Volume 1 Chapter 46 Hu Xiancheng
"Every year, the county gives the post station a total of three thousand three hundred and eighty-seven taels of silver, seven cents and seven cents, three cents, five cents, five and five micro!"
"One thousand six hundred and thirteen taels of one cent, seven cents, two cents, five hundreds, and six micros, is silver for food."
"And these more than 1,000 taels are basically used as banquet money now, and the post station itself hardly fires!"
Qian Jizu talked about the business scriptures, it was really a set, and he didn't need to look at the account book at all, and he casually quoted six decimal places of silver money.
It should be said or not, some people are born into business and are very sensitive to numbers.
A liberal arts student like Xu He can only admire.
"Uncle Qian, in previous years, this matter was handled by your restaurant, how did you operate it?" Xu He got straight to the point.
Qian Jizu didn't dare to put his elders in front of Xu He for a long time.
Hearing Xu He's question, he hurriedly whispered: "Take the path of Hu Xiancheng!" ”
When Xu He heard this, he immediately thought of the chubby, good-talking guy in his mind.
"What? Hu Xiancheng, what happened this year? ”
Qian Jizu sighed and said: "That's not it, it's just that this time the horse owner Bo Heng intervened and handed over the words to Li County, Li County's order just came, and he didn't know the habits accumulated in previous years, so he let the surnamed Ma take advantage of the loophole!" ”
It's a bit difficult to do, one is the second-in-command in the county, and the other is the third-in-command in the county, fortunately, I didn't go directly to the county order Li just now.
In this way, not only did he offend Master Ma, but Hu Xiancheng would also feel that he had been bypassed and was unhappy in his heart.
"It's a bit tricky!" Xu He smashed it, smashed it, and smashed it.
Qian Jizu thought he was Naqiao, and complained with a sad face: "Xiaohe, don't you know how difficult it is to do business now......
Xu He interrupted him with a "huh": "But I recently heard that [Gao Mian Shou Pengshu] is selling very well!" As soon as your meal arrives, there is an endless stream of guests! ”
“……”
Xu He smiled and didn't tease him again: "That's it, I can't pack a ticket for what is going on, I'll go to the county first, and then talk about it!" ”
The father and son of the Qian family were disappointed when they saw that he was not looking for Li County's order.
However, since he is begging someone to do something, it is naturally not good to find faults, Qian Jizu painfully took out more than 20 pieces of ten coins and handed them to Xu He: "It's not good to come to the door empty-handed, Xiaohe, you take this money to buy some fruits and snacks!" ”
Xu He smiled, didn't take the money, but took out a bamboo tube and said: "Hu Xiancheng, I was just going to visit, I brought some gifts with me when I went out, so I don't have to buy them again!" ”
As soon as Qian Yu saw the bamboo tube, he was immediately surprised: "Is it white sugar?" ”
Xu He nodded, opened the stopper and showed it to the master and son, Qian Jizu's eyes were about to pop out, and the white sugar in the bamboo tube was pressed to a porcelain firm, and it was two catties away.
This bamboo tube is directly worth four or five taels of silver.
It was only then that he saw the white sugar of Xu He's family with his own eyes.
"It turns out that this kid's family can really make sugar!"
Xu He didn't wait for Qian Jizu to come back to his senses, he stuffed the bamboo tube and turned around and walked out of Huibin Building.
In fact, today he brought a total of three bamboo tubes of sugar, and the teacher must have expressed his affection, and the teacher couldn't pull it down.
When he arrived at the county office, the porter was naturally very polite when he saw him, a newly accepted student of the county, but unfortunately, Li County Ling and Xie Kun went out of the city today, and the porter didn't know when they would come back.
So Xu He put down his things and inquired about the news of Hu Xiancheng.
Coincidentally, Hu Xiancheng happened to be in the West Flower Hall to discuss official business with his subordinates.
After Xu He arrived at the West Flower Hall, sure enough, Hu Xiancheng was explaining things to Zhudian, and after seeing Xu He, he nodded with a smile and motioned for Xu He to sit down.
After a while, Ji Dian retreated, and Hu Xiancheng smiled: "Xiao Shigong has been in good health recently? ”
Xu He heard him ask Xu Song first, and he knew that this person was an old oilman in officialdom.
In addition to assisting the county order in handling official duties, the county official is also the specific executor of many affairs of the county government.
Most of the county orders are non-commissioned officers, pay attention to decency, and do not deal with people of all ethnic groups in various townships and ethnic groups.
But the county is different, most of them are raised and engongs are removed from the official position, so they are not born to be dragged by non-commissioned officers, they attach great importance to building a good relationship with the gentry in the county, otherwise no matter how small the order is, no one will carry it out.
Hu Xiancheng didn't ask anything else, he asked Xu Song first, this is his skill as an official.
Of course, this also shows that this white and chubby county adult is a good person, and there is no need to go around in circles to talk to him.
Xu He smiled: "Uncle's health is okay!" Lord Xie Xiancheng cares. ”
After speaking, he handed the bamboo tube in his hand to Hu Xiancheng with both hands: "Lord Hu has returned to protect him several times, and the students have remembered it in their hearts, and the uncle has taught me many times, and I want to know how to repay the kindness, and I happen to have some food in my hand, send some to the adults, and please smile!" ”
Hu Xiancheng thought that Xu He had bought a tube of wine, and took it with a smile.
Who knew that after starting it, he felt that the weight was wrong, and when he opened the stopper, he found that it was a bamboo tube full of sugar.
"This ......" Hu Xiancheng was a little surprised.
This bamboo tube looks inconspicuous from the outside, but the sugar is a precious thing, and this tube will sell for about five taels of silver outside.
The officials of the Great Wei Dynasty have very few Yulu, and Xu He's small tube of white sugar can probably be worth two months of Yulu in Shangxian County.
Of course, the officials of the Great Wei Dynasty did not live on Yulu, they really had to rely on Yulu to support the family, and if they engaged in some interpersonal entertainment, they would starve to death.
But even so, Hu Xiancheng was still surprised by Xu He's handwriting: "What are you?" ”
Xu He knew that if he said something high-sounding at this time, it would be looked down upon, so he generously admitted: "Actually, the student still has something to inquire about from Master Hu!" ”
Sure enough, Hu Xiancheng saw that Xu He didn't talk nonsense about gifts, and felt that he was quite real, so he put the bamboo tube aside with a smile and asked, "What's the matter with you, wouldn't it be better to ask the county lord about it?" He's your teacher! ”
Xu He has been mixed in the system, and when he met Hu Xiancheng just now, of course he knew to avoid pitfalls: "The teacher is new here, and he still needs to rely on important people in the county, instead of taking a detour, it is better to come to you directly!" ”
Hu Xiancheng laughed: "Say, what's the matter?" ”
So Xu He told Qian Jizu's family.
Hu Xiancheng sighed when he heard this and said: "Lao Qian didn't come by himself, this is because he has an opinion on me!" ”
How could Xu He let him misunderstand, so he smiled and said: "My lord misunderstood, in fact, the Qian family is afraid of finding you again and making it difficult for you, so I know that I often go in and out of the county office, so I ask students to come to you to ask about the situation!" ”
Hu Xiancheng nodded, frowned, and said, "The money for the land of the post station is indeed paid by me!" Over the years, I have been doing a good job as the money shopkeeper, and I don't want to change people, but ......"
