"I'll think about it again and make a decision in a few days." Wei Fei thought for a while and said to Wei Tu. Although he could not understand the "Heavenly Book" called "Five Yuan Yun Spirit Body" before, he could still guess that it was valuable. If he hadn't understood Wei Tu's character, he would most likely have hidden this secret book on his body, and then slowly looked for a way to interpret it. Now, with the addition of Kou Liang and Fu Zhizhou, he feels that the risks are somewhat uncontrollable. "This is the second brother's business. Third brother, I'm just making a suggestion." Wei Tu knew how to measure things. After hearing this, he nodded and agreed with Wei Fei's decision without forcing him to do so. … Three days later. Lieutenant Xu County announced that he had captured several of the remnants of Wu Yunlou in Siyang Town and its surrounding villages, and the remaining remnants were still on the run. He hoped that the people would help the government to capture the rebels. Then, in front of all the people, he chopped off the heads of several Wuyunlou martial arts masters on the grain drying field.
The people watching were silent, while the gentry standing in the crowd were trembling. In the evening of that day, the gentry and wealthy households who had previously been "inflexible" and resisted law enforcement raids immediately pushed their wheelbarrows and sent their family's wealth to the military camp in Liujiabao. "I don't have the exclusive use of these properties. Everyone becomes an official just to get promoted and get rich. I will take 50% of it, and the rest will be distributed to you according to the rules..." Possessions were piled up in the living room. Lieutenant Xu County summoned all the military attaches in. He glanced at the expressions on each military attache's face, then weighed the jade Ruyi in his hand and said with a smile. Among this group of military attachés, there were naturally Wei Tu and Wei Fei. The two looked at each other calmly and nodded. Although the money in front of them was ill-gotten wealth, obtained by Xu County Lieutenant blackmailing the gentry and common people in Siyang Town, they could not change the overall situation... They would not take it for free. In addition, if they claim to be Qingliu military attachés and do not take this money, they will definitely be regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh by Lieutenant Xu County and other military attaches. It is detrimental to both the future and one's own life. Again. They are miscellaneous officials and are not qualified to join the ranks of the Qingliu. "Thank you, Mr. Xu." After a few breaths, all the military attachés looked happy and thanked Xu County Lieutenant. When Lieutenant Xu County saw this, he nodded with satisfaction, turned his gaze to Wei Tu and another middle-aged military attaché, and said, "Envoy of the Wei Army and Envoy of the Chu Army, you two will be responsible for distributing these properties this time." The words fell. Wei Tu and the middle-aged military attaché clasped their fists and accepted the order, and began to decide how to distribute the property based on the rank of the military attache in the room and the contribution they made to the Liu Family Fort. An hour later, the two of them worked together to distribute the property in the house. All the military attaches were satisfied and did not find fault with Wei Tu and the Chu envoys on the issue of distribution. As the "Capital Military Envoy", Wei Tu also received more than forty taels of money. In addition to the property looted when he invaded Liujiapu, Wei Tu came to Siyang Town this time and gained more than 130 taels of silver.
This money was enough to pay off the foreign debts he had owed before, and there was still a lot of surplus. "Tomorrow we will break out of the village, leave Siyang Town, and return to the county seat." When the show was over, Lieutenant Xu County said to all the military attachés. But just when Wei Tu was about to leave the living room, Xu County Lieutenant called Wei Tu and asked him to stay for the time being. Wei Tu was slightly startled and stood in the hall. After the military attaches left one by one, Lieutenant Xu County took a piece of gold from his pile of belongings and stuffed it into Wei Tu's hand. "Envoy of the Guards, you have made two great contributions this time. You forgot this when dividing the wealth for yourself. This is not a good habit." Lieutenant Xu Xian smiled. "This..." Wei Tu was surprised when he saw the ingot of gold stuffed into his hand. One tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver. This ingot of gold is about five taels, which means that this ingot of gold is equal to fifty taels of silver. This is a lot of money. Equivalent to the share assigned to a military attache. "Thank you, Mr. Xu." After thinking for a moment, Wei Tu gathered his thoughts and bowed to Xu County Lieutenant with clasped fists. This time, when he distributed the property, it was not that he didn't know that he had made two great contributions. It was just because he was worried that giving him too much money would turn against the Chu army envoys at the same level as him, so he received the same gift as the Chu army envoys. of silver money. "Follow Xu, the Guardsmen will not have to be too careful in the army in the future..." Xu County Lieutenant walked up to Wei Tu, patted Wei Tu on the shoulder, and said this with a smile. Then, before Wei Tu came to his senses and understood the meaning of these words, Xu County Lieutenant waved his hand and signaled Wei Tu to retreat. … "Could it be that Lieutenant Xu County has a different ambition?" "Are you showing favor to me now? Do you want to accept me as your confidant?" After walking out of the living room, Wei Tu smacked his lips at Xu County Lieutenant's words for a while and thought about it. This time, it was a rule in the Xiang army to distribute money to a group of military attachés. Lieutenant Xu could not take all the benefits. Regardless of money, next time Xu County Lieutenant wants to command the Qingshan County Xiang Army with a wave of his arms, it will not be so easy. All the military attaches were dissatisfied. It was difficult for the Xu county captain to command the army. However, after the military attachés left, Xu County Lieutenant secretly gave him money again, which immediately changed the meaning. This means directly wooing him and wanting to make him a confidant. Buying military morale and winning over military attachés are taboos in the military!
Even if Shangguan knew about the previous division of wealth, he would lightly reveal it. After all, the imperial court did not allocate much food and salary for the attack on Wuyunlou branch... But if the latter is added, the meaning immediately changes. Everyone can see that Xu Xianwei's intention is not simple. "not my business." "It's only fifty taels of silver, it's not worth risking your life for." Wei Tu touched the golden bump on his waist and decided to just eat the sugar coating without the cannonballs. The ingot of gold that Xu County Lieutenant gave him was ill-gotten wealth, and he took it without any psychological burden. I really want to serve. That is also to serve the Zheng court and the people of Siyang Town. What does it have to do with Xu County Lieutenant? Furthermore, given his identity and status, he was only given fifty taels of silver to win him over, which was far from enough. … The next day, early morning. After Xu County Lieutenant counted the soldiers, he ordered the soldiers to withdraw from the village, leave Siyang Town, and return to the county seat. When the Xiang army left Siyang Town and reached the mountains where they stayed before the war... At this time, Wei Tu heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from Siyang Town. He sighed secretly, shook his head, and without looking further, he rode away from the mountain and followed closely the large army. The process of leaving Siyang Town and returning to Qingshan County went smoothly without any twists and turns. After returning to the county seat. When Wei Tu returned home, he took off his fine armor, washed himself, and then went to Huang's house with thirty taels of silver in his hand to pay a visit. "Thirty taels?" "You got enough so quickly?" When Wei Tu heard Wei Tu's intention, he looked surprised and couldn't believe it. Thirty taels of silver, according to Wei Tu's salary, it would take three or four years to save enough without eating or drinking. And how long has it been since she borrowed the money from Wei Tu? Less than two years.
