Chapter Seventy-Eight: Grain for Silver

At this time, the scene was silent, and it seemed that he had not yet recovered from the previous incident.

Jia Yun squatted in front of Jia Yao's corpse, sneered, reached out to lift Jia Yao's embroidered robe, and wiped the blood stains on the sword.

"You killed our general." Du Wei, the Yangzhou battalion who had returned to his senses, drew his sword and shouted at Jia Yun.

Jia Yun glanced back at the soldiers of the Yangzhou battalion, and seeing their tense appearance, Jia Yun stood up unhurriedly, put the sword back into the sheath, and said sharply: "Jia Yun disobeys the military order, and he should be cut according to the law. Betrayal! ....”

The people in the Yangzhou camp all looked at each other for a while, as Jia Yun said, Jia Yun held the Yangzhou battalion talisman, and issued a military order earlier, Yangzhou soldiers and horses are not allowed to be transferred, and they are not allowed to enter Dongguan Street, this is the military order.

No matter what Jia Yao's reason is, he is responsible for disobeying military orders, and Jia Yun can indeed be dealt with by military law.

It's just that everyone didn't expect Jia Yun to be so decisive, as soon as Jia Yu stepped into the alley with his right foot, he killed him with thunder, not giving him a chance to go to court at all.

Listening to Jia Yun's gloomy words, these generals of the Yangzhou battalion couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

Jia Yun snorted lightly, and everyone's expressions were in Jia Yun's expectation, the so-called "snakes don't go without heads, birds don't fly without heads." Jia Yao is dead, and the people below naturally dare not be rude to Jia Yun, the temporary Yangzhou camp master.

If they provoke Jia Yun and investigate them for leaving their posts without permission, they will not be able to eat and walk around, especially the "rebellion" in Jia Yun's mouth, which will affect their relatives.

There is a saying in the Great Cadre Law: "Anyone who conspires against rebellion or great rebellion but conspires with him shall be executed by Ling Chi, regardless of whether he is guilty of a crime, a grandfather, a father or son, a grandson, a brother and a person who lives together, regardless of the surname and the son of an uncle, uncle, father, or brother, and anyone who is of the same nationality or older than 16 years old, regardless of whether he is sick or disabled, he will be beheaded."

They are all soldiers, and they eat together, so there is no need to trap themselves and their relatives for the sake of a dead man.

Yangzhou Daying's eyes changed, and he immediately withdrew his sword, and said respectfully: "My subordinates don't dare, I obey the orders of my lord." ”

Immediately, everyone looked at each other, saluted respectfully, and said, "Obey the orders of your lordship." ”

Jia Yun nodded, but he is a smart person, Jia Yun has a talisman in his hand, as long as these people dare to do it, it is rebellious, and the crime cannot be punished.

Even if there are a few people who have eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall and want to "seek justice" for their general, the salt soldiers around Jia Yun are not vegetarians.

Immediately, Jia Yun instructed: "This official reminds you to inspect your respective jurisdictions, and if there is any disadvantage, this official's sword will not show mercy." ”

Yangzhou Daying Du Wei glanced at Jia Yun and responded, "Yes." ”

Jia Yun waved his hand, and the people in the Yangzhou camp retreated, as for Jia Yao's body, no one dared to open this mouth.

When the soldiers of the Yangzhou battalion retreated, Jia Yun turned his head and instructed Zhang Sheng: "Zhang Sheng, you take the salt soldiers to pay attention to the situation of the Wu family, if the disaster victims make too much trouble, bring people to stop it, but don't move roughly, ask them to come out, and the disaster victims outside the house don't have to be driven away, let them stay outside the house." ”

Although Jia Yun instigated the victims to make trouble, but not too much, if the victims started to rob, the homes of rich businessmen were robbed, where would the money donate, if there was no money to donate, Jia Yun's errand would not be completed.

However, stopping is stopping, these victims cannot be driven away, nor can they be afraid, after all, the fierce victims can put pressure on these wealthy businessmen and gentry, right?

Zhang Sheng said in a deep voice: "The subordinates obey the order. ”

Jia Yun nodded, the soldiers and horses of the Yangzhou battalion were stopped, and the rest naturally didn't need to be taken care of, the rest was to see the reaction of the wealthy merchants and gentry in Jiangnan, which didn't need Jia Yun to stare at it personally, just hand it over to the people below.

As for worrying about what the generals of the Yangzhou battalion are thinking, hehe...... These soldiers are soldiers of the Great Qian Dynasty, not private soldiers, if you don't want to be beheaded all over the house, you can only listen to Jia Yun's orders.

Yawning, Jia Yun stepped away, and instructed as he walked: "Zhang Sheng, you watch closely, this official will go back to the Yanzheng Yamen first to report to the prince, and if something goes wrong, send someone to inform the official." ”

After that, Jia Yun didn't wait for Zhang Sheng's answer and left directly.

Zhang Sheng was frightened at this time, and he was really startled by Jia Yun's different "ruthlessness" in the past, and he was busy responding.

...........

Wu Family Mansion.

In the main hall, more than a dozen people were shocked, even Wu Hai was the same, if he hadn't agreed to the request of these victims and promised to distribute food outside the palace gate, these victims didn't know what would have happened.

The old butler came from the back hall, stepped forward and whispered to Wu Hai: "Master, the ladies and ladies were just a little frightened, and now they are all resting. ”

Wu Hai nodded, suppressing the anger in his heart, these mud-legged people don't know what to do, they even broke into the back house, if it wasn't for the fast promise, there would be no shame in coming, and it was a laughing stock for Yangzhou scholars.

The housekeeper retreated, Wu Hai's face was gloomy, his eyes were gloomy, and he said, "The old man must want that Jia family boy to look good." ”

Obviously, this matter is counted on Jia Yun's head.

Everyone nodded when they heard this, Jia Yun's move was undoubtedly a reason for them, they had a close relationship with the officials of the DPRK and China, and they must have arranged for Jia Yun to be impeached, so that he could not eat and walked around.

The head of the Qian family said indignantly: "When Jia Yao brings the troops over, these mud legs can't be let go, and they will all be disposed of." ”

The victims broke into the main hall, and many of them were slightly injured during the pushing, and the red marks on the foreheads of the Qian family were thrown out by the victims.

In the eyes of the wealthy merchants and gentry, the victims of the disaster are not worth mentioning, even if they die more, it is okay, but the hateful thing is that they are almost planted in the hands of these mud legs, no matter how they shout, they ignore it, and at this time they send the disaster victims, and their hearts are naturally resentful.

Moreover, now that grain is being arranged outside the house, if Jia Yao doesn't come earlier, when the food is gone, he will have to make trouble again, and then the victims will not be so easy to talk to.

Everyone also agreed with the idea of the head of the Qian family, and they didn't let go of those who were disrespectful to them anyway.

Just as everyone was venting their anger, the butler walked in in a panic and hurriedly said, "Master, something is wrong." ”

Wu Hai raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but panic in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, but those mud legs are dishonest again?" ”

The housekeeper shook his head and said, "The victims are quiet, but something happened to the Yangzhou camp?" ”

"Yangzhou Daying?" Everyone was stunned for a while when they heard this, Sun Ming frowned and said, "Could it be that Jia Yao is unwilling to come forward?" ”

In their opinion, Jia Yao has been the commander of the Yangzhou battalion for many years, and it is impossible for others to be robbed of military power with a military talisman, the only possibility is that Jia Yao is unwilling to wade into this troubled water, although there is a "positive manager", but after all, he has to bear the responsibility.

The head of the Qian family snorted coldly: "He dares? If we hadn't paid for the money, would he have been able to sit in the position of a general? ”

After that, the head of the Qian family said to the housekeeper: "Go and tell him that we can let him sit in the position of the head of the Yangzhou camp, and we can also pull him down." ”

The people in the hall not only help Jia Yao sit in the position of the general of the Yangzhou battalion, but also give him dividends every year, but now that something has happened, he wants to stay out of the matter, try to ask everyone present, which one will agree? .

The housekeeper swallowed his saliva and said bitterly: "Then Jia Yun killed General Jia on the street, and the soldiers and horses of the Yangzhou battalion were withdrawn." ”

"Hiss........" Wu Hai on the main seat gasped and muttered, "How dare you do this." ...”

Jia Yan is Jia Yun's uncle, Jia Yun dares to kill him?

The housekeeper replied: "General Jia's body is still at the mouth of the alley, and no one dares to move. ”

At this time, Wu Hai's face was gloomy, he didn't say a word, and he seemed to be thinking about something in his heart.

Sun Ming, who was full of white hair, said with a solemn face: "Master Wu, what should we do next?" ”

Jia Yao died, and the other people in the Yangzhou camp didn't even dare to let out a fart, which showed that the Yangzhou camp had been suppressed by Jia Yun at this time, and the Yangzhou camp couldn't be counted on.

Without the protection of soldiers, their safety cannot be guaranteed.

Wu Hai groaned and sighed: "What else can I do, this kid doesn't recognize his six relatives, if it's really urgent, I can't say that we will follow in Jia Yao's footsteps." ”

Jia Yun even dared to kill his relatives, let alone these wealthy businessmen and gentry who had nothing to do with it! For the sake of safety, Wu Hai's tone softened, as if he was planning to compromise.

The head of the Qian family shouted unconvinced: "That kid dares? Since we have not broken the law, what right does he have to touch us. ”

Don't look at Jia Yun holding the military power, now is the "peaceful and prosperous era" Jia Yun Hu can't come, today Jia Yun dares to do it, tomorrow he will have to accompany the funeral.

Sun Ming, who was full of silver hair, shook his head when he heard this, daring to love this Qian family master still doesn't know the situation in front of him, judging from the current situation, if Jia Yun wants to do something to them, he only needs to incite the victims, and he doesn't need to go on the field in person, and when the victims are "making a big fuss", Jia Yun is taking action to solve it.

If you report the matter, I am afraid it will be in vain.

Qin Cha is the younger brother of the Son of Heaven and is loyal to the king, Jia Yun must have been gracious, and these people refused to donate disaster relief silver, which was already evil to Qin Cha, compared with the two, Jia Yun can be pushed clean with a "negligence", where can he cure his sins.....

Sun Ming ignored the Qian family, who was helped up by the Wu family, and said directly to Wu Hai: "Master Wu, although we have all stored a batch of grain, we are all settled in the outer city. There are nearly 1,000 victims outside the province, and there is also a steady stream of victims pouring in, so many victims, I am afraid that the surplus food in the province is insufficient, and the victims who cannot receive food will riot, which is not good for us......

What's more, even if we have enough food, it can't guarantee our safety. ”

The images of the victims who broke in were still in my mind, and if they did it again, their lives would be gone.

Sun Ming's meaning when he said this was also to remind Wu Hai and let him make a decision as soon as possible.

Wu Hai didn't know Sun Ming's voice, without the protection of soldiers, these thousands of victims were disasters, even if there was enough food, Jia Yun would not let the victims be satisfied.

Sighing, Wu Hai said helplessly: "People are swordsmen, I am fish and meat, solve it as soon as possible, let's pledge it!" ”

After a pause, Wu Hai continued: "The old man set an example and pledged 300,000 taels ....."

.......................

Salt Administration Yamen.

At this time, King Zhongshun looked at Jia Yun with a complicated expression, and was surprised by Jia Yun's behavior of "killing relatives with righteousness".

If this matter is to be done, the Yangzhou camp must be lived, and the key to the Yangzhou camp is to live in the Yangzhou camp.

originally thought that Jia Yun would only capture Jia Yao, but he never thought that the means would be so decisive.

After a moment of silence, the king said, "In this case, it is necessary for those salt merchants to bow their heads. ”

Jia Yun killed Jia Yao on the street, all of which showed that Jia Yun's methods were ruthless, and if the salt merchants were smart, they would definitely not resist again.

However, these salt merchants can amass money, and their minds must not be bad, and the current situation will not be unclear.

Jia Yun naturally knew it, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Wang, if the lower officials think well, after tonight, the results will definitely be available." ”

The Yangzhou camp that these rich families can count on was suppressed by Jia Yun, there was no foreign aid, and the checkpoints in Yangzhou were also guarded by Jia Yun, the news could not be transmitted in a short time, and in the dilemma situation, they were surrounded by a group of disaster victims, and they couldn't sleep well, how could these big men stand it?

As for thinking that Jia Yun didn't dare to do things too much, Jia Yao's incident has already shown Jia Yun's attitude, if he is still obsessed.... The end can be imagined.

King Zhongshun nodded, yawned easily, and said with a smile: "I thought this errand would be difficult, but I never thought it would go so smoothly, I guess we can go back to Beijing to run an errand in two days." ”

When Jia Yun heard this, he slandered in his heart, is this errand still easy to do? If he hadn't taken the risk of offending people, would he have been able to do this errand?

Of course, Jia Yun didn't dare to say this, who called the other party a prince.

After a pause, Jia Yun opened his mouth and suggested: "Lord Wang, the salt merchant has pledged to donate, this matter is estimated to be a sure thing, now we are thinking about how to buy grain, as far as the lower officials know, there is not much food stored on the market." ”

King Zhongshun frowned when he heard this, looked at Jia Yun thoughtfully, and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Jia Yun replied: "Lord Wang, in addition to building the river embankment, part of the silver we raise is to buy grain to help the victims. ”

Generally speaking, wealthy families will have surplus grain, and these salt merchants have transferred a lot of grain from other provinces to offset silver with grain, which can indeed save a lot of effort, and moreover, there is enough grain for disaster relief, and the price of grain in the disaster area will not skyrocket.

The king pondered for a moment and asked, "How can you pay for silver with grain?" ”

Jia Yun understands the meaning of the king of loyalty, with grain for silver, at what price should be replaced, Yangzhou is located in Jiangsu, adjacent to Henan, and Henan floods, Yangzhou's grain is naturally much higher than before, if according to Yangzhou's grain price at this time, with grain for silver, it is a lot of losses.

"Naturally, according to the price of food in the past." Jia Yun said as a matter of course.

Due to the floods in Henan, the grain prices in all provinces have moved, not to mention the grain stored in the rich merchants' mansions, those who transfer grain from other provinces, if they are offset with silver according to the previous grain prices, this is not a big loss, especially those who are ready to make a lot of money, they have to beat their chests.

The king of Zhongshun hesitated and asked, "What if they refuse to pay for silver?" ”

Jia Yun smiled: "Maybe there will be a riot tomorrow, maybe it's not right?" ”

The corners of Zhongshun's mouth twitched when he heard this, he didn't know why this honest and honest man in Beijing in front of him was so murderous, and he looked like he was eager to try, as if he was keen to take the salt merchants.....

With a deep groan, King Zhongshun felt that since they had pledged at this time, there was no need to make extraneous branches, if the persecution was too much, it would be difficult for someone to take risks, and in the end the gains outweighed the losses.

Shao leaned, and the king of Zhongshun said: "That's it, according to the previous price of grain, just give them two tiers, if they don't, then do something else." ”

When Jia Yun heard this, he felt that it was too much, eating other people's meat and sleeping with other people's wives was indeed excessive.

At this time, the next person told Wu Hai of the Wu family to ask for a meeting.

King Zhongshun looked at Jia Yun and said with a smile: "I'm impatient!" ”

said that he was impatient, but in Jia Yun's eyes, this wealthy businessman knew that he couldn't do anything, so he acted decisively and did not procrastinate.

King Zhongshun thought for a moment, planning to let Jia Yun be the vanguard first, to explore the way first, if it couldn't be done, he would come forward to solve it.

So he instructed: "Jia Yun, you will see him for me." ”

Jia Yun was stunned when he heard this, according to the meaning of the loyal king, he did not plan to come forward and let Jia Yun do this, nodded, and Jia Yun responded: "Yes." .....”

After saying that, Jia Yun walked towards the outside of the hall and met the salt merchant for a while.

PS: There are a lot of things today, just one chapter, forgive me.
