As soon as Su Botong entered the room, he immediately bowed his waist at a right angle, and his face was full of sneers. "Township Chief Song, seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, I will give you some small gifts." Su Botong handed a list to Song Wenjian.

"Oh? Master Su, there are still three months to go until the Mid-Autumn Festival, and you can calculate it quite quickly. Song Wenjian took the list and looked at it, and his eyes lit up all of a sudden. Hehe, but I like it. ”

The main income of the officials of the Yue Dynasty is to collect all kinds of gray income, like Song Wenjian, a township chief, there is no money, if you don't rely on other income, how can you maintain your own life, how can you ask for help?

Only a person like his father, who only earns a few dozen taels a year, and has no other income, has no way to maintain the normal expenses of the Song family.

The list reads two hundred taels of silver, one horse of silk, ten zhang of cloth, one pair of pearls, ten chickens and ducks, and two pigs......

"As long as the township chief likes it." Su Botong said with a smile.

"However, Master Su, your gift is a bit thin, when will you give me a heavy gift?" Song Wenjian smiled treacherously. He knew what Su Bo was doing, how could he not slaughter it at this time?

"Ahh Su Botong's forehead immediately sweated.

Damn, who said that Song Wenjian is a fool? He's better than a fox. Tanuki and foxes. Raccoon dog.

"Township Chief, don't forget your previous promise. When I become the head of the township in the future, I will definitely give you a heavy gift. Su Botong gritted his teeth.

The current Yangqing Township is different from before, if he becomes the head of the township in the future, not only can he do tricks and feet in the collection of taxes and grain, but also can be greedy for ink in commercial taxes, why not give gifts to Song Wenjian?

After Song Wenjian came to Yangqing Township, he privately approached Su Botong, hinting that as long as Su Botong cooperated with his work, after Song Wenjian left, Song Wenjian recommended Su Botong to be the head of the township.

Song Wenjian glanced at Su Botong and said, "What's the matter?" Master Su, do you want me to leave Yangqing Township quickly? ”

"No, it's not." Su Botong hurriedly shook his head. "I'm just afraid that the township chief and nobles will forget more things and forget our previous regulations."

Song Wenjian said: "Don't worry, when my father's term of office is up, if I can still become a county minister, I will return to the county seat." Master Su, you also know that Yangqing Township belongs to my father's supervision, and nothing can happen during this sensitive period. ”

Hmph, if something happens to your father Song Hua, you can't be the head of this township. Su Botong said secretly in his heart.

But Su Botong didn't dare to say it, "Yes, if there is anything that the township chief needs me to do in the future, just tell me." ”

Su Botong was a little afraid of Song Wenjian, and Mo Weibao was so good that people were killed by Song Wenjian. There are also Luogang bandits who were also destroyed by Song Wenjian, and it is better to provoke less of this kind of person.

Song Wenjian said: "Master Su, don't worry, as long as you obediently listen to me, you will still be the head of this Yangqing Township in the future." ”

"I must listen to Township Chief Song." Su Botong hurriedly said.

Song Wenjian didn't want to talk more to Su Botong, so he sent him away after chatting a few words.

A person like Su Botong who forgets his righteousness, Song Wenjian will not value him.

At that time, Su Botong thought that he had come to Yangqing Township to be the head of the township and did nothing, so he deliberately ignored it.

Later, Song Wenjian collected business taxes in Wei Town, so that Su Botong could see a strong way to make money. So when Song Wenjian approached Su Botong and asked him to help, Su Botong agreed and proposed to be the head of the township in the future, and he was not willing to lend money and grain to Yangqing farmers at one and a half times the interest.

Hmph, this kind of villain behavior, I will do the same. You Su Botong want to be the head of the township in the future, it's hard to say.

Dai Wang saw Su Botong leave and walked in from the outside. "Township Chief, Su Botong is not a good person, don't accept his gifts."

"Hehe, since he is a villain, then I won't talk to him about morality, accept his gifts, and don't necessarily do things for him." Song Wenjian said with a smile.

"Township Chief, you are really treacherous." Dai Wang sighed.

When Dai Wang saw the things sent by Su Botong just now, his eyes turned red. He thought that if the township chief took the livestock, everyone would be able to eat tomorrow.

But thinking that the township chief accepted Su Botong's gift, he wanted to do something for a bad person like Su Botong, and he was unwilling in his heart.

Now I hear the township chief say that he accepted Su Botong's gift and didn't do anything for the other party, is there such a thing in this world?

"Township Chief, you accepted Su Botong's gift and didn't help him, is this reasonable?" Dai Wang asked wryly.

Song Wenjian smiled treacherously: "Dai Wang, who stipulates that you have to do things after receiving gifts?" Also, I'm not treacherous, I'm shrewd, you know? Tell someone to kill chickens and ducks at night, and kill a pig tomorrow. ”

"Yes, yes, Township Chief, you're too shrewd." When Dai Wang heard that he had something to eat, he immediately laughed.

After a while, Dai Wang hesitated and asked, "Township Chief, now that you have helped the farmers pay taxes and grain, how much grain will you pay back next year?" Can you make the same agreement with Mo Weibao before, one times five interest, is it okay? ”

In the past few days, the elders of various gangs have been annoyed by the farmers in the village, and the people are worried that Song Wenjian will charge twice the interest money.

Song Wenjian is like a god in Yangqing Township, who is afraid of anyone who sees it, if he wants to charge twice the interest, the people will not dare not agree.

Song Wenjian heard Dai Wang say this, and said with a smile: "Dai Wang, do you think I am the one who exploits the villagers?" ”

"Township chief, you're not, I'll just say, how can the township chief pit the poor villagers. I'm going to tell them right now that I'm going to pay back five times the interest this time next year. Dai Wan turned around and was about to run out.

Song Wenjian hurriedly called Dai Wang: "Dai Wang, don't talk nonsense. ”

"Ah, Township Chief, are you going to charge twice as much interest?" Dai Wang's face was sad.

"No, I only charge a little interest." Song Wenjian said: "That is to say, if the villagers lend me a stone of money and grain, they will pay me back a stone and a bucket of money and grain by this time next year." ”

"What?" Dai Wan was taken aback. "Township Chief, if that's the case, you're at a loss."

Song Wenjian shook his head and said, "The villagers are too poor, and I don't want them to be too burdened." If it weren't for the fact that the food given to them was not cherished, I would not have asked them to return it. ”

Dai Wang and the others knew that a lot of those taxes and grains belonged to the Mo family, but in their hearts, what the officials got was the officials' owns, and the people could not take possession of them.

At that time, Song Wenjian heard such a simple voice of the people, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the people of the Moon Dynasty could win the Good Person Award.

"No, village chief, you have to pay back what you borrowed from someone else." Dai Wang said. "If you only ask the villagers to pay back one interest, I will thank you for your great kindness on their behalf."

Before the words fell, Dai Wang knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Song Wenjian three times.

This benefactor of his is really benevolent and benevolent, and he will follow the other party in the future.

"What are you doing, get up." Song Wenjian helped Dai Wang up. "But, Dai Wang, I also have one condition."

"Township Chief, what conditions?" Dai Wang's face showed concern.
