Chapter 82 The Silver in Li Yun Zeng Guofan's Black Cauldron

There is one more chapter in the early morning.,Try to update four chapters a day in the future.,Ask for recommendations, ask for collections, ask for monthly passes.。

Liu Mingchuan, Wu Changqing, and Liu Bingzhang looked at each other, and they couldn't believe what Li Hongzhang said, Heshen, the first embezzler in the Qing Dynasty, was not so powerful in looting silver, one million taels a day! Do you still need to fight! It's okay to buy an emperor locally!

"I know you don't believe it, but I've seen it with my own eyes! My teacher Zeng Guofan kidnapped the hugely rich Tao Wei and Yang Cai in Hunan, and it took 50,000 taels of silver to get the city full of storms!

It's really three hundred and sixty lines, and the line is the champion, and this raising of military salaries still depends on professionals! If Li Hongzhang hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have felt that it was true.

Liu Mingchuan revealed his ** nature and shouted: "Since there is such a talent, how can adults miss it, whose name is it?" If you tie him up, you will be obedient and obedient. ”

Li Hongzhang said: "Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, your bull temper should be changed, that person's official position is a guerrilla general, a fourth-grade military attachΓ©, not something we can provoke." ”

Wu Changqing patted his forehead and said, "Do you know how he looted the silver?" We can learn from it, even if we can't scrape a million, three or four hundred thousand is enough! ”

The method of scraping silver Li Hongzhang is really difficult to say, he is the editor of the Han Forest Academy of the Qing Dynasty, how can he do such a thing.

"This still needs to be done by professionals, and you are not suitable." These are all his descendants, and they will be reused in the future, how can they carry the black pot.

Liu Mingchuan sat back disappointed and muttered: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, let's wait for someone to come to the door?" It's better to visit the door, and you can get closer, and there will be an excuse to ask him for help in the future. ”

Li Hongzhang said secretly: What this reckless man said makes sense, it seems that I will visit tomorrow.

Hu Kuan listened to the master's report on the good things Li Yunzhong had done in the county office, and immediately jumped out of bed, his head was no longer dizzy, his waist was not sore, and he put on his shoes and was about to run to the lobby.

The master pulled the sleeve of the magistrate and persuaded: "The adults can't go, this matter has nothing to do with the adults, and the adults should continue to be sick." ”

Hu Kuan retorted loudly as if his eyebrows were burning: "The incident happened under my rule, how can I escape the involvement, I still persuade the general to restrain himself from the precipice and let the people go quickly, so that it will end well." ”

The master said bitterly: "That guerrilla master has planned for so long and done so thoroughly, how can he give up easily, I am afraid that the lord will make both sides not people, and both sides will be offended, and the court will ask if the guilt is, and no one will speak for you!" The adults continued to get sick, pretending not to know about it, and maybe they could fool it. ”

"Fooling the past? This is one million taels, how can I be fooled, I still go and persuade the general to ask him to collect less, just ask for fifty or sixty thousand taels. Hu Kuan walked back and forth in the room, and after a while, rows of fine sweat appeared on his face.

The master continued to stop the magistrate, alarmist: "This blackmailing squire is more than accepting bribes, maybe he will be sentenced to be executed immediately, how can this general be so Meng Lang, forget about trapping himself, and even cause us to worry and be afraid." ”

"Master, you don't understand, the guerrilla master was sent to fight in the south of the Yangtze River, he wanted to recruit more brave men to fight, even if the court asked for the crime in the future, he could also make some merits first, and then someone in the court spoke for him, at most it was a merit and a demerit...... Scapegoat? Hu Kuan thought of the scapegoat, and his heart jumped, the incident happened in his county, and the victim was also a county squire, isn't he the best scapegoat!

Seeing that Zhixian's face was colorless, the master comforted: "Your Excellency, you are too careful, how can the imperial court attack your adult indiscriminately." ”

It's better to make a plan early, and when the matter is over, I still have to flee back to the countryside, and I can't follow Hu Zhixian anymore, in case the magistrate is sentenced to be executed, won't I also be exiled! Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes!

I don't know how many people had difficulty sleeping this night, some were frightened, some gritted their teeth, some were envious and jealous......

In the early morning, the birds on the branches chirped, and the sun quickly rose from the horizon, blooming red and red, and a breeze blew and became cool. It reminds people that spring has come.

Hu Mengjun estimated that the general had already gotten up, and came to the courtyard early in the morning, and saw Li Yunzhong slowly boxing.

"General, those squires were waiting outside early in the morning, but a few of them didn't come, and it seems that they don't want to pay for ransom."

Li Yunzhong sneered: "I didn't expect that there are still people who have a fluke mentality, Zhong Lin!" You go to the prison and pick up a person who has committed a great crime, drag him to the vegetable market and cut it down! ”

Zhong Lin was 100% obedient to Li Yunzhong, and he wouldn't ask what was going on, so he immediately took the order and turned around.

Hu Mengjun worried: "Is this too hasty, the county execution should be reported to the government, and then the prefect will report to the province, and the province will report to the criminal department, and the criminal department will review the beheading of the prison marquis reported from all over the country in October, called the 'autumn trial', and the heinous crimes will be handed over to the emperor for execution, and the death penalty can only be carried out in the autumn and winter. ”

"Mengjun is too worried, let's go, we'll meet these squires!" Li Yunzhong has already decided to have a showdown with Hu Mengjun after collecting the money.

Nineteen squires saw Li Yunzhong come in, all looked at him with frightened eyes, yesterday many people wanted to take their families to the countryside for a while, but they didn't expect that a group of green battalion soldiers had already guarded the four gates, and ordinary people could enter and leave freely, but they were not allowed to go out of the city.

Li Guoguo bowed his head and said: "We have agreed to the general's conditions, but it is really difficult to make up such a large amount of money for a while, and I don't know if we can grace it for a few days." ”

"I don't have the time to wait with you, I must pay the military pay this morning, otherwise don't blame the official for being polite!" Li Yunzhong deliberately turned the topic to Zeng Guofan.

Li Guoguo asked, "Military salary?" I don't know who ordered the general to act like this, so I'll wait to see you one or two. ”

A group of squires echoed in unison: "Yes, please let the general know." ”

Li Yunzhong said with a smile: "We are not afraid of the sky, we are not afraid of the earth, we did such a thing when we were in Hunan, and the court still does not turn a blind eye, I advise you to hand over the silver obediently, so as not to ask for hardship." ”

Zhou Di heard that it was the lord of Zeng Guo's domain, and suddenly realized: "This increase in shaving his head is really shameless, last month we refused his donation, he used such despicable means to retaliate against us, is there any royal law, at the beginning of the mouth kept saying that it was only 30,000 taels, I didn't expect him to be so greedy." ”

Li Yun relayed oil to the fire: "Our Lord Zeng said, we should pay attention to reputation in Hunan, don't do too much, but don't worry about other provinces, do it boldly, if something happens, he will carry it, the court is now the time to employ people, don't dare to touch him, otherwise he will provoke someone Zeng, and he will take the Hunan army to surrender to thieves, and he will not regret it after seeing that he is the emperor!" ”

Li Guoguo gritted his teeth and scolded: "Hunan Yankees don't have a good thing, the last time Jiang Zhongyuan gave us both soft and hard to donate silver and food, I didn't expect Zeng Guofan to directly kidnap and blackmail, and his Hunan army went to Jiangxi to suppress thieves or scourge the place!" ”

Scold, scold, I won't be angry, Li Yunzhong snickered, and said righteously: "Our Hunan army has come all the way from Hunan to Jiangxi to fight for you, and you Jiangxi people still talk nonsense, refuse to provide food and salary, and dare to fight our Hunan army's idea, which makes Zeng Dashuai very angry, let me teach you a good lesson, see blood, and let you know what it means to be afraid!" ”

Zhou Di hung his head and said dejectedly: "Since it is the command of the Hunan army Zeng Guofan, the governor will not send troops to save him!" We admit it, but we Jiangxi people will not give up, your Hunan army raises thieves and self-respect, and sooner or later there will be a bad day. ”

This Jiangxi governor is Jiang Zhongyuan, he is also a Hunan Yankee, and he will definitely stand on Zeng Guofan's side! Zhou Di thought indignantly.

Li Yunzhong said with a smile: "That's right, anyone who doesn't pay the money in the morning, the criminals will be executed, this is what Lord Zeng has told me thousands of times, I don't dare to disobey the military order." ”

Li Guoguo hurriedly said: "There is still an hour to go, and I will leave." ”
