Chapter 207 A chivalrous man wants money?
Is it what he thinks?
Although Quan Jinghuai himself felt that this idea was too exaggerated, he vaguely felt in his heart that it was not impossible!
If this is really the case, then she is too, too? Quan Jinghuai can't think of suitable words to describe it!
"Mr. Quan, no, it's Hero Quan. You have the greatest credit for the success of this bandit suppression. I am going to report to the court to ask for credit for you. When the time comes, there should be rewards, and maybe there will be rewards. Brother Fengquan, you can do it alone," General Mu said happily.
After all these years, this gang of pirates had not been wiped out, and he felt uneasy.
I'm fine now. The big stone that has been weighing on my heart for many years has finally been lifted.
Therefore, after repeatedly toasting Quan Jinghuai with wine, the other party toasted him back, and the two subordinates next to him toasted again, so the wine was a bit high.
In one sentence, the title of Quan Jinghuai changed three times.
The two lieutenants at the same table did not feel that their general had lost his temper after drinking too much wine, because they were also happy!
Therefore, they hosted a banquet for the great hero Quan Jinghuai and his entourage.
"General, you're too polite. I don't deserve the credit. It was the pirates who didn't have the foresight to provoke us. The biggest credit goes to you, general. You worked hard to protect the safety of the people.
Please give me credit. , Forget about being granted an official title.
If the general takes the initiative, it would be most economical to give us some money." Quan Jinghuai suddenly thought that now there are three children and seven children in the family, with ten mouths for food and clothing. They all needed money, so they quickly took this opportunity to speak.
When I think of the seven disciples, I pick up kelp everywhere in my free time, dry it and keep it to eat on the road, because it is a free ingredient!
Therefore, Quan Jinghuai doesn't feel embarrassed about asking for money.
What about losing face and losing self-esteem to make life easier for the seven young disciples? Isn’t this what he should do as a master? If you have the opportunity to reap some benefits, why not cherish the opportunity?
In this big family, he is the eldest, and he should also help the 'mother' of the disciples to share some of the burden.
Huh? Want money?
General Mu and the other two generals at the same table were all startled after hearing this. They were very surprised!
In their eyes, this hero Quan is a knight.
A chivalrous person is very righteous, very informal, and very generous!
Why are you asking for benefits and money directly?
"I'm sorry, you have also seen that Quan's big family has to support." Faced with the shock of the three people, Quan Jinghuai's face was a little hot, but he still said bravely.
It's okay, it's not shameful. This kind of thing will be difficult at the beginning. Once you do it more in the future, you'll get used to it. He comforted himself in his heart.
If he really wanted to maintain the so-called self-esteem of a man who cares about himself, he would have long ago found an excuse to leave his disciples.
After all, this disciple’s little ‘mother’ is incredibly powerful, and she is also very qualified to be their master’s master.
Besides, the suppression of pirates this time was indeed a meritorious service. I helped these people. Why can’t I just ask for a reward?
"Silver? But we also..." The man next to him said hesitantly when he saw that Quan Jinghuai was really not joking and really wanted the money.
General Mu interrupted his men: "Okay, it should be given. I will order someone to prepare it for Daxia Quan later."
The one sitting next to General Mu kicked his general's feet under the table.
"Why are you kicking me?" When General Mu was kicked, he thought someone at the same table accidentally bumped into him, but when he was kicked one after another, he lowered his head and looked under the table.
After seeing clearly whose foot it was that kicked him, he immediately questioned the owner of the foot. It was very embarrassing to be kicked. His general had drunk too much. Otherwise, no matter how upright he was, he wouldn't be like this.
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Looking at the constipated expressions of his men, General Mu also reacted, but it was already like this, and he was too lazy to use his brain to think of what to do. resolve.
The person who was being trained had no choice but to say: "General, our military pay is very tight. It is not appropriate to pay less, and we can't pay more."
After listening to his words, he sat down The subordinate opposite General Mu smiled sheepishly at Quan Jinghuai.
After Quan Jinghuai heard this, he was also startled. He didn’t think so much. He stood up and clasped his fists and said to General Mu: "Quan doesn’t know this. It’s Quan’s fault that the general is in trouble." No, General Mu, please just pretend that Quan didn't say anything."
"Brother Quan, sit down and let you see the joke. However, I can still get this money. It must be given." General Mu said with a smile and motioned for Quan Jinghuai to sit down.
Then he looked at his two subordinates and whispered: "We can have a meat and tooth sacrifice at noon, why can't we get any money?"
The two subordinates reacted as soon as they heard this. They exchanged looks and nodded with a smile. How could they have forgotten this?
We just confiscated the stolen goods from the pirates. Not counting the gold, silver, jewelry and antiques, there are still tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver. The silver for this afternoon’s meal was taken from there.
They are all General Mu's cronies. Like General Mu, they are upright but not rigid and do not know how to adapt.
The stolen goods and silver stolen by the pirates were also counted and held by the trusted soldiers.
It is not up to them to decide the specific number to be reported to the court?
I originally planned to hide part of it and use it in emergency situations, and I didn't think of being greedy. They originally wanted to use the money to help the villagers on the coast who had been harmed by pirates, but they did not dare to do that.
In case there is news, someone with a black heart writes a secret letter and finds out.
The person on the dragon throne would not think that they did the right thing for the people, but would only think that they made the decision privately and did things without authorization, and did not take him as the emperor in their eyes.
So, General Mu and the others gave up that plan for the sake of safety.
Now they are sure to hide more money and give it to people who have made great contributions to suppressing bandits.
Besides, even if all the stolen money is honestly handed over to the court, in the end, it would be great if half of it can actually reach the capital and enter the national treasury.
There are too many corrupt people who are corrupt and perverting the law. They have many means and are corrupt at every level along the way.
There was once a legend among the people that a huge luminous pearl was found somewhere, and they wanted to dedicate it to the one on the dragon throne. As a result, after the officials along the way handed it over, when it got into the hands of the emperor, The huge luminous pearl turned into beads that were slightly larger than ordinary luminous pearls.
After the emperor saw it, he had no doubt that it was his corrupt officials who were greedy and clever enough to replace the large beads handed over with smaller beads on the way to the capital. The smaller the number, the emperor only thought it was the one who donated the beads, which was too exaggerated.
Quan Jinghuai couldn't understand the conversation between General Mu and his subordinates, so he was speechless.
"Master Quan, your kung fu is really great. That day, people brought back the body of the pirate leader. There were blood holes all over the body, but it didn't look like it was wounded by a sword. I don't know what kind of weapon it was..."
