Shi Shiran, the famous master of the punishment, stepped forward, took out a tie that had been prepared a long time ago in his sleeve, and slowly read it to Boss Wang who fell to the ground.

Boss Wang's charges are: 1: Colluding with Tatars to resell prohibited commodities and calling them enemies. Second, colluding with the Tatar secret communication song, it is called collaborating with the enemy. Third, colluding with bandits and subsidizing swords, guns, horses, and food is to seek rebellion. Fourth, bullying and dominating the market is for bullies. Fifth, the killing of slaves is to kill and injure human life. Sixth, robbing the people's daughters is for the sake of bringing disaster to the township. Seventh, there are bribes, eight 、、、、, etc., there are as many as 20 articles.

In fact, it's not too much, it's a crime of colluding with the Tatars to sell war materials to him, which is the crime of exterminating the nine clans, where else do you need it? But it's not a year or two to do this by yourself, and the county has not eaten less filial piety, why did he suddenly lock himself up and ask himself about his capital crime? I was puzzled, but when I saw the silent squire rich Jia, everything understood.

I was the first to be called to donate, and now it's not those crimes that have been convicted, but the heart of the county, which is an example of killing chickens and monkeys, thinking of this for a while, I really lost all my thoughts, and I regret that I missed my life for a momentary calculation. As the saying goes, the county order of the broken family is not the beginning.

The so-called trial is just a formality, and it is really difficult for those swordsmen and pencies, who are just ready to sort out all the evidence and evidence of Boss Wang's crimes overnight, and there are even some witnesses.

In the end, because the war is about to start, to avoid the future war between the Wang family and the rebels outside the city should be outside the city to steal and sell the county, so the special case, the crime committed by Boss Wang is heinous, but Zhang County Order still has a trace of favor, for the sake of filial piety in the past, the verdict is as follows, Boss Wang himself was escorted to the vegetable market on the same day to ask for beheading, confiscated the family property and rushed to the public, the man in the family was sold as a slave, and the woman was an official prostitute. Without waiting for Boss Wang to justify, he sealed his mouth with a strip of cloth, escorted to the execution ground by the soldiers, and cut it off with a knife.

fabricated charges and cut down Boss Wang, and the entire county was a sensation, the poor are a big part of the people's hearts, and the rich are silent.

It's just that the poor don't know what's going on, but the rich know it, if you want to say something, which rich man's ass is clean? If you really want to call it true, which one hasn't died ten times or eight times? Boss Wang is just a special time, and he will be the wronged chicken. Now I see the power of the county and those swordsmen, just waiting for the performance of these monkeys, a bad monkey will become a chicken with a knife.

In the afternoon of the same day, when several masters took the account books and the government officials to help the idle, dragged the big carts and small cars, and went door to door to collect money and food, the rich gentry were quite enthusiastic, and the middle households were inevitably bankrupt, and the big families were talking about the cars and stones to the warehouses and squares of the county government.

Looking at the room full of silver money and the mountains of grain in the square, Zhang Xianling is now smiling and not seeing his eyes, just circling around these assets, thinking in his heart that he needs more rewards for this battle, how much money is needed, and how much can fall into his pocket.

By the way, how much should the master and officials who follow him run before and after running, and how much should they share now, and now they are still closely following behind them, although they don't make a sound, but their eyes are full of greedy thousands of households, how much should they share?

Although I despise the greed of the thousand households in my heart, I think it is the time for him to sell his life, and he should share some of them, if there are no these thieves with the army to lead the team, those signing Ding family generals will protect the courtyard, although there are also four or five thousand, but it is a plate of loose sand, and it really can't hold this county, once the county town is broken, then he has thousands of silver money, and he can't get half a penny.

So the reluctant Zhang County Ling bowed his hand to the thousands of households standing beside him; "There are thousands of households who bother to take the lead, and the sergeant's arrears for many years are requested to be reported by the adults, and the county will immediately order someone to carry them to the school field to pay the full amount."

When the thousand households heard this, they hurriedly put away their greedy eyes, and hurriedly bowed to Zhang County's order with false affection, although he was a non-civil martial artist, but he had been in the market for many years, and the flattery was also endless, which made Zhang County's order have the pride of being able to write and martial arts for a while, and pointing out the country, so after some use, he waved his hand generously and said: "By the way, this time the city will be entrusted to the generals, everyone works hard, once the war is won, the county will definitely not hesitate to reward you, the county decides, The wartime double salary of this use of soldiers will be paid at the same time. ”

The thousand households were even more happy, once again sycophants, but just staring at the mountains of gold and silver did not move, Zhang Xianling saw that the thousand households were just promising but still did not leave, knowing why, he was very disdainful in his heart, but he couldn't do it, and said with a smile; "Regarding the silver money and rice grain donated by the rich squires this time, there will be some surplus in the rewards after the war, come on." The master in charge of the money and grain immediately came over and waited for the adult's order, "Let's see how much is left?" We don't want it, we all carry it to the thousands of households to buy some wine and meat and eat with their families. ”

The money and grain master pretended to take out an account book and look through it, looked up and said, "I went to the various envoy fees, and there are still 21,000 and 22 taels left,"

"Okay, let's give it all to Lord Qianhu, after all, it's wartime, and we have to rely on the pillar stone of the country to sweep away the stubborn bandits, we can't let the front-line soldiers shed blood and tears."

As soon as these words came out, those officials and masters were slandered at that time, but the thousand households were already in tears, and hurriedly stepped forward again to give the county Zunshen a salute, and thanked the boss for his compassion on behalf of the warriors of the Quanwei Institute.

The county waved his hand magnanimously and said, "Thank me, it's not necessary, but thank the squire fathers and elders who raised money and food for the warriors." At this point, the words changed, and suddenly lowered his face and said in a low but solemn voice: "The old and young people in Hecheng rely on the command of thousands of adults and colleagues to work hard to repay the expectations of the country and the people, if you neglect your duties and slack off the military situation, swallow money and grain, and cause the resentment of the soldiers, resulting in a crisis in the county, don't go up to the peak to investigate, I will first behead you to thank the gentry and the people." ”

When the thousand households heard this, their necks couldn't help but feel a chill, and they bent their waists into shrimps, leaving only Weinuo.

This is really not Zhang Guang scaring the thousand households, driven by the habits and interests of the entire civil official group for thousands of years, it has become a habit to suppress the military ministers lightly, if these thousands of households are really looked at by Zhang Guang unpleasantly, a knife down, it is not impossible to cut it at that time, but it is just to find a far-fetched excuse afterwards, under the cover of those civil ministers, it can also turn big things into small things, and the thousand households are equivalent to dying in vain, and the civil officials who killed the military ministers may also have a good reputation for being outspoken and decisive in the civil official group.

Seeing that the thousand households were frightened, Zhang Xianling changed his face again and said: "However, if you wait for your life, and wait for this war to end, I will definitely be the emperor and report the merits to the generals, and at that time, it will only be the first military merit in the mainland, but it will not be able to run away from you." "Grace and power should be equally important, this is the way to control people.

As soon as the thousands of households heard this, they hurriedly stepped forward and thanked them again and again, and the border land of the Ming Dynasty was on fire for many years, but there were few wars in the interior, so these thousands of households who supported the attack could only eat and wait for death, helping the county officials to urge some people, and they didn't even have the opportunity to kill the good and take the lead, where is there still a military promotion? Just like this Qianhu Lord who is a hereditary martial arts general and a lieutenant, or increase the title of meritorious title of great-grandfather, now when he hears that if he defeats the pole, he can be recommended by the county, and there is no big promotion.

In his heart, he knows the situation of the poles in various places, but it is just a group of helpless and homeless people who have no food, just put down their hoes and pick up wooden sticks, and it is impossible for them to even walk a few more steps if they are hungry. This is a big deal.

Seeing that it was almost time to knock on these thousand households, Zhang Guang waved his hand impatiently and said: "There is not much time, you hurry up and take your subordinates to assign and command those guards who sign Ding Nursing Courtyard to go to the city, so as not to make the county have the slightest crisis." ”

"Thank you for the cultivation and support of the county, the lower officials will work hard to protect the rice fat." Seeing that the county was already quite impatient, he hurriedly retreated, and ordered his soldiers to carry the large and small cages and go back to the barracks.

Looking at the figure of thousands of households leaving happily, Zhang Xianling and the two masters both spit on the ground fiercely; "Phew, the dead army, and the profit with Lao Tzu, what's the reason, when this is over, see how I entertain you." He turned back to the master and said; "How many more?"

The master hurriedly took out the account book and looked at it; "I went to a thousand households to take away the arrears, and then repaired the city and dug trenches, added garrisons, opened up the people's wives and workers, paid the soldiers to sign the township bravery, etc., and paid the soldiers and so on, and returned 150,000 taels of silver, 50,000 stones of rice, and then counted half of the autumn grain tax that should be promised in the city and the drift that should be drifted is about 150,000 stone of grain, and the silver money is 270,000 and another hundred and 100 taels and 1,500 yuan."

"Okay, good, it's really a war drum with a golden tael." Zhang Guang clapped his hands and couldn't help but applaud loudly.

"That's, that's." The master responded with a smile, staring at the proprietor with his eyes. Where does Zhang Xianling know? whispering; "I think this battle will not be over in five or seven days at most, and after deducting the future envoy rewards, there will be a lot left. The upper levels should also pay some envoy fees, so let's spend the day first, and then talk about the rest after the war, you three masters and the county master will each get 2,000 each, and the three classes of officials will each get 500, and the food will be talked about later, after all, everyone has to eat and drink. Do you think so? ”

I also have to point to these local snake subordinates to plan for themselves, and don't be too stingy when you should share the profits. Zi said that it is better to be happy alone than to be happy together, the rules of officialdom are there, and if you want to do a good job in your official position, you can't change it.

"Proprietor Xie, proprietor Xie." Everyone rejoiced and thanked them together.

"Follow me and do it well, there is a chance to make a fortune, hahahaha." Zhang Guang looked at the inexplicable faces of gratitude and laughed proudly.
