The people Jia Liu paid for were the Manchu team leader Yamantar, the Mongolian team leader Hai Mantai, the Ministry of Internal Affairs team leader Guilin, the Han army leader Hailanbao and a group of people in charge of the Qianfeng School of each banner.
The madam said that there were two tables in total, and the cost including food, drinks, and girls totaled 110 taels.
This price must have been painful for Jia Liu, because he only earned 162 taels after being frozen for one night. After subtracting the 40 taels distributed to his subordinates, his net income was only 122 taels.
As a result, it would cost 110 taels to pay for a meal. Rich people would not think anything of it, but Jia Liu would really feel pain.
However, Alan Paul told him about this incident when he left the camp at night.
It seems that he said it casually, but the question is, is the guard a casual person?
Therefore, Jia Liu must come to pay the bill. If there are difficulties, he must solve them. If there are no difficulties, he must solve them if he creates difficulties.
But he was reluctant to pay for it himself, so he had to resort to raising funds.
So, there was the scene at Guixiyuan.
Why choose Guixiyuan?
There are four large and small brothels in Houmayi Town.
The reason is very simple. Guixiyuan is the lowest among the four, and the consumption there is destined to be relatively cheap. It is definitely not attractive to the dandies from various banners who are accustomed to comparisons and showing off.
It was even more impossible for the group of officials leading the team to pass.
So who will go?
Surabei composed of Baoyi and domestic slaves.
If you don’t pick the soft persimmons and pinch them, why should you bite the hard ones?
What does Su La want to do with her sister Guan Jia Liu?
Having said that, it’s really none of his business!
Because Jia Liu is now not only the Butha Baitang'a of the Zhenglan Banner of the Han Army, but also the number one Butha of the Eight Banners of the Han Army.
What's the meaning?
It is the foreman among foremen, which means the same as the overlord among beggars.
However, the power has been substantially improved.
This position was obtained by Jia Liu based on his ability.
After leaving Beijing, because Wen Fu on the Jinchuan front was in a hurry to urge reinforcements, the leading minister, Xiangbai Banner Manchuria Vice-Capital Du Erjia, ordered the Jianrui Battalion and the Eight Banners teams to speed up the march and strive to reach Chengdu as soon as possible.
However, Duerjia soon discovered that the "children are worthy of use" reported to the emperor by the military aircraft department was completely nonsense. That is to say, when they first set off from the capital, the group of children could barely make a show on the horse, and quickly fought back after leaving the capital.
Original form.
Many people couldn't stand it after sitting on the horse for less than two hours. They were either doing this thing or that thing. The order of the team was also in chaos, and there were all kinds of people falling behind, which seriously affected the marching speed.
Duerjia, who hated iron but could not become steel, was helpless at this time. He knew that the emperor planned to send Tang'a to Jinchuan to train the bannermen's children, so he had to lead the Jianrui battalion to go first, and asked the leaders of each banner to arrive before the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month.
Bring people to Chengdu.
He also asked the leaders of each banner team to try to reorganize the team during the journey and not to let these bannermen's children continue to be so lazy, otherwise they will suffer big losses when they reach the Jinchuan front line.
How to rectify it?
The Manchu team leader Yamantar, the Mongolian team leader Hai Mantai, the Ministry of Internal Affairs team leader Guilin, and the Han army leader Hailanbao are four people in total. It will definitely be too late and useless to strengthen training by improvising. The only feasible way is to rectify military discipline.
Let these young men who have not yet adapted to their new status at least know the rules of the army and have some airs to look like.
In this way, I can give some explanation to Duerjia after arriving in Sichuan.
The corruption of military discipline does not mean that these bannermen's sons burned, killed, looted and were lawless after leaving the capital, but that every time they camped at night, they would sneak out of the military camp with their entourage Su La and fool around in nearby towns.
Many of them even came back at dawn. They were all so drunk that they had to be carried not only to get on their horses, but also to get into the car.
If this continues, what will happen?
Must be strictly rectified!
Guilin, the leader of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, suggested that each flag should take turns to send people to check the night duty, and any Baitang who was caught going out without permission would be punished.
Although Guilin is young, he is the nephew of the current imperial concubine. His proposal was unanimously approved by the other three team leaders.
On the first day, the Manchurian Zhenghuang Banner was responsible for checking the night, and the Xianghuang Banner was responsible for guarding. As a result, the children in the banner complained a lot on the second day and were unwilling to continue working.
It’s so painful.
Needless to say, that night was really unbearable. It was windy and rainy, and it felt like I was cutting my face and neck with a fucking knife.
The four team leaders continued to negotiate, and finally came to the common conclusion that the Eight Banners of the Han Army would be responsible for guarding the night inspection.
After another big fish eating small shrimps, the Han army's two red flags and two blue flags became the final candidates.
Who puts them at the bottom of the Eight Banners contempt chain?
The two red flags and the blue flag that were ineffective in the "protest" had no choice but to go to work. As expected, they were basically dealing with ghosts. They could hold on for a while in the first half of the night, but they were sure to sneak back to sleep in the second half of the night.
When it was Jia Liu's turn to start carrying out the mission with his own flag Sula, he behaved very seriously.
Because he found this was an opportunity to make money.
Therefore, on the first day of night duty, a group of Baitang'a and a group of Sura who were fooling around in the camp were caught, and then they were imprisoned and escorted to the front of the four leaders.
The two leaders of the Manchu and Mongolian troops felt that Jia Liu, the small foreman of the Han Army's Zhenglan Banner, was making a fuss out of nothing and causing trouble. Everyone was just coping with it, just doing it superficially and intimidating, but no one was really caught.
It wasn't until Jia Liu suggested that those who didn't abide by the camp rules could be "fined" that the four team leaders looked at each other and unanimously expressed their approval.
It can not only ensure that those gangsters will not sneak out of the camp, but also get an extra sum of money. Even Guilin, who has no shortage of money, is happy.
On the spot, Alan Bao decided that Jia Liu should be the first Butha of the Eight Banners of the Han Army and was given the privilege of searching and arresting people outside the camp.
As a result, Jia Liu took his men to the battle in turn, and seized more than 300 people one after another. He handed over the four leaders and fined them more than 2,000 taels of silver. He and his men received more than 1,000 taels, which effectively curbed unhealthy trends in the army.
Evil spirit.
Although he ensured their enthusiasm by giving money to his fellow worshiper Tang A and Su La who participated in the operation, and ensured that he had the power to "suppress" the arrested gang, Jia Liu did not want to reap the benefits. After all, this matter was too offending.
.
In particular, he suggested that fines be set according to the four levels of Manchuria, Mongolia, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Han Army, with Manchuria being the heaviest and Han Army being the lowest.
The reason is that Manchuria, Mongolia's Eight Banners and the Ministry of Internal Affairs' Baitang A Tong Sula are richer than the Han army, so they can get more silver by imposing heavy fines on them.
But this made the Jia Guizi on the white horse become the common enemy of Manchuria, Mongolia, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Except for the Zhenglan Banner who directly benefited from the Han army, the other seven banners did not like the Jia Zi Liu who was always eyeing their pockets. They thought that
This guy is the loser of the four team leaders.
If it weren't for the fact that the four major team leaders attached great importance to Jia Liu, especially the leader of the Han Army Banner, Alan Bao, who received an extra tribute in private, he would show his respect for Jia Liu no matter what the occasion, and would call him to talk to him at every turn.
In short, he looked like he was one of Alan Bao's men. I'm afraid Jia Liu would be ambushed even when he went to the hut.
For the sake of safety, Jia Liu now has to take at least three or two people to watch outside when he goes to the latrine. If there is any sign of trouble, he will pull up his pants and run away.
Because the investigation operation that lasted for several days was so effective, after arriving in Shanxi, few people dared to leave the camp privately.
Jia Liu also relaxed appropriately and no longer wandered around like the previous few days.
His main purpose was to get close to Alan Bao, Hai Mantai, Guilin and the others. He did not really want to help these people make money. Now that his purpose had been initially achieved, there was no need to quarrel with the Eight Banners "fellows".
However, he wanted to stop, but Master Hai refused to stop.
No, a casual remark in the evening forced Jia Liu to go into battle and become a villain again.
But Jia Liu also saved a hand. This time he didn't pick up the Tang'a, but went straight to the Sula.
Humans can't really get things done.
.........
After paying the bills to the "leaders", Jia Liu did not deliberately stay and wait for the leaders to come out. Instead, he went out directly and took Yang Zhi back.
"Master, you came out so soon?"
On the way back, Yang Zhi thought about it again and again, and finally couldn't help asking about the confusion in his heart.
Based on his understanding of the young master, it shouldn't be so fast.
Jia Liu turned to look at Yang Zhi: "Don't think blindly, I'm going in to do business."
"Is there anything serious to do in the kiln?"
Yang Zhi expressed confusion.
"Pay someone else's bill."
Jia Liu paused for a moment and pointed towards the brothel in the distance, "It's your young master who I just took advantage of."
Yang Zhi suddenly realized: "The adults are inside?"
Jia Liu muttered: "Who else could it be if it wasn't them?"
"Didn't you say you are not allowed to leave the camp without permission?"
Jia Liu looked at Yang Zhi meaningfully: "Shuan Zhu, do you think I will abide by my own rules, young master?"
"of course not!"
Yang Zhi blurted out.
"That's alright, the rules are always set for the people below, understand?" Jia Liu shrank his neck, so damn naive.
The master and servant walked away for a while, and Yang Zhi suddenly became worried and said: "Master, I'm worried that if we continue like this, we will be dealt with sooner or later."
"I know."
Jia Liu knew that Shuan Zhu was talking about blackmailing the Eight Banners disciples, especially the Manqi group.
"I know young master, but you still do this... Still do this?" Yang Zhi muttered.
Jia Liu shook his head: "There is nothing I can do. Who told me, young master, that I am short of money?"
"What do you need so much money for? We are going to fight..." Yang Zhi was worried that the young master had too much money but no people.
"Idiot, why should we fight when we have money?"
“Why don’t we have to fight if we have money?”
"You are so stupid,"
Jia Liu was so angry that he kicked Yang Zhi, "If we have money, we can pay others to come... If not, can we spend money to buy our lives?"
"oh."
Shuan Zhu seemed to understand but not quite.
Jia Liu was too lazy to pay attention to him. Since he was a child, he knew that Shuan Zhu's thinking was half a beat slower than ordinary people.
Continue back to camp.
"Shuan Zhu, if anyone gets in trouble with us in the future, we will find ways to kill him."
