Luo Xin saw the appearance of everyone beating chicken blood, and sighed in his heart, being an official for thousands of miles is only for money!
However, Luo Xin did not contradict it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
A gentleman loves money and takes it in the right way! He has no objection to his subordinates loving money, as long as they make money seriously, this is nothing, and they should be supported. So, he said lightly:
"I will sort out an assessment system, and Lord He will evaluate you once a month. How much do you do each month and what is the proportion of completion, a class A, B and C will be selected, and the rewards for each level are different. But I can tell you here that as long as you do a good job, you will not be rewarded less than you have been for your previous corruption. And you are taking money justifiably, only honor, you can spend it generously, and others only envy. ”
Everyone's eyes lit up, but then Luo Xin's words made their hearts sink again.
"But where there is a reward, there is a punishment. The city doesn't need to be mediocre. Those who fail to pass the assessment will be fined, and those who fail to pass the test three times in a row will be dismissed. ”
Everyone said yes, and Luo Xin said lightly: "Go back and think about how to do your job well, and start building the dock tomorrow." Stand down, and Lord He stays. ”
When everyone retreated, Luo Xin looked at the New Year and said, "Tomorrow, let's go to Haining to have a look." ”
"Yes, sir!"
Luo Xin saw the hesitation on He Nian's face, and said, "Lord He, is there something?" ”
"Your Excellency!" He Nian hesitated again and said: "The reward and punishment system you set is very good, but our city has no money now, even to build a wharf, you still need to go to the prefect to ask for materials and silver, where is the money to reward them?" If the adults can't come up with the money at that time, then they are not trustworthy, and the result is very serious, and people's hearts will be scattered. ”
"I understand!" Luo Xin rubbed his eyebrows and said, "However, there are no rules!" ”
"Your Excellency brought money from the capital?" He looked at Luo Xin hopefully.
"Nope!" Luo Xin shook his head.
He Nian's face showed bitterness and said, "Then what should I do?" ”
"Does Lord He have a good plan?"
He Nian shook his head and said, "I can't think of a way." ”
"Then forget it, the boat will naturally go straight to the dock."
He Nian shook his head, and secretly said in his heart, your heart is really big.
And at this time, Lu Daqing walked in, and when he saw that He Nian was there, he closed his mouth. Greeting the New Year, he said:
"If the adults are fine, the humble post will go down first."
After the New Year retreated, Lu Daqing said softly: "Master Hou, General Qi and Uncle are here." ”
Luo Xin couldn't help but be moved, if there was no big event, Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing would not have come together. Stand up and say:
"Take me there."
When I returned to the second hall, I saw Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing sitting there, so I strode in and said with a smile:
"Brother Yuan Jing, eldest brother, why are you here?"
Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing both stood up with solemn faces and said, "No, little brother." ”
"Don't worry, let's sit down and talk slowly."
The three of them sat down again, and Luo Xin looked at Qi Jiguang and Luo Qingdao: "The two of you are coming together?" ”
"It's not!" Luo Qing shook his head and said, "I am General Qi who met at the door." ”
"What happened?"
Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing glanced at each other, and Qi Jiguang first said: "I received an order from the ministry to immediately lead the army to Suzhou. ”
"Me too!" Luo Qing also said in a condensed voice.
Luo Xin couldn't help frowning slightly and said, "Why?" ”
"I don't know!" Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing shook their heads together.
Luo Xin tapped lightly on the arm of the chair, frowning and thinking. Said slowly:
"This must be a big operation! Are you here? ”
"The military order is like a mountain, and coming here for my brother is to say goodbye to you. When your brother is not here, you have to be more careful. ”
"Little brother, the eldest brother also wants to go to Suzhou with the army."
"Can't you not go? Your Majesty has transferred you to me. ”
Qi Jiguang smiled bitterly: "It's not a tune, it's a loan." The head of the ministry can be drawn at any time. ”
Luo Xin's brows furrowed even tighter, and after thinking for a while, he had the heart to follow Qi Jiguang to Suzhou to ask Hu Zongxian what he was going to do, but in this way, he would show that he wanted to participate in the anti-Japanese war, which would make Hu Zongxian guard against himself, which would not be beneficial to his own business in the market, because Luo Xin needed Hu Zongxian's cooperation. Finally, he said helplessly:
"Be careful."
"Be careful, too!"
After sending Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing away, Luo Xin, who returned to the second hall and sat down, narrowed his eyes, thought for a while and called:
"Daqing!"
"Master Hou!" Lu Daqing's figure appeared at the door, Luo Xin beckoned, Lu Daqing came to Luo Xin, Luo Xin said softly:
"You go to the dart game right away and get me all the news they've collected recently."
"Yes, Master Hou!"
Lu Daqing left in a hurry, and about an hour later, Lu Daqing hurried back. He carried a burden in his hand and put it on Luo Xin's case. Luo Xin opened the bag and saw a thick stack of papers inside, and looked through them one by one.
Looking at it, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he pulled out the three pieces of paper separately, put them aside, and then continued to read. When he saw the message on a piece of paper, his expression gradually became solemn.
The paper said that Wang Zhi would hold a pirate conference on Wolf Island on February 9, and all the pirate leaders would attend. It was just an instant that Luo Xin understood what Hu Zongxian meant. When he heard that Wang Zhi was going to hold a meeting on Wolf Island, he mobilized all the main forces and wiped out Wang Zhi and all the pirate leaders.
But......
There are so many problems here!
How could the news of Wang Zhi convening a meeting of pirate leaders spread so quickly? Even the dart game that has just been established in the southeast can receive the news?
How true is this? How much fake?
If it is fake, what is Wang Zhi's purpose?
"Daqing!"
"Master Hou!"
"Look at the news!"
Lu Daqing took the piece of paper with both hands, read it quickly, and put it on the case.
"What do you think?" Luo Xin asked softly.
"I don't think this news can be trusted, if the pirates really had a meeting on Wolf Island, it would not have been possible to spread so much."
"Not bad!" Luo Xin said softly: "You go to the dart bureau again immediately, let them collect it as quickly as possible, did the pirates have any experience of meeting before this, and if so, is the news of their previous meetings also spread in advance." ”
"Yes, Master Hou!"
"By the way, call Wan Daquan in."
"Yes, Master Hou!"
Lu Daqing left in a hurry, and after a while, Wan Daquan walked in.
"Master Hou, are you looking for me?"
Luo Xin picked up the piece of paper and said, "Look at the news." ”
"Yes, Master Hou!"
After Wan Daquan finished reading it, Luo Xin said: "You immediately go down and take a few people out in civilian clothes to investigate, and see if many people know about this news." ”
"Yes, Master Hou! Let's go. ”
After Wan Daquan left, Luo Xin continued to read the news, and after reading the news, he collected the papers, put the other three pieces of paper on top, and then picked them up, walked towards the back office, came to his study, put the papers in the drawer, and then made a cup of tea, came to the table, and waited for Lu Daqing and Wan Daquan while writing calligraphy.
About an hour and a half, footsteps rang out the door.
"Master Hou!"
"Come in!"
Wan Daquan pushed the door and walked in, closing the door with his backhand. Seeing that Luo Xin was still writing there, he stood silently. Less than a quarter of an hour passed, and Luo Xin put down the brush, then sat down and asked:
"How's it going?"
"Back to Master Hou, many people know about this matter. At this time, there were many people in the wine shop and tea shop discussing this matter. ”
"I see, you go down."
"Yes, Master Hou!"
Wan Daquan retreated, but Luo Xin's brows furrowed tightly.
It's not normal, it's very abnormal.
It was already dark, and a crescent moon had crept up the branches. Footsteps sounded outside the door, and then Lu Daqing's voice came:
"Master Hou."
"Come in."
As soon as the door rang, Lu Daqing walked in, closed the door with his backhand, and said softly: "Master Hou, after an investigation by the dart bureau, pirates have also met from time to time before, but the news came out slowly after the party, and it has never come out before the meeting." ”
Luo Xin's face became gloomy, this was obviously a conspiracy, a pirate conspiracy.
But why would pirates do this? Why did Wang Zhi do this?
Didn't Wang Zhi think about peace talks with Hu Zongxian? What was his purpose in doing this?
Could it be that Wang Zhi and Hu Zongxian's peace talks were fake, but he wanted to lure Hu Zongxian's army to Wolf Island, and wanted to deal a heavy blow to the Ming army?
Wrong!
Luo Xin began to recall Wang Zhi's behavior in history, he was a person who was bent on being recruited, and it was impossible for him to take the initiative to start a war with the Ming Dynasty.
Could it be that Wang Zhi wants to integrate all the pirates?
Not right either!
If that were the case, Wang Zhi would not have spread the news.
Could this not have been done by Wang Zhi?
Luo jumped in confidence.
It's not impossible.
He believed that Wang Zhi was negotiating with Hu Zongxian, and all the pirates should know, because this matter had dragged on for too long, and Mao Haifeng's days in Suzhou were almost a year, and he had never hidden his identity when he visited the Qinglou all day long, so how could those pirates not know?
Wang Zhi did not control all the pirates, and even if some pirates obeyed Wang Zhi's orders, they were allied with Wang Zhi and respected Wang Zhi as the leader of the alliance, not Wang Zhi's descendants. Now that he heard that Wang Zhi was going to negotiate with Hu Zongxian and be recruited by the court, this would definitely make those pirates feel uneasy.
Because Wang Zhi has a criminal record.
Wang Zhi relied on his cooperation with the court back then, and was even made an official by the court, and eliminated many pirates with the help of the court. So will Wang Zhi kill those pirates again now?
How could this not make those pirates jealous of Wang Zhi?
Moreover, there are also smart people among the pirates, and they should be able to judge that even if the court accepts Wang Zhi, it will not accept them as pirates, and the court will definitely put forward a condition, that is, let Wang Zhi destroy these pirates.
In the past, they were still waiting, because they thought that Wang Zhi and the court might not be able to negotiate successfully, especially seeing that Mao Haifeng had been in Suzhou for nearly a year, and the two sides still had not made the slightest progress, so they all watched the progress of Wang Zhi and Hu Zongxian's negotiations.
But......
Luo Xin came, with the will to open the sea. Then Mao Haifeng left in a hurry.
What does this mean?
This shows that the Ming Dynasty is about to open the sea, and Hu Zongxian has also accelerated the speed of peace talks. This can't help but make those pirates nervous, if the court is really open to the sea, then Wang Zhi must hope to be recruited, from now on to clear himself, and do sea trade with the Ming Dynasty in a dignified manner, without having to be a pirate to smuggle secretly.
In this way, these pirates who are not Wang Zhi's descendants are in danger, and Wang Zhi will definitely exterminate them, on the one hand, for the conditions put forward by the Ming Dynasty, and on the other hand, for the sole control of the sea trade.
After analyzing the reason, it remains to be true that the pirates held a meeting on Wolf Island are not true.
It shouldn't be true.
Luo Xin only thought about it for a moment and felt that this matter was not true, but a conspiracy. Because in the Daming Sea, only Wang Zhi can fight with the Ming army now, and the remaining small and medium-sized pirates, including those who are really Japanese, are not enough to fight with the Ming army. Therefore, these real and false Japanese are just mobile battles, and they fight against the Ming official army, and they have always been able to fight if they can get by, and they will leave if they can't fight. And their attack on Daming was very sudden, and there was collusion with the people on the shore, knowing when, where, and where there was emptiness.
There has never been a situation like this, where all the forces are concentrated on Wolf Island and the main force of the Ming Dynasty is to collide.
The pirates weren't crazy, they weren't stupid, they wouldn't do that.
So, what are they doing this for?
Objective......
Wang Zhi had the strength to negotiate with the court, but they didn't. So they don't want to open the sea, they just want smuggling. There should be those families in the southeast who think like this.
In this way......
Luo's confidence is a jump.
"Their purpose is me!"
Luo Xin understood that as long as he killed Luo Xin, the matter of opening the sea would be over. The reason why the Japanese invaders publicized the matter of the meeting on Lang'er Island was to attract Hu Zongxian's main forces to Lang'er Island, so that Dong'an's troops would become empty, and then these would-be would-be would-be killed directly in Hangzhou. At that time, Hangzhou's troops were empty, and those pirates had a great chance of breaking through Hangzhou, so that they could not only kill him Luo Xin, but also loot Hangzhou. This kind of thing has not happened before, in history, the Japanese used false news to attract the Ming official army, and then broke through Suzhou, burning and looting in Suzhou.
"Hu Zongxian has been fooled!"
Luo Xin stood up, his mood became very bad, he knew that he had to stop Hu Zongxian as soon as possible. However, will he be able to stop Hu Zongxian?
It's fine if you can stop it, but what if you can't stop it?
