Chapter 112 Silver Mine

Master Li was sitting on a nauseous horse, following the leisurely footsteps of the horse, dozing staggeringly.

The march was painful, exposed to the sun and rain, and it was really uncomfortable, but as General Zhu's staff and logistics officer, he had to go this trip.

Hearing that Diqiu has a lot of food and wealth, the general is eager to patrol, urging to lead the troops on the road, but he is very tired of the officials, big and small, around him.

Everyone knows what is left in the warehouse. Over the years, even a little bit of scum has been scooped up by the treasury officials, and now they are about to be dispatched suddenly. You can't let the soldiers hold fire sticks and go out with the general naked, right? !

In this way, everyone has to spit out something and make some preparations. How can we not complain?

Fortunately, everyone is well aware of the direction of the general's tour. Since the autumn harvest, Di Qiu, who used to be inconspicuous in the past, now looks golden in everyone's eyes.When a general eats meat, there will always be times when his subordinates share the soup, so don't they just want to go on tour with the adults, "defending the country and defending the family"?

General Zhu felt that sitting in a cart was stuffy and that he lost the might of his general, and he preferred to ride a tall horse surrounded by soldiers to show off his might as a general.The generals are all on horseback, how can they and other staff and petty officials still sit in the car?Naturally, I have to give up my car to ride a horse.

Pinglu has always been a skinny place, and a mangy dog ​​would not hesitate to gnaw on it, but now a young master came, and he turned into a big piece of fat, tsk!Strange too!

The road of more than 400 miles, whether it is close or not far, Huwei camp and other soldiers who are in rags and are half-starved on weekdays can only walk on their feet, and they can only live more than 40 times. Lilu, if you press again, you will die.

"Stop! Set up a stove—" a private guard from Zhu's family in front of the team shouted loudly.

Upon hearing this order, the half-dead soldiers who were walking forward immediately dispersed, and refused to move any more. The private guards of the Zhu family cursed and jumped off their horses, drew their whips and whipped around, and finally drove a group of people away. To chop firewood and carry water to make a stove.

Wu Youdeng touched the bloodstains drawn out of his face, gritted his teeth and stared at Zhu Jiufa, and in exchange for a vicious whip, Lao Yao hurriedly pulled the boy's stalk-like hand, and laughed at Zhu Jiufa again and again, dragging and tugging Pulled people aside to collect firewood.

When he walked to the sparse oak forest beside him, Lao Yao let go of his hand and said, "You're still stubborn!"

He looked back cautiously, and saw that Zhu Jiufa was still whipping people around, trembling for a while, he quickly turned around, pulled the oil lamp and whispered: "I said you fight with him, you won't be waiting to suffer! Who is he, who are you? He is the private guard of the general's family, you are a lowly soldier who sells his life and blood, and killing you is only a small number of soldiers..."

"Hmph! Why don't you treat us as human beings! Drink our blood, and..."

Lao Yao covered the exposed mouth of the oil lamp in panic, and nodded around with a smile, for fear that anyone who listened to such treasonous words and reported on him would really be stripped of his skin.

Alas, I'm still young, I don't know how to endure it!

After walking for more than ten days, the villages along the road were harassed, and even the houses of the noble gentry were squeezed out. The sheriff of Shangjun and the county lord of Anlu all sent people to expressly hint: General Zhu, don't have too much appetite, it will make people angry, everyone can't do it!

General Zhuangwei then resignedly stopped, and went straight to Diqiu wholeheartedly.

Five days before General Zhu arrived in Diqiu with his troops, a secret letter from Lu Tao, the magistrate of Pinglu County, was placed on Captain Li's desk. It hurts my tooth just looking at it, if Mrs. Wen hadn't been invited to interpret it, a rough man like Li Xiaowei really wouldn't be able to understand the veiled overtures of the old literati Lu, and his winking eyes could be regarded as showing to the blind.

The main point of the letter is nothing more than a warning to Mr. Li, Zhu Zhuangwei is coming, please be prepared to spend money and eliminate disasters, it is best to let the Zheng family attack, everyone laughs and laughs, and give up the good fortune that should be given up!

In fact, Lao Lu still thinks highly of the Li family, who doesn't take the usual path. There are so many famous officials and scholars in the world who can brag about it.

When he was a young man, his old Lu also said some grand ambitions to benefit the people of the world. Over the past few decades, relying on his background, relying on continuous clinging, and married a romantic widow with a wealthy family and a third marriage, he was able to get along. Today's petty official, thinking of the bold words back then, laughs so hard that his stomach hurts.

Although he couldn't do it himself, seeing someone could do it, Lao Lu felt unspeakable, but he was also a little secretly happy, not to mention that his family's fortune was in the hands of Li Xiaowei, how could he not quietly show his favor?

When Li Xiaowei finally understood Lao Lu's letter, he just smiled and put it aside. The timeliness of this news could not catch up with the real-time secret report sent by Secret Agent Chai every three days quietly attached to Zhu Jiajun's back.But this letter shows his attitude, and it is not in vain that he gave old Lu Dian a few times of decoction.

It's just that Zhu Zhuangwei's tour is too slow!

Crawling like a tortoise, before reaching Diqiu after ten days of walking, the sentry sentry made two rounds, and even found out what Zhu Zhuangwei had eaten in the morning these days. Temple, the school officer and the soldiers have been digging pits and setting up ambush for almost two days!

The Shanshen Temple is not a temple, but a small stone niche carved by the common people. Inside, there is an unidentifiable statue of a god, which is placed under a big pagoda tree by the roadside. Fan, this place was called the Mountain Temple.

The terrain in this area is flat, an open weedy field, and a dense forest on the side and rear, just right to set up an ambush.

Zhongheng led his [-] soldiers and fell in the forest, about a thousand steps away from the official road.

The scout came to report in the early morning that Zhu Zhuangwei was six or seven miles away from here, so the Zhongxiao officer ordered all the soldiers to prepare. According to Master Zhu's speed, he could reach here in two hours at most. This group of twisted and twisted teams that formed a long snake could barely reach it.

"Prepare!"

The school officer's face was dark, and he ordered in a low voice, and the sentry officer hurriedly raised the small red flag.

"Old dog! How dare you bully me like this!"

In the Shouchang Palace, Emperor Yuanhe was so angry that he kicked the crane-billed Xiangyun copper incense burner on the Nanjun tribute to the ground, "Be Lang Lang!" There was a loud noise.

Tian Xi lowered his head and waved his hands slightly, his confidant godson Laishun immediately stepped forward quietly and dragged the stove away, trying not to make a sound.

"Qingrong, tell me, is there any good way?"

With a gloomy face, the emperor pointed the jade ruyi in his hand to Liu Qingrong who was standing bowed.

This son of the Liu family is willing to do things, and he is hot and smart, and he has some brains. He was his long history when he was in the mansion, and now he keeps some unsightly things by his side. Although his official position is not high, he is only a member of the sixth rank. Serving the censor in the palace, but with the emperor's favor and the emperor's confidant, how dare someone stroke the tiger's beard?

When the emperor came to the throne, everyone had their eyes and hearts on whether the position was right or not, so the position was not secure.

In the end, Wu You's general Liu Qi and the leader of the Imperial Guard Yu Wei gave their full support, and Wen Youli supported him with a bunch of attached officials, and then killed the brothers who were qualified to fight. Only when he returned to his hometown, this position was gradually settled.

When he stood on the pinnacle throne, he looked around happily, only to find that many of the key positions and fat jobs under his command were dogs from the Li family. One faction is difficult to check and balance.

The treasury is so empty that it can run, and Chen Guoqing is wandering around the border again. The barbarians don't know when they will kill them. He also shouted to cherish the people's livelihood, and don't add taxes!

Plus Fu plus Fu!What he wants to add is a tax based on the land, and the collection of money is mainly based on silver. What he wants to collect is the money of the big landlords. Apart from a life for the poor people, where can they get the money? !

If it was not a last resort, how would he, the emperor, dare to touch the tiger's ass of Tian Fu?This group of people shouting to plead for the people, which one doesn't have a family of fertile land and thousands of servants?

He originally wanted to boil warm water and clear soup slowly, and first scrape off some rich households who are not from aristocratic families. Then he had to kowtow to worship the temple, and he, the emperor, was so angry that he almost jumped off the dragon chair and beat people with his own hands.

If it is said that the eyebrows are pleasing to the eyes, and the stern face is silent, I don't know it in advance, ha ha!

Liu Qingrong took a step forward and whispered beside the emperor:

"The only way to become a faction is wealth and power. Your majesty, you have a son, but you are slowly cutting off his party members and replacing important positions. The way of wealth..."

Emperor Yuanhe glanced at him coldly, how could Liu Qingrong dare to play tricks again, and hurriedly said: "Li's family background is poor, and he was able to rise these years, firstly, because the former emperor treated him well, and secondly, he was the son of the Zheng clan. Cai, their two families are connected in wealth. Although the wife of the Zheng family died young, they have two children... Well, the relationship has not been broken. Now that Feng is in the palace, Li Xian has been expelled to the northwest. There is a lot to do.

I have recently found out that a rich silver mine has been explored in the land of the Zheng Clan..."

"Silver mine?!"

Zhou Dun's eyes widened, and his heart suddenly became hot.

Because of the confusion of money and silk in the chaotic times at the end of Han Dynasty, he even suffered from bartering. Taizu used silver and copper as money, as well as iron money, and gold for precious things trading. In the court, silver is more expensive than money, and one tael of silver is more than a thousand dollars, and even a thousand or two hundred can't beat it.

Just when his pockets were empty, he suddenly heard that such a rich silver mine was born, even if it was the meat in other people's mouths, the emperor would inevitably salivate.

Under the whole world, is it not the king's land, and the coast of leading the land is not the king's ministers.

Salt can be monopolized, how can silver mines be private?

Zheng valve...

Emperor Yuanhe smiled coolly and closed his eyes slightly. Apart from the old man of the Li family, the Zheng Clan didn't have any important officials in the imperial court.
