Chapter 90 Public Hatred and Private Grudge Vertical and Horizontal
In addition to lean meat, there should be some medicinal materials in the porridge, but Zhu Da didn't care about tasting the taste, and after eating more than a dozen bites in a row, his stomach was not so empty, and his spirit was a lot full, Qin Xiucai went to the side and poured a cup of warm water to send him to drink, which made him feel comfortable.
“....... You fainted early that day, and you couldn't see what was going on......" Qin Xiucai didn't do any foreshadowing, he told straight to the point, and after listening to the other party's words, Zhu Da, who had just relaxed, tensed up again.
Why did the assassins go to a crowded place to do it, killing people here will certainly be discovered by many people, but it is easy to escape after the chaos, and more importantly, the dereliction of duty of the guards also has a reason, no matter whether the guards are really separated from the flow of people or other reasons, what kind of result will be the most important, and no matter how prosperous Zheng Jiaji is, the flow of people is not so dense.
“...... The Yang brother I mentioned with you has already gone to make up for the lack of a thousand presidents, this is a great joy for their Yang family, you may not know, you can be a thousand presidents with the identity of a general banner, but the thousands of households in the guard may not be able to be a ......"
The soldiers and horses of the Daming Guard, in the orthodox year, that is, the time of Emperor Yingzong, could not be counted on, to quell the bandits and civil rebellion, to fight with the Tartar barbarians, real swords and guns, you have to spend money to recruit troops, and the military attaches have to work hard to practice and envelope, so that they can have some combat power and can be counted on.
Originally, the small flag, the general flag, and the first level of the hundred households in the guard were the class of officers, but now these names are at best a grade, representing how much land you can manage, and the benefit is nothing more than deducting land rent, using conscription in vain, and if you want to get rich, you either do business by yourself, or you don't want to be shameless and ruthless, and now what really represents the power and class of the military attache is another system, and the chief of the army, the chief, the general, and the general are the ones who hold the knife in their hands, and everyone wants to give up three points.
The general manager is one hundred to two hundred people, and the thousand is in charge of four hundred to eight hundred people, which is slightly different from place to place, and the sum of the rest of the Zhengding army under a thousand households is not more than two thousand, and there may not be more than dozens of people who kill people with knives, but the total number of people under the hands of the general thousand is all characters who can kill people with knives.
To say that the sum of the thousand is very simple, that is, the military salary, the top is paid down, and they are sent down in seven folds and eight buckles, so calculated, it is far more than the production of acres and businesses in the guard, and now it is quite peaceful, and money is the real uncle, how about you have a knife in your hand, and you are hungry then you are not qualified to show off.
The truth is this truth, but in the border town of Datong, the situation is different, as a thousand and a general, there is a large and small camp in his hand, hundreds of knives and guns, either guarding the fortress at the border pass, or guarding the checkpoint in the town, what are these internal and external passes coming and going? It's all caravans, it's all goods, who can't take a few points in the past, this is a good thing to make money on the flat land, if you have a mind, you can directly follow the trade and trade, which will make more money.
The power and money are much stronger than the guards who dig in the soil, not to mention that the guards are at best a rich man, if they want to have a head, they have to fight in this system, although there is a risk of death and injury, they can make war exploits, go up one level at a time, and then divide one place or even the head town side, and even knight, this is all conceivable, no matter how the children of the martial arts family are corrupted by the wealth and peace, these ideas are always there.
“...... The Yang family already has a guerrilla, Yang Xiong is their family's generation of the force, can directly be a thousand presidents, anyone thinks it is a great joy, a guerrilla and a thousand presidents, two generations can stand, everyone knows that his family will prosper next, and the command makes these people have the ...... who are willing to send their daughters over to be concubines"
Zhu Da likes this kind of dialogue the most, according to the words of the year, that is, the dialogue contains a lot of knowledge points, and his understanding of the system of the guard is very vague now, not to mention the recruitment of soldiers, but from the usual observation and Qin Xiucai's words, it can be concluded that the guard is not the mainstream of the Ming military system at all, and there is another system in operation.
It was precisely because he was immersed in "knowledge" that Qin Xiucai said a few words before he noticed that the other party's tone was a little vicissitudes. Only then did Zhu Da react.
“...... For the position of this thousand presidents, Yang Xiong sent all the business of the salt stack out, and the other party always had to vent his anger because of the heavy casualties in the salt stack......"
Things can be strung together before and after this, although the house is very warm and the bedding is not very ventilated, but Zhu Da still feels a chill in his heart, the Yang family took the business of the salt stack to make an exchange with the other party, in exchange for Yang Xiong's thousand total future, as for Qin Chuan, this person who came up with the idea made the other party grit his teeth with hatred, so he pushed the boat down the river to make a start.
“...... I want to do the business of this health office and Banxian County, I think this set is easy to learn, and I am a sour person who is not easy to deal with, so it is better to kill and have an explanation below, but they asked Ding Baotong by name, saying that this is a good hand in business......"
"Father-in-law, aren't we in danger now?" Zhu Da said in a sullen voice, but he realized that something was wrong when he said it, looking at the reactions of Bo, Yuan Biao and the elders, it should be safe here.
Qin Xiucai smiled, but that smile was not the slightest bit relaxed, he stuffed the corner for Zhu Da, and continued: "Now this house is being guarded by the people of Zheng Patrol, and the martial artists of the salt stack have all been withdrawn, I was killed that day, it is easy to say, but now I am alive and well, the Yang family and the people below can't explain it, and many people have to be brought to the army." ”
Those forty or so horseback guards are a big force in the Qianzong camp, controlling the head of the battalion, stabilizing the morale of the army, and getting what should be taken, it is of great use, but if Qin Xiucai does this wrongly, it will make the people below feel cold, and there will be discussions and complaints in their hearts and even disperse, which is a big trouble for the head of the war camp on the field of life and death.
So Yang Xiong first pushed the matter on the assassin personally, saying that he was seeking revenge on his own, and then took the initiative to come to Qin Xiucai, on the one hand, saying that the people below were not well protected, on the other hand, he gave this salt stack to Qin Chuan, and Qin Xiucai asked for the private salt marketing of Baibao Village and several surrounding villages, and he simply agreed, in addition to these, Yang Xiong also sent a lot of property and made some promises.
“...... It is enough to do these things for the outside to see, and those who know say that his Yang family has done a generous ...... I didn't expect that I ...... my brother for many years, and I have been friends since childhood."
When he said this, Qin Xiucai spoke intermittently, stopped talking several times, and was silent there for a while before continuing.
Zhu Da can understand the other party's emotional turmoil, betrayed by the little brother, Qin Chuan planned so much for this person, but he was abandoned like a shoe, and what is even more heartwarming is that for the safety of his own family, he has to cooperate with the other party to play a brotherly play, and he also wants to fulfill the other party's reputation.
Presumably, Qin Xiucai has no one to talk about these days, so he can only talk to him at this time, and the depression and bitterness in his heart can be imagined.
After saying the words, Qin Xiucai was in a slightly better mood, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "At this time, I really know the current affairs, the Yang family is ruthless now, and the Zheng inspection may not be able to bear it, so that everyone can get by, Commander Liu of the left guard is really ridiculous, his son actually doesn't have the courage to do that Qianzong, and can only be used to exchange the business of the salt stack, it is really better than a pig and a dog!" ”
Seeing that Qin Chuan was getting more and more excited, Zhu Da coughed, stretched out his hand and patted Qin Chuan's back and said, "Father-in-law, you are less than thirty, I am only twelve, the gentleman takes revenge, we are not in a hurry." ”
Zhu Da said very seriously, but a twelve-year-old boy on the hospital bed said this strangely, Qin Xiucai was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing, the melancholy and desolate emotions just now have dissipated a lot in this laughter, Qin Chuan touched the top of Zhu Da's head, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I missed this year's township exam, I have studied hard in the past three years to see if I have any luck on the list......"
After saying this, Qin Xiucai paused, but he smiled and said quite solemnly: "Zhu Da, you are right, the road to fame in the imperial examination is the right way, at least my right path." ”
The speed of the young man's recovery from injury far exceeds that of an adult, and Jiang Langzhong is a person with real skills, medicinal right, massage method, Zhu Da will soon be able to walk on the ground, and it was only at this time that he learned the whole picture of the incident from Qin Xiucai's mouth, and the determination of Datong Zuowei Liu to exchange a thousand total shortages for salt stacks was actually made two days before the assassination.
A thousand total shortage is very precious, can exchange a lot of favors and goods, Shengping salt stack can not be said to be a small business, but compared to this precious official vacancy, it is not enough, the reason why the people of Datong Zuowei gritted their teeth and took it out was because the raid planned by Qin Xiucai was very deadly.
The dead cronies must be appeased, and the losses must be made up, otherwise, the position of the commander of the guard and many things will be in danger, and his own children are indeed unbearable, so he doesn't dare to do this Qianzong, and he doesn't want the martial artists around him to do it, so he gritted his teeth and took it out for exchange.
The Yang family is very decisive and dares to gamble, when the other party took out this Qianzong shortage, he immediately made a decision to hand over the private salt business, but the other party asked Qin Xiucai's life to take the lead but did not agree immediately, the Yang family has a plan in their hearts, the position of Qianzong is very precious, but if this time it is too ugly and the reputation is bad, I am afraid that no one will be willing to work for the Yang family in the future, not to mention that Qin Xiucai is very respected in the private salt system, and the group of people who respect him have a lot of contact and overlap with the backbone of the Yang family, and there are even more scruples about betraying.
But the two sides fought in various businesses, because of Qin Xiucai's strategy and strategy, Datong Zuowei suffered too much, and he really gritted his teeth with hatred, and he couldn't say it if he didn't do it, so the two sides reached a compromise and sent assassins to do it in Zheng's family, and the Yang family would create conditions to kill him, as long as the murderer escaped, he could explain it afterwards, and even if Zheng Patrol didn't guess it, there was no real evidence to blame.
