Chapter 31: The Miserable Wang Dalang

"Ning'an, this is the rent and dividends of the teahouse this month. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Bai Shi sent a small bag to Wang Ning'an.

My grandfather left two properties to my mother, one is a restaurant, which has been brought back to life in Wang Ningan's hands. As for the other one, it is the teahouse.

As early as more than a month ago, I took the time to see, the situation of the teahouse and the restaurant is different, the business there is very prosperous, the shopkeeper is a capable person, he owns fifty percent of the shares of the teahouse, responsible for the daily operation.

Every month, he pays the Wang family rent and half of the dividends.

Wang Ningan was busy writing things and formulating countermeasures, Wang Liangjing ran back and forth in the city and village, and had to take time to practice martial arts, and the Bai family was responsible for small things such as collecting money.

There are a total of 3 800 Wen, of which the rent is consistent, and the rest is dividends.

Holding the money in his hand, Wang Ningan frowned.

Bai's face was not good-looking, she picked up a coin that was one size larger than the usual copper coin, and sighed: "The teahouse told my mother that this coin can be used as ten yuan, but my mother doesn't look right." Bai frowned, sullen.

"This is indeed a copper coin of ten, but unfortunately only the yamen admits it!" Wang Ningan recognized it at a glance that the money in Bai's hand was "Daquan Dangten".

In the era of metal currency, there are always people who will have the idea of making money, such as the ancient idol Zhuge Liang, after taking Bashu, he issued the most inferior copper coin in history - Taiping 100 coins, with a slightly larger copper coin, to top a hundred Wen, to purchase private materials, and the people to grab benefits. The common people obviously did not want to be taken to the pit, and the result was that the prices of Shu soared, the people were struggling to make a living, and the people of the country of abundance were hungry.

The monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty are still a little better than the Shu Kingdom, but no one can resist the temptation of currency magic, the Western Xia War broke out, the imperial court was short of finances, and prices soared, the Great Song Dynasty court had to choose to issue insufficient currency, first "when ten iron coins", and then not long ago, and issued "Daquan when ten" copper coins, that is, Bai Shi took back.

"It's not bad, it's copper money, not iron money!" Wang Ningan laughed on his lips, but he was already extremely angry in his heart, and he actually used the worthless copper coins to fool the old lady, obviously there was a problem in the teahouse.

"How can they do that?" After Bai Shi understood, his lips turned white with anger, and he almost cried, "No, I'll go find them!" ”

Bai Shi was huffing and wanted to go to the people in the teahouse to settle accounts.

"Wait." Wang Ningan grabbed the old lady, "Mother, don't worry, listen to me." ”

Wang Ning calmed down and said: "The teahouse is very prosperous, and the monthly dividends will definitely not be even three times, and they dare to fool us with ten dollars, and their conscience has been eaten by dogs!" ”

"It's not, don't say anything else, your grandfather chose the best location, as long as the rent is consistent for a month, it's like giving it away for nothing, and it's not enough to take advantage of it!" Bai's voice became higher and higher, "Ning An, we don't bully people, but we can't let others bully anymore, I must settle accounts with them!" ”

"Is it enough to settle accounts?" Wang Ningan chuckled: "Mother, don't you want them to spit out all the money they eat?" ”

"Think, of course you think, do you have attention?"

Wang Ningan shook his head, "I will find a way to investigate, and when I deal with the matter here, I will go to them to settle the account." ”

After appeasing the old lady, Wang Ningan grabbed more than 300 pieces of "Daquan Dangten", this thing is really enough to trick people, as a penny to spend, he is unwilling, as ten pennies, and the people do not admit it, Wang Ningan thought for a long time, and suddenly his eyes lit up. Called Xiao Maozi over and asked him to go to the market to exchange for 600 pieces back, and made up a total of 1,000 pieces and 10 yuan of money, and immediately sent them to Zhizhou Yamen, in the name of Haifeng Restaurant, donated to help Bao people develop education.

……

"A small restaurant, or a new opening, can donate ten yuan in one go, all the princes here, aren't you ashamed?" Gongsun Ce faced a group of businessmen and scolded loudly, "Is the official school for the sake of Bao Daren?" It's for you guys, for all the people of Cangzhou, can't you even understand this truth? ”

No matter how Gongsun Ce shouted, the businessmen and gentry present hung their heads incomparably and did not say a word.

"Okay, let's just consume it like this, I'll see if you can't stand it, or if I can't stand it!"

Gongsun Ce beckoned, someone brought a bowl of millet porridge, he took the pickle melon, sucked and drank, and the others couldn't help but swallow their saliva, but no one was willing to come forward and donate money to help Bao Zheng.

They also have calculations in their hearts, running a school is not a small amount, and it takes time to build a school, maybe the school is not finished, and Bao Heizi will be transferred away, if the next Zhizhou is not enthusiastic about running a school, it will not be a waste of effort.

And all the businessmen in Cangzhou looked at the Cui family's face incomparably, they knew that the Cui family and Master Bao were not in harmony, how dare they jump out and wade into troubled waters!

The two sides were at a stalemate, waiting until the afternoon, one by one, their stomachs growled, and still no one wanted to be the first bird.

Gongsun Ce gritted his teeth and put on a posture of fighting a protracted battle.

At this moment, suddenly there was a hearty laugh outside.

"Hahaha, running a school is a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and we can't lag behind in Cangzhou! I Cui Yu is willing to donate 2,000 yuan. ”

As he spoke, a fat white man walked in from outside. He arched his hand at Gongsun Ce and said with a smile: "The villain Cui Yu has seen Mr. Gongsun." ”

"It turned out to be Mr. Cui, could it be that he came to donate?"

"That's right, our Cui family has lived in Cangzhou for generations, it's a pity that for so many years, there hasn't been a Jinshi, it's a shame! Mr. Bao is willing to learn, and the villain should make a modest contribution. I am going to donate 2,000 yuan and another 50,000 bricks. Mr. Gongsun, have you chosen the position of the official school? ”

Gongsun Ce shook his head, "There is no spacious enough place in Cangzhou City, and there is no need to expropriate land, isn't this persuading the big guys to donate generously!" ”

Cui Yu said generously: "The villain has a piece of land next to the City God Temple, if Lord Bao does not dislike it, I am willing to give it with both hands and give it to Lord Bao for running a school." ”

……

With Cui Yu taking the lead, others dare not follow, you will give 100 guan, I will make 200 guan, and in the evening, when Gongsun Ce reported to Bao Heizi, it was almost 5,000 guan, plus 50,000 bricks and tiles, the land donated by Cui Yu was enough to build a academy.

In the face of so much money, Bao Heizi was not excited at all, but was furious!

The so-called revitalization of education is actually Wang Ningan's strategy.

The reason why Bao Zheng and the Cui family have conflicts is because Bao Zheng's innovative measures have touched the interests of the Cui family. And because of Wang Liangxun's case, he has lost the opportunity to take the lead, and he fights rashly, and the chances of winning are slim.

Wang Ningan suggested that Bao Zheng take a step back and do something that was not controversial. For example, to promote education, such as redressing unjust prisons, such as respecting the elderly and helping the young...... These are all good ways for ordinary local officials to brush up their prestige, and when their prestige is enough, they can rise step by step, and as for what happens next to the locality, it will be left to the next official.

Although Cui Yu is not afraid of Bao Zheng, he has to use all means to kill Bao Heizi, what if there is a more difficult official to deal with?

The best thing is that he and Bao Zheng beat drums and sell sugar, each doing their own thing, and no one will cross the line.

Therefore, after confirming that Bao Zheng put his interest in Xingxue.

Cui Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and finally did what a magistrate should do!

As long as you don't make trouble for him, what if you give some money, you can earn it back sooner or later, money, bricks, land, give whatever you want!

"This Cui Yu is really a big deal!" Bao Zheng slammed the table hard, and it made a bang.

Gongsun Ce was also angry, "My lord, he gave so much money, it shows that the huge profits of smuggling are more than ten times or a hundred times, Cui Yuzhi is hateful, he should be cut by a thousand knives!" ”

After a lesson, Bao Zheng calmed down many times.

"Wang Ningan is right, the old man, as a parent official, should not be rash. There is not enough evidence, and the Cui family cannot be taken. ”

"My lord, when will that be?"

Bao Zheng was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "No matter when, you have to wait, wait for the right opportunity, if you don't get rid of the Cui family, the old man will never leave Cangzhou!" ”

……

In order to plan for Bao Zheng and deal with the Cui family, Wang Ningan delayed for a month, and Han Toad's side was already on fire, except for fried leftovers every day, he was stuck in the "serial plan" section, and a good Jin Ge Iron Horse was going to become a bitter drama. If it drags on any longer, the audience will scold her mother.

Wang Ningan had no choice, so he had to take out a little effort, and quickly wrote a few paragraphs of "Yuanmen Shooting Halberd" and "Cooking Wine on Heroes", and hurriedly gave it to Han Toad, and was walking back, when the donkey cart passed through an alley, and suddenly a embarrassed young man ran from the opposite side, his clothes were all rags, some places were exposed flesh, and some places were stained with blood.

He ran desperately, and five or six thugs behind him desperately chased after him.

"Stop, don't run!"

The young man who was being chased fell beside Wang Ning'an's car in a hurry, he raised his head and shouted in despair, "Help, help!" ”

Wang Ningan is not an eventful person, he raised the whip and wanted to run away, but when he squinted his eyes, he was suddenly stupid, isn't this young man his cousin, Wang Dalang Wang Ninghong, who caused him to suffer family law?

How did he get mixed up like this!

Wang Ning'an was full of doubts, and the thugs on the opposite side had already rushed up.

"Little cub surnamed Wang, you can't run!"
