Chapter 35: Selling Military Merit

Li Jing gradually calmed down, Feng Liang is indeed a gentleman, but Li Jing has not forgotten that he is from the Bohai Feng family, and his uncle is not only the governor of Dengzhou, but also the deputy envoy of the Dengzhou regiment.

Feng Liang seemed to be talking about a very simple little thing, patting Li Jing's shoulder, while spitting wine and chuckling about his plan.

"Isn't Dengzhou already aware of the banditry? Feng Goro's proposal doesn't seem to be feasible, right? Li Jing asked him.

"Brother is still a little tender, this officialdom matter, in fact, not all of them know each other and help each other. Besides, we just need to know the way of this matter, and it has nothing to do with other people. As he spoke, Feng Liang slapped a wine gap.

Li Jing endured the unpleasant smell of wine and said, "With Feng Wulang's family background, if Uncle Ling makes a move, I'm afraid it will be easy to find an official position for you, right?" But I don't know why Gorou is so complicated to go far. ”

"You don't know this, from the people to the officials, in fact, is the most difficult step. Once you have an official position, it is a simple matter to be promoted in the future. Although my uncle has a long history, after all, there is a thorn on it, and some things are not easy to do and too ugly. But if my brother is willing to do me a favor, it's different. Brother asked your brother to let me have two first-level merits, even if Cui Tingshi knew about this matter, he wouldn't really care about it so much. This is what you and I want, the army has done too much, and he can't control too much of a thorn history. If you really want to take care of it, you will provoke the anger of the people. ”

Li Jing was nauseated for a while, turned his head and burped softly, Li Jing's alcohol consumption was quite good, but he drank too much, and he couldn't stand it after all.

"Brother, I won't ask for your military merit in vain. I am a person who does things, and I will always be happy if you are happy. Brother, you say, even if your brother keeps those two first-level military merits, what can he do? It's nothing more than a reward and a reward of money. But now there is no reward in the imperial court, even if there is really a reward, from the top, it is necessary to divide the profit layer by layer, and how many can you get it. Brother will tell you the truth, I don't want those two heads in vain, I will bid fifty thousand each! Feng Liang didn't know whether he was really drunk or fake, shook his head, and offered a price to Li Jing by comparison.

Fifty thousand for a head, that's not a decimal number. The reward for the cheek face of the big boss of Xihuo Village is only a hundred silk horses, twenty thousand money, and the total is only one hundred thousand. And the bounty for those little minions is only ten horses of silk and five yuan per person, and the first level bounty for each of the minions that are given up is only thirteen thousand. There is a reward of 26,000 for the first rank of the two minions, and according to the military merits, the two first ranks are also worth 10,000. The reward and the military merit reward are combined, the two first levels are worth 36,000 yuan, Feng Liang took 100 yuan in exchange, and they did not suffer a loss in the small stone, and they also earned 64,000 yuan.

Seeing that Li Jing didn't answer, Feng Liang thought that Li Jing didn't have enough money, so he immediately said: "Of course, the two heads will be given to me, but I don't want to reward me for rewards and military merits, and the thirty-six yuan added together will still be given to you." ”

Li Jing sighed a little in his heart, Feng Liang was really willing to spend money, in order to buy two heads for meritorious service, he was willing to spend 136 yuan, which is a lot of laughing money, which is equivalent to the belongings of a small landlord in the countryside.

He smiled bitterly: "Brother, I don't mean anything else, it's just that the things before and after have already been reported to the state government." Now, even if the brothers are willing to give this head to Gorou, I'm afraid that it will not be easy to get it from above. If the above are to be investigated, I am only worried that not only will my brothers be punished, but they will also be punished. ”

"Don't worry about this." Feng Liang waved his hand, "The official document is still in the state, and it has not been submitted to the Jiedu Mansion and the imperial court." As long as the elder brother and your brothers agree on this, then nothing else. In fact, this deal is very cost-effective, one hundred and thirty-six times, for two heads, this deal is definitely worth it. If it weren't for my brother, I was in a hurry to get an official, and you really couldn't touch such a good thing. ”

At this time, Li Jing remembered a sentence in his heart, life is sometimes like rape, if you can't resist, then close your eyes and enjoy it.

In the face of Feng Liang's request, he can actually use Cui Tingshi as a shield. But if you think about it carefully, even if you are a little resentful in your heart, in fact, it is not as Feng Liang said, this is actually a very cost-effective deal. Xiaoshi, they are all from peasant families in Wangli Village like themselves, even if they don't give up their military exploits, even if they don't deduct anything from the above, the most they can get is a reward of eighteen times per person. No matter how much, get a few words of commendation, promote a captain or something, but if you want to go up, there is no one above, don't think about it.

Now that he has given up the military merit head, he can immediately get a reward of sixty-eight yuan by himself, and in a certain way, helping Feng Liang is also a gesture of goodwill with the Feng family. At present, Li Jing has become Cui Yunqing's protΓ©gΓ©, and Cui Yunqing and Feng Yanqing are not on good terms, and the immortals are fighting, so it is inevitable that he, a mortal, will suffer. But if you help Feng Liang with this, maybe the Feng family may not make it difficult for him as a pawn in the future.

Li Jing also thought about giving two of his military merits to Feng Liang, but these first-level military exploits are also related to Li Jing's future. Li Jing didn't want to miss this opportunity, and Xiaoshi was different. Li Jing has Cui Yunqing as a teacher, and he will definitely have a good future in the future, but Xiaoshi and the others have to ask him to take care of it.

After thinking about it for a long time, Li Jing gradually planned to agree to this matter in his heart.

"Brother Feng is really willing to take out this money to compensate them? If that's the case, I can make it clear to my brothers that they will give you military merit. ”

After hearing this, Feng Liang showed a bright smile on his face: "Brother really didn't misunderstand my brother, don't worry, I, Feng Liang, am not the kind of villain who doesn't believe in his words." In this way, two heads, I will give one hundred and forty thousand. In addition, if they are willing to give me the third first-rank military merit, brother, I am willing to give another hundred and forty thousand. ”

Three first-level military merits, in exchange for two hundred and eighty yuan, Li Jing was so moved when he heard it, he almost wanted to take out his first-level military merits and sell them for money.

"Okay, Brother Feng is arrogant, I will agree for my brothers. But let's say it, we're just giving you the first-level military merits, and as for how Brother Feng handles other things, we don't care, and we can't control it. ”

Feng Liang patted his chest and said: "The three first ranks are second-class military merits, and you can almost directly get one from the ninth rank to the official rank." Rest assured, everything else is fine. ”

As he spoke, he patted Li Jing on the shoulder and said, "Of course, my brother will not forget my brother's favor, in this way, my brother has raised a few good horses, and tomorrow, my brother will send you one." Then, he took out a piece of paper from his arms, "This is the flying money of my Fengjiaxuan and Rui cabinets, the ticket is worth five hundred yuan, as long as you hold this ring again, whether it is the two capitals or the cities of the world, you can take five hundred yuan worth of money or silk, rice, millet and so on in my Fengjiaxuan and Rui's cabinets." Of these, 280 are used to thank your brother for giving me the rank of military merit, and the rest is a thank you gift to my brother. ”

Li Jing couldn't help but be knocked down by Feng Liang's rain of money, five hundred yuan, plus a good war horse, together it must be worth at least 600,000 yuan. Damn, in order to be promoted, I actually took out almost 600,000 yuan before and after, how much money do you have for this dog's day. At this time, the unhappiness in his heart was completely soothed by such a large amount of money.

This sale, done!

Li Jing unceremoniously pocketed the flying money and the ring as a token, the money had already arrived, he was not worried that Feng Liang would break his promise after taking the first rank of military merit.

"Let's go, let's have two more drinks, let's not get drunk today." Feng Liang saw that the matter was done, and his smiling face was like a chrysanthemum, "We will be our own family in the future, with Cui Yuanjun as the teacher, and my Feng family as a friend, the future of my brother will not be bright in the future!" ”

"Promise your good words!" Li Jing took all the money at this time, and he had to sing with Feng Liang, although he knew that Cui Yunqing and Feng Yanqing were not compatible, but what could he do as a pawn?
