Chapter 5: The Overseer Builds on the Team (2)

“…… Left Battalion C Team Escort Rong Deputy Lieutenant Li * ......? A bearded old man with a green scarf in his hand held a temporary prayer note written on rough linen paper, squinted his eyes at the large bags of gifts on the case, and sat on a chair with a look on his face, a smile on his face, but a tone of disrespect, as if he was playing with the relationship between this official title and the name of the dispatcher.

After a long time, the old man tossed the paper gently......

Lu Xun, who was standing on the side, suddenly sank in his heart-

“…… Take these things back, the old man doesn't recognize this heroic man, and he doesn't dare to accept his courtesy-"

After the old man said such a sentence with a cold face, he turned his face and said to Lu Xun with a smile: "Virtuous nephew, you are on an errand under this kind of person, but it is really difficult for you, whether you are bullied on weekdays or not, it doesn't matter, speak out, the old man is in charge for you-"

Lu Xun hurriedly explained with Xiao again: "Shi Bo is too worried, and Accompany Rong is very good to his nephew. I take care of myself a lot on weekdays, and I will never give my nephew a ...... that I have been wronged by."

The old man shook his head disapprovingly and said, "...... The one in the barracks, eating big and small, pressing down and down, the official level is as if he is an ancestor - I rolled from the sword and have been a soldier for decades, what have I not seen? What grievances are there to put it bluntly, the old man has been guarding the border in Yanzhou for half his life, that is, he has been idle in the past few years, and it doesn't take much effort to pinch him to death a small companion, you are the son of Brother Lu, no matter what, our elder brother has to take care of you, don't worry, what grievances have been suffered, just say ......"

"Thank you! Thank you Seber! The little nephew really didn't feel wronged......" Lu Xun smiled bitterly and hurriedly thanked him.

"Really?" Under the extremely dissatisfied gaze of this uncle, Lu Xun hurriedly said goodbye......

This is already the seventh this morning, which is quite polite......

Lu Xun was the first to go to the house of Yao Sui, the soldier and horse envoy of Wei Pingguan in the Zhou Mi era, and the old guy who couldn't read big words only glanced at the gifts that he had made up temporarily, and then asked himself with a greeting post: "Who is this bastard who asked you to send these messy things?" ”

That's it, although this group of old army leaders has long lost their power and army, but at this moment, in front of Li *, they are still holding their heads high and arrogant, disdainful of this little-known junior.

It seems that it will be very difficult for Weixun's plan to be realized......

Unless...... Unless you kill them all—

This idea suddenly popped up, startling Lu Xun himself.

No matter how these people say it, they are his elders, and they took care of themselves after their father's death - of course, the so-called care is just to let himself have a place to eat in the barracks, and his father, who became the deputy commander, did not bring more shade to himself than Shen Chen's father, who only achieved the rank of deputy commander, both of them entered the army, and then started from small soldiers.

In any case, these people are kind to themselves......

How can I have such thoughts?

Lu Xun blamed himself deeply and returned to Jiedu Mansion.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Wei Xun walking out, and he walked up with a ashamed face and said: "Brother Wei, I'm really ashamed, my brother is incompetent, and I didn't do the errand you ...... explained."

Wei Xun looked at him in a daze for a long time, and grinned: "Sure enough, I thought too easily......"

He waved his hand: "Your Excellency is over there, you can go over-"

……

After opening the Gao family's treasury, Li * suddenly felt dizzy in front of him......

A spacious warehouse of more than 120 square meters was filled with dense sacks, probably because of their age, the plant fibers used to weave the sacks had rotted, and a simple pull of the hand could tear open a large hole, revealing the strings of copper coins that had accumulated dust from years of storage.

From the blackened Kaiyuan Tongbao, to the extremely light and thin small flat money, to the heavy Qianyuan heavy treasure, there are almost all kinds of money. The newest of these coins is the "Qian Heng Chongbao" minted by the Southern Han Dynasty, and the rarest is the Qianyuan coin with the word "Dongguo" printed on the back of the Goryeo imitation by the Goryeo people, which is said to be the first coinage of the Goryeo gods who awakened the Hongshan civilization and nurtured the Yellow River civilization and created the Yamato civilization......

If you take these back to the 21st century, your net worth at the moment should be similar to that of Bill Gates......

Lee* thought with a little malice......

Such a room full of money - no, it's three rooms of money, I'm afraid it has to be hundreds of thousands?

Got rich, really got rich this time......

And that's just the copper coins.

In the secret room of the treasury, there were nearly five hundred catties of gold neatly stacked, and the rest of the various gold and silver utensils, gold and jewelry, which had been scavenged from nowhere, were piled up into a jagged hill so casually......

Like all Jiedu envoy towns, the Gao family's treasury is also public and private, and it is estimated that even Gao Yunquan himself can't figure out how much of these belongings belong to the Zhangwu Army's Jiedu Mansion and Yanzhou officials, and how much belongs to the Gao family's private property......

The law of the twenty-first century is sanctity to protect private property......

Unfortunately, this was the 10th century, and Europe had not yet awakened to the barbarism and ignorance of the Middle Ages, and the fire of the Renaissance would not bloom until a few hundred years later......

Besides, no one can prove that these people's fat and people's ointment are private property—there is no second treasury in this Jiedu Mansion......

The moment he saw these belongings again, Li* had already made up his mind to empty this place, and these money could not be immediately turned into population and food in troubled times, but as long as there were these in his hands, the population and food would roll in. Although, as Li * said to his subordinate officers, he does not have the appetite and strength to swallow the entire Yanzhou in one bite, it is impossible for him to turn a blind eye to this huge property in front of him.

Whether it is the expansion of troops or Tuntian, it all needs a strong and powerful start-up capital, and now don't talk about Li * himself, even Qin Gu gathered all the county orders in the nine counties of Yanzhou to work together, and it is impossible to make up such a huge amount of money in a short period of time.

Li * was dumbfounded, and he was secretly calculating in his heart, and the more he calculated, the more frightened he became.

Qin Gu once calculated the economic account for him, in terms of Fushi, the first county of Yanzhou, the land in the county is about less than 200,000 mu, and there are 7,000 households in Dingkou, and the annual income collected in the county every year is only 3,000 to 4,000 guan at most, even if it is calculated according to the incredibly high grain price now, it is only 3,000 to 4,000 guan at most, and the Gao family father and son have only been in Yanzhou for four or five years, how did they frantically accumulate a lot of property in such a short period of time?

Li * didn't think about this problem, after all, he is not a royal history or a cadre of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and the purpose of his visit to the treasury is not to engage in the construction of a clean government, but after reading this, he did come to a real conclusion, Gao Yunquan is definitely the most greedy and inhumane one among the previous Yanzhou festivals, and it is not easy for the people of Yanzhou to survive until today under his ****, and the Gao family does not fall, it is unreasonable!

There was even a moment when an irrepressible thought surged in Li*'s heart - if he gave an order at this moment, the head carrying countless sins would roll down to the dust, and the suffering of the people of Yanzhou would come to an end......

He thought about it for a long time, and finally gave up the tempting idea with a sigh.

In such an era, no matter who comes to do Yanzhou Jiedu, it is just to defeat one warlord and replace it with another......

In the end, it is the common people who suffer from this kind of revolution that does not change the soup but does not change the medicine and treats the symptoms but not the root cause......

Unless—

Unless I'm going to be this warlord myself!

Li * smiled bitterly, relying on the team in front of him with weak basic training just a little eyebrows, he couldn't control Yanzhou, not to mention facing the Zhe family, even in the face of Yanzhou's own potential strength, he was very weak, the Gaomen clan, the general in the army, neither side was easy to mess with. If you push them into a hurry, they will join forces to crush themselves.

Until his strength is strong enough and the knife in his hand is bright enough, he can't move such an idea for the time being.

What's more, he is also a human being, and he is also a person who is full of problems and weaknesses on all sides, how long can he hold on under the corrosion of this absolute power that controls the life and death of others?

Li * smiled bitterly, he knows his own affairs, and he can stand up under the corrosion of absolute power, he is a saint!

Confucius was a sage, not himself!

There is no shortage of people with great talents in this era, and such talents are now practically everywhere.

What is lacking in this era is the system!

It is a system that can stop the warlords from fighting and destroying their lives......

It is a system that ensures that the authority of the central government reaches the Quartet......

It is a system that can ensure that the national economy and people's livelihood are on a normal trajectory......

Zhao Kuangyin is not a very strong person, nor is he a very eloquent person, but he, like Guo Wei, realized that these warriors who held military power out of the town were absolutely unreliable, and they fully trusted the civil officials, gave the literati a high degree of governing authority and freedom of speech, and even fixed this experience in the name of Zu Xun in the Taimiao to ensure the continuity of the civilian political system and prevent the emergence of warlord melee in the feudal town.

Those future people who vigorously attacked the military and political system of the Northern Song Dynasty were never born in this era, they had never experienced the horror and misery of the troubled times, they had not seen the bleak scene of barren fields and few people, and they could not imagine what the world of cannibalism was like.

Perhaps the system of the Zhao and Song dynasties was not perfect, but for the people of the great land of China, this was indeed a rare good governance for hundreds of years.

As a fan of Chai Rong, Li * suddenly began to feel that compared to this era, maybe Zhao Kuangyin and Guo Wei are the real best choices, and Chai Rong, who is too strong in both ability and personality, is an alternative, he may be outstanding, or he may be very strong, but he is not the kind of monarch that this era needs most urgently......

Shaking his head and putting these selfish distractions behind him, Li* began to worry......

He was going to take all the money, and if he left a copper plate for Gao Yunquan, he swore that he would not be surnamed Li.

It's just that so much money, where does it go?

Transported back to Fenglin Mountain? No kidding, Li * has a deep understanding of the ugly side of human nature, once so much money is transported to the mountain, the team that he has just worked hard to put together as a fire will definitely corrupt and collapse in the shortest possible time, Li * does not want to use this means to test the will and faith of his subordinates, his arms can't twist his thighs, and it is better for human beings not to be hard and fight against the laws of nature.

This money is the start-up capital for your future development, and it will definitely not work if you don't take it, and if you take it, where to hide it has become a big problem.

At this moment, Lu Xun arrived.

After a brief command to Lu Xun, Li * transferred a few soldiers from his own team and sealed the entire treasury.

As he walked to the front yard, he lowered his head and thought about countermeasures, and in his heart he took out his subordinates one by one to take the school examination, planning who to send to carry out this special task.

Zhou Zhengyu?

Forget it, although Lao Zhou himself does not have the courage to embezzle, Liu Heng and Di Huaiwei are both money strings, and Lao Zhou has never been strong in principle, and he can't stand the soft grinding and hard bubbles of his own people, and he can't stand the coercion and temptation of class enemies, so that his prime minister's financial expenses are good, but the errand of looking at the warehouse is still exempt!

Shen Chen?

This man is infallible, has good integrity, and is impeccable in his loyalty. However, his training and command are good hands, and it is not his forte to look at the property and clarify the number, let him see that the warehouse is overworked, but he is afraid that the effect will be bad. This is a piece of general's material, and it can't just be wasted in the pile of money.

Wei Xun?

This guy is a careerist, and he is quite loyal to himself, the key is that he is righteous, and he will try his best to repay him if he is half good to him. From the point of view of reliability, this person is quite suitable, but this is not a meticulous person, and the schemes he makes are always bold but there are too many flaws, let such a person guard the treasury, but he has not reacted even if he loses the money.

He turned over and pondered, but he couldn't make up his mind, and when he was scratching his head, he heard a commotion in the front yard.

His brows furrowed, but he saw that the chief named Li Dezhu was running all the way.

"My lord, Qin Mingfu and Commander Qiu have arrived at the door, and they are forced to break in, will they be allowed to come in?"

"Ahh ”

He himself followed behind and trotted all the way to the front yard, but saw that Qin Gu was still wearing a clean green official robe, standing in front of Shen Chen and several other heavily armed soldiers, his face sinking like water; Behind him was an officer with a slightly uneasy expression, but it was his immediate boss, Liao Jianzhong, the commander of the left battalion.

"Don't back down yet!" Li * shouted back Shen Chen and the other soldiers, hugged his fist to Qin Gu, and said: "I was about to send someone to invite Zijian from the mansion, but I didn't want you to come by myself, just right, just right, I have a big deal to decide at the moment, you can be regarded as someone who can discuss it......"

Qin Gu smiled coldly: "Team Leader Li is polite, your soldiers have even sealed the state city, and even the high servants have been detained, what else can't be decided?" Do you want to consult with me, an unarmed scholar, and the county magistrate? ”

Li * was stunned for a moment, he looked at Qin Gu with wide eyes, but saw that the young county magistrate had a sad look in his eyes, and his mind turned, he already knew that this scholar had misunderstood him, he smiled bitterly, and said: "Things have developed to this point, it is really difficult to explain, Zijian doesn't have to be angry, the truth is not as you think, many aftermath things, I still have to count on you to help me, it's too cold outside, let's talk inside the house......"

Qin Gu raised his face and said slowly, word by word: "Now that this Jiedu Mansion is already your home, you have the final say on where to speak, since you said that you went to the house, just send your soldiers to escort me in, I am a Confucian student, and I have no power to restrain the chicken, what are you hesitating about?" It's a pity, Li observes a pair of discerning eyes, why did he see you wrong! ”

Li * looked at Qin Gu in a daze, his chest rose and fell, and Shen Chen and the others standing beside him were even more angry and wrinkled their eyebrows, just waiting for Li * to give an order, and then rushed up and stabbed this unknown county order into a sieve.

Li * stopped talking, his silence made the atmosphere of the scene even more tense, Liao Jianzhong, who was standing behind Qin Gu, complained again and again in his heart, it was obvious that Li * was talking in this state city at this moment, and the soldiers around him were all his people, and he could chop himself into meat paste with an order. Under the low eaves, he had to bow his head, although he was Li *'s top boss, he didn't dare to say a word more at the moment, but Qin Gu, a nerd, was so stubborn, isn't this looking for death. It's his own business that the county magistrate doesn't care about his own life, so why should he bring it to himself?

He only felt a burst of thirst in his mouth, and a smile barely appeared on his face, and he was about to say something round, but he saw that Li*'s face was tense, the corners of his mouth were slightly curled, his eyes were lowered, and he slowly knelt down on one knee.

He knelt not at Qin Gu, but at Liao Jianzhong.

Just when Liao Jianzhong was out of breath in surprise, Li * slowly spoke......

“…… Liao commanded, the day before the humble post led the brothers out of the customs patrol and captured Li Guangxing, the biological son of the party thief chief Li Yiyin, outside the Luzi Pass. He received the order and brought the captives, but unexpectedly, Gao Yanei actually set up an ambush in the White Tiger Hall, and was about to be detained without charge and imprisoned in the dungeon of Jiedu Mansion. He also sent the commander of the former battalion Zhao to lead a battalion of soldiers and horses to Fenglin Mountain to exterminate the lowly team, and the brothers under the lowly rank based on righteous indignation, after defeating the former battalion, rashly launched a mutiny, captured the state city and Jiedu Mansion, and only then did they save the lowly office......"

“…… The lowly and stupid, so far I still don't know what crime I have committed, and Gao Yanai and Gao Yanai actually want to exterminate the whole team of lowly officials in order to get rid of the horses! ”

“…… Ignorance and stupidity, knowing that the brothers have committed the great crime of military law, rebellion, mutiny, and holding the servants hostage, are all heinous and serious crimes, but the lowly duty cannot be blamed on the subordinates, if the commander wants to blame, but the crime can be one person! ”

“…… Humble and dull, although he knows that he is guilty, he still does not regard the father and son as innocent, it is the unkindness of the ya, and the subordinates of the lowly position are unjust. In the lowly team, more than 50 lives, if they don't rise up to resist, they have all become lonely ghosts today......"

At this point, the young lieutenant was already in tears.

“…… The lowly position is dull, and if you don't resist, it is death, and if you resist, you will also die, please command the lord to show the lowly and the brothers a way to live—"

“…… If the law is not merciful, the lowly duty is willing to die, but please make it clear what crime the lowly duty has committed, and if the crime is true, the lowly duty is willing to open up the street and make the canonical punishment clear, so as to follow the ...... of Wang Gang."
