After listening to Pei Jing's analysis, Lu Qi was thoughtful.

"No wonder, no wonder!"

But then he lost his voice again:

"Does the envoy think that Tongguan will be lost?"

Pei Jing shook his head, he was just guessing, how could he calculate it one by one? Lu Qi suddenly slapped his thigh, as if he remembered something.

"That Xue Jingxian, do you still have an impression?"

Although Pei Jing has never had an errand, he has a lot of love for Feng Yi's big and small affairs, and naturally knows that this former Feng Yi county commander has a lot to do with Cui Liang and Yang Guozhong.

"The envoy entrusted this person with the errand of catching money and Ling Shi!"

"When was the money order appointed?"

Catching money Ling Shi is an official in charge of the capital of the public party, and a vampire demon in charge of the government's lending to the people, both the people and the court have a very bad reputation. From the reign of Taizong to the present, there have been constant calls for the abolition of this kind of government office that absorbs the fat and ointment of the people, but after all, this is a large amount of revenue from local finance and taxation, and how easy is it to cut it down? Therefore, for more than 100 years, it has been abolished and re-established, re-established and abolished, and repeated many times, and the capital of the public party has been stubbornly surviving to this day.

"Just yesterday evening, I saw it with my own eyes in the county guard's mansion!"

"Don't you even want to let go of the people's wealth?"

In this regard, Pei Jing was puzzled, it was indeed appropriate for a villain like Xue Jingxian to do such a dirty errand as catching money and making history, but how could Qin Lingjun not distinguish between black and white?

Lu Qi spread his hands again.

"I don't know the specific situation, let's wait and see the results, so when will you have no purpose? Anyway, I don't believe that you will participate in such a thing that will make you famous. ”

Indeed, the Shenwu Army's ability to raise money is amazing, if there is a shortage of money, as long as a few random children in the army stretch out their fingers, there will be tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars in their hands, why bother to loot the people's fat and people's ointment?

……

"Ming Mansion, catch money and make Shi ask to see!"

Du Fu's face sank, and he asked the official to lead the money Ling Shi into the main hall.

"Subordinate Xue Jingxian, meet the Ming Mansion!"

Xue Jingxian bowed to the ground, his mouth was mixed, he was originally the master of this county court, but at this moment, he was already a person. But the current situation has far exceeded expectations, Qin Envoy Jun not only did not punish the crime, but entrusted him with the task of catching money and ordering history. Although the history of catching money is a very notorious errand, the oil and water in it are abundant, and it is no less than the county order, and even far exceeds the county order.

The shrewd, with just a touch of a finger, will have a large amount of money flowing into the pocket.

In front of Xue Jingxian, Du Fu did not express the slightest dislike for this person, he only said expressionlessly:

"The envoy entrusted you with the post of catching money and making history, Du believes that it is necessary for you to understand that this order history is not the history of the other order. ”

"Please show me!"

Xue Jingxian suppressed the surprise in his heart and replied respectfully.

"In the past, Ling Shi was mainly in charge of lending, but now your priority is to borrow money. ”

"Borrow money?"

Xue Jingxian couldn't have imagined that he, the money-grabbing Ling Shi, was actually responsible for borrowing money. If he only borrows but does not lend, where will he still have the opportunity to make oil and water to repay his debts? But now that he is already a fish on the fire, where is there room to pick and choose?

Without waiting for him to ask, Du Fu handed over an official document.

"This is an official document prepared by the king's relatives, you take it back and study it carefully, and if you do this errand well, the merits and demerits can be offset. The envoy promised to pay you back another errand of the county order!"

The history of catching money is not a bad mistake, although the county order earns little, but the status is very different from it, Xue Jingxian is naturally willing to be a county order. Therefore, when Du Fu said Qin Jin's promise, he couldn't help but be ecstatic.

"The subordinates will definitely live up to their mission and live up to the high expectations of the king. ”

Leaving the county court, Xue Jingxian carefully studied the official document given to him by Du Fu. This is more of a guidebook than an official letter. It lists in detail the main targets of his money-grabbing history, as well as various feasible means.

In fact, the means are also very simple, in the past, it was the public party that lent money to the people, but now it is just the public party borrowing money from the people on the same terms.

Of course, the primary target is naturally the gentry in Feng Yi's place. You must know that the gentry in Guanzhong have been disrespectful to the war for more than 100 years, and the wealth they have accumulated is far beyond the phenomenon of ordinary people, and even the hemp rope of many people's treasury has rotted into ashes.

It is not easy to pick money from the hands of merchants, and it is not easy to take money out of the pockets of these generations of wealthy gentry, but Xue Jingxian has a hundred ways to deal with them.

In order to show something in front of Qin Jin, Xue Jingxian put the first target on the family surnamed Chen. The Chen family has produced many officials, although they are not high-ranking officials, but they are by no means comparable to ordinary people. However, the reason why Xue Jingxian chose the Chen family was because the family's reputation in Feng Yi was not good.

The method of knowing listed in the official document ostensibly was to borrow money from the people on favorable terms, but Xue Jingxian could see at a glance that this was obviously to rob the rich and help the poor. It cannot be said that it is robbing the rich to help the poor, but to be precise, it should be called robbing the rich and helping the rich. Because once the money is borrowed, it has to be transferred out immediately.

A few days ago, the county guard government issued a decree to implement a strict official system for salt, iron and grain, and the entry and exit were controlled by quotas, but a discerning person could see at a glance that this was obviously only allowed to enter but not to leave. This money is purely in order to compensate for the loss of the merchant in it. To put it bluntly, the government only needs to spend a lot of interest money on it.

As for the principal, Xue Jingxian was even speculating maliciously that Qin Envoy Jun would definitely not admit it. Of course, he, Xue Jingxian, would not admit it, and before Qin Envoy Jun did not admit it, he would have been transferred elsewhere to be a county magistrate. As for who will carry this black pot in the end, it depends on who is unlucky.

Originally, he thought that even if Qin Jin was not a righteous man, he was at least a decent official. Now it seems that Xue Jingxian is just a raccoon dog with him, and even surpasses it. The difference is only that Qin Jin is a high-ranking and powerful person, the head of a county, and he has a very deterrent force in his hands. And he, Xue Jingxian, is just an unwilling Ling Shi......

When the head of the Chen family learned that there was a money to make Shi Lai borrow money, although he didn't dare to offend, he still asked the deacon of the family to take out ten taels of gold and beat him away. However, what surprised the head of the Chen family was that this money-grabbing Ling Shi was obviously not here to fight the autumn wind. Because he's here to cramp and peel the skin.

In three days, Xue Jingxian borrowed 200,000 yuan from the Chen family without spending a single soldier. When the money was handed over to the county court, Du Fu sighed again and again. He once worked hard to raise money for the nearby war-affected victims, but almost all the local gentry cried out for the poor, claiming that they had no money to spare.

Now it seems that those gentry are just crying poor. Otherwise, how could Xue Jingxian have borrowed 200,000 yuan from a wealthy gentry in three days? Moreover, the Chen family must be at least ten outside the top ten in Feng Yi County. It is conceivable how much wealth Feng Yi has hidden in the place. In comparison, the treasury is indeed dwarfed and empty.

"These gentry are stingy with money at this time, and once the thieves break through in the future, how much money will be cheaper than the thieves!"

Du Fu firmly believed that the ultimate purpose of Qin and Jin's disguised plundering of local wealth was to resist the rebellion of the thieves, so he was moved when he saw the 200,000 yuan "borrowed" by Xue Jingxian.

"If the Ming Mansion feels that it is not enough, the subordinates can still squeeze out at least 100,000 yuan in the Chen family......"

Xue Jingxian flattered Du Fu in a timely manner, but Du Fu waved his hand and said:

"The wool can't all be sheared on a sheep, just let the Chen family go first, although they are rich and unkind, but they will not ruin their family. ”

"Mingfu Mingjian, then shear the sheep one by one, and no one can run......"

Xue Jingxian left the county court with excitement, and Du Fu groaned for a while and also left the county court and rushed to the county guard's mansion.

Xue Jingxian borrowed 200,000 yuan in three days, and Du roughly estimated that this person would raise millions of yuan. It's just that Jun has offended Feng Yi's gentry because of this, and I'm afraid the gains outweigh the losses......"

Qin Jin doesn't seem to care about this:

"Brother Zimei is too worried, these gentry are just not enough to succeed and more than to lose, if Qin takes them as the foundation, sooner or later he will be eaten and there will be no bones left. ”

"I don't know what the envoy is based on?"

Du Fu rarely spoke so aggressively, but seeing Qin Jinman's indifferent demeanor, he couldn't help but want to advise. It is true that the local gentry cannot be used as the foundation, but the reputation passed on by these gentry is enough to make a person famous in the world, and it is enough to make a person irreversible. Qin Jin is young and vigorous, and if he doesn't take these gentry seriously, he will suffer a big loss sooner or later.

Qin Jin laughed.

"If the Son of Heaven is not suspicious, it will be enough to top tens of millions ......of foundations! I heard that the Angu rebels have fought fiercely with Geshuhan several times in Tongguan, and the Shenwu army will have to fight with it sooner or later."

After hearing this, Du Fu couldn't help but be stunned. Unexpectedly, Qin Jin ruined his reputation, just to avoid making the Son of Heaven suspicious. But whether this is a gain or a loss for Qin Jin himself remains to be discussed.

"Huangfu Ke has sent someone to ask for food again, the more this old man gives him a good face, the more he will have to inch in."

Qin Jin rarely complained with Du Fu about Huang Fu Ke's difficulty, during these days, Pujin Pass kept secret reports, Huang Fu Ke never suspended the negotiation with An Lushan's envoys, and it was clear that he was blackmailing each other to ask for food.

"The envoy has to endure for a while, otherwise he will push Huangfu Ke to the thief, and there will be big trouble in Guanzhong. ”

Pujin Pass, Huangfu Ke loudly reprimanded Feng Tang, a henchman.

"Bastard thing, the surname Qin just let you live, is it like this?

"The general is angry, the last general is not for Qin's envoy, but for the sake of the general. Surrender An Lushan, it will be stinking for 10,000 years in the future, and the last general can't bear to watch the general fall into"

"Fart, which one said that Lao Tzu wanted to surrender An Lushan?"

"In the army, in the army, it is spread like this"

Huangfu Ke actually smiled, pointed at Feng Tang and said:

"You mortals, how can you see that Lao Tzu is far-sighted? If you don't provide for the thief's envoy, how can the little vertical man surnamed Qin obediently give up the grain?"
