Chapter 832: Getting Off the Horse (3)


Such words, which may seem offensive and rude today, could not be said to be rebellious in the Ming Dynasty, nor could they be said to be offensive to the imperial envoy.

After all, this is an era of concubine trading.

As long as the starting price is paid, the concubine can trade at any time.

A chieftain like Cen Meng has powerful weapons in his hands and is a rebellious person.

If he can exchange a beautiful concubine for the obedience of this army, many people think this is the most cost-effective solution.

Buy and sell.

At least compared to him getting angry after being rejected and leading troops to rebel, this exchange can be said to be happy for everyone and save many lives.

If the situation were different, someone might come out to do Yang Chengzu's work and persuade him to agree to the deal.

But Yang Chengzu's expression darkened: "Cen Meng, you said you wanted my concubine" "No, I don't want it, but I want to exchange it with you.

We natives are not like you Han people.

We don't have so many ways.

We only know that between good friends, everything can be shared.

I really want to be with you, a Han official.

Be friends, don’t you want to be friends with me or do you think we natives are not worthy of you Han people and are not qualified to be friends with you?”

"No, no matter whether they are natives or Han people, as long as they are loyal to the court, everyone can be friends.

However, a person who thinks that women can be exchanged at will is not qualified to be my friend."

Yang Chengzu didn't intend to save any face for Cen Meng.

He looked at him coldly.

The majesty of a superior person on his body made the chieftain lose his arrogance and took two steps back involuntarily.

Yang Chengzu refused to give up.

"To me, my concubines are my most precious family members.

Even if they cost me ten thousand taels of gold, I can't be tempted by them.

You actually treat them as goods and think they can be traded.

Why do you have the nerve to stand in front of me?

Go back to your barracks, I don’t want to see your face.”

"You are insulting Tianzhou Cen's dignity."

Cen Meng angrily put his hand on the back of the knife behind his back, but then, the hand froze there and did not dare to move.

He has not learned martial arts from the Central Plains, but in the dangerous living environment and fighting against nature, he has long developed skills and perceptions that are comparable to those of first-class masters.

As soon as he moved his hand, he felt an inexplicable pain between his brows.

Who knew who it was had locked him with a qi machine.

As long as he dared to draw the sword, he was guaranteed to be attacked with unusual force.

His subordinates had already seen the signs and began to make noise again.

Some people began to rush into the pacesetters maintaining the human wall, as if they wanted to separate them and rush to the front of the team.

Cen Meng plucked up the courage, released his hand from the handle of the knife, and pointed behind him, "My subordinates accepted the order from the imperial court and came to Guangzhou barefoot from their hometown.

As a result, you refused to give anything else except a meager amount of food."

Things.

Many of them have not eaten meat for a long time.

Since you are an imperial envoy, we will ask you for money.

Your emperor must keep his word and pay us what he promised.

Otherwise, I will give you money.

I can’t help you either.”

In fact, not only the wolf soldiers, but also the machine soldiers recruited from the civilian population and the newly formed battalions all had the problem of arrears in food and salary.

At this time, several other military officers also began to discuss quietly, wanting to ask for food and pay.

They were not natives, and they didn't dare to come here to make money.

They could only say weird things and beat drums.

Yang Chengzu didn't seem to realize that he was on the verge of mutiny.

He still looked at Cen Meng arrogantly.

"It's a joke about military pay.

I'm new here.

I don't know how much military pay a person should be given.

It's impossible for you to say how much it is.

It's not a disaster."

I have brought your men back to the barracks immediately, and after I have settled down, I will immediately make up for the food and salary you owe, and I will ensure that no one is short of pay."

"I'm sorry, we have waited too long.

When we set off from our hometown, you Han people told us to wait.

When we arrived in Guangzhou, we still had to wait.

After the Chinese New Year, we continued to wait, saying that we would not be able to do anything until the imperial envoy came.

You Now we are still asked to wait, why don't we explain it to you?

Although we natives are poor and weak, we cannot be slaughtered by others.

We must get money today."

Cen Meng's momentum gradually grew stronger, and Yang Chengzu coldly snorted, "You can't do this if you have to get the money.

I can guarantee that you will see the money today.

Dayou, pass my order to move a few boxes down and let them Chieftain, look what the silver looks like."

Although Yu Dayou couldn't get along with Yang Chengzu, he was not ungrateful, nor was he a bastard.

His marriage was negotiated by Yang Chengzu for him.

If Yang Chengzu hadn't been the mediator in a family like the Baoshu Xie family, he probably wouldn't have been able to reach the top.

He was originally a hereditary member of one hundred households.

As for what position he could hold, he had to participate in the martial arts competition before he could truly decide.

However, thanks to Yang Chengzu's recommendation, he is now a third-grade commander.

As for the actual teaching issue, it is actually to enable him to serve under Yang Chengzu, so it has never been implemented.

According to the situation disclosed by Yang Chengzu, in the future his actual instructor will still be in the north, exchanging lives with Beilu with swords and guns.

With such support, and because he himself disliked Cen Meng, a chieftain who jumped up and down in front of the imperial officials, after listening to the instructions, he took a few steps to the boat docked.

At this time, some soldiers had already walked down carrying heavy large boxes.

These red-painted wooden boxes were very conspicuous from just now, but they were regarded as boxes and cages for the imperial envoy's personal belongings.

Some people were estimating how much land the imperial envoy had scraped from Zhejiang.

Such a savings.

Yu Dayou walked onto the springboard in twos and twos, took a wooden box from the hands of four officers and soldiers, and without changing his expression, he raised the wooden box high above his head and walked down the springboard as usual.

"Creak, creak."

The thick wooden springboard made a heart-wrenching sound.

Cen Meng's eyes straightened slightly.

The weight of this wooden box did not seem to be very light.

Yu Dayou had already arrived in front of everyone and gently put down the wooden box.

His expression was as usual, no sign of exertion.

He stretched out his hand to open the lid of the box and pointed with his hand, "Isn't the military pay you want right here?"

The box was surrounded by red silk, and inside were neatly stacked snowflakes and silver.

Not only Cen Meng, but also some strong men were stunned and speechless this time.

This box of silver weighs at least several hundred kilograms.

He can lift it back and forth so easily.

How strong is this military attaché of the Ming Dynasty?

Zhuang people respect heroes the most.

Except for the chieftain or the great wizard, they don't admire power very much, but they admire heroes with infinite strength and martial arts from the bottom of their hearts.

Even among these wolf soldiers, few of these wolf soldiers could compare to Yu Dayou's physical strength, which immediately caused many wolf soldiers to cheer loudly.

Yang Chengzu pointed at the neatly stacked boxes behind him again, "These boxes are the same as this one, and they contain all silver.

When I come, there are Yangzhou salt merchants who pay 600,000 taels, and Zhejiang elders who lose money."

Seven thousand stones of millet are rare, and the grain is plentiful and well-paid.

As long as you are loyal to the court, there is no need to grudge the reward.

If someone wants to mutiny and seize the silver, my subordinates will probably not agree.

Where is the new army?"

Xu Tai waved the flag in his hand a few times.

The new troops who had disembarked early in the morning but had not attracted much attention quickly formed a formation under the leadership of their respective commanders.

They held their spears high, and the next row took off their blunderbuss. , shouting loudly, the sound shook the sky:
