Southern Song Dynasty military god

Chapter 368 Set the rules and trap the world
While Liu Wei was busy with "housework", Gao Jin was also having trouble in the Chengdu County Yamen.

Because they came together with the richest families in Chengdu County, the leader, Mr. Zhang, was not very polite to Gao Jin in his words, and could even be said to be a little aggressive.

It was only because Gao Jin wanted to go further and climb higher on the official road, and considering that it was time for Liu Wei to win people's hearts recently, he maintained a tepid attitude and came to talk to these local tyrants in front of him. deal with.

In fact, it is not a bad thing for these local tyrants headed by Mr. Zhang to come to Gao Jin. After all, they also want to invest. To put it bluntly, they just want to sell Liu Wei and Liu Jiajun. Gao Jin didn't want to let go because he wasn't looking for economic benefits.

Gao Jin's reticence doesn't mean that Mr. Zhang Jia didn't open his mouth. He kept saying that he wanted to contribute to the construction of Liujiazhuang City, but every time he talked about it, he always talked about a topic that Gao Jin didn't want to hear: rights!
To put it bluntly, what these local tyrants think about is "rights".The wealth in their hands has reached the point where they no longer need to care about petty profits. Because the wealth accumulated under their feet is too high, they see too far.

It is true that people stand tall and see far.However, if you stand tall, once you fall down, you will definitely fall even worse!
"Masters, I have already made your thoughts clear. Since it is the bond issued by Liu Jiazhuang, it is Liu Jiazhuang who has the final say. What you say is useless, and what I say is also useless!" Wait until Mr. Zhang's family After the person finished speaking, Gao Jin spoke calmly.

Obviously, Mr. Zhang Jia and others are very dissatisfied with Gao Jin's evasive attitude. Money, the people can not fight with the officials.

"Master County Magistrate, I'm afraid that building a city should not be done without hesitation? Although Liujiazhuang has sold a lot of bonds, Xiaomin believes that the lack of funds may still be quite large. There are rumors that Liujiazhuang's reputation is damaged. In the future, it may not be so easy for Liujiazhuang to sell bonds. Even the bonds that have been sold will make the holders worry, let alone let the bonds replace some of the bank notes and circulate them. Do adults think so?"

Mr. Zhang's family deserves to be a person with vision. When Gao Jin began to show a tough attitude, Mr. Zhang's family immediately changed the subject, becoming soft and strong, and even threatening Gao Jin faintly. If he is not as good as theirs Wish, it's really hard to say what kind of consequences will be caused by playing a little trick in private.

"Oh, Mr. Zhang thinks that with the character of the head of the Liu family, General Liu Wei, it's fine if the rumors are true. If the rumors are malicious slander, how will he deal with it?"

"Your words are wrong! Liujiazhuang is the Liujiazhuang of Chengdu County, but Chengdu County is not General Liu's Chengdu County! If General Liu wants to cover the sky in Chengdu County or even Yizhou Prefecture, it depends on us locals. Happy or not!"

"So what if you're happy? So what if you're not happy?" Gao Jin's face became serious, and he looked at Mr. Zhang who was talking coldly, and asked.

"If you're happy, we can cooperate! Let's talk about it, not only our family can cooperate, but as long as our family makes a joint statement, most people in Chengdu County can cooperate with General Liu! But if we all don't If you're happy, well, even if Liu Jiajun's troops are like clouds, we can't be like a chariot, but at least we can report it to the court!"

"Oh, I understand now. In fact, you don't really want to talk to me today. You actually want to have an interview with General Liu, right?"

When Gao Jin said this, the Mr. Zhang family and others were a little ponderous.

Talk to Gao Jin. After all, Gao Jin is the magistrate and the official of his parents. Whether he can do a good job in this function and whether he can be re-elected in the future has a lot to do with the cooperation of the local tyrants under his rule.

However, Liu Wei is different. He is a general with heavy troops in his hands, and he only has a Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Chengdu County. In fact, let alone the county magistrate of Chengdu County, even if it is the magistrate of Yizhou Prefecture, he will It is not necessary to give!

More importantly, everyone has seen what Liu Jiazhuang has done in Chengdu County over the years. If this offends Liu Jiazhuang and Liu Wei, it is really hard to say what the consequences will be. There is no lesson learned.In the eyes of Mr. Zhang's and other wealthy people, soldiers like Liu Wei have a single-minded mind. They don't know what is good or bad, and they don't know how to advance or retreat. The comparison is who has bigger fists!
If you offend this kind of person, you may have to suffer his unrestrained revenge!

It was precisely because of such considerations that when Gao Jin mentioned Liu Wei, the Mr. Zhang family and the others temporarily turned off their lights and made eye contact, as if they wanted to come up with an idea in a short time, whether to go to see Liu Wei , which is a big problem.

"It seems that you need some time to discuss. The official will give you the time to discuss. You can come to the yamen tomorrow morning. I will invite General Liu to the yamen as a guest. If you really want to buy the bonds of Liujiazhuang, you are welcome to bring cash and silver. If you come here with a ticket, if you want to ask General Liu something, well, I don’t make any guarantees, General Liu will definitely like it!"

By the time he said this to the end, Gao Jin's face was already very ugly.

It was the sudden visit of Mr. Zhang Jia and others that made Gao Jin feel a strong threat.But standing in his position, it is difficult to deal with these local wealthy people in any extreme way, so he decided to hand over this problem to Liu Wei.

And Liu Wei, who received Gao Jin's notice, was really surprised at first.

"Brother, did they say how much bonds they plan to buy?"

"This." Gao Jin frowned and raised his hand, rubbed his forehead, and said, "I really haven't asked about this."

"Brother, I really don't know much about these rich people in the Zhang family, so what do you think is the purchasing power of a group of rich people like them?"

"Well, if they really want to help you wholeheartedly, I'm afraid 30 to [-] won't be a problem, and it will be difficult to ask for more!"

"Why?"

Gao Jin's answer made Liu Wei a little puzzled.Logically speaking, Bashu, as a land of abundance since ancient times, has always been known for its wealth. As a rich man in the core area of ​​Bashu, Liu Wei feels that his net worth is less than a million taels, so he is ashamed to be called a rich man.

This is because Liu Wei came from a later generation and did not know enough about the situation of the rich and powerful families in ancient times.

But Gao Jin knew very well that the original Gao Family Manor could be considered rich, but if Gao Jin, the head of the family, really wanted to get cash out, how much could he have?In ancient times, whether gold, silver or copper coins, in the final analysis, they were not used to measure the wealth of a family.

Take the rich people who came to Gao Jin today as an example, those who made their fortunes through business may really have a lot of real money, either hidden at home or deposited in bank bank accounts, but apart from these rich people who made their fortunes through business, Big landlords, their amount of gold and silver is actually not much. The so-called wealth is mainly because of the amount of land they own and the granary!
In ancient times, the granary was the symbol to measure the wealth of a family.Especially in troubled times, can gold and silver be eaten?The matter of grains of rice and grains of gold did not appear once or twice in Chinese history. At the critical moment of life and death, the food that can fill the belly so that people will not starve to death is much more important than gold and silver.

That's why Gao Jin thought that if the rich were allowed to buy the bonds of Liujiazhuang, they might not be able to come up with too much real money. Two to three million yuan might be the limit.

However, after Gao Jin said this, Liu Wei understood a little bit and was inspired.

"Actually, our bonds don't necessarily need real gold and silver to buy. After all, our gold, silver and copper coins are only used when purchasing materials. If they are used to pay labor wages, food is also acceptable."

"Hey, it's true! Why didn't I think of it!" Gao Jin also patted Liu Wei's thigh together, but he calmed down instead, looked at Liu Wei and said, "Liu Wei, although food can also be converted into cash to buy Bonds, but I always feel that these guys have no good intentions to jump out so actively!"

"Hmph, don't worry, brother, I know this well! If they are really going for the interest, then that's all. If they are whimsical, then I, Liu Wei, am a fuel-efficient lamp! To be honest, I have long thought that these are rich and unkind The guy is not pleasing to the eye, if someone shows up, I don't mind taking a few family members to do the surgery!"

"Liu Wei, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run! These rich people not only have influence in our local area, some of them have family backgrounds, and even go to the imperial court. If they act in a hurry, what if."

"Brother, I will never be ridden on my head! You and I know in our hearts that the court is nothing at all. If it weren't for people like Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, I would have waited until now? It's been a few years!"

"Liu Wei, why do you say that? Could it be that after a few years, you will be able to develop a power that is not inferior to that of the Jin and Song Dynasties?" Regarding this question, Gao Jin has never asked clearly, and today just happened to talk about it, so he was serious Bajing asked.

"It doesn't necessarily mean that I have developed to that level, big brother, haven't you heard a common saying?" Liu Wei narrowed his eyes slightly, and involuntarily thought of the words "unnecessary" in his mind.

"What slang?"

"Self-destruct the Great Wall!"

At the same time as saying these four words, Liu Wei jumped up against the case, while Gao Jin was slightly taken aback, then shook his head and smiled wryly.
