Chapter 35 Selling Military Merit
Li Jing gradually calmed down. Feng Liang was indeed a playboy, but Li Jing did not forget that he was from the Feng family of Bohai. His uncle was not only the chief minister of Dengzhou, but also the deputy envoy of Dengzhou's regiment training.
Feng Liang seemed to be talking about a very simple little thing, patting Li Jing's shoulder while chuckling his plan with a scent of alcohol.
"Didn't Dengzhou already know the matter of bandit suppression? Feng Wulang's proposal seems to be unfeasible, right?" Li Jing asked him.
"Brother is still a little bit young. After all, this officialdom is aware of it and helps each other. Besides, we can only know this matter, and it has nothing to do with other people." As he said that, Feng Liang called a wine-stop.
Li Jing endured the unpleasant smell of alcohol and said, "With Feng Wulang's family background, if Uncle Ling takes action, it would be easy to find a job for you, right? But I don't know why Wulang still wants to go far, and it's so complicated."
"You don't know this. From the people to the officials is actually the most difficult step. Once you have an official position, it will be a simple matter to be promoted in the future. Although my uncle is the chief minister, there are still the governors, and some things are not easy to do. But if my brother is willing to help me, it will be different. If you ask your brother to give me two head-level merits, even if you know this, you won't really care about this. This is a matter of your affection and will do more in the army. If he does too much in the army, he will not be able to take care of it too much. If you really want to take care of it, it will cause public anger."
Li Jing felt disgusted and turned around and burped softly. Li Jing's alcohol tolerance was pretty good, but he drank too much, and he couldn't stand it.
"Brother, I will not ask for your military merits in vain. I have always been happy with you in my work, so I will be happy with you. Brother, tell me, even if your brother keeps those two military merits, what can you do? It's just rewards and money. But now the court does not have any rewards. Even if there is a little reward, you have to divide them from above and get some more. How many people can you get? Tell you the truth, I won't want those two crafts in vain. I bid fifty thousand each!" Feng Liang didn't know whether it was really drunk or fake drunk, so he shook his head and gave Li Jing a price.
One head exchanged for fifty thousand, this is not a decimal. The reward for the monkey-faced boss of Xihuozhai is only 100 pieces of silk, 20 thousand, and the combined cost is only 100 thousand. The reward for those minions is only 100 pieces of silk, five stakes of money, and the reward for the minions given up is only 13,000. The reward for the two minions has a reward of twenty-staked, and according to military merit, these two heads are also worth ten thousand. The reward for the two heads is worth 36,000 yuan. Feng Liang exchanged 100 yuan for one hundred stake. Xiao Shitou and others did not suffer any loss, and they also earned 64,000 yuan.
Seeing that Li Jing did not answer, Feng Liang thought Li Jing thought the money was too small, and immediately said, "Of course, I will give it to me, but I don't want the reward and military merit reward. The thirty-six stagnant of the sum will be given to you."
Li Jing sighed a little in his heart. Feng Liang was really willing to spend money. In order to buy two heads, he was willing to spend 136 guan. This is a big laugh, and it is equivalent to the property of a small landlord in the countryside.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, I have no other intentions, but the matters before and after have already been reported to the state yamen. Even if the brothers are willing to give this head to Wulang, I am afraid that the top is not easy to do. If the top is investigated, I am only worried that not only will my brothers be punished, but they will also implicate Brother Feng."
"Don't worry about this." Feng Liang waved his hand, "The report was still in the state and has not been submitted to the Jiedu Palace and the court. As long as the brother and your brothers agree, there will be nothing else. In fact, this deal is very cost-effective, 136 guan, and if two heads are replaced, the deal is absolutely worth it. If it weren't for my brother, I was eager to get an official, you wouldn't be able to encounter such a good thing."
At this moment, Li Jing remembered a sentence from later generations. Life is sometimes like rape. If you can't resist, then close your eyes and enjoy it.
Faced with Feng Liang's request, he could actually use the governor Cui as a shield. But if he thought about it carefully, even if he was a little angry, it was actually just like Feng Liang said. This was actually a very cost-effective transaction. Xiao Shitou and the others were from a farmer family in Wangli Village like him. Even if they didn't give up their military merits, even if they didn't pay any penny in the end, the most they could get was a reward of 18 trump cards per person. No matter how much they could get, they wouldn't think of it if there was no one above.
Now that the military merits are given out, he can immediately get a reward of 68 jin per person. In a certain aspect, helping Feng Liang is also showing kindness to the Feng family. Now Li Jing has become Cui Yunqing's disciple, and Cui Yunqing is not in harmony with Feng Yanqing, and fighting with gods will inevitably lead to the disaster of him, a mortal. But if he helps Feng Liang, maybe the Feng family may not make things difficult for him as a young man in the future.
Li Jing had thought about giving his military merits to Feng Liang, but these military merits were also related to Li Jing's future. Li Jing didn't want to miss this opportunity, but Xiao Shitou and others were different. With Cui Yunqing as a teacher, Li Jing would definitely have good prospects in the future, but Xiao Shitou and others had to take care of him.
After thinking for a long time, Li Jing gradually planned to agree to this matter.
"Brother Feng is really willing to pay for this money? If so, I can make it clear to my brothers and let them give you military merits."
After hearing this, Feng Liang showed a bright smile on his face: "Brother, I did not read the wrong brother. Don't worry, Feng Liang is not the kind of villain who is untrustworthy. In this way, I will give one hundred and forty thousand in two heads. In addition, if they are willing to give me the military merits of the third head, I will be willing to take out another one hundred and forty thousand in my brother."
Li Jing was moved by the three head-level military achievements, and almost wanted to sell all his head-level military achievements for 280 stagnation.
"Okay, Brother Feng is so proud. I'll agree for my brothers. But I agreed that we will just give you the military merits of the first level to you. As for how Brother Feng handles other things, we won't care about it anymore, and we can't."
Feng Liang slapped his chest and said, "Three heads are second-class military achievements. You can almost get one from the ninth-rank Shangguan rank. Don't worry, everything else is not a problem."
As he said that, he patted Li Jing on the shoulder and said, "Of course, I will not forget this favor of my brother. In this way, my brother raised a few good horses. Tomorrow, I will send you one." Then, he took out a piece of paper from his arms, "This is the flying money from my Fengjia Xuanhe Rui Guesthouse. The ticket is worth 500 guan. As long as you hold this ring, whether it is the two capitals or the various Daozhou cities in the world, you can get 500 guan worth of money or silk, rice, millet, etc. from my Fengjia Xuanhe Rui Guesthouse. Two hundred and eighty guan are used to thank your brother for giving me military merits. The rest is a thank you gift to me."
Li Jing couldn't help but be smashed by Feng Liang's rain of money. Five hundred stagnant coins, plus a war horse, and at least 600,000 yuan was worth at least 600,000 yuan. In order to be promoted, he actually took out almost 600,000 yuan. How much money does this dog have? At this time, the last bit of unhappiness in his heart was completely relieved by such a large amount of money.
This deal was done!
Li Jing took the flying money and the ring used to make the token without hesitation. The money had been obtained, but he was not worried that Feng Liang would break his promise after taking the military title.
"Let's go, let's have another two drinks. We won't be drunk today." Feng Liang saw that the matter was done, and his face was as smiling as a chrysanthemum. "We will be our own family in the future. With Cui Jun as the commander, and with my Feng family as a friend, my brother will have a bright future in the future!"
