063 Itchy Hands

[Please recommend, please collect]

The king of Shaozhou is unstable!

The King of Shaozhou is ready to make a move!

The King of Shaozhou is very likely to launch a rebellion at the northwest border of the Chen Kingdom!



This shocking information was personally reported to King Poyang by the palace steward.

After hearing this piece of information, King Poyang accidentally broke a teacup... Then he started to face the wall. He used a special brush dipped in blood-like cinnabar to mark "Shao" on the map of Chen State.

The word "King of State" is drawn with a big red "X".

Too much cinnabar was dipped in it. After drawing a big "X", the bloody cinnabar actually flowed down the map, like blood spatter, which was shocking!

As soon as the palace steward's eyes came into contact with the big red "X", his mind was shaken and he felt worried.

If the prince's worries become reality, then...

The palace steward did not dare to think about it further.

"Why!"

King Poyang suddenly sighed heavily.

The steward of the palace immediately stopped his random thoughts and looked at the back of the prince. He knew that the prince had finished thinking and was about to express emotion or issue some orders.

He removed the distracting thoughts from his mind, stared at Prince Poyang attentively, braced himself, and waited for the prince's instructions.

"Immediately send someone to the Jiangzhou camp, invite Vice General Chen, and say that I have something important to discuss with you. Hey, we must be prepared for the worst..."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The butler of the palace was shocked and took the order to leave.

The strange thing is that at this time, the housekeeper had a feeling in his heart, as if his whole body was filled with a kind of power. This kind of power was very powerful, making his hands and feet more agile, and his ears and eyesight...

There is a feeling of great responsibility!

"etc!"

King Poyang suddenly stopped the palace steward again.

The butler immediately stopped, turned around, and bowed: "What else does the prince have to say?"

"Then Zhu Xiuyuan is in the state office, but there is still no action?"

"Your Majesty, according to reports from spies, Zhu Xiuyuan did not take any action in the prefectural government office, Cangcao. He only familiarized himself with the affairs of Cangcao with his subordinates every day."

"Got it!" King Poyang nodded slowly, with an incomprehensible expression.

After the butler bowed, he exited the study and went to the Jiangzhou camp to invite Vice General Chen.





Dong's Mansion.

East courtyard.

In Zhu Xiuyuan's room.

Early in the morning, the little maid Qiu Wen came over to shake his hand and shouted: "Uncle, it's time to get up. If you stay late, you will delay the appointment at the Yamen..."

"Well..." Zhu Xiuyuan opened his eyes with difficulty, glanced at Qiu Wen, and immediately closed them again. He wrapped his limbs under the quilt and twisted around, covering his head and face.

"Uncle, aunt!" Qiu Wen persisted.

"Qiu Wen, now that the weather is getting colder, it's a good time to sleep in. Please let me sleep a little longer!"

"Uncle, it's time for me to send someone to invite you later..."

Seeing that Zhu Xiuyuan was too lazy to get up, Qiu Wen had no choice but to move her uncle's father-in-law out.

"Hey!" Zhu Xiuyuan sighed, slowly lifted the quilt, and muttered: "I am lazy, but I have to go to work. When will this hard life end..."

Qiu Wen smiled and asked, "Uncle, what is 'going to work'?"

Zhu Xiuyuan glanced at Qiu Wen, opened his arms, and let Qiu Wen help him change his clothes. At the same time, he said: "I go to the Yamen every day to go to work. By the way, do you have any food with you? Give me a piece."

"Some, some, some."

Qiu Wen hurriedly agreed. After tying Zhu Xiuyuan's waist, she took out a handkerchief from the sleeve of her clothes and unfolded it happily. Inside was something wrapped in oil paper. After unfolding the oil paper, she took out a piece of "cowhide wrapping".

Zhu Xiuyuan chewed and completed the usual steps such as changing clothes, washing up, eating breakfast, etc. After changing into his official robe, he followed his father-in-law to the Yamen to order mao...

Through these few days of study, Zhu Xiuyuan has a general grasp of Cangcao's business.

To put it simply, Cangcao is in charge of the public house, measurement, cooking, warehouse, renting, expropriation, pastoral, and store affairs.

In fact, Cangcao can be said to be a lucrative position. The free warehouse under the warehouse category alone made the previous Sicang's army earner crazy, and he also lost his head because of it.

As for other things, such as renting taxes, expropriating taxes, farmland, shops, etc., there is plenty of money and water in any of them. You only need to move your hands and feet a little, and before you know it, the money is rolling in...

But Zhu Xiuyuanzhi was not here. After he took control of Cansao's business, he threw it aside and did not interfere too much with the current rules, whether it was explicit rules or secret rules.

He is only interested in "data".

In his previous life, Zhu Xiuyuan was a small employee in a company. One of his job tasks was to analyze various data...

He was proficient in this and liked to do it, so he wondered how far he could analyze data in ancient times when there were no analysis tools, no common Excel, and no even a computer.

.

Zhu Xiuyuan's old habit of "exploring" happened again. Anyway, Cangcao's daily affairs are handled by someone. He is a newcomer and is actually quite free, so why not give it a try?

My hands are itchy and I can't control myself.

Zhu Xiuyuan has been doing this for the past two days, leading a few "obsessed" scribes to pull out various data from a whole room of old materials...

In fact, the scribes who were pulling the data were a little confused and didn't know what they were doing. But out of admiration for Zhu Xiuyuan, they gave themselves a hint that this was a big event and that they could participate.

It's an honor.

Therefore, the scribes did not dare to slack off at all, and worked meticulously every day, forgetting to eat and sleep.

But what Zhu Xiuyuan didn't expect was that his "itchy hands" behavior would actually bring confusion and distress to others.

Naturally, it was not his father-in-law Dong Cheng who was confused. In fact, Dong Cheng only briefly asked, Zhu Xiuyuan casually fooled him, and the matter passed just like that. Dong Cheng did not go into details and let his good son-in-law toss it around.

Dong Cheng probably thought that these were the "three tips for new officials" of his good son-in-law, and those scribes who were forgetting to eat and sleep in the warehouse were naturally the ones who had offended his good son-in-law.



Flower Mansion.

Jiangzhou Governor Hua Chaoshi, his son Huajianhu, and Jiangzhou Sima Wanqian, the three "giants" gathered together again.

"Sir, what does Mr. Changshi think of the Dong family's son-in-law's move?"

Jiangzhou Sima Wanqian raised his hands and asked. After asking, his treacherous-looking head tilted, as if he remembered something again, and added: "I heard that Dong Cheng has mastered a method of settling accounts.

That's how he found...that person's loophole. Could it be that the Dong family's son-in-law was looking for what I was waiting for..."

Wan Qian gave him a look, saying that there are some words that really shouldn't be said out loud!

Jiang Governor Shi Hua Chaoshi frowned, then relaxed, and said with a smile: "Sir Wan, this matter should be fine. You know that Mr. Accountant in our mansion is very capable and can make false accounts.

It’s a miraculous workmanship, and it’s not so easy to detect!”

"Having said that, I still feel a little uneasy in my heart. That person..."

Wan Qian thought of the last time Sicang joined the military. He was tortured by "being unable to see, hear, see, and write". Although they were inflicted on him, but think about it... Wan Qian couldn't even think about it.
