Chapter 16: Thank you, Lord Xu

"We can have today's moisturizing days, thank you to Chong County for the county order, Lord Xu!"

Qin Xiao was stunned.

It's a good day here, maybe Mo has something to do with it?

"Big brother, what do you say?"

The old man didn't answer immediately, looked at him and smiled: "Do you have time, I'll take you around?" ”

The old man's life is too comfortable now, and he can't wait to find someone to show off and express his feelings.

It's rare to meet an outsider, so don't hurry.

Qin Xiao nodded and followed around with doubts.

The old man took them to the workshop area.

The old man introduced the situation of the workshop to Qin Xiao.

"See, the workshop in our village has everything."

"Sugar, dried fruits, cloth, shoes, leather, ......"

"You see, the iron workshop is mine. The quality of the smelted iron is good, and the government uses it, and the whole foreign clan does not dare to step aside. ”

Qin Xiao looked at everything in front of him and thought about it.

"Big brother, such a huge scale can't appear in a short period of time, right?"

"How did you invest in the first place, and where did you get the money?"

According to Qin Xiao's thoughts, these initial investments are huge, and they are often made possible with the strong support of the imperial court.

The old man looked grateful: "So, thank you Lord Xu!" ”

"Two years ago, Lord Xu took a stake in the workshop."

"Some of the goods belonged to Lord Xu and were sent to Chong County for sale."

Qin Xiao couldn't help but exclaim, and once again added points to Xu Mo's skills.

Xu Mo, this kid, has finally done a rare good deed for the benefit of the country and the people.

"Your village has a lot of income in a year!"

The old man proudly stretched out a slap: "The crops planted, plus the business, each family's income is at least this amount." ”

"Fifty taels!"

Qin Xiao nodded in admiration.

With such a high income, farmers are quite good in the world.

While Qin Xiao was looking high for them, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, I heard you talk about investing in shares just now, what does this mean?" ”

The old man happily explained: "At the beginning, we didn't have any money, where did we open so many workshops? ”

"It was Lord Xu who took out a lot of silver, called a shareholding, and only then did he have the scale of the current workshop."

"The money earned by the workshop stipulates that Lord Xu will share the proportion of shares every year."

Qin Xiao immediately understood the meaning of the shares.

However, he soon sensed that something was wrong.

"You mean, that Xu Mo only invested money once, and every year from then on, he had to take some of the income from the workshop?"

Qin Xiao always felt that Xu Mo had taken a big advantage.

As Qin Xiao expected, the next words of the old man made him almost vomit out a mouthful of old blood.

The old man nodded: "Every year, Lord Xu, almost from the income of the workshop, it is divided into thirty or forty thousand taels." ”

"Huh?!"

"Thirty or forty thousand taels of silver?"

Qin Xiao was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Damn the big corrupt official Xu Mo.

Even the remote villages outside the city can't escape the clutches of his greed for money?!

It's shameless to the extreme!

Qin Xiao now understands that the people of Chong County say that Xu Mo is a big corrupt official.

That's not false at all.

A little money can't get into Xu Mo's eyes.

If you want to rectify, at least it is a start!

Qin Xiao didn't want to hold his breath more.

I felt that Xu Mo still had a conscience and helped the villagers here.

For a long time, he was for money, and he was everywhere.

But it's also very reasonable, Xu Mo even dares to sell officials.

What else would he not dare?

Qin Xiao held back his anger: "Aren't you distressed that you gave Xu Mo so much silver for nothing in a year?" ”

The old man shook his head and laughed: "How come! ”

Qin Xiao asked depressedly, "Why?" ”

The old man said: "We are responsible for doing things and doing our work, and we don't have to worry about many troublesome things." How nice that is. ”

"How do you sell the finished goods, and where do you sell them? What kind of quality can make something? are all in charge of Lord Xu's subordinates. ”

"In the beginning, there were also merchants who came here to buy, and they tried desperately to lower the price."

"In the end, we sold the goods, but after we did the math, we found that we didn't make any money at all."

"It's different now."

The old man's face was not only grateful but also grateful: "According to the regulations set by Lord Xu, the purchase price here is thirty percent higher than that of other places." Say it's our quality is good enough. ”

"Moreover, when you get the goods, you have to pay a sum of money first, and within a month, you must pay all the money, otherwise you will not cooperate with you."

"Thanks to Lord Xu, we have a good life."

Qin Xiao was completely speechless.

There's no reason to even be angry.

After all, to be able to live such a good life for the common people, Xu Mo is only greedy for thirty or forty thousand taels a year, which doesn't seem too much?!

Qin Xiao could only sigh deeply.

He couldn't help but ask: "Xu Mo is so blatantly greedy for silver, he is not afraid that the matter will be exposed, and if he stabs His Majesty the court, he will kill his head?" ”

The old man didn't think about it, but shook his head: "Why should Lord Xu be killed?" Lord Xu is greedy, but he is still a good official. ”

"People have also spent money and invested in shares! If the emperor really cut Lord Xu because of this. Don't look at me as old, I have to go to Beijing to avenge many people's grievances. ”

"Moreover, there are more than 100 households in our village, and they must write a blood letter and sue the emperor!"

Hearing such unmistakable words.

Let Qin Xiao, including the group, look at each other.

If it weren't for what they had seen with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed what was happening in front of them.

Never, no one dared to be so greedy as Xu Mo.

Not only dare to be greedy.

It also makes people feel that he is greedy, so it makes sense and deserves it.

If the matter is revealed, the person who was greedy for the money by him will desperately intercede for him.

Such a terrifying cohesion.

This is what the people want!

What I have seen and heard along the way.

Qin Xiao understood that Xu Mo had an irreplaceable position in the minds of the people of Yunzhou.

Seeing that Yunzhou was thriving, and the alien race had no idea of being ready to move, Qin Xiao had a big concern for this trip.

More than 20 days later, Qin Xiao returned to the capital.

……

On the Golden Luang Palace.

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

Qin Xiao was wearing a dragon robe, sitting on the throne with a majestic face, and glanced at the officials below.

In the court, now he still follows Qin Xiao to fight the world.

But after nearly a decade of tempering, the situation has gradually become clearer.

After Qin Xiao established the Great Zhou Dynasty, Wenchen gradually occupied the main position.

The most high-profile Wenchen now is the governor of politics, that is, the deputy prime minister, Chen Yong.

From the beginning of Qin Xiao's army, Chen Yong followed the service on the left and right.

This person can be said to be the best candidate for the prime minister that Qin Xiao is about to appoint.

And Chen Yong and his henchmen had been inquiring about the results of Qin Xiao's micro-service patrol in many ways.
