Chapter 247: Fish soup is very good
Chapter 247 The fish soup is very good
In the kitchen of the post house, there are fresh tender tofu, green onion, **** and garlic. Chu Nanzhi used these ready-made ingredients to cook a pot of chopped green onion, tofu and crucian carp soup.
Leading Sibao to serve a delicious bowl of crucian carp soup and returning to the wing room, Lin Jinxiao was sitting at the desk reading books, and there was Liu Shuyang beside the tea table.
Smelling the delicious smell, Liu Shuyang immediately got up and greeted him, and praised him full of praise: "The dishes cooked by the eldest sister are delicious, and the smell makes my mouth hungry."
"Didn't you go to eat with Saburo?"
Chu Nanzhi asked with a smile.
"He accompanied Mr. Hu to the county government office."
After Liu Shuyang finished speaking, a blush appeared on his fair face, and he asked embarrassingly, "Sister, this is the first time I have traveled so far. Do you think I should buy something for my cousin and give it to her?"
"Her."
The corners of Chu Nanzhi's mouth slightly raised into a wicked smile: "Then you **** girl will be happy if you bring Tuo Xiang back to her."
"Oh, where can I buy Xiang?"
Liu Shuyang asked in a daze.
He had never heard of such a thing, nor did he know what it was.
Chu Nanzhi glanced at the dishes on the table, and suddenly felt that the crucian carp soup in her hand was no longer fragrant. She slowly withdrew her smile, and said solemnly, "Let's all sit down and eat."
He went to the desk and helped Lin Jinxiao to sit over, served each of them with a bowl of fish soup, looked at Liu Shuyang's puzzled face, and was afraid that he would discuss Xiang's problem with him again at this time, so he quickly gave him a trick: "Azhu and your second sister are both of the same virtue. They only like some rouge powder on weekdays. You can just buy her a box of rouge."
Actually, Chu Nanzhu's temperament doesn't need Liu Shuyang to buy her anything, as long as this little son-in-law can watch over her to live in peace, that stinky girl will be satisfied.
But it's a good thing for the little son-in-law to have this kind of heart. It's rare that he cares about that girl so much.
"Then listen to the eldest sister."
Liu Shuyang replied with a smile, and went to drink the fish soup.
Seeing that everyone began to taste the fish soup seriously, Chu Nanzhi told the little son-in-law again: "Shu Yang, after you go back this time, you should learn the craft from the old carpenter Wang, and when you and the old carpenter Wang After the research I said is thorough, ask me to buy materials and shops with money."
"How can I let the elder sister pay for the money again, Master and I will figure out a way by ourselves."
Liu Shuyang didn't want to be looked down upon by her eldest sister and brother-in-law, so she said swearingly.
"You don't have to worry about the money."
It's only a few dozen taels of silver at most, and she doesn't care about profit or loss, and asking him to do this is just to test and experience him.
Chu Nanzhi took a sip of the fish soup, then continued to say after deliberation: "At that time, I will share 20% of the dry stock for each of you master and apprentice. If you lose money, it will be mine, and if you win, everyone will share."
After thinking about it, she added: "If you encounter any problems, please feel free to ask me, and I can help you with ideas."
"Don't worry big sister, I will do whatever you want me to do."
Liu Shuyang replied obediently.
Lin Jinxiao silently drank three bowls of fish soup, showing an intoxicated expression on his face, looked at Chu Nanzhi radiantly, with the corners of his seductive mouth slightly bent, and said with a sincere smile: "The fish soup is very good, I am very satisfied with my husband. "
After finishing speaking, he took his crutches and got up in a hurry, and while turning outside, he continued: "I have to go to the county government to discuss with Peng Sanlang about disaster relief and coastal defense, you"
If he wanted to be a husband, he would go to the county government office and glance at her meaningfully, feeling embarrassed to say what was on his mind.
Seeing that he didn't go out immediately, Chu Nanzhi told him, "I'll prepare some dishes in the afternoon. After you finish talking, let Peng Dianshi and Mr. Hu come to the inn for dinner."
"it is good."
Lin Jinxiao responded indifferently, and left the posthouse straight away.
Haikang County Government Office
Hu Maoxi and Peng Pai led all the officials in the county to wait in the conference room at the back hall. When they saw Lin Jinxiao leading a few yamen servants in, they immediately bowed their hands and waited for him to sit in the hall. The volume was handed over respectfully.
Lin Jinxiao flipped through the submitted copy and heard Peng Pai say:
"Yesterday, the lower officials searched the property of offending officials, powerful and evil gentry overnight. The property confiscated from the basement of Kang Mingyuan's mansion was converted into a total of 453,000 taels of silver. Nearly 30,000 taels of silver were seized from the home of the master secretary Tan Miao. A total of 600,000 taels of silver were found in more than ten homes of the Tang Yi Party, and the rest of the heinous traders and powerful property included in the confiscated list are still being counted.”
Hearing this, Lin Jinxiao slapped the desk in front of him heavily, and angrily reprimanded: "However, the level of corruption is so bad in Haikang County."
Hu Maoxi couldn't stop shaking his head angrily when he heard this, and sighed secretly: I was an official, and I was still in a big county like Luyan Port, and all these years I just saved tens of thousands of taels of silver from rich and powerful families. Being able to embezzle so much property in Momo really fulfilled the old saying that "being an official for one term is not as good as Haikang County" for a year.
Seeing that the Shangguan was angry, Peng Pai lowered his head halfway, and his next words became much more cautious: "In addition to incomplete statistics, there are nearly 80,000 mu of land occupied by officials and powerful and evil gentry in Haikang County."
Hu Maoxi gritted his teeth when he heard this, and finally couldn't help saying: "Haikang County has only 200,000 mu of arable land, but it has to feed more than 300,000 people. These devoid of conscience can't give people a way out."
Lin Jinxiao's face was uncertain for a while, and the anger in his eyes gradually dissipated. He calmly looked at Hu Maoxi, and asked slowly, "How is Mr. Hu's statistics on the property confiscated in the past two days?"
Hu Maoxi carefully handed over the volume of copywriting in his hand, and replied truthfully: "All kinds of gold, silver and jade ornaments equivalent to nearly 300,000 taels of silver were seized from the Dongsang people's hiding place in Qinyuan Village, plus the smuggled items seized in the past few days The salt merchants and several officials and commanders involved in the Yandao Yamen have a total of 59,000 taels."
After finishing speaking, he took out a few volumes of letters from his sleeve, handed them to Lin Jinxiao, examined them and said, "These letters were also intercepted from the Dongsang people's hiding place, and if they are going to be sent to the county, these thieves must have Getting ready to bribe county officials."
Just as Lin Jinxiao put the letter aside, Peng Pai also took a wooden box and handed it to him solemnly, saying, "This is all the letters and criminal evidence of Kang Mingyuan's bribery to the county governor and several adults over the years. Lord Lin please handle it as appropriate."
"I will truthfully report the evidence of Dongsang people and Kang Mingyuan's involvement with county officials to the court. Next, I will talk about disaster relief and coastal defense."
Lin Jinxiao looked around the officials in the hall with deep eyes, and said sharply:
"Currently, Han Jiaoyu is the only senior official in Haikang County, and many government offices at other levels have been investigated and dealt with. Although those who can sit safely in the hall today are not like Kang Mingyuan and other heinous criminals, many of them Over the years, people have raided the common people, and even aided the evildoers, I will not pursue what happened in the past, but if someone dares to commit another crime in the future, I will definitely not forgive them lightly."
As soon as he said this, the guards of the various districts, the officials of all ranks, including the history of meritorious service, the warden, the post, the tax ambassador, the warehouse ambassador, the Hepo officer, the gate officer, etc., all nodded in fear. Yes.
Even Hu Maoxi felt a little scared when he looked at the fierce and sinister eyes.
I have known him for several years, and he always showed a cold and aloof look. To say that his most gentle eyebrows and eyes have only been seen these days in the elegant room on the east side of the post house over the years.
If one had seen him in his gentlest appearance, no one would have believed that this guy was the stern imperial censor who beheaded the imperial court officials in an instant in the downtown area.
Oh, man!
