The astute Wang Cheng immediately understood what was happening. He turned around and ordered his servants to go home and fetch all the gold cakes.
After making arrangements, he glanced at the county magistrate, who was motionless, and immediately stepped forward and whispered in a low voice.
"These people are working for the eldest son! If the news of being stopped is really reported back, it will definitely reach His Majesty's ears, and then it will not be stopped by a little money."
"According to the current Qin law, you will be cut in half and your family will be seated together!"
This reminder made the county magistrate break into a cold sweat.
He also quickly ordered to go back and get ten gold coins, but Wang Cheng on the side was not satisfied.
This was his only chance. Without the help of his family, he had only saved ten gold in the past few years, most of which was donated to the county magistrate.
Now we have finally encountered an opportunity. Since we have blocked all the family property, we can no longer have any scruples. We must let this person bring the message to the eldest son!
"Magistrate Guo is thinking too narrowly!"
"This person is a humble businessman, but he can get in touch with the eldest son. Doesn't it remind you of something?"
The county magistrate was stunned and didn't know what he meant.
Wang Cheng sighed and reminded in a low voice.
"Lu's Spring and Autumn Period!"
The county magistrate immediately widened his eyes.
"Prime Minister Lu?"
Wang Cheng hurriedly stopped and whispered.
"How similar, they are all investing in advance!"
The county magistrate's eyes widened, but he did not believe that King Qin Zhuangxiang did not have the qualifications of a young master!
"The competitive pressure of the young master is much less than that of him. Even if he succeeds to the throne, it is impossible for this businessman to reach the level of Prime Minister Lu!"
But at this moment, Ying Xuan was impatient, Zhang Liang was still waiting for help!
Since you are not willing to pay to avoid disaster, then wait until I come back to investigate the corruption in this county!
Without saying a word, he led hundreds of people straight into the giant sun.
Seeing this, Wang Cheng ignored the county magistrate and hurriedly followed.
While introducing Juyang County, he also explained the rebellion in Jiujiang County next door.
"Jiujiang was originally an area controlled by the three nobles of the Chu family."
“Its foundation is as deep as the influence Xiong once had.”
"Although after the imperial court took away the three major noble lineages, the branch lines all over the place became much quieter!"
"But the county magistrates sent here still have only empty names and no real power."
"All kinds of government orders are issued without the approval of the three tribes, and the people don't listen at all."
"Even the county guard only has a small say because of the strength of the imperial court and the intimidation of several large military camps around him."
Ying Xuan frowned, this is the sequelae of the First Emperor being too kind!
When the Qin Dynasty was strong, these branch nobles were very obedient, but once the Qin Dynasty fell into danger, the local nobles were all hidden dangers!
Seeing that Ying Xuan was interested, Wang Cheng led the way and continued.
"Actually, there was a plague in Jiujiang a few years ago, but it was calmed down without much movement."
"But in the past few months, for some reason, the plague has returned and is much more severe than last time."
"County officials from all over the country hurriedly used hospitals to isolate people!"
"Even this giant sun has a few incidents."
"But strangely enough, this epidemic is not like dizziness and weakness in the past. Instead, people die suddenly without warning."
"Ju Yang only died a few people and the epidemic ended!"
Ying Xuan nodded. This is true. Later generations have confirmed that the higher the mortality rate, the weaker the transmission power.
Wang Cheng was delighted to see Ying Xuan satisfied.
It seems that this person is here just for the traitor, and he must behave well.
While he continued to say that he knew the information, he led Ying Xuan to a shop.
Wang Cheng led Ying Xuan and was about to enter, but Ying Xuan hesitated.
There were no private restaurants in the Qin Dynasty, only government-run guesthouses. What was the situation of this shop called Fuyang Tower?
Seeing his confused expression, Wang Cheng could only explain in a low voice.
"It's really impossible to support these guys and stewards just by relying on official entertainment, so I made some changes privately."
"They are allowed to sell the food and dishes they purchased themselves."
"Who knew, this change would make this store make a lot of money! Hehe! This not only reduces the burden on the court, but they also have a surplus and kill two birds with one stone!"
Ying Xuan frowned and looked at this guy.
"I didn't expect this guy to have a good business acumen now!"
As Ying Xuan walked into the first floor, he saw that there were quite a few people inside.
When Wang Cheng saw that he was a regular customer, the steward immediately came to greet him personally and then invited him to the second floor.
The second floor is not a single room, but several simply partitioned areas. Although it is not soundproof, it is much better than the mess downstairs!
After a few people sat down, Wang Cheng asked the steward to vacate the backyard room and let the soldiers choose a place to rest.
"We must make more meals and prepare some millet for the soldiers to eat on the road."
"Don't forget to fill up your water bag too!"
After the arrangements were made, he explained the follow-up to Ying Xuan again.
Ying Xuan looked at Wang Cheng with a feeling of admiration.
As the youngest son of Wang Jian, one of the four famous generals, he may be poor, but as an ordinary person who wants to climb up, his tact at this moment has surpassed most people!
Even if Ying Xuan didn't meet him, I'm afraid he would be able to return to Xianyang on his own in a few years!
Turning around and looking at Ying Xuan's slightly satisfied eyes, Wang Cheng knew that he had done the right thing.
About to continue speaking.
The servants who Wang Cheng went home to collect money rushed back, and Magistrate Guo was followed behind him.
He held a small box and put it in front of Ying Xuan with a smile on his face.
"Strong man, it was all a misunderstanding! You were shocked!"
Ying Xuan was stunned for a moment, is he enlightened?
When he opened it, he found that there were thirty gold coins inside, plus the thirteen gold coins presented by Wang Cheng, which was indeed a lot for local officials!
The county magistrate saw that Ying Xuan accepted it without hesitation, with a forced smile on his face.
He doesn’t want to give it either! But I just met a group of people on the road, and they were talking about Ying Xuan's carriage.
"Blue curtain! Isn't this the specification of the car used by Jiu Qing?"
This almost frightened the county magistrate, and he immediately took out all the money from his family!
Coincidentally, at this time, footsteps came again from the second floor.
Everyone looked back.
What caught his eye was a man of about thirty years old, tall and tall, wearing a commoner's white robe, but with a gentle and elegant appearance.
Behind him were several very muscular men with beards.
As soon as the leader came up, he bowed to everyone.
"I've seen the county magistrate! The county magistrate! You all are busy first. I'll come to see you when you're done!"
Then he took people to another compartment.
Ying Xuan didn't know why, but he always felt a little awkward looking at these people in robes.
He glanced at Wang Cheng.
"they are?"
Wang Cheng glanced at it and said respectfully.
"They say they are traveling merchants traveling north. They have identity symbols, but they can't even produce any hardware!"
"It just so happens that Juyang's troops are dispatched and are under martial law. They are not allowed to leave the city without special circumstances!",
"They are staying here, pestering me every day to leave and go north!"
Wang Cheng stood up immediately when he saw Ying Xuan frowning.
"Are you uncomfortable looking at them? Then I will tell them to get out of Juyang immediately!"
As he was about to drive them away, Ying Xuan stopped him.
"It's okay! Since you can't get the hardware, just follow the rules!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an eagle roar suddenly came from the sky.
