Chapter 123: The Ambition of Grand Prince Zhang

The victims who stayed behind were angry, they thought that the people who were saving the suffering did not expect it to be so dirty, and the huge contrast made this anger unbearable, and the victims flocked to the Zhang family's mansion in groups and unceremoniously hit it. The subordinates of the Zhang family are not vegetarians, so they picked up the guy and fought with these victims.

Chang Zhenbang shook his head at the commotion of the crowd, and said, "Heaven is evil, it is forgivable, people can't live if they do evil!" Zhang Jifei embezzled disaster relief funds, and his crime should be punished! But don't let these gangs make trouble for the people! After speaking, he turned around and instructed Zhang Youneng to inform Zheng Chaokai to transfer a garrison brigade to disperse these victims, and by the way, he also drove out those Zhang family members. However, it was too late, and the outer hall and front gate of Zhang's house had been completely destroyed by the refugees.

Zhang Jifei's eldest son, Zhang Yao, saw Chang Zhenbang coming, hurriedly ran over, knelt on the ground with a puff, hugged Chang Zhenbang's thighs and begged to avenge their family and severely punish these illegal victims.

Chang Zhenbang said: "Master Zhang, someone will handle the affairs of the victims, but your father's account is short of 13,000 yuan, what should I do about this matter?" Now that everyone is watching, you should always give you a satisfactory explanation to the villagers! ”

Zhang Yao has long known about Chang Zhenbang's account checking, and also knows that the reason why these victims are in trouble is also because the money problem is not right, this problem is not solved, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of troubles in the future, the so-called father Mo Ruozi, he also knows what his old son is, what donated 10,000 oceans, what is missing 3,000 oceans, as long as the old man has been presiding over this, this is not a matter, but now the old man has passed out, and he is still resting, it is really not good to give Chang Zhenbang any explanation, but it is written clearly in black and white, If he denied it, even if the victims spared him, Chang Zhenbang and those Westerners and Dongying people would not let go of their family, and when it really came to that time, it would be self-isolation from the world of Jiujiang, thinking of this, he gently wiped the cold sweat on his head, and said: "My father may have another purpose, but my father is bedridden now, and it is good to negotiate with adults after my father gets better?" ”

Chang Zhenbang said lightly: "This money is raised by Chinese and foreign friends together, not by your Zhang family!" Could it be that Mr. Zhang is not getting better for a day, so he will let these victims freeze to death and starve to death? There is no such reason! If Zhang Dagongzi can't give a satisfactory answer to this official today, this official can only do official business and let the garrison arrest people. This official believes that there will be a day when things will come to light, and I don't know if the entire Zhang family will be able to survive in Jiujiang at that time. After speaking, he asked the garrison to go in and arrest people and seal up Zhang's house.

If the old man is really arrested, the hat of unfilial piety will fall from the sky, then he Zhang Yao really can't raise his head in Jiujiang, and besides, their family can afford to be unprepared for seizure and investigation? Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and almost made a voice from his lungs: "My lord, put out the wrath of the thunder for the time being, and the villain will make up the money, but the villain has a reluctant request!" ”

"Say!"

"If it is found out in the future that this money is indeed used by my father for disaster relief, I will ask the adults to give a subsidy and return it!"

Chang Zhenbang said: "No problem, the official can put this money at the end first, and after a day or two, after the old gentleman's health improves, he must be able to tell the official everything!" ”

"Thank you for your understanding!" After Zhang Yao finished speaking, he hurriedly returned to the inner house, and after half an hour of rummaging through the cabinets, he ran out in embarrassment in a woman's crying and screaming, and ran out in embarrassment, and when he saw Chang Zhenbang, he took out a roll of silver dollars and silver tickets from the torn robe, and said: "This is 13,000 yuan." Please check it out! ”

After Liu Shifa walked over and finished the counting, he let people enter the accounts, and then took the officers of the Military Justice Department to count all the money and take it away, and went to Zhang Youneng to go through the handover procedures and the time and place of opening the porridge shed tomorrow.

After watching these wolf-like officials of the Judge Advocate General's Office leave, Zhang Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief, touched the blood marks on his face, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, those girls really don't know what to do, when the old man is in the limelight, the money in the family seems to be theirs, and when the old man has an accident, looking for their money, they all refuse to be hanged.

Chang Zhenbang took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Yao, and said, "Wipe it, you are also a filial son!" I also know Mr. Zhang's character, but we still have to do some routine procedures. I hope that the eldest prince will not blame the official. ”

Zhang Yao took the handkerchief and said with a smile: "Women, they are all things with long hair and short knowledge, and this can't be blamed on adults, if it weren't for my father suddenly fainting, where would there be so many things." It's just that my father has always been strict and never let us juniors participate in charity, what I'm afraid of is that we juniors can't resist the temptation and move the money that shouldn't be moved, so that the father faints, and the villain doesn't know where these money is going at all, but it makes the adults laugh, I just hope that the parents of Jiujiang don't misunderstand the old man. ”

Chang Zhenbang said: "Don't worry, the eldest son, who doesn't know that the old man is old and virtuous, as long as the official is still in Jiujiang for a day, he will never let the old man's reputation be damaged!" ”

Zhang Yao said: "The villain thanked the adult on behalf of the father!" The old man has been a good person and done good things all his life, and now he is past his old age, and he doesn't have a few years to live, and the old man is not busy in vain if he can hold the reputation of the old man. ”

"It's not easy for the old man, I'll lend it to you, let's get past the current level first!" Chang Zhenbang said and took out a check from his sleeve, which was the 2,000 yuan check written by Yukio Takekawa that night.

"This ......" Zhang Yao looked at Chang Zhenbang in surprise.

Chang Zhenbang winked at him and said: "This is a sum of money sent to me by Dongying Jiujiang Business Club, the eldest prince may wish to use it first, after all, there is such a fuss today, I believe that tomorrow there will be many people with undivided thoughts to take advantage of the opportunity of the old Zhang family's poor turnover to make trouble, the old man is lying in bed now, the eldest prince should support this family, right?" ”

Zhang Yao was greatly moved when he heard this, and said: "Thank you for the maintenance of my Zhang family, as long as the adult is in Jiujiang for a day, but there is a place where the villain can be used, the villain will definitely go to the soup and die!" ”

"That's what you see!" Chang Zhenbang said with a smile: "Old man Zhang has also done a lot of things for his official and Jiujiang!" Chang Zhenbang said, glanced around, lowered his voice and said: "The matter of recruiting workers for those firecracker workshops is what the old man did for me!" Son, we are not outsiders! ”

As soon as Zhang Yao heard this, his heart was shocked, and a happy smile immediately appeared on his face, from the day he recruited workers for those firecracker workshops, he was very puzzled, this is not a year, there are not many people to set off cannons, the old man is full of food and supports to play with the firecracker workshop, the root is originally here.

"To tell you the truth, the old man told me that once those firecracker workshops are put into production and make ammunition, they will be directly sold to the official. I don't know how the old man is doing. Chang Zhenbang said mysteriously.

Hearing him say this, Zhang Yao was overjoyed, this arms business is a huge profit, or the old man has a unique vision and clever means, no wonder the town guard made the adults come to Jiujiang for a few days, and then gave the fat difference to the old man. Sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy, after Zhang Yao thought of this, he hurriedly said: "The manpower has basically been arranged, if you want to say that it is okay to help adults drum up some explosives, but the bullet thing villain does not say that you also know, we Chinese can make guns, can't get bullets, even the bullets made in a field as big as Hanyang are sixty percent useless." ”

Chang Zhenbang said: "I also know your difficulties!" There is a way that it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and the technical level of our country and the level of technicians are also like this, how can this official be difficult to be strong? You can always make grenades! ”

Zhang Yao scratched his head and said, "That thing is simple, it's almost the same as a big man's second kicker!" ”

Chang Zhenbang's face finally showed a satisfied smile: "Very good, after Old Man Zhang is well, I will let him hand over this part of the field to you!" As long as you do a good job, whatever you want for official position, money, and food, as long as I can do it, I will not treat you badly. ”

Zhang Yao was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Thank you for your promotion!" Chang Zhenbang nodded with satisfaction, turned around and took those people away, Zhang Yao looked at his figure, his eyes were almost a slit with a smile, clutching the check in his hand, but he was thinking about how to make the poor sours who urged those firecrackers to quickly get some explosives and grenades! As long as these two things are handed over to the town guard envoy as soon as possible, why worry about his Zhang Yao's future? He, Zhang Yao, followed Chang Zhenbang, and he could be regarded as choosing the master. Thinking of this, he went straight to the firecracker farms, found the stewards, and instructed them to concentrate on making gunpowder and grenades.

These people in charge are dumbfounded, what are you doing here? Although this arms routine is quick to get money, it is not so easy to get along with, and if it is light, it will destroy the family. However, Zhang Yao told Chang Zhenbang's matter, after all, he still has to keep it secret, right? It is only said that the family is used to prevent thieves, and these people in charge have to obey their fate, after all, they are eating his family's food, how can they also contribute to his family, right?

Gunpowder is easy to make, there are resources in the firecracker field, and it will be done in a while, and as for the grenade, it is also easy, so I found an iron shell and left a long twist, just like a cannon fight, ignited and threw it out, and it naturally exploded. That night, Zhang Yao sent these two objects to Chang Zhenbang's office with a smile.

Chang Zhenbang is quite satisfied with the gunpowder, in fact, he can't be satisfied with that thing, as for the strengthened large cannon battle he took, Chang Zhenbang smiled bitterly, but he still encouraged Zhang Yao to make persistent efforts. Zhang Yao listened to it, and immediately went home.
