Dragon blood bodyguard of the beauty president

Chapter 3744 Doomsday Chaos
After the ten governors left, Gao Lian stayed alone.

Tong Guan took a sip of his wine and asked him, "What does Captain Gao think of these generals?"

Gao Qiu didn't know what he meant, so he cupped his hands and said in a perfunctory manner, "All the generals are strong and loyal people who serve the country. If they work hard to suppress the thieves, the rebel army will undoubtedly be defeated."

Tong Guan sneered, "Why, are you still talking to me like this?"

"The subordinate dare not."

Gao Qiu hurriedly bowed in embarrassment.

Tong Guan said, "You heard it just now, these people are people who can't afford it early. If they don't give them what they want, they won't really contribute to the court."

Gao Qiu wondered, "But envoy, we are really short of food and grass now, and we really can't get it out?"

Tong Guan said, "It's all about human effort. If you don't have food and grass, you can find a way to borrow it from the people! After the victory in the war and the economic recovery in Jiangnan, it will be over if you return it to the people? Look at Jiangnan, which is now in a state of waste, and there are vacancies everywhere. You can discuss it with Wang Fu and Li Bangyan. If it doesn’t work, you can donate officials to raise money! A county magistrate is 30 gold, and a prefect is [-] gold. Locally, all official positions, big or small, can be sold. What kind of county magistrate, The chief secretary and the county lieutenant, what kind of handsome secretary, constitutional secretary, and Cao secretary. As long as the price is right, I believe that there are still many rich people who are willing to spend money to donate an official position. As long as the Taiwei is willing to use his head, the money and food will be returned. Isn't it easy to catch?"

If Gao Qiu saw the sun through the clouds, his mind instantly sobered up, and he cupped his fists and said to Tong Guan with sincere admiration, "The envoy is wise! With the envoy's advice, the heart of the low-ranking officer suddenly opened up a lot. Don't worry, the envoy needs food and grass. , Humble Job helped them raise all of them within a week."

Tong Guan nodded and said, "It's up to the Taiwei. This battle is related to the lifeline of my Song Dynasty. The Taiwei must go all out. If we give up, you know the end, and I'm afraid we will be dragged to the end." Caishikou was beheaded on the street."

"The subordinate understands!"

Gao Lian wiped the cold sweat off his head, naturally he knew the importance of this war.

The rebel army is playing the banner of the Qing emperor's side, and that is to point the finger at them.

Either they died, or Song Gongming died.

This battle is divided into battles and life and death.

After Gao Qiu retired, he immediately discussed with Wang Fu and Li Bangyan about raising food and grass.

Wang Fu and Li Bangyan were worried about this matter, but after hearing Gao Qiu's words, their hearts suddenly became clear.

Tong Guan said that they don't have to worry about anything when they do things.

The two discussed with Gao Qiu, and immediately called officials from various prefectures and counties to the scene to put down the matter of donating officials and raising food.

When the officials heard this, they didn't expect such a good thing, that they could be promoted with money?
Those present here don't want to go further.

Moreover, there is a huge place where you can reach out.As long as you fiddle with the accounts a little, you can immediately reap a large amount of benefits.

The three of Gao Qiu made allocations to each state capital according to the population and acres of each state capital.

The larger the place and the larger the population, the more grain and grass to pay.

The population is small, relatively small.

All the state government officials were overwhelmed, and hurriedly reported to Gao Qiu that the population and household registration in the south of the Yangtze River had long been different from the original ones because of the years of war in the south of the Yangtze River.

Now the fields are barren, no one has cultivated them, and there is no way to harvest so much food.

Gao Qiu didn't care about this, he warned the crowd, "Masters, please be quiet. I'm just passing on the decree, and I can't make any decisions with you adults. I hope you adults will implement these apportionments seriously. It is related to the great cause of banditry suppression. Sloppy. Who can't complete the task, I not only want your black hat, but also your head, can everyone hear clearly?"

"The subordinate understands!"

"The next official promises to complete the task!"

"The officer knows!"

"..."

The officials swallowed their saliva, complained secretly, and bit the bullet to make a promise with Gao Qiu.

After the meeting was over, all the officials dispersed.

They returned to their respective cities, and immediately called their subordinates to double the tasks given by Gao Lian.

After a hard toss, they can't suffer at all, at least they have to charge half of it.

Only in this way can he have the money to find Gao Lian to donate to the official, and go one step further.

They also convened local wealthy businessmen and gentry, and released the news that the imperial court wanted to donate officials.

These local famous families, wealthy businessmen and gentry have money in their hands, but they suffer from not being born as Jinshi, so they cannot hold official positions in the court.

Now that there is such a good opportunity, many people really moved their minds.

All of a sudden, wealthy families from various state capitals responded one after another.

Some people donate to magistrates, some donate to magistrates, some donate to magistrates, and all of them are officials with integrity.

Those with less money below also involved small officials in various prefectures and counties.

Although it is not a serious control, it is a petty official who is iron-clad, and an official with flowing water.

The most powerful people in a place are often not the officials, but these small officials distributed in various yamen.

They really control the financial and military power of a place, and they are inextricably linked with wealthy and wealthy businessmen.

The people above took action, and the people below were not idle.

All households, villages and forts have all been assigned.

Every household has to contribute money and food.

If there is no money and food, then people will be sent out, and they will be arrested and taken away as a strong man.

For a while, there were complaints about Jiangnan being involved, and the atmosphere was smoky.

Some people rejoice, others worry.

It was the time when the crops were in short supply, and the tenants didn't even have a stutter.

Now that the task of handing over the rations is over, most of the remaining rations will be taken away.

Many people in villages and towns directly chose to commit suicide in despair.

People in the village have a hard time, and those in the city are even more miserable.

All shops in the city have to donate money and materials.

The officials said it was an IOU, and when Jiangnan was conquered, the money and goods would be doubled and returned to everyone.

The common people are not fools, knowing that if the money is handed over, it will be like meat buns beating dogs, and there will be no return.

A resentment that had been accumulated for a long time pervaded the various states in the south of the Yangtze River.

Everyone dared not speak out for the time being, without exception, all of them were violently expropriated by the government.

The poor get poorer and the rich get richer.

A wealthy businessman donated Zhizhou, took the seal directly, and immediately entertained relatives and friends happily, offering sacrifices to the ancestors, saying that it was in their generation that they finally survived.

Without scientific examinations, you can directly become a fourth-rank official in the imperial court.

The official positions they donated were all in the area ruled by the rebel army.

If you want to be an official, you have to defeat the rebels first.

The rich merchants couldn't help but all stood on the side of the imperial court, as if they were standing on the same boat with the imperial court.

Some wealthy businessmen were not very smart, took the big seal and took office directly, and went to Qiantang Prefecture to find someone to ask for an official.

This farce soon spread to the ears of the rebels.

The whole army of rebels laughed helplessly, they never expected that the imperial court would make such absurd move.

Wu Yong shook his feather fan and directly asserted, "Monsters come out of troubled times, and all these chaotic appearances mean that the power of the Great Song Dynasty is exhausted. How can such a great Song Dynasty not perish?"
