Chapter 706 Tang Yue returns

The next day, somewhere by the river.

Qi Ying was leading several military soldiers to investigate.

There is a small ditch in front of me connecting a nearby dyeing workshop. At this time, some waste in the dyeing workshop is flowing into the river through the ditches.

Seeing this scene, Qi Ying shook his head, and a soldier couldn't help but say, "It's so outrageous! These people have devastated the clear water used by the people of the whole city for their own convenience, sir!"

"No need to say, everything is sealed!" Qi Ying ordered decisively.

"promise!"

At the same time, there are many places where such things happen.

Of course, one or two stores do not cause much pollution to the river, but this is the case, which will cause this problem today. Especially some restaurants, it is even more outrageous, and they poured everything into Hanoi nearby.

In a restaurant.

Because it was not dinner time, there were no guests in the building, but there were several soldiers standing.

The restaurant shopkeeper hurriedly left the counter, greeted him with a smile on his face, and kept bowing, "Oh, how can you do it, Mr. Jun."

"On the order of the superior, you will be sealed off your restaurant completely." The leader said directly.

Ah!? Hearing this, the shopkeeper suddenly became anxious and hurriedly approached the team leader: "Can Jun Ye take a step to speak?"

Seeing him, the team leader felt a little moved. After he came to the side, he didn't forget to look at the men behind him, and then coughed: "If you have something to do, just say it, don't pull it."

"Yes, yes." The shopkeeper nodded and bowed, and at the same time took out a small bag of broken silver from the cuff and stuffed it into the team leader's hand.

Seeing this, the captain's eyes lit up, but he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What does this mean?"

"Oh, Jun Ye, our small shop and small business are doing serious business, why did it be sealed? This little silver is not respected, so I should treat my brothers to a drink." The shopkeeper said in a sermon.

Upon hearing this, the team leader couldn't help but weigh the silver bag in his hand, then calmly put it in his arms, and said, "Since that's the case, I think the shopkeeper is also a person who understands the matter. So I might as well tell you that we can not seal your restaurant for the time being, but the superiors have given a dead order to the pollution of Qinghe behind you. I can remind you first. This matter cannot be stopped by anyone, so you'd better prepare early."

"Ah? This..." The shopkeeper was a little at a loss.

"Okay, let's do it for now. We will check it out again later." After the captain said that, he immediately waved his hand and left the place with his men.

In the Wuwei Mansion, two days later, the official documents from the government were also posted.

Before the notice, the people were surrounded by crowds.

Some officials were talking loudly:

"Friends! From now on, the government will expressly prohibit the throwing of miscellaneous items into the city and rivers. Once discovered, severe punishment will be made!

"In addition, in view of the pollution damage of clearing rivers, the government has decided to deal with the dirt immediately, release the dirty water, and return the clean water to the people!"

After hearing him say this, many people whispered and talked in a burst of noise.

"The government should consider good deeds for our people..."

"Good thing, great thing, I finally saw Qingshui again..."

For the people, there was nothing to say. The official raised his hand and continued to shout: "Okay, let's be quiet!"

"Now, the government also needs to recruit civil servants to deal with dirt. As for wages, five taels of silver a month, food and accommodation are in charge. Whoever you want to go, you can sign up now..."

Five taels of silver, at the price at that time, was equivalent to several thousand yuan.

This is a good income for ordinary people, and there was a commotion in the crowd immediately.

"The wages are OK..."

"Yes, and it also cares about food and accommodation. Cleaning up dirt in the city is not considered a cool job..."

Amid the discussion, a young and strong man immediately raised his hand: "I'll go!"

"Okay, register there, and start construction in two days."

“I sign up too…”

"I'll go too..."

With the raising of hands of one person and two people, they were soon rushing to the forefront.

On the other side, Tang Mansion.

At this time, Tang Yue had already rushed back without stopping by his brother's letter.

The servants of the Tang family were still the same as before, so they naturally knew him. The servants took the reins of the horse, and Tang Yue quickly walked into the mansion.

His expression was very urgent because what Tang Yu said in the letter was very serious.

After meeting in the hall, Tang Yue couldn't wait to say as soon as he came in: "Brother, what happened to the family?"

"What can happen?" Tang Yu glanced at him and said slowly: "If I didn't say this, would you come back?"

"Ah? Brother, you!" Tang Yue understood and was a little anxious.

"You sit down first." Tang Yu frowned: "You are running around outside all day long. Have you ever thought about home?"

Tang Yue didn't know how to answer, so he could only sit down first.

Tang Yu continued: "Also, my little sister is about to get married."

"What!?" Hearing this, Tang Yue couldn't sit still, "Why didn't I discuss this with me? My father is not here, I am also her brother! I should know."

"I'll discuss it with you? Where can I find you?" Tang Yu asked back angrily.

"I." Tang Yue was choked. Don't look at him being unruly, but the elder brother was his father. The ancients valued courtesy, so he respected him very much in front of his elder brother.

After caring, he quickly asked, "Who is the other party worthy of the younger sister."

Tang Yu said: "Don't worry about this. Because my brother is still here, how could I let my younger sister be wronged? The other party, Shangguan Wenruo, and the younger sister has agreed."

"What, it's him!" Tang Yue was stunned and couldn't react.

Speaking of this, Tang Yu also looked serious: "This matter was proposed by the king. It can be seen that the king attaches great importance to my Tang family, and you should understand this."

"Now, my younger sister has married Shangguan Wenruo, and she is an official in Qin State. Under the king's envy, if you are proud of your achievements, you will harm the entire Tang family."

"I am not proud of my merits." Tang Yue refuted.

Tang Yu did not argue with him and said directly: "No matter what you think, the Tang family is supported by the king's grace, and the current king is a wise ruler, so there is nothing to say."

Tang Yue became silent and his mind was changing.

Tang Yu said again: "Have you ever thought about it? When you ran to Chu State, you looked like you were against Qin, but the king still treated the Tang family well. Not only did he not make things difficult for me and my younger sister, he gave him an official position, and there was no act of threatening you with the Tang family. Isn't such a broad mind worthy of my Tang family's loyalty?"

"This..." Tang Yue didn't know what to say, but in fact, there had been great changes in his heart after Quebeidi.
