Han official!

Chapter 93: The Secret 2

Chapter 93: The Secret 2
Yin Qi and Wang Wenshu were delighted with the benefits they had received. They happily left the warehouse and walked to the gate of Jiashe courtyard, ready to personally escort the cloth to the official temple in Chang'an.

The two men rode in a carriage covered with white cloth and stopped at the door to wait, wondering in their hearts whether the mutton would be enough for their wives and children to eat until summer.

Zhang Qian was driving the Hexi horses that were raised in the flag pavilion, which were also the horses that Wan Zimeng smuggled, and passed by the two of them.

Dozens of tall Hexi horses and a majestic red cardinal.

Yin Qi and Wang Wenshu seemed not to see it, their eyes fixed on the clear blue sky.

He did not see the Hexi horse that Guo Jie was planning to hide.

The four people brought by Guo Jie, except Mang Tong who followed him all the time, Zhang Qian, Wei Guang and Yi Zong each had important matters to do, which were to seize the property left by the Wan family in Liushi.

Wei Guang seized a warehouse, and Yi Zong seized various desks, lacquerware and other utensils.

Zhang Qian stayed at the flag pavilion in Liushi, counted all the horses from Hexi, brought them over to Guo Jie, and gave a detailed number.

"The various utensils were sold for seventy-five gold."

Guo Jie took out the wooden tablet and spread it out for all his brothers to see. He said, "There are five of us brothers, and each of us gets fifteen gold coins. Don't refuse. This is all money we earned with our lives."

Ten gold coins are the capital of ordinary people.

The amount of fifteen golds exceeds ten million.

Human life is too valuable.

The innkeeper of Liushi had not yet transported away the tables, copper cauldrons, lacquerware and other utensils, but had already delivered the gold cakes in advance. After witnessing the scene on the top of the city building, Guo Jie became famous in Liushi.

The shop owner was deeply impressed.

What's more, the people whose family was exterminated were the Liushi Wan family, which had long aroused the resentment of many landlords. They silently cursed in their hearts that the Liushi Wan family would be exterminated sooner or later.

I never thought it would actually come true.

The Liushi Wan family, who usually bullied the city's owners, was exterminated by Guo Jie.

It's really gratifying.

Guo Jie's white cloth-covered cart drove to the corner of the warehouse, and he took out taels of gold cakes and stacked them on the cart.

Golden light.

It almost blinded the five people's eyes.

"Haha."

Wei Guang laughed joyfully and was the first to step forward. He took his two or three stacks of fifteen-tael gold cakes and placed them in the box next to the saddle. "It's great to follow my brother out to fight. I'm a cavalry slave from the lower class, and my life is worth fifteen gold."

Zhang Qian and Yi Zong also looked filled with emotion.

People at the bottom of society never lack courage.

All that is missing is a way.

Guo Jie understood it even more clearly and felt a lot in his heart.

Not to mention ten million, he has seen migrant workers committing suicide for three or four hundred thousand yuan in compensation.

A life costs 10 million yuan, and many people at the bottom of society are willing to exchange their lives to leave their children enough money to live a comfortable life.

Zhang Qian and Yi Zong stepped forward one after another, took away three stacks of gold cakes, weighing a heavy fifteen gold pieces. They found an empty person wearing a linen jacket, wrapped the gold pieces inside the jacket, and carried them on their backs.

One gold is equal to one catty in Han.

Fifteen gold coins weigh fifteen pounds.

Yi Zong was thinking that with plenty of gold cakes in his hands, he could find someone to make a large number of Qin Dynasty torture instruments.

"Yi Zong!"

Guo Jie couldn't understand Yi Zong's intentions. He picked up the cart and the box behind it and threw them at him, glaring at him. "Give the gold cake in your hand to Zhang Qian. He will take it to Jinchenglu and give it to your sister for safekeeping. When you came here, my lady told you not to buy things carelessly. You should save them for when you get married."

Wei Guang and Yi Zong were both more wasteful than the other.

Wei Guang, at least there is a reason for what happened.

Yi Zong, however, was like an obsessed buyer of figurines. He found the engineers in the workshop to make various Qin Dynasty torture instruments and placed them separately in a cell in Chang'an Prison.

If it were not for the fact that torture instruments could not be placed at home without permission, Yi Zong would have placed the Qin Dynasty torture instruments in the guest room and admired them all day long.

"Sister-in-law."

Yi Zong pleaded, "At least leave me five noes and one gold."

Guo Jie was amused. It was rare for a cruel official, recorded in the "Biography of Cruel Officials," to appear to be begging.

"Write a letter."

Guo Jie neither refused nor agreed: "Send the letter and the gold cakes together to Jinchenglu. If Madam agrees, I will not stop you."

Agree?

Yi Shuo heard that Yi Zong used gold cakes to make torture instruments, and it was a good thing that he didn't use whipping sticks to beat him.

How could anyone agree with that?

Yi Zong was in a depressed mood and could only save his salary bit by bit to make Qin Dynasty torture instruments.

"Crash-"

Only Mang Tong showed no interest in the gold cakes. He casually wrapped them in his linen jacket and handed them to Zhang Qian, who was standing beside him. He said, "These gold cakes will remain in the care of your lady. When I get married, you will give them to my wife."

He cares about the amount of money.

I just want to have enough food to eat every day.

The food provided by Gaojie Duting was enough to fill him up, and he was alone.

It would be useless for Mang Tong to have more gold cakes.

Guo Jie also handed his gold cake to Zhang Qian, and looked at Mang Tong who was chewing millet slowly, thinking about something. He really wanted to find a virtuous and good wife for him.

The division of the golden cake is over.

Next, it is the most important Hexi horse.

Zhang Qian placed the golden cake on the saddle of a Hexi horse and led a majestic horse over. He said with great joy, "Brother, this is the red sparrow for Liu An, the King of Huainan."

A tall horse was led over.

The left side is sharp, the right nose is broken, the teeth are eight years old, the height is six feet and one inch, and the horse is called Red Bird.

The Red Sparrow has a sturdy physique, as strong as an ox, and its mane is as bright red as the vermilion leopard brocade. It looks like a Hexi horse wrapped in silk brocade.

Guo Jie's eyes lit up, and he immediately jumped off the white cloth-covered carriage and stroked the red cardinal's silky mane.

Can't put it down.

He couldn't help himself and just rode on the cardinal's back, holding the reins tightly.

"Xi Yuyu——"

The redbird had a fierce temper and immediately started running. With a flash of red light, it rushed out directly from the lintel of the courtyard of Jiashe.

"?"

Yin Qi was confused and said, "I seemed to see something rushing out."

Wang Wenshu was thinking about how to butcher a sheep so that he could make the most of its meat, blood, and wool. He looked up at the empty inner gate and said in confusion, "I also feel a breeze. Perhaps it's a wind."

He quickly put the wind behind him and focused on how to squeeze all the value out of the sheep.

Not long after, another red light flashed and rushed into the house with a gust of wind.

Yin Qi and Wang Wenshu saw clearly that it was a majestic Hexi horse.

"Good horse!"

Guo Jie was overjoyed: "This red bird is the biggest prize of this inspection of the prison and Liushi. The red bird is worthy of the name "bird". It is so fast that it seems to be flying."

A redbird.

Thirty Hexi horses.

They are all precious things that cannot be bought even if you have money.

Guo Jie instructed: "Zhang Qian, take thirty horses from Hexi and, under the command of the Wei Cao, escort the corvée to Jinchengluli on the left side of the Yellow River. The others, follow me, return to the official temple in Chang'an."

There is one last reward.

While buying a title to atone for sins.

Once again acquired a large amount of fertile land.
