Yan Yu originally wanted to ride a donkey, but her master felt sorry for her and would not allow her, so she had to squeeze into the small carriage with her master and father.

The donkey was tied to the cart and ran along with it. The speed was not fast, much slower than when she came.

Yan Yu likes to be so wobbly and drowsy at first, but this carriage can't absorb the shock, and the bumps along the way make him more energetic the more he sits.

In the car, Shigong explained the reason for going to Fucheng.

"...Didn't you read it all when you went to the countryside to collect grain? The grain tax in Fucheng is even worse. The over-collected grain is not in the account and will be disposed of privately." When Mr. Tian talked about this matter The tone is very flat.

"Filled in your own pocket?" Yan Lao Er asked.

Mr. Tian said calmly: "Guanzhou is a good place. It only grows one season of grain a year. It has a small population and a lot of wasteland. The annual grain tax collected is limited, which is far worse than other big prefectures.

Do you still remember that I once told you that if you don’t compete for the first place this year, there are ways to make Fucheng less expensive? "

Second Yan: "Remember."

In the barn that day, facing the full warehouse of grain, the happy face of the teacher is still in front of my eyes.

"There is surplus food in Fucheng, but I am short of food, so I just buy it." This is the inspiration that Mr. Tian got from Mr. Yan.

He was never a pedantic person.

Doing things is more about results.

"Because it is a private resale, the price will definitely be lowered by the grain dealer. The teacher originally wanted to buy it at a slightly higher price. He can not only buy the grain below the market price, but also take the opportunity to prevent the other party from embarrassing the tiger to pay the grain.

The three border towns of Huju, Longxing, and Fengming have far less grain production than Gufeng and Changping. If we follow this method, we will spend less. For them, raising the price of grain will make more profits. "

Both Yan Laoer and Yan Yu's father and daughter are quick to settle accounts.

I understood it in an instant.

Leaving aside the right and wrong of those people stealing and selling food, from the perspective of the transaction itself, it is a win-win situation, and everyone is happy.

Huju can save some money when paying grain, and buy grain at a low price.

Although those people took less money from Huju, the unit price of food has risen.

Another advantage is that when the food is in the hands of Hu Ju, as Mr. Tian does, if the people are short of food, it is very likely that they will pay at a flat rate, or even at a loss.

Much stronger than in the hands of grain merchants.

"The yamen treasury doesn't say it's empty now, but it's almost the same. I can't think about it, but I still want to buy this grain. During this trip to Fucheng, you and I will split up and find a way to raise money for the teacher. You and them Contact one or two, if you can get it at the original price, that's the best, if not, it's acceptable to add some less." Master Tian said.

Second Yan: "Teacher, can I go? They must be very careful about such a secret matter. What if they don't sell me?"

This kind of business must be backed by both parties. Although he is a stranger, but he came with the teacher, he probably can't hide it. If people find out, he might not dare to sell it.

"Hu Ju was robbed of the barn this year, and everyone in Guanzhou knows it. If they don't sell it, they will stab their business in front of the prince as a teacher, and see who has no face!" Mr. Tian said fiercely.

...

When approaching Dashiqiao, Yan Yu rode a donkey home first.

Tell her mother that she will definitely not be able to come back tonight when she went to Fucheng with her master and father, and it is hard to say even tomorrow night.

Li Xuemei understood the reason, thought about it, and gave fifty taels to her daughter.

"This is the fifty taels your father left with me. You bring it to your father. If your master can't make up the money, let him figure it out."

Seeing her daughter hesitantly accepting the money and leaving the hospital on her donkey, Li Xuemei looked away from the window, added a piece of clothing for herself, picked up the land deed, and walked slowly towards Qi's house.

The yard of the Qi family is always busy.

"Miss Yan Er." Seeing her coming, old man Kang was inexplicably surprised, and greeted her with the things in his hand.

"The old man has changed it, can the second lady Yan see it?"

It is said nail mold.

Li Xuemei's eyes burst out with joy.

While listening to the other party's explanation of the beauty, while carefully comparing them one by one.

"Well done, thank you for your hard work."

He is a capable old man.

"I can't wait for Mrs. Yan to say your name, and I will be taken care of by your village. I will do my best, and I will do my best." Old man Kang smiled until the wrinkles on his face bloomed.

...

Yan Yu caught up with the carriage, but did not go back into the carriage, maintaining the state of following outside.

Master Tian saw that the child really didn't want to sit in the car, so he gave up, and only told her to wrap herself up well, so as not to blow the cool breeze.

The group finally arrived at Yongning City.

The groom negotiated with the officials guarding the city, Mr. Tian opened the curtain, and nodded to the inspectors outside, who immediately let them go when they saw the official robe.

Elder Tian was still in the mood to laugh at this moment: "Look at the official robes of the teacher that make you toss, you can see it from the front, and there is a big hole in the back."

He turned his back to show Yan Laoer.

Yan Laoer was extremely embarrassed, and argued strongly: "Didn't the situation be critical at that time, I didn't expect this."

Master Tian laughed: "I don't blame you for being a teacher."

"I'll buy you a new one in the future." Yan Laoer added.

"No, this one is fine." Grandpa Tian smiled meaningfully: "No matter who it is, just take a look at it, and you will know that the master is the master of the tiger, and you can't fake it."

Mr. Tian entered the city and first found an inn to stay.

He took Yan Laoer with him, not only to teach him his homework, but also these rules of conduct.

After settling down, he said to him: "It's getting late today, go to the government office tomorrow morning, and then go to the palace, it will take half a day, pay more attention when you go to the government office, see if you can talk to anyone. "

Second Yan asked: "Teacher, why don't we go to the palace first?"

Mr. Tian shook his head: "Guanzhou is a fiefdom of the King of England, but as a teacher, he is an official appointed by the imperial court first, and then a subordinate of the King of England. Therefore, we must first go to the government office to meet the government official."

"Let Xiao Er prepare hot water for the teacher to take a bath later." Elder Tian was afraid that his disciple would go in without knowing it, and explained: "When you meet the superior and the prince, you need to be well-groomed, and you will also go back to the room to wash later. "

"Teacher, why do we live in the inn?" Yan Laoer actually wanted to ask, why didn't he go home? Didn't it say that the teacher's wife is in Fucheng?

"This time I came here for official business, first public and then private." Mr. Tian said briefly.

Yan Laoer is really convinced, is he so formalistic? You obviously have a home, but you can't go back? Living in an inn is a waste of money, alas!

Back in the room, his daughter was looking down through the window.

"What are you looking at?"

Yan Yu closed the window in disappointment.

"I want to see if there is a night market or something."

"Have it?"

"No, the hawkers are closing their stalls, and the shops are also boarded up."

"Are you hungry? Let the store get you some food first, let's fill up our stomachs." Second Yan said.

Yan Yu nodded and asked him: "Father, why do you want to stay in a hotel? It's a waste. It's better to stay at our house. Get up early and save money without delaying anything."

Yan Lao Er said what Master Tian said just now.

Yan Yu pouted again and again, frowned and said, "Why does it feel like Master is planning something?"

The first update today, and the second update will be late. If you get sleepy later, Zhai Zhai will sleep, and you should be able to update before noon tomorrow~( # ^.^ # )~
