Zhu Yixuan made a sad look, "After the three-year period of filial piety, I naturally wanted to come back to pay homage to my mother, but I didn't expect that after entering the city, I couldn't even find my way back to my home!"
Shen Yi smiled when he heard the other party's weirdness, "Then you came back at the right time. If it were a few months later, I'm afraid this city would disappear."
Zhu Yixuan gradually turned cold, "Shen Yi, my Zhu family has not agreed to evacuate here, is it possible that you can still force me?"
Shen Yi still smiled warmly, waved his hand and said: "Young Master Zhu, you are too worried! I am just a county magistrate, and I cannot wear such a big hat. Even the county magistrate, Mr. Lu, cannot force the people to spread the word, but I have to The thing about losing your head!
It's just that the county government office in the new city has been built, and I will evacuate soon. This is also the purpose of garrisoning troops. Once we leave, we will no longer be able to intervene, let alone force. ”
Zhu Yixuan laughed angrily, "You officials will leave before all the people evacuate. Shen Yi, is this how you become the county magistrate?"
Shen Yi lowered his face in dissatisfaction, "Young Master Zhu, I am an official who takes care of the emperor's salary and worries about the emperor. As an official, your majesty must be the leader. We obey the orders given by the superiors. What's wrong with that? Let me tell you that the plan to resettle the people has been implemented for a long time. Eighty-nine percent of the people agree, The remaining 10% of the people should just follow the trend and not resist and become the target of public criticism! We have done what we should do. If the remaining people are unwilling to leave, can we still force them to leave or stay? Isn't that right? ”
Zhu Yixuan didn't expect Shen Yi to say such a thing. In his memory, Shen Yi was a good old man who came from a poor background but wanted to stick to his kindness and loyalty. When did Shen Yi become so good at cheating?
He slowly lowered his eyelids, with a hint of ridicule at the corner of his mouth, turned around and strode away.
The yamen official was embarrassed, but Shen Yi asked him to open the door, walked into the yamen, drank two cups of tea and left.
Inside the Lu Mansion.
Lu Tong and Tang's Su Tai couldn't wait to ask after seeing Shen Yi.
"How is it? What's Zhu Yixuan's attitude?" This is what Lu Tong cares about most.
If Zhu Yixuan is willing to move away, it will be useless for Mr. Zhu to object.
Shen Yi shook his head and sat down, "This time I didn't tolerate him like before. I quarreled with him for a few words and turned his attention to the garrison to see how he responded."
< br>
Su Tai frowned, "Can he believe it?"
Shen Yi nodded affirmatively, "He will definitely believe it. In his eyes, I am always the mud-legged person he looks down upon. Do you think he would rather surrender to the garrison or to me?"
Three people: "."
Lu Tong gave Shen Yi a thumbs up, "Awesome! Brother Shen, why didn't I think of this! In this way, Zhu Yixuan will definitely find ways to contact the garrison leaders. It is imperative to demolish all the old city. There is only one final result. But externally, it can be said that he compromised with the garrison instead of the county government.”
"That's right! With his arrogant temperament, he will definitely say this. With this step, if the Zhu family moves away, the people who don't know what is going on will still think that the Zhu family is capable." Shen Yi said slowly.
After his analysis, Lu Tong was completely relieved.
"Hey! As a parent officer, how can I not feel a little aggrieved! I'll tell Master to get ready. We will all evacuate this month." Lu Tong ordered in a very good mood.
The servants hurried out to deliver the message.
Tang didn't understand, "Even if you have to move, there's no need to rush!"
Su Tai winked at Tang Shi, "Sister Tang, let's do the whole show. Let's move out first and let the Zhu family hold on for another two days. Zhu Yixuan's words will be more convincing, won't they?" Tang Shi suddenly understood and started to get anxious. , "No! In this case, I have to ask my servants to pack their luggage quickly. I will take away every flower and grass in the house. Those are all my hard work!"
Lu Tong: "."
The two men couldn't understand the woman's desire to drag away every brick and brick, so they quickly slipped away to the study to talk.
Su Tai followed Tang to the backyard.
Lu Xiang was very excited when he learned that they were moving to a new city and would see Shen Yuezhang from time to time.
Tang hurriedly made all the maids and women in the yard busy without any instructions.
Su Tai stayed here to help, and it was almost dark before she asked Yu Dong to take her back to Qingfengzhai.
Su Yu and Shen Yuezhang had just finished settling their accounts. Seeing Su Tai coming back, they hurriedly reported today's income.
"Xiao Tai, my father-in-law and mother-in-law said before that you are a little lucky star who brings wealth. I never took it seriously, but this time I really believed it. You see, I received more than two hundred and fifty taels yesterday, and you sold it today. More than five hundred taels, more than double!
Also, your accounting method is really good. This girl Yuezhang writes clearly and clearly, and Alan and the others can understand it! ”
She had seen the accounting clerk do the accounting in the White Mansion before. To be honest, she couldn't learn it secretly even if she wanted to, it was like it was encrypted.
Su Tai's is different. It's concise and clear, and you can understand it at a glance.
Su Tai took the praise for granted, flipping through two pages at random, and asked in surprise: "This person bought two hundred taels of things at once? Which company is it from?"
There are only a few big households in the county. Except for the Zhu family, all of them have been torn apart by the new decree. Almost all the money in their hands is used to buy shops and land. They will never spend two hundred taels in one go to buy these toiletries.
Su Yu looked at Shen Yuezhang, "I don't know if Yuezhang made this deal."
Shen Yuezhang chuckled and said: "He is a boy in his teens. He looks a little older than me. I don't know where he comes from. Judging from the way he is dressed, he looks low-key and noble. There are two powerful men behind him. Guard.
Alan and the others had never seen such a battle before, so they didn't dare to come forward to greet her. My aunt walked away for a while, so I could only come out to greet her in person wearing a veil. Mom, don't you blame me? ”
Su Tai shook her head, "It's good to move trees and move dead people, and adapt to changing circumstances."
Shen Yuezhang breathed a long sigh of relief and continued: "As soon as the other party came, he asked me to bring everything in the shop and explain the functions of the things in detail. To be honest, his eyes seemed to suspect that we had added something unknown to it. It seemed like I wasn’t happy at the moment, but I couldn’t bear to get angry.”
Chuncao said weakly: "The eldest lady is not angry, but her face is smelly, she is indifferent, and she is very cold. The slaves were scared to death at that time."
They were afraid that they would offend each other and be thrown out like chickens by two strong men.
Shen Yuezhang snorted arrogantly, "We open our doors and do business in an upright and upright manner. Why should he question my things if he wants to buy them or not!"
Su Tai laughed, "Okay, okay! As long as nothing happens, don't be so impulsive next time. You must know that in the face of absolute power, there will be no good results in head-on confrontation. You are all tired, go and rest." (End of this chapter.) )
