Chapter 190
When Liu Bu heard the other party say this, he felt very strange. He said, "What have you done? You can tell me and share it together. Anyway, we are all a family. You can confess everything you have, open your heart, encourage each other, and support you to move forward."
Zheng Zining said, "I don't need other people's support. Can you tell me if you have anything?"
Liu Bu said, "It's over, nothing is wrong." He actually just can't hide a few taels of butter from his belly. He will tell you anything and want to talk to someone.
But his current position is somewhat inconvenient to talk to others on an equal basis.
He confides with Liu Yuanqiao, Liu Fuqi and others, and the other party will think he is childish.
If he asks him to talk to his subordinates, he will lose his prestige as a superior. As a commander, if he doesn’t have prestige, how can he lead everyone?
In the past, he could talk to Chen Yuanyuan and Meiren. Chen Meiren is a good listener, but he could not provide any advice.
Now Zheng Zining is also a good listener and can obey his incest, which allows him to express his thoughts and express his thoughts. He feels much better. Without Zheng Zining, he wants to find a tree hole.
Although Zheng Zining said so, Liu Bu always felt strange.
Liu Bu was still thinking about the same thing, that is, the scholars of this era basically read books of sages, and should be full of the ways of benevolence and forgiveness of sages. However, everyone took it for granted that they robbed Fan Yongdou's family, and they also felt a little disapproving of the entanglement he showed.
Is this the depravity of human nature? Can people be so inhumane for money?
But when it comes to human nature, Liu Bu remembered the same thing, that is, although Buddha is compassionate, he also has the power to suppress the tiger.
Why did the Buddha want to subdue the tiger? Why did he clear the hell? There are so many evil ghosts in hell, but if they don’t clear it, how can mortals live?
However, Liu Bu was very confused, but he had no regrets about destroying Fan Yongdou's family. If he had not destroyed this family, he would not know how much supplies they would have brought to Jiannu, and how much information about the border army had been sent.
Generally, the eight masters may have always believed that they were doing business with Jiannu, just making money, and had no other meaning. Business is business and had nothing to do with the country and nation.
However, in the original version of Jiannu, they were very good at thinking that they had made great contributions to Jiannu's entry into the pass and established countries, so they must be rewarded.
They resolutely postponed and did not dare to accept the reward, but even Emperor Jiannu felt that if such a hero was not rewarded, it would be a dissatisfaction among the world and would have to be rewarded.
The eight major merchants were flattered and tried their best to refuse. So the young emperor of Shunzhi appointed them as the Imperial Shang (residual Office).
Fan Yongdou was ordered to take charge of trade affairs and "give Zhangjiakou to be the world's industry." The other seven families also had rewards. From then on, Fan Yongdou and others obtained political and economic privileges that other merchants could not enjoy. Not only did he buy goods for the royal family, he also took advantage of the situation to open up wealth and do business everywhere.
In addition to operating Hedong and Changlu Salt Industry, he also monopolized the market for precious medicinal materials such as ginseng in Ussuri, Suifen and other places in the northeast, and was thus called ginseng merchant by the people. In a blink of an eye, Fan Yongdou became a great merchant with millions of wealth, and was one of the best among the eight great masters.
Betrayed the Ming Dynasty and won them countless gold, silver and jewelry, allowing their descendants to enjoy the wealth and glory.
Since Liu Bu came here, the first thing he had to eliminate was these traitors and lackeys. He could not let them all enjoy their old age and die after they had all their wealth and glory.
So he secretly commanded Liu Ning and others to make noise when doing this. Even the refugees of Liao Town, Liaodong Revenge Army, also gave other people a warning.
If the others were not restrained a little, he would not mind continuing to destroy them.
Now they are still in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, or on the right side of the mountain. Jiannu cannot protect them. Local government dogs can be bought and protected by them. However, outside the Ming Dynasty government, they are beaten to kneel down by Jiannu, and inside are beaten to death by bandits and running to the death. If his Liu family army wants to target one target, it is probably the emperor that he cannot protect them.
If these people still do their own things and are unscrupulous, they will ask them for money when the Liu family is short of money.
Since they dared to earn gold and silver at the cost of selling the blood and sweat of the country and the people, they would take the gold and silver over and leave them with nothing.
Liu Bu was still very satisfied with this result. Not only did they destroy Fan Yongdou, a big traitor, but they also obtained so much money, so he immediately appointed Liu Ning and Mao Shengli, who were in charge of this operation, promoted them to Thousand House Officials, and Iron Hand King Kong Zhou Heimae to Thousand House Officials.
This thousand-household official was appointed by their Liu family. This was not the fifth-rank thousand-household official appointed by the court, because even Liu Bu was only a fifth-rank thousand-household official in the court, and Liu Ning and Mao Shengli would not be appointed by the court, but they would be responsible for the troops of more than a thousand people in the Liu family, and they were considered the kind of generals with power and namelessness.
This is a reward for their actions this time.
Liu Bu said to Liu Ning, Mao Shengli, and Iron Hand King Kong Zhou Heimai: "I am very satisfied with this action. You have achieved perfect success, which further proves your loyalty. You can successfully bring back so much money, and you are not greedy. You can only say one thing, we will be together in the future."
Liu Ning said: "Our recent operation was carried out completely under the guidance of the adults. The ones dispatched were also your troops. Whoever dares to swallow your money, I will not agree to it first."
Liu Bu said: "Now who is not a black eyeball that is shameful for money? If you can transport so much money back, I will treat you as your own people in the future."
Liu Ning said, "There will be something that will be done to the Lord."
Liu Bu said: "It can be said."
Liu Ning said: "This time we took dozens of brothers and their families..."
Liu Bu asked Liu Ning: "What is the pension standard for our Liu family army?"
Liu Ning said: "The Ming Dynasty is the best. There should be no unreasonable mention in the end. Please forgive me."
Liu Bu said: "The sacrificial brothers first get a pension, which is the standard for our Liu family army. In addition, they will be rewarded five times the standard according to the standard."
Liu Ning knelt down and said, "Thank you for your help."
Liu Bu said: "I will not treat those who work hard for me unfairly. Liu Ning, what was your surname before?"
Liu Ning sold his body as a slave to enter the Liu family, not from the Liu family, but changed his surname to Liu.
Liu Ning said: "The last general's surname was Xiao."
Liu Bu said: "From tomorrow, you will change your surname to Xiao Ning. Go to Butler Liu to get the contract for sale."
Liu Ning shook his head and refused, saying, "Since I will be sold to the Liu family, who is born from the Liu family, and who is dead is the Liu family's ghost."
Liu Bu said angrily: "If a beautiful woman said this to me, I love to hear it. A big man should not do this. You are also raised by your father and mother. Your father will definitely not want you to sell yourself as a slave. Instead, I hope you will shine your family and your family and your family will shine. Since you are already a thousand households, you are qualified to set up your own business. One day you can shine your family and your ancestors."
Liu Ning and the others were very moved to hear it, and knelt down again, kowtowed three times, and he said, "Sir Xie."
Liu Ning saw these loyal subordinates, because they could do anything for money these days. After they went to Shanxi to do this, they actually transported all the money back without taking private escape, which means they had no problems in their hearts. He said, "Tonight, celebrate your merits."
Of course, they celebrated these merits with low profile, internal, but they just said that they went out to perform missions and returned successfully. At present, they were not arrogant and promoted in a high-profile manner that they destroyed Jiexiu Fan Yongdou's family.
Jiexiu Fan Yongdou's family was destroyed. This was a big incident that caused a sensation in Shanxi and caused great shock in the local area. However, in the circle of their seven major merchants, everyone would be even more insecure.
Because while destroying Fan Yongdou, they also received a warning for flying arrows.
An organization that claims to be a revenge army in Liaodong claimed to be responsible for Fan Yongdou's destruction. They claimed that they destroyed Fan Yongdou's family, but only revenge on him, sold a large amount of material and information to Jiannu, and warned them that if they dared to sell materials and information to Jiannu, Fan Yongdou would be their end.
The Liaodong Revenge Army was so powerful and fierce that they were very shocked and scared. Everyone in their circle was in danger. Originally, they had caravans going outside the pass, but now they all stopped the bosses of several families gathered together and secretly discussed what to do.
After discussing, I didn't know what to do, but one thing is that business still needs to be done. It is impossible to make so much money without making any money. Moreover, the channels they finally made were transported to the court and the generals of the border to open up today's channels. Now that they say they don't do it, how much money would they lose? And if they don't do it now, I guess Jiannu will not let them go.
The Eight Great Masters refer to Fan Yongdou, Wang Dengku, Jin Liangyu, Wang Dayu, Liang Jiabin, Tian Shenglan, Zhai Tang, Huang Yunfa and other eight people.
