Chapter 65: Jiaodong County Night Talk
When Bai Mingzhe dispatched Feng Ju, in the mansion of the county guard of Jiaodong County, Jimo County, a deep voice sounded.
Ma Ning, the county guard of Jiaodong County, knelt behind a desk, facing south, and on his left and right, there was one person each, who belonged to the local powerful forces in Jiaodong County.
Because there are many local heroes, whenever a major event is discussed, several relatively large heroes are always involved. Other little heroes can't ask more, they just need to do what they are ordered.
The Haoqiang interest group is a whole, and there is no need to worry about orders that harm the interests of Haoqiang, and of course, the emergence of orders for uneven division of interests is inevitable.
Ma Ning squinted his eyes, lowered his voice under the dim flickering lights, and said: "Gentlemen, I have heard the news from Chang'an, Your Majesty asked Taiyuan Jun to come to Jiaodong County to make salt and salted fish. According to the distance estimate, this so-called Taiyuan Jun is estimated to arrive. ”
A male official with a thousand stones frowned and said contemptuously: "Taiyuan-kun? Where did this pop up the feudal monarch? Why I've never heard of it. According to the etiquette system, the feudal monarch and the feudal marquis should be sacrificed to the temple and spread the message to the world, why is there no movement in Chang'an? ”
Ma Ning laughed, "Bian Zhi, it's normal that you haven't heard of it, I only learned that there was such a number one person after receiving His Majesty's edict." If it weren't for the Chang'an Edict, who would dare to believe it? ”
Bian Zhi's face was hideous, and he said unhappily: "County guard, what does Your Majesty mean by sending this person over?" Could it be that this is an intention to return the salt industry to Chang'an? If that's the case, we'll have to join forces for once. ”
"Don't worry, the father of the middle doctor is my friend, when he was studying in Qidi, I had a friendship with him. During the day today, I have already sent a clever servant to take my handwritten book and hurry up to Chang'an. Ma Ning patted his chest, with an expression of being in control, "Doctor Zhong is a popular person in the eyes of His Majesty, and he must get some news from His Majesty." ”
Another Haoqiang named Hu Yannian praised him, "Ma Gong is really resourceful, and the middle doctor is also a monstrous skill, and it is not in vain that we give a hundred gold to the middle doctor every year." ”
Ma Ning smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Duke Hu has a good reputation, and now we need to think about how to deal with this so-called Taiyuan Jun." Is it a bribe? Or ......"
He didn't say it, but a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he made a gesture to wipe his neck.
Hu Yannian shook his head and denied the second method, "County guard, I think that if it can be resolved amicably, then resolve it amicably." If you rashly kill a feudal monarch, I'm afraid that the next time you will come will be a general with troops. We have been operating in Jiaodong County for many years, and what we say is always more useful than this feudal monarch. He wanted to meddle in the salt industry, and without the help of the three of us, it would not have been possible to go smoothly. ”
After a pause, he said lightly: "Therefore, I suggest that we find a way to pull him into the interest circle of Jiaodong County, and give him some benefits so that he can be a shield for us!" If Chang'an finds out and pushes him out, if he doesn't find out, each family will just take a few dozen gold less, and it won't hurt. ”
Bian Zhi nodded and smiled slightly, "Brother Hu has a point, this is an opportunity, a chance to really get in touch with the feudal monarch of Chang'an." Although Dr. Zhong has always been the backing of my nephew, he is far away in Chang'an, and some things cannot be conveyed to Jiaodong County in the first time. And this Taiyuan Jun is different, His Majesty has news, and he must be notified first. Wooing him, we are equivalent to mastering Chang'an's attitude and trends towards Jiaodong County. He took our money, if there is a crisis, can he secretly convey some news? ”
Ma Ning gently bit his lip with his upper teeth, he picked up the wooden bowl in front of him, took a sip of wine, and moistened his throat, "What you say is reasonable, and it is best to win over." He can become a feudal monarch, and his influence in Chang'an is definitely not low. If we pass through him and catch the line of the Great Agricultural Order, we can transport a large amount of taxes to Chang'an every year. ”
The national tax revenue was under the jurisdiction of Zheng's big peasant order at that time, and Zheng made statistics at that time.
Maybe it was because of the comfortable life for many years that this county guard couldn't find the north, and he actually thought of bribing the big farmer order and letting the big farmer order give them some money.
The corners of Ma Ning's mouth raised, and he looked at Hu Yannian and Bian Zhi respectively, and said: "In this way, no matter how you look at it, we will make a profit without losing money!" If you cooperate, you will befriend, if you don't cooperate, you will be assassinated! ”
Hu Yannian's soul asked, "Then who should be sent to contact?" I am in charge of the business transactions in Jiaodong County, and Brother Bian is in charge of the salt industry, no matter which party comes forward, it is easy to attract the attention of others. In case this Taiyuan Jun oil and rice do not enter, the two of us will get into a lot of trouble, and I am afraid that the industry will be impacted. ”
"Don't worry about this Jun, the people who come into contact with Taiyuan Jun, I already have a goal." Ma Ning laughed treacherously, "In Gaomi County, there is a city gate captain named Song Xiang, who is insatiable and loves money. As long as he is given ten gold, he will definitely die for the three of us without blinking an eye. ”
Squeezing the bowl hard, he snorted coldly, "Sitting in the position of captain, he shouldn't be a fool, he naturally knows how to save his life." If Chang'an knew about the bribery, it would be a capital crime at the least. If Taiyuan Jun agreed, he only needed to sign and draw; If he doesn't agree, then let the defenders of Gaomi County hack him to death as a bandit! ”
Bian Zhi scratched his head and couldn't help but be a little worried, "Ma Gong, what if, I mean just in case, this Song Xiang is unwilling to take risks?" ”
"Hmph, can this be up to him?" Ma Ning said slyly, "As a county warden, I know the tax situation of each county well. I have a record of who overcharged and who undercollected. Song Xiang has long been famous for his love of money, and you think his ass is clean? If you are not willing to take the risk, I will directly inform the lieutenant and ask him to remove this lieutenant. Du Wei and we are grasshoppers on the same rope, and now that there is such an opportunity to kill the mouth and make money, he will not refuse. ”
"Ma Gong is resourceful, Bian Zhi admires!"
"The county guard is smart!" Hu Yannian also hurriedly slapped a sycophant.
"Okay, okay, you're welcome." Ma Ning smiled from ear to ear and waved his hand, "Although we have been in business for many years, we can't be careless, we must be prepared before Taiyuan Jun comes." ”
He glanced outside the door, and after seeing that there were no extra people, he whispered: "Don't hide it, I have already arranged the Jimo garrison." As long as Taiyuan Jun enters the Wujun Shoufu, there will immediately be three hundred sword and axe men waiting outside. At that time, once he refuses us, even if he has the protection of the lieutenant armor, he will not want to live! ”
Hu Yannian clapped his hands excitedly and laughed: "It's a happy thing to kill a feudal monarch." I haven't killed Fengjun in my life, I hope this Taiyuan Jun won't let me down! ”
Bian Zhi also laughed together, "If it really comes to the point where water and fire are incompatible, this kind of thing is killed, let Brother Hu do it." ”
Ma Ning said with satisfaction: "Okay, come, for the future, let's have a drink!"
"Come on,!"
"!"
