    Taiping Lane, Jinyi Lane.

    The front hall of Qianhu Office.

    Jia Cong sat there quietly reading a book by himself, his clothes changed because he finally had a nanny who could wash the clothes and a wife who was responsible for cutting them

    "However, he still refused the maid's close service. It was not because of false morality, but because he did not want to make the girls on the boat sad.

    When I was studying in the Red Mansion in my previous life, I still didn¡¯t understand why Qingwen and Sheyue were so hostile to Xiaohong, who only poured water for Baoyu once.  They are obviously pretty girls of the same age. They can get into trouble over trivial matters, and their words can be as mean or even vicious as a knife.

    After a few years in this world, he gradually understood that it was not just a matter of a cup of tea, it was the foundation of their lives and a symbol of status and glory.

    Although from the perspective of future generations, this may seem a bit sad, but in this great world, there is nothing wrong at all.

    So Jia Cong understands and respects them.

    He can kill decisively, he can be ruthless, he can turn against others, but Jia Cong still hopes that there is a warm pure land in his heart that can allow him to maintain the final bottom line.

    And those girls who have been extremely close to him for several years are the last warmth in his heart, and they are also his family.

    A burst of heavy footsteps interrupted Jia Cong's reverie. After focusing his gaze, Jia Cong saw Zhan Peng, Shen Lang, Guo Yun, and Han Tao walking towards him with evil spirits all over their bodies. There were blood stains on their bodies.

    Behind the four of them was a staggering and pale-faced person, it was Wei Chen.

    "grown ups!!"

    After entering the hall, the four people clasped their fists in greeting.

    Jia Cong nodded in return, then his eyes fell on the lost Wei Chen, and he said calmly: "With your intelligence, can't you figure it out? If you couldn't figure it out, would you have given up your post of Qianhu?"

    Wei Chen laughed miserably when he heard this and said: "Sir, even though I think I am very intelligent, how can I compare with someone as stunning as my lord? With such decisiveness in killing, I can't do it even after ten years of training  ¡­¡±

    "Can't do it?"

    Jia Cong chuckled and said: "After today, you will be able to do it soon. Wei Chen, no one likes to kill people, no one likes to see blood, we are not evil ghosts in the underworld. All we can do is to live a good life  Go down. But if we leave those people behind, those people who are filled with sand and knives outside, we won¡¯t be able to survive well, or even survive. Do you understand?"

    When Wei Chen heard this, he was silent for a while, then sighed and said: "I understand the humble position."

    Jia Cong shook his head and said, "You still don't understand. You are a very intelligent person, but you also have obvious shortcomings. You are indecisive and even indecisive. Liu Zhao's scheming and intelligence are not as good as yours, but he caught you.  It has shortcomings, so it can eat you to death."

    At this point, seeing Wei Chen's expression in a daze, Jia Cong nodded and said, "Go back and think about it carefully. If you think clearly, come see me in the study tomorrow. If you don't understand, just take your family and leave.

    Do you know why I can regard Zhan Peng as a sibling, but I always remain distant from you?  "

    Seeing Wei Chen raising his head and looking at him with confusion and expectation, Jia Cong solemnly replied word by word: "Because smart people are afraid of death, and you have such a fatal flaw, I don't want to make the same mistake as Liu Zhaozhi."

    When Wei Chen heard this, he felt as if he was struck by lightning, his whole body shook, his face was miserable, but he was speechless.

    After bowing his hands hastily, he staggered out the door

    When his back disappeared behind the screen wall, Jia Cong said to Han Tao: "Send someone to protect him secretly."

    Han Tao hurriedly ran out to make arrangements and came back after a cup of tea.

    After the reunion, Jia Cong did not ask about the outcome of the hundreds of households in the Jiazi No. 1 house. He asked Han Tao: "How much is the monthly salary for a captain in the Jinyi Army?"

    Han Tao replied: "My lord, during the Zhenyuan period, the Jinyi pro-army's military salary was the same as that of the Hei Liao border army, which had the highest military salary. A school captain's monthly salary was one tael, four qian plus half a stone of rice. A Tiqi's monthly salary was one liang.  Eight coins plus half a stone of rice. The court discounted one stone of rice to eight coins of silver, but the actual price was higher. In general, a school captain could get two taels of silver a month, and a tiqi could get three taels. But"

    "But what?"

    Seeing that he was hesitant and embarrassed, as if he had something to say, Jia Cong asked.

    Han Tao smiled bitterly and said: "I dare not hide this from you, sir. There has always been a bad habit of deducting military pay in the army. In name, a captain's strongman can get two taels of silver and three taels of cavalry per month, but in fact, he can get it.  If a school captain can get one or two taels of money, he is considered an Amitabha, and Tiqi is no different. It is also very common to take free money, and it has almost become an unwritten rule."

    &sp; But there is no need to talk about this with Zhan Peng, who has strong limbs and a simple mind.

    After saying the important things, Jia Cong paused and said: "Xue Gu led people to count the bank account before. Gold and silver are not counted. There are many industries inside and outside Jinling City. Brothels, gambling houses, pawn shops and loan sharking banks."

    As he spoke, he walked to the table nearby, picked up a wooden box about a foot long, opened it and took out a thick stack of paper deeds.

    After returning to his seat, he continued: "These ill-gotten gains cannot be swept away by those who stay behind. Zhan Peng, you are from Jinling and the land is familiar. Tomorrow Guo Yun will select five hundred people from Yangliu Camp.  Man, you and Guo Yun led people to raid these places.

    Liu Zhao also had several large manors outside the city, which were all confiscated. All those confiscated were sent to the manor for detention and interrogated one by one.

    Those who commit the most heinous crimes will have their homes confiscated and beheaded, then their homes will be confiscated and they will be imprisoned, and then they will be imprisoned in farms to work, regardless of whether they are men or women.  "

    Han Tao said worriedly: "Such a big movement will definitely cause a backlash."

    Jia Cong chuckled and said: "As long as we don't touch the volcano that is about to explode, the new law. If anyone dares to reach out for anything else, we will cut off his hand! The new law involves the foundation of the entire Jiangnan gentry, so the rebound  Violent. But other than that, if anyone wants to die, we might as well make it happen."
