Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 542 542: It’s hard to get off the tiger [please vote]

Businessmen don't offend people easily and don't make friends easily, so the relationship between Xu Jie and Zhao Feng is not that good. During the two years when Zhao Feng repaid his favor to Shen Tang, the two of them had more interactions. Zhao Feng often entrusted Xu Jie to take care of his children.

Xu Jie has been doing very well in the past two years.

Seeing that it was him, Zhao Feng's cold face became a little warmer, and he took the initiative to say hello. Seeing that Xu Jie's face was not friendly, he asked with concern, "What's going on?" Xu Jie turned his head, glanced at the lord's mansion with his peripheral vision, frowned and sighed.

Zhao Feng noticed his little movement.

He immediately smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I had a drink and chat with Wen Zhu. There are still a few jars of fine wine at home. Why don't you go to the humble house and have a drink?"

Xu Jie also needs a drink to relieve his worries.

He nodded and agreed.

Zhao's house, main hall.

Although members of the non-Tianhai family, headed by Qin Li and Zhao Feng, experienced ostracism in the workplace, in the final analysis it was due to personal conflicts between their subordinates. As the lord, Wu Xian never treats those who work for him financially and materially, and is very generous.

In the two years since Zhao Feng was away from Tianhai, the family and the children in the family lived well, with rewards for the four seasons and eight festivals, and the house was repaired several times.

but--

A good living environment cannot relieve depression.

Xu Jie and Xu Jie each have their own thoughts.

Zhao ordered his servants to go to the wine cellar and bring two jars of fine wine.

Opening the red cloth wine seal, the aroma of wine comes out.

Xu Jie sniffed lightly and joked: "Shen Jun is quite interesting. The wine presented to Dayi is actually not adulterated at all."

Zhao Feng was also teased so much that he couldn't hold back.

He later learned that the fine wine Shen Tang sold to various places in Tianhai was mixed with water, and then in the hands of the profiteer Xu Jie, it turned into water mixed with wine. Zhao Fengchu felt bad at first, but then he thought about it, it would be hard to say whether one of them would be willing to fight and the other to suffer.

This time I came back and encountered workplace bullying...

Zhao Feng felt that they only deserved to drink water and wine.

"It's a pity that one cup of wine is missing one cup."

His mouth has been tricked.

In the past, I could drink a lot of low-quality and turbid wine, and I wasn't picky about my diet. However, this time I came back and felt like I couldn't enjoy anything. I thought the wine stored in the wine cellar was too low-quality, and the chef's skills at home were too rough, but the earthen bed at home was still somewhat familiar.

Xu Jie said casually: "Go back and buy some from Mr. Shen."

He didn't ask for it directly. In fact, with Shen Jun's enthusiastic and generous temperament, Zhao Feng could ask for wine as soon as he opened his mouth without giving money.

Zhao Feng said half-truthfully: "I don't have money, so I can't afford to drink."

After drinking the whole bowl in one gulp, he asked Xu Jie.

"Just now I saw that the annotation seems to be worried, but encountered something difficult?" Zhao Feng was unwilling to talk more about his own affairs, so he changed the topic to Xu Jie, "Although Feng is a soft-spoken man and can't help, but he gave birth to twins. Ears, can listen to what you have to say.”

"Dayi has been very slippery in the past two years." Xu Jie smiled and shook his head. The Zhao Feng in the past would never have been able to say such teasing words. After laughing, his eyebrows were stained with sadness again, and he said seriously, "It's not that the matter is difficult, it's I feel uncomfortable in my heart."

Zhao Feng frowned when he heard this.

He has been actively getting to know Tianhai since he came back.

Naturally, I also heard about Xu Jie's difficulties.

He suppressed his smile and looked serious as he listened carefully to what Xu Jie confided while drinking. He analyzed: "Article note, I am afraid that the Lord is deliberately conniving at this matter..."

Xu Jie's face darkened: "I know."

Heyin was originally a poor place with little to offer.

However, after two years of investment in management regardless of cost, Shentang has become full of vitality and is thriving, and every household still has a year or two of surplus food. Shen Tang also beat gongs and drums to recruit refugees and open up wasteland for management. When the refugees came, they would have land to plant and food to eat.

In order to increase the effect, they also engage in a "pyramid marketing model" - this term is what Xu Jie saw in Shen Tang's work diary - the specific operation method is that a registered commoner recruits an unregistered commoner to settle in Heyin, and the former can get a bucket of new rice. .

The event is limited but not limited.

The number of registered households exceeded 80,000 in one fell swoop.

Nowadays, wherever you go you can see the smoke coming from cooking stoves.

Xu Jie knew that Shen Tang governed He Yin very well, but only after reading the large amount of documents and data left by Shen Tang's team did he know exactly how well he did. Eighty thousand households, even if the proportion of young and strong is not high, they can still gather a considerable number of soldiers and horses.

After a few years, the registered child grew up...

Xu Jie also vaguely discovered that Shen Tang had left behind a grand gesture. Maybe he didn't have time to destroy the documents, or maybe he didn't want to destroy them at all - Shen Tang had made excuses for villagers to conduct offensive and defensive drills with each other as a unit!

As He Yin's neighbor, Tian Hai was completely unaware.

Xu Jie also discovered it accidentally after taking office.

After some careful investigation——

He found that these villagers had surprisingly similar ideas.

Li Zheng, who was full of gangsterism, spoke confidently: "We have nowhere else to go except He Yin. If a bad guy comes, how can he not kill his ancestors for eighteen generations?" If one person can't do it, just two people; if two people can't do it, just one Murakami! 】

【Whoever steals our food, we will fight to the death! 】

【Go somewhere else? You don't even have to chew the grass roots. 】

Not a village thinks so!

Everyone in Heyin County thinks so!

Occasionally, you can see adults teaching children how to form a group of three, with one person attacking and two people supporting and assisting. At first glance, it seemed like he was having fun, but combined with the notes left by Shen Tang, Xu Jie's mood was as complicated as a ball of wool that he couldn't sort out.

If Shen Jun had not been reassigned, according to this trend, every county bordering Heyin would be in bad luck in the next two years.

Because the soldiers and horses that He Yin can use are not only the young and strong, but also the 80,000 households of common people who are ready to defend the fields and food!

Taking advantage of his surprise and unpreparedness, Tianhai was unprepared and was afraid that he would not be the first to bear the brunt and be set up as a role model.

Therefore, Xu Jie is very clear.

He Yin is fatter than the wealthy gentry in Tianhai imagined.

Zhao Feng asked him: "What are your plans?"

Let the protagonist Wu Xian intervene in Ha Yin?

In doing so, I was sorry to Wu Xian but sorry to Shen Tang.

Wu Xian was kind to Xu Jie, but this kind of kindness was mutual help and mutual benefit. Xu Jie provided him with food, grass and money for his development. Wu Xian promoted the Xu family's status in Tianhai and enjoyed various invisible benefits. And Shen Tang can be called "the kindness of knowing and encountering" Xu Jie.

Because of the rule that merchants were not allowed to enter the officialdom, although Xu Jie served under Wu Xian's account, he was still considered a white man in the royal court.

When Shen Tang was demoted, her first reaction was to recommend Xu Jie, a businessman, as the head of a county. This was also one of the conditions for her willingness to be demoted! Only then did Wang Ting agree.

The key is that Shen Tang is not seeking any benefits.

The grace of knowing and encountering, the grace of promotion.

For Xu Jie, who has been subject to invisible discrimination since he was ignorant, the feeling is beyond words!

If Xu Jieruo indulges Wu Xian and gives up the real power of Heyin, he will only be a nominal governor of Heyin. Shen Tang may choose to understand his difficulties, but can Xu Jie himself be open to it? This is no different from stabbing Shen Tang in the back.

How can this be done?

Xu Jie smiled bitterly: "...Now it's hard to get off the tiger... I just hope I can have both. Xu Wenzhu has always been a subordinate of the lord, and this has never changed. Others..."

Wu Xian can ask for money or food. The Xu family can afford it due to its great business, but He Yin cannot be asked for it. This is the bottom line!

\\( ̄︶ ̄*\\))

Tang Mei was actually very serious about brushing up on Xu Jie's favorability, and she also prescribed the right medicine. A flat recommendation was the last wave of critical blows. It's just that he didn't come openly, even Xu Jie himself didn't know.
