Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1598 Raising Pigeons

After Qin Tian and the others left, the atmosphere here at the Imperial City Station suddenly became a little dignified.

"Your Majesty thinks our efficiency here is low, and even Young Master Qin came here in person. What should we do?"

"Will the imperial court lay off staff? I heard that Young Master Qin thinks we have too many people here."

"What, if there is a layoff, what should I do? I have an old man and a young man, and I can support my family with my little salary."

"Who is not, let's go to Mr. Yi Cheng to find out."

"Okay, okay, this has to be asked. Even if the layoffs are real, we should find a way out as soon as possible."

"........."

After a group of people discussed in this way, they went to find Yicheng Huang Dong.

When these people came, Huang Dong was frowning in his office.

Those people here are worried about whether they will be laid off and whether they will lose their livelihood jobs because of this, while what he is worried about is whether the court will get angry and punish him.

After all, the efficiency of delivering letters at the post station is not high, and their post station has a lot of responsibility, and as the postman of the Huangcheng post station, he bears the brunt of it.

Hearing that the people from the post station came one by one, Huang Dong's face was slightly ugly.

"It's really annoying, don't you know that I'm also bothered?"

After muttering to himself, Huang Dong still sent someone to call those people over.

After these people came, they hesitated a little, but Huang Dong was the first to speak: "Are you worried about losing your jobs here?"

"Yes, Master Huang, I heard that Young Master Qin thinks we have a little more people here."

"Master Huang, will the imperial court lay off staff? At my age, I will organize memorials, or arrange board and lodging for officials. After leaving here, I don't know what to do. And below me, There are still a few children to feed."

"Master Huang, what is the imperial court thinking?"

"........."

These people were talking in a hurry, and they were all nervous. Huang Dong was also a little irritable, but when he met them, he slowly regained his calm.

"Everyone, the imperial court does feel that the efficiency of the post station is a bit low, and wants to carry out some reforms, but how to reform, I don't even know now."

Speaking of this, seeing the disappointed expressions of the crowd, Huang Dong said again: "But everyone, don't worry, Mr. Qin is not the kind of person who will kill everyone. Even if reforms are made, he will definitely find a way out for you. Don't worry, it is gone."

Huang Dong himself didn't believe this, but he knew that it was always good to give these people a little hope.

The inn is so big, there are about two hundred people, there must be a lot of people who like to make a living here, and there must be a lot of people who strive for fame and fortune, but there are more people like them, who rely on this job to support the whole family.

As for these people, Huang Dong really didn't want to let them down.

With Mr. Yicheng's words, these people felt relieved to some extent, and after muttering a little more, they finally left.

Looking at the backs of these people leaving, Huang Dong couldn't help sighing.

Sometimes it is not easy for people to live. Maybe the burden of a family will be on one person.

After Qin Tian and Cheng Chumo left the post station, they rode towards Chang'an City on horseback.

On the way, Qin Huaiyu asked: "Brother Qin, how are you going to reform the post station? They have many problems."

"If you want me to say, just cut off some people, so that they don't leave their corpses for a vegetarian meal."

Qin Tian rode on horseback, but he was not in a hurry to answer. After a long time, he finally opened his mouth and said: "What's wrong with it, don't rush to fix it. The most urgent thing is to improve the efficiency of sending letters first. The efficiency of sending letters is improved. That's it, the rest will be solved slowly."

"However, the disadvantages remain unchanged. How to improve efficiency is the exchange of letters between these two stations. If you want to increase the speed, there is no other way but to increase the number of stations in the middle. After you put on a good horse, it will naturally be faster. "

This is the only way Cheng Chumo and the others think.

Qin Tian smiled slightly and didn't respond to this, but asked, "Do you like raising pigeons?"

Hearing this question, several other people were a little surprised. They were discussing how to improve the efficiency of delivering letters at the post station. Why did Qin Tian suddenly get involved in raising pigeons?

"Brother Qin, you want to raise pigeons. I am familiar with this. I have been to the places where pigeons are raised in Chang'an City, the capital. I go to catch them in the capital on weekdays." Speaking of this, Cheng Chumo smiled again: "It smells old. It’s so beautiful, put it in the pot for a while, the soup is very delicious.”

After hearing the latter sentence, Qin Tian was speechless. He thought Cheng Chumo liked to raise pigeons, but it turned out that he liked to eat pigeons.

"I'm not going to eat pigeons. I want to raise pigeons. When you get back to Chang'an City, you can find some pigeons for me. Remember, as long as they're one or two months old, the ones that just came out of the nest, all kinds of pigeons. I want pigeons, after you get them, just bring them to my house."

Seeing that Qin Tian really wanted to raise all kinds of things, Cheng Chumo and the others were also a little speechless, instead of doing business, they raised pigeons.

However, they all knew that Qin Tian must have his own purpose in everything he did, so they all nodded after hesitating for a while.

"Brother Qin wants to raise pigeons, so there's nothing wrong with that. Don't worry, we'll look for it right away."

"That's right, Brother Qin, as much as you want, we can find out for you."

After talking like this, several people entered Chang'an City. At this time, it was already dusk.

At dusk at the end of autumn, Chang'an City felt cold.

The autumn wind is raging, and the bleakness is boundless.

After Qin Tian told them again, he went straight back home, and Cheng Chumo and the others went home together, they kind of dropped by.

"What do you say Brother Qin wants to raise pigeons? According to him, it doesn't seem like he wants to eat meat?"

"Qin Wuyou doesn't seem like someone who likes to play with pigeons, it's really strange."

"Okay, what Brother Qin asked us to do, we just have to do it. When Brother Qin makes a name for himself, we will naturally know what Brother Qin is going to do."

"Yes, yes, let's go. I will take you to catch pigeons tomorrow. I know all the places where pigeons are raised in Chang'an City. I will treat you to roast pigeons tomorrow..."

A few teenagers rode horses across the long street, and the afterglow of the setting sun stretched their backs for a long time.

From time to time, there were a few loud laughs, which reminded people of the chivalry of a young man, who made friends with Wu Duxiong.

Aren't they at the age of youthful chivalry?
No worries in this life.

As the group drifted away, the east and west cities of Chang'an City were still bustling and bustling, and everything here was no different from usual.

On the highest attic in the palace, Li Shimin stood on the top and overlooked the entire long street, and he immediately felt very comfortable.

Right now, try Chang'an, Li Shimin's Chang'an City.
