Jiayou's Fun

Chapter 61: The power of wealth can lead to the gods

At the Survey Department's station, six large black coffins were lined up in front of the lobby door.

This is what the young eunuchs and their men had purchased last night, knocking on doors all night long and finally purchasing six large ash coffins made of six-inch boards.

Last night, the heads of the six wardens who died in the battle had been sewn shut with silk thread by skilled craftsmen, leaving a thin red line on their necks.

They changed into clean battle robes, cleaned themselves up, and lay quietly in the coffin. They were covered with quilts made of silk and copper coin patterns. Their heads were filled with paper stacks of gold ingots, and their feet were piled with piles of gold ingots. There are silver ingots stacked on paper, and thick copper money-patterned paper money is held in his hands.

A group of supervisors stood in the yard. When they saw Lu Qian, they all bowed to Lu Qian.

With these six coffins as a foundation, the supervisors felt confident about following Lu Qian.

It's not a loss to have such treatment after death.

The six colleagues who died in the battle were all using high-quality items on the market. The supervisors asked themselves that if they died in the Yulin Army, they would be reluctant to use such high-quality items for them.

Lu Qian was able to use his own money to provide good things to his brothers who died in the war, which proved that the chief officer was generous and had feelings for his brothers. Working under such a leader gives me a sense of peace of mind, and I am not afraid of dying with no whereabouts.

Lu Qian stood at the door of the lobby and glanced at the six coffins lined up in a daze.

He felt very uncomfortable.

One, because of the fire last night, these guards died for him, and he felt very guilty.

Therefore, he must handle the posthumous matters of the brothers, as well as the pensions for their families, etc., in a beautiful manner.

Second, he is a bit obsessive and is very sensitive to numbers.

The three centurions, who were originally neat and orderly, looked so neat and uniform. Suddenly six people were missing, and they had to be made up for.

Someone has to go to the palace guard headquarters to keep an eye on it. If there are people from the Jianghu who want to take refuge, they must be brought in quickly.

There was a noise outside the door.

Hundreds of people had just attacked the station, and the commotion was quite loud. Officials from Yushunfang had already arrived.

The guards threw the corpses to the Yushunfang Lingyamen and asked them to collect them; those who were injured and maimed alive were handed over to the palace guards' own family members who were in charge of Yushunfang and sent to the secret prison. , waiting for orders from Yu Changle.

After being busy for a while, the supervisors under Lu Qian filed in and lined up in the courtyard.

A palace guard was stationed in Yushunfang, and the school captain in charge of the nearby neighborhood came in, greeted Lu Qian, and took the people away.

The heavy door closed, and Lu Qian cupped his hands toward his subordinates standing in the yard.

Okay, this is Ahu, my brother, and he will be one of my family members from now on. Ahu has some connections in the streets of Haojing and knows a lot of people. From now on, he will be the eyes and ears of our Yushunfang Survey Department on the street. .”

Write a letter to the headquarters, buy a set of supervisor's clothes for Ahu, and get a batch of dental license certificates from ghosts in the ground. For now, let's get a thousand copies.

The supervisors who came from the Yulin Army did not react to this.

Twenty little eunuchs, they had received special training from the inner court, and they were knowledgeable, so they were shocked by Lu Qian's generosity - the Yushunfang Survey Department had just been established, and Lu Qian was able to recruit a thousand landowners. ghost?

You can't just find a few green-skinned gangsters to take on the job of being a bastard under the palace guard.

They must be familiar with the streets and have certain connections with the neighbors. They must be able to inquire about news, collect intelligence, follow up, and even pry doors and dig holes, beat sap, spread white ash, and all kinds of messy methods.

If there is no certain force value, no certain ability to act, and the palace guard is not a charity, how can he give these ghosts benefits in vain?

In fact, these local ghosts have to support the palace guards in return, and can collect part of the gray income for the palace guards from the market.

This is the ghost who is qualified to be listed in the palace guard and get the identity card!

Even if you are a ‘temporary worker’, it’s not that easy!

Being able to recruit a thousand people at once... If Lu Qian is not bragging, then this new celebrity next to the emperor is obviously... really capable at such a young age?

The eunuchs in the inner court are the most discerning, the most able to follow the red-topped black, and the most able to follow the crowd.

The twenty little eunuchs looked at Lu Qian with smiles, and their waists, which were already slightly hunched, bent down a few more degrees more respectfully, and responded in a very submissive manner.

Lu Qian noticed the subtle changes in the attitudes of the young eunuchs. He nodded and threw the coarse cloth package in his hand to the ground.

The knot on the package was opened, and a pile of well-cast small gold ingots rolled out from the huge package, which was so shiny that it caught the eye.

Both the eunuchs and the young eunuchs stared straight at these little gold ingots, and their bodies stiffened.

The brothers who died in the battle last night are my fault. Lu Qian said loudly: In addition to the pensions that should be paid in prison, I will give each of their families ten taels of gold here.

Upon hearing this, three centurions came out of the queue and knelt down on one knee to salute Lu Qian solemnly.

Ten taels of gold is two hundred taels of silver, which is two hundred copper coins.

When they were in the Yulin Army, the official war death pension was only three years of money and food.

According to the military pay for the top soldiers of the Habayashi Army, it is sixty guan.

The pension provided by Lu Qian is more than three times the official pension.

Moreover, this is additional money in addition to the official pension.

Such a boss is very humane, and it also reveals that Lu Qian is not short of money. He is very wealthy. Following such a boss, I feel very at ease.

Brothers who are seriously injured will receive three taels of gold each for decoction and medicine, and those who are slightly injured will receive one tael each. For the other brothers, as a boss, I don't have much as a greeting gift. Each person will receive half a tael of gold, which is five guan of money. Please, brothers. Let’s drink!”

'boom'!

Two hundred guards all knelt down on one knee, raised their right fists, and hit themselves hard in the heart.

Lu Qian said to the twenty squinting little eunuchs: Your kung fu is much higher than that of ordinary brothers, so you deserve to get more. Well, just take it according to the share of the seriously injured brothers. !”

The share of seriously injured brothers is three taels of gold per person, which is sixty gold!

These little eunuchs were previously kept in deep palaces and received rigorous training from the palace guards. Apart from having enough to eat and drink, they did not get a penny every month. They are all orphans adopted by the Palace Supervisor. The Palace Supervisor gave them food and drink and a chance to survive. Do you still want money?

It can be said that the pockets of these little eunuchs are cleaner than the stone floors of this clean and tidy courtyard.

As soon as Lu Qian met them, he gave them sixty coins?

This is a lot of money that these little eunuchs have never seen in their lives!

Each of these little eunuchs beamed with joy, and their waist bones suddenly softened. They all knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Lu Qian affectionately: Oh, I have thanked you, sir. slaves, are you willing? Die for your lord.

Two hundred guards shouted in unison: I am willing to die for your Excellency!

The crossbowmen who stood at the high police posts also raised their strong bows and crossbows and saluted Lu Qian from a distance.

At the same time, Bai Changkong led Bai Lang and a few guards, riding the 'Desert Wind Horse' from Youzhou in the west, and had already crossed the canal and arrived at a quiet street in Wuyinfang on the west side of the imperial city.

It is worth mentioning that the 'Desert Wind Horse' is also a kind of exotic war horse. They are not as tall and burly as the 'Blood Hoof Wuzui', but their limbs are slender, they can run quickly, and they have a long endurance.

Compared with the blood-hoofed Wuzui owned by Lu Qian, the desert wind pony can run even faster. It can run at full speed in six hours and can cover seven or eight thousand miles. Therefore, the Desert Wind Horse is much more expensive than the Star Dog.

Of course, Bai Changkong, with his cool sleeves, would not have the spare money to purchase Desert Wind Horse.

These mounts were naturally gifts from the wealthy disciples of the Imperial Academy who came from Youzhou in the West to honor their teachers.

As for scholars, what does it mean if a disciple respects his master and has a few good horses?

Isn't this a matter of course?

Although it is said that Bai Changkong's family has more than a hundred Desert Wind Colts...

Who made him the deputy chief of the Imperial College?

In the Imperial College, there are at least seven or eight thousand people, including the princes' children from Youzhou in the west, as well as extremely wealthy businessmen and young men from aristocratic families. Who among them is missing a Desert Wind Pony?

There are so many rich students, but Bai Changkong's family only has more than a hundred desert wind horses, which is enough to prove that Bai Changkong is as clean as water.

Bai Changkong took his son and guards into a house on this street.

This family, according to the official records, is a minor official in Guanglu Temple.

If you carefully trace the official's files, you will know that twenty years ago, when the official first entered the Imperial College to study, Bai Changkong was his professor, and the two had a serious teacher-student relationship.

It is reasonable for a teacher to be a guest at his disciple's home, isn't it?

Leaving the guards outside in the yard, Bai Changkong and Bai Lang, under the polite greetings of the junior official, drove straight into the back garden, opened a secret passage from a side room, and followed the secret passage across two streets. , arrived at the underground of another house a few miles away.

Here, there is a basement that is larger than the underground red sandalwood room of the Bai family.

The four walls of the basement are made of huge bluestones. The walls and floor are three feet thick and extremely strong, making it difficult for ordinary people to invade.

In the huge space, there are numerous huge boxes stacked up. At first glance, this kind of box, which is about three feet long, wide and about two feet high, has at least more than 2,000 boxes.

Bai Changkong casually opened a box. The golden light inside was dazzling, and it was full of exquisitely cast twelve layers of gold ingots.

Bai Changkong opened several boxes in succession, and each box was filled with gold ingots.

The gaps between the gold ingots in some boxes are also filled with a large amount of sand gold.

Bai Changkong grabbed a handful of alluvial gold and let the golden lumps the size of mung beans fall down continuously. He looked back at the dumbfounded Bai Lang and said leisurely: I have been working for my father for a lifetime, and most of the hard work is here. ”

Bai Lang swallowed hard.

If more than two thousand large boxes were filled with gold ingots and gold sand, what an astonishing amount of wealth it would be!

Is it strange? How many years have you been the deputy chief of the Imperial Academy for your father?

You should know that Dayin encompasses all nine states and covers such a vast area.

How many sons of princes, how many young ladies from aristocratic families were born in the Imperial College, how many children of wealthy businessmen and big businessmen have sharpened their brains and wanted to get into the Imperial College? And those students who graduated from the Imperial College, after they became officials... haha...

So, do you think that why my father keeps you brothers in the Imperial College and prevents you from going to other yamen to experience it is just to defend this territory.

The Imperial College belongs to our Bai family. If I die, it belongs to you. If you die, it belongs to your son...

Bai Changkong took a deep breath, grabbed a gold ingot with a satisfied look on his face, put it on his face and rubbed it gently.

Pick up ten boxes and send them to the General's Mansion.

This bastard Le Wu has a reputation for getting paid to do things, so he's still trustworthy.

There is a saying, as long as the money is in place, Lewu's credibility is more trustworthy than Haojing's 99% promise to be a gentleman... This guy is a talent!

Chu Xiu, Chu Xiu? Ha, I can't enter the palace because of Shuang. Fortunately, I still have a niece whose parents died and she went to live far away.

How difficult is it to change your name?
