Chapter 81: Who Takes Advantage of Whom

The big head was killed and he didn't want to be a soldier, and he was also not interested in being an additional foreign commission, a military attache from the ninth grade, Du San touched his nose, and could only go back to the table and shout Han Xiufeng to drink.

I thought he was very good at drinking, but he was so drunk that he vomited everywhere. And the amount of alcohol is practiced, and at a glance, you can tell that he is so poor that he has not let go of his stomach for a long time, and he has eaten meat and drank wine.

Pan Er finally saw the true face of this martial arts master, and finally knew how cheap the military attache was, cleaned the room and went to the riverside with Han Xiufeng to breathe, muttering as he walked: "Fourth brother, I really thought he was a character at first, but it turned out to be nothing." also wanted to trick the big head into becoming a soldier, which was obviously greedy for life and afraid of death, and made it clear that he wanted the big head to help him block the sword and arrows. ”

Han Xiufeng said with a smile: "No matter what you say, he is also a thousand presidents, and he is still a fellow villager, just talk about these words outside, don't say it again after you go back." ”

"You know, I don't chew my tongue." Pan Er nodded, thought about it and said with a bitter face: "Fourth brother, his turtle son is relying on us." Why don't you go and talk to the post book, and think of a way to entangle him tomorrow, and we will leave as soon as the boat arrives, without waiting for him, and not letting him take advantage of us. ”

Han Xiufeng has been thinking about this all the time, and muttered: "When you go out, the first thing is friendship." It would be easy to keep him out of our ship, but it would be unkind to do so. Besides, when he arrives in the capital, he will definitely live in the Chongqing Hall, and it will be embarrassing to look up and see him when he looks down. ”

"But we don't have a lot of money!"

"Whoever takes advantage of whom is not necessarily," Han Xiufeng touched the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but smile: "Brother Pan, don't you envy him in the morning for having a survey of the military department, bringing him means that we also have a survey." There is no need to pay taxes to pass the customs, and there is no need to spend money to live in a post station, and we only need to care about his mouth, and we still earn it. ”

"Can he agree?"

"I've sworn to him, and now I don't ask him to be born on the same day, the same month, the same year, but to die on the same day and the same day, don't you agree to slap him in the face? Besides, he doesn't need to spend a penny more, as long as he passes the pass and lives in the post station, he tells people that we are his family. ”

"Yes, that's it, but we can't afford to spend it like this."

"It's natural, and we are all reluctant to spend money indiscriminately."

Confirming that he would not be taken advantage of by Du San, Pan Er finally breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it and asked curiously: "Fourth brother, what did I hear him say just now, what are the general managers of Menmen, Wei Qian, and foreign commissions, are there several kinds of these thousand generals?" ”

"yes." Han Xiufeng found a clean stone and sat down, rubbed his legs and explained: "There are nine gates in the capital and seven gates outside, and each gate is guarded by a thousand presidents, so those thousand presidents are called door thousand generals; Each guard and guard under the jurisdiction of the governor of Caoyun is divided into thousands of generals, commanding Caoyun and leading the transportation of grain, and those thousands of generals are called Wei Qianzong and guarding the palace Qianzong. ”

"What about Du San, what is Du San?"

"His current Qianzong from the sixth grade is just a false title, and he still has food and salary as a soldier, and he doesn't even have food and salary. However, he has been on an errand with the battalion for three years, and he has the guarantee of the town, so it should not be difficult to make up for this shortage. ”

Pan Er asked, "Don't you have to stuff silver for those officials in the Ministry of War?" ”

Han Xiufeng said with a smile: "If you just want to make up for a gap, you really don't need to spend money on martial arts like him." However, there are many kinds of shortages, including fat shortage, bitter shortage, shortages along the border, and shortages in the interior...... If he really doesn't pull out a dime, even if those officials of the military department don't let him go to Liangguang to quell the chaos, they will also put him outside to Rongbian, a bitter cold place. ”

"He's a goblin, he should have been prepared, and he must have silver on him!"

"Not necessarily."

"Why not?" Pan Er asked puzzled.

Han Xiufeng sighed lightly, raised his head and said, "The Qing Dynasty is a world full of people, and the Green Camp cannot be compared with the Eight Banners. For example, the Admiral of the Green Battalion from the first product is only eighty-one taels per year, while the Eight Banners General and the Dutong, who are also from the first grade, are one hundred and eighty taels! The gap between ordinary soldiers is even greater, and the monthly salary of the soldiers of the Eight Banners is one-third higher than that of the Green Battalion, and the monthly rice is more than three times more. And the Eight Banners soldiers also have items such as Ji Ding's field and soldiers' famous food, while the Green Battalion soldiers only have monthly salary and rice. ”

Pan Er groaned: "He's just a nominal Qianzong, even if he wants to, he can't get any money?" ”

"Don't talk about him, the nominal President Qian, even those who are in office have no oil and water, so they can only eat empty salaries and drink the blood of soldiers. However, there were only 500 soldiers in one battalion, and they had to honor the generals, guerrillas, commanders, and garrisons above them, and they could not even have a single soldier under them, so they could not eat much empty salary. ”

Han Xiufeng paused, and then said: "They don't dare to harm the place, if they dare to do anything nonsense outside, not to mention the general manager, the garrison, the capital division, and the guerrillas, even if they are generals and general soldiers, the governor will still not give them face, and it will be light to dismiss them and wait for them." ”

"What this official did is too aggrieved!"

"So it's said that the noble and the martial arts are cheap."

………

At the same time, I didn't find anything at night, and I didn't find anything in the morning, until I spent a few hundred dollars just now to buy a post man in Longxi Station, and I found out what happened last night, Liu San, who was reporting to Zhou Zhixian with a bitter face.

"He was a thief with a weak heart, afraid of being recognized by us, so he didn't dare to go ashore, and hid on the boat until night before he asked the boatman to send a letter to the chief and post book of the prince of Changshou County. His father-in-law seemed to be on an errand in the government, so Yang Changsui and Yishu helped him, found a few clothes for the officials, changed them for him, and then took advantage of the chaos to let him go ashore. ”

As soon as he thought of Ba County's affairs, Zhou Zhixian was on fire, and asked through gritted teeth: "What about others, are they still on the shore?" ”

"No, he knows that you are here, master, how dare you stay, as soon as you get ashore, you left overnight." Liu San peeked at the second master who was standing in the corner, and said cautiously: "The elder of the Changshou County Lord also allocated a horse, and sent four young men to escort them all the way, I estimate that they have arrived at Shimenyi at this time." ”

"Where are the people gone?"

"The boat is gone, too, early in the morning." Liu San took a deep breath and said worriedly: "Ding Er saw that there was nothing valuable on the ship, and the boatman looked quite honest, so he asked for two hundred yuan and let the boat go." ”

The sworn enemy actually slipped under his nose like this, and the more Zhou Zhixian thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, pointing to his elder Liu San and asking: "When they docked last afternoon, why didn't you get on the boat to take a look?" ”

"Master, his ship only arrived when it was dark, and we didn't know he was on ...... ship."

"Forget it, I can't blame you all for that." Zhou Zhixian pondered for a moment, suddenly turned around and walked to the table, picked up the pen and said coldly while writing official documents: "Second brother, although he ran away from under our noses, he can't run far, you quickly find a boat to chase, bring a few more people, and bring a few hundred catties of copper, and give him personal stolen goods!" ”

suffered a big loss in Ba County on Tuesday, hating Han Xiufeng more than his eldest brother, but he messed things up in Ba County, and he didn't dare to speak, seeing that his eldest brother sent a message to clean up Han Xiufeng, he said excitedly: "Big brother, this bag is on me, as long as he takes the waterway, he will definitely be able to catch up!" ”

Zhou Zhixian put down his pen, stamped the big seal on the sea fishing document he had just written, and then raised his head and said: "You must live, only the living can care about his father-in-law asking for money." He has the audacity to do anything wrong to me, and see how I can give him a way to repay him in the way of others! ”
