Chapter 92 Isn't 30 in vain?

There must be some, haven't you seen the shocking blood stains on the ground?

Zhang Sheng is like this, what can the Shaozhou gentry do?

If a person is trapped to death and can keep his money and food, maybe some of the gentry will persist.

But after Nima was pinched to death, Zhang Sheng's family property was directly confiscated. What a waste of persistence!
Zhang Sheng showed a kind smile when he heard the words, and stared at the Shaozhou gentry non-stop.

The scalps of these gentlemen all went numb when they saw it.

"Come here, drag the fat pig down to cook. Today I want to get drunk with the sages of Shaozhou!"

Zhang Sheng changed from his normal state and looked at the Shaozhou gentry as if he were looking at his own family.

In fact, this is not difficult to understand. After all, Zhang Sheng was naturally overjoyed after spending more than 100 million.

After all, 50 taels of silver was enough for Shang Kexi's soldiers to break out of Zhaoqing without fear of barbarians and seize the tunnel entrance of Li Dingguo's army.

In later generations, twenty oceans could make Sichuan soldiers risk their lives. They fought hand-to-hand with the Red Army at Baizhang Pass and won the battle.

If you spend more than 100 million, you will have to risk the lives of [-] Sichuan soldiers!
Although Zhang Sheng's status is much higher than that of ordinary soldiers, his attitude towards the Shaozhou gentry has also changed greatly.

"Master Hou, no need, no need!"

Seeing the fat pig being dragged down, the Shaozhou gentry waved his hands again and again.

They were really afraid of Zhang Sheng, so they dared to stay for dinner.

"How can this work?" Zhang Sheng smiled kindly.

"You paid more than 100 million in food and salary. If you don't even have a meal, the king will probably scold me for being ignorant of etiquette if he finds out."

"You know the etiquette?"

The Shaozhou gentry all looked sad, their defenses completely broken by Zhang Sheng's shamelessness.

"Okay, brother, let's have a big banquet tonight, with plenty of wine and meat, and enough food! I'll let all the green camp brothers in Shaozhou eat their bellies. After a few days, when the money and food come, I will personally I’ll give you a reward!”

"Thank you, Lord Hou!" The generals of the green battalion blushed and bowed their hands one by one.

That night, the entire Shaozhou city was brightly lit.

The green camp soldiers were all smiling, drinking from large bowls, eating large pieces of meat, and living a very lively life.

In the government office, Zhang Sheng personally entertained the local sages from Shaozhou.

The generals of the driving army and the green battalion gathered together and called each other brothers.

As for the common people in Shaozhou Prefecture, Zhang Sheng also ordered that each person be given a few fights of grain, so that the common people and soldiers could have fun together.

Now, the entire Shaozhou city is full of fish and water.

The lights and festoons are very lively.

Even the fireworks were set off.

I just feel sorry for the sages in Shaozhou, looking at the pork in front of them, each of them is unwilling to eat, and sighs.

"Eat, you don't want to eat!" Zhang Sheng laughed.

The Shaozhou gentry picked up their chopsticks one by one, their eyes dull.

"Everyone, that fat pig is in the pot."

"If you don't eat it, wouldn't it be for nothing?"

The gentry in Shaozhou were in great pain when they heard the news.

"Eat!" A squire picked up his chopsticks and put them into the pot, eating frantically.

"Eat! If you don't eat, the 30 yuan will be in vain!" Another gentleman stretched out his chopsticks and started chewing crazily.

"Is this right?" Zhang Sheng poured wine for the gentry himself.

Before the pig was clamped, it had 80 taels of silver and 20 shi of grain. After clamping it, it had 100 taels of silver and 30 shi of grain.

Calculated before and after, the pig in the pot is worth 30 yuan in food!
If you don't eat some and come back, wouldn't 30 be wasted!
Thinking of this, the gentry in Shaozhou were extremely depressed, and they ate the pork in the pot ruthlessly.

It looks like he wants to eat back 30.

But while eating, some gentry put down their chopsticks and began to cry.

"My silver! My food!" The gentleman took the lead, and the sad atmosphere spread instantly.

A gentry put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked at his weeping colleague, the pork in the pot, and was touched by the scene.

"I have saved up my capital for many years!"

In an instant, there was a lot of crying in the Shaozhou government office.

Gentlemen, weeping from covering their faces at the beginning, to crying with their heads in the back.

It added a lot of fun to this grand banquet.

"Look at your potential, isn't it just over 100 million yuan in food and grain?"

Zhang Sheng said angrily: "Your family business is still there, the land is still there, and it will pay back in a few years."

"Think about the person who was crushed to death by me. I sent people to copy their house directly, and there was not even a hair left."

"Look at his fate, and then look at you, this is to be content! Do you understand!"

As soon as this remark came out, the Shaozhou gentry was shocked.

One by one they stopped crying.

Zhang Sheng was right.

Look at others, then look at yourself, the neck of that ignorant colleague was pinched off, and his family property was confiscated.

Although I have paid for the money and food, isn't the foundation still there?
Thinking about it this way, the current situation does not seem unacceptable.

As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.

Harm comes from contrast, and contentment comes from contrast.

When I think of that relative who is still gratifying on weekdays, the colleague who flaunts his might is ruined.

The Shaozhou gentry feel much better!
"That's right." Zhang Sheng looked at the gentry, and said earnestly: "You guys, you have to take a long-term view, don't always stare at the money and food in front of you."

The gentry in Shaozhou all rolled their eyes. Zhang Sheng was right. Isn't it just money and food?As long as their family business is still there, the money and food will be earned back sooner or later.

"Hmph! Looks like the rent needs to be increased."

A gentry untied his knot and continued to pick up his chopsticks.

In fact, after working hard all afternoon, they were all very hungry.

As soon as the knot was untied, I felt hungry instantly.

"[-]% to [-]% of the land rent is still a bit low. It seems that after learning from the saints, the rent is [-]% to half." Another gentry held out his chopsticks.

The mood of the gentry in Shaozhou has finally stabilized. Isn't it just money and food?

As long as the family business and the land are still there, money and food will be available every year!

Although the figure of more than 100 million is scary, with the increase in land rent, it will be back in a few years!

Soon, the gentry were full of wine and food, and their spirits completely stabilized.

After Zhang Sheng gnawed the pig's trotters, he threw the bone in his hand and stretched.

What a comfort meal.

Logically speaking, this fat pig earned Sun Kewang and Zhang Sheng 30 yuan and should be given a decent burial.

But diligence and frugality are the traditional virtues of Xiying.

Xiying has no choice but to be diligent and thrifty. After all, where is Yunnan?How can we feed so many soldiers and horses without diligence and frugality?
Therefore, in order to avoid waste, this meritorious pig can only be stewed.

Fortunately, this pig became the psychological shadow of all Shaozhou gentry and earned another 30 yuan in salary.

If it has knowledge under the spring, it should be content.

"Brother, greet all the village sages and take them to collect money and food every day."

"Good!" Countless generals in front of the car and generals of the green battalion cheered.

Zhang Sheng smiled slightly when he saw this, and turned around to leave under the protection of his own soldiers.
