As a sweetheart in the palm of your hand

Chapter 159

Qin Sihan, who heard what Bai Xi said clearly, gave him a sideways glance, patted his hand and said, "You have been with me for decades, and you know my temper. Let go."

He said it almost heartlessly.

Bai Xi let go of his hand in an instant, and just hung on the side of the bed without taking it back, his eyes were full of despair and extravagant hope.

Seeing it, Tan Sihan felt a little helpless, and walked out.

The people in the room didn't change at all, they watched Tan Sihan go out the door without making any noise.

Qin Sihan closed the door.After walking a few steps, Mu Qing came over and cupped his hands to Tan Sihan: "Master, this is Brother Bo's household registration. The Ministry of Punishment just sent it over, and Master Wang is also here."

"How many people are coming back?" Tan Sihan took it and asked.

Mu Qing realized what Qin Sihan asked, and hurriedly said: "Seven, plus the original three, a total of ten."

Qin Sihan ordered: "Well, find someone who is solid and powerful, and go and watch your Brother Bo. Don't let him go out and walk around recently, do you hear me?"

"Yes." Mu Qing agreed and retreated.

Tan Sihan went back to his side, Zhou She also came over, just followed behind him without saying anything.

ring down.

The two entered the lobby one after the other.

I saw a group of people sitting together, not knowing what to say.

He didn't speak, just sat down in silence.

"Since that's the case, how about we divide into two groups, one group to block the officials and one group to go to the fields?" Ji Xuan looked around and said.

Several people nodded.

Wang Qi and Zhang Xuan brought back some news about the long-term workers and those officials.

In the morning, some people also went to the place where Er Xu lived, but the door of that place was wide open, and the inside was in a mess, so the yamen servants rushed to nothing.

"My lord, I have something to trouble you with." Seeing that everyone had no objection, Ji Xuan turned to look at Tan Sihan.

The latter was going to take a nap on the stool, but he yawned when he heard this, and straightened up to look at Ji Xuan.

"The matter of Xu Kun and Xu Wei." Ji Xuan said.

Tan Sihan turned to look at Zhou She who was following behind her.

Zhou She nodded and retreated, and came back after a while and said, "Master, I've sent someone to invite me, and I'll be there in the evening."

Ji Xuan was taken aback,
"I ordered someone to go down and find someone. Didn't Mr. Ji see it? The three caves of the cunning rabbit, they must eat and drink." Tan Sihan said.

Ji Xuan smiled, "With the young master around, I really can be a waste."

What he said was really very humble.

"Master Ji, there is no waste in the Daman court." Tan Sihan reminded.

Ji Xuan nodded and smiled awkwardly.

"I will lead a group, and Fang Wu will lead a group. I will block people. Let's see who goes to the field."

He turned his head again, seeing Wang Qi didn't hear anything, so he had to say a few words to Fang Wu, and then looked at everyone.

"Master Ji, I'll follow you." Wang Qi said.

"Me, I'll be with my junior sister." Bai An also said. "I'll go to the field too." Zhang Xuan also said, there must be someone on both sides who can do the job, right?It's not that Fang Wu can't, it's that Fang Wu is a woman, and it's always easy for people to see clearly.

"Where is Mr. Tan?"

Seeing that several people have expressed their opinions one after another, and Tan Sihan has been silent all this time, he turned his head and asked.

"I'll be with you, and my people will make an equal share, and each of you, master and apprentice, will take half of it."

Qin Sihan said.

"Let Muqing choose people to follow Zhang Xuan, and you lead the rest to follow me. Be smart and keep in touch with each other. Also, let Eunuch Bai follow me." After speaking, Tan Sihan turned back to order Zhou She.

Zhou She agreed and went out, and Mu Qing who was on the beam also jumped down and followed Zhou She.

After that, several people discussed the details while waiting for the arrival of Xu Kun and Xu Wei.

The autumn wind is rustling, and the night always comes so fast.

Everyone looked up when they heard footsteps.I saw two people, one tall and one short, being brought in by the crowd.

Finally followed Zhou She and Mu Qing,
One tall and one short are naturally Xu Kun and Xu Wei, and the rest are under Qin Sihan's subordinates.

Except for the latter two, they were all hidden in the corners, and the room was quiet, but the atmosphere inside was subconsciously tense.

"Cough, cough, cough. Mr. Ji can ask whatever you want." Qin Sihan coughed twice to break the heavy atmosphere.

"You are Xu Kun?" Ji Xuan looked at the short man's opening.

Xu Kun nodded.

Ji Xuan asked him first because he saw that Xu Kun had no official status.After all, Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Industry, is also a third grade, so he really didn't dare to interrogate rashly.

"I've seen a lot of land under your hands, how much grain can it produce every year?" Ji Xuan asked.

He wanted to know how much Ren Ye earned every year, and whether Ren Ye and Xu Kun had been friends over the years.

"I don't know in previous years, but this year there are only four thousand stones." Xu Kun said.

Ji Xuan nodded, there was nothing wrong with his words.

The weather this year is not good, and the price of seeds has been increased, including the high tax in Yancheng Town, so four thousand shi is not too much, but it is not a lot.

You know, this year, Yancheng Town has produced less than [-] shi of grain, and after taxation, there are only [-] shi left.

It is definitely impossible to divide as in previous years.So how can we avoid conflicts.

Ji Xuan asked: "These lands are under your control, how often do you check them out?"

Xu Kun was stunned for a moment and said, "Basically, I don't ask too much. I don't understand this, so I just look at the ledger."

"Talk to me, don't try to prevaricate." Tan Sisi slapped the table and said aggressively.

It's not that there is something wrong with these words, but that there is something wrong with this person.

No matter how you look at it, this person looks like a shrewd person.It's not someone who can be coaxed away, and Tan Sihan has investigated, this person has nothing to do with him,

That is to say, he is taking care of everything up and down, so how can he not know anything.

Xu Kun trembled, and secretly glanced at Tan Sihan,

"I...I won't go to the field." Xu Kun stammered and said again.

Tan Sihan didn't know the truth of these words, she just looked at Ji Xuan.

He is naturally not as good as Ji Xuan in interrogating such jobs.

Ji Xuan didn't say anything.

Fang Wu smiled and said, "Does Mr. Xu know Mr. Xu?"

"I don't know." Xu Kun looked back at Xu Wei and said.

Bai An stepped forward and asked: "Mr. Xu, he is the person in charge of everything in Yancheng Town. You have been here for many years. Do you know each other?" He asked, walking up step by step.

He was not walking fast, the flesh on his face was trembling, and his eyes were full of suspicion.

The few people watching were a little dazed.

They didn't expect that Bai An would sometimes pretend to be a master.

In fact, Bai An was vicious enough, he didn't need to pretend, just put on a show, that's all.

"Master Xu, do you know him?" Bai An looked at Xu Wei and asked, regardless of Xu Kun's reaction.

He is a rough man, and he doesn't care about his dignity, and Bai An is the person in charge of this matter.

Asking the answer, naturally there is no superiority or inferiority.

Just cooperate with each other
