Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 51
As soon as the wine was put away, Wang Zhixian listened outside the tent, and his companion said loudly: "Lieutenant Li and the others are here."

Wang Zhixian's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said, "Just say that I don't... Uh, Xiao Ying, what are you doing standing there, quickly invite the two generals to come in."

As soon as the curtain of the tent was lifted, two school captains who came to pay for the money and food stood in front of the tent with a wooden face, each holding a ledger.Wang Zhixian froze instantly.

The wind roared outside, and the blown leaves fell one after another. Looking at the amount of money and food missing listed on the ledger like running water, Wang Zhixian's lips trembled, and his hair turned gray again with worry.

The errands on the river seemed endless.

I just went to Hades for a meeting yesterday.He said a few words about how to welcome the imperial envoy, and the most important point he emphasized was that before the imperial envoy came, the projects in various places had to be finished, and they had to be finished beautifully.

If it is said that An Guogong is the king of Hades, who kills the stars, then this imperial envoy, Liu Huang, and Liu Ziming are elm lumps who have become fine for thousands of years.

Wangzhi County passed the Jinshi examination back then, and worked in the third division to build a case. Fortunately, he worked under Liu Ziming's hands. As a result, within a month, because he didn't see that 23 extra bricks and tiles were used in the renovation of An Guogong's mansion, Liu Ziming confiscated it Monthly salary for three months.

How much is 23 bricks worth?He said he couldn't even pay for it!

Unlike other officials, Wangzhi County is poor, and his family lives on his salary. Once the salary was confiscated, Wang Zhixian had to go around to fight the famine with his colleagues. Since then, hearing Liu Ziming's name makes his legs weak , Hurry up and find an expatriate, away from the capital.

Now An Guogong and Liu Gong are going to gather together on top of his head, Wang Zhixian shuddered, he felt the color of the sky and the earth change, and the earth trembled.

So in terms of money and food, there really can't be any mistakes.

He has been working overtime, but there are so many things that he can never finish.

"Lieutenant Li, Captain Xiao, don't worry about money and food. I will give you what I promise. Come on, eat something first, and I will explain it to you in detail. Don't worry, the Duke has an order, at least in our brave army. The 'drifting' you imagined will not happen."

Wang Zhixian let the two captains to the table first, and then personally asked Lao Du to prepare a few dishes.

Lieutenant Li didn't sit still, he patted the table and stared: "I don't even want to eat, right now, right now, brother Wang, give me what we deserve, I'm short on time, I really don't have time to eat with you .”

"I promised my brothers that if you work well at night, your wages will be increased by [-]%. If I spit and nail each other, then what I say will count for what I say. If it sounds like farting, then will anyone listen? You promised at the beginning. Allocate money and food, but now it’s not enough, if you don’t give it, what should I do? Cut the meat to feed the brothers?”

"All of you who are officials, let my brother complete the task within half a year. It's easy for you to say, or if you go up, you can go to command and see if half a year is enough for the construction period. ?”

"Brother Wang, we are also old friends, you can't cheat brother."

Wang Zhixian had a smile on his face, and when he saw the wine that Gu Xiang sent on the table, he simply reached out and poured it for the two of them: "That's definitely not possible, but now the military is spending a lot of money, so we have to prioritize... ... come and drink."

"Don't talk so much nonsense, I..."

Li Xiaowei's nose twitched, and his tongue was full of saliva, "I... just have a drink, and you quickly prepare the money and food."

A glass of wine slipped from the tip of his tongue into his throat, Xiaowei Li's eyes froze slightly, and he felt his mouth full of fragrance.

Gum!

He couldn't resist pouring another glass.

Captain Xiao had already drank the third cup silently.

Wang Zhixian glanced at it, heaved a sigh of relief, quickly called his companion outside the door, and said in a low voice: "Go and bring the third wooden box from the east of my tent."

As he said that, he smiled all over his face: "You two eat first, and I will deal with business."

Captain Li hesitated for a moment, but his face was no longer so eager, he just said: "Then, hurry up with my business, brother is really waiting for the rice to cook, if I can't bring the money and food back, the errand will not be completed in the end... Hey."

Sorrow is on my heart and mind, and I can't help but drink a glass of wine. Once the wine enters my throat, all the troubles will disappear like spring wind and rain.

……

The originally clear sky suddenly moved a large cloud.

Zhang Daochang stood outside the tent of the brave army, staring at the two magpies on the branches.

Lieutenant Zhou held the wine jar that had just arrived and hadn't been warmed up yet, and walked respectfully to Zhang Daochang's side.

This Daoist Zhang, Zhang Zhengduo, is exactly Mr. Wuwang from Qingguan on Longhu Mountain, and his senior brother is the famous Mr. Zhenjing Zhang Zhengsui during the late emperor's time.

In today's Taoist sect, Daoist Zhang is highly respected, and even His Majesty today regards him as a guest of honor.

The Zhou family once owed Daoist Zhang a big favor. At that time, the elder sister of Zhou Xianwei's compatriot fell to the ground and fainted. It seemed that things were not going well. It was all because Daoist Zhang was there at the time and rescued her sister with a pill of the magic medicine Huichundan. The Zhou family immediately prepared He paid a lot of money as a gift, but Zhang Daochang lost sight of the head and tail, and drifted away after saving people, and has never been seen since.

Unexpectedly, Taoist Zhang came to the door on his own initiative today.

Although County Captain Zhou was surprised and didn't understand why Daoist Zhang wanted to buy the wine from Chef Gu, he definitely couldn't refuse.

He shook his sleeves and bowed slightly: "Master..."

Before he finished speaking, the wine jar in his hand disappeared, Zhou Xianwei was startled, and when he looked up, he saw Daoist Zhang holding the wine jar with both hands, his eyes shining, and he was still muttering something, but he didn't know what he was talking about.

After a while, Daoist Zhang took out a waist card from his pocket and handed it to County Captain Zhou: "Let your father take my belt card to Shangqingguan to get the money. This is three catties of wine, so it counts as a thousand gold. The old Taoist recently Money is tight, so I will take advantage of you. I owe you a favor, and I will help your Zhou family do what I can in the future."

County Captain Zhou: "..."

When Daoist Zhang dragged his Taoist boy away and disappeared without a trace, Zhou County Wei came back to his senses hesitantly: "A... thousand gold?"

The Zhou family is rich and has a large population, and their family life is considered luxurious, but three 5000 taels of silver a year is enough to spend.

A thousand pieces of gold?Ordinary people will never see so much gold in their lifetime.

He raised his head again to look for Daoist Zhang, but he couldn't see him for a long time, County Captain Zhou felt a little confused, shook his head, and walked to find Wang Zhixian, intending to go to the embankment with him to have a look.

Lieutenant Zhou had something on his mind, so he entered Wangzhi County's tent without knowing it, his eyes fell on the messy cups and plates, the people lying on the table, and the empty wine jars lying on the ground.

With a pause in his footsteps, the muscles on Zhou Xianwei's face twitched: "A thousand pieces of gold!"

Wang Zhixian hurriedly cleaned up the account books: "What? Wait for me, I just put these two down."

County Captain Zhou's expression was indescribable: he felt that it was better not to tell this guy.
