four two xue

In mid-April of the fourth year of Xingwu, Yangcheng, the original general hall of the Thirteen Banks, now the southeast headquarters of Xuezihao, and the main study room in the backyard.

A woman with a pretty face is sitting at the desk. She is not wearing a gorgeous Hanfu. Even the materials are only materials that ordinary rich people can use. Her lips are not smudged but red, her eyebrows are not painted but emerald, and her face is like silver. Her eyes are like water apricots, but her brows are slightly frowned, and she bites the small jade tube pen in her hand from time to time, which one is it not Baochai?

"Sister Ying'er, give it to me!" A clear female voice came from outside the door, and soon the door slammed softly, followed by the sound of closing the door again. Xue Baoqin came in with a tea tray, and a bowl of ginseng soup was placed on Xue Baochai's right hand , "My good sister, this account was not completed in one day, the clapper outside knocked three times, are you still not asleep?"

"How can the accounts be so simple?" Xue Baochai sighed softly, put down the brush in his hand helplessly, pointed to Shentang and said, "Also, it's fine if Yinger doesn't understand, why are you still making trouble? Do you need this Lao Shizi?"

"Hehehe, Brother Xu is really too. He is open to everything in his family, and he can't wait for outsiders to put a steel plate on himself." Xue Baoqin said with a smile, "Ying'er has served you for so many years, and I still don't know that you are already a golden fairy. , I thought it was just following the martial arts to keep fit.

The same maid, Baozhu is already her own sister now, but she herself is willing to be a slave to serve Sister Ke'er; Ying'er, Xueyan and Cuilu don't know anything, and they still dream of ordinary girls. "

"I don't know why Brother Xu didn't accept them, and he even persuaded them specifically for this reason, but now it can only be like this." Xue Baochai smiled and shook his head, "Let's not talk about these girls, so what if it's sister Xiuyan? No. Haven't paid much attention so far?"

"Probably everyone has their own fate, so you can't force it." Xue Baoqin shook her head, "For example, the same is true for Sister Yuanyang. The girls in the family, Yinglian and Mei Niang are the shadows of Sister Ke'er and Sister Suzhen. There is nothing to say .

When Sister Baozhu entered the door, she was actually a step ahead. She was—hehe, Brother Xu's first teacher, but Sister Ruizhu who was with her was married off a long time ago, and now she has a harmonious family. "

"Forget it, let's not talk about these things." Xue Baochai picked up the ginseng soup and finished it in one gulp, then put the bowl back on the tea tray, and then opened a blueprint and said, "Although the thirteen lines have been cleaned up for some years, but This export business cannot be stopped.

It's not like you don't know what's going on in the southeast coast in the past few years. After being beaten down by Brother Xu, those lingering residues have already colluded together, almost desperately hindering the development of the world. "

"Unfortunately, they wouldn't have thought that Sister Lin had already refined the entire Lihentian and used the 'Spiritual Treasure Jade' as a medium to completely control this world. As long as we have a general direction, nothing in the world will exist. secret.

Isn’t it just the remnants of the big turban, the Northwest Merchant Gang, the core of the Thirteen Acts, the southeast smuggling group, and the old and young of the Li family, these people are at most the first time to do it. A little trouble, which one escaped next? "Xue Baoqin said with a smile.

"They will die as soon as they die, and we have to solve the troubles left by ourselves." Xue Baochai said angrily, "For example, this small island on the map was originally a temporary safe haven for fishermen when they went to sea, and no one cares about it on weekdays.

However, there is a freshwater spring on this small island, which was spotted by the scum, so they colluded with pirates and lurked here, pretending to be fishermen and occupying it for a long time, but in fact it was a stronghold for pirates to sell and hide their stolen goods. The person in charge was even a descendant of the Li family .

Fortunately, we have a direct insight into the whole world, so we have seen through their tricks. I am afraid that no one would have guessed that this small island is actually one of the core nodes of smuggling along the southeast coast, with an annual flow of more than 300 million taels. "

"Did a lot of people die?" Xue Baoqin asked with a cold snort. She was the person in charge of the sea for the entire Wei family and even the Great Xia Dynasty.

"The fishermen along the coast don't know what's going on, and many of them regard this place as a safe haven. None of the fishermen who went to the island has survived since last year." Xue Baochai said in a deep voice, "The total number has exceeded two hundred.

The forces behind it include the remnants of the Thirteen Lines, the remnants of the Jinling Zhen family, the remnants of the entire southeast gentry group, and even the shadow of the Western red-haired ghost, because there are many Western goods in this smuggling line. "

"What does Brother Xu mean?" Xue Baoqin frowned.

"The core of this matter is actually the counterattack of the group of big turbans. Brother Xu's 'land state ownership' policy is completely at odds with them. It is not surprising that some people make trouble, it is strange that the world is peaceful.

Therefore, they are almost desperate to collude with all forces, whether it is gangs or bandits, whether it is internal thieves or foreign enemies, and even completely disregarding face, even the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion colluded to win over and corrupt our personnel.

But now, we have become an official court, and many things have to be done according to the rules. If sister Lin has not been monitoring the world, I am afraid it will really cause us a lot of trouble. "Xue Baochai said with a headache.

"The southeast coast is the hardest-hit area because it has never been substantively included in the imperial power. It was the private land of the former Li family." Xue Baoqin smiled and said, "Originally, you and I were only responsible for commerce and maritime trade, but we had to These problems are a headache. But it’s not just us. In Beidi, sister Qingyan is leading Zhiqiu to cooperate with sister Saezi; in Jiangnan, sister Baozhu is in charge on behalf of sister Ke’er, plus sister Yun; in Zhongnan, sister Xiuxun is busy. "The southwest is where Sister Suzhen and Sister Mei Niang are located, so it can be considered the place of foundation."

"You forgot that there is a sister Miaoyu in Baishan Heishui, plus sister Bai in northern Xinjiang and northwest." Xue Baochai shook his head speechlessly, "It's also fortunate that we don't have to be like those dynasties in the past, otherwise the current situation, the founding king It’s okay if you’re here, but if you’re not here, the civil strife in your own family can destroy the world.”

"Pfft——" Xue Baoqin couldn't help laughing, "It means Brother Xu dares to let the inner house participate in political affairs like this. Otherwise, the Qin Emperor and Han Wu will be resurrected, Tang Zong and Song Zu will be reborn, and the current situation may not be resolved."

"Throughout history, which emperor dared to offend the upper class of the whole world and take care of the lower class people with all his heart?" Xue Baochai said quietly, "Probably only the red Huaxia we know from Brother Xu dared to do this."

"Yes, compulsory education for all is only in its fourth year, and it has already seen good results. Many teenagers who were not literate or knowledgeable in their teens have obviously improved their quality after learning.

Among other things, when the local governments arrange work in the countryside, such as collecting taxes, recruiting people to work, or promoting policies, they no longer have to rely entirely on the local gentry and landlords or clans, which has greatly weakened their influence. "Xue Baoqin said with a smile.

"Then it's no wonder they all tried their best to stop it." Xue Baochai said with a sneer. "Just because of destroying schools and preventing teenagers from going to school, how many people were arrested and sent to forced labor reform? I remember more than 30?"

"It happens that there is a shortage of people in construction everywhere, so let them make some contributions to the country." Xue Baoqin said with a smile, "Okay, let's not talk about this. Now that the problem is determined, sister can think about how to deal with it?"

"I won't ask about matters at sea, just look at the arrangements." Xue Baochai first pushed a little responsibility, "As for the so-called 'civilian disturbances' in various places, we only need to sort out the information and hand it over to the garrisons in various places. We will cooperate with the local government to clean up the problem."

"Speaking of which, today's magistrates and county magistrates are basically replaced by the manpower trained by brother Xu at the beginning, but it is difficult to say the manpower below, so that many local governments have various policies that are difficult to implement. The problem.

Fortunately, the army is in absolute control. Brother Xu's "military management" strategy is indeed very effective. Use it if you obey, deal with it if you don't obey, and dispatch the army to clean it up if you are in a hurry.

As for the sea, I have notified the offshore fleets to sweep all the islands within a hundred miles of the entire China coast in the form of dragging nets, absolutely leaving no dead spots, and absolutely ensuring that there will be no such pirate lairs. This requires intelligence to be released.

I have no choice but to beg Sister Lin. "Xue Baoqin said quietly, "Speaking of which, Xiang'er under her knee is almost two years old now, Brother Xu is also at ease, even the son is willing to let his mother's surname go. "

"Qin'er, are you not in a hurry?" Xue Baochai asked softly. Since Xue Baoqin officially entered the door, the two sisters basically never separated when they followed Wei Xu, and there was no shyness or embarrassment between them.

"What's the use of being anxious?" Xue Baoqin said angrily, "Brother Xu has never treated our sisters badly, but we have not lived up to it so far. I also want to open it. Anyway, I don't have to think about taking the heir. It’s almost infinite, so it’s better to let nature take its course.”

"Hmph, brother Xu did not treat us badly, but how many things were wasted? It was all given to you by a dead hoof." Xue Baochai nodded her cousin's cherry lips, and said angrily, "Although my daughter is married and obeys her husband , but it can’t be without a bottom line.”

"Hey——" Xue Baoqin flung herself into her cousin's arms in embarrassment, and kept rubbing her head, "You still say how many times you sneaked into the desk in this study, do you really think I don't know at all? "

"You really deserve that hoof!" Xue Baochai's cheeks were flushed with embarrassment, and when he got angry, he would punch him a little, "If you dare to do this again in the future, see if I don't tear your mouth apart!"

"Oh, good sister, I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again next time!" After being hit a few times, Xue Baoqin had to beg for mercy and change the subject, "Brother Xu—seems to be in a land of white mountains and black water these days? Where is sister Miaoyu? I've heard a lot going on over there."

"Luo Fang and Xu Fei are preparing to pacify the Koryo Peninsula. The war is complicated. There are indeed a lot of things. It is normal for Brother Xu to be there. I am afraid that some days will be—do you think?" Xue Baochai was stunned for a moment before he realized it.

"Sister Miaoyu is only alone, so I don't know if she can bear it." Xue Baoqin said as she got into her cousin's arms with a blushing face.

"Then we have to arrange the work first!" Xue Baochai nodded fiercely after thinking for a while, "It's also right for a family to help each other!"
