Chapter Seventy-One: The Honored Guest of the Liang Mansion
After taking a seat in the study.
The city lord personally poured a cup of tea for Long Qingtian: "What is the so-called matter of Long Gongzi coming this time?" ”
"You and I hit it off at first sight, but it doesn't hurt to say, if you can help, you won't refuse."
Seeing that the city lord was so refreshing, Long Qingtian's favor rose again:
"Okay, the juniors did come here today to ask for something, and the juniors want to see Master Si Nong and discuss important matters with him."
"That's it?" The city lord was a little stunned.
"That's it." Long Qingtian replied.
After being stunned for a moment, the city lord shook his head:
"This matter is not difficult, and there is nothing unavoidable, in fact, in our city lord's mansion, Si Nong is also idle, except for me, the city lord, everything else is just a listing."
"Although we are only symbolically stationed in this county, there are many different types of things in a huge county, and we all need full-time people to act cheaply."
"But in order to reduce all kinds of expenditures, we have no choice but to recruit people from outside, and the price paid is only 1/3 of the official position, but there are still many people who want to drill into it with their heads broken."
"And now, this Si Nong of our City Lord's Mansion is my cousin Qi Hengshan."
"He originally served under the state city of Da Si Nong, and for some reason he offended people we couldn't afford to mess with, so I brought him to the county town to hang such an idle position."
"And where is this man now?" Long Qingtian asked, "Can the City Lord introduce me to me?" ”
"Well, that's not a coincidence." The city lord is very sorry: I'm sorry Long Gongzi, my cousin just left yesterday and returned to the state city to do business. ”
"Oh! So when will he return? Long Qingtian was a little disappointed.
"There should be about seven or eight days left." The city lord thought about it and was a little unsure: "If Young Master Long has something urgent, I can repair a letter and let him hurry up and return as soon as possible." ”
"No hurry, no hurry." Long Qingtian didn't want to affect others to deal with things because of himself, so he said: "Then wait for him to come back and visit!" ”
With that, he stood up and wanted to take his leave.
"Long Gongzi is slow." The city lord pressed his hand and suddenly said, "May I ask if Young Master Long is afraid of disturbing the old man, or is he leaving for something important?" ”
This somewhat strange question stunned Long Qingtian for a moment, but he still answered truthfully:
"This time I just took the liberty of visiting, and there are already a lot of disturbances, so why delay your old time?"
The city lord laughed after hearing this: "Since this is the case, you are too worried, and you also know the current situation of my city lord's mansion." ”
"The whole county is almost like an ornament, so there is not much decay now, just a lot of time."
The title has changed from a son to a little friend, and from the emotional distance is one step closer, it can also be seen that the city lord appreciates Long Qingtian.
In the eyes of the city lord, he is upright, not arrogant or impatient, and it is really commendable to be polite and courteous.
Long Qingtian was happy in his heart, he had only been in this world for a short time, and the people he came into contact with were the most knowledgeable old ghosts, but he also knew very little about this place.
An Yue is not bad, but she is limited in age, and she doesn't know much except what she is good at.
And the old man in front of him is different.
Seeing that he looks like he is full of poetry and books, although he seems a little lonely, he is still extraordinary.
In the end, no matter what, he is also from the state city.
And I don't dare to say that everything is understandable, but I believe that there is no problem in solving a problem for yourself.
So he said, "Hehe...... That kid is better to be respectful than to obey his fate, and then bother and bother? ”
"Haha...... Little friends don't have to be polite. "The city lord said.
In just a short period of time, the city lord looked at Long Qingtian more and more satisfied.
"Lord Castle, do you know the purpose of my visit?" Long Qingtian sat down naturally.
"Hehe, Xiaoyou's sudden visit is already extraordinary." The city lord smiled and said:
"If Lao Yu didn't guess wrong, it should be related to the 'tax cut' and 'loan' in Liunan Town, right?"
Long Qingtian was a little stunned: "Who said that the City Lord's Mansion is like a fictitious existence, I think you are old and quiet and profound, and you are meticulous!" ”
The city lord laughed, flicked his gray beard and said:
"Hahaha...... Xiaoyou has won the award, and the old man is just a person who is about to die, so he likes to see if he has nothing to do, and the changes in Qingfeng's acre and three points of land are just that. ”
Although the city lord said it lightly, Long Qingtian already had some suspicions in his heart: the origin of this Lao Tzu in front of him was not simple.
Seeing Long Qingtian's half-believing expression, the city lord continued to speak: "Little friend doesn't need to guess, the reason why the old man knows so much is just empty concern. ”
"Compared with Xiaoyou doing practical things for the people, the old city lord is really ashamed!"
"So if Xiaoyou has anything to solve, although the Tao is old and decrepit, you must know everything, if you can really help you one or two, it can be regarded as doing good deeds and accumulating virtue."
"Okay, then thank you first." Long Qingtian raised his eyebrows and said happily: "Here's how it ......."
He told all about the current situation in Liunan Town......
After listening to Long Qingtian's story, the city lord took a sip of tea and lowered his head to ponder for a moment:
"According to Xiaoyou, you will have three problems at the moment."
"First, find cash crops that are suitable for buying and planting in large quantities."
"Second, there is a funding gap."
"Third, it attracts the hatred that arises around because of the turmoil."
"From my point of view, the first problem is actually the best solution?"
"From the tone of your voice, how do I think you value it the most?"
"The first problem can be solved as long as there are funds."
"But have you calculated how much money you need for such a large investment?"
"Although it is only a small town, it has tens of thousands of square kilometers."
"With such a large-scale investment of yours, I came out to estimate it for you: you will have at least hundreds of thousands of expenses in the first year, more than 100,000 in the second year, and tens of thousands ...... in the third year."
"I know you have personal power, but I don't know what background you have, and you have such a huge financial support, but I really want to ask: do you think it's worth it?"
"The third problem is also very serious, even if you delay until next year, you will be surveying the wasteland."
"In this way, many people will wait to see your jokes for a year, and there will be no conflicts for the time being."
"But once you're measuring, you're going to have to subsidize the grains, and that kind of shock will make a lot of people red."
"In the end, it may spread to more than just Qingfeng and other towns, have you thought about how to deal with it?"
The city lord said as he observed Long Qingtian's face, but when he saw that he mentioned a large amount of money, his face was still unshocked.
When he said the last question, he was only slightly moved, and such an expression couldn't help but make him feel horrified.
Who is this son?
In just two months, the county town has been turned upside down, and it is only slightly moved in the face of surrounding forces.
This bearing, this courage.
Even if it's the general of the main family, it's nothing more than that, right?
"Hehe......" Long Qingtian smiled: "I don't have the funds now, but I will think of a solution." ”
"As for the contradictions from the surrounding areas, to be honest, I am also very worried, but what is the use?"
"Isn't there a year left? Anyway, when the time comes, the soldiers will come to block, and the water will come to cover the earth! ”
Long Qingtian's current small cloth bag does only have tens of thousands of gold, but there are still 10 Zhuji Dan, which is nearly 100,000!
The point is that he can refine the pill himself, like a cash cow that can't finish the golden pimple.
However, although he is a cash cow, the resources he needs to cultivate are also a gold cave.
If An Yue can't get it for a while, he can increase the second-grade pill for cultivation, and if he relies on buying the pill directly, he is afraid that he will not even be able to support himself.
As for the threat of contradictions around him, although he was worried, he was not particularly concerned.
Who can tell in a year's time?
In fact, what he is most worried about is that he is afraid of this contradiction, and it will be delayed for less than a year!
Because of Lu Zimo's "tax cut" strategy, the premature appearance is already a big taboo, and if you add half a year to the aquatic products, you can see the benefits......
The city lord saw that Long Qingtian was so assertive, so he didn't say more.
In the end, Long Qingtian asked a lot more, and the knowledge that was not in the books, the city lord answered them one by one very patiently, so that Long Qingtian was full of harvest and left with a smile.
……
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
Let's say that at the same time as Long Qingtian went to the City Lord's Mansion, the owner of the scholarly house, Mo Wenhan, also came to the gate of the Liang Mansion.
He didn't get out of the car, but Xiao Anzi went to the door, and said confidently at the guard:
"Go and inform the head of your family, just say that the Mo family, the first family in the state city, and the young master Mo came to visit."
When the guards heard the title of this newspaper, they were frightened and rushed away in a panic.
After a while, a man wearing a melon skin hat and looking like a butler came in a hurry.
Before anyone reached the door, a voice was heard: "Oops! , Mo Gongzi is coming, there is a loss of distance to welcome and a loss of distance to welcome! ”
Then a chubby, meat-like middle-aged man "rolled out", he glanced at Xiao Anzi who was looking at the sky, and hurriedly walked towards the gorgeous carriage next to him.
As you walk, you will say:
"Hahaha...... Mo Gongzi! There is a loss of distance to welcome and a loss of distance to welcome, in the Xialiang Mansion housekeeper Ma Lin, specially came to greet the son. ”
Seeing that there was no sound in the carriage, he continued:
"Master Mo, you are a distinguished guest of our Liang Mansion, when the head of my family learned that you were coming, he immediately went to change clothes and wash to show his attention, so he let the little one ......"
"Hmm." In the middle of the carriage, a voice sounded: "Steward Ma doesn't have to lead the way in front politely!" ”
Before the words fell, Mo Wenhan walked out of the carriage in a graceful manner, and his jade tree was gentle and elegant, so that the man Steward Ma had to say secretly: Okay.
Seeing Mo Wenhan come out, Xiao Anzi immediately looked like one, and when he saw the master's pug, he immediately "pounced" over and said:
"Ouch, Childe, slow down......"
