Chapter 625

text

Zhang Fa disagreed with Li Mu's statement of "spreading coins". In his heart, Li Mu's behavior was similar to a nouveau riche. But he didn't have any jokes. I recall that when he became a scholar, he was also a penniless poor scholar. When he became the county magistrate and got his first extra money, his mood was similar to the marquis in front of him. At that time, I would rather not spend it myself than let people know. Show off my relatives and friends. I, Zhang Fa, finally made a fortune. I became an official and had money. I am better than you.

Zhang Fa thought to himself that Li Mu should have the same idea. He was looked down upon in Mayi when he was a child. Now that he has been named a marquis, he must have someone to take a look. It is reasonable for him to succeed in his youth. Zhang Fa made up his mind to make up for the marquis. If the marquis doesn't have enough hands, he will have to make up for it. This is not the time to care about money. If he climbs up this high branch and has power, are you still afraid of not having money?

Leaving Li Mu's tent, he returned to the city with a hanging basket, and slept happily. As soon as it dawn, Zhang Fa got up, cleaned up, and called all officials from all over the county government. According to the situation that had been rehearsed countless times before, he came to the city gate to welcome Li Mu. Of course, the county magistrate who was named was no longer listed. Zhang Fa had sent him away overnight, and this was also for his own good. Otherwise, if he saw it, he might have lost his life.

He beat gongs and drums to welcome Li Mu to the city. After walking a few steps, Li Mu stopped and asked Zhang Fa if he had prepared a notice. Zhang Fa was naturally ready and hurriedly asked someone to post it. There were not many people who read the word, and the master read it twice at the top of his voice. The people learned that the marquis who returned home in glory actually wanted to donate a library, and they didn't have money. The poor son could also study. They all knelt on the ground and praised him repeatedly. Li Mu was in a good mood and ordered the people to get up. He was about to start scattering coins.

When the people heard that the Marquis wanted to send money, they all looked unbelievable. Although Zhang Fa was full of sincerity, the same was true in his heart. Sending money? Who has the money to send to the poor? I’m afraid it’s just a gesture. This shows that the Marquis is still young, and he speaks so much, and the people gather so much. If he only spreads a hundred and eighty-strong rule, how can he be saved?

In order to please Li Mu, Zhang Fa secretly winked the master. The master understood and called a few yamen runners and brought two boxes of copper coins over. He was about to replace it when the marquis had no money to spread, so he found this noodles.

But the next scene made him completely dumbfounded. Li Mu climbed up the city wall, followed by a long team of soldiers, carrying a heavy box, with ten boxes.

Li Mu raised his hand, and the sergeant put down the box and made a heavy sound. The box opened wide and reflected the morning sun. There were thousands of rays of rays and thousands of auspicious colors, not only copper, but also silver, and even gold. Li Mu stood in the light reflected by the morning sun and these gold and silver treasures, like a god.

"Dear fellow villagers, Li Mu came out of Mayi. By chance, he made some achievements. Thanks to Your Majesty, he received a lot of rewards. I was the one who grew up and everyone knew me. I, Li Mu, are not a person who values ​​money. I don't know how to spend these rewards from Your Majesty. This time I returned to my hometown, I brought back all the rewards from Your Majesty. There were not many, and the miscellaneous amount was added up, and only 30,000 to 40,000 yuan was given to everyone. When I was away in the future, I hope everyone will take care of me and burn more incense for me to thank all the neighbors!"

After Li Mu said that, with a wave of his hand, the soldiers began to sprinkle coins. According to Li Mu's instructions, they arrested them and threw them. They were randomly still and could not be thrown into one place. They tried to make it even. As for whether they were getting copper coins, ingots or gold and silver vessels, it was a personal luck.

Before the people could react from Li Mu's words, the copper coins and ingots had already hit the head. Even the magistrate Zhang was hit on the head for a while. He reached out and touched it and it turned out to be a gin wine cup. He weighed it and it was a pound of one or two. This was ten taels of silver, ten cents of coins! Even if he was the magistrate, the money was not enough.

The people around were already robbing them and were lying on the ground to pick them up. Even the master was no exception, snatching ingots from the yamen runners. County Magistrate Zhang was not so despicable because of his face. He just secretly put the golden wine cup in his arms. He raised his foot and stepped on a big ingot next to him. He was about to bend down to pick them up, but suddenly he saw that there were several people nearby who were not bent down like him. This seemed very strange. There are still people who don’t like money these days? When did such people appear in Mayi City?

Just as he was swaying, a "swish" sound suddenly rang out, and then screams rang out, and the people fled in all directions. County Magistrate Zhang looked up and saw that the soldiers who had just raised the box had a crossbow in their hands, and they were continuous crossbows, three-inch long crossbows shot straight to the people standing. The people standing were not waiting to die, and they also took out a crossbow arrow, but their crossbows were obviously far apart and could not be shot continuously. Only a few arrows were fired, and they were shot into hedgehogs. The arrows they shot were also blocked by the soldiers' arm shields.

Zhang Fa was secretly shocked. Why did this marquis have such a temper? Will he have to die if he doesn’t pick up his money?

County Magistrate Zhang was almost scared and knelt on the ground. The people also learned something and knelt on the ground and did not dare to move.

"What are you doing? I have no intention of hurting everyone. Look, are these dead people from our Mayi?"

Everyone looked at it and found that they were all innocent.

"These people are my lords' opponents. They are mixed in the crowd and want to assassinate me. I will get rid of them and just bury them. Everyone should pick up money. There are still many on the ground. If you don't pick them up, you will be someone else's."

When the people heard this, they immediately forgot about the dead and committed suicide to the "money-grabbing war".

Li Mu came down from the city wall, and Zhang Fa hurriedly met him. The scene of crossbows flying together just now was really scared. He reluctantly suppressed his fear and quickly apologized for "The Marquis, the officials were not strict in supervision, so they didn't know if they entered the city in detail. It's really damn."

"It's not your fault, I've all attracted it." Li Mu said lightly, "It's just that they've been blind. If my marquis's life is so easy to be taken away by them, it's a big deal. I'll send the order. Before dinner tonight, at least three households will protect each other and find the birth to interrogate them strictly. If you can't tell the way, you will leave it to General Su Lie you met yesterday, and he will deal with it."

Zhang Fa did not dare to breathe, and swallowed nervously. After a long time, he held up a "just order".
