Chapter 23 Protection Fee

The army sent by Zhang Ming went smoothly in looting.

However, because Wuhuan had raided them before, many rich people hid their belongings or moved them to the city.

Zhuzhu came back after going out for a few days, and the soldiers were all carrying a lot of property on their horses.

Zhang Ming was very happy and asked someone to count them immediately.

After this counting, it is also worth 10,000+ copper coins.

Having money is a good thing, and it can equip the army.

"Instructor, this Zhuangzi will be ours from now on." Zhuzi drooled as he looked at this Zhuangzi. He was born at the bottom, and it would be nice to have a dilapidated house in his family. He has never seen such a nice house.

"Promise." Zhang Ming scorned, and then said: "Go and clean up Zhuangzi, it will be my temporary residence in the future."

Zhu Zi quickly took someone to clean up, and a group of elders finally cleaned up Zhuangzi.

Zhang Ming went to his room and saw a lot of ancient furniture.

"Move all these things to another place, just leave the bed and the table."

Zhang Ming didn't like these things. After the people left, he moved many guys out of the system space.

"The ones that sleep must be Simmons, and they are all made of pure cotton."

"The tea set is a boutique in Jingdezhen."

"There must be high-quality tea and wine in the cabinet."

"The cigarettes have to be put on display."

Zhang Ming began to arrange his own room, of course in a luxurious way.

"There is no sofa, why don't you drop the sofa?"

"Should I go to kill monsters, kill some bandits, and blow up some sofas?"

After setting up the room, there are many things, but there is no sofa. Zhang Ming always feels that something is missing.

There is no sofa without a sofa. Zhang Ming arranged his room very delicately, and a lot of modern things appeared in this small room.

At this time, in the area around Xiangping City, those landlords and aristocratic families complained, and their villages were all looted.

There was not much loss in property, but the land outside the city and some food that had not been confiscated were all in the hands of these bandits.

These people are very anxious, land and food are their weapons, and now all these are occupied by Zhang Ming.

Two days later, Zhang Ming's army came back again, looting a lot of things this time.

The army began to gather here for training.

Zhang Ming called Zhuzi in.

When Zhu Zi entered Zhang Ming's room, he was stunned.

"Instructor, you still have that taste. The things here belong to noble people." Zhu Zi said.

Zhang Ming was making tea and gave Zhuzi a cup too.

"It's so fragrant and delicious." Zhu Zi took a sip and praised.

Zhang Ming wondered if he really understood tea.

Zhang Ming drank a few sips himself, and then said: "Go immediately and send a message to the landlords of the aristocratic families in the city. We bought all the land outside the city and asked them to send someone to deliver it."

Zhu Zi suddenly became anxious.

"Instructor, what to buy? It's not all in our hands now, it's all ours."

Zhang Ming glared at him and said, "I'm not going to be a bandit all my life. In a few days, we'll be officers and soldiers."

Zhuzi didn't understand why Zhang Ming wanted to buy these lands, but Zhang Ming gave the order, so he could only execute it.

The news spread quickly, and within two days, everyone around knew about it.

In particular, there are the most wealthy people in Xiangping City, and they were the first to be notified.

Mr. Xu, when he received the notice, his hands trembled.

"Thieves, when my master Wang arrives, I will kill you all."

After Xu Chao found out, he yelled.

This is his lifeblood. There are many lands outside the city, and they are all occupied now.

But Xu Chao didn't want to compromise, it was just losing the food in the field, and when the officers and soldiers arrived, all his land would be returned.

A few days passed, and no one came to sell the land.

Zhuzi secretly laughed at Zhang Ming.

"The instructor just loves to do these things. He robbed them all, so what else can they buy?"

Although no one sold it, Zhang Ming continued to send people to spread the news, at least to let the whole Liaodong know.

Nowadays, there are not many soldiers and horses in the entire Liaodong, and they dare not even go out of the city.

Although no one went out of the city to sell land, some people came to pay premiums.

"Instructor, there is a man named Luo Quan in the next county who wants to pay the protection fee." Zhuzi came to Zhang Ming again and said.

"Pay the protection fee? Did you say anything?"

"The other party wanted to transport some goods, but they were afraid of being robbed by us, so they wanted to pay protection fees, and they sent a person."

Zhang Ming nodded, this is also a way of making money.

"I'll put on some makeup, and you'll bring me in 10 minutes."

After all, he is going to be the prefect, and it is not good to be a bandit in public, so Zhang Ming plans to put on some make-up.

Soon, he was doing his own makeup, adding a beard, a cyclops, and a baseball cap.

This baseball cap is naturally a monster hit.

"Instructor, someone is here."

Zhu Zi was also startled when he saw Zhang Ming, but the instructor had such a big cigarette dangling from his mouth, it was very impressive.

Zhang Ming did light a cigar for himself and smoked it, very much like a boss.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please greet me, my little one."

The visitor was completely dumbfounded when he saw Zhang Ming, the bandit looked so powerful.

"This is a great gift from our Patriarch."

The other party sent a gift box, Zhang Ming opened it directly and saw that there were pottery inside.

"Pillar, take it down and use it." Zhang Ming pushed the gift box aside.

The face of the visitor changed, and the gift giver was not satisfied, which made it difficult to handle.

Zhang Ming started to make tea for himself. That guy was all exquisite porcelain with exquisite patterns on it.

Immediately, the visitor understood that what he used was all high-end products, and the things he gave were simply unattractive.

"It's okay to deliver the goods. We have done nothing wrong, but we must pay 5.00% of the price." Zhang Ming began to ask the price while drinking tea.

The visitor was pleasantly surprised. When he came before, the Patriarch gave him a target of 5.00%, but the bandits in Erlong Mountain only had [-]%.

"Also, don't hide the value of the goods. Our Erlongshan will not look down on your little things. If you dare to lie, the consequences will be serious. In the territory of Liaodong, there is nothing like Erlongshan that I dare not touch."

Zhang Ming even dared to enter Xiangping City, there is really no one who would not dare to move.

The other party nodded quickly and went back.

This Luo Quan is definitely a smart person. Liaodong has just experienced two disasters, one is the invasion of the Wuhuan people, and the other is of course Zhang Ming's bandit rampage.

Now all counties are closed to business, if he can transport goods around at this time, he will definitely make a lot of money.

However, Zhang Ming also wants to see how big the other party's structure is. If the other party can abide by the agreement, Zhang Ming doesn't mind supporting him. If the other party's structure is too small, then he will be pressed to death.

Today, although Zhang Ming's military strength is small, his deterrent power is great, and he controls many major places.
