Datang: Starting from Li Jiancheng

Chapter 116 Luo Bin's Anger

Beiwei Jun saw that the crease between his brows deepened a little, and then he said helplessly: "Everyone, don't worry, although we have nothing to do, I believe that our Lord Marquis must have a way."

"We will send some brothers secretly back to Chang'an today to report everything here to the Marquis. I believe the Marquis will not ignore it."

"Really?" The aunt got up when she heard the words, "Is what you said true?"

"Yes." Bei Weijun responded, and then said: "But it will definitely take some time to go back and forth to Chang'an. During this period, everyone will be wronged."

"Oh, it doesn't matter if we feel wronged for a few days, but if it lasts for a long time, we really can't bear it."

After all, the price of paying heavy taxes once can be accepted by ordinary people, but if it continues like this, even the richest people will not be able to do what they want.

"Don't worry, everyone, we will send people back to Chang'an tonight, Lord Hou will definitely not just sit idly by."

"Okay, that's good, it's troublesome."

The people of Bingzhou felt a little relieved when they heard the assurance from Beiwei Army, and then they gathered together and quietly complained about Hou Junji, and then dispersed.

The patrolling Beiwei army also discussed this matter after returning to the army, and then sent three people back to Chang'an overnight.

On the other side, Hou Junji's eyes were shining at a box of real gold and silver. In Chang'an, because Li Shimin was frugal, ministers like them could not be too extravagant.

It's a pity that he hasn't enjoyed life much in his old age.

"Go, slaughter a pig for this general. This general will eat well in the next few days."

Hou Junji waved his hand, and then said: "The soldiers who came with me have also worked hard, so the food should also be improved."

"Thank you, General."

The soldiers were overjoyed when they heard the words, and went to do it immediately.

a few days later.

Chang'an City, Wuhou Mansion.

"Master Hou, the Beiwei army from Bingzhou is here."

When Luo Bin was concentrating on checking the accounts, the servant suddenly came to report.

Luo Bin was shocked when he heard this, and then immediately stood up, "Let them in quickly."

If the situation in Bingzhou had not reached an intolerable level, Beiwei's army would not have come.

"Master Hou."

The three Beiwei soldiers were overjoyed when they saw Luo Bin, and then there was a bit of self-blame in their eyes.

"What's wrong?" Luo Bin frowned slightly.

"Master Hou, General Hou finally canceled the border trade as soon as he arrived. He also imposed heavy taxes on merchants, requiring them to pay three times the tax as ordinary people."

"Now the people of Bingzhou are crying all day long."

One of the Bei Weijun pursed his lips and continued: "When we see the common people, we would like to take a detour, otherwise if they see us, we will cry and beg."

"But we can't do anything about General Hou. We really don't know what to do, so we ran out overnight to find you, Lord Hou."

"Hou Junji!"

Luo Bin's face darkened from anger, and he gritted his teeth for a long time and said, "The border trade deal will benefit both countries, so why should he cancel it?"

"The general said that the Turks are our enemies. We can't do business with them." Beiwei Jun lowered his eyes and explained: "We have also explained to General Hou many times that we are only doing business with ordinary people in Turks, but General Hou Not listening at all."

"It's a ghost if he can listen." Luo Bin snorted coldly, and then asked: "He doesn't like the cancellation of the border trade deal, so he canceled it. What does it mean to impose heavy taxes on merchants?"

"General Hou said that those who do business must be rich. If you earn more than others, you should pay more than others. This is the balance."

"Balance!" Luo Bin's complexion darkened in anger, "No matter how much money they make, they rely on their own skills. Why do they have to teach more if they make more money? If this continues, who would want to do business?"

"If things continue like this, Bingzhou will probably be doomed."

"Yes, Lord Marquis, please think of a solution quickly." Bei Weijun also frowned and said.

Luo Bin also rubbed his brows helplessly, if he complained to Li Shimin now, Li Shimin would definitely know that he had been sending people to watch Bingzhou.

If Li Shimin is aroused again, he may order all the Beiwei troops to withdraw from Bingzhou, but if he wants to know some information about Bingzhou, it will be difficult.

And now it's not a last resort, he doesn't want to tear up his face with Li Shimin, after all, it's not the time yet.

Dou Yinger on the side also frowned when she heard the words, "Hurry up and find a way, didn't you say that Bingzhou is all your hard work?"

Luo Bin became even more dizzy after hearing this. He pursed his lips and said, "I understand. You guys go down first and let me think about it."

"Yes." Bei Weijun responded and then left.

Seeing this, Dou Yinger was about to leave, but was stopped by Luo Bin.

"Come out with me for a stroll."

Luo Bin sighed softly, and then said: "Go and do it according to the method I said before."

"Okay." Dou Ying'er responded, then went back to the room to clean up.

When she came out again, Dou Yinger had completely changed.

Wearing a red uniform, flaming red lips, nondescript eye makeup, and a huge matchmaker mole on the corner of her mouth, her hair was pulled up casually, making her look like a middle-aged aunt.

Luo Bin was stunned when he saw this, and then he couldn't help laughing and said: "I called you sister last time I went out, but I'm afraid I'm going to call you aunt this time."

"That's right." Dou Yinger raised her eyebrows in satisfaction, "I don't believe that someone can recognize me even when I dress up like this."

"Don't worry, even the students at Taiping College may not recognize you when they see you." Luo Bin pursed his lips and said.

Dou Ying'er lowered her eyes slightly when she heard this, with a bit of disappointment in her eyes, "I haven't seen the students of Taiping College for a long time."

"I don't know when I can go to teach them."

Luo Bin frowned, and then said: "The last few times I went to those children, I still asked you, but don't worry, they have morning and evening exercises every day, and their physical fitness is much better than before."

"If you really miss them, I can ask Miracle Doctor Sun to set aside a class for you tomorrow."

"Really?" Dou Ying'er was delighted when she heard this.

"Yeah." Luo Bin responded, and then added: "But you have to dress up like this when you go, and change your clothes after you arrive at the academy. If you have children asking you, you can just say a few words, little Children are easier to deceive."

"Okay, don't worry." Dou Yinger smiled, and her mood improved a lot in an instant.

"By the way, Divine Doctor Sun knows your identity, so it doesn't matter if he sees you changing your clothes, but Mr. Wang, you still have to carry some."

Luo Bin frowned slightly, and reminded in a deep voice: "After all, Mr. Wang was sent by Changsun Wuji. Although he has devoted himself to teaching the children to read, he still has to guard against it."
