37. I wish you a straight up

Time flies.

After a few days, Yuanjiang City seems to have regained its former tranquility.

The streets were noisy, with people coming and going, and peddlers and pawns shouting and shouting.

At the door of the Qinglou, all kinds of young masters threw themselves into the arms of their favorite girls again.

In the restaurant, the guests drank wine and chatted.

It's just that the Zhou family's mansion, which was once full of people, is now dead.

The house, which had been built by encroaching on many people's houses, was now in the government's possession, but no one was willing to buy it.

It's just because all the people who pass by the Zhou family's mansion will feel an inexplicable chill.

The blood on the steps of the house has not been wiped clean, as if telling the scene of that night.

At the same time, from time to time on the street, you will see the brocade guards passing by on horseback, murderous.

In the vegetable market, people cut down batch after batch, and killed people's heads.

And during this period of time, the Jinyi Guard, who had been silent for many years, showed an unimaginable prestige in the entire Yuanjiang City boundary.

Even the news spread among the counties of the twelve counties of Dongchang Province like wings.

The three words of Jinyiwei have now really reached the level of children crying at night in Yuanjiang County, and even the entire Yuanjiang officialdom has presented a scene of "officials ruling Qingming".

After all, all corrupt officials have long been in prison.

Compared with the fear of officialdom and various forces, for ordinary people, they are more grateful while they are afraid.

His fields and houses have returned, and his former enemies have died, and there is nothing better than this.

As the saying goes, the people live on food, and whoever can let them eat their stomachs will be grateful.

And the premise of being able to eat a full stomach is to have land to plant.

……

100 households, west courtyard.

Lin Mang stood in the courtyard, looking at this small courtyard, somewhat reluctant.

When I turned around, there were already several people standing outside the courtyard.

"Your Excellency!"

A group of brocade guards knelt on one knee and saluted with fists.

Lin Mang smiled and said calmly: "Get up." ”

looked at Wang Dasheng and asked, "Have you finished handling the Zhou family's money?" ”

Wang Dasheng said solemnly: "According to your request, half of it will be confiscated, and the remaining half of it will be returned to the people, one percent will be given to the three sacrificed brothers, and one percent will be given to the brothers." ”

After speaking, he took out a stack of silver tickets from his bosom, presented them to Lin Mang, and said, "My lord, this is all the remaining property, a total of 20,000 taels." ”

Lin Mang took the silver ticket, and sighed in his heart, this Zhou family is worthy of being a wealthy family for nearly a hundred years, and the accumulated heritage is really extraordinary.

The cash silver found from the Zhou family is enough to have 30,000 taels of silver, in addition, there are various fields, houses, and shops under his name.

In fact, these are the real big heads, thinking that he was only a few acres of broken land, he could sell it for six hundred taels, and the Zhou family's fields were all high-quality and fertile land.

In addition, the mansions under the name of the Zhou family occupy the most prosperous position in the city, and their value is self-evident.

However, most of the assets of the Zhou family were obtained by exploiting the people, and the land and houses he had encroached on had been returned to the people.

Although he needed money, he did not take it from ordinary people.

In the end, the property counted by the raiders reached an astonishing 150,000 taels, not including some assets belonging to the people.

A wealthy family in Yuanjiang County has such assets, which shows how deep the background of those families should be.

But it can also be seen from this how hard the people of the Ming Dynasty lived.

Lin Mang took one last look at the small courtyard and closed the courtyard door, while a group of brocade guards silently followed behind.

Although they spent a short time with each other, the young boss made them admire in their hearts.

Outsiders all say that Jinyi Wei Lin Mang is a killing god, but only they know how good this boss is to his subordinates.

When Lin Mang walked out of the small courtyard, he found that the courtyard was full of brocade guards.

Chen Tiankui held the knife in one hand, and his face was still cold.

Lin Mang smiled and said loudly: "Everyone, thank you here!" ”

In any case, at the time of his departure, there were so many people who wanted to send it, and it was not in vain that he came to this matter.

Chen Tiankui said silently: "Take care all the way!" ”

At this moment, he suddenly didn't know whether it was right to send Lin Mang to Beijing.

For a moment, he suddenly wanted him to stay.

Because he knows too well what kind of place the capital is.

Wang Dasheng came with a horse, and his voice was slightly choked: "My lord, this horse is obtained from the Heavenly Sword Society, and it is a good horse that travels thousands of miles every day. ”

Lin Mang stretched out his hand to take the reins, hung the burden and embroidered spring knife on the horse, reached out and patted Wang Dasheng's shoulder, and said with a smile: "You will also be a small flag in the future, but don't learn from me." ”

"My lord......" Wang Dasheng wanted to speak and stopped.

He actually wanted to leave with Lord Lin, but he also knew that this was impossible, no matter how many hundreds of households could not enter Beijing, let alone him.

Lin Mang smiled and waved his hand, leading the horse to the gate of the hundred households.

"Squeaky ......"

The heavy vermilion gate let out a dull loud thud and slowly opened to both sides.

But when the door opened, Lin Mang was stunned.

Outside the gate of the hundred households, there were dense crowds of people.

In the crowd, an old man on crutches walked out and shouted hoarsely: "People of Washi Lane, Xu Xiandeng came to see off the adults, and I wish the adults a smooth future." ”

The old man was none other than Xu Xiandeng, the teacher who had died of his son in Washi Lane.

I heard that Lord Lin left today, so he came to see him off.

The dense crowd of people behind him knelt on the ground, but the chaotic voices seemed neat and consistent at this time:

"Washi Lane Luo Dou came to see off the adults."

"Qi Youmin from Washi Lane came to see off the adults."

"Washi Lane Zhang Wang came to see off the adult."

……

At this moment, the entire 100 households outside the house were obviously noisy, but it seemed to be extremely quiet.

Falling pins can be heard!

The gaze of many brocade guards is also extremely complicated.

They have only heard that the people sent the Qing officials to leave their posts, and how could they have heard that the people sent the Jinyi guards to leave their posts.

They are given the most names, but they are nothing more than eagle dogs and minions, and lackeys of the court.

But when they joined Jinyiwei, their ambitions were not for the country and the people.

Lin Mang was stunned and silent for a long time.

After a long time, Lin Mang suddenly smiled, led the horse and walked out, and said loudly: "Everyone, get up." ”

"I don't deserve it!"

When Lin Mang came, the people in front of him automatically separated into a road, and countless eyes converged.

Lin Mang led the horse and slowly walked towards the city gate.

Along the way, many people and a group of brocade guards followed behind.

All the way to the outside of Yuanjiang City.

Above the city gate, many county soldiers felt incredible at this scene.

Lin Mang turned over and got on his horse and arched his hand: "Everyone, send you a thousand miles, there will be a farewell, don't send each other again." ”

Then he tugged on the reins and rode his horse.

The sound of horses' hooves vibrates, and the black robe hunts!

On the distant horizon, a red sun is rising, and the morning sun is sprinkled all over the road from time.
