Chapter 985 Zheng Jiu wants to see Mr. Jiang
Cousin Jiang Xijing led a team of people to Kang'an from Yingzhou, and then rushed to Suzhou with him and his adoptive father. Jiang Ling knew that Zheng Jiu had seen him, but he didn't have a deep impression because he did not perform well.
After Zheng Jiu entered the tent, Jiang Ling looked at him calmly. Zheng Jiu had a medium figure, temperament and appearance. Even if he passed by you, you would not pay special attention to him. In Chen Qingxia's words, Zheng Jiu is a type of person who is "very suitable for inquiring about news."
Zheng Jiu didn't know what Jiang Ling was looking for him, so he stood in the tent without saying a word and waited for Jiang Ling to give the order.
Jiang Ling deliberately paused for a while and found that Zheng Jiu was not panicked at all. From this, it can be seen that this person's nature is extraordinary. Jiang Ling then said, "Do you know what I'm looking for?"
Zheng Jue shook his head, "Zheng Jue doesn't know."
Jiang Lingxian asked, "Where are you? Why did you go to Yingzhou for being sentenced to military service?"
Zheng Jue has answered this question several times, so he can handle it easily. "The villain is from Yushangou Village, Lankao County, Jingji. After Yushan was given the name Tongxue Mountain by the emperor, the villain moved with the villagers because he accidentally entered Tongxue Mountain and was captured by Yulin Guard officers and soldiers and sent to Jingzhao Prefecture."
Jiang Ling continued to ask, "What did you make a living before being arrested?"
Zheng Jue continued, "Little people, like most villagers, make a living by hunting and chopping wood."
“What are you hunting?”
What else can I hunt when hunting? The young general wants to ask the White Tiger? They have never encountered such things as the White Tiger in their lives at the foot of the mountain.
Zheng Jiu secretly looked up at Jiang Ling. Although the general was not old, he was meticulous and decisive. Although he didn't know why he asked him about this, Zheng Jiu still chose to tell the truth, "Rabbits, pheasants, deer, birds, etc., and valuable villains are all caught."
Hearing a bird, Jiang Ling continued, "Have you ever gone to the flower and bird market in Kang'an City to sell birds?"
Zheng Jue blinked her eyes a few times quickly, "I've been there."
Jiang Ling broke the casserole and asked to the end, "When was the last time I went there?"
Hearing this, Zheng Juan felt something was wrong. He replied in panic and excitedly, "When the fourth year of Jinglong is approaching winter."
After saying that, Zheng Jue's heart was pounding and her breath became unstable.
Seeing that he was unstable, Jiang Ling asked directly, "As Zheng Chunjiu's name?"
When Jiang Ling heard the name "Zheng Chunjiu", Zheng Jiu suddenly looked up at Jiang Ling.
Jiang Ling looked straight into his eyes, "Maybe, you are walking outside under another name, such as... Wei Cong?"
General Ren and Wei Congdu said it, what else does Zheng Jiu not understand? He almost cried because at this moment, he had been waiting for ten years! Zheng Jiu knelt on his knees and saluted, tremblingly, "The villain knows what General Ren wants to ask, but the villain cannot tell you, the villain can only tell Lord Jiang in person."
Jiang Ling suppressed his excitement and asked slowly, "Why?"
Zheng Jue kowtowed, "The villain was entrusted by his foster father and made a poisonous oath, asking General Ren to forgive his crime."
Go to see your foster father... Liu'er is pursuing Wei Cong's whereabouts, but his foster father doesn't know. If he took Wei Cong, he can no longer hide this from his foster father. Jiang Ling stood up without hesitation, "I will take you to see my foster father now."
Zheng Jue was a little panicked, "General Ren, but something big happened in Beijing?"
Jiang Ling nodded, "The big thing has not yet happened, but it is about to break out."
"The villain comes with you." Zheng Jiu immediately stood up and did what his adoptive father told him, so he didn't have to worry about living.
Without further ado, Jiang Ling went to the border guard camp to report to leave the camp, and ordered a team of people to rush to Suzhou. Zheng Jiu naturally mingled in the team and was protected by a dedicated person.
Jiang Ling rushed to Suzhou City early the next morning. From a distance, he saw that there were people outside the city, so he urged the horse to run over quickly.
Mr. Jiang, who was placing food and disaster relief outside the city gate, immediately got up and greeted him, "Why is Ling'er back? What about the border town?"
The people who were ragged and pale-faced and thin in the lined lined up to receive the food all turned their heads and looked at the black-robed general in front of Jiang Zexian with fear, fearing that he would tell the bad news that the border was breached by the Khitans.
In front of his adoptive father, Jiang Ling showed a childish side, "The border town is safe. The child just killed the enemy leader yesterday and made military achievements. Because he missed his adoptive father, he rushed over to see you."
The people were relieved and turned their heads and looked at the bags of food in front of them.
"You stupid kid." The son thought of himself like this, which made Mr. Jiang Er feel distressed and happy. He ordered the officials around him to return to the yamen. A group of merchants in brocade robes wanted to follow him, but was stopped by Mr. Jiang Er's guard. Mr. Jiang Er winked at Jiang Bao, and Jiang Bao immediately understood and waved his hand to let the guards release grain merchants over.
Jiang Ling asked in a low voice, "Long live your permission to open the warehouse and release grain?"
Mr. Jiang said to his son with an excited look, "What I have placed today is not the grain in the official warehouse. The grain distributed to the people outside the city is donated by Suzhou grain merchants! Suzhou grain merchants have great righteousness, and for the father, they must report it to their father, so that Long live to understand that although Suzhou has some bad apples, the people are all good."
Jiang Ling also looked at the rich businessmen who pretended not to feel sorry for him, and he was moved by twenty-tenths of the way, "Father, such a grain businessman with a heart of family and country must be praised."
"That's natural!" Mr. Jiang looked back and smiled at the grain merchants, and said to his son, "For my father, I have told Lord Fu that he would like to praise the grain merchants who donated grain according to the regulations of the court."
When the food merchant behind him heard this, he couldn't hide the pain on his face. He asked Fu Kaiwen to praise them? Isn't that going to be skinned again?
Mr. Jiang continued to tell his son, "Grain merchants sell grain for a living, they also have families and families to eat, and the grain they take out was not blown by the strong wind."
The grain merchants following Jiang Erye saw the light of hope in their eyes. Could it be that the court would reward them with silver?
Without discussing in advance, Jiang Ling understood what his adoptive father meant and said to him, "Entertainment Father, you have to consider it more for the grain merchants."
"Don't worry, I'm thinking about it for my father." Mr. Jiang bowed to the north with great righteousness. "Folk grain merchants have good intentions, but disaster relief is what the court should do. They help the court share their worries. The court cannot just skip their hands and do things. I will write a letter to my father and ask the court to allocate funds. The grain donated by the grain merchants was considered to have bought by the court and they."
Hearing this, the grain merchants could no longer hold it back and kowtowed to Mr. Jiang Er.
"Thank you sir!"
"Thank you, Mr. Qin."
"Thank you, Lord Exiled!"
"I just did what I should do. Compared to you taking the initiative to provide food for disaster relief, what I did is really nothing. If you want to thank you, you have to thank you. Our Emperor of Zhou is a wise monarch with clear rewards and punishments." Mr. Jiang bent down and raised his hand, saying, "But you also know that Long Live is in charge of the people of the world, and there are many places to use money... As for the price of grain..."
hiss--
The hearts of the grain merchants who were about to thank long live, were suddenly cold.
Mr. Jiang looked embarrassed and ashamed, and whispered, "I can only help you get the official price, I don't know what you are..."
ha--
The grain merchants' hearts suddenly warmed up a little, and thanked him for long live, thanks Lord Jiang. Although the official price is much lower than the market price, they are already very satisfied with the official price, and selling grain at the official price is not considered a loss. If they pay Kaiwen to gain fame today, they will not be able to get a penny.
Mr. Jiang helped the grain merchants up and asked them to go back and wait with peace of mind.
A grain merchant asked carefully, "Sir, I don't know if you paid the grain or..."
Mr. Jiang Er said immediately, "Don't worry, if you are happy, even if the food allocated by the court cannot be transported here immediately, I will first use the silver from the state government to deliver it to you in person."
