The tea in the tea shop is extremely bad.

It was purely some aged tea foam. When boiling water was rinsed, the powder was churning up and down. Liu Ruyan frowned. The countless small black dots inside had been settled for a while. How could she dare to take a sip? Even a poor family like Chen Wenliang frowned. Seeing Li Ze drinking the tea bowl with a big mouthful of tea, he picked it up and took a sip like medicine.

bitter!

astringent!

It also has an indescribable smell.

The only benefit is that in this cold day, the hot tea soup immediately rises in the cold stomach.

However, there are very few people like Li Ze and others who sit in tea shops to drink tea. Most of them stand outside the shop. When they shout, the shopkeeper pours a bowl of hot tea, and the person who comes to blow a few sips, then drink it all, put the tea bowl on the large chopping board next to the door, and then hurried away.

Li Ze looked outside, but his ears stood up. He was listening to the two constables in the tea shop.

When looking at clothing, you should still be the headmaster.

These people are the most closest to the people, and are also the group of people Li Ze is most worried about. They are responsible for the public security of the entire Chang'an and maintain the most basic order, but in many cases, they are also the group of people who hate the most.

If they want to form habits and rules in the north, they are afraid that they will not be able to do it in a short period of time.

Sometimes, some policies that the court took great pains to benefit the people may change when they reach their level and become tools for them to make money and harm others.

Although they are young, they are a group of people who truly hold real power.

Their image, to a large extent, represents the image of the court and influences the people's views on the court.

"Last night was so scary." Xu Xuan was still in shock: "It's just that I thought it was an ordinary person who violated the curfew. I just told him a few lessons and took him back to the market where he lived. I didn't know that this person was actually carrying a crossbow. If I hadn't been my life, I would have been reimbursed yesterday. Thank you brother He. The remaining bastards ran away, and only you rushed up."

He Cang smiled and said, "Which guy can only fire one crossbow at a time? I'm used to hearing this sound when I was in the army. If he had the chance to turn the string again, it would be my turn next. How could he give him such a chance? But Brother Xu, you are really lucky, and at the close distance, you only have a little scratch?"

"I guess that guy is panicked, right?" Xu Cang touched his scalp, and wearing a hat, he couldn't see clearly what was on his head, but it was obvious that the arrow was heading.

"This is called "living a disaster, there will be blessings in the future." That guy was actually a spy from the south. We caught him, which was considered a great contribution. The county magistrate said that we would remember that if we remember three times, we could raise the salary of a level."

"Accident, unexpected!" Xu Xuan said with a smile.

Chen Wenliang also heard the conversation between the two. When he heard the spy detective in the south, his hair all over his body immediately stood up. Has the Chang'an city been cleaned yet? Now Li Xiang is in a very intimate manner.

His eyes swept across Li Peng and others outside, looked at Liu Ruyan next to Li Xiang, and felt a little relieved.

He didn't know how powerful Li Xiang was, and he had never seen Li Xiang fight, but General Liu Ruyan Liu was famous. An ordinary little thief hit her, but it was probably an egg hitting a stone.

"Let's go, the land sold in Shouchun has begun to climb to the top today. We have to grab it first." He Cang said: "We have just made contributions, and I think the county magistrate will definitely give you some face."

"Let's go!" Xu Xuan also stood up, "Shopkeeper, check out."

The shopkeeper ran over quickly and bent over and said, "How dare you ask for the money of the two officials for the money? I'm the young, I'll invite it."

Xu Xuan refused to accept it, took four cents to put it on the table, and said, "Although it was only two bowls of tea, it cannot break the rules. Now it is not the past. If you, the old boy, sued me for a slander, my job will not be saved. Take it and take it. In the future, any servants under my Chang'an County, who are under your rank, will be with you and don't pay for food and drink, please come to me."

Seeing Xu Xuan and He Cang leave with great strides, the shopkeeper was stunned for a long time, and then he put away the four-civilized copper coins. There seemed to be a look of disbelief in his eyes.

Li Ze waved his hand and the shopkeeper walked over. "Does this gentleman want to mix water?" Looking at the big teapot he was carrying, Li Ze smiled and said, "Get a clean bowl and only pour boiling water, don't have tea!"

The shopkeeper glanced at the tea soup that had not moved in front of Liu Ruyan, then looked at the dress of several people. He nodded repeatedly with enlightenment, but he quickly brought a clean tea bowl and poured hot boiling water into it.

"Is there no snack or anything in the tea shop?" Li Ze asked.

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. I can't even eat enough now, so there is still some snacks there? The old man still makes some tea powder at home that has been old for a few years. There is no way to make some money. Fortunately, everyone understands it."

Li Ze nodded: "Looking at the appearance of this tea shop, it turns out that the scale should be quite large!"

"Yes, the old man's tea shop was still a bit famous in the past. Not only was the house full of seats, but the streets were also filled with tables and stools, and there were singing and storytelling in the house. All kinds of snacks were complete!" The shopkeeper straightened up and looked at the empty shop with his eyes full of memories.

"When did the old man hire seven or eight guys!"

Another middle class who went bankrupt due to war.

Li Ze said in his heart.

"God rewards hard work. Now the Tang Dynasty court has fought back, and the future will be better and better." Li Ze took a sip of tea, chewed the tea foam that came to his mouth as the tea reached.

"Yes, yes!" The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly: "It will definitely get better. You see, even the officers are not as fierce as before. In the past, we had to pay them money every month! As for coming to drink tea and snacks, when did they pay? It's a big change now, I hope it's all the time."

"Of course, it will definitely be like this all the time." Li Ze smiled and said, "If someone asks you for money again, you can go to the county government to sue them."

"I dare not go!" The shopkeeper waved his hands repeatedly: "Spend money to eliminate disasters. Where can I get in the yamen? If you don't make you so hard, how can you let you out?"

Li Ze couldn't help but feel silent.

Seeing Li Ze's expression becoming gloomy, the shopkeeper also became nervous and rubbed his hands uneasy.

Li Ze shook his head, and saw that Liu Ruyan had finished drinking the hot water in the bowl, so he stood up. Chen Wenliang took out a stack of copper coins from his arms and placed them on the table.

The three of them walked out of the tea shop.

"There is a long way to go!" Li Ze looked at Chen Wenliang and said.

"It just takes time to let the people know slowly." Chen Wenliang smiled and said, "Just looking at the performance of these two constables today, Feng Ying still does a good job."

In the north, the clan power has been completely disintegrated. With Li Ze's efforts for more than ten years, ordinary people have already trusted the government very much. If there are any problems, contradictions, or disputes, they no longer try to resolve them themselves. Instead, they think of the government at the first time. It is already a very common thing to sue in the north.

There are too many lawsuits, and the power of judgment was separated from the chief officer and a special judicial organ was established. The judges were directly sent to various places from the Ministry of Justice at one level. Due to the strategy of serving in other places, these judges who were proficient in the law had no interest in the local area and were basically fair and upright, thus gaining a higher reputation for the government.

But in Chang'an, it is obviously not a short time to do this.

Even if Li Ze can immediately copy all the policies, institutions and experiences of the North, the most important question is how to win the trust of the people.

And this is also the reason why Li Ze said that he has a long way to go.

Chang'an is still like this, so it is even more difficult to walk south.

You should know that Chang'an has experienced several wars and dynasties, and the old forces have suffered great blows, but in the south, clan forces still rule the place.

Cheers suddenly came from the street. Li Ze and others looked around, but saw that the streets saw carriages coming over. On the carriages, the high-volume grain bags were extremely eye-catching.

The pedestrians on the street consciously avoided both sides, looking at the team of carriages that could not see where the tail was. All the carriages were loaded with the same high grain bags.

A large amount of grain entering Beijing means that grain prices will fall further, which also gave the uneasy Chang'an people a reassurance.

I have food in my hands, so I feel unhappy.

"Mr. Wang's move is still very effective." Chen Wenliang smiled and said, "Transporting grain into Chang'an in this way can indeed calm people's hearts."

"This is just the first step. Next, the supply and marketing cooperative will find a way to transport other materials into Chang'an." Li Ze said: "I don't want to take out some aged tea powder next time when I come out, I can only take out some aged tea powder to do business."

"It's already arranged." Chen Wenliang said: "Mr. Wang has made a detailed plan. After ensuring the most basic food guarantee, we must pay attention to the diversification of materials."

The Minister of the King of Wang in Chen Wenliang's mouth is naturally Wang Mingyi. He is now the Left Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and is the most popular candidate for the next Minister of Revenue.
