Chapter 225: The Rich Household's Loyalty (2)

The street is more lively than in the past, but because of the recruitment notice of the two counties, the news on the county has stirred up the young and middle-aged people in the county.

The rewards and punishments in front of the cave are still vivid, and they tell everyone that they are followed by the two county masters, and there are also silver and names. How many people regretted not reporting the quota on the other side of the cave.

Now that the official kiln has been opened, aside from a group of workers who have followed the craftsmen in the official kiln to help the small number of workers who have quickly registered their names, there are still many young and middle-aged people in the two counties who rely on the mountains and water to eat and water.

It is clearly written on the top that the shorter the construction period of the Tzu An Tang and the three private schools, the better, doesn't this mean that the more workers are needed, the better! If there are many people, it will naturally be your turn!

In addition to a large number of young adults, many women were moved by the news above.

The two county commanders have been in office for a long time, and who doesn't know that they are generous and reasonable. The woman's family sews and repairs the housekeeper on weekdays, so what about one more job! Both horizontally and vertically are sprinkled and swept away, and they are used to doing the work.

Everyone on the street couldn't hide their excitement, and their steps were much faster than usual, and they thought they were going home to discuss.

That's not all!

Even more lively are the twenty or so carriages that you chase after me all the way, like a race without stopping, but now everyone on the street is in a hurry to go home, walking more hurriedly, and the road is much more spacious.

Rao was like this, and the rest of the passers-by were also shocked by this sight.

"Is this a rush to reincarnate?! If you hit someone, see what you do! ”

"Let's go to the adults to complain, I think they have a few guts!"

The housekeepers who were hurrying in front of the carriage heard it with a sad face. This! This is really no way, who would have thought that everyone would want to go together today, and they would all brush up to send silver to the two adults. One by one, the carriages ran out of all the doors, and some of them were sent by their own masters with the silver, one step later and one step slower, all of them took advantage of other families.

But if it was to be accused of chasing him, it would naturally not be possible, so the carriage on the street galloped all the way, and the steward who drove on top of him bowed to everyone like begging for mercy.

Everyone looked at the roadside and felt a little strange.

"Isn't this a carriage from a few old men's houses! What kind of day is today, and these old men have been urged out! ”

Someone next to him replied, "Who knows! No matter what he does, I have to go home and discuss, this time I have to move faster, don't be in a hurry if I can't report my name! ”

"You can't catch up, but you still have your daughter-in-law, our action of not marrying a daughter-in-law is faster!"

"Then you have to hurry up, maybe when you finish this trip, you will save the capital to marry your daughter-in-law!"

This sentence made everyone laugh, and who said that it was not.

Anyone can work hard, but not everyone is as generous as the two county orders. If they can catch it, it's a trip, and it's not a good time to go anywhere else.

After saying a few more words, when the carriage passed in a hurry, the people on the side also hurried back to their respective homes.

……

On the other side, the carriage drove all the way to the front of the house, and at once these many carriages were crowded together, and the little housekeepers of each family said a word to me, surrounding the entrance of the street and alley and shouting noisily. The people in the carriage had not yet come down, and the people below were already eye-to-eye, nose-to-nose and nose-to-nose.

Everyone knows why this trip is going on, and naturally they look at people's eyes with cold eyebrows, and they raise their chins and hum.

"I don't know which faceless person is afraid of listening to the corner under the wall, and rushing all the way over to steal the limelight!"

"Who's going to listen to the corners of your house?! I said you put your eyes on us! ”

"But across one or two walls and a few yards, who is sparse in your house?! You should be a spy of the enemy! ”

This group of people don't dare to make more trouble, you and I don't say a word, no matter how much you say, you are afraid of causing trouble at home, but this person is really a lot, and a few words will make a fuss.

The people below were arguing, but the landlords in their teens and twenties were cheeky, and they still had a smile on their faces, and they each hugged their hands and greeted them a few times.

turned his back, but he also snorted coldly.

Steward Qiu said that after the small concierge left, he listened to the explanation of the spring return, waited in front of his own yard, listened to the two girls in the family talk about some trivial things, and pieced together and probably knew the plans of the master's family.

He hurriedly went over and opened the door, and when he opened it, he saw a grand scene, not counting the whole carriage lined up at the door of the house, and the crowd around the carriage were all dressed in satin clothes, and they looked like rich idlers who passed the time in the shop on weekdays.

The group was not in the shop, but waited at the door of the house.

After seeing him, the ten or twenty rich men rushed up one after another as if they had seen a piece of fat.

The one at the front preemptively said, "Steward Qiu!" Are the two adults at home? Help me report it, and say that my Wang is coming to visit the adults, and I have something important to discuss! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the other followed: "Don't listen to him! I'm here to make sure I have something important! Tell me in advance! ”

"I have if, too! Steward Qiu......"

"Steward Qiu......"

These many people are rich families with heads and faces in this town, and they either recuperate at home on weekdays, or carry bird cages outside leisurely, how can they be in such a hurry and panic as today.

Steward Qiu was stunned for a moment, and before he could reply, he was pressed by the first burst of pleading.

This scene is getting more and more noisy.

He hurriedly made a gesture: "Ladies and gentlemen, please don't be impatient!" Let me go in and let me know! ”

After saying that, he closed the door tightly.

After closing the door, he breathed a sigh of relief, Rao was prepared, and he was also shocked by this scene.

After a pause, he hurriedly ran to the inner study.

The crowd outside the door was not annoyed when they were slammed shut, but they were a little anxious to see so many people on the side who were grabbing this name with themselves.

All the people here, who didn't come with enough silver, and whose sincerity was not less, how did these two adults choose?

Before they entered the door, the group of people was already anxious.

After a while, the door opened again, and Steward Qiu faded away from the surprise he had just had, and his face was very calm.

"Gentlemen, please come with me." He looked at the group of small concierges behind him, and his eyebrows jumped.

With so many people, I'm afraid that the teacups at home are not enough.

He looked at everyone respectfully and embarrassedly: "This ...... I am afraid that the main hall at home will not be able to accommodate these many people, so please wait outside. ”

He opened this mouth, and the rich people naturally agreed: "You just wait outside, you don't need to follow up!" ”

There are about 40 people in charge of the small housekeeper alone, and they also occupy space when they go in.

Seeing this, Steward Qiu led everyone to the door.

The house is pitifully small for these rich families, the merchants can't wear silk and satin, so they work this house, the house is built and built, expanded and expanded, at this moment I saw this small mansion at first glance, and I was quite uncomfortable, and my mouth turned a corner, and praised: "My lord is really a breeze with two sleeves!" ”

"yes, yes! It's better to be ashamed than to be ashamed of yourself! ”

The corners of Steward Qiu's mouth twitched when he heard this, it seems that it must be a big deal for these rich men to seek today.

There are more than 20 people, fortunately, there are still a lot of tables, chairs and benches, which can fill the main hall.

After the two maids had tea, Steward Qiu turned into the path at the fence and went to the next door to call for someone, and this group of familiar old fellows were left in the crowded main hall. In the past, they could talk a few words when they met, but today they each hummed a few times and drank each with a teacup.

The family thought that these rich people would not move slowly, but they didn't expect it to be so fast, and they all seemed to be agreed, and more than 20 people came.

Even if she is here, she also has a number in her heart today, involving major events in the county, she and Guo Ruyi can give advice at home, and it is inconvenient to show their faces in front of outsiders. Therefore, I only asked Steward Qiu to go next door and call Zhixing.

By the time Qi You and Zhixing arrived at the main hall together, the group had already drunk two or three bowls of tea, not because they were thirsty, but because they were worried and anxious.

Anyone who sees an opportunity to become famous and praised by the saint will not be at peace in his heart, not to mention that there are so many people fighting with him.

Flustered and anxious, this group of people saw Zhixing and Qi You coming, and got up in a hurry, regardless of whether the tea bowl was hot or not, and hurriedly held it and put it down.

"Your Excellency!"

"Your Excellency is here!"

……

Listening to the shouts one after another, everyone was excited, and Qi You Zhixing sighed in their hearts, this is really fast.

Qi You said softly: "You are all old, so you don't need to be polite. ”

swept around, full of twenty people, none of them fell.

He continued: "Do you have any important business? What happened to you? ”

As soon as this question fell, this group of rich people who had been holding back for a long time rushed to ask one by one like the faucets that had opened the floodgates:

"My lord! Are we going to build Ci'an Church in these two counties? ”

"This Ci'an Hall and private school will cost the government a lot of money! What kindness and kindness! ”

"My lord, you have a place for the little old man here......

……

After a series of times, the entire main hall was also in an uproar.

Zhixing was almost stunned, he had seen enthusiasm, but he had never seen anyone rushing over to send money.

This noisy and shouting, I couldn't hear what I said, Zhixing hurriedly coughed a few times: "Everyone, silence!" Say them one by one! ”

As soon as he reminded them, these people felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly arched their hands towards the two.

Seeing this, Qi You nodded to the first person: "Outside the Qi staff, you speak first." ”

This Qi Yuanwai happens to be the main family of the two of them, the family is in the coal business, quite old, and there is a son who travels to study, and even the whole family is also full of books.

Qi Yuanwai bowed his hands, and smiled rather roundabout and said: "That's the case, Xiao Lao'er saw the notice posted by the two adults this morning, our two counties really have two blue sky masters!" ”

Qi You picked up the teacup and chuckled: "Just say it directly." ”
