[Comprehensive] The five elements are short of money

"Is this your real name?" Xue Xun asked, these people have grown up long ago, even if they are poor girls, there is no trace of their past life.

"Please give me a name from the Lord." The four bowed their heads again.

"That's not what it means. Let's ask your real names and surnames. If you still remember them, you can tell them first." Xue Xun pointed to the person on the far right. This girl is called Tingting.

"I don't remember my name from the past. Please forgive me. From now on, I will only serve the Duke wholeheartedly." Tingting lowered her head, revealing her fair and delicate neck, and she no longer had that cool and pure temperament like a lotus.That's right, I was originally serving people, and I no longer dare to put on airs in front of customers.The three people next to him also agreed, and only asked the Duke to give him a name.

Xue Xun was distressed, he felt sympathy for such girls and wanted to arrange a way out for them.But these people have been trained to look like this, they can only serve people, they don’t have the skills to make a living at all, to let them go free is to kill them, and guarantee that once they leave the gate of the governor’s office, they will be able to see them in the brothel Chu Pavilion the next day .

"You are bestowed by His Majesty, but Madam lives and dies with me. I have already promised that I will not take concubines or be favored in this life. It is inappropriate for you to live in my house again; entrusting you to your colleagues is also to despise Your Majesty's heavenly power, and it is even more impossible. I I originally asked your names, and I wanted to help you find your biological parents. If you are willing to go home, I will give you a dowry of silver taels, so that you can get married happily and live a normal life. Anyway, we met each other by fate, and I can't bear to see you in pieces. But you all I don’t remember, how to do this.”

When Tingting heard this, her body couldn't help trembling, her eyes turned red, and tears rolled out, like dewdrops flowing on lotus leaves, crystal clear, and like pearls falling on a jade plate, round and shiny.

"Grandpa Guo and his wife are deeply in love, and I dare not ask for extravagant service. I implore the Duke of the country to be kind and allow my concubine to become a monk, and pray for the two nobles." Tingting seemed to have suffered a major blow, her voice was a little hoarse, but it was not unpleasant. On the contrary, it made people feel pity, and only reflected on whether they were too harsh on the beauty.

Yuanyuan, Minmin, and Fangfang looked around in a daze. It is customary for His Majesty to bestow beauties. They never worry about their own future. If the Duke doesn't like it, they just give it to his subordinates. With their beauty and means, it is not right to serve anyone. serve.But now that they can't serve others, and they can't go back to their hometown, there is no way out.The three of them were not as quick-witted as Tingting, and they were stunned for a while, not knowing how to reply.

"The ancient Buddha with blue lanterns in the temple lived a hard life. You have to farm and weave cloth. If you go there, you have to grind off a layer of skin on your palms before you can hold the hoe. Of course, this is only the first step. If you want to take a hoe, you need nothing but the skin You have to be rough to withstand friction, but also have strength. You have trained since childhood and controlled your diet, and your body shape is already too small. No matter how you nourish yourself, it is useless, and you can’t support yourself in the temple." Xue Xun said coldly.

Tingting was greatly shocked, she knelt on the ground, shrugged her shoulders, and cried silently, the skirt in front of her eyes soon became dizzy.The other three also fell to their knees, not knowing what to do, and wept in a daze.

Xue Xun sat on top of Tingting, who watched the most dramas, and felt amused.Yes, Xue Xun could tell that Tingting was acting. When the four of them came out, she was secretly the leader. The other three were ignorant, [-]% true and [-]% false, while Tingting was acting from the beginning to the end.

If you want to ask Xue Xun how he saw it, it's a joke, it's really sad, who didn't cry, with snot and tears, this kind of crying pear blossoms with rain makes people feel pity, it can only be acting.In the previous life, it took lighting and close-up rehearsals to cry once, but now Xue Xun has learned how to cry so beautifully without using director's props.

And just now Tingting only cared about "beautiful" and did not refute the phrase "trained since childhood". It seems that these are really trained spies.

Xue Xun let out a long sigh and said, "I feel sympathy for you guys. Go back and think about it. If you figure out your way out, then send someone to report it. Ma'am, these four will follow the example of first-class maids from now on."

Xue Xun asked people to take them down. These people cried so much that they had no energy to walk.

After everyone had left, Xue Xun turned his head and asked, "How is it?"

"They are also poor people." Xue Wang sighed and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

What kind of situation is this? He who was mainly seduced is still as stable as Mount Tai, but Xue Wangshi was actually moved. What kind of divine development is this.Xue Xun suddenly thought of the historical allusion of "I see pity", and gave Xue Wang a strange look. She wouldn't have such a hobby, would she?With "I'm sorry to see you", thinking of the supporting "Guest of the Curtain", Xue Xun began to reflect on which man he hadn't gotten too close to, right?

"Brother Hao, what are you thinking?" Xue Wang's question woke Xue Xun up.Xue Xun shook his head to shake off those wild thoughts, it was really a demon.

"Think about the abilities of those four beauties to fascinate Madam." Xue Xun laughed.

"What are you talking about! I just feel pity for them, but they didn't do it voluntarily. Women are suffering." Xue Wang has a sense of women's group.

"It can make people feel pity, and it will not be in vain for others to spend their time and energy on acting."

"Are they acting?" Xue Wang raised her voice and said, "But she was crying so pitifully..."

Xue Xun really believes that the backyard of his father-in-law is very peaceful. A concubine who doesn't even know these methods is really naive.

"Okay, if you have time, let Zhu Qing come and talk to you in detail. Don't worry about these four people, don't sympathize with them, don't hate them, lest they be used by others, leave the full power to Zhu Qing, she has experience."

Wang Xue agreed sadly. She knew that she was not qualified, but she also wanted to share her husband's worries. Let Zhu Qing do all these things, okay?

Xue Xun said patiently: "Do you still remember Liu Bang's evaluation of himself when he conquered the world?"

"I am not as good as Zifang in strategizing and decisively winning thousands of miles away; I am not as good as Xiao He in governing the country, caring for the people, giving them money, and keeping food and roads; even with millions of people, I am not as good as Xiao He. Han Xin. The three are all outstanding people, and I can use them, so I take the world." This allusion Xue Xun has given Xue Wang's science popularization many times, and Xue Wang began to recite it as soon as it was mentioned.

"Yeah, those in high positions are not good at generals, they are only good at generals. You are the mistress of the house, as long as you know how to employ people. Are all emperors good at civil affairs and military affairs? They are just good at employing people. On the other hand... ..."

"The higher-ranking person has self-knowledge, and if he doesn't order the experts, he can do everything properly and sit back and relax." Xue Wang began to endorse again. She was just uncomfortable for a while, but soon figured it out, and said with a smile: "Brother Hao, don't worry, I I understand, I will definitely live up to your repeated teachings."

"It's all what a husband should do. Teach your son face to face, teach your wife next to your pillow, huh? Ma'am, give me a chance to teach my wife." Xue Xun's expression was ambiguous, and Xue Wang's face turned red with embarrassment.

These four beauties were taught by Zhu Qing, and finally decided to remove them according to the situation.Zhu Qing originally stood out from the training of the hidden guards. Although the training direction is different, as long as she stands there, she is a living example for the four beauties, and she is not afraid that they will not be tempted.Zhu Qing took over this matter, so Xue Xun didn't have to worry about it anymore.

The imperial court didn't even bother to pay attention to the four beauties who were wandering around like leisure chess. As soon as Xue Xun's refusal of the imperial court's appropriation paper came up, the imperial court exploded.It is said that the emperor smashed the study on the spot and angrily reprimanded Xue Xun for "not knowing how to flatter".

Seeing Xue Xun's refusal, the others hesitated. Could it be that the money was so hot that Xue Xun dared not take it.Later, when Xue Xun said "my family is not short of money", everyone was relieved.Well, it can't be compared with the rich and powerful Xue family, who would think too much money?Everyone accepts the imperial court's appropriation with peace of mind, and not all forces are short-sighted. They only want to make money, and some want to build fiefdoms. Now that the imperial court is giving money, they are happy to buy people's hearts.

The imperial court then issued another edict, reminding everyone that when the emperor ascended the throne, he gave amnesty to the world, announced the abolition of corvee, and that all projects should not be recruited from the people, and they had to find their own way to complete.The imperial edict reminds everyone not to know the law and break the law, don't say it is unpredictable, if you break the law, the emperor will not forgive you lightly.

It seemed that the emperor was unwilling to give money in vain, and wanted to make things difficult for them. These people were smiling, and such a small trick could not be difficult.They have a large number of auxiliary soldiers under their command. These auxiliary soldiers occupy the name of soldiers, but in fact they are transportation teams and logistics teams composed of civilians. When the official army cannot be sacrificed, they also serve as cannon fodder.Let them build the project, and save a lot of money.

Things seemed to be going in a good direction. There was no problem for a year or two, and people began to laugh at Xue Xun for being timid and afraid of getting into trouble. He lost a lot of money in vain.

Xue Xun was noncommittal. He was also building water conservancy projects. Not only did he not need money from the court, but he also outsourced the projects to commercial construction teams.No soldiers, no auxiliary soldiers, let alone corvee, directly used commercial methods.There is no violation of the imperial court's decree, and of course countless money has been invested.

When the construction boom began in full swing across the country, the emperor ordered the recruitment of "elite soldiers".The decree states that construction is under way all over the country, and manpower is tight, and auxiliary soldiers from various governments are recruited to help with the construction of the project.Written as auxiliary soldiers and read as civilian husbands, the official title given to them by the emperor is "elite soldiers".Anyway, these people are also building on their own sites, as well as building on other people's sites, and the imperial court has to pay a sum of money for recruiting "elite soldiers", and it doesn't prevent them from returning to their hometown after completing the repairs, which is equivalent to making a fortune for nothing.The forces of all parties are not dissatisfied anymore, they just feel that the emperor has regarded them as his subjects, regarded this world as his world, and spared no expense to support the construction.

The decree hit a wall again with Xue Xun.Xue Xun replied in a letter, saying that there were no auxiliary soldiers under his rule, and the imperial court's decree said that the auxiliary soldiers participating in the construction should be transferred into elite soldiers.

Everyone is easy to take care of, but Xue Xun is a stick, and the emperor made a special decree to recruit "urban youths" and "country youths". he.Under Jiangxi's rule, Fuyu has begun to breed this kind of thorn, which is called "Wanderer", but it is actually a harm in the city and the countryside.

Xue Xun immediately wrote a letter to plead guilty, saying that the emperor misunderstood him. He worked hard to govern the people and achieved great results. There is absolutely no such bad person in Jiangxi.By the way, I also talked about Jiangxi's policy with the emperor. Men between the ages of six and 15 are forced to receive intensive education in rural schools, using the words of sages to teach their thoughts and regulate their behavior. Grace.Xue Xun also invented rural studies. The emperor thought that the number of candidates from Jiangxi province had increased in the past two years, but Xue Xun would use such a conspiracy. Could the emperor decree that it is not good to run a school?I have to grit my teeth and admit it.

Xue Xun is such a copper pea that can't be steamed, boiled, hammered, or fried. He is the emperor with a lot of means, but he just prevents the population under his rule from flowing out. The strict household registration system has attracted the attention of the whole country.
