Chapter 10 Giving Wealth to Save the Crowd
Bai Yang listened to Jia Xu's words, and slowly had a general plan for the future.
The two discussed for a long time, and felt that Yizhou Changshan's generation was still okay. There are forests in Changshan, bandits are rampant, and soldiers can be trained and hidden. It is not far from centralization, well-informed and easily accessible. There is a chance to develop to the east, closer to the sea, and trade is also easy to develop, which can be attacked and defended. It is closer to the northern Xinjiang, and there will be no war horses in the future, so there are conditions to go north to fight the autumn wind.
Bai Yang planned to send Jia Xu and Zhu Yan to Luoyang with money to buy officials in the next few days, to see if there were any good vacancies in Changshan, and it was best to be the administrative and military supervisor who could be in charge of one place.
Then Bai Yang asked about Sun Chen and the others, Jia Xu didn't hide it, and roughly introduced it to Bai Yang. Then he said, "Lord, Heiyun Village can be of great use, and it is said that it is a bandit in the village, but in fact, it is just some righteous people who are not used to looking down on the official family. Usually never do anything that hurts the heavens and reason, but now there is a shortage of food and money in the village, and the brothers in the village do not think about robbing passers-by. ”
"This time, we also came out to buy some food in the county town to save the emergency, but because we bought a lot of food, we were framed by traitors, saying that we wanted to pay a premium for grain. A few days ago, we arrested several brothers who were guarding the grain and put them in prison, and we are trying to find a way to rescue them these days. It's just that the official bastards are asking for too much money, and we want to bargain with them, so hurry up and get it out these days, don't spoil people inside. ”
"Well, there's such a thing?" Bai Yang felt that it was also a troublesome matter, and seeing Sun Chen and the others with a face full of embarrassment tonight, it was quite tricky for them to think about it.
"Do you know who's targeting you? How much do they need? ”
"It is Li Cheng, the son of the Li family, a small family in the county, he personally doesn't care when the time comes, but he has an elder brother who is the county lord Bo. The two of them have done a lot of this kind of thing, just to want some money. ”
"In the past few days, the relationship between sending money and leaving has been reduced from the original five hundred taels to two hundred taels. But how can Heiyun Village have so much money, this time they took most of the money in the village and used it to buy grain, and now they have deducted the grain, and the people have also deducted it. During this time, there was no less money to spend on the relationship, and there was not much money left. In fact, Sun Chen and they still think in the past few days, if there is no other way, they can only rob the prison. ”
"I thought it was a matter of what, there was no way to rob the prison, if it was so good, I would go to the prison. Tomorrow I will give you a silver ticket, and you and their brothers will fish them out first. Don't worry about the rest, I'll talk about it after I buy an official position, I'll let him spit it all out. Bai Yang breathed a sigh of relief, it would be good if it could be solved.
That is, a person like him who has a windfall thinks so, if he doesn't have this money, it may be a problem to eat, and sometimes he is really a penny.
However, Jia Xu's ability to talk about five hundred taels to two hundred taels with the other party is already very powerful, and ordinary people who have no power and no power go to talk to the official family, whether you can see others or not is the same thing, which shows that Jia Xu is really powerful.
"Wenhe, you wait here, I'll come when I go." Bai Yang suddenly looked around. As if he remembered something, he said something to Jia Xu and walked out.
It didn't take long for Bai Yang to lead Xiao Er into Jia Xu's room.
"Wenhe, pack up your things and come with me. I asked Xiao Er just now, how many rooms do they have here, I will change the upper rooms for you and Brother Sun Chen, let's go to the third floor to live. ”
"Lord, it's good here, we will have more places to use money in the future, so we don't have to reopen the house for me." Jia Xu has no bottom, and he doesn't know how rich Bai Yang is, and there will be a lot of places to spend money in the future. Besides, just after worshipping the lord, I wanted to enjoy it before I made an inch, but it was not good after all.
Bai Yang didn't think about it so much, such a precious character, it was not easy to fool into his account, how could he not be wronged. "It's okay, it's okay, Bai Mou is like heaven helping, don't worry about some money." As he spoke, he took Jia Xu and picked up the luggage at the head of the bed and walked out, which moved Jia Xu's heart.
Nothing was said all night, early the next morning. Bai Yang got up early and exercised in the courtyard of the inn for a while.
It's been a few days since I came to the Eastern Han Dynasty, and I haven't exercised much deliberately. I did a simple workout today to keep my body in peak condition at all times. If you don't exercise for a long time, you will have a sluggish reaction, after all, the future will not be peaceful, and the body is the capital of the revolution.
Gradually, the sky lit up slightly, and the sound of people walking on the street could already be heard intermittently.
Bai Yang felt that he had almost exercised, wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, and prepared to go back to the room to wash up. As soon as I walked to the door, I saw where Fu Tong and Hu Zhi were, looking left and right, and sometimes muttering something in a low voice.
"Fu Tong and Hu Zhi, are you looking for me for something? Hurry up and get inside. Bai Yang said in a loud voice to the two of them.
Bai Yang's opening startled the two of them, and when they followed the voice, they saw that it was Bai Yang who said happily: "Brother Yang, you got up so early, we have something to do with you, and we are afraid of disturbing your rest." By the way, thank you Brother Yang for changing the room for the sixth brother last night, so you broke the bank. ”
Bai Yang smiled: "Haha......, if we haven't met this night, you will be polite to Brother Yang, this is not good." Let's go in and sit down, I have something I want to talk to you about. ”
The two of them made Bai Yang feel embarrassed when he said it, and after following Bai Yang into the room, he said, "Brother Yang, if there is anything you say, we are duty-bound." ”
In fact, seeing the two of them coming to him, Bai Yang already knew what was going on, but since he came, he didn't have to go to find the two of them.
Bai Yang said: "The two brothers don't need to be nervous, that's the case. I chatted with Mr. Jia for a while last night, and I know that you have brothers who are now in the county prison, so I think that a few of you will take the money to save people back today, so as not to let the brothers be wronged inside. ”
"Brother Yang, do you know everything? Rest assured, we will find a way to get your money back. Knowing that Bai Yang was talking about this, the two of them almost knelt down with joy.
"You don't have to pay it back, you don't have to be polite to Brother Yang, and Brother Yang will be angry if you say that again."
Bai Yang still admires the behavior of these brothers, whether it is from Jia Xu's evaluation or his own contact in the past few days, I feel that these brothers are very real. Especially when he knew that he had a huge amount of money, he didn't have any intention of getting rich, and it can be said that he has a good character. Therefore, Bai Yang also considered what Jia Xu said, and had time to contact other people in Heiyun Village to see if he could include it in his account.
Seeing that the two of them couldn't wait for dinner or something, maybe they were thinking about saving people now, Bai Yang asked them to gather everyone, gave Jia Xu 10,000 taels of silver tickets to save people, and instructed the rest of the money to buy some daily necessities, buy a few clothes or buy some food for Heiyunzhai to bring back. Now that the village has been out of food for many days, and Heiyun Village has taken care of Jia Xu for so long, and now suddenly he abducted the military division of the family, so he should give some compensation.
Next, the people of Heiyunzhai and Jia Xu went to rescue their brothers in prison, while Bai Yang and Zhu Yan went to visit the downtown area of the county after eating breakfast.
After Bai Yang and Zhu Yan came back at noon, they had already seen that everyone had returned to the inn, and more than ten people had been rescued. There were no injuries in the group, but the skin was a little sallow, and at a glance, it was clear that they were starving in prison, which was caused by malnutrition.
In the afternoon, everyone in Heiyun Village went to buy some things, and the next day they set off back to Heiyun Village under the leadership of Sun Chen.
Bai Yang, Zhu Yan and Jia Xu stayed in the county seat of Changshan County, preparing to enter Beijing to buy officials.
