Section 707 Gold Rush (5)
In the next two days, public opinion continued to ferment.
Rumors of gold are very loud in Guanzhong.
Even the tenants in Shanglin Yuan are ready to move, and the princes and doctors are desperately trying to refute the rumors.
There are also countless local celebrities who gather local fathers and elders and declare: Fathers and elders, the poor in Huaihua don't even have firewood to burn, where is the gold? Don't believe the rumors, let alone the agitation of careerists with ulterior motives......
Some people believe it, and these celebrities and local clan bigwigs still have a high prestige in the countryside.
After all, most of the people are illiterate, and they are still very convinced of these intellectuals and officials.
Since, a certain patriarch and a certain scholar have said that these are rumors, then they should be rumors, right?
These big people shouldn't even want their reputation, and rely on this means to defraud us folks, right?
This is going to be exposed, how will they mix it up in the future?
However, there are also many smart people who have discovered: Why is there no movement at all in the Lubu of the government?
In the past, as soon as similar rumors broke out, Neishi, the lieutenant, the lieutenant and the guard lieutenant were all like great enemies, all kinds of exposed cloth stickers flew all over the sky, and there were countless widows, wanderers, walking in the pavilion, doing work door to door, asking the head of the household to restrain the young and strong in the family, and not to listen to the wind and rain.
But now, not only did Neishi have no reaction, but even the county soldiers who were originally stationed in the beacon pavilions in various counties also did not move.
It was as if they had disappeared en masse.
That's weird......
The first to react, of course, were the rangers with great powers.
These guys have noses as sensitive as dogs, and they immediately smell something is wrong.
And. The rangers now have a backstage!
Among the Eagle Dog Yamen embroidered guards of the Son of Heaven, some of them were brothers who had eight worships in the past.
Thereupon. These guys went home one after another and carried a pound of meat. Bring some wine and go straight to the brothers' house.
Half a day later, I walked out of the door drunk and hazy.
As soon as they went out, these rangers woke up from their wines, and they gritted their teeth and looked at the homes of the local tycoons and celebrities.
The rangers said: I bought a watch last year, uncle, you liars! Even the old folks deceived him, it's shameless!
As a result, the mansions of celebrities, squires and heroes from all over the world suffered one after another.
The rangers didn't dare to knock on the door. But things like throwing stones to smash the threshold of your house, flowers and plants in the yard, crying wolves at the door in the middle of the night, arguing that your house is restless, and so on, they are the best at it.
Many of the rangers, however, immediately chose to go home and sell their property, if any.
In fact, where did most of the rangers get their possessions?
These guys have already lost all the fields left by their fathers and grandparents, and they used to rely on eating at Uncle Kunzhong's house. Or fool around in Chang'an City.
They all felt that they had the style of their ancestors, and maybe one day they would be able to go home and pretend to say in front of their father or Uncle Kunzhong: Master Shi thinks that the ministers are scoundrels and cannot govern the industry. It's not as good as Zhongli. What is the business of today?
Just thinking about this scene, the rangers feel that the future is really good.
Of course. The biggest feature of the rangers group. It's just about morality.
For brothers, don't say it's a knife in both ribs, even if you don't want your life.
Be rich. Of course, you have to take your brothers with you!
So, the big guys gathered in groups of three or five, and each took out the coil and calculated.
In some ranger groups, there are some local powerful sons or celebrities, these people are all local tyrants, so they naturally wave their hands and cover all the road expenses of the brothers.
However, most of the rangers are bitter haha, and there is no local tyrant to save them.
A few people pooled the money and found that it was not enough for the big guy's travel expenses along the way.
Maybe halfway through, you'll starve to death.
How good is that......
Many people decided to do a vote before leaving, but these guys soon found that the security in this pass suddenly became tense.
In the local pavilions and in the cities, there are dense patrolling officials and officials, and there are even some who were famous in the past, but now they have been whitewashed and have become the ranger giants of Liu's eagle dogs, taking their little brothers and wandering around.
Under such circumstances, no one dares to commit a crime against the wind.
Everyone was sure that as long as they dared to commit crimes, then these officials and eagle dogs who were familiar with their people like the livestock at home would definitely be able to arrest themselves and others within two hours.
These officials and officials and embroidered eagle dogs can recognize the means and methods of these rangers even with their eyes closed.
On weekdays, they are too lazy to care.
However, whoever dares to play these tricks in front of them is tantamount to provocation, and provocation is death, and death will definitely die.
As for getting out of the customs, and then getting entangled on the road?
The Ranger is even less daring.
The rangers have their own rules and territory.
Not to mention finding food across regions, even if you cross counties, you have to be taught to be a person.
Fishing across the line, you are a vegetarian when you are a local ranger?
When foreign rangers make trouble, local rangers will definitely be more active in looking for suspects than the government.
Back then, the Hanoi Ranger giant, the world-famous hero of Taizong, Guo Feng of the Hanoi wealthy Guo family, swaggered and wanted to come to Guanzhong to play prestige, but he was taught to be a man by the rangers in Guanzhong, and was planted with N+ crimes, and finally, this world-famous hero, and even married the daughter of Ming Female Pavilion Xu Cheng, who was sentenced to death in Chang'an, and abandoned the city.
Guo Feng is a famous man in the world, and he has to be taught to be a man.
How dare anyone else do such a thing?
As a result, these people immediately fell into embarrassment.
There is no entanglement, let alone walking thousands of miles, out of Xiaoguan, and through Liaodong to find gold.
When these guys were entangled and confused, some businessmen or local wealthy housekeepers came to the door one after another, expressing their willingness to provide sub-money loans. The interest rate is very favorable, borrow 10,000 yuan and return it in a year, as long as you repay two gold.
Although there is no clear official exchange ratio between the price of gold and the five-baht coin, in the private sector, one gold can be exchanged for about 10,000 baht coins, and in some cases, it can be exchanged for 11,000 baht.
Faced with almost twice the annual interest, the rangers hesitated.
The Han family does not repay the debt, but it is a big crime!
The government will not have any guys who do not repay their debts, and the money merchants have great powers, and you can abscond if you kill people, but if you don't pay off your debts, there is no way to escape.
Even if you die, the creditor can chase after your relatives and friends to ask for debts.
Just then, another bombshell exploded. (To be continued.) )
PS: The first update is sent, and today it is still 3 more~
