Chapter 78: Finally, 50,000

Zhu Dutou knew how to adapt better than Li Zhixian, a scholar. Seeing that Zheng Zhi directly said Xiao Zhong’s words, Xiao Zhong’s husband complained about his stupid words, he made sure that Zheng Zhi was really a stupid young man, which was in line with Zhu Dutou’s impression of the bravery of the Zong family army. Most of the brave people were wise.

Zhu Dutou hurriedly answered: "Xiao Zhong Gong can't help the general. Huayin County is really poor. It is a great joy to not take any action this time. The magistrate thought that he would spend less food and fodder without using his sword, so he said 5,000 guan. Since the general spoke, we should prepare more. Huayin County is too poor. If the whole county does its best, it may not be able to get 50,000 guan. Please ask the general to be able to be compatible."

Zhu Dutou was also very good at speaking. When he asked for a price all over the place, he naturally had to pay back the money. The skills of paying back the money were also very advanced. He said that he was trying his best to get it. As for how much he had collected, he had done his best in Huayin County. After saying this, Zhu Dutou also thought that Zheng Zhi should have nothing to say, so he couldn't let Huayin County write an IOU.

Zheng Zhi smiled in his heart, thinking, playing this with me. Then his expression changed, and he pretended to be stupid and said, "Since you have a certainty, then 50,000 yuan can't be lost. If you don't have a place to go back, Xiaozhong's husband will definitely blame him, thinking that he had greedy for food and salary, so he must have caught him and chopped his head on the stage."

When the three of Huayin heard Zheng Zhi say this, they were even more troubled. No matter what Zheng Zhi is barren or not, it turns out that Zheng Zhi has a life worry.

"Don't worry, General. Let's write another document to explain the situation with Xiao Zhong Gong, which can also prove the general's innocence." County Magistrate Li hurriedly came up with a solution.

Both Magistrate Li and Zhu Dutou are smart people, and their thinking and speech are very good. The two joined forces to deal with one Zheng Zhi, but Zheng Zhi was at ease.

"The official document is useless. At that time, my husband thought that it was a conspiracy with the magistrate to greed for food and money. It was inappropriate. The matters that my husband had to be handled properly, and he had to be properly handled. That day, my husband ordered someone to get a gift, and even if he died, he would have to get it. He would have to get it even if he had to do his job today, so he would have no face to go back." Zheng Zhi was very talented in acting.

If you talk too much about the truth, you will suffer a loss. If you are stupid, you will naturally be unable to decide a dead end.

Magistrate Li didn't know what Zheng Zhi was saying, so Zhu and Wu both knew it. When they heard this, they felt that the pressure increased.

"General, let me go and get together. I see how much I can get together." Zhu Dutou said helplessly. He should slow down first and discuss and decide with the magistrate.

Zheng Zhi had already laughed in his heart. After acting, he was really fun and had endless fun fighting with others. This is true.

After bowing, Zheng Zhi and a few of them turned around and left the county government. He didn't eat the banquet, so he only left the three of them to discuss in the hall.

"Brother, it's these two that have ruined my village." Shi Jin endured this for a long time, and as soon as he left the county government gate, he said it.

"Hmph... I'll break Dalang's village and let them take the money to make up for it first." Zheng Zhi replied.

In this era, there was no public money in the yamen. After paying what should be paid, the rest were the private assets of the chief official. Three years of Qing magistrate, 100,000 snowflakes. This is the reason. If you have to raise 50,000 yuan, naturally these people have to pay the money. Even if you build bridges and pave roads, you have to withhold the taxes you should pay.

If it were all public funds, 5,000 or 50,000 yuan, what is the difference for them? The prosperity of the Song Dynasty was really not comparable to that of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

"Hehe... Brother is right, brother is really amazing. I don't know if they can get the 50,000 guan." Shi Jin seemed to have a lot of psychological balance. 50,000 guan was really a sky-high price. If he really took it out, he would probably be a rank for several years in vain.

"It's not that simple if they give 50,000 jin of food and salary, and there's still some entanglement." Zheng Zhi said this, but there was no pressure, but instead showed some confidence.

On the street at the county yamenkou, the tents were neatly rehearsed, and the horses gathered in one place. The wine and food were also coming, and the horses were also eating the ingredients.

The three people in the county yamen discussed it. Zhu Dutou and his men brought several large boxes containing 20,000 taels of silver, and came to talk to Zheng Zhi again.

After all, Huayin County was poor and the entire yamen was filled with money.

Zheng Zhi insisted on going back to catch the beheaded, but did not collect the 20,000 ounces, so he sent someone to carry the big box into the yamen.

Both of them could only smile bitterly, but they did not dare to offend Zheng Zhi. They believed that Zheng Zhi was in their hearts and knew that Zheng Zhi was brave and had to say something nice to avoid Zheng Zhi getting angry.

One night passed, and early the next morning, Zheng Zhi called his subordinate Xiang Jundu.

"This early morning, the horses were full last night, so they all had to excrete now, right?" Zheng Zhi asked.

"Well... it's such an hour..." This was shocked. In the morning, Zheng Zhi ordered his personal soldiers to call him, and asked about the horses' excretion, which made him confused.

"Pull the horses to the yamen gate." Zheng Zhi laughed after saying this.

Then the people around him laughed, as if they understood Zheng Zhi's meaning. Xiang Jun turned around and went to pull the horse, feeling happy in his heart, and knew that the magistrate in front of him was not allowed to enter the city.

"Brother is such a good method." Shi Jin praised with a smile.

"Brother, Sajia thinks it's better to pull the horse into the yamen." Lu Da also laughed. It's not that Lu Da was joking, but that's what he really thought.

Of course, Zheng Zhi took Luda's words as a joke. It was impossible for him to really pull the horses to the county munition for excretion, and everyone laughed even more.

It wasn't long before Zhu Dutou came out with another 30,000 yuan. Zheng Zhi got angry this time. He took Luda's big knife and danced in front of Zhu Dutou, saying that the magistrate was cheating on him and wanted to harm his life. He also had to take a cushion before he died.

Everyone around suppressed their laughter and stopped Zheng Zhi, and finally persuaded him to stop Zheng Zhi.

Zhu Du looked at Zheng Zhi who was dancing with a knife and hurriedly hid far away, fearing that Zheng Zhi would kill him with one knife before killing the magistrate. He quickly brought his men to move the box back.

At noon, Zheng Zhi led everyone to the county government office again, and they had to eat, drink, and wine, so they naturally had to be satisfied.

When the sun rose at noon, the county yamen was even smelly and even Zheng Zhi was hiding far away. The officials in the yamen had to enter and exit through the back door and sent people to clean the horse manure at the door. After cleaning it, it was full again.

Zhu Dutou vividly talked about Zheng Zhi's murder, and both of them talked about who Zheng Zhi was and what he did.

When Li Zhixian heard this, his face turned pale. He drank a few cups of salt tea, asked his servants to prepare a banquet, and sent someone to invite Zheng Zhi to the banquet in the evening. However, Li Zhixian was still unwilling to give the 50,000 yuan of food and salary.

Even if he apologized to Zheng Zhi at the banquet, he was unwilling to pay the 50,000 guan of food and salary. 30,000 guan was the limit. Even if it was 30,000 guan, Magistrate Li felt extremely painful in his heart.

However, Li Zhixian was preparing to apologize and admit his mistakes. Zheng Zhi ignored it at all and still refused to eat the banquet. He was angry and wanted to kill people. He chased Zhu Dutou until the county government office before being stopped by everyone.

From then on, the county government gate was closed, and Li Magistrate also went out of the back door to avoid disaster.

Looking back, Zheng Zhi was really impatient. He had really lost face in acting like this. He planned to go to the magistrate to show off his mind early the next morning, but he didn't expect that magistrate Li was so fond of money and life.

Li Zhixian hid in a villa, still thinking about how to solve it. Weizhou obviously couldn't solve it. It was time to go to Huazhou Prefecture. It took four or five days to go. How could the Huazhou Prefecture Office dare to mess with the husband of the Zong family?

Huayin County is under the jurisdiction of Huazhou. When the Huazhou Martial Arts Envoy saw the old husband of Yan'an Prefecture, he would definitely not dare to say a single fart. When the two states Martial Arts Envoys were young, he would be inferior. If the Huazhou Martial Arts Envoy was the most important person, he would not have to go to Weizhou to invite troops to suppress bandits.

Zheng Zhi asked for 50,000 yuan. In Li Zhixian's opinion, it must be the meaning of Xiao Zhong's husband. Zheng Zhi's words meant something. Although it was a naked blackmail, it was called Li Zhixian. If he really fought a war, he was a little bit balanced, but he didn't touch a single person and a knife. He really couldn't overcome this hurdle in his heart.

After thinking about it, Magistrate Li didn't have a way to achieve the best of both worlds. He called both of them again in the middle of the night. After thinking about it, the three of them discussed and discussed it overnight. The white white fish in the east was slowly revealed.

Early the next morning, the yamen was opened, and Magistrate Li came out with 50,000 taels of silver. Magistrate Li gave a big fortune, and both of them paid a lot of money.

Zheng Zhi didn't expect that he was going to find County Magistrate Li early in the morning. After collecting the silver, Zheng Zhi still got angry and scolded County Magistrate Li for not being a son. Although he was rich, he was unwilling to give it out and insisted on killing his life.

Li Zhixian explained that he had borrowed it from a wealthy family in the city overnight. He also told Zheng Zhi not to spread it too much. He was also afraid that Zheng Zhi would spread it everywhere and spread it to his Shangguan. Li Zhixian was afraid that he would have to take another sin. A magistrate could take out 50,000 taels of silver. How should he think as the prefect Shangguan? This magistrate was afraid that he would not be able to do it steadily. Recommended basic history novels are all good new books, which should be the last large-scale recommendation. It was really hard to queue up. It was recommended in one go: 1629 of the Ming Dynasty, the first scholar of the Ming Dynasty, the top scholar in the Kung Fu, the Fenghua Road of the Tang Dynasty, the soul of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the best sales, and the confusion of the Red Mansion. The books are all good, each with their own taste, you can try it.
