Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 257;

250 chapter seven;
Seeing Xiao Tong in the past, Liu Qi was still impeccable in terms of etiquette, so she hurriedly left her seat;
"The county lord, don't be like this. Visiting the old lady is a matter of generation, but you can't afford the gift of the county lord."

Liu Qi hurried over and helped Xiao Tong up to sit up, and then sat back down by herself.

"To be honest, I have resigned from the post of county magistrate, and now I am also without an official."

Li Yu and Xiao Tong looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.
"I said, Old Liu, are you suffering from insanity? If you are sick, you have to go to the medical officer to take a good look, grab a few herbs,

If it wasn't for the madness, why didn't the good county magistrate quit? "

"That's right, you are doing well, why did you resign, your family has a lot of young people, so what should I do.

I was impeached by everyone at the beginning, and the Supreme Being couldn't bear it, so I was dismissed. No one cares about you, why did you resign? "

"Hey, you two don't know something, although you have not been dismissed, you are not far away,

I can see that, rather than waiting for a few days to be taken down, it is better for me to resign obediently, at least I can be cool. "

"Where did this come from?"

"Yeah, old Liu, tell me what's going on, I'm so anxious to hear it."

"The two of you don't know something. At the end of last month, didn't the county go to sell liquor. That's why the matter started."

After Liu Qi finished speaking, she kept shaking her head and sighing, looking extremely helpless.

Li Yu was a little confused;

"Old Liu, I went to sell baijiu, why did you get involved? Why does this sound more and more confusing?"

Xiao Tong didn't speak, just looked at Liu Qi like that, waiting for his explanation.

"The magistrate doesn't remember those people who smashed the shop back then?"

"Remember, didn't the Supreme Commander order them all to be arrested?"

"It was because they were arrested that they caused trouble. Those thieves who smashed the shop were detained in the Ministry of Punishment, Wannian County, and Chang'an County.
Eighteen of them were caught in my Chang'an County, most of them were Qinghe Cui's servants, the second son of Changmen Cui Wang,

The remaining half is the servant of Wang Liye, the heir to the head of the Wang clan in Taiyuan.

The two of you also know that I am a powerless person, and I don't know anyone in the court since I was a master, so the two most difficult families are divided among me, this unlucky bastard.

According to the order from above, I beat each of them twenty big boards, and fined each of them with two coins of money for redemption.
Because of this, I was hated by the two great families. Some people participated in the court meeting and abused torture. How is it different from the actions of those torturers in the previous court?

He also said that if I let me go on like this, I will eventually cause resentment among the people and panic among the people.
In a word, I am a scum, and I must be punished for my crimes before I can give the people an explanation.
You two, I, Liu Qi, am a petty official, so I can't afford to be held down by this kind of shit.
For more than 20 days, I have lived like a year, unable to sleep at night, worried every day, when will I be questioned,

In the past few days, I was tossing and turning and having trouble falling asleep again. Shanzuma's inadvertent words woke me up. "

Xiao Tong asked with a smile;

"But remind you, resign from the official position, come to the county, and meet me again?"

Li Yu complained;
"Damn, these days, if you follow the orders of the superiors, you can cause a lot of trouble. You are really useless as the king of the county."

"Let's say it's not the case, and the county lord expected it. Shan's wife suggested, since it's so bad, why not go to the county,
It's better to be safe and secure than to be in fear all day long, just like the magistrate, this sentence woke me up.

I have always been worried and frightened, but I have gotten into a dead end without knowing it.

A word from Shanzuma made me suddenly see the light, like seeing the sun through the clouds.

When I think about it carefully, I just keep an account book, sort out various accounts, and give people a starting material.

Asking me to be the lord of a county is too difficult for me, so I resigned from my post a few days ago.
In the past few days, I have no official and a light body. It is really beautiful. After a few days of leisure at home, I came to visit the two of you.

I hope that the magistrate will find me an errand, and I will be free forever. After all, it is not a long-term solution. "

Li Yu and Xiao Tong did not speak, they listened quietly to Liu Qi's complaints, until finally finished speaking, Liu Qi breathed a sigh of relief and sat back in the grand master's chair.

The two looked at each other and nodded.

Li Yu's face was calm, but he was happy in his heart. He was worried that the new workshop could finally be put into production, but the positions of the general ledger and account room were still vacant.

It's not impossible to go to Chang'an City to invite one back, both of them are worried about outsiders coming over,
Therefore, this proposal was also discussed back and forth for seven or eight days, hesitating,

Last night, the two of them talked at night by candlelight, but they couldn't do it, so they transferred two or three accountants from the bank in the house to make do with it.

In the future, I will work hard to find, and strive to find a gentleman who can use it safely and come back as soon as possible, so that I can breathe a sigh of relief.

But it doesn't matter, the weather is beautiful today, this Liu Qi came to the door by herself,
Not only is this person honest and reliable, the key is that he is no stranger to the two of them, especially Xiao Tong, the head manager of the brewery, who has been with him for several years.
As soon as this person came, he immediately solved the problem that had troubled the two of them for half a month, how could they not like it?

Xiao Tong saw Li Yu nodding before opening his mouth;
It’s all right to talk about personal feelings with you, but I’ll tell you first,

The only errands suitable for you are breweries, general account clerks,
Recording various incoming and outgoing accounts, sorting out, and coordinating various chores are just what you are good at. "

Liu Qi knew that it was definitely the right choice for her to come to Lantian to seek refuge. Once she came, she had a good relationship with the county, but it was an old acquaintance.

Secondly, there is an old partner from the past, and Xiao Tong takes care of him, so that he can handle his errands in a stable way, and he doesn't have to be afraid of the problem of not being familiar with the place.

This time, listening to her old partner's words, she really started to turn towards her, and Liu Qi was even more sure that it was the right time.

"If the county official has something to say, please speak face to face. It's not been three or five years since you and I have been on business as a partner. You don't need to be polite, just tell the key points directly, and I can figure it out clearly. I have a good idea in my heart."

"Forget it, a certain family no longer hides it, the position of the general accountant is an important position.

The reason why it has been vacant is that I don't want to bring in some unstable people to avoid future chaos.

You are in charge of this point, but you don't have to think about it. You and I have known each other for 11 years, and we have worked together for more than eight years in Chang'an Yamen alone.

I remember back then, when I was in charge of Bo, you were still in charge of the prison. Later, when I became the county magistrate, you were in charge of Bo,

The two of us brothers have always cooperated and complemented each other, and because of this, it is reliable to know your temperament. "

When Xiao said this, he turned to look at Li Yu, and then continued;
"Judging from the relationship of more than ten years, I can say this kind of favor. Today, I don't have to avoid suspicion when the county magistrate is face to face.

Brother Yu agrees with Liu Zhubo's character, not the cunning one,

It is feasible to entrust the general ledger regardless of character and ability.
Brother Xian also thought about it, after all, I know you and me well, it's better than being an outsider. "

"Since the elder brother is interceding, the younger brother will consider it carefully, so don't think too much about it, Old Liu.

The bird county magistrate, both of them were so angry that they said what it was doing,

Living in my village, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, in our spare time, the three of you and I can drink to our heart's content, isn't it wonderful? "

"Dashan, what the county magistrate said is wonderful, thank you two for understanding..."

"Don't be overjoyed, I'll tell you the details, I'll talk about the good things, and I'll talk about the bad things, and you should be more tolerant of the serious ones.

Liu Qi returned happily;
"What is the county gentleman talking about? We've known each other for almost half our lives. What else can't be said? Just say it directly. I'm not that three-year-old child, can I still cry?"

Xiao Tong drank a glass of water, put down the tea bowl, and continued again;
"Since you agree, then I don't know the depth. According to the county, the fine wine produced will not only be sold in Chang'an City, but will eventually reach the people of the world.

Therefore, the errands in the future will not be easy. The county magistrate has considered it, and you should also consider it carefully.

In order not to complain about suffering and tiredness in the future, and drop picks halfway, at that time, where can I find someone to replace the vacancy you left? "

Liu Qi relaxed after hearing this;
"What a big deal I am, I was worried that I would not be able to start well and end well,
Don't worry, you two, since you have abandoned your post as county magistrate and come here to join you, you must be doing your job wholeheartedly.

Today, I, Liu Qi, also said harsh words, unless I have a misfortune in the future, as long as I can move for a day, I will do my job well for a day, so-and-so ~ is it feasible? "

Xiao Tong stroked his beard and smiled;

"Great goodness."

Li Yu saw that the words had been thoroughly explained and made it clear, so he laughed heartily;
"That's how the matter was settled. The two elder brothers were in Chang'an County, and they were at each other's corners.
Now that I have come to Lijiazhuang again to take care of the upper and lower levels, it is considered a blessing in heaven. The two of you can walk hand in hand again and create a grand event together.
Today, the three of you and I reunite, we should celebrate and drink fine wine, but unfortunately there is no singing and dancing in the mansion, which is a bit unsatisfactory. "

Xiao Tong and Liu Qi are more excited than Li Yu to be able to work together again,
After all, they have been old brothers for more than ten years. The two of them finally settled down, and they were both in a good mood. When they heard that Li Yu said that they wanted to eat and drink, the two of them also nodded their heads.

Suddenly I heard Li Yu say that there is no singing and dancing to add to the fun, so Xiao Tong said casually;
"What's so difficult about this? If my brother has this kindness, it will be extremely easy.
In the teaching workshop, there are groups of singers and dancers, all of whom are literate,

They are all the daughters of criminal ministers, and you can buy them without worrying about future troubles. You can entrust a few generals, spend some money, and redeem dozens of her who are proficient in rhythm and have a good appearance, and you can watch them every day.
