Back Off, Let Me Come

It's one thing to know, but another to see it.

Gong Xiqiu, who came to pick up his eldest brother after receiving the news, happened to see this scene and couldn't help but look at Shen Tang with sympathy: "Mama?"

He wanted to ask, is she okay?

Shen Tang watched the pure gold statue disappear for a moment.

After a long while, he exhaled helplessly.

He waved his hands and said, "Just get used to this kind of thing."

She used to lose her temper and say a few words, but now she doesn't. It's not because she has matured, but because she has been working for too many years. Underneath her young and beautiful skin is a social animal's heart that has been tortured by 007*3. It’s great to live another day.

"It's just a pity that such a good statue..."

The artistic value alone can also be passed down to future generations as a tourist selling point.

She looked at Jimo Qiu apologetically.

No matter how generous the high priest was, Shen Tang, the recipient of the gift, was forcibly taken away by God before he could even touch the idol that he gave away, in front of the real owner, which made her somewhat embarrassed. It's not the most embarrassing, only more embarrassing. The front legs of the statue completely disappeared, and the baggage cart on the back legs was also damaged.

Shen Tang: "..."

Gong Xiqiu: "...how much do you owe?"

He was really worried that even his ancestral property would not be enough to pay this debt.

Shen Tang was speechless, laughing and laughing: "That's not important... What's important is that the money paid out has at least played a role... Let's think about it from another angle, the debt owed to God has no interest... Doesn't it feel like a small profit? Pen?"

Interest-free money is earned when you use it.

Gong Xiqiu curled his lips: "Maybe he has already accepted it. God didn't make a list for you. Who knows how much you will be deducted?"

A hard-earned fee is secretly deducted from each repayment, does Mama know?

Shen Tang: "..."

Gong Xiqiu was hit on the back of his head.

Jimo Qiu said seriously: "Don't talk nonsense about the way of heaven."

The fact that the law of heaven is supreme is not exaggerated, it is not deducted a point more, and a cent is taken away from it, but it is hard to say anything other than the law of heaven.

Gong Xiqiu: "Our family doesn't believe in the way of heaven."

What's wrong with talking a few words when questioning?

He doesn't believe this stuff when he's grown up.

Just as Jimo Qiu was about to speak, a high-pitched shout from Xun Zhen suddenly came to his ears. In full view of everyone, Shangshu of Hubu held two gold ingots in his hands and said excitedly: "There's still some left, there's still left!"

Shen Tang excitedly shouted: "Awesome!"

He took three steps and then two steps and jumped up to Xun Zhen.

Compared to Shen Tang's outward emotions, Xun Zhen was more restrained, but his hands holding Jin Yuanbao were still trembling with excitement, from which we could get a glimpse of his inner excitement. God started deducting money, and Xun Zhen didn't believe it and rummaged through the baggage trucks one by one.

Empty, empty, empty...

Still empty...

Just when he thought that this windfall could not settle the account, Xun Zhen discovered two gold ingots scattered in the corners of the wooden boxes on the baggage truck. The remaining fifty or so baggage trucks are still full! Jimo Qiu also made it clear that he was short of manpower and could only transport part of it.

What does this mean? It means that the Lord has no debts for the time being! This means that the remaining part can be used for other things.

How could Xun Zhen not be excited?

Even if the money was given to the Lord by Jimo Qiu, whoever saw it had a share, and the treasury could also absorb part of it. Xun Zhen was not greedy. He could give half to the treasury and keep the remaining half for future wars.

Thinking together, Xun Zhen arranged them clearly.

"Quick, call someone to take over!"

Xun Zhen immediately became full of energy, as if she was afraid that Shen Tang would regret it, so she had people come with blank account books, pens and ink, abacus and copper rights. Shen Tang, the leader of the country, was almost squeezed out of the crowd.

"Are all the people in Tobe's zodiac sign wolves?"

Everyone has green eyes.

Shen Tang muttered a few words, and seeing that he had nothing to do here, he rolled his sleeves and prepared to leave. Debt-free and light, her body felt lighter than ever before, as if she would fly with every two steps she took.

Gong Xiqiu looked at these people and frowned: "Reliable?"

Shen Tang's ears caught his words.

“What is reliable and unreliable?”

Gong Xiqiu: "Of course it's corruption and embezzlement."

He relied on his strength to be arrogant about everything, and didn't bother to worry about human relationships. He just said whatever he thought, completely ignoring that the Hube group was not far away. For those who can practice, is such a small distance different from whispering loudly and close to the ear?

Everyone in the household department became silent in agreement.

Shen Tang said: "You have to believe in the integrity of Kang's officials."

Touch her hard-earned money?

Do you really think she doesn’t play Jiuzu Xiaoxiaole?

Jimo Qiu: "Ah Nian, be careful what you say."

The elderly brother kept his mouth shut, which made him heartbroken. If it weren't for his extraordinary strength, Gong Xiqiu's grave would have been three feet high.

His brother's suppression forced Gong Xiqiu to close his eyes.

Gong Xiqiu snorted: "I believe it for now."

Everyone in the household department looked at each other, not daring to look at Xun Shangshu's face. Some of them also attended the wedding of General Xun. The woman was the female queen of the Gongxi clan, who was also the sister of Gongxi Qiu. The two families are considered in-laws after all. No matter how reckless Gong Xiqiu is, he will show mercy, right? As a result, he didn't care at all and directly asked his boss, the Ministry of Accounts, whether there was any possibility of corruption or embezzlement.

Anyone who hears this will be furious.

Even if you don't get angry, you will feel humiliated.

Unexpectedly, Shangshu Xun seemed to be in trouble.

He also waved his hands to signal everyone not to think too much: "The money that the high priest brought today is equivalent to three years of Kang State's treasury income. He only said a few words. Is it possible to lose a piece of meat? We are not afraid of slanting shadows. If you don’t have any ghosts in your heart, you won’t be afraid.”

If it was just a box of silver, and Gong Xichou dared to say this, Xun Zhen would roll up his sleeves and fight him to the death, but——this is three or four hundred baggage carts, and each baggage cart has three or five boxes!

Half of it is gold bars, and the other half is silver bars. The pure color reaches the peak of smelting and purification in the world, with almost no impurities. Even if most of it is used to pay off debts, there are still a lot left. Not to mention that corrupt officials can't control themselves, even honest officials will be shaken after seeing it.

Greed is human nature, and integrity is against human nature.

Is this greed?

Or not greed?

Shen Tang has great confidence in his own people, especially Xun Zhen: "It's hard to say about other people, but Han Zhang's Ministry of Revenue will not."

Xun Zhen never even had the idea of ​​greed, of course it's not that he regards money as dirt, it's purely because he knows that the money will be used by him in the end. Xun Zhen is the most excited to kill the termites in the Ministry of Revenue. Others are greedy for this money because they are greedy for his money.

In the final analysis, he is also "greedy".

However, his "greed" is different from that of normal people.

Gong Xichou also paid the price for his outspokenness and embarrassing others, and listened to Jimo Qiu's lectures all the way.

Alas, my ears are about to be callused.

Shen Tang also assisted: "I don't want to say anything about you. If you want to say it, change the occasion and consider Han Zhang. After all, he is your niece's grandfather. Why do you have to make a fuss if there is no conflict?"

Gong Xichou corrected: "She is called niece."

There is no distinction between inside and outside in the clan.

Shen Tang also changed his words: "Okay, your niece."

Gong Xichou then said: "If it weren't for the consideration of the relationship between relatives, there would be more than one sentence today. The father and son of the Xun family, the father is extravagant, and the son is not smart, how can I not worry?"

Shen Tang didn't understand what he was thinking.

I haven't heard that Gong Xichou and Xun Zhen had a conflict recently.

Or what happened during the days when she was in a coma?

She could only use her eyes to ask Jimo Qiu.

Jimo Qiu: "Anian wanted to take his niece away to raise her, and he rejected the name given by Xun Shangshu repeatedly, and they had a quarrel."

Shen Tang: "..."

Jimo Qiu said again: "Anian gave the name."

Xun Shangshu saw it and firmly opposed it, and Gong Xichou was unhappy.

The money that was deducted today was all spent by Xun Zhen, and Gong Xichou was even more unhappy, thinking that Xun Hanzhang was a spendthrift.

Shen Tang: "..."

Gong Xichou's naming skills?

Jimo Qiu said: "What the name is is secondary. What is written in the family tree does not mean what must be used in reality. This can be compromised. Anian wants to go back to the family to hold a big birthday party for the child. Xun Shangshu means that he can't make it for the full moon, and the first birthday party is just right, so it should be a big one. It's just that the family is remote, and it's inconvenient for guests to go there. He plans to hold it here in Xun Mansion."

The two had an unhappy quarrel over the venue.

Shen Tang: "What is there to argue about this matter?"

Gong Xichou said: "Because of face."

It's embarrassing in the family to let the man raise the niece.

Xun Zhen and his son were in such a difficult financial situation that Gong Xichou was helpless: "Alas, if Xun Yongan wasn't so disappointing, I would have to make plans for my niece's future. In fact, I would like to support you a little."

We share the good and the bad.

Gong Xichou also thought of helping Shen Tang when he saw that he was so poor.

Shen Tang: "..."

If she hadn't known the salaries of the officials of Kangguo, she would have really thought that she was treating the officials harshly. Gong Xichou used his own economic strength to measure others. How many people in this world are not poor? The corners of her mouth twitched slightly: "So, what will Yongan's daughter be called in the end?"

Gong Xichou said: "Dou, with the word Guanquan."

Shen Tang: "..."

Jimo Qiu whispered: "Originally, it was planned to be called 'Champion', but Xun Shangshu thought it was too ostentatious, so he changed it."

In fact, the revised version is not very good.

"So, call it Gongxi Dou?"

At first glance, this name sounds very powerful!

But -

"According to the way your clan calls nicknames, isn't this child's nickname... Adou?" Xun Zhen looked at the name of the third generation, is his heart okay? Shen Tang wanted to know what Xun Ding and his wife thought about it, "This name is not very good."

"The nickname is Ahua."

Shen Tang: "..."

Gong Xichou rubbed his chin: "But Adou is also OK."

It sounds cute, better than Ahua.

Shen Tang: "No, I'm afraid this baby won't be able to withstand falls..."

Gong Xichou's braids are full of question marks.

"What does this have to do with whether the child can withstand falls?"

Shen Tang: "..."

How should I popularize Gong Xichou about the adjective "Adou who can't help"? Gong Xichou doesn't know these, but I don't believe Xun Zhen doesn't know, how could this name be accepted by him?

"How did you snatch the right to name from him?"

Gong Xichou said concisely: "Spend money."

Shen Tang: "..."

I didn't expect you to be such a Xun Zhen.

_(:з」∠)_

In fact, Gongxi Chou not only used money to attack Xun Zhen, but also Gongxi Lai and Xun Ding. He bought the child's name.

Having money means you can do whatever you want.

Jimo Qiu sighed: "How can you use vulgar things to defile people?"

Gongxi Chou didn't think he did anything wrong: "It's useful."

Shen Tang, the poorest of the three, couldn't help but shed sad tears.

Listen, these two brothers are just beasts!

Is it human language?

I don't see these two working on weekdays, how can they be so rich?

Shen Tang not only thought about it, she also asked.

Gongxi Chou said: "How can you not make money in war."

He fought for Tang Guo in his early years, and then sold himself to other warlords. If the generals don't have enough money and food to fight, who would be willing to help? Gongxi Qiu disdained to plunder money after the war, because he knew that he didn't have to spend that much effort, and there were people who would give him a lot of money.

Shen Tang looked at Jimo Qiu: "What about you?"

Compared with his brother, Jimo Qiu is not good at fighting.

He can't get rich by fighting, right?

Jimo Qiu blinked in confusion: "Isn't it enough to have hands?"

Saving gold and silver is as simple as breathing.

Shen Tang: "...Specifically, how to do it?"

Jimo Qiu: "First, find a place with gold and silver."

For example, the gold and silver mines.

Shen Tang urged: "Then?"

Jimo Qiu replied: "Then plant trees."

Shen Tang: "..."

Plant the seeds of the sacred tree in the mountains near the gold mines, and when the seeds sprout and grow, the trees will bear fruits. These fruits are the original appearance of gold and silver bars. If not, how could the Gongxi clan not lack gold and silver? No matter how wealthy the ancestors were, they couldn't afford to hoard so many assets. Jimo Qiu added: "It's just that the soil in the mining area is poor, and the growth rate of the sacred tree will be very slow."

According to the records of the old clan, the original intention of this move was to purify and improve the land that was seriously polluted by radioactive metals, and metals were byproducts.

Shen Tang: "..."

Fight with you rich people!

Xun Zhen was busy until dinner time and came back to eat a few mouthfuls of rice. Before he even sat on the mat, he heard the news that Jimo Qiu came to visit.

"I wonder what the high priest has to say?"

Xun Zhen gave Jimo Qiu enough dignity as a financial sponsor.

"First, I came to apologize for the offense of Anian in broad daylight."

"We are family, so this is not an offense."

"Second, I want to ask, is Your Highness still short of money?"

Xun Zhen told the truth: "How can war not cost money?"

Not to mention the post-war pensions and resettlement, the daily military pay alone is a huge expense. If Lin Feng and others had not been able to solve a large part of the food supply, and the consumption of food transporters and cooks had been reduced, the Kangguo treasury would not be able to support two consecutive wars.

He was curious about why Jimo Qiu suddenly came to ask this.

Could it be that the Gongxi clan had other ancestral property that had not been taken?

Jimo Qiu naturally did not have it.

However——

He knew where there were mines.

These mines were mined manually, with low efficiency and low returns.

And he did not have these worries.

Xun Zhen asked in confusion: "Why?"

Spending a lot of money, there must be something to gain.

Fame, wealth and honor, there must be one.

Jimo Qiu said sincerely: "Your Highness must lower your eyes."

These five words brought great shock to Xun Zhen.

"Lower your eyes?"

"Yes, lower your eyes." I hope that His Highness will have him in her eyes, just like her subjects. Although it is a little crowded, he does not mind.

"No other purpose?"

"No purpose."

Xun Zhen took a breath of cold air.

He had previously guessed that Jimo Qiu contributed his ancestral property because he coveted the master, and there was a certain element of watching the fun and not minding the big deal, teasing the master's amazing charm. He never expected that Jimo Qiu was serious!

Not only did the other party mean it, but he also hit the weak spot.

Giving money, throwing money...

Just want to take one more look.

After a set of combos, who wouldn't be confused?

_(:з」∠)_

I passed the second science in one go, and I was completely unconscious.
