Chapter 2069: Losing Face

Now at this time of year, the rich families dont have enough food left in their homes. I heard that there are noodles to be received. The doors of every house in the streets and alleys are opened. They run out and ask the government officials: "Master, go to the official fields outside the city to worship. Can you really get the noodles?" ? Is it white flour pancake or multigrain pancake? It cant be sorghum flour pancake, right?!

It would be a loss if they bought sorghum cakes. It was not worth the trip outside the city. They still had to work to support their families.

Someone also shrewdly asked: "Master, what are the requirements for the Ding members who are going to worship? Can my Xiaoba go?"

After hearing this, the Yamen servant pouted at him and said, "You can tell me that your little boy is only a little over four years old. You just let him go to the official field outside the city to worship. There is no way to take advantage of him."

The yamen servant pointed at the street residents who came out to ask with the hand holding the hammer: "The worship is a big deal, so naturally a grown man must go. If the family dies and only a little kid with a handle is left, let him go." The widowed mother, grandmother, or relatives should take them with them. Dont try to take advantage and save trouble by letting the young children run to the official fields outside the city by themselves... On the second day of February to worship, those who want to be plowed by oxen, in case the oxen are frightened. , what should I do if something happens to the child?"

He added: "The bread that was given out is white flour, and it weighs three to two taels. Mr. Qi will not fool you with multi-grain cakes. The worship has already started, so don't go too late!"

After saying that, he banged the gong again and shouted what Qi Yi told him.

After getting the word, the previous neighbors in the market also rushed to tell each other, knocking on the doors of relatives and acquaintances.

Bang, bang, bang!

"Uncle, Mr. Qi will give out white flour cakes after worshiping the God of Agriculture in Guantian in the suburbs. They are white flour cakes. Hurry up and take a boy to get them. Don't miss such a good thing in vain! I won't tell you anymore. I I have to make a trip to my brother-in-laws house, lest they dont hear the news and miss this white flour pancake!

This man is considered a lucky person in Long'an Mansion. Many of his relatives survived the war. Unexpectedly, in some families, only one or two members of his family died.

The people in other prefectures and cities also went to inform the few remaining relatives and friends like him.

The city of Long'an Prefecture has become lively since Mao Shi. By Chen Shi, the whole city has been mobilized, and the crowds are booming.

After such a big fight, Xu You's people in the city naturally noticed something strange and hurriedly sent people to investigate. However, the news they found out was: "Master Qi has collected money from the Meng family and is going to worship the God of Agriculture." When I was there, I helped the Meng family carry the porcelain so that the porcelain could be sold well. The money for buying noodles was given by the Meng family."

And the news was true, the Meng family also targeted the day when the dragon raised its head on the second day of February and sent several boxes of silver to Qi Yi.

In the past, Qi Yi would not have accepted it, but after seeing the miserable situation in the northwest after the war, he accepted all the money, intending to use it to help the people, and would not keep it for himself.

As for the Meng family's request to carry the porcelain, he would also help.

The person who stayed behind in the city of Long'an Prefecture was none other than Mr. Ming.

He knew that the Meng family was sending money, firing porcelain, and planning to make a big appearance on February 2 so that they could sell the porcelain at a high price. Therefore, after hearing the report from his dead men, he felt relieved: "It's done, there's no big problem." , just take back 80% of the manpower and leave 20% to continue to watch."

"Yes." After hearing this, the dead men under his command immediately went to do it.

Dong dong dong!

Farming sacrifices are a big event, and the big drum is an important weapon, so the drum sound of the government office never stops.

As soon as Chen time arrived, the main entrance of the government office opened wide. In front was the statue of the God of Agriculture, which was made of grains and hay. The big drum carried by the government servants was behind. The officials of the government office led by Qi Yi followed the big drum out of the door.

Uncle He and Meng Hong changed their clothes and joined the accompanying team.

When people in the city saw Qi Yi, they hurriedly shouted: "Master Qi, is it true that the white flour pancake thing is true?" Someone with a child in his arms asked: "Master Qi, let my family write a letter later. Bao, please touch your head, let him enjoy your blessing, so that when he grows up, he can get a good name and become an official!"

Qi Yi is a prostitute. Wherever he goes, everyone who knows his identity wants their children to touch his head. At the most terrifying time, several handfuls of Qi Yi's hair were pulled out. He had to have more hair, otherwise he would Being bald.

The leader of the government office who opened the way rolled his eyes at the man who asked the question, and warned: "Today we are worshiping the God of Agriculture, don't worry about Mr. Qi's head anymore, just go aside. Anyone who dares to take the lead in touching the top of his head for blessing will be taken to the government office and imprisoned!" "

He also said: "Hurry up and give way. Don't block the road. Anyone who blocks the road and delays the worship time will also be arrested and imprisoned!"

But because of the white flour pancake collar, people were sent out from every household in the city. It took Qi Yi and the others half an hour to get out of the city gate and get on the carriage.

Fortunately, Guantian is right next to the city gate post station. It can be reached in two quarters of an hour by carriage. Otherwise, I am afraid that the worship will be delayed.

Dong dong dong!

Big drums were also set up around the official field, and there were nine strong oxen standing in the official field. On the flat ground beside the official field, an incense table had been set up. The yamen servants put the grains and grains on them, and then erected the hay statue of the God of Agriculture, waiting for the moment. When they arrive, they begin to worship.

When Xu Fang, Mr. Meng, and Manager Shen arrived with the porcelain, it was only three-quarters of an hour before the end of the day. They were the last ones to arrive at Guantian.

Master Ming was mixed in with the people who came to worship. When he saw Xu Fang, he frowned... Trash, pick it up. If you do things like this, sooner or later something will go wrong!

"Master Qi, please forgive me, I'm late." Xu Fang bowed to Qi Yi, apologized repeatedly, and said that it was not easy to make porcelain: "Fortunately, with God's blessing, this high-quality porcelain was finally fired."

After saying that, he asked the two masters of the Meng family to move the two boxes over.

Qi Yi originally didn't want to talk to him, but he was afraid that the porcelain from the two families would get mixed up, so he took the porcelain in person and opened it in public, letting the officials, aristocratic families from the capital, nobles, young men from high-ranking officials' families, and noble men from the city to open it. When he saw it, he even praised it personally: "This is porcelain jointly made by the Xu family, Shen Shizi family and the Meng family. It is white and bright in color. It is really a rare and high-quality porcelain. Take a look at it and see if you like it." You can go buy it from the Meng family."

Well, what I said made those young men from the capital feel contempt in their hearts... Qi Yi also started to tell lies. That's **** high-grade porcelain. There was a white porcelain bottle with a trace of yellow on the bottom. That's it. The texture is far from the best white porcelain.

However, everyone was an expert at telling lies, and no one tried to offend Xu You. Instead, they all praised: "It is as white as jade and as bright as grease. It is really a rare and high-quality porcelain."

After they had finished boasting, Qi Yi said: "The auspicious time is coming, and it is important to worship the God of Agriculture. Let's put away the Meng family's porcelain first, and then take it out to watch after the worship."

There was a perfect flatterer who said: "Yes, yes, this fine white porcelain needs to be put away first. It would be a pity if it gets damaged!"

Qi Yi was well-educated and did not roll his eyes when he heard this and asked the Meng family to collect two porcelains.

The Meng family has made a big splash, and Mr. Meng's face is all red and he is extremely excited.

However, the most fearful thing in the world is comparison shopping. The Meng family was only prosperous for a while, but by the time they finished worshiping the God of Agriculture, they were completely disgraced.
