Canglangshui, this is simply not an answer.
Imagine you go out today and ask your friends, where should we go?
The friend replied, Yangtze River.
So the destination may be a vast area from the Tibetan Plateau in the west to the Pacific Ocean in the east.
The same is true for Mrs. Xie’s Canglangshui.
Canglangshui stretches across half of Nanliang and flows into the sea in the east. The area covered by "Canglangshui" is really too vast.
But seeing the confident smile on Mrs. Xie's lips, Su Che didn't ask her.
"Okay, then please ask Brother Xie to lead the way."
"That's not necessary, Zhu Er will be there to lead the way."
Su Che looked at it Taking a look at the unhappy looking monster next to her, I guess she was pulled over unwillingly.
"Don't worry, as long as I am here, I will naturally find the group."
The little maid said reluctantly.
It has long been accustomed to a life of fine clothing and fine food, but it is not willing to be suddenly allowed to sleep in the open air.
Three of the four gates in Tianan County are blocked by Tiqi, and the north gate is no exception. Tiqi wearing brocade clothes have long been guarding there. They will naturally recognize Su Che when they see him. Come up quickly and say hello.
Su Che didn’t say much to them and directly ordered them to let them go.
"Brother Su is indeed very skillful."
Wuling County Prince praised: "I don't know what the purpose of blocking the city gate is."
Su Che was very curious about how the Prince of Wuling County could see that he had skills in handling his subordinates.
"Wu Si should remember what I said before about the city god of Tianan County becoming a demon, right?"
"Of course I remember this."
"The city god is The righteous god in the world is based on the word "incense in the world", which can naturally affect his power. This is why Zhiqiang ordered people to block the city gate."
"But Tian'an County. Hasn’t the City God been wiped out by you all?”
“Yes, it’s true, but there is a reason for the city gate to remain closed.”
Su Che explained: “Your Highness. You should know that Cizhou Tiqi’s expenses for a year are all given by the court.”
“This is the rule of the imperial court. Tiqi’s expenses are all in the palace accounts.”

"Yes, that amount of money is a dead end. There is only so much money in a year, but Brother Wu, the things Cizhou Tiqi has to do every year are not a dead end. How many ghosts are there in this year? , there are many demons who intend to rebel, or there are some natural and man-made disasters, no one can say."
"So the money may not be enough?"
"No. It may not be enough, but of course it is not enough."
As the Deputy Qianhu of the Cizhou Sentencing Qianhu Office, one of his responsibilities is to manage the large and small accounts, although he has not looked through the account book since taking up his duties. , but Lu Bai has already told the inside story.
“The palace will first deduct part of the money given to Cizhou Tiqi every year for various expenses. When they arrive at the Royal Horse Prison, a sum of money must be left as flexible expenses. There are many people in the four directions. It’s difficult, it’s rare to be in Cizhou alone.”
“Then we allocated 70% of the money to Cizhou, which is considered too much. As for the other expenses added together, then There is really no money left."
"So the city gate is blocked just to make money?"
"Yes, no."
Su. Che looked at the young prince. For him, there were too many things in the world to care about.
"Brother Su's words made me a little confused. What is meant is yes and no."
"Brother Wu, does he know how much the salary of a hundred households in Tiqi is?"
< p>"How much?""There is no salary."
"Not just Baihu, even Shi Qianhu and I, we don't have salary."
"Is it because we don't have enough money?"
"Exactly. Our salary has been deducted as expenses for a thousand households. Although Tiqi officers with less than 100 households have a salary, it is only three months. Once the city gate is closed, all the fees for entry and exit are a revenue. Even if many of them don't have families, they still have parents to support."
Su Che looked into the distance. mountains.
"Our loyalty to Daliang need not be concealed. The imperial court has never been short of money and food from Yushitai and Jingyesi, but we are different from them after all. Jingyesi are all here for money. Outsiders and Yushitai are also intertwined foreign ministers."
"We Tiqi are our own people in Daliang, so Shi Qianhu, Shi Qianhu and you Baihu don't care about this, but the children below. But we can't suffer anymore. If they suffer, who will be loyal to Daliang in the future?" Su Che looked at Prince Wuling: "So Wei Chen was bold and opened an opportunity for them to make money. They are all loyal ministers of Daliang. If the loyal ministers cannot afford to be filial to their parents, and cannot find a wife to give birth to a son and a half, then sooner or later Daliang will have to..."
"This This kind of thing is nothing new in Tiqi everywhere.”
Mrs. A sum of money and silk will be handed over to Tiqi by the local chief official, and he will use the money to buy peace."
"So when there are evil spirits in various places, local officials and wealthy people would rather find their own solutions than let them go. Tiqi stepped forward."
Mrs. /p>
"Brother Xie is right about what he said."
Prince Wuling sighed: "You really don't know the world until you leave the palace. If you can give Su Sange and the others enough money and food, Are there no such things?"
"Of course not"
Su Che shook his head.Shake his head.
"Just to make up for the money and food for Tiqi, Shi Qianhu and I each have an annual salary of one hundred thousand taels of gold. These things will also happen."
Su Che looked at Wuling County Wang: "Your Highness should also know that today in Daliang, I, the hundreds of households in Tiqi, and even thousands of households in Shi, we actually don't have to live on salary."
"Tiqi His authority is like this, just like sealing the city gate. As long as he is willing to do it, people will naturally give him money."
"I heard that Li Qianhu in Jingzhou and all the brothels in Jingzhou will give him money. Offering a sum of money, which is almost three thousand taels of gold a year."
Su Che was very loyal and did not use Shi Chibao Shi Qianhu as an example, but took the Tiqi chief next door as an example.
"So much?"
Three thousand taels of gold, a figure that even Prince Wuling was quite surprised by.
“Many famous prostitutes in brothels are monsters, and some of them have been in the business for several years. If Tiqi gets serious, I don’t know how many brothels will be turned upside down.”
"They are happy to spend a sum of money to buy peace."
Su Che looked at Prince Wuling and said: "If we say that he is flattering and ecstatic, how many ordinary women can do that?" Comparable to those monsters who specialize in this way? There are only a few hundred-year-old monsters in the building, and there is no way to gain a foothold in Jiangling."
