Chapter 5 The Oriole (Eight)
"Pu" "Pu" "Pu" "Pu" After the words fell, the powerful and local geniuses knelt on the ground immediately fainted halfway.
Chang Si pretended to be confused, looked at the remaining powerful villagers who didn't have time to pretend to faint, and asked with a smile: "Why are you lying down? Is the interest rate that I want too high? When the neighbors are in trouble, what profit will be collected by the loan? Let me tell you quickly, I will charge interest as you did when you lend!"
"Give me your life, sir!" The remaining half of the powerful and local geniuses immediately collapsed nearly a quarter of them. The rest of them staggered and cried out loudly.
According to the current folk market, the three-point profit is indeed not high. In order to seize other people's property, the powerful and local geniuses have let go of four, four and a half, even borrowing two to three or five to ten. But at that time they were all creditors, not victims of usury, and they couldn't feel the pain. At this moment, they suddenly lost their identity and immediately understood how desperate the borrower was in his heart at that time!
"Shut up!" Chang Si was upset by the crying of everyone, and shouted loudly: "Why are you howling? I didn't force you to borrow it?! You can take out your debts for six years, and I am eager to save some effort here! People come and send me a place to orders. From today on, no pawnshop or business person will agree to any loan of more than fifty knots! Those who violate the order will be engaged in military law!"
"Yes!" The soldiers suppressed their laughter and responded in unison. Then they pretended to go to the place where they were sent overnight. The powerful and local geniuses lying on the ground immediately recovered from their "coma". They rolled forward one by one, blocking the soldiers' way, and cried and begged for resentment, "No! All the soldiers are kind! Chang Jiedu is kind. We borrow, we are willing to borrow, and we will sign and seal the letter on the spot today!"
The soldiers looked embarrassed and looked back at Chang Si. The latter's fat and round face instantly returned to the sunshine from the dense clouds. Rubbed his hands and whispered: "Let's slow down first and give them a chance. They are all well-known figures in the local area. I can't force them to the dead. This way, in terms of interest, I will also give you a discount to all the local geniuses. Anyone who sends a biological son to serve in my husband's account will have an interest rate of 20% down from three points. Without a son, the legitimate nephew is also counted. If anyone can send fifteenth legitimate children and nephews to my husband's account, I will not charge you interest and borrow it for free!"
"Thank you!"
"Master, Duke, Wandae!"
"My dear lord today is unforgettable for the people!"
"Sir, you are really a family..."
The powerful and local geniuses finally saw a glimmer of light from the boundless darkness. They scrambled to kneel straight, thanked loudly, and nailed the bricks and feet.
These days, there are many children and many blessings. Who wouldn’t take more than a dozen wives to give birth to a large number of sons born from the legitimate family? The sons born from the legitimate family naturally would not be willing to give them to King Chang Yan as hostages. The sons born from the legitimate family were worried that they could not find a way out, so why not send them to the army to find a background? Even if he accidentally died one day, he would be his own life, and no wonder others. Their father had never even hugged them several times, and of course he might not feel much distressed!
Amid the false gratitude, Chang Si's words sounded particularly clear and cold: "Remember, it is the legitimate son and nephew. If you can't be a distant relative, don't think about using the farmer as an accusation. If I find someone Li Dai Taozhuan, don't blame me for double the interest!"
"I dare not, the grass people dare not!"
"I dare not, sir, even if Caomin has a hundred courages, he will not dare to deceive you!"
"The Lord has given Caomin a way out. If Caomin doesn't know how to be grateful, then..."
The powerful and the local geniuses shivered and scrambled to express their opinions. As the saying goes, they can't bear to let their children go to trap the wolf. Although they were cut off from their idea of seeking substitution for tenants, they could give up a few children and grandchildren to give up, and after all, they could reduce the interest rate by half. Moreover, the bravery of Wu Shengjun was witnessed by everyone just now. With just three thousand new recruits, they could defeat more than 30,000 green forest heroes and fleeing in the army, and as long as they were not unlucky, they might not die in battle. After three or five years, with the ink in their belly and their sound limbs, they could even get a hundred generals. By then, Wu Shengjun and everyone would not be separated from each other, and they could walk in a swagger again in the countryside!
"Come here, I'll see you off for me!" Chang Si's entire purpose had been achieved, so he no longer wanted to waste his time. He waved his hand and ordered his personal soldiers to drive away all the "guests". Then, he picked out the second wave of "guests" from the waiting team at the camp gate and continued to cheer up and deal with them.
Some powerful people and local geniuses have already taken the initiative to pay the debts to local governments or Han Chongyun and others for three years. Chang Si was very pleased to these smart people. He also took out real blanks from the account and asked the smart people to recommend their nephews to be officials. Some stubborn people tried to continue to retain their special status of not paying taxes to the government in the past and being able to speak out in the countryside. Chang Si was beheaded who should be beheaded and fined twice as much as he should be fined. Soon, the second wave of "guests" were taken over by him and he never dared to have any luck or confrontation.
The third wave of "guests" waited a little longer, and there was enough opportunity to find out Chang Si's methods from the first wave of "guests". Therefore, after being summoned, he took the initiative to surrender without waiting for Chang Si to force and induce him. Whether it was borrowing usury or sending his sons as a qualifier, he was obedient. Seeing that they were so "aware of the qualities", Chang Si was not too embarrassed. He agreed to pay the latest deadline for "accumulating debts", and then ordered people to send everyone out.
In this way, how could the remaining powerful and local geniuses not know what they should do? Suddenly, they closed their horns and barbs and showed their soft belly to Chang Siliang, the governor of Wusheng Army. Therefore, the process of summoning "guests" was greatly accelerated. Before dawn, all the "leading figures" who were ranked in Zezhou were completely controlled by Chang Si. In the entire Zelu prefectures, except for the extremely remote and closed fortresses and bandit dens in the mountains, the rest were included in the rule of Wusheng Army.
Chang Si used all the methods one by one in front of his disciples and students. During this period, no one was allowed to avoid them, nor did he send any young generals out to perform the mission. Everyone was dazzled and nodded. Even an absolute novice layman like Ning Ziming benefited a lot!
After sending out the "guest", Chang Si did not immediately ask the generals and his staff to retreat to rest. Instead, he summoned everyone into the central army tent and gave the kitchen a midnight snack. Then he asked with a smile while eating, "You can see clearly? You must be more evil than him when dealing with evil people. When two wolves are together, no one will bite anyone to death. If one wolf and a sheep are together, no matter how kind the sheep are and how polite the wolf is, it will inevitably become a meal in the other party's stomach!"
"Thank you for your teachings!"
"I will never forget you if you are taught!"
All the generals and staff stood up to thank them for the late-night snack.
"No need to be polite!" Chang Si smiled and waved his hand, adding with a kind look, "I am not only to teach you skills, but also to myself. If we five hundred brothers want to gain a foothold in the chaotic place of Zelu, we must all cheer up and be ten people alone! You can all be the only one side, and I am the governor of Wusheng Army, will be safe. If one of you has a diarrhea at a critical moment, I am afraid that not only will I not be the governor, but it will be difficult to save the lives of my wife, children, and the elders!"
In the last sentence, he said it plainly, as if he was joking. The staff and generals heard it in their ears, but they were like thunder rolling. They jumped up one by one and comforted them with all their mouths:
"this……"
"Where are you talking about this, sir?"
"We will do our best! Sir, don't be so disappointed!"
"Sir, the clouds will eventually disperse, and you will sooner or later..."
"There's no time!" Chang Si sighed and waved his hand gently, "Otherwise, why should I kill Wang De today? I killed him, not because our Wusheng Army now has several times more troops than when we first arrived in Luzhou, and the capital is sufficient, so we are arrogant. I killed him, telling someone not to stretch my claws to my husband's side. Otherwise, the activities that other military governors dare to do will be no worse!"
"This..." Most civil and military officials were confused when they heard it, not knowing what had happened recently, which made Chang Si's reaction so intense. Only a few, including Han Chongyun, Yang Guangyi, Wang Zhengzhong and Ning Ziming, raised their heads alertly, with gleams in their eyes.
"Master, are the second prince and the queen playing something?!" After hesitating, Han Chongyun asked in a low voice. "You can relax. With Shi Shumi and Guo Shumi here, the emperor may not be partial to them!"
Yang Guangyi followed closely behind and cursed angrily: "That Liu Chengyou is not good at doing things, he cheats people with bad intentions, but he is more than anyone else! And that Guo Yunming, at the beginning, I really should have secretly shot a cold arrow and killed him!"
"Master can take the initiative to send someone to Bianliang to manage the matter. With your qualifications, even if the emperor is bewitched by a traitor, he will be concerned about the reactions of other ministers!" The third person who spoke was Wang Zhengzhong, who did not blame anyone, but thought of a seemingly feasible solution for Chang.
Chang Si was neither busy accepting advice nor vetoing. After listening to the three of them patiently, he smiled and turned his eyes to Ning Ziming, "Where are you? Ziming, what are you thinking about teaching me?"
"This..., I dare not, I dare not!" Ning Ziming was stunned for a moment, and then bowed to salute, "I always feel that Liu, the emperor's eyes will not be too short-sighted. Compared to you, Li Shouzhen, Fu Yanqing, Zhao Kuangzan, Hou Yi, etc., are the targets he should beware of! Unless, unless he has lost his power, Bianliang is in the dynasty at this moment!"
"How is this possible?" Before Chang Si could express his opinion, Yang Guangyi was the first to jump out to refute. "The emperor is the emperor right away, his body is very strong. His ears will not be as soft as a nerd!"
"Yes, although General Ziming's words make sense, they are really a bit over-thinking!" Other civil and military officials also spoke one after another, not thinking that Liu Zhiyuan was likely to be underestimated by foreign relatives.
