Chapter 44 Raising Food

Chapter 44 Raising Food
After leaving a shocking poem, Xiao Mo ran away. Li Yuanwai, who originally thought that Xiao Mo could embarrass him this time, felt that he had hit the empty space with a punch. Xiao Mo was embarrassed, but instead helped Xiao Mo, making him show off.

Undoubtedly, compared to Deng Ying's poem, Xiao Mo's poem is better. A single sentence of "a confidant in the sea, and a neighbor in the world" makes Deng Ying's four-line poem dull.

After receiving the manuscript, Miss Zhilan's eyes were full of surprise. Although she didn't say anything, Miss Zhilan asked Li Yuanwai, hoping to bring the manuscript back!
This time, Xiao Mo wrote the poem in Li's residence, and he didn't take it away. Of course, the poem was given to Du Teng, but the manuscript is of course owned by Li Yuanwai, but Miss Zhilan opened it. Do not agree?

So when Miss Zhilan got the poem manuscript, she smiled with satisfaction, while the remaining three talented scholars of Yushan Academy felt pale and powerless in front of the poems such as "A confidant in the sea, and a neighbor in the world". I'm sorry to write a poem, a banquet just ended like this.

But after seeing off Du Teng, the three talents and Miss Zhilan, Li Yuanwai closed the door with those gentry and discussed something!
Obviously, Xiao Mo's attitude just now made Li Yuanwai very angry, and the consequences were very serious...

Xiao Mo left Li's mansion, instead of going home, he came to the Yamen and confessed that after Zhou Kui was on guard outside the study, Xiao Mo saw Li Ji.

"grown ups!"

"Oh, it's Ziheng, hehe...you're looking for me so late, do you have something to do?"

"My lord, where is Master Zhou?"

Not seeing Zhou Chang, Xiao Mo was a little surprised, so he asked.

Li Ji laughed: "Ask him! Bo Yuan has already gone back to the state capital... Didn't you go to Li Yuanwai's house for a banquet?"

Xiao Mo had no choice but to smile wryly: "Hongmen Banquet, it's still the kind that you can't even eat..."

Seeing Xiao Mo's aggrieved face, Li Ji laughed, pointed at Xiao Mo, and then shook his head: "You, stop pretending, how did I hear that you ate dinner in the yamen?"

"You know all of this?" Xiao Mo murmured in his heart, it seems that Li Ji is also a stingy master, he even watched his dinner in the yamen.

Regarding Zhou Chang's return to Luzhou, Xiao Mo didn't ask much, and Li Ji didn't say anything, and he couldn't find out if he asked. It must be something important. This time Xiao Mo came to Li Ji, but he came to Li Ji Quarterly vaccinations.

Xiao Mo briefly talked to Li Ji about what happened at the banquet, but of course Xiao Mo didn't say anything about composing the poem because it was unnecessary. Ji's brows frowned, and both eyebrows were squeezed together.

"That is to say, you can't talk about going together?"

Xiao Mo shook his head: "It's impossible to talk at all, no one will give you a chance to speak!"

I didn't lie, what Xiao Mo said was the truth, because I didn't have a chance to speak at all. Although Li Yuanwai approached Xiao Mo in the end, could his attitude be the same at that time?

First find someone to make them unable to get off the stage, and then smile at him, do you really think that others are not bloody at all?
Li Ji also felt a little embarrassed, looked at Xiao Mo dryly, and asked: "Ziheng, is there any room?"

Xiao Mo stared at Li Ji, shaking his head slowly, Li Ji still didn't give up: "Then what about the food? Ziheng, the county is short of food now, and only these gentry have the food to make Shen County survive the summer... ..."

"But they won't hand it over." Xiao Mo interrupted Li Ji's words: "Even if they are willing to give food to the county, my lord, don't forget that the price of food has risen to two taels of silver per stone. I'm afraid it will cost tens of thousands of taels of silver for us to get it, so I dare to ask, where does the county get the money to buy the rice in the hands of these gentry?"

Hearing this, Li Ji felt that what Xiao Mo said was reasonable, the current Shen county is indeed very difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, the people's food must be guaranteed. "Ziheng, food is the most important thing for the people. You promised before that after distributing the food from Fengping warehouse to the three towns, you can find food for the county!"

There is really no other way, Li Ji can only push it to Xiao Mo, who told Xiao Mo to agree so neatly when he wanted Feng to close the warehouse?

Xiao Mo said: "Of course, this is also the reason why I came here tonight to find my lord. Your lord is the lord of a county. Xiao Mo can provide this food, but as for whether the food can come to the county, enter Fengping Let’s go, it’s up to the adults!”

Why is this still mysterious?Li Ji was impatient, so he asked: "Zi Heng has something to say, as long as I don't let the officer take the soldiers and horses of the city supervisor to rob the house of the noble gentry, no matter what, I will fully cooperate with you!"

"My lord said it, but is it true?" Xiao Mo frowned.

"Really!" Li Ji gritted his teeth and agreed, but he felt a bad feeling in his heart. Then, looking at Xiao Mo's smiling face, Li Ji wiped his sweat and asked quickly, "Say it, what do you want?" What should I do?"

"Then sir, sign this document first!"

Xiao Mo smiled and took out a document from his sleeve, Li Ji took it over and looked at it, and it was impressively written: This county's young mansion, Xiao Mo Xiao Ziheng, is acting as an agent for the county's affairs when he is away from the county to raise food , Li Jizi, the county magistrate of Shen County!
Li Ji put the documents on the table and glanced at Xiao Mo: "Zi Heng, why is this?"

Just kidding, it is impossible for Tangtang county magistrate to cede his power without explaining clearly, even if Li Ji trusts Xiao Mo very much.

After all, this matter is related to the black gauze hat on Li Ji's head!

Xiao Mo knew that Li Ji was suspicious in his heart, and he was afraid that he would be very dissatisfied with himself now, but Xiao Mo still wanted to say: "My lord, I must know the meaning of the document, that's right, this time, my lord is afraid that I will leave Shen It’s been a while since the county, if this is the case, the lower officials will be able to fight those gentry and see who is tougher!”

"Is that all it is?" Li Ji asked suspiciously, and then his face changed: "It's too much fun! Xiao Mo, what is your position as the county magistrate? Do children play house?"

Being scolded twice by Li Ji, Xiao Mo was not angry, but whispered a few words in Li Ji's ear. After Li Ji heard this, his anger immediately disappeared, and he looked at Xiao Mo in surprise: "Ziheng, Is this really okay?"

As soon as the anger dissipated, Ziheng was called immediately, and Li Ji's temper became fast enough.

"At present, this is the only way, but before my lord leaves, I have to go to Mr. Zhou and ask him to sign an approval slip. Otherwise, if I leave Shen County privately during my tenure, I'm afraid the superiors will blame you! Also, My lord, remember, this time the county can only give you 20 days, after 20 days, Feishui must see a grain transport ship!" Xiao Mo said very carefully!

"It's enough to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang in 20 days, but what I'm worried about is, are these grain merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang really willing to come to Shen County?" Li Ji stroked his beard thoughtfully, and then said Thoughts in my heart!
