Chapter 31 The act of taking the wrong medicine
With Tu Qizhi's unexpected food, Wang Dalun finally breathed a sigh of relief, after all, he felt a lot of pressure when he thought of having tens of thousands of mouths to feed every day.
But if you have food, you can't use it indiscriminately, Wang Dalun doesn't raise idlers, whether you are a homeless or a resident, he treats everyone equally, if you want to eat, no problem, you are full, but the premise is that you have to work! There is no free lunch in the world, and there is no reward for not paying.
But for what? Wang Dalun had a headache at first, what kind of reservoir and these public facilities you said, Wang Dalun was very reluctant, why, because the big families in the city are too unproductive, and Huang Zhengxiang is also very disagreeable, Wang Dalun is unwilling to do such a stupid thing.
But if you don't work, it's not a way to let so many people be idle in vain, so the next day Wang Dalun took people to the prefect's yamen.
"Wang Tuantou, our prefect is busy with official business and has no time to see you, why don't you come back another day?" The master who reported the situation said to Wang Dalun very politely, although polite, but with estrangement, as if Wang Dalun was a moldy star.
"You go and tell Governor Huang that if he doesn't see me today, then I will leave tomorrow and take all my food away, and the Lord of Yan'an will not stay!" Wang Dalun said aggressively.
"Don't! Wang Tuantou, wait a minute, I'll report to our prefect! "When the master heard that Wang Dalun was leaving, he also panicked, if Wang Dalun left, what would happen to the tens of thousands of people outside the city gate? At that time, everyone had no good end, and this was tens of thousands of mouths! can eat Yan'an Mansion poorly.
After a while, the master came over with a smile on his face and said very politely: "Wang Tuantou, the prefect is waiting for you in the reception room!" ”
Wang Dalun nodded, walked in with his master, and saw a middle-aged man sitting in his seat, looking at him.
"See Lord Huang!" Wang Dalun arched his hand very casually, and his expression was as careless as he was.
Huang Zhengxiang frowned, showing that he was very dissatisfied with Wang Dalun's casualness, after all, he was the head of a mansion, and Wang Dalun disrespected him too much. He held back his anger and asked, "Is there anything Wang Tuantou looking for me?" ”
Wang Dalun couldn't help but roll his eyes, didn't you ask knowingly, I didn't eat too much to come to chat with you? I'm not that idle, am I?
"My lord, of course I have something to look for you, and it's a matter of urgency!"
"What's the matter?"
"My lord also knows that there are tens of thousands of homeless people outside the city, and their daily food is a big number.
"But there's no food in the state capital! If you want, I will give it to you a long time ago, if you don't believe it, you can go to the grain depot to see, I won't hide the grain like Tu Qizhi. Huang Zhengxiang is actually very concerned about Wang Dalun's stun Tu Qizhi, after all, Tu Qizhi can be a man, and he has offerings during the New Year's holidays.
"Hehe, my lord is a scholar, how can I compare with President Tu!" Wang Dalun said sarcastically, he changed the topic and said: "This time I am looking for adults, not to ask for food, I want adults to build roads!" ”
"Build roads? What kind of road do you build in a good way? And now it's a great drought, and there's no silver to come out of the treasury! Huang Zhengxiang was very puzzled, in his opinion, Wang Dalun was sick in the brain. And the dog takes the mouse, meddling in things, you can do a good job of disaster relief, and what to do if you don't want to do it.
"I know that there is no money in the treasury, and there is no silver! But why do we need to build roads, because there are a lot of displaced people now, and we can't give them leisure, and when people are idle, they will cause a lot of trouble. And if I don't build roads, I can't afford to support so many people! ”
"Then you can feed so many people by building roads?" Huang Zhengxiang said very funny, it's really whimsical, building a road can drop food from the sky?
"As long as the adults can delegate the right to build the road to me, I promise to change Yan'an Mansion again!" Wang Dalun said confidently.
"I don't have any money for you!" Huang Zhengxiang said in advance.
"My lord, I will advance all the money and food for this road construction, of course, I don't think my adult will let me go bankrupt for the road construction, right? I can't even get money and food, that is, I will allocate some barren mountains and official land in Yanchang County, do you think this is feasible? Wang Dalun began to throw out his conditions.
"Yanchang County? What do you want to do with those lands? It's not a great place there!" Huang Zhengxiang said curiously.
"Hehe, this is something that can't be helped, the day before yesterday, a fortune teller told me a hexagram, saying that I want to buy land in Yanchang County to make a fortune, so I'll try it. Anyway, after paying so much money and food, you have to take back something. "Wang Dalun's lies now come out of his mouth, and there is no psychological burden at all.
Huang Zhengxiang laughed in his heart, it seems that this Wang Dalun has suffered retribution, and the fortune teller estimates that he has a holiday with him, and deliberately rectifies him, can he make a fortune in Yanchang County? The land is very barren, I see how you Wang Hu fell this big heel this time, plant, plant, I see what you can grow.
Fantasizing about Wang Dalun's regret and bad luck in the future, Huang Zhengxiang's expression on his face remained unchanged, and he decided to pit Wang Dalun a little more, so he said: "There is not much official land left, only some wasteland and barren mountains, if you want, I can give it all to you!" ”
"Thank you, sir!" Wang Dalun said in surprise, this is a big gift! It seems that the places where oil is produced are not very good.
Huang Zhengxiang looked at Wang Dalun's surprised appearance, and sighed in his heart, fool, really a fool! Fang Wenjin has such a stupid son-in-law, it's really unlucky.
And Wang Dalun waited for Huang Zhengxiang to sign the transfer documents, and rushed out of the yamen, and he is now very happy.
"Young Master, shall we go back?" Wang Qiwa asked on the side, hey, it's really impossible to spread a young master who often makes stupid mistakes!
"No, we are going to visit the big families in the city now, how can they not participate and support such a good thing as building roads!" Wang Dalun said very proudly.
"Young Master, let's not go, Master Fang can't go, can you go to those big households to get food?" Wang Qiwa was quite speechless for Wang Dalun, could it be that the young master had a brain disease today and took the wrong medicine.
"Hehe, my father-in-law is a gentleman, I'm a villain, to deal with these unplucked iron cocks, you have to use my methods, you wait! I'm sure I'll be able to get them to take out the food!" Wang Dalun said confidently.
"Oh! It's true? Wang Qiwa replied, he began to be curious, could it be that the young master was really more powerful than Lord Fang, and he could get food?
"Look at me! Walk! Wang Dalun said confidently.
Two hours later, Wang Qiwa completely lost confidence in Wang Dalun, in his opinion, Wang Dalun was too much of a failure, Fang Wenjin could at least enter the door of others and see the main owner. As for Wang Dalun, the cowhide blew loudly, but when he went to someone's house, many of the main owners were sent out without seeing him.
Wang Qiwa was even more speechless to Wang Dalun, Wang Dalun seemed to be a different person, he was snubbed, and he didn't see any dissatisfaction, on the contrary, he still smiled and groaned, as if people really gave him food. Could it be that the young master's so-called trick is to laugh? Wang Qiwa was very puzzled!
When she was asked to go out again, Wang Qiwa couldn't help it, "Young master, let's go back!" Let's not go to the next few houses, and it's in vain to go. "Hey, it's too embarrassing today, Wang Qiwa feels that her face is very dull.
"Go! Why not go? Don't talk nonsense, let's go on to the next one, I don't believe it, no one gives me food! Wang Dalun didn't feel ashamed, he continued to visit.
"Hey!" Wang Qiwa sighed, hard life, the young master couldn't really take the wrong medicine, why is it so abnormal, hey, it's not easy to be a little girl, only to follow and lose face.
When it was time for dinner, all the big families in the city were finally visited by Wang Dalun, he was always smiling on his face, seeing Wang Qiwa's listless appearance, he couldn't help touching his head and said, "What? Tired? Let's go, I'll take you to a big dinner today! ”
"Young Master! I'm not tired, I think we worked in vain today, you were so snubbed, are you still in the mood to eat? I can't eat it anyway! Wang Qiwa said angrily.
"Hehe, little ghost, how old people are, they all know that they want to save face, calm, calm! Who said that we worked hard in vain today, I have gained a lot today, let's go and eat a big meal! I'm in a good mood today, I'm going to have a big meal! Wang Dalun couldn't help laughing, this little guy is so cute.
"I'm not young, I can ask for a daughter-in-law next year!" Wang Qiwa protested.
"Okay, you're not young, can you have a meal with me? I've been in Yan'an for so long, and I haven't tasted the local specialties! Wang Dalun said with a smile.
"Okay!" Wang Qiwa said weakly, he really didn't have much appetite today.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Wang Dalun had a good appetite and ate a lot of food, while Wang Qiwa was unpleasant, so he ate a little hastily, and watched Wang Dalun be swept there.
"Huh" Wang Dalun burped, stretched his waist very comfortably, and said with a smile: "It's delicious, although the price is a little expensive, but it's not bad, I'm really full today!" I've decided to come here more times in the future! ”
"Of course it's delicious, ten taels of silver for a table of dishes! Master, let's not come here to eat in the future, it's too expensive! Wang Qiwa said very distressedly, ten taels of silver can be enough for him to ask for two daughters-in-law, or he can build a big house.
"Hehe, distressed? Don't worry, your young master has a lot of money, and this money can't be eaten by me. Wang Dalun said indifferently.
"You can't waste a lot of money like that!" Wang Qiwa muttered quietly.
"Okay, listen to you, I won't spend money in the future, but well, we will still come to this restaurant in the future!" Wang Dalun made a funny concession.
"Coming back? Young Master..." Wang Qiwa was surprised.
"Of course it's coming! But don't worry, if we don't pay for it in the future, someone will treat you. Can my Wang's face be swept casually? Wang Dalun said meaningfully.
