The banquet was set on the third floor. According to Li Qing's requirements, the three big tables were arranged in a row, and there was no need for too much food. I guess these gentry bosses would not be able to eat after listening to Li Qing's words. Just be more frugal, but wine must not be missing, and they all need strong wine. This is the reason, haha! I won't tell you, everyone knows it.

The restaurant shopkeeper had already arranged the seats that Li Qing had arranged in advance and placed the seat stickers with the name. This row of seats was of particular importance. Two people with similar financial resources must sit next to each other. In this way, when a person has donated twenty trump cards, the person next to him will be embarrassed to donate only ten trump cards. It would be better that the two of them would not buy each other. If you donate twenty trump cards, then I would donate thirty trump cards.

Li Qing smiled and looked at everyone in the seat one after another, as if it was a shepherd. He counted a group of fat sheep into the pen, with a total of thirty-six heads, and a lot of them. When he saw that everyone was in the seat, the wine glass in front of each of them was already full, he coughed, stood up and raised his glass and smiled, "Dear fellow villagers, today is my first treat to Yibin County. Everyone here has been selected by me repeatedly. They are all the beams of this county and the wealth of this county... This is a talented man." He almost lost his words and said to be a rich man.

"I won't say much nonsense, I'll give you a drink first!"

After saying that, he raised his neck and poured the wine. The county magistrate drank first. How dare the people below stand up and raised their glasses. Then they found that the glass seemed to be bigger, one for the three, who were ordinary, and they wanted to invite a friend to change one. But at a glance, they saw that the glasses in the cabinet were even bigger, which was already the smallest. They had no choice but to drink them with their teeth. The wine was strong, as if the Hu people were drinking a knife. After a glass of wine, they felt like they were burning. They raised their chopsticks to eat evenly, but suddenly they found that there was not a plate of dishes on the table. This was naturally not the responsibility of the county magistrate. A group of people had long cursed the 18th generation of the hotel shopkeeper's ancestors.

Just as everyone was drinking tea to put out the fire, Xiao Er was quick-handed and filled the wine with everyone. Several people whispered to him, why he didn't serve the food yet? The waiter naturally explained that the kitchen was already being cooked, so it would be fine soon.

At this time, a veteran squire raised his wine glass and stood up with a smile. According to the previous design, the squire played the role of Tuo. His task was to set off the atmosphere. At the most critical moment, he led everyone's swaying psychology to the kind side, just like the boy who was scattered in front of the Bodhisattva's seat.

However, this boy with money seems to be a little older. He is nearly seventy years old and is a juren. His ancestors are all landlords for three generations. He is a well-known and has been a village chief for several years when he was young. Therefore, he has a high level of thought. He smiled and raised his wine glass and said, "Mr. Li, the next surname is Zhao, Bo Wei, is the oldest among the villagers here, so I recommend myself as the representative of the villagers. I wonder if you agree?"

His goatee raised high, as if he was telling a story to a child. He bent over and looked at everyone eagerly. Everyone was infected by the old man's enthusiasm, and perhaps alcohol played a role, and they all applauded, which was considered to recognize his identity as the temporary representative of the wine table.

"Okay! Everyone raises their glasses and returns our feelings to the county magistrate."

Everyone looked at each other. It turned out that he only spoke to everyone, not everyone was drinking. Seeing that the county magistrate was so moved that he stood up, holding a glass of wine to wait for his respect, it seemed that this glass of wine could not escape.

Helplessly, I had to grit my teeth and stuff the glass of wine again. In this way, I didn't eat a bite of the food, and I had already had six glasses of wine. I had already blushed a lot. I came to the banquet with my stomach for a few noons and gradually lost my attitude. I excitedly pushed an empty cup on my head, laughing, saying that I had already drunk it.

Seeing that the wine was almost done, someone would probably get into the table and pay tribute to the tent, Li Qing winked at Zhang Wang. Zhang Wang pushed the door out, and all kinds of dishes came in one after another, filling the table with a lot of soups. A few soups were even cold, so they were not made.

Li Qing hurriedly raised his chopsticks and said, "Don't just drink, eat vegetables! Eat vegetables!"

He had just drunk two cups of tea and wine, and his mouth was so light that he had already killed a pair of chopsticks at a big sweet and sour carp.

At this time, the representative of the wine table raised his glass again and stood up with a smile, scaring that almost everyone at the table lay down.

The representative of the wine table laughed dryly and said, "This glass of wine is free, you don't have to finish it." Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief and relieved his troublesome resentment.

"This glass of wine is a thank you Lord Li for your kind invitation tonight. Everyone here has a common wish, which is to hope that County Magistrate Li can lead everyone to make a lot of money and make a fortune. Every family has a full cabinet of money and rice and grains, and everyone is full of warehouses. Are you saying I'm right?"

Everyone thought that this was almost the same. When they thought that money, grain, silver and rice were as full as he said, how beautiful it would be. They gradually forgot the pain of drinking, their eyes became hot, and with the strong momentum of burning the knife, they all became extremely excited and shouted: "Yes! Yes! Monkey, silver and rice, and rice were full of warehouses."

Li Qing thought to himself, "What money is full of silver? I will take out my money for building bridges and roads first," he laughed and said, "Mr. Zhao's words express everyone's thoughts. As a county's parent official, how can I pretend that I didn't hear everyone's wishes? Taking advantage of today's opportunity, I will also dig my heart for everyone and tell you how I can make everyone full of silver boxes and rice warehouses."

Everyone's ears were erect, and there were two people who were confused about their daughter's lifelong affairs. They didn't hear the county magistrate's words and came up to toast without any wits. As a result, they returned to their seats in awe of reprimand and anger.

Li Qing waved his hand with approval, as if he was satisfied with everyone's attitude. Everyone immediately calmed down and listened to the county magistrate's lecture.

"When I first came to take office, I found that our Yibin County seemed to be raised by my stepmother, and everything was behind Nanxi County. Even the salary of our county had to be taken to Nanxi County. Why is that? Later, I realized that our geographical location was worse than it. The daughter of the God of Wealth was married to Nanxi County. But now, I just got great news from Chengdu. It is time for our Yibin County to turn over. I want to make a small number of people rich first, and then drive more villagers to become rich."

Speaking of this, Li Qing stopped talking and looked at everyone with expectations, meaning that these small groups of people are you! Everyone's hearts were thundering as he looked at them, "bang! bang!"

"Mr. Li, can you tell us what great news is, so that we can prepare earlier?" This is naturally the representative of the wine table talking too much.

Li Qingzhi shook his head, "It's about the official secrets, so you can't spread it randomly, it's hard to say! It's hard to say!" He raised his glass and smiled, "I invite everyone to drink and have a meal. I don't talk about business at the table, come! I'll give you another glass."

This glass of wine seemed to be a big rock blocking the mountain of gold, and everyone had to drink it, but the seeking wealth that he was hooked up by him looked like a bunch of fire, burning with the warming of alcohol. Everyone talked and said that their mouths were firm and they would never go out to talk nonsense. They only hoped that the county magistrate would briefly reveal the inside information.

Seeing that the fire had arrived, Li Qing nodded and glanced at the door. Two clever ones jumped up to drive the guy out and closed the door again. The room was silent, everyone bent forward, and only the turbid sound of their nose breathing in the air was heard, their mouths were closed tightly, and their ears were squirting slightly.

"Okay, I'll reveal one or two to everyone." He lowered his voice and said, "I got the exact news from Chengdu that the Nanxi County Wharf will be allocated to the military for special purposes."

This is like the expired medicine. Some people have no response after hearing it, while some people are so allergic that they almost faint. For a long time, there was a sudden shouting sound in the room. Some people even felt that they were eager to leave the seat and were anxious to go home to report.

"Does Lord Li mean that in the future, our Yibin County can replace Nanxi County?"

"That's right, this is what I'm talking about the opportunity to get rich. Our Yibin County has many mountains and few lands and is sparsely populated. If you want to get rich, you can only rely on the Minjiang River. If you rely on freight and trade, you can go to Chengdu and go to the south to do big trade. If you have small capital, you can open inns and run restaurants to earn money from people from all over the country. Think about that situation. All the merchants and cargo ships broke their heads and squeezed into our Yibin County, rushing to stuff the silver into your pocket. Can you still cover your pockets?
