[In the new book period, I urgently need rewards from my brothers and sisters to let Lao Niu be on the list!! Thank you. Datang Readers: 119352870 welcome to join! 】
That's tempting!
Seeing Wu Maocai like this, Guo Ye couldn't help but sigh, if this is the case, the pursuit of interests has always been the main theme and common topic of Vanity Fair.
At this time, Wu Maocai was like a great white shark in the sea, as soon as he smelled blood, he quickly rounded up and stepped forward, biting Guo Ye's hook without hanging the string.
"Virtuous son-in-law, come, come on, you say it more carefully, what kind of wealth is it?"
Wu Maocai also approached Guo Ye with a fleshy old face, and suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly shouted outside the hall: "Come on, serve tea to my uncle, serve good tea, this has no eyesight, I don't know if it's not easy for my uncle to come back?" ”
Saliva splashed between the shouts, spraying Guo Ye's face with foaming stars.
, Guo Ye couldn't help wiping his face with his sleeves, and said in his heart, father-in-law, can't you pay attention to your image?
Wu Maocai also ignored Guo Ye's response, and said with a smile: "Virtuous son-in-law, hurry up and talk about it, don't talk about it, do you want to kill your father-in-law and me?" ”
At this time, Wu Maocai and Wu Maocai in Guo Ye's original impression are like two people, and there is a world of difference.
However, Guo Ye is even happier that Wu Maocai is so philistine and obscene, otherwise how can his plan be implemented, otherwise how can he fulfill the Haikou boasted by Pang Feihu and the brothers in the soap class house today?
So he slowly told his colleague Zhang Xiaoqi about the loss of the tax grain that he had hoarded in the grain drying field in Dongliu Township.
Moreover, he understood the suspicions in the hearts of himself and the team leader Pang Feihu and others.
Subsequently, Guo Ye said to Wu Maocai: "Father-in-law, the tax grain of a hundred stones is gone, we just use our butts to think about things, and we know that this matter must be inseparable from the father and son of the Lizheng Liu family." Think about it, if the yamen finds out that this matter is the Liu family's doing, what good fruits will his Liu Lao Lai's family have to eat? ”
Wu Maocai frowned while smashing his mouth and listening, and marveled in his heart that Liu Laolai was a bastard dog, but he didn't seem to see where his wealth was?
So he sat up straight with his face and slowly widened the distance between himself and Guo Ye.
asked in a flat tone: "Virtuous son-in-law, this matter doesn't seem to have anything to do with the old man." Judging from what you just said, the old man can't see where the great wealth you said is? ”
No way!
The old fox is really not so easy to fool, Ya is a master who does not see rabbits and does not scatter eagles.
While Guo Ye belittled Wu Maocai, he was also secretly annoyed that he didn't talk to the point, if he continued to grind like this, he would not polish the patience of Wu Maocai, a profit-seeking old fox.
So he went straight to the topic and said: "Father-in-law, there are still two days left before the time limit for grain delivery set by the yamen. But in just two days, it was impossible to do anything to the Liu family without evidence, and it was impossible to recover the lost tax grain. If the time limit for the delivery of grain is delayed, it will be difficult for the entire soap class to escape punishment, and even the county magistrate may be unable to escape the blame and be scolded by the county magistrate. So ......"
"So you hit the head of our Wu family, and want the Wu family to pay the grain of one hundred stones for your soap class first, so that you can pay for the soap class, right?" Wu Maocai took a bite of the conversation coldly.
Hiss......
Guo Ye was dumbfounded at the moment when he was answered by Wu Maocai's words, and the look of philistine and impatience on the face of the old fox was an illusion, but in fact, his heart was as bright as a mirror?
At this time, Wu Maocai had long since lost the smile just now, and was replaced by a dead face.
Wu Maocai pinched the handful of beard on his chin and snorted sadly: "Guo Ye, Guo Ye, the old man doesn't dislike your tenant background and recruited you into the Wu family, and spent money to take care of the county lieutenant for you, and found you such a good errand in the Yamen, is this how you serve the Wu family, thank me for my father-in-law?" You're turning your elbow outward, and you're turning it hard, aren't you? That's a hundred stone of silver? Are you bastard trying to empty my Wu family's granary? ”
In the end, Wu Maocai was already so angry that he jumped to his feet and roared hoarsely.
He knew that this kid was not a fool of himself from before he sent Guo Ye to leave the Wu family to work in the county seat, but he still didn't expect this white-eyed wolf to reach this level.
A hundred stone of grain is 10,000 catties of e catty, a catty of grain is estimated at this year's market price, how to sell it for 20 yuan, 10,000 catties of grain is almost 500 taels of snowflake silver, this is the Wu family's harvest in a year.
Guo Ye actually beat his Wu family's income for a year, doesn't this mean that he Wu Maocai's old life?
No, no, not to kill.
Wu Maocai can't wait to slap Guo Ye to death now.
Seeing that Wu Maocai was on the verge of going berserk, Guo Ye also looked anxious, and hurriedly got up to support him, then stroked his back and said with relief: "Father-in-law, don't worry, you can listen to me first." ”
Wu Maocai snorted, shook off Guo Ye's support, and then sat straight on the big chair in his hall and gasped.
He opened his voice and scolded, "Let's talk about it, today you just said that you want to beat the Wu family to save food." Besides, the Wu family has no surplus food. ”
When Guo Ye heard this, he despised his father-in-law, a miser, and there was no surplus grain in the landlord's family.
Your sister, several large granaries of the Wu family are full, you old ghost, just wait for the grain worms to feed the mice.
Anyway, today Guo Ye made up his mind to ask the Wu family to pay for the grain deposit first, and he worked with Wu Mao, and he was endless.
Then he continued to tempt: "Father-in-law, why don't you just look at the food in front of your nose when you see the tip of your nose?" ”
Wu Maocai glanced at Guo Ye with a good face, and snorted: "In the end, it's not your Guo family's food, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, what can the Wu family rely on if they have this family business today?" It is relied on for generations of thrifty family management and successful vigils. You're going to die today, Guo Ye. ”
Damn, why is it just like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard?
Guo Ye is really about to collapse, Wu Maocai is now iron-hearted, whoever dares to touch the cheese in front of him, he will fight with whomever he wants.
If you want to change to the era of the Great Revolution, you have to criticize and fight to death.
Guo Ye had no choice but to continue to throw the temptation and said: "Father-in-law, you don't want to think about it, how can this grain make you lose it?" As long as you donate generously and pay the taxes and grains for the soap class first, it will solve the urgent need of the soap class, and at the same time, it will also save face for the county lieutenant. How rare is such an opportunity? When the time comes, the Lizheng Liu family will be overthrown, and the county lieutenant will be happy, and directly let you take over the position of Liu Laolai's old coffin? Father-in-law, think about it, the Liu family and the Wu family have been fighting for decades, such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity should not be missed! ”
Ga......
Wu Maocai suddenly stopped his breath when he heard such a crucial sentence from Guo Ye, staring at Guo Ye for a long time in a daze as if he had woken up a person in a dream.
Seeing this, Guo Ye said in his heart, is there a door?
So he continued to talk eloquently, gave Wu Maocai another reassurance, and said: "Besides, as long as the Liu family is brought down and the stolen tax grain is recovered, can you still let your father-in-law give away that batch of grain for nothing?" It's just that the left hand goes out and the right hand goes in, think about it, you can't suffer a loss, and in the end you can gain fame and fortune, why not? ”
This sentence finally hit Wu Maocai's heart.
I saw Wu Maocai's hand, grinning again, frowning and snorting, his face changed and uncertain.
After weighing the pros and cons, Wu Maocai sat down and looked at Guo Ye and asked, "If the Liu family is brought down and the tax grain is recovered, the 10,000 catties of grain can be returned to me, and the Wu family will not be allowed to pay in vain?" ”
Guo Ye nodded noncommittally and said yes, which he can guarantee to do.
Wu Maocai saw Guo Ye's statement, and asked again: "You said that the county lieutenant will let me replace Liu Laolai and serve as the Lizheng of Dongliu Township?" ”
Belch......
Guo Ye hesitated for a while, this, this really hasn't been reported, and it doesn't matter if he says it.
But thinking so in my heart, I didn't dare to say this in my mouth, and finally moved Wu Maocai, but I couldn't give up my efforts because of one or two hesitant words.
So he said categorically: "Isn't this nature just a righteous position?" It's nothing at all in the eyes of Lord Weigu. ”
Seeing that Guo Ye answered so happily, Wu Maocai couldn't help but ask: "You are just an ordinary yamen soap subordinate, how can you count what you say?" ”
No way!!
Guo Ye was questioned by Wu Maocai, and he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, didn't he look down on people?
So he stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the guest room and courtyard, and said: "Father-in-law, this time is different from the past, your son-in-law and I are also the second-in-command in the soap class, and I have won the trust of the team leader Pang Feihu." When I came to Dongliu Township today, I came with your son-in-law and me, do you know what Brother Soban calls me? ”
Wu Maocai looked at the momentum of Guo Ye's big hand, and suddenly felt that Guo Ye was urinating in the wind, very domineering, and then asked, "What do you call you?" ”
Guo Ye sneered proudly: "I am Guo Ye, a member of the soap class, and I am nicknamed 'Little Second Brother'." Only succumbed to Pang Bantou. ”
Wu Maocai was skeptical, but Guo Ye's momentum was indeed different from the past, so he asked weakly, "Really?" ”
The corners of Guo Ye's mouth raised, patted the iron ruler on his waist, and said loudly: "Of course, this can't be fake." The soap officials I brought with me are drinking wine and eating meat in the courtyard, and if you don't believe me, you can ask them. ”
Wu Maocai slowly lowered his head after hearing this, thinking about Guo Ye's words, he said that this is the part, it seems that this kid is really mixed up like a fish in water in the soap class, and he is very popular.
Then he muttered in a voice that was so light that he could only hear it: "Damn, I can't bear the child to trap the wolf." For the sake of the Wu family, Lao Tzu fought hard!! ”
So the old face was raised, replaced by a determined face, and said to Guo Ye: "Zhong, the old man will believe you once, do it!" ”
Seeing this, Guo Ye was overjoyed in his heart, but his face showed a light and breezy appearance, and he slowly turned around and walked towards the outside of the lobby.
As he walked, he said loudly without looking back: "Father-in-law, you will definitely not regret your decision today." ”
After that, he strode out of the lobby, leaving only Wu Maocai, who was looking forward to the position of Li Zheng and the bright future of the Wu family.
Guo Ye pressed his excited emotions, walked out of the lobby slowly and steadily, and walked a few hundred steps, and his tense heart was relieved.
It's so handsome, he can get the old father-in-law who picks the door with just three inches of incorruptible tongue, Lao Tzu definitely has the style of the world's first debater!
The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and when Guo Ye was thinking about dancing to celebrate, he was abrupt -
A delicate voice with a cold voice suddenly came: "What a clever mouth that can speak, aren't you afraid that I will stop my father and disturb your wishful thinking?" ”
