Chapter 296: Who's Brilliant and Who's Stupid

"Duan Mingfu, you can take a good look, this is an order issued by the Assassin Mansion to your Qiantang County, it is expected that in a month, more than 20,000 victims will come to your sister Qiantang County, and I hope that Duan Mingfu will prepare early, in case of an accident, it will not be able to explain to the imperial court.

Sitting in the hall of Qiantang County, Mei Zheng, who joined the army, handed Wen Yurong an official document from the Hangzhou Assassin's Mansion with a smug look on his face.

Although Duan Jian and the others had already prepared for Mei Zheng's arrival, after hearing the news, their hearts still jumped, and their anger immediately surged.

Holding back the anger in his heart, Duan Jian casually flipped through the official document that was handed to him, put the official document aside, and said to Mei Zheng with a cold face, "Mei joins the army, if the news you get is not bad, the total number of victims assigned by the imperial court to our Hangzhou this time is only 40,000, and the Assassin Mansion will send half of the victims to the jurisdiction of my Qiantang County at once, isn't it inappropriate, why don't you go back and discuss with Xiao Yuanjun whether you can divide some of the victims to other counties." ”

Looking at the coldness on Duan Jian's face, and his appearance of being angry but unable to vent, Mei Zheng's heart was much happier than a big summer and a glass of cold drink.

'Hmph, a kid who has taken shit luck, relying on a bit of background, he thinks he can do whatever he wants, how about it, regret it now, tell you, it's too late to regret it now, this time we just made it clear that we want to fix you, what can you do with us, even if this matter is known by your backstage, they can't do anything about us, and you, as long as there is a little mistake, we can expand it in every way, you just wait for the day when you get out of the egg with your tail between your legs, and you dare to humiliate Yu in public, Let you taste retribution today. ’

This time this matter originally did not need Mei Zheng to come over in person, but in order to be able to see with his own eyes Duan Jian's helpless but unable to vent after receiving the news, he specifically asked Xiao Shuyan for this opportunity to send an official document.

"Hahahaha, Duan Mingfu is really too high on Yu, a certain is a small household, how can it affect the idea of the envoy, in fact, this matter is not to blame the envoy, Duan Mingfu came to Hangzhou for a short time, what is the specific situation in Hangzhou, you also know, the whole Hangzhou is said to have seven counties, but your Qiantang County alone accounts for more than half, and even Hangzhou City is also within the jurisdiction of your Qiantang County, in this case, your Qiantang County should indeed take care of some more things for the Assassin Mansion, Xiao Yuanjun also said, This matter is indeed a bit embarrassing for you, but if it is done well, he will definitely ask the court for credit for you and the entire Qiantang County, after all, we are the courtiers, not to share the worries and solve problems for the court and His Majesty. ”

Mei Zheng is not the kind of fool who has no scheming for revenge, on the contrary, he is a person who is both scheming and capable, the purpose of his visit this time is not only to satisfy his curiosity, but also to persuade Duan Jian to take over this burden, after all, in the eyes of him and the officials of the entire Hangzhou officialdom, Duan Jian is a stunned young man who doesn't understand anything, if he really doesn't accept this matter, or report this matter to the public, even if they successfully read Duan Jian out of Hangzhou and out of Jiangnan in the end, But he completely offended Duan Jian and those people behind him, and they were not afraid of offending Duan Jian, but offending those people around Duan Jian made them quite jealous.

After all, they all have family sons and nephews, and their officials in Jiangnan can avoid the retaliation of those behind Duan Jian, and they can't take care of their brothers and nephews from being retaliated against by Duan Jian and others, and offend a group of powerful people for the sake of temporary pleasure, which is a thing that outweighs the loss for them, so if Duan Jian can take the initiative to take over the 20,000 victims, it is the main purpose of Mei Zheng's visit this time.

"Mei joins the army, I'm afraid this is not in accordance with the rules, the whole Hangzhou and my Qiantang County are indeed a little stronger than other counties, we don't deny this, if it is just an appropriate increase in the number of victims, we won't say anything, but this time it is to send half of the victims in Hangzhou to our Qiantang County, this is unfair, and even makes people feel that this is the Assassin's Mansion deliberately embarrassed our Qiantang County, and our Qiantang County will never agree to this kind of non-requirement."

These words were not what Duan Jian said, but Zhang Han, the county lieutenant sitting at the back.

Knowing that there was an official document from the Assassin Mansion, Duan Jian had already asked the county Cheng Huangbai, the chief secretary Guan Meng and the county lieutenant Zhang Han to call all the people with official positions in Qiantang County, although since Duan Jian had convinced the entire Qiantang County, he had collected most of their responsibilities into his own hands and handed them over to Zhou Xing and others to do, but when it came to formal occasions, these mascots still needed to appear, otherwise, it would be rumored that he Duan Jian was a very dictatorial official, which would be very detrimental to his future development.

As soon as Zhang Han's words were said, Mei Zheng was surprised, as for Duan Jian and the others, there was no expression, only the main bookkeeper Guan Meng, with a weird smile on his face, and then he sat there looking at the ground with blank eyes like a county prince who had been dozing off.

"Hmph, what Lieutenant Zhang said was as if our Assassin Mansion deliberately targeted you Qiantang County, and in vain the envoy Jun also specially sent a certain to appease you, it was really kind to be a donkey's liver and lungs, in this case, I won't say more to you, if you are not satisfied with anything, you can go to the Assassin Mansion to find the envoy to complain, and a certain will leave." seemed to feel that Zhang Han's words were a little harsh, and Mei Zheng, who was originally quite proud, also showed a trace of unnaturalness on his face, and then his face changed, and he said goodbye and left.

It stands to reason that Mei Zheng's official position is higher than Duan Jian's, and if he leaves, he should be sent off by the people present to the gate, but because of this news, no one has the idea of getting up to send him off at this time.

"Duan Mingfu, you shouldn't let him go at all, this is obviously that the Assassin Mansion is dissatisfied with us, and if you want to take revenge on us at this opportunity, we will definitely not be able to agree to them, otherwise, there will be one trouble after another in the future." Seeing Mei Zheng's figure disappear, Zhang Han immediately stood up and said to Duan Jian.

Hearing Zhang Han's words, Duan Jian changed his depressed expression just now, his face was full of lightness, and he even said with a smile, "Oh, don't let him go, do you think that if you leave him behind, what will you gain in the negotiation, people have already designed a trap this time, and they still dug it for you in front of you, but we still have to jump in, since we know that it is useless work, it is better to waste less words and do more practical things." ”

"Ah..... Hmmm......"

After hearing this, although Zhang Han was still a little indignant, he didn't know what to say.

"Huang Xiancheng, Guan Zhuji, I don't know what the two of you think about this matter, you are both old-timers in Qiantang County, this matter is so tricky, you should still assist someone to get through this difficulty!" Seeing that Zhang Han had nothing to say, Duan Jian said to Huang Bai and Guan Meng again.

"Hmm..... Yes.... Is Mingfu talking to the old man, I'm sorry, the old man's body is really not good, and he will be sleepy after sitting for a while, let alone doing things, whether he can live until next year is still unknown, Duan Mingfu is young and strong, resourceful, you can take care of these little things, the old man will accuse you here. Hearing Duan Jian's words, Huang Bai slowly opened his eyes, as if he had just taken a nap, and said with a confused look in his eyes, but no one here really treats him as an old fool, at least there is nothing wrong with what he said.

"Ahem, ahem..... Originally, it was an obligation to assist Duan Mingfu in handling county affairs, but it was not a coincidence, the weather may have turned cold in the past two days, and he had some wind and cold, and he was dizzy all day long, and he couldn't keep his spirits up at all, and he hoped that Duan Mingfu would forgive his sins. Like Huang Bai, Guan Meng didn't have the slightest idea of helping Duan Jian deal with this matter, and tried every means to push it out.

"Hehehe, since this is the case, there will be no delay in the cultivation of the two, you must cultivate well during this time, you are all old people in Qiantang County, I very much hope that you can give some more suggestions and do more good things for the people of Qiantang County." Seeing that the two of them were sick at the same time, Duan Jian did not force them to stay, but said with relief.

"Phew, it's really useless, just this bit of guts is still an official of the imperial court, it's really embarrassing to the imperial court, no wonder this Qiantang County was a mess before, it can be seen that it is the result of their indulgence all day long." When Huang Bai and Guan Meng went out, and Duan Jian and his party were left in the house, Duan Mu, who had long been unable to help himself, couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Okay, have you forgotten the previous lesson, if you really can't remember, I don't mind giving you a few sticks so that you can remember." Regarding Duan Mu's complaints, Duan Jian reprimanded coldly.

"It seems that Xiao Cunyan and these people really hate me to the core, and they want to take advantage of this disaster to completely kill me, if I hadn't been prepared, I'm afraid I would really not be able to eat this time and go around." After reprimanding Duan Mu, Duan Jian shook his head and said.

"Hmph, a group of clowns jumping off the beam, they only have these small means that can't be put on the table, Lang Jun is destined to swim for nine days, they also want to bond you with the little loaches in the mud, it's just delusional, and when the Shen family's brocade factory is built, they are afraid that they will regret to die." Zhou Xing snorted coldly.

"Yes, their horizons are too narrow, compared with Lang Jun, one is in the sky and the other is on the ground, in fact, it is difficult to blame them, if it is not for following Lang Jun's side and hearing Lang Jun's plan with their own ears, even if they want to break their heads, how can they think that we will work together with the Shen family to set up a factory, in this way, the more those disaster victims, the bigger our brocade workshop will be in the future, and the more profits will be generated, they are not sending us trouble, but sending us the God of Wealth, think about it carefully, We should still be grateful to them. Wen Yurong continued Zhou Xing's words.

"Hahahaha......." Sure enough, after listening to Wen Yurong's obviously somewhat ridiculous words, Duan Jian and the others couldn't help laughing.

..................................

Late at night Ruyi Fang once again entered the lively environment, but, if you observe carefully, you will find that although today's Ruyi Fang is as lively as ever, but there are a lot of less obscene words and rain, flirting and scolding, a little more solemn.

The reason why this is so is not that Ruyifang has changed its evil ways and is ready to stop doing the skin and meat business, but that the characters who came here today are different, and if the characters who came here today are taken out alone, they may be nothing in the entire Tang Dynasty, but in this place in the south of the Yangtze River, they are all thunderous big people.

In addition to Su Liren, a big silk merchant who is known as 'Su Bancheng' in Hangzhou City, there are also the young master and shop housekeeper of the first Xiao family in Jiangnan, although some other merchants look inferior to Su Liren and the Xiao family on the surface, from their demeanor, they are also famous figures.

And the reason why these people gathered in this Ruyi Fang tonight was just to participate in a banquet, and the person who sent out the invitation was none other than the emperor of Qiantang County, Duan Jian Duan Langjun.

"Su Langjun, do you know what the stupid and bold Duan Ming Mansion summoned us to do, it's not that the disaster victims are about to come, his granary is still empty, and he wants us people to fill in one or two for him." A middle-aged man dressed in a gorgeous satin robe who looked to be around thirty years old walked up to Su Liren and asked in a low voice.

For ordinary people, it may be difficult to know some news of the upper class, but for those who are in it, everything that happens, they can learn about it through their own channels at the first time, and the matter of the Assassin's Mansion allocating 20,000 victims to Qiantang County has been placed on many people's cases at the moment when Mei Zheng has not yet walked out of the Assassin's Mansion.

Hearing the words of this middle-aged man, Su Liren said with a faint smile on his face, "Brother Yang said that he laughed, who can say the things on the official face, besides, we are all understanding people, why should Brother Yang come to my words, you can't see this kind of scene, there must be something big, if it's just a small thing, why should Duan Mingfu even invite big businessmen in Suzhou and Yangzhou, there is a hunch, maybe we can catch a big fish tonight, we or, our family, It is very likely that there will be a different change from now on. ”

As soon as Su Liren's words were spoken, the frivolous look on the face of the person surnamed Yang had long disappeared, and was replaced by a solemn expression, and he said in a low voice, "What Brother Su said is good, a certain person also has this feeling, although the Ming Mansion was made stunned by others, but I heard that he was in Chang'an City, but he was very beautiful, not only to bear the suppression of the major families, but also to the deep trust of the emperor and the queen of heaven. I'm still looking forward to tonight's banquet. ”
