Chapter 835, Talking

"Governor Wu has a heart, but the official has just arrived, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Wei Xiaobao refused politely again, Wu Zhirong was like a mirror in his heart, knowing that Wei Xiaobao was happy in his heart, and he couldn't get over his face, so he had to say another high-sounding excuse, Wei Xiaobao pretended to be helpless, and accepted the envelope very embarrassed.

Wei Xiaobao is a man with clear grievances and grievances, and there is a revenge that will be avenged, but well, where is the reason to push out the silver given by others for nothing, not to mention Wu Zhirong's silver, since he has given so much, Wei Xiaobao has a total in his heart, this kid's family must be worth taking advantage of others, and the small treasury and private money must be piled up, so it is better to take someone to his house another day to raid the house and end his kennel.

Wei Xiaobao accepted the silver, and his attitude was a little polite, "Governor Wu, please take a seat." Wei Xiaobao waved his hand and motioned for Wu Zhirong to sit down.

"Humble and afraid, where is there a lowly seat in front of the lord."

Wu Zhirong's face was full of flattery, and he refused again, Wei Xiaobao nodded and hummed, "There is a seat, there is a seat, Governor Wu, no matter how polite you are, you will see outside, this official still has an important matter to discuss with you." ”

Wu Zhirong's heart was full of joy when he heard this, and he didn't expect that just after sending the silver, Lord Wei would treat him as an outsider, and he would discuss important matters together, specifying that he would give him a peach, and Lord Wei would repay him.

Wu Zhirong, with a shy belly, sat down next to Wei Xiaobao with trembling, in fact, that is, his butt was next to the edge of the chair, as if he was sitting but not sitting, in front of Wei Xiaobao, where did he dare to be so casual and presumptuous?

"Governor Wu, this official came to Yangzhou this time, do you know what it is?" Wei Xiaobao pondered for a while and said coldly.

"Ahh Lord Wei's home in Yangzhou, this time he returned to his hometown, returned to his hometown, and came to the province. Wu Zhirong said with a smile.

Wei Xiaobao shook his head, "As a minister, since he should be loyal to the monarch and serve the country, and share worries for the emperor, where can he dare to have the slightest selfishness, saying that he is going home to save his relatives, but it is just a reason, in fact..."

"Lord Wei, could it be that the emperor has sent Lord Wei to have confidential matters to do at this time?" Wu Zhirong asked cautiously.

Wei Xiaobao shook his head, "Wu Zhirong, that's not the case, Wu Zhifu, you have also been an official for many years, so you naturally know this is the way to be an official, otherwise, you will not be promoted to Yangzhou Governor, what do you say... For officials, it is natural to share the worries of the master, first worry about the master's worries, and then share the worries when the master opens his mouth, but he will fall behind, this point, Wu Zhifu will not understand. Wei Xiaobao said with a smile.

Wu Zhirong nodded again and again, "Please also ask Lord Wei to mention more, what does Lord Wei command, although he is blunt, he will go to the soup and die in the soup." Wu Zhirong stood up and showed his determination, Wei Xiaobao smiled slightly, and said in his heart, just your fat body, you still want to go to the soup and fire, and you will not give up, bullshit.

Wei Xiaobao nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand and pressed Wu Zhirong to his seat, "Come here, this matter is confidential, and it can't be leaked at all." While speaking, Wei Xiaobao glanced around, pretending to be very vigilant and cautious, Wu Zhirong believed it and quickly lowered his head and leaned his ears over.

"Huh?" When he got closer, when he smelled his nose, Wei Xiaobao almost didn't vomit, this Wu Zhirong had a fat head and big ears, and he smelled bad, and he was uncomfortable.

There was no way, Wei Xiaobao had to hold his nose with his hand and said in a low voice, "I, Wei Xiaobao, was born in Yangzhou, so naturally I want to make a fortune for our officials in Yangzhou, what do you say, Governor Wu?" ”

Wu Zhirong nodded again and again, "That's, that's, I understand the hard work of the lord." ”

Wei Xiaobao said again, "The imperial court has been fighting for many years, the expenditure is huge, and the treasury has been...", Wei Xiaobao made an O-shaped gesture at Wu Zhirong.

"Ahh What does Lord Wei mean? Wu Zhirong asked.

Wei Xiaobao said, "The treasury is empty, the three feudatories have not been able to settle down, this account naturally still has to be beaten, without the silver, the emperor will be worried, and when the time comes, he will definitely issue a decree to ask for it, at that time, more or less, we have no credit at all, at most it can be regarded as completing the work, if it is... Let's send charcoal in the snow, what do you think the emperor will think? ”

"It's... What Lord Wei said is that it is better to send charcoal in the snow than icing on the cake, the master is in difficulty, and it is our duty for the slave to share the worries, but where to borrow so much for this silver? Putting up notices and collecting them from the people is not possible overnight? Wu Zhirong sighed.

"Governor Wu, you are stupid." As he spoke, Wei Xiaobao tapped Wu Zhirong's head.

"Can you talk nonsense about this? Let other states and counties know, when the time comes, you will take the lead and grab the first credit, you and I are just thankless. Besides, if there is no evidence, how can you ask the people for it? Don't be bitten back by others at that time, and sue you for the crime of looting people's fat and collecting money indiscriminately. ”

"This? In the opinion of Lord Wei, what should be done in this matter? Wu Zhirong asked.

Wei Xiaobao reminded, "We can put it on first, let the hundred officials make up some of it, the amount of silver needed by the imperial court is huge, and sooner or later it will be levied, and at that time, can you still pay for nothing?" Let's take the lead, the emperor is happy, and the official is added to the knighthood, and when the time comes, your Wu Governor's Mansion will soar, do you still care about counting the silver? How much is it not a matter of searching for things and taking things at ease? ”

Wu Zhirong was very moved when he heard it, but this amount, he also knew that if there was less out, it would be a drop in the bucket at all, and the emperor would not look at it, when Wu Zhirong bowed his head and pondered, and he couldn't pay attention to it, Wei Xiaobao said again, "This matter, if the Governor of Wu thinks it is inappropriate, I will not force it, just when I didn't say it, in a few days, I will discuss it with the Governor of Malerji, and afterwards, the Governor of Wu will not regret it." Well, it's not too early afterwards, and the official is a little tired. Saying that, he was about to send off the guest, and Governor Wu hurriedly said, "The lord is kind, and the humble post understands, and I ask the lord to consider this matter for a few days, and after three days, the humble post will definitely give Lord Wei a satisfactory answer." ”

Wei Xiaobao said again, "It's okay, but Governor Wu, as the old saying goes, you can't miss the opportunity, you don't have to think clearly, don't say that the official doesn't take care of his hometown colleagues, and he didn't show you the way, okay, you go back and think about it carefully." The official has to stay in Yangzhou for a few days, and he is not in a hurry. ”

Wu Zhirong got up and retreated, looking at Wu Zhirong's distant back, Wei Xiaobao smiled and sneered, "I don't believe that you don't take the bait, Lao Tzu came to Yangzhou for you, if I don't get tired of playing with you, how can I Wei Xiaobao stop." ”

If the big one He Yuan, just Wei Xiaobao and a few people live, it really felt empty, Wei Xiaobao asked Chu Fei to transfer some soldiers from Hongxing to act as He Yuan's guards, maids or something, and also picked dozens of them in order to take care of the daily life of a few people.
