Chapter 709 The Second Mermaid Tribe

March 12th.

The military and imperial examinations were in full swing.

The former came to the final fighting event to compete for the ranking of the Twenty-Eight Constellations, while the latter was taking a short break after the second examination.

The capital city was almost immersed in a sea of ​​enthusiasm. One could often hear that someone went to Wanhua Tower, left a good poem or lyrics, and stayed overnight without spending a penny, which attracted people to sing the song.

But these have nothing to do with Liang Qu.

The snowman in the yard was half black and half yellow. Behind two rows of snow trenches, the otter threw a snowball with all his might, which fell on the wall, leaving a small white dot.

There were many women bustling around the house, with all kinds of fragrances mixed together, and all kinds of discussions about needs and necessities. The servants sent by the Xu family were busy all the time.

"Bring it all, bring it all. The mutton from Sunite is delicious, not smelly at all. Hey, it's been two years since Fang Su last had it..."

"Sister, didn't Wenbin come back last year? You asked him to take care of you."

"Oh, I'm so confused." The woman slapped her head and turned to look at Liang Qu, "A Shui, please don't get confused."

"Don't worry, aunt! They won't be mixed up, they are all separated! I make sure they can be delivered to you." Liang Qu patted his chest on the bow of the boat and made the promise. He then directed the servants of the Xu residence to send the slaughtered fat sheep to the ice cellar for freezing.

"Hey, Sister Liu, so what if we got mixed up? We grew up together, so shouldn't we be exactly the same? So what if I eat two bites of your food?"

“Eat them all!”

"I always feel like something is missing..."

"Pingyang Prefecture has the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce. If you ask me, just give money. Money is the most useful thing!"

I learned that Liang Qu would leave in two days.

The mothers of colleagues such as Ran Zhongshi, Ke Wenbin, and Xiang Fangsu came to ask Liang Qu to bring things for their children, including letters, food, daily necessities, and spiritual supplies. There were even some envelopes that were bulging and soft to the touch.

Liang Qu suspected that there were large-denomination silver bills inside.

The large-denomination silver bills are very thick and resilient, and feel like cotton.

Unfortunately, it’s not for myself.

After arriving in the capital, Liang Qu visited every household, starting with the Xu family.

Now that I have to leave, of course I have to ask someone to take my belongings with me.

There was no one here who was short of money and no one could not afford the post station fees, but this matter was different after all.

Even though the post station is safe, in my heart, acquaintances are ten thousand times more reliable than strangers.

"so good."

Xu Zishuai leaned against the edge of the boat and said something without any context.

The women were discussing enthusiastically, "checking for omissions and filling in the gaps", when suddenly a head popped out from behind the screen wall, with long black hair hanging down.

The big eyes were bright and full of light, as if they contained many words.

Even though Liang Qu couldn't see the lower half of her face, he could still tell that she was a stunning beauty.

Without waiting to ask who he was looking for, a sharp-eyed woman in the room started joking.

"Hey, isn't this Xiao Ran? Are you here to give something to your lover?"

As soon as these words came out.

All the women turned their eyes and made teasing remarks.

The woman behind the screen wall blushed visibly and shrank her head back. After some pulling and tugging, a half-grown maid holding the box pushed her out, and the woman ran out by herself.

The maid was also very embarrassed. She ran over with a blushing face and held up the wooden box: "Excuse me, Master Liang, the things in the box are brought by my young lady to Master Ke. I wonder if you can take them with you on the way to Pingyang Mansion?"

"Ke Wenbin?"

"Yes, Master Wenbin."

Liang Qu suddenly realized and guessed the woman's identity.

Su Xiaoran.

Ke Wenbin's fiancée.

I agreed immediately.

"Okay, put your young lady in a separate column!"

The maid was overjoyed: "Thank you, Master Liang!"

……

Late March.

Pingyang Prefecture.

The sea was surging and there were ships everywhere.

The construction of Jiangchuan County is in full swing. Compared with the initial concept, the entire "Chuan" island is now expanding to twice its size.

Quan Linghan flipped the golden seal in his hand.

It has been a while since he got the seal, but he still finds it hard to believe.

The mermaid county magistrate.

I?
The entire mermaid tribe consists of less than a thousand people.

There is no county in the world with such a sparse population, and even less a county with more water than land. Quan Linghan was really frightened by this special case.

Although Jiangchuan County has to pay mermaid taxes from now on, he just received a dividend of mermaid silk from the Xu family in Huangzhou yesterday.

According to the steward of the Xu family, Jiao Xiao is very popular in the imperial capital. Although the accounts have not been fully settled and it will take another two months, the trend is very good. Knowing that the construction of Jiangchuan County requires money, the Xu family paid out a batch of dividends from the warehouse in advance.

Astronomical numbers!

This part alone is equivalent to all the income that the Xu family had previously given according to the normal price of mermaid silk!
In other words.

Regardless of what happened next, this batch of mermaid silk has already been sold at twice the previous price!

The Tianbo Chamber of Commerce accepted all the money and exchanged it for various supplies to improve the lives of the mermaids.

Not to mention that Liang Qu gave up part of the dividends, allowing the mermaids to earn more. The extra money alone was more than enough to pay taxes.

In just a few months, the entire new mermaid tribe has built a lot of houses, and the quality of life has been greatly improved. They have not been harassed at all during this period, compared to their past life of wandering in the swamps and setting up tents every day.

It's like an eternity.

Quan Linghan rubbed the gold seal again and again.

He was not well-educated, but he knew that the court would not joke about his reputation.

Changing orders every day is a serious offense to the world.

Today, I can give him a county magistrate, bribe him to harm the Great Lake Mermaid. Tomorrow, I can give him a kingship, bribe him to harm the Earth-Splitting Martial Saint.

The value of the minced meat of a thousand mermaids is not even one ten-thousandth of the loss.

Liang Qu must have put a lot of effort into this.

It has been half a year since October...

Think about it.

"Someone, go get Yuxuan and Guangqin!"

a long time.

Quan Guangqin and Quan Yuxuan were ordered to enter the house.

"Clan leader, no, county magistrate, I wonder why the county magistrate is looking for us two?" Quan Guangqin smiled.

Quan Linghan ignored him and went straight to the point: "There is still a tribe of mermen in Pengze, mostly made up of people with the surname Leng. The number of people is slightly larger than ours, with more than 1,500 people."

This statement came out.

Quan Guangqin and Quan Yuxuan were both stunned.

This……

There is another tribe of mermen in Pengze! ?
Speak now.

"Does the clan leader know where they are?"

"Ah."

"Hiss!" Quan Yuxuan took a sip of cold water, "Chief, why didn't we know about this before?"

After living in Pengzeli for so many years, the two never knew that their tribe was actually connected with other mermaid tribes!
Moreover, Quan Linghan suddenly said this, it definitely means he didn’t just know about it!

"What's the point of you knowing this? If Lord Liang had come with bad intentions, would you have kept your mouth shut under coercion and inducement?"

Quan Guangqin clasped his fists and said, "The clan leader really underestimates us."

"Ah……"

Quan Linghan did not comment and turned around to open the door.

The blue waves are wandering, the shadows of boats are scattered, and mermaids are competing to swim and play, creating a prosperous and free scene.

"You can keep the news, what about the other tribesmen?"

Algae fluttering.

Quan Guangqin and Quan Yuxuan remained silent.

Judging from the audience of the novel, there are indeed many young mermaids who are unwise and ignorant. We can only say that fortunately Lord Liang has no bad intentions, and what he seeks and gets does not conflict with what the mermaids want.

Quan Linghan looked up and sighed.

"Be more careful and make fewer mistakes. Only the elders and I know this clearly. We rarely contact each other on weekdays. This is so that if an accident happens in Pengze, it will not affect other tribes and cause the demise of the Pengze mermaids."

"The clan leader's intention..."

Quan Linghan closed the door.

"I want to bring them here together. Since Lord Liang has given up his share of the profits, the mermaids should return the favor."
