Meng Qiaofang smiled and said, "These people are the subordinates of this official, if they don't have the approval of this official, how dare they do such a thing?" If I say that these things are their own opinions, will Yang Qian always believe it? ”

Yang He looked at Meng Qiaofang, and suddenly sighed and said, "Meng Qianhu is really a smart person, it's a pity!" Pity! ”

"What a pity?" Meng Qiaofang asked.

Yang He shook his head: "A beautiful woman, why be a thief!" ”

Waving his hand, Yang He continued: "Okay, since Meng Qianhu agreed, then bring his subordinates back." ”

Meng Qiaofang hugged his fists and said: "Thank you Mr. Yang Qian, but this matter is not in a hurry, the official has booked two tables of banquets in the restaurant, and invited Mr. Yang Qian and all the adults to appreciate their faces." ”

Yang He shook his head and smiled: "Meng Qianhu, just said that you are a smart person, you will do foolish things, do you think I can drink this wine?" If I drink this wine, what do you think my men will think of me? ”

Meng Qiaofang hurriedly said: "This wine is the official to make amends to you." ”

Yang He shook his head: "Meng Qianhu, you don't need to make amends to me and the lords, you should make amends to the people of this county and the families of the border army." ”

After a pause, Yang He continued: "Meng Qianhu, I'll give you an account before leaving, I can't tolerate sand in my eyes, I and my brothers crawled out of the pile of dead people, if you are duplicitous, I don't care about the laws of the court, I will do it for you myself, do you understand what I mean?" ”

Meng Qiaofang nodded silently when she heard this.

Meng Qiaofang knew very well the meaning of Yang He's words.

He knew that Yang He was warning him not to think that after bringing people back, he would not admit his account without a witness. If he dared to deny it, Yang He would lead his troops to destroy him.

In fact, Meng Qiaofang really planned to do so in her heart.

When he came from the health office, Meng Qiaofang calculated it, no matter what conditions Funing County offered, he would agree to all of them first, and when Cai Yong and the others were brought back, he would turn his face and deny the account, the confession was in his own hands, and the certificate was gone, what can these people in Funing County do with themselves? If they wanted to come, the border army did not dare to use force against the guard.

But after listening to Yang He's words, Meng Qiaofang knew that his abacus had failed.

If someone else said such a thing, Meng Qiaofang would only regard these words as a fart, but he didn't dare not believe what Yang He said.

Yang He just said that he and his men crawled out of the pile of dead people, but in fact, he told himself that the lives of these people were all picked up, and they would not spare their lives.

To put it mildly, these people are a bunch of outlaws, and what can't a bunch of outlaws do? If these people were too bold, they wouldn't have arrested all the hundreds of people in the guard.

With a wry smile, Meng Qiaofang said: "Yang Qian, rest assured, since the official has agreed, he will definitely do what he says." ”

After a pause, he said: "This official originally set up two tables of banquets, one is to make amends to your lords, and the other is to hear the conditions of your lords, since several adults are not going, and Yang Qian has already issued conditions, then please make a list." ”

Yang He waved his hand: "You can pay back as much grain as you have robbed from the border army's family, think about how much you have robbed, Meng Qianhu should have a number in his heart, as for how much grain you should return to Funing County, please come to Master Zhang." ”

Zhang Fengqi smiled and said: "Originally, the official thought that Meng Qianhu was anxious to bring back his subordinates, so he wanted to wait for Meng Qianhu to send the list over after he returned. Hu Xiancheng, give the list to Meng Qianhu. ”

Hearing this, the county leader smiled and took out a piece of paper from his cuff and handed it to Meng Qiaofang.

Meng Qiaofang took it and scolded in her heart: "A group of bastards, with Yang He's support, you have become bolder." ”

However, he said: "Thank you for your understanding." ”

As he spoke, he unfolded the paper and looked at it.

There are only two kinds of lists listed by Hu County: 10,000 taels of silver and 5,000 stone of grain.

After reading the list, Meng Qiaofang squinted at Zhang Fengqi and said: "Lord Zhang, what are you kidding, this official has been in Yongping Wei for less than two years, even if he comes to Funing County every day to rob it, can he grab 10,000 taels of silver and 5,000 stone of grain?" ”

Zhang Fengqi said with a smile: "I don't know if I can grab the official or not, but the people of Funing County have suffered from Meng Qianhu's subordinates in the past two years, and I don't know how much scolding the official and my colleagues have suffered, Meng Qianhu must know it, right?" ”

Meng Qianhu sneered: "You mean you want to use this money and food to save your reputation?" ”

Zhang Fengqi said with a smile: "As an official, even if you can't benefit one party, at least you can't leave with a bad name, what does Meng Qianhu think?" ”

Meng Qiaofang sneered, turned his head to look at Yang He and said, "Mr. Yang Qian, is this what you mean?" ”

Yang He waved his hand and smiled: "I don't mean anything, but as the chief soldier of the Funing County Regiment, it is my duty to protect the people from intrusion." ”

Meng Qiaofang nodded: "Since Mr. Yang Qian said so, then the official will admit this account." Three days, within three days, the official sent someone to bring you this money and grain. ”

Yang He said with a smile: "In this way, three days later, I will wait for the master at the county office." ”

"Farewell." Meng Qiaofang said.

"Wait a minute, I have something to tell Meng Qianhu, a few of your subordinates molested women today, and they were chopped off by me." Yang He said with a smile.

"Huh?" Meng Qiaofang suddenly looked back at Yang He.

Yang He smiled faintly: "These people are not my subordinates, I can only punish them slightly, if they are my subordinates, I will cut off their heads." ”

"Understood, the officer knows what to do." Meng Qiaofang said.

"Also, when Meng Qianhu goes back, bring those two boxes back as well, and settle the accounts together in three days." Zhang Fengqi said.

Meng Qiaofang suddenly smiled when he heard this: "Lord Zhang, your lords released Meng Mou's horse this time, how could Meng Mou not know?" A little silver tael, talk about thanks. ”

Zhang Fengqi shook his head and said, "Meng Qianhu, do you think we can accept this silver?" I'm afraid that after receiving your money, my backbone will be poked and scolded all day long, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to sleep well at night in the future. ”

Meng Qiaofang shook his head and said with a smile: "Master Zhang, the official still knows a little about your behavior, you are not a clean official, you have been in Renzhi County in Funing County for two years, and you seem to have made a lot of money, why can you collect other people's money, but not the official's money?" ”

Zhang Fengqi said with a smile: "The lower official did receive some money, but the official took the money with peace of mind." Meng Qianhu's money, the official is uneasy. ”

Meng Qiaofang's face stiffened when he heard this, and after a while, he nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then the official will leave." ”

"I'm not far away." Zhang Fengqi arched his hand.

Meng Qiaofang arched his hand and turned to leave.

Looking at Meng Qiaofang's back, Yang He sighed lightly and said, "This person is a character, it's a pity." ”

Zhang Fengqi also sighed: "Yes, it is indeed a character." I thought he would turn his face just now, but I didn't expect him to turn his face like no one. ”

Hu Xiancheng smiled and said: "According to the lower officials, Mr. Yang Qian is really amazing, and he lost his temper in a few words. ”

Zhang Fengqi nodded and said: "Yes, if it weren't for Lord Yang today, how dare we talk to the surnamed Meng like this, Mr. Yang Qian, thank you today." ”

Yang He shook his head and smiled: "Thank me for what to do, in fact, I should thank you, these two days have been hard for you, today I am the east, please drink." ”

"Hehe, we can't drink the wine surnamed Meng, but Yang Qianzong's wine must be drunk." Zhang Fengqi laughed.

Hu Xiancheng also smiled: "Exactly, yesterday we invited Mr. Yang Qian to drink, but Mr. Yang Qian didn't arrive, so I have to have a few more drinks with Mr. Yang Qian today." ”

"No problem." Yang He said with a smile.

"By the way, where did General Li go?" Zhang Fengqi asked.

Yang He smiled silently.

"Lord Yang wouldn't have arranged for General Li to ambush outside, right?" Hu Xiancheng asked.

Yang He shook his head and smiled: "Some things are boring to say, the two adults say yes, right?" ”

Zhang Fengqi and Hu Xiancheng thought for a moment when they heard this, and nodded silently at the same time.

Although Yang He didn't say it explicitly, when it came to this, where would the two of them not understand?

Li Maochun did lead his troops to ambush, and the soldiers were divided into two routes, all the way to stand by in the city, in case Meng Qiaofang suddenly turned his face. The other way is on standby outside the city, and once Meng Qiaofang has a change, he will immediately send troops to take Meng Qiaofang's lair.

Although Yang He was ready to let Meng Qiaofang go, what he had to do still had to be done.

People like Meng Qiaofang must completely suppress him, otherwise, everyone will never have peace.

The words Yang He said to him were verbal threats, Yang He didn't know if his words could suppress Meng Qiaofang, so he made military preparations, and once his words couldn't be suppressed, he would use force to subdue him.

However, such a military operation cannot be said explicitly, and it is rumored that the border army will deal with the Weisu army, and everyone will not be able to eat and walk around.

……

The next day, Zhang Fengqi gathered the heads of the houses, told everyone about the extortion of 10,000 taels of silver and 5,000 stone of grain from Meng Qiaofang yesterday, and then promised everyone a heavy reward, so that they could settle the people as soon as possible.

With Zhang Fengqi's promise, everyone was full of energy, and in just one day, they clearly divided the two locations and the ten tuns, and two of the directors even allocated the land in the tuns they were responsible for.

Yang He admired the efficiency of these people.

On that day, Yang He stayed in Xiangshan and asked Li Maochun to return to the county to entertain Zhang Fengqi and others.

Yang He stayed in Xiangshan because he received news from Li Wei that Sun Defu would escort Yin Liang over that night.

These silver taels are the foundation of Yang He's life, and Yang He naturally attaches great importance to it, and he must be placed in person.

The location of Yang He has already been chosen, which is on the northeast side of the lake at the junction with Xiangshan Mountain.

There is a lake to the west, an elephant mountain to the east, and a mountain to the north, so as long as you keep the south side, no one can enter here. Best of all, there is a relatively flat plot of land with an area of nearly 100 acres, and there is a river nearby.

Yang He planned to wait for Zhang Shun to return to Datong to recruit craftsmen, so he would place these people here.

The only trouble here is that it is difficult to replenish, but this difficulty is completely negligible compared to the safety of the military factory.

Sun Defu and the others were led by Li Wei to the foot of Xiangshan in the middle of the night.
