As soon as Luan drove and his entourage on the second day, Liu Yu asked Cai Yingnu to lead the guards to go to the next city to exchange for silver tickets with the secret tickets given by Hu Liangcheng yesterday. At this time, Liu Yu was leaning on the soft quilt, reading the book and watching his own woman play cards.

"How much?" Seeing Cai Yingnu standing below, Liu Yu asked casually.

"One hundred thousand taels."

Liu Yu's expression has not changed, yesterday he walked around the city, and he could get 100,000 taels when he came back, Liu Yuxin said that this Hu Liang became a knot Liu Yu is really bloody.

Liu Yu took over the silver tickets, all of which were large silver tickets of 1,000 taels and 100 tickets. Liu Yu sighed, since Hu Liangcheng can take out 100,000 taels to honor him, it means that Hu Liangcheng has embezzled and accepted bribes enough to take hundreds of thousands of taels, and the annual fiscal and tax revenue of Antao County is only 100,000 taels. More than a year after Hu Liangcheng took office, he was greedy for at least four or five years of local finance and taxes, and this person is still a "good hand" at accumulating wealth.

"This surnamed Hu is too lawless." When he learned that the 100,000 taels were sent by Hu Liangcheng, the Taishou of Andao County, even Qi'er, who had always ignored them, was indignant, "Xianggong, let's take him to punishment." ”

"Don't worry, if you want to punish the crime, you have to wait for us to come back, and now we have to thank him for giving us money to fight, 100,000 taels is really not a small amount."

Qi'er stuck out her tongue and continued to touch the cards and play cards, while Liu Yu also seemed to be very forgetful and continued to read his book review.

Cai Yingnu saw that Liu Yu didn't say anything to her, so she was stupid and wanted to retreat, Liu Yu suddenly asked again: "Guard Cai, didn't you let you enter the city and ask how the blood booklet was going by the way." Do you have any questions? ”

Cai Yingnu said: "I have asked." But no one in the city dared to take it. said that he couldn't afford such a deal, and no one could distinguish the authenticity. ”

Liu Yu said with a little annoyance on his face: "This Hu Liangcheng, what is it not good to give this booklet, isn't it better to give an extra 10,000 taels of silver directly, where can I go to find someone to sell it for silver?" ”

Xu Xuanzhu said with a smile: "Just keep it for now, and it's not too late to go back to Chang'an City to make a move." ”

"No, no, no, now we are short of silver, and without silver, we won't have to fight this battle. A tael of silver is a hundred taels of flowers. When we return to Chang'an City, we will not be short of silver, so it doesn't matter if this broken book is sold or not. How far is it from the next county? ”

Cai Yingnu said: "There are still ninety miles away from Huaixi County, and I may not be able to arrive today." ”

"Huaixi County? This place is so familiar, is Huaishang County just ahead? This is a treasure of feng shui. ”

Qi'er and the Han sisters don't know, and Cai Yingnu doesn't know either, but Xu Xuanzhu understands what Liu Yu said very well, the bank of the Kwaishui River is not only Xu Xuanzhu's sad place, but also the place where she and Liu Yu fell in love, and Liu Yu's rise was precisely because of the battle against the Turkic Iron Wolf Guard by the Kwaishui River.

After Luan drove for a day, Liu Yue deliberately asked the team to speed up. That night, we had to spend the night outside Huaixi County. Originally, they would have traveled sixty or seventy miles in one day, but they had traveled more than 100 miles in one day. There is also very little time to rest on the road.

When it was still more than ten miles away from Huaixi County, the officials of Huaixi County also came out early to greet them outside the post house. Liu Yu was waiting for this group of officials, and when he got the news, Liu Yu got off the carriage, rode to the front of the team, and met with the team of magistrates headed by Gong Shancai, the county guard of Huaixi County.

"Good wealth, good name, Gong Taishou is very good at accumulating wealth?" Liu Yu stepped forward, like an old friend who had not seen him for many years, and asked in parallel with Gong Shancai's shoulder.

Gong Shancai's eyes glared and said: "The general said that the talent of the subordinate is not the wealth of wealth, but the talent of learning." ”

"Oh, I see. Hehe, Gong Taishou, you know that I am a rough person, I am good at killing enemies or something, I am not very good at this dance and ink, I can't compare with a knowledgeable person like Gong Taishou. ”

Gong Shancai was a little confused, Liu Yu took out the book given to him by Hu Liangcheng from his arms and said: "Gong Taishou, I have something here, you can show it, is it worth it?" ”

Gong Shancai cautiously took the bookpost in Liu Yu's hand and looked at it, his eyes widened even more, and asked, "This thing...... How did the general get it? ”

"An old friend gave it, he said it was a good thing, I don't understand it, so I asked you to come to the palm of your hand, how about it, is this thing worth it?"

Gong Shancai said seriously: "This is a rare treasure post, it is easy to get a thousand gold, but it is difficult to get a treasure post!" ”

"Huh? But so? Liu Yu snatched back the bookmark in Gong Shancai's hand, took it in his hand and observed it carefully, "Then I have to take a good look at it, there are some words written on it, it is really worth a thousand gold?" Gong Taishou didn't lie to me, did he? ”

Gong Shancai said respectfully: "The lower officials don't dare to deceive. ”

"If it's a treasure, this ...... I don't even know where to put it, I was going to go home and pad the table legs, it turns out that this is such a good thing. Liu Yu sighed to himself for a while, and then approached Gong Shancai and said, "Gong Taishou, I'm just a vulgar martial artist, I don't understand this treasure when I have it, and it's useless to keep it, presumably Gong Taishou should be good at studying this thing, so it's better to ...... Just exchange it for a thousand gold. ”

"Huh?" Gong Shancai looked at Liu Yu with a shocked look.

"Didn't Gong Taishou say, it's easy to get a thousand gold, but it's difficult to get this thing, so it must be above the value of a thousand gold. Now that Gong is too cheap to guard you, he will sell you a thousand gold, what do you think? ”

One thousand gold is twenty or thirty thousand taels of silver according to the market price, and Gong Shancai looked embarrassed: "General Haihan, the lower officials don't have so much gold and can't afford it." ”

Liu Yuxin said that he had known the Tao for a long time, and he had investigated very clearly before he came, this is an old pedant who only admits death, does not know how to be flexible and does not know how to accumulate money, it is better to say that he is a clean official, and he is not greedy for money and cannot govern a good place. And Gong Shancai's meanness has long been famous.

Liu Yu sighed: "Such a good thing, now General Ben knows that Lu Dao is worth a thousand gold, and he will sell it if he knows it." I'm a person who doesn't like these things, but I like silver...... I like gold or something, you say, my old friend gave me such a thing, isn't it the tyrannical thing? Gong Taishou, it's better to go back to Huaixi County and ask if anyone likes this thing, let him buy it with a thousand gold. ”

Gong Shancai blinked, he couldn't even recognize the obscene and money-greedy man in front of him.

"The general is rich all over the world, and he ...... Lack of this bit of silver? ”

Liu Yu sighed again: "Silver, no one is too much, don't you always say?" Could it be that Gong Taishou doesn't give face and doesn't plan to help this little favor? ”

Gong Shancai had a bitter face, originally he greeted the Son of Heaven according to etiquette, but who knew that he was knocked out by Liu Yu when he came up, and now he asked him to go back to help contact the person who was ripped off. Gong Shancai felt as shameful as a prostitute, but when he saw Liu Yu's face raised and looked like he was about to kill someone, he could only swallow a mouthful of saliva and said, "Xiaguan...... Let's go back and ask. ”

Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Gong Taishou is worthy of being a person who likes to help people." ”

Liu Yu smiled and sent Gong Shancai away, only then did he return to his original appearance, and smiled slightly, and at this time, Liu Zhao and Liu Ding appeared in front of Liu Yu. Liu Zhao still looked like someone owed him money, but at this time, Liu Ding seemed to have done something wrong, and he didn't dare to look up at Liu Yu.

"What are you going to do?" Liu Zhao saw Liu Yu from afar and said a few words to Gong Shancai, the Taishou of Huaixi County, Gong Shancai hurriedly went back to the city, and when he came over, he asked with a slap on his face.

"Oh, Father. I met an old friend and chatted with him. ”

Liu Zhao already knew about his son's heroic deeds by the Kwai River, but as far as he knew, the original Huaixi County Guard was not the current Gong Shancai, Liu Yue said that it was an old friend, and most of it was a prevarication.

"Let your seventh brother stay by your side, and think about what you are doing for your father, do you know Lu Dao?"

Liu Yu nodded with a smile and said, "Then do it according to my father's wishes." ”

Liu Zhao threw Liu Ding down, and he seemed to leave without worry, and when only Liu Yu and Liu Ding were left, Liu Ding's expression was even more unnatural.

"Seventh brother, we left in too much hurry yesterday, and we forgot to ask, Seventh brother, what is your matter...... But it's done? ”

Liu Ding's cheek expression was very unnatural, he lowered his head, nodded first, and then shook his head.

"What the hell is it...... Still didn't work out? Liu asked again with concern.

Liu Dingzhi said: "At first...... That's it. ”

"Oh, I see, that's not embarrassing. But Brother Seven, you don't have to worry, you know about it, I don't know it, I won't change my tongue, I guess Brother Seven, you won't either? ”

Liu Dingding nodded: "Yes." ”

"That's a good brother." Liu Yu hugged Liu Ding's shoulders, making Liu Ding feel ashamed.

Liu Yue knew that there would definitely be a lot of things to do if Liu Zhao set off with Luan, and Liu Zhao was nominally his father, this year, the monarch's father and brother, the number of etiquette is more troublesome than the other, Liu Yue can't show Liu Zhao's face when he is in a high position, otherwise he will be gossiped. Now Liu Zhao is confident that Liu Ding, who is a "good baby", was bought by Liu Yu with a move, which Liu Zhao never expected.

Liu Yu and Liu Dingxin made arrangements in the post house, arranged for a while, and the carriage driven by Tianzi Luan arrived outside the post house, Liu Yu first settled the female dependents, and after coming out, he saw Gong Shancai coming back alone.

"Gong Taishou, but has it fallen?" Liu Yu stepped forward and asked.

Gong Shancai's face was a little embarrassed, and immediately Liu Yu's face turned cold: "Gong Taishou won't go back empty-handed, right?" ”

Liu Yu expected that if he didn't have any news, he wouldn't come back so soon, and there was only one explanation for going back and forth, that is, Gong Shan found a buyer.

Gong Shancai hurriedly said: "General, the Taishou Mansion of Huaixi County is the Qingshui Yamen, and I don't have the money to exchange this treasure with the general." It's just that there is a huge rich man in the city, and he wants to exchange 2,000 gold for this thing in the general's hand, but I don't know ...... general."

Liu Yu finally understood why Gong Shancai was so embarrassed. In these years, as long as he is a businessman, he has no status, and a "huge rich", to put it bluntly, is a businessman with a low social status. Gong Shancai was afraid that Liu Yu, a child of the family, would look down on businessmen and refuse to do business with them.

And the huge rich themselves are willing to pay double the price to be the "wronged leader", just to change their social status.

Liu Yu smiled: "This relationship is good, why don't you hurry up and make arrangements?" (To be continued......)
