Chapter 40: Zhu Qinghai (continued)
This is simply a great contribution that fell from heaven for nothing. If these flower-picking thieves were beaten up in one go, whether in the officialdom or in the world, Bai Yunhang's name would probably be known to everyone, and there might be a hero who promised him.
But Bai Yunhang pretended not to believe it: "Sun Yuyu, you are so bold. You dare to deceive me with false words! Go down and prepare to be executed!"
Two men immediately put Sun Yuyu down. Sun Yuyu struggled and shouted, "Sir, please spare me! Sir, please spare me! Everything the villain said is true!"
Several public officials expressed their confusion, and Xiang Chenyue asked softly: "Sir! This matter is probably not fake, why don't you make good use of it..."
Bai Yunhang smiled but did not answer, and Zhang Yilong interrupted, "Sir, are you planning to let this kid suffer a little first... In this way, you can control this flower-picking thief to obey!"
Bai Yunhang only said one sentence: "Zhang Dianshi, please ask your brother to give him more meals and must not be hungry. After the New Year, I will still interrogate carefully... Humph, if you don't cooperate at that time, let's just invite Mrs. Shi over!"
He had something to say, and he was just eating more "prison rice". Zhang Yilong quickly responded: "Sir, villain understands! Mrs. Shi's stick is so amazing!"
Zhang Yilong was naturally ready to serve him well. Bai Yunhang was about to say a few more words, but he saw Li Yushuang and Guo Xuefei walking over quickly like a brow, and they were all a little disgraceful. When he saw Bai Yunhang gesture, he didn't know what big thing happened to Bai Yunhang, so he said, "Let's talk about this first... If it's not an urgent matter, don't look for me!"
The second female Li Guo, one of them held Bai Yunhang's hand and rushed back to the room. As soon as she closed the door, Li Yushuang said anxiously: "My seventh uncle is coming to Dengfeng..."
"Uncle Seventh Master?" Bai Yunhang heard the two girls say that the Emei Sect was in great popularity, and the previous masters in the sect were only one Uncle Seventh Master. The Uncle Seventh Master was very skilled in martial arts, far from comparable to the two women Li Guo. He immediately smiled and said, "If Uncle Seventh Master comes, let's treat you well! I'll find a way to get a hundred and eighty silver!"
Guo Xuefei gave him a blank look and said with some pain: "Why don't you know... Uncle Seventh Master has a high martial arts skills, but he is very rigid... If our affairs are known to Uncle Seventh Master, it will be broken..."
Bai Yunhang was not afraid: "What era is now... We are all old husbands and wives. The parents' orders and matchmakers' words cannot ruin our good things, let alone a seventh uncle. Don't worry! Even if I fight for my life, I will not be separated from you!"
When Guo Xuefei heard what he said, she felt a little happy, and shook her jade head gently and said, "The difficulty is here! Uncle Seventh Master has always been good to us. We cannot deal with her. We have to discuss a good solution!"
Bai Yunhang nodded: "Oh... this is also a difficult situation. I have no relatives. Your Seventh Master is considered my elder. Let's do this... I'll get you four hundred taels of silver. If the uncle likes something, I'll buy some for her to make her happy! It's really a mess! It's time to be busy now!"
Where did the four hundred taels of silver be obtained? The group of Shaolin disciples captured from Baihualou made a lot of money. County Magistrate Bai took 400 taels from it and did not make the account. Anyway, in Dengfeng Yamen, the big and small matters were decided by the Bai County Magistrate Bai himself. Only he knew how much money there was in the yamen.
In addition to the cash, there are also a lot of IOUs. I immediately found the Zhendao monk. As soon as he met, he said respectfully: "Mr. Bai! Is there any money to take care of me? I also want to have a good New Year!"
Bai Yunhang showed him an IOU, and Zhen Daohe immediately cheered: "Sir... it's still the old way. It's better to use the money for counting interest..."
Bai Yunhang smiled and said, "Everyone gets rich, everyone gets rich... Don't patronize you alone. Master Jingchen and other Taoist monks in Shaolin Temple should take care of them more..."
I really understand what he meant: "Sir! Just don't worry! You asked us for the military funds you raised yesterday and will be delivered to you this afternoon..."
Since the magistrate of Bai County took two commanders to Shaolin Temple, Shaolin Temple responded to the request of Bai County Magistrate. There was even a small joke in the Dengfeng Yamen saying: "Commander Lin came to ask the county magistrate for military supplies. First, he said: 'Brother Bai... The military rations in the camp are about to be finished, please ask Brother Bai to transfer me 80 stones of food...' The county magistrate smiled and said: 'Of course!' Commander Lin said again: 'Brother Bai, my brothers in the army still want to eat some fine grains. Can you get dozens of bags of white flour?' The county magistrate also agreed: '
This matter is for me!’ Finally, Commander Lin hesitated for a moment before saying, ‘Brother Bai, I am really embarrassed to speak, it is also our own private matter! We have always been alone in the wind and dining and drinking outside. We are a man who works hard in blood and fire. We take care of everything by ourselves! Unexpectedly, our military uniforms have been torn recently, and we can’t find an embroidery needle to sew. Can Brother Bai get an embroidery needle for us…’ As a result, the county magistrate was in trouble. He hesitated for a long time before saying, ‘There are probably no embroidery needles in Shaolin Temple…’”
However, the abbot of Qingchao also welcomed the levy of County Magistrate Bai. The levy of County Magistrate Bai wanted to collect 100 stones of grain, so he notified the eighteen gates of Shaolin Temple that each gate would pay ten stones of grain, and he also purified eighty stones of grain. The more he had a levy, the more wealth the temple would make.
Of course, the clear tide will not extinguish the lake. After plundering the small treasuries of each junta, it turned to the temples, nunnies and Taoist temples in Kaifeng and Luoyang.
Each dynasty set up monk associations in Shaolin Temple, which was in charge of the temples in Dengfeng County. Now, with the reputation of General Yu Xiao, he forced his stake in temples and temples in Kaifeng and Luoyang.
The reputation of General Yu Xiao and the handwritten letter from the Bai County Magistrate. Although it was not on the Dengfeng ground, the bold temples and Taoist temples became honest. Shaolin Temple became famous everywhere. Even the Sandalwood Sect and the Thai Western Sect were forced to pay a large sum of money, and in the end, even the underworld had to pay.
Of course, the abbot of Qingchao could not do the work for the Bai County Magistrate. He always had to charge some labor fees. The Shaolin Temple staff also charged a little bit when handing over to the Bai County Magistrate. Bai County Magistrate went in and out in big fights. Although he did not let the army be hungry, he would never suffer any loss.
However, this way of making money together suddenly paused for a few days. Abbot Qingchao was very curious about this and specially sent Master Jingchen to inquire about the news, hoping to restore such a good time as soon as possible. After half a day, Master Jingchen returned: "Mr. Bai is not in the county town, and it seems that he is going out to train with General Yu Xiao's officers and soldiers."
