Chapter 146 White Picking

The girl was born in a wealthy family. She had seen the world and did not seem too nervous when facing Chen Xi. She said: "The girl was originally the eldest daughter of the Song family in Nanchang. Six years ago, her family was involved in a murder lawsuit. Several of her fathers were charged and her property was confiscated, causing the family to fall."

"The Zhuo family was originally a Song family in-law. After the Song family fell into trouble, the Zhuo family rescued my father and several younger brothers and sisters from prison. Later, they paid money to help the Song family restore their lives and had great kindness to the Song family. The girl in the family happened to be sixteen this year. In order to repay the Zhuo family's kindness, my father personally sent me to the Zhuo family, and Mr. Zhuo was the concubine..."

"Just before the church, for some reason, it was said that a high-ranking official was coming to Jiangxi, so the matter was postponed. A few days later, he said that he would send the civilian girl to the high-ranking official, and then he lost his news. Until today, the manager of the mansion asked the civilian girl to dress up and then come out to meet the guests, and happened to meet the adult..."

Only then did Chen Xi realize that the Zhuo family had prepared for him. Before others arrived in Nanchang, the beauty had prepared for him.

Chen Xi pondered a little and asked, "What Master Zhuo said about Zhuo Chengming, the head of the Zhuo family outside?"

The girl shook her head: "No. It's the brother of the Zhuo family... Before, Mr. Zhuo was seriously ill and said he wanted to take a concubine to celebrate. Somehow, several fortune tellers said that my horoscope was the most consistent. My father got the news and sent me to Zhuo's mansion without saying a word!"

Chen Xi nodded to express his understanding.

Zhuo Chengming outside is already in his fifties, and this woman was originally planning to be a concubine for Zhuo Chengming's sick brother... He finally knew why the Song girl was so afraid of him refusing "beautiful intentions", because she was originally treated as a gift by the family and used her lifelong happiness to exchange for the rise of the Song family again, and she still married an old man who could be a grandfather as a concubine. How could she be willing to do so?

On the other hand, Chen Xi, although he is of high position and powerful, looks unattainable, in the mind of a girl, she will not talk about her youth, but she is still handsome and looks like a dragon and phoenix among people. Compared with the two, it is like a difference between the two. A woman does not ask for any position around him, but wants to gain a place to live.

However, let Chen Xi accept a woman he met for the first time. Although this woman is extremely beautiful and looks like Liu Tianxian in later generations, it always makes him feel awkward. Chen Xi said: "I don't easily accept other people's gifts... Do you remember what Zhuo's instructions to you? Since he asked you to pinch your waist and legs, what are you waiting for? Try your skills first!"

The girl is a lady from a wealthy family. Even though her family is in a poor state, she has always been regarded as a rare talent since childhood. She is carefully trained to chess, calligraphy and painting at home.

Later, she was sent to Zhuo's house, and she still had a maid and an old mother to serve her. She had tender skin and had never done any heavy work. Now she was asked to serve men, but she didn't understand the trick, so she could only do things according to Chen Xi's instructions. After all, if she couldn't do it well, she would be "returned". The final outcome was to be a concubine for an old man who was sick, and maybe she would have to be widowed one day.

Chen Xi saw the girl wide-eyed and didn't know what to do. She frowned slightly, pointed to the row of chairs against the wall, and said, "Car come over and beat my legs well, and try to be as gentle as possible. I worked hard last night and didn't fall asleep until dawn. Now I'm tired and just take a break. Do your work well and don't disturb me from Qingmeng!"

In this crisis-ridden Nanchang Mansion, in the house of the largest local snake family that once released news to murder him, Chen Xi enjoyed the gentle service of the beauty, while lying with his arms crossed his head, lying on his back and closed his eyes to rest.

Chen Xi seemed very comfortable. The girl beat her legs a few times and wanted to ask Chen Xi for strength with her eyes, she found that the person involved had fallen asleep and snoreeds slightly from her breath.

A folk woman didn't understand what the young official was, and how could he fall asleep so easily, muttering in her heart: "Is he... really that sleepy?"

Chen Xi never seemed to have been sleeping so steadily. At this time, he didn't have to think about anything. He simply came to the Zhuo family to collect debts, get the money, and pick up a beauty for free... This deal is not a loss!

As for Jiangxi salt and tea franchise, they can be left to quell the local rebellion in Huguang before resolving it. What he is most concerned about now is the exploration and mining rights of coal mines and copper mines. He has obtained it through the Jiangxi Provincial Government Office. The next step is to let Huiniang's business open a few more mines locally and make use of all the resources that can be used.

After about half an hour, Chen Xi opened his eyes and when he completely regained his consciousness, he felt his legs numb. Chen Xi moved a little, and felt a sharp pain in his legs. The girl stood up in shock, and the eyes of Chen Xi were a little scared.

Perhaps it was because she felt that she was abandoned by her parents and relatives, and the future was dark, and it seemed that anyone could hurt her.

"hiss……"

Chen Xi's mouth was filled with pain, and he couldn't help complaining, "I said to Miss Song, can you not be so practical in doing things? If you ask you to pinch your waist and beat your legs, it's fine if you beat your legs alone. At least you beat your legs in a different way. If you knock one leg hard, do you think my official's bones are hard and want to loosen your bones for me?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, then her face rose and realized that she had done something wrong again. She was kept in the boudoir since she was a child, and she had never seen the world, and she didn't know what massage was. She didn't expect that she would have so many tricks just by simply serving people.

Just at this moment, someone knocked on the door.

Zhuo Chengming's voice came from outside the door: "Mr. Shen, the eight thousand guan prepared for you have been counted. I wonder how long you... need to rest? General Wang is already asking..."

Chen Xi moved his muscles and stood up. He knew that if Wang He hadn't thought something had happened to him in the backyard, he put a lot of pressure on Zhuo Chengming, Zhuo Chengming would not have the courage to disturb his "good thing".

Chen Xi first stretched his waist, then bent down to tidy up his clothes, and then Shi Shiran walked out of the wing room in vain. Not only Zhuo Chengming was waiting outside, but Wang He looked anxious and almost broke into the door.

Chen Xi was dressed neatly, and he couldn't tell what had happened before. Wang He wanted to go up to ask, but he didn't have the courage. However, from the corner of his eyes, he saw a woman behind Chen Xi.

Chen Xi looked calm and walked to the Yuemen at the intersection of the front and back yards, and said with a smile: "I am indeed a little tired. I slept unknowingly. Zhuo Dangjia, thank you for your kind hospitality... General Wang, can you count the amount of silver and money clearly?"

Wang He quickly said, "Sir, the number has been calculated clearly... Eight thousand guan, only a lot, I wonder what sir has to give?"

The box containing silver coins was placed in the front yard, and went up to Chenxi. I opened a few boxes and saw it. It was full of copper coins. I estimated the quantity slightly. One box was about one hundred coins, and there were a total of forty-five ones here. There were boxes containing silver. There was really no problem with the quantity.

In this era, as the voyage had just begun, silver from South America and Europe had not yet poured into the Ming Dynasty, and copper coins were mainly circulated in the world.

Chen Xi nodded and said, "Since the silver is almost complete, I won't keep much of it. Zhuo, didn't you say you wanted to send me a maid? I will take it away now. If you don't have to go there..."

"Um!?"

Zhuo Chengming didn't expect Chen Xi to be so direct. He glanced at Wang He and exchanged his eyes inadvertently... After all, Zhuo Chengming gave gifts when Wang He took office, and the two sides were considered "old friendship". At this moment, Zhuo Chengming wanted to know why Chen Xi accepted the gifts so readily, but Wang He himself was dizzy and could not give any answers at all.

Under Shen Xi's urging, the former Song girl was sent out. When the man arrived in front of Chen Xi, there were several maids and mothers behind her. They would send them to the governor's yamen in Chen Xi, and there were some fine and soft clothes, all of which were prepared for the Song girl.

Chen Xi raised his hand: "Go on the carriage first, we should go to the next house to accept donations!"

Wang He probably understood that Chen Xi said "giving donations" was actually no different from the door-to-door robbery. He could get money when he opened his mouth, and even a beauties gave it to him. Such a good thing is really not easy to enjoy.

The group left the Zhuo family. The officers and soldiers on the streets outside were in a neat lineup, one and two looked energetic.

There is nothing more pleasant than robbing Chen Xi from the money, and there is no such thing as winning money when he returns. At this time, even if he only gives Chen Xi a face, they all try to show their fiercest side. At first glance, they really have a bit of momentum.

The soldiers were moving boxes, and Chen Xi was not going to ride a horse, so he followed the little girl of Song to get on the carriage. Before getting on the carriage, he reminded Wang He: "General Wang, where is the next family going? You have to settle down. I will get on the carriage and rest. It is not too late to call me again when I get there!"

Seeing this situation, Wang He was secretly surprised... But he didn't bother to think about whether it was appropriate for Chen Xi to do this. As long as Chen Xi led his troops to the battle and gave him the opportunity to make achievements, his goal would have been achieved. As for how Chen Xi used to raise military expenses and what kind of benefits of wealth and sex, it had nothing to do with him.

Wang He thought to himself: "If I care about women, I just ask the Zhuo family for it, and they dare not give it to me. What is Lord Shen's doing? I'd better tie the box up and send someone to send the first batch of harvests back, and then go to the next house to ask for it..."
