Hearing Lu Ci's sigh, Ning Hu couldn't help but sigh.
Not to mention Lu Ci, Ning Hu has never seen him!
Where is the war? It’s just making money!
Although Qin Feng had not given any orders to attack since the beginning of the offensive, all the soldiers were hiding far away for fear of being killed by stray arrows shot from the city.
The casualty rate of the soldiers was almost negligible, but in just twenty days, the money poured in had reached one hundred thousand taels of silver.
This does not include the loss of food and grass, but only the money thrown in by the catapult.
Ning Hu couldn't help but sigh: "I have never fought this kind of battle for wealth in eight lifetimes."
Qin Feng ignored Ning Hu's muttering and concentrated on comforting Lu Ci: "If General Lu doesn't mind, just stay in this military camp for a while."
Upon hearing this, Lu Ci's head almost shook like a rattle.
"Thank you Mr. Qin for your kindness. There is no need to stay here for a short time. After all, these two thousand people have two thousand mouths. How can Mr. Qin spend money?"
"It's better than this. Mr. Qin will settle us down as soon as possible according to the price written in the surrender edict."
Speaking of this, Lu Ci deliberately added: "With Master Qin's reputation, you won't regret it, right?"
Without thinking, Qin Feng took out a contract from his sleeve and slapped it in front of Lu Ci.
"This is a bank promissory note under the jurisdiction of Tianjiying. In the entire Tianjiying and even Beixi County, there are less than one person who has the right to use this blank promissory note."
"As long as you take the cashier's check and go to any bank under the jurisdiction of Tianjiying, you can get the money. Not only that, wherever you want to transport it, Tianjiying will send someone to help you transport the money you owe to ensure your safety. "
"I can write down the proof of eight hundred thousand taels of silver on the contract now."
Lu Ci's eyes gleamed. If these words were spoken by others, Lu Ci would just laugh them off, but Qin Feng was different.
This guy has a lot of money!
He was able to build the entire Beixi army on his own, and the Tianji Battalion under his command made a living by making money, covering both military and daily life. The bottom line is that this guy Qin Feng is extremely rich!
But Lu Ci was not stupid. He realized that Qin Feng obviously meant something.
"Master Qin, if you have anything to say, just say it clearly. The general is a rough man and will not speculate on his thoughts."
Qin Feng thought to himself that this Lu Ci was sincere, so he stopped beating around the bush.
"General Lu, looking at your age, you are not forty, but thirty-five, right?"
Although Lu Ci didn't understand Qin Feng's deep meaning, after all, his wealth and life were in Qin Feng's hands, so he naturally didn't dare to hesitate and answered quickly: "I'm no longer confused."
Qin Feng nodded and continued to ask: "How many children do you have?"
Lu Ci frowned slightly, but still answered: "Two sons and one daughter, the family has two wives, one big and one small."
In order to prevent Qin Feng from continuing to ask, Lu Ci simply answered proactively: "My parents are still alive, and there are more than a dozen cousins who are attached to humble positions."
Qin Feng immediately asked: "You got the money and went to my territory in Daliang to eat and drink spicy food. Have you ever thought about what will happen to this big family?"
Lu Ci was extremely conflicted before and was reluctant to rebel because he was worried about his family.
The news of Lu Ci's rebellion will soon spread back to the royal capital. By then, his whole family will definitely be razed to the ground!
Seeing Lu Ci's sad eyes, Qin Feng immediately struck while the iron was hot: "Not just you, but also the generals under your command, I have drawn two clear paths for you, and it is up to you to choose."
"If you want money, I will give you the bank's promissory note immediately. This promissory note will be your basis. When you go to any bank under the jurisdiction of Tianji Camp, the bank will help you transport the debt and arrange everything for the house and fields. .”
"If you choose a family member, each general will be given 10,000 taels of silver for housing expenses, and each officer will be given 5 taels of silver."
"I will keep your family safe, and you will be able to reunite with your family within a month."
Lu Ci's dejected eyes suddenly became extremely bright.
Because he was so excited, his body was trembling slightly: "Master Qin, are you serious about this?"
Before Qin Feng could answer, Ning Hu on the side yelled angrily: "What is this?"
"Isn't the name Qin Feng enough?"
Lu Ci nodded repeatedly: "What you are saying is that Mr. Qin has already become famous all over the world, so how can he go back on his word?"
"If the family is razed, what's the use of getting gold and silver?"
"In the end, I am willing to choose the second path and only take 10,000 to keep my family safe."
According to the content of the surrender letter, Lu Ci could monopolize 800,000 taels of silver. For this huge sum of money, anyone was said to be able to eat and drink without worries in this life, even in the next life.
But Lu Ci still chose his family without hesitation, which shows that this guy is not a complete bastard.
Even Lu Ci agreed so happily, and the other generals naturally chose the latter without hesitation.
Qin Feng summoned all the defecting generals and announced loudly: "I have more to say."
"Since you have chosen your family, it means that you have no choice but to rebel. In this case, in addition to the settlement expenses and the safety of your family, I will give you another huge benefit!"
"Do you want to bear the name of a traitor for the rest of your life, and die in a foreign land from generation to generation?"
"Or become famous, become a hero respected by Beidi, and honor our ancestors?"
Although the rebel generals of Beidi chose to rebel, they were all hot-blooded soldiers after all. The thought of being infamy felt like a thorn in their hearts.
Now when they heard Qin Feng's words, everyone felt confused.
Even if Qin Feng has great abilities, he will not turn the traitor into a hero.
"Young Master Qin, you are so good at joking. I'm afraid it won't be long before the entire Dadi will regard us as mortal enemies. As for shining the lintel? I can't even think about it." Lu Ci shook his head and sighed, unable to help but smile bitterly.
Qin Feng narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Since I said it, I can naturally do it. I just ask you if you are willing."
Lu Ci sighed: "If you can really return to your hometown with peace of mind, is there any reason not to obey?"
What Qin Feng was waiting for was this sentence: "Very good! In that case, you don't have to move into our Daliang territory and remain anonymous."
"Now, this state on the border of Beidi has become a buffer for our Daliang army, making it difficult for the Beidi army to enter."
"You will settle here, and I will naturally send people to help you build a village stronghold."
"From today on, these two thousand of you are the loyal army that supports the orthodoxy of the Beidi royal family!"
Lu Ci looked at Qin Feng blankly: "Support the royal family's orthodoxy? Mr. Qin, what do you mean? Why do I get more and more confused the more I listen to it?"
"To support orthodoxy, at the very least, we need to have a royal family first, right? Even if we do, the world will have its own judgment on whether it is orthodox or not. Why do we need to bring order to the chaos?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng couldn't help but laugh: "Beidi's orthodox royal family? I have one ready by my side."
