Chapter Seventy-Seven: I Have to Ask Him

The town guards the eunuch's mansion, the living room.

Zhang Zi'an asked in a dark voice: "Where is the silver, where is the silver now?" ”

Zhao Santai said with a bitter face: "Father-in-law, the silver has already been used to buy the land, even if the general is willing to sell it, but it won't be able to become silver for a while?" But the rebellious army in the north camp of the city will not wait, there are already many soldiers in the army who have defected from the thief army, this is really going to cause trouble, and the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

Zhang Zi'an said coldly: "Now that I know it's amazing, why did you go earlier?" ”

Zhao Santai said in a low voice: "The last general is worried that things will get bigger and bigger, this gang of rebels can't see the silver, and they will besiege Datong City, if you really let this gang of rebels enter Datong City, then you and the last general will not be able to get out of it." ”

"Stop!" Zhang Zi'an said in a dark voice, "Zhao Santai, what do you mean by this?" When things come to an end, do you want to bring the troubles to our family? You are the deputy chief soldier of Datong Town and acting as the chief soldier, and you are also the one who is greedy for ink and silver, and you can only be the one who can't get rid of it, this matter has nothing to do with our family, don't think about pulling our family into the water. ”

The hatred in Zhao Santai's heart, it is true that he was greedy for 50,000 taels of silver, but Zhang Zi'an knew about it, and it could even be said that the two conspired, because 30,000 taels of it was used by him to honor Zhang Zi'an, but when it came to the end, Zhang Zi'an, the bastard, put the responsibility on his head alone.

"How dare the last general mean this." Zhao Santai didn't dare to argue, so he had to complain, "Father-in-law, you better hurry up and talk about what to do about this matter, whether to raise money to appease or transfer troops to suppress it, you can give a clear word." ”

"Mobilize troops to suppress?" Zhang Zi'an said gloomily, "Zhao Santai, are you in the water in your brain?" Where to transfer troops? Don't tell our family to transfer troops from Shaanxi, are you thinking that you have to let Wan Sui Ye know about this, and then let Wan Sui Ye transfer Beijing Camp from Beijing to Datong? ”

"This ......"

Zhao Santai shuddered and had nothing to say.

If this matter really alarms the Jingshi and lets the Long Live Lord know, then he, Zhao Santai, the deputy chief soldier, can be regarded as the end of the day, and if he doesn't get his head, he has to move! It seems that this matter really can't be suppressed by troops, so it can only be appeased by raising silver, but for a while, Zhao Santai really can't raise much silver.

Zhao Santai said with a bitter face: "But, where will the last general go?" ”

Zhang Zi'an said coldly: "Zhao Santai, our family will show you a clear way, you still have to ask the master of the horse for this matter!" ”

"Wang Pu?" Zhao Santai said, "You let me beg him?" ”

"What's the matter, you Zhao Santai can't ask for a horse master?" Zhang Zi'an said, "Have you been wronged or have you been insulted?" ”

Zhao Santai was silent.

Zhang Zi'an continued: "To tell you the truth, now even the king can't take out much silver, only the horse master or the Wang family has a large amount of cash, and the horse master is the general soldier of Datong Town who has just stepped down, and there is still prestige in the hearts of the mutinous soldiers, if you want to appease the mutinous soldiers, you can only ask him." ”

Zhao Santai said: "But during the day, the abbot of Shaolin after the 80s, the last general just had an unpleasant scene with the master of the horse, you said that I went to look for him at this time, is he willing to see me?" ”

"That's right." Zhang Zi'an nodded, and said angrily, "It seems that our family has to come forward in this matter." ”

Zhao Santai said with relief: "There is Father-in-law." ”

Zhang Zi'an glanced at Zhao Santai coldly, and said in a dark voice: "Look at what you have done, and let our family come forward to wipe your ass." ”

■■■

Wang's compound, Wang Punuan Pavilion.

Zhen Youcai said confidently: "If the villain's expectations are not bad, Zhang Zi'an will almost arrive." ”

"Third Master." Zhen Youcai's voice fell, and the voice of the pillar sounded outside the warm pavilion, "Grandpa Zhang came to visit the mansion and said that he wanted to see something." ”

Wang Pu and Zhen Youcai looked at each other and smiled, and said loudly: "Zhuzi, please Grandpa Zhang." ”

Zhang Zi'an didn't wait too long in the living room, Wang Pu came soon, Zhang Zi'an got up and hugged his fists and said: "Master Ma, I'm really sorry, this cold day is in the middle of the night, but it still comes to disturb your dreams." ”

"Father-in-law, where is this?" Wang Pu smiled and said, "Please take a seat." ”

After Zhang Zi'an sat down, Wang Pu said to the pillar again: "Pillar, why don't you go and build a pot of good tea for Grandpa Zhang?" ”

"Hey."

The pillar answered, and hurriedly prepared tea.

Zhang Zi'an said at this time: "Master Horse, something is wrong. ”

Wang Pu said: "Oh, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Zi'an briefly said the mutiny of the border army soldiers, as for Zhao Santai's greedy for money and silver joints, it was naturally omitted, and only when it was over did he put on a sad look, stomped his feet and said: "Zhao Santai's useless thing, usually treat himself as a person, but it really comes to the point of view, but it has become a mud that can't support the wall, you have been a general soldier in Datong for three years, and the border soldiers in the camp are all your old subordinates, and now only you can suppress them." ”

It happened that the pillar came up with tea, Wang Pu pretended not to hear it, and said to Zhang Zi'an: "Father-in-law Zhang, please drink tea, this is the best dragon well sold from Hangzhou before the rain." ”

Zhang Zi'an hurriedly said: "Ouch, my concubine, maybe before dawn, the mutinous soldiers will besiege Datong City, how can our family still have the heart to drink tea?" ”

"Grandpa Zhang." Wang Pu put down the teacup and said solemnly, "Although it is still in the mourning period of the next hundred days, according to the law, it is not allowed to ask about local military affairs, but Gonggong Zhang has said everything about this, and it is incumbent on him to appease the mutinous soldiers, but the mutiny of the border army is caused by arrears, if the imperial court or the local treasury cannot make up the arrears of military salaries, I am afraid that this matter will not be closed." ”

"Ugh." Zhang Zi'an sighed and said, "This is also another thing that our family asks for the master of the horse." ”

Wang Pu was stunned and said, "Father-in-law, you don't want to borrow silver, do you?" ”

Zhang Zi'an said: "It is to borrow silver, and now there is only a horse master in Datong City who can take out a large amount of cash." ”

Wang Pu couldn't help but sneer twice in his heart, this kind of faceless and skinless words can only be said by a shameless old eunuch like Zhang Zi'an!

In Datong City, not only he Wang Pu has cash silver in his hand, the rich acting prince, but also the insatiable Zhao Santai don't talk about him first, just Zhang Zi'an, the old eunuch, Wang Pu sent him a full 50,000 taels of snowflake silver yesterday morning, could it be that this silver evaporated out of thin air?

In this era, there is no Shanxi ticket number in the exchange world, the money houses around the country have just appeared, the scale is very small, only operating a small business of exchanging silver for copper money, even the silver ticket has not yet appeared, and a large amount of silver can not be exchanged for a silver ticket that can be carried with him, Zhang Zi'an, the old eunuch holding a large amount of silver, is nothing more than wanting to keep the purchase of the field industry, it just happens that the Wang family is selling the industry, and the 50,000 taels of snowflake silver sent out will return to the Wang family's silver treasury in a blink of an eye.

As for the land and property purchased by the old gelding, it will be wiped out in an instant when the army of thieves arrives.

Wang Pu's heart turned, but he said: "Father-in-law Zhang, I did take back a batch of property from Liaodong, and I also exchanged all of it in Beijing into cash, long live Lord sympathetic did not fill the treasury with this silver, and there is no need or want to hide it from my father-in-law, this silver is more than 1.25 million taels in total." ”

Hearing such a huge amount, Zhang Zi'an's eyes lit up in an instant.

Wang Pu continued: "However, just to deal with the officials of the Beijing Division, it cost a huge amount of 500,000 taels, and the remaining 750,000 taels were all transported back to Datong, 600,000 taels have been paid the military salaries and pensions of the soldiers who went to Liaodong, and 50,000 taels were used for the funeral of my father and ordinary household expenses, and now there are only more than 10,000 taels of silver left in the treasury." ”

There is also a sum of nearly 80,000 taels of silver where Wang Pu did not say, and there is no need to say it, because this silver is simply used to deal with Zhang Zi'an and the stewards and eunuchs of the three weapons workshops.

Wang Pu said: "Grandpa Zhang, it's not that I don't want to help you, I really can't get more cash." ”

Zhang Zi'an pulled down his old face and asked sadly: "Can't you think of other ways to do it?" ”

Wang Pu didn't say anything, but Zhen Youcai's voice came from behind the screen: "Of course there is a way, and there is also silver, it depends on whether you dare to take it, father-in-law." ”

Next, it's time for Zhen Youcai to appear.
