NOVEL NEXT Emperor Ming Dynasty
Chapter 72 Silver
Chapter 72 Silver
The next day, early in the morning, the second group of people had already made preparations.
Including the Prince Qin's Mansion, the royal clans of various counties, and wealthy households, there are as many as three or four hundred households, and the carriage stretches for more than ten miles.
As for the clan, Zhu Yixi knew that once Li Zicheng came, he would be tortured, and for the sake of the same clan, he had to forgive him.
But why did other wealthy households in Xi'an also follow?
Faced with doubts, Zhang Daoku smiled and said:
"The ones who have not retreated in the city today are small merchants with insufficient power. The big merchants and high officials are all working hard and ready to welcome King Chuang!"
"Because of this, all the mules and horses in the city have been raided, and they will definitely not delay the journey."
"So?" Zhu Yixi still asked.
"Hey!" Zhang Daoku had no choice but to drag Zhu Yixi to a secluded place, tilted his head and said softly:
"One, these people all have small fortunes. In order to escape for their lives, each person pays at least three to five hundred taels to as many as one thousand taels. The poor Taoist has already raised 500 taels of silver for you as military salary."
"Secondly, they can be regarded as the sages of the village, and they are also your friends from the village. After going to Hanzhong, they are isolated and helpless, so they can only take shelter from you, which can be regarded as a great help."
"At the very least, these are still loyal to Daming."
"In the past, when Uncle Liu went to Sichuan, didn't he also bring those people from Jingzhou with him?"
"Kneel to welcome the new dynasty? They think that any court treats gentry like Daming?"
Zhu Yixi sneered and said ironically.
However, 10 taels is enough to support soldiers for several months.
Immediately, Zhu Yixi looked at the old Taoist up and down again, and couldn't help but click his tongue:
"If it weren't for the fact that they are all horse-drawn carriages and their speed is not bad, I would have thrown them away long ago. However, what you said sounds reasonable to me."
"That's right!" Zhang Daoku twirled his beard and said triumphantly, "Poverty Dao is the descendant of the Zhang family in Longhushan, who has read thousands of volumes..."
"Don't be so talkative!" Zhu Yixi didn't like this, leaned her body quickly, stared into his eyes, and asked forcefully:
"Say, how much benefit did you get?"
"This..." Zhang Daoku was dumb for a moment, his eyes dodged: "The poor, the poor, helping the world and saving people, how can you use such vulgar words, I don't know what it means to gain something!"
As he spoke, he waved his sleeves, wanting to take a step ahead.
"Zhang Daochang, those who know the current affairs are the heroes!"
Zhu Yixi pulled his sleeve, put it close to his ear, and said coldly: "The big knife on my waist doesn't have eyes."
"Hey, see what you said." Zhang Daoku turned his head and smiled apologetically, "Pindao only charged 5000 taels..."
"Ten taels?"
Zhu Yixi was quite surprised, and then sneered: "In my army, any corruption is eliminated. This is the first time. Next time, I will never spare you."
"Keep 500 taels and hand in the rest."
"But, Zhu Guerzilla, I haven't joined your army yet!"
Zhang Daoku was dumbfounded, and said in a hurry.
"Really? From today onwards, you will be the military advisor of this army, and someone will issue you a token later."
Zhu Yixi seemed to have seen something, and walked away without looking back, but the voice fell in his ears, and Zhang Daoku seemed to be in mourning.
I saw that not far away, the convoy of Prince Qin's Mansion, there were more than a hundred vehicles, oppressing the ground and almost sinking.
"Zhu Guerrilla." At this time, Zhang Shijiong, the long history, instantly changed his temper, and said respectfully, "What's the matter with you?"
"Why are there so many carriages and horses? Loading so many things?"
Zhu Yixi asked in a deep voice.
"A few possessions."
Before Zhang Shijiong could speak, Zhu Cunji in the carriage couldn't help sticking his head out, and said loudly: "These are the accumulations of our Qin Palace for hundreds of years, so we can't let them go easily."
"Really?" Zhu Yixi said with a smile: "Then I said, it must be reduced by [-]%?"
"No, absolutely not."
Zhu Cunji shook his head like a rattle, hurriedly raised his chin, and said coldly: "Zhu Yixi, I am the great suzerain of Qin Fan, if I say no, I won't."
"Really?" Zhu Yixi sneered, approached the arrogant little King Qin, and slapped him twice without saying a word.
"Clap--"
"You, what are you doing?"
Zhu Cunji blushed and was dumbfounded, and everyone present was dumbfounded.
I am King Qin, he is a lieutenant, how dare he hit me?
"You wait, Zhu Yixi, I will expel you from your clan, I will report to the Holy Majesty, demote you from office, and send you to prison—"
King Qin cursed furiously, filled with grievances, which cannot be washed away no matter what.
"King Qin?" The guards who dared to step forward were all blocked, and Zhu Yixi became more courageous.
He grabbed King Qin's skirt, lowered his head, looked coldly into his eyes, and said sharply:
"Now, anyone must listen to my command, otherwise, they will be killed."
"As for whether you are the King of Qin or not, it doesn't matter. It's a big deal. In the end, it will be on the intruder. Who will avenge you?"
After finishing speaking, looking at the dumbfounded King Qin, Zhu Yixi smiled, straightened his clothes, and said:
"King Qin has already agreed, you guys leave now, remember, it's [-]%."
Regardless of everyone's stunned gazes, Zhu Yixi left gracefully, making people feel like a spring breeze.
"Your Highness?" Zhang Shijiong couldn't help asking, looking at the somewhat silly King Qin.
"Do as he says."
It took Zhu Cunji a while to react, and he said tremblingly, "Choose the expensive ones."
"Yes!"
On the other side, after witnessing Zhu Yixi's power, the clan, wealthy businessmen, and gentry all lowered their eyebrows and were pleasing to the eye, so well-behaved.
No matter when, killing chickens and monkeys works.
Soon, the entire team began to lose weight, from more than [-] vehicles to only [-] in the end.
Seeing this, Zhu Yixi nodded. At the speed of mules and horses, at most four or five days, they will reach Dashan Pass.
At Chenshi, accompanied by two thousand musket battalions, one thousand mine army, two thousand elite defeated army, and five thousand soldiers and horses combined, they officially set off.
The other [-] mine troops and [-] defeated troops, under the leadership of Zhu Meng, set off yesterday as pioneers.
Therefore, their 5000 people are considered to be cut off.
However, Zhu Yixi also came prepared.
In the craftsman camp, there are still nearly two hundred cannons of various colors. Although they are not as good as the red cannons, their melee power cannot be underestimated.
Due to the huge size of the team, even if they turned into mules and horses, they only traveled fifty miles in one day.
Haven't arrived in Xianyang yet.
"According to this speed, it will take at least six or seven days."
Zhu Yixi regretted it a little.
However, in a blink of an eye, Zhang Shijiong suddenly sent 50 taels of silver.
"This?"
Zhu Yixi was puzzled.
"There are fewer carriages, so I can't hold it anymore. King Qin was frightened by you. After I persuade you, I will give it to you as escort fee."
"In addition, the King of Qin said that there is no need to pay back those few stones of grain..."
Zhang Shijiong laughed softly: "The King of Qin has no other request, but just wants you to show him some respect in front of outsiders in the future."
Calculated based on 16 taels a catty, 50 taels is [-] catties, and at least [-] carriages are needed.
"Ok?"
Zhu Yixi frowned, and said in surprise: "The Qin Palace has accumulated for hundreds of years, and a hundred horse-drawn carriages can't be transported away!"
Too bad, I took the initiative to deliver it to my door, I will be a little bit hard to do it in the future!
Zhang Shijiong shook his head and said: "Naturally, a lot of gold and silver have been buried, and His Highness is still waiting to dig them out in the future. For this trip, he only brought a million taels."
Survival is more important than anything else, Zhang Shijiong betrayed King Qin without hesitation, and reported the buried address.
"Enough." Zhu Yixi smiled and said, "I'll take the other things in the future!"
Suddenly, his smile froze.
I saw a ray of beacon smoke floating in the distant sky.
