Chapter 205: The county is short of silver

Zhu Dahai became a relative at Qin Tao's house that night.

He gave Ma Yulan the grandest wedding.

When I went back the next day, I invited a real matchmaker.

There is no order from parents, but there must be a matchmaker.

Otherwise, Ma Yulan felt uneasy.

Qin Tao and Xi Shuyun went to see them several times, and when they saw that they were happy, they were relieved.

this day.

The weather was a little bad.

However, the cold winter is long gone.

Still a very comfortable day.

Lou Yulin came to Qin Tao with two servants.

Although Qin Tao didn't have a good impression of Lou Yulin, it was just that the two of them didn't tear their faces on the surface.

Set a table for the sake of the table.

Good wine and good food to entertain Louzhi County.

Now, Qin Tao's winemaking technology is becoming more and more sophisticated.

He no longer has to collect land rent, and he can make a lot of money just by buying wine.

I don't know what Lou Yulin is doing today!

It's just that Qin Tao also knows very well in his heart that Lou Yulin is the kind of person who is very careful in doing things, and if he is fine, he will definitely not come over in person.

Today, he Lou Yulin is here, then there must be something.

And it's not a trivial matter.

It must be an earth-shattering event.

It may be too much to say that it is earth-shattering, but Qin Tao can just guess it, it must not be a trivial matter.

For trivial things, Lou Yulin will not come over in person.

Last time, I begged him to do something, and I wanted him to open a customs clearance paperwork, and I saw that it was difficult for him.

I know it's not easy to find him.

Qin Tao also deliberately did not have too close contact with him.

is different from the previous magistrate Zheng Lun.

Although Zheng Lun also has his own careful thoughts, he has never been bad in major matters, and he also believes in him Qin Tao.

It's not as good as this Lou Yulin now.

He always thinks about himself first, and then Qin Tao.

"Here, let's have a drink."

Lou Yulin raised his glass.

Qin Tao didn't push back, he said, "Let's go." ”

The two men touched their glasses.

It's all in one drink.

"Qin Tao, I sent you a message, saying that Elder Zhu and Princesses of Yunyang from Jingdong City are coming, haven't they arrived yet?" Lou Yulin asked.

Qin Tao was in a trance.

thought that Lou Yulin was here for this matter.

He thought about it.

No way!

It's simply impossible!

Because, once Zhu Wenzheng and Princess Yunyang come, Lou Yulin will not sit back and wait for news, he will come over as soon as possible to find an opportunity to drill the camp.

can win the favor of the princess and Zhu Wenzheng, and the future will be bright.

Qin Tao is well aware of this.

Those old oilmen who are mixed with officialdom, they are all like this.

And they are all middle and high-hand.

Sycophants don't show a lot of horses' feet.

Cowhide technology.

It is impossible to admire.

"It's not there yet." Qin Tao replied, and then said: "However, it should be fast, and there should be no major incidents on the road, otherwise we will also receive news." ”

"Lord Zhixian, you may not know that Zhu Lao is a person who does not smile, but Princess Yunyang is different, she finally went out of the palace once, and saw that everything outside was fresh, so it is normal to have a lot of fun on the road and delay for a while."

"My lord, you didn't come today just to ask me for a drink, and then ask about Zhu Lao, right?"

In the end, Qin Tao still didn't forget to get down to business.

Lou Yulin was slightly stunned.

He didn't expect Qin Tao's reaction ability to be so fast.

He smiled, though.

"Qin Tao, dealing with smart people like you is just making people happy." Lou Yulin said.

Qin Tao snorted coldly in his heart.

"Sure enough, I guessed it myself."

"This old fox just has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace."

"You want to see what he wants to do?"

These are all Qin Tao's inner words, of course, he will not say them directly.

Qin Tao can be regarded as giving Lou Yulin enough face.

If you don't give him face, you won't invite him to drink at all.

Wine is not valuable, because Qin Tao can make wine himself, but Qin Tao's time is valuable.

Don't want to waste time on people who don't care.

"My lord, if you have something, just say it, do you need my help?" Qin Tao asked.

Lou Yulin took a deep breath, and then said a little unnaturally: "There is indeed a small matter, which is very difficult for the official now, and the official can't find a more suitable person to help me, so I came to you." ”

One bite at a time.

Qin Tao just couldn't get used to it.

Since you are here to ask for someone, you have to look like you are begging for someone, play an official tone, and put on a high-minded face.

Where is this begging for someone!

Qin Tao was full of slander.

"Lord Lou, if you have something, just say it." Qin Tao did not embarrass Lou Yulin.

As long as he doesn't tear his face, Qin Tao doesn't bother to meet him in general.

"Come on, let's have another drink."

As he spoke, Lou Yulin raised his glass again.

Qin Tao shook his head and said, "I can't drink anymore, wine is a good thing, but drinking too much will make a mistake!" My lord, if we really want to get drunk and rest, then we might as well talk about business first, and after that, we will drink another 300 cups. ”

Lou Yulin was also observing Qin Tao.

After dealing with Qin Tao a few times, Lou Yulin found that Qin Tao was a man with a bottom line.

As long as it doesn't touch Qin Tao's bottom line, then Qin Tao won't come nonsense.

Mutual understanding.

Lou Yulin put down the wine glass he raised, and he said, "Qin Tao, you also know that this official, the magistrate of the county, has not as many workers as you have in a year. ”

"It's true." Qin Tao did not deny it.

He paid wages to the workers of the distillery and the firearms factory, and the standard was to be on par with the magistrate.

"So it's embarrassing to say that this official is very embarrassing, if it weren't for ten years of hard work, I wouldn't be an official." That's what Lou Yulin said.

Qin Tao could see that Lou Yulin was not.

"My lord, if my guess is correct, you have come to me to borrow money, right?" Qin Tao went straight in.

Lou Yulin had to admire Qin Tao.

Since Qin Tao had guessed it, Lou Yulin didn't hide it, he said directly: "After a year, I have lived a clanging official life, and now I can't live at home." ”

"That's a good thing." Qin Tao said.

Lou Yulin thought that Qin Tao was laughing at himself, and his face was somewhat embarrassed.

"A good thing?" Lou Yulin looked at Qin Tao and asked, "Do you see that this official has no silver, are you very happy?" ”

"Yes!" Qin Tao smiled and nodded.

Lou Yulin's face was a little unbearable.

He asked Qin Tao what he meant by this?

Qin Tao raised his glass, did not respect Lou Yulin, but drank a glass himself.

Putting down the wine glass, Qin Tao said: "My lord, you don't have any silver, which shows that you are a good official who is not greedy!" Those officials who like to be greedy for silver, how many have you seen who are short of silver? ”

"My lord, you are a clean official, of course this is a good thing."

Lou Yulin reacted and immediately laughed.

"Qin Tao, you're right, this official has never been greedy for silver, but now he is short of silver." Lou Yulin raised his glass.
