Bang!

The bamboo slip smashed on the wooden table.

Cao Xiu was so shocked that she jumped up directly.

"Okay, you Cao Xiu!"

Qin Shi Huang and Wang Jian stood in front of them.

All of them were furious.

Especially Wang Qian, his teeth are about to be crushed. He worked hard for the Qin State to fight hard, and when he attacked Chu, he defiled himself to dispel the emperor's doubts, and finally earned back the glory and wealth of the Pinyang Wang family.

What did Cao Xiu do?

Eat and drink to your heart's content, and lie down on a chaise longue.

Don't do anything, make money every day!

This is just the tip of the iceberg, who knows how many side hustles Cao Xiu has secretly done. He is really comfortable as the pavilion chief, and he earns much more than the three princes and nine kings.

The status of the merchants of the Qin State is definitely the lowest, but there are also high. For example, for Qin Shi Huang's cattle and horses, Qin Shi Huang ordered the emperor to be a king, and invited the ministers to the court. Or the Ba widow Qing who died of illness last year, Qin Shi Huang ordered her to resist ten thousand times, and was buried in Xianyang and built Huaiqing Terrace.

Whether the status is high or not depends on how much money you have.

If it is useful to the state, then the status must be high.

As for Cao Xiu?

He is so much more refreshing than the widow of Urun!

Wulu herds cattle and horses all year round, and is exposed to the wind and sun. The widow Qing arranged for people to transport Dansha, but the road in Shu was quite difficult to walk, and she would fall off the cliff and die if she was not careful.

Wang Jian is not red-eyed, but unwilling. No matter how much Cao Xiu earns, it's useless, he is just a small pavilion chief after all. As far as Cao Xiu did these things, it is never an exaggeration to raid the house.

"Huh? Are you two settled? ”

"Of course!"

"Yes, it's fast."

Qin Shi Huang's face was cold, and he said angrily: "If you don't count, I don't know that you Cao Xiu is so capable." Relying on this private salt, you can make money every day! ”

"It's easy to say, but it's so-so."

"I didn't praise you!"

"That's?"

"Do you earn so much worthy of your conscience?"

"Damn...... So that's what happened? Cao Xiu suddenly looked helpless, "Have you ever made a deal?" ”

"No ......"

"Come here, I'll tell you. To do business, you must first win over the powerful and dredge up the relationship, and they nod your head to make this transaction. After getting the money, the old rule is divided into three-sevens. ”

"How can it be seventy percent?"

"Seventy percent is someone else's, and thirty percent is good!"

"Aren't you kneeling for food?"

"What do you think?"

Cao Xiuchang sighed, "You see how much I earn, but in fact, I spend more." I won't mention the dredging relationship, and the cost of this is also very high. Think of firewood, coal, and transportation labor used to cook salt...... It's all money. I worked hard for a year, and I earned my hard money. ”

Qin Shi Huang's eyebrows were almost twisted together, purely disgusted by Cao Xiu's words. If someone else had said it, he might have believed it. Cao Xiu obviously didn't do anything, and he was embarrassed to say that he worked hard. Those soldiers who fought for the Qin State and died on the battlefield are really hard!

You should have held a three-foot wooden slip to govern the place, but you were busy making wine, making salt, and fishing for oil and water, how can you be embarrassed to say that it is hard?

"You...... You ......"

The dragon slayer will eventually become an evil dragon!

Cao Xiu scolded herself silently.

In the previous life, some actors said on the show that although they earned a lot, they were also very hard, but this actor didn't have any acting skills and works. Cao Xiu, who was farming, couldn't wait to give them two mouthfuls to see if they were still crazy.

"Brother Yi, can you take a look at this account?"

"Good!"

Wang Ling came immediately.

He also has a scroll of bamboo slips in his hand, which he counts.

The two bamboo slips verified each other, and then nodded incessantly.

"Xiu'er, you've really picked up a treasure!" Wang Ling said with emotion: "This account is fast and accurate, and there is no mistake. On the contrary, the old man, who has been working for more than ten years, actually missed two items. ”

"That's nature!"

Qin Shi Huang spoke with great confidence.

He has to review 120 catties of bamboo slips every day, which is not a joke. Everything in the world is determined by him, day and night, and there is no rest. He calculates all the major affairs of the country accurately, how can it be difficult to get him in this small account?

Wang Ling looked at the immature child in front of him, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.

"It's better to worship Naigong as your father."

"Bold!"

"Presumptuous!"

“？？？”

Cao Xiu hurriedly got up with a smile, "Brother Yi doesn't bring this, I finally picked up two malleable talents, you can't dig into my corner." ”

"Hahaha!"

Wang Ling laughed heartily.

"Since the accounts are correct, Naxiu will go back first. In a few days, there are distinguished guests coming, and the show has to go back to prepare first, and I hope that the righteous brother will forgive me. ”

"Don't get in the way, remember to bring wine next time."

"Ahem, okay!"

Cao Xiu smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Who are you talking about?"

"You don't know."

"Is it a county magistrate?"

"It's not."

"What kind of guest is that?"

"It's not big, but it's not small."

“……”

Qin Shi Huang was speechless for a while.

Actually, he was still in a hurry.

He was not in a hurry to return to Xianyang, he liked the beautiful scenery there quite much after climbing Langya Mountain, so he planned to stay for three months before leaving. During this period, 30,000 Qianshou households were also moved to Langyatai, and they were exempted from paying taxes for 12 years.

Fortunately, the dragon boat he was riding in was overturned by the waves. When he woke up, he was rejuvenated and had no identity. He wanted to get in touch with Li Si and them now, so as not to cause chaos. If the news of his disappearance comes out, those remnants of the Six Nations, who are already restless, will definitely make a move!

Lis, lazy......

……

……

Three days later.

A horse-drawn carriage drove to the Surabaya Pavilion.

Along the road attracted a lot of attention, this year a horse is worth 5,000 yuan, and an adult horse is worth more than 10,000 yuan, the key is that even if you have money, you can't buy a good horse. As the saying goes, those who have merit are honored, and those who are not meritorious are rich and have nothing to do. If the merchant has no great merit, then he will only be equipped with a short-legged horse.

In front of me was a bantam horse.

The back of the horse's buttocks was also marked with a soldering iron.

The owner of this horse is apparently Mingjia.

The carriage was very simple, and the space was not large, only for two people. On the left side, he has a beard and a gray cloth coat. The one on the right side is extremely handsome, with a jade pendant hanging from his waist, and his gestures are all with an extraordinary temperament.

Qin Jia's face was a little flattering.

This is an amazing person in front of him.

Originally, he planned to come to Pei County alone, but he never thought that this person would come to discuss major matters. After hearing about his relationship with Cao Xiu, they immediately hit it off.

Coincidentally, the old man also knows Cao Xiu!

"Zhao Jun, what do you think of Cao Xiu?"

"He's not easy! Over the years, he has been dormant in Pei County, and he seems to be just a small official of the Qin State, but in fact, he has done a lot of things in secret. Thinking that I was chased and killed by the Qin army, it was he who sent someone to save Naigong's life. ”

Zhao Xie opened the curtain and looked at the scenery along the road.

Three years ago, he was hunted down to Pei County.

When I thought I was going to die, it was Cao Xiu who helped. So that he was able to escape the pursuit of the Qin army and successfully returned to Julu Xindu County!

This kindness, he is unforgettable!
