Twenty-five, a garden offered

Ma Song was not angry, he just smiled and looked at everyone with disdain, he took the lead, that is, he took one more step than others, the so-called meeting three points of love, he and Xue Pan had such a friendship of talking and eating all night, others are not comparable, the sarcasm of the loser, why should you take it to heart?

Everyone just said that, and then surrounded Xue Pan, handed Xue Pan the name of the thorn one by one, and introduced himself in a gossipy manner, and said that this night is really good, you can go to the left side of the tasteless pavilion to eat flower wine, there are a few girls who have not gone out yet, and they are the most suitable to serve Lord Xue.

When he was in Jinling, as long as those children invited them to eat and watch the play, they never came, but this time they really didn't dare to go out to deal with these banquets with ulterior motives, and it seemed that they were going to eat themselves, so they fled in the wilderness, took the worship post, hid in the gate of the garden and closed it, and never dared to come out again.

Li Rubang and Qi Dazhuang were already waiting at the gatehouse, Xue Pan was shocked, and said to the two people: "Have you heard about the things outside?" But really? ”

The two of them looked at each other, Qi Dazhuang was very happy, and his face was flushed with red light, "Congratulations to the uncle, I actually got this errand to assist in organizing the salt introduction and reform faction in Lord Lin's place, if you talk about it, when the old lady was in charge of the two Huai patrol salt imperial history, he didn't have such great authority, and the small one heard about it, and the people outside said so, it can't be wrong, this time, let's do the salt errand, but it's simple!" ”

"Simple?" Xue Pan touched the beads of sweat on his face, "Is this a simple matter?" Today, Ma Song invited me to visit Slender West Lake at night, just knowing that I was going to do this errand, so I came to deal with it first, this Ma family, behind him is Hu Zhongtang, a big figure like him, "Even if Hu Zhongtang loses power, "it is definitely something that my small body can stop!" ”

"I'm here in Yangzhou," Xue Pan looked at the steady stream of worship posts sent in a little sluggishly, the worship posts were stacked more than half a person high, and placed on the bookcase, Xue Pan sat on the chair in a daze, "It's nothing more than a little bit, really," Xue Pan looked at Li Rubang and Qi Dazhuang, "Just do a little bit of salt, help Jinling Mansion make up for the shortfall, and earn a little pocket money for yourself, this is enough." But now it's good, the gold and silver mountains have come up together, and I don't want to make so much silver with a small body like me! What I need is a little rich! Don't want to make a lot of money! ”

Xue Pan wailed for a while, slumped on the chair, I really don't know why Lin Ruhai wanted to do this, this is not to help himself, this is clearly to frame himself, this kind of thing will never be satisfactory to everyone, killing parents, cutting off people's financial routes, these are the two most hated things, whose financial routes are cut off, these are not negotiable things!

Li Rubang has been in Yangzhou for a long time and knows the seriousness of the problem here, "Uncle, I think that you should hurry over to the house to meet Master Lin and ask what is going on, otherwise it is always inappropriate to put the uncle on the fire like this." ”

"Naturally," Xue Pan nodded, "I don't know what is going on here, I'll let Mr. Yucun come tomorrow!" He instructed Li Rubang, "I still have one idea here, the water in Yangzhou is very deep, and a Ma family has Hu Zhongtang behind him, what about the rest?" Could the rest be vegetarians? Speaking of which, all of us in Jinling are all in the same spirit, and the rest of the people are behind some gods and ghosts to take care of them, if I am careless, I accidentally offend someone who should not be offended, I am afraid that I don't know how to die in the future. ”

The current state of the Xue family, Xue Pan, for the bigwigs in Beijing, is just a rich man in the countryside, not a big man, even if he has won the emperor's heavenly praise, but all year round, how many people the emperor wants to reward, I am afraid that the emperor himself can't remember clearly, the emperor has a lot of opportunities, it won't take long to forget Xue Pan, and everyone naturally can't remember this person.

But if Xue Pan makes trouble again, and it is such a big thing as the salt administration, it will be the cheese of the nobles. Secretly unhappy and angry, this is not something that Xue Pan, who is rampant in Jinling, can bear.

Xue Pan made up his mind, "I'll go to the Imperial History Mansion tomorrow, ask this matter clearly, and quit quickly," Xue Pan couldn't help but wail again, "I don't want to mix the matter here, how big a belly, how much food I eat, this big mouth is stuffed in, I'm full, but I'm also dying!" ”

I was worried all night, and I didn't sleep very well, and I finally fell asleep in the early morning of the next day, but I was woken up by Mama Wang at dawn, "Uncle has a lot of guests outside, ready to see Uncle," she took a stack of famous thorns in her hand, "Uncle hurry up." ”

"No, no, no," Xue Pan turned over anxiously, and the person closed his eyes inside, "Accept all the prayers, you can't accept any gifts, the people who come to meet you are called to entertain people, speak nicely, hurry up and drive them away!" ”

After a while, Mama Wang came to invite again, saying that Li Rubang had something important to report, Xue Pan had no choice but to get up, and after grooming and seeing Li Rubang, Li Rubang presented a title deed covered with a bright red seal to Xue Pan, and said with a wry smile, "Uncle, this is a big matter, the steward of the Tang family sent the title deed of the garden over." ”

"Oh, you did it quickly," Xue Pan said approvingly, "bought a garden?" How much silver was spent? ”

Li Rubang shook his head, "The little one hasn't talked to the Tang family about buying a garden yet, it's the Tang family's steward who came into the garden this morning to find the little one and threw the title deed to us, saying that this garden is filial piety to the uncle." ”

"Tang family ......," Xue Panqi said, "Could it be that he is also a salt merchant?" ”

"Yes, one of the Eight Heavenly Kings of the Salt Merchant."

"Okay," Xue Pan touched his nose and said depressedly, if this garden is taken out and sold, it will not be able to buy it for thousands of taels of silver, but this Tang family actually sent the title deed over at once, this big gift, if you accept it, it will be difficult to deal with in the future, Xue Pan is not ready to be an iron-faced and selfless Qing official, and even said that he doesn't want to do anything about the salt introduction and reform, these generous gifts are not generous gifts, but poison, and eating them will kill people.

Li Rubang waited for Xue Pan to give an order, how to do this land deed, "Since you brought it in, you will take it first, we are renting their garden, it's not good to offend too much," Xue Pan instructed, "But other people's can't accept gifts, and I will return this land deed in the future." ”
