Chapter 18: The Inferior Nature of Men
When Tie Xinyuan woke up from his contemplation, he saw Zhao Wan sitting beside him with the child in his arms, his big eyes filled with coldness. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"After thinking about state affairs, shouldn't I tell this queen when did Wei Chi Zhuozhuo start calling himself a concubine?"
"Is there one?" Tie Xinyuan thought hard for a while, and he didn't remember when Wei Chi Zhuozhuo called himself like this, didn't he usually call himself a micro-minister, or a slave?
Whether Tie Xinyuan was pretending to be stupid, or really didn't pay attention, Zhao Wan could still see it, she was very sure that her husband really didn't notice.
The cold mist in his eyes receded, and he found a thin blanket to cover Tie Xinyuan's body, gritted his teeth and said, "I was originally a calm character, but someone was pushing me alive into the shrew pile." ”
"I don't have ......"
"I know you didn't say this to you, my father is an open-minded person, and my mother has always been a woman with a small belly.
What I used to show you was the generosity of my father, and what you will see in the future will be the small belly chicken intestines from my mother's concubine. ”
Seeing that Zhao Wan was a little angry, Tie Xinyuan reached out and touched Zhao Wan's face and comforted: "I think too much." ”
This kind of thing is not easy to explain much, and explaining too much is a manifestation of weakness, and it is comforting to say important words lightly.
"But it's always a nuisance." Zhao Wan felt very aggrieved, and the dead woman was using her life to entangle her husband, which made Zhao Wan's self-confidence collapse very much.
"It's hard to explain this kind of thing to Yu Chi Zhuozhuo, if it's just a little thing between men and women, just cut through the mess quickly, the problem is that there is a Khotanese royal family behind Yu Chi Zhuozhuo, this group of people doesn't need me to say that you know that they are very important to us.
Now, those people regard my attitude towards Wei Chi Zhuozhuo as their attitude towards the Khotanese royal family.
It has put me in a dilemma, so I have to tense it like this, and it may be solved after a long time, but now, it is not appropriate to say anything. ”
Zhao Wan leaned on Tie Xinyuan's arms and sobbed: "The concubine knows that the best solution is to marry her, but the concubine is ......."
Tie Xinyuan wiped away Zhao Wan's tears with a smile and said: "You don't know what a bastard I am, if I am really a person who likes beautiful women when I see them, you can't stop me even if you cry to death."
Now I only have one wife, and it's not the result of my mother's obstruction, nor the result of you being a shrew, it's my own unwillingness......
We've been together since we were kids, and when I first saw you on the city walls, I felt very comfortable, even though you were stealing my pears.
The feelings between people are sometimes very delicate, even if they are ugly and have a bad temper, they like it, they don't like it, it's useless to look like a fairy, at most they just want to take advantage. ”
Zhao Wan snorted, her brows furrowed, this action Tie Xinyuan loved to death, she did this when the two of them were sitting on the edge of the Bianhe River and were stupid.
Just as he was about to let Zhao Wan review it twice more and have a good aftertaste, the expression on Zhao Wan's face changed again: "You men think so?" ”
Tie Xinyuan looked around, but couldn't find a black pot on his back, and Tie Er entered his room with a big pot of things, smelling like mutton.
He likes to take advantage of women, and this kind of thing can't be pushed to him as a Mamluk eunuch knight, so he has to pretend to sigh blankly and say: "Yes, men are so virtuous, and what they can't get is always more curious......
What, you take a good look at your son, I'll go and see how Ouyang Xiu cheated those turtles of their money and food......"
Ignoring Zhao Wan's call from behind, he fled in a panic!
When he went out, he saw Yu Chi Zhuozhuo leaning against the door of his house, smiling like a little fox, Tie Xinyuan glared at her fiercely, and left the City Lord's Mansion with a faster pace.
When I walked through the square and down the street, I took a long breath and walked through the market with the guards, listening to the flattering greetings of my die-hard people, and then I regained a little confidence.
Entered the Xiangguo Mansion through the back door, there were two sword and axe men in ambush here, and there was no need to report it, Tie Xinyuan went directly through the back garden of Ouyang Xiu's house to see how he worked.
There was a large group of warblers and swallows in the garden, and there were two people who were taking a nap with open chests, Tie Xinyuan glanced at it, it was very majestic, it seemed that Ouyang Xiu's hobbies were very consistent with his own.
"Hami is famous for its contract, and Hami Money is a well-known good businessman, who values their reputation more than their lives.
Some time ago, I heard the rumors that Qian Zhuang would rather lose money than ensure the interests of merchants, right?
Keep your money in the bank, take it as you like, and pay a small fee for keeping it.
Rest assured, with the Golden Valley and Agate Beach as guarantees, how can the money be so that you can't exchange it?
Look, this is the newly minted money from my Hami bank, how about it? Is it more beautiful than any silver or copper coin you have seen?
Let me tell you, these coins are forged by the hammer of the craftsman, and Hugh says that the price of copper, the price of silver, and the price of labor alone, is enough to make you laugh and crook your mouth.
Put your money in the bank, and then exchange these copper and silver coins according to the loss, which is not only easy to store, but also easy to use......"
Ouyang Xiu's clear voice came from the front hall, and Tie Xinyuan felt that he didn't need to get involved.
Hami made a huge and friendless money village, storage and loan one-stop, Hami's merchants are like cow hairs, how much copper and silver are not enough for them to call now is the time of lack of money, the money bank cabinet can not now dig out all the gold of gold, all the agate of the agate beach to be picked up and deposited into the money village as the principal.
All the officials went crazy and scavenged for silver and copper coins.
They suddenly discovered that the most profitable business in the world was the money bank, and there was no one.
After other people's money enters the bank, first come to a fire consumption, and then add lead, zinc and tin to recast into metal ingots, and finally put it under the water hammer to hammer into a copper plate or silver plate, and then collect a cent of the storage fee of the owner of the money, and finally lend out two cents of interest......
As soon as this most primitive bank appeared, Ouyang Xiu was stunned by its powerful efficiency in defrauding money, and then devoted himself to the construction of the bank, and he never got tired of it.
Listening to Ouyang Xiu's hearty smile, it seems that this old man has succeeded again, no wonder, there are still twenty iron-filled five-hundred-pound hollow silver balls and ten five-hundred-pound lead-filled hollow gold balls in the money village, as long as there are people who doubt the strength of the money village, Ouyang Xiu will take them to the silver vault to see.
This kind of high-tech scam created using casting technology has attracted countless wealthy people one after another.
The old guy is in the middle of a galloping mind, and it may not be good to disturb people at this time.
Tie Xinyuan planned to go back to the back garden again......
This time, there are more singers from the Western Regions who open their chests and pretend to sleep, and there are more dancers, with breasts exposed, breastless backs, and a huge ass pouting there pretending to have just woken up.
It's good-looking, but Tie Xinyuan didn't stop, and walked out of the back door of Xiangguo's Mansion while admiring it.
The scenery on the street is very beautiful, and the fragrant wood has bloomed into small blue flowers, which is very expensive, but as soon as this thing blooms, its taste changes, and it is difficult to say, mainly attracting flies, attracting insects such as the big sister of flowers, and only when the flowers fall and produce fruits the size of rice grains, the taste will become fragrant again.
Tie Xinyuan smiled and looked at the most beautiful scenery on the street.
The scenery here is not fragrant wood, nor tall willow trees, but a few tax collectors with wicker baskets on their backs, who are walking the streets and alleys to collect money for Tie Xinyuan.
The tax collector always has a bad attitude, although just now a tax collector kicked and scolded a poor ghost and found a handful of copper coins and threw them into the wicker basket, Tie Xinyuan still did not get angry, which was within his tolerance.
I was just about to praise this iron-faced and ruthless tax collector, but then I found that this group of guys got under a melon shed, holding someone's watermelon and nibbling on their faces full of juice.
Before leaving, he also grabbed a handful of copper coins from the wicker basket to pay the bill, which made Tie Xinyuan unbearable, how could they eat and drink with Lao Tzu's money?
It just so happened that the poor ghost who had been beaten was still crying helplessly on the side, and he said that the tax collector had no conscience, and he had earned such a little money today, and he was robbed by them.
Tie Xinyuan moved his fingers, and immediately a large group of wolf-like guards rushed up, held down the few unknown tax collectors, and dragged Tie Xinyuan down in front of him.
The tax collector at the head naturally knew Tie Xinyuan, and knew what he had just done, so he hurriedly said loudly: "Wang, it's not that the little vicious likes to beat him, this guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he makes a lot of money on the streets, but he never pays taxes."
The little one looked for him for two months before he caught him, and he started a little heavier, but it was for taxes! “
It seems to make a lot of sense, Tie Xinyuan looked at the poor ghost who had been frightened, and found that this guy's eyes flickered, and he didn't say a word of justification, and it was estimated that what the tax collector said should be right.
Tie Xinyuan saw that the people around him had come to see the excitement, so he cleared his throat and said: "Beating people and punishing people is the business of the government and the officials, who allowed you to beat people on the street?" Those who know understand that you are paying taxes, and those who don't know think that I, a Hami official, like to bully people.
Forget it today, if something like this happens again in the future, be careful that the board is not forgiving.
In addition, did you pay someone when you ate melons just now? It's not okay to eat and drink for nothing! “
The tax collector was stunned for a moment, his face became pale, and he knew that the matter of taking money from the wicker basket just now was seen by the king, and hurriedly said: "This is to make up, this is to be made!" ”
After scolding the tax collector, Tie Xinyuan said to the poor ghost: "It's just paying taxes, what are you running?" If you make money, you should pay taxes, and don't all these taxes end up on you?
We have a lot of projects in Hami now, whether it is building roads, building cities, or repairing canals, you are the ones who will benefit in the end.
This time it should be a long memory, and I won't owe taxes in the future. ”
As he spoke, Tie Xinyuan took a few copper coins from the guards, put them in the hands of the poor ghost who kowtowed like garlic, and said, "Take them to eat." ”
After dealing with this matter lightly, Tie Xinyuan left the scene, faintly hearing the poor ghost's grateful cry, and the heartfelt admiration of the rest of the audience, feeling that today's white dragon fish suit is very worthwhile, and the prestige of a king is shaped little by little.
