Meng Changqing walked in front of him with the little girl, and listened all the way.

Chu Mufeng listened to her ask, and asked how much the mule cost for a while, and asked if the mule cart was sold for a while.

"Master Meng, do you want to buy a mule?" Chu Mufeng asked.

"Don't buy it." Meng Changqing said, "I'm here, stop by and take a look." ”

"I thought you were here to buy cows."

"I want to ask about the price of cattle, and I also want to see the livestock market in Liangzhou, it seems that there are no good cattle in this place, so I will go to the government to ask." Meng Changqing planned to stop by to ask about the Yamen's appropriation.

As a result, when he arrived at the mansion, Wei Fangyun was not there.

When Li Ting heard the announcement, he quickly greeted Meng Changqing, "Lord Meng, Lord Futai has gone to Weishan County, and he won't be able to come back for a while, so you can wait for the back office." ”

"What time will you come back?" Meng Changqing asked.

"I didn't say it, but I think the adults are going to the barracks to have a look, and they won't come back soon, if you have something urgent, I'll send someone to find the adults back."

"No, it's not urgent." Meng Changqing came down with the child on the horse, "The adults in the palace are not here, who is in charge?" ”

"It depends on what you want to do." Li Ting said.

"I'd like to ask me about the appropriation."

"Lord Futai has already told Sun Tongju about this matter, you can just go to him directly." Li Ting took Meng Changqing and walked inside, "He is in the ya, I'll take you over." ”

The child quickly followed behind Meng Changqing, looking at everything around him ignorantly.

"General verdict." Li Ting stood outside and knocked on the door before going inside, "Master Meng came to ask about the appropriation of the Jianya. ”

"Master Meng is here!" Sun Xiang stood up from behind his desk, "Please come in." ”

He came to the door and greeted Meng Changqing, "The money required for the construction of the government has been prepared, if Lord Meng doesn't come, I will send someone to send it over in two days." ”

"Then I came by coincidence."

"Exactly." Sun Xiang looked through Wei Fangyun's instructions, "A total of two hundred taels." Please also understand that Liangzhou is not more expensive than anything in the capital, and the labor and bricks here are much cheaper, and two hundred taels can completely build the county government. ”

"I know that."

"One more point." Sun Xiang said, "Although it is said that two hundred taels have been approved on this article, but the foreign branch of the government has been set down earlier, and it is really impossible to move these silver taels for a while, so I will give you some every month in two months." ”

"Monthly?" I came to her to pay the monthly payment.

"Yes, I will give you fifty taels of silver today, and you can take it back to buy bricks and pay part of the wages first. When someone comes to buy seeds in April, the yamen can collect some of the money, and then give you the remaining 150 taels. ”

This is the way to give money determined by the government, not to discuss with Meng Changqing, she had to agree.

"Then I'll fetch you two now, and you can wait here for a while."

After Sun Xiang left, Li Ting came in with tea, and saw that there were not enough chairs inside, so he moved a few from other rooms, "Everyone sit and wait, the procedures for entering the bank warehouse are complicated, and Sun Tong will not be able to come out for a while." ”

"Thanks for the reminder." Meng Changqing waited for more than half an hour before Sun Xiang came out with the silver under the escort of the officials.

"It's fifty taels." Sun Xiang lifted the red cloth that was covered, revealing five large silver cakes inside, "Please also ask Master Meng to inspect it." ”

The official held a small scale in his hand and asked Meng Changqing to weigh it on the spot.

"There will be no shortage of official silver taken out by the government." Meng Changqing said this, but the movement of weighing in his hand was very smooth, and after confirming the weight, he said: "Sure enough, there will be no mistake." ”

Meng Changqing stuffed the money to Bafang, said a few more polite words to Sun Xiang, and then went around to the topic, "Sun Tongju, I want to ask you about something, how many cows do I want to buy in my county, where do I go to buy them?" ”

"Cow." Sun Xiang thought for a while, "Shangluojiang County may be able to buy good cattle, but now that spring planting is imminent, there won't be many people selling cattle, so I'll let people inquire for you." ”

"Thank you Sun Tong for sentencing, after all, you know more people in Liangzhou City than me, please take your time." Meng Changqing also emphasized, "I also bought cattle for spring planting. ”

"Then I'll send someone over and ask." Sun Tong went to the door to find the officials and asked them to go to Luojiang County immediately to inquire about who had a cattle seller.

This kind of inquiry will not yield results for a while, so Meng Changqing returned to Beishan County under the pretext that the sky was not early.

After arriving at the place, Bafang went to put the silver taels, and Meng Changqing handed over the child to the Wen family.

Wen reached out and touched the child's hair, "I've heard for a long time that this child can't speak, it's really a poor person." Since we are still going to live in Beishan County for a period of time, we must hire people, and this child will be raised by our side, and we will help you when we grow up in the future. ”

"It's fine." Meng Changqing threw the person to the Wen family and was about to leave, but was stopped by the Wen family, "I don't know what her name is." ”

Dr. Hu called her dumb.

"What's the proper name for this?" Wen squatted down and asked the child, "What's your name?" ”

The kid didn't react, just looked at Wen in a daze.

"Why don't you give her a name?" Liang Jiu proposed, "Look at her like this, even if she had a name before, now I'm afraid I'll forget it." ”

"Okay, mother, take one."

Wen said, "Since it is the child you brought back, it is natural that you should name it." Like the name of the wealth from all directions, it was given by your father. ”

"Father?" Meng Changqing was surprised, she could only understand Meng Sixing from others.

Hearing others say that he is powerful and brave, and his tactics are changeable, I thought that this person should be quite deep in the city, such a person would actually make a name for his wealth from all directions.

"You can make one for this child, too."

Meng Changqing thought for a while, "Now that the wasteland is cleared, spring planting will be done, so let's take a good omen." ”

"What's it called?"

"Full warehouse, how's it going?" Meng Changqing said, "I hope that the grain warehouse will be full when the autumn harvest comes." ”

"Okay." Wen said, "You are much better than your father. ”

"Father said it either on a whim or casually."

"You don't know him." Wen Shi talked about Meng Sixing, and looked into the distance, as if in her eyes, the appearance of that person could still be reproduced. "He just likes money, and he desperately killed the enemy on the battlefield at the beginning, just because a Yan soldier's head could be exchanged for one or two silver."

"A Yan army for a tael of silver?"

"Now there is no such regulation, that is, your father killed too many enemies, and the court couldn't afford it, so he was simply promoted and this regulation was canceled." Wen said, "He loves money very much, and he doesn't want to take out any money that goes into his pocket, even if he spends a penny on the street to buy a meat bun, he has to think about it for a long time."

One of the most expensive things in my life was to forge five swords.

People like him are waiting to be tired, fortunately, when he entered the house, he didn't care much about his family. ”
