Chapter 140 The Banquet Triumph III
After three bowls of wine, Yang Chengzu's legs shook, and he couldn't stand still, Zhang Rong laughed and said, "You can't drink enough!" Like you, Ben was not a good drinker. But it is not good to work in the regimental camp and not drink well. Drink more and vomit more, and you will practice it, and when you drink it darkly, you will vomit a mess, and you will be guaranteed to become a mass like me. Sit down, sit down next to Bemb, I have something to say. β
Seeing this situation, these hundreds of households said in their hearts: This Zhang Rong is really strange, looking at Fang Cai's posture, it seems that he wants to eat this Yang Chengzu alive. Why now, on the contrary, he looks like he is a confidant, which one is this?
I only heard Zhang Rong say: "Everyone knows that my uncle, was bought by my brother's military exploits. Everyone knows very well what my brother is, there is no need to hide it, it is not a shame to be able to enter the palace to serve the heavenly family and serve the country loyally. But no matter what, incognito and conceal one's name, even the family members have to change their surnames, but if there is a way, who wants to do this? β
During the Ming Dynasty, eunuchs not only had to change their names, but also their surnames. Just like Liu Jin's Liu was changed later, and even his family changed to Liu, Zhang Yong's surname Zhang is just his surname, not his own surname. It's just that except for Zhang Rong himself, others don't dare to say a word more about this kind of thing.
I only heard him say again: "We are from Baoding, Beizhili, if it weren't for the disaster and famine in our hometown, we couldn't survive, how could my brother enter the palace?" Therefore, what Ben Bo hates the most is to take advantage of the famine to knock out the bones and suck the marrow, exploit the people, and make a fortune himself. Many of my relatives in my family, including my two brothers, starved to death in that famine, and the culprits who starved to death were good people like Zuo Wannian, as well as those big and wealthy families who fried grain! You say, what is my relationship with the person with the surname Zuo? β
As soon as he said this, these hundreds of households were speechless, and they made trouble for a long time, and he couldn't get along with these grain merchants from the bottom of his heart. Yang Chengzu cleaned up the grain merchant and leveled the price of rice, which is right for the uncle, so it is no wonder that he is qualified to work with him three times in a row.
"When Shen Futai's documents were sent to Jingshi, Ben Bo was serving the Heavenly Family on the Leopard Room, and after the Heavenly Family received the news, he only said one sentence, do you know what it is? It's those big families who should be killed! When Banzai was training the new army, what he needed was money and food, and the local people, not only did they not want to lose donations to repay their benefits, but also wanted to make themselves rich, so they didn't want to kill Banzai? β
"You don't know about the white-clothed army a few years ago, in the final analysis, those people are just a group of victims who can't eat. If Henan's grain prices are really pushed up, who knows if there will be a second white-clothed army? At that time, Banzai called the Pujing of Shaolin, only let him look at the folds, and said that he was poor. The monk nodded obediently, and used Shaolin's Buddha to assist the imperial court in stabilizing grain prices, even the monks knew this truth, why didn't those big families know? β
He pointed to a few hundred households with his hand, "You, you, and you, saying that your corpses are vegetarian meals are all regarded as exonerating you." Which of you has done something in Ben Bo knows in his heart, but long live said that God has the virtue of a good life, and he can't bear to kill too much, otherwise, I'm afraid that I won't cut off a few heads this time and clean up the rules of Weili! β
When he said this, it was tantamount to proving that he knew the secrets of these hundred households, and several of the hundred households involved left the table in fright and knelt down, kowtowing like pounding garlic. Zhang Rong snorted, "Get up, sit down and eat." In the past, the official will not pursue it, but if anyone dares to continue to act recklessly in the future, then don't blame me for being unkind. β
Zhang Rong's majesty passed, and when he saw the trembling appearance of those hundreds of households, he felt a little more comfortable. Then he said to a man behind him, "Take two hundred taels of red gold." β
After a short time, the man came up with a wooden pallet stacked with small ingots, and Zhang Rong pointed at Yang Chengzu, "This time Henan's mission is done well, your first merit can't escape." I know what you think, and when you go to Kaifeng, you just want to have a future, yes or no? β
Yang Chengzu's wine surged, and he hurriedly knelt down and said, "Uncle is wise, the subordinate can't hide this selfishness from you." β
"Don't be so inhibited, get up and talk. The officer did not learn any skills when he worked in the regimental camp, but only learned one rule, that is, rewarding merit and punishing faults. If anyone is lazy in his official duties, or even ruins the affairs of the heavenly family for a few small bucks, then I will never spare it. But if he is fighting for the face of the heavenly family and guarding the country for his grandfather, I will definitely not let him be busy in vain. The two hundred taels of gold will be rewarded. β
He acted in a style that was very rough in the army, with words and deeds, and lacked careful thinking. Yang Chengzu sent out a hundred taels of gold, but he didn't expect to receive two hundred taels of gold, and it was given in cash, without going through the middleman, so naturally he kowtowed again to thank him.
Zhang Rong said: "Your official position is a little smaller, how can you only be a small flag with such a skill as you?" I think it's more than enough to be a hundred. β
Duan Biao almost collapsed over there, what do you mean? Is it difficult to let him take his own position, so what are you going to do? Whether it's a sworn brother or a relationship, this future is a word, but it can't be people, could it be that the third child will be his own confidant in the future?
Fortunately, Zhang Rong said again: "It's a pity that you are too young, after all, you can't suppress those people, and rashly promote you to a hundred households, I'm afraid that you won't be able to control the yamen." In this way, from now on, your title will not move, and a general flag will be awarded, this master, Ben Bo will still do it, and you will wait for the letter of the Ministry of War. β
Don't look at the ranks, but the military attachΓ©s in the Ming Dynasty are popular for high ranks and low matches, especially the Jinyi Yamen. Giving a general flag can be of great benefit to Yang Chengzu's future development.
Zhang Rong has a relationship with Zhang Yong, and it doesn't take much effort to hold a general flag, which is a formality process
From this moment on, Yang Chengzu can openly call himself the general banner, and there is absolutely no need to worry about any repetition.
This promotion not only improved his actual teaching, but more importantly, expanded the establishment of the small yamen of Huaxian County. He is the general banner, and he can arrange fifty brocade clothes under his command, but there are only ten in the county at present, which means that in the blink of an eye, he has forty more brocade clothes in his hands, and this even includes officers like Xiaoqi.
Just selling these places can make a lot of cash, not to mention how effective this money can be used to buy people's hearts. He can already imagine that as long as he tells his mother about this matter and gives her brothers a small flag quota, what pose does she have to pose, and she doesn't have to pose any pose, even if the ninth master marries a girl to change the quota, I am afraid that he is willing.
