Their Lucky Star Was Transmigrated! Chapter 29: Wealth is the bane!
What does a subordinate do?
Simply put, a subordinate is a little **** who does things for you, takes the blame for you, breaks your legs when you have something to do, and has nothing to spare.
Of course, the subordinates also have some power in their hands. But this little bit of power is good for ordinary people. If he is a subordinate with a bad mind, he can really cause a lot of things with this little power in his hand.
Mr. Xu is talking about the heirloom of farming and reading.
Although Mr. Xu and Mr. Xu have no talent for reading, they have gone to school and are sensible.
The two brothers also understand what the subordinates do.
So when Zuoqiu said that he planned to find a subordinate errand, both of them shrank back. Fortunately, their father was not confused yet, and was not squinted by the petty profit in front of him.
"Lord, the two sons of Caomin, look at them, they don't know anything except their strength. If you really let them go to the yamen, it will only cause you trouble!"
"Besides, what Caomin does is what Caomin should do!"
"No reward!"
When Mr. Xu kept pushing and refusing Zuoqiu's reward, the village Zheng Guan Laoqi's eyes were like a hatred of iron and steel, but in front of Zuoqiu, Guan Laoqi didn't dare to interject casually.
Zuoqiu pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Xu, this official is the official side, and there is always a clear distinction between rewards and punishments. How can you not reward you for making such a great contribution today?"
"Well, in the name of the county government, this official will reward you with a hundred taels of silver!"
"Adult, can't, can't, too much, too much!"
Once he heard Zuo Qiu's words, Mr. Xu quickly waved his hand.
One hundred taels of silver, if his family suddenly got one hundred taels of silver, would they still be able to live in peace?
"Sir, the grass people really don't deserve such a reward. Otherwise, you can use the one hundred taels of silver to build roads for our village!"
If you get this one hundred taels of silver now, it will definitely be hot.
Although Mr. Xu has some tricks, the family has an extra 100 taels of silver, which will really cause a lot of trouble. At this time, it is better to do less than one thing!
Don't watch Old Master Xu showing disdain for the remnants of the previous dynasty in front of Old Madam Xu, but in his heart, he still doesn't want his family to be targeted by those people.
Therefore, these rewards, all money and other things, he can't receive.
Wealth is the bane!
Finally, under the repeated pleas of the old man Xu, Zuoqiu agreed to the proposal of the old man, and the county government paid the money to build the road. On the labor side, in addition to the normal Ding Yi, all the people in the village who participated in the road construction can get a certain amount of wages on a daily basis.
The matter was finalized, and Mr. Xu successfully gained a wave of reputation in Lingshui Village.
After all, this is a good thing for everyone who has money to make money, but everyone can benefit.
Also, the road was repaired, and the villagers followed suit.
Everything was done. Mr. Xu took the village leader and called out several elders in the village. He rectified a table of wine and vegetables at home, and graciously entertained Zuo Qiu and his party.
Chicken, duck and fish are very rich.
The chicken is a pheasant, the duck is a wild duck, the fish is caught by the villagers from the Taohua River, and the meat is rabbit meat.
In addition to these chickens, ducks and fish, there are also various vegetables and eggs.
In short, this meal is really of a high standard.
When Zuoqiu and his party were sent away, Mr. Xu went to see Mrs. Xu.
"Daughter-in-law, I have an idea!"
Mr. Xu approached Mrs. Xu and said, "Let me tell you, and you can help me figure it out!"
