Xu Yue stared at the eyes one after another and couldn't help but sigh.
He also wanted to have a good relationship in his life, but there was a tigress at home.
He looked at Chunxiang's expectant eyes and shook his head: "Let me think about it."
When Chunxiang heard this, she was so wet that she hurriedly covered her face.
Xie Lingmo looked at the official in a daze, ignoring the move he had just learned.
"Officer, what are you thinking about?" She asked in a deep voice, feeling secretly angry.
After saying that, she waved her thick hand in front of Xu Yue.
When Xu Yue saw her thick hands and thought of Chunxiang's slender hands, he felt sick in his heart.
But hearing her soft voice made me feel better, and she woke up from Chunxiang's addiction.
Xu Yue let himself take a sip of tea to force himself to calm down.
She must not let her discover his intentions. Xu Yue thought for a while and said: "I am thinking about how to make Lingquan County achieve political results."
Hearing Xu Yue talk about his political achievements, Xie Lingmo suddenly became interested.
She took off her apron and looked at the newspaper on the coffee table.
Xie Lingmo can read up to 3,000 words and is considered a talented woman.
In addition, her family is well off, so she has high requirements for officials and has high standards.
She read the "Da Song Zhong Hua Bao" and the "Da Song Li Bao" at the same time, hoping to find useful information.
"Don't look at those, it's useless. I've looked at these over and over again, but there's no gain." Xu Yue wanted this woman to use her talents and give him some more advice, but he didn't expect that she had no solution, so he couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing what Xu Yue said, Xie Lingmo also felt a little embarrassed and did not help the officials.
She thought for a while and comforted Xu Yue: "Official, you should feel very lucky. You occupy one of the two best counties in Chengdu Prefecture. You should be content."
"Contented, of course contented, but officials also want political achievements, how can they be contented?" Xu Yue took a sip of tea, thinking, and shook his head sadly.
Xie Lingmo looked at the newspaper and said: "Jintang County and Lingquan County have taken up a lot of pages in the Song Dynasty China News recently. It seems that these two counties are indeed good in the whole of Sichuan."
"That's natural. The two counties used to be hells on earth, but now they have become the so-called paradise on earth. Zhao Ping is certainly worthy of bragging about his own political achievements." Xu Yue felt a little uncomfortable when he heard that his wife was obsessed with Zhao Ping's political achievements. Comfortable, I couldn't help but refute.
Of course Xie Lingmo knows what kind of virtue he has as an official.
While reading the "Da Song Zhonghua News", she compared the differences between the two counties and said, "Official, aren't you thinking about political achievements? How about comparing the two counties?"
"I have to admit that Zhao Ping did manage to turn the original hell on earth into a paradise on earth." Xu Yue thought for a while and expressed his opinion. "However, Jintang County started early, and of course the situation is more fierce. Lingquan County started late, and of course there are shortcomings with Jintang County."
"Then it's okay. Compared with Jintang County, Lingquan County has shortcomings, which can be made up for by officials. This is the official's achievements." Xie Lingmo had an idea and reminded Xu Yue.
While Xu Yue drank tea, he thought hard about the differences between the two counties.
He couldn't help but patted the coffee table and shouted angrily: "This Zhao Ping is so outrageous. Why should Zhaojiazhuang be located in Jintang County and why not in Lingquan County? As long as Zhaojiazhuang is moved to Lingquan County, the workshop will also be moved. Come here, won’t the taxes in Lingquan County go up?”
"Official, this is difficult to do. After all, Zhaojiazhuang's base in Chengdu is in Jintang County. I heard that the little saint was stationed in Jintang County specifically to prevent the invasion of barbarians." Xie Lingmo was not like Xu Yue. Deep down in his heart, he still I respect him very much, so I call him the Little Saint.
Hearing Xie Lingmo call Zhao Ping this way, Xu Yue felt a little unhappy.
He thought for a while and then changed his tone: "Jintang County was also created by the Little Saint, and Lingquan County was also created by the Little Saint. Anyway, they are all his roots, so we can't favor one over the other."
Xie Lingmo was able to express Xu Yue's resentment towards Zhao Ping, becoming a little saint when needed and Zhao Ping when not needed.
"Actually, the little saint has invested a lot in Lingquan County. There is a fairy cement workshop, a demon taro workshop, and a loquat wine workshop." Xie Lingmo counted on his fingers, "If I want the little saint to invest more, temporarily There is no such possibility."
When Xu Yue heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little downcast. He took a big sip of tea and placed the tea cup heavily on the coffee table, making a banging sound.
"This won't work, that won't work either, what should I do now?" He looked at Xie Lingmo reluctantly, wiped his forehead, and sounded obviously disappointed.
"I remember, isn't there one less road from Lingquan County to Chengdu than from Jintang County? It's better to ask for help than to ask for yourself. As long as the officials build this one road, won't their political achievements come?" Xie Lingmo repeatedly said in batches The news from Lingquan County and Jintang County suddenly came to a conclusion.
Xu Yue patted the table and couldn't help being overjoyed. He stood up and patted his head: "Madam is right, but this requires money. Chidao is not an ordinary road and requires a lot of money."
After talking about it, Xu Yue couldn't help but sit down again.
"What's so difficult about this? Building roads and bridges is a matter of accumulating good deeds." Xie Lingmo smiled faintly and looked at Xu Yue. "The official is the magistrate of the county, and he has the great responsibility of accumulating good deeds, so raising funds is a matter of course."
When Xie Lingmo said this, he stopped talking.
After all, she only has the right to make suggestions, and it’s up to Xu Yue to decide.
"What if the funds are not enough?" Xu Yue's eyes flashed when he heard this, and his brows suddenly knitted together.
When Xie Lingmo heard this, he knew that Xu Yue was tempted: "Officials, you can collect corvees."
"Thank you, Madam." Xu Yue made up his mind at this time and bowed deeply to Madam.
Xie Lingmo smiled slightly and hurriedly returned the courtesy: "Officials are polite, husband and wife are one."
"Guanren, we have to start raising money from Guanren." At this point, Xie Lingmo looked at the golden mouse on the coffee table and couldn't help but sigh.
Xu Yue didn't know why Xie Lingmo sighed. He was still thinking about what the other party said.
Xu Yue thought for a while and nodded: "Of course, I will deduct the money tomorrow."
"As always, the officials have the nerve to take action." Xie Lingmo shook his head and dismissed it.
Xu Yue couldn't help but be stunned and found it difficult to understand: "The salary of an official in the past month was only seven or eight Guanhuizi."
"That's how officials used their previous vision, but Lingquan County is far more wealthy than Ba County." Although Xie Lingmo was reluctant to part with it, he still wanted to convince Xu Yue.
Xu Yue reluctantly took his eyes back from the Golden Rat and looked at Xie Lingmo: "How much do you want to donate? Madam."
"If you don't want to donate, don't donate. If you want to donate, donate more, one hundred taels of silver." Xie Lingmo also looked away from the golden rat and reluctantly took it back.
Xu Yue couldn't believe his ears and couldn't help but ask: "Madam, I don't have that much income as an official in a year? Doesn't it mean that the whole family doesn't eat or drink from the northwest wind?"
"Officials, be willing to give up, be willing to give up, and you will get something if you give up. The official's annual salary does not even have a hundred taels of silver, so he is willing to donate money, which shows that the official is sincere, truly loves the people like his son, and truly accumulates good deeds for building roads. Accumulating virtue." Xie Lingmo couldn't help but point Xu Yue's forehead with his finger.
Xu Yue looked at the golden mouse on the coffee table and couldn't help but sigh: "Poor my little golden mouse, he went out like this before he was warmed up."
"Idiot, this is just outing, not in yet." Xie Lingmo couldn't help but give Xu Yue a roll of his eyes, and lightly tapped Xu Yue's forehead with his finger.
Xu Yue resisted the nausea in his heart, grabbed Xie Lingmo's thick hand, stroked it and asked: "Madam, She has already gone out, how can I get it?"
"Idiot, you are the county magistrate. Didn't you arrange the road construction or some other arrangement?" Xie Lingmo couldn't help but give Xu Yue a rollicking look, pulled out his fingers, and lightly tapped the other person's forehead.
Xu Yue couldn't help but suddenly realized that in the past, he was just the county magistrate in Ba County and had to listen to the county magistrate's arrangements in everything.
Now Lingquan County is different. He is the parent official of a county, and the county magistrate, county captain, and chief registrar below must obey his arrangements.
Zui Chunfeng Tea House.
Zhang San and Li Si have not come to drink tea, now it is Wang Liu and Liu Qi.
Zhang San and Li Si were afraid that the workshop would not be profitable, so they no longer dared to drink tea here.
But Wang Liu and Liu Qi had no such idea, as if they came here to drink tea after get off work.
They think they should come here to relax after a hard day.
Besides, this is not a brothel, and the consumption is not high.
Not only can you relax, but you can also make tea friends, so why not?
While Wang Liu was drinking tea, he quietly asked Liu Qi: "Qi Lang, do you know that a big event is going to happen in Lingquan County?"
"Liu Lang, are you bragging again? There's nothing big happening in Lingquan County that I don't know about." Liu Qi answered casually while drinking tea leisurely.
This Wang Liu likes to talk a lot, and boasts all over the place, and is often laughed at by others.
"It's true this time. I heard that a Chi Road to Chengdu will be built." Wang Liu said seriously.
Liu Qi couldn't believe his ears: "Qin Shihuang used the whole country to build a galloping road. Is Xu Zhi County even more powerful than Qin Shihuang?"
"Qin Shihuang? Didn't the little sage also build a galloping road between Jintang County and Chengdu?" When he said this, Wang Liu suddenly beamed, "I heard that the galloping road goes on separate sides and will not collide with each other. It is as flat as water and is as smooth as water. Qin Shihuang's Chi Dao is even more powerful."
"The little sage is rich in the world, so he can build Chidao in Jintang County." Liu Qi shook his head, "Why didn't the little sage build a chidao in Lingquan County? Didn't he want to build it? The little sage still has property. No, it’s because the expenses are too high. Where can Xuzhi County find this money? Did it fall from the sky?"
Wang Liu stared at Liu Qi, his face red and thick-necked with anger: "The little sage can build a galloping road, why can't this county? Don't you want to use this kind of galloping road?"
"Of course I want to use this kind of Chidao, but it's not realistic yet. The little saint has property here, and when he has money in the future, he will naturally build it." Liu Qi thought for a while and comforted himself.
Wang Liu no longer argued with him about Chidao in this county, but began to show off his knowledge: "Do you know where Chidao came from?"
"This, this, I don't know, please tell Liu Lang." Liu Qi bowed respectfully.
"The Chidao was only started to be built by Qin Shihuang, and this Chidao is the emperor's exclusive lane. The ministers, common people, and even the emperor's relatives have no right to walk on it." When Wang Liu said this, he was stunned when he saw the other party. With an expression on his face, he expressed his opinion somewhat triumphantly, "And do you know why Qin Shihuang is called a tyrant?"
"Tyrant, don't you know this?" Liu Qi felt a little ashamed that he didn't even know this. He cupped his hands and said, "I hope you can give me some advice."
Seeing Liu Qi's pious look, Wang Liu felt extremely satisfied.
He sipped the tea slowly and looked at Liu Qi with an enigmatic look: "Because Qin Shihuang liked to abuse people's power, he was called a tyrant. Meng Jiangnu asked where the Great Wall came from, not because it reflected Qin Shihuang. Think about it, No matter how many tears Meng Jiangnu sheds, can she cry down the Great Wall? It's simply impossible."
"But the old man said it was true. Otherwise, how could Meng Jiangnu cry at the Great Wall?" Liu Qi didn't believe it was false at all.
Wang Liu wanted to throw the tea cup at the other party, but thought for a while and finally held back: "That's because the literati hated Qin Shihuang, so they made up the story that Meng Jiangnu cried down the Great Wall. If Meng Jiangnu can cry down the Great Wall, then your family can try it and see if it can Do you want to cry down the county wall? If you can cry down the city wall, all my money will be yours."
"This is true, this is true. It should be a legend fabricated by literati." Liu Qi felt embarrassed after hearing Wang Liu's words.
Liu Qi thought for a while and frowned: "Xuzhi County wants to build Chi Road. Isn't there anyone who opposes it?"
"Of course there were objections. Cheng County Cheng and Director Li strongly opposed it. The reason is that Chidao must be built, but the time has not yet arrived. However, Xuzhi County has the support of a Director, and since he is the county magistrate, of course it was implemented in the end." Wang Liu shook his head and couldn't help but sigh.
Liu Qi shook his head and felt incredible: "Chidao is not an ordinary road. It is extremely expensive. Even the little saint finds it unbearable. Where does the money come from?"
