It was said that it was a banquet, but in fact it was just steamed buns with pickles. Under the current conditions, there was no delicious food. Han Zhongyu was just using the banquet to discuss merits and rewards. Everyone was just like-minded and did not care about the peace of the people. What to eat, very excited!
In fact, Han Zhongyu has not been idle in the past two days. From the homes of officials in Tai'an Mansion, more than 600,000 taels of gold and nearly 3.9 million taels of silver were confiscated, as well as other gold and silver jewelry, pearls, white jade and coral. Countless ornaments are waiting for you!
In three years, the prefect of Qing Dynasty told him that one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver was too little!
Han Zhongyu carefully checked the taxes and silver owed by Tai'an Mansion over the years, and escorted 600,000 taels of gold and one million taels of silver to the capital to pay the taxes to the emperor.
Part of the remaining 2.9 million taels will be used to purchase supplies and food to help the people of Tai'an Prefecture get out of the disaster as soon as possible, and the other part will be transferred to local finance to ensure the normal operation of Tai'an Prefecture.
Of course, we can't let Yi Shuihan lead a group of brothers and risk their heads on a wasted trip!
Originally, Han Zhongyu wanted to directly allocate one thousand taels of silver to Yi Shuihan and let him divide it among himself, but Yi Shuihan refused repeatedly and only said
"Brothers risked their lives to come here, firstly, to give me face, and secondly, because they have justice in their hearts and don't want to see the people suffer. For this meritorious service, it is up to you, the imperial envoy, to personally judge the merits and reward them!
As for me, why am I unlucky to have a brother like you? Consider me a helper! Go back and send me two, no, ten jars of the good wine you collected, just ten jars! "
When Han Zhongyu heard that his good friend asked for ten altars, his face changed visibly, and he gritted his teeth and said
"Why don't you just serve it to my Han family wine cellar!"
"I'm afraid of your grandpa!"
"you!
Two altars! "
"Eight altars"
"Two altars"
"Six altars"
"Two altars"
“Ouch, my arm hurts so much!
My heart might have been shot through!
Ouch! My waist is dripping! Such a long opening!
I almost died on the mountain and couldn't even drink! It’s a mistake to make friends! "
"Four altars, no more! Do you want love?"
"make a deal!"
The person who was shouting a second ago is immediately resurrected with full health!
You must know that the wine collected by his grandfather is priceless! Han Zhongyu's heart was bleeding when he was blackmailed!
Even though he was blackmailed once, Han Zhongyu still gave two taels of silver to each of the brothers who came with Yi Shuihan.
Among them, those who were injured were given one tael of extra medicine, those who had made great achievements were given 20 taels, and those who had made minor merits were given five to two taels. Several people who died in battle were given thirty taels of pension money.
The total of zero and zero is less than nine hundred taels.
Han Zhongyu secretly hated Yi Shuihan again because he was too cunning and could not buy his grandfather's four jars of good wine for a hundred taels!
After all, he hasn't been beaten by his grandfather in ten years!
It was Yi Shuihan who persuaded him to steal his grandfather's wine last time. They drank six jars of his grandfather's good wine and were drunk for three days. When he woke up, his buttocks were swollen for three days!
His grandfather was an upright official, and his only hobby was this drink. He couldn't think about it anymore, and his butt hurt again just thinking about it!
After appreciating the brothers from Chuzhou, Han Zhongyu cheered up, looked at Xie Tianqi, Liu Qiang and the others, and said
"You saved me from danger, and indirectly saved the people of the city from fire and water. I will consider you a great contribution and reward each of you with twenty taels of silver.
In addition, the former Yamen's police officers followed Zhang Zhidao and committed evil, so naturally they can no longer be used. The Yamen needs to recruit new people. Are you willing to stay?
But now that my ugly words have come to an end, my subordinates will not tolerate people who use their power to bully others and do evil things! "
After hearing this, Xie Tianqi and the Liu brothers were so excited that they immediately knelt down to express their stance, but were stopped by Xie Yushu.
"Master Han, please allow me to say a few words. Brothers Liu Nan and Liu Bei are good at skills and act in a safe manner. It is natural to be a policeman and be safe, and they can also help you at this time!
However, Xie Tianqi and Liu Xiaodong are, first of all, young and not very thorough in their actions. Secondly, their martial arts skills are too weak and they need to be trained. Can they be allowed to serve as Jin officials, with Liu Qiang leading them, so that they can ensure that the ferry is strictly guarded by adults? ! "
Han Zhongyu smiled helplessly
"You, you, you! A daughter's family has a huge appetite!
These few half-people want to swallow everything in the water and on the ground of Tai'an Mansion! Don’t be afraid to hold on! "
After hearing what Han Zhongyu said, Liu Qiang and others realized that Xie Yushu's intention was the entire Tai'an Mansion. They secretly sighed that Xie Yushu had a long-term vision, but they were also worried whether Han Zhongyu would agree!
"Master Han is joking. We are just these few and a half people. We are talking about whether we can swallow it or not. This Tai'an Mansion has turned your head upside down. Someone has to help you hold it down. They can just help you. With just a few of them, you can't swallow it." I can’t make any waves, I’m just following you to make a living!
Moreover, these brothers of mine are not evil-doers. When they are on duty, they must abide by their duties. If they dare to imitate those cruel officials and oppress the people, I will be the first to not spare them!
"You have said that for this reason, if I don't agree, you will accuse me of being ungrateful! Forget it, there is a shortage of people everywhere now! Liu Qiang, Xie Tianqi and Liu Xiaodong, the three of you are willing to go to the Ministry of Water Resources to work as Tianjin officials ?”
"The little one is willing
The people are willing"
The three of them answered immediately.
This is very good, then Liu Nan and Liu Bei will stay in the government office as detectives. Liu Qiang, Xie Tianqi, and Liu Xiaodong will report to the Ministry of Water Resources tomorrow.
"Yes, sir!"
"However, no matter whether it is the Yamen or the Water Department, it is impossible for anyone to have a say. Some people will be selected one after another later. Whether you can stay in it depends on your own ability!"
Han Zhongyu still made a point.
"Thank you for your advice, sir. I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
Han Zhongyu nodded with satisfaction and turned to ask Xie Yushu
"What reward do you want? Just say it!
Speaking of which, you brought me back from hell, and you gave me a lot of good medicine. No matter what you want, as long as it is within my capabilities, you can do it! "
Looking at the serious Xie Yushu in front of him, Han Zhongyu felt that she didn't take him seriously!
On the surface, she was quite respectful to him, Master Han. If he didn't agree to the conditions she just mentioned, she would definitely bargain with him!
Han Zhongyu was ready to be blackmailed again, but Xie Yushu said
"It was just a little effort for me to save you. It's admirable that you risked your life to save the people!"
What's more, your lord has promoted my younger brother to be a Jin official! The peasant woman has nothing more to ask for! "
Trying to ignore the harsh voice, Han Zhongyu dug his ears.
"In this case, I will give you one hundred taels of silver in my own name as medicine fee!
I remember you said that your great detoxification pill is very rare! And the alcohol used for disinfection later is very easy to use. It’s not cheap, right?
After all, I am an official of the imperial court, how can I take advantage of a woman like you! "
As he spoke, he took out a hundred-tael silver note from his sleeve and handed it to Xie Yushu.
I thought Xie Yushu would refuse, but who would have thought that Xie Yushu would take it and put it in her arms?
"Thank you very much, sir!"
Han Zhongyu...
Well, he has never encountered this way of doing things! He thought he had to give in for a round anyway!
"Um~ If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me!"
"OK!"
Xie Yushu agreed without any burden. After all, after spending so many days and taking so many risks, saving such a person was just for use!
