Chapter 1,109 The current situation of the four major bandits, Jeju Prefectures pursuit of thieves

"The pearls, agates and jade my lord brought back are not included, but only the gold and silver, totaling 560,000 gold!"

Qiao Lie turned around with his abacus and spent an entire afternoon calculating Su Mingzhe's income from this trip.

This basically means that everyone who went out brought back five thousand gold and silver coins.

The leaders and leaders all showed happy expressions. With this much money, Liangshan's plan to accumulate grain can continue to be implemented.

Su Mingzhe first smiled with everyone, and then said lightly:

"Military advisor, transfer this gold and silver to the general ledger and purchase food, horses, and armor as soon as possible! Keep those pearls, agates, and jade stones, and find an opportunity to go to Bianliang to exchange them for gold and silver before using them!"

"My lord is wise!"

When everyone saw that Su Mingzhe didn't take anything away from it, they couldn't help but admire him.

As a person with lofty ideals, how could he not like this kind of leader who is frivolous in wealth and has lofty ambitions?

After everyone got together.

When Su Mingzhe returned to the backyard, the girls were also very happy.

At least this time, the man didn't bring us any more sisters.

When the girls were happy, they accompanied the man on a ridiculous trip.

On the second day.

Su Mingzhe held on to his strength, pushed aside the lotus-rooted arms and legs that were entangled around him, and came to the Juyi Hall to discuss matters with the leaders.

Like Su Mingzhe, everyone didn't sleep well last night.

However, unlike Su Mingzhe who was trapped in the gentle village, the leaders mainly held a large-scale celebration banquet and drank until midnight, so they could not get a good rest.

Su Mingzhe sat down with everyone, took a sip of tea, and then asked slowly:

"Brother Zhu Gui, yesterday you said that the imperial court has increased the lacquer tax on various roads in the south of the Yangtze River?"

"good!"

When Zhu Gui talked about this, there was a hint of resentment on his face:

"Originally, someone proposed to increase the personal tax (population tax) on Xisi Fourth Road in Beijing, but it was rejected. Later, someone proposed to increase the lacquer tax on various roads in the south!"

Qiao Lie was born in the south. After hearing this, his face showed hatred:

"The imperial court first set up a flower and stone tax in the south, and then a transportation tax. Now the Dog Emperor has set up a lacquer tax just for the sake of enjoyment. This imperial court really treats the people of the south as aliens and is squeezing them to death!"

Su Mingzhe did not focus on this, but smiled slightly and said:

"In this case, it is impossible to say that Manichae Fang La will be forced to rebel in advance!"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked!

rebel!

This word is really refreshing for everyone!

Once Fang La rebels, the court's attention will definitely be diverted, and by then Liangshan will be able to develop further.

Su Mingzhe asked again:

"What's the current situation of Tian Hu and Wang Qing?"

Zhu Gui quickly reported:

"There is little rain in Hebei in the first half of the year, so I am afraid that the field production will be reduced. Tian Hu will probably attack the state capital in the second half of the year to survive this drought! As for Wang Qing, he is also keen on selling private salt, and there is not much movement!"

"Wang Qing is too timid. As long as it doesn't stop him from making money, I'm afraid he has no intention of rebelling!"

"After the drought, there is a high chance of a locust plague, and we in Jingdong and Jingdong will definitely not have an easy time!"

Su Mingzhe discussed it with everyone, and finally told everyone to keep a low profile, continue to save money and develop silently.

Everyone knows the principle of shooting the first bird.

Seizing Liang Zhongshu's birth date will at most provoke an encirclement and suppression by the state capital.

If you dare to raise the banner of rebellion, the imperial army may arrive in an instant.

Liangshan has not yet developed to the point where it can directly face the imperial army.

It's July in the blink of an eye.

The news that the second batch of birth certificates transported by Liang Zhongshu had been robbed by seven or eight date thieves reached Bianliang City.

After Cai Jing got angry, he issued a decree to Jeju and ordered the governor of Jeju to solve the case within a time limit and recover the lost 100,000 birthday cards.

After receiving the decree, the governor of Jeju looked gloomy and ugly. When he returned to the back house, he cursed angrily:

"You damn thief, can't you commit crimes in Dongping Mansion or Daming Mansion?"

When his wife saw that her man was angry, she asked why and said with a nonchalant face:

"Why are you so confused, husband? If the Grand Master can pin the case on you, can't you continue to pin it down?"

The prefect's wife's words awakened the dreamer.

"Well...what Madam said makes sense, what she says makes sense!"

The governor of Jeju quickly issued a pass and ordered people to be sent to Yuncheng County. He ordered Shi Wenbin, the magistrate of Yuncheng County, to catch the thieves and retrieve the 100,000 birthday card within ten days, otherwise he will bear the consequences!

Poor Yuncheng County Magistrate Shi Wenbin, misfortune fell from the sky, and he could only place the responsibility on the people below him.

The commanders Song Jiang, Dutou Lei Heng, and Zhu Dian received the order and looked at each other, but they could only lead people to search around for information.

Fortunately, these three people are all veterans in handling cases.

Soon, based on some clues, they found the hotel where Chao Gai and others stayed pretending to be jujube vendors.

After questioning, the three people unanimously concluded that the crime was committed by a local.

Bai Sheng, the day rat in the group of eight who committed the crime, did not listen to Chao Gai at all. After receiving more than 10,000 yuan of money, he immediately went to find women and go to gambling houses to make money.

And this Bai Sheng was unlucky. He was jealous of losing, so he ignored it, and finally the traces were leaked.

After Lei Heng caught Bai Sheng, he excitedly took him back to the county government and whipped him for two days.

Bai Sheng could not bear the punishment, so he recognized Chao Gai and other accomplices.

"broken!"

When the three of them heard that the main culprit who robbed the birthday card was Chao Gai, the King of Pagoda, they immediately felt that they were in great trouble.

This Chao Gai always put wealth over justice, and he had a great reputation in Yuncheng, Jeju, and even on the entire east and west roads of Beijing.

All three of them had close contacts with Chao Gai.

At this time, naturally no one wanted to arrest Chao Gai.

In desperation, the three of them began to dawdle.

Seeing the opportunity, Song Jiang ran to Dongxi Village overnight to report the news.

Later, Zhu Tong released the water to make way.

In the end, Lei Heng simply pretended to be blind and did not recognize Chao Gai.

At this moment, Chao Gai and Wu Yong found the three heroes of the Ruan family who had not yet received the news, and fled directly into the Babailiang Mountain Water Pond.

The news spread back to Yuncheng County.

When Shi Wenbin heard that the thieves had escaped, he had no choice but to write a document describing the details and asking the state government to send an army to Liangshan to suppress the bandits:

"Next year, when my three-year term expires, I will be transferred out of Jeju through connections no matter what!"

The governor of Jeju received the document from Shi Wenbin and learned that the thief had surrendered to the Yangshan bandits. He was so angry that he threw a lot of porcelain.

However, the culprit has been identified.

The encirclement and suppression of the Liangshan bandits must be put on the agenda.

I remembered that last year, the Military Supervisor mentioned that he wanted to train the navy.

The governor of Jeju took it for granted that after one year had passed, the navy should have achieved results after a year of training.

Therefore, the governor of Jeju called the military commander and asked him to go into Liangshan to suppress the bandits.

The soldiers and horses were trapped and unable to escape, so they could only plead:

"Master Taishou, since the war last year, the Liangshan bandits have been recruiting troops and horses with great momentum. I would like to ask you to allow the regiment to train troops and horses to fight together!"

Huang An, who had been silently pretending to be dead, suddenly turned pale when he heard that the Military Supervisor was dragging him along to seek death:

Thank you to your whole family!

The Governor of Jeju looked at Huang An, remembering that this man broke his leg to resist his orders last year, and nodded directly in agreement with the proposal of the Military Superintendent:

"Huang An, in this battle, you must fully cooperate with the governor's deployment, and you must not act without authorization. If you fail to defeat the thieves because of your disobedience to the general's orders, I will definitely send you to Salmon Island!"

"The last general takes command!"

Huang An agreed with a grimace.

The supervisor of the soldiers and horses pulled a man with a back, immediately went back to gather the troops and horses, and sent people to collect thousands of small boats near the water mooring, and then cautiously approached Liangshan.
