I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

Although he was surprised why it was not Long Guangxian who asked the question, but the unknown guy beside him, Yang Tai still answered:

"Nothing we do will harm your interests."

"To be frank, you might even thank us in the future."

"Oh, please tell me in detail, sir." Jiang Yuan turned around with a smile on his face.

Yang Tai nodded reluctantly: "After this failure, we no longer plan to restore our country in Daduan. We just hope to find a safe place to survive."

"So, our destination this time is the grassland. As long as we enter the grassland, we will definitely clash with the barbarians there. With our strength, killing them all will not be a problem at all."

"As far as I know, Taiping County is located on the border. I imagine there will be frequent bandits coming down to plunder in the autumn and winter. But as long as we reach the grassland, this kind of thing will never happen again."

"So, shouldn't you thank us?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Jiang Yuan nodded with a smile, but a murderous intent had already risen in his heart.

Damn it, I kept these scouts under my command busy for several months, and they finally spread the thorn grass seeds all over the grassland. It seems that the harvest will be ready in two or three years.

A million cavalrymen! Damn it! If I had this, I could go anywhere in the world! Who would dare to touch me?

You guys are so good, now you want to come over and pick peaches, you are really rebelling!

Not to mention you, even the king of heaven cannot pass through here!

If you plan to attack the grassland, you will attract the attention of Taiping County. If you attract the attention of Taiping County, you will attract the attention of Jiangyuan. If you attract the attention of Jiangyuan, you will die!

"I wonder what General Long thinks?" Yang Tai spoke again.

Long Guangxian kept his eyes on the teacup. He could see that Jiang Yuan was deliberately trying to delay time, so he might as well keep silent.

"Well, that makes sense." Long Guangxian said lightly.

Yang Tai couldn't help but sit up straight, and said with a look of anticipation in his eyes: "In that case, General Long, could you lead your troops to withdraw three miles and let my army pass?"

Seeing that Jiang Yuan didn't say anything, Long Guangxian finally chose to nod with a stern face.

Yang Tai was overjoyed and stood up in excitement: "I have heard of General Long's great name for a long time. Seeing him today, I can see that he is truly extraordinary!"

"Since General Long has agreed, please immediately order the army to withdraw three miles. My lord will reward you handsomely in the future!"

Long Guangxian looked at Jiang Yuan, then at the soldiers standing in the distance, and finally nodded silently.

However, after waiting for a while, Yang Tai looked at the motionless soldiers around him and became impatient.

"General Long, since you have agreed, why don't you give the order?"

Jiang Yuan stood up with a pout: "Mr. Yang, are you kidding me? Now you're begging us to do something."

"You have to be polite when asking someone for help, right? Do you know what crime General Long will be charged with if he releases you without permission? A death penalty!"

"In order to get rid of these charges, General Long has to bribe people everywhere. Can he go empty-handed? You can't let General Long pay even this little money out of his own pocket, right?"

"If you can't even do this, how can you make us believe that you will repay us in the future?"

Yang Tai was stunned, with a look of disdain in his eyes. It turned out that after all this fuss, he still wanted benefits.

"This is something Yang has overlooked. I wonder if 100,000 taels is enough?"

"That's enough, Mr. Yang, you should get ready quickly. Once we get the things, General Long will naturally order the troops to withdraw." Jiang Yuan said lightly.

"Okay, it's a deal! I'll go back and prepare." Yang Tai nodded solemnly, stood up, turned and walked towards where Zhao Junxuan was.

Long Guangxian looked at Jiang Yuan in disbelief: "Sir, are you sure? Do we really have to get out of the way if we see the money?"

"Of course. Honesty is very important in a person's life. I, Jiang Yuan, will always keep my word and do what I say." Jiang Yuan said firmly.

Long Guangxian showed an expression of shock and incomprehension.

No, before you came, didn’t you say that even if Prince Zhao was the king of heaven, he wouldn’t let him go?

You're going to give it up for 100,000 taels now?

After Yang Tai turned around and told what had happened, Zhao Junxuan didn't even think about it. He just waved his hand and asked someone to go down and carry it.

One hundred thousand taels in exchange for the other party giving way is a profit no matter how you look at it.

"Haha, I said these guys are greedy and lustful, and they are sent away with a mere 100,000 taels of silver."

"But Yangtai, you have made an invaluable contribution. I will definitely reward you in the future!"

Yang Tai quickly bowed and saluted: "It's what I should do."

Soon, Yang Tai brought a group of soldiers carrying silver to Jiang Yuan and Long Guangxian.

"General Long, one hundred thousand taels, not a tael less, please order the troops to withdraw."

Long Guangxian stood there expressionlessly, while Jiang Yuan approached Yang Tai with extraordinary enthusiasm.

"Mr. Yang, don't be anxious. Let me take a look at the things first, right?"

Yang Tai's eyes were filled with sarcasm: "Then please take a look, there will definitely be a lot."

Jiang Yuan walked to a box with a smile. Two soldiers cooperated very well to open the lid, and a pile of silver suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Yuan.

However, the moment he saw the silver, Jiang Yuan's expression froze. Without even turning his head, he spoke in a deep voice:

"Mr. Yang, may I ask what you mean by this?"

"Huh?" Yang Tai turned around in surprise, and seeing Jiang Yuan's stunned expression, he immediately said, "What's the problem? One hundred thousand taels of silver, not a tael less, all here."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuan's expression darkened upon hearing this: "Mr. Yang, are you kidding General Long?"

"Where did this come from?" Yang Tai looked at Jiang Yuan in confusion.

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yuan came directly in front of Yang Tai, grabbed his clothes, and said angrily:

"Yang Tai! Do you think General Long is an idiot, or are you an idiot yourself?"

"Let me ask you, what can you do with 100,000 taels of silver?"

"Who doesn't need a hundred thousand taels of silver to bribe the higher-ups? With so little money like yours, you're using it to test the officials? Which official wouldn't be able to withstand such a test?"

"This is a matter of life and death. Who do you think would help for such a small thing?"

Yang Tai looked at Jiang Yuan with a pale face: "This, but this is what we agreed on before, and you also agreed."

"Bullshit! General Long thought he'd only agree to this in exchange for 100,000 taels of gold, and now you're giving me this?"

"You've greatly disappointed General Long!"

"Right now, immediately, go back and prepare the 100,000 taels of gold, or don't come back to see General Long!"
