The Golden County Magistrate

Zheng Yan covered her forehead and opened her eyes wide. After listening to his words, the questions that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time surged up again.

Since she came here, she has witnessed how Chen Yan made Qingshan County prosperous step by step.

But she has also seen countless times that Chen Yan tried his best to prevent the changes in Qingshan County from being spread to the court.

She has never figured out why this is.

"Sir, is it not good to get promoted and make money?" Zheng Yan had been holding back this question for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking it.

"Of course it's good to get rich, but let's forget about getting promoted." Chen Yan said without thinking.

"Why?" Zheng Yan was puzzled.

"No matter how big the official is, it's not bigger than the current emperor, isn't that right?" Chen Yan thought about it and asked.

"That's for sure." Zheng Yan thought to herself, you are talking nonsense. Which official is not appointed by the emperor? Can an official be bigger than the emperor?

"Then who sleeps better, the emperor or me?" Chen Yan asked again.

"Who can compare to you? You sleep like a dead pig every day, and you can't be woken up even if you call you." Zheng Yan curled her lips, "Your Majesty is busy with all kinds of affairs, worrying about the country and the people. Now there are disasters and civil unrest one after another. I'm afraid it's hard for him to sleep."

"That's right. The more power you have, the more uncomfortable you will be. Then why should I get promoted?"

"I'm already exhausted like a dog managing Qingshan County, and I have to be a big official to worry about the world's affairs. Isn't this self-torture?"

"Isn't it a hundred times and a thousand times more comfortable to be a local emperor here than to get promoted?"

Chen Yan said convincingly.

Zheng Yan was speechless.

Isn't it just that you don't have ambition? Why are you talking so much!

But to be honest, if Chen Yan really left, and someone else came here to be the county magistrate, Zheng Yan would not be happy.

Although she always contradicted him, she was actually very grateful to him.

In the Zhou Dynasty, men were superior to women, and it had never been heard that a woman could be a head constable.

But Chen Yan promoted her regardless of what others said.

"Okay, get to work!" Chen Yan urged, "That guy may have left the city, and you can't let go of the nearby villages and towns!"

"I know, you talk too much nonsense!" Zheng Yan muttered and turned away.

Chen Yan watched her go away and sighed.

He trusted Zheng Yan's ability, otherwise he would not have promoted her in the first place.

Especially when it comes to finding people, no one she targeted can escape.

...

The matter of Yao Chi Xian Niang soon became a hot topic in the capital.

Only the rich can afford the sky-high price goods, and they can only be booked by appointment, and they may not be able to make an appointment. This routine has only been used by Tian's Beauty before.

But because the customer base of Tian's Beauty is basically the family members of each household, the storm it caused was not big.

But Yaochi Xianjiu is different. This time, the customer group is the dignitaries and nobles in the capital!

This made the news spread like wildfire at an explosive speed. In less than two days, it was known to everyone, and it was no longer just a few people who knew about it.

When those wealthy merchants without official titles heard that even His Royal Highness Prince Ning personally came to buy it, and almost all the senior officials in the court were crazy about this Yaochi Xianjiu, how could they hold back? They also swarmed to try it.

However, only 30 reservations were released each time.

Moreover, the reservation was implemented under the real-name system, and the purchase amount per person was limited, which restricted the operation of scalpers.

Even strict identity checks were implemented. Once scalpers were found, they would be cracked down immediately and never tolerated.

Customers who bought from scalpers were also blacklisted together with the scalpers who were found, and they would no longer sell.

All these measures made the news wave roll up one after another. For the first time since Tang Yun ascended the throne, the Great Zhou had a monopoly on hot searches.

Not only were people in the capital discussing this matter crazily, but the news spread to other places, and soon the entire Sili region was spread.

Now the number of people who came to make an appointment increased exponentially. From morning to night, there were people queuing in front of the Yao Chi Xian Niang shop for twelve hours.

From one end of the Imperial City Street to the other, the long queue of hundreds of feet was extremely spectacular!

On the day when the second batch of Yao Chi Xian Niang was delivered, the shop owner Zhou Yang stood on the second-floor window sill, looking at the long queue below, with cold sweat on his forehead.

Zhou Yang was a confidant promoted by He Jinyao and one of the core backbones of the Zhou Chamber of Commerce. He had been in business for nearly 30 years and was considered an old hand in the business circle. He had seen all kinds of scenes.

But this scene was really unprecedented!

Everyone in the back knew that it might take many days before they could make a successful appointment.

But they still lined up!

Yao Chi Xian Niang was only sold once, but the brand was already so strong!

Zhou Yang didn't know about Chen Yan's existence, and all related matters were handled by He Jinyao himself.

Therefore, he thought that this matter was He Jinyao's idea and credit.

I never thought that Mr. He could think ofSuch a miraculous method is even ten times or even a hundred times greater than the sensation caused by Tian's Cosmetics!

"Boss, the goods have arrived!"

A clerk ran up and said breathlessly.

Zhou Yang was refreshed: "Get ready to open the shop immediately!"

After the shop door was opened, the long queue did not change.

They were waiting in line for an appointment and were not qualified to enter the shop to buy directly.

They had to watch another shorter queue next to them and file in.

This row was for those who had made an appointment three days ago and came to pick up the goods today.

At this time, they looked at those who were still waiting for an appointment, and they all felt superior and walked into the shop with their heads held high.

Only those who were waiting in line for an appointment were left, casting envious and jealous eyes.

Zhou Yang knew that the people who came were either dignitaries or people sent by dignitaries. He did not dare to neglect them and received them with all his strength, respectfully delivering bottles of Yao Chi that had been packaged to everyone.

Eighty bottles of Yao Chi Xian Wine were sold out in a blink of an eye.

In the back hall, He Jinyao looked at the account book and smiled so hard that his mouth couldn't close.

Twenty-four thousand taels of silver!

Including the first batch, the total profit was more than fifteen thousand taels!

And more importantly, the delivery person brought Chen Yan's words.

"Starting from the third batch, each batch will deliver at least ten barrels."

"And the delivery date will be one day in advance, and the goods will be delivered every two days."

"The limit on the number of people for a single reservation will be expanded to fifty people each time."

At this rate, the goal of two hundred thousand taels of silver can be earned in at most twenty days!

"It's saved, Jizhou is saved!" He Jinyao stroked the account book, and a little tear oozed from the corner of his eyes.

In the palace, Tang Yun was furious.

"Say it again!"
