Meng Lie shook off Wuji's hand and said expressionlessly, "Why does Master Xuanyangzi think that I will inform you of the news before the adults?" ”

Wujie chased after him and said with a smile: "Still angry...... I said, when will your anger go down? ”

Meng Lie didn't bother to pay attention, but he blocked his way again, and he reluctantly raised his hand and said, "Okay, it's all my fault in the first place......

Meng Lie twisted his eyebrows, and looked suspiciously at the endless who diligently turned over the old accounts, turning over the old accounts is common, but it is not common for those who are in arrears to take the initiative to turn over the old accounts to find scolding.

Wu Ji sighed heavily: "It's better to do this, I will punish myself with three cups today and officially make amends to you!" ”

After finishing speaking, the saluted hand stretched out to Meng Lie, and smiled cheekily: "You give me ten taels of silver, and I will go to the street to buy wine, and I will make amends with you when I come back!" ”

"......" Meng Lie laughed "heh".

It turned out that he had no money to buy wine, so he asked him for wine money in a different way.

"Can't give!"

Ah Dian suddenly appeared, strode forward, stopped between the two, and looked at Wujie with a straight face: "I said that I can only drink twice a month!" ”

As he spoke, he turned to face Meng Lie again, puffed up his chest and said, "Uncle Meng, you have to listen to me in this matter!" Temple...... Xiao Sui Ning has already named me a health overseer! ”

Wu Jie's face was bitter, what kind of health overseer, he was the only soldier under his hands! Leave him alone!

At first, in order to distract the attention of the Ah Dian Overseers, he wanted to pull Lao Chang to endure hardships together, but when he went to Ordinary Kuo that day, he saw that Chang Kuo, who had only one good leg left, was still beating wooden stakes in the courtyard to practice boxing......

At that time, it happened that the eldest princess of Xuan'an came to find her, and I saw Lao Chang tearing off his shirt again and practicing more energetically......

Chang Kuo's excellent tendon flesh is old but not woody, and the beads of sweat hanging on it are even more blind.

Running away from the wilderness when there is no extinction - it is obviously not a good thing to suffer with such people.

Because of this, he can only be stared at by Ah Dian every day, just because of the bad deeds of stealing two times of drinking, his private money has also been confiscated, and even the money bag that was secretly hidden under the bed was ruthlessly dug out by Black Chestnut.

If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have been able to make such a decision to ask Meng Lie for wine money at this moment.

"Our officials are getting bigger and bigger." Meng Lie smiled and raised his hand and patted Ah Dian's shoulder: "Do it well, Uncle Meng will ask Ah Dian to buy snacks to eat when I go back." ”

Ah nodded like pounding garlic, and immediately continued to practice with Wu Yong.

At such an hour, Chang Suining had just finished practicing his morning exercises, and when he heard that Meng Lie had returned, he directly asked people to come to the courtyard to talk.

Under the corridor, Meng Lie saluted Chang Suining: "My lord, everything went smoothly on this trip, and the people have been properly settled." ”

"Okay." Chang Suining only nodded, and didn't say more than half a word, but asked Meng Lie: "Can you eat early?" ”

Meng Lie replied truthfully: "Back to my lord, there is no yet." ”

Chang Suining smiled and said, "That's just right, let's stay and eat together." ”

Seeing that she said that, he raised his legs and walked forward, and Meng Lie responded with "yes" and respectfully followed.

Breakfast is relatively simple, and there are only two people there, so they eat without dividing the case, Meng Lie is not used to eating with his Royal Highness, but in front of Xi'er and other people, too much prevarication is different, so he can only sit down bravely.

But Xi'er's errand was snatched away-

Meng Lie frequently picks vegetables and cloth vegetables for Chang Sui Ning, and picks a lot of Chang Sui Ning's favorite food.

Because of the age difference between the two now, this scene fell in Xi'er's eyes, and thinking about the many concerns of Meng Dong's family for their own girls, Xi'er couldn't help but feel that Meng Dong's family, who had no children and no daughters, was afraid that she had awakened a belated father's love ...... that had nowhere to put it?

No, father's love is so wordless and rough, so proper and meticulous, it's more like mother's love.

Such a thought took shape in her heart, and when Xi'er looked at Meng Dong's house again, she only felt that her body burst out with dazzling maternal love.

Meng Lie also lived up to Xi'er's evaluation, and after the meal, he deliberately spoke to Xi'er alone, first asked Chang Suining about his recent diet and physical condition, and then gave detailed suggestions, these suggestions cover a wide range, and even accurate to the incense in the room, the types of flowers inserted in the vase, not only to pay attention to color matching, not to be too noisy visually, and the fragrance of flowers is also as elegant and soothing as possible......

Speaking of the back, the booklet in Xi'er's hand is about to be remembered.

In the end, Meng Lie summarized the key points, in short, although the application of goods is not luxurious, but comfort must be the first; Living matters should be as simple and neat as possible, throwing out the cumbersome whistles, and putting simplicity and practicality first, so as to leave more time for adults to rest.

Xi'er's face was full of usefulness, and she clutched the booklet in her hand: "The maid will explain and implement them one by one later!" ”

In fact, after being promoted from her own girl to the envoy of the festival, Xi'er was also quite anxious in her heart, only to feel that the previous service method was indeed not able to keep up with the footsteps of the girl, but if you talk about improvement, you can't start...... What Meng Dongjia said today can be described as her timely rain and guiding light.

Xi'er's eyes were full of admiration, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, if the Meng Dong family was a woman, how young would they be...... Where is the place for the girl to stay with her Xi'er?

However, the Meng Dongjia is so proficient in this way, which shows that they are very interested in the way of life, but why does the Meng Dongjia himself not pay attention to these at all?

Especially after coming to Jiangdu, everything in the Meng Dong family is simple, very simple and even sloppy from the inside to the outside, and there is no sense of wealth and pleasure at all.

But such a Meng Dong family gave her a very wonderful feeling...... It seems that the Meng Dong family, who appeared in the Jingshi Dengtai Building before, dressed in rich brocade clothes and treated people with a smiling face, was a businessman who was made for business, and now the Meng Dong family, who has "no worldly desires", is his original true appearance.

Today's Meng Dongjia is busy in Jiangdu every day, arranging everything around the girl, active and meticulous, although he is dressed in simple clothes and has white hair, he gives people a sense of more energy than before.

To put it in layman's terms, it is to live a very rushing life.

doesn't want to eat and wear, and it doesn't seem to want any power interests, so where does this rush come from?

In the past six months, because there have been too many intersections in taking care of Chang Suining's daily life, Xi'er and Meng Lie are also familiar with each other. Xi'er was curious at the moment, so she held the booklet and asked in a roundabout way.

Meng Lie smiled rarely, and replied: "Everyone wants differently, as long as I see the adults well, I will be fine everywhere." ”

Xi'er was stunned, and then her face suddenly appeared...... The mood of being a mother is probably like this.

After a while, Xi'er sighed in her heart, although the girl has a hard life and has no father or mother since she was a child, but so far, in an emotional sense, she can be regarded as a parent...... No, it's not just both, it's just over-quoted.

Chang Suining, who had "parents exceeding", went to the outer study first, as usual, to listen to Yao Ran and Wang Luo's official reports.

It has been more than 20 days since Chang Suining took over as the envoy of Jiangdu Jiedu, and in Huainan Province, in addition to the first three continents to respond, in the remaining Kyushu, in the past half a month, three continents have sent people to Jiangdu to congratulate the new envoy of Jiedu, although it may not be sincere, but it has finally made a statement-

Of the remaining six states, four states are still pretending to be deaf and dumb, and Shenzhou and Huangzhou are unwilling to be dumb, and there are already voices of dissatisfaction, Yao Ran relayed without emotion: "The two assassins of Shenzhou and Huangzhou said in private: You must not succumb to the little girl. ”

Chang Suining, who has always been good at discovering the advantages of others, nodded appreciatively: "Yes, although I have no brains, I have courage." ”

Yao Ran also detailed the specific situation of the six states brought back by the spies.

At this point, half of Huainan Province does not intend to obey the orders of the new Jiedu envoy, in Chang Suining's view, compared to the so-called "unyielding to mere women" that is hung up, the real root cause is still mostly due to the current turbulent situation and people's hearts.

After Yao Ran finished speaking, Chang Suining only nodded and said, "Okay, I know." ”

Luo Ze quietly glanced at Lord Thorn Shi, who was still calm, only to feel that under this calm appearance, there must have been a sharp sword ready to be unsheathed - after all, Lord Thorn Shi had said before that he would only give those people half a month, and now this deadline has arrived.

Chang Suining already had a plan in her heart, but she was not in a hurry to say anything more, she still had an important matter to discuss with the Jiangdu officials.

A few days ago, the Wa Kingdom sent people to Chang Sui Ning to present the progress of the arrest of the Wako pirates, along with seasonal products from the Wa Kingdom.

In addition, the garrison sent by Daisheng to garrison Wajima has also arrived, and Chang Suining has forced the Wa State to sue for peace, and everything is being implemented in an orderly manner.

The sea has flattened, and in three days, it will be time for the sea to open this year.

Chang Suining promised the fishermen that the sea would be open as usual this year, and the fishermen's fishing boats and nets were ready to go out to sea. Chang Suining, on the other hand, has greater ambitions and plans to put it into action.

Yesterday, Chang Suining had people notify the officials of Jiangdu to come to discuss the matter.

In the council hall, Chang Suining first listened to the officials of the audience and summarized their respective affairs, and then put forward the key points for everyone to come today.

She bluntly said to everyone that she would reopen Jiangdu Boshi.

The so-called Municipal Department of Maritime Affairs is an official office set up by Dasheng at the port of Linhai about 100 years ago, which is responsible for overseas diplomatic relations and mutual trade. There were two such city divisions in Dasheng before, one in Yangcheng Guangzhou, and the other in Yangzhou, Jiangdu.

However, due to the unstable situation at sea and the unstable foreign policy, the implementation of the city port division did not go smoothly, and after its establishment for decades, it was gradually abandoned or even completely abolished, and its existence is rarely mentioned today.

At this moment, Chang Suining suddenly said that he was going to reopen the market, and the officials immediately became noisy, and even some officials who had not been in the officialdom for a short time whispered to the people next to him uncertainly: "...... What is a City Division? What's the use? ”

Chang Suining asked Yao Ran to come forward to explain her plan in detail.

Chang Sui Ning not only intends to reopen the market, but also has the intention of reorganizing and improving its old system, and she has roughly discussed with Luo Guanlin and others these days-

In addition to diplomatic relations with foreign countries, the rebuilt city will be more useful for overseas trade routes.

The trade caravan can be divided into two routes, one is the official business, the other is the private caravan, the private caravan goes to sea to trade, through the city shipping department to issue a traffic order, the city shipping department is responsible for monitoring its fleet, and collect the corresponding shipping tax.

After hearing this, the officials couldn't help but talk about it.

"Although the Lord is now in charge of the financial taxation of Huainan Province, this matter is related to the national ......," an official reminded: "or it must be approved by the imperial court first." ”

"This is natural, I have sent a message to the master of the music." Chang Suining smiled: "Now that the sea outside Jiangdu is flat, I believe that the saint and the household department will be happy to see this." ”

If this happens, it will bring a considerable amount of financial revenue to Dasheng. In addition to finance, Chang Suining also values unknown products and new things from overseas.

Everyone talked about it for a while, and most of them thought it was feasible.

As Chang Suining said, now that Jiangdu has been pacified overseas, she fought with the Japanese army, although she showed two points of brutality, but it was indeed a good deterrent to overseas countries, so at such a time, as a person who personally pacified the sea chaos, it was most reasonable for her to come forward with this policy.

And she built a shipyard in Jiangdu last year...... Now that I think about it, it seems that I have already planned it.

Including the slaughter of the sea to show his prestige, let the Japanese state about the elimination of the sea bandits, and let the Sheng army enter the Japanese island...... In all of this, there are traces of paving the way for this matter.

This lord has been painstakingly working for a long time, so the time and place are all ready, so how can they have a reason for discord?

Although Huainan Province is not united now, but Chang Suining's decree in Jiangdu has never been unreasonable, and all the decrees proposed by her, even if the people below do not approve of it at first, they have to try one or two times.

Putting aside Chang Suining's obscenity, no one here knows that foreign trade has always been carried out smoothly, and there will inevitably be huge profits......

Thinking of the wealth and wealth that this move would bring, many officials' eyes lit up and they spoke out in favor of the matter.

So Chang Suining took the opportunity to propose that she first select a city envoy to be responsible for preparing for the rebuilding of the city's shipping department, and she planned to organize a fleet to go to sea as soon as possible, bring the goods in the silk weaving workshop and the porcelain workshop, and first explore the routes - those old routes, no one has left for a long time, and they need to be revisited to add corrections to prepare for future trade.

These follow-up matters require the involvement of the city envoys.

As soon as this statement came out, the officials recommended each other or recommended available cronies.

This is the obvious fat difference, the kind that can't be fatter anymore!

Since Chang Suining entered Jiangdu, in order to work together from top to bottom, she has never hesitated to let everyone share profits within a controllable range, and her "generosity" is written on the bright side.

But this time, Chang Suining had a slightly different idea. Or rather, she already has a candidate in mind.

Chang Suining's gaze crossed those enthusiastic officials, and looked at the person who was sitting in a very backward position and promoted the envoy of the city, and he never made a sound.

It was a very young face, wearing a prefectural robe.

Caught up! On the fourth day of the new year, I still give you a New Year's greeting!
