Chapter 384: Compromise between the two sides
The state government does not pay food, and they have to withdraw from the silver mine and give up the medicinal herb business, how is this possible!
Then he said: "Everything Hu Kun and the others have done is so that the Divine Cavalry can make the medicinal herb business bigger and make more money to feed thousands of Divine Cavalry. Now dozens of them are going to die for this matter, and the state government has asked us to give up the medicinal herb business, I will never accept it! Let the state government go to find the murderer by himself, and the Divine Cavalry will not care! ”
Yang Congyi immediately soothed: "My lord's anger. It's not that there is no solution to this matter, didn't the lower officials discuss it with the adults before, about the medicinal material business after Hu Kun died? Why don't you take this opportunity to retreat into the background and find a shopkeeper to take over the medicinal herb business, so that Meng Zhizhou has nothing to say, and adults can also collect money in the back with peace of mind, without taking risks, isn't it the best of both worlds? ”
The ruler's heart moved, and then his expression gradually relaxed, and he nodded slightly: "Yes, this is indeed a way." But the problem is, where to find a shopkeeper now, and take over all the medicinal herb business of the Divine Cavalry, I'm afraid it won't be able to do it in three or five months, after all, we have been doing it for two or three years, and the business routes and channels are almost the same. ”
Yang Congyi said: "This problem can be solved slowly, if the adults think that there is no problem, for now, it is better to send these murderers out of the barracks for resettlement, so as not to be seen by the people, and the rumors spread around, which can be greatly disadvantageous to the Divine Cavalry." ”
Lord Commander thought about it again, and replied: "It's better to trouble Lord Yang to tell Meng Zhizhou, we are willing to give up the medicinal material business in Nanjian Prefecture, and we can hand over all the murderers to them tomorrow, I hope he will keep his promise and not break his word and get fat, otherwise the Commander Yamen will not be able to control thousands of hungry people." ”
"Okay, my lord can do this, and the lower officials are very happy. Xia Guan went on a trip to convey the meaning of the adult to Meng Zhizhou. After Yang Congyi finished speaking, he immediately got up.
"Lord Yang will go early and return early." The ruler stood up to send him off.
Yang Congyi answered, and immediately clenched his fists and left.
The ruler knows the reason, and he also knows that this series of robbery and murder cases is too important to delay, and the longer it drags on, the more attention it will attract from above, and when the time comes, it will be a big trouble to send someone here. Therefore, he agreed to Yang Congyi's proposal without much consideration.
Yang Congyi didn't put down the package, and when he left the yamen, he quickly rushed to the state government and came directly to the living room, and the government official also went to report to Lord Zhizhou as soon as possible.
It didn't take long for Meng Zhizhou to come out from behind the screen, with a slight smile on his face.
As soon as he saw Yang Congyi, he opened his mouth and asked, "Can Zhang Tongzhi agree to this state's proposal?" ”
Yang Congyi got up and replied: "The Lord of the Command agrees to arrest all the murderers before noon tomorrow, and he is also willing to give up the medicinal material business in Nanjian Prefecture that he has been operating for many years, and at the same time tell the lower officials that I hope Meng Zhizhou can keep his promise, otherwise the Commander Yamen will not be able to control thousands of hungry people." ”
"Well, as long as they hand over the robberies and murderers one by one by noon tomorrow, there will be no more trouble in this state. In addition, regarding their abandonment of the medicinal herb business, the state hopes that it can be determined before the murderer is handed over tomorrow. Meng Zhizhou stood in the hall, and did not mean to sit down, obviously unwilling to say more.
Yang Congyi suddenly had doubts in his heart, and immediately asked, "How does Lord Meng want to be sure that the Divine Cavalry will give up the medicinal herb business?" ”
Meng Zhizhou smiled slightly: "Tomorrow, Japan Prefecture will find the shopkeepers of several major pharmacies in Southern Jianzhou to discuss taking over the medicinal material business of the Divine Cavalry Army, sign a transfer contract on the spot, and completely give up the medicinal material business in Southern Jianzhou." ”
Yang Congyi replied: "The subordinate can't call the shots in this matter, and he has to go back and discuss a thing or two with the ruler." ”
Meng Zhizhou said: "This matter is not negotiable, since we agree to give up the medicinal materials business, the transfer contract must be signed before noon tomorrow, otherwise there will be many dreams at night, and if something happens, I am afraid it is not what Zhang Tongzhi wants." ”
"Let the subordinate go and talk to the lord of the system first, the subordinate is just passing the word on behalf of the subordinate to urge the mission case to be concluded as soon as possible, and it cannot replace the divine cavalry to make any decisions." Yang Congyi is neither humble nor arrogant, in fact, at this time, he has unconsciously stood on the side of the Divine Cavalry, and he thinks more about the Divine Cavalry than the state government.
"Then you can send a message to Zhang Tongzhi, if it is inconvenient for him to enter the yamen tomorrow, let him send someone who can call the shots." Meng Zhizhou smiled, but his tone was very tough, and there was no room for negotiation.
Yang Congyi had no choice but to reply: "The lower official must bring the words." ”
Then he said: "If there is nothing else, the lower official will leave." ”
"Well, go ahead, fortunately Secretary Yang." Meng Zhizhou smiled slightly.
Yang Congyi raised his hand and bowed lightly, then turned around and left the living room.
This sudden request disrupted the original idea of him and the Lord of the Rulers, and they never thought of really giving up the medicinal herb business in Nanjian Prefecture at the beginning. Meng Zhizhou may have considered that the Yamen would choose to give up the medicinal herb business, and then use the tactic of delaying the army, so he put forward this request to sign the transfer contract on the spot.
Yang Congyi left the state government, on the way back to the command yamen, his thoughts were rolling, tomorrow morning to sign the transfer contract, the commander will probably not agree, if so, the murder and robbery case will be variable again, whether the case can be successfully concluded, is not something he can predict.
He disagreed with Meng Zhizhou's move to make people unpopular, and even a little disgusted, if he really forced the Divine Cavalry Army to be anxious and caused an incident that was difficult to calm down, no one would have good fruit to eat at that time, and he, a secretary of the palace military case who had just taken office, was implicated in this matter for no reason, which was really wronged.
But the matter has come to this point, how to solve it, we have to come up with a way, otherwise when something really happens, no matter who regrets it, it will be useless.
Judging by Meng Zhizhou's meaning, he should not make any more concessions, and when he proposed the option of asking the Divine Cavalry to give up the medicinal herb business, he should have already thought of this next move.
If he chooses to withdraw from the silver mine instead, he may be in the hands of Meng Zhizhou, and he will seize the silver mine to have a stable income, and the ruler will obviously not give up.
It seems that there is no choice in this matter, Meng Zhizhou finally seized the opportunity, and he will definitely not let go, since he can't get back the silver mine, the medicinal material business must be grasped in his hands.
couldn't think of a way, couldn't figure it out, and before he knew it, Yang Congyi returned to the front of the control yamen.
In the living room, after Yang Congyi relayed Meng Zhizhou's meaning to the commander, he was greeted with an angry roar.
"It's too much of a deception! It just doesn't make sense! ”
The ruler was like thunder, and the case was spilled, and the tea was spilled all over the ground.
"Let's not talk about this matter, all those people were driven out of the barracks and sent to the mountains, so deceitful, don't try to solve the case!" Lord Commander glanced at Yang Congyi and said through gritted teeth.
"Your Majesty is angry. Although Meng Zhizhou is a little aggressive, this matter is not without room for maneuver. Yang Congyi immediately persuaded that he didn't want the matter to end up in a mess.
"Lord Yang has a way?" The ruler said in a hurry, obviously he didn't want to expand the matter.
Yang Congyi said: "The transfer contract can be signed, but when it will be performed, whether it will be performed, there is no certainty. The medicinal herb business is in the hands of the Divine Cavalry, even if the major pharmacies have signed a transfer contract and given the silver, the initiative is still in the hands of the Divine Cavalry, so why should the adults worry too much. ”
When the Lord Commander heard this, he immediately looked angry, and couldn't help laughing: "Lord Yang's words are reasonable, and the old man was almost confused by him. ”
Then he said excitedly: "I promised him that the transfer contract can be signed tomorrow morning, but I have to pay the money immediately after signing, otherwise the contract will be invalid, I want to see who dares to sign it!" ”
Hearing this, Yang Congyi was speechless for a while, these two old guys, neither of them is a fuel-efficient lamp, only he is in a hurry.
After several twists and turns, after mutual compromise, most of the differences between the two sides were finally eliminated, and the problems to be solved ushered in the light.
Now that the important differences have been resolved, all that remains is some details, whether it is the control of the yamen or the state capital, he doesn't need his help, he won't get into it himself, no matter what dirty things they have in private, he doesn't want to ask anymore, he doesn't want to know, now he just wants to sleep well.
After a brief meal of fruit and snacks, they went back to their room and went to bed early, as for how the rulers would place those murderers, where they would be placed, and even how to deliver them, they had to consider for themselves.
This whole day, it was even more tiring than fighting, Yang Congyi didn't care about practicing, and went to sleep directly.
On the third day, it was still a sunny day, when the sun shone into Yang Congyi's room, he didn't hear the sound of the soldiers of the Divine Cavalry practicing in the school field, probably because of yesterday's events, which disrupted today's arrangement.
Lie in bed and be undisturbed.
But as soon as the summer sun shone in, the room immediately warmed up, and he could only get up without hesitation.
After a brief wash, he walked out of the courtyard, saw the guards, saw the forbidden army, as if everything was the same, but he vaguely felt some inexplicable atmosphere.
After only walking for a while, he quickly returned to the room, no matter what happened to the Divine Cavalry and how the atmosphere changed, it didn't matter much to him, as long as they didn't make trouble and didn't riot, it was enough for him to leave Nanjian Prefecture safely.
As soon as he returned to the room, a soldier knocked on the door, brought breakfast, and conveyed the Commander's apology.
This is an extraordinary moment, I don't know how many things to be busy, Yang Congyi naturally understands.
After breakfast, I practiced in my room when I had nothing to do.
If the murderer can be smoothly transferred to the state government at noon, the trial will be concluded in the afternoon, and he will be able to leave early tomorrow morning and go south to Fuzhou.
But before that, there was one final negotiation between the two sides, that is, the transfer of the medicinal herb business, and he could only pray that there would be no problems in this link, otherwise he would have to delay his trip in the future.
After practicing in the room for about an hour, there was a knock on the door.
Yang Congyi took the credit, got up and opened the door, but it was a guard.
