The two brothers pushed open the door: "The child greets his father." ”

Wang Anshi was happy when he saw the two children coming back: "Okay, I'll introduce you to you, this is the county order of our county; These two are dogs. ”

The county order was still holding the shelf, sitting there without moving, waiting for the two sons to see the ceremony, but when he raised his eyes to look at these two people, he sighed in his heart, Yuan Ze said that there was a student, although the age next to him was also twenty years old, but his face was cold, and he stood there and did not bow his eyes to look at himself, and said: "Who asked you to sit here, give me up." ”

The county commander didn't hesitate, and stood up suddenly: "The two sons are good." ”

Wang Anshi just felt that the king was also stunned, and he couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw the county order jumping up from the chair, but after all, he was much calmer, and motioned for the three of them to sit down.

"Zhu County Order, this is my second son Wang next to the small word, what you just said, you just tell him yourself." Wang Anshi still knows his son very well, seeing that the formation coming in next to the king is not right, he must have heard the words of Zhu County's order just now, and he thinks that if you have the courage, you can tell my son yourself, and there must be an answer next to the king.

Don't look at Zhu County's words just now, now in front of the king, he is really a little weak-hearted,

"Yes, yes, that's the case, second son, this, that~~" Zhu Xianling didn't expect that Wang was so domineering, if he had a good stomach, what kind of service is the Great Song Dynasty, and everyone is responsible for serving, but just now he was called out by Wang Bei, and he couldn't say it all of a sudden, so he had to look at Wang Anshi with a pleading gaze,

"Don't look at my father, you tell me something." The king sat down opposite the county order, waved his hand up and down, and motioned for the county order to sit down and speak.

Originally, this gesture meant to appease, after all, in front of his father, he couldn't be too ostentatious, how did he know that the county order was misunderstood, thinking that the king was calling him over, so he nervously walked to the king's side, and said: "I'm here to trouble the second son, a bit of an errand in the county, and I want the second son to help handle it." ”

"Oh, what's the matter, tell me about it, I'll listen" Although Wang Bi had already guessed what the county magistrate wanted to do with him, it was nothing to make him happy.

"What about this, our service law stipulates that you can serve hard labor when you reach the age, and I think that as the second son, of course you can't do those heavy jobs."

Wang Bei nodded: "The county master is really thoughtful, then you can tell me what I can do." ”

Zhu Xianling looked at the king and nodded, his heart was not so nervous just now, and then he said with a smile: "What about service, there is also service, these are to do some errands, do some things in the government, I heard that the second son has also done things in the capital, these are still more suitable for the second son." ”

Wang Bi nodded again: "The county master is really considerate, you can tell me what this errand officer does." ”

Yuan Ze looked at the pretentious posture next to the king, remembered what he saw on the road just now, and thought to himself that this brother might not be able to figure out this county order, so he smiled secretly, looked up and saw that Wang Anshi was frowning, so he quietly walked to his father's side, and told Wang Anshi what happened outside Chen Yuanwai on the road in a low voice, Wang Anshi stroked his beard and nodded while listening,

Zhu Xian Ling didn't pay attention to Yuan Ze and Wang Anshi, at this time he saw that Wang Bei's face was much more relaxed, and he also muttered in his heart, he was also the county magistrate of a county, Wang Bei was just a child who resigned, presumably he roared so much just now because he didn't know himself, and now he should know his intentions, so he straightened his waist and stood in front of Wang: "This errand can't be better, just collect miscellaneous taxes in the county, such as salt, wine tax, tea profit, commercial tax, etc., our county has always been free of people, presumably this thing is the best thing to do." ”

Although Zhu Xianling said this with a clear conscience, but his face did not change, if Wang Bian didn't see Chen Yuanwai's experience on the street, it would be fine, and now he knows so much, dare to feel this county order After tossing a Chen Yuanwai, he tossed himself again.

Yuan Ze frowned when he listened to it, and Wang Anshi whispered: "It's okay, your brother has been entrusted by the prime minister, and it is also an errand, is it difficult for this Zhu County to dare to make it difficult for the prime minister." Yuan Ze nodded, and the father and son waited for Wang to reject Zhu County's order.

How do you know that Wang next to him smiled, raised his head and looked at Zhu County's order: "Such an easy errand, the county order is really lovely, I will take it." ”

The county magistrate was so happy when he heard it, he finally found a scapegoat, this kid looked very shrewd, but in fact, it was nothing more than that, he grinned happily: "That's good, that's good, then I'll quit." ”

"Wait." Wang said unhurriedly: "I don't have a problem with this matter, but the county order has to tell me how much this tax will be collected, what taxes will be collected, and let me see past examples, otherwise I will not have an implementation standard for doing this." ”

It's a small example, it's easy for you to take this matter, and if you can't collect it, I'll ask you, I think this Wang Anshi's family is also a big family, and it will definitely have to fill the gap like that Chen Yuanwai for the sake of face.

Zhu Xianling thought so in his heart, but his face was silent: "Okay, then ask the second son to come to the county office tomorrow, and someone will guide you on how to do it." ”

Wang smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you will wait for me at the county office tomorrow." ”

Zhu Xianling turned to Wang Anshi and said: "The prince is really a good godson, these two sons are so sensible, I will leave now." ”

Wang Anshi said "send off", and a family member sent Zhu County Order out of the house, out of Wang Anshi's house, Zhu County Ling was happy, and went to the restaurant to find his Liu girl to drink flower wine.

Zhu Xian Ling came to the restaurant happily, but saw a few big men watching the restaurant at the door, some had blue noses and swollen faces, and some were depressed, Zhang San ran down from the steps: "County master, you are here, our shopkeeper is waiting for you." ”

"You are."

"Alas, don't ask, a stunned boy made trouble today, come on, please come inside." Zhang San said, bowed his head and invited Zhu Xian Ling upstairs,

In front of the shopkeeper and the county order, Zhang San said again about today's Chen Yuanwai urging accounts and beating people next to the king, naturally how arrogant Chen Yuanwai was, saying that he was not afraid of having a county order to support the shopkeeper, and called someone to beat his brothers, and Chen Yuanwai also threatened to settle accounts with the county order.

Where did Zhu Xianling hear such words, his beard, which was already angry, was about to stand up, and he slapped the table: "Chen Cripple is so bold, you go and bring him to me." ”

A few big men got the instructions of the county order, thinking that they could vent their anger now, picked up the wooden stick and went to Chen Yuanwai's house, and when they came to Chen Yuanwai's house, they saw that the door of the house was closed, and a horizontal lock locked the door, and it seemed that Chen Yuanwai was not at home.

"Hey, where's this Chen cripple?" Zhang San asked the neighbors who were alarmed by them,

The neighbors all knew a few gangsters in this county, seeing their blue noses and swollen faces, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare, they just wanted to close the door and hide from these people, and Zhang San asked and hurriedly said: "I don't know, I just saw that Chen Yuanwai took a cloth bag and went out." ”

"This kid won't just run away, let's go, go to the city gate and ask."

Several big men went separately to the city gates of the four cities in the southeast, northwest and northwest, and the soldiers guarding the city gate naturally recognized them, and when they heard that they were looking for Chen Yuanwai, they shook their heads after thinking about it carefully, and no one saw Chen Yuan go out of the city.

Zhang San rushed away happily, and came back a little disappointed, so he left a person to wait at the door of Chen Yuanwai's house, as long as he didn't leave the city, it would be easy to do, sooner or later he had to go home,

Coincidentally, Zhu Xian ordered to go out of Wang Anshi's mansion to the restaurant, and Chen Yuanwai went to Yanbuling.

Chen Yuanwai returned home and thought about it, he received money for no reason and could not be repaid, looking at the justice of this young man's face, thinking of the things left by his father, this thing has been put away as a treasure for so many years, but it is also a waste in his own hands, so it is better to give it to this young man, so he took out a box, opened the box and contained a few books, the books were not old and were copied by his biological father back then, and he studied them repeatedly, although he understood some of the subtleties in it, he also tried to do some practice according to what the book said, But if what is said in this book is made, the movement is too great,

Chen Yuanwai thinks about his current situation, it is useless to keep this book, the son who helped him just now, the person next to him also said that his surname is Wang, living on Yanbuling, and now he lives in Yanbuling, there is a big family surnamed Wang, the head of the household is called Wang Anshi, the word Jiefu, although he has not met, but he has also heard that he has been an official, and he is also outstanding in knowledge, it seems that this young man is the son of this Wang Jiefu, although he can't afford to climb that Wang Jiefu, but thank Wang next to him is always due,

Fortunately, he had this idea and went to Yanbuling with his things, otherwise if Zhang San and the others were blocked, he would have to be beaten first no matter what.

Not to mention how the county order scolded Zhang San in the restaurant, I don't know who beat him; doesn't say how Chen Yuanwai was entangled with the handwritten copies left by his father; After Zhu Xianling left Wang Anshi's mansion, the father and son next to Wang finally had time to sit down and talk.

Yuan Ze said with some complaints: "Brother, you are really, find something for yourself, our father has said it, you directly tell the Zhu County Order, you are now doing the same thing as Zeng Xiang, and we all know that this errand is not a good thing." ”

Wang Anshi shook his head: "Yuan Ze don't blame your brother, I think he must have his thoughts, if not, you might as well talk to your father." ”

Yuan Ze heard his father say this, and thought that his brother's stubborn temper sometimes twisted up, and he was really like their father Wang Anshi, so he didn't talk much and looked at the king.

Wang put away the expression that seemed to be smiling at Zhu Xianling just now, and turned to Wang Anshi respectfully and said: "Dad, the child is trying to understand the theory of this tax and errand service, and there are still people in this county who rely on their power to evade taxes, and in the end, these deficits are also spread to honest people, if they let them succeed, it will be too cheap for these people, and I will accept this difference." ”
