The banquet was drunk until very supper, and the juggling fun in Penglai City did not stop all night. Of course, Li Jing understood that all this was not really to celebrate the victory in the bandit suppression, it was just a show.

Because during this period, bandits in Xu, Yan, Qingqi and other areas rose, and refugees surged. Not only was the area in Huai and Si unstable, but Dengzhou, which was far away on the coast of the East China Sea, was greatly impacted. People from all over the country were in panic, and many bandits and horse thieves also took the opportunity to do a large-scale activity. This led to a huge impact on the largest port in the northern part of the Tang Dynasty. The number of business travel in Dengzhou Port was much less, and the commercial trade in Dengzhou began to shrink.

Dengzhou is close to the sea, so it has always been relying on ports and sea routes, so it is very prosperous. Once the bandits are making too much trouble, no one dares to come to Dengzhou Port, and Dengzhou will no longer be prosperous. This is a scene that all Dengzhou officials, local tyrants and wealthy businessmen do not want to see. So when Li Jing and the others killed only ten bandits, they will create such a big battle and make it so lively. To put it bluntly, it is just that the upper class figures used Li Jing's small victory in the fight against the bandits to calm the rumors circulating, stabilize the people's hearts and save the business path.

Others may not be able to see this, but Li Jing understood it very well. He has seen many ways to engage in activities to attract the attention of the people in later generations.

On that day, Li Jing and Xiao Shitou were both drunk in Wangxianlou. It was not until the sky was dawn that the shopkeepers were awakened. When Li Jing opened his eyes, he found that he was sleeping in the backyard on the first floor of the restaurant. It was probably the room of the guys. There were a row of large shops in the room. In addition to him, eight drunk Xiao Shitou lies on it.

"Li Sanlang is awake, I'll give me some water to wash my face." A short brown guy saw Li Jing open the door and hurriedly greeted him.

"Where is this? Why am I sleeping here?"

"Oh, this is the backyard of Wangxianlou. Yesterday you got drunk, Feng Wulang, the nephew of Feng Changshi, asked the young man to temporarily place you here. He also gave a special order, if you wake up, I told you not to rush back to the military camp, saying that the Tuanjie Camp will be officially established in three days, and you can visit Penglai City at will in the next two days. By the way, Feng Wulang also left you 10,000 yuan on the cabinet, saying that it was for you to shop for pocket money. In addition, he said that he would have to go to that matter in the past two days. If you have anything to look for him, go directly to Fengfu in the north of the city to find him."

Li Jing nodded. If Feng and Cui were not in a bad relationship, Li Jing would have thought that although Feng Liang was a bit playboy, he was still a bit playboy and stylish. But he also knew that since he was Cui's disciple, if it was possible, he still needed to keep a certain distance from the Feng family.

After asking the guy about the bathroom, Li Jing brought a few buckets of cold water, asked for some soapy towels, and took a stimulating cold shower. After taking a shower, he changed into the blue shirt and robe he had just asked the guy to go to the ready-to-wear shop, and he felt much more comfortable immediately.

Looking at the blue shirt on his body, Li Jing smiled. In the early Tang Dynasty, the blue shirt was originally a clothing color for eighth and nine rank officials, but later, the eighth and nine rank officials also wore green official robes of sixth and seventh rank officials, and the blue shirts became the clothing color of literati. Li Jing had obtained the qualification for tribute before and was qualified to wear it. But in fact, Li Jing had never worn a blue shirt until now.

The guy who bought clothes was really smart. He knew that Li Jing was now a disciple of the governor, so he chose a blue shirt to buy clothes. After paying the money, Li Jing, who was in a good mood, even rewarded the guy with ten cents. How could he say that Li Jing is now a rich man, not only has 10,000 yuan in his cabinet, but also has 500 yuan in his arms.

When they returned to the house, several people were still asleep. Li Jing went up and kicked them up.

"Brother Xiucai, let's sleep for a while, you're so sleepy." Xiao Shitou said in a daze with his eyes closed.

Li Jing smiled and said, "Get up quickly, let me tell you a good thing, I'll share the money."

"Spending money, what's the money?" The little carpenter opened his eyes first.

Li Jing was relaxed, but in fact he was still a little worried about telling the story of selling their first military merits. Then, Li Jing stood there nervously, waiting for the reaction of several people.

Silence, a long silence.

Li Jing couldn't help but wonder how to explain it. Although he thought it was good to Xiao Shitou and the others, he had already collected all the money without asking their opinions. If they couldn't figure it out and didn't agree, what should they do?

"Brother Xiucai, do you say that the three military meritorious heads have been sold?"

“Sold.”

"Sold two hundred and eighty cents?"

"Yes, in addition, Feng Liang gave me a total of 500 stagnants and said that the rest was considered thanks to me. I don't plan to ask for this money, and all of them are yours." Li Jing said.

Wang Xiaoshitou and the others sat there blankly. After a long time, Xiaoshitou suddenly shouted: "Little carpenter, please help me calculate it. One thousand yuan, how much is this five hundred yuan, and how much is two hundred and eighty yuan?"

"There are too many, I can't calculate it." The little carpenter, Xiao Que, was very clever, but he was suddenly stunned at this time. The number had long exceeded the scope of his plan.

"Two-eighty stakes are 280,000 yuan, five hundred stakes are 500,000 yuan. These three first-level skills are from the four of you, small stones, small carpenters, small hills, and thin dogs. If you share the same amount of 500,000 yuan, you can share 125,000 yuan." Li Jing blurted out and helped them calculate.

The thin dog was frightened by the number and murmured: "A bucket of sorghum costs one hundred yuan, how much sorghum does this 125,000 yuan cost?"

"1250 dou, or 57 stones, nearly seven thousand kilograms."

"Brother Xiucai, is it seven thousand pounds per person?"

"Yes, each person has seven thousand pounds."

"Sorghum is served with wild vegetables and bran. It only takes one pound of sorghum a day. If it is seven thousand pounds, then it can be eaten for more than 7,000 days. If it is 365 days a year, wouldn't it be eaten for twenty years?" The little carpenter learned to be a carpenter with his father since he was a child, and he knew how to calculate the calculations. He turned his fingers and calculated for a long time. If this money was enough for his family to eat for twenty years, he was shocked.

Li Jing looked at the young people planning with their hands and feet there, and was so busy that he couldn't help but say, "You guys give me a message, do you agree with this?"

Xiao Shitou looked at Li Jing with a strange expression: "Brother Xiucai, is there such a good thing? Didn't you lie to us? Did the Feng and other people talk nonsense after drinking too much? The three bandits' military achievements actually exchanged more than 20,000 kilograms of sorghum with us?"

The other people also had the same expression as Xiao Shitou, as if they thought Li Jingbugang had made a big joke with them early in the morning.

Li Jing was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help thinking about it. It wasn't that Feng Liang was talking nonsense after drinking, he was really joking with him. But after just thinking about it this way, Li Jing immediately remembered that he was still holding a 500-ton cent flying money in his arms, which would be fine. What's more, there was still a ten thousand pocket money left by Feng Liang on the cabinet in Wangxianlou.

He reached out and took out the flying money from his arms and Yang Yang said, "I know what's wrong? This is the flying money. With this flying money, you can get five hundred stags of money or equivalent silk or rice grain at any Xuanhe Ruiguifang."

"Brother Xiucai, that's just a piece of paper?" Xigou said with a puzzled look on his face.

Li Jing beat him in hatred, then gritted his teeth and said, "This is not paper, this is flying money, this is not ordinary paper, this piece of paper is worth 500 jin."

Looking at Li Jing's serious expression, Xiao Shitou and the others believed it a little.

"What brother said just now is true?"

"Really, it's even more true than Kaiyuan Tongbao."

Xiao Shitou and his men were half crazy at the moment, and they were jogging around in their calf shorts, screaming.

"You haven't said you agree or not?"

"Agree, why don't you agree? The brain of Feng's surname is broken, we are not broken." Several people shouted in unison.

After a long time, Li Jing calmed down the few people. The last few people discussed how to divide the money. Originally, Li Jing planned to give the three of them the money, but the three of them refused. Finally, after a long discussion, Xiao Shitou and the others suggested that Li Jing would take 300,000 yuan for the 500,000 yuan for the 500,000 yuan for the 300,000 yuan for each Xiao Shitou and the others would give the rest to Wang Dong, Wang Liugen and the others for twenty thousand yuan.

This result surprised Li Jing, and Wang Dong and others even more surprised. They had just heard of such a large amount of money, and they felt a little unbalanced. They felt that they had come out together and dealt with the bandits together, but they didn't kill half of them, and they didn't have any money or credit.

Now when I heard that Xiao Shitou and the others were going to give them 20,000 yuan each, I was so surprised that I couldn't speak.

Li Jing smiled and said, "Since you are willing to give money to everyone, I don't think so. Xiao Shitou, you four will share the 280,000 yuan equally, and each one will share 70,000 yuan. Then there will be 220,000 yuan left, and Wang Dong and the others will get 50,000 yuan each, and I will get 20,000 yuan. If you share the money, don't spend it randomly. Let the money be taken back to the village, buy land, build houses, buy grain and livestock, and save the rest. In the future, you will have to marry a wife for you."

Wang Dong was the first to object: "Brother, this money was exchanged for Xiao Shitou and his military merits, so we can't take it. If you want to give it to us, we can just get 10,000 yuan per person, and the rest should be taken by me. In fact, we know in our hearts that if we didn't have my brother's fighting to command, we wouldn't have killed the bandits. If I hadn't become the disciple of the governor now, people wouldn't have paid so much money for us. In the future, we will follow me, and there will definitely be many opportunities to earn meritorious service. This time, we will get 10,000 yuan to buy some food for our family."

Liu Gen and the others nodded in agreement with Wang Dong's words. Although there were some minor frictions between us in the past, they all came from the same village. These days, with Li Jing, they are becoming more and more impressed by Li Jing.

"Since you say that, then I think this is what it means. The credit is Xiao Shitou and the others. You four are one hundred thousand, and Xiaodong and I are two thousand. Don't argue anymore. We are all brothers from the same village and will rely on each other in the future. We all get up and wash off the alcohol, then we go and withdraw the money and ask someone to send it home."

"Okay! Now the family will not have to worry about food." A group of young people began to get up excitedly.
