I Am The Landlord In Another World-Chapter 31

“I’ll think of some ways for you. I’ll let you know when I get the results. ” Zhang Hongjiang said after thinking for a while. Perhaps Zhang Hongjiang had seen the use of Tang Wen, so he immediately wrote an official document and arranged for a bailiff to be sent to the provincial capital as fast as possible. Of course, the provincial governor’s office did not have the authority to approve the promotion of noble titles, as that was a matter for the Imperial Clan Court of the great Chu dynasty. The Imperial Clan Court was the highest institution in the great Chu State to manage the Imperial clansmen, and it was under the responsibility of the Prince. However, the royal family of Chu State had also set up four halls of great disciples outside, namely the north, south, east and west Halls. The Linghai province belonged to the Nan Tang, who was in charge of the six southern provinces of the great Chu State. The hall was located in ocean Saint City, the largest city in the South. It was 2000 miles away from Linghai provincial city and was managed by a King of the imperial family. The rank of an Earl was not high. After the provincial governor’s office passed through the customs, it would be sent to sea Saint City. After the sea Saint King approved it, it would be submitted to the capital’s Imperial Clan Court for registration. Of course, if it was the title of Marquis, the Imperial Clan Court would have to personally go through it and get the emperor’s approval. After all, the Marquis was an Overlord of a region, and he couldn’t be careless. “Yang Yun, what do you think of Tang Wen?” Zhang Hongjiang asked after Tang Wen left. “I haven’t been in contact with him for long. The last time I came to somi Island to deal with official business, this is only my second time. Don’t look at his young age, I feel that this person is quite smart. If we can give it to others, when SuMei Island is developed, we can turn in a large amount of food next year. ” Yang Yun said. “This person’s young appearance seems to be hiding a mature heart.” At this moment, Grand Master Zhou Tong interjected. “What do you mean?” Zhang Hongjiang looked at Zhou Tong. “People say that crying children will have milk to eat. This subordinate feels that his purpose is not to pay taxes on how much grain. However, I don’t have a clear idea of what he’s thinking. ” Zhou Tong said. “Hehe, the target is people.” Zhang Hongjiang touched his chin and smiled. “People? How can it be a human?” Yang Yun asked in confusion. “Didn’t he keep repeating that he was short of people? We’ll give it to others, and if they can’t hand over the food, I’ll settle the score with them. ” Zhang Hongjiang said. “My Lord, it’s not easy for us to find the people. However, if you ask them to go to the island to explore, they won’t go. ” Yang Yun said. “You, don’t you have a large number of people locked up in your prison?” Zhang Hongjiang said. “They’re criminals, why would they want them? If he sent it to somi Island and it became chaotic, how terrible would that be? Moreover, we can’t afford to take responsibility for releasing the criminal. ” Yang Yun was shocked. “I didn’t call you a private criminal. In the past year, a large number of disaster victims have poured into Yanling, which has brought endless hidden dangers to the public security of this County. You see, people are killed every day, and many are injured, the prison is full of trouble. The Yamen had to pull out a lot of silver to feed these people every year. It was too wasteful. Therefore, he picked the thieves, picked fights, and disrupted the local order. The victims who were supposed to be released after being locked up for more than ten days could be sent to somi Island. Also, if he needs more people in the future, you can choose from the victims. He would just capture the disobedient disaster victims and find a reason to send them over. First, it’s beneficial to the public security of Yanling city. Second, it’ll solve his urgent need. “Thirdly, we can increase taxes after we give it to others. If he can ‘t, I’ll have a reason to punish him. ” Zhang Hongjiang said. “That’s a good idea,” Yang Yun said with a smile. “What about Kang Qingfeng from six Fan School? That guy isn’t easy to talk to. ” Zhou Tong said. “In a few days. This time, I used an eight – hundred – mile express delivery. His title of count should be approved very soon. Bring this matter up after the promotion. At that time, I’ll have a reason to be reasonable. Also, find out why Qingfeng caught Qiao Xiao. ” Zhang Hongjiang said. “Understood.” Yang Yun nodded. “This is a coincidence, old master. Look, how did a simple fight between Qiao Xiao and the six Fan School get involved?” GE Zi Yun said after they returned to their room. “You’re saying that someone is plotting against him?” Tang Wen asked. “Master, didn’t you say it before? Maybe it has something to do with thousand leaves workshop lowering the price. ” GE Zi Yun said. “They want to ruin our deal with qianye workshop and buy it at a low price.” Bu Feng said. “They’ll lose interest if we buy qianye workshop as fast as lightning. At that time, they probably won’t keep an eye on Qiao Xiao. ” Tang Wen said. “Of course, but we don’t have that much silver.” GE Zi Yun said. “We have other things if we don’t have silver. There’s no hurry. Let’s go and see li Dawang, the owner of qianye workshop, tomorrow morning.” Tang Wen shook his head. The next day, at 9 am, Tang Wen brought GE Ziyun and the others to the river gazing restaurant. This was the place where li Dawang had arranged to meet. Li Dawang was really prosperous. He had a big belly and a typical fat head and big ears. Although he was wearing a high – end silk robe, it looked vulgar. That guy was also a smokiner. As soon as he sat down at the table, he bit on his golden smoke rod and began to breathe in and out clouds of mist. Of course, Chu State only had local tobacco, the kind of tobacco leaves that could choke you to death. However, li Dawang was quite high – Profile. He didn’t care about anyone else and had an arrogant look on his face. He didn’t put Tang Wen in his eyes at all. Tang Wen didn’t pay attention to him after he sat down. He took out a pack of Phoenix brand cigarettes, pressed his hand on the box, and popped one out. The Empress took out a gold – plated wind – proof lighter and lit the cigarette with a click. Li Dawang was stunned and looked at Tang Wen in a daze. “Brother, what’s that?” Li Dawang couldn’t help but raise his hand and point at Tang Wen’s cigarette and lighter. His finger was almost poking the end of the cigarette. “Impudent!” Bu Feng’s face suddenly turned serious as he lectured. “Brat, you shouted at its mother, are you looking for death?” Li Dawang slammed the table, pointed at bu Feng, and scolded. “This is our Lord Tang! He just left the prefectural governor’s mansion yesterday, and his title of Earl is about to be approved?” GE Ziyun, who was standing behind him, said in a neutral tone. “Count? Aren’t you a Baron? How did you become an Earl all of a sudden?” Li Dawang was stunned and didn’t believe it. “You think I’m lying to you, right? Come, li Dawang, send someone to the Yamen and ask Constable Yang Yun. ” Tang Wen smacked the table angrily. “Li Dawang greets the Earl.” When li Dawang heard this, his imposing manner immediately weakened. He quickly stood up and cupped his hands. “Our boss is still a Minister, so please forgive him for not kneeling.” A middle – aged man who looked like a Grand Master standing behind li Dawang explained in a slightly smug way. It was impossible for the common people of the great Chu State to obtain an official position through wealth. The status of scholars was unparalleled. If they could buy officials at will, it would be equivalent to tarnishing this official position. Later on, some rich people also wanted to have power, so they donated money to buy an official position. However, the official had to pass the imperial examination, and they could not participate. Therefore, the court of great Chu created an ‘official’ position. After all, the Minister had no real power, so why not take some silver from the court? Although the state officials did not have the right to govern, they could use their status to manage the villages. They would be appointed as the commanders of the grain and the ligies, and they would control and restrict the people through the grain. Moreover, with this identity, he was like a scholar, he could see an official without kneeling. This was also a symbol of status, and many rich people were talking about it with relish. However, Tang Wen was an Earl and a noble of Chu State. Although he was also an idle noble in name only, his status was far higher than li Dawang ‘s. “You want to try it?” Tang Wen asked. “Think about it.” Li Dawang looked at the smoking Phoenix cigarette and smelled the fragrance. He almost drooled. “Come on, try one.” Tang Wen flicked one to him. “You ...” Li Dawang put the lighter in his mouth and then stared at Tang Wen’s lighter. “Use it like this ...” Tang Wen handed it over. Li Dawang tried it, but with a crack, he didn’t see any fire. However, when he touched the cigarette, he actually lit it. Instantly, he was so shocked that his hand trembled, and the lighter fell to the ground with a crisp sound. “This western stuff is very expensive, Minister li.” Tang Wen put on a straight face and pretended to be angry. “I ... I’ll pay, I’ll pay.” Li Dawang quickly smiled and picked up the lighter. “Forget it, it’s not broken, there’s no need to compensate.” Tang Wen waved his hand, took the lighter, and put it in his pocket. Li Dawang kept staring at Tang Wen’s pocket. Because this lighter and this cigarette, it was too high – Class to show off in the other world. “How is it? does it smell good?” Tang Wen asked again. “Fragrant, it’s too fragrant.” Li Dawang nodded and said. “Comfortable?” Tang Wen asked again. “It’s comfortable, too comfortable,” Li Dawang nodded again.freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺
