Chapter 399 Yamen servant: Don't even bother, I'm going to start slapping my face!

These yamen servants have received the notice from above and carefully monitored every move of the prefect, everyone, etc., which shows that Master Wang doesn't like the prefect, and they naturally don't take the prefect seriously.

The yamen servant was unhappy, so he made up his mind to take a detour after leaving the city, and walk around the new city to open the eyes of these self-righteous frogs in the well.

Originally, to go to Wang Xuan's mansion, just follow the main road, but halfway the yamen servant turned a corner and went to the residential area. When he got here, the yamen servant slowed down deliberately to let the two bumpkins take a good look at it from the car window. .

really……

"Hey, what kind of house is this? Why is it so tall, as if there are many people living there?"

The exclamation of the new magistrate Xu Yangqiu came from the carriage, and the yamen servant who was driving the carriage smiled without making a sound, and heard the master inside say: "I have never seen such a square building before, could it be some kind of rich man's mansion? Quick, sir!" Look, there are soldiers guarding the gate, could it be a barracks?"

"It can't be a military camp. It's not like you don't know what the guard looks like. How can you have the money to do this!" Xu Yangqiu said affirmatively, and then he was puzzled: "No, it looks so big at first glance, so How many people do you need to live in so many buildings? And the clothes don’t look like rich households, could they all be servants? But, what kind of rich family needs so many servants?”

"Stop!" The master knocked on the front window and shouted, and when the carriage stopped, the master and the magistrate got out of the car and watched carefully, and couldn't help asking the yamen servant beside him: "Boss, what is this place? What is this building for, why are there so many people?"

"Here, the two masters are from the prosperous places in the south of the Yangtze River. I don't know that things in a small place like ours are normal." "This is where some ordinary people who work in the new city live. The cheapest masonry houses are definitely not as good as those in the affluent Jiangnan. I heard that the people in Jiangnan all live in pavilions!"

"What, for the common people?" Xu Yangqiu's jaw almost dropped when he heard this, he couldn't believe that when those poor mud legs who couldn't even wear their pants could live in such a good masonry structure house up!

He has also been a local county magistrate, so he naturally knows what kind of houses the common people should live in, and they are basically dilapidated thatched houses.

But the people here can live in brick and stone buildings?

We must know that the cost of masonry structures is very high, and it is impossible for rich landlords to build them.

When did common people with mud legs become so rich!
"This is impossible, this... this... how much does it cost, how can those grassroots afford to live, and there are soldiers guarding it." The master next to him almost jumped up. It didn't say that there was money to build a house with pure masonry structure!

"ε=(ο｀*))) Alas!" The yamen servant came directly to a 'Tactical Hou Yang', raised his hand, and said indifferently: "It's all small money, nothing more than three or fifty taels of silver, it's all It was built for them by Master Wang, and some money is paid back every year, and it will be finished in ten or eight years."

"Three 50 taels, a small amount of money!" Damn it, the master almost choked to death, open your dog eyes and see, which mud-legged family in the whole world can live in a house worth 50 taels of silver!

The new magistrate also looked confused. When did this Fujianese become so rich?
"It's nothing, it's nothing, this is a small rural place, it's definitely incomparable with the rich and prosperous Jiangnan, just this, it can't catch up with the level of other small counties!" The yamen servant shook his head and said, looking like I Very ordinary, definitely not as good as yours, but the upturned mouth corners and contemptuous eyes that cannot be concealed directly betrayed him.

Fuck!
The faces of the magistrate and the master suddenly turned red. This is a slap in the face, and the slap was loud. When the two said this, they were really not afraid that the yamen servant would hear it. For sure, the two didn't think there would be any surprises at all.

Throughout the ages, it is simply impossible for one person to build a city!
In other words, low-level county towns have high regard for Wang Xuan, but this was deliberately raised to a higher level because they were afraid that it would sound bad to Wang Xuan's ears.

It's just that the new city has not been entered yet, and the residential area of ​​ordinary people outside has reached such a level, which really makes the two feel ashamed.

The master glanced at Xu Yangqiu out of the corner of his eye, and found that the flesh on the magistrate's face was trembling. The majestic fourth-rank official was ridiculed by a low-level official below. To throw people to death!
The master coughed dryly twice, wanting to change the subject, otherwise, he was afraid that the magistrate would be pissed off, and just about to say something, when the yamen servant raised his hand again, the master thumped in his heart and secretly screamed that it was not good.

"I can't, I can't, it's a small rampant, how can it compare with the counties in the south of the Yangtze River." The yamen servant deliberately pulled a long tune, then shook his head, waved his hand, and mumbled his eyes, "At most, only one village !"

Hearing "choke...", the magistrate almost didn't come up in a breath, his body shook a few times, the master quickly reached out to help, then turned around and glared at the yamen servant, ready to reprimand him.

"I understand, I understand, let's go now, it won't be good to be late for a while, it seems that the gentlemen are very rude." After finishing speaking, the yamen servant turned around and got on the driving seat, and he didn't forget to turn around and say hello, "Master Zhifu ,Get in the car!"

"Huh~huh~huh~" Xu Yangqiu took a few breaths, he could tell that this yamen servant belonged to Wang Xuan, and he didn't take him seriously at all.

In other words, he didn't have any respect for him at all, just by looking at the attitude of this yamen servant, he knew what the other people in the yamen would be like.

His background is strong enough, even if he loses his job as a yamen servant, he is not afraid that he will not be able to find a job.

Of course, he didn't think about firing this yamen servant, even if it was someone else, it would still be like this, unless...he could get Wang Xuan's approval.

Thinking that he would be an official in this environment for more than three years in the future, he felt that life would be worse than death. How can he live such a f*cking life!

The yamen servant didn't tease the magistrate any more, of course, it wasn't that he didn't dare, but that he was really afraid of delaying the time, if he made Mr. Wang wait too long, it would be bad for himself.

Although this is also to vent anger on Mr. Wang's face, but, after all, he made up his own mind. If Mr. Wang didn't take such a thing with his eyelids at all, then his flattery will be slapped on the horse's leg.

Moreover, this is also a possibility, after all, who is Mr. Wang targeting, either the royal descendants of the Zhu family, or the seven major families of Fujian, or a small magistrate, even if he is asked to 'suicide' tomorrow, they These people will not be surprised.

The yamen servant flirted with a man next to him, then he swung his whip and drove the carriage towards Wang Xuan's mansion.

And that man was responsible for quickly spreading the news, but the higher-ups had notified him. You must know the prefect's every move and every word and deed.

The news here was transmitted very quickly, and the carriage was still far away, so Wang Xuan received the news.

Xu Yangqiu would not care about Wang Xuan's level and this kind of stomach, but he just turned his head and said, "Prepare the car, let's go to the shipyard and see how the 2000-ton ship is being built."

Yue Buqun next to him was taken aback for a moment, and he couldn't help sighing inwardly, he still needs to pay more attention to his words and deeds on weekdays, our master, his heart is too big!

I don't know how the new magistrate offended Mr. Wang, it's not enough to be hurt by the yamen servant, this master has to do it himself.

He was here today to report on the results of the last two months, just in time for such an event.

In the past two months, the various classics of Taoism will definitely not be finished. Even though Wang Xuan sent him a lot of manpower to assist him, but only the elementary and intermediate textbooks are still done. Yes, they sort it out and summarize it.

The printing factory has finished publishing, and more than 100 scholars and more than 500 apprentices have been recruited. It only needs to be trained for another month. By then, the new Taoist temple has almost been built, and it can directly start receiving believers.

A group of people went directly from the mansion to the shipyard. After a while, the magistrate's carriage arrived at the gate of the palace.

Getting off the car, Xu Yangqiu couldn't help looking up at the gate of Wang Xuan's mansion, and then he was taken aback. The courtyard wall alone was two feet (six meters) high, covered with hideous spikes, although the thickness couldn't be clearly seen However, looking at the taller towers around and the soldiers patrolling back and forth on the wall, one can see that the thickness of the wall is absolutely astonishing.

Looking at the gate, it does not look like the vermilion wooden gate of a rich family in the traditional sense, but an all-black, all-iron gate that reflects the metallic luster. Just this gate, ordinary battering rams may not be able to smash it open!
What is this for? Looking at the defense alone, it is even more exaggerated than the palace. After all, the walls of the palace are only ten feet high.

He took a deep breath in his heart, damn it, don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts calling the door, if you are so strict, you must have done too many unreasonable things.

The greeting card was handed in yesterday, logically speaking, they should open the door to welcome them when they arrive, but the magistrate and master insisted on standing at the door for half a cup of tea, and there was no one to greet them. Xu Yangqiu scolded Wang Xuan in his heart for being uneducated and not a son of man!
The master didn't expect this kind of situation to happen, yesterday all the invitations were accepted, why did he still shut the door today, he didn't dare to let the magistrate wait like this, so he hurriedly walked two steps to the front of the steps.

"Crack!" "Crack!" Two sounds, the guard at the door drew his knife and stopped in front of the master with a swipe. He was so scared that he took three steps back and almost didn't fall to the ground.

(Thank you, Mr. Kaige, for the reward! There are ten thousand changes today, and there will be another chapter after [-] o'clock in the morning.)
