Chapter XXVI

At the end of March, four days have passed since the destruction of the Black Mountain military bandits, the spring breeze is getting warmer, the wheat seedlings on both sides of the official road have been tasseled, the breeze seems to be blowing, the wheat waves are rolling, and it is gratifying. The people of Qianshou in Shahe Township have already begun to repair farm tools and prepare for spring.

Perhaps Shahe Township broke the threat of the Black Mountain military bandits, and the number of pedestrians on the official road became more and more numerous, including Confucian scholars in single clothes and cloth shoes, businessmen in elegant clothes, and Qianshou in black or white clothes. But after all, the world is restless, the roads are not quiet, and pedestrians mostly wear short knives and long swords.

Among them, dozens of carriages of "da, da, da" rushed from Pingjian County to Shahe Township on the official road, and they were particularly conspicuous among the cars and horses.

I saw that most of the carriages were full of sacks, and the other two carriages were also full of sacks, but they were only covered with black cloth, and I don't know what they were, but just looking at the armor soldiers on both sides of the carriage with spears and heads raised, I knew that they must be precious items.

At the front of the carriage was a middle-aged man, about forty years old, with beautiful hair, dressed in Confucian robes, and tied with a black waist. It was a spring breeze proud, full of red light. Isn't it just that Shahe Township has a rank of Du Yi! Oh no, it should be called Luancheng County Magistrate by now!

Luancheng is a county under the jurisdiction of Changshan State, located in the northwest of Pingjian County, about 100 miles, and Pingjian County is close to Huanshui, but in the middle and upper reaches. Before the Yellow Turban Disaster, Luancheng County had a population of about 70,000, which was considered a large county, and now although it is affected by the Yellow Turban and Black Mountain bandits, there are more than 50,000 people. Some time ago, his former county magistrate absconded because he was afraid of the might of the Black Mountain military thieves. He's not happy!

Yes, this is exactly the reward that Du Yi went to the county to report to the minister of state three days ago and asked for the reward for many heroes in Shahe Township!

This reward is divided into three parts, one is the reward of money, because the merit is too great, it is enough to reward 500,000 yuan. One is the reward of grain, because the minister heard that there are more than 10,000 displaced people in Shahe Township, so he transferred it from the counties under its jurisdiction and extracted it from the treasury, and gathered enough fine grain of thousands of stones to appease the displaced people! The other is the promotion of Wen Chou, and the appointment document is in Du Yi's arms.

In the middle of the day, Du Yi led the convoy to the boundary of Shahe Township, and the news quickly spread throughout Shahe Township. ”

Du Yi traveled all the way to the official temple, Qin Zhang had already returned from the county in the morning and had been waiting in the official temple for a long time. In recent days, Qin Zhang has followed the county lieutenant Liu Li to deal with the "Lin Qing case", and he is also happy, because he has been promised to be promoted to thief Cao by the county monarch Zhang Chi, and he is a county official of Baishi! If he hadn't waited for Du Yi to return and see if he could get him an official position in the county and other rewards, he would have rushed to the county to take up his post.

After Du Yi greeted Qin Zhang and other villagers, he ordered someone to invite Wen Chou and others.

Wen Chou and others are recuperating in the Wen House, and at the beginning of the noise in the township, there are house slaves who come to report to Wen Chou, Wen Chou knows that he is afraid that the county's commendation has arrived, so he immediately gathered everyone and rushed to the official temple.

Not long after, Wen Chou and the others came to the official temple, and saw that Du Yi, Jiang Cheng and other villagers had already been waiting for the prime minister at the door, and they couldn't help but sigh a little, how similar this was to the scene at the beginning of the month! It's just that the people who were waiting at that time were anxious, and the people who were waiting were also panicking, but at this time it was a burst of laughter! Filled with infinite joy.

Wen Chou saw the black award that Du Yi was wearing, and immediately smiled and said, "Congratulations to Du Gong on his ascension!" ”

"Ha, ha, ha, then I also congratulate you on your ascension!" Du Yi stroked his beard and laughed.

"It's finished?" Wen Chou stepped forward in surprise and asked.

"It's done!" Seeing Wen Chou's rare gaffe, Du Yi took out the appointment document from his arms and handed it to Wen Chou, and couldn't help but laugh: "There is a rank Wenjun!" "It's no wonder that Wen Chou is out of shape, isn't he the master of this place after several lives and deaths! Although the township is small, as long as this step is taken, he has the possibility of attacking the world!

Wen Chou took the document and read it carefully, and was overjoyed. After hearing this, the villagers present congratulated Wen Chou, Wen Chou was busy returning the gift, and Yan Liang, Liu Zhong and others behind Wen Chou were also very excited, as if they had won a reward.

Seeing the chaotic scene, Du Yi coughed lightly and pointed to the carriageway on the side of the road covered with black cloth: "Don't be impatient, everyone, the rewards are there!" ”

When everyone heard this, they all turned their eyes to the carriage.

Du Yi saw that everyone was quiet, so he ordered the townsman to tear off the black cloth, and saw that the two cars were full of five baht coins in baskets!

Du Yi looked around at everyone and said with a smile: "The 500,000 yuan is the prime minister's reward for all the thieves involved." Du Yi paused, took out a form from his bosom and read: "You Qin Zhang, 10,000 money; the third old Jiang Cheng, five thousand money; the other village officials and the chiefs of the pavilions, each with three thousand dollars, a total of eighty thousand yuan; Wen's Pavilion Wen Chou, money 50,000; Liu Shi Pavilion Liu Zhong, 10,000 money; Thorn Pu Dong Jiang, 10,000 money; 10,000 iron, 10,000 money; Wen's Pavilion Wenba, 10,000 money; …… A total of 200,000 yuan, and the remaining 300,000 yuan is the reward of the 5,000 Qiantou and the first 3,000 homeless people in Shahe Township! ”

After Du Yi finished reading it, he saw that everyone was ruddy and their eyes were shining!

Du Yi ordered the official to take out eight gold cakes from the horse's cloak, looked at Wen Chou and the others and said loudly: "These eight gold cakes are specially rewarded by the minister of state for the twenty horsemen who went deep into the thief camp!" ”

Everyone has not yet come out of the shock, and the reward alone is 600,000 yuan!

I saw that Du Yi threw out more explosive information again! "Of course, that's not all, there will be rewards from all counties in the county that will be delivered in mid-April!" ”

"Rewards for each county?" Wen Chou asked.

"As early as when the Montenegrin army thieves started, they took the Xishan District of Gaoyi County as a base to cause trouble in the surrounding counties, and at that time the counties and counties set a purchase reward, and those who could capture and behead their commanders would buy 100,000 yuan, and those who could capture and behead one of their main leaders would buy 50,000 yuan. ......," Du Yi said in detail.

Qu Shuai has 100,000 people and 50,000 leaders. All in all, you can get more than one million rewards. Coupled with the purchase rewards of various counties and counties, it may be possible to break five million. It's a blessing. Everyone was even more excited!

"Du Gong, what are these?" Wen Chou asked, pointing to the dozens of carriages.

"By the way, these are refined grains, a total of 1,000 stones, which are used to appease the homeless!" Du Yi patted his forehead and said.

"A Thousand Stone Essence Grain!" The text is ugly! This is a strategic material in this chaotic era, where there is no place to buy money! Now that he has taken office, he has an order, and he doesn't have to worry about food for the homeless people for the time being!

ps: An example in "Juyan Han Jian": "It is not cool for a group of thieves to kill officials, it is advisable to ambush and punish at the right time, and I am willing to set up a reward for purchase, and I can catch and kill ...... Qu Shuai is one person, 100,000 yuan for purchase, and 50,000 for party henchmen"
