One Hundred and Thirty-Five: The Old Hen Is Stolen
The Liu Mansion took the initiative to dismiss Mr. Wei Yuan, even if the other party already had the intention to resign, doing so would easily attract hatred. Eight??One?Chinese Network ＝≠≈≈＝＝≠＝≥≥≥
The most perfect way is to let Mr. Wei Yuan resign voluntarily, and write her a letter of introduction by the way, it doesn't matter where she recommends, anyway, she will go to Langya in the end, the key is "Mr. Wei Yuan resigns voluntarily"!
In this way, Mr. Liu Mansion and Mr. Wei Yuan have a higher level, and both parties are very happy.
Before Jiang Pengji came here, she didn't think too much about it, but after carefully observing Wei Yuan's expression and speculating about his psychological changes, she had a certain understanding. This gentleman is more powerful than she imagined. Or, this is the real A benevolent teacher who is willing to consider the future of the students.
This era pays attention to - a teacher for a day, a father for a lifetime.
Even if many teachers realize that they are not suitable for teaching students, they will insist on it for the sake of face, which in turn misleads their children.
Although Wei Yuan also has some flaws, he is fairly upright and will not embarrass the students on such issues.
"Langya...tsk, I hope you won't disappoint me."
With a swipe, he opened the sandalwood fan, leaned on the table, and closed his eyes leisurely, seemingly leisurely, but he was thinking about something.
The war situation in this era is completely different from her era, and there are too many differences in many places.
If you really want to do big things and compete in the world, you will fight for rice, second for people, and third for land.
Needless to say, rice grains can always be obtained if you think of a way. Is it also one of the open source methods to feed on the enemy and feed wars with wars?
"Territory" is easy to say, it will be a matter of time before Dongqing becomes chaotic.
But in the past few years, it's not too difficult to find a place to take advantage of the situation, and she has already picked out the places.
The difficulty lies in the second point - people!
Others can be dealt with, but "people" can't be messed with casually.
"People" does not just refer to military strength.
Simple troops can be solved with rice, food and money, build troops and buy horses, with a little training, they will more or less look good.
However, higher-level civil and military talents are not so easy to get.
The penetration rate of writing in this era is too low.
There are few people who can read and write, and those who are talented and capable are naturally even rarer.
Most of the truly talented people have their own ambitions and goals. If they can't completely convince them, they won't be able to use them if they get hold of them.
Jiang Pengji was not worried that she couldn't convince them, but that she couldn't find such a talent.
Once the talent is in hand, other issues can be deferred.
In her words - once you enter her door, you are hers! To be alive is to be dead!
The only people under her command are retired, serving and those who died in battle. Whoever wants to get out of the car halfway will not be slapped to death!
Yes, she is so domineering and unreasonable, and she hates betrayal the most. In her previous life, no one dared to reason with the commander of the Seventh Legion.
In addition to civil servants, there are also military generals. After all, you can't expect a group of literati to fight with knives, right?
The requirements of generals and ordinary soldiers are different. The latter only need to fight bloody battles, know how to cooperate with the army, are not afraid of death, and just beat the enemy to death, but generals are different. , It’s not enough to have a little skill.
Jiang Pengji can't use the requirements of her previous life to pick people, but the core is the same.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that I have a lot to do.
Moreover, when she talked about it carefully, she found that military generals had fewer choices than literati, and she felt sad.
Well, an anchor who doesn't aim at the emperor is not a good general—there's nothing wrong with that.
Jiang Pengji maintained the foxy smile that the live broadcast audience complained about, and jumped off without waiting for the groom to bring the sedan chair.
"Xu Ke returned home?"
Seeing the porter, Jiang Pengji asked abruptly.
The concierge looked confused, and had no idea how Mr. Lang knew.
Subconsciously bowed and answered, "Yes, that Xu Ke has been waiting for a while."
"He probably encountered some kind of problem." Jiang Pengji said with a smile, "Behave well and be careful not to let outsiders out."
The concierge was in a daze again. Since he was an outsider, he must have been careful not to let outsiders enter the mansion instead of going out, right?
However, the servants of the Liu Mansion are the most capable of delving into the minds of others, and the concierge is no exception.
He thought about Jiang Pengji's words inside and out, and suddenly he slapped his forehead and understood.
Now the "outsiders" in Liu's mansion, don't they mean the "madam's wife's master and servant" who entered the mansion yesterday?
The concierge said that Xu Ke had been waiting for him for quite a long time, but Jiang Pengji saw that this person was reading with great interest in the study, and he was not at all restless after waiting for a long time.
"Has something difficult happened to the farm?"
Jiang Pengji went straight into the study without saying hello, and sat down in front of the desk.
Xu Ke was so engrossed in watching it that he was almost taken aback by her.
Even though he was frightened, Xu Ke didn't do anything out of the ordinary, let alone throw out the letter in his hand.
He treasured it, and reluctantly put the slip back to its original place, straightened the hem of his clothes, made sure that his clothes were tidy, and then sat down again.
Xu Ke shook his head, and took out a self-made booklet from his sleeve, with tiny characters written on it.
Bamboo paper is limited, and he is also a frugal person, and it is easy to waste if the words are too large.
Jiang Pengji took it and looked at it. The above regulations clearly listed various data, and the content was well-organized. Even if the handwriting was small, it still did not appear chaotic. She was a little satisfied in her heart, Xu Ke was indeed talented in internal affairs, and was a good housekeeper... But, he still lacked a partner.
She thought of the captain who didn't know where to hide in Hejian, and her heart was agitated.
Xu Ke asked in a low voice, "What can Mr. Lang see?"
Jiang Pengji laughed and cursed and threw the booklet back to Xu Ke, and said angrily, "You have the face to tell me that the farm has been burglarized."
Yes, the above data is indeed very clear, Xu Ke did not cheat, so the problem is very clear.
According to the agreement at the beginning, Xu Ke can receive the money allocated by the Liu Mansion every month, which is used to buy the daily necessities and rice grains needed by the people in the trilogy. How to use this money and how to make the most of it is all in the hands of Xu Ke, and the prices of the purchased items are all fair.
Then the problem came, she took a look at all the things Xu Ke bought, as well as the changes in the items, and found something unusual.
Rice grains, cloth, and Xu Ke specially bought them for everyone in the trilogy, and the old hen who occasionally paid for some meat disappeared.
Naturally, these are not used right now, firstly, the time is wrong, and secondly, the number is also wrong.
The time is wrong, because when Jiang Pengji bought those servants back, Jiang Pengji had asked them to match them with a season's worth of clothes, and now there was no need to re-cut the clothes, even if they were cut as auxiliary materials for training. Not right either.
"No one was caught?"
Jiang Pengji didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she thought about many possibilities, but she never thought it was because of the theft of the farm.
Xu Ke looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, and said very seriously, "Your Majesty is wise."
"Smart head!"
Jiang Pengji was really laughing now. (To be continued.)
