Chapter 11: Nongxian Society (I)

Previous Chapter

When Bian Huaihai and Wei Hanshan's speeches were in full swing, on the other hand, Tao Zhihuan, who was in charge of the affairs of the Nongxian Society, made a big problem.

Due to the non-cooperation of Adjutant Xu Wen, the original declared appropriation could not be implemented and issued for a long time, and if there was no sufficient funds and food aid, the entire rural county community plan would be empty talk.

A roadside teahouse somewhere in Huiji City.

Tao Zhihuan sat helplessly on the stall on the side of the teahouse and sighed mournfully.

In obvious contrast to the surrounding people, the mouths of the people these days are all discussing tax exemption and speeches, and when talking about speeches, everyone's faces are full of yearning expressions.

Tao Zhihuan looked at the people chatting after the meal and shook his head with a wry smile, and then drank the only tea left on the table.

In fact, Tao Zhihuan didn't want to report to Zhao Lixuan about adjutant Xu Wen's stuck funds, but after thinking about it, adjutant Xu Wen was the adjutant who followed Zhao Lixuan's side, and he was Zhao Lixuan's most trusted person.

If you rush to theorize and report, I am afraid that you will end up with the possibility of a rake.

As the tea was drunk and drunk, Xiao Er of the teahouse immediately stepped forward to pour the tea full.

Tao Zhihuan nodded with a smile, and then looked at the teacup on the table, the turquoise tea reflected Tao Zhihuan's face.

"Isn't this Brother Tao?" A familiar and unfamiliar voice sounded from behind Tao Zhixuan.

Tao Zhihuan turned his head to look at the comer, the comer was wearing a plain robe, and his appearance was dignified, Tao Zhihuan took a closer look, it turned out to be Xu Changjun!

This person is Tao Zhihuan's childhood friend in the private school and the hair is small.,Although I haven't seen him for some years.,But I still recognize it at a glance.。

"Changjun!" Tao Zhihuan hurriedly got up to greet him, and beckoned the shopkeeper to hurry up and serve tea.

After composing with each other, the two sat down facing each other.

"Changjun, I don't know where I am high if I haven't seen you for a few years?" Tao Zhihuan looked at his familiar old friend and asked.

"I've been farming at home since I failed in the imperial examination." Xu Changjun took a sip of tea.

"Brother Tao hasn't been impressed for a few days, he has put on an official robe, could it be that he is holding the thigh of the rebel army?" Xu Changjun jokingly looked at Tao Zhifan's dress.

"Working under General Zhao, the sesame petty official is insignificant." Tao Zhihuan waved his hand and smiled.

"I remember Changjun, you are from Dongyang County, why did you come to Huiji City at the time of this war?" Tao Zhihua was a little puzzled.

"The elder brother in the family is also working under General Zhao, and I heard in the letter a few days ago that the elder brother has an important position in Huiji City, and he is here to take refuge today." Xu Changjun replied.

"Changjun's brother doesn't know where to go?" Tao Zhihuan's heart fluctuated faintly.

"In the General's Mansion, that is, in the county government of Huiji City, I heard that I became a big official and a deputy under General Zhao!" Xu Changjun said with a smile.

Xu Wen?! Tao Zhihuan was shocked in his heart, and then thought that this appropriation might make Xu Changjun think of a way.

Thinking of this, Tao Zhihuan immediately corrected his mentality.

"Changjun has just arrived in Huiji City, why don't you let me take you to the county office, 'It just so happens that I met General Zhao's adjutant.'" Tao Zhihuan suggested.

"That's great!" Xu Changjun nodded.

With that, the two got up and went to the county office.

After the time of a pillar of incense......

The two people who had just arrived at the gate of the county government happened to collide with Adjutant Xu Wen.

Xu Wen glanced at Tao Zhihuan and frowned slightly in his heart, and then saw Xu Changjun again.

"Changjun, I just wrote a few days ago, and I'm here today?" Xu Wen was a little surprised.

"Brother, there are frequent wars in the suburbs, and I have to hurry up." Xu Changjun said.

Xu Wen nodded when he heard this, and then pointed to Tao Zhihuan, who was standing on the side without speaking.

"Do you know Tao Zhihuan?" Xu Wen asked again.

"A friend from my youth, a classmate at a private school." Xu Changjun replied.

"Oh, let's sit down first."

Xu Wen ushered the two into the door and came to his room.

Several people sat on the coffee table without saying a word, and the food on the table was slow to move, Xu Changjun also saw that Xu Wen and Tao Zhihuan had something to do with each other, so he simply acted as the mediator in the middle.

Many times when it comes to interpersonal interactions, three people will be very happy together, but as soon as one of them who acts as a bridge is gone, then the remaining two people will have nothing to say or even sullen.

And Xu Changjun wants to be such a bridge-builder.

With the help of Xu Changjun, this dinner gradually began to have a sound.

As several people gradually drank high, many things that they could not normally hear were also spoken from each other's mouths.

"Tao Illusion.... Sir, it's not that I don't give you an appropriation, nor do I look down on you as a person.... Master, I just look down on you guys who can only talk about it! Xu Wen lay on the table and kept pouring himself wine.

Tao Zhihuan smirked, obviously drunk, but the wine glass in his hand never stopped.

"But today I can see that you Tao Zhihuan is a man! Here's a good job! Nothing else works! With that, Xu Wen took out a wine cup from under the table.

"Drink! Blow it, and I'll allocate the funds to you overnight! Xu Wen shook his head and walked up to Tao Zhihuan and filled Tao Zhihuan's wine glass.

At this time, Xu Changjun was already too drunk to fall asleep.

As soon as he heard Xu Wen say this, Tao Zhihuan had no reason not to drink.

Tao Zhihuan stood up suddenly, drank all the wine in the cup, and then raised the wine cup and drank it bitterly.

"Good! Good! Good! Xu Wen looked at Tao Zhihuan, who kept drinking, and shouted loudly.

As the situation deteriorated further, the two were even ready to rush to Zhao Lixuan's room and worship their brothers in the presence of Zhao Lixuan.

But fortunately, he was stopped by the officials of the county government, so he didn't lose this big face.

Time passed, and when Tao Zhihuan woke up again, he was already in his own home.

Tao Zhihuan didn't remember what happened last night, only that he had drunk with Xu Wen, and maybe he had drunk broken pieces.

Tao Zhihuan knew that he had made a mistake by drinking, and he didn't do anything all day yesterday, so he drank with Xu Wen.

Tao Zhihuan slapped the table hard and scolded angrily.

"Drinking is a mistake!"

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Is Mr. Tao at home?"

Tao Zhihuan hurriedly sorted out the clothes briefly and opened the door.

It turned out that a county official came to the door with a letter in his hand.

"Thank you, who gave me this letter?" Tao Zhihuan smiled and nodded.

"These are some letters from Adjutant Xu Wen to you." The official replied.

Tao Zhihuan's heart tightened, and he hurriedly opened the letter.

Really! In the letter, Xu Wen had already approved Tao Zhihuan's application for funds and food, and two soldiers were specially assigned to assist Tao Zhihuan's mission.

Tao Zhihuan slapped himself twice in a row, proving that he was not dreaming.

"What's that called?"

"Mr. Tao, what?" The official looked confused when asked.

"That's what works when you call the wine table talking!"
