Chapter 342 of Xun Tang's text: Today, Xia He's case was filled with mountain-like files. The branch office was newly established, and all departments were still exploring. She had to do many things by herself. This was also helpless because many of the work, and many people below did not have the ability to bear this alone.

He held a brush in one hand and flipped the file in the other hand, and smeared it from time to time, circled out the problems inside with a red pen. On some case files spread out on the other side, the red circles on them were shocking, and obviously there were many problems.

After reviewing it for a while, she sighed, and her steps were still too big. Before she was fully prepared, she pressed down on her mountain's burden, but she had to bear it. She never even screamed bitterly in front of Li Ze.

A female official in men's clothing walked in with a case file and placed it in front of her. She looked at the title on the case file. Xia He had to put down the half-revised case file and picked up the newly sent one.

This one is about the Shence Army. Nowadays, military affairs are generally given priority. However, because of its special status, the Shence Army must be handled with caution.

After looking through for a while, Xia He couldn't help but frown. He changed into a black brush and picked up the pen to prepare for writing opinions. The tip of the pen just touched the paper stamp, but it lifted up again and turned its head to think.

Xia He has a problem that she knows but cannot solve. Whenever she makes up her mind, she likes to bite the tip of the brush. This way, she naturally makes her mouth full of black juice. She can only discover it when she wakes up. But when she encounters this situation again, she will still bite it unconsciously.

When Li Ze pushed the door open, Xia He probably felt something was wrong in his mouth. He was sticking out his tongue and licking it on his lips. He took the black ink, but it got more on his lips. He heard the door ringing, and she thought someone had sent a file again, and said without raising her head: "Put it aside first, I'm going to see the owners of those money shops soon, and I'll review it when I come back."

Looking at Xia He who was like a cat, Li Ze smiled and said, "You are going to meet the owners of those money shops in this way, and you are not afraid of scaring them."

Xia He suddenly looked up and saw Li Ze standing in front of the door with his hands in his arms, looking at her with a smile.

Putting the hair on the pen holder, Xia He rushed forward and walked a few steps, as if he realized something. He reached out to touch his mouth and looked at it again. As expected, his hands were pitch black. He screamed and covered his mouth.

"The people outside don't know how to inform me?" She said in a daze. "I'm going to see my smile again. Now I'm so ugly?"

Li Ze smiled and shook his head: "No, no, no, the working woman is the most beautiful. Xia He, did you not sleep last night? Look at your two dark circles and blood in your eyes."

Looking at Xia He with fluffy hair and haggard face, Li Ze felt a little distressed, but Xia He had not returned home for more than a month.

Seeing the clean water and towel on the face wash stand by the window, I walked straight over, wet the towel, wringed it dry, walked back to Xia He and gently wiped the ink on her face for her.

"Thank you for your hard work, young master." Xia He whispered.

"What's the hard work to say? You've worked so hard. You've been home today. Even if there's a big deal, I'll leave it to tomorrow. After I get home, I'll cook myself and make some good dishes to reward you." Li Ze washed Wu Qima's black towel, wiped Xia He a few times, and said.

"Go home, you will definitely go home!" Xia He nodded repeatedly. "After meeting the bosses of those money shops, you will go home."

Li Ze nodded with satisfaction, patted Xia He and said, "Why don't you go and clean up again, you can't go to see the guests like this, right?"

"Young Master, wait for me for a moment." Xia He smiled, turned around, and ran towards the third floor with brisk steps.

It was said that it was a moment, but Xia He went there for almost a meal. However, Li Ze had been mentally prepared for women to dress up, so when Xia He went to the third floor, he sat in Xia He's position, picked up the cinnabar pen, and began to approve the files submitted below for Xia He.

Li Ze's hands and feet were faster than Xia He. After he finished reviewing the tenth volume, he finally heard the stairs ringing. With the ringing bells, Xia He walked down from the third floor with glory. Looking at Xia He who had changed into women's clothing, Li Ze couldn't help but feel a little dazed. The haggard Xia He just now was completely gone. Compared with the previous one, Xia He was completely different from the previous one.

In front of Li Ze, Xia He turned around and smiled cleverly: "Young Master, this is the material that Tuhu brought to me from the south this time. I made a few sets of clothes, but I have never worn it. This is a dark flower silk cloth that is also rare in the south. The price of a piece of material is several times that of ordinary silk! And it is very rare in our north."

"Whatever you wear is good!" Li Ze laughed, "It looks better if you don't wear it."

Xia He suddenly blushed and paused, but finally glared at Li Ze with a angrily look: "Young master is saying strange things again, let's go! Send those money shop owners so that you can go home."

"That's the point!" Li Ze put up his pen and pushed the table, took Xia He's hand, and the two went down to the second floor side by side.

Less than a hundred steps away from Xiahe's small building, the conference room of Duzhi Department. Although the sun was scorching outside, four huge ice buckets were placed at the four corners of the house. The white air was rising, and the room was very cool and pleasant. In addition, the officials of Duzhi Department would present a cup of iced sour plum soup from time to time. Although there were many people sitting in the house, they did not feel the heat at all.

During the summer season, those who use ice to cool down in such a lot of ice must be either rich or noble in the past. Even the owners of many small money shops present would not do this. After all, the price is still very gratifying in the middle of winter and then preserved until now. But since the previous two years, the price of ice has been lost for thousands of miles. In the past, the businessmen who relied on this business to do other things.

Because first in Wuyi, then in Yizhou, and finally expanded to all parts of Wuweijie Town, a merchant who sold ice at a bargain price appeared. As for how the ice was made, they were not clear, but they were definitely not picking ice in winter and hiding in summer to sell it. If so, this price would be enough for the ice sellers to lose their underwear. Curious, some guys who originally wanted to find out the secrets and then got involved, after knowing the background of this business, they all felt cold sweat from behind, and they all stopped and quietly switched to other things.

The biggest boss in this business is Jieshuai’s mother, Mrs. Wang. The young boss is Cao Xin, the former governor of Yizhou. No matter which one is, they are people they can’t afford to offend.

But no matter what, the price of this ice has dropped to a point where even ordinary people can afford it. In midsummer, not only can ice be used to cool down, but many other businesses have also been derived from this. For example, the popsicles that are popular all over Wuwei are very popular with the people. Everyone can afford it for a penny, and everyone can enjoy it. Although the business is small, and they only do such a two-month business a year, they cannot withstand it's low cost and large sales. In a few months, the benefits are extremely considerable. What's more, there are various popsicles that are targeted at high consumption groups, so the price is not something that ordinary people can resist.

Of course, all the money was finally put into Li Ze's pocket.

Tu Hu is almost familiar with the owners of these money shops here. In the past two years, the business of the supply and marketing cooperatives has been completely spread to the states of Wuwei. When doing business, it is naturally inseparable from dealing with these people. Among these people, those with strong backgrounds and deep enough, as far as Tu Hu knows, at least several major figures in Wuwei have some unclear relationships with them. These money shops used to only operate the business of the government and some large-scale silver and money dealings, while more small money shops mainly make money by putting out seals. These people have some unclear relationships with the government, and of course, they also have unclear involvement with the underworld. As long as they are involved in usury, if they do not have the ability to inform the black and white, they will naturally be unable to survive.

So although these people don’t seem to be much, their energy is really not small.

"This time Tu went to the south, and he really saw what extravagance is." After taking a sip of sour plum soup, Tu Hu smiled and said, "In the past, we only thought that the south was a barbarian land, and we couldn't avoid where to go, but when we really went, we realized that it was much richer than our north. When my fleet arrived in Yangzhou, a local salt merchant received me. Of course, for the sake of the town, I, Tu Hu, didn't have such a face."

"General Tu is the right general of Qianniu Guard. His identity is very famous everywhere he goes." Someone said with a smile.

"The title of the empty title is just to facilitate business." Tu Hu smiled and said, "I only knew what a real rich man is when I saw this big salt merchant. Not to mention anything else, just the banquet that hosted me, do you know what value is?"

Looking at the inquiring eyes of everyone, Tuhu raised a finger.

"One hundred coins?" asked a money shop owner. The consumer price is actually not too high. In Zhuxuan, Zhenzhou, it costs almost so much after a meal.

Tu Hu smiled and said, "More than a thousand stakes."

A sound of gasping in the room suddenly sounded.

"How could it cost so much?" someone questioned.
