Chapter 112: The Book of Life and Death

"One thousand three hundred and twenty taels of gold, fifty-eight thousand seven hundred taels of silver, twenty-one quintals of copper, two buckets of pearls, and one hundred and fifty mink skins......

With the counting, Zhang Ke's mouth grew bigger and bigger, and his jaw dropped in shock, the White Lotus Sect really had a great cause, and when he robbed the bandit nest of the Xiashan Tiger, it was almost like a pie falling from the sky, and now this pie is bigger, more fragrant, and has more oil and water!

"Lord Qiqi, the Xuanzi number treasury has been counted, and there are still three treasury!"

Zhang Ke almost fell to the ground, how much money did the White Lotus Sect collect!

"Check, hurry up and check, don't let go of a copper!"

Grain, gold and silver, ordnance, cattle and sheep......

There are more and more materials, piled up like a hill, dazzling, saliva for a long time, and the abundance of things is beyond imagination.

After the initial joy, Zhang Ke showed a thoughtful look, wealth will not come out of thin air, the lifeless old mother and Maitreya Buddha will not be blessed, the most common technique of the White Lotus Sect to collect wealth is to deceive and intimidate foolish men and stupid women, and deceive people under the guise of curing diseases and driving away evil spirits.

Judging from the runic paper spiritual water and various Buddha statues that were searched, the ability to take care of the house was not only not lost, but also flourished.

It's just that the crooked path is not the right path after all, and the expenses of the White Lotus Sect are also very huge, so there is absolutely no way to save so much silver!

Where exactly does the money come from?

Zhang Ke frowned deeply, looking at the mountains of gold and silver, his eyes lit up!

Since the ancient road, there are no merchants and no wealth, the White Lotus Sect must have done business, and they are between Ming and Meng, what can they do? The answer seems to be on the horizon!

"Qiao Fu, Wu Boyan, both of you come over to me!"

Qiao Fu was capturing the prisoners, and Wu Boyan was pouting his ass like food. I put down the work in my hand and ran over with my fart.

"My lord, what do you command?"

"Listen, search every corner at once, and find all the ledger letters. As long as it's with words, don't let it go! ”

Zhang Ke gritted his teeth, his eyes lit up, he pulled out the radish and brought out the mud, and there were definitely not a few officials and businessmen who were unclear with the White Lotus! Holding the ironclad evidence, it is equivalent to getting the god list, and whoever wants to turn into ashes can't escape!

If you go outside, you must first settle inside. Only when the moths are cleaned up can we have the strength to deal with external problems.

"Ma Biao, immediately send people to send a letter to Lord Wang Huazhen and the Thirteen Taibao. In addition, send someone to contact Gonggong Hong and Gonggong Zhang, so that they know in their hearts! ”

Originally, the extermination of the White Lotus Sect was a great achievement, but Zhang Ke keenly felt that this was the beginning of the cleanup! His task is to deliver the knife to the hands of the big man, and as for himself, just wait obediently for the profit!

Facts have proved that Zhang Ke's judgment is indeed accurate, in fact, as early as three days ago, the storm had already begun.

Seeing that the earth was rejuvenating and everything was recovering, Wang Huazhen stepped up military training. While supervising spring ploughing and appeasing the Han people who fled from Kaiyuan Tieling and other places, he was very busy.

However, Wang Huazhen is also willing. Although Zhang Feng's case did not lead to a major purge, the attitude of the palace has changed, and it is just whether it explodes early or late. His task is to get things done and wait for further steps!

Lord Wang was in a good mood, when suddenly his subordinates came to report that someone wanted to see him.

"Who? Where did it come from? ”

"Lord Qiyu. Said to be from Yiju, there is a confidential matter! ”

Uiju? Could it be that Zhang Ke sent someone over?

"Let him in!"

After a while, a middle-aged man in a green coat and a small hat trotted in. Plop on his knees and kowtow.

"What are you. What's the matter with finding this officer? ”

The middle-aged man's eyes were red, and he said: "My lord, the little one is the family of Zhou Xiong, the general of Jinyi, I want to sue Zhou Xiong!" ”

When Wang Huazhen heard this, she immediately frowned, the house slave sued the master, and the following offenses were definitely a bit rebellious in the eyes of the scholars, and Wang Huazhen's opinion of Zhou Xiong was not bad, a conscientious person, what mistake could he make!

"Hmph, bold dog minion, do you know that Zhou Xiong is an official of the court and your master, sue the master as a slave, if you can't show evidence, be careful of your dog head!"

Wang Huazhen was full of authority, his eyes widened, and the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground trembled. But he's also a thief, and since he sues him, he can't care about anything!

"Your Excellency, please look at this!"

As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized thing from his arms, put his hands on top of his head, and his subordinates took it and sent it to Wang Huazhen's hands.

Wang Huazhen looked at it, and immediately frowned, this is a brass Buddha statue, heavy, smiling, with a big belly, sitting on the lotus platform, it is Maitreya Buddha. But what is strange is that there are four small heads on the head of Maitreya Buddha, each with a different expression, which is the four kinds of joy, anger and sorrow!

"What the hell is this? How can there be such a Buddha statue, you want to play tricks on your own officials? ”

"The little one doesn't dare, please Mingjian, this is Zhou Xiong's belongings, and there is a lotus flower behind the Buddha statue, which is the Maitreya statue of the White Lotus Sect. Zhou Xiong colluded with the White Lotus bandits, the little one would never dare to lie! ”

White Lotus Sect!

The three words were like a heavy hammer, smashing into Wang Huazhen's heart!

Since Lao Zhu took down the country with the help of the White Lotus Sect, he turned his head and cleaned up the White Lotus Sect fiercely, and the two sides became mortal enemies. Far from perishing, the White Lotus Sect kept changing its face, like an undispersed ghost, entangled with the Ming Dynasty all the time!

The White Lotus Sect has always been in turmoil, with rivers of blood and corpses piling up like mountains, not only the military and civilians, but also many court officials have to fall to the ground!

To put it bluntly, defeat in Liaodong may not lose your head, but when it comes to the White Lotus Sect, it is absolutely lifeless!

Wang Huazhen has a bright future, if there are activities of the White Lotus Sect under his rule, and the dignified Jinyi Counselor General is also involved, if the army is controlled by the White Lotus Sect, the consequences will be unimaginable!

"You tell the official the original, how did you know that Zhou Xiong had an affair with the White Lotus Sect, and if you dare to hide a word, the official will not forgive!"

Wang Huazhen is not a good man and a woman, put all the big punishments on the table, and after a torture, this guy finally explained the matter honestly.

The middle-aged man is called Hong Sanduo, who is Zhou Xiong's second housekeeper, and a month ago, Zhou Xiong's younger brother Zhou Ting was drunk. actually ran to Hong Sanduo's house and defiled Hong Sanduo's daughter.

Afterwards, Zhou Ting refused to admit it, and beat Hong Sanduo, and Hong Sanduo held a grudge. The younger brother owes the debt and the elder brother repays. He and Zhou Xiong's third aunt and wife were not clean in private, and Hong Sanduo was ready to say that the lover was blowing the wind on the pillow. The third aunt unexpectedly took out a strange Buddha statue. said that Zhou Xiong was wearing it with him and threw it in her room.

Hong Sanduo felt that the Buddha statue was weird, so he inquired privately, but someone told him that this was a Buddha statue of the White Lotus Sect. Hong Sanduo was suddenly happier than picking up the dog's head gold, and Zhou Xiong's handle was finally caught in his hand!

He thought twice and ran directly to Quang Ninh. Tell Wang Huazhen.

asked three times, and beat Hong Sanduo's ass to pieces, he even explained how many times he slept with the third aunt's wife, and Zhou Xiong's deeds over the years were also revealed.

After Wang Huazhen listened, she was speechless for a long time. He sat down in his chair and didn't move!

The subordinates actually came out of the White Lotus Sect, and the charge of the royal majesty was not strict, and what was even worse was that Wang Huazhen did not have many soldiers in his hands, if Zhou Xiong jumped over the wall in a hurry and colluded with the White Lotus Sect to cause chaos, he was afraid that there would be chaos outside Shanhaiguan.

Now Xiong Tingbi has an army of 180,000 and confronts Jiannu, once the rear is chaotic. The old slave must take advantage of the weakness......

Wang Huazhen almost didn't dare to think about it, her limbs were cold and cold.

"My lord, something is wrong. The military supplies destined for Daqing Fort have been hijacked! ”

The house leak happened to rain overnight, Wang Huazhen beat his chest and gritted his teeth!

"Go, call Sun Degong, order all the soldiers in Guangning, and go to Yizhou with this officer."

Preparing for action. Suddenly, there was another sound of footsteps outside, and another family member ran in.

If there are many lice, do not bite. If you have too much debt, you don't have to worry. Wang Huazhen was not afraid, and simply said: "What's the bad news." It's all said together! ”

"My lord, it's not a bad thing, it's Lord Zhang, he sent someone over!"

"Which Lord Zhang?"

"Lord Zhang Kezhang, the preparation of the Great Qing Fort!"

"Ahh Wang Huazhen seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and hurriedly said: "Please, please!" ”

……

After more than a day of work, my arm was swollen from moving things, my waist was broken, my leg was broken, and I was still smirking on my face.

The soldiers of Daqing Fort realized what pain meant and were happy. According to the preliminary count, there were more than 3,000 taels of gold, nearly 400,000 taels of silver, more than 50,000 stones of grain, more than 1,200 war horses, more than 2,000 pack horses, and the rest of the cattle and sheep were not counted.

What excites Zhang Ke even more is that the White Lotus Sect has been in business for many years, and Shuanglong Mountain is like a small society with all kinds of organs.

Blacksmiths, carpenters, masons, kiln brick-making workers, doctors, veterinarians are all available, and even the White Lotus Sect kidnapped more than a dozen craftsmen who made weapons, all of which fell into Zhang Ke's hands.

In addition, a large amount of ammunition also made Zhang Ke's heart pound, 1,200 pairs of armor, 28 Franc cannons, 50 tiger squat cannons, an incalculable number of knives, guns and sticks, and a large number of gunpowder bullets, which can equip at least 2,000 soldiers, the ambition of the White Lotus Sect is indeed not small, but it is in vain to make wedding clothes for others!

Zhang Ke conservatively estimated that after digesting all these things, the strength of Daqing Fort would be at least tripled, and he would not have to worry about eating and drinking for the whole year!

Some time ago, Zhang Ke was still thinking about suppressing bandits, but now that he looks, a White Lotus Sect can withstand dozens of downhill tigers!

With so many seizures, if others knew about it, they would be red-eyed, and what we have to do now is to hurry up and settle down. Zhang Ke hurriedly ordered the soldiers to immediately transport goods to Daqing Fort and Zhenyi Fort, all the pack horses were used, and even the captured White Lotus Sect Qingzhuang was also driven, carrying them on their shoulders, and the long procession was like ants moving.

Someone was carrying supplies, someone was counting the merits of the head, but Zhang Ke locked himself in the house, looking at the accounts and letters intently.

The more he looked at Zhang Ke, the more sober he became, his judgment was not wrong, and the White Lotus Sect did act as a bridge between the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia. In addition to the normal horse market, there is also a large amount of smuggled goods, the amount of which is eye-popping!

The annual trade in the horse market is almost 100,000, and the smuggling is at least 10 times the normal trade value. Almost all the dungeon guards along the line were spared!

Zhang Ke originally thought that he had won the god list, but now that he looks at it, it is clearly the book of life and death! There is still a glimmer of life in the god list, and this pile of things in front of you is negligent but not leaky!

The law does not hold the public accountable!

Putting down the ledger, Zhang Ke rubbed his eyes painfully, things were a little difficult to handle.

"My lord, my lord, Lord Wang is here, come and greet me!"

Ma Biao shouted anxiously, Zhang Ke was suddenly startled, and hurriedly strode out. (To be continued)
