Chapter 52: Falling into the Well
Wen Juren returned to the mansion and immediately ordered his subordinates to close the door, and at the same time recruited the hundred-person guardian he had secretly cultivated.
It is said that the nursing courtyard is actually a dead soldier, and these dead soldiers are not only strong in martial arts, but also well-equipped.
Everyone is dressed in a cardigan armor, holding a three-eyed gun, carrying a strong bow, carrying a sword at the waist, and the most amazing thing is that they even have a sky-shaking thunder, that is, the most primitive grenade.
"Are the thieves coming?"
At this moment, Wen Juren was hiding in his cellar, and asked the dead man in front of him tremblingly.
"Nope."
"Really?"
"Absolutely."
"Stand down."
Wen Juren heard the dead man's exact answer, and his trembling body gradually stabilized.
He took a sip of tea and stroked the golden pumpkin and silver winter melon in the cellar.
"It's all mine, it's all mine, and no one can take it away..."
Wen Juren muttered to himself for a moment, arranged the dead soldiers, and got up and went to the mansion of the magistrate.
"What? All dead? What about the soldiers who defended the city? Also dead? ”
Shouyang County Ya, Zhixian, County Cheng, the main book, and the inspection were all summoned by the Wenju people.
At this moment, Wen Juren was impassionedly persuading them to continue attacking the Black Tiger Village.
When he said that all the people he brought with him were wiped out, the magistrate jumped up.
With his big belly and a kind of male duck voice, he angrily pointed at Wen Juren and questioned.
Wen Juren was stunned, and his face was a little unpleasant.
"I'll just give you the money."
The magistrate had a gloomy face, stroked his beard, and glanced at the county and the chief bookkeeper with his hands behind his back.
"There is only one red-clothed cannon in this county, even if the nine major towns add up, there are only a hundred, this thing is destroyed, one is missing, it is extremely precious.
The officers and soldiers defending the city exterminated the bandits and died to repay the emperor's favor, although it was a matter of duty, this pension was still a huge amount of money.
Moreover, although these helpers are trying to exterminate the bandits for money, they are actually helpless, and they have many wives and children in their families.
It's two pieces of silver..."
The county magistrate will stand up and say.
"Five hundred thousand taels." Wen Juren didn't say a word, stretched out five fingers and said magnificently.
"If you fight again this time, you must recruit more people, this money and food..."
The master bookkeeper also stood up and said.
"One hundred thousand taels."
Wen Juren did not hesitate and said immediately.
"Oh, tsk, you all have money and food, what about me, we people, life is cheap, we haven't received food for six months."
The inspector stepped on the chair with one foot, put his finger in the teacup and stirred it gracefully.
The patrol inspection is from Jiupin, mainly responsible for investigating the spies, selling illicit salt, and tracking down the fugitives and fugitives.
The inspection is subordinate to the inspection department and is not under the control of the county government, which is also the reason why the Wenju people did not call them before.
"One hundred thousand..."
"No, no, no, shop, I want you to be in the grain shop in Yuxian, we brothers, we can only sell some roads in exchange for money, and we can't even eat enough, I heard that the rice grain in Yuxian County is more than a hundred taels of one stone..."
In fact, there are some industries in the private inspection area, and even they sell illicit salt, so he is more interested in shops that can make money.
When Wen Juren heard this, his face changed and changed.
"Okay."
Wenju has gone mad, he must recapture the Black Tiger Village, and those letters must not fall into the hands of others.
This kind of thing is the safest in your own hands.
"Ahem... This matter, if it wins, it will be fine, but if it is defeated at this moment, if it is spread to Taiyuan Mansion, I am afraid that Shangguan will blame it, and then..."
The magistrate picked up the tea and tasted it, and stopped talking halfway through the conversation.
The corners of Wen Juren's eyes jumped, and he squinted and looked at Zhixian resentfully.
"What does the magistrate think?"
"Ahem... This red-coated cannon has to be purchased from Nanzhili to replenish it, this Nanzhili, the mountain is high and the road is far away, and the red-coated cannon is too heavy and difficult to transport, and it is difficult to transport it back without 50,000 taels. ”
"Okay, it's up to you."
"The Shangguan of Taiyuan Mansion needs some money to make a few points, so let's prepare fifty thousand taels."
"Okay."
After Wen Juren finished saying a good word, he turned around and left with a gloomy face.
He never thought that these guys would take advantage of the fire to rob.
You must know that these businesses done by Wenju people have a profit with them, especially the county.
The magistrate took the most.
"Wait."
Wen Juren was just about to cross the threshold, and the inspection suddenly spoke.
"The brothers are out all the year round, sleeping in the open air, eating chaff and vegetables, if you go to the county seat, you have to have food.
If there is no food, will it be difficult for the brothers to plunder the people? ”
Wen Juren looked up at the inspection in a daze, and he laughed.
"Okay, I'll take care of your food and drink."
"Hahaha... Okay, come on, let's get food. ”
The inspector waved his hand and beckoned his subordinates to follow Yu Wenjuren, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like he was holding him hostage.
Wen Ju's face was amiable, and his heart was already boiling with murderous intent.
"Ahem... This, the amount of money and food is huge, master, go back to the house and bring some family members to take care of them, so as not to be taken away by thieves. ”
The magistrate coughed twice pretendedly, and beckoned the master to call someone to go, and the county magistrate, the chief secretary also went down to call someone.
This means that they must get money and food today, otherwise it will be even more difficult for the Wenju people to attack the Black Tiger Village again.
Wen Juren smiled even more kindly.
He bowed and made a gesture of please.
"Come on, let's go to my house together to get money and food, and all the family members can gather together to protect them, so as not to be robbed."
It just so happened that one of my cows fell ill today, and I killed him, so let's try fresh beef together. ”
The imperial court forbade the killing of cattle, but the gentry and wealthy businessmen could always find a way to kill and eat, after all, they were not short of money.
The group followed Wen Juren to his mansion.
Wen Juren opened the cellar with a smile and led everyone in.
"Recently, I have created a lot of pumpkins and winter melons with gold and silver, and another jade Ruyi, the county magistrate is well-informed, and I also invite you to appreciate and appreciate."
Wen Juren introduced it while leading the magistrate into the depths of the cellar.
Zhixian likes gold and jade things, and he takes the jade Ruyi handed over by Wenjuren, and can't put it down.
"Hahaha... Earlier, I just heard that Wenju people are a big businessman, and today I see that it is really extraordinary, hahaha..."
The inspector grabbed a handful of silver ingots, stuffed four or five ingots into his arms, and reached out again to grab them.
"Hurry up, load it up, load it up..."
The county clerk and the chief bookkeeper instructed the servants to pack the gold and silver into boxes so that they could be carried away.
They didn't even notice it, and just as they were loading the gold and silver, the Wenju people quietly retreated.
Wen Juren walked out of the cellar, snorted disdainfully, and said indifferently: "You have participated in the occupation of the field, and you are even more active than me in betraying the country."
Today, seeing that I was defeated and fell into the well one by one, are you deceiving me that I have no official position? ”
There are no vacancies in the imperial court, and the lifting of people is just a lifting person.
"Kill!"
Wen Juren gave an order, and the dead soldiers who had been hidden by him before came out one after another, and slaughtered the people who entered and exited the cellar one by one with indifferent faces.
"Murder!"
"Wenju is reversed!"
"Bang Bang Bang~"
"Ah~"
The dead gave priority to the housekeepers and inspectors who cleaned the ground, and since most of the people were in the cellar, the cleanup went smoothly.
After clearing the ground, the dead soldiers lit the earth-shattering thunder and threw it into the cellar.
The earth-shattering thunder exploded violently in the narrow and enclosed space of the cellar, and for a while, screams and wails rang out.
Zhixian shuddered when he heard the explosion, and dropped the jade Ruyi in his hand to the ground and broke it in half.
It's been such a time, he didn't think about what happened, but picked up the two halves of jade Ruyi distressedly, and sighed and tried to splic.
