Chapter 720 Let’s start with a small warm-up
Since demobilization would take some time, Zhou Xu still slept in the General’s Mansion in Jie Liancheng that night.
Early the next morning, Li Bowen and a group of officials from the old dynasty came to see him again.
"Little man Li Bowen, please see the king!"
As he spoke, a group of officials from the old dynasty followed Li Bowen and knelt down one after another.
"No courtesy."
With permission, Li Bowen stood up and said respectfully...
"Your Majesty, these officials from the old dynasty have been persuaded by the villain, and they are all willing to work for me. Effectiveness.”
At this point, Li Bowen paused.
"At the same time, the villain said yesterday that he would spend all his wealth to support the king. At this moment, the villain has ordered the servants in the palace to transport all the money from home, and some are used to relieve the victims. of food.”
At the same time that Li Bowen said this, the sound of moving was also heard outside the lobby.
At this moment, I saw the servants of the General’s Mansion helping to move boxes and boxes of things into the courtyard of their General’s Mansion.
Every big box requires two or even four people to move it. The dull sound the box makes when it hits the ground further proves that the box is not light. The contents of the box are of course self-evident.
Looking at these big boxes, Zhou Xu smiled widely.
“Bowen really cares about the people and is the pillar of the country!”
"The king is wise, and the villain is also inspired by the king to make up his mind!"
"Hahahaha!!"
Hearing this, Zhou Xu laughed directly.
If he had not seen Li Bowen's attribute panel and knew that the other party was indeed an outstanding talent, he would have suspected that the other party's position as prime minister was achieved through flattery.
Looking at Li Bowen, who turned his head and was about to become a celebrity in front of the new king, the officials from the old dynasty who came with him were not to be outdone and spoke out one after another...
"We are also willing to spend all our wealth to contribute to the king's new policy! We also brought it all this time!"
Needless to say, we came here with Li Bowen this time. They are all officials from the old dynasty who united the front with the other side and advanced and retreated together.
After surrendering to him, there is a high probability that this group of people will unite and form an internal party. This is the team brought by Li Bowen himself.
What’s the next step for this party? Just for personal gain!
From the perspective of a ruler, it is definitely not a good thing for his subordinates to form cliques for personal gain.
However, even if he had to deal with these officials from the old dynasty who came to send money and perform their duties, it would definitely not be done now.
"Okay, okay! It is my great fortune to have virtuous ministers like you! Don't worry, I, the Great Zhou, will never treat meritorious ministers badly!"
Zaihao While giving generous compliments and making a big deal out of the officials of the old dynasty, Zhou Xu also quickly activated the 'Eye of Peeping Secrets' to check their panels one by one.
Yan Sheng’s method of selecting officials is very simple and crude.
Anyway, he will arrange the matter. If he can handle it well, he will be promoted, and if he can't handle it, he will get out.
Although the method is simple, the effect is quite good. In the end, if you can reach a high position, you will naturally have a certain ability.
[Good guy, besides Li Bowen, there is another person with three stars in intelligence and three people with three stars in spirit! 】
[Although the remaining ones are all two-stars, their talents are consistent, and they can display greater abilities than ordinary two-stars in these positions. 】
【It’s the loyalty of these guys, they are really stuck in the qualifying line! 】
【This Li Bowen, is it because of the conversation yesterday? Now the loyalty level has risen to sixty-three points, which is a good sign. 】
In summary, although these guys are not good people, they are indeed capable and not waste. As I said before, as long as you have the ability, you should use it.
Although these guys are not very loyal, as long as they remain in chaos, Zhou Xu is not afraid of them causing any trouble.
At the same time, judging from Li Bowen's situation, you can still try to brush up your loyalty. If you brush it above 70 points, you will have a certain degree of loyalty.
After sending all those people away, Jie Liancheng ordered the people to close the door, and then his eyes fell on the large boxes that had been piled up in their courtyard.
"Take a look?"
Xie Liancheng looked at Zhou Xu excitedly, obviously impatient.
Zhou Xu is not surprised by this.
“Open!”
Almost at the same time as Zhou Xu said the word, Xie Liancheng raised his hand and opened a box in front of him, which was much smaller than the other big boxes. box.
"Let's warm up a little first, hahaha..."
In an instant, under the sunshine, Zhou Xu and Jie Liancheng felt that they were directly dazzled by a burst of golden light, and then they said in unison uttered that word.
“Grass!”
At this moment, what was in front of them was a box full of gold! Under the sunlight, it really shines like gold!
As a general, Xie Liancheng was relieved of military power, but his treatment was still very good. In this era, he could afford to live in a big house, hire servants, and was not short of money at all on weekdays. The wealthy class, but he has never seen so much gold, let alone Zhou Xu.
"Damn it, are you so enthusiastic right from the start?"
Xie Liancheng clicked his tongue.
A whole box of gold would make people excited in modern society, and now, the impact is not small at all.
Looking at this box of gold, Xie Liancheng couldn't help but roll up his sleeves and wanted to try the gold.
“Give labor and capital a raise!!!”
As a result, he hugged the box and exerted force. After the box barely lifted off the ground, it immediately fell to the ground with a thud.
"Fuck! I blindly guessed that there might be five hundred kilograms here!"
Although this box is small, the density of gold is very high. The same volume of gold weighs almost three times as much as iron!
No wonder it took a strong man to move this small box in at that time.
At the same time, this also made Zhou Xu and Xie Liancheng basically certain that the small box contained gold and the big box contained silver.
And there are three small boxes containing gold like this!
In addition, the amount of silver is even more exaggerated. There are eighty-seven boxes, which fills the courtyard of the General's Mansion. This is probably not all. Those guys, I am sure There is still a lot left.
Looking at the large boxes of gold and silver, Jie Liancheng felt a little numb.
“Are these guys so greedy?”
Zhou Xu may not be very clear yet, but Xie Liancheng is quite familiar with the income and prices here.
It is no exaggeration to say that this house may be worth their entire country’s tax revenue for several years!
He couldn't even imagine how these guys got so much gold and silver.
After thinking about it later, Xie Liancheng suddenly came to his senses.
We have been fighting all these years!
Zhou Xu's mind was spinning faster than Xie Liancheng's, so he naturally guessed this earlier. He shook his head and didn't know what to say.
"In short, load them all into the car first, send them to the palace and lock them up, and then use them when the time comes to mint coins."
