Summary of the previous chapter: After "bargaining", Ma Xiaoquan said that Zhang Tianhao was moved, first, Zhang Tianhao promised to spend money to ransom people, and second, he waited for Ma Xiaoquan's "wild landscape" cooperation plan

++++++++++++++++++ Li Qinghan's tall figure should be close to one meter seven if measured according to the measurement method of modern society.

It has been scientifically proven that if you grow more than five centimeters in height, you will gain 8 to 15 pounds in weight.

Li Qinghan was not the kind of woman who looked like a thin and hemp pole, on the contrary, she had what she should have, and there was nothing that she shouldn't have.

"Is it heavy?" Li Qinghan cautiously stepped on Ma Xiaoquan's waist with one foot and asked.

Ma Xiaoquan held his breath and said, "It's not heavy, but don't push too hard~"

"Oh~" Li Qinghan nodded, stood on the bed, held the lintel with one hand, supported with one foot, and gently massaged Ma Xiaoquan's waist with the other foot.

Feeling Li Qinghan's heartfelt massage, Ma Xiaoquan felt very comfortable.

"Well, it's so comfortable~~ Qinghan, your hands, oh no, your feet are so clever~~" Ma Xiaoquan praised.

Li Qinghan's face flushed: "Don't speak, otherwise what if you get angry?" ”

"Yes yes yes, hey hey hey ~ ~"

At this moment, a newspaper came from outside the door, saying that the Zhang family had sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that it would be delivered to Ma Xiaoquan in person.

Li Qinghan slowly retreated, Ma Xiaoquan sat up, took the letter sent by the Zhang family and read it, and said with a smile: "Zhang Tianhao really believes in his word, well, the 600,000 taels of gold, he has already started to raise~"

Li Qinghan came to Ma Xiaoquan, Ma Xiaoquan handed the letter to Li Qinghan, and after Li Qinghan also read it, he said: "Ma Xiaoquan, 600,000 taels of gold, this is a huge amount, you know, these 600,000 taels of gold are the taxes of the Daimyo Dynasty for several years." ”

Ma Xiaoquan sighed: "Yes, now it seems that the background of the Zhang family is far more terrifying than I imagined, rich and rivaling the country, hum, the Zhang family is afraid to build a city with gold and silver, I estimate that it is possible." ”

Li Qinghan asked, "I just don't know where the 600,000 taels of gold are?" Is it in the city of Beijing? So how do we take it? ”

Ma Xiaoquan said: "Zhang Tianhao's letter also stated that if 600,000 taels of gold can be exchanged for silver, they will be exchanged for silver~"

"Huh? Isn't that more? Beijing City is so big, and it is difficult to say that it is difficult to take out so much silver rashly. ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "Don't worry, Qinghan, you are so worried, presumably Zhang Tianhao is much more careful than us, what he said about exchanging silver, it must be exchanged in different ways, well, the silver ticket must be counted, but if he gives us a silver ticket, except for the part that buys ordnance and materials to support Ning Yuan, you can pay the bill directly with the silver ticket, and we must cash it all out, um~~ This matter, I'm afraid we will have to keep us busy for a while." ”

Li Qinghan nodded: "Ma Xiaoquan, what are you going to do?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan thought for a moment and said: "In the matter of money, I still have to ask Uncle Tong to come over to help, Qing Han, go and invite Uncle Tong~"

"Good~"

Two days later, the Zhang family secretly sent 400,000 taels of gold equivalent silver tickets to Ma Xiaoquan's hands, Ma Xiaoquan took the silver tickets and did not stay, and immediately sent his henchmen to start the procurement of various ordnance materials. Zhang Tianhao also knows.

In addition, another 200,000 taels of silver equivalent to silver Ma Xiaoquan asked Zhang Tianhao to pay cash instead of silver bills, and Zhang Tianhao deployed the finances of various places in his home overnight and collected this huge amount of money 10 days later.

200,000 taels of gold equivalent silver, not only a large amount, the scale of the packing is also very large, Ma Xiaoquan and Zhang Tianhao agreed to pay in Hebei, at the same time, he visited the trustee Ma Tong personally transported this huge amount of money directly to Ningyuan, Liaodong

Zhang Tianhao was amazed at Ma Xiaoquan's handling of this money, he originally thought that Ma Xiaoquan wanted money to spend for himself, but now it seems that his mind is still for Ning Yuan's parents and brother and sister-in-law, thinking of this, Zhang Tianhao's heart is also a lot fixed.

Zhang Tianhao actually didn't know that the place where Ma Xiaoquan transported the 200,000 taels of gold equivalent silver cash was the strange place where his Ma family was stationed near Ningyuan.

Two days ago, my brother Ma Yuan sent a letter, in which he explained that the army had completely controlled the place, and the governor had handed over the place to Ma Ruiqing to guard, and now the Ma family was actively recruiting troops and horses for training in the name of resisting the Jurchens, and basically stabilized the situation nearby

The money has been paid, and Zhang Tianhao naturally wants to see his son, daughter and in-laws.

Ma Xiaoquan had already prepared everything, of course, he waited until a month later before he successively put Zhang Yi and Zhang Jing back to Zhang's house, as for Lu Zhan, Ma Xiaoquan did not plan to be so cheap.

Zhang Tianhao also knew the grudge between the Ma family and the Lu family, anyway, he worked hard, and he didn't feel guilty in his heart, but he also settled Ma Xiaoquan, just don't hurt Lu Zhan.

Ma Xiaoquan agreed to Zhang Tianhao, but if he doesn't hurt, he won't hurt, and he is angry, Ma Xiaoquan is still very interested.

Another few days passed, and the people of the Lu family couldn't hold it back, so they personally came to ask Ma Xiaoquan for important people.

Ma Xiaoquan either closed the door and disappeared, or hid directly in the heavenly and earthly clubhouse, anyway, he didn't meet with the people of the Lu family.

The people of the Lu family were anxious, and spent a lot of money to buy Tian Ergeng, and asked Tian Ergeng to be the master and release Lu Zhan.

Tian Ergeng is also in a dilemma, don't help, Lu Shilang and his father-in-law (Wei Zhongxian) have a good relationship, and they are both comrades-in-arms in the same trench (focusing on dealing with Ma Xiaoquan), help, this matter was personally ordered by the emperor to make Ma Xiaoquan fully responsible, and if he interferes so rashly, I am afraid that he will be retaliated by Ma Xiaoquan.

Tian Ergeng is Wei Zhongxian's righteous son, Wei Zhongxian once told him that Ma Xiao had a terrible fire man on his body, although he had never seen it, but the expression of his father-in-law when he said this made Tian Ergeng unforgettable for a long time.

After comprehensive consideration, Tian Ergeng returned the Lu family's gold and silver, saying that he could not do anything.

The Lu family had no choice but to come back again and beg Ma Xiaoquan to release him.

This time, Ma Xiaoquan met with the people of the Lu family.

After touching the big wall, the tone of the Lu family also softened, and after sending a lot of money, Ma Xiaoquan agreed to release people, but Ma Xiaoquan also said that he did not have the final say on releasing people, and he had to ask the emperor to play.

As soon as the people of the Lu family heard that there was a drama, no matter what, as long as they could save the head of the family, they could do anything

The next day, Ma Xiaoquan took all the gold and silver sent by the Lu family to the Forbidden City Yangxin Hall to meet the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao.

Zhu Youzhen happened to be by the emperor's side, and when he saw that Ma Xiaoquan led a few subordinates to bring several boxes of gold and silver, he asked: "Ma Xiaoquan, where did you get this money, could it be that you didn't use up your support for Ning Yuan some time ago?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said: "Back to the prince, this money is used by the Lu family to redeem Lu Zhan, I don't want any of it, I took it all." ”

Zhu Youzhen looked at his brother Zhu Youxiao with a smile, Zhu Youxiao shook his head and said: "Well, Lu Zhan seems to have made a lot of money over the years, then Ma Aiqing, you say, what to do with this money?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan said respectfully: "Your Majesty, in Weichen's opinion, all this money has been filled into the treasury, and now that Ningyuan is constantly fighting, it must not be able to be finished in one or two years. ”

"Hmm~~" When Zhu Youxiao heard Ma Xiaoquan, he clapped his hands happily and said, "Okay, Ma Aiqing is worthy of being my confidant and loyal minister, then okay, all this gold and silver will go into the treasury." So Ma Aiqing, do you want to let Lu Zhan go or not? ”

Ma Xiaoquan said: "Your Majesty, Lord Lu is also a servant of the Criminal Department no matter what, and he has worked a lot for my Daming Jiangshan over the years, this time, Weichen seems to have ended here, as for the joke that came out before, Weichen figured it out, as long as it is for my Daming Jiangshan, it doesn't matter if Weichen suffers a little sin and is infamy." ”

"Okay~" Zhu Youxiao patted the armrest of the dragon chair, stood up and said, "Ma Aiqing, you did a good job, then let Lu Zhan go, um, but he can't be cheap, he has made a lot of money over the years, so punish Lu Zhan for two years." ”

Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "Your Majesty, although there are not many years of Yulu, but if you are punished, Lord Lu will definitely find another way to get it back, and it is only a lot more. ”

"Hmm~~" Zhu Youxiao looked at his younger brother Zhu Youzhen, Zhu Youzhen nodded, indicating that he agreed with Ma Xiaoquan's words.

"Okay, then I'll make an order~~"

In the afternoon of the same day, Lu Zhan was released, and he was still a second-grade criminal squire, and he had a lot of money, but the emperor got that holy decree, which made Lu Zhan very depressed.

He is a second-class official, carrying a broom to sweep the palace compound for half a year, and he is not allowed to ask for leave to replace him, which is really a shame to throw home.

"Ma Xiaoquan, I hate you to death, I, Lu Zhan and you, are incompatible~~" Lu Zhan scolded angrily in his heart

Ma's house, in the study.

"Ah sneeze~" Ma Xiaoquan rubbed his nose and muttered, "Why is who scolds me again?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan's side, Dongfang Qingxue grinded and said, "In my opinion, it must be Lu Zhan~"

"Mmmmmmmm, it must be Lu Zhan~Definitely Lu Zhan~" Another person came in the study.

"Frost Maiden?" Ma Xiaoquan smiled, "What is the situation between the two of you today?" ”
