Chapter 698 Donations

The sun is shining, the warm breeze is blowing, but the whole capital is shrouded in gloomy clouds and miserable fog, Chang Yu closed his eyes under the flowers and trees to recuperate, and then the royal nobles in the city ordered the street vendors and pawns to be all panicked, the Qing army was cutting wood outside the city and sharpening knives Huo Huo was preparing to attack the city The news spread all over the capital, and no one could still sit still.

In the streets and alleys, there are all kinds of discussions among the teahouses and restaurants, some people feel that the Qing army may not be able to fight down, and the Qing army has not been surrounded or fought in previous years, and some people think that this time is different from the past, regardless of the national strength or military strength of the Ming Dynasty, the incompetence of the DPRK and the army, and the lack of strong generals in the army at this time, it is really hard to say.

And what makes them even more uneasy is that the god of war in their minds is seriously injured and his life and death are unknown, the soul of Dongchang is also the spiritual pillar of the Ming Dynasty, and he is also the god among ordinary people......

Is it going to change? It's clear that the sun is warm in the sky, but many people feel that it is cold to the bone, and it is creepy.

Most of the unity needs external forces, when the news of the Qing army entered the customs, the Octopus Chamber of Commerce took the lead in the capital to launch business donations, businessmen are shrewd, Octopus is the imperial businessman background is deep and want to pull a relationship with it, but also know that there is no end to the nest, have responded, even ordinary people also reached out to help talk about their hearts, as the situation outside the city becomes more and more serious, many business tycoons add donations and donate food.

It can be said that in terms of the initiative and enthusiasm of donations, the business community is really one day and one place compared to those noble and wealthy families, but Wu Mengming has also achieved a lot of results, this goods in the name of his own people to coerce the public to donate to the noble and wealthy families, some thin-skinned and some of the family almost paid when he first made a move, and was blocked by people full of benevolence and morality, pointing his nose and scolding him for not being able to afford to lose that kind of person.

Of course, there are also those dead pigs who are not afraid of boiling water, just take out a few hundred taels of silver and then either cry poor and Wu Mengmingbiao's acting skills, or just close the door and let you toss.

But this is difficult to stop the most money-greedy Jinyi guard commander in history.

Not really!

Wu Mengming's motto in life is, as long as you give money, what kind of face do you want! He sprinkled wild, and took hundreds of people to block the door one day, first he scolded these nobles for losing the emperor's grace, and the ancestors now stood on their feet so that the nobles couldn't return the loss, and then they scolded the street like a shrew, of course, not him, but hundreds of people scolded together......

In the end, many people couldn't stand it, and they couldn't fight back the righteous reason, impeached him, the emperor rolled his eyes, did he beat him, this thing is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, whoever gets involved is unlucky, so he has to pay obediently.

Is Xungui rich?

Naturally, there are, millions of taels are few, but there are more than a dozen or hundreds of thousands of people in the family, although many people were fined tens of thousands by Chang Yu for privately using Beijing soldiers, in fact, the drizzle does not hurt the fur, but there are indeed a few who were injured by him and even fell in the middle of the family.

Of course, there are a few misers who don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin, but now Emperor Chongzhen took them to the city to see the coffin, and after going around the city, many went down to the city and paid the money silently.

Outside the city, tens of thousands of horses, the imperial court reinforcements wandered in the south and did not dare to approach, the Ma Ke and Tang Tongni Bodhisattva outside the city crossed the river and did not protect themselves, the old and weak guards of the Jingying family in the city were embarrassed to be of great use, and the little eunuch of the military soul was seriously injured...... At this time, if you don't pay for food and fierce morale, I'm afraid it's really not good.

Who would have thought that the happiest person who laughed from the gloom and mist in this piece was Wu Mengming, although he was hated by the nobles, but he gained fame and fortune, and the fierce god in the eyes of the common people was praised by everyone in the blink of an eye, not to mention that Emperor Chongzhen had blue eyes for him, of course, he was most pleased with the commission of these donations.

Emperor Chongzhen is also happy, but half happy and half sad, Chang Yu and Wu Mengming's two henchmen joined forces to do the game, one created the situation and the other took advantage of the situation, and earned him nearly one million in less than three days, which was unimaginable as early as a few months ago, you must know that before the year, he launched a fundraiser with the dignity of the emperor, and the income was shameful.

In terms of means and cheeks, these two henchmen are 108,000 miles, Emperor Chongzhen has to accept it, but there is still a feeling of crying and laughing in his heart that he says that the war is money, and the bottomless pit is stuffed into it, how can he still make money instead.

In the afternoon, Chang Yu took a nap in the room, although the self-healing ability is super strong, but this time the blood injury is not trivial, the recovery of half a day is only a slight reduction in pain, if it is to heal, I am afraid it will take a little more time.

Fang San announced outside the door: "The commander of the Jinyi Guard asks Lord Wu to see him."

Chang Yu turned over and got up and went outside the hall, and saw that Wu Mengming was enjoying the flowers in the courtyard, so he chuckled and said: "The spring breeze is blowing, Lord Wu is it spring or rich."

Wu Mengming grinned and laughed: "The blessing of Lord Todo is a blessing."

Chang Yu sat down on the recliner: "You don't go to ask for money in good weather, what are you doing here at our house, don't say that you are here to visit the sick, empty-handed."

Wu Mengming smiled embarrassedly: "When you encounter a hard stubble, come to the factory to ask for a way."

"Who? Three kingdoms of grandfather? Chang Yu's eyes narrowed, and Wu Mengming hurriedly waved his hand: "That's all small shrimp, it's Guozhang!" ”

Heh, Chang Yu couldn't help laughing: "Lord Wu, you have a lot of appetite, even he has to bite it, it's not just hard stubble, it's a complete iron rooster, be careful to knock out your teeth."

"I don't know that he is an iron rooster, but the country's grandfather's mansion is oily, water and fat, if you don't take advantage of this situation to make a deal with him now, you won't have a chance in the future", Wu Mengming smiled.

Chang Yu sighed: "One sees the money and the other is not pulling out a dime, you two can be regarded as opponents in chess."

"Where is the chess opponent, the humble position is still at a disadvantage, I just went to the Guozhang Mansion and did not enter the oil and salt, he is the emperor's father-in-law, and the humble position is not too much...... But it's really unwilling not to bite a bite," Wu Mengming looked sad.

This fleshy tooth, Chang Yu sighed, Guozhang Zhou Kui is simply a very shameless strange person who is not only greedy for money and stingy, when Li Zicheng invaded Beijing in history, he was rewarded by Liu Zongmin, his wife and daughter-in-law were killed, he was unwilling to take out a point, and as a result, he confessed more than 500,000 when he was about to be killed, and more than 200,000 were found......

Of course, this is not his blackest black material, when Emperor Chongzhen launched the fundraiser, he asked him to donate 100,000 yuan to set an example, this thing howled and cried, I am so poor, how can I have so much silver...... Queen Zhou couldn't stand it anymore, so she sold her jewelry and got 5,000 taels of silver and gave him a private donation, but he withheld 3,000 and only donated 2,000......

Such a person, Wu Mengming wants to take advantage of him, dreaming.

"You go and ask him for 100,000 taels!" Chang Yu squinted his eyes and smiled slightly, Wu Mengming seemed to be shocked, and rubbed his old high: "Lord Factory Governor said that he was laughing, he wanted to get him five thousand taels and he would have to shed his skin, these 100,000 taels...... How is it possible, if you want him to order, he won't give it! ”

"Don't say 5,000 taels if you want it like this, he won't give it to you at fifty" Chang Yu pouted: "You just went over and said that our family wanted it, and 100,000 taels or less will not work."

Wu Mengming was confused: "What does the factory governor mean is that if you mention your name in the past, he will give it?" Don't need any other tricks? ”

Chang Yu smiled: "Yes, go ahead, he will give it."

Wu Mengming will be suspicious.
