The first thousand two hundred and fourteen chapters reward silver
"Fellow fellows, I won't say any more unnecessary nonsense. Let's start distributing the silver reward now."
Zhu Ping'an bowed his hands to everyone and went directly to the most anticipated part, handing out silver rewards.
The magistrate is really going to give out a reward of silver. Haha, the people in the audience are so excited and happy that their mouths are grinning almost to the ears. Can you not be excited? Anyone who goes up to the city wall to defend the city will receive at least ten taels.
As for silver, this is a huge sum of money.
"Wang Cuandian, Liu Dianli, Qian Dianli, Zhang Dianli, let's start distributing the reward money." Zhu Pingan said to the newly appointed Cuandian Wang Xiucai, Household Dianli Liu Fuzi, Cangfang Dianli Mr. Qian, Treasury Dianli
Mr. Zhang said.
"Yes." Wang Xiucai and others accepted the order.
"Dear fellow villagers, the reward money has now started to be distributed. Anyone whose name I read will come up to verify their identity. If the identity verification is correct, you can receive the corresponding reward. There is no need to worry or rush, the money will be paid in advance
Everyone has been calculated and managed. If you read out a name, one will come up. Those whose names are not read will all wait calmly below. Don't worry, no one will be left behind."
Master Liu stood on the stage and said to the people in the audience, and the officer responsible for maintaining order repeated his words loudly.
The people in the audience heard clearly and agreed one after another, very cooperatively.
"Okay, let's start now. Liu Erniu of Qiaobao Village, who bravely defended the city and continued to fight even though his back was injured, will be rewarded with a total of twenty-six taels of silver." Master Liu took out a thick roll of merit book from his arms and shouted loudly
Read the Tao.
The government officials repeated Master Liu's words loudly so that the people could hear them clearly.
"Come here, come here, I'm Liu Erniu."
Liu Erniu was the first one in the crowd to hear his name. He couldn't help but raise his arms in excitement. Seeing everyone's envious and admiring eyes, Liu Erniu enjoyed himself so much that his chin almost lifted to the sky.
Like a victorious general, he squeezed out of the crowd, walking a little dazedly.
"What a man!"
"Two cows, two cows, you are the best!"
"Awesome my cow!"
"Has the good man taken a wife? I have a daughter who is only eighteen years old. She is a perfect match for you."
Wherever Liu Erniu went, people all took the initiative to make way for him, with hot eyes and full of praise. There was even an old man who fell in love with Liu Erniu and wanted to betroth his little daughter to Liu Erniu.
ox.
Listening to everyone's compliments, Liu Erniu felt like he was almost floating. Speaking of which, Liu Erniu felt a little conflicted at the moment. He wanted to go on stage quickly to receive the silver reward, but he also wanted to walk slowly and enjoy it more.
The scorching eyes and compliments from everyone in the audience. This was the most prominent moment in Liu Erniu's life, bar none.
"Liu Erniu, as the dog said, what are you waiting for? Why don't you hurry up and collect the silver reward? We are still waiting."
While Liu Erniu was enjoying himself, some people who had also participated in the anti-Japanese war couldn't help laughing and scolding him, urging him to collect his silver reward quickly.
After being exposed by others, Liu Erniu couldn't wait to enjoy it any longer. He scratched his head angrily and hurried onto the stage with a naive smile.
"Huh? Is that wrong?! Shouldn't we be rewarded with twenty taels of silver?! The county magistrate issued a heavy reward order before the battle. Anyone brave enough to defend the city, regardless of soldiers or civilians, would be rewarded with ten taels of silver, and those who were injured would be rewarded with an additional ten taels of silver. Liu
Er Niu can be rewarded with ten taels of silver for bravely defending the city, and can be rewarded with another ten taels of silver for being injured. At this point, shouldn't Liu Erniu be rewarded with twenty taels of silver?! Why did the county magistrate give Liu Er Niu twenty six taels of silver?
Two silver rewards?!"
"That's right, the county magistrate made a mistake in his calculations?!"
At this time, someone noticed that there was something wrong with the amount of silver reward given to Liu Erniu, and couldn't help but remind him.
"Ahem, fellow villagers, there is nothing wrong with the reward of silver. Because the Holy One doubled the reward for killing Japanese in Jingnan, the county magistrate decided to distribute the extra reward to everyone equally according to the number of people. Everyone has a reward.
You can get six more taels of silver."
After hearing everyone questioning the amount of silver reward, Master Liu coughed and explained to everyone while stroking his beard.
What?!
The county magistrate not only had to fulfill his promise and issue the reward money according to the original heavy reward order, but he also took the initiative to distribute all the extra reward money to everyone?! Is the county magistrate stupid?! Why did he take the initiative to give everyone more money!?
Everyone can receive a reward of six taels of silver more than expected, which is nearly 20,000 taels of silver.
Wouldn’t it be nice for him to buy ribs with the money?!
Oh my God, in all our years of living, is this the first time we’ve seen a county official who doesn’t like money so much?!
In the past, any of the county magistrates in Jingnan did not work hard to get money into their own pockets! Excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, clever building of gates, what is four liang, what is dripping, what is the waste of money, what is it?
There are so many ways to use money that we can't finish it for days and nights. The county officials in other places are all the same! It is unheard of for our county officials to take the initiative to distribute money to everyone like this. This is the first time.
The people in the audience were all stunned and in disbelief. They all excitedly shouted "Master Zhu Ping'an Qingtian". They all lamented that the smoke was coming out of their ancestral graves and they met such a good magistrate. But it was a pity. I heard that the magistrate was
The county magistrate has been promoted to be the magistrate of the county, and as soon as the new magistrate is in place, the county magistrate will take office as the magistrate of the county, Si Qianshi.
While everyone was sighing, Wang Xiucai on the stage had already verified Liu Erniu's identity, and it was confirmed to be correct. Mr. Qian on the side counted two twelve taels of gold ingots and six taels of broken silver from the box, and handed them over
Liu Erniu.
After Liu Erniu received the silver reward, he still felt that it was not real. He suspected that he was dreaming and pinched his arm hard. The pain almost made him grin from the corner of his mouth to the base of his ears. Haha, it hurts. It feels good. It is not a dream.
"Liu Erniu, please count and make sure that the amount of the silver reward is correct. Then you can sign here or press your thumbprint, and then you can go down."
Mr. Zhang couldn't help but smile when he saw this, and gently tapped the silver reward booklet on the table, reminding Liu Erniu.
After all, there are more than 2,000 people in the audience waiting to receive the silver reward. This is not a small amount, and there should be no delay.
"Enough, enough."
Liu Erniu counted it once, giggled, stepped forward and pressed his fingerprints, and went down with a grin on his face.
"Zhang Tiesuo"
Master Liu pressed his merit book and continued to read.
The distribution of silver rewards was carried out in an orderly manner, and people's emotions were very high. It lasted for most of a long time before the distribution was completed. Those who died defending the city were also collected by their families. The huge amount of silver rewards allowed the people who had lost their loved ones to receive
Real pensions, pensions for the elderly, child care, etc. are also guaranteed. These silver rewards also allow the victims' spirits in heaven to be comforted.
