Mr. Xiang teases her husband every day

After negotiating with He Congshan, Xiang Yuan hastily recalled his daughter-in-law and carefully discussed the items to be traded.Zhao Shen had never been in contact with foreign barter before, but when he heard Xiang Yuan say it for the first time, he was immediately very interested.

Master Hu calmly glanced at Hao Xiancheng, who was serving fine tea, while distractedly listening to Zhao Shen's analysis of what kind of goods he should take to barter with the Mongolians.

To be honest, when Xiang Zhengtang said that he would call his wife over to participate in the discussion, they all had some small opinions in their hearts.The master of a family is also the master of the county magistrate, so he should stay indoors and serve the county magistrate in his own right. He also has to participate in such important matters between men. The county magistrate is too fond of his husband, and that Fu Lang also took himself too seriously.

No matter how much he slandered from the bottom of his heart, Zhao Shen finally showed up generously.After listening to Xiang Yuan's introduction, when no one else had any good opinions, they not only provided extremely detailed reference information, but also checked out all the pros and cons.It has to be admired.

The lord of the main hall was about to finish speaking, and Master Hu glanced at Hao Xiancheng again.

It is said that Hao Xiancheng is also unlucky.I thought that if Cui Zhengtang was taken away, he would be able to take the position of Zhengtang if he had a good relationship. After all, Quzhou is remote, and almost no one likes to come to work.But who would have thought that it was such an unfortunate coincidence that the imperial court had directly appointed him, and the new county magistrate was not young, he was the number one scholar freshly released this year!

Now, don't look at it specially, the whole yamen knows how dark Hao Xiancheng's face is.Not to mention Hao Xiancheng, even they are very disappointed.

Gein was too strict when Cui Zhengtang was there before.The monthly salary of the yamen is only so much, and it is problematic to feed the young and old without eating or drinking. Cui Zhengtang still does not allow corruption, and even a small matter of one tael of silver can be sent to prison, which makes the yamen full of complaints.Cui Zhengtang was transferred, they were the happiest and encouraged them, and privately thought that if Hao Xiancheng went up, for the sake of everyone's shared joys and sorrows, the future life should not be too difficult, but who knows, hey!

"Except for items such as salt and iron, medicinal materials, grain, and cotton, we can only use livestock. The silky chicken here in Quzhou looks good, tastes delicious, and is unique to Quzhou, so it should be easy to sell."

Seeing that the master, his immediate boss, had finished his report, Master Hu quickly regained his senses and pretended to be listening carefully.

"Hao Xiancheng, what do you think?"

Xiang Yuan didn't rush to draw conclusions, but kindly asked his subordinates for their opinions.

It's just that only the person concerned knows how the person who is kindly questioned is feeling.

Hao Xiancheng slowly put down the teacup, stroked his beard, and said slowly: "The Mengtars are all rough and barbaric people, they are used to eating beef and mutton, and they can see a little meat like a black-bone chicken?"

After speaking, with a little disdain on his face, he shook his head.

Xiang Yuan nodded, turned his gaze to Master Hu, and said with a smile, "What does Master Hu think?"

Hu

The director was shocked, and blurted out: "I think you can give it a try."

Master Hu was bald, and he was in a bad mood, and he definitely offended Hao County Chancellor.

Sure enough, after the meeting was over, Hao Xiancheng threw him a sharp knife and strode away first. Looking at the direction, he must have gone to provoke the master's house.

Mr. Hu sighed, turned his head to look at the inner hall of the county government office, and thought to himself that he should lean over there after really thinking about it.

"I plan to ask my second brother-in-law to come to Quzhou to have a look. If possible, selling medicinal materials is also a good way."

Zhao Shen blinked and looked at Xiang Yuan speechlessly.

Speak as you speak, where do you put your paws?asshole!In broad daylight, don't be ashamed!

Vigorously slapping off the wolf paw that seriously crossed the line, Zhao Shen took out a booklet and handed it to Xiang Yuan.

"I think it's okay. It's done well. It's much better than the second brother-in-law who sticks to such a shop now. This booklet is what I learned about it when I went out these few days. Take a closer look."

Xiang Yuan knew that his daughter-in-law was meticulous in her work, but she didn't expect to be so meticulous.In the small booklet, all the products of Quzhou are densely recorded. If there are no other places, or special ones, they are specially marked with cinnabar, which is very eye-catching.

Unable to bear the heat in his heart, Xiang Yuan pulled him into his arms and kissed him hard.

Xiang Yuan had no choice but to let him go after he was tired of drinking a cup of tea.If he doesn't let go, his waist will turn blue.

"I plan to ask you to form a caravan, and you will be responsible for receiving and selling the goods."

Before Zhao Shen exploded, Xiang Yuan quickly put on the posture of discussing business.

Zhao Shen thought for a while, and said, "You want me to personally lead the team to trade with General He?"

Xiang Yuan nodded, there was nothing he could do now.He has just arrived, firstly, he has not yet gained the trust of Quzhou, and secondly, he does not want to take advantage of the hard-earned business routes for unrelated people.Come to Quzhou again to experience Cui County Magistrate's prohibition and rectification, and the business is sluggish. At this time, the Yamen must take the lead in high-profile activities in order to dispel the local people's doubts that they dare not do business.

Zhao Shen is very talented in business and has a keen sense of smell. Without Xiang Yuan's further explanation, he figured out the key points.

"Okay, I'm fine."

Seeing that Zhao Shen had figured it out, Xiang Yuan's face was full of excitement, and he was eager to try, a little bit frustrated.The daughter-in-law never thought that if she formed a team to do business, she would spend less time with him than she did!He didn't even expect to say so, but still acted so expectantly, he should be punished!

So, this night, for the first time, Zhao Shen knew that besides the fixed postures, Xiang Congzi had secretly learned other ways to play. Not only were the postures extremely shameful, but also because of his insistence on exercising, his physical strength was extraordinary. Well, the movements are wild and the swings are strong. He thinks he has good physical strength, but in the end he cried out in embarrassment and begged for mercy.

Xiang Yuan rubbed his painfully bitten shoulder, grinned, and was not angry.

Poor thing, since he hit his daughter-in-law's nightmare, he really hasn't seen any meat.Seeing that his wife is doing well now, it is natural to give him a thorough comfort to his suffering mind and body.

Zhao Shen wrote a letter to his second brother-in-law. In the letter, he briefly described the situation in Quzhou. It is his freedom not to come.

After handing over the letter to the messenger at the post station, Zhao Shen took Xiang Yuan to inspect the place where he bought the silky chicken.Unexpectedly, after going there, I found out that the person who sold the black-bone chicken was not from the county seat, but from Shitao Village not far from the county seat, and according to the vendor who set up the stall together, he hadn’t seen that person selling black-bone chicken for several days. bone chicken.

In Shitao Village, Xiang Yuan thought for a while and remembered the information collected by his subordinates.Because there is a naturally formed stone in the village, which looks like a peach, so the whole village is called Shitao Village.This Shitao Village is said to be very united. If someone accidentally bullies the people of Shitao Village, no matter how far away, the young and strong people of Shitao Village will go to revenge in groups.Over time, no one in the nearby villages dared to offend people from Shitao Village.Moreover, women in Shitao Village seldom marry outsiders, and few people in the village come out and walk around, so the man selling silky chickens will be impressive after everyone knows that he is from Shitao Village.

Xiang Yuan snorted softly, unity is true, but xenophobia is probably not false.From the information alone, Xiang Yuan could guess the isolation and xenophobia of that village.

However, no matter how exclusive they are, Xiang Yuan will also break their barriers from the outside. He is waiting to use the silky chicken to reverse the status quo in Quzhou.

With only five or six yamen servants, Xiang Yuan and Zhao Shen arrived at Shitao Village after walking for about two quarters of an hour.To be honest, Shitao Village looks much better than other villages and towns that Xiang Yuan has visited before.Although most of the houses are thatched roofs, there are still a few brick and tile houses in the middle, but I don't know who lives in these brick and tile houses.But the strange thing is that no matter whether it is a child or an adult, the complexion is not rosy.

I hadn't walked more than a hundred meters after entering the village, when a few people hurriedly came to block the way.

"Who are you, and what are you doing in Shitao Village?"

The one who spoke was a short but solid black-faced man.His small eyes scanned Xiang Yuan and the others vigilantly.Xiang Yuan didn't wear an official uniform, and the yamen servants he brought were also wearing ordinary clothes, so the group of them just looked richer, but no one recognized that they were the officials of the county yamen.

Among the yamen servants brought by Xiang Yuan, there was a man standing behind, winking at the short man who just started talking, but that man was very dull, not only did not understand the yamen servant's hint, but kept staring at the yamen servant, The mouth couldn't help but ask: "What? Yangtou, what are you talking about?"

The yamen servant called Yangtou was so angry that he vomited blood. When he saw Xiang Yuan looking over with a half-smile, his heart trembled, his thoughts changed, and he hurriedly said in a low voice: "Zhengtang, the young one knows people from Shitao Village, otherwise the young one come to ask?"

Xiang Yuan nodded, no matter what relationship this Yangtou had with Shitao Village before, it was useless in the face of absolute power.

"Zhou Shugen, where will the black-bone chicken farmers in your village live? Take our master there to have a look."

Zhou Shugen saw that Yang Tou was respectful to the leader, Xiang Yuan, and realized that this pedestrian was not easy, and he might be an official.The reason why Xiang Yuan was not the county magistrate first was because in their eyes, it was impossible for the county magistrate to go to the countryside.When County Magistrate Cui was here before, he had never heard of him going down to the village.

However, the person he was looking for was a little troublesome.Lizheng was waiting for the family to nod at the other end. At this juncture, why did someone come here!

"You are talking about Zhou Qinglin's family. His family's silky chickens are no longer raised, and they are all sold to Li Zheng."

Zhou Shugen really couldn't think of any way to stop him, so he had to move out of Lizheng.

"No more?"

Zhao Shen frowned. He had inquired specifically when he was buying silky chickens before. He remembered that the man was very excited and said that he still had a lot of them at home, and that he would raise more silky chickens in the future and try to sell them outside. , called the county, and other villages have tasted his silky chicken.How do you say that if you don't raise it, you won't raise it?

"Yes, Lizheng's family has a lot of food and can afford it."

Yang Tou wanted to kill this idiot in front of him!

Didn't he see that he was respectful to Xiang Yuan, and didn't he see that the person in front of him was unusual?Li Zheng, who opened his mouth and kept his mouth shut, is just in charge of a small village, and it is simply abominable to teach the villagers to be so defiant!

"It's okay, let's just go and have a look."

Xiang Yuan glanced at Zhou Shugen indifferently, and said with authority in his voice, "Lead the way!"

Zhou Shugen was overwhelmed by Xiang Yuan's aura, and immediately shrank his neck, and he didn't dare to talk anymore, and obediently led the way.When encountering a pothole, he diligently found stones and branches to pave it, and then invited Xiang Yuan and the others to pass.

Seeing it from behind, Yang Tou was furious.Who are these people!Those who talk nicely are arrogant, and once they become strong, they will immediately become grandsons and become cheap!
