Chapter 440: The Silver Ticket to Bluff

When Zhehan saw the number on the silver ticket, he felt that his mind was blank, and the blood in his whole body rushed to his brain, and then his eyes rolled and an upside-down onion was planted from the horse.

This scene stunned everyone, and even they didn't expect this to happen.

He just showed Zhehan a silver ticket of one million taels with him, that is, he told him that no matter how much silver he was rewarded in the end, he could afford it.

It is expected that Zhehan has never seen a million taels of silver in his eight lifetimes, he was completely stimulated by the number on the silver ticket, one million taels of silver, if it is put together, it will not be piled up?

He was shocked and stimulated in an instant, and as a result, he lost his mind and suffered a stroke.

It's no wonder he's so, you must know that the annual treasury income of the Ming Dynasty is only 2.4 million taels of silver, sometimes it's not enough, these silver needs to pay all the officials' salaries, but also to raise soldiers, but also to relieve disasters, but also to govern the Yellow River, repair waterways or something, it is no secret that the Ming Emperor is in a hurry for silver every day.

Moreover, he actually carried a silver ticket of one million taels of silver, which is equivalent to carrying two-fifths of the wealth of the Ming Dynasty in a year, or rather, this Xiao Qincha is a rich man who rivals the country.

In the final analysis, the coastal wealthy families are the real rich and rival countries, and the eight major families are all like this. This is also one of the important reasons for the determination to go to the coast, a large amount of the country's tax revenue continues to fall into the hands of the coastal tycoons, and this status quo will not change, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

In fact, this is far from all the property, most of his money was given to Zuo Ling and Zhou Dingcheng to buy materials, and Beijing and Nanjing also left some support families and put them in the hands of Pomegranate and Xiao Nier.

As for Zuo Ling and Xiao Nier's children, they are still raised by the Marquis of Wucheng, so they don't need to spend a penny at all, and they send them New Year's silver every year, which is nearly 10,000 taels, plus the annual salary, which is basically the living expenses of the family in Beijing.

So recently, I feel that I am seriously short of silver, and I need to make a big deal to earn some silver to subsidize my family.

Of course, if he says that he lacks silver, he will be scolded to death, and he dares to cry poor and say that he lacks silver when he has more than a million taels of silver? Let the common people live?

But besides, there is really a shortage of silver, and he has pasted tens of thousands of taels of silver in the sixth guard of Jinyi, if it weren't for Zuo Ling's huge profits in the pharmaceutical business, and he would not be able to continue to paste silver into it.

Not to mention that he had a hunch that the emperor's support for him was coming to an end, and soon he would have to worry about the military salaries and allowances of more than 20,000 soldiers under him, which was a burden that the emperor felt he couldn't afford, could he afford it?

All this requires silver, and it is a huge amount of silver, and the trip to the desert is a difficult journey for the silver in the final analysis.

"Lord Jehan."

"Lord Jehan?"

The Tatar cavalry panicked, and Zhehan's lieutenant helped Zhehan up and sat on the grass, but saw Zhehan foaming at the mouth, his eyes closed, and he was about to die.

"Your Highness Qincha, what kind of demon method did you use to harm Lord Zhehan." Jehan's lieutenant was furious and attacked the situation.

The Tatar cavalry quickly surrounded them.

"What do you want to do? One more step forward to die. Ji Chang covered the situation with his body, pulled out his saber and shouted.

The cavalry of the Jinyi Guard also dismounted, drew their sabers and prepared for foot combat.

In the dense grassland, it is better to fight on the ground on horseback, especially since these guards have practiced the step combat formations such as the one-word long snake formation and the Liangyi Yin-Yang formation.

"No one is allowed to move." And he yelled on the horse.

At this time, the two armies faced each other, and the flames of war were about to break out.

More than 100 miles away, in a vast hilly area, the hooves of more than 2,000 war horses resounded like rolling thunder on the grassland.

More than 2,000 war horses converged into 36 strands, stirring up 36 pillars of wind on the ground, like 36 whirlwinds rolling.

The herdsmen in the distance knew that this was a swarm of bees pouring out of the nest, and their symbol was these thirty-six whirlwind pillars of wind, and the herdsmen were so frightened that they drove the sheep far away, secretly chanting Amitabha Buddha or praying for the blessing of eternal life, and they also prayed for someone in their hearts, thinking that someone who was going to be unlucky again.

As long as you are targeted by a swarm of people, you will basically be ruined, and those who can survive in the end are the ancestors who accumulate virtue, and generally there are no bones, not to mention the goods.

Fortunately, people who swarm bees are more ethical than flying on grass, and generally do not attack herders in a single family, at most sometimes a few sheep, and will pay generously. Although they do not deliberately kill people, their blades do not have long eyes, and they often fly flesh and blood everywhere they pass.

The swarm of people moved in a semicircle, and finally came to a hilly valley and entered the ambush position in advance.

Their men had always followed the convoy to the left and right, and had been reporting to their leader that there was any other information about the whereabouts of the convoy, so they knew that they would rest for the night in a tribe dozens of miles away, then replenish water and food, and then continue their journey the next morning.

Moreover, the only way to go is through this hilly area, and it is necessary to pass through a section that has become a yellow sand wall.

This is a pre-selected ambush position for a swarm of bees.

Huangsha Yuan is a depression in the shape of a wine tank, surrounded by steep hills and rock valleys, only the middle is flat, and the entrance and exit can only allow two horses to pass through, which is really an excellent ambush location.

The Yellow Sand Valleys are famous in the grasslands, and they are also a great place to escape from the sandstorms of the plateau.

The sandstorms on the Loess Plateau are not just yellow sand covering the sky and obscuring the field of vision as in the mainland, but are comparable to the disaster of a hurricane at sea, which has the power to move mountains and fill valleys.

After a sandstorm, a mountain peak may suddenly rise in the original flat area, the original hilly area may become a plain, and the flat land may also become a rock ravine with a knife and axe. Witnessing all this, it really feels like a sea of vicissitudes.

After entering the selected ambush position, the boss of the swarm was more relieved, in his mind, as long as the convoy entered Huangshayuan, the annihilation of the whole army was inevitable, because there was no escape route at all.

He just felt that it was a pity, and he had to leave the diplomatic corps untouchable, otherwise the diplomatic corps of the Ming Dynasty would be annihilated, and the prestige of the swarm would be even louder on the prairie, and maybe the king of Alta would recruit them.

"Hmph, the people who fly on the grass still want to drink a sip of soup under our hands, so let them eat sand." The one-eyed dragon waited until all the swarms were ambushed, and then looked at the situation around him and laughed wildly.

He thinks the same as the bosses of the swarms, as long as they don't want to, and none of the centaurs want to escape.

He even wondered if he would simply stop doing it and kill Zhehan's men and horses together?

However, if you really want to move the people of Zhehan, it will not be to poke the hornet's nest, but to provoke the Lord of Hades, and the king of Alta will destroy them even if he goes to heaven and earth at that time.

So this thing can only be thought about, and it must not be done.

Besides, riding on a horse, he looked at Zhehan's lieutenant Zhengse and said: "This general, I just showed General Zhehan a silver ticket, lest he suspect that I can't get the silver, and I didn't expect him to become like this." ”

"Silver ticket?" Jehan's lieutenant Monno didn't believe it.

He thinks that they must be using demon methods, these generals have contact with the upper echelons of the White Lotus Sect, and they know that the people of the White Lotus Sect are good at using various demon methods, and they also know that there are more people in the mainland of the Ming Dynasty who are good at using demon methods to harm people's souls.

So he thought that besides, he must have used some kind of soul talisman, and Lord Zhehan must have fallen for his demon spell.

"If you don't believe me, I'll show you. But please don't get too excited. Besides, he laughed.

He said as he pulled out the silver ticket again.

"Don't." Monno hurriedly rode his horse back and took a step, lest he fall for the demon spell of the worse.

"How can you know that what I showed to General Zhehan was just an ordinary silver ticket, not a demon method?" Besides, he frowned.

"You go up and have a look." Monno gestured to one of his men.

If this subordinate is like Zhehan again, then it can be determined that he is using demon magic, in which case he can only order the attack.

The subordinate rode over with some trepidation, and after thinking about it, he covered the number of silver tickets with his hand, and just showed him the name of the money bank that issued the silver tickets, and of course the style of the silver tickets could be seen clearly.

The subordinate looked at it again and again, then turned back and confirmed, "My lord, it is indeed a silver ticket, but I can't see the number." ”

"Why did you cover the middle part with your hand and not show it to him?" Monno remained skeptical.

Besides, he smiled helplessly: "You people are narrow-minded, and you can't stand the stimulation of the number on my silver ticket, I'm afraid that this person will also be stimulated like General Zhehan." ”

"Are you kidding that we haven't seen silver?" Monno was enraged.

"I'm not laughing at you, you're sure you've never seen so much silver in your life, otherwise General Zhehan wouldn't be like this." Besides, I had no choice but to tell the truth, although it was too hurtful to say so.

The guards of the brocade guard all laughed, they didn't know how rich their adults were, anyway, some were silver, only rewards, and they had never been shorter than them.

"Well, you Mingren have a lot of silver, but I don't know how much we have robbed over the years, what else is there to brag about?" Monno couldn't stand this kind of contempt and said proudly.

"What you rob is given to you, and behold, it is not easy for you to come by, lest you starve to death in the middle of the road." Besides, he was also angry, and said-for-tat.

Ji Chang saw that this was not a problem, so he persuaded: "My lord, since he doesn't know what to do, let's show him, even if he is crazy, it has nothing to do with us, we can only blame them for their own shallow eyelids, and their minds are not firm enough, and they can't stand the stimulation of too much wealth." ”

The people in the Jinyi Guard all laughed, and Ji Chang's words were enough to damage, which was equivalent to scolding these Tatar cavalry for being poor ghosts.

"Okay, but be warned, the amount on the silver ticket is very large, so don't be frightened, take three breaths first, and then tell yourself to be calm, calm, and calm again." Besides.

Monno couldn't stand it anymore, so he rode over and said loudly, "What kind of fame, show me." ”

"Are you sure you don't have to risk it for you?" And laughed.

"Don't talk nonsense, as long as it's not a demon law."

"I'll say okay first, I'm not responsible for anything that happens." Besides.

"You don't have to take any responsibility, I said, as long as it's not a demon law, I won't be afraid of any stimulation." Monno yelled in a fit of rage.

Besides, he sighed, and had to let go of his left hand, which was holding the number of silver tickets, to show Monno clearly.
