Looking at the old governor who was rubbing the back of his hands and smiling, Xu Yunyan couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

He jumped back quickly and said, "The governor has something to say, so don't be like this."

Xu Yunyan's unconventional action also made the governor notice the awkward look in front of him, and then he coughed and started talking seriously.

"How about Sir Xu giving us Chuzhou three thousand stones?"

"Three thousand stones? Impossible, impossible! There are only five thousand stones in total, and you want more than half of it. How is this possible? Even if I give you one stone, I feel distressed, and you actually want three thousand stones?"

When Xu Yunyan said that he felt a little distressed for being given only one stone, the Chuzhou governor immediately puffed up his beard and glared.

"I gave you so many men, so many horses, and I didn't even bother to calculate the money with you. You actually gave me a stone of salt! Isn't this a little too little?"

"It's a bit little." Xu Yunyan ignored the beard-blowing and glaring governor. Instead, he nodded and said, "How about I give you two bags of salt."

At this time, the governor was instantly confused in the wind. Looking at the leader of the Zhechong Mansion standing not far away, he waved, "How about we go back? Our Zhechong Mansion will not be used on this trip. Let Sir Xu think for himself. Method."

Seeing that the governor was about to go back, Xu Yunyan said next to him, "Master governor! Your private mobilization of the troops in Zhechong Prefecture is not so easy to solve."

When Xu Yunyan said this, the governor was not afraid. Instead, he turned to Xu Yunyan and said.

"Sir Sir Xu, this salt can't be made just by drying it casually. You have been drying this salt here for a while. What's more, as a baron, is it that the most basic salt and iron in the imperial court prohibit private use? Don’t you know how to do this?”

"Then I'll suffer some more losses."

Xu Yunyan looked at Liu Jian as if he was convinced, and then gritted his teeth and made a decision, holding out a hand as if he had suffered such a big loss.

"I'll give you this number, five stones, no more."

Although the governor has his own reasons, he also has his own reasons.

One is drying sea salt here, and the other mobilizes Zhe Chongfu troops.

Xu Yunyan stretched out a hand and laughed. When Liu Jian laughed, Liu Jian was completely messed up in the wind.

But soon Liu Jian showed in front of Xu Yunyan the bottom line of what he could do as a censor.

Liu Jian was here watching Xu Yunyan keep getting angry, and couldn't help but sit down on the floor. When Xu Yunyan thought that Liu Jing was going to fight a protracted war with him, Liu Jian started crying there.

"Why am I so pitiful? I finally managed to lighten the burden on the people of Chuzhou, but why doesn't anyone help me? What's the use of my life? I'll just go and die."

Just when Liu Jian said this, Xu Yunyan suddenly took a step forward. Liu Jian immediately stopped crying and looked at Xu Yunyan.

"Master Xu, have you thought clearly? Do you want to relieve some of the burden for the people of Chuzhou?"

Liu Jian, who originally thought there was some hope, looked at Xu Yunyan who was coming over and kept tugging at the corners of his mouth. Fortunately, his beard was long enough to hide his true appearance, otherwise Xu Yunyan might not be able to spot the flaw.

But just when he was thinking that his plan would succeed, Xu Yunyan's next action was like pouring cold water on him, making him shiver.

Xu Yunyan handed over a knife, "Look at this knife. Don't you want something, Lord Governor? I'll help you."

This is a weapon I have used on the battlefield. It is absolutely sharp for blowing hair and cutting hair. Why don't you try it? No matter if it's the neck or somewhere else, one blow will definitely cut it in half. "

As Xu Yunyan said this, Liu Jiancheng's face turned ugly again.

"Master Xu, are you seeing my joke? Don't you really want to help the people in Chuzhou? Look at them, they are still here basking in the sun on this hot day. Who doesn't want to? Do you want to go home and rest in this hot weather?"

"What's so difficult about this?"

Xu Yunyan couldn't help but laugh beside him, "Isn't this how they make a living? What's more, it's noon on the day of hoeing, and sweat drips from the soil. Isn't this the most vivid description?"

Xu Yunyan suddenly came up with these two lines of poetry, and Liu Jian was suddenly stunned: "It is noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat is dripping from the soil. Who knows the last two lines of the meal, every grain of it is hard work. Do you know Xu Ying?"

"Xu Ying? Who is Xu Ying?"

When Xu Yunyan heard this name, he stood up awkwardly. He scratched his face with one hand and looked at the distant scenery as if he had no idea who Xu Ying was.

And Liu Jian couldn't help but his eyes lit up, "I understand, I understand. At first, I said that Xu Ying was coming to Yancheng County, Chuzhou to settle down. After I came, I saw that the young talents in Yancheng could not find Xu Ying. I did not expect that Xu Ying would be here." Ying is right in front of me. If those literati know that Xu Ying is here, I don't know what kind of trouble will happen."

"Yeah! Are you threatening me?"

Xu Yunyan turned to look at Liu Jian again, and Liu Jian seemed to have discovered something, saying here, "I heard that Xu Ying is very talented, and I am even more worried about the people in the world, but I saw that Xu Ying in front of me did not have this idea. ."

When Liu Jian said this, Xu Yunyan lowered his head and sighed.

"I'll give you another bag, what do you think?"

At this moment, Liu Jian couldn't bear it anymore. "Can't you please give me a little face? Give me one bag at a time. If you have the ability, you can give me a hundred bags."

"Okay! Then I will give you one hundred bags. Now one hundred and six bags, which is one hundred and six stones. Let's just agree that there can be no more."

After Xu Yunyan finished speaking, he looked at Liu Jian like an old hen protecting his food, and Liu Jian sighed.

"I'm begging you here, Lord Xu, you have a lot of money. When you come back, can I be your governor?"

Now that he has even revealed his identity, although he is said to be scapegoated by Xu Yunyan, the threatening words are still quite serious.

"Don't threaten me with this governor here."

In the end, Xu Yunyan felt helpless and started to pull her back and forth with Liu Jian. Finally, Liu Jianmei left with a smile, leaving Xu Yunyan standing here without any sign of anger.

"You, the governor, still took advantage of me. You know I won't be so unreasonable, but you are too cruel, aren't you?"

After Xu Yunyan shouted from a distance, Liu Jian stopped and turned around to bow to Xu Yunyan.

This suddenly made Xu Yunyan even happier.
