Chapter 625: Handy
Zhang Fa disagreed with Li Mu's statement of 'scattering coins', in his heart, Li Mu's performance was similar to that of a nouveau riche. But he didn't have any jokes, thinking about when he was a talent, he was also a penniless poor scholar, after becoming a county magistrate, when he got the first extra money, his mood was so similar to the Hou Ye in front of him, at that time, he really preferred not to spend himself, but also to let people know, show off with relatives and friends, I Zhang Fa is finally out of luck, become an official and have money, better than all of you.
Zhang Fa thought in his heart, Li Mu should have the same idea. When I was a child, I was looked down upon in Mayi, but now that I am a marquis, I must let people take a look, and it is reasonable for the young man to have ambition. Zhang Fa secretly made up his mind, he must round the face of the Hou Ye, if the Hou Ye does not have enough money, he will have to make up for it by smashing the pot and selling iron, this is not the time to care about the money, climb this high branch, with the power, are you afraid that there will be no money?
Leaving from Li Mu's tent, he returned to the city in a hanging basket, slept happily, and as soon as the day dawned, Zhang Fa got up, cleaned up, and called the officials and officials of the county government to wait for Li Mu to wait at the gate of the city according to the situation that had been rehearsed countless times before. Of course, the county lieutenant who was named was not among them, Zhang Fa had already sent him away overnight, this was also for his good, otherwise if he saw it to Hou Ye, maybe his life would be gone.
Beat the gong and drum to welcome Li Mu to the city, and after walking a few steps, Li Mu stopped and asked Zhang Fa if he was ready to make a notice. Zhang Fa was naturally ready, and he was busy letting people post it. There are few people who can read, the master read it twice with his throat, and the people learned that the Hou Ye, who had returned to his hometown in fine clothes, was going to donate to build a library, and he didn't need money, and the sons of the poor could also read, so they all knelt down on the ground, and praised them repeatedly, Li Mu was in a good mood, and ordered the people to get up, and he was going to start throwing coins.
When the people heard that Hou Ye was going to send money, they all looked at each other in disbelief, although Zhang Fa's face was full of sincerity, but it was the same in his heart, sending money? Who has the money to give to the poor people, I'm afraid it's not just for show. This shows that Hou Ye is still young, he talks so much, and the people have gathered so much, if he only sprinkles one hundred and eighty times, how can he send it away?
In order to please Li Mu, Zhang Fa secretly gave the master a look, and the master understood, called a few officials, and carried two boxes of copper coins over, ready to renew it when the marquis had no money, and this face was found.
But the next scene made him completely dumbfounded. I saw Li Mu ascending the city wall, followed by a long team, sergeants in groups of twos and twos, carrying a heavy box, there were ten boxes.
Li Mu raised his hand, and the sergeant put the box down and made a heavy sound. The box is wide open, reflecting the rising sun, when it is the glow of the sun, the color of the thousands, not only the color of copper, but also silver, and even gold, Li Mu stands in the light of the morning sun and these gold and silver treasures, like a fairy.
"Fellow villagers, Li Mu went out from Mayi, because of fate, he occasionally made an inch, thanks to His Majesty's refusal to give up, and received a lot of rewards. I grew up watched, and everyone knows me. I Li Mu, not a person who values money, His Majesty gave me these rewards, I don't know how to spend them, this time I returned to my hometown, I brought back all the rewards that His Majesty gave me, not much, miscellaneous and miscellaneous combined, it was only thirty or forty thousand dollars, all given to everyone, in the future, when I am not there, I hope everyone will take care of me, burn more incense for me in the ancestral hall, thank you neighbors! ”
After Li Mu finished speaking, with a wave of his hand, the sergeants began to scatter coins, according to Li Mu's instructions, grab them and throw them, far and near random still, can not be thrown to one place, strive to be even, as for the copper coins or ingots or gold and silver utensils, that is personal luck.
Before the people could react from Li Mu's words, the copper coin ingots had already smashed to their heads, and even Zhang County's order was hit on the head for a while, he reached out and touched it, it was a gin cup, and it was one or two heavy, this is ten taels of silver, ten pieces of money! Even if he is a county magistrate, this is a lot of money.
The people around him have gone crazy, and they are all lying on the ground to pick it up, even the master is no exception, and he grabs ingots with the officials. Zhang Xianling was afraid of face, it was not good to be so indiscriminate, but he secretly put the gin cup into his arms, and stepped on a big ingots next to him, and was about to bend down to pick it up, but suddenly saw that there were several people nearby who did not bend down like him, which seemed very strange, there are still people who don't love money these years? When did such a character appear in Mayi City?
Just as he was shaking his mind, suddenly the sound of 'Xiu Xiu' was endless, and then the screams rang out, the people scattered and fled, Zhang Xian Ling looked up, and saw that the sergeants who had just carried the box had an extra crossbow in their hands, and it was a crossbow that was fired in bursts, and the three-inch-long crossbow arrows were shot in succession, heading straight for the few people who were standing. And the few people who were standing did not stand still, and also took out a crossbow arrow, but their crossbow arrows were obviously inferior and could not be fired continuously, and only a few arrows were fired, and they were shot into hedgehogs. And the arrows they shot were also blocked by the sergeant's arm shield.
Zhang Fa was secretly frightened, why is this Hou Ye so temperamental? Do you have to die if you don't pick up his money?
Zhang Xianling was almost frightened, and knelt on the ground, and the people also learned from it, and they all knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move.
"What are you doing here, guys? Ben Hou didn't mean to hurt everyone, you see, these people who died, are they our people from Mayi? ”
Everyone looked at it, and sure enough, they were all fresh faces.
"These people, they are Ben Hou's opponents, they are mixed in the crowd, they want to assassinate me. Ben Hou got rid of it, buried it, everyone should pick up money and pick up money, there are a lot of them on the ground, if you don't pick it up, it's someone else's. ”
When the people heard this, they forgot about the dead and threw themselves into the 'money war'.
Li Mu came down from the city wall, Zhang Fa hurriedly greeted him, and the scene of crossbow arrows flying together really scared him. He barely held back his fear, and hurriedly pleaded guilty: "Master Hou, the supervision of the lower officials is not strict, so that he doesn't know that he has entered the city, he really deserves to die." ”
"I don't blame you, I recruited them." Li Mu wrote lightly: "It's just that they want to be blind, if Ben Hou's life is taken away by them so easily, it will be a fart." The order goes down, before dinner tonight, at least three families in each family will protect each other, find out the living and interrogate them strictly, and those who can't tell the way will be handed over to General Su Lie, whom you saw yesterday, and he will deal with it. ”
Zhang Fa didn't dare to breathe, swallowed and spat nervously, and for a long time, he held back a 'obedience'.
