Chapter 222 Tiger and Wolf

"Boom,!" A shell suddenly exploded in Zhang Mingjian's head, making him dizzy and tremble. What is the official market in the Yuan Dynasty? The official market in the Yuan Dynasty is to clearly mark the price, and you have to spend money as long as you want to be promoted. Yangzhou is the richest place in the world. During the Taiping period, if you want to seek a position as the general manager of Yangzhou Road, you will definitely not be able to get it without 400,000 or 500,000 yuan. Now, although Zhu Tuhuo immediately came to the city, he probably would have to have more than 200,000 yuan, which is impossible to be lower than this price.

"Mo Jiang is ashamed, Prince, Prince, Prince, Mo Jiang really doesn't understand what Prince means." With his intuition, Zhang Mingjian believed that Timur was not in good intentions. However, the great attraction of becoming a third-rank high-ranking official made him unable to refuse this fragrant bait. At this time, becoming the general manager of Yangzhou Road must want to fight Zhu Bashiyi to death, but if he swallowed the bait and spit out the hook, the court could take back the official position he had already given.

"Zhu Bashiyi comes in full force. I and your prince of Zhennan have decided to avoid his cherry blossom for the time being." Sure enough, the benefits of Timur not spending are not so easy to get. Soon, a exchange condition was opened. "When we were not here, all the troops and all the cities on Yangzhou Road will be left to you to defend. In addition, in other aspects, we will follow the old rules."

'It turns out that Zhang really wanted to stay in Yangzhou City to die for you, and I also wanted Zhang to give you another big sum of money to work hard,' Zhang Mingjian's brows were frowning quickly, and his hot heart quickly became chilled. He would never do such a stupid thing. Even if Timur made a higher promise, he was not so stupid that he exchanged his life for it.

"I didn't let you defend Yangzhou." Timur Buhua had no intention of lying to deceive the other party so simply. Seeing that Zhang's face was wrong, he immediately added with a smile, "General Zhang is both civil and military, and loyal and brave. How can I let you die easily? My husband means that you stay in Yangzhou and try your best to delay the enemy's pace for the two kings of Zhen'an. How long can I delay it? It can also give up the city and escape. If the situation is wrong, you can immediately abandon the city and escape, and bring your brothers to Luzhou to meet us. As long as you do your best, I promise that no one dares to cause trouble for you in the future. Even if you are forced to surrender to the butcher Zhu, as long as you find a chance in the future, I promise that the position of Yangzhou Road General Manager is still your Zhang Mingjian."

"Boom." It seemed like he was hit by a shot again. Zhang Mingjian felt that his head was messy and he was appointed as the general manager of Yangzhou, but he didn't have to bear any responsibility for defending the territory. Once the situation was not good, he could still leave and even give Yangzhou City to Zhu Butcher. What he had to pay was to rely on the tall walls of Yangzhou City to hold Zhu Butcher for a few days, so that he could not follow and kill Timuer Buhua and Tuohuan Buhua's uncle and nephew. There was such a simple task in the world. If Xuan let Wang really be sincere, what would he do if he patted his chest now? Anyway, at least he could hand over the city to Zhu Butcher, learn from Zhang Shicheng's appearance, and be a prince under Zhu Butcher's wings. With the money in Yangzhou City, can't you find enough people to eat food and serve as a soldier?

"What, General Zhang doesn't want to." After not getting Zhang Mingjian's response, Timur Buhua suddenly became a little impatient, frowned, and said loudly, "That's all, the forced melon is not sweet. Since General Zhang is unwilling to seize the opportunity, I will give this opportunity to others. It just so happened that Liao Daheng and Zhu Liangzu, under my command, both suffered a great loss today. I will use the position of chief and deputy general manager of this road to compensate them!"

"I am willing, I am willing." Zhang Mingjian was reluctant to let the benefit of almost getting the hand. He immediately opened his mouth and responded loudly, "I am willing to work hard for the two princes."

"There is no need to die." Timur blanched the corner of his mouth with a difficult amplitude outsiders, and encouraged with a kind look, "Although the state affairs are difficult at present, it is not time to let you die. Remember to try your best to hold Zhu Butcher for a few days. In addition, you can use the money and grains of other cities, and I have to move the money and grains in the Yangzhou City Treasury to Luzhou. This matter of recruiting people and bravery must also be settled on you."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I will do things beautifully." At this moment, Zhang Mingjian was not at ease with the trap in Timur's words, and he lit his head like pounding garlic, for fear of slowing down his promise, and the position of the Yangzhou general manager fell into the hands of others.

"Okay, I will hand over the retreat to you. After returning to Yangzhou City, you can take the position of Yangzhou Road Chief Supervisor for a while. Remember, you must keep a useful body so that you can serve the court in the future. Remember, remember!" Timur Buhua was very satisfied with Zhang Mingjian's performance. He patted him twice on his shoulder and gave a smile.

Zhang Mingjian was immediately photographed and his heart was hot and his eyes were hot. He really wished he could cut his chest a few times to show his loyalty. It was not until the backs of Timur Buhua and Tuohuan Buhua's uncle and nephew went far away that he finally calmed down, pulled out the sword from his waist, chopped it up a few times on the short tree beside him, and shouted in a low voice: "Zhi Ma, at this time, I finally remembered that I had come. What have I been doing long ago? Do you really think that my head was kicked by a donkey? Who is stupid? Let's take a look."

"That's right, the fourth brother, the old thief clearly wanted to take a false reputation today and trick us into continuing to die in vain." Qianhu Yu Darui, who had just watched the entire conversation, walked forward and gritted his teeth and agreed.

He did something stupid with the Huai'an army once today, and he would never want to repeat the second time in his life. It was not that the two armies were fighting, but that he lined up and walked over one after another, allowing the Huai'an army to massacre with cannons. In addition, Zhu Bashiyi was said to have even more powerful magic weapons, and he didn't have time to use them on the Qing army. If he didn't believe it, go and see Liao Daheng and Zhu Liangzu. The teams of tens of thousands of people under his command were originally retreating, but they couldn't even get together with two thousand teams.

"Sell us to Zhu Tuhu, we have to find him hundreds of thousands of yuan. This old thief is so good at making a big decision." Another Qing army general Qiu Zhengyi also came forward and shouted indignantly. He heard all the words of Timur just now. No matter how he thought, he felt that this matter was full of traps. Instead of taking the risk of stepping inside, it would be better to turn around now and walk away so that he would not be able to recover in the future.

"Yes, Zhang Touer, we can't be fooled."

"Let's not be fooled by this. Just go directly to the butcher Zhu. Who would like to be this fool manager? Let him be the one himself?"

"Yes, Brother Zhang, let's just turn against you now and go directly to the butcher Zhu. Liang's Tiemur didn't have the courage to send troops to chase him."

For a moment, there were many discussions everywhere, and everyone decided that Timur Buhua and Tuohuan Buhua had no intention of being kind, and everyone shouldn't continue to walk with their uncle and nephew.

Zhang Mingjian's eyes suddenly became extremely deep. He put his hands flat on both sides of his body, pressed them down hard, and said in a deep voice: "Don't yell, let's grab Yangzhou City first. Although I'm a little stupid, it's not that easy to cheat."

"Yes, but where did you get hundreds of thousands of quotas? I don't spend it to Timur to buy an official position." Qianhu Yu Darui guessed that Zhang Mingjian was reluctant to leave the position of Yangzhou Road General Manager and stammered.

"If you hold Yangzhou City in your hand, you are afraid that you will not be able to find hundreds of thousands of coins and raise millions of coins, it will probably be easy." Zhang Mingjian gritted his teeth and sneered, "I will sell the pot and get hundreds of thousands of coins for him first. As long as he is willing to leave as promised, I will not be afraid of not being able to recover the capital. Not only will I have to recover the capital, but we brothers will have to work alone in the future, and we will also have to put it all on this."

However, when everyone heard this, they were impressed by the admiration. It was Zhang Si Ge. He thought clearly what Yangzhou City is, the richest place in the world. Any wealthy merchant in the city was probably not less than one million yuan. After Timur left, everyone sent people to stand at the door of those people in the name of raising military pay. Who dared not give him money and chopped him up with one knife, and see how many chops his head could withstand it.

"But, but, fourth brother." Yu Darui still felt that it was inappropriate, so he put his mouth to Zhang Mingjian's ear and continued to whisper, "But Zhu Bashiyi is following us. If he hears that we are plundering the city, with his hatred of evil."

"Nonsense." Zhang Mingjian glanced at Yu Darui and curled his lips disdainfully, "Hate evil like hatred? Bastard. If he really wanted to hate evil like hatred, how could the big salt merchants in Huaian City die? When Zhang Jiusi took Gaoyou, did he have no blood at all? In the end, he took Gaoyou City and pretended that nothing had happened. What's more, Yangzhou City is still the territory of the Great Yuan Dynasty. I'm making some money in the territory of the Great Yuan Dynasty. What's the matter with the Great General of the Red Turban Army? Setting up checkpoints at both ends of the Magpie Bridge, and he's still in the sky."

"This, this" Yu Darui was refuted and had to retreat with a blushing face. Zhang Mingjian grabbed him and ordered in a very low voice, "But you are right to remind him, be careful to make the ten thousand-year-old ship, so I remember that in the prison in Yangzhou City, there was a Guangming Right Envoy under Liu Futong. After returning to the city, you immediately bring someone to quietly get him out for me, change into clean clothes, eat and drink, and find him two thin horses to ride on. If the situation is wrong, we might as well push the right envoy forward and let him fight with Zhu Butcher. I don't believe that Zhu Bayi's sword is fast, and he dares to cut Liu Futong on the shoulders of Liu Futong."
