234: Qi vomiting blood (3)
The governor of Hejian was right when he thought about it.
)
But he is just a small sheriff in name only, how can there be so many troops to catch bandits?
He was already struggling to support the guards who decorated the appearance of the Sheriff's Mansion.
He sighed, and said in shame, "Brother Liu, I don't know something. Although Brother Yu, I also have the name of the sheriff on my head, how can I compare with you. I have no real power in my hand. If I want food, I don't have food. If I want people, I have no one." , How can we eliminate the bandits in the surrounding area? Let the people live and work in peace and contentment? I am powerless, and I have nothing to do with those thieves. If someone has food, how can they allow the bandits to breed and disturb the people?"
He also has great ambitions, hoping to be a good sheriff and benefit the common people.
However, there are too many great Buddhas in Hejian County. As a powerless sheriff, he can only be an obedient mute, squatting down for the elderly with peace of mind. The climate is formed and cannot be moved.
After hearing this, Liu She also sighed helplessly, as if she sympathized with this old classmate's experience.
After a while, Liu She showed a little hesitation on her face, and said, "You and I have known each other for a while, and we have a classmate friendship. We can't just watch you being criticized by the Meng family and ignore it. The only way out now is to catch and kill Meng." Langjun's bandits. If you are short of people, why not go to each family to borrow some people in the name of suppressing bandits for the people? No one can provide some food..."
After hearing this, the Sheriff of Hejian showed a embarrassed expression. This method can indeed solve the urgent need, but his face will be lost. The "family" Liu She said naturally refers to other noble families in Hejian County. I feel like begging.
Seeing the sheriff's hesitation, Liu She said righteously, "My little brother's house doesn't have much background. Although it has a little wealth, it's just a second wife and can't inherit the family. There's a limit to what we can do... If you don't mind, my little brother is willing to send out a hundred famous servants to help you suppress it." bandit……"
The gentry family has a big business, and there are many servants, but the servants who look after the house and the nursing home are all regulated, and the number is stable at a standard.
After all, it doesn't take too many people to look after the home. If you raise more, it is equivalent to raising an extra mouth to eat rice.
In the case of normal production, if the prefect of Hejian went out to borrow from various families, in fact, he would not be able to borrow many people.
Of course, the kind of rich and powerful family that secretly raises private soldiers is an exception.
One hundred people, this number is already very huge, and it is also very generous, how could the governor of Hejian not be shocked?
Even in the past few times to suppress the bandits, the troops dispatched were only one or two hundred.
The Sheriff of Hejian was sure, his brows relaxed, if the scene wasn't inappropriate, he would have laughed out of joy.
"Brother Yu really helped Brother Yu a lot! Regardless of whether we can catch the gang of thieves afterwards, Brother Yu will owe Brother Yu a big favor!"
Liu She also broke into a smile, and said a few words humbly, as if it was all for brotherhood.
After accepting such a great favor, the governor of Hejian naturally wanted to reciprocate.
These one hundred people, but one hundred mouths, the Liu Manor has already paid people, so we can't let them pay back the food, right?
So, he decided to visit other gentry later, and asked euphemistically if he could give them some food or not... After all, for those gentry, people are more valuable than food, and food can be used to solve the problem. It's not a big deal.
It takes energy, money and material resources to train servants. If the people who lend out suffer losses, then they will suffer a lot.
In comparison, it is more cost-effective to send people with a batch of grain.
With Liu She taking the lead, other families can't be too stingy, and they will give some food more or less.
Although it is a bit embarrassing, everything is worth it to survive this crisis.
Thinking of this, Sheriff Hejian felt better.
Jiang Pengji returned home after dealing with the follow-up matters,
Then she received a message from the concierge asking her to meet Liu She.
"What is the father's order for Huan'er?"
Jiang Pengji was a little puzzled, Liu She didn't reprimand her for what happened last night, did she?
"Wei father found you some free scammers."
Jiang Pengji had a question mark on her face, why was she taken advantage of?
Liu She took a sip of tea with a smile, and told about the visit by the Sheriff of Hejian, "There should be a hundred people in your trilogy, right? If you want, you can lend these people to the sheriff for now, tomorrow On the surface, he directs and dispatches, and you make all the decisions in the dark, you share the spoils after the bandits are suppressed, and the captured bandits, go and talk to him for your father, to clear the way..."
Previously, Jiang Pengji secretly suppressed bandits, and selected available bandits to inhale the episodes. This method was indeed good, but it was done in a wrong way. If people found their traces, it would be difficult to explain it later. Liu She wanted to use this opportunity to show Ming Lu and make an appointment with Hejian County Sheriff.
Of course, these hundred people belonged to her own daughter after all, so Liu She couldn't make the decision for her.
If Jiang Pengji was unwilling, Liu She planned to send 100 people from her own bodyguards to Hejian County Sheriff.
Jiang Pengji thought about it carefully after hearing this, and felt a little moved.
Crossing Ming Road is only one of the benefits, and the other benefit is that during the period of suppressing the bandits, all the expenses of the trilogy have been taken to the public account.
What is a public account?
The Sheriff of Hejian collected food from various families, all of which were used to raise Jiang Pengji's trilogy, and she didn't spend any of it. Although some of the booty after destroying the bandits had to be distributed by the Sheriff, she also had some of the captured bandits. More options and even other perks.
In layman's terms, it is to use money from other people's pockets to fatten up your own soldiers.
The Tuas in Hejian have more money and food. Even if these people are stingy, they will not give out any money for the sake of face. The food added together is quite impressive...Jiang Pengji thinks that they may have eaten part of it I can still move some.
"This is a natural promise. After all, the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages. The bandits near Hejian must be exterminated. In the past, they could only be done secretly. Now that the teacher is famous, someone will bear the cost... such a benefit, wouldn't it be too much not to agree? I'm sorry for myself?"
It is not easy to start from scratch. If you are not in charge of a family, you will not know how expensive it is.
Now the scale of the trilogy is still small, and when the number of people reaches thousands or even tens of thousands, with her current family background, she can't support so many people.
Therefore, it is very important to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.
Liu She's move helped her solve the problem and saved a lot of expenses.
He pursed his lips, as if he wanted to suppress the smile on his lips, but the gentle smile in his eyes betrayed his true mood.
"Since you have agreed, I will reply to the sheriff tomorrow." After Liu She finished speaking, she paused, and then asked in a low voice, "Have you cleared up the follow-up tail of Meng Yi?"
"Father, don't worry, it's already done." Jiang Pengji replied firmly.
"Father and son" looked at each other and smiled, both seeing the cunning in each other's eyes.
At this time, the news of the murder of the second son of the Meng family, Meng Bing, spread among the people at a frightening speed, as if he had wings.
The news of the civil unrest that the Meng family sent the Meng family army to try to block, also opened a hole, which was noticed by interested people.
