Chapter 363: Jiangnan Journey (15)
Hu Ran laughed and said: "Master Hou said it well, he actually delayed a major national event for some trivial matters, and he really should be punished." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Li Hengbin saw it, and Luo Yi didn't know how many benefits he received from Hu Ran, so he deliberately shielded Hu Ran, deliberately embarrassed him, and said that the national affairs were just fabricated by Luo Yi. If there is really something big, it is really so urgent, Luo Yi will not be so idle these days.
However, as Luo Yi said, if he really delayed the raising of food, Luo Yi could really sue him for the crime of incompetence.
Li Hengbin didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "Okay, the lower official obeys the order, and the lower official will definitely assist the Hou Ye to raise military rations." ”
Luo Yi asked, "Then are you still trying the case of Haoyue Restaurant?" I think it's better to hand it over to Master Hu, he is also the head official of Jiangnan, and he is still the envoy of Jiedu, and he has more than enough to come forward to try such a small case. ”
"No, no, Master Hou, the lower official just said that this case has a lot to do with Master Hu, and he can't try it. I will choose someone from among my staff to try the case on my behalf. ”
"I'm afraid it's not right, right?"
"What does Master Hou mean...?"
Luo Yi said: "There is a temperance to make the adults here, but you have to appoint a small person to judge, how can this be reasonable?" Where do you place the knots? ”
Hu Ran said with a smile: "Actually, this case is a small case, I and Lord Li Hengbin, one is the envoy of the festival, and the other is the governor of the capital, we are all a bit of a fuss in the trial, and the official recommends one person, who must be the most suitable to try this case." ”
Luo Yi said: "Say, who is it?" ”
Hu Ran said: "Guo Fuyang, he is the commander of Wuyang County, and he should try these cases!" ”
"That's a good point."
Luo Yi asked, "Lord Li, what do you think?" ”
Wuyang County Order, and Hu Ran are the same as Hu Ran, a person wearing a pair of pants, let Guo Fuyang try it, isn't it just let Hu Ran try it, Li Hengbin knows this very well in his heart, but he can't refuse, because Hu Ran is right, this case should be tried by Guo Fuyang.
Sighing, Li Hengbin finally nodded and said, "Okay, the case will be tried by Guo Fuyang County." ”
Luo Yi said with a smile: "That's right, don't worry about the case anymore, raise military rations well, and when the military rations are raised, this marquis will definitely ask for credit for you in front of the emperor." ”
"Master Xie."
The county government and his entourage can be said to have gained a lot, solved Hu Ran's matter, pocketed 300,000 taels of silver, and spent Li Hengbin to collect grain, which is also a good thing for the imperial court, after all, the more grain, the better.
called Guo Fuyang and handed over the case to the other party, Li Hengbin reluctantly left the palace.
Leaving Hu Ran and Guo Fuyang, the three of them looked at each other and smiled.
Hu Ran thanked him: "This is all the work of the Hou Ye, the lower officials have thanked the Hou Ye." ”
Luo Yi said: "Don't thank me, thank you for your money." ”
"You will do the rest of the work, remember to transport the silver to the Drunken Immortal Residence."
Luo Yi stood up and said, "Okay, I'm going to leave too, there are still a lot of things to deal with." ”
"The next official will send the Hou Ye."
"No, you don't."
.............
After Li Hengbin went back, he really started to worry, Luo Yi really gave him a problem, that night, he found many grain merchants in Wuyang City, and threatened to buy grain, but the grain merchants couldn't take it out at all, let alone 200,000 quintals, even if it was 20,000, it would take several months to raise it.
Luo Yi said that 200,000 taels must be raised within half a month, which is really deadly.
"What to do? 200,000 quintals, where can I go to find it? ”
At this moment, Li Hengbin has already put aside the matter of Haoyue Restaurant, and he no longer has the heart to ask, compared with raising military rations, it is a trivial matter among small things, not worth mentioning.
Under Li Hengbin, there is a line of commanders, named Sun Yan, who is responsible for assisting Li Hengbin, at this time he said: "My lord, I heard that after Luo Yi arrived in Jiangnan, he contacted those grain merchants and had already purchased grain, I don't know if it's true or not. ”
Li Hengbin said: "I know about this, didn't Luo Yi say it, he has already purchased 100,000 loads of military rations and ordered me to take care of it." ”
"Sun Yu, select hundreds of elite soldiers from the government office, go to the Drunken Immortal Residence overnight, help take care of the grain, and can't make any mistakes."
"Yes."
Sun Yan said with a smile: "This is really strange, the grain of the imperial court should be placed in the restaurant, why doesn't the Hou Ye put it in the mansion, or put it in the National Chamber of Commerce." ”
Li Hengbin said: "You don't know, the Drunken Immortal Residence is Luo Yi's, he wants to put it there, what can we do." ”
"Alright, stop talking nonsense, let's send troops quickly."
"Yes."
In fact, it doesn't matter where you put it, the important thing is that you don't have an accident.
Originally, Li Hengbin also thought that Luo Yi was responsible for the food in the Drunken Immortal Residence, and there would definitely be no accident, but Li Hengbin later thought that since Luo Yi said that, then the responsibility would fall on him, and if something really happened, then he would not be able to escape the blame.
"Regarding the matter of food, I will find another way, if it really can't work, I will go to Hu Ran, he must have food in his hands. For the sake of the big picture, he won't fail to help. ”
Sun Yan asked, "What did the lord say about the military rations of the Jiangnan military camp?" ”
"yes, can't it be used? The military rations in the Jiangnan military camp have always been inexhaustible, and it shouldn't be a problem to call 200,000 yuan, right? ”
Sun Yan smiled bitterly, he really didn't understand, when was it, Li Hengbin was still counting on Hu Ran.
Sun Yan said: "Two hundred thousand... If you put it together, you can get it together, but will Hu Ran help, this is not a legitimate way, and he has to take responsibility. ”
Li Hengbin knew that in the matter of Haoyue Restaurant, he had offended Hu Ran, and wanted to expect him to help, but I was afraid it would not be so easy. So, as he said earlier, this is no solution.
Before implementing this method, he had to make other efforts, hoping to raise more military rations within half a month.
Wuyang County Ya.
Hu Ran laughed excitedly: "This Li Hengbin, he still wants to fight with me, how about it, fight him himself, within half a month, 200,000 loads of military rations, I'll see where he goes to find it." ”
Guo Fuyang said: "Punishing Li Hengbin is certainly very happy, but Luo Yi's heart is too dark, as soon as he opens his mouth, it is 300,000, and he really opens his mouth." ”
"Besides, how did he know that the adults had 300,000?"
Hu Ran's expression sank, he was extorted 300,000 yuan, and he was really uncomfortable, but after thinking about it carefully, he was relieved again, Hu Ran said: "Don't you understand this, he must have mastered our embezzlement of military food, otherwise how would he know that I have money in my hands." ”
"That's fine, the money is given to him, and the official is not afraid of anything."
"Now I'm in charge of watching the play, to see how Li Hengbin can raise 200,000 taels in half a month, if he can't raise it, he will wait for death."
Guo Fuyang also laughed, and in a blink of an eye, he asked again: "My lord, how should the case of Haoyue Restaurant be tried, I hope your Excellency will show me." ”
"Do you still need me to teach you? A sucker! ”
Hu Ran said: "Of course, I found a few substitutes for the dead ghosts, settled their families, and replaced Liu San." This case should be understood sooner rather than later, so that I can feel at ease. ”
Guo Fuyang arched his hand and said: "Okay, the subordinates will do it." ”
...............
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Within three days, Li Hengbin didn't even raise a load of grain, he had already raised the price of grain to eight cents and one bucket, but still no one sold the grain to him, those merchants wanted to sell it, but they had already sold it to Luo Yi before, and they really couldn't take it out at this time.
