Yan Hong covered the brocade box with his hand and said with a smile: "Thank you so much." The little nephew told the truth, although he had a lot of money, he was only passing through the God of Wealth. The two banks in the family are the third brother, how dare I move, I have to deal with pomp and circumstance outside, and I have to raise a little lady, which is really too expensive, so you're welcome. ”

Seeing him behaving like this, Liu Cai let go of his heart even more, and said deliberately: "Speaking of which, the girl from the Spring Pavilion heard that she was also placed in the inn by the virtuous nephew?" As the saying goes, heroes are sad about beauty, and it doesn't matter if young people are lustful, but they also have to care about their bodies. Otherwise, you can leave a few hearty ones, and hand over the rest to Li Zhentai and put them in prison, do you think it's okay? The left and right are just some folk women, leaving a few stunning, and the rest don't feel how rare it is to come to the virtuous nephews. ”

Yan Hong shook his head like a rattle: "I can't do it, I can't do it." But you don't know the beauty of this, uncle. ”

Liu Cai said in his heart, although this gentleman is a favored son, he is really in the same vein as the old Yan Shifan of Xiaoge, and there is still a wonderful point. He was in a high position, and it was inconvenient for him to answer, so he had already commanded Gao Yanzong and said: "We are shallow, but we want to consult the old man of Qincha, what is the beauty of this?" ”

Yan Hong took advantage of the wine and said with a smile: "One, although Chang Shouye is an eyeless bastard, his ability to choose women is really not bad." This ring of fat swallows is thin, and they really have their own strengths. Second, these women are all from good families, and their shame has not gone, which is really not the same as the idle fans who are used to welcoming and sending them in the green building. Three, these women I left behind, they were all tortured and suffering in the Spring Appreciation Pavilion, and now Yan has rescued them from the sea of suffering, and they are against Yan. It's really dead. Serve willingly. That's what it tastes like. Hehe, I'm afraid you haven't tasted much, right? Haha......"

When the officials here heard Yan Hong say this, they all felt that this person was really a hero of the color country, and he actually figured out such a wonderful thing. On the other hand, he was no longer worried about what thunder tricks Yan Hong was going to take. Gao Yanzong said again: "The words of the old man of the Qin mission made the lower officials suddenly open. Still, these dozens of women. Even if the old man is cast from steel to iron, it is not easy to bear it all. ”

Yan Hong said: "So what? Those brocade guards who came with me saw these women, like hungry wolves seeing meat, without these women, how to appease them? Besides, even if I return to Kyori after the mission, I will be useful to these beauties. If you want to do everything in your way, use them to entertain guests. It's better than I paid for it. I'm really afraid of trouble, so I'll send them to the hook bar of the Jingshi when the time comes. I'm afraid it's not another sum of silver. Therefore, Uncle Liu forgive me, this person really can't let go. Besides, this is also the first case that the little nephew has come to handle, if it is anticlimactic, it will inevitably make people laugh. The person I saved, if there is any mistake in Jinan, where will my nephew put my face, do you say? ”

Liu Cai's temptation saw that Yan Hong's attitude was resolute, and this reason was full of philistine atmosphere, and he didn't have the slightest intention of using the topic to play and detain people to make a big deal, so he was relieved. Originally, Liu Cai also knew that Yan Hong was coming, and someone would be unlucky, but he hadn't thought about who he would throw out of Lu to die. As a result, the father and son of the Chang family bumped into the muzzle of the gun themselves, so don't blame him Liu Yingshi for not being emotional, and he can't be guilty of interceding for this confused father and son. As long as Yan Hong doesn't use this matter to blame other people, everything will naturally be fine.

After drinking a few more cups, Liu Cai said to Yan Hong: "Virtuous nephew, the old man is the best to collect treasured calligraphy and paintings, but he doesn't know the authenticity. Virtuous nephew, you will be able to distinguish the origin of your family, can you help the old man identify one or two? ”

Yan Hong also knew that the other party was an excuse, and no one would let him help appreciate antiques because of his reputation. This old man must have something to discuss, but it is inconvenient to talk about it in public. He also followed the other party's words and said: "The little nephew's ability is very loose, but the Shibo collection must be a good product, and the little nephew will open his eyes tonight." ”

The two of them left the table one after the other. Yan Hong followed Liu Cai to a remote house. This room is very clean and simply furnished. After the two of them entered the house and sat down, Liu Cai spoke: "I don't know if my father-in-law is an old man?" ”

"The ancestor is in good health, and he is very tough."

"In this way, I will rest assured, and when I go to Beijing to report on my work this time, I will go to visit his old man's home. But I don't know how Xiaoge's old body is? ”

"My father was last year, and he recruited a new aunt."

Liu Cai heard this and said with a smile: "The old dragon and tiger in the small pavilion are fierce, which is really the blessing of the imperial court. Virtuous nephew, the lady of the Sun family who came with you, but that female bandit you recruited in Feihu Mountain? ”

Yan Hong secretly admired Liu Cai's well-informed ears, and the news was very timely. Nodding his head, "Exactly." ”

Liu Cai shook his head and said, "Virtuous nephew, you are still in a bit of a hurry to do this." Even if it is a robber who recruits security, you should discuss it with the local government, and it is much better for the local government to come forward and endorse it than for you to rely on a single central decree. This time, in the court, I'm afraid I have to thank Bolan again. Fortunately, the old man has nothing else in his hands, there are always more than a dozen good knives and pens, and there are also some death row prisoners who can bear big crimes. When the limelight passed, the old man came forward and arranged for them to be given official positions to ensure the prestige of your virtuous nephew. ”

Yan Hong naturally understood that when the other party said this, he wanted to reorganize the past sins of Feihu Mountain and avoid the important ones. For example, killing officials and the like depends on others, and he can naturally find someone to top the bag. And if these people want to be military attaches in Shandong, they really can't do without the support of this old Liu Junmen. At the moment, he arched his hand and said: "There is such an old man." ”

Liu Cai smiled and said: "My own family, if you say so, you will see the outside." Virtuous nephew, you have a solid relationship with the old man, what do you think of the case of Appreciation Spring Pavilion? ”

Yan Hong said: "Shibo, this matter is actually really a coincidence. I came to Jinan to treat Sun's illness. I don't want to save a beautiful little lady by chance, and I have this constant karma to send me to death. I went down to Shandong this time, such a big pomp, if I don't fight a few tigers, it will be difficult to explain when I go back. Originally, I didn't want to make trouble in Jinan, so as not to lose Shibo's face, but he sent him to find death, and I can't blame me. When my little nephew was about to leave Beijing, my grandfather and father specially told me to let me arrive in Jinan. Everything is arranged by Liu Shibo. Don't do anything recklessly. If Shibo wants to keep Chang Taishou ......"

Hearing this, Liu Cai stood up, bowed in the direction of Beijing, and said: "My father-in-law and the elder of the little pavilion are as kind to me as a mountain. ”

Yan Hong hurriedly helped: "Uncle Shi's words are serious. Hurry up, please. ”

The two sat down again, and Liu Cai said, "You say so." The old man was relieved. To tell the truth, the old man has been running Jinan for many years, and he has spent a lot of hard work, but how dare the old man not understand the hardships of the virtuous nephew? often knows that filial piety to fathers and sons is so hateful, and the old man will never protect them again. I will also give the bottom today, the old man wants to protect the beams and pillars of the Shandong officialdom, but he will not spare every brick and tile. ”

Yan Hongzhi said, this is today's drama meat. This banquet has only tasted until now. Who are the beams and columns. Who is the brick and tile, it all depends on how Liu Cai chooses. At that moment, he said: "I don't know why Shibo taught me? ”

I saw Liu Cai stretch out his hand from his sleeve, took out a folded piece of paper and handed it to Yan Hong, and said, "Here are the names of ten people and their sins." Among them, there are not only the main halls of the prefecture and county, but also the commanders and general soldiers, and their heads are sufficient. And the list of culpables is even more certain, and they cannot be confused. ”

Yan Hong also knows that this is not only Liu Cai's consideration for his own performance, but also an opportunity to complete a reshuffle of Shandong officialdom. Most of these people are disobedient to Liu Caiyang, and Liu Cai doesn't know why, it's inconvenient to clean up, so he just borrowed his own knife to kill people. Immediately accepted the note and arched his hand: "Thank you so much for your trouble." ”

"Virtuous nephews, these are trivial things, not worth mentioning. At present, there is a great wealth, and you and my uncle and nephew need to work together to plan one or two. ”

Yan Hong was puzzled: "I would like to ask for details." ”

Liu Cai said slowly: "Now that Shandong has suffered a three-year disaster, there are many rich households with money and no grain in Jinan, and the price of grain in several surrounding provinces has soared. Virtuous nephew, you say, if you want to get rich now, what kind of business should you do? ”

Yan Hong said: "The soaring price of grain is naturally good for the grain business. It's just that when I went south this time, I only had 200,000 yuan of silver from the treasury, but I had no grain and grass, so I went to other places for transshipment, which was also extremely troublesome. ”

Liu Cai stretched out two fingers and said with a smile: "Virtuous nephew, why do you need to transfer it from other places?" There is food in Texas and Linqing, but they can't be transferred when they are idle. However, the virtuous nephew is a Qincha today, and he deals with Shandong's military and civilian affairs cheaply, but it is different. If the virtuous nephew sends a dime of documents and transfers its 100,000 stone of grain, we can not only relieve the famine and make a great contribution, but also sell the rich grain, and the money obtained is not a small amount. Wait until the price of grain comes down next year, and then purchase to make up the surplus, that is. ”

Although Yan Hong is a gentleman, he is not a fool. Hearing this suggestion, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly asked: "Shibo, the grain in these two places is military food. moved, but he was going to be killed. ”

It is important to know that although the grain stocks in these two places are large, they are all rice grains transported by Cao, which are responsible for transporting the military rations of the border guards to the nine borders. It is true that the officials involved in this matter can make a part of the deficit to enrich their own pockets through the means of drifting. However, this large-scale allocation of millions of stones is no longer a problem that drift has not been able to solve. And this kind of transfer, Rao is Liu Cai, as the governor, does not have this power.

Liu Cai smiled and said, "Virtuous nephew, why be nervous? The old man didn't know that it was military rations, but what about military rations? There is a father-in-law and a little pavilion elder in the court to support you, are you still afraid of any mistakes? And you don't need to pass the guard, only use your private seal, and when the time comes, you will only say that the private seal is lost, the letter is forged, and you can push it clean, who will dare to bite you and not let go? ”

Yan Hong sneered in his heart, Uncle Liu, you have a good plan. You must know that this misappropriation of military rations is not trivial. If you do the business of privately transferring military rations, you will only be cut off by the Yan Mansion. Let me do it, with my current position in front of the Yan Mansion and the Heavenly Family, the Yan Family will indeed carry the thunder for themselves. But the more you carry it, the more hatred you pull. I'm not stupid X.

He didn't know why Liu Cai had such thoughts, so he asked: "Shibo, you are the governor of the party, and you have a lot of power, so you must not be short of money." And if the military food is insufficient, and even the border defense is lost, my generation is a sinner of the country. ”

When Liu Cai heard this, he smiled and said: "Virtuous nephew, I heard that you are in the Yan Mansion and are in charge of the business in the mansion, could it be that this money is too heavy?" As for the matter of border food, there are no outsiders here anyway, and we will say some things in a clear place. First, millions of grains will be temporarily transferred to help the victims of the disaster in Shandong, and it will not be so easy to make the border defense short of food. This opportunity does not come every year. Besides, even if it is lacking for a while, so what? Now Wang Chen, the governor of Jiliao, has always been at odds with his father-in-law, and his son Wang Shizhen has openly collected Yang Jisheng's corpse, and Xiaoge has long wanted to do it. It's just that he is not very wrong, and it is difficult to shake it for a while. If this time it is really due to the lack of military food, let him fight a big defeat at the border pass, and then we will impeach him, are we afraid that he will not fall? There is an old Xiaoge, even if he wants to bite us back on the misappropriation of military rations, where will he collect evidence for a while? Therefore, when there is a food shortage in Jinan, it is a double win, even if the incident happens, it is also dangerous. The old man has long had this plan, but the number involved is too large, and the old man is not able to handle it, so he has to borrow the prestige of your nephew. This time the business is done, not to mention that it can also be recorded in the account of tens of thousands of taels of silver, and it can also make meritorious contributions to the imperial court and remove a big harm for the Yan family, why not?
