Chapter Eleven: Closing the City Gate and Release the Prisoners(2/2)
"...Borrow 10,000 shi of grain and pay it back at an optional date? How dare you write an IOU in His Majesty's name! Why don't you go and grab it!"
"presumptuous!"
Dong You shouted to stop, holding the silk tightly and arching his hands towards the north.
"His Royal Highness is the crown prince conferred by His Majesty. He has the seal of the supervisory government. The orders issued are equivalent to His Majesty's will. If you question His Majesty, you are questioning His Majesty. You will be dragged down and beaten with twenty sticks!"
"yes!"
The soldiers guarding the city have been waiting to deal with these dogs for a long time.
He took out a smelly rag from nowhere, stuffed it into Jin Er's mouth, dragged it to a well-lit corner, took off his pants and started swinging the stick.
Bang bang bang!
Amidst the sound of a series of strong sticks, Dong You picked up another piece of silk.
"Where is the Jinling Xia family?"
The slaves took half a step back.
A group of Xia family servants who dared not respond were left standing there, pushing me and pushing you, and no one dared to step forward to take the hot yellow silk.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty is responsible for borrowing food and will pay it back. Not to mention you, even if your master is here, he would not dare to disobey the order."
Dong You pointed at a few generals of Western Chu and ordered:
"Go and bring over the Xia family's ten cars."
Phew!
An old slave of the Xia family fell to his knees and began to cry and howl.
"Master Dong, have mercy! The Xia family has fifteen carts of food in total. You have to leave food for the slave's master's family!"
"The remaining 20,000 stones are in the granary, aren't they? I will ask His Highness the Crown Prince to borrow less when I leave the city next time."
Dong You, who had already sent people to find out the grain stores of each family, was not affected by the suffering scheme at all.
"..."
The old slave of the Xia family stayed on the spot and could not say a word.
robber!
Dong You is just fucking a gangster!
First step on the ground, then close the city gate, seize the grain, and send them away with an IOU.
The old slave of the Xia family felt his heart bleed when he saw the city gates opening immediately, and one cart after another being pulled out of the city and about to be sent to the military camp.
"They just want to grab food! Cough cough cough..."
After being beaten with twenty sticks, Jin Er saw his family's one hundred thousand stone grains being pulled out of the city gate. He held back a breath of evil and angrily instigated others.
"Why did your Majesty borrow it? Even if His Majesty borrowed this much food, the owner would still be rewarded with a lot of gold and silver. Does the prince have any money as collateral?"
"We can't be fooled by the prince. Even if this IOU is presented to His Majesty, His Majesty may not recognize it! If the Prince has the ability, he will just rob it! Why should I give you the IOU!"
After thinking about it for a moment, the servants of each family realized that what Jin Er said was reasonable.
Dong You's expression changed drastically.
It is a rule in South Vietnam to use physical collateral for IOUs, and he also told the prince this rule.
But the prince had no money, so he could only think of using force to suppress these unscrupulous slaves and borrow food.
It was he who underestimated the reaction of these slaves.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and run away!"
Jin Er roared again.
The servants of each family came back to their senses and were preparing to go back to their cars and rush out of the city gate.
Sudden.
A black figure holding a long scythe descended from the sky and landed in front of them, blocking their way.
"Everyone, I'm really sorry, I forgot the rule of asking for collateral when writing IOUs."
Not many of the servants from each family had seen Zhang Junlin.
But just look at the weird long scythe and Zhang Junlin's self-proclaimed name, and the pressure that forced them to bow their heads.
Then we knew that this was the current crown prince of Nanyue Kingdom!
"Even if you are the prince, you still have to give the slaves something as collateral so that the slaves can answer to their master!"
When Jin Er saw Zhang Junlin being forced out by him, he smiled in triumph.
Who knows that Queen Mo's two children are not favored, and their lives are even more miserable than those of their slaves?
The whole body combined may not exceed ten gold, which is not enough to pay for one hundred stone grain, let alone ten thousand stone grain for the Jin family!
