Chapter 421 Can’t afford the price the marquis wants


    Tang Gang''s goal was not achieved, and Xin An was worried that he would do something secretly.


    But Xin Kuan said that Tang Gang had gained enough benefits in this trip. Since Tang Gang arrived in Huaijiang, Xin Kuan has been building momentum for him. Especially this time when he was sick, Xin Kuan has spread his righteousness well, completely erected him, and now he has grasped his handle again.


    "No official can resist not reaching out to the donation, and he is the same. This matter was sent to his hands by my Yao family and I. The officials in the city are all involved. Fortunately, they all know the importance and are not too greedy."


    "Even if he is dissatisfied with me in his heart, he will have some concerns."


    At this point, Xin Kuan couldn''t help but sigh. The more he knew, the more he felt heartbroken. Those officials of the court did not regard the people as human beings. If the court distributed one million taels and ate them layer by layer, they could eat 900,000, and the remaining 100,000 could barely be used on the people.


    This time, these officials only had 10% of them, and he felt very conscientious.


    Xin''an said: "The water is clear and there is no fish. Those officials will not contribute their efforts if they don''t get the benefits. If they don''t work, they will not get more donations. This matter is just that the emperor is afraid that there is no good idea. As long as most of it can be implemented, they will have the desired effect."


    Xin Kuan is not too pretentious. He has no ability to change the rules. He can only go with the flow and do not lose himself as much as possible.


    The father and daughter discussed for a while and told Xin Kuan what they had just received, "My man has arrived in Songyang County. Even if that person is outstanding, he is just a rich young man who has not experienced the storm. How many methods can he have seen?"


    "You wait for the news."


    Xin''an can afford to wait, "I''ll thank you for your hard work to keep an eye on this matter."


    Her father took action personally, and she was very relieved.


    From that night, Xin Kuan stopped mentioning this matter in front of Tang Gang. He also went to the Zhou family in person without hiding the inside story. Master Zhou bowed and thanked him for his openness. He also cut the visiting gifts he had prepared to send to Tang Gang in half, and only visited him in person as a turn.


    At that time, Tang Gang thought that Mr. Zhou was here to ask him personally, but the other party just asked about his well-being for a while and then left. Tang Gang had a guess in his mind.


    No one mentioned this matter again in the past two days. Tang Gang was waiting. When Xin Kuan gave in, he decided in his heart that as long as Xin Kuan came to ask him again, he would lower his request and agree to the matter.


    But Xin Kuan is very busy. In addition to his own business, there are also charity halls. When the charity money has reached so much, he always has to come up with details on how to spend it as soon as possible. He should not make the people think that this is another matter of selling dog meat with the help of sheep.


    Tang Gang can pat his **** and leave, but the Xin family still needs to live here for a long time.


    "The Yao family won the case of the surname Guan in the Charity Hall, and the Yao family is willing to donate an additional 300,000 taels for this."


    "The merchants from other places have also arrived. In addition to the four million taels taken away, they have raised a total of more than 6.7 million taels of donations, and there are still half a month before the charity is settled. When the adults from the Hanlin Academy arrive, they should be able to stimulate some people to donate."


    "This is the account book, please read it."


    Tang Gang looked around for a few times and handed it back to him, then glared at him and spoke.


    Xin Kuan bowed, "If the marquis didn''t give me instructions, I would go and do it."


    "Are you angry with me because of the Zhou family?"


    There is no longer a step, so Tang Gang can only speak first.


    Xin Kuan said: "Mr. Marquis is too worried. I have conveyed this matter to the Zhou family. The Zhou family is really as I expected and is too cautious. I am worried that what I do in the future will go against their family motto. It is because I am not considerate and makes the Marquis laugh."


    Tang Gang was speechless for a moment, which was completely different from what he expected.


    "What, the Zhou family is not going to go on a career in the official career?" He spoke up on his own initiative. If there is a step, he will hurry down and ask me for help. I will not make things difficult for you.


    Unfortunately, Xin Kuan couldn''t hear his voice, and he even gave up. "I wanted to leave, but they couldn''t afford that price, so they could only do their best to leave their destiny. I also feel very sorry. With the support of the Marquis, I don''t have to take many detours, alas~"


    "Is this what I want to get the support of this marquis, but I don''t want to pay the price?"


    Tang Gang found it ridiculous.


    Xin Kuan said: "I can''t afford the price I want. I can''t afford to bet. You don''t need to care about them. The Zhou family is used to being cautious."


    The Zhou family retreated, and it was naturally impossible for the Xin family to have 200,000 yuan. Tang Gang''s eyes were cold, "Since that''s the case, then give up."


    He was so angry.


    A dizziness came, and Tang Gang felt that he should go and lay down.


    Xin Kuan left simply. Tang Gang was the least open-minded person he had ever seen. No, why did his son be so virtuous as a hero?


    Three days later, the adults from the Hanlin Academy came. A few experienced people brought seven or eight young people. They learned that they were here to write books and biography for those merchants. They were quite dissatisfied and felt that writing was an insult to the books they read.


    When they learned that they could get ten taels of silver when writing a biography, and three more prizes for another five taels of silver when writing three. They didn''t say anything, and secretly found Xin Kuan, saying how good they wrote their own handwriting and how fast they were when writing books, and asked them to distribute more.


    The Hanlin Academy sounds nice and has no good results. The word "Qingqi" is left with only "Qingqi". But no one wants to support the family, especially some of them, who have tightened their belts to provide for it, and they are waiting for his reward.


    Ten taels are enough to make them moved.


    "The hands are constantly talking, and the pen is constantly."


    Xin Huan found it interesting, "I used to think that Hanlin Academy was a very precious place, but now I feel that no matter how many books I read, the premise is that he is a human being, and he cannot become a god, and he still has worldly desires and wants to eat grains and grains."


    "It means that these people are not pedantic because they study too much. You can learn well while they are here."


    In the past few days, Xin An either accompanied Wang out shopping or answered the post to go out for a banquet. She has experienced the joy of being the highest in the whole process. She does not need to flatter or deliberately please. The boring banquet has become more interesting.


    It is precisely because of this that she is more eager for power.


    No one is born to like to flatter others.


    Xin Huan asked a boy standing in the distance to come over and turned to Xin An and said, "Didn''t Aunt Cuiping want to adopt a child? See if this is OK."


    The six-year-old boy, chubby, walked up to him and kowtowed to Xin''an, "Yao Sheng has met the young lady."


    "Yaosheng?"


    Xin An asked him to get up, and Xin Huan said that the child''s family was gone. "I picked it up on the way to the Spring Festival travel rush. I followed my parents to come from the northwest. I suffered a disaster on the way. The boy hid behind an old willow and escaped, and called him Liu Sheng."


    "Do you know what the family is doing, and who else is there?"


    How could she feel so familiar to the child from the northwest who encountered a sudden disaster?
