Even though the second princess is so beautiful that her heart beats faster, Yuzhu also knows that if she touches this kind of peerless beauty, she will cause big trouble and may even lose her head!
You can't mess with her, at least not for the time being.
The fourth child is in Henan Province, and the second princess is hoarding grains in Henan Province. They will definitely be forced to buy them at a low price. This is an undoubted outcome.
On the major matter of disaster relief, it is impossible for Yuzhu to go against Lao Si. Because he not only values interests, but also has a conscience.
There are more than a million hungry people in Henan Province crying out for food. It is impossible for Yuzhu to let the poor people starve to death on a large scale just for a little money.
In conscience, I definitely can’t get over that hurdle!
Therefore, there is no point in continuing to quarrel with the second princess.
Ignoring the obstruction of the second princess, Yuzhu led Wu Jiang and left the teahouse.
In most inns of this era, there were only two rows of large bunks in most rooms.
The so-called Datongpu, in the northern region, is a row of long kangs stretching from the front of the house to the end of the house.
People who come to the inn to rest, regardless of gender, wrap themselves in their own quilts and lie down on the kang.
You get what you pay for, and those who are not well-off can only sleep in Datong shops that cost more than ten cents a night.
Yuzhu and Laosi rented a small courtyard together and occupied the east and west wings. The main room was filled with goods deliberately bought with money.
On several wooden stakes in the middle of the yard, mules and pack horses carrying heavy loads were tied.
Before dinner, the local official came to check on the ward.
In this era, no matter who is going out on the road, they need a certificate issued by the government.
In the Qing Dynasty, this kind of voucher was generally divided into three types, namely: department ticket, road guide and Kanhe.
Kanhe is a special voucher for officials and officers to facilitate their stay at the inns or delivery shops along the way, so we will not mention it for now.
The ministry ticket is a kind of licensed trade certificate issued by the Lifan Yuan and implemented by the local government. It is mainly used for trade with Mongolia.
Caravans traveling in the Central Plains must have road guides issued by state and county yamen when traveling on the road.
Laosi and Yuzhu also held Lu Yin in their hands.
As for the origin of Lu Yin, hehe, it’s just the following words: Money can make the world go round.
In the yamen of this era, there were few officials, few officials, and many white men.
These white men only have one lunch a day and no salary at all, so they can only make a fortune by exploiting ordinary people and businessmen.
Yuzhu secretly controlled businesses all over the country. However, in order not to expose his target, he just asked Wu Jiang, who was familiar with the business, to find a way out with his money.
After the officials entered the inn, there was a lot of excitement in Datongpu, and they were very restless.
Across the courtyard wall, Yuzhu could hear clearly the sound of a woman crying over there.
No need to ask, whose woman must have been molested by an official.
There is no other way. If a person who is away from home offends a local official, even if he does not die, he will have to shed several layers of skin and lose his entire family.
The Shihao officials are just arresting strong men. The local county government officials can do whatever they want and legally do evil.
Yuzhu put down the tea cup in his hand and asked Zhou Quan with a smile: "Brother Zhusheng, why don't these official officials come to check on us first?"
Zhou Quan shook open his folding fan and said with a smile: "To be honest with you, Dong Weng, this is called a strategy to knock on the mountain to frighten the tiger, or it can also be called a strategy to stop the grass and scare the snake. Check Datongpu first. In fact, it tells us that we should prepare in advance.
The joints have been saved, so that the women will not be disturbed and the skin and flesh will suffer, but the money is still not saved. Moreover, they must have someone secretly watching our yard to prevent us from running away in fear."
Yuzhu nodded frequently and sighed: "It can be said that you are really good at making money!"
Zhou Quan took a sip of tea and sighed, "Since the Qin Emperor, the troubles caused by subordinate staff and corrupt officials have become more and more serious and are out of control."
Yuzhu blinked and asked Zhou Quan: "Why?"
"Officials displaced from counties and counties have no responsibility to protect the countryside, but they have the power of life and death. As time goes by, every place will suffer disaster."
Zhou Quan's words made Yuzhu silent for a long time.
In addition to land annexation, from another perspective, the dynasty cycle rate is the timetable for corrupt officials and subordinate officials in counties to increase their evil practices.
When corrupt officials and subordinate staff exceed the bottom line, the refugee uprising will break out.
After a while, the officials finally arrived late.
Along the way, Wu Jiang's cleverness has been recognized by the fourth child, so he took the money to take care of the officials in Cao County.
However, what people never expected was that after the first group of officials took the money and left happily, another group came.
Yuzhu immediately realized that maybe someone in the team accidentally exposed his wealth, right?
As expected by Yuzhu, a palace guard next to the fourth son was spotted with a gold and silver baggage on his shoulders, and he was obviously planning to take advantage of him.
"Gentlemen, we have been ordered by the county magistrate to patrol the Jiangyang thief Wang Ermazi. According to the official arrest documents, this brother looks a bit like him. Please come with us back to the Yamen, and wait for the confession to be recorded and the monogram to be drawn.
, will be released immediately."
The chief official looked like a seasoned official at first glance. Everything he said made sense, and his attitude was very gentle, with no hint of any evil demeanor.
To be honest, if you are a country bumpkin who has never seen the world, 90% of the time you will fall into the trap and you will definitely fall into their trap.
Yuzhu has been a local official for a long time and has extremely rich experience in officialdom.
Zhou Quan has always been Master Xing, how could the two of them not understand the hidden tricks?
The so-called release of people after recording a confession is just a lie.
If they really tricked the guard into the Yamen, not only would the guard be dead, but as long as he surrendered, Yuzhu and Laosi would also be arrested. Ugh.
Everyone has been captured, and the goods in the yard, including gold, silver, mules and horses, have all become trophies for the officials.
Old Thirteen was a little out of control, so he asked Old Four in a low voice: "Brother Four, if you are really caught in prison, you will be in trouble. Why don't you let me take action?"
The fourth child still had a straight face and said coldly: "Yuzhu didn't say anything, why are we panicking?"
Old Thirteen was speechless for a while, my dear fourth brother, it was the gold and silver carried by your guard that was targeted, okay?
However, the fourth child never expressed his position, and the thirteenth child did not dare to act rashly, so he could only wink at Yuzhu frequently.
Yuzhu not only has rich officialdom experience, but also has a lot of experience in leading troops to fight.
Although the officers in front of them only had swords on their waists, the cold light reflected from the sun on the wall revealed the reality that there were archers ambushing them outside.
To put it bluntly, these officials who want to take advantage of others have made a foolproof plan and are just waiting for the big fish to take the bait.
Yuzhu smelled something unusual, and when he thought about it again, his mind couldn't help but think of the shocking beauty of the second princess.
Humph, I'm afraid it's this smart girl who is behind this, right?
