Chapter 332 Which flag is Big Baylor leading?

Looking at the glorious eight east beads, Xiong Mingyu's eyes were almost greedy, and his heartstrings were also trembling.

Because this is the first time he has received bribes since he became an official, and he has received such a huge sum of money.

Dongzhu in Jianzhou is the favorite thing of the nobles in Guannei. I heard that the concubines in the palace like Dongzhu the most, so every year the list of items that Liaodong pays tribute to the palace is Dongzhu the first.

With such a hot spot and rare nature, Dongzhu's value has been rising steadily, no worse than gold.

Nowadays, within the pass, a Dongzhu with an average quality can be sold for at least twenty taels of silver per piece, while those with excellent quality doubled.

The eight east beads in front of Xiong Mingyu were sold in the pass, and they would never be less than three hundred taels of silver. In addition to these eight east beads, Xiong Mingyu also received a silver note from the Chenyang Trading Company, with a denomination of one thousand taels.

One thousand three hundred taels, for Xiong Mingyu, who was born in a farmer's family, it was not a huge sum of money!

You should know that as a military officer, he only earns more than 40 taels of silver in his nominal salary and physical goods.

It is not easy to live in Kyoto.

If it weren't for the gray income in the yamen, the various filial piety from fellow villagers' associations, and the many help from colleagues in the party, Xiong Mingyu's salary could not even support his family, so why would he go to the restaurant every now and then invite three or five friends to drink a drink, and then he would scold him and give him some advice.

Of course, those shameful money in Xiong Mingyu's eyes are definitely not dirty money. This is an example in the officialdom. Everyone does this, but if you don't take it, it will appear out of the ordinary.

Since the 29th year of Wanli, he was promoted to the position of magistrate and promoted to the post of the eight years since the eight years since his reign, Xiong Mingyu can be regarded as honest. At least he does not think that the money he received in the past was so-called bribery.

Like today, Xiong Mingyu received a huge bribe of more than a thousand taels of silver, and his conscience was really the first time. However, it was precisely because of the first time that he was inevitably a little nervous, so he was suspicious along the way, always worried that someone would follow him.

With a huge sum of money, he was not worried about encountering a disaster. He was only worried that someone would report it to him.

After all, he himself is a censor. He likes to write a letter to reveal that an official has taken bribes and abused the law. Even if it is news, he will still enjoy it.

The reason is that they don’t care whether the official has really accepted bribes or abused the law. They only care whether they can turn the official down and make it smell bad by using this matter.

There is a target for the news.

The Qingliu of Kedao is extremely expensive, and the pen in his hand is like a famous national instrument, how can he take action easily?

Either you don’t take action, you will hit it once you make a move. Otherwise, you will definitely be fond of it.

Therefore, the Qingliu people are not fools, they will not bite people randomly.

Xiong Mingyu is a member of the Donglin Party. He has a unified plan within the party for whom and when to take action. He doesn’t bother with him. All he has to do is write his article well.

Just as his purpose in coming to Jianzhou this time was not to really take a look at the left and right guards of Jianzhou for the court, but to catch the envoy's little braid and provide evidence for the party's planning.

Although, there is nothing to gain about this matter at the moment, because Jianzhou did not make the matter bigger as Xiong Mingyu thought, so that he could intervene openly and write to the court from the perspective of a "public man" and write straight.

However, there are unexpected gains.

If Jianzhou does not cooperate, Xiong Mingyu, who is good at making money, can still make a big fuss and pay the party after returning to Beijing. But he accepted these eight Dongzhu and the thousand taels of silver with a smile. With this huge sum of money, the Chunchun, which he usually dared to go to for two or three months, must have been there for a few days in a row. Otherwise, he would have really wronged himself.

The request of the governor of Jianzhou was not too much. It was just to ask Xiong Ming to say a few good things for Jianzhou after returning to Beijing, and to ask for a court title for his son, Taizhu Hong, who was accidentally killed.

Xiong Mingyu also has a son. As a father, he can understand the pain of losing his son by the governor of Jianzhou. At the same time, he is impressed by the governor of Jianzhou's attitude of knowing the general and taking the overall situation into consideration.

This incident did not touch his moral bottom line, nor did it damage the interests of the Ming Dynasty. It was a slight effort.

Before, I was really afraid that the young man who lived in the West Courtyard would notice something, but now, he is not worried anymore.

Who would have known that he had accepted bribes from the governor of Jianzhou?

Holding the eight east beads in his hand and rubbed them around, Xiong Mingyu carefully put the beads back into the bag, took out the silver note and stuffed it in, then walked to the table and hid the bag in the leather boots.

When the good minister outside saw it, he couldn't help but understand that Lord Qingxiong was turning over into the sky inside the house to find a place to hide money.

At the same time, I admire him very much. Who would have thought that there was a wealth hidden in the inconspicuous boots?

This trick must be learned by good students.

In the room, Xiong Mingyu placed his boots casually on the ground as before, without any abnormality.

He couldn't help but feel a little proud, because he was sure that the boy named Wei was not as lucky as him and could make such a fortune.

Even if the governor of Jianzhou gave up the revenge of killing his son, he really gave the boy a gift. It was amazing that only a few silver ingots and a few Dongzhus of average quality. Could it be that he could still catch up with him, Lord Xiong?

Xiong was born as a Jinshi, so how could that miscellaneous person reach?

Thinking of this, Xiong Mingyu felt comfortable all over. This moment was the most comfortable time since he left the seclusion.

………

Outside, Liangchen's body slowly shrank and then gradually disappeared.

Liangchen did not go back, but went directly to the Great Beile Mansion in Qianying.

Wei Sheren looked down on the bag Xiong Mingyu regarded as a treasure at all.

Because, if you take a handful of the four boxes given to him by the black-faced old man, you will probably catch up with the value of the bag.

This was the first time in Wei Sheren that he was very moved, and he was moved by Nuerhaci's keen eyes to recognize people.

It turned out that I was really wrong to blame the black-faced old man. It turned out that in the black-faced old man, he was the most valuable one.

He is not cheap. Xiong Mingyu is the cheapest one.

The eldest brother didn't talk about the second brother and exposed the gifts that others received, but Wei Sheren disdained to do. He happily took Xiaotian and the others to Dabeile Mansion.

The guard at the door may have received the order from his master. When he saw Wei Liangchen, he respectfully invited him in. Qian Ying, who received the news, came to greet him happily.

Guangluo Da Beile already knew that Weisheren was about to leave Jianzhou, and also knew that his Ama gave Lolor to Weisheren, so he was reluctant to leave.

"I admire Da Beile's performance just now." Liangchen and Ju Ying said a few words of separation and praised each other.

Qian Ying's face turned red: "I'm asking the shepherd to laugh at it."

Liangchen laughed and said that he wanted to say that he would be reborn again and again, and that Da Beile would get used to it. It can be seen that Ju Ying was embarrassed and thought it was still not exciting. His time was limited, so it was important to do things.
