Chapter 105: Wealth and Silk Touching the Heart
"Fire the arrows and shoot them to death for me." Jin San laughed loudly. The distance between the two sides was less than twenty steps. Even if the boat shook violently, accuracy at this distance would not be a problem.
"Whoosh~whoosh~whoosh" A burst of feather arrows mixed with crossbow arrows flew towards Deng Scarface and his party. The two people who were cutting the rope were so frightened that they quickly fell to the ground and luckily escaped.
"Jin Laosan, I will fight with you." Deng, who was lying on the deck with a scarred face, raised his head and looked at Jin San bitterly. The distance was getting closer and closer, and he couldn't run away today.
"Come on." Jin San turned the giant crossbow on the bow and aimed at Deng Scar's face. The arrows of this kind of giant crossbow are about one inch thick. If it hits a human body, it will be difficult for gods to save him.
"Scarface, aren't you awesome? Stand up and take the knife. I'll give you a chance." Jin San laughed wildly. This was so exciting. No wonder they all want to be officers and soldiers. Not to mention Scarface's martial arts skills are as good as
You are among the best, even if you are a few points higher than you, so what, just stand up and try.
There was a loud "bang" sound, and the two ships came together. Jin San stood on the bow of the ship. The giant crossbow was only half a foot away from Deng Scar's face. Even if he could fly, he couldn't escape.
"Scarface, you want to call another one? Get up and fight." Jin San put his hand on the trigger. As soon as Scarface made any movement, he would fire immediately. It didn't matter if he was missing from the mine.
"Jin Laosan, I admit defeat today. If you want to kill or behead me, it's up to you." Deng Scarface raised his head to look at the dark crossbow arrow, and lowered his head in frustration. It was so terrifying. The crossbow arrow hit his body, and I'm afraid that his body
It's just a big hole.
"Scarface, I told you, I am an officer and a soldier now, and your crime does not count. Laojiu, bring the people on the boat and tie them up, and send them to the county government to be punished by the county magistrate.
." Jin San saw another ship approaching and ordered. The soldiers on his ship, mainly archers, aimed their bows and arrows at the people on Deng Scarface's ship. The other two ships were based on
Led by Jin Jiu and Jin Twelve, they all used weapons such as swords and guns, and shackles and the like were indispensable.
Upon hearing the order, Jin Jiu jumped over with a group of soldiers and tied them all with shackles. As for Jin Twelve, he was leading people to follow Scarface's other ship, preparing to kill all Scarface's people today. The governor gave them
I don’t have much time, so these are all my own merits.
"Jin Laosan, although we didn't deal with it in the past, there is no need to do it so cruelly, right?" Deng Scarface was tied tightly. When he heard that he was going to be sent to the Yamen for trial, a basin of cold water was poured on his feet.
It's a sin, but it's still easy to get rid of it.
"Scarface, why can't you turn around? This is not a personal vendetta, this is official business. I want to clean up all the lawless elements on the surface of Youxi. I will arrest you all, so I, Jin San, can do something good."
Otherwise, how can I explain to the superiors? As the saying goes, if you die as a fellow Taoist but as a poor Taoist, I will only have to wrong you." Jin San took off the crossbow arrow. This thing is too powerful, so you still have to be careful. In Jin San's eyes,
Deng Scarface and the others are not water bandits, they are merit plus bonuses, and a living life is worth more than a dead one.
"Jin San, no, Third Brother, can I surrender? I, Scarface, bow my head to you. It was me who was blind in the past and offended Third Brother. Please give me a way to survive." Scarface thought, since you, Jin San, can clean up
Bai, many people in the Golden Sword Sect can clear their names. If I am sensible, I might be able to become an officer and soldier.
"Scarface, the county's monthly salary is limited and we can't afford to support so many people. I'm sorry. Laojiu, take them into custody first, and I'll go help Twelve." It's a good idea, the county government said.
I was given a small amount of money and personnel quota, but I have to recruit more people myself.
There is no such thing as back-posting. Jin San refused without hesitation.
"Jin Laosan, do you have to let me die?" He had already humbled himself in such a low voice, but Jin Laosan actually refused to take any advice, and Deng Scarface was also very angry.
"Don't worry, you won't die, you just have to work hard. As long as you obey and work hard, have enough to eat and wear warm clothes, go ahead." Jin San patted Deng Scarface on the shoulder. The governor was so compassionate that he was almost as good as a monk.
, for his crimes, he is far from being beheaded.
"I***" Deng Scarface yelled angrily, thinking that I am also a person, and I am actually sent to work in the mines. What is the difference between this and death.
Jin Sancai ignored him and led his men to continue chasing the other ship. It was all money and credit.
By the time Sun Yu and his entourage arrived in Jianpu, the autumn harvest had already begun. The weather has been smooth this year, and there will be a good harvest. This winter, people will not starve to death. The faces of the farmers on the roadside were filled with happy smiles.
After so many years, I can finally concentrate on harvesting food. In the past, when I grew crops, I had to worry about harvesting, which was no different from being a thief.
"Sir, you are finally back. I miss you so much. One day is like three autumns after not seeing you." Xu Yi, who was waiting outside the city after receiving the news, saw Sun Yu and hurriedly came up to greet him enthusiastically.
"Young Master, I want you to die." Zhang Daqiu glanced at Xu Yi bitterly, and without paying attention, he was the one who took the lead.
"Don't do this, everything will be fine these days." Sun Yu was too lazy to watch these two people acting, and he couldn't leave for more than a month, so he thought nothing of it.
"Everything is fine, everything is fine. The construction progress of the city is still good. After the autumn harvest, we can recruit a group of young men and the speed can be faster." What Sun Yu is most concerned about must be the construction progress of Jianpu City. Xu Yi
I'm quite concerned about this.
"The second lady is here, and she is living at the merchant's house now." Zhang Daqiu is an old man from the Duke of Lu's mansion. He also hopes that Sun Yu can give birth to an heir as soon as possible. He also knows everything about Sun Yu and Mrs. Su.
In the heart.
"Second Madam? Why don't you come and live in the Governor's Mansion?" Zhang Daqiu should be talking about Juyao. The backyard of the Governor's Mansion is very large. It is definitely more comfortable and safer than living in the shop.
"The Second Madam said that if you are not in the mansion, it is better to be more comfortable in the shop. There are many things to take care of every day, and it is not convenient to stay in the governor's mansion." Zhang Daqiu replied, Jianzhou Trading Company deals with many people every day.
They are traders from various places. It would not be appropriate for them to go into the governor's house to discuss matters.
"Forget it, when things are finished here, I'll go to the trading house first." Sun Yu thought the same thing. If she didn't come to the Governor's Mansion, she would go to Jianzhou Trading House. After all, it was her own business and she should go there.
have a look.
"Sir, where did so much goods come from?" Xu Yi had long looked at these carts and felt strange. He didn't pay the Lord much money, so why did he bring so many things back?
"I purchased some supplies in Quanzhou. I thought we might need them here. I've gone there and can't come back empty-handed. Let's go, go to the warehouse first and talk as we go." Sun Yu clamped the horse's belly and moved forward with fierce fire.
He walked slowly, and the convoy followed him.
"Sir, where did the money come from?" Xu Yi thought, maybe he robbed bandits along the way. On the way to Jianzhou, his master had this plan, but those bandits and thieves didn't even see a shadow.
.
"Ask Mr. Song to borrow it. Don't ask so many questions first. It's important to put it into storage." Sun Yu thought to himself, this moment will scare you to death.
s things.
Sun Yu and his party arrived at the entrance of the warehouse. The surrounding area was heavily guarded. Even Xu Yi had to be searched when he came in and out. Sun Yu was the only exception. The warehouse door was huge and the carriage could enter and exit easily. When the carriage entered the warehouse, Sun Yu asked Zhang Daqiu to take a group of people with him.
The coachmen went to the inn to settle down, and they would return the carriage to Quanzhou early tomorrow morning.
"Sir, what's so mysterious about this?" Xu Yi opened the carriages one by one and looked at them. There was nothing big, they were just ordinary goods.
"Unload the supplies and sort them first." Sun Yu put it aside first and put the supplies away first. These were all bought with money.
"Sir, come with me." After the supplies were moved, Sun Yu took Xu Yi and turned into a carriage. Sun Yu held a crowbar, inserted it into the wooden board under the carriage, and pried it hard, and the wooden board was lifted up.
"This is gold?" Xu Yi stared at the row of yellow brick-like objects that caught his eye, a little unbelievable. How much is this worth? He has never seen so much gold in his life.
"If it's genuine, it's pure gold. Here are three thousand taels." A gold brick weighs five hundred taels, and there are six bricks hidden under a carriage, which is exactly three thousand taels.
"My mother, sir, where did you steal it from? It's worth at least thirty thousand taels of silver. It's a windfall." The last time I sold Chen Qisi, I got thirty thousand taels, so the finances were better. As a result, we had to support the counties again.
Now that money is tight again, this batch of gold is really like rain from heaven.
"That's not all. There is so much gold under each carriage, totaling 30,000 taels of gold. Sir, what do you think?" Sun Yu had never seen so much gold in his life. The Duke's government used all the money to buy properties.
There isn't much cash in hand.
"Let me take a moment." Each carriage had thirty thousand taels of gold. Xu Yi felt a little dizzy. Happiness came so suddenly. How should I spend this money? It's too much.
"Pah!" Xu Yi raised his hand and slapped himself, it hurt so much.
"Sir, am I not dreaming?" Xu Yi dreams about being rich every day, but now it really comes. Why does it feel so unreal?
"Of course not, why are you going?" Sun Yu saw Xu Yi grab his crowbar and get off the carriage.
"I'm going to see if the adults are trying to trick me." Xu Yi decided to go and pry it in person. Seeing is believing.
"Lao Cheng, Bahu, go up and help." Sun Yu looked at the limping Xu Yi, fearing something might happen, and quickly asked them to help. As for the vicious dogs and a group of cavalry, they were all waiting outside.
It's better to keep this kind of thing a secret.
...
"Do you believe it now?" Sun Yu looked at Xu Yi who was sweating from exhaustion and asked with a smile. Cheng Zhenbei and Chen Qiba neatly stacked the gold bricks. They didn't know in advance that there were so many hidden in the carriage.
Jin Zi, it took him a while to calm down.
"Sir, tell me, where did you get this money? Did you rob the Jinjiang Prince's Mansion?" Xu Yi felt that the only person in Quanzhou who could afford so much gold would be the prince. If he really robbed it,
Prince's Mansion, let's admit it. At worst, people will die for money and birds will die for food.
"The money given by the three major families headed by the Song family can be regarded as a kind of investment. I have reached a deal with them." Everyone here is his confidant. There is no need to hide it. Sun Yu is about to make a deal with the three major families.
The agreement reached between the family and himself was revealed.
