Chapter Twenty-Nine: Scrambling to Send Money

"Its array is like a forest, and it is powerful. This gun array is on the table, and it is difficult to rush into battle within three steps. ”

"There's a gun array in front and a gun in the back, and it's even more powerful when it comes together. I heard that it was this firecracker that allowed Lord Qin to defeat Li Yan's soldiers in one fell swoop. Then Li Yan is the No. 1 fierce man under the command of the thief......"

Li Wenlin from Puyang County listened to the voices of other people talking about it, and his heart was suddenly amazed. In the afterglow, Li Wenlin glanced at Sun Rufei of the Sun family in Dongming County, who was sitting and smiling, and scolded in his heart, he thought that this Sun family would have known the power of this soldier for a long time, and then took refuge in Qin Xia. Hate yourself...... I realized today that I'm afraid it's too late.

"The cavalry phalanx is coming!"

"And cannons, a lot of cannons!"

"What a strong soldier...... What a powerful soldier! ”

"Look, what's that? Oh my God, that's the thief's flag, it's ......"

Everyone was talking, but Li Wenlin's voice was lowered at the end: "This is showing off martial arts......

One after another dilapidated flags appeared, and the names that had been rampant in Dongming and Puyang resurfaced in front of everyone's eyes.

Shi Jiuyun, Qin Daluo, Jiang Bu, Li Guogui......

It's just that the flags with big characters such as Shi, Qin, Jiang, and Li written on them are extremely dilapidated, and they were casually thrown on a carriage by the officials and soldiers. Everyone understands that they don't need to worry about the attack of these intruders.

Now the armed forces are strong, and the guards are Shandong Town and Linqing Camp under Zhu Cihong!

This also means...... This war-torn land has now changed owners.

"The officers and soldiers are mighty! Daming Wansheng! Just when Li Wenlin and other gentry and businessmen were talking about it, suddenly. In the crowd of onlookers, a man with a disheveled hair and a thin wood shouted in a hoarse voice.

Zhu Cihong looked sideways. Sun Rufei on the side suddenly sighed and said, "My lord, please forgive this person for being rude." This person is called Zhou Xin. There are about 30 acres of land in the family, and they can be regarded as decent talents. It's a pity that after the thief Li Yan's department came, Zhou Xin's wife was robbed and insulted. Since then, Zhou Xin has gone crazy...... Poor man...... too."

Obviously, there are not a few people who have the same experience as Zhou Xin.

When the official army defeated these thieves who were ravaging Dongming County, they held their banners to show off their martial arts.

Countless people who were ravaged by thieves and ruined their homes wailed in pain, and shouted even more excitedly.

"The official army is mighty, and the Ming Dynasty wins!"

"The official army is mighty, and the Ming Dynasty wins!"

……

Suddenly, Zhu Cihong stood up. looked at the countless officers and soldiers in the audience and said: "Tell me, what are the soldiers going to Kaifeng for?" ”

"Enter Kaifeng and save Dawn! Defend the country and win the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Enter Kaifeng and save Dawn! Defend the country and win the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Enter Kaifeng and save Dawn! Defend the country and win the Ming Dynasty! ”

……

Thousands shouted in unison. Loud in the sky.

And the people on the side shouted frantically.

"Enter Kaifeng and save Dawn! Defend the country and win the Ming Dynasty! ”

……

Behind Zhu Cihong. A cadre of gentry and merchants looked at this scene and could not calm down for a long time. Until Zhu Cihong took them into the prison army mansion and faced a house full of delicacies. He still keeps telling what he has seen and heard today, and he is also mixed with the scenes of officials and soldiers seen in several other places. This contrast. It has brought countless talking points.

"How can the other soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have such a big gap with Lord Qin Yiming's soldiers? Henan's soldiers, that's a group of people called Huazi! ”

"In fact, the soldiers in Shandong were not much better. It's the same group of people called Huazi, and it's better for the family under Liu Zeqing. But now that the soldiers of Shandong Town are in the hands of Qin Yiming, they have changed so much......"

"The country is in turmoil, thinking about the good generals, ......"

"It's that Lord Qin Yiming is so powerful, I'm afraid it's ...... Hey hey ......"

"Silence...... Don't forget that we're lambs to the slaughter! ”

……

Eventually, the chatter calmed down. Obviously, after being invited over by Zhu Cihong, these people finally understood what this meant.

Zhu Cihong's smile is gentle and kind, and in the eyes of any woman, she will be heartbroken, and a deer will jump and jump. But to a businessman, it is like a butcher looking at lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

Some of the gentry are okay, Puyang and Dongming are both wars and turmoil, and the place is restless. is often blackmailed by military leaders and bandits from all sides, and he has long accepted his fate. Even if Zhu Cihong doesn't mention it, they will also prepare, just to watch the dishes be served. Today, Zhu Cihong showed off his martial arts, and they naturally increased their weight, intending to give a number that satisfied Zhu Cihong.

As for the other merchants who came to the Qing Dynasty, the ingredients were a little complicated. The few people with deep backgrounds are naturally not worried that Zhu Cihong is too much, and it is a big deal to give some money and food.

But most of the other businessmen who came were not with deep backgrounds, and most of them understood that this was Zhu Cihong's intention, and he found a group of "nouveau riche" who did not rely on their backgrounds and relied on their personal skills and abilities.

For these nouveau riche, the outbreak is just because of the sudden wealth, but it is not as high-profile as in later generations. Because once there is a high-profile one, it has long been killed and robbed of money, where is there still gas to talk here? To the powerful, aren't merchants lambs to the slaughter?

Actually, these people didn't intend to come in the first place. It was forced by the two major snakes of Linqing Zhizhou and Yangchuan, and was shocked by the name of the tax division, so he came to Henan. Naturally, everyone feels in their hearts what kind of identity they are at the moment and what scenarios they may face.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, Zhu Cihong also coughed lightly, squinted at a group of gentry and businessmen, and said, "How do you feel when you watch the military parade of the Linqing camp in Shandong Town today?" ”

It's time to play meat!

Isn't it just to force donations and ask for money to call these people all the way to them?

For a moment, the crowd was slightly cold.

Only the representatives of the gentry in Puyang and Dongming rushed to be the first. I saw Li Wenlin say loudly: "My lord...... Students look at it today, although the officers and soldiers are neatly organized, they are quite lacking in armor. In this way, the students are willing to donate 3,000 taels of silver to help the king to suppress the ......"

On the side, I saw that Li Wenlin actually took the lead. Sun Rufei suddenly became anxious and said loudly: "My lord! The young son of the student, Sun He, has always practiced martial arts and chivalry, and is willing to take 200 Dongming righteous soldiers to sign up for the army! The students also represented the Sun family and Dongming, donating 3,000 stone of grain and 2,000 taels of silver! ”

"I, a Puyang boy, also sincerely signed up to join the army, and joined such a mighty division......" Li Wenlin saw Sun Rufei fighting so hard, and his son was sent out, and he suddenly became even more anxious. (To be continued......)
