99.Chapter 118
The sunset is over, the twilight is slowly sinking, and it is another twilight day.
After dinner, Guo Ye first went to Ma Yuanju's house and told him about the ransacking of He Mansion yesterday.
After all, overnight, the first fly ash in Longxi was annihilated, and none of the nearly 100 lives of Hefu survived alone, which is not a trivial matter.
Although Ma Yuanju had acquiesced to doing this, and he also knew about it, it was reasonable for him to tell Ma Yuanju about it. This is not respect between superiors and subordinates, but respect between comrades-in-arms.
Now there are only two of them left in charge of affairs in the entire Longxi County Government, and the county magistrate has let the two of them take full responsibility for defending the city.
What's more, although Ma Yuanju has always been cunning and treacherous, he has not taken care of Guo Ye.
In public and private, in reasonableness, Guo Ye felt that it was necessary for him to go to Ma Yuan's family, even if it was enough to say thanks, thank him for opening his eyes and closing one eye, thank him for his reminder, and thank him for his connivance.
You must know that being able to let a scholar like Ma Yuanju, who claims to be a Confucian sage in the world, connive at Guo Ye to do such a lack of morality, really let go of some principles that he has insisted on for a long time in his heart.
Even in the face of the temptation of promotion back then, he Ma Yuanju kept his heart, adhered to his principles, never had a trace of motivation, and did not go along with others.
Who knew that for the sake of Guo Ye, a good friend, he fell......
Guo Ye came quietly, stayed at Ma Yuanju's house for no more than half an hour, and then quietly left, only putting down a bamboo basket at the door of Ma Yuanju's house.
The basket was neither silver, nor food, nor the white-flour steamed buns that Ma Yuanju wanted to vomit in his dreams.
It is a basket of books, about a dozen copies, not printed copies such as the subset of the Four Books and Five Classics, but some solitary classics collected by He Xun, the second eldest of the He family, as well as several rubbings of inscriptions by famous masters of the previous dynasty, all of which He Xun searched for during his foreign visits to friends.
For Guo Ye, these things are really not as affordable as a few strings of pearl agate jade necklaces.
But for Ma Yuanju, these things are good and good treasures, on the contrary, if you come in with a basket of gold bricks and silver ingots, this donkey will not sweep Guo Ye away.
This is where Ma Yuanju is different from other officials in the Yamen, and it is also where Guo Ye loves and hates him, persistent, but stubborn.
It's a donkey.
After leaving Ma Yuan's house, Guo Ye walked in the direction of the Yamen, looking at the sky, Zhu Fatzi should have almost invited all the businessmen and wealthy families in the city, right?
After entering the yamen, Zhu Fatzi's subordinates were waiting for Guo Ye at the gate early, and when he saw Guo Ye coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and led Guo Xiaoge to the court where the county magistrate tried the case on weekdays.
Sure enough, as soon as he went to the court, Guo Ye saw that there were about 20 people on both sides of the court, full of businessmen in silk and silk and big families in Longxi.
Everyone was talking one after another, and when they saw Guo Ye coming in, they immediately stopped their voices and turned their eyes to Guo Ye's body in unison.
Zhu Fatzi immediately welcomed Guo Ye in, and bit his ear on tiptoe at Guo Ye, perhaps it was the process of reporting and inviting all the businessmen.
After biting his ear for a while, Zhu Fatzi lifted down the chair above the public hall and the county magistrate's lord, and placed it under the public hall for Brother Guo to sit on.
Zhu Fatzi's move was also instructed by Guo Ye, don't look at the county order Gu Weiyong's absence, but he didn't dare to hold it up, and sat down in the position of the county commander of the seventh grade with a big grin.
In case it was reached by someone who chewed his tongue and had a heart to Gu Weiyong's ears, wouldn't that add to his troubles? Doing something that is jealous of the boss is a taboo in officialdom.
After Guo Yezheng sat down, he didn't go around in circles as long as he had in the previous conversation, but directly cut to the point and asked aloud: "Everyone, who Guo is, I don't need to introduce him more, right?" There is only one purpose for summoning you to come today, that is, how to hold Longxi County, no matter how bad it is, it will last until the reinforcements from the Zhichong Governor's Mansion in Yizhou County arrive. ”
Zhu Fatzi next to him echoed on the side: "The county magistrate has recently been worshipping the Buddha in Ganye Temple for a period of time, and he has explained before leaving, and the county has full authority to handle the affairs of Master Gong Cao Ma and Guo Ye Guo, you all understand, right?" ”
Airplanes!!!
Zhu Fatzi's words are the most fatal, which of these people present is not a human spirit, how can they not understand the true intention of Zhu Fatzi's words?
The county magistrate dared to avoid the limelight, and now the county seat of Longxi is temporarily in charge of Guo Ye and Ma Gongcao.
This is the power to give Guo Ye and the two of them the power to cut first and then play, tsk, the scale in everyone's hearts tilted slightly, and they also put away their contempt for Guo Ye a little, at least for now, they dare not despise it anymore.
At this time, an old man stood up tremblingly on the first chair on the right, Guo Ye knew this person, this old man was Xu Chongnian, the owner of the largest restaurant in Longxi County, "Food for the Sky", and the Sichuan cuisine made by the Food for Heaven Restaurant was a must in Shuzhong, and it seemed that there was a semicolon in Yizhou County.
Xu Chong stood up with his old arms and legs, clasped his fists and saluted, and said: "Brother Guo's name, the old man has also heard of it, since the county commander entrusted a huge Longxi county into the hands of the little brother, it is naturally trusted. Although the old man is a businessman, dealing with the copper-smelling thing all day long, but guarding my Longxi county, it is the right thing to do, whether it is to contribute money or effort, although Brother Guo commands. ”
This is said in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner, and it is a model of understanding the overall situation, listening to Guo Ye for a while, he is as happy as a glutton.
Guo Ye nodded, smiled lightly with the shelf, and praised: "Old Xu understands righteousness, and this is exactly what the head of this team means." The mountain bandits are attacking the city, and the enemy is outnumbered, but the head of this squad and his brothers can't sit idly by, right? Therefore, the head of this team will organize the county's officials and the young people of the city to go to the city gate together to resist the siege of the mountain bandits. ”
Everyone nodded yes when they heard Guo Ye's promise.
"But—"
Guo Ye changed his words and sighed softly: "This defending the city against the enemy is a disaster for swords, and there will always be casualties or something, so the head of this squad thinks so, if you want the young men of the government to kill the enemy bravely without fear of sacrifice, there is only one way, and that is to make a brave man under heavy reward." As for the silver bounty, hehe, everyone, you know. ”
After that, Guo Ye stretched out his hands and spread it out at everyone, the meaning is obvious, the little brother has made efforts to protect the safety of the county, how can you rich and prostituted people mean it?
How could these elves present not understand this meaning?
However, there are those who understand righteousness such as Xu Chongnian, and of course there are some iron roosters who are unwilling to pluck their feathers.
Sure enough, Guo Ye's voice fell, and opposite Xu Chongnian, a person also stood up on the left side of the court and said: "Brother Guo's words are wrong, you are taking the imperial court's money, and you eat the royal food, so you naturally want to do things to protect the people." Why do we ask our people to give money? Could it be that our silver is blown by the wind? ”
"Yes, Tian Datou is right, isn't this the reason?"
"Originally, this year's business is already difficult to do, and the imperial court is now more harmful to the merchants, why do you still have to share the money on our heads when this part of guarding the city and rewarding silver?"
"That is, our Fan family has high walls and thick walls, and when the mountain bandits attack the city comes, they will not be able to loot my Fan family at all, and I will not get this silver as a big son."
It seems that this is the mind of most people, and they are basically opposed to the reward of silver in support of the warriors defending the city.
Instantly
Guo Ye's face suddenly sank, he knew who the Tian head who was the first to refute him, this bastard was the one who sold the most illicit salt in Qin Wei's account book, surnamed Tian Ji Yu, because his head was very big, and he was loved and calculated, so he had a nickname of "Tian Tou" in the business circle.
Guo Ye glanced at these clowns who jumped out one after another, and they were basically all on the list in Qin Wei's account book.
Hum!
Guo Ye sneered in his heart, he really didn't shed tears when he saw the coffin.
Immediately, Guo Ye took out the account book in his arms and put it in his hand, then turned his gaze to Tian Da's head and snorted coldly: "Don't you give Lao Tzu these vain things, and if you say a few words to you, you will think you are a character, right?" Grandson, let's read your own great achievements before you talk crookedly! ”
"Smack!"
Guo Ye raised his hand and threw it casually, and the account book was gently thrown high and drew an arc and flew into the arms of Tian's head.
Tian's head was startled by Guo Ye's sudden anger, and when he saw Guo Ye swearing so much, he couldn't help but show his timidity, and slowly opened the account book with a weak heart.
It's okay not to look at it, but at a glance, hey~~
The face of Tian's big head became ugly, where is this his own great achievement, this is a Hades amulet.
The ugly things of himself and He Kun, as well as Qin Wei and others are recorded in detail and in detail, accurate to a certain year, a certain month, a certain day, and a certain hour, and the location and catty are accurate to the extreme.
Wipe!!
Tian Da found that what he was holding was not an account book, but a talisman that wanted him to die, and he couldn't wait to swallow this hot potato into his stomach on the spot.
Guo Ye looked at the half-dead Tian head, and said in his heart,, I don't need to clean up!
Then he shouted at Tian Tou: "Don't be stunned, Tian Tou? Spread it down one by one! ”
As soon as these words came out, Tian's head shook violently with both hands, and the account book fell to the ground.
The people in his vicinity didn't know what it was, so they rushed forward to pick up the account books and inspect them.
Again, it's good not to look at it, but after reading it, they all change color, and only a very few of those present are not in the account books.
As for the businessmen on the list, they looked at Guo Ye with a pitiful expression, as if they had the intention of negotiating.
If you don't negotiate, you can't do it, now the entire Longxi county is the final say of this stinky boy who has not dried up, life and death are all in the thoughts of others, not to mention that there is a handle to be controlled by human hands?
Pedal Pedal !!
A rapid running sound broke in from outside, and it was Cheng Erniu with a horse whip in his hand.
I saw that after Cheng Erniu broke into the court, he didn't pay attention to anyone present, and reported directly to Guo Ye: "Little brother, the scout in front of me reported back to the horses, and the thieves coerced nearly a thousand people to come violently, and they were only ten miles away from our Longxi County. ”
What the?
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar!
Not to mention the timid businessmen present who were afraid of death, even Guo Ye almost couldn't hold his composure and exclaimed.
Guo Yexindao,
The thieves are here in the blink of an eye, and they can't afford to delay any longer on these things.
Then he glanced at everyone and asked in a cold voice: "Everyone, hurry up, what do you mean by this silver reward?" Stand out, right? ”
