super concubine

Chapter 45
With Li Ji's nod of approval, Xiao Mo gave the distressed magistrate a reassuring look before leaving the study.

After signing the document for Xiao Mo to act as the county official, Li Ji left immediately, but instead of going to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he first went to Luzhou and found Zhou Chang.

Zhou often saw an action plan written by Xiao Mo to Li Ji, after reading it, he slapped his thigh: "This Xiao Ziheng, why does his head grow?"

Li Jixin said, what are you excited about?Is this really such a good idea?So he asked, "Bo Yuan, is this method really feasible?"

Zhou Chang said: "It's feasible, haha... I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, this kid has some skills, such as here..." Pointing to a line written by Xiao Mo, Zhou Chang said to Li Ji: "He asked you to just notify the grain workers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Merchants, brought grain to Shenxian County to discuss the matter of exchanging grain for mines, but they didn’t let you talk about the price of iron ore transfers, and didn’t let you limit the number of grain merchants. Instead, they asked for as many as possible. Among them, I'm afraid this kid just played a trick..."

Li Ji has been very busy recently, seeing Zhou Chang half-spoken, how could he be in the mood to play charades with him?He said, "Boyuan, keep talking!"

Zhou Chang touched his goatee and said with a smile: "Think about it, if these grain merchants really came to Shen County with thousands of shi of grain, and then found out that they came to Shen County to compete... Uh, in Ziheng's words, it's a bidding , anyway, after meeting the grain merchants, aren't they all dumbfounded?"

Li Ji nodded: "That's right, when the time comes, if the food is transported back, it will cost too much and you will lose money. If you stay here for bidding, you may be delayed for a long time, and the food will become moldy. In this way..."

Zhou Chang went on to say: "They have to lower the price of grain. In short, they will buy whoever's or not. The initiative is in our hands. At that time, these grain merchants will have to look at the face of the yamen, and even the local gentry, I'm afraid I will also fight for... er, bidding, it's bidding for iron mines, Ziheng is killing three birds with one stone!"

"That's right!" Li Ji also beamed with open eyes, and finally let go of the stone in his heart, but he was still a little worried: "What if the grain merchants from Jiangsu and Zhejiang don't come to Shen County?"

Zhou Chang took a look at Li Ji and thought, why is the teacher's son not enlightened?

"Those grain merchants will definitely come. As long as Zhizheng publicizes the iron ore bidding in Shen County, even if those grain merchants are not interested, there are still many merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang who want to compete for the bidding. They will help you get it done. These grain merchants!"

In this way, Li Ji completely let go of the stone in his heart, and then sat on the swaying sedan chair and came to the pier, accompanied by his master Qin Ye and several guards.

After Qin Ye and Li Ji left Shen County, only Xiao Mo and Yan Shiba were the only big bosses in the yamen. Xiao Mo then invited Yan Shiba to the West Yamen, and then the two sat in the Yamen, handling the affairs of the county while waiting for news from outside.

I don’t know if it’s a good deal, anyway, early this morning, all the grain shops in Shen County posted a notice at the door, saying that the grain in the shop was in an emergency and could no longer be sold...

Hearing this news, Xiao Mo sneered, and then ordered a few servants to go outside and watch the grain shops.

In the evening, when the servants came back, when they saw Xiao Mo, they said, "My lord, those grain stores sell grain as usual, there is no abnormality!"

"Oh?" Xiao Mo asked, "Is there really nothing abnormal?"

The messengers all shook their heads, and one of them thought of something: "Oh, it's just that today's grain price has risen again. Now it's six taels of silver a stone, and each bucket has increased by a hundred Wen!"

Xiao Mo gave the messenger a blank look, and said in his heart: "It's really long-winded, don't I know how to count it myself?"
Seeing that Xiao Mo's expression was not very good, the messengers just walked away.

It seems that these grain merchants are not easy to get along with. They have clearly agreed to stop selling grain and force the government to negotiate with them. Make a fortune!
The more Xiao Mo thought about it, the more annoyed these unscrupulous businessmen actually took advantage of the difficulties of the people to make huge profits. He really wanted to punish them, but Zhou Chang and Li Ji repeatedly confessed to themselves that they could not fall out with the squires in Shen County up!
In fact, Xiao Mo had always wondered why Li Ji, who was filled with righteous indignation, changed his mind. It wasn't until Xiao Mo came back from Li's mansion that he inquired about Li Yuanwai's affairs and found out that Li Yuanwai's name was Li Yuan. It's just that Li Yuan has a nephew who was abducted to the capital a few years ago, and there was no news of him. Later, Li Yuan's nephew came to his door, and he was wearing fine silk. He was sold to the imperial palace and became a eunuch, and then fell to the eastern palace, where he served the prince, and was appreciated by the prince, so he was made the father-in-law of the eastern palace, that is, the head of the eunuch!
Although it is said that Li Yuan's nephew is just a eunuch, after all, he is a person close to the prince. He hangs around the prince every day. Zhou Chang and Li Ji also have to give the prince this face. Of course, the current prince will definitely not go to Zhou for this matter. Chang made a point of telling him that after Zhou Chang took office, Li Yuan came to visit him once, and only then did he know that Li Yuan had such a backer. No wonder he dared to confront Li Ji in the county!

Knowing that there was a father-in-law next to the prince behind Li Yuan, Zhou Chang and Li Ji had to reconsider, so they told Xiao Mo not to embarrass these squires.

Of course, Xiao Mo wouldn't go out of his way to provoke people who don't even want to provoke a prefect of a prefecture or a magistrate of a county, but the food problem in Shen County has to be solved, so Xiao Mo had no choice but to let Li Ji went to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to walk around. To put it bluntly, it was the same as attracting investment, but Shen County only recruited food!
In addition to the problem of food, there is another thing to be solved, and that is the source of water!

The problem of water shortage in the three towns is urgent. Now people have to use wooden barrels to fetch water from the Feishui River. Most of the families in Changle Town are widows, or old and weak children. Where does the strength come from?
Fortunately, Xiao Mo opened the Fengping warehouse and distributed some food to the three towns. Otherwise, these people would starve to death if they were not exhausted. So when Lu Lu left Shen County, Xiao Mo specially confessed to them. The three towns are about to start construction, leading craftsmen to mine iron ore, and carpenters to make windmills.

Because the windmill is too big, just to be on the safe side, Xiao Mo used steel, so the windmill is much stronger!
After finishing the work in the yamen, and telling Yan Shiba and Lin Yiye to sit in the yamen, Xiao Mo returned home. As soon as he entered, Xiao Mo saw an acquaintance, Hu Yunxue!
The father and daughter went to the city today, although Xiao Mo asked Yuniang to help them buy Chen Wuliang's house, but they still need to tidy up, so they can only have dinner at Xiao's house tonight.

This was specifically requested by Xiao Mo, and Dr. Hu did not shirk it.

After returning home, Yuniang, who was chatting with Hu Yunxue, stood up and helped Xiao Mo take off his robe, then put it away, and said to Xiao Mo: "Ziheng, you are back, let's talk, I will go to the backyard to prepare dinner..."

Although there is Yang Yanqi, that girl is Yang Ye's daughter. Xiao Mo didn't dare to let her cook after the gate, it's not that Xiao Mo didn't dare, but he knew the taste of Yang Yanqi's cooking with his ass!

Like a wife, Yuniang hugged Xiao Mo's robe, smiled at Yun Xue again, and then went to the kitchen. Before leaving, she gave Xiao Mo a blushing look.

Before Xiao Mo came home, Yuniang would not do this, but today when Hu Yunxue came, Yuniang actually undressed Xiao Mo in front of her. Demonstrate to Hu Yunxue!
Xiao Mo shook his head, looked at Yuniang's back, until Yuniang disappeared into the threshold, and then asked Yun Xue: "Where's Dr. Hu?"

"He?" Hu Yunxue picked up the teacup and took a sip: "He's playing with his precious medicinal materials at home..."

After finishing speaking, Hu Yunxue naturally pinned the hair on her forehead, and then gave Xiao Mo a smile: "Thank you Ziheng, I found such a good house..."

"Thank you?" Xiao Mo looked around the hall, found no one, and sat beside Hu Yunxue, who moved unnaturally.

"Thank you?" Xiao Mo smiled badly.

Thinking of what Xiao Mo said to herself when she left Changle Town, Hu Yunxue couldn't help but blush, now that Xiao Mo looked at her with a smirk again, Hu Yunxue felt her heart pounding wildly.

"What are you doing? You have a silly smile on your face..."

giggle?The expression on Xiao Mo's face froze when he heard this, where was he smirking?Obviously a smirk... Well!

Xiao Mo knew that when picking up girls, sometimes you have to be thick-skinned. When Hu Yunxue said she was smirking, she didn't take it seriously. Instead, she leaned into Hu Yunxue's ear and said, "What do you think I want to do?"

Hu Yunxue lowered her head, her voice was inaudible: "Don't think about it, don't you have sister Yuniang?"

After saying this, Hu Yunxue's eyes turned red, remembering that she had been thinking about this unconscionable thing in Changle Town day and night, but he was happy in the county town, and even the marriage was settled, so she felt wronged, but she and Xiao Mo didn't reveal the relationship, but he just secretly promised him, so Hu Yunxue couldn't speak out what was in his heart.

However, when he left Changle Town, he clearly told himself, isn't he unable to leave me?Why did he and Yuniang make a marriage agreement as soon as they turned around?

Hu Yunxue was annoyed and didn't dare to look at Xiao Mo, but she heard Xiao Mo's faint voice: "With Yuniang, we can't forget Miss Yunxue!"

Hu Yunxue was overjoyed when he heard the words, and was about to speak when Xiao Mo continued: "Without Yunxue, who will see a doctor for me?"

Dare to feel that he was afraid that his illness would not get better, so he didn't worry about himself at all. Thinking of this, Hu Yunxue couldn't help feeling even more aggrieved, then stood up, and wanted to walk away!

However, Xiao Mo grabbed Hu Yunxue's hand tightly and held it in the palm of his hand!
　Thank you for the reward at the end of Xianyuan, and I hope everyone will continue to support it!
