Seventy-four: Fermentation


It was still noisy inside, and shouts and curses could be heard from time to time.

Hanbo asked impatiently: "What's going on in there?

There's such a big commotion.

Can you still do business?"

This place is already in Baoding.

According to the information given by Third Young Master Lin, this teahouse should be opened by a military household.

Seeing the commotion, Hanbo always felt that something was going on, so he deliberately tried to test it.

The fat woman had already started to clean up the table quickly.

Seeing that they were spending so much money, she didn't even have time to go in and get a rag.

For fear that they would run away, she quickly wiped the table with her sleeves and even wiped the stools clean. , on top He took a few breaths and asked them to sit down.

Only then did he have the time to reply to their words.

He glanced inside with disgust and smiled sarcastically: "It's all the arrogant people who are fighting for the money.

They're afraid of the money."

It’s like you can’t carry it into a coffin” After she finished mocking, she coaxed Han Bo and others to sit down: "You sit down first.

Sit down first.

They won't be arguing for long.

It will be over in a while.

We are the only teahouse nearby.

We need to find a place to stay.

Except here, unless you go to the next city, there will be nothing else.

Let’s see what you want to eat.”

Han Bo and Xuesong looked at each other, pretended to be hungry, touched their stomachs and asked Shen Chen what he meant: "Master, what she said makes sense.

We have just come out of the city.

If we can't get anything to eat here, I've been hungry for a while, so you can make do with it here."

Shen Chen nodded and frowned: "This is too noisy.

The landlady asked them to keep their voices down."

The fat woman agreed with a sigh, and when she saw that they took out another two taels of silver as soon as they made a move, and only asked for a few pots of tea, she was so surprised that her eyes almost popped out of her head, and she squeezed through the crowd with brisk steps and got in.

After a while, he came out with a pot of tea and poured it for them: "You guys can use this hot tea first.

I still have steamed buns in it, so I will bring it to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a huge noise inside.

A girl about ten years old hurried over to the proprietress and told her in a tearful voice: "My mother was beaten, my third uncle beat him, and my third aunt pulled his hair."

The fat woman gritted her teeth and cursed.

She wanted to rush in but had to take care of the group of generous guests outside.

She was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.

The girl then reached out to pull her clothes: "Mom, please go in quickly.

Daddy can't carry it alone."

The fat woman gritted her teeth.

Seeing Han Bo and the others looking over curiously, she smiled and said, "I'm sorry, this is really true."

At this moment, there was another scream like a slaughtering pig.

She couldn't bear it anymore, so she grabbed a stool and rushed in.

On the other hand, the little girl bit her finger and looked at the snacks that Han Bo took out, her eyes bright and refused to move.

Han Bo was always good at teasing children.

Seeing her like this, he waved the snacks in front of her and asked her, "Do you want to eat?"

There are people coming and going on this road.

There is no such thing as finesse in raising children.

It is a great virtue for the children to be well fed.

The girl has never seen such beautiful and exquisite snacks, and she nodded with shining eyes. .

Wei An moved the box towards her and said with a smile, "Take it then."

Seeing that they were all gentle and didn't seem to be teasing her, the girl hesitated for a moment before reaching out to grab them, and soon started gobbling them up.

Wei An and Shen Chen looked at each other, poured another cup of tea in front of her and asked her to eat slowly.

When she was almost finished eating, Wei An casually glanced into the teahouse and asked her: "By the way, what's going on here?

Why are your parents fighting with others and not doing business?"

The girl took a bite of the red bean cake, and her face showed some grievance: "Uncle San, they won't give us any money."

Her aggrieved eyes were red.

She looked at the red bean cake and couldn't swallow it for a moment: "My father used to be a soldier.

He got military pay and military rations every year.

He broke a leg but for some reason he didn't.

Now, if we want to farm, we have to pay rent.

If my father can’t afford it, I’ll give up the land and open a teahouse with my mother.”

Han Bo hummed and asked her: "Then why did the quarrel begin?"

"It's because for some reason, the military pay has to be repaid."

The little girl became happy and looked at them with smiling eyes: "My father has twenty taels of silver."

Reissue military pay

The Zhou Dynasty had a policy of letting these military households fight when there was a war, and let the military households farm when there was no war.

No matter how you calculate, these military households would not receive more than this little money.

And I heard from the little girl that her father also broke his leg.

For someone with a broken leg, the imperial court will give him a lot of money as a pension, and he also has tax-free privileges.

Why are they still saying they won’t give him land for farming?

Wei An thought for a while and asked the little girl: "If that's the case, then why did your third uncle and your father quarrel?

What is the relationship between your third uncle and your father?"

The little girl scratched her head and said with some understanding: "I don't know either, I just know that Uncle San is not a military household like us, he is a scholar.

Uncle San said, if it weren't for him, my father wouldn't even have these twenty taels."

He couldn't get the money, so he asked my father to give him ten taels, but he refused and started a quarrel. " The little girl was very aggrieved: "Uncle San works for Qianhu and he has money.

But my nephew is sick.

He relies on this money to survive and treat his illness.

My mother is not willing to give it to him, and my father is not willing to give it to San."

Uncle San and Aunt said that they should go to Qianhu Office and tell Mr.

Qianhu that they would sue us and not give us any money."

What Qianhu does Han Bo touched his chin and winked at Xuesong.

Xuesong went to see Shen Chen first.

Shen Chen gently let the little girl take whatever she wanted from the box.

When she saw that she wanted to give it to her nephew, he smiled and nodded in agreement.

He said to Xuesong, "Go and bring him out and let me take a look."

He paused and said, "I would like to see that the people in Qianhusuo are actually so powerful.

They set their own standards for how to distribute money, and they can also decide who to give money to and who not to give it to."

Because such a bad thing happened, the cabinet and Emperor Longqing quickly made a decision to ask the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs to make up for the shortfall and compensate these military households.

Shen Chen didn't know the specific standard of compensation, but he also knew that it would never be four years and twenty taels.

Originally, these morons had already enriched their own pockets, but now they even want to pay them another sum of money.

It is really outrageous.

And Chu Jingxing, who collaborates with these people and provides a breeding ground for them, is even more contemptible.

As long as he can do well, this person doesn't care about the life and death of others.

He thinks that everyone should give way to him.

He is selfish and has no qualifications to stand in the position of the prince:
