Chapter 23: Scare
Gao Ji then said: Don't think this is too much, this matter has nothing to do with the provincial governor, it is completely my old Gao can't look down on it, I let you do it, I told you, I shouldn't have said this, the provincial governor is not from Huzhou, whether the Huzhou city can be guarded or not has nothing to do with the provincial governor, at most, the emperor will be investigated and demoted in the future, and it is a big deal to continue to be an official in another place! But everyone, our belongings are here, our families, wives and children are here, once Huzhou can't hold it, you will be the first to suffer, I am old and poor, and those belongings are not worth much, I don't want it, but can you give up your family business? Now Huzhou City is in trouble, you are still making a small calculation in your heart, do you know that you drag a point here, the danger of Huzhou City being broken will be one more point, if you think it doesn't matter, then okay, you just sit here, it's a big deal I'm here to accompany you, and when the city is broken, I don't think you can sit still......
Gao Ji crossed his waist, spitted saliva, pointed to the crackling lessons of these richest men, scolded them so much that they were powerless to retort, and then took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, Gao Ji said again: This matter has nothing to do with adults at all, adults, you go down to rest first, you don't have to worry about this matter, I will carry it by myself, buddy, today I am here with you, I see who can consume whom? I tell you not to push me into a hurry, my brother is his own, and I can do anything if I am in a hurry!
Here, Zhang Liangqing hurriedly cooperated and said: Oh, Mr. Gao, calm down, calm down!
Gao Ji said with a red neck like a madness: No, I can't calm down at all, come on, chop them up for me, I see who dares to consume them with me!
As soon as I heard this, according to the previous rehearsal, the soldiers on both sides "brushed and brushed" pulled out their broadswords and were about to put knives on the necks of the richest men, nothing else, just scare!
The richest men see that this is the situation, come on, come on, let's not bargain, how much do you say?
Zhang Liangqing saw that the effect was achieved, so he hurriedly said: One person will pay 100,000.
No! Although the richest men were so frightened by Gao Ji, they were not stupid, but when they looked at the soldiers who were still standing aside with a big knife and Gao Ji with a fierce look in his eyes, they all said one by one: I will pay 50,000, I will pay 20,000, I will pay 30,000, I will pay 10,000...... Wait a minute!
In fact, these people have grown up in the pile of money since they were children, and tens of thousands of yuan are not a matter for them, but the situation is like this, and the situation is indeed very urgent.
As soon as the money came out, Gao Ji's side immediately stopped, and Governor Zhang Liangqing came out to ease the atmosphere: Thank you, thank you for your generosity! On behalf of the people of Huzhou, I will make a gesture for everyone!
This is a governor-level figure, everyone here who dares to accept this salute, they all stand up and return the salute, and then Zhang Liangqing raised his glass: Come, brothers, with your money, I will definitely do more dedication to Huzhou City, today I make an oath here: I swear to live and die with Huzhou City! You are witnesses, come, do it!
After these richest people, the second richest, the third richest, the fourth richest and so on, the next ten rich, eleventh rich, and twelve richest people ...... These rich people are easy to do, and after they all walked around, everyone responded, you give a few thousand taels, he gives a few hundred taels, dozens of taels of silver, and hundreds of thousands of silver will soon be in place.
If you want to touch a very picky person, and you don't want to come out, then you'll be embarrassed, you see what I'm doing in Gao Ji, just send a team of soldiers to your house to arrest the yamen for you, and give you a random charge to beat you dozens of boards, and then say, you have to give the money that should be given when it's over. If you want to redress your grievances, no one will pay attention to you, we are the richest, the richest and the richest, and the richest people have all paid for it, so why don't you come out, and you deserve to be punished.
So the next money was collected very smoothly, and even Zhang Liangqing and Gao Ji didn't expect to collect so much money. The problem of money is solved.
So do we say that the money from the rich family is lost? Definitely not to lose, this account will be calculated in the future, although the money has been temporarily dispersed, but the fame and fortune in the future are there, so this thing is done beautifully, everyone has gained, and no one loses anyone! It's just two words: win-win!
Next, all the money collected was distributed to the GIs, and the GIs had their pockets bulging and their hearts were settled. So although the rebel army organized several sieges of the city, the battle was very tragic, but Huzhou City was defended!
Of course, this Huzhou city can be defended, and it is also because these rebels are not trying their best to fight to the end. Why didn't you work hard? Because they're going to withdraw!
Why did the rebels withdraw when the battle was in full swing? Because this is Zhang Xiuhong's strategy. As mentioned earlier, this group of rebels took advantage of the rising spring water to come to Huzhou City by boat, and now they have reached Huzhou City, and there is no way to continue to advance, because the cost is too great, so there is no need to fight you here.
At this time, the river has risen again in the past two days, and we can completely bypass Huzhou City and continue to move forward! I don't have to pass this level, I have to fight this dungeon, I'll just bypass it and I'll be done, I'll take the next city, after all, we're here to move forward!
After making this plan, the troops of the rebel army quietly boarded the ship, sent people to do the aftermath, and then the large army went south.
As soon as the rebel army moved south, the siege of Huzhou City was lifted, what kind of feelings did the people in Huzhou City feel? They have a kind of regret to a certain extent.
Why pity? Because there are many poor people in Huzhou City, the slogan of the rebel army that year was: As long as we arrive, poor people, your life will change.
So the poor people accepted the rebel army, of course, they had never seen it, they just heard it and spread it! But the middle class, the squire, the richest man, they are overjoyed. Because as soon as the rebel army came, they would have to pay for it, so they were all from the same city, but each type of people had different thoughts in their hearts!
But in any case, Zhang Liangqing, as the governor, came here at a time of crisis, and he also kept Huzhou City: You see that I made a meritorious service when I first came, otherwise I would have died.
Therefore, Zhang Liangqing held a banquet in the name of the governor to reward the wealthy officials and wealthy families and meritorious soldiers who have contributed to the defense of Huzhou City in the past two months.
He also specially invited the richest men who contributed a lot of money, and promised again, saying that we would immediately declare to the imperial court, return your silver, and give you the honor you deserve.
