85. The Escort has become famous(2/2)
"Brother Jin, look at what this is?" Jiang Zhen suddenly opened a box in the room.
The white pieces in the box were piled up together, big or small silver ingots.
"This group of water bandits didn't have much money, but there were about 50,000 taels, and there were a lot of more valuable goods." When the water bandit leader unified the various water bandit gangs, he also robbed the silver from those people, and even saved a lot of money.
In fact, 50,000 taels... He said it was less, but he was afraid that Brother Zhao Jin would be scared.
However, this amount of money was very, very much for Brother Zhao Jin, but in fact it was not much. There was a slashing bed on Zheng Yi's main boat that he wanted to take to the dowry for Miss Zheng's family in the capital. The bed alone was worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Fifty thousand taels... Brother Zhao Jin was completely stunned.
Once upon a time, his entire family belonged to less than five taels, but now... he has inexplicably received 50,000 taels?
Brother Zhao was a little dazed and couldn't speak even when he sat on the edge of the bed.
Is this stunned? Jiang Zhen grabbed Zhao Jin Ge's chin and kissed him several times. After finding that Zhao Jin Ge still didn't respond, he made a move to take off Zhao Jin Ge's pants.
Brother Zhao finally came to his senses at this time, and then grabbed his belt with shame and annoyance.
Jiang Zhen laughed, let go of Brother Zhao Jin, and said, "Brother Jin, let's go and see Young Master Zheng." The ship had stopped, and he should report to Zheng Yi.
Jiang Zhen took the somewhat dizzy brother Zhao Jin to see Zheng Yi, and told Zheng Yi about the incident this time, and said, "Mr. Zheng, I have taken the money from the water bandits, and this time the incident will be done thanks to Mr. Zheng. There are still people on those ships and the goods on the ship. Mr. Zheng can go and receive it."
Ships and cargo are the most valuable, and this is actually not that difficult to understand for Zheng Yi.
He still has many places to rely on Zheng Yi. This time he went north, and it really seems that he is just Zheng Yi's employee.
Jiang Zhen said this, but Zheng Yi did not agree: "Jiang Zhen, if it weren't for you this time, let alone protecting the goods, even my own life might not be able to stay. How can I take your things again? Your fleet will follow my fleet. When you arrive in the capital and sell the goods, you can still buy some more goods and bring them back to Jiangnan."
After Zheng Yi finished speaking, he saw that Jiang Zhen seemed to say something, and immediately said: "Jiang Zhen, I don't tell you that it's false. I did this because I saw your value. We can cooperate more in the future."
Even if Zheng Yi is rich enough, he will not dislike having too much money. Of course he wants those goods.
But Jiang Zhen's value is definitely higher than that of those goods.
Zheng Yi did not ask Jiang Zhen to give him the ship and cargo, but he happily collected the crew that Jiang Zhen gave him.
He is really short of people!
With enough crew members, I rested for another night, and the next day, the fleet set off again.
At this time, the people sent by Jiang Zhen to report the case had already returned.
The Guangping Prefecture people are living in poverty and countless people become bandits. Of course, it is impossible to just be caused by drought.
In fact, for the people of Guangping Prefecture, ** is more terrible than natural disasters, and this ** was discovered after this natural disaster.
The officials of Guangping Prefecture have almost changed over the past few months.
The newly appointed officials were ambitious at first and wanted to manage the place well, but after knowing the situation in Guangping Prefecture, they felt helpless.
The people have all gone as bandits, so they want to find the army to suppress bandits... Last year, the food and salary were not available, so many generals and their subordinates also worked as bandits as part-time jobs.
It’s really a nest of officials and bandits!
Looking at the yamen runners in the government office who were sleeping and shaking their fans in the shade of trees, a newly appointed county magistrate of Guangping Prefecture couldn't help but grit his teeth - this life was simply impossible!
He wanted these people to help him do something, but these people ignored him!
The county magistrate was depressed, and the aide he brought suddenly ran from outside and rushed towards him with excitement: "Sir, sir, the group of water bandits in the West Mountain have been taken away!"
In their county, there was a big river and a large wharf, and the merchants would make a lot of money, but since a group of water bandits emerged from the West Mountain, the merchants' ships did not dare to stop at the dock.
Now that those water bandits have been destroyed, this is a great thing!
"Be serious?" The county magistrate jumped up, his face full of disbelief.
"Take it seriously! Someone came to report the case, and brought a few water bandits here," said the staff member. "They are from the Jin Zhen Escort Agency. Those water bandits wanted to steal the ship they protected, so they would be taken over by them."
"Jin Zhen Escort Agency? Not bad, really good!" The county magistrate was very happy.
Without the water bandits, the dock was useful again. He gathered the defeated water bandits and asked them to work for him. And... Although all the valuable things in the water bandits' village were probably taken away, it was impossible for those people to take away everything. He went to dig three feet of the ground and could still get some money so that he would not be able to call the yamen runners because he was owed and could not send out the monthly payment...
