Chapter 103: The Iron Rooster Plucks

Shen An waved his hand and glanced at Liu Bald suspiciously, and estimated that these were all taught by Liu Bald. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Since you have become the official of Sanhe County, then this official hopes that you can do your best to contribute to Sanhe County, and don't take the imperial court's money and don't do practical things......" Shen An is now a majestic lecture, and there have been such lectures before, but the objects are different, and Shen An has long been familiar with such clichΓ© teachings, and he is also at his fingertips at this moment.

After a reprimand, Pei Wenyuan dismissed the officials with interest and let them return to their respective posts.

"Hehe, Lord Shen reprimanded this well." Liu Bald shook a feather fan Shi Ran and walked over, and then he glanced at Pei Wenyuan, who was respectful and respectful, and leaned into Shen An's ear and asked in a low voice, "Didn't the second master go to check the situation of the academy?" Came back so soon? ”

Shen An couldn't cry or laugh, this Liu bald man really had a strange temperament, and immediately responded in a low voice: "The military advisor doesn't know, the damage on the side of the academy is extremely serious, and I estimate that the method of asking for silver taels will not take a short time, so I plan to raise a little silver taels among the rich merchants in the county." ”

Liu Bald looked overjoyed: "Is this the second master going to continue to blackmail some silver taels like Wang Jin?" Liu Bald's body trembled, and his expression looked a little excited.

"The military advisor thinks too much, it's just a simple matter of raising silver taels, and besides, does the military advisor think that I am such an unscrupulous person?" Shen An said angrily.

Liu Bald couldn't help but be disappointed when he heard this, and he distanced himself from Shen An unhurriedly.

"Since Lord Shen has something to do, then Lord Shen will be busy first, and the county will also arrange the things in the county government in detail, alas, there are also a lot of things waiting for the army division over there...... "Liu Bald seemed to be a little tired.

Shen An shook his head slightly: "Liu Xiancheng has worked hard, things in Sanhe County have been a little busy recently, Sanhe County still needs Liu Xiancheng you to worry about, to build Sanhe County into a beautiful and prosperous county, Liu Xiancheng must spend more thanks." ”

Pei Wenyuan showed admiration to Liu Bald on the side, Liu Bald glanced at it inadvertently, and suddenly felt refreshed, and said a few words politely before shaking and leaving.

Shen An called Pei Wenyuan over.

"Master Pei, you come with me to the homes of these rich merchants, let's go and give these rich businessmen a dose of reassurance, so that these rich businessmen can bleed."

Pei Wenyuan should be at the moment, although he is indeed a little tired recently, but since this is Shen An's order, Pei Wenyuan can't shirk it.

followed Shen An to a wealthy merchant in Sanhe County, and the rich businessman saw that Shen An, the county magistrate, had come to visit in person, so he was enthusiastic and ordered his subordinates to serve tea and water, and he was meticulous.

even praised Shen An, especially for Shen An's performance in the chaotic forest, which was blown up by the rich businessman. When talking about Shen An's poems, this rich businessman also said that it was good and wonderful. Shen An thought for a while that this rich businessman was also a person who knew a little knowledge, so he felt that this kind of mobilization could be easier.

However, when Shen An proposed to donate silver taels to repair the academy, the rich businessman couldn't help but make a bitter face, and couldn't stop sighing that the current situation was turbulent, the Japanese were running chaotically, the business was sluggish, and he couldn't make ends meet......

In fact, Shen An had already known from the information found by Li Shidao that this rich businessman was very rich, and this bitter remark was also a rhetoric.

Pei Wenyuan was anxious from the sidelines, this rich businessman obviously didn't eat oil and salt, and he didn't eat soft and hard. However, Pei Wenyuan had already expected such a situation on the way here, these rich businessmen in Sanhe County, that is not an iron rooster that is not plucked?

The Japanese did not have much impact on Sanhe County, which also led to the importance of these wealthy merchants to their own families.

Pei Wenyuan estimated that Shen An was afraid that he was going to return today, and just when Pei Wenyuan was in a hurry, things seemed to have taken a little turn for the better.

"Hehe, this official intends to set up a merit monument for all the good people who donated silver taels this time, oh, this official will prepare an excerpt for this matter later, I believe that it is still possible to build a merit monument in the name of the imperial court." Shen An took a sip of tea lightly and said unhurriedly.

The rich businessman originally looked unimpressed, and the dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, but suddenly his expression moved, the merit monument?

The status of businessmen is very low, so although many businessmen have a lot of money, this status is not even comparable to that of farmers, which undoubtedly leaves a little regret in their successful life.

But the merit monument that Shen An said is a good thing that can invisibly elevate their status, especially that this merit monument has a high gold content, Lord Shen An, but it is going to be reported to the imperial court.

What does it mean to report to the imperial court, and the imperial court allows the establishment of merit monuments? To put it bluntly, this is something that can make them produce some compelling qualities, just imagine, in a commemorative place in the academy, a stone tablet has his name written on it, which can be seen and remembered by many scholars every day, which is ...... This is simply enough to glorify the ancestors.

Thinking like this, the rich merchant was already a little excited, and fell into an endless reverie.

"Ahem, Your Excellency, are you still interested?" Just when the rich merchant was still immersed in fantasy, Shen An coughed lightly and pulled him back from his fantasy.

"Hehe," the rich merchant rubbed his hands and smiled dryly, "There is this matter, Lord Shen didn't say it earlier, such a donation to repair the academy can be described as immeasurable, such a thing, then I also plan to contribute a little bit of my own strength, although the financial resources under the city are weak, and the business is not sluggish, but I can still get some silver taels for repairing the academy." ”

"Oh?" Shen An squinted at him, it's not that he didn't tell the matter of this merit monument in advance, firstly, such a novel idea was said at the beginning, it would definitely not achieve the desired effect, and secondly, he could also find out which wealthy businessmen in Sanhe County belonged to that kind of atmosphere, even if there were other cooperation in the future, they would be given priority.

"So, are you planning to donate the silver taels for the renovation of the academy?"

"Hehe, what did Lord Shen say? This is a contribution to our Sanhe County, that is my honor, this money, must be donated! The rich businessman's tone was extremely firm, and it wasn't a lot of money anyway.

"That's good." Shen An has silently drawn a cross for this person in his heart, this person is not atmospheric.

After the donation was settled, Shen An had no need to stay, and explained a few words about the donation ceremony of the academy, and Shen An got up to say goodbye.

"Lord Shen, will you leave after eating?" The rich merchant asked with a smile.

Shen An waved his hand and left without looking back.

Speaking of which, Shen An has always been on foot, dignified county government, and he doesn't even have a carriage and sedan chair, but he is a little down-and-out, and he has to think about it, and he can get some oil and water from those rich businessmen, so as to make a sedan chair for the top of the journey......
