Fast Travel: A Record of Unusual Creatures

After figuring out the situation and getting what they wanted, the officials who came to visit quickly left one after another, and the relevant news spread quickly under Lin Ruhai's intentional efforts. It only took a morning, It basically spread throughout Yangzhou City.

It is estimated that it will not be a problem to spread it throughout the world within a month.

Many families in Yangzhou city who believe that their heirs are in trouble are already trying their best to use their own connections, hoping to establish a relationship with the Lin family, or even with the servants and maids in the Lin family.

Anyway, as long as I can get pomegranates.

……

Compared with the officials in the capital who had to go to court every day before dawn when the emperor was industrious, the daily life of local officials was much more relaxed and comfortable, let alone the position of salt inspector, which was more relaxed and comfortable than that of the governor. .

You can take a vacation for yourself during your free time.

Therefore, the three of them had time to have breakfast together in the morning. After breakfast, the couple asked Yu'er as usual whether there was anything serious about her health, what she had learned, how she was feeling, etc. Let Nanny Li take Daiyu back.

"Ms. sir, give me some pomegranate granules to eat!

I am already quite old. Now that I am pregnant at this age, others will say that I am pregnant with a baby. What’s more, if I continue to delay, I will get pregnant as soon as possible. Not only you and I will feel at ease.

You can also pray to your ancestors and live up to their gifts. "

It has to be said that Jia Min is actually quite anxious at this time. She had already despaired of getting pregnant again yesterday, but that was without a miracle happening. Now that a miracle has happened, she has rekindled hope in her heart. It's a perfectly normal thing.

And she also believes that this is truly a blessing from her ancestors.

So of course you have to get pregnant early.

Make the ancestors happy.

"Don't be in a hurry. Although I guess it's a blessing from my ancestors, it's really not a dream. I'm not sure what the effect will be. I'd better wait a little. There should be many people coming to ask for pomegranate seeds in the next period of time. There are also many people who will try it themselves or let others try it. Anyway, we have all been waiting for so many years.

There is no need to spend this month's time.

I have sent people to pick two or three fruits and store them in the cellar. At the same time, I have also sent people to keep an eye on the pomegranate tree to prevent anyone from trying to steal them. In short, even if it takes a few months, you will not be deprived. eat.

There’s no need to be too hasty, just wait patiently…”

The so-called blessing from ancestors is just Lin Ruhai's speculation and rhetoric. He is not sure whether this is the case. There is also the possibility that the pomegranate tree will become a spirit by itself after hundreds of years. This kind of thing is difficult to say. At the same time, he is not sure about Lin Ruhai's pomegranate. The effect is real.

It's not that he thinks Lin Laoshi is lying, it's mainly that the information Lin Laoshi learned was also told to him by an unknown entity, maybe even directly told by Pomegranate Tree, and he doesn't know whether the other person is good or evil.

Don't be afraid of [-], just be afraid of what happens.

When facing the unknown, of course it is better to be cautious.

"Forget it, let's wait a little longer..."

Jia Min is not a person who doesn't listen to advice, and Lin Ruhai is so cautious for her own good. It's not too late to feel sweet and happy, so why would she have to fight for these ten days and a half!

After Jia Min left, Lin Ruhai immediately went to Qianya, where the Salt Patrol Censor's office was, and wrote the memorial first. Basically, he took the initiative to explain the specific situation, and said that he did not know the specific effects of pomegranate fruit for the time being. It's not true. We have tried it now and will report back once we have the results.

After writing a memorial, he quickly made a copy, and then sent someone to pick eighteen pomegranate fruits again, divided them into two parts, one with nine fruits, and took two copies of the same memorial with him, and ordered people to Send it to the capital quickly.

The Supreme Emperor and the new Emperor each have one share.

His current position as Salt Patrol Censor can be said to be very uncomfortable. This is not only due to the Supreme Emperor's unwillingness to fully delegate power, but also to the fact that the new emperor is still fighting openly and secretly, and it is also due to his inability to clearly stand and support a certain one.

When he was sent here five years ago, the Supreme Emperor had not abdicated, so in the eyes of the world, he belonged to the Supreme Emperor's faction. Not only did the old lady of the Zhen family in Yangzhou Prefecture nurture the Supreme Emperor, but there was also a The daughter is a noble concubine, and she is also a member of the Supreme Emperor's faction. Behind his wife Jia Min, the Jia family of Rongguo Mansion is a die-hard vassal of the Supreme Emperor.

These factors are added together. If he says that he and the Supreme Emperor are not of the same mind, some people must believe him.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, he did not have much real power because the Supreme Emperor was still alive, and he did not dare to oust the Supreme Emperor's team and arrange for his own people to take the throne. Therefore, his Salt Patrol Censorship was only held for three years, and he has been doing so until now.

But everyone with a discerning eye knows that the Supreme Emperor is already in the sunset. He may still be able to hold on for three to five years, but it is impossible to hold on forever. As long as nothing unexpected happens, the world will still belong to the new emperor in the future. Those who are against the new emperor now will even feel sad. It would be difficult for the new emperor to avoid being settled by the Queen, but there would be great risks in taking refuge in the new emperor now. The Supreme Emperor would not tolerate betrayal.

In short, the conflict between father and son made the ministers below very embarrassed. They were not human beings inside and outside.

In addition, if the emperor has no money, it is difficult to hire hungry officials.

Therefore, the Supreme Emperor was unwilling to give up the lucrative position of Inspector Yan, and the new emperor was desperately trying to get it.

He could not offend either side, so he could only stand on both sides. On the one hand, he passed all the salt taxes that should be paid to the country through the Ministry of Household Affairs and handed them over to the new emperor. On the other hand, he handed over all the money that the salt merchants gave privately to the Supreme Emperor. .

He hoped that the two would not be offended, but in reality, his operation was like walking a tightrope and could tip over at any time.

The other salt inspectors were almost exhausted, but he had to deal with the emperor and satisfy the new emperor. Not to mention making money, he sometimes had to give some money himself to prevent the salt merchants from bribing him with too little money and not being able to satisfy the emperor.

It is true that one's life is hanging on a rope, and one must be an official at a loss.

The Supreme Emperor and the New Emperor may not be unaware of this, they may both know it well, but the Salt Patrol Censor, who is not greedy and even gave them all the money he got, is no better than those who have enough to eat and drink, and then The salt patrol censor who gets money for them is a thousand times better.

What boss wouldn't like a subordinate who doesn't make any money and occasionally pays for his work, and doesn't want to use it first?

Another one, even one who is obedient or more capable.

But in case the salt policy is messed up again.

It's time to lose.

Therefore, the new emperor should not touch his salt patrol censor until he is completely in power. The Supreme Emperor also knows the importance of the salt tax to the country. No matter how he changes the salt patrol censor, it is difficult to cover all the salt tax. interception.

So it’s better to just leave it like this.

On the contrary, a relatively stable and balanced situation has been formed.

From then on, no matter what news Lin Ruhai had, she had to get two copies and send them to the Supreme Emperor and the new emperor respectively.

We treat everyone equally, and everyone is affected by rain and dew.
