The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms Chapter 57

Xun Zhen asked the people in Jing Lao, "What's wrong?"

"what?"

"You should be happy to have won the reward, but I think you are a little absent-minded?"

The few people in the respectful elders looked at me and I looked at you, and seemed a little surprised by Xun Zhen's observation. After hesitating for a while, one of them said, "Of course I'm happy to get the reward, the villains are just for..."

"why?"

"Worry about what's going on here."

"What's the matter?"

"The villain's lizhong is ready to establish mulberry and Miaoyin, gather the strength of the whole li, follow the example of Andingli, and plant mulberry trees inside and outside."

"I heard your li chief, li elders, and the original teacher talk about this. What's wrong? But there is a problem?"

"According to the rules of the original teacher, the amount of money each household contributes will determine the future ownership of mulberry and seedlings. Among the villains, most of the households are very poor. Although they have exhausted everything, the money they have collected is not enough. Buy a hundred seedlings."

"Oh?"

"According to this calculation, those who pay more can be divided into three or five mulberry plants, and those who pay less can be divided into less than one, which is really not enough to be distributed. - The poor family, who pays less money, can't be divided into one, so they are sad. "

Xun Zhen nodded clearly: "..., so you are worried about this."

As early as in the former Han Dynasty, the annual income of planting 1,000 mu of mulberry and hemp could reach 200,000 yuan. Although it has not doubled now, it has already exceeded this figure. A mulberry tree is about "worth ten pieces of silk", that is, a grown mulberry tree is worth about 2,000. Although the mulberry saplings will be cheaper, it is still an unacceptably high price for most households in Jinglao.

Xun Zhen pondered for a moment, then said, "You said that the money you have gathered together is only enough to buy a hundred mulberry seedlings?"

"Yes."

"How many households are there that can't be divided into one plant?"

"This..." The person who spoke hadn't paid attention to it. After calculating with the people in the books next to him for a while, he estimated a rough figure and replied, "Twenty households."

"How much is the total money from these twenty households?"

The speaker didn't even know it, and after whispering with the people in the book for a long time, he said uncertainly: "There may be five or six thousand dollars."

15,000 to 6,000 yuan is enough to buy a dozen mulberry seedlings at most, in other words, it is still about half of the difference.

Xun Zhen said in his heart, "If the money is short, I can make it up for them. Now it's more than ten thousand dollars short..." In addition to the five thousand money lent to Cheng Yan earlier, at most three or four thousand money can be taken out. You can't take out all of your family's savings to help the elderly. It's not that he regrets the money, but he takes the money all at once, what will he do in the future? He is interested in handing over heroes and based on the local area, there is always a time to use money.

He looked at the people in the old-fashioned room, and then he thought again: "After I came to the pavilion, whether it was treating Mother Xu kindly or making friends with Jiang Qin people, most of my effort was spent on the Qing Xia generation, right? Ordinary li residents don't have much investment. To be more specific, this is an opportunity.... Moreover, this honorable li is different from other li, and most of the residents in the li are Taiping Taoist believers. If you can take this opportunity to be kind Waiting for him may be beneficial in the future. Although there is not much spare money in the family, there are still hundreds of acres of land. When the money is needed in the future, the land is sold. Anyway, the world is about to be in chaos, and there is no way to keep the land in your hands. Useful.... I still persuaded Gao Su to be 'shi righteous', and in exchange for myself, why did I forget to take this 'shi kindness'?"

Thinking of this, he laughed dumbly, made a decision immediately, and said with a smile: "'A penny can beat a hero'. I saw you moving around and going forward bravely when you were on the court. You are a good man. Worried about money? Let me make up for the inadequacies."

The man in Jinglao couldn't believe his ears, thinking he heard it wrong: "What? Make it up for the villain?"

"Not only does it make up for you. . . . how many of you? Is it not enough for one mulberry seedling?"

Two of the other people in the elders nodded their heads.

"I'll make it up for you too! ... and other residents among you. I'll make up for those who don't have enough mulberry seedlings. How much is the total difference, you can calculate the number,..." He instructed Chen Bao, "Go and fetch the five thousand money first."

Chen Bao had already developed a "good" habit of doing whatever Xun Zhen told him to do.

The surrounding residents were attracted by their words, and they were all surprised when they learned that Xun Zhen was going to pay for the mulberry seedlings for the households in Jinglaoli. Growing up, I have heard of "good officials", but I have never heard of such "good officials"! Not taking bribes is a rare "blue sky", and this new pavilion chief is willing to pay out of his own pocket to give money to the households under his control? Whispering, frequently watching Xun Zhen.

As if nothing had happened, Xun Zhen only smiled and talked with the few people in Jinglaoli, and the topics were nothing more than mulberry seedlings, the harvest in the lizhong, and so on. The few people in Jinglao couldn't believe Xun Zhen's words. During the conversation, their thoughts were different. The answers were often irrelevant, and Xun Zhen didn't mind.

When Chen Bao brought the money and Xun Zhen handed it over, those people were still in a dream and couldn't believe it.

The first person to speak was terrified.

Xun Zhen said: "Strictly speaking, the five thousand money is not mine, but it is the money that Ah Yan owes Xiangting Gao Su. Gao Suyin remembered the feelings of the village, burned the bond, and returned the money to Ah Yan. Yan. Therefore, Ayan is willing to be like Gao Su, and use the money in the village. I will take the lead for him, and use it in your respect for the elderly! If there is not enough left, after you calculate the amount, I will pay it out!"

Xun Zhen said that the five thousand money belonged to Cheng Yan, but the people in the village knew that he actually lent it to Cheng Yan, that is to say, the money belonged to him.

Jiang Qin was next to him, listening to him talk about Gao Su first and then Cheng Yan, he thought to himself: "Xunjun can be said to be 'goodness is called a person, and a bad person is called yourself'! ... Cheng Yan will not talk about it for the time being, just talk about that. Gao Su, after hearing about this, he will definitely be very happy, and he will definitely treat Xun Jun with all his heart." Xun Zhen's move was both "benevolent" and "benevolent". , added together, the benefits are even greater.

The few people in Jinglaoli couldn't refuse, so they had to accept it, looked at each other, knelt on the ground, held up Qian Gao, kowtowed and said, "My parents are the ones who gave birth to me, and Xunjun is the one who raised me!" The people of Li also fell to the ground one after another, and chanted in unison.

For a time, everyone on the training ground bowed down, and only Xunzhen stood with Jiang Qin and Chen Bao. After feeling the awe of the people in the village, Xun Zhen soon felt the feeling of being loved again. With a smile on his face, he looked around.

Chen Bao stood by his side, peeping at his expression, and said to himself, "I asked Xun Jun about his ambitions earlier, and he said that the county officials were not what he wanted. Looking at his behavior now, it is not "the county officials are not what he wanted", but the county officials The officials can't tolerate him at all!" He was even more curious about why Xun Zhen came to be the pavilion chief, but he resisted asking.

With the reminder given to himself before, Xun Zhen firmly kept in mind the purpose of becoming the pavilion chief. He admitted that this feeling was very enjoyable, but he remained sober, humbly invited the people to get up, and said with a smile: "It's almost the rest, and I'm ready to start the next Cuju!"

Jiang Qin's guess was right at all, Xun Zhen's act of "being good is called a person" was spread by the people present, and it was spread to Xiangting in the afternoon the next day. After Gao Su heard about it, he was very happy and kept asking the guests who reported the news: "What do the villagers say about me?"

The guests joked about it and exaggeratedly said: "Shaojun's kindness spread all over the village, and the villagers all said: Even the Xun family in Gaoyang praised the young master! They are proud of being in the same hometown as the young master."

When Xun Zhen came to look for him, Gao Su did not take the Xun family in Gaoyang seriously, but after listening to the guest's words, he danced with joy and said, "The Xun family praised me too! The Xun family praised me too! I'm gone!" Thinking that the Xun clan in Gaoyang is well-known all over the world, a party member among party members, and a clear stream in a clear stream, even scholars and scholars would be very excited because of their praise, not to mention Gao Su? It is one thing for him to ignore Xun Shi, but it is another to get Xun Shi's praise.

Gao Su was restless, rubbed his hands together, and said with a smile: "The five thousand money is Cheng Yan's debt, and since I refuse to collect it, I can't count it out. Xun Jun treats me with kindness, and I can't sit back and take a false name. "

"How do you say this, Young Master?"

"I'm going to pay for it!"

"How much?"

"Five thousand,..., no, ten thousand!"

Gao Su did what he said. He lifted up his robe and went out. When he got to the door, he didn't have time to put on his shoes, so he just dragged and trotted, and went to the warehouse in a hurry, ordering his attendants to take 10,000 yuan. 10,000 is a lot of money, a bag full of money.

He looked up and down for a while, but he felt that he was not imposing, as if he was not worthy of his "benevolence, kindness and righteousness", which was "spread all over the country". ..., no, two dollars!"

A pound of gold cake is worth 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. When he was happy before, he took the initiative to donate 10,000 yuan; now he feels unimpressive again, and 10,000 yuan has become 30,000 or 40,000 yuan. The guests under his family know his temper~www.mtlnovel.com~ No one wants to touch his bad head when he is happy, and they do not persuade him, just flatter him with a smile.

In the evening of that day, two golden cakes were delivered to Fanyang Pavilion.

Xun Zhen never expected that Gao Su would send money. Although he did not expect it, he did not refuse, and said to the guests of the Gao family who brought the money: "It is a blessing for the villagers to do such a good deed. Xun Zhen is here to thank your lord on behalf of the residents in Benting! "Although I haven't had much contact with Gao Su, he has gradually come to understand this person's character. To put it mildly, he is a person who "values ​​fame", and to put it badly, he is a "fishing for fame". Rather than reject it, simply accept it. In this way, Gao Su will be even happier.

After the person who sent the money left, the people in Tingshe gathered around Xun Zhen, and Du Mai gasped in amazement: "I didn't expect that Gao Su could actually do such a thing?"

Fan Tan and Fan Shang's eyes lit up, and said, "Two gold biscuits, 30,000 to 40,000 yuan! There is still a shortage of 10,000 yuan at the most in Jinglao. Let's divide the rest!"

Cheng Yan looked down on the two brothers and said, "Gao Su's money is for Xun-Jun, not for you!" Chen Bao asked, "Xun-Jun, how are you going to use this money?"

"Da Fan and Xiao Fan are right, you can get 20,000 to 30,000 yuan left after removing the money for the elderly. ... This money was sent by Gao Jun, of course we can't divide it, but we should use it out to give to Gao Jun. You are famous."

"How to use it to make him famous?"

"I was thinking, if I only take care of the elderly, will it cause dissatisfaction among the residents of the other li? Now that Gao Jun has sent the money, I can ask the other li for their needs. ."

The so-called "borrowing flowers to offer Buddha". Using this money on Zhu Li's body not only made Gao Su famous, but also gained popularity for his own family. It can be expected that when the money is used up, Xun Zhen's reputation in Benting and even in the local area will reach a new level.
