Chapter 139 Deception, She Never Failed

Su Jian choked up a few times, put down her sleeves, and looked at the county magistrate.Sure enough, he still has a brain, knowing that today's incident is a big deal, if someone with a heart listens to it, even if the General's Mansion cannot get rid of the responsibility, but he, the county magistrate, has done his best.After all, when Zhan Zhan had not been clearly defined as death, a small county magistrate spread rumors that Zhan Zhan had an accident, which would shake the morale of the army and the people; in the same way, the emperor had not yet defined Zhan Zhan's death, but he said that Zhan Zhan would not return. Come on, isn't that because he has more information and power than the emperor?

No matter which one, he can't afford to be guilty.

After predicting this point, Su Jian became more confident: "The general is our god, you said the general will not come back, we can't even imagine the days without the general...how can we live?
You asked me how to settle today's incident, why, the county magistrate thinks that today's incident is all my fault? "

"The lower official made a slip of the tongue."

"..."

"Ma'am, forgive me."

When Su Jian heard the county magistrate apologize again, she said, "Magistrate, to be honest, are you here today to condolence, affirm us, or force us to die?"

"Ma'am, the lower officials will never dare to have such thoughts." The county magistrate panicked.

"Then what are you doing today?" Su Jian looked at the county magistrate.

The county magistrate paused, and never mentioned the matter of planting crops again, only said: "Just pure condolences."

"Vorally?" Su Jian looked at the county magistrate, empty-handed, and began to hint.

"This... madam..."

"Empty hands are all you need for condolences? Is this taught in the sages' books?" Su Jian said, unwilling to quarrel with the county magistrate.

The county magistrate looked at Su Jian, seeing Su Jian also looking at him, his heart trembled.Although Su Jian looked sad, there was no trace of sadness in her eyes.

The county magistrate made a secret mistake, and today he was at a disadvantage when confronting Su Jian.But since the matter has developed to this point, he can only compromise first, and then make a long-term plan.

Su Jian glanced at the county magistrate, he didn't seem to be very smart, the more she said it became more obvious, but he still didn't show it.The county magistrate pretended to be stupid, but she didn't want to act again, mainly because playing someone who was not her character, it was too tiring!
"My lord has come this far, and I will worry every day in the future. I have no intention of cropping or living. I can only become thinner and more lonely. When I fall down, I don't know what the general's mansion will live on in the future, and how long it can last."

The county magistrate paused and took a deep look at Su Jian. Is Su Jian starting to sell miserably?

"The General's Mansion will definitely develop in the future, Madam, don't worry too much, but today it is true that the lower officials didn't think carefully. The lower officials didn't come to express their condolences empty-handed. I have a general understanding of the situation in the General's Mansion. What to give is better than giving money." The ticket is so considerate, ma'am, it's 100 taels."

Su Jian's eyes moved, it seemed that he understood and started to act: "Hey, my heart feels even worse. The general is not doing well, and the general's mansion is no longer in the eyes of others."

"200 taels." Is this a dislike for 100 taels?

"..." Su Jian didn't speak, but continued to beat her chest.

The county magistrate's eyes darkened: "500 taels! Ma'am, this is the limit for a lower official."

Su Jian sensed the change in the county magistrate's tone, she accepted it when she saw it, and looked up at him: "Since the county magistrate wants to help the general's mansion so much, I can only thank you again.

Song Siqi!He took the silver ticket from the county magistrate and used it to stamp the gate of the general's mansion. "It happens that many people in the mansion do not have a separate residence, and she originally intended to build neat houses on both sides of the road with Xiaosu's workshop as the center and the general's mansion as the boundary. After the house was built, everyone in the mansion and the surrounding farmers, These houses can be purchased or leased, or lived in, or run a business.

Originally thought that such an idea would take some time to be implemented, but the county magistrate took the initiative to send money, so it can be started immediately.After all, it's not money earned down-to-earth, so I don't feel at ease if I keep it.

Song Siqi took the bank note from the county magistrate, and thought to himself that what Zhang Da said was right, no one could take advantage of Su Jian, their wife was really extraordinary!
The county magistrate saw Su Jian's tone change. In his words and under his face, there was no trace of sadness before. Su Jian was acting!He clenched his fists behind him violently, restraining the emotion in his heart: "Ma'am, it's getting late today, and I'll take my leave first."

"Ah."

With Su Jian's consent, the county magistrate turned and left.She didn't notice that Su Jian's eyes stayed on him all the time.

Su Jian looked at the county magistrate's back, her thoughts drifted away.This county magistrate can't do it, he can take out 500 taels at once.According to the conversion of this world's money, even if he has been a county magistrate for ten years, without eating or drinking, and only relying on monthly official silver, he cannot have 500 taels.

Moreover, with her behavior just now, normal people would be angry when they met her, but the county magistrate was able to leave politely, and on the surface, she didn't see that he had a lot of dissatisfaction with the general's mansion. What does this prove?
The county magistrate came today to test?Or are you trying to find out the inside of the general's mansion before taking any action?Moreover, a mere county magistrate would never dare to blatantly plot against the general's mansion, against the general's mansion, all the signs...Su Jian is more sure that there is someone behind the county magistrate!
Su Jian's eyes were heavy. It seemed that she was just farming and doing business behind closed doors, and her peaceful life might not last long.But what can she do?We can only deal with the matter at hand first, and strive to make the general's mansion bigger and stronger. As for other things, we should take one step at a time.

"Song Siqi, tell the people in the mansion to keep a low profile and stay out of the mansion as much as possible, so as not to be caught."

Song Siqi saluted quickly and agreed.Even if Su Jian didn't order it, he would continue to order it. There are too many people who don't want the general's mansion to get better, so it's always right to be careful.

"Go and find me Xiong Xiazi and Su Qin." Su Jian thought, now that the general's mansion is not full-fledged, she must not be able to go out and fight people head-on, but she is not afraid of people coming to make trouble. Trouble, she brought the old and weak women and children of the general's mansion to the door. With the name of the general's mansion, and they are weak, they should still be able to pass through on the surface, but secretly...

Still have to make more money.

As long as there is enough money, in case of any emergency, everyone in the mansion can make comprehensive arrangements.

Day by day, Su Jian was worried that the county magistrate would play tricks, but life went on as usual, and the county magistrate did not take any action.

Su Jian originally worried that the business of her two stores in the county would be affected, but in fact it did not.

Could it be that she was thinking too much?
Or is it that all the current peace is an illusion, the enemy is paralyzing them in the dark, and there will be a storm in the future, which will catch them off guard?
