I Am The Landlord In Another World

Chapter 68: The one asking for money (1)

“It’s fine,” Tang Wen waved his hand. “I’m just running errands for the government, how can I live as freely as you, little brother? Look, you have a few thousand men under you and have such a large family business. I heard that you were originally a third – Class Baron. After a few years of not seeing each other, he had been promoted to a first – Class Earl. It’s clear that you’ve made outstanding military achievements and are worthy of admiration. Could it be that you participated in the war of the Northwest?” Tie Wen Jing said. “I’m too embarrassed to say this. In fact, where did the military merits come from? it’s just a donation of some provisions, fodder, and horses for the Imperial court. Lord Zhang of Yanling said that all these can be counted as military merits. ” Tang Wen shook his head. “I heard you donated quite a bit.” The teeman mirror said. “Hehe.” Tang Wen chuckled, feeling that the teewen mirror had come at a good time. “Junior Brother, this is where you’re wrong.” The teeman mirror said. “Oh? Did I do something wrong? Is it also a crime to donate silver to the Imperial court to resist the invasion?” Tang Wen pretended to be surprised as he looked at the metal mirror. “That’s right. ” Tie Wen Jing touched his chin and said,”however, Junior Brother, you don’t know. Your sumi Island is also the territory of Jiang state capital. ” “SuMei Island is the territory of Jiang state capital? Where did this come from? Isn’t it under the jurisdiction of Yanling County?” Tang Wen was stunned and asked. “Hahaha, Junior Brother, you’re not in the wrong.” The teeman mirror laughed. “You’re making me confused. ” Tang Wen was really puzzled. “Private advisor Qin, bring me the map.” Tie Wenjing said. A middle – aged man dressed as a private advisor standing beside him nodded and handed over a map. Tie Wen Jing spread out the map and pointed at SuMei Island,”Junior Brother, look. SuMei Island is located to the East of xiting town, which belongs to Jiang state capital. They came along xiting town and arrived at SuMei Island. Therefore, half of SuMei Island belonged to Jiang state capital and the other belonged to Yanling County. You see, there’s an obvious mark on this map, I’m not talking nonsense. ” “So that’s how it is. Junior martial brother, I really didn’t know. However, Soma Island was bought by my ancestor, so it’s my private territory. ” Tang Wen said. “Of course it’s the private property of the Tang family. However, it’s under the jurisdiction of Jiang Zhou and Yanling.” The teeman mirror said. “That’s true. Now it seems that senior brother is also my parent official. ” Tang Wen said. “I wouldn’t dare to do that. You are a third – rank Earl and a noble of Chu State. However, Junior Brother, you can’t favor one over the other. ” Tie Wen Jing said. “Favoritism, where does this come from?” Tang Wen was a little silly. “Junior Brother, think about it carefully.” The teeman mirror said. “This ... I’m slow – witted and can’t think of anything that I’ve done wrong to Jiang state capital.” Tang Wen said after thinking for a while. “Hehe, you donated 170000 taels of silver in Yanling and obtained military merits. You are now a third – Class Earl. However, this sumi Island also belongs to Jiang state capital, and Lord Jue did not seem to have expressed anything to the Jiang state capital. ” Private advisor Qin laughed dryly. “Private advisor Qin, you can’t say that. My Junior Brother didn’t know. If he had known that half of SuMei Island belonged to Jiang state capital, he would not have been stingy with the money. We’re all fighting for the Imperial court against the invasion of foreign enemies, Junior Brother is not a person who favors one over the other. ” The teeman mirror said. The two of them were obviously here to ask for money. Tang Wen finally understood. “Hehe, back then, the Pirates burned, killed, pillaged, and destroyed the Tang family’s home on SuMei Island. I wonder where Jiang state capital is?” Tang Wen asked with a smile. “Hehe, Junior Brother, that was decades ago. The master Fu Yi of the past is no longer here, so why does Shidi need to bring up this matter of old sesame and rotten grain?” Tie Wen Jing laughed drily. “Yes, we should focus on the present.” Private advisor Qin nodded and said. “The present. Alright, let’s talk about the present. It seems that I’ve been in Soma Island for more than half a year, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone from Jiang state capital. In addition, my Tang family was attacked by Pirates twice when we moved back. It’s a good thing that my Tang family was well prepared. Otherwise, everyone in the Tang family would have died long ago. When the Pirates attacked my Tang family, where were the Jiang state capital’s Navy?” Tang Wen asked. “You can’t say that. Junior Brother Tang, didn’t master Fu Yi hear that there were Pirates attacking the people of SuMei Island? didn’t he send us here to investigate?” Tie Wen Jing said. “That’s right. We’re now seeing that SuMei Island, under the leadership of the Tang family, is vigorously developing irrigation, building dams, and official roads. He reckoned that they would be vigorously opening up wastelands and planting crops. When he returned this time, master Fuyi would definitely be very happy. If you need any help, feel free to ask, and Master Fu Yi will think of a way for you. ” Private advisor Qin said. “Alright, I’ll make a small request. “Tang Wen nodded. “Junior Brother Tang is a meritorious official of the Imperial court, and he is donating money and food to resist the invasion of foreign enemies. Please tell us, if it is within the means of Lord Fu Yi, we will definitely do it!” Tie Wen Jing said with a determined expression. “My personal guard, Qiao Xiao, was arrested by Kang Qingfeng, the branch leader of six Fan school’s Yanling branch, for a groundless crime, just because he fought with one or two idlers from Yanling County. According to our investigation, it was because Kang Qingfeng wanted to find the address of the branch office in Yanling County. He had his eyes on our Tang family’s qianye workshop. You asked my Tang family to donate 100 mu of land as a branch of the Yamen, and I, Tang Wen, also agreed. Yet, Qingfeng Kang only reported the price of the mountains. A few taels of silver per mu in the mountains, but the thousand leaves workshop was located in the bustling area of Yanling County. How could the price be the same? Qiao Xiao had been locked up in the Yanling County Prison for a few months and was tortured by branch leader Kang every day. He’s very loyal to me, Tang Wen. If Qiao Xiao doesn’t come out, I don’t even have anyone to protect me. How would I have the mood to farm or pay taxes for the court?” Tang Wen said. “Six Fan School ...” Tie Wen Jing was stunned. He frowned and asked,”hehe, didn’t this happen in Yanling County?” Lord Zhang is the official of Yanling County. We, the Jiang state capital, can not interfere rashly. Otherwise, you’ll be hated by others. ” “But Qiao Xiao is a member of my SuMei island’s Tang family. Does half of SuMei Island belong to Jiang state capital? Qiao Xiao is also a citizen of Jiang state capital, so of course, Jiang state capital has the right to ask about him. ” Tang Wen said. “You’ve definitely looked for Lord Zhang regarding this matter?” Master Qin said. “Even if we did, Lord Zhang wouldn’t be able to do it.” Tang Wen said. “Hehe, if Lord Zhang can’t do it, then this matter is extremely difficult to handle. However, if you show us your attitude, we will report this matter to Master Fu Yi. ” The teeman mirror said. “Right! You have donated 170000 taels of silver in Yanling. If you donate it to Jiang state capital again and make another contribution, Fu Yi will help you gain fame and reputation. At that time, you can be promoted to a second – Class Earl. ” Private advisor Qin said. “Second uncle, I heard that he’s going to donate three hundred thousand taels.” Tang Wen sneered. “If you donate, Lord Fuyi will appeal this matter to the provincial six fan Hall on your behalf.” Master Qin said. “Are you sure?” Tang Wen asked. “I will do my best to explain this matter to Master Fu Yi.” Tie Wen Jing said. “Alright then. When Qiao Xiao is released, I will donate it to Jiang state capital.” Tang Wen nodded. “These are two different matters. You are making things difficult for Jiang state capital.” Private advisor Qin’s expression changed immediately and he looked at Tang Wen coldly. “Private advisor Qin, it’s three hundred thousand taels, not three thousand. That’s more than half of the Tang family’s assets. Once it’s donated, the thousands of people in my Tang family will have to live frugally. Otherwise, we won’t even be able to pass the new year. ” Tang Wen said. “Write an application form and I’ll hand it to Lord Fu Yi on your behalf. However, I hope junior martial brother tang can keep his word. ” Tie Wen Jing said. “I’ve written it long ago. Yi Wu, go and ask GE Zi Yun to bring it over. ” Tang Wen said. Luo Yiwu nodded, and not long after, he brought over the accusation paper. After looking at the stele – text mirror, he put it away and stood up. “Since the two of you are already here, please leave after eating.” Tang Wen said. “No, we have work to do. We have to go back immediately. However, junior martial brother Tang, Master Fu Yi is also doing this for the war in the Northwest. We’re all doing this for the court, so I hope you can understand. ” The teeman mirror said. “Of course, I understand. I, Tang Wen, am also a member of the Imperial court.” Tang Wen nodded and said,”however, the two of you have come from afar. Senior brother tie is still my senior brother. I can’t let the two of you return empty – handed. Since the two of you don’t want to eat, then come with me. ” Tie Wen Jing glanced at private advisor Qin and followed Tang Wen out. “Senior brother tie, what do you think of this tent?” Tang Wen pointed to the tents on the lakeside Road and asked. “It seems to be different from the ones used in our Army.” The telescope took a glance. “Let’s go in and take a look. ” Tang Wen said with a smile and led them into the tent.
