Chapter 103 - Borrowing but Not Repaying (Asking for Acceptance)

Before Liu Xian went to see the county commander Yang Jie, he first went to meet the more than 200 young men from Yang's County who were left in another courtyard. Genius remembers the first three or five in a second

For the time being, there was no arrangement for them, but Li Yuan asked a few scholars to register some of their information for them first. Then ask them to work in groups to help out at the soup kitchens.

Since they were going to be accepted as the men and horses of the Liu Mansion caravan, then they would be treated the same as those who were studying. However, they will be the escorts of the caravan in the future, and they will also be the soldiers of their own army in the future. As long as these scholars are trained a little, they can be bookkeepers, they can be the shopkeepers of their own restaurants and inns, and they can even be sent to investigate the situation in other counties, towns and other places. In addition, after he becomes an army in the future, there can be no shortage of civilian officials in the army, and they will all be Liu Xian's reserve military civilian officers.

Anyway, Liu Xian's acquisition of so many people at one time is indeed a leap forward for Liu Xian's development.

This time I came to Yangshi County, it can be said that I came to the right place.

Here, Wen Shen saw that Liu Xian had recruited hundreds of people for his caravan at once, and he couldn't help but secretly speak. This doesn't mean that you just have to recruit people, you have to give them food and drink or something, and you have to pay salaries in the future, and the expenses in this are really not a small amount. He asked himself if he could afford it.

He really didn't understand why this Liu Xian was so confident, and he didn't seem to be worried about the money and food in the future. However, the Liu Mansion caravan is probably a merchant who makes money, but why does he think that this merchant will definitely make money? In such a world, it is not easy to do anything.

It's a pity that Liu Xian didn't tell him many things in detail.

In fact, this is not to say that Liu Xian doesn't want to talk to him in detail, the main thing is that Wen Shen and Wang Bao are not their own people now, and they have not officially surrendered to themselves, so there is no need to tell them many things.

While there was still time, Liu Xian said to Wen Shen: "Lord Wen, the county commander Yang Jie and they are not expected to stop delivering grain to us in order to get the huge amount of money allocated by the government above. I believe he will also weigh the pros and cons in his heart. Now they think it's profitable, so how can they pass up this opportunity? At this time, even if Yang Jie himself wanted to give up and stop trading with the government, the rest of the landlords and tyrants would not give up easily. ”

Wen also understands the truth in this, and he can see it clearly. Now that we've dropped the bait, they've taken the bait, and I'm afraid they can't do it anymore. But now I'm afraid that they will force Wen to ask the government above for money. Wen said with a bitter face: "This is written in black and white, it seems that the truth is occupied by them, it is estimated that they will immediately send someone to keep an eye on Wen, urging Wen to apply to the government above for the transfer of money as soon as possible." ”

"Hehe, it's okay, they want to keep an eye on you and let them stare at it, as long as the food is in hand, they are the ones who are in a hurry. You can also rest assured. No matter how anxious they are and how they urge you, they will not do anything to you, after all, only you can contact the government above, and only you can ask for money from above. Unless they don't want the money anymore, they're just urging or even threatening but not really hurting you. Liu Xian smiled and comforted Wen Shen.

Seeing Wen Shen's distressed appearance, Liu Xian was really snickering in his heart.

Now that Wen Shen is on his own boat, let him suffer some hardships, let him see clearly that he is actually inseparable from his own fact now, and then he can only surrender to himself.

This "borrowing grain" incident was a routine from the very beginning, and it was definitely borrowed but not repaid. And it's still the kind of one who doesn't turn back when he opens the bow, Wen Shen has already taken the first step, he represents the government, and in the name of the government, he buys grain from the county order Yang Jie at a high price, this thing is done, then Wen Shen has no way out.

How so? On the one hand, it was definitely impossible for him to really take the white slip that the Yang County Government had sent to the county order Yang Jie to apply to the government above for the transfer of money.

Whether it is Yang Jie, who has no paper application or the county order, they are in the bureau, and they will feel that such an operation is feasible and reasonable. But in reality, it was meant to be a joke.

Is this really a fool when the government above and the Han court are fools? Your Yangshi County government buys grain from local landlords and tyrants at high prices to help the people of Yangshi County? Just such a reason, and then you still want the government or the Han court above to pay for you? Is there such a cheap thing?

Dare to say that it is just that Wen Shen dared to apply to the government above for the transfer of money for this reason, and the government above would remove Wen Shen's official position as soon as possible, and would send him to prison and cut off his head.

In fact, this is also Wen Shen and Wang Bao. If there are some strong subordinate county officials and county lieutenants, even if there are only such a team of 50 officers and soldiers, it doesn't matter whether this Yang County is a special situation. But it is also possible to vigorously promote the relief and rescue work for the people, especially when it is known that those landlords and tyrants still have surplus grain, and they can even directly requisition grain from them, without borrowing at all.

Of course, you can also borrow grain directly, and you can repay the grain when the time comes, and you can repay as much grain as you borrow after borrowing, and you will not be linked to money.

Like Wen Shen, after coming to Yang's County, he really did things according to the original government, thinking that Yang Jie had been appointed as the county order, so he consciously took the county order as the main thing, and cared about Yang Jie's opinion first, and only got the approval of the county order to do it. He actually went to Yang Jie, the county magistrate, to state something powerful, and begged Yang Jie to adjust the market price of grain and rice, and sell it at a reduced price.

Seriously, Liu Xian was indeed a little speechless about Wen Shen. Liu Xian believed that Huangfu Song sent Wen Shen and Wang Bao to Yang's county, and he definitely did not let them be the subordinate subordinates of Yang Jie, the county commander. Instead, let them seize de facto control of Yang County, and then govern Yang County.

It's a pity that the ability of these two people is really limited, and they have no experience in governing the local area.

They really don't have the experience of being local officials, as long as they are stronger and directly requisition the food of Yang Jie and others, do they really dare to refuse? Even if he has the strength of thousands of people in his hands, how can they really take the officials Wen Shen and Wang Bao sent from above? angered Huangfu Song, and sent a team of officers and soldiers to come, and they could destroy Yang Jie and them.

What's more, they dared to deal with Wen Shen and Wang Bao, which was actually tantamount to a rebellion, which just gave the government above an excuse to exterminate their families.

"In this way, when the food is in hand, you can avoid it for the time being, Yangshi County is not only this county seat, but also other villages and towns, when the time comes, let Wang Bao take people to protect you and go to various villages and towns to inspect the situation."

Liu Xian saw Wen Shen's distressed look and gave him a suggestion.
