Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 729
The village chief continued: "Let's talk about your second mistake, which is very serious. There are a few families with pregnant women who work less than others. But I, the Empress of the Tang Dynasty, once ordered that all pregnant women must be taken care of. Instead of giving more Some households have some rice, but it is deducted, which is not good.”

"Yes!" The Japanese man was no longer standing, but knelt on the ground.

The Japanese man next to him was moved. He even had to pay more rice if he didn't work. It seemed to break the village's rule of getting rewards according to the amount of work. But it was taking care of pregnant women. How could this not be touching.

The village head stretched out his hand to help: "The third mistake, someone stole food while transporting rewards from Kumamoto City. You didn't punish. This is not a personal grievance, but a violation of the rules of the village."

"Yes!" The Japanese just stood up and knelt down again.

"The last mistake. This mistake just hit you impulsively. It's not a big mistake. Instead, you should be rewarded. You gave some more charcoal cakes to the elderly in several families. You did the right thing. The mistake is that you didn't Report, do you think this village chief is unkind? Doesn’t know how to care for the elderly.”

"Yes, yes, yes." The Japanese man burst into tears after being told by the village chief.

"Beating you is to love you. I hope you can be very good. In the future, we will build more mulberry forests and the income will be better. If one day, any of you have the opportunity to become the village head of the new village, you Just because of my painstaking efforts. Get up, did you hurt from the beating just now? You are a good boy."

The Japanese didn't know much Chinese, he could mix the local dialect and Chinese, and he kept talking non-stop while hugging the village head's feet.

Changsun Wuji's people could no longer understand what the Japanese man was saying, but his expression seemed to be very grateful.

Quietly retreated, and returned to the mountain city to tell Changsun Wuji what he had heard.

Changsun Wuji turned sideways: "Thank you, old man, within three days, the official documents of the Donggang Shipping Department's inspection and management must be sent to the mansion. This position is equivalent to the imperial court's sixth-rank foreign official. Remember not to mention the imperial court here. official position."

Xie Zheng was excited, and immediately bowed: "Uncle Guo, don't worry, the little old man should try his best to handle the affairs of each village well."

"Thank you for your courtesy. The handling of this matter is indeed excellent, but you must pay attention to cultivating a group of real masters of mulberry planting among the Japanese who are loyal to my Tang Dynasty. I received a message that 67 counties in the south of the Yangtze River It's scary to receive an order for silk!" Changsun Wuji used scary to describe the number of orders.

Xie Zheng understood that it was also difficult for this uncle.

Although he is a housekeeper of the Xie family, and there is no first housekeeper, but he was in charge of the shop and business of the Xie family.

Even in Jiangnan in the former Sui Dynasty, he had never seen it, let alone heard of it since he was a child, and he had never heard of a workshop whose silk had not yet been produced, but was already waiting for goods.

We must know that the most important consideration for silk shops every year is how to compete, how to ensure that their production capacity can be turned into silk, and silk can be turned into coins.

But now, the Xie family's silk workshop has increased by more than ten times, but there is not even half a bolt of silk in the warehouse.

But this time, in order to supplement the linen demand of the West Port Shipping Division and the linen demand of Wajima, the Donggang Shipping Division almost bought out the entire cloth workshop in the south of the Yangtze River.

If it weren't for not being able to buy enough cloth, it would be impossible for the rewards originally planned on Wajima before the New Year to be delayed until the Shangyuan Festival.

While Xie Zheng was still feeling emotional, Changsun Wuji said again: "Inspector Xie, remember not to let the Japanese see any secrets. You can't entrust this matter you designed to anyone who is not reliable."

"Uncle Guo, don't worry, my people in the Tang Dynasty care about the Tang Dynasty."

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you." Changsun Wuji nodded in satisfaction.

Those who went to inspect the mulberry forests also came back, and the numbers reported were exactly the same as those reported by the village. It can be said that these villages did not make false reports, so Changsun Wuji can really look forward to this year's spring silkworm harvest.

Xie Zheng is not young anymore, in Xie's family he put down many things because of his age, but this time he came to Wa Island because Xie's family knew how much Liu Mu valued Wa Island, so they sent an elite old butler in the family.

At this age, he could still be recommended as an official again.

Even if he was only an official for one day, Xie Zheng felt that his life was not in vain if he received official official documents from the Tang court for one day.

Xie Zheng left. In order to be afraid that he would work too hard here due to his age, Changsun Wuji specially sent him eight strong followers to run around the village, either in a carriage or carrying them. Xie Zheng must not be allowed to go because of the journey. And hard work, accompanied by four shrewd humble scholars.

Xie Zheng was being carried away with a slider, and Changsun Wuji waved to the side.

Four humble scholars in their early 20s, wearing silk on the outside and linen on the inside, have just enlisted and came to Wa Island.Facing the highest official here, and also the uncle of the Tang Dynasty, the four showed due respect.

"Let me and you, beside Inspector Xie, what do you think should be done."

The oldest of the four stepped forward: "Reporting to the official to know, first of all, to assist Inspector Xie's ideas to be implemented. Second, to ensure the effect of implementation in various villages. Finally, to learn, I will work hard , I hope Inspector Xie can pass on his brilliant moves."

"Very good. Remember, it is a good thing to read a lot, but don't forget the talents of strange people."

"Remember, sir."

Changsun Wuji waved: "Go, don't let me down."

"Yes!" After saluting again, the four quickly caught up with Xie Zheng's slider.

The idlers left, Changsun Wuji smiled and said to the officials around him: "I think this trick of slapping the face has a miraculous effect, go back and prepare the official documents, and send them to the General Shipping Department in encrypted form for reporting."

"Yes!"

Changsun Wuji looked at the village again, with the smile on his face undiminished. Instead of entering the village, he ordered to go to the village again next time.

In the village, the village head sat down after beating people, and his grandson brought a pot of tea, and then the two village elders also sat down with the ledger, but they took the teapot and poured themselves a bowl first.

"Old Xie, you are indeed the one who has been the shopkeeper of the Xie family." An old man said cheerfully.

"No nonsense, it's just a small shop that was ordered to take care of it for less than two months. It counts as the shopkeeper there. However, we people are here, but we have taken on a big responsibility. Don't dare to neglect it. We will be there as soon as this festival is over. Get to work now."

Another old man said in a low voice at this time: "My son is working in a big city, and someone in the city has heard something about the capital, and it has something to do with us."

"what's up?"

"I heard that Concubine Liu asked the General Secretary to formally write a note to the four major silk industry associations and the state capitals, and pointed out several places, one of which is Wa Island. This concubine wants to see real imperial silk. I am a brave old man. Convinced, it's just this real royal silk."
