Chapter 32 Dong Erjun PK Tiger and Leopard Riding (Middle)
PS: Sudden thunderstorm, worried about power outages, first put the good code up. Less, excuse me)
The gilded carriage is covered with coral jadeite, each carriage is pulled by two high-headed horses from Liangzhou and even Persia, even the reins of the cart are made of high-grade brocade from Xishu, the wheels nailed by copper are also wrapped in thick raw cowhide, to ensure that the passengers sitting in the carriage are not bumped, the carriage is already luxurious, and the people are even more amazing, the satin clothes under the ring armor are only worn by servants and ordinary soldiers, and the generals who are the leaders of the three members will not wear these shabby and crude silk that each set of silk can be bought by only one adult for half a year. The clothes they wore under the armor were glowing with a faint golden light, if it weren't for Ai Jin's weak body and the clothes he wore couldn't be too heavy, he would definitely order the craftsmen at home to use pure gold silk to weave clothes and pants, instead of now, only the silk produced in the Tianshan Mountains was mixed with two percent of pure gold filaments to weave a few sets of clothes, and the steel ring armor was lined with gold silk made of heavenly silk, and the defense power was close to terrifying, probably Boss Dong's ghost head knife could not be cut with one sword.
The people of Chenliu were stunned to watch this incredibly luxurious team come to the front of the city, although Chenliu was once a rich city that the Han could count with his fingers, but in the memory of the gentry of the people of Chenliu, there was no army that was luxurious to this extent, the beef and mutton jerky only dug out the middle of the most essential cooking and threw it away, the hot linen towel to wipe the face was only used once and thrown away, and even the feed for the horses was all the same divine rice, such a style, even in the heyday of the original Chenliu, there was no rich merchant family that could do it.
Seeing such a love letter, Chen Liutaishou Zao, who came out to greet him in front of the city gate, couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, although Zao only knew that all the money spent was out of the pocket of the baby son of one of the richest men in the Han Dynasty, but it was extravagant to this point, and he was used to seeing the ruin of the Central Plains' economy and people's livelihood this year, Zao Yi was still disgusted in his heart.
"The jujube is too well guarded, I haven't seen it for a year, and I'm getting more and more energetic." Dong Chong got out of the car with a smile, his drunk body shook and hugged his fist at Zao, and said: "The last general will be ordered by His Royal Highness King Kang to come to Chen Liu to transfer grain to Luoyang, His Royal Highness King Kang's will, I don't know if Zao Taishou has seen it?" "Zao Youxin said that you are not nonsense, I didn't receive an order, can I take the gentry of the whole city out to meet you?
Zao Yi was about to be polite, Dong Chong's body was crooked, Zao Yi hurriedly supported him, and when he looked at Dong Chong again, he was already drunk and snoring and fell asleep, no matter how he screamed, he couldn't wake up, and the two deputy generals of Dong Erjun were already lying on the carriage pedal and falling asleep, only Dong Erjun's special military doctor Mo Zhu could barely hold on - but he saluted the big tree next to the road, Zao Yi shook his head with a wry smile, and helplessly beckoned everyone to carry several generals of Dong Erjun into the city and arrange room accommodation for them.
Dong Chong slept until the next morning before waking up, but he also had a splitting headache, and the beautiful maid who accompanied the army fed him three hangover pills prepared by bad military doctors, Dong Chongcai felt a little better, and sent someone to invite Zaoyi to discuss, and after a while, Zaoyi, who was still sticky to the mud on his feet, arrived, Dong Chong said with a face: "Zao Taishou, are you ready for the food that His Royal Highness King Kang wants?" Ben Jiang must rush back to Chang'an before the twelfth day of the first month, you must not miss Ben General's big event. ”
Zao only hugged his fists and said: "Second General Hui, the food that His Royal Highness King Kang wants can be prepared before evening, please rest assured that the second general." ”
Dong Chong was overjoyed, and hurriedly praised Zao Yi for a few words, "Very good, you did a good job, after my brother becomes King Kang, you will definitely be rewarded." Dong Chong pondered for a while, and then said: "Also, you arrange some civilian labor for me to transport 60,000 pieces of grain, and I don't have enough manpower." "50,000 Hu grains are enough for 1.8 million catties, and Dong Chong's more than 3,000 subordinates are a little difficult to transport grain, but Dong Chongjun's war horses are many, if you use war horses to assist in pulling carts, you can still barely do it, but Dong Erye will inevitably have to work harder, and Dong Erye, who has always been lazy, has the idea of being lazy.
"Second General." Zao Yi guessed Dong Er's thoughts, and said: "Although it is idle in winter, Chen Liulian has been through war, and the people's deaths and injuries have been revealed, and there is not enough manpower, and it also takes a lot of manpower to reclaim wasteland during the agricultural slack, and Zao You really can't spare half a manpower to assist the second general." ”
"Hey, hey." Dong Chongli didn't dare to get angry, and smirked: "Don't worry, you can take a look again, if you can draw out manpower, you can send 1,800 people to help the general." ”
"I can't pull it out." Zao Yi shook his head and said, Zao Yi added, "Second General, please restrain your subordinates a little, the villain knows that they have the habit of buying and selling human beings when they go there, but Chen Liucheng is just when he is in ruins, and he can't withstand any toss." ”
Zao You's words reminded Dong Chong, Dong Chong immediately had a ghost idea in his heart, and sent Zao Yi away with all his good words, Dong Chong casually had some breakfast and hurriedly found Ma Zhuang, Ai Jin and Mo Zhu, several people planned to stop, and immediately took a group of Dong Erjun soldiers to the market, set up a stall and shouted to buy the population, "Come, come, Chang'an Aijia Ma family recruitment, food and accommodation are all inclusive, half a year to send a set of clothes, three meals a day and a meat dish, only five hours of work, live in a single dormitory, the whole family can arrange a large room, come, Come, as long as you put a handprint on this treaty, you can go to Chang'an to enjoy happiness, every strong man has a consistent new money every month, and children and women also have half a new money! There are also many family members of the Ai family and the Ma family who dedicate themselves to the people, and use their happy life after selling to the ears of the people.
Dong Erjun's conditions for the people of Chen Liuli are much harsher than the conditions of Chang'an contractors, but Chen Liulian suffered natural disasters and man-made disasters, although there are some improvements this year, but there are still too many poor people, less than half an hour, the booth that recruits contractors is crowded with poor people on the three floors and the outer three floors, scrambling to press their handprints on the deed of sale, and there are more poor people who rushed to hear the news, crowding the market of Nuoda.
Soon, the blank deed of sale was gone, and it was too late to write, so the black-hearted and rotten bad military doctor invented a new idea, found a bunch of white paper, and wrote the name of the seller in the upper right corner of the white paper (PS: the ancient Chinese writing habit is to write vertically from right to left), and the lower left corner was pressed by the poor people who sold their bodies according to the handprint, and the middle content was later filled. Since then, this blank contract has a new name - the Mo Stop Contract, which has become a killer feature for capital merchants to eat people without spitting out bones, and the notorious Mo Stop Contract that has been handed down to future generations is no less than the Kaul loan in the time and space where Kang Peng is located.
Everything was arranged for his subordinates to be done, Dong Chong and the others made a few cups of tea from Nanban, knocked on Erlang's legs to look for young girls in the crowd, and as soon as they found beauties with development potential, Dong Chong, Ai Jin and Ma Zhuang would unceremoniously call them over, and vigorously encourage them to sell themselves as their maidservants, only the bad military doctor Mo Zhi didn't know where to go.
Dong Chongzheng pulled a girl with a yellow face and thin muscles but delicate eyebrows to agitate like a spring, Chen Liutai Shouzao only heard the news and rushed over, and shouted angrily: "Second general, second general, you are too much." When he rushed in front of Dong Chong, Zao only wanted to pinch Dong Chong's neck, but he didn't do it considering the consequences, glared at Dong Chong and gritted his teeth and said: "Second general, you are too much, you promised the villain to restrain his subordinates not to buy and sell human beings in Chenliu, but now you actually take the lead in ...... and take the lead in this human trafficking business!" ”
Dong Chong let go of the girl and said with a wicked smile: "Jujube Taishou, when will Ben stop talking?" When did you buy and sell human beings? Dong Chong pointed to the poor people in line and said, "Taishou can go over and ask, are they selling themselves?" They just went to Chang'an to work, and in the words of my eldest brother King Kang, they were migrant workers who went to the city to work, and they would have only recruited workers, not bought and sold people. ”
Zao Yi was dumbfounded by Dong Chong's words, but he regretted not asking Dong Chong to recruit workers in Chen Liucheng, and Dong Chong patted Zao Yi on the shoulder proudly, "Zao Taishou, is the grain ready?" If it had been held for a long time, it would have been nothing, but the people who stayed behind Chen were afraid that there would be more people who volunteered to go to Chang'an. Zao was helpless, so he had to rush back to the official office to urge the grain, so as not to wait for a while, and Chen Liutuntian would have fewer people.
It was noon in a blink of an eye, Dong Chong and the others were about to go to dinner, and the bad military doctor Mo Zhi suddenly ran over, ran to Dong Chong and saluted: "Congratulations to the second master, congratulations to the second master, the villain has found another way to make money." ”
"What's the way?" Dong Chong and the others were interested, and Dong Chong hurriedly asked.
"Just now, the villain took a turn in the medicinal herb market left by Chenliu." Mo stopped and said with a smile on his face: "I found that the price of Chen Liu's medicinal materials is very cheap, only one-tenth of Chang'an's, or even one-tenth of Chang'an, and we can make a lot of ......money by selling dozens of truckloads of medicinal materials from here to Chang'an." ”
Mo stopped talking about this and couldn't go on - Dong Chong, Ai Jin, and Ma Zhuang had already raised their middle fingers in front of him, and Dong Chong said disdainfully: "How much can you earn from dozens of carts of medicinal herbs?" Is it enough for you to drink a meal of flower wine? Ma Zhuang also scolded: "With that kind of work, we will recruit a few more contract workers, and everything will come out." Only Ai Jin was more polite, "Don't waste that idle time, Chen Liu doesn't produce bear bile deer antlers, and the bark and grass roots are not worth a few dollars, go, drink with us." With that, the three of them turned around and left.
Mo Zhu has always been a military doctor, and he has a natural affinity for medicinal materials, and he shouted unwillingly: "Second Master, Ma Ye, Ai Ye, those medicinal materials can be equipped with aphrodisiacs." Before the words fell, Dong, Ai, and Ma turned around together, and three different hands grabbed the skinny Mo Zhu at the same time, and said in unison: "Let's go, sell medicinal herbs." ”
Mo stopped not panicking, among the cheap medicinal materials in the Chen Liuyao market, there are indeed a few herbs that are equipped with aphrodisiacs and ** necessary medicinal materials, but the pharmacy must sell a batch of accumulated medicinal materials, the most of which is Croton, the wealthy generals of Dong Erjun naturally don't care about this small money, and immediately buy all of them and load them into trucks.
By the afternoon, Zao Yi had already loaded all the grain into the carriage and cart, and did not leave Dong Erjun to rest for a day, and in the evening he sent Dong Erjun out of Chenliu like sending the plague god, Dong Erjun had recruited more than 8,000 contract workers and dozens of beauties with great development potential, hugging the beauties, and escorting the grain and herbs pushed and pulled by the people to leave, leaving Zao Yi crying in the city and losing manpower.
