Summary of the previous chapter: Cao Cao and Ma Xiaoquan discussed to give Emperor Xian of Han a small deterrent. Ma Xiaoquan took this opportunity to contract the excavation project of Xuanwu Pond from Cao Cao and became the contractor...
.
"Compensate everyone" is the first requirement Ma Xiaoquan put forward after taking over the excavation work of Xuanwu Pond.
As soon as the request was put forward, it was immediately warmly welcomed by the majority of military and civilian workers. Gradually, the previous rumors of "God's will" were disproven.
Of course, because of this request, Cao Cao was bleeding a lot. However, Cao Cao didn't seem to care much about spending money. Anyway, the land in Yecheng belonged to him, and the money would eventually return to Cao Cao's pocket.
At night, Hua Yuexin led several ladies to come to express condolences to Ma Xiaoquan. After entering the account, Hua Yuexin picked up the account book and looked through it, and was stunned.
"Ms. sir, why are there so many..."
Ma Xiaoquan stepped forward and covered Hua Yuexin's red lips, and said alertly: "Just keep your voice down, you know."
After all, Hua Yuexin was the real wife. Seeing how cautious her husband was, she instantly became more cautious than Ma Xiaoquan.
"Ms. sir, would you like to find a safe place to put these ledgers?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled: "No, the most dangerous place is also the safest place. There is no need to hide so secretly. If we do this, that guy Xiao Cao will doubt me. Besides, I have a backup plan...
...By the way, Yue'er, I need you to hide for a while..."
Hua Yuexin nodded: "Everything will be done according to your husband's words."
...
Ma Xiaoquan is right. The project has been carried out for two months, and the weather has become much warmer. The warmer weather naturally makes it easier to dig the ground, and naturally less money will be used.
Cao Cao came over to check the accounts on the pretext of visiting Master Shangxian. Of course, Ma Xiaoquan could not show him the original accounts.
For this reason, Ma Xiaoquan ordered one of the "Eight Scholars" named Yao Zhi to forge several accounts.
Yao Zhi's character is bright, and his name seems quite bright, but in fact, Yao Zhi himself is not bright at all.
Yao Zhi was born in a small gentry family. His mother was not his wife, but she was his concubine.
Therefore, Yao Zhi's father brought Yao Zhi over during the last relocation banquet of the Ma family.
Yao Zhi's father's original intention was not for Yao Zhi to stay, but Yao Zhi was very scheming. He first spread some rumors about his brothers and sisters, and then disguised himself as a victim... Yao Zhi
The father didn't know what was going on, so he went back and forth to choose, and finally chose Yao Zhi to stay.
Yao Zhi is young, less than 20 years old. In modern society, the mind of this age is generally still immature, but even at this age, Yao Zhi can do things beyond his age, plus
Yao Zhiyi wanted to stay in the Ma family. In the test some time ago, his performance was pretty good... Of course, as for the reason why Hua Wuxin and Huang Chang were voted out, and Yao Zhiyi
Ambition has a lot to do with it.
Ma Xiaoquan knew all of this.
For someone like Yao Zhi, if you want to use him, you have to use him based on the strategy of 3-point use and 7-point defense.
Although Yao Zhi can only get 3 points in terms of use, it is enough. When dealing with subordinates like Yao Zhi, Ma Xiaoquan will not force him to be loyal, and will even kill him when necessary.
...Of course, if it really comes to that point, Ma Xiaoquan would actually feel very sorry.
...
"Master...the accounts you want...are all here..." Yao Zhi respectfully presented the forged accounts to Ma Xiaoquan.
Ma Xiaoquan picked up a book casually, flipped through it, and said with satisfaction: "Yao Zhi, your account cannot be said to be forged, hmm... It can be said that 7 points are actually 3 points false.
,good,very good”
Yao Zhi nodded and said respectfully: "My master is wise."
Ma Xiaoquan changed another account, opened two pages and read it carefully.
Suddenly, Ma Xiaoquan made a "stab" sound and tore off two pages of the account. Then, before Yao Zhi could react, Ma Xiaoquan concentrated his energy and immediately burned the two pages of the account in his hand.
"Master..." Yao Zhi was very surprised. You must know that he spent a lot of thought on these accounts.
Ma Xiaoquan laughed: "Mingming, are you surprised? Don't be surprised. Master, I burned these two pages of accounts. Think about it carefully. Why did I do this?"
Ma Xiaoquan said and threw the account book in his hand to Yao Zhi.
Yao Zhi took it easily, opened it and took a look. He was stunned for a moment, and then he understood.
"Thank you, Master!" Yao Zhi knelt on his knees, kowtowed and thanked Ma Xiaoquan.
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "That's what you deserve. I will tell my sister Ma Zhuzhu what you deserve. When the time comes, just go and get it!"
"Dong dong dong" Yao Zhi kowtowed three times in a row.
Ma Xiaoquan helped Yao Zhi up and patted his shoulder: "Mingming, Yao Zhi's words, master, I value you very much, and I want to leave you to do many things. Of course, because these things are sometimes not very honorable, so
..."
Yao Zhi said respectfully: "Master, don't worry, I, Yao Zhi, am not a gentleman either..."
"Okay!" Ma Xiaoquan clapped his hands, "With Mingliang's words, I feel at ease... Well... go on..."
"Yes, I am resigning!"
...
As soon as Yao Zhi stepped back, Hua Wuxin came out from behind the screen.
"Master" Hua Wuxin knelt on one knee, extremely respectful.
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Did you hear the conversation I had with Yao Zhi just now?"
Hua Wuxin nodded.
"Wuxin, what do you think?"
Hua Wuxin thought for a moment: "Based on this, Yao Zhi seems to be quite loyal to his master."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said: "You are wrong Wuxin. The so-called people who are not from my race must have different minds. Yao Zhi and I have a different relationship than you and I. Although you are a member of the Hua family, overall,
, you and I are still related as relatives, so I have much more trust in you."
Hua Wuxin nodded and said respectfully: "Thank you, Master, for your love!"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and helped Hua Wuxin up: "You don't have to be polite to Wuxin. Okay, you can go down too."
"yes"
...
After Hua Wuxin stepped back, the bed board suddenly moved.
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and said softly: "Madam, please come out."
The bed board creaked as someone opened it from the inside.
Under the couch was none other than Ma Xiaoquan's wife Hua Yuexin.
Hua Yuexin pursed her lips and stretched out her arms, as if she wanted you to hug her.
Ma Xiaoquan scratched his scalp, walked forward, and hugged Hua Yuexin sideways.
Lying in the arms of the man she loves, Hua Yue's lover is not intoxicated: "Mr. Hua Yue, look at you now, you really look like the head of the family..."
Ma Xiaoquan reached into Hua Yuexin's clothes and gently kneaded the two soft peaks.
Hua Yuexin snorted tenderly and murmured: "When I was young, I saw my grandpa treat his servants like this, and my husband is doing the same today..."
While Ma Xiaoquan continued kneading, he asked: "Why is it so done?"
Hua Yuexin's face turned red to the base of her neck after being teased by Ma Xiaoquan.
"Ms.-in-law... um... Mr.-in-law... don't..."
Ma Xiaoquan didn't care so much. He pulled off the robe with a stab and threw Hua Yuexin down on the couch like a wild beast...
There are still laborers working on construction and excavation outside, and they are working in full swing, but inside the tent, Wushan is full of spring scenery.
At this time, a strong wind suddenly blew up outside, which suddenly blew the water sail on the top of the tent to a whirring sound.
Hua Yuexin suddenly turned over, bit Ma Xiaoquan hard, and then went straight to the clouds...
The strong wind gradually became lighter and the camp also calmed down.
Attached to Xianggong's body, Hua Yuexin's face flushed and she was happy, while Ma Xiaoquan was secretly happy.
When he was proud, Ma Xiaoquan couldn't help but say: "This shot is so damn good."
Hua Yuexin was curious and asked: "Ms. sir, what is this gun?"
Ma Xiaoquan: "...Oh, haha, I call our intimacy called blowing bubbles..."
Hua Yuexin rolled her eyes at Ma Xiaoquan: "You are the only one with more clever ideas."
"hey-hey"
...
The two rested for a while, and then Hua Yuexin slowly put on her robe.
"By the way, sir, I haven't finished what I just said."
Ma Xiaoquan was lying on the couch with his back stretched out, his lower body covered with a blanket.
"Say it, your husband, I'm listening."
Hua Yuexin nodded and said: "Xianggong is like a family head. He has matured and knows how to use tactics..."
Listening to his wife's comments, Ma Xiaoquan kept nodding.
After Hua Yuexin finished speaking, Ma Xiaoquan murmured: "I was in 189... Oh no, it has been almost 20 years since the sixth year of Zhongping. If you, husband, and I were not more mature, what would happen?
Decency?"
Hua Yuexin nodded, approached Ma Xiaoquan, and looked at him affectionately.
"But my husband, my husband will not grow old. One day Yue'er will be old. Will my husband still care about Yue'er and love Yue'er?"
Ma Xiaoquan sat up and gently hugged Hua Yuexin: "I will, Madam, don't worry!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the heart of time in Ma Xiaoquan's belly suddenly spoke.
"Ma Xiaoquan, you lied, you are clearly thinking about Mingyue Xin..."
"Uh" Ma Xiaoquan was startled and pushed Hua Yuexin out in a hurry.
"What's wrong, Mr. Xian?"
Ma Xiaoquan lied: "A flying insect dangled in front of my ear and almost got into my ear."
Hua Yuexin said oh and leaned over again.
...
After reading the accounts, Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction. He did not expect Lord Shangxian to take out the account book so readily.
