Qin Official

Chapter 158 Receiving Money

"Master asked me to return to Xianyang immediately after completing my official duties and explain the matter clearly in front of him."

Chen Wujiu sighed. Two months after his letter was sent, just when he thought it had disappeared, the master finally replied to him, but only called him back to Xianyang for an interview.

Heifu was not too disappointed. As he had expected, Xia Wuqi would not run away excitedly just because an ordinary disciple wrote him a letter on the war front and the so-called "advice" from an Anlu small village leader. He went to Qin Wangzheng, a king whom Wei Liao called "a young man with a little kindness but a tiger-like heart" to give him advice.

That kind of reckless thing was not what Xia Wuqie would do.

The person who best understood King Qin's physical condition was neither his favorite concubine nor his children, but the imperial doctor who stayed with King Qin all day long, preparing his meals and diagnosing his pulse.

This job seems to be glorious, but in fact it is dangerous. It is like looking after the teeth of a tiger. If you are not careful, you may die from the tiger's mouth. Every year, many imperial doctors are executed for offending the King of Qin.

However, Xia Wuqu was able to be chosen by the King of Qin and always had him serve by his side. He has been the "Imperial Physician Order" as the head of the Qin Palace's imperial doctors. This was not only because of the medicine basket thrown at Jingke, but also his Be careful what you say and do.

So Chen Wujiu had no choice but to say to Master Hei: "After I have settled the Wei people who were assigned from Daliang to Waihuang, I will set off back to Xianyang with the army. At that time, I will demonstrate the wound binding method in front of Master, and then I sincerely request you to write a letter on your behalf to implement this good policy in the Qin army. Of course, I will never miss Hei Fu’s contribution.”

"In this case, Dr. Chen is here to help." Hei Fu was not too disappointed. This kind of thing that can only be done by others' hands cannot be rushed. I am lucky to get it, but I will lose my life. Anyway, he will be able to obtain the title of doctor in a few months. This is the right way to be promoted. The merits are there, and there is no need to look at anyone's face.

While Chen Wujiu was talking to Hei Fu here, the first batch of refugees from Daliang had arrived. Chen Wujiu could only bow his hands to Hei Fu, and promised to have a detailed discussion before going over to greet Qin soldiers. The refugees were stopped and examined one by one...

It was already dusk now, and Heifu and the others were going to rest outside for the night and live in the military camp.

It was night, and the Waihuang military camp was celebrating the victory in the battle to destroy Wei, and was holding a catering event. Wine and wine, which were not allowed to appear on weekdays, were also distributed to each camp in a grand manner, and even meat...

Heifu also went to Yang Xiong's tent to attend the banquet. By the time he returned to the tent after drinking a lot of low-alcohol wine and patting his belly, everyone had already finished their dinner.

Ji Ying was a little restless. He kept standing up and looking outside. When Hei Fu came back, he was overjoyed and said to him: "Hei Fu... Youyou, I heard that the Waihuang City is very lively tonight. Especially the female side!"

As soon as Ji Ying wagged his tail, Hei Fu knew what his intention was. He was full and warm and thinking about sex.

But it is true as he said, after becoming the Waihuang Order, the Waihuang Zhangxian Xia used the underworld thinking to recruit young knights and merchants, making the Waihuang market more prosperous, and even the sensual industry was flourishing. Quite a few women from Zheng, Wei, and Daliang make a living here and earn money from the knights.

To be a chivalrous person, you must not only have wine and meat, but also be paired with beauty. This is also the reason why foreign porn attracts light heroes so much.

After the Qin army arrived here, almost all the Qingxia people in the city ran away, but the Nulu only remained silent for a few days before reopening. This time their new guest is Qin Zu, who is far away from home and has not seen a woman for several months...

For the daughter-in-law, whose money is not earned?

Ji Ying had longed for Waihuang Nulu because of its reputation. He rubbed his hands and said, "We just finished the war in February and had no chance to go. I passed by here a few days ago and had to prepare to lure the enemy, but I didn't go." .Now that the war is over, the Wei State has also perished, and we have received a lot of bounties in Daliang. Do you think you can..."

"Go if you want."

Heifu smiled and did not scold him as usual. The battle was over and everyone's spirits were relaxed a lot. Besides, the people under his command almost never committed any crime in Hufu Township. This was not only due to their self-discipline in the military, but also because Heifu allowed them to go to the countryside every half month to have a good time with their daughter-in-law.

So he took out a thin piece of gold cake, weighing about one tael, and threw it to Ji Ying: "Take a few paoze with you. This time it's my treat. Come back quickly after finishing your work. Don't argue with others and cause trouble!"

Ji Ying was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately called out to several other people, but Hei Fu did not get up.

"Want to go on a tour?"

"Someone has to stay and watch the rewards." Heifu pointed to the large wooden boxes in the tent.

The reason why these few of them stayed in the Daliang military camp for a few more days was to wait for the reward money to be distributed. According to the figures on the previous wanted order, a hundred gold coins were obtained for capturing the Zhou Market. Since the four villages fought together, Heifu and the others were allocated 40 gold coins in the end. In addition, there are 20 gold for capturing Zhang Er's wife and son, which is a huge sum of money.

Except for the 20 gold that Heifu could get alone, which he kept in his pocket, the other 40 gold were exchanged for half a tael, which was more than 20,000 yuan. He pulled a whole cart and planned to distribute it to the soldiers of the camp when he returned.

In addition to leaving someone to look after the money, there is another reason. Hei Fu's temperament in his previous life was that he had a mental disorder, and he would rather deal with it himself than mess with his daughter.

"Chen Sheng isn't going either?"

Ji Ying looked at Chen Ping again, and Chen Ping quickly waved his hand and declined.

So after a while, only Hei Fu and Chen Ping were left in the camp.

"Just help me figure out how to divide the money."

Heifu asked Chen Ping to serve as an accountant to help him settle his accounts.

"There are more than 20,000 yuan, and I plan to distribute 5,000 of them to Pao Ze who died in the battle."

Heifu and his group took on the heavy task of attacking during the Battle of Waihuang. Five people were killed in the battle, and two more died due to injuries. A few days ago, they lured Zhou City, and three more people were killed in the pursuit in the woods. .

As early as two months ago, Heifu had made an agreement with everyone that beheadings in the village would be given priority to the war dead, so these ten people were all given posthumous titles, which allowed their families to enjoy the benefits of fields and houses. But Heifu still decided to give each person a reward of 500 yuan!

This is not considered compensation from the state, but a gift from him as the head of the village. Although he can get the land and house, after all, he has lost a major labor force. This money may be able to help those families tide over the difficulties earlier, which can be regarded as a bit of relief for him. .

"You are truly benevolent and righteous."

After Chen Ping wrote it down, he expressed his admiration. If he had shared money with the soldiers during the war to win people's hearts so that they could die, but now that the war is over and everyone is about to return home, if Hei Fu can still do this, he really has such a temperament. . Such military officials are what all soldiers are willing to follow.

"If this matter can spread, it will be praised by thousands of people in his hometown..."

The remaining money will be divided among the remaining forty people. People with high titles and those who participated in the battle to lure the enemy will get more. After all, it only costs three to four hundred per person.

"Of course, there's also your share."

With that said, Heifu took out another five taels of gold and placed it in front of Chen Ping.

Chen Ping was stunned and quickly pushed the gold back: "What are you doing?"

"You and I worked together to lure Huang Qingxia out. You didn't want to share the credit afterward, but I can't keep the reward alone. I hope Chen Sheng can accept it."

Chen Ping was still about to refuse, but Hei Fu said: "I can guess a little bit of Chen Ping's thoughts that day. If you get a title because of this, you may be slandered by the township party, saying that you helped Qin to abuse and killed Wei people. I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the countryside in the future. But you know how to distribute this bounty and I know it. No third person will see it. Chen Sheng might as well accept it. Firstly, it can subsidize the family, and secondly, it can express my feelings. gratitude……"

Looking at the golden cakes on the table, although Chen Ping wanted to refuse, he swallowed his words in the end.

When faced with the temptation of a title, Chen Ping was very calm. He first considered his reputation in the countryside, but when faced with money, he became a little less calm.

Like most children from poor families, Chen Ping attaches great importance to money. If he can get so much gold and return home, he will be able to realize what he said to his brother and sister-in-law that day, "to support himself by his own efforts"!

He is not a hypocritical person. Since Hei Fu said it sincerely, Chen Ping no longer refused and said with cupped hands: "Since You You said so, Chen Ping will accept it calmly."

He put the five small gold cakes in his hand and said with emotion: "With this money, I can also collect the money and silk to propose marriage..."

"Propose marriage?" Heifu's eyes lit up: "Could it be that Chen Ping already has someone he likes? Is this why you didn't want to marry a daughter just now?"

Chen Ping smiled and said: "Of course, Chen Ping already has a good match in his heart, and now he has the money to propose marriage, but he still lacks a highly respected person to be the matchmaker for me."

After saying this, he bowed to Hei Fu and said, "I wonder if you can help me fight?"

"Fake?" Heifu was of low education and couldn't understand.

Chen Ping quickly changed his explanation: "Just to be a matchmaker for me."

These days, you cannot propose marriage in person, you have to find a matchmaker. The poem says: "What about cutting down the tree? The ax cannot be defeated, but how about getting a wife? The matchmaker cannot do it." It means how to cut down the tree? It is impossible without an ax: how to marry the wife? It’s impossible without a matchmaker.

It is best for the matchmaker to be an official or an elder, so as to show that they attach great importance to the marriage and make it difficult for the other party to refuse.

Heifu didn't expect this, but then he thought about it. To be a matchmaker these days, you need a very close relationship, either an elder or a friend. Even though the two of them have different paths in the future, with their friendship as a matchmaker for Chen Ping, maybe they can come in handy in the future...

The world is in chaos and the future is unknown. In addition to doing his job as a Qin official, there is no harm in making more friends and keeping more friendships.

So Hei Fu happily agreed, and then asked curiously: "I wonder whose lady Chen Ping has fallen in love with?"

Chen Ping smiled and said: "The daughter and grandson of the Zhang family from this hometown."

"Ms. Zhang..." Hei Fu shook his head. He knew that Zhang Bo had two granddaughters, one was already married and the other was yet to be married. But the problem is that although the girl is only sixteen years old, she is as tall and fat as her grandfather Zhang Bo.

And after what happened last time, Heifu had a grudge against Zhang Bo and asked him to be a matchmaker? Mostly to blow.

So Heifu shook his head: "If you ask me to propose marriage to Zhang Bo on Chen Ping's behalf, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive."

Chen Ping laughed and said, "You You misunderstood. The one I want to marry is not Zhang Bo's granddaughter."

He stopped laughing and said firmly, "It's Zhang Fu's daughter and grandson!"

"Zhang Fu's granddaughter?"

Hei Fu suddenly remembered Zhong Ming's gossip about "one woman defeats five husbands". He was slightly surprised and had to look at Chen Ping again.

This person has a unique taste, is extremely bold, and is really very admirable...
