Chen Yusheng, who was standing next to Wang Tong, also cupped his hands and said, "I have met Mr. Zhang."
Huang An, who was sitting in the same seat, said: "Mr. Zhang came to Lingqiu this time to guard the camp's pay."
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and pay!" Chen Yusheng said accordingly.
The garrison camp has not been paid for several months. Not to mention the ordinary soldiers, even the generals like them are not having a good life. If the Tiger Character Banner had not been secretly sending some money to support them, the soldiers below would barely survive. Eat, otherwise you will have to pay for it.
"This" Huang An turned to look at Zhang Wenhe.
Zhang Wenhe took a sip of tea and said: "The bandit suppression money collected by the governor is used to suppress bandits. There are no bandits causing trouble in Lingqiu, nor are the people causing trouble. Naturally, the bandit suppression money will not be used by you to guard the camp. On the body."
Hearing this, Chen Yusheng looked at Huang An as if questioning.
You know, just now Huang An said that the other party was here for payment, but now he is saying this, it doesn't sound like he is here for payment.
Wang Tong on the side said: "So Mr. Zhang is not here to pay our generals who are guarding the camp on the order of the governor?"
Zhang Wenhe put the lid on the bowl and said with a smile: "It's not me who has the final say on whether you can pay or not, it's the two generals who have the final say."
Wang Tong and Chen Yusheng looked puzzled almost at the same time.
Among them, Chen Yusheng said: "What do you mean by Mr. Zhang's words? We are rough people. We might as well explain it more clearly."
Zhang Wenhe put the covered bowl in his hand on the table beside him and said with a smile: "The two generals should know very well whether there are bandits in Lingqiu. I can guarantee that as long as there is banditry in Lingqiu, the governor will definitely allocate one month's salary to come here. .”
"It's only been a month!" Chen Yusheng frowned.
They have been in arrears of pay for guarding the camp for almost half a year, and one month is simply not enough. Moreover, this month's pay is not sufficient. According to the rules, part of the military camp must be taken away, and part of Huang An's garrison must be taken away. In the end, it falls to In their hands, at most twenty-three out of ten.
"One month is already a lot." Huang An said, "If it weren't for the benevolence and righteousness of the governor, I might not even have enough salary for this month."
Wang Tong, who was standing with Chen Yusheng, said: "Mr. Zhang, do you want us to make a fake official document and send it to the army or the governor?"
There were a lot of frauds in the army, and he thought that Mr. Zhang in front of him wanted to get a share of the pay from their garrison camp.
Zhang Wenhe waved his hand slightly and asked with a smile: "Is there no banditry in Lingqiu?"
Wang Tong was immediately stunned.
If you want to ask if there are bandits in Lingqiu, there are, and there is a group of bandits that is so powerful that it needs an army to be exterminated by the imperial court. But there are no, there are not. Those bandits who were supposed to be bandits have started doing business safely. , and it was done on a large scale, so that not only did Lingqiu not see banditry, but the place was peaceful and the people lived more prosperously than elsewhere.
"What do you mean by Mr. Zhang's words?" Chen Yusheng frowned.
Zhang Wenhe asked with a smile: "Master Chen, you really don't understand?"
Chen Yusheng pursed his lips and did not answer.
Qianhu, who is the main garrison in Lingqiu, naturally understands who this Mr. Zhang in front of him is talking about. If there are bandits in Lingqiu, they are only on the mountain of Hutou Village.
Zhang Wenhe said with a smile: "You two are both sensible people, so you must understand what I mean."
Wang Tong asked: "Is this Mr. Zhang's intention or the Governor's intention?"
Huang An, who had been silent for a long time, said: "Mr. Zhang is the governor's right-hand man. Mr. Zhang came to Lingqiu on the order of the governor."
As he spoke, he cupped his hands to one side as a sign of respect.
Chen Yusheng and Wang Tong looked at each other.
They had heard before that the governor was going to take action against Hu Ziqi and Liu Heng, but they didn't expect it to be true.
At this time, Zhang Wenhe said: "Both of you are smart people, and you should know how to choose. As long as you are willing to work for the governor, and as long as the governor is still on the same day, the two of you will naturally be promoted and make a fortune in the future."
"What does Mr. Zhang want us to do?" Chen Yusheng asked.
"It's very simple." Zhang Wenhe said, "I think we all know about Tiger Flag's artillery building. As long as you two are willing to lead troops to find their artillery range and get the evidence of Tiger Character Banner's artillery building, the governor will take care of the rest. solve."
Chen Yusheng was silent in thought.
Wang Tong opened his mouth, but finally said nothing.
Huang An on the side advised: "You two, this is a good opportunity to join the governor. If you miss it, there will be no such good things in the future."
Zhang Wenhe picked up the tureen and took a sip of tea. His face was calm and he did not rush.
After a while, Chen Yusheng suddenly said: "Mr. Zhang, can you let us go back and think about it?"
"You?" Huang An frowned and said dissatisfied, "What are you still thinking about? Li Huaixin is just a general, he can still be bigger than the governor."
"It doesn't matter." Zhang Wenhe put down the tureen and said immediately: "I can give you two a day to think about it, but you two must understand that such an opportunity does not come at any time. If you miss this time, you will inevitably not be settled by the future."
Later on, there was a hint of threat in the words.
"I understand," Chen Yusheng said, "I will reply to Mr. Zhang as soon as possible."
Zhang Wenhe nodded.
Chen Yusheng added: "Mr. Zhang, can you give some salary first, so that we can give an explanation to the brothers below."
After speaking, he looked at Zhang Wenhe in front of him.
Huang An on the side interjected: "When the matter is settled, the governor will naturally give out the salary."
Zhang Wenhe said nothing, obviously acquiescing to Huang An's statement.
"That being the case, the two officials will take their leave first." Chen Yusheng bowed.
In the past, he would naturally not be in such a hurry to leave, and would not leave without making a fuss. However, this time he heard such important news from Mr. Zhang, and he had to rush back to the garrison camp.
Wang Tong beside him also saluted Huang An.
Huang An looked at Zhang Wenhe who was standing aside and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Zhang?"
Zhang Wenhe nodded.
Huang An then said: "Think carefully when you two go back. Normally you wouldn't even be able to see the governor in person. Now as long as you work for the governor, not only will you get paid, but you may even be promoted in the future. Such a good thing Not common.”
"What your Excellency said is absolutely true." Chen Yusheng said, "Before tomorrow, the two of us will give Mr. Zhang an answer."
Seeing that the two people still didn't agree, Huang An said impatiently: "Okay, let's go down! Go back and think about it yourself!"
"yes."
After saying that, Chen Yusheng and Wang Tong retreated from the room.
As soon as the two people left, Huang An snorted coldly and said: "Hmph, two dog meats are not worthy of being put on the table."
Zhang Wenhe on the side put down his tureen and said, "Master Huang, send someone to follow the two of them. As soon as they return to guard the camp, we will leave for Zhaojiayu immediately."
"Ah!" Huang An was stunned.
