Chapter 220: Mind Money
As if thinking that Donghu didn't understand, he continued, "The market is also a fair deal, and there is an official road next to it, you don't go, you don't take the road that the people cultivate privately." This is like, if you don't live in a plop inn, you have to live in the upper room.
Shangma, naturally, it costs more money, and this road is the same, and when you go, you have to leave a heart as a thank you for the hard work of the people in the city. There were a lot of people who built the road at the beginning, and no one could find them one by one to thank them, so they replaced them with silver money. ”
Heart, thanks?
Isn't it just a toll?
No wonder the road next to it was broken like that and it was not repaired, so it was waiting here.
Donghu hugged his shoulders and asked, "It's really strange that there are many things every year, especially this year, Wang Fa Zhaozhao, the mainland is facing the sky, you are blatantly defrauding people of money and collecting travel fees?" It's really a joke to be wearing this shirt. ”
The man smiled innocently, "You are wrong, when did I say that this money is the road fee, but I have said more than once that this money is the money for the people to build roads."
Also, what's wrong with this shirt? This shirt is also an official uniform, and the fact that we wear this shows that we regard the people as relatives. You see, on such a cold day, our breath freezes into ice, but we are still here to collect money for them. This intention can not be explained in one or two sentences.
Hey, we have good hearts, kindness! It's hard to find good people like us......"
Donghu laughed angrily, "It's really a strong word, you did this, but you broke the law, and it will be passed out, but you will be responsible." I heard that His Majesty has given the target county to the county lord of Ning'an, if His Royal Highness the county lord knows about this......"
"Haha......" Before Donghu could finish speaking, the man laughed.
He smiled, and so did everyone he led. They laughed and staggered, as if they had heard the funniest joke.
"The county lord? Ha...... The county master is in Shengjing, where can you take care of the target county where the emperor is far away this day, this little brother, you still have to save it, there are some things you don't have to worry about, you better worry less. ”
Donghu didn't want to be entangled anymore, and asked, "Do you know who is sitting in the carriage?" ”
The man snorted, "It doesn't matter who you are, the king of heaven and Lao Tzu are coming, you have to be reasonable, twenty-three dollars!" He reached out.
Donghu seemed to have lost his temper, and the two guards next to him dressed as followers also stepped forward.
The man snorted, and more than two dozen people behind him also gathered around.
Although the number of opponents is large, but they are procrastinating and procrastinating, they are all half-hangers who can only have some punches and kicks, if they fight, all of them can't even catch the three moves of Ming Qi Donghu.
However, these are just small minions, and a fight will not solve anything.
"East Tiger." I called.
"Yes, girl, but what do you command?" He answered.
As he said, this is a heart for the people of the city. Let's give them twenty-three dollars, it's freezing on this day, they can also help easily, and give them some wine money. ”
"Yes......" Donghu responded, and instead took out the money bag from his sleeve and handed over a piece of broken silver about half a tael in the bag.
This group of people, it is estimated that they are also here all the year round, but there is definitely no one to give, take the silver, his face immediately smiled like a flower, as soon as he raised his hand, someone moved the roadblock in front of him.
He bowed down and made a gesture of invitation, "The little generation of the people thanked this girl, you invited." ”
I asked him in the car, "This official, dare to ask, ahead, but there is still money in the heart?" ”
He smiled, "No, naturally there is no more, so the girl can rest assured." ”
I said again, "This official, the little woman has something unclear, and I don't know whether to ask or not." ”
He took my money for the wine, and I spoke softly, so he naturally nodded, "What does the girl want to know, if we know, we will tell each other." ”
"Then thank you, sir." I asked, "Official, this is a matter of collecting money for the people, but what does the target county city lord mean?" ”
"It's nature." He nodded.
I asked again, "This official, there are a lot of people coming and going here every day, and the road next to it is already broken, the people in the city, since this road can be repaired, why not repair the road on the side?" ”
He smiled and replied, "I don't know about this little one." The little ones are only in charge of their own affairs. ”
I asked again, ""
Seeing his appearance, I didn't know what to ask, and I didn't bother to talk nonsense with him anymore, so I thanked him and ordered the carriage to go forward. When the line was far away from the roadblock, Lu Zhu said, "Miss, we can obviously show our identities, why do we still give them money?" ”
I shook my head and said, "It's only half a tael of silver, and if you give it, you will give it." I've been coming from Shengjing for half a month, and I'm afraid that the news of coming has already reached the target county.
This card setting is obviously what the city lord intended. Knowing that I was coming, he didn't even make a show and pause, obviously not taking me seriously.
In this case, there is no difference between saying it and not saying it. Besides, the situation in the city is unknown, so let's wait and see what the situation is talking about. ”
Luzhu is not a stupid person, and he knows it after a little thought.
Since the chariots and horses got on the Tu Road, the road was smooth, and after traveling for about an hour, they arrived at the gate of the target county.
Don't look at the dilapidated official road, this city gate is very well repaired.
The glazed tile corner warped weir lamp, the copper door post nailed stone lion, that is called a towering.
Xu is far away from Shengjing, and the eyes of the target soldiers here are a little depressed, but they stand upright, and at a glance, they can barely bluff people.
The ninth day of this month is the lively day, today is the third day of the new year, many inns in the city have no rooms, we have searched for seven or eight in a row, and finally one has just retired the guests.
The first floor of this inn is a shop, and it has been inhabited by a row of people, and there are a total of six rooms on the second floor, all of which are still empty. Although this room is not big, it looks clean. I'm afraid that it won't be better to look for it, so I'll stop here.
Zhou Ma tired, seeing that it was almost evening, this inn is not big, naturally can not prepare meals, fortunately, when you go out and turn a street is the downtown area, this will clean up and go downstairs with Luzhu.
"Hey...... Girl, you're going out—" The proprietress called out to me, as if to say something.
"This sister, but what's the matter?"
She glanced out of the door, then at the two of us, and said, "It's getting late, you two are girls, if you don't go out, it's better not to go out, it's not safe outside." ”
"Not safe?" I asked, "Please make this sister clear, why isn't it safe?" ”
She sighed and said, "Hey, this girl, if you look good, the slave will tell you." Why are we here, it was originally quite safe, but half a month ago, a flower thief who had been cut a thousand knives came out of nowhere.
This thief is vicious and vicious, and he stares at the night girl's house, not only ruining people, but also hurting people. In the past half a month, there have been seven or eight girls who have been killed, and all of them have lost their lives, and everyone does not dare to go out again at night.
Girl, it's getting dark, so you'd better be careful. ”
Lu Zhu seemed to be a little scared, "Miss, otherwise, let's not go out, in case we meet something, I'm afraid it's not good." ”
I wasn't afraid, but I was a little curious, "This sister, this flower thief, has been here for half a month, and the government doesn't take care of it?" ”
"Official ......" The proprietress snorted, opened her mouth to say something, but suddenly someone behind her coughed a few times, she quickly shut up, stopped talking to us, and pretended to bow her head and plan to plate.
Naturally, I didn't want to ask about this situation, but after thinking about it, I finally decided to go out for a walk.
It's not dark yet, so it shouldn't be fine.
Although it is close to night, but the restaurant in the downtown is indeed brightly lit, I found a restaurant with more people, and before I got to the door, Xiao Er came to greet him, "Please inside the guest officer, our restaurant has a complete range of dishes, and you will eat once and think about the second time." ”
There was an empty table at the corner, I went over, Xiao Er hurriedly took the vegetable book, I ordered a few signature dishes, and added a pot of fruit sherbet, Xiao Er nodded and responded, and after a while, the dishes were all ready.
Four dishes, full of color and flavor, really appetizing, I picked up the chopsticks to pick up a piece of crispy meat, and before I could put it in my mouth, I suddenly felt a gaze staring at me behind me.
