Chapter 30 Tongzhou Zhizhou

Yang Jialong, the governor of Tongzhou, heard that the big man with brocade clothes and guards arrived at the Tongzhou Post House, and hurriedly took a few entourages and went straight to the Tongzhou Post House in an official sedan chair.

The civil officials of the Ming Dynasty hate and fear Jinyiwei's fanzi, and for six-grade officials like Zhizhou, there is only fear left, if Jinyiwei wants to arrest such a civil official, he can directly read the edict at the door, and he will definitely not meet those who dare to resist.

Yang Jialong also came to Tongzhou this year to take office, and this person's ability is also average, but he has the advantage that he is not too greedy, and he always leaves room for fun in doing things.

For example, the drought near Tongzhou was very severe this time, and Yang Jialong took out a part of the grain from the government treasury to provide relief for work. Yang Jialong asked those victims who had no food and clothing to help dredge the canal, and then each person was given two catties of food a day, and the wages were gone.

There are countless victims rushing to do it, Yang Jialong's move has saved tens of thousands of hungry people, thus winning the reputation of "Yang Qingtian" for Yang Jialong, and the errand that the imperial court has always wanted to dredge the canal has also been done by Yang Jialong, which is really a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

Of course, Yang Jialong's drift that should share the profit will never be less, and it is already a common practice in the Ming Dynasty about drifting, so it seems that Yang Jialong is a little greedy for ink.

Yang Jialong sat in the sedan chair, cold sweat was falling down, and there seemed to be a nail cone under his buttocks, which made him fidget, because he was also afraid that these brocade guards were coming to trouble him.

Tongzhou as the end of the Grand Canal, the grain from the south is landed in Tongzhou, and then stored in the official warehouse in Tongzhou, so Tongzhou has grain to work for relief, but the dredging of the canal in Tongzhou is very huge, hundreds of thousands of stones are available, then Yang Jialong's drift will not be less.

Tongzhou is very close to Beijing, but there are few Jinyi guards who come to the door with such fanfare, especially since Emperor Chongzhen vigorously abolished and restricted the factory guards, it is rare for a large number of Jinyi guards to come to Tongzhou.

This made Yang Jialong wonder if it was his own business, these brocade guards came to investigate his greed for ink, so Yang Jialong was so restless, this is all scary!

Not long after, the Tongzhou Post House still arrived, Yang Jialong was in a nervous mood, and asked his entourage to find the post to ask, and he had a number in his heart, he was always so worried and afraid, Yang Jialong was afraid that he would be scared.

After a while, a short and fat little official ran to Yang Jialong, nodded and saluted with fists:

"See Lord Zhizhou, I don't know that Lord Zhizhou has arrived, and the small one is far away, please forgive me."

"Hmm......" Yang Jialong deliberately pretended to be casual and asked:

"This official has patrolled here today, what is unusual about you here?"

The short and fat post man was very surprised, his own Shangguan eyes were above the top, he went to visit him again and again, and he was closed, but today it was "the sun came out of the west", and this boss with eyes above the top personally ran to the post station.

"Lord Zhizhou, the post station is normal, there is nothing wrong?"

Of course, this short and fat Yicheng didn't understand the purpose of Tongzhou Zhizhou's trip, which stumped Yang Jialong, but fortunately, Yang Jialong's master helped to relieve the siege:

"What adults are coming to your post today?"

At this time, Yicheng understood Yang Zhizhou's purpose, and hurriedly replied:

"My lord, today suddenly there is a Jinyi Weinan Town Fu Si Zhenfu with dozens of elite horses to stay in the post station, the villain has arranged a separate courtyard for them, absolutely no business trip, but please rest assured."

How can a person who can be a master not be a person with a flexible brain, Yang Jialong's master rolled his eyes and said:

"Since the adults of Jinyiwei have arrived in our Tongzhou, we magistrates should still do some landlord friendship, and we should also accompany our adults to see if the courtyard you arranged is really comfortable."

This master went around and around, just to go with Yang Jialong to meet Yang Tingjian, the lord of Jinyiwei, and he had seen countless officials, how could he not know what Yang Jialong meant, but the official level crushed people to death, let alone several levels.

Yi Cheng was silent on the surface, but his heart scolded:

"The dog said, if you want to go to the Jinyi Guard, you can say it clearly, and you are still doing so many things, is it possible that Lao Tzu's eyes are blinded by the donkey! I...... Bah. ”

Yi Cheng was cursing in his heart, but his face was "smiling like a flower", and his face was almost squeezed into a pile:

"That's what your lord said! I'm going to patrol ...... Please come with me. ”

After Yi Cheng finished speaking, he moved his fat body and walked towards the courtyard where Yang Tingjian was resting.

At this time, Yang Tingjian was drinking tea, and at the same time discussing the requirements for this recruitment with Shen Lian and a few of them.

"Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing will go to the wharf tomorrow to paste notices in conspicuous places everywhere, and at the same time ask a few literate people to help read them, and the notices should be noted in them, our Jinyiwei recruits wrestlers, and the actual sound of thirty-six taels of silver per year will not be deducted."

Shen Lian's brain was very active, and Yang Tingjian set the salary of an ordinary brocade-clothed guard at thirty-six taels per year, which greatly exceeded the salary paid by the imperial court, so he hurriedly asked:

"My lord, is the salary too high, even if the household department does not float our salary, the salary of each brocade guard is only twenty taels a year, where can we raise this amount of silver?"

Yang Tingjian smiled indifferently, and said to Shen Lian lightly:

"Shen Baihu don't worry, I will pay for this silver myself, and I will raise this soldier myself, even their weapons and equipment are also borne by Lord Ben, didn't we bring a silver ticket of more than one million taels of silver this time? I think this time should be enough. ”

"Ah......" At this time, whether it was Shen Lian who was surprised, even Lu Jianxing, who had always been very wooden and honest, was stunned, the adults wanted to raise their own soldiers, and Jinyiwei, as the emperor's personal soldier, of course it was impossible to betray the emperor, but the silver for raising soldiers was gone.

Lu Jianxing still couldn't help but remind:

"My lord, I'm afraid this cost is a bit bigger, even if the adult family has ten thousand, it shouldn't be squandered like this! This is the behavior of a loser. ”

All right! Yang Tingjian also understands the feelings of the two brothers, which family inheritance of the ancients is particularly strict, Yang Tingjian's behavior of taking out his own silver and helping the emperor raise soldiers is definitely the only one in the Ming Dynasty, and it is inevitable that the two brothers do not understand.

"Hey...... Now the court is in difficulty, you also know, even the salary we should get has been deducted from above, and if we are not still managing the outer city of Jingshi, the brothers are afraid that they will not even be able to afford to eat.

Now that we have only 1,000 people in Nanzhen, we are so poor, if we return to a full state, then the situation can be imagined, so it is better for me to pay this money, so as to reduce the burden on the imperial court. ”

"My subordinates admire my lord, and my lord is really a model of public loyalty to the country......"
