Chapter 304 A Blessing in Misfortune
"Fathers and folks, I, Xiao Chen, am sorry for everyone." Xiao Chen was quite ashamed.
If he hadn't happened to witness the experience in this small shop, he wouldn't have known about it.
As the governor, it is dereliction of duty!
The big guys all expressed their understanding, Mr. Xiao, you have only been here for a few days?
Since then, you have been leading troops to fight against the Xianbo people, and you have beaten them into obedience. Then you opened a mutual market with them in northern Xinjiang, so that everyone can make a living here.
It's too late for us to be grateful to you. If I'm sorry, where do I really start!
We only hope that you will stay in Yanyun County forever, so that the big guy will have a better life in the future...
A group of Xiao cavalry guards talked all kinds of things, which made the big guys disperse. After walking a long way, they all looked back reluctantly.
Yan Luo ordered twenty brothers, Li Zheng and others, to be escorted to the post station and locked up, and they will be sent to Bailong City early tomorrow morning!
"Yan Luo, do you have any silver with you?" Xiao Chen asked suddenly.
"Ah? Silver?" Yan Luo was confused.
"We still owe him the meal money, and the hotel money later... Do you have any, kid?" Tie Kunlun asked anxiously.
"I don't have any silver, but I still have a few pieces of gold." Yan Luo took out a few taels of gold ingots from his bosom, which were brought along from his eldest brother Xiao Ye.
"Forget I borrowed from you, and return it later." Xiao Chen grabbed them all honestly, and handed one to Xiu'er casually, "Miss Xiu'er, I have to trouble you to go to the store next door to buy some wine, meat and meals. Buy more, let's There are more than a hundred people."
"Hey!" Xiu'er grabbed it, turned around and ran away.
Zhang Beishan invited everyone to the store, but he became embarrassed, there are so many people and there are not so many tables and chairs, what should we do.
But seeing Xiu'er rushing back again, "Master Xiao, what you gave me is not money!"
It's not silver, it's gold, or ten taels of gold ingots.
I went to a few stores and didn't buy anything. The boss said, girl, do you want to buy wine and meat or a store? How many to buy?
What a joke!
Who the hell can make up for such a big gold ingot?
Wait, you want to buy wine and meat for Master Xiao and the others?
Then what more money do you need, go back and wait, the wine and meat will be delivered immediately!
Before the wine and meat arrived, the Yi Cheng arrived first. As soon as he entered the door, he knelt down and kowtowed without saying a word. The villain has no eyes, and he deserves death!
"Hey, I made a mistake kneeling, Mr. Xiao is here!" Tie Kunlun said with a smile, "You may really have a bad eye."
As soon as Yi Cheng raised his head, he realized that he was kneeling on the embarrassed and flushed girl Xiu'er.
Quickly kneel down and walk a few steps, kowtow to Fu Yan again and again, Mr. Xiao, I am blind...
Everyone laughed, this guy looked scared and stupid.
"Get up quickly, what's your crime?" Xiao Chen said with a smile, "What's your name, have you eaten? Let's eat together later."
"Villain Zhu Fu, that one hasn't eaten yet... The villain should be damned!" Although Yicheng's eyes are not very good, he is also diligent in his work. He has been busy taking care of the convoy driving at night, and he really hasn't eaten yet.
But I'm not in the mood to eat.
I just saw that Master Li Zheng from Wenyang County has been captured by Mr. Xiao, and he will be sent to Bailong City to do hard labor tomorrow!
I guess I should have one too...
"You can't see well, and your ears don't work. The boss said you're not guilty, why are you making so much noise? Hurry up and get us some tables and chairs. Haven't you seen so many people standing?" Tie Kunlun said angrily.
"Hey!" Zhu Fu just got up, but his legs were so weak that he couldn't walk at all due to trembling, he was still in shock.
It was the two guards who followed outside who looked at him, hurried over to pick him up, and ran away stumbling all the way.
After a while, shopkeepers from the surrounding area rushed to the table with their assistants carrying burdens, food boxes, and wine jars. Sauced beef, boiled mutton, horse meat buns, and steamed buns with big mouths were all on the table. swing up.
give money? don't want!
Mr. Xiao, apart from Li Zheng's great scourge, from now on we won't have to pay a few taels of silver in tax every day. Isn't this amount of money worth the money for wine and meat?
Besides, honoring you, Lord Xiao, is something we should honor our ancestors. Others have no chance if they want to honor you!
Fu Yan said that everyone can rest assured that all the taxes and fees you paid before, as well as any venue fees, will be refunded in full, and there will be no less money!
Oops!
What can I say?
How about we slaughter a few more sheep? Or?
The bosses were all smiling, and unexpectedly there was a surprise.
This is not the only surprise.
Xiao Chen asked Yicheng to help change the gold ingots into silver, and asked Xiu'er to send them to these bosses, and no matter what the value of the things they sent, they would give them twenty taels of silver!
If you don't accept it, say it's my lord's reward.
Made a few bosses very embarrassed, how did you say this?
Originally, it was a good idea to honor your old man, but in the end I gave you ten times the reward!
Did the owners of other shops turn red with envy after hearing the news? It's not that they are envious of them earning such a large amount of money, but they are envious of them receiving Master Xiao's reward!
This is really a matter of Guangzong Yaozu.
Miss Xiu'er, you really don't mean it, why don't you come to my house to buy meat? far away? So what if you run two extra steps at such a young age!
In the future, don't think about crediting things in our store, let me tell you!
Zhu Fu, the postman, thought he had caused a disaster, but unexpectedly he got a big blessing.
First of all, you have heard of Yicheng who can eat at the same table with the governor?
The little brother is not talented, but he once accompanied our Lord Xiao to a drink, is this bragging to you?
Who else is here, you ask?
General Xiao Ye, General Duan Linger, Mr. Fu Yan, the guards of Tie Kunlun, General Yan Luo, and the brothers of Xiaoqiwei...
At that time, Master Xiao personally tested the younger brother of the school, and the younger brother's answer was really smooth and smooth. Master Xiao was very happy, and even rewarded the younger brother with a gold ingot, which weighs ten taels!
Grandma Te originally wanted to keep it and pass it on to her children and grandchildren, but she was abruptly divided by the shameless guys under her command, saying that she wanted to share in the glory of her younger brother and share the blessings bestowed by Master Xiao, hahaha !
No one said that Zhu Fu's words were bragging. Firstly, it seemed to be true, and secondly, he didn't dare to question it at all, because when Zhu Fu said this, he was already the magistrate of Wenyang County...
But Zhang Beishan has benefited the most from this incident. From tonight onwards, he has become prosperous.
Because his shop has become a landmark building in this area.
It was also officially named Lingxiu Garden. It is said that the words on the plaque were inscribed by Mr. Fu Yan himself.
The wooden houses look ordinary, but they are the foundation reinforced by Mr. Xiao Chen, the walls plastered by Mr. Fu Yan, the piles made by General Xiao Ye, the mud made by the iron guards, and the mud made by Miss Linger. Xiaoqiwei's men are all small workers...
So coming here to eat is not to eat, but to worship.
Later, more and more people gathered here, and gradually formed a town. Because Lingxiu Garden was so famous, this small town was called Lingxiu City.
