Chapter 287: Bai Qing Goes to the Village (4)
Qi Ke pondered a little, and was even willing to give up the loot, this kind of strength that she had to die, this captain of the guard was very likely to be the gang of gold diggers in the river valley, unless the Shen family knew that the death of the former patriarch was related to her, otherwise just based on the grievances on the surface, it would not be possible to reach the point of not dying.
What she was more curious about was how the Shen family was sure that she was the one who ate black?
However, Qi Ke was also curious for a while and put it aside, in the matter of gold dust, she planned to cover the water with soldiers.
"It's a shame that I didn't get my way."
"You're gloating."
"They call it lifting a stone and hitting themselves in the foot, thinking that they have everything under control, and now they can smash a broken bone." Qi Ke's eyes rolled, "The Shen family has a lot of properties in the county, their big mansion is quite valuable, and there are all kinds of shops." ”
"What do you want to do?"
"I don't want more, who is the captain of the guard who is following the order, I will ask for the personal property of the Shen family as compensation, how about it?"
Bai Qing smiled, but he didn't refuse, and Qi Ke gave them an idea, kill the Shen family, the industry they gave out, instead of letting other businessmen and wealthy families in the county take over, why not cheap their own people, the army can't do business, but military families can do a small business.
"Okay, when the government has collected the evidence and witnesses, the ones who should be arrested will be arrested, those who should be closed, and the judgment will be judged, and everything will be done, and then we will see how much we can divide you."
Qi Kecai rubbed his hands in confusion, "I'll just wait." ”
Qin Chuan and Cheng Feng, who had been silently eating tea eggs on the side, secretly glanced at each other, and both saw the light in each other's eyes, Qi Ke really pointed out a good way.
Their Baijia army used to be in the north all the year round, the environment was harsh, from the army to the bottom of the military households must be closely grouped to survive, so the army did not have the habit of bullying military households, other families are military households training and raising weapons and equipment on their own, this is the heaviest burden on military households by the Bai family army, the main responsibility of the military household is to work hard, provide food and grass materials, and seriously train and supplement the troops.
But there is a disadvantage in this way, the army has no money, the military households have no money, they are so poor that they are very dependent on the military salaries and grass regularly transported by the imperial court, and they can not do many things by deducting hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
Feeling the substantial gaze of the two subordinates, Bai Qing took advantage of Qi Ke's bowing head to add tea to them, and gave them a slightly calm look.
Qin Chuan and Cheng Feng immediately put their hearts back in their stomachs.
It's settled.
"Is the road in the mountains easy to walk?"
"It's okay on a sunny day, it's definitely not good to walk on a rainy day, yesterday someone went up the mountain to collect firewood after the rain, slipped and twisted his foot, his companion carried him down the mountain, two people walked and slipped and fell, rolled a muddy back, and the injured person was more seriously injured."
"Hmm......" What if you want to laugh at such an unfortunate event.
"What do you think?"
"Naturally, I want to go up the mountain to see your gunpowder test site."
"Oh, that's going to have to be sunny for days on end, and the ground will dry before you can go."
"So I think it's a pity that I might not see it tomorrow."
"Next time, when I get the title deed and give me the mountain forest, as long as it doesn't rain, I will definitely take you into the mountain, and you can also get some explosives packs, I will definitely prepare a few in advance."
That small valley suitable for gunpowder tests really exists, Qi Ke found it when he was walking around the mountains in order to set up the formation, if Bai Qing had to go to the mountains tomorrow to see her, he would have to arrange it overnight.
