Back Off, Let Me Come

"Really?"

Shen Tang's face darkened as he confirmed with Qin Li again.

If even Qin Li didn't know, Xu Wenzhu was really promising.

Qin Li noticed that Shen Tang's tone and expression were different, and he hesitated whether to mention the matter of marrying into the family. After thinking about it, he still mentioned it, using euphemisms: "Wenzhu seems to be worried recently."

"Worried? What's the worry?"

"The marriage of a clan member."

Shen Tang knew that this was right as soon as he heard it, and said in a deep voice: "The marriage of a clan member? Humph, this clan member is not Xu Wenshi, right? What does Xu Wenzhu think, I don't know if it's sweet to force the melon?"

Xu Jie not only forced it, but also wanted to twist it.

Does he think Gong Xichou is someone who is easy to bully?

Qin Li carefully heard something strange.

So, the king and his minister began to check the accounts.

If it's wrong, I don't know, a pair of shocks.

Qin Li: "Isn't it Xu Wenshi who is happy with Gong Xichou?"

Shen Tang: "Isn't it Xu Wenzhu who forced Xu Wenshi to marry into the family?"

The king and his minister fell into a long and strange silence, looking at each other, and seeing doubts on each other's faces.

Qin Li's information came from Xu Jie, and after repeated confirmation, Xu Jie said that the information was correct. Shen Tang's information was extracted from Xu Quan and that strange family letter, and there could be no mistakes in the black and white. So what are these brothers doing?

People tend to laugh inexplicably when they are embarrassed.

Shen Tang scratched his hair, and asked angrily and amusedly: "I don't know what the family letter Xu Wenzhu received said, but why did he have such an outrageous misunderstanding? I admit that he is an open-minded patriarch, but is he too open-minded?"

How scared was Xu Quan?

Qin Li was speechless and choked.

However, Xu Jie knew a few reasons why he believed in Gongxi Chou: "Xu Wenshi has admired Gongxi Chou for more than ten years. His appearance, dress, words and deeds are similar to his. I heard from Wen Zhu that he even set up a club called Gongxi Chou Conservation Association. How can a general be the president of the club? He spends his rest time on it, which costs money, manpower and energy. So far, there are tens of thousands of members!"

To put it bluntly-

It's hard to recruit so many soldiers.

It costs money to recruit soldiers, and these members join voluntarily.

In his early years, Xu Jie could comfort himself by worshipping his cousin as an example. In recent years, Kangguo has been stable, so he wants to solve his cousin's lifelong event. Military generals may die in battle any day, so it is the mainstream to get married and start a family early to continue the incense. As a result, he was rejected by Xu Quan for the same reason every time he was asked to get married.

As for him to get married, he said that he wanted to imitate his idol and keep his virginity.

The virgin skill is the smooth road to the peak of martial arts!

[If it doesn't work, I'll go back and ask my eldest brother to adopt a nephew, as long as my eldest brother and his wife are willing to do it. ] Xu Quan had no idea of ​​getting married, and he had no obsession with offspring. Adoption could solve many problems. After saying this, Xu Quan was beaten.

It wasn't until the family letter gave Xu Jie a critical hit.

He knew that there was another reason why his cousin refused to get married.

Xu Jie was about to break down.

Looking back on the past, it turned out that everything had a trace.

Shen Tang rubbed his swollen forehead and was almost speechless: "The 'Gongxichou Conservation Association' you mentioned was initially established by Xu Wenshi and several rangers who worshipped Gongxichou, with the purpose of urging each other to practice. After I heard about it, I felt that there was a lot of potential. Young people still need to have more martial virtues to form combat power. Gongxichou can be promoted as a model."

Qin Li: "..."

Was he hallucinating?

Shen Tang's next words broke his thoughts.

He didn't hear wrongly. Shen Tang also had a part in this weird "Gongxichou Conservation Association". She thought it was fun at first, so she invested and took part in the operation, and left everything else to Xu Quan to figure out. Xu Quan knew that this club could attract more idol-worshipping people, and it was like a shot of chicken blood. When the scale was small, team building was held every now and then.

When the scale was large, other tricks began to be used.

Shen Tang also made a lot of money by taking advantage of Gong Xichou.

Of course, the bulk of the income was still kept in the club as funds, one-on-one targeted poverty alleviation, helping every motivated martial arts seedling to learn Gong Xichou's spirit of being stronger, more arrogant, and fighting without talking. Peripheral products, it's easy to make money.

The same hair accessories and clothing are the most basic.

From time to time, various co-branded products are launched.

Talented members will even write scripts for Gong Xichou, and then invite official troupes to perform for members, and the remaining tickets can be sold at a high price. Unknowingly, the scale of this club has expanded so much. Shen Tang selected a lot of good seedlings from it.

This is more convenient and accurate than the official selection of talents.

Qin Li was like listening to a book from heaven after hearing this.

Shen Tang dropped another bomb: "Some young people saw that the 'Gong Xichou Conservation Association' was doing so well, and they copied it to set up other conservation associations. Gong Su's popularity is not low."

However, the composition of these associations is more complicated.

The members developed by Xu Wenshi are all militant elements with abundant martial virtues, eager to be as powerful as Gong Xichou. Other members did not learn the essence, but wrote fan fiction without a teacher.

Some of them made her feel sullen.

In addition, inspired by [Five Elements Lack of Virtue], these fan fictions even have elements such as demons and monsters. They are still smart and dare not name who it is, but the identity of the protagonist can be inferred from the character and appearance of the protagonist. Shen Tang was amazed.

They have all written it, what should future generations write?

So far, it has not danced in front of the protagonist.

Otherwise, I don’t dare to think about the chaos in Baiguan’s backyard.

Qin Li's intuition told him that the Lord had important information that he had not disclosed, but he did not ask any more questions and prepared to investigate privately. The monarch and his ministers exchanged information and heaved a sigh of relief when they learned that the matter was a misunderstanding. Shen Tang said: "It's just a misunderstanding. Wen Shi almost cried in fear."

Qin Li said with a smile: "Wen Zhu really cried."

After this matter was resolved, Qin Li was concerned about another matter.

"When will the Lord be able to take charge of the throne?"

Shen Tang could not give an exact time: "Although we used strong troops to make Beimo and Gao surrender, we only conquered their borders, not the hearts of the people. Only by allowing them to live a more stable and good life than before, they I won’t miss the past.”

"It's hard to say whether this time can be long or short."

Before that, Qin Li still had to work hard at Fengluo, the capital of the capital.

"I still have to work hard for Gongsu these days." The work is tiring, and Qin Li is much thinner than the last time we met. Shen Tang feels distressed and pats the back of his hand, "I ordered someone to give Gongsu a gift, and make it according to the size in memory. Yes, I didn’t know you had lost so much weight.”

"It doesn't hurt to work harder if we can stabilize the rear for our lord."

He didn't ask what the gift was.

It's a surprise when you open a gift.

Shen Tang shared with Qin Li the joy of being debt-free and light-hearted. Qin Li was greatly surprised. Has Xun Zhen's power been reduced?

Xun Zhen's power was not restrained, but a rich man descended from the sky.

Qin Li was stunned for a moment.

"Could this Jimo High Priest be..."

Shen Tang played with the ring on his finger: "Hanzhang said he came for me. I don't doubt his sincerity, but I'm just a little confused - is he sure that I am someone he believes in? I always feel that this windfall It came too easily and casually..."

Of course she knew the importance of her vest to the Gongxi clan, and she did not doubt Jimo Qiu's determination to offer her everything. The Gongxi clan's ancestral property was too large. Even though Shen Tang has been running Kang State for so many years, he is still not as good as others.

The better it is, the more unreal it feels to her.

Compared with this kind of unreasonable following, she felt that Qi Shan and their surrender felt more secure - the relationship between monarch and minister was based on mutual demands, and Shen Tang clearly knew that he had to do this to make the relationship indestructible. Jimo Qiu is different, he has no agenda, which will only make her restless, and even want to burn down the bridge.

He should go to his God, not to her.

Qin Li said: "Why not?"

Shen Tang looked at Qin Li in surprise: "What?"

Qin Li said: "Although I don't know the hidden truth, I can't bear to hear that the Lord belittles himself. In this world, in Kang State, there are countless people who have never met the Lord, but just heard about the Lord's deeds and yearned for him. All people return to their hearts, that is, Mo Qiu He is also one of the ten thousand people. He may have a reason for his return, but the Lord doesn’t know it.”

He said extremely seriously: "If there is a spirit in the world, Lord, you are its incarnation, I have no doubt!"

Loving the Lord is as easy as breathing.

It was natural for Jimo Qiu to follow him. This windfall was also destined by the Lord. What was there to worry about?

Shen Tang was criticized for being so thick-skinned.

Qin Li asked another key question.

Jimo Qiuxian has so much money, can't it all be used to pay off debts?

Shen Tang said: "No, there is a lot left."

The national treasury and Shen Tang's private treasury were suddenly full.

Qin Li nodded with satisfaction when he heard this.

“It’s good that the national treasury is sufficient.”

It just so happens that projects that have been waiting for a year or two can apply for budget, especially the Taishi Bureau. Qin Li was not only the Minister of Rites, but also worked part-time in the Taishi Bureau. The Taishi Bureau also needs to take into account the meteorological changes in various regions within Kang State and accurately issue various disaster warning and prevention messages. If we want to ensure efficiency, we can't mix it with the post office. Qin Li wants to open a separate delivery channel and needs money.

Now that the treasury is rich, Xun Hanzhang can't give it back to himself, right?

After being a monarch for many years, Shen Tang knew Qin Li's plan at a glance and said with a smile: "Plenty is plenty, but there are also many places to spend money. Go and settle it with him before others react. If you want him to make things difficult for the Taishi Bureau, I'll intercede with you."

There are many monks but little rice, so we still have to grab.

Everything has a priority.

The role of the Taishi Bureau is important, but without its operation, there will be no major troubles in Kang State within two or three years. If other places are short of money, the shortcomings will be obvious in a few months. Naturally, Xun Zhen would be tight-lipped first, and then turn to the Taishi Bureau when she had more money. What's more, the Taishi Bureau didn't have no channels at its disposal. It would be fine to use the official post, but the efficiency was a bit slow, so it was just a make do. Qin Li also understood this, but now that he had the support of his master, he felt confident.

Qin Li cupped his hands and said, "Wei."

"The other thing is to collect rice seeds in the royal capital."

"Rice seeds?"

This thing is not common in Kang State. You can only see it in the southern border of Kang State, but the output is not high. The economy of Kang State has improved in recent years, and commercial banks will go to the southern countries to purchase.

The rice produced in the southern countries is also different. Some have long and soft grains, while others have short and round grains and a harder taste. The number of imports is limited, and they are generally provided to wealthy households with relatively good economics.

The common people in the market still mainly rely on corn.

Why does the Lord suddenly want rice seeds?

Do you want to improve it and promote it within the country?

Shen Tang's next words cleared up Qin Li's doubts: "Well, collect many varieties and try to select full rice seeds to send to the front line. I sent people to sneak into the southwest continent and borrowed a piece of land there to prepare to plant this plant. To save food."

Accumulate grain widely, build walls high, and slowly become king.

Don’t be afraid of old tricks, as long as they work.

As long as the rice production is sufficient, it is not impossible to counter the Cui family. For the aristocratic families, survival is the top priority. In the face of absolute interests, how long can the interest alliance between Qi State and Cui family last? She is also preparing to add some ingredients.

Qin Li: "What should we do without soldiers to protect it?"

It will be taken away even if it is grown.

Shen Tang smiled and said: "The mountain man has his own clever plan."

Qin Li did not ask any more questions.

Shen Tang thought about it again, to see if there was anything he hadn't explained yet: "By the way, Gong Su, there is one more thing you need to take care of. Send people to count the children in the territory in the next few days, and which county or town has the most children, and hand them in in order."

"Is there an age limit?"

"No matter whether they are male or female, twelve years old or younger."

Qin Li nodded and wrote it down: "I obey your order."

"Gong Su, aren't you curious about why I want these?"

Qin Li carefully noticed that Shen Tang's eyebrows were smiling and stretched, obviously it was a happy event, and asked obediently: "My lord, can you explain my doubts?"

"I plan to distribute pagoda candies according to regions."

"Pagoda candies?"

"Something that can prevent and treat Jiao Xuan, this thing can greatly reduce the risk of death in young children. When it is popularized among children of the right age, the scope will be expanded to the elderly in the territory, and finally the middle-aged and young people." The normal speed is definitely not that fast, but this world has the word spirit, and with the efficiency of Qi Miao and Lin Feng, it may be possible to see the finished product in one or two months. Shen Tang must prepare for a large-scale rollout one step ahead of time to avoid being in a hurry at that time.

Qin Li clapped his hands and smiled: "Great!"

After explaining the matter, Shen Tang exited "Dingding".

She closed her eyes to get through the discomfort of alternating illusions, and when she opened her eyes again, she was back to normal. She stood up and prepared to see Qi Miao's progress.

When Jimo Qiu came back, he brought Artemisia seeds.

The seeds were handed to Qi Miao, and everything was in his hands.

Shen Tang opened the tent curtain without anyone passing on the message.

Everyone in the tent turned their heads subconsciously to look over, and their hands were still in the original position. Shen Tang looked at them and put them down.

Take a deep breath and suppress the nausea.

Raise your hand and open the curtain again.

Very good, it's not an illusion.

"What are you doing?"

In the spacious tent, more than a dozen naked warriors were already kneeling on the ground, and five or six men and women dressed as military doctors also saluted.

Shen Tang was numb all over.

Did she just see someone eating roundworms?

The army ran out of ammunition and food?

Shen Tang rubbed his swollen forehead, and Qi Miao, who heard the noise in the tent, also rushed out. He knew that the master was irritated by this posture, and hurriedly explained that this was to test the efficacy of Artemisia scoparia.

Wudan warriors are not afraid of insect diseases, so they are naturally the best experimental subjects.
