Chapter 316: King Qin's IOU

Li Song grasped this point, sometimes put a high hat on Xiao Yuan, and sometimes used language skills, in short, it was a clever tongue.

Previously, the people came to theorize, it was uneducated, and they didn't know what to say, but now, this Changning County Commander is obviously a knowledgeable person, and he also knows very well what the point is.

Xiao Yuan didn't think about anything else, but began to think about the consequences of this matter. There is no doubt that if he did not admit this mistake, he would definitely be written about by some good literati, and then use it to belittle the Qin state.

And more importantly, after conquering Jindi, he needs the hearts of the people here. Thinking of this, he first squinted his eyes slightly, and then looked at Li Song and said, "Your Excellency has said so much, this king will admit that you are justified for the time being, and say it directly." Li Song thought for a while and said: "In terms of Changning's grain production, in previous years, the people's yield per mu was more than four stones, 1,300 mu, which is about 5,200 stones. "At that time, one stone, about 110 catties now, 5,200 stones, is about 570,000 catties.

After hearing this, Xiao Yuan immediately said angrily: "Bold! It is unreasonable to say that Changning's yield per mu is so high! Li Song said: "Your Highness is angry, under the Changning County Order, the cultivation and grain production in the county are all clear, and every sentence is true, how dare you deceive Your Highness." ”

"You!" Xiao Yuan was angry, and couldn't help but glance at Su Yi. Seeing this, the latter hurriedly came over, and said in his ear: "King, this person is messing around, it is not easy for our army to store grain, how can there be excess grain and grass to compensate them, the king doesn't have to pay attention to it, if this person dares to entangle again, it will be ......"

"Oh, it's troublesome." Xiao Yuan whispered helplessly. After a pause, he said to Li Song again: "In this way, forget the grain and grass, exchange the mu yield for silver, and this king can make corresponding compensation for this, and you can appease the people of Changning." When Li Song heard this, he nodded and said: "I have no opinion on changing it into silver money, dare to ask Your Highness, how much silver is ready to be paid?" ”

"Naturally, it is calculated according to the market price of grain." Xiao Yuan said directly. This is already very good, but Li Song is not satisfied, and immediately said: "No, no, no, Your Highness's words are wrong, after the torrent raged, more than 1,300 acres of fertile land were all destroyed, not just superficial losses, these fields, now can no longer be called fertile land, if you want to cultivate in the coming year, you need to reclaim it, therefore, in my opinion, in general, His Royal Highness should come up with this amount, 100,000 taels of silver." ”

"What did you say!?" Xiao Yuan was furious, and patted the handsome case and said: "Little county order, bold!" How dare you blackmail this king!? "One hundred thousand taels of silver, of course, is nothing to a king, no matter how poor the Qin State is, this amount of money is still trivial, Xiao Yuan's anger is not in this.

With a bang, Li Song's body trembled, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground, bold, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness Mingjian, how dare you joke in front of the king, these are all counted according to the destruction of good land......"

"How can it be!" Xiao Yuan was angry, he also stood up, began to pace back and forth, and then looked at Su Yi: "Is there money in the army?" ”

"King, military spending is already a little insufficient." Su Yi returned. Hearing this, Xiao Yuan took a deep breath, paced, stopped again, looked at Li Song and said: "In any case, it is true that the people's fertile land was destroyed, and this king will not shirk his responsibility, in this way, 100,000 taels of silver, Qin State can agree, after that, someone will send it to Changning and share it with the people, you go back first." ”

"This ......" Li Song swallowed his saliva, glanced at Xiao Yuan cautiously, and said, "But Your Highness, there is no basis for what you say......"

"You're bold!" Xiao Yuan couldn't hold back any longer, and his voice was a little colder: "This king is the king of a country, how can he joke!" ”

"This, this is a person who is here today, if this matter is over, His Royal Highness refuses to admit it, how can he explain it to the people of Changning." Li Song said urgently.

"Then what do you want!" Xiao Yuan asked angrily.

"If you can, Your Highness had better ...... It is best to write a document, with Qin Jun's own handwriting, no one in the world will not believe it. Li Song said.

"Okay, you Changning County Order!" Xiao Yuan pointed at him angrily. At this time, all the generals in the tent couldn't help it, and Peng Shuang said directly: "King, why are you talking so much nonsense with this dog official!" In the opinion of the last general, it was directly dragged down and cut! ”

"That's right! The small county order dared to ask the king again and again, which was really rude! ”

"My king is the king of a country, a small county order, dare to be reasonable!? It's ridiculous! Believe it or not, slaughter Changning immediately! The Qin generals glared at Li Song one after another, and many of them even pressed the hilt of the sword at their waist with their hands, looking like they were drawing their swords at any time.

Seeing this, Li Song's heart was in his throat, and he immediately shouted: "Your Highness can't kill me!" I only represent the people of Changning, and according to the truth, with the mind of His Royal Highness, I will not be angry with me......"

"You don't wear a tall hat!" Xiao Yuan's anger continued unabated. But even though he said that, after calming down a little, he still shouted: "Get pen and ink!" ”

"The king......" All the generals showed incredible expressions, this king is really ready to agree to this Changning County Order?

Xiao Yuan raised his hand slightly and stopped the generals. His mood was also very depressed, but this matter still had to be dealt with.

After the sergeant put the pen and ink, Xiao Yuan also glared at Li Song fiercely, and then he took the pen and dipped it in ink and began to write.

After he put down the pen, he threw the silk book to Li Song directly. The latter hurriedly bent down to pick it up, and after unfolding it to take a closer look, he was also overjoyed.

In the silk book, it is written that the Qin army attacked Jin and accidentally destroyed the fertile land of the people of Changning, and the Qin State assumed this responsibility, and there would be 100,000 taels of silver to appease the people of Changning later.

The payment is made by Xiao Yuan, the king of Qin. This is Qin Jun's own handwriting, Li Songna regarded it as a treasure, and hurriedly folded it carefully and put it into his arms, and then knelt on the ground: "In this case, thank Your Highness for the great kindness of the people of Changning, so I will not disturb Your Highness, and I will retire first, and I will retire first......" After he gave the salute, he also left in a hurry, where did he dare to stay, as if he was afraid that Xiao Yuan would regret it.

When the generals in the tent saw this, they hated it so much that the roots of their teeth itched, but Xiao Yuan had no order, and people couldn't stop it.

Li Song is like picking up a bargain at the edge of a knife, and his appearance is no different from running away. Seeing him run away, Peng Shuang was puzzled: "King, this ......"

"Forget it." Xiao Yuan sighed lightly and said: "For the future governance of Jindi, 100,000 taels of silver is worth it, although this Changning County Order is really hateful, but let him go." "This is really an unconventional king, the king of the heavens, who would be like this, I am afraid that in a fit of anger, Li Song would have been killed a long time ago.

Xiao Yuan is sometimes very ruthless, just like before, he will acquiesce to Su Yi's killing of prisoners, but sometimes, he will think about the people.
