I have a backstage in Datang

My general has always insisted on the rules, and no one can get through the back door from him. Why did he suddenly seem to be a different person today, and his tone of voice sounded trembling?

The soldiers were really puzzled.

……

No matter how puzzled the soldiers were, it was not their turn to decide what happened next.

I saw the city gate general cupping his fists slightly, arched at Gu Tianya, deliberately pretended to 'admire' and said: "Scholars have a long-term vision, so the suggestion must be good. Especially these people are military dependents. They Should have been taken care of…”

The general of the city gate paused while speaking, and said solemnly: "The family members of the same robe are also my relatives. This general decided to accept the suggestion and let them enter the city as fleeing famine."

That's what it means to be settled.

With a warm smile on his face, Gu Tianya stretched out his hand to hand over a stack of documents, and said with a smile: "In this case, please use the general's seal. These documents have been registered as 'controversial', and if you add the general's seal, it will be more persuasive."

Without hesitation, the general of the city gate reached into his pocket and took out a seal. He used the seals on the documents one by one, and kept chanting loudly in his mouth: "The Zhao Tian family of Jeju people is designated as refugees fleeing famine and entering the city. The Zhao Sun family of Jeju people is designated as The people of Jeju..."

After a short time, all 37 documents were stamped with stamps. After these stamps, it represented the characterization given to this group of migrating military relatives by the city gate guards.

Gu Tianya still had a warm smile on his face, turned his head to look at Tan Jiujiu and the others, and greeted: "The matter has been completed, everyone can enter the city. As for the next thing, I will help you apply for various subsidies."

The group of military relatives were in a daze, as if they couldn't react for a while, and subconsciously said: "This... this... is this done?"

Gu Tianya smiled and nodded, "It's done!"

Only then did the military dependents get excited, with expressions of surprise and joy on their faces.

However, the Mohe girl was more excited than the military family members. She grabbed her brother's wrist and squeezed forward. At this moment, her eyes were full of brilliance, and she said excitedly: "Don't forget me and my brother, we also apply for refugee status .”

While speaking, she hurriedly raised two documents with her small hands.

Her eyes were full of anticipation and apprehension, waiting eagerly for Gu Tianya's answer.

Without hesitation, Gu Tianya stretched out his hand to finish her paperwork, but turned to look at the city gate general, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid I have to trouble you, and seal the paperwork for the siblings."

How dare the general of the city gate refuse to obey, but he felt curious in his heart, and couldn't help saying: "These two siblings... seem to..."

"We are Chinese!"

The Mohe girl hurriedly rushed to answer, and said loudly, "My brother and I are both Han Chinese, but we just look like Mohe people."

There is no silver 300 taels here!

The city gate general had a strange look on his face, but he still took out his seal after all.

There were two slaps, and all the documents were stamped.

"It's done!"

The Mohe girl was full of excitement.

……

This group of military dependents who had migrated for a long distance had finally entered Youzhou City.

The Mohe girl held her younger brother's hand tightly and walked carefully with the migration team. At this time, she was not worried about being cheated at all, but was afraid that Gu Tianya would no longer help her.

However, after entering the city gate, almost everyone was refreshed, and only a few women murmured, with a clear cry in their tone, and said bitterly: "We're here, we're finally here, this is Youzhou, and this is the legend Youzhou in China."

And that Mohe girl was looking around, her eyes were shining with colorful lights, she was still carrying that huge package on her shoulder, anyone who wanted to reach out to help would arouse her vigilance.

Gu Tianya found it interesting, so he purposely approached her and made a sound, pretending to be curious and asked: "What's in your package? Why have you been refusing to let everyone carry it for you? This package must be very heavy, I think You are covered in sweat."

The girl was obviously startled, she shook her head in a panic, and said anxiously: "No, there is nothing in the package, it's just some rags, even if you sell them all, you won't get much money."

Gu Tianya smiled leisurely, and said meaningfully: "I heard that there is a Mohe tribe living between the white mountains and the black waters. Each of them is an expert at crossing mountains and forests. They can hunt exquisite mink fur and dig precious medicinal herbs... "

The girl seemed to be struck by lightning, and her delicate body became stiff obviously.

She was terrified, clutching the package tightly with her hands, and said in a panic, "I'm not from Mohe, and there is no ginseng in the package."

This seemingly shrewd but naive Mohe girl was obviously scammed out of another 300 taels of silver here.

Gu Tianya laughed out loud, feeling that he should stop teasing others.

So he changed his tone slightly, and pointed out in a gentle voice: "Just now I saw you looking around, obviously wanting to choose a place to set up a stall. But I want to tell you that there are skills in setting up stalls in Youzhou City...you Don’t look at the common people setting up stalls everywhere, it seems that they all choose a place at random, but it’s not the case, there’s a lot of knowledge in it.”

The girl felt uneasy, vaguely feeling that 'this young man' had already guessed that there was a treasure in her package, so she was flustered and worried, for fear that her treasure would arouse greed.

But at the same time, she felt a longing in her heart. She was very interested in listening to the young man's stall-setting skills.Such a tangled mind caused her to fall into a battle between heaven and man.

Fortunately, Gu Tianya no longer teased her, but really started pointing her out, saying: "You are from Mohe, the goods in the package must be mountain products, if my guess is correct, it must be mink fur and ginseng, right?" ? These goods are very popular in Youzhou, as long as they are brought out, merchants will inevitably loot them, but because the goods are so popular, I don't recommend you to set up a stall to sell them..."

"Why... why?" The girl was puzzled.

Gu Tianya smiled slightly, and said: "Although there are rules in Youzhou City that don't allow cheating, those merchants running around in the streets are really too cunning. They wander around every day, focusing on honest sellers. The sale of good goods is suddenly crowded with swarms, and they cooperate with each other to deliberately suppress the value of the goods, and as long as the sellers are not paying attention, they will fall into the pit they dug."

The Mohe girl looked panic-stricken, and said, "They will force me to sell the goods at a low price?"

Gu Tianya shook his head, and said: "If they are forcing you to sell goods at a low price, then they have violated the rules of Youzhou, so no one does this kind of thing, you don't have to worry about being forced..."

"But although they won't persecute you, they will use various methods to make you lose confidence. In a daze, you sold the goods cheaply."

The Mohe girl became more and more panicked, but she couldn't help but wondered in her panic, and said, "But I saw a lot of vendors on the street, wouldn't they be cheated when they set up their stalls?"

Gu Tianya laughed, pointed to a booth in the distance, and said, "Look, what they sell is tea, and you can buy a big bowl of this stuff for a penny, which merchant would be foolish enough to cheat a tea seller?"

As he said that, he withdrew his hand, pointed to the girl's package, and said meaningfully: "But your goods are different, any merchant wants to get it..."

"I...I..." The Mohe girl trembled, and said, "What should I do?"

Gu Tianya smiled lightly, and said: "If you are willing to listen to my advice, then don't be in a hurry to sell the goods for the time being. This time you are entering the city as refugees, and this status can enjoy a lot of treatment... When you get it After these treatments, you will not be cheated if you sell goods again."

The Mohe girl was puzzled, subconsciously frowned and said, "Is there a difference?"

Gu Tianya nodded slowly, and said in a serious tone: "There is a big difference, you will understand soon."

The Mohe girl nodded quickly, and hurriedly said: "You must help me, I promise to give you a consistent amount of money." She glanced at Li Shimin as she spoke, and added: "You two brothers specialize in this, right? Since you are doing this, you must ensure that the employer is satisfied, right?"

Gu Tianya and Li Shimin looked at each other, and nodded with deep meaning at the same time: "Yes, we are dedicated to this. Make sure to satisfy the employer, and we will reap the benefits after success..."

The two of them deliberately emphasized the word 'benefit'.

However, the Mohe girl didn't doubt that she had it, and instead felt her flustered mind calm down.

……

As the team continued to move forward, everything in Youzhou New City was finally revealed to everyone.

And all the eagerness in front of them was a huge shock to both the migrating people and the Mohe siblings.

As far as the eye can see, the street below is like a straight dragon, extending far away until it cannot be seen clearly.

This street is so wide that ten ox carts can walk side by side. The entire street is made of bluestone, which gives people a sense of solidity.

Suddenly I heard Tan Nineteen proudly say that this guy was obviously showing off, saying: "There are six streets like this in the whole city, three horizontal and three vertical, running through the whole city... Do you know how much it takes to build this street? Money? The unfinished one has already cost 200 million.”

Whoa!

Everyone was shocked.

A yamen servant stared blankly at the street, constantly gasping in amazement, and said: "Just one street cost 200 million yuan."

He suddenly squatted down and tapped the bluestone on the ground with his hands, and then his face was stupefied, his eyes flashed with incredulity, and he said: "My God, the bluestone used for paving the floor is one foot thick."

Another yamen servant next to him took a deep breath and murmured, "If every piece of bluestone is this thick..."

Tan Nineteen laughed, and said more proudly, "This is still unfinished. If you want to finish it, you will have to spend hundreds of thousands more!"

The two yamen servants were in a daze, and their eyes fell on the street again. They tried their best to find signs of unfinished work, but they didn't find any problems after looking for a long time.

Fortunately, Gu Tianya smiled lightly and explained: "The reason why it is not completed is because the greening on both sides has not yet been carried out. According to the construction plan of Youzhou New City, flowers and trees should be planted on both sides of each street. The trees form green shade, It is convenient for pedestrians to enjoy the shade. The flowers and plants are pleasing to the eye and make people feel comfortable..."

The yamen servants were even more stunned, and subconsciously said: "Just... just to let people enjoy the cool, just... just to make people pleasing to the eye, just for these two small reasons, you have to throw in hundreds of thousands more?"

Gu Tianya nodded with a smile, and said with deep meaning: "It takes ten years to grow trees, and a hundred years to grow people. And the new city of Youzhou under our feet, some people hope that it can become a city that stands for a thousand years."

……

The team continued to walk along the street, gradually becoming noisy on both sides.

I saw countless chariots and horses, loaded with countless bricks, tiles, stones and wood, and the noise of craftsmen was everywhere amidst the neighing of livestock.

Chapter 402 [Bank?Youyun Gu Family Central Bank]

A huge iron pot.

A basket of snow-white buns.

In the whole yard, there is a strong smell of meat.

Gum!

The children swallowed.

Several small officials held a stack of big bowls, handed out bowls and chopsticks to everyone one by one, and kept telling them: "When you are going to eat, you must remember not to be scalded. The broth just out of the pot is very hot, so it must be cooled." It can only be put into your mouth, and there is also white flour steamed bun that comes with food, don’t bite off more than half of it in one bite, it’s best not to gobble up food, it’s easy to choke..."

The little officials were very careful.

The tone is also very gentle.

They not only told them to eat, but also explained the utensils used, and said with a smile: "These bowls and chopsticks have been boiled in boiling water, so you don't have to worry about getting sick, and the tables, chairs and benches have also been carefully wiped. After sending away a batch of guests, our most important job is to disinfect..."

The migrating military family members listened blankly, feeling that they did not understand many words.

A yamen servant finally couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, he carefully grabbed a small official and asked: "Dare to ask this little brother, do you run an inn?"

The little official was startled for a moment, then laughed loudly, shook his head and said, "Look at what you're asking, how could we run an inn?"

He suddenly stopped talking, pointed to his clothes, and said with a smile: "Look at the clothes we wear, all of them have the word 'relief' printed on them, which means relief, and we are refugees. The officials of the Relief Department..."

"My God, it's actually an official?"

The yamen servant's lips trembled visibly.

The little official laughed again, nodded and said: "That's right, of course I'm an official, you may not believe me, but my rank is not low."

The yamen servant was a little flustered, and cautiously asked tentatively, "What rank are you?"

However, the little official looked serious, with pride in his brows and eyes, and said solemnly: "I am from the eighth rank, a well-known rank. In this courtyard, my rank may be the lowest, but if I go to various yamen, My level can completely serve as the boss..."

He said that I paused for a while, and suddenly laughed again, and my tone was no longer as polite as before, but changed back to a very kind little official, and said: "Actually, we really served as a county government officer before." Master Bo, although it is a small middle county, we were one of the three chief officials of the county government at that time."

"My God, have you ever been a boss?"

The yamen servant became visibly shocked, his eyes flickering with disbelief.

He looked the little official up and down, and couldn't help but said: "Seeing that you are not very old, you are only 20 years old at most, unexpectedly, you have been the boss of Zhong County..."

While speaking, a look of respect and fear rose on his face, and he subconsciously said, "This, this is really remarkable."

Unexpectedly, the little official laughed again, waved his hands again and again and said: "It's nothing, it's nothing, it's just relying on my birth and family background, not my own real ability."

As he spoke, he glanced at the yamen servants, and said: "A child from a family like me will become an official at the age of 20, and once he becomes an official, he can at least get a ninth-rank position. But what's the use of this? Age Weiqing has no management experience. It’s nothing more than sitting in the yamen and talking about wars on paper, and jokes about ‘why not eat minced meat’ will be made every now and then...”

This statement made the yamen servant not know how to respond.

But seeing the little official let out a sigh of relief, he suddenly pointed at the clothes on his body again, and said: "This is very good now, we are serving as small officials in Youzhou City, the rank is preserved, and the treatment is not reduced, but we do What we are doing is practical, and we are no longer just talking on paper like before... After working in this way for several years, we have accumulated rich experience. At that time, if we were sent to other local government offices as officials, each of us would have the confidence to become a powerful person. Talented officer."

He paused slightly as he spoke, his tone became solemn, and said: "This way we won't harm the people under our rule."

The yamen servant listened more and more respectfully, but he felt regretful in his heart after all, and couldn't help but say: "But you are an official of the eighth rank after all, to do such a trivial thing..." Before he could finish his sentence, he was suddenly slapped by the little official. Laughter interrupted.

The little official was full of interest, stretched out his hand and pointed to another small official beside him, and asked the yamen servant with a smile, "Guess what level he is?"

The yamen servant was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at another small official.

When the little official saw him looking over, he immediately smiled kindly, nodded lightly and said: "I am from the Zheng family in Xingyang. I separated from Mr. Zheng Guanyu six years ago. After the division, I returned to the ancestral land. , got me an official from the seventh rank... that year, me."

The yamen servant was trembling again, and said in a trembling voice: "From the seventh rank."

The second little official smiled faintly and said, "This high-ranking official can serve as the magistrate of a county. In fact, I did serve as a county magistrate once, and I was the magistrate of a county with a population of more than [-] households."

After he finished speaking, he smiled and nodded again, then walked away with a pile of bowls and chopsticks to distribute utensils to other people.

At this time, the voice of the first small official sounded again, and he stretched out his hand and pointed to several busy small officials in the distance, and introduced them one by one to the yamen servant: "Have you seen that elegant guy? His rank is also from the seventh rank. ! This guy is from the Taiyuan Wang family, and he is also a branch after the separation. He also served as a county magistrate, and he is also the magistrate of a county with a population of more than [-]."

"Look at the guy who started the fire again. His family is Qinghe Cui. Don't treat him as an ordinary cook. He is the most honorable one among our group. This guy is from the direct line , and he is also the son of Cui's second wife..."

The yamen servant only felt a loud noise in his head, and his lips kept trembling: "They are all sons of aristocratic families, they are all of five surnames and seven Wangs."

But the little official chuckled and said, "So what about the sons of the noble families? The most important thing in Youzhou City is the status. You often see a certain scholar from a poor background, and he is the immediate boss of many nobles from the noble families. For example, we The soup cook, the chief officer is a child of the Han clan. His family belongs to a family that has not entered the elite, and he was not even qualified to sit with us at the same table in the past..."

The yamen servant was stunned, and couldn't help but said: "This is also possible? Can it convince the public?"
