Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

The neighbor, full of thoughts, grabbed the longan and walked towards her home. When she went out, she happened to meet someone coming here.

"Hey, why did you go out? What happened to his family?"

The neighbor said: "It's a strange thing. The county master comes to deliver gifts. Have you seen it in all these years?"

"It turns out it's a gift. I said the Yamen arrest people and they don't make big or small packages."

The neighbor asked strangely: "Your home is so far away, how did you see it?"

"The county master went to Ergou's house, but I didn't see him in the row where I live." The man said, "I wanted to follow him in to listen, but I didn't squeeze through others. I also heard that the county master came from Hongzhu's house. If you’ve been there, just come over here and ask.”

"Ergou's family!" Luo Hongzhu's neighbor's eyes widened, "I'm really sure about the Hongzhu family. It seems that the important person, the county master, is behind."

The man who had just arrived was confused, "What are you talking about?"

"Has Ergou's family collected your sweet potato noodles?" the neighbor asked while stuffing the longan into his arms.

The man opposite looked at her actions, swallowed his saliva and replied, "Collect it, he has collected it from several stores nearby."

"You don't know that Ergou's family has made a lot of money selling sweet potato flour, even more than Hongzhu's family. If he sells sweet potato flour in the future, you have to ask him to give you a good price!"

"Sister-in-law Blackfoot, where did you know that?"

"What Hongzhu said is that they are all doing business near the wall and know more than us! We still have to believe what he says."

"Oops! It's too late to know now. He has almost finished all my sweet potato flour, and the remaining bits are only enough for my own consumption." The man said regretfully: "You should have told me earlier!"

"I didn't know before." The black-footed sister-in-law seemed to have thought of something. She rolled her eyes and said, "You said who doesn't know how to make these sweet potato vermicelli? Their family is so diligent that they take it to the wall to make money. Big money, this money can’t be earned by his family, don’t you think so?”

"That's the truth!" This person thought this was very pleasant. "But the county government has regulations. If they sell sweet potato flour, we can't sell it."

"The county government has its own regulations, but Luojia Village has its own regulations." Heijiao said enigmatically.

"Sister-in-law, what do you think we should do about this matter? It's not a good feeling to just watch other people make money and we can't make any money." "I tell you, when the county master leaves, we will sit at his house and invite the village elders to make a decision."

"Yes! That's what we should do!" The man glanced at Luo Hongzhu's house, "Sister-in-law, doesn't the Hongzhu family make money?"

"How can we not make money? I know they are not telling the truth. A few dozen copper coins a day is much better than us just sitting around and doing nothing." Heijiao said, "We always do everything together in our village. Even if we move here, we should still do it." so."

"Yes! You are right!" The man turned around and prepared to go back, "I will go back and see if the county master has left. Sister-in-law, go and call the clan elder. When the county master leaves, we will go to Ergou's house!"

Seizing the opportunity, after the county government officials left, many people surrounded the elders and walked into Ergou's house.

Meng Changqing was happy when Ergou saw him off, so he locked the door and was about to say a few words to his wife, but the courtyard door rang again.

"Go and see if the county master has left something at our house."

"Hey!" Ergou opened the door and saw several layers of people outside, not only those who had just crowded outside to watch the fun, but also several clan elders standing at the front.

"what happened?"

The clan elder said, "I'll come to your house to talk."

Ergou felt baffled, but he had to listen to what the clan elder had to say.

Invite people in. Before Meng Changqing leaves Luojia Village, the trial meeting here has begun.

"The Blackfoot family has a saying that is right. Our ancestors in Luojia Village do everything together. This is the reason why we can survive next to the red sand dead land. Now that we have moved to another place, we have more food at home. If we hide something from each other, are our Luojia Village going to break up?"

"Uncle, I don't know who you listened to. You brought these people to teach me." Ergou rubbed his hands on his clothes, "I do business by the wall. I crossed Ming Road in the government office and pushed the cart every day. I am fair and aboveboard when I go out, and I never want to hide anything from anyone.

Besides, I wasn’t the one who started the business at the wall, and my family is not the only one doing business now. Why are you all here at my house?

I have no father or mother, am I easy to bully? "(End of chapter)
