Zou Run saw that no one objected, so he explained to Chen Xuan, "Brother Chen Xuan, the ancients said: the reward is not overdue, the punishment is not overnight, Hugh will think I am harsh, at this time, don't rest, but you can't rest." There are still more than two hours before the evening banquet, so according to the old practice of the cottage, the number of rewards will be sorted out quickly. ”

Chen Xuan received the great favor of Zou Run last night, and he already had the heart of retribution, knelt directly on the hall, and knocked on the ground with his head, "The owner of the village tortures the villain, and the owner of the village avenges my hatred, just like my reborn parents, but what is the matter, just take the command, in the water and fire, I Chen Xuan will not frown!" I already have a draft of the money and food rewards, and I can now report it to the owner of the village and the leaders to know. ”

"According to the convention, the grain, cloth, livestock, etc., which were obtained yesterday, shall not be kept privately, but shall be put into the public treasury. The money obtained is 5,000 yuan, which is divided into two parts, one is included in the cottage treasury for public use, and the other is roughly divided into two parts, the large one is distributed to the leaders according to the number of people, and the small one is rewarded to the cottage brothers according to the number and merit. ”

"There are four leaders of the cottage, and each of them gets about 300 yuan in silver. There are more than 130 brothers in the cottage, and each of the leaders can get about 25 pieces of silver, and each of the minions can get about 8 pieces of silver! In the meantime, there are those who have made great contributions, and those who have been injured in the war, and Chen Xuan did not dare to be good at rewarding them, and asked the owner of the village to show ......"

Seeing that Chen Xuan had actually planned this matter before he was instructed by himself, Zou Run was very relieved, but for his reward plan, Zou Run planned to make some local adjustments, and just when he was about to say his adjustment opinion, he saw Yang Lin and Deng Fei in the chair standing up together.

Yang Lin has a sophisticated temperament, and said first: "The owner of the village is good, it's not that my brothers don't understand the rules, and dare to put their beaks in the cottage money and food, it's really that the two brothers have just gone up the mountain, and they have never had half a penny, and this reward must not have our names." ”

Deng Fei also said, "How can I not know the meaning of the owner's love?" It's just that it's useless, and I'm a person who wants to be faced! He slapped his chest crackling, for fear that he would be mistaken for a money-loving person, "Who doesn't like a lot of gold and silver?" But I only want to take it with the sword and gun in my hand! ”

This made Chen Xuan panic when he heard this, he already had a bit of selfishness in this plan, and he originally added his share of the reward to the two new leaders. But looking at the firm tone and serious faces of these two people, it seems that they are not pretending, but heartfelt words. I can't help but secretly wonder that there are such people in the world who don't love money?

"In that case, then, as the two brothers said, this reward will be changed again......

Yang Lin Deng Fei's move, as early as Zou Run expected, these two people are serious heroes, naturally unwilling to accept the reward of no merit, Chen Xuan's careful thinking he actually guessed a few points, but did not break it, after all, the water is clear, there is no fish, as long as the decision is firmly grasped in his own hands, the people below have a little action, Zou Run is not ready to kill with a stick.

His fingers tapped on the armrest of the chair, and Zou Run pondered for a moment before saying a new plan.

"Some changes were made in the original plan, and the big one was rewarded to the cottage brothers according to the number of people and merits, and the cottage brothers were more than 130 people, and the leader was rewarded with 30 silver coins each, and the minions were rewarded with 10 silver coins each. Those who have made meritorious contributions will be rewarded with an additional 5 to 20 strokes, depending on the size of their merits. The two brothers who were wounded in the battle will be rewarded with an additional ten times, and the cottage will bear all of their medical expenses! ”

"The small one, my uncle and I each took six hundred yuan, and the two leaders of Yang Lin and Deng Fei did not participate in the battle, so this reward will not be counted as their share for the time being. Is that good? ”

After Zou Run finished speaking, Zou Yuan, Yang Lin, and Deng Fei looked at each other and nodded, and the matter was settled.

Chen Xuan saw that the leaders had reached an agreement, so he was about to retreat and start distributing the property, but he might as well be stopped by Zou Run.

"Let's go to the account and withdraw three hundred yuan first."

Song Dynasty copper coins generally weigh 4 grams, consistent copper coins according to 600 pieces, each weight of 5 catties, 300 copper coins have 1500 catties, Zou Run wants to use money, Chen Xuan naturally can't stupidly carry over a few large boxes of copper coins, he just quickly came in with a large tray covered with red cloth.

Three hundred yuan is about three hundred taels of silver, almost more than thirty catties, Rao is Chen Xuan has already held it with both hands, but it still looks a little difficult.

Zou Run came down and lifted the red cloth, and there were six ingots of silver on the plate, each weighing about fifty taels, and the color was excellent. At this time, Zou Yuan already understood what Zou Run meant, he opened his mouth, and a trace of reluctance flashed on his face.

This is the best three hundred taels of snowflake silver......

With a smile on his face, Zou Run grabbed three ingots and walked in front of Yang Lin. "The reward for the two brothers has been refused, some meager gifts, but it is the younger brother's private property, the brothers are not slight, the right to make a gift to meet, please accept it." After speaking, he turned his head and motioned Chen Xuan to send the remaining tray containing the remaining three ingots of silver to Deng Fei.

What a big deal! Yang Lin and Deng Fei couldn't help but smack their tongues secretly.

They have been doing some private business on the rivers and lakes, and the so-called private business has a wide range of meanings, including but not limited to selling illegal salt, smuggling horses and tea, selling stolen goods, gambling and lending, and sometimes even robbing and cutting paths part-time. To put it bluntly, it is what to do with money, and it is illegal to buy and sell, and the risk is not small, when the year is good, in addition to the cost and consumption, hard work, and a year will add some three or five hundred yuan into the project.

All the property of ordinary people's well-off families is half of this amount, this meeting gift is not ungenerous, Yang Lin Deng Fei felt a little hot, looked at each other, and pushed back again.

"The two elder brothers dislike the younger brother and are not enough? Okay, Chen Xuan, go, take another three hundred yuan! ”

Seeing that these two straight men were blushing and refused to accept anything, Zou Run had no choice but to pretend to be angry, and the words were fierce.

Deng Fei Yang Lin was startled, Yang Lin hurriedly grabbed Chen Xuan, who was about to leave, and Deng Fei explained with a wry smile to Zou Run, "The owner of the village is so worried about us, how dare I underestimate the heart of the owner of the village?" The owner of the village has good intentions, and we naturally understand it, but it's just ......"

"Good! Do you hear that? Leader Deng said that he had received it, and since he had received it, it meant that he had accepted it. Zou Run didn't care so much, he took Deng Fei's words and forcibly decided the matter, "Come on, send this silver to the room prepared for the two leaders!" ”

Outside the hall, the minions who had been watching the excitement for a long time stepped forward, took the tray with a smile, turned around the Juyi Hall, and went to the back of the mountain. Two spacious and bright wings have already been prepared behind the mountain.

"Okay, okay, I didn't sleep all night last night, and I was sleepy for a long time, so I went to sleep first, and someone sent me to my room for lunch, and I was called up for dinner."

Zou Run yawned a few times, and under the pretext of going back to sleep, he motioned to the minions to stop the two, but he slipped away when he saw the opportunity, and did not forget to pull Zou Yuan, who was still reluctant to leave.

Now the two of them had no choice, so they had to accept the reality, Chen Xuan was a discerning person, and under the pretext of sorting out the accounts, he also got out of the way.

At this time, two minions came from the hall, and they clasped their fists towards Yang Lin and Deng Fei and said:

"The owner of the village will order, the two leaders have just gone up the mountain, and no one can be called by their side, so let the two of us each pick five clever minions and wait for the two brothers to dispatch."

First of all, he did not correct his previous sins, then treated each other with courtesy, then invited each other warmly, and finally gave gold and silver in a variety of ways, and arranged the house and manpower to serve early.

With such a generous treatment, Duan's righteousness was deep, and Yang Lin and Deng Fei, who had been working the rivers and lakes for many years and had not found a place to stay, were moved in their hearts.

"Brother, don't excuse me, God is pitiful, we have met the Lord this time. Who would have thought that the good karma formed two years ago blossomed and bore fruit at this time, these belongings, as well as the minions who served, were accepted. Don't forget this kindness. ”

"What my brother said is very true, and I think the same way. When I was a child, I liked to go to the hook column to listen to people talk about books and sing operas, saying that when Li Shimin was the king of Qin, Wei Zheng and Wei Chigong had repeatedly offended and violated him, but the king of Qin ignored the past suspicions, valued the two of them very much, treated each other with courtesy, and finally became a good story in the history books. I really have the style of King Qin between the words and deeds of the lord of the village, so we will do our best to assist him, so that our good names will also be spread in the green forest. ”

In the empty justice hall, Yang Lin and Deng Fei had red eyes and choked up several times between their words.

Only people who have been wandering in the rivers and lakes for many years, but have nothing to rely on, can clearly understand this indescribable state of mind, these two are emotional and righteous men, Zou Yun from the heart, without any pretentious actions, only let them be moved in their hearts, immediately encourage each other, just waiting for the future to repay this kindness.
