen that he really likes the previous emperors.
Jiang Huan glanced at him, thinking silently in his heart.
This tea stall owner seems to really like Qi Guo and his brother, the former emperor. If he likes it, so should everyone else.
It's a pity that my brother is now in Xiliang and can't hear what the hawker says. Otherwise, he would have been very happy to know that so many people liked him.
