Feng Yibo has been operating for several years and has a small amount of assets, but the total assets are not as much as one of these cars.

"This matter is a bit troublesome. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to swallow it."

After pondering for a moment, Feng Yibo announced loudly:

"Don't touch these things for now. Go back to the accounting room and you can get one hundred taels of silver each."

"yes!"

Although according to the rules, they could only respond, the joy in the eyes of the villagers could not be hidden.

In this day and age, twenty or thirty taels of silver are enough for an ordinary family to live for a year.

One hundred taels, if used sparingly, would be enough for a family of five to eat and drink for five years.

What's more, Feng Yibo helps them make money every year.

The total expenditure of more than 20,000 taels was almost Zhuangzi's total income in two or three years.

Feng Yibo is not a white lotus either.

In the past few years, he has taken care of more than one family in Zhuangzi, and brought the rest of them to make a fortune together.

Because of this combination of kindness and power, people in Zhuangzi respected and feared him.

But Feng Yibo also understands human nature.

Even if I am afraid of you on weekdays, if there are too many interests involved, I will inevitably have other thoughts.

It doesn't mean that it will do anything to him, but if you don't leave any oil on your hands, it will inevitably make people feel unwilling.

Even if a few complaints are heard, it will be troublesome.

Besides, even if these villagers are considered his cronies, if there is no binding interest, there is no guarantee that they will not have other thoughts in the future.

That's why he chose to shed some blood.

"You know how I am, I will give you exactly what I should give you, and I will take what I shouldn't take. If anyone touches me, I will make it impossible for his whole family to survive. If I try to harm everyone, I will definitely make his life worse than death."

After giving you enough benefits, you still have to hammer and hammer.

The rules of the Feng Mansion are based on what is said and done time and time again.

Feng Yibo glanced at Zhuang Ding and saw that no one showed any dissatisfaction, then he said softly:

"This property is not clean and can easily cause fire. Even I can't say I can swallow it."

He was the one who promoted people and led them to live a good life.

In the eyes of these villagers, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a star in the sky.

Speaking of which, even Zhuang Ding, who had some lively thoughts, stopped thinking about what he shouldn't have at this time.

"Have someone carry the things in through the back door, and you two will follow them yourself."

After some kindness and power, Feng Yibo waved his hand.

In any case, let people transport these back to Feng Mansion first.

Gouzi and Mengzi led people to escort the vehicle towards the back door of Feng Mansion, and the remaining people chopped off the heads of the dead Japanese pirates under his orders.

He personally led the prisoners to the main entrance of Feng Mansion, and then ordered people to enter the manor.

After a while, Liu Zhao was carried out.

What no one noticed was that Xue Pan came out with him.

After coming out of Jinling, Xue Pan naturally knew the news about the Japanese pirates.

I also learned from Baochai that the Japanese pirates were coming to Fengjiazhuang.

When the two facts were confirmed, he was shocked.

I want to take Baochai back to Jinling immediately.

With the influence of the Xue family, as long as they get outside Jinling City, they can find a way to get in.

It's a pity that Jinling is easy to enter, but Feng Mansion is difficult to get out of.

The Japanese pirates are approaching, and the Feng Mansion immediately enters an emergency state of tightening externally and loosening internally.

The house looked as usual, but all exits had Zhuang Ding's handles, and entry and exit were prohibited.

After many unsuccessful attempts, Xue Pan could only return to the small courtyard where Baochai was in despair.

As soon as he opened the courtyard door, he heard some movement in the small courtyard next door.

Xue Pan took a look with some curiosity, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

I saw the door of the courtyard next door open, and several villagers carried out a man.

Xue Pan saw the crimson official robe at a glance.

The man was lying on his back, with the bear embroidered on his chest exposed.

A fifth-grade general!

That's right, the small courtyard where Baochai is located is the Xikua courtyard, and the entire area here is occupied by guest rooms.

That courtyard was where Liu Zhao, a member of the Qianhu family in the capital camp, rested.

Xue Pan was so anxious that he became wise for once.

He didn't step forward directly.

The general's leg was still splinted, and the person carrying him was not a soldier, but Zhuang Ding.

It was precisely because of Zhuang Ding that Xue Pan did not dare to step forward.

But seeing them walking out, Xue Pan immediately followed them.

The group came to the corner gate, but there was no one in the concierge.

They stood at the door, their attention focused on the door.

Xue Pan gritted his teeth and followed him out.

Liu Zhao was stunned as soon as he was carried out.

He sat up immediately and almost fell to the ground.

Did Mr. Feng really have a fight with Japanese pirates?

If he read it correctly, the prisoners held by the villagers at the door were there.

It's a Japanese pirate!

But he brought a thousand soldiers and all the officers and soldiers were defeated.

How much price did Fengjiazhuang have to pay to catch a few living Japanese pirates?

Although there were not many prisoners, there were definitely many.

Seeing that there were more than a dozen people, it at least meant that they had won!

"General Liu, all the Japanese pirates have been wiped out. These can still leave. I'll have the heads of the rest taken over and can send them over later."

Feng Yibo smiled and stepped forward to salute.

His attention was also on Liu Zhao, and he didn't notice that Xue Pan was following him.

Seeing that Liu Zhao was confused and had not yet reacted, Feng Yibo couldn't help but continue to pretend.

"Oh, by the way, you judge merit based on the head, right?"

Seeing that he was still looking at the Japanese prisoner blankly, Feng Yibo called out again: "General Liu?"

"ah?"

Only then did Liu Zhao come back to his senses, his face full of disbelief.

"Total...total destruction?"

When he thought about it, Fengjiazhuang must have paid a heavy price if he wanted to wipe out all the Japanese pirates.

It’s incredible how many thousands of people worked so hard!

Thinking of this, he immediately asked with a sad face: "So what are your losses?"

This is how to be a human being.

He has already realized that this is a wasted effort!

Even when all the Japanese pirates were wiped out in Fengjiazhuang, they were helped by righteous people when they reported to the court.

At most, it's just a reward from the court.

But military merit will only fall to those who "participated" in the battle or even "commanded" well.

He has thousands of households in the capital!

It is precisely for this reason that Liu Zhao asked this question.

He wanted to negotiate terms with Feng Yibo in advance, after all, he had been informed clearly before.

It was said that it was a reward for his achievements, but Liu Zhao had also been in officialdom for a long time and naturally understood the rules.

Especially these scholars are the most greedy.

However, he really couldn't refuse this credit.

No matter what the other party wants, he will cooperate fully!

Because of this contribution, not only can the position of Qianhu be saved.

It's not impossible to even move up.

This group of Japanese pirates robbed several mansions in the south of the Yangtze River, and the news had already reached heaven.

It just keeps appearing and disappearing, and no one can eradicate it.

The court never dealt with it.

Now that the Japanese pirates have been completely wiped out, there must be a lot of vacant positions.

Behind him, the commander of the Nanjing Camp has reached the top.

Even if there is no seal, most of the rewards are probably gifts from the emperor.

And if Liu Zhao operates properly, it is not impossible for him to command the fourth rank.

While Liu Zhao was calculating in his mind, Feng Yibo's understatement made him frown.

"We were familiar with the terrain and set traps. The Japanese pirates fell into our ambush, so we didn't lose much."

This is absolutely impossible!

Liu Zhao confirmed again: "There is really no loss?"

"Uh-huh……"

Seeing that Feng Yibo seemed hesitant, Liu Zhao felt a little disdainful.

These scholars know how to brag.

How could there be no loss?

Sure enough, this Jie Yuan pondered for a moment and then said: "If you insist on saying it... I have it."

This is right!

Liu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, but felt a little contemptuous in his heart.

It seems that Fengjiazhuang must have suffered a lot of losses, but this Jie Yuan does not take human life seriously.

Unexpectedly, what Feng Yibo said next made him even more stunned.

"A villager failed to hold his shield and broke his little toe."
