One eats, two invites, three gifts, four blows, five praises, six courtesies, seven pulls, eight beats, nine kisses, and ten perfect supplements for women! This sentence is too familiar to Wu Yuanming, the former captain of the traffic police team, if Wu Yuanming hadn't played these tricks well, how could he climb to the throne of the traffic police captain in just four years as a junior high school graduate and temporary traffic policeman? If it hadn't happened to that accident, Wu Yuanming would still be in the 21st century, Wu Yuanming would have been aiming for the bureau-level throne a long time ago.

It should be said that it is the luck of the Qing Dynasty officialdom, a few days ago, Wu Yuanming was shy in his pocket, and he squeezed out 10,000 taels of silver to build a royal carriage to bribe Mulima, barely opening up the way to worship the first cronies, and it was too late to show his skills to corrupt and degenerate the Qing officials who were as clean as water. It is a pity that the situation is different now, Wu Sangui sent to Beijing to bring a hundred and fifty carts full of all kinds of gifts to Kangxi's tribute team, including local specialties and rare medicinal materials from Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, as well as foreign specialties such as rhino horn, ivory, jade, coral and pearls that are abundant in foreign countries such as Siam, Annam and Burma, as well as countless rare treasures.

"Shizi, the one hundred and fifty carts of gifts sent by the prince, the old slave has already asked someone to appraise it." Wu Fu, who had just returned from outside the city, took out an account book and reported to Wu Yuanming: "According to preliminary estimates, the 150 carts of gifts are worth at least 600,000 taels of silver. ”

"Six hundred thousand taels of silver? So much? Because of the all-night secret conversation with Yao Qisheng and Liu Xuanchu and the fact that he didn't sleep all night, Wu Yuanming's eyes were already bloodshot. After hearing Wu Fu's report, Wu Yuanming's eyes immediately widened, and he said in surprise: "My father has only had a military salary of two million taels of silver every year in the past few years, and he suddenly brought a tribute of 600,000 taels of silver to pay tribute, so how can the army live?" ”

"The prince doesn't have to worry." Wu Fu smiled and said: "This question, the old slave also asked those pawnshops who went to appraise, they said that these things can be worth 600,000 taels of silver in Beijing, but in Yunnan it is much cheaper, take the jade of Myanmar as an example, the jade and jade that can be bought for 100 taels of silver in Yunnan will be sold for at least 3,000 taels in Beijing, because the merchants sell to Beijing, and the road will be taxed layer by layer, so the capital will go up, but who dares to collect taxes in the prince's tribute convoy, the price difference is big." There is also this ivory, elephants are produced locally in Yunnan, and the prince can hunt without flowers, which is even more profitable. ”

"I see, my dad is really stingy enough, and he takes some things that are worthless and don't cost money in Yunnan to fool Xiao Mazi." Wu Yuanming laughed out loud, and then ordered: "Wu Fu, you take out some of these gifts and exchange them for 400,000 taels of silver, and then prepare a few carts of jadeite, ivory, coral, and pearls for me, I will be of great use." ”

"Shizi, this is something that the prince paid tribute to the emperor, is it too much for you to take out two-thirds of the cash? On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, what else do you pay tribute to the emperor? Wu Fu asked worriedly. Wu Yuanming smiled, touched his bare chin and said: "The ancients said that sending goose feathers for thousands of miles is a light courtesy. You leave Pu'er tea, black kohlrabi, baiyao, dried mushrooms, dried bamboo shoots, gastrodia, eucommia and other things from Yunnan and dried mushrooms, dried bamboo shoots, gastrodia, eucommia and so on, and I will offer them when the time comes. ”

"Shizi, these are the most worthless things." Wu Fu was taken aback, and said in a trembling voice: "If the emperor investigates it, this is a great crime of disrespect." ”

"It's fine." Wu Yuanming smiled and said: "Wu Fu, you don't understand this, if I give something valuable, Kangxi will say, isn't your Wu family very rich?" Why do you still ask the court for additional military salaries? I offer these worthless things to show that our Wu family is already so poor that they are almost pants in order to subsidize the soldiers' salaries. In this way, when I asked for military pay, I was more confident. ”

"Is that really the case?" Before Wu Fu came back with the cash that Wu Yuanming urgently needed, Wu Yuanming could have chosen to make up for sleep like Yao Qisheng and Liu Xuanchu, but after a little consideration, Wu Yuanming, who was tired, took out a bag of South China Sea pearls brought by Liu Xuanchu and asked Huangfu Baozhu to go to Shi Jianmei's room. For Wu Yuanming, he didn't have the slightest hatred for Shi Jianmei, who had always wanted to kill him, and he was very sympathetic and sorry for this poor girl, so Wu Yuanming never wanted to kill or drive her away.

Wu Yuanming didn't dare to enter Shi Jianmei's room, and when he arrived outside the door, he still saw the route that could escape, so he knocked on the door and shouted, "Miss Shi, Miss Shi, please come out for a while." After a while, the door opened, and Shi Jianmei, who was much haggard and much thinner, appeared in front of the door. The moment she saw Wu Yuanming, Shi Jianmei wanted to pounce on Wu Yuanming and break Wu Yuanming's body into pieces, but seeing Huangfu Baozhu standing not far behind Wu Yuanming, Shi Jianmei forcibly suppressed the impulse in her heart and asked coldly: "Little traitor, what tricks do you want to play?" Do you want to kill me, or do you want to drive me away? ”

"Neither." Wu Yuanming put his legs in a posture that he could run away at any time, and handed the bag of pearls to Shi Jianmei with one hand, "Miss Shi, this bag of South China Sea pearls was brought by my father from Yunnan, and it was originally intended to be given to Princess Jianning, but that ugly woman has not come back since she entered the palace that day, anyway, she has these things, so I will give them to you." ”

Wu Yuanming said 'that day', naturally it was the day Shi Jianmei lost her body, thinking of the events of that day, Shi Jianmei's haggard and beautiful face was immediately smeared with a layer of redness, and the murderous aura dissipated a lot. However, Shi Jianmei's attitude towards Wu Yuanming will not change in the slightest, and she stretched her face and shouted: "Don't, you get out of me!" Or I'll kill you! ”

"Slut, the prince is kind enough to give you a gift, if you don't appreciate it, forget it, and speak ill of it, looking for a fight!" Huangfu Baozhu was furious, and stood up from behind Wu Yuanming angrily, Wu Yuanming hurriedly stopped him and said in a low voice: "General Huangfu, forget it, I'm sorry for her first." Stopping the Huangfu Baozhu, Wu Yuanming turned to Shi Jianmei again and said: "Miss Shi, I heard from the servant that you haven't eaten for two days, you have to take care of your body, if you want to leave, tell me, I will give you the travel expenses and living expenses." ”

"You'd rather I go, wouldn't you?" Shi Jianmei clenched her fists and asked angrily. Huangfu Baozhu was furious again, and just when he wanted to speak, Wu Yuanming stopped him again and said to Shi Jianmei: "Yes, I really want you to go, because you want to kill me anytime and anywhere, and keeping you by your side is equivalent to raising a tiger by your side." But I don't want you to go, because you have been abandoned by Wei Dongting and become my person again, if you leave me again, you will only have one way to commit suicide except for the ancient Buddha green lantern for the rest of your life. I am the one who caused your current situation, and I am very guilty, so I really can't bear to see you like this, I let you choose for yourself, if you want to leave, I will never stop you; If you are willing to stay, I will support you for the rest of your life. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Yuanming sighed, shook his head and said: "Don't worry, you are already my person, I will not use my woman to beautify people, nor will I let you risk your life to break into the enemy's interior to investigate intelligence, and live that precarious and trembling life." As long as you stop being stubborn and stop thinking about revenge, I will make you live happily. After that, Wu Yuanming gently put the bag of pearls in front of Shi Jianmei, turned his head with Huangfu Baozhu, and left Shi Jianmei to think for a long time in the same place......

In less than two hours, Wu Fu and his son exchanged part of the tribute for 400,000 taels of silver according to Wu Yuanming's instructions and brought it back to Wu Yuanming's home, because the silver credit in the capital had just been smashed by Wu Yuanming himself, and no one dared to use the silver ticket for the time being, so the silver tattoo that Wu Fu brought back was all Taizhou ingots of ten taels and one ingots, which immediately filled the dungeon of Wu Yuanming's mansion. With these white flowers, Wu Yuanming's confidence increased greatly, and after discussing with Yao and Liu, he brought 10,000 taels of silver and prepared to find Aobai's younger brother Mulima.

"Shizi, this incident of urging military salaries, in fact, I saw that the court did not dare to turn against the prince at this time, so I suggested to the prince to take advantage of the fire to rob." Liu Xuanchu smoked a hookah and said slowly: "You have to remember clearly, the queen mother gave in to the prince because she did not dare to force the prince, and the reason why she united with Ao Bai to put pressure on the prince was because she didn't want to pay more money, and she didn't really want to go to war with the prince." In this way, the hole cards of the court are actually very clear, and they don't dare to force the prince anyway, so you don't have to be afraid of how the court intimidates and threatens, those are just bluffs, just let it go. The purpose of the court is not to force the prince to rebel, but to save some silver. ”

"Your father's conflict of interest with the court is silver, and the conflict of interest between Ao Bai and the court is power." After being disappointed with Kangxi's courage, Yao Qisheng's attitude towards Wu Yuanming also improved a lot, and said in a gloomy manner: "The old fox of the Empress Dowager pulled Ao Bai to join forces, using the national affection of the Manchus, and the conflict of interests between them has not been resolved in the slightest, this kind of national affection is naturally unbreakable in the face of life and death threats, but it is extremely fragile in the face of interest disputes. So what you have to do is to tie up the interests of your Wu family with Aobai, then the alliance between the court and Aobai will be self-defeating, and at that time, you just have to open your mouth to the lion of the court. ”

"Another point, although Ao Bai wants to kill you with Kangxi's knife," Liu Xuanchu reminded again: "But Ao Bai himself will never dare to poison you, and Ao Bai is also afraid that the prince will join forces with Kangxi under the banner of Qingjun's side, so Shizi, you must not resist the impulse to openly turn your face with Ao Bai because Ao Bai has assassinated you a few times, this is just an irrational behavior." ”

"Uncle Liu, don't worry, I'm not stupid enough." After Liu and Yao's pointing, Wu Yuanming already clearly knew the gap between himself and Aobai and Xiaozhuang, in order not to be sold by the two old foxes in the future and count the money for them, Wu Yuanming listened carefully and respectfully to the guidance of the two old foxes at home, and then took Huangfu Baozhu and others out of the house.

The snow in Beijing is still very heavy, but because of the turmoil yesterday, there are still many troops patrolling the streets, but the small stall vendors and the flower children are gone, without these street vendors who are disgusted by the dignitaries and nobles, Wu Yuanming took the cart full of silver on the road without any delay, and came to the door of Mulima's house smoothly. Wu Yuanming got out of the car and personally went to the gatehouse to hand over the name thorn, and said to Goshha in the gatehouse of Mulima's house: "This military master, please report to Lord Mulima, and say that Wu Yingxiong, the prince of Pingxi, asked to see him." ”

"Shizi, my master is still not here, please come back another day." Wu Yuanming had already come to Mulima's house once yesterday, so Nagoshha knew Wu Yuanming, and according to Mulima's instructions, he still shirked Mulima's absence. Yesterday, Wu Yuanming was short of money in his hand, and he had no confidence in speaking, but today is different, after being rejected again, Wu Yuanming was not angry, and smiled at Wu Lu with a smile on his face, Wu Lu immediately took out ten ingots of snow-bright silver, white silver, and shook Nagoshha's eyes blood-red.

"Isn't Lord Mulima still home?" Wu Yuanming threw a piece of silver into Nagoshha's arms and asked with a smile. Na Goshha swallowed the saliva that was about to flow out of the corners of his mouth, looked at no one on the left and right, and said to Wu Yuanming with a low smile: "Shizi, in fact, our master is at home, but he is quarreling with his wife, so he doesn't see outsiders." ”

"Lord Mulima and Mrs. Mulima quarreled for what?" Wu Yuanming threw another ingot of silver into Na Goshha's arms, and Na Goshha replied in a low voice: "Shizi Mingjian, wasn't the Jufeng Silver No. robbed yesterday?" The silver stored in the silver number of our master has also been lost, and now the remaining cash in our family is not even a thousand taels, not to mention feeding a family, that is, the fifteenth Lantern Festival of the first month can not be used to save energy or the same thing. Son, tell me, can this lady not mess with the master? ”

"Good." Wu Yuanming nodded with satisfaction, and then instructed Wu Lu and Wu Xi to bring two thousand taels of silver, put the wooden box containing the cash silver in front of Na Goshha, and then stuffed all the silver in Wu Lu's hand to Na Goshha, and said in a big way: "I bother you to give this silver to your noble lady, just say that I gave her the pocket money to buy rouge, this is not against your master's order, right?" Questions? ”

"No problem, no problem." Nagoshha happily agreed, and called a few companions to carry the silver to the lobby. In a moment, Mulima's wife ran out of the lobby with her hair disheveled, "Shizi, you are so polite, how dare you be a concubine?" ”
