In the past two days, Sheng Ying helped deal with the affairs of this girl's family, and when everything was fine, she brought this girl to meet the saint. Kangxi took out the book and read it for the past two days, and the rest of the time he carefully touched the aftertaste, and kept saying that this is a strange book in the world, which is simply the officialdom and the things that hook up and back in front of him. From ancient times to the present, in all dynasties, where there are people, there are struggles, there is oppression, and there is corruption in officialdom.

Just thinking about it, Shangguan Hong took Sheng Ying and the two to return to their lives, the matter has been completed, and the girl has already been trained in the rules and etiquette, the woman learns quickly, and she has been educated in poetry and books, so she let this girl serve Kangxi. Kangxi asked her about the situation, and she was taken aback, and moved out of the officialdom of the Kangxi Dynasty with joy and tears.

The woman's name is Li Qinglian, her mother died a few years ago, her father also passed away a few days ago, there is still a brother in the family, the family is also living well, harmonious, peaceful, but a few months ago, the government took away all the adult men in the town, about 300 men under 60, saying that it was to repair the garden of the Qi family, and the salary was good, who knew that it would be three months, one night, the father sneaked home, and when he came back, he couldn't afford to be sick, and he died a few days ago.

It turned out that these three hundred people were locked up in the Qi family garden, and there was nothing but the wall. Just eat and drink once a day, sleep for three or five hours, the rest of the time is like cattle work, either beating or scolding, many people died quietly pulled outside, thrown into the Yellow River, it is said that the people who come back now, did not get paid, said that they will be given later, dare to talk nonsense, then they are arrested and tortured, so, now there are complaints, but everyone dares to be angry but dare not speak.

After listening, Kangxi's face was gloomy, Shangguan Hong asked Li Qinglian to go out first, and then, Shangguan Hong said: "After the third master's people came to Qijia Town, they lived in the mansion of Qi Mian, the filial piety and honesty. ”

Sheng Ying smiled: "Third master, we are traveling this time, staying in any place, and the inn in any place will be fully booked, and then it will be sold for a good price, which is to sell for money." ”

But Kangxi was anxious, and looked at Sheng Ying with blank eyes, Sheng Ying paused there as if telling a story, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Leng Buding Shangguan Hong slapped the back of his head, which frightened Sheng Ying and shrank his neck, and smiled: "Third master, don't worry, I'm laying the groundwork first, I'm afraid that you will suddenly hear the news, and you can't stand it, do you know, this is to see the third master, you and your family." ”

Kangxi is a smart emperor, the dragon and phoenix among the people, I understand it when I hear it, and I scolded these dogs in my mouth, and I actually started this kind of thing, needless to say, it is officials, businessmen and celebrities from all over the world to watch, a few of us have just seen the monkeys, I didn't expect people to see us as monkeys, it is really infuriating, Guansheng is to express the admiration of the people, but if Guansheng is regarded as a business and a way to win over people, it really makes people angry and laughing.

Then, he ordered Shangguan Hong and the others: "Immediately find out who is responsible for handling this matter, find out the list of officials who come to see us monkeys, and remember to collect the money in person when the time comes, we can't let people look at it in vain, but the money is earned by others." The other is what is going on in the Qi family's garden and what is hidden. ”

Shangguan Hong then asked Bai Yuhan and others to protect Kangxi's safety every day, and he and Sheng Ying went to find a way to solve the case, which is easy to say, but not so simple to do, the truth will not come out by itself, so I can only do it hard.

Shangguan Hong and the others wandered around the street aimlessly, in fact, under the guise of purchasing items, they came to an antique store, and casually took a fan to look at the fan surface, at this moment, a voice came in, and said in a humble voice: "Let one let let one let let one, Hu shopkeeper, Hu shopkeeper, Master Qian has arrived, don't come out quickly and wait, man, what are you waiting for." ”

Shangguan Hong looked back and saw a tall fat man with a pig's head and big ears, shaking his body and coming in, and a man with a white face in brocade clothes and a monkey cheek came in behind, covered with copper stench all over his body, and pounded everything that could be hung on his body and what he wore on his body, for fear that others would not know or see it. followed closely by a few followers, looking very good, and the posture and scene were not small.

The guy saw that it was these people, and he didn't dare to delay for a moment, while sending the young man, the shopkeeper came to the front hall quickly, with a smile on his face, beckoning someone to make the best Mingqian tea for Master Qian, and waited on the side.

The shopkeeper arrived in a short time, and no one heard the voice first: "Hey, I said why I was happy today, it turned out that Uncle Qian was coming, I knew this, so I sat in the front hall and ascended to immortal, and I also wanted to greet Master Qian." ”

After that, I saw a person come in, short in stature, lean, with fine eyes, acting like the wind, quiet as a golden bell, and quick to react, it was Hu Shopkeeper. Seeing that his face was full of spring breeze, he trotted all the way to the front, and said with a flattering smile: "Master, I have changed a lot of good things from the Tang and Song dynasties recently, and I have kept them for you, and then within a radius of 100 miles, you have the strength to do it, so you don't dare to shoot easily, and wait for you to pass the eyes, and only then do you dare to take it out to others, master, what do you have to say, I will definitely make you satisfied." ”

The old man Qian was very impressed by the attitude of the shopkeeper Hu, took a sip of tea with satisfaction, and said slowly: "It's easy to say, I can still trust the shopkeeper Hu's storefront, as long as it is a good object, it can get into my eyes, and the price is not a problem." ”

Shopkeeper Hu instructed the guy to take out the things at the bottom of the box, let Master Qian take a look, obviously, this is a Mengzi, is a stupid kiln, don't know how to pretend to understand, Shopkeeper Hu spit lotus flowers in his mouth, while performing the technique of blowing and patting, and poured the ecstasy soup into him in one go, three pieces of two hundred taels of things, sold for five thousand taels, and one of them is not right, that is, fake.

Mr. Qian was very satisfied: "I have all the good things to keep, especially the elegant and simple ones, which can show my literati and politeness, I want them all." ”

Shopkeeper Hu said with a smile: "Don't worry, master, it seems that you have recently earned a lot from the business in the Qi family's garden, hehehehe." After that, he deliberately covered his mouth and smiled at Master Qian, looking like a slave who patted a horse, and Master Qian returned satisfied.

"Go slowly!" After sending off Mr. Qian, the shopkeeper Hu's face immediately regained his calm, picked up the cup, poured a cup of tea, hummed a little song, and closed his eyes beautifully. Shangguan Hong said loudly to Sheng Ying: "Fake, that Song Yaoqing just now, fake." ”

The shopkeeper Hu didn't swallow a mouthful of water, it all squirted out, and he looked for prestige in shock, and saw Sheng Ying say loudly: "What? Master, I didn't hear clearly, what did you say? Shangguan Hong looked around and pointed at the shopkeeper Hu with his finger: "He, just now, sold, bottles, fake." As soon as the two sang and harmonized, the Hu shopkeeper's soul was frightened, ran to the front, motioned for the two to speak quietly, and led them to the back hall, and instructed the men to serve good tea and fruit snacks.

Sheng Ying smiled: "Shopkeeper Hu, congratulations on making a fortune, but if you have the slightest lie and fool me as the money master, hehe, then congratulations to you, you will be unlucky from now on!" ”
