Transmigrated into a corrupt female county magistrate, defied fate and changed her life in a deserte
Chapter 109 Mahjong Business
"No need! Let's go back to the county first and talk about the official land later!"
How can she take care of her official land now?
I don’t know how far the border where the war is going to take place is from Jingyang County, and whether it will be affected by the war?
Thinking of this, Song Jinshu sighed heavily, lifted the curtain and asked the two people outside, "Do you know where the border guarded by the Protector of the Nation is?"
Shen Fenghua turned to look at her in surprise: "Why are you asking this?"
"Oh, I'm just asking, so where is he guarding?"
Song Jinshu really didn't know that the original owner's memory only contained the Four Books and Five Classics and beautiful men of gold and silver.
"The National Protector General is at Jingbian Pass, guarding the most important border of our country. Jingbian Pass is very far away from us..." Lu Ruoyu said slowly.
From his spoken words, it can be heard that Lu Ruoyu admires this national defense general very much.
Although Song Jinshu had never met this general, she had a sense of awe for those who defended the motherland.
Upon learning that Jingbian Pass was far away from Jingyang County, Song Jinshu's depressed mood eased a little.
Their Jingyang County had finally gotten a little better, but it could not withstand the ravages of war.
The three returned to the county town.
After saying goodbye to them, Song Jinshu went back to the backyard and first went to the small garden to look at the grapes and watermelons planted there.
Because it rained so heavily a few days ago, the mud was soft and sticky, so Song Jinshu just took a look from the side.
Seeing that the seeds were the same and showed no signs of germination, she returned to her house.
Song Yunfu and Liu Jiangyue next door were talking and laughing about something, but Song Jinshu didn't join in the fun.
She lay alone on the bed with her eyes closed, her mind filled with the images she had just seen using the Baidu Tong app.
Regardless of whether the war can be fought or not, she must take precautions. Once it is confirmed that a war is going to happen, Shunan Prefecture will definitely double the tax revenue on the original basis next year.
Their Jingyang County is already extremely poor, how will the people survive in the future?
Therefore, she must successfully grow late rice this year and promote its cultivation throughout the county as much as possible next year.
If the trial planting here is successful, her achievements will be greatly appreciated, and she will also have the opportunity to write a memorial to the emperor.
This way she would have the capital to negotiate terms with him and also put her own life at stake.
The days passed.
The grapes and watermelons planted by Song Jinshu in the backyard also began to sprout.
Since the seeds sprouted, she has been checking them twice every morning and evening.
Everyone in the mansion knew that she valued this small garden very much, and no one dared to come and cause trouble.
That day, she had just finished looking at the seeds and was about to go out for a look when she ran into Liu Jingmo.
When the other person saw her, his eyes lit up and he came over to greet her with a smile: "Master Song, are you going out to investigate the people's sentiments again?"
Song Jinshu frowned and looked at him, puzzled, "How come Mr. Liu has time to come to the county government office?"
She felt angry whenever she talked about this man. He stood her up last time, but when they met again, he treated her as if nothing had happened.
If it weren't for the fact that he personally apologized to her sister, she wouldn't have wanted to pay any attention to him.
I just don’t know what this person is doing here today?
Liu Jingmo pretended not to notice her unpleasant expression and continued as he pleased: "I came here today for good news. Lord Song, would you be so kind as to listen to it?"
"Oh? That's strange!"
Fortunately, she didn't have anything important to do, so she might as well listen to him talk.
The two went to the Liu family's restaurant in Jingyang County and then went to the private room to drink tea.
Song Jinshu didn't bother beating around the bush and said bluntly, "Young Master Liu, just speak frankly."
She wanted to see if anything good could happen.
Liu Jingmo took a sip of tea, looked up at Song Jinshu, and chuckled, "Sir Song is indeed straightforward. I won't beat around the bush."
"I wonder if your Excellency has heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess is planning to visit her relatives in Shun'an Prefecture soon?"
He said he was visiting relatives, but in fact he was just looking for an excuse to go out and have fun.
The two of them understood each other tacitly. Song Jinshu raised an eyebrow, took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Oh, so? This isn't a good thing for me, is it?"
"Oh! How can it not count? The eldest princess is of noble status, and there are all kinds of good things she hasn't seen. I think after coming to Shun'an Mansion, she must like new things.
The mahjong that Lord Song gave to my sister before was very interesting to me. I saw my mother and sister playing it for a while at home and I fell in love with it.
Although the eldest princess was born into a wealthy family and had everything she wanted since she was young, new things can still attract her."
Song Jinshu did not miss Liu Jingmo's calculations as a businessman, and she should have understood his subtext.
Do you want to cooperate with her to sell mahjong?
"So you mean to ask me for the copyright?"
Officials cannot engage in business. This is an eternal truth, and Liu Jingmo understands it.
So he guessed that Song Jinshu had talent for business but was unable to display it, so he thought of cooperating with him.
In this way, she is in the dark while the Liu family is in the light. In the open, it is the Liu family that is doing the mahjong business.
Song Jinshu only collected copyright fees, which did not violate relevant laws.
Song Jinshu touched her pitifully flat purse, and she was indeed a little tempted.
With the eldest princess advertising for them, they don’t have to worry about not making money.
But she was worried that if she made a lot of money in the future, she would be immersed in the money and forget her original intention.
Now she prefers to do things that benefit the people.
"this…"
Song Jinshu's hesitation made Liu Jingmo's eyelids twitch. He really wanted to make this cooperation happen.
"If you have any concerns, Lord Song, please let me know. I will do my best to help you."
"Ahem..." Song Jinshu coughed and sighed awkwardly, "I'm not interested in money. I prefer to be honest and upright, working for the benefit of the people..."
She felt a little uncomfortable at the end, but she was actually very interested.
Liu Jingmo: ...
To be honest, he didn't believe a single punctuation mark in Song Jinshu's words.
Is this still the Song Jinshu he knows?
Sure enough, the next second the person opposite him slapped himself in the face.
"But if you insist on giving it to me, and think it's the reward I deserve, I can't refuse it, so I can only accept it reluctantly... Alas!"
Liu Jingmo lowered his head and didn't dare to look at the person opposite him, for fear that he would laugh out loud.
She is still the same Song Jinshu!
"Ahem... The mahjong business was obtained by my Liu family with such shamelessness that we begged for it from you, my Lord. My Liu family is a business family that values integrity above all else. We would never take something from someone without paying for it.
The copyright of this mahjong was forced upon you by my Liu family, and you could not refuse, so you reluctantly accepted it."
"Well, I knew at first sight that Master Liu was a man of great potential. Since Master Liu was so sincere, I agreed.
But there is one thing I need Mr. Liu to agree to first."
Hearing his agreement, Liu Jingmo breathed a sigh of relief: "Master Song, please speak. I will never refuse anything I can do."
