After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad
Chapter 406 The Forgotten Tyrants
Shopkeeper Xia did not give up and immediately ran to the neighboring town of Woye to see if he could find a bargain.
As for Fuming Town, there is no need to think about it.
Among the seven towns, the general stayed in Fuming Town the longest.
Who wouldn't be excited when they thought about having their name on the monument and being seen by the general from time to time? !
I think even if I try my best, I won’t be able to get a spot in Fuming Town!
Before Shopkeeper Xia left the gate of Huaishuo Town, he saw the Wu family, who sold milk tea, returning dejectedly.
Shopkeeper Xia's heart skipped a beat: "Brother Wu, you are not coming back from Woye Town, are you?"
Wu Jia looked up and saw that it was Shopkeeper Xia. He pulled up the corners of his mouth and forced a smile, "Yes! Brother Xia, do you want to go to Woye Town for the merit tablet? Don't go. The official road in Woye Town was claimed yesterday!"
"So fast?!" Shopkeeper Xia was shocked. This didn't make sense. When did Woye Town become so wealthy? !
"Woye Town has used earth cement before, so we know how strong it is! Everyone is working hard to build the official road as soon as possible!"
After hearing this, Shopkeeper Xia regretted it so much that his intestines turned green!
In the past, I was only concerned about making money, and relying on my son's good academic performance, I thought that it didn't matter if I didn't know a few words, as long as I could do the accounting!
This is great, I have suffered a great loss, I bought the newspaper every time! Just because I can't read, I wasted so many days!
Wu Jia had a sad face and regretted his decision: "Oh, it's all my fault. A newspaper only costs one or two cents! Why didn't I spend money to buy it?! I missed the last Cuju match because I received the news too late, but I still didn't learn my lesson!"
These words made Shopkeeper Xia feel even more uncomfortable!
Learn to read, and continue to learn to read! Shopkeeper Xia was furious and thought to himself.
In the county government office of Huaishuo Town, Yan Tongchu and the chief clerk were extremely busy.
Looking at the merchants holding money and trying to come in, Yan Tongchu actually felt as if he was in another world.
"The merchants in Huaishuo Town actually support our work so much?"
You know, before the general came, those rich families were reluctant to donate their granaries even if they were infested with rats!
During the most difficult times, Wang Buxi of Woye Town raided several houses on charges of various crimes, and only then was he able to squeeze some money out of the hands of those local tyrants!
But this time, just for a name, everyone is willing to empty their family fortunes!
The chief clerk looked at the densely packed names of merchants and sighed, "As expected of a great general! With just a small trick, he was able to build the official road without any effort!"
The chief clerk was full of admiration, "General, you do things one step at a time!"
The general first vigorously developed the economy, which resulted in the addition of many wealthy families in Huaishuo Town, such as the Xia family restaurant and the Wu family milk tea shop!
They are like rising stars. Although they cannot compete with the local powers, they can still pose some threat.
Especially this time, if the Xia and Wu families were also named on the monument, wouldn't outsiders think that these two families were the local tyrants when they saw it? !
How can I bear this? !
As for power, ever since the general came, the local tyrants could no longer be so powerful, and they even dared not to show up.
In terms of money, Yunzhou is flourishing, and many families are as powerful as the local powerful people.
If his reputation were to suffer another blow, this powerful man would probably become just an ordinary rich man!
Therefore, most of the names on this wave of merit tablets are from local powerful people!
Gu Nanxi was also very surprised when she received the list.
"Our Yunzhou is actually a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are hidden!"
This is no ordinary list. Not only does it include the names, families, and main businesses of the donors, but even their personal networks in Kyoto are written on it!
The horse breeder Lin Jinshan was also on the list, and his name was specially marked in red and bold, indicating that their connection with the Tatars was interrupted by the last victory in Yunzhou.
Having lost the support of the Tartars, Lin Jinshan had no choice but to completely surrender to Yunzhou.
"Are these the local powerful people in Yunzhou?"
Wang Buxi nodded: "Two-thirds of them are powerful."
Gu Nanxi clicked his tongue twice: "Why don't I ever see them come to visit me? Do they look down on me?"
Wang Buxi has been so busy lately that he has lost a lot of weight and his eye circles are dark.
Gu Nanxi naturally didn't want her right-hand man to fall ill, so she forced him to stay and have lunch together.
Lunch is chicken stewed with mushrooms. Pick half-grown chickens, cut them into pieces, wash them, put them in a ceramic pot, add wine and mushrooms, and simmer them over low heat.
It would be better if there were vermicelli, but unfortunately there are no sweet potatoes or potatoes at this time.
Even so, once the pottery jar is opened, the aroma is so fragrant that it makes one drool.
Paired with a bowl of hot white rice, it is so delicious that you can't wait to eat your tongue!
Wang Buxi didn't consider himself an outsider. As soon as the food was served, Gu Nanxi picked up his chopsticks and immediately picked up a piece of chicken. He then scooped a spoonful of soup on the rice and took a big bite.
After slightly padding his stomach, Wang Buxi said, "They want to jump, but you, the Great General, came here with the title of Jade-faced King of Hell! How dare they?"
Wang Buxi laughed as he spoke: "They originally wanted to take Qiao and wait for you to come and invite them. But they didn't expect that you seemed to ignore them. Even without them, Yunzhou can still develop vigorously!"
What does it mean to lose more than you gain? This is what it means to be a loser!
They wanted to control the local officials as they did before, but they didn't expect that Gu Nanxi didn't even think of them!
When they wanted to seek refuge later, they were unable to reach the governor's mansion!
At this point, it’s not a question of whether or not they want to seek refuge, but they are worried that Gu Nanxi is short of money and will find an excuse to confiscate all their properties.
Now, let’s take this opportunity to express our stance on the matter of the stele of merit!
For ordinary people, being engraved on a monument of merit is a way to bring honor to their ancestors.
For them, this is the money to buy their lives!
After hearing Wang Buxi's words, Gu Nanxi was speechless. It turned out that his moral standards were still too high!
Yunzhou Construction was short of money, and Gu Nanxi's first reaction was to sell her dowry to fill the hole, instead of thinking about confiscating the house!
Gu Nanxi rubbed his teeth and said meaningfully: "A person's death can be heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather. Since they like to measure it with money, we should respect them."
Wang Buxi's eyes flashed: "My lord, what do you mean?"
This is the only wave of road construction, and the merit tablet will only be there once. If it happens more often, the merit tablet will no longer be valuable.
Gu Nanxi thought, it's not easy to be an honest official, but it's easy to get the benefits of Kashgar? !
"Now that the monument of merit has been erected, shouldn't every official road be named? Since road construction is about accumulating merit, we should give those kind-hearted people a chance and give them some naming suggestions!"
Wang Buxi was so angry that he gasped. Wouldn't the powerful people bleed a lot of money now? !
