In the Datong General Office, facing Luo Yangxing, the commander of the Jinyiwei who arrived in person, whether it was out of etiquette or the thanks to him for his help in the court, Wei Zheng had to meet Luo Yangxing.

So, before Luo Yangxing arrived at the General's Mansion, Wei Zheng had already left his troops and returned to the General's Mansion with quick horses.

Facing that he had not left any evil deeds in history, Luo Yangxing, who was a good official in the late Ming Dynasty or early Qing Dynasty, was directly kneeling on the ground with one leg and said as the Tongzhi of the Jinyiwei.

"The lower official Jinyiwei and Wei Zheng, together with the commander..."

Although Wei Zheng reduced his value in front of him, Wei Zheng had become a powerful general with heavy troops.

So, Wei Zheng was just about to salute Luo Yangxing, and Luo Yangxing, who had a smile on his face, walked over quickly to stop Wei Zheng from salute. Then, he sighed with relief.

"Mr. Wei still recognizes me as an old boss. Then I will do my best to fight for the interests of Master Wei in the court. It is very worth it... OK, very good..."

After saying that, Luo Yangxing's words suddenly changed and continued.

"However, Lord Wei, you are not just a small Jinyiwei Tongzhi, but also a third-rank official in the imperial court with heavy troops. If nothing unexpected happens, after Lord Wei, you eliminate the rebels, your third-rank official will become a second-rank official who is comparable to me..."

"So, if Lord Wei respects this official, don't call yourself a lower official in front of me. Let's call me brother. I call you Brother Wei, so call me Brother Luo..."

At this time, Wei Zheng had a great impression of the commander who had met for the first time, and even had the idea of ​​taking him into his pocket in the future and taking him back to his use.

Seeing that the other party looked at him without any conspiracy or purpose, Wei Zheng directly answered with a readily look: "Okay, since Lord Luo looks down on me, I, Wei, will drag me down once, call you Brother Luo..."

After some greetings, the two people with a small age difference became like brothers and said nothing.

When there were only two people left in the lobby of the General's Office, Luo Yangxing directly expressed his intention: "Brother Wei, I am intimate. This time I came to Datong, one for the purpose of handling the mission, and the other for the letter you wrote to me by Brother Wei. I hope you can support me, handle the imperial mission well, and make another great contribution, and severely attack the civil officials in the court who claim to be loyal ministers..."

Wei Zheng's eyes lit up and asked Luo Yangxing: "Brother Luo means that the emperor has agreed to Huairen County to compensate me for the Tiger and Leopard Army to use it to accommodate the families of those fallen soldiers..."

Luo Yangxing nodded and replied: "Your Majesty agrees, but we have to decide on the specific compensation plan..."

"So, I hope Brother Wei will not speak loudly. Let us discuss a win-win plan for both sides and report it to the court. In this way, Brother Wei will not suffer any losses, and His Majesty does not need to take out a tael of silver..."

"So that's it..." Wei Zheng thought to himself.

Soon, an idea came to Wei Zheng's mind. After all, since he took Huairen County back from the rebels, Wei Zheng was thinking about how to take Huairen County from the court.

Therefore, Wei Zheng had a rough idea in his mind. What needs to be done now is to connect these ideas to form a win-win solution for both sides.

Under Luo Yangxing's smile, Wei Zheng said directly: "Brother Luo, I have never had the opportunity to express my gratitude to you when you helped me in the court so much. Now, I finally have a chance to help Brother Luo, and it is also a chance to help me myself. Of course I can't let it go..."

"Please rest assured by Brother Luo. The plan I want to talk about next will not only allow Brother Luo to complete this imperial mission, but also make Your Majesty happy and reward you with great reward..."

Luo Yangxing's eyes lit up and he asked, "What's the solution..."

Wei Zheng smiled and replied: "The plan is very simple... As long as the court compensates Huairen County, which has been turned into ruins, to the families of the soldiers who fell into battle, the Tiger and Leopard Army will not only no longer need the court's one tael of silver, but starting next year, the families of the soldiers who received land compensation will also pay 10,000 dan of grain to the court every year. If converted into silver, it will be paid at the amount of 50,000 taels per year."

Seeing Luo Yangxing quickly fell into deep thought and began to weigh the pros and cons of this plan, Wei Zheng continued to analyze: "Although Huairen County has a county, due to the drought every year, the land that can still be cultivated is already very limited, less than 30,000 acres. In the battle to attack Huairen County, the fallen soldiers of our Tiger and Leopard Army were exactly 1,500."

"Thus, every family member of the fallen soldiers can compensate for 20 acres of fertile land..."

"Brother Luo, you should know that in today's world, the value of twenty acres of fertile land is far less than that of a few years ago. If it were calculated as silver, it would be less than 100 taels of silver."

"It can be said that the 30,000 mu of arable land in Huairen County is already the minimum standard for the soldiers. I hope the court will not disappoint the soldiers..."

Luo Yangxing nodded and did not make any more disputes on this issue, but asked Wei Zheng unexpectedly.

"I have used Huairen County, which has no value as a pension. This result has been approved by His Majesty in the court. I have absolutely no objection... What I want to say is that Brother Wei, you really plan to pay 10,000 dan of grain or 50,000 taels of silver to the court every year..."

"You know, before Huairen County was occupied by the rebels, the tax revenue of Huairen County was less than 8,000 taels of silver a year. Brother Wei, after you took over this county town that had been burned to ruins, you actually paid 50,000 taels of silver to the court, which was six times the original one. This made Luo feel puzzled and worried..."

"If Brother Wei has any secret, please share it with me. I will definitely not spread it to you..."

"In addition, brother, I came here this time, in addition to completing the imperial envoy assigned to me by Your Majesty, there is another important thing, that is, to cooperate with Brother Wei..."

"So, I hope Brother Wei can treat me honestly. I believe that after we cooperate with each other, one inside and the other outside, our strength in the court will definitely become stronger and stronger."

Faced with the problem of Luo Yangxing being so frank, Wei Zheng was directly beaten.

However, even though he was scared, Wei Zheng's mind did not stop working.
