Chapter 181: Dividing the Spoils

After Chang Zhenbang heard a movement outside, he opened the curtains and looked outside, but saw that Wang Dewang was directing his subordinates to move those big boxes up one by one, and couldn't help but smile slightly, and said, "Yanzi, you have made a great contribution again this time." ”

Chang Zhenyan, who was sitting on the ground behind him, said happily: "Engong is serious, what is this, the stroke of using a gun to drive a big car scared people into paralysis, it is better for those little ladies to calm the scene." ”

Chang Zhenbang smiled and said without saying a word: "Yanzi, you are almost fifteen or sixteen now, according to your age, you should also get married in the countryside." If there are any of those girls who like it, you might as well pick it. ”

Chang Zhenyan blushed and said, "Engong, what are you talking about, Yanzi wants a house without a house, if you want money without money, what will I do to support my family when I get married!" Even if I do, people may not want to. ”

Chang Zhenbang said with a smile: "You are an officer now, I will approve you a big house for the house, as for the money, your monthly salary is also a lot, not to mention marrying a daughter-in-law, it is not a problem to support a concubine." ”

"Besides, those girls are beautiful, but they are all broken shoes and they are not worth it, and besides, why should a husband have no wife! With Engong, can I still have a wife? Chang Zhenyan said very hard, but there was still covetousness and expectation on her face, and there was a layer of inferiority that could not be erased.

Chang Zhenbang didn't force it, and said: "I've read the official document, except for De'an Zhang Youneng who didn't harass him much, and after the other nineteen counties were cheated by him, he didn't give me a three, six, nine, etc., this person really disappointed me a little bit." ”

Chang Zhenyan smiled angrily: "Adjutant Zhang has not yet arrived, those county masters went out of the city thirty miles to greet them, dismounted five hundred oceans, and when they left, they got on the horse for a thousand oceans, and they chose the best to eat, drink and have fun in the middle, and chose a fresh little beauty to come over at night, this day is really comfortable, especially in the days of the New Year, it is really drunk and dreaming of death, the lights are bright, just a plate of braised donkey lips slaughtered twenty donkeys, I have never seen such a loser!" "This swallow is also simple, and when it comes to those girls, it seems that no matter how many girls make him unwavering, but when it comes to donkeys, he is so distressed that he almost sprang up from the ground.

Chang Zhenbang smiled faintly, whether it was a woman or a donkey, he didn't care about it, what he cared about was the background and identity of these people, so he reprimanded Zhang Youneng in a manner according to Chang Zhenyan's meaning, and then asked: "Zhang Youneng is so ridiculous, don't read this official document, what kind of goods are these county masters, I believe that you know about Yanzi, you might as well tell my brother." ”

As soon as I heard Chang Zhenbang ask him to evaluate these county masters, Chang Zhenyan suddenly came to the spirit, and said in his heart that you county lords who show off their martial arts and prestige can't imagine that there will be a time when I want to make my swallow decide life and death, just thinking about this fun is great, Chang Zhenyan immediately said what he knew and what he inquired about, of course, for the evil deeds of some corrupt officials and corrupt officials, Yanzi also heard and did not see it, as for these who have not seen it, he also said it, but he said it to Chang Zhenbang in advance, indicating that this is just what I heard, maybe there is, maybe not, but there is a reason for the return of the empty incident, but it is not my swallow who deliberately planted it.

Chang Zhenbang was really shocked after listening to the identity and status of these twenty county masters, but he didn't expect that these twenty county masters were all in Wenhe's relationship before taking office, the longest was only three months, and the shortest was only thirty or forty days, of course, the county magistrate of Ande County may have been concerned about the relationship between Chang Zhenbang and the Lu family, and chose a distant relative of the Lu family to be the county magistrate, and if the money was not much, it could be regarded as selling Chang Zhenbang a face.

As for the remaining nineteen county magistrates, three are the old Beiyang department, half of them rely on military exploits and half of them spend money to go up, and six are local wealthy families, who took the county magistrates sent by the imperial court seriously when they were in the previous dynasty, and now they are just spending money on the table, after all, this day has become like a marquee, and it is not easy to make a fortune in a sullen voice, as for the remaining ten are bought at a great price, and when people buy officials, they also make it clear that they only work for half a year or about a year, and then they can find a reason to drive them away. Or negotiate the price again, or meet indefinitely, but you can't settle accounts after the autumn, and talk about corruption and looting. With such a good buyer, Wen He was naturally happy to accept all the orders, and even encouraged them to think more about making money after taking office, so that they could leave as soon as possible and let him sell a stubble.

"This kind of situation of selling officials is only in our Xunyang Dao? Or is it the whole Jiangxi Province? After Chang Zhenbang listened, he was also stunned by the wrists of Wen and others, and said that the previous dynasty was incorrigible for corruption, but everyone was corrupt and perverted the law with integrity, and at least the first three or four months of the three years had to be pretentious, and when he left, he had to be sympathetic to the people's feelings or something, where was it so ugly like Wen and such people, it was really unheard of to the point of outrageousness, if the people had eyes before and after, it was estimated that they would regret driving the emperor away, However, this also promoted the people's intention to support President Yuan Da as emperor in another aspect, after all, no matter how bad the order is, it is better than no order. So much so that there were gentry and celebrities in the counties and counties, but they organized a movement to persuade the imperial system.

Chang Zhenyan didn't think so much, but said something: "Wuhan people are in turmoil, Jiangxi Province is divided into Yuzhang, Xunyang, Luling, Ganzhou four provinces under the jurisdiction, Yuzhang, Luling Daoyin is either a former dynasty or a Beiyang important person, all have a backstage and a backer, Ganzhou is occupied by Wenhe, and the Daoyin who took office has almost become a decoration, don't mention it." Only Xunyang doesn't know if it's because of Engong's sake, there has been no Taoist to take office, and Wen Heyou doesn't deal with you, and the act of selling officials and lords at will will be flooded, to be honest, the batch of people inspected by Adjutant Zhang has been replaced by the central court, and it is still a change of soup without changing the medicine, and it has fattened the two dog things of Wenhe and Li Chun in vain. ”

Chang Zhenbang said: "That's to see that I'm weak and bully me!" ”

Chang Zhenyan scratched her head and said: "Of course this persimmon is pinched softly, Engong, you are under the eaves, you still have to bow your head when you should bow your head!" ”

Chang Zhenbang smiled faintly and said: "Even if you become the emperor, there is Lafayette above, who is not under the roof?" It's just that people coax it, don't blame God, if you want to live freely, you have to have your own ability. ”

Chang Zhenyan recognized Chang Zhenbang's words very much and said: "What Engong said is reasonable, but after all, you are just a Dao Yin now, a town guard, and you can't compare to the overseer." ”

Chang Zhenbang smiled and said, "Yanzi, what you said is wrong, who wants to compare with the Overseer?" I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do. ”

Chang Zhenyan wanted to ask Chang Zhenbang what he thought he should do? But at this time, Wang Dewang's voice came from outside the door, saying, "My lord, Wang Dewang asks to see me." ”

As soon as he heard that someone wanted to see Chang Zhenbang, Yanzi immediately opened the window to leave, but was pulled by Chang Zhenbang and said: "You still have to meet this person, and you can still use it in the future!" ”

Chang Zhenyan saw Chang Zhenbang say this, so he jumped down from the window, tidied up his clothes a little, and turned around to show Chang Zhenbang, Chang Zhenbang looked at him and gave him a thumbs up, although he didn't know what this meant, but those foreign devils in the British Concession were very satisfied and would put them up, I believe there should be no bad meaning.

As Chang Zhenbang came in, Wang Dewang gently pushed the door open, asked the horses to move the big box in, and then put his legs together, and said, "Lord Qiqi, my subordinates have brought all those things, and please review them." ”

"I can still trust you to do things!" Chang Zhenbang said and opened a big box, which was full of white flowers, Chang Zhenbang grabbed a handful, and the current ocean quickly fell from the gap between his fingers, listening to the crackling sound, I believe that no one will be unhappy, he smiled and said to Chang Zhenyan: "It seems that our Adjutant Zhang has gained a lot this time." ”

Chang Zhenyan said: "Adjutant Zhang's ability to sweep the autumn wind is still very good, but it's a pity that these boxes are not all silver dollars." ”

Chang Zhenbang listened, and opened another box again, which was full of some silk and satin, exquisite fabrics, although it was not a silver dollar, but if you really bought these, it was really not cheap at all.

"These things are also very valuable! It seems that Adjutant Zhang's eyesight is still good. Chang Zhenbang said with a smile, and opened a box again, but there were several bronze antiquities inside, which didn't seem to be anything new, as for whether it was as the age expressed on the outside, it was unknown, and it was up to professionals to identify it.

Chang Zhenyan pointed to one of the largest boxes and said, "My lord, this is a gift that Adjutant Zhang bought for you and the two ladies before they came back, don't you open it and take a look." ”

Chang Zhenbang said: "If you don't open it, you know what it is, so why embarrass Adjutant Zhang too much?" Although he said that, Chang Zhenbang still kicked the box open, and a lot of strange things rolled out of it, what osmanthus halva, Hukou tempeh, Xiushui ochre inkstone, Xiushui Ning black tea, Lushan bamboo silk curtain are really all good handicrafts, but unfortunately they are not worth a few dollars. If these things are given away, it is estimated that a clean name will be deceived by Zhang Youneng again.

"Our Adjutant Zhang is really scheming, Wang Dewang's name asked people to inform Adjutant Zhang that he was ineffective and lost his official documents, and he should have been shown to the public, but remembering his hard work in the past, he was demoted to a soldier to serve in the Zhang Youhua Department of the Jiujiang Army."

"My lord, isn't it too hurtful to hurt family affection to be demoted like this?" Wang Dewang said: "Zhang Youneng is your cousin after all, and if you directly become a big soldier, I'm afraid it will be a joke." ”

"What you say makes sense, so what should you do according to your intentions?" Chang Zhenbang asked.

Wang Dewang thought for a while, and said embarrassedly: "That subordinate is bold, I hope your lord will forgive me!" The subordinates don't mean to let Adjutant Zhang be the deputy squad leader! This size is an official, and it can also fulfill the brotherhood of adults, of course, this is just a little opinion of subordinates, and it is not very mature, I hope you will forgive me. ”

This deputy squad leader can be said to be the youngest officer in the whole army system, as long as the general big-headed soldier performs well, he will directly become the squad leader in two or three years, but this is also in line with Zhang Youneng's identity, he is Zhang Youhua's younger brother, Chang Zhenbang's cousin, a well-known big man, let him be a small soldier, if he breaks the jar, it is estimated that the battalion commander will not be able to control him. It's better to give him a deputy squad leader, so that he has a thought in his heart, and he won't get out of control. After thinking of this, Chang Zhenbang took out a piece of Xiu Shui Ning black tea and threw it to Wang Dewang and said, "If you reward you, do what you want!" ”

Wang Dewang was overjoyed, don't look at this Ning black tea is not worth a lot of money in the eyes of big people like Chang Zhenbang, but for these big-headed soldiers like them, it can withstand the food for several months.

Chang Zhenbang threw dozens of oceans at him again, and said: "This is for you flowers, don't bury the tea, take it back to your parents, and taste it on your father-in-law's side, it can also show your filial piety." ”

Wang Dewang didn't expect Chang Zhenbang to think about himself so much, and couldn't help but be grateful, Chang Zhenbang pointed to these boxes and said, "I'll send these things to Mrs. Xiaozhu later, and let her deal with them." Then inform the back kitchen to kill a sheep at night to make up for the brothers who are on duty today, and the other ten yuan per person is the ocean, and you are twenty yuan. ”

"Thank you, sir!" Wang Dewang said happily, today's reward can make him go back and have another child, how can he not be happy.

Chang Zhenbang pointed at Chang Zhenyan again and said, "This is my younger brother Chang Zhenyan, who is now a captain officer of the Special Service Section, and he will ask you for help in some things in the future, you have to try your best to cooperate." ”

Secret Service!

This thing seems to have existed in any era, and there are records of these guys provoking seventy-two brothers when the Yellow Emperor fought Chiyou, but the most famous is the blood drop of Yongzheng Ye in the previous dynasty, it is really appalling, everyone is in danger, in fact, it is not a big deal, but these guys are not hiding in the shadows like shadows, monitoring everything in the human race, just thinking about it makes people shudder, not to mention that these people will appear behind you anytime and anywhere.

I didn't expect Chang Zhenbang to have such a group of people around him, Wang Dewang remembered that when he picked up the box just now, he had the idea of carving up the greed, if he really did it, he would really die without a place to be buried, and when he thought of this, he couldn't help but sweat profusely, and it was called luck in his heart.

Chang Zhenbang was able to introduce this invisible light to him, which means that he didn't treat him as an outsider. Wang Dewang was shocked at first, and then he was very happy, Chang Zhenbang introduced these people to him, indicating that he had become Chang Zhenbang's confidant, otherwise how could he let him know these things that he shouldn't know?

Suddenly, Wang Dewang seemed to think of something, took out the two military ranks thrown by Huazi from his pocket, handed them over, and said, "This is Brother Zhenyan's!" ”

Chang Zhenyan saw the rank he was holding, and immediately ran behind Chang Zhenbang, went up and snatched it, and said, "How did this thing get into your hands?" ”

Wang Dewang said: "This is the two brothers under Brother Zhenyan who threw them over, I don't think they are in the army, and they don't know any rules, so they are so nonsense." Fortunately I met me this time, if others are afraid, there will be a turmoil, so Brother Zhenyan should educate his brothers after he goes back. ”

"These two useless things, dare to throw this thing around, see how I clean them up when I go back!" Chang Zhenyan gritted his teeth angrily, the so-called official documents and private seals, this thing is like an official uniform, and when he learned that he was thrown out by those two little brothers like garbage, it really made Chang Zhenyan speechless, and he couldn't wait to kill these two goods with one punch, but he was angry, turned his head and thanked Wang Dewang.

Wang Dewang said: "Those two people have never been soldiers, so naturally they don't know what is so powerful in this, so pay attention next time."

Chang Zhenbang also came over and said to Chang Zhenyan: "The first time I didn't do good things, as long as I don't repeat the mistakes of the past in the future, such people can still be used!" If you are afraid that you will not change after repeated teachings, then there is no need to keep such people. ”

Wang Dewang saw all this in his eyes, and secretly had a plan in his heart.

Chang Zhenyan nodded and said: "Engong, don't worry, after I go back, I will definitely clean up these two rabbit cubs, dare to cause such a big thing with me, and throw such an important thing to me, it is really a death." But don't worry, Engong, I promise that such a thing will not happen again in the future. If anyone dares to make trouble for me and Engong again, Lao Tzu will not let them go first! ”

After appeasing Chang Zhenyan, Chang Zhenbang glanced back at Wang Dewang and said, "Wang Dewang, you will go to Commander Zhao of the Guard Regiment in a while and inform him that from now on, Zhang Xiaoliu will be transferred to the lieutenant colonel adjutant of the officer, Adjutant Zhang is gone, and there is always a confidant next to me!" ”

"Yes!" Wang Dewang said loudly.

Zhang Youneng, the adjutant, really doesn't do much, relying on the relationship between his cousin, he can come when he wants, leave when he wants, and he doesn't pay attention to it at all, so that everyone here has complaints, if Zhang Xiaoliu is replaced, it will be very different, at least they will communicate with each other, and there will be not so much trouble.

Chang Zhenbang waved his hand at him and said, "Okay, you can get busy with your going first!" I'm looking for you! ”

Wang Dewang saluted out of the study again, called out the horses again, and explained a few words, only to hear a low cheer from outside the door, and these horses moved out of Chang Zhenbang's study in good spirits.

At this time, the swallow has disappeared, it seems that at the moment when Wang Dewang left, he left at the same time, Chang Zhenbang watched these horses move the box, found an official document casually, waved a pen, handed it to Wang Dewang, and said: "Send this official telegram to the counties under the jurisdiction of Xunyang Road, inform them that they must rush to Jiujiang City within three days, and the official has something important to discuss with them!" ”
