Yang Chengzu’s matchmaking with the three kings these days has not only made the missing daughter red, but also received many gifts from the three princes, plus a reward from the old army gate. He has earned nearly 3,200 sycees and is already a rich man.
He also took five hundred and twenty pieces of silver out of his hand and distributed it to the fifty pacesetters. Although this dry pacesetter earns a salary on weekdays, it takes a long time for one person to earn twelve pieces of silver. Therefore, when he saw this money, he patted his chest with great joy.
"Yang Bai, don’t worry, the brothers are familiar with this road to ensure that you are all right. If anyone dares to provoke us to caress the camp in Henan, unless you don’t want to live, you guys will give me a mental point to match this silver."
More than 20 horses in the mountain forest are tied to the tree with their feet. Gengda, the stronghold leader of the North Mangshan Mountain, pulled out his own belongings this time, totaling 23 skilled horse thieves. This is his money. I heard that there are quite a few martial arts people who pay more, so they have to work hard. Although killing officials is rebellion, the employer has promised to take care of their hands and tails, so there is no need to worry about it.
It’s all a matter of years, and the old thief means too many people to attack too few materials. In case of loss, others are careful. First, they send patrol scouts and shrink others. When they don’t get cold feet in the Woods, they don’t ride horses to keep their strength. More than 20 Han trees are eating dry food and drinking water, waiting to be killed.
At this time, the scout responsible for exploring the road has returned to the rolling path "coming back to the big house"
Gengda patted his thigh. "Well, it’s all his horses. Whoever cuts off his head will get his silver."
But the sentinel added, "He came with fifty loyalists, and all the water is cavalry."
Gengda laughed. "So much the better. This is for me. Those military guards are very good. We will defeat them with one charge."
"I’ve heard that those cavalry who came with me all went to Fubiao camp from Fengfeng to hua county."
"What are you hesitating about? Don’t dawdle, everyone, hurry back to the mountain! I can’t leave if I get hit by the Fubiao camp. "
Chapter ninety-four Road
Yang Chengzu didn’t know that three assassinations against him along the way ended with the voluntary withdrawal of the assassin. The assassin who tried to assassinate successfully regardless of his own safety was not without it, but the cost was too high and it was impossible to meet.
It’s too much for the Henan government to hire such an assassin with professional ethics and who can live to take orders for a few hundred taels of silver.
For him, it’s not a lot of twists and turns on the way to hua county. When he was near hua county, dozens of Han people suddenly came out. When he met an assassin, those who caressed the standard were also on alert. Several people held their hands to the hilt but saw that the other person’s first one had stuttered and said, "This … this mountain is … me."
As soon as the leader of Fubiao heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. Looking closely, he saw that the dry team was scattered and ragged, and the leader was completely relieved with a ruler and a long firewood knife in his hand.
A rush across the foot with 20 pacesetters and a charge will chase these roadblockers and cry. Dad and Mom are running around. This dry man doesn’t use weapons to beat the whip in his hand. He will beat these roadblockers and cry. Dad and Mom will wait for the loyalist to fight enough. When they get to a place where there are soldiers, they will draw out steel knives and prepare to harvest their heads.
Or Yang Chengzu asked, "Who are you and what do you want to rob the road? Who hired you? "
Those people cried when they saw that the officers and men were going to kill one by one. At this time, it was only humane to listen to Yang Chengzu’s question. "We fled from Huguang. The refugees had no food to eat, and they heard that the outlaw story wanted to get some money so that the officers and men in the story were all waste pustules and would lose a lot of gold, silver and hay when they hit it. I didn’t expect that you didn’t run but rushed over. You rode Ma Chong to come over. Which sun didn’t run?"
Yang Chengzu said, "So do you want to die or live? According to your sins, you should kill them one by one, but heaven will produce virtue. If you are willing to work hard, I will leave you alive. "
He pulled the leading officer aside and said, "When the Yellow River rises, it is necessary to reinforce the riverbank here in hua county. It is time for dozens of coolies to give food or pay, and where can they find each coolie in hua county to reward you with five taels of silver?"
"It’s a deal to ensure that none of them can leave." If these heads want to report for military service, they must have Yang Chengzu’s back. Since this is his attitude, it is not easy to report for service. Besides, it’s not true that it’s not North Lu, and it’s difficult for a civilian to really cut his head, and the silver may not be much.
The officer was happy to do personal favor and nodded, "Everything is at Yang Bai’s command." A soldier escorted a group of people directly into the county seat.
Seeing that Yang Chengzu in the county town has become more and more chaotic when he left, you can always see a lot of ragged people in the streets and alleys. There are also long queues in front of several grain stores. Yang Chengzu inquired that the food price has doubled since he left, and some people spread the news that it is because the court in neighboring provinces wants to allocate food to relieve Henan’s food shortage.
Seeing this situation, the people are worried that the price of food will continue to rise, and some food at home will also line up to hoard Yang Chengzu, so that he can know what he is doing and turn to his home.
When I got to the house, I first saw several Cao gang brothers outside, and the patrol alert was much stricter than in the past.
At the door, a 13-or 14-year-old girl with a delicate face saw him coming, gave a ceremony, and then trotted off to the room. Soon, she was greeted by a fairy. Seeing that Yang Chengzu was desperate and rushed to his arms, his waist was twisted.
"Do you know if you come back and know what new girls are outside, so you don’t want our family? Foster mother, her old man’s house misses you every day and worries about your safety. You don’t even know the letter. It’s heartless to ask her to hit you later. "
"Sister Xian, I’ve only been gone for less than a month, so why not write a letter?"
"Do you know what it’s like to see each other every day, like Sanqiu? You don’t show up for so long and you want to die. There’s still a mother. She’s always afraid that something will happen to you outside and she’s crying every day, but she’s worried about you."
"This is that I am not a fairy elder sister, I went to see my mother."
When he got to the main room, he saw that the maid was waiting behind Liu’s back, but he didn’t dare to ask Liu more. He kowtowed and took out all the gold and silver he got this time. "Girl, you should be happy that you didn’t run in vain to earn so much gold and silver this time."
Nazhi Liu’s face is as heavy as water. "What are you doing showing these things to Niang? I don’t want you to be successful in my official career, and I don’t want you to be rich. I want you to be safe. Come here and let Niang see if this time it’s a thief and a thief. Have you ever been hurt? Red peony, this is the master of our house. In the future, you have to listen to him and do whatever he asks you to do. Chengzu, this is Xianer buying a girl for our house, but she is obedient, clever and clever. "
"Oh, it turned out that Xian Jie bought it. There really should be someone around Niang to wait on it. The child was too careless in the past. Xian Jie is more considerate than I am. I am not in good health. None of those thieves can hurt me."
He stayed at Liu’s side for more than half an hour, holding Liu’s hand and talking about this encounter. When he heard that Zhou Wangfu got a reward and Zhou Wang was drinking at the same table, the red eyes became brighter and the face became redder and redder.
Liu’s listening is also emotional. Hold on to his hand and say, "Chengzu, you can quickly catch up with your father. At the beginning, your father rescued you from the army. Now you can also drink with your chitose grandfather at the same table. This is our Yang family’s accident. Later, Niang will burn more incense in front of the ancestral memorial tablet."
Wait until he came out of the room with red peony to pour tea. Yang Chengzu will be like a fairy in his arms, regardless of whether red peony will put his hand directly into the fairy clothes. "Sister Xian misses me so much. Let me kiss you well. Why didn’t you go to the teahouse today? Isn’t business bad to close down? "
"bah! Your business is not good. Now, Sister Xian, my business is very good, but the teahouse is temporarily watched by Miao and Coral, and I can keep an eye on more important business to do here. "
"What business?"
"Printing, do you know that the grain price in hua county is just like the water outside? It has more than doubled. It has been heard that it will have to rise in a few days. There is no grain sales office in hua county because of the closure of the government there. The grain price in has been rising all the way. It has also been heard that the court will transfer Henan grain to relieve Shaanxi and Huguang."
"Many people have no money and can’t afford to buy food, so they can borrow money. If they don’t succeed, they will have to sell their children and women. Her father is an old scholar. She is still a big girl. Guess how much I spend on her? I tell you, if you buy a big girl for six buckets of coarse grains and two buckets of coarse grains, she has to do whatever she wants. Do you think it’s worth it? I told you that if you want to stop me from printing, I will turn my face. "
Chapter ninety-five Transportation
"I stopped you from printing? I’m not a saint. I’ve never thought about what this food shortage wants. No one starved to death, and I never thought about letting everyone have food and clothes. "Yang Chengzu put his hand into the fairy clothes and said," I didn’t expect the price increase of food to rise so fast, so fantastic, and I didn’t expect to sell girls so soon. If the food doesn’t increase, how can other provinces’ food come in? How can I control them if they don’t come in? These grain merchants want a strange commodity to live in, but they never thought that I didn’t intend to reason with them at all! "
Such as Xiandao, "I’m relieved when you say that. I’m afraid you think that no one will starve to death or that I’m going to be a Bao Gong in this life and forbid me to make money."
"Why don’t I make money? So good, if Sister Xian can’t make a fortune, why don’t you follow me? I am not a person starving to death, forcing an immortal goal will eventually backfire. My pursuit is to keep the overall situation stable and prevent this person’s famine from turning into a large-scale uprising. I can’t care about it. If I am not afraid that the uprising will be too big to control, I hope that there will be hundreds of heads and a military career, and I will be promoted. "
Red shao a listen to this frighten face pale unconsciously sent a movement Yang Chengzu look at her and asked, "a few buckets of food in a girl? Is hua county’s grain already difficult to this point? "
Seeing her eyes slightly red, Hong Shao knelt down and reported, "That’s not mainly because my family is poor. Although my father is a scholar, he has no way to make money. My brother is still young. He still has to study and marry a daughter-in-law. Now I have to find a way to find a job in Miss Da’s teahouse. As a result, Miss Da said that she was willing to buy me six buckets of coarse grains and two buckets of flour and rice at a price, and she also put one or two silver and one stone of coarse grains at home. With this money and food, how can the family survive this famine?"
For example, Xiandao said, "If it weren’t for my food, your father would have starved to death. He didn’t have the ability to make money himself, and he didn’t have any savings at home. Did I save your family’s life?"
"Miss Da will never forget her kindness to me."
"That you should repay? But what can you repay besides this clean body? It’s up to you to serve Chengzu tonight, let him take your room and see the red, and I’ll reward your family with 12 silvers. Maybe I can flatter you as an aunt when you get back. "
A listen to her said the red peony face a red bow way "this ….. red peony is still small … big miss had bought me as a servant girl …"
Such as fairy is a heavy face "when it’s your turn to push from pillar to post? Don’t you have to wait on your master when you are a servant girl? If you don’t want to serve, pay me back my food and silver, and I’ll let you go back to my house. You know the rules. You can sit on the ground and pay interest for nine out of thirteen and pay interest for two points. You can ask hua county to pay the bill now. This interest is the most conscience. If you don’t give me food and silver, just go and wash it, or I’ll send you to the fragrant building. When you get there, you won’t be a man to serve. "
Red peony can’t help sobbing when she hears the return of interest. "It’s a handmaiden unappreciative, miss. Don’t be angry. I’ll serve the public tonight …"
"People haven’t grown up yet. Go and wait on a ghost. It’s hard to go home. It’s a little fun to watch you cry." Yang Chengzu scolded a few words, burying his face in red peony, crying and running like a fairy’s chest.
"That’s a young so tease me? Have you such a great beauty who has the mind to eat that girl "
"Your fairy elder sister is too old to deserve you. You earned thousands of taels of silver in less than a month when you went out. What kind of hero is this? I’m already in my twenties. I’m old and ugly, or I can’t hold my head. I won’t let myself be driven out so that I can get a little girl to invite you to spoil me. Isn’t it good for me to find an innocent girl for you without leaving my innocence to you? She’s a scholar’s daughter, and you’re not tempted at the right age. "
"I’m tempted by my fairy elder sister, so I’ll stay with you tonight. Don’t say you’re not convenient." He overbearingly announced that she would be very sweet if she kissed a few mouthfuls of fairy face.
The whole person is soft in Yang Chengzu’s arms. "You are also a freak. People like little girls and clean people. You prefer old women. So am I and so is Miao."
Fourteen is indeed a young age in the aesthetics of this era. The so-called cardamom is so big that some scholars like women who are hard to pick at this age and think they are elegant.
Yu Ruxian, such as twenty-two or three, has to be regarded as an old concubine, and most of her family has gradually fallen out of favor and been left out of favor by her husband. Yang Chengzu’s infatuation with her makes her feel comfortable from the heart.
Two people in this courtyard, holding the sweet nothings, heard a knock at the door when Yang Chengzu planned to take something further. Although she was scolded by her master, she still kept the door open.
Meet an old woman who lives nearby. First, Yang Chengzu is polite, and then she pulls a sentence like Fairy Road. "I’m sorry to bother you, but it’s really impossible to expose the pot at home. I heard that printing here is cheaper than elsewhere. Please look at the neighborhood …"
"Mrs. Wang, it’s boring for you to say this. If I look after myself in so many neighborhoods, I should beg. But who makes my foster mother a kind person? I should be kind to you. Others are nine out of thirteen to our neighborhood, and the loan is ten out of twelve to the interest. But you know it yourself. Don’t publicize it, otherwise I can’t do this business. How much are you going to borrow and what is the mortgage?"
If Xianxian is familiar with money lending in a few words, she will make it clear and let Hongshao grind and write the iou. She borrowed three taels of silver, and the old woman agreed to let her family come here to get half-stone coarse grains, and so on.
"Nowadays, one of the three major money lenders in the city is Chengfu Temple, one is Jiuye, and the other is how I am. Is your fairy sister great? I’m telling you, this money lending business earns more than the teahouse. Those Cao Gang people outside are our debt helpers and Coral. No one dares not to pay back the money with her stick. "
Yang Chengzu saw that her IOUs were all settled according to grain, and she knew that she was worried about the price increase of grain and the loss of silver settlement. She smiled and pulled her back to her arms. "My fairy sister has something to do, but now she has to switch back to silver when she can pass the grain, otherwise she will suffer."
"Did you say that the price of grain would fall in a short time?" As soon as you hear this, you will know what he means.
"Yes, that’s why I went to Fengshi this time. Sister Xian, you didn’t hoard too much food, did you? If you hoard too much food, you may lose it."
"compensate? I’m ashamed to see you if I want to pay for my business as a fairy. You caught those merchants selling rice from Huguang, and I bought them, and these grain loans are now in my hands. That’s thousands of stones. If I want them to double, how can I pay for them? "
Home蒲友网Fifty stroke pacesetters sent letters, which is a precedent in the past. Yang Chengzu knew that this was the old governor who was afraid that he had been assassinated. He specially allocated troops to defend himself. Naturally, it was a thousand thanks. Shen Dongkui also rewarded the former with three hundred and twenty pieces of silver, saying that he should have rewarded the White Lotus Sect with real meaning. Naturally, everyone knows.
