When the family members of the soldiers got off the ship, the first thing they did was to find Lin Yiniang to return the money they had taken away from the Liang family.
No one expected that 95% of the people returned the money. There were also a few households who were sick at home in the winter and did not follow the island this time, so they did not bring the money back.
Song Tiegen's old wife was the first to hand over the money, and she also took the lead, bringing this matter to a successful conclusion!
Su Wei, Wu Yong, and the island owner were all stunned.
The money taken away from the Liang family was at least a few hundred guan per person, and it could be as much as a thousand guan. This was not a small amount of money.
To put it simply, this money is enough to feed these refugees for two lifetimes, and there is still some leftover.
The refugees are different. They are much poorer than the local mountain people in Xinghua. When the Liang family retreats, if they adopt such a last resort method, everyone will worry about not getting their money back.
Only Liang Chuan knew that these Qin people did not know how to act and did not dare to act recklessly.
First, the Qin people who are willing to go south are people with backbone and are willing to endure hardships. As long as people are willing to endure hardships, they will have ambitions and a bottom line. They will not do evil things, let alone do anything that does not belong to them. Otherwise, they can do whatever they want in the northwest, so why go all the way to the south?
Besides, Liang Chuan didn't just let anyone come and take away the family's money. This was conditional. Someone in the family must be in the Liang family army, which is quite likely someone in the army was a guarantor. Who dared to tamper with this money? For money, Liang Chuan can still find an explanation from his family.
Of course, this money is small money, so take it as it is. Instead of taking advantage of these Qin people, Liang Chuan doesn't want to take advantage of the two birdmen of Huangjinshan and Zheng Tu!
The Liang family has also spoken. As long as the money is brought to Penghu, the Liang family will definitely thank you and give you 30% of the reward!
Liang Chuanquan should have sent out the Liang Family Army's military pay for this year in advance. Just after the New Year, he once again won the hearts of his subordinates!
Su Wei personally set up a table at the pier and registered there!
The account book Yi Niang received the money for has been sent over, and she is also very worried. After all, she and Liang Chuan worked hard to get the money. If this money cannot be returned, the Liang family will have a hard time in the next few years. Got it!
The piles of money were piled on the dock. Su Wei checked them one by one. It was not an easy task to transport the money. One hundred strings of money was a small basket, and it was difficult to carry it. It would take several more trips, and some people took away gold at that time. At this time, traveling across states and counties is not as risky as usual!
Song Tiegen's wife sewed a few gold bars into her cotton-padded clothes and handed the money to Su Wei without a penny. With her as an example, the rest would be much easier, and everyone rushed to hand over the money.
Su Wei knew that it would not be easy to get the Liang family's money back this time. Liang Chuan also made a promise with these people, and the reward was 30%!
Thirty percent is very high!
Su Wei took a gold bar and gave it to Song Tiegen's wife on the spot.
Song Tiegen was also an old man in the Liang family army. They came from the northwest, and they were members of the same city-building camp as Liang Chuan. They were Liang Chuan's direct descendants through wind and rain. If they were always beggars, their status would be higher.
Song Tiegen was watching from the side. He did not go back. Now he was still a middle-level cadre of the Tianxiong Army. There were too many affairs in the army, so he could only ask someone to take care of his wife and children.
The two couples plopped down and knelt down in front of Liang Chuan and Su Wei, which shocked Liang Chuan and Su Wei!
'What are you two doing? '
'We dare not accept the money from the boss. '
Liang Chuan pulled Song Tiegen up hard, his face turned black.
'If I don't accept it, I won't accept it. Why are you kneeling to me? '
Song Tiegen, a seven-foot-tall man, expressed his feelings: "My wife, I have been telling her to quickly pack up her things at home, and don't want the acres of sweet potatoes in the field. Come here quickly, the island is short of manpower." , only then did we find out that the boss asked us to help transport the money. Our lives were given by the boss. How dare we accept money from the boss when we work for the boss! '
The plague broke out that year in Xinghua. If Liang Chuan hadn't taken the Little Heavenly Master up the mountain, they might not have settled down yet, so they would have been left alone on the mountain.
Besides, not to mention in Xinghua, even in the northwest, they were also desperate people. Without Liang Chuan to bring them out from the northwest, no one knows where they are buried now.
They are not so shameless when it comes to taking Liang Chuan's money.
Liang Chuan did not agree with this statement. He said with a straight face: "You don't owe me anything. Without you guys, I wouldn't be able to pull up such a large team, and I wouldn't be able to succeed like Liang Chuan, let alone be a leader." Keep the money you have earned over the years. Only what you have earned can only be earned by me. I, Liang Chuan, keep my word. If you have money, everyone must earn it together. If you don’t accept this money, others cannot accept it. You have to offend so many people. people? '
Song Tiegen was also angry and said: "I think they dare!" '
Liang Chuan stuffed the gold into Song's wife's hands. Song's wife's hands were rougher than Liang Chuan's. The cracks and cracks on them made people feel distressed. They were hard-working and hard-working hands.
'Here, this is an order. '
Song Tiegen sighed and wanted to continue to refute, but seeing Song's wife looking embarrassed, he had no choice but to agree.
This gold bar is enough for Song Tiegen to lay three generations of bricks on the northwest city wall, and now Liang Chuan will give it to him!
Behind Song Tiegen, countless people craned their necks in nervous anticipation. Although they also knew that the Liang family gave a little too much this time, who didn't know that Liang Chuan would do what he said! This money is nothing to the Liang family, but to them, it can make them comfortable and wealthy for decades to come!
Song Tiegen said it with great justice. Without this money, they would be so distressed that they would not be able to sleep!
'Come all! '
Liang Chuan gave the order, and with joy on their faces, the returning soldiers' wives handed the money to the Liang family, and then took away their own share of the money!
This time, Liang Chuan and Su Wei could clearly feel that everyone was more excited and joyful than during the Chinese New Year. Every household had hope on their faces, and everyone was excited!
When soldiers fought in the Song Dynasty, they had only one requirement, that is, as long as the money was in place, they would have unlimited fighting power. Without money, even if the King of Heaven came, they would not be able to do it.
But Liang Chuan and the others are an exception.
These people are miserable and don't even have enough to eat. Now that they have good food to eat and money to take, their fighting spirit has exploded!
Liang Zao slowly disembarked from the boat behind the crowd.
The ship sailed for several days and finally arrived at Penghu. He did not know where it was.
Liang Chuan saw Liang Zao among the crowd and came up to him with Ling Hu.
'Lao Liang has been looking forward to seeing you! '
Liang Zao sighed, turned his head to the side and said, "I, Liang Zao, have nothing in my sleeves now, and I dare not support myself here." '
Ling Hu shouted loudly: "What are you talking about? I said it back then. Now that traitors are in power and the court is full of smoke and smoke, there is no place for loyal people like us to stay for a long time. I also advised you to leave with me." Qingyuan, you must not listen. Look at me now. Are you happy now? '
Liang Zao was unhappy to begin with, and Song Jiang wanted to be his escort. If he hadn't been framed, who would have wanted to go to Liangshan? In this moment of urgency, he pounced on Ling Hu and started fighting with him. Everyone was dumbfounded. Liang Chuan separated the two of them and said, "You are Jin Lan brothers. Why are you here making people laugh?" '
Liang Zao blushed and said: "Brother is now in a state of desolation, and this guy is still here making sarcastic remarks. I am in a hurry, alas!" '
Ling Hu said heartlessly: "I am a gunsmith supervisor and you are a police officer. I don't feel sorry for you. What do you have to feel sorry for?" I can tell you, when you come to this island, you will find that your shipyard is a hundred times stronger! '
Liang Zao stared at Ling Hu fiercely without saying a word.
Liang Chuan invited Liang Zao to the meeting hall. The meeting hall was so large and majestic that it shocked Liang Zao.
He knew that Liang Chuan was not an ordinary person. The two brothers of the Gao family were now in very high official positions, and they also regarded Liang Chuan as their honored guests. Officials from all walks of life in Zhizhou did not dare to look down on Liang Chuan. This guy has a background, but he didn’t expect to do such big things overseas. .
'To be honest, Brother Liang, you have also seen it. Now the imperial court is controlled by traitors and they are doing some stupid policies. Shipping is the lifeblood of Qingyuan. There has never been such a ridiculous policy in thousands of years. Millions of people along the coast have no idea. born. We won’t go into detail about these words here, but Brother Liang, if the sea is banned, your shipyard’s business will definitely be over. Why doesn’t Brother Liang think about the future of his career? '
Liang Zao smiled bitterly.
There is no way out now.
Several supervisors are still squatting in their cells. They have copied so much money from their families, and they are all gone if they don't die. I'm afraid they will be targeted next, and whether their families will be implicated is another matter. .
Liang Zao's face was stinking worse than his mother's death, and he said: "There is no way out. The imperial court ransacked all of our homes without distinguishing between red and red. Now we are all in trouble. Whether we can go back in the future is still a question." '
'I am also a paradise here. I don't have to worry about food and clothing. Brother Liang, why don't you just stay on the island! '
Liang Zao glanced at Liang Chuan.
He didn't know if this matter had anything to do with Liang Chuan, but it must have been done by someone. He couldn't say it directly, but he felt resentful in his heart.
'It's good for me to be on the island, but my whole family is in Qingyuan. . '
Liang Chuan chuckled and said, "Brother, don't worry. I have made all arrangements. I have asked people to pick up my brother's family members. In two or three days at most, my brother and his family can be reunited on this island!" '
Liang Zao was still a little worried and tried his best to refuse: "I, Liang Zao, don't have any talents, let alone any skills. I'm afraid that I will drag everyone down on the island." '
Liang Chuan looked at him and said bluntly: "To be honest with you, brother, I will set up a shipyard by myself, and then Brother Liang will manage the factory for me. What do you think, brother?" '
Liang Zao was stunned for a moment, thinking he heard wrongly and said: "What did you say, you want to set up a shipyard yourself?" '
Liang Chuan smiled deeply and said: 'Exactly. '
