Chapter 823: Counterpart aid is a powerful tool

(0823)

【Today's third update is delivered!】

The vegetarian dishes in Tianning Temple are indeed famous far and wide, with all colors, fragrance and taste. In the side hall of Tianning Temple, the rich vegetarian dishes are floating in the air with a little sandalwood. However, under the current circumstances, who is interested in tasting the delicious food of vegetarian dishes?

What they were concerned about was Chen Lingfei. To be more precise, they were concerned about the news conveyed by Chen Lingfei. Their hearts were completely hung on their throats at this time. Even if they were dragon meat, they would not feel the slightest fragrance in their mouths.

But Chen Lingfei has never disclosed any information since she invited everyone to the table. She knew that these people wanted to know what information they wanted, but she did not say it on purpose. If this woman's temperament became better, all the guests present could only wait hard. Who told them to neglect this woman before?

Many people quietly turned their eyes at Lu Hanzhong and asked him to lure Chen Lingfei into speaking. Only when Chen Lingfei's words box is opened can they have the chance to interrupt. Only when everyone has the chance to interrupt, Chen Lingfei will slowly reveal the relevant information.

Lu Hanzhong said consciously or unintentionally: "I heard that the young lady just came back from *** and found that the business opportunities there were quite good? I also had some interest in *** development. I wonder if the young lady can recommend one or two?"

Chen Lingfei nodded and said casually: "The market for *** is very big, and the little woman can't eat it alone. If Uncle Lu is interesting, he might as well try it. However, there are only four places in the market for ***, so it's impossible to continue to add people now. If Uncle Lu is interested, he has to beat the edge drum."

There is a way!

The merchants around immediately looked at each other.

Since Chen Lingfei is interested in introducing Lu Hanzhong to the ***, I believe it will not be detrimental to Lu Hanzhong. Since it is detrimental to Lu Hanzhong, the fate of the others should not be very miserable. Their hearts slowly hang down.

Lu Hanzhong said with a smile: "I don't know if the young lady lacks manpower or funds? I do have such a thought. Please give me some advice."

Chen Lingfei said casually: "Everything is lacking."

There is a way!

The merchants around them looked at each other again.

As long as Chen Lingfei needs it, they can prescribe the right medicine and win Chen Lingfei's favor. As long as Chen Lingfei is satisfied and blows a breath beside Zhang Zhun's pillow, perhaps, they can easily pass this disaster. Optimistic people feel that there is no big problem and start paying attention to the vegetarian dishes on the table.

Lu Hanzhong said with a smile: "Miss, you are from the Suzhou lineage in Jiangnan, and you are actually the same clan as our Yangzhou. Our merchants in Yangzhou are the most loyal and loyal, and they are willing to help each other. If the lady encounters any difficulties, we are willing to help each other. Please don't see each other and share with us."

Wang Dalu added at the right time: "That's right. If the young lady encounters any difficulties, we will help each other unconditionally. We may not be able to help the young lady alone, but so many people unite, I believe that all the big problems can be solved."

Chen Lingfei said calmly: "Everyone present is either my uncle or uncle or local parent-officials. It is really fortunate for the little girl to invite everyone. Everyone is so kind, and the little girl is really grateful. It's just that this difficulty is still overcome by the little girl."

The merchants around them all looked at me and looked at you, feeling full of loss. Especially those merchants who started to taste vegetarian dishes kept their chopsticks in the air. Not good, this door that had just opened was closed so quickly. Could it be that there would be any variables?

Lu Hanzhong was also uneasy and hurriedly said, "Miss, we are all sincere. Please don't be dissatisfied. As long as we can do it, we will work hard to do it. As the saying goes, there are many people, and the power is big, and everyone is high in firewood. We all twisted it into a rope. All things that are so big can be solved. Don't be polite, Miss!"

Chen Lingfei still smiled and said, "Everyone is so polite. The little girl is really grateful. But the little girl doesn't need help. If you have any trouble, everyone will worry."

Qin Liangde stood up and smoothed out and said, "Young lady, please be polite."

Lu Hanzhong's eyes rolled, feeling that there was a mystery in Chen Lingfei's words, so he hurriedly staggered the topic and said, "If there is any difficulty in the Governor, we are willing to help us."

Chen Lingfei nodded with a smile and said in a leisurely manner: "Uncle Lu, when you mentioned the governor, the little woman really knows that he has some difficulties, and don't know whether to talk about it?"

Lu Hanzhong hurriedly said, "Miss, please speak."

Chen Lingfei said in a casual manner: "Everyone knows that our army suffered heavy losses in Northern Zhili and fighting against the Tartars, and the people of Northern Zhili also suffered heavy losses. To rebuild Northern Zhili, a lot of money is required. With our army's current financial resources, we may not be able to afford it."

Lu Hanzhong said without hesitation: "The Hu Ben Army drove out the Tartars and fought bloody battles to protect the safety of the people in Jiangnan. We should naturally give them all, and have money and work hard. I personally am willing to donate 500,000 taels of silver as the military funds of the Hu Ben Army. I also ask the Governor to accept it with a smile. Dear colleagues, you should also donate generously."

He started, and the other merchants expressed their intention to donate. This was prepared early in the morning. As long as they could use money to buy Zhang Zhun, they would be willing to pay for as much money. For a moment, you were fifty, I was thirty, I was twenty, and I was twenty, and my voice was endless. In the end, the donations of dozens of people combined, a total of six or seven million taels of silver.

Such donation numbers are absolutely unprecedented. Qin Liangde couldn't help but curse himself secretly, "Damn, you guys used to cry in front of me, but now, when the Hu Ben Army's butcher knife is raised, you will be endless soon? Six or seven million taels of silver are simply a terrifying number."

When the merchants actively donated, Chen Lingfei never said a word, but just listened with a smile. The merchants thought she was praising such behavior, and her heart was gradually let go. It seems that Zhang Zhun could indeed buy it with money. Who in this world would not be moved by gold, silver and jewelry?

Who knew that after they actively donated, Chen Lingfei said in a casual manner: "Thank you for your generous donation. The governor's meaning is that the Hu Ben Army does not need your support. However, Bei Zhili does need your assistance. If you are willing, please donate some money to the people of Bei Zhili."

Lu Hanzhong hurriedly said, "This is what it should be, it should be."

Chen Lingfei said with a smile: "You are actively donating just now. The little woman didn't remember it clearly at once, so she asked someone to copy it on white paper. Please confirm whether there are any mistakes in your donation numbers? If there is no mistake, I will hand this number directly to the Governor."

Lu Hanzhong hurriedly took the white paper, but only glanced at it, his face changed immediately. He handed the white paper to Wang Dalu. After Wang Dalu looked at it, his face also changed immediately. The white paper was passed down one by one, and almost all the people present changed their faces.

The numbers on the white paper are not the numbers they donated just now, but the ones they wrote, but they had written by Chen Lingfei himself. If calculated according to the proportion, they would almost be about 80% of their own property. Chen Lingfei didn't know where they knew their property clearly. As a result, when they took the initiative to donate, they tampered with more than 80% of their property as donations.

robbery!

This is a naked robbery!

I just refused hypocritically, but now I immediately threw out a donation number of people who cut off their flesh and bones. Isn’t this a life-threatening thing? Such hands and feet are indeed too bad! Even if I want money, there is no way to ask for money like this!

Everyone present was very dissatisfied with Chen Lingfei's behavior, and felt a sudden rise of anger filled their chests. But, even if they were not satisfied, what could they do? Should they rise up and resist?

According to Chen Lingfei's approach, they can at least save 20% of their financial resources and their lives. If they do not follow the implementation, they will be afraid that even the last 20% will not be able to be saved, and they may have their homes confiscated and exterminated from then on.

Chen Lingfei's eyes slowly swept across their faces and asked knowingly: "Do you have any objections to this number?"

No one said anything.

People were under the eaves and had to bow their heads. They were not stupid enough to tell Chen Lingfei that the numbers on them were written by you, not by me. They were sure that if they said this, they would definitely not be able to live this year. Perhaps, behind Chen Lingfei's smile, someone who was ignorant jumped out and killed the Qiqi flag.

Seeing that all the merchants had all agreed, Chen Lingfei smiled with satisfaction and said, "For everyone's enthusiastic donation, the little girl thanks everyone for the people in Northern Zhili. Don't worry, the people of the various prefectures in Northern Zhili will form a large delegation to Yangzhou to supervise your donations and also supervise the use of donations. I can tell you clearly again that our Hu Ben Army will never interfere in this money."

The merchants present complained even more. Someone was going to do some tricks, but now they immediately found that all the tricks were blocked. A group of people were drawn from Beizhili to Yangzhou to supervise their donations and supervise the use of donations. I don’t know who came up with such a vicious method.

Will the people in Beizhili feel at ease with them, Yangzhou merchants? Of course not! Since they don’t, the only thing they can do is to stare at them all the time for twelve hours a day. What do you dare to do if you are accidentally discovered and don’t need the Hu Ben Army to take action, they will be beaten into meat sauce by the angry people in Beizhili.

It is conceivable how eager the people in Northern Zhili were to rebuild their homes after being poisoned by the Tartars. It is conceivable how much emotions they would have once they found themselves deceived. As long as the Hu Ben Army incited a little, this angry feeling would evolve into a vast sea of ​​blood, which directly led to their wealth and destruction.

"It's so poisonous!"

"It's really too poisonous!"

"Why is this Zhang Zhun so vicious?"

Everyone present couldn't help but curse a few words after hearing Chen Lingfei's introduction. Your Hu Ben Army did not interfere, but a group of Northern Zhili delegations that were more eager for money than the Hu Ben Army. Isn't this a tiger who doesn't do anything, but lets a group of golden leopards come up?

Chen Lingfei smiled slightly and added slowly: "Don't worry, in order to ensure that all the donations procedures are going smoothly, these representatives from Beizhili are all real poor people, and they all have unforgettable hatreds with the Tartars."

Lu Hanzhong and others lamented helplessly again. It was over, it was completely over. Zhang Zhunlai made such a move, and they didn't even have the chance to complain. The Hu Ben Army was under the banner of such righteousness. If they had the courage to complain, it would be equivalent to despising the people of Northern Zhili. Do you know what the consequences would be if they despised the people of Northern Zhili? No one dared to think about it.

Qin Liangde couldn't help but nodded slightly, expressing his admiration for the Hu Ben Army's move. If there were any commanders, there would be any army. If this resolution was indeed what Zhang Zhun thought of it himself, it would be possible for him to pull the Hu Ben Army with one hand. Such a resolution indeed captured the pain of the big merchants in Yangzhou, and it was impossible to blame the Hu Ben Army.

Chen Lingfei suddenly patted her palms gently, and Miss Sisi came over with a stack of paper and gave each of them to each of them. Chen Lingfei casually said, "This information was given to the little girl by the Governor. Please study it carefully."

Lu Hanzhong took the paper with a stiff gesture, glanced quickly, feeling very confused and novel, so he carefully reviewed it from beginning to end, without missing a single word. Until he was sure that he could see each word on it clearly and understand each word on it, he looked at the people around him with a little suspicion and found that their faces were also full of suspicion. So he turned to look at Chen Lingfei and said with uncertainty: "Miss, what is counterpart aid?"

Chen Lingfei nodded gently and said in a leisurely manner: "This is a new concept proposed by the Governor, that is, each region is responsible for the reconstruction of a region. No matter how much money you invest, no matter how much reconstruction process you are in, no matter who you are responsible for, we only need the result. As long as the results meet the requirements, we will pass the test."

Lu Hanzhong and others frowned quietly. They each had a copy of information, and the contents in the information were naturally clear and clear. Only this counterpart aid was really a fresh word. They were sure that they had never seen this word before.

Obviously, only Zhang Zhun could think of the words such as counterpart aid. Northern Zhili was destroyed and it was impossible to rebuild the Tiger Army alone. The Tiger Army did not have so much manpower, material resources and financial resources to rebuild Northern Zhili. Fortunately, the Wenchuan earthquake gave Zhang Zhun a lot of inspiration.

Northern Zhili, which was ruined by the Tartars, was not much different from Wenchuan after the earthquake. The Hejian Prefecture, Zhending Prefecture and Baoding Prefecture, which suffered the most severe damage, all needed to invest a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to rebuild. The first thing Zhang Zhun thought of was to build counterpart aid, and to require several relatively wealthy prefectures to be responsible for rebuilding these prefectures.

The procedures for counterpart assistance in Wenchuan are basically the same. Zhang Zhun designated the various prefectures in Nanzhili. Only the various prefectures in Nanzhili have such economic strength. Zhang Zhun specially designated the Songjiang Prefecture to support the reconstruction of Hejian Prefecture. Suzhou Prefecture is responsible for supporting the reconstruction of Baoding Prefecture. Changzhou Prefecture is responsible for supporting the reconstruction of Zhending Prefecture.

The above three prefectures are the richest in Southern Zhili. With the economic strength of each prefecture, there is indeed no problem in rebuilding several prefectures in Northern Zhili. The problem is that the money of these three prefectures is in the hands of a few gentry or large merchants. Zhang Zhun asked these three prefectures to pay for the reconstruction of Northern Zhili, but in fact, these gentry help the reconstruction of Northern Zhili.

Is it possible for the gentry and big merchants of these three prefectures to agree? Of course it is impossible! Who is willing to take out the money in their pockets? Obviously, they will definitely unite to fight against Zhang Zhun and against the Hu Ben Army. Such a result is exactly what Zhang Zhun needs.

When Zhang Zhun wants to march into Jiangnan, he always has to find an excuse. He cannot come to the army and kill people randomly without distinction. If that is the case, Zhang Zhun cannot become a big climate. At most, he can only be a bandit and never achieve great things. Now, what Zhang Zhun needs is such an excuse.

Almost everyone present could conclude that once these three prefectures rejected Zhang Zhun's proposal, the Hu Ben Army composed of the people of Northern Zhili would soon land in these three prefectures. Of course, the information received by these people of Northern Zhili must have been processed by Zhang Zhun. For example, these unscrupulous merchants in Southern Zhili would not save them when they die, but should not be spared. It is almost conceivable that the people of Northern Zhili would not be stingy with those gentry without conscience.

Lu Hanzhong said with some confusion: "Miss, what the governor means..."

Shen Lingfei said with a smile: "The Governor wants to invite Uncle Chen, Uncle Wang, and Uncle Lu and other people to visit the above three prefectures to discuss the pros and cons, mobilize local gentry to donate to help the reconstruction of Northern Zhili."

Lu Hanzhong, Wang Dalu, and Chen Lusheng's expressions changed suddenly. Zhang Zhun wanted them to commit a lawsuit! Once they arrived at the above three prefectures, they would be the envoys of the Hu Ben Army. No matter how they explained, others would think that they were working hard for Zhang Zhun. If they had labeled the Hu Ben Army, they would never have thought of taking them off in the future.

The other businesses were completely stunned. Lu, Lu and Lu were their backbone. If the three of them were sent away, the rest would basically be a mess of loose sand. Basically, once the three of them left, the others would not want to organize any resistant activities, and they could only donate their money.

It's so vicious. Zhang Zhun really calculated them too accurately. If the three of them didn't leave, the Hu Ben Army would definitely have a second move. If the three of them left, the others would be unable to fight against the Hu Ben Army at all. Whether it came openly or secretly, they could not be opponents of the Hu Ben Army.

Qin Liangde secretly admired this information about counterpart aid. Zhang Zhun was able to think of this idea. Especially when Lu, Lu and Lu went to the three palaces in Jiangnan to engage in activities, it was simply a waste of their lives! For the safety of their own family, the three of them must immediately raise enough donations, otherwise, once they leave, God knows what will happen.

The most sinister thing in this world is that no matter what you do, if you take the title of righteousness, you will not have the opportunity to refute others. Zhang Zhun is like this now. Under such a banner, he directly incited the people of Northern Zhili and rushed to the front line. He not only won the hearts of Northern Zhili, but also seriously mixed a lot of sand into the gentry system in Jiangnan.

Chen Lingfei smiled and said, "The little girl knows that everyone needs some time to think, so the little girl will give everyone enough time to think."

Wang Dalu and Chen Lusheng looked at each other quietly, and then subconsciously looked at Lu Hanzhong. The three of them felt a little powerless, as if they were about to be exhausted. Their lives were indeed saved. However, the road to the future is still full of thorns. It is not easy for the three of them to live freely.

Give everyone enough time to consider it? Or give everyone enough time to escape? Why should the Hu Ben Army give them enough time to escape? Could it be that the Hu Ben Army deliberately let them escape, and then follow them, catch them, and have a bunch of trouble? If so, the Hu Ben Army can take away all the remaining 20% ​​of its assets.

Chen Lusheng pondered for a moment, stood up with his teeth and said slowly: "Miss, I wonder when will the Governor come to Yangzhou? Or, at the right time, let's visit the Governor?"

The people around him nodded frequently after hearing Chen Lusheng's words. They could understand Chen Lusheng's words. Their only request now is to see Zhang Zhu in person and get accurate information from Zhang Zhu's mouth. Well, to be precise, it was Zhang Zhu's personal promise. If the money is handed over and there is a liquidation in the end, the family will be destroyed, as if Chen Wansan is like this, then he will die unjustly.

Chen Lingfei smiled and said, "Governor should be here soon, don't worry."

Chen Lusheng gritted his teeth and said slowly: "I hope to meet the governor in person before leaving."

When things have developed to this point, he has no chance of resisting it. Since he cannot resist, he can only win Zhang Zhun's personal promise to ensure their own safety.

Chen Lingfei smiled slightly and said lightly: "The little girl doesn't know when the governor will come. Everyone may be able to wait for a few days."

Chen Lusheng and others all breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Zhang Zhun didn't come, they could continue to delay in Yangzhou for a while. During this period, they could just summon relevant personnel to discuss countermeasures.

Suddenly, someone rushed over and whispered something in Shen Lingfei's ear. Chen Lingfei's face was happy, then stood up and said with a smile: "Governor is here. Do you have any requests? Let's talk to the Governor directly."
Chapter completed!
