Chapter 300: See Du Jingjing Again (Three Watches Ask for a Monthly Pass)
The day after the two tax officials went to our restaurant, they asked someone to go to the tax office to pay the false slip. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
One of them said that his father was seriously ill and that he was going back to serve him, and the other was even more simply - his leg was broken, and he was on sick leave!
As soon as the tax collector heard this, he knew that there was something wrong, and immediately asked someone to find out the situation: was the leg broken, or was it discounted?
If someone really maliciously retaliates against the tax difference, the tax office must not ignore it.
In fact, for the Suzaku Mansion Tax Office, if they make a big deal about it, they will achieve their goal, they only need to report the situation, and the rest of the things will not be their concern.
The one who broke his leg was the tall tax difference, and in the face of the colleague who came to visit the injury, he made it very clear, "I accidentally fell and injured myself, really." ”
There was also a deputy tax envoy who came to visit him, and he was unhappy, "It's not interesting for you to say that, what grievances have you suffered, you can say that of course the room has to be the master for you, if you hide it for others, you have to consider the consequences!"
"I injured myself, this is all right?" Gao Gao was almost gone, and he shouted loudly, "You bosses will only instigate us poor people, and the Xuannu Palace will not go to you!"
The deputy tax envoy was shocked when he heard this, "The Xuannu Palace actually found you, and they dare to meddle in secular affairs?"
"I don't know if it's the Xuannu Palace, anyway, I can't afford to mess with it," Gao Ge sneered, "Now that my leg is broken, this kind of, whoever wants to do it." ”
"You should report this matter to the room," the deputy tax envoy felt that this was not an unsolvable situation, "and we will go to negotiate with the Xuannu Palace when the time comes." ”
"Nothing, I broke my leg by myself," Gao Yiqi said very simply, "Don't be embarrassed for me, if you really want to be difficult for me, I won't be fine, but do you think that the Xuannu Palace will let go of stirring up trouble?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone lost their temper, it is indeed such a truth, the Xuannu Palace does not interfere in mundane affairs, but quietly plotting against someone, how big is it?
To put it bluntly, everyone thought about things simply, and when they were looking for Zhao Xinxin, they just thought that they could make something happen in the government system, but they didn't take into account that the Xuannu Palace would secretly insert a lever.
Past facts have proved that although the Dao Palace gang claims to be trustworthy, they are by no means good people, and if they really have to act in accordance with the rules, the Dao Palace will not develop to the current situation.
Thinking about this link, the people who came to visit the high tax difference dispersed silently.
The matter of the tax house was so gently and skillfully revealed.
A few days later, seeing that mid-September was about to end, Zhao Xinxin still didn't come back.
Li Yongsheng is a little worried about her, although according to the induction, she should not have encountered any danger, but the person in front of him every day, he has not seen him for a long time, and he is still not used to it.
So he took advantage of the fact that there was no one in the morning to go to Shuiyue Nunnery to see if he could find someone to inquire about the news.
Shuiyuean does not accept male guests, and there are individual courtyards not far away, but they only accept orders from male Taoists.
Li Yongsheng wandered around for a while, and did not meet any acquaintances, and asked the two Taoist aunts Zhao Xinxin for news, but the people looked at him vigilantly, and in turn interrogated him--Why do you ask about this?
That's what fame wears off.
Later, he also learned to be obedient, yes, I won't ask about the Ninth Princess, I'll ask Deng Die.
Don't look at Deng Die's cultivation, his popularity is really far inferior to Zhao Xinxin, but in the end, someone still gave the answer, that guy went back to the mountain, and he hadn't seen him for a while.
Li Yongsheng wandered around for a while, and found that there was nothing to gain, seeing that it was almost noon and the sky was not good, he planned to go back to the restaurant.
When I turned around, I saw an acquaintance, a gorgeous female Taoist priest with a pair of peach blossom eyes.
When Du Jingjing saw him, she greeted him with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time, your restaurant is very lively." ”
"Where is my restaurant?" Zhao Xinxin's," Li Yongsheng replied with a smile, and then took the opportunity to ask, "By the way, she hasn't come back since she returned to the mountain, what are she busy with?"
"She went back for her birthday, and she invited me," Du Jingjing replied very casually, "I didn't come out this time, it seems that the Linggu exchange was in some trouble, she is under investigation, she should come back soon......"
The Linggu transaction in the Xuannu Palace is actually used to buy people's hearts, symbolic means, and the disciples who have received the transaction task have received the Linggu from the treasury and handed back the gold, even if the task has been completed.
Generally speaking, no one is doing anything on it, but there are always some loopholes that can be drilled.
For example, the upper limit of the transaction is five taels of Linggu, and if you exchange it for fifty taels of gold, everyone basically exchanges five taels of Linggu at one time.
But if someone can't get together fifty taels of gold, they can only trade four taels or even three taels of Linggu.
Then the extra Linggu, the disciples who do the task, can privately exchange it for gold, and then sell it at a high price.
In Xuannu Mountain, Linggu can't afford to sell it at a price, and they don't dare to sell it at will, but they can increase the price and sell Linggu to acquaintances - these acquaintances can sell Linggu at a higher price if they sell it farther away.
Of course, to do this kind of thing, there must be a degree, and the share that others can't afford is the share that the disciples can rub the oil.
And Li Yongsheng said in public that he wanted to buy more Linggu, but no one dared to sell it to him.
This little bit of kitty is actually not a secret in the Xuannu Palace, and no one can afford this little money above the disciples of the Imperial Plate - it is really not worth it to carry a bad reputation for this little benefit.
The palace didn't plan to pay too much attention to this matter, but generally speaking, it would still arrange for a stable disciple to take over this task - Zhao Xinxin had this task all the time, just because she had a high status and a rich net worth, and theoretically she would not come nonsense.
A while ago, a disciple sold Linggu privately, got into a quarrel with the other party, and beat the person to death by mistake, but the family of the deceased ran to the deacon of the patrol to shout grievances, saying that it was a disciple of the Xuannu Palace who sought money and killed him.
This matter was a loss of money and dealt with in a low-key manner, but after the Xuannu Palace closed the door, it severely punished the disciple, and also thoroughly investigated the shortcomings of trading Linggu.
In fact, until now, no one thought that Zhao Xinxin would take advantage of this small advantage, but the process is like this, and it is impossible for Dao Palace to make an exception for her alone.
Du Jingjing explained the matter in a few words, and said with a smile, "In a few days, she will come back, it just so happens that Zhao Xinxin's child's restaurant, I haven't been to it yet, you take me to see it." ”
She said it with a straight face, and Li Yongsheng couldn't refuse, and Yongxin had invited her for her birthday, and he obviously couldn't spoil this friendship—although the Ninth Princess might have preferred to see him refuse.
The restaurant is not far from here, and the foot strength of the two of them arrived in less than half an hour.
"Our restaurant...... Zhao Xinxin also put some money," Du Jingjing stood outside the restaurant, bowing slightly.
In fact, such a small situation can't be seen in her eyes, she just casually praises it, but the next moment, her eyes narrowed, "Hey, why are there so many idlers at the door?"
There weren't many idlers at the door, just four or five, Li Yongsheng shook his head with a smile, "These are causing trouble, if an enemy chases them, they will hide in the restaurant to avoid trouble." ”
"That's what you prescribed...... You can't do anything in the restaurant?" Du Jingjing glanced at him with a smile, it was obvious that she was no stranger to the restaurant's actions.
Li Yongsheng didn't dare to provoke her casually, and replied vaguely, "In fact, it is the name of the palace, Zhao Xinxin originally wanted to experience the process of opening a restaurant, witnessing the prosperity and decline, and it can be regarded as a red dust experience, how can I not open my eyes too much." ”
"Hmm, can you actually witness the rise and fall of a restaurant?" Du Jingjing was stunned for a moment, a cultivator, who wouldn't care about the rise and fall?
After thinking about it for a while, she bowed slightly, "It sounds very reasonable, I am a little moved...... I'm also going to open a restaurant, how about you help me?"
The corners of Li Yongsheng's mouth twitched, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
Du Jingjing couldn't hear the answer, so she had to look sideways at him, and when she saw his appearance, she couldn't help but smile, "Are you worried that Zhao Xinxin won't agree?" I'll go and tell her that she still respects me very much." ”
If you open your mouth, she will definitely agree, but it's me who is miserable, Li Yongsheng laughed dryly, "Let's go two years, my mind in the past two years has been all on this restaurant." ”
Du Jingjing glanced at him again, stopped talking, and walked straight to the restaurant.
The two of them came back a little late, and there were already two tables of guests in the restaurant hall, and it is said that the private room upstairs had just sat in a table, which was to order the imperial dishes of the palace.
Li Yongsheng arranged for Xiao Er to serve Du Jingjing two dishes and a pot of wine, while he went to the counter and picked up the bill to read.
After a few glances, another table of guests came, and at this moment, Zhang Muzi also walked in from the back door, sat on Du Jingjing's table, and spoke expressionlessly, "How about the amount of wine?"
Deacon Du glanced at her and laughed, "Don't you need to cultivate to drive away alcohol?"
Zhang Muzi glanced at her disdainfully, "Drink with you, use cultivation...... That's bullying you!"
Du Jingjing grinned, "It's been a long time since anyone dared to bully me, Zhang Muzi, if you can bully me, I will promise you a condition." ”
The cultivators in the Dao Palace are really as many as Hua Xiu, but Zhang Muzi's reputation in the Arctic Palace is not weak, and he has been in the territory of the Xuannu Palace recently, and together with Zhao Xinxin and Li Yongsheng, he has killed two battles, and he is also a little famous in the Xuannu Palace.
"My conditions, I can tell you now," Zhang Muzi said lightly, "stay away from Li Yongsheng." ”
"Really?" Du Jingjing glanced at Li Yongsheng, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Is he yours?"
Zhang Muzi slapped his forehead speechlessly, "You are a ...... Forget it, it's better to drink the bar. ”
The two stopped talking, and drank cup after cup, and after drinking for a while, Zhang Muzi slapped the table suddenly, "You used your aura!"
"I didn't!" Du Jingjing snorted coldly, "Don't drink if you can't afford to lose!"
Before the words fell, only crackling sounds could be heard, but two tables of guests not far away were fighting.
(The third watch arrived, coinciding with the three hundred chapters, asking for a monthly pass.) (To be continued.) )
