Chapter 0087 – Wealth and Risk (2 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCCCao Liankang’s heart spat at the emperor for a while, surely he didn’t think that he had personally given King Kang such a powerful daughter-in-law, did he?
If the Emperor knew about this would he be so angry that he would vomit blood?
“Lord Cao, this is only a small portion of the mountain bandits, most of them are still halfway up the mountain, nearly two hundred of them, I wonder if there can be any bounty silver? How much bounty can there be?”
Cao Liankang understood, the original Kang Wangfei ventured into the bandit nest is for the reward silver, must be on the way to exile silver is not enough to spend.
“Mrs. Shen, these mountain bandits are all poor and vicious people, the original reward given by the government was a hundred taels of silver for catching one person ……” Cao Liankang silently calculated in his heart how much reward silver he would have to give for two hundred people.
This calculation is really shocking, God, there are 20,000 taels!
After he was promoted to governor, his salary was only 120 taels of silver in a month. How many years would it take to save up 20,000 taels of silver with his salary?
It’s true that it’s rich and famous!
Cao Liankang stared at his toes with some embarrassment, the finances of the Yamen are all if a deficit, they were all embezzled by that dog official Wang Jingan.
He was too timid to be killed for fear of being caught in the act of embezzlement, so he kept his hands clean and refrained from working with corrupt officials during his term of office.
His family lives on his salary, and his family doesn’t have any extra silver. The 20,000 taels of reward money is really not available now.
“Mrs. Shen, can you hold off on giving this silver for a while? I really can’t get that kind of silver now!” Cao Liankang spoke with careful deliberation, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Shen, when the government office has silver in the coming year, we will definitely give it to you.”
I heard that Wang Jing’an was angered by the God of Heaven because he put a group of exiled people in the prison, and that’s why his residence was burned down and then he was sentenced to death.
He now had reason to suspect that it was the group of them who had been imprisoned in the dungeon in the first place, and he was really afraid that Lan Luoluo would not agree to hold him down and beat him violently on the ground again.
The King of Kang can not be offended even if he is relegated to the status of a commoner, he still understands the reasoning of the rotation of wind and water. Maybe in a few years this King Kang will have some great deeds!
Lan Luoluo didn’t expect those mountain bandits to be so valuable that she casually got 20,000 taels of silver. But looking at Cao Liankang’s appearance really can’t afford this silver.
Relying on the folding to the dog emperor that is even more finished, the dog emperor is so poor that he ate white porridge and salted vegetables.
“As long as Governor Cao can recognize this debt, the reward can be given later. But it’s better for Governor Cao to write a note of indebtedness, in the name of the Yongzhou Yamen.”
What if the next governor denies it?
Cao Liankang quickly agreed that it was right to write a note if he couldn’t pay the silver. He quickly ordered the government officials to go to the mountain to bring those bandits down the mountain, and at the same time to go to the bandit nest to investigate.
The last count has two hundred and two people, blue Luo Luo is very generous to make up a whole number, two hundred people whole.
IOUs get hand Blue Luo Luo satisfied to put into the space, the heart of this newly appointed governor of Yongzhou is very satisfied, know the time and very smart.
Such a person she then wished him a prosperous future in officialdom!
Cao Liankang bid farewell to Lan Luoluo and his party, and personally led two hundred bandits majestically and very ostentatiously back to the city.
He must tell the people that the ones who rid them of the bandits were King Kang and Princess Kang, who had been exiled by the Emperor. The people must remember who rescued them from their misery!
Only in his heart there is still a loss of hope, the mountain bandit nest did not even scavenge a valuable thing. But he quickly adjusted his mindset, not poor they can go down the mountain to rob things?
He decided that in order to be worthy of the great performance that Princess Kang sent him, he must be a good official for the people in the future!
