Chapter 152 Miss Dai Si
Two days later, Yan Shiyi quietly returned to Beijing and entered the Green Fragrance Tower with a cheerful face.

"Shopkeeper Ji, make a pot of your most expensive new tea!" He knocked on the counter in front of Ji Baiyu a few times and said with a smile: "I am rich!"

"Then Mr. Yan, please pay for the tea you have drunk at Luxianglou these years at the counter." Ji Baiyu wrinkled his nose and replied disdainfully.

"Stingy!" Yan Shiyi turned around and said something, then went upstairs.

Ji Baiyu thought about it and felt something was wrong: He was so proud of the spring breeze after going out?There must be an affair.

Upstairs, Xie Ruitang and Tang Yu were playing chess. Xie Ruitang's white stones surrounded Tang Yu's black stones. Yan Shiyi picked up a black stone and placed it between the two white stones. It seemed that He threw himself into a trap, but actually he was on the same line with the besieged Heizi, and actually broke through the siege of Bai Zi!
Xie Ruitang smiled and said, "Are you in high spirits on happy occasions?"

"I think he met a peach blossom when he went out. Let's interrogate him carefully." Ji Baiyu went upstairs personally carrying a pot of this year's first spring white needles.

Doctor Tang unexpectedly stretched out his hand to grab Yan Shiyi's pulse, and said in a serious tone: "Yes, my heart is fast and my pulse is fast. This is the pulse sign of spring. Why don't you get it right?"

"You guys have really good noses. It's a pity that you don't want to be a spy. There really is a girl." Yan Shiyi said with a smile on his face: "This time I am going to Hunan, and Miss Dai Si from the Cao Gang is also on the boat. There are many Tiqi from the West Factory. , the inspection time was very tight, and we could hardly find an opportunity to make a move.

Later, we finally got into the kitchen and were about to give the medicine when a group of Ti rode by. Miss Dai Si suddenly realized what she was doing. She lifted up her skirt and raised her legs to stop them from using her beauty trap. We relied on her strength to stop them. It took three to five sentences to finally get the job done. "

Yan Shiyi took a sip of tea and continued: "I realized now that I really can't underestimate these women. In the front, there is Miss Cheng, who is good at medicine and is calm and calm when faced with difficulties. In the back, there is Miss Dai, who is witty and decisive. Oh, The girl’s courage and wisdom are sometimes even better than those of us men, I really admire them.”

"How about I ask Mr. Zhu to be a matchmaker?" Xie Ruitang asked with a smile.

Yan Shiyi rolled his eyes at him and said slowly: "In the future, don't you want me to replace Wang Man as the owner of the factory? When you become an eunuch, will you want me to remain a widow for the rest of your life?"

Wang Man's first eight adopted sons all became courtiers because they had to frequently walk around the palace. From Yan Jiu onwards, they only took care of external affairs. When ministers gathered, they occasionally served as guards together with the Jin Yiwei, so they were all still men. .If you are a factory owner, follow the emperor, and often go in and out of the inner palace, you must be a chamberlain.

Although Yan Shiyi was reluctant, he had long regarded this road as his destiny - a destiny he was willing to accept if he could help Xie Ruitang.Today, it was the first time that he said these unspeakable words.

Xie Ruitang laughed and said: "So this is what you care about and why you don't get married? You are my brother, just a Dongchang, and it is not enough to exchange for my brother's happiness. We can think of ways to choose Dongchang without you. Tangled, there are thousands of ways for you to help me. Wait until your sister-in-law passes the wedding, and let your sister-in-law handle it for you!"

Yan Shiyi waved his hands hurriedly and said anxiously: "No, no, it's just a talk. I like Wuzuo more. Even if I don't pick up Dongchang, I am still a simple person. I have nothing to worry about, sister-in-law."

Seeing the normally arrogant person looking so embarrassed, Tang Yu and the others burst into laughter.

But Zhao Xiaohou, who was thousands of miles away, couldn't laugh anymore.They faced off against the Japanese pirates several times without taking any advantage.One night, the Japanese pirates parked the big ship far away, quietly launched several small boats, and went ashore to rob a village. By the time Zhao Xiaohou got the news and arrived with his troops, they had already left in large numbers.

They don’t know until the person is gone.Shen Congxi suspected that someone had done it deliberately because they had received delayed information.What they didn't know was that the warlord reported the defeat again and also applied for [-] relief funds for the people.

Due to the failure to suppress the Japanese pirates, Zhao Xiaohouye and others had no choice but to plan to stay there for a long time and fight a protracted war with the Japanese pirates.This is the result Zhang Zhi wants.What's deplorable is that since we have to be stationed for a long time, there is a problem with food and salary.

"General, the food and grass we brought out are exhausted, but the follow-up food and grass did not arrive on schedule for some unknown reason." Li Bin reported: "The last general has rushed to urge the food, but I don't know if it will arrive within tomorrow."

"I thought the Japanese pirates were small in number and fighting a short battle, but I didn't expect the Japanese pirates to be cunning. So far, they haven't even had a direct battle, and they have wasted military rations in vain!" Zhang Zhi said sadly: "Vice General Li, starting from tomorrow, The rice rations of this governor have been halved to set an example for the soldiers."

Mr. Zhao Xiaohou felt like he had been given a slap in the face. If this slap could provide 1 people with military rations, Mr. Zhao would admit it. But after saying that, the issue of lack of food tomorrow has still not been solved!

In the inner tent, Shen Congxi said: "We can't wait. According to the military law of the Celestial Empire, we can go to the county government to borrow food for up to five days, and then return it to them when the military food arrives."

"Okay. You and Lieutenant General Li go together. No matter how much it is, borrow some to support one!" The young Marquis originally hated the duplicitous county magistrate Lin Youlu, but now he has to do this while waiting for the rice to be cooked.

Li Bin and Shen Congxi received their tokens and went to the county government office.When they arrived at the county government office, the magistrate's family was having lunch in the inner hall. After receiving the notice, Lin Youlu hurriedly walked out of the inner hall without even having time to wipe his mouth.

When he heard Lieutenant General Li explain his purpose, his face darkened, and he collapsed: "Vice General Li, it's not that I don't want to help you. After all, we are a poor county that has been robbed by Japanese pirates all the year round. We really don't have any extra rice to lend you." Ah. If there were enough rice and food, we wouldn’t ask the Guangdong and Fujian governments for relief every month!”

Vice General Li said with a smile: "It only takes a day or two. When the military rations arrive, we can pay them back immediately."

The county magistrate copied his hands and said: "There is no extra grain in our granary. If you really want it, you have to write a notice immediately and inform the people to come to the county government to hand over the grain. If the people have any complaints, you have to bear it yourself." with"

Lieutenant General Li had no choice but to cup his hands, turned around and left.After leaving the county government office and seeing Shen Congxi, Li Bin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "There is no way, the county government has no surplus food."

Shen Congxi gave him a wink, and Li Bin understood immediately, and the two of them climbed over the wall and entered the county government office.There is a wall next to the warehouse in the backyard. Shen Congxi doesn't know how to climb the wall.Once on the roof, he lifted up a tile and asked Li Bin to look down. A whole warehouse full of bulging rice bags came into view.

The old boy lied to me!Li Bin was so angry that he wanted to go down and smash the county government office.

Shen Congxi said confidently: "Wait a minute, I will go in with you to argue with them."
