Yang Chengzu came over today, not barehanded, not only with a large number of guards, but also with dozens of cages. The people who carried the cages were all swarthy men, and if they were seen by the people of the local yamen in Beijing, most of them would be able to recognize that the ghosts who attacked the government last time were these demons.

The four of them carried a box and placed it in the middle of the hall, when it was opened to reveal a neatly stacked silver ingot on a large red satin inside.

Yang Chengzu clapped his hands, "I know, everyone's recent life is not too good, there are people staring at everyone, and there are people around us who deliberately target us." But it doesn't matter, don't worry, as long as you are loyal enough to Banzai and diligent enough. There will be silver, and there will be good wine. This official guarantees you prosperity and wealth, and the future is bright. ”

These silver taels glow white under the illumination of the light, and even if they are divided, each person can almost divide dozens of taels. For the current Dongchang people, this is already a huge amount of money, after all, they have no extra income, and their salaries are actually very limited. Especially recently, the financial resources have dried up, and the fact that the East Factory has been in arrears for several months, can now make up for the previous salary, and in the air, there are a few sounds of swallowing saliva.

Yang Chengzu smiled, "Don't worry, the money is here, the silver has no legs, and it can't go anywhere." Before the payment is made, there is a small ceremony, roll call. ”

A Dongchang fanzi didn't wait for orders, he took the initiative to hand over the roster, and under the dual identity of piles of silver and the favored ministers of the Son of Heaven, even if they were newcomers, some people began to take the initiative to move closer to the new overseer.

Flipping through the roster, he read aloud: "Wang Xiang! Li Bei! ”

One of these two people is a thousand households, and the other is a hundred households, and they are the only masters with official status below the superintendent of Dongchang. is different from the situation of Jinyiwei, the 100 households of Dongchang, the 100 dogs of Jinyi, and the 100 households in charge of punishment, they can almost compete with the Shangguan of Jinyitang, and when they reach the level of 1,000 households, they can basically be regarded as the identity of the commander of Jinyi.

Both of them are middle-aged people, with vigorous skills and bright eyes, and at first glance they are shrewd and capable people with superior martial arts. Yang Chengzu looked at the two of them for a while, "Wang Xiang, a native of Shandong, the Eagle Claw King is learning art, and the Eagle Claw Gong has nine points of skill." Li Bei, born in brocade, was later elected to the East Factory and made many achievements. During the Renwu Change, he once killed the Hulu Ranger, right? ”

When it comes to the identity of the Dongchang Hall official, the corresponding files will also be established in Jinyi Weili, and it is not difficult for Yang Chengzu to master these, but he can remember the identities of these two people so well, it can be seen that he has done his homework. Generally speaking, the superior has such a clear record of the information of the subordinate, most of them are to have an appointment, and the two nodded, waiting for the following words.

But seeing Yang Chengzu's face, he suddenly turned cold, "Since the two of you like to fight so much, don't do it in Dongchang." This official has already helped you think of a place to go, fill the army and extend Sui, and there will be a battle there, and you will have a good time. Come on, take them down, and send them to Yansui for me. ”

This order came suddenly, and before the two of them even had time to react, several of the Yang family's guards raised their firearms, and several other strong people pounced from different directions and held the two firmly down.

The two men did not show resistance, but kept pleading: "Wronged! We are not guilty! I am an official of the imperial court, and you have no right to ...... like this."

"You are wrong, I have the right. This official is the governor of Dongchang, the reward and punishment are from the heart, and the promotion is up and down, long live has given me full power, and it is also the authority of this official to distribute you. Wait, is there anyone who is not convinced? ”

Huo Qiu neatly moved a big chair, and Yang Chengzu sat under the statue of Yue Fei with a golden sword, his eyes were like electricity, and he glanced at everyone in Dongchang. In the crowd, it seemed that someone wanted to say something, and some people's bodies moved, but in the end, there was still no word, and no one continued to move.

"Very good, it seems that the East Factory has not rotted to the house, at least I know, whose money is taken, who is in charge, this is a bit saved, better than these two eyeless things. In this way, I can make you a clear ghost, Wang Xiang and Li Bei, the two of them colluded with the courtiers in private, and the person who wanted to be arrested, you actually dared to release the news in advance and let him run away. How many heads do you have on your necks? Let you fill the army and distribute it, it has to be called the emperor's grace, and according to my idea, you two should fall to the ground. ”

He ...... He was wronged. Li Bei was pressed to the ground by several people, his face was close to the ground, and his expression was very painful. Although they are colleagues, they may have told jokes and chatted together not long ago, but the new governor moved seriously, and no one dared enough to release water at this time.

Yang Chengzu snorted, "Look, that's the problem." Is he wronged, and when will it be your turn to call the shots? Our Dongchang is a temple dedicated to only one god, and that is the emperor. Long live what you say, let's just do something, let whoever is arrested be arrested, let whoever is checked be investigated, you can check whoever is fine, report to the top, and then the above says to catch, you will be arrested. The owner is unfaithful, this is our first taboo in doing fanzi. You two have committed such a taboo, what else is there to be wronged? Come on, drag them down! ”

Several guards of the Yang family dragged people down with their hands and feet, Yang Chengzu glanced at his side, and nodded casually, "Wang Huchen, Huo Qiu." ”

Wang Huchen is Wang Tietou's name, he heard his name called, he took a step forward excitedly, and his voice was a little trembling and replied, "Mark it here!" Although Huo Qiu's voice was calm, his body was still trembling slightly, obviously they all realized that a great creation was about to fall on them.

"Wang Huchen, from today onwards, you are the 1000 households in Dongchang, and Huo Qiu, you are the 100 households. Both of you are people I have trusted, you must work together in the future, and you will be rewarded for doing well, if you don't do well, even if you are your own people, don't blame me for being ruthless! These sons and daughters will be your subordinates in the future, and you will be responsible for the reward, I am here to watch and see if you can convince the public in what you do. ”

He took the lead in snatching people, and as soon as he came, he settled the two responsible officials, and appointed his own henchmen, making it clear that he wanted to occupy the territory. Originally, the power of Dongchang was a plate of loose sand, but under his strategy of silver in one hand and steel knife in the other, he successfully completed the reception without forming any resistance.

Unlike Jinyiwei, the members of the East Factory are complex, and they have absorbed a large number of characters from the rivers and lakes. Most of these Jianghu people are not very right, hiding in the East Factory can not only escape from the enemies of the rivers and lakes, but also be powerful, and they are still willing to work hard.

When Yang Chengzu killed the Japanese in the southeast, he also recruited a lot of masters of Jiangnan martial arts. Wang Tietou and Huo Qiu, both new officials who were eager to make meritorious contributions, had just been rewarded, so they asked Yang Chengzu for orders.

Yang Chengzu took the two of them to the secret room, and said with a serious face: "You please order, this is very good, at least you know how to work, good phenomenon." I do have a task to hand over to you now, but the stakes are high, and you must keep it secret, and if anyone leaks the news, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless. There is a ghost inside us, and the first thing to do is to catch the ghost. Also, I've got a list here, so you can go and find out who is on it......"
