Chapter 486 Rivers and Lakes
Tongguan.
Under the night, Song Jiang knelt down in front of Qin Lang, extremely respectful.
Behind the well-known timely Yusong elder brother in the Jianghu, the three masters of Yu Qilin, Zhi Duoxing and Ru Yunlong stood, but when they met Qin Lang, they just knelt on one knee and crossed their hands to salute.
It is not known in the Jianghu that the dark and ugly Song Jiang used to be called Song Fugui, and he was just a small leader of a group of horse thieves among the many thieves in Shayuan. He recruited him, supported him as his elder brother, bestowed Liang with the title of Shanshuibo, and set out a program to do justice for the heavens.
Liang Shan has been so fierce these years because he is a team under the name of Zhen Fusi. And Song Jiang was able to sit firmly in the top spot and was not outflanked by those heroes of the rivers and lakes, and it was also because of the three his own parts that Qin Lang left for him back then.
With the backing of the imperial court, the care and intelligence of the Zhen Fusi, and the assistance of the three parts of the Qin family, Song Fugui naturally changed from a timid horse thief and a captive to an incomparably loyal man praised by everyone in the rivers and lakes. big brother.
Several large boxes were placed behind him, all brought by Song Jiang.
"The humble job has already replaced the money and silk in the village with light goods that are easy to carry." Song Jiang knelt on the ground and did not dare to get up.
Qin Lang took the list from Jade Qilin Li Jun. The gold and silver coins that are easy to carry and have high value and good circulation are all minted by Guardian Bank and Kaiyuan Bank, as well as large pieces of horseshoe gold and silver collars that were melted and cast. All bank notes with large denominations can be cashed with code words, tokens, and vouchers.
The total value is tens of thousands of guan.
There are no pearls and jade ornaments, nor copper coins and silk, Song Jiang and the others are very careful.
Looking at Song Jiang kneeling with his **** sticking out, Qin Lang finally said, "Get up."
Brother Song, who kept his word and ordered countless heroes inside and outside the pass, hurriedly got up.
"You Shuibo Liangshan was originally recruited and placed by the real minister when he was the town governor. Now the truth is no longer in the town governor. However, as long as you continue to be loyal to the court and serve the town governor, remember what the real minister told you back then and don't do it. It's good not to bully the weak if it hurts the nature and reason."
Who would have known that a team that was placed inadvertently back then could be so big now, with such a high status in the world and such a wide command.
One hundred and eight heroes occupy a state or a county, and on the surface, they all become powerful and powerful in a place, but secretly they can control the local heroes.
It can be said that this Liangshan has long since walked out of the wasteland of Shayuan, and now the influence of forces spreads all over the pass. Liangshan was installed by Qin Lang at the beginning, and Lin San, Liu Jiu, Zhao An, Zhang Cheng and others knew it well, so although Qin Lang left the Zhenfu Division in the past two years, Liu Jiu and Wei Chang are still there, just as Continue to take care of them.
Even taking advantage of the expansion of Liangshan to mop up the heroes of the green forests everywhere, and attack and kill the real thieves who do evil, cut paths and rob.
Using Jianghu people like Liangshan to sweep up those copycat water camps, the effect is surprisingly good.
It's not the imperial court's attack on the lake, but the fighting within the rivers and lakes. It's the righteous heroes who crusade against those gangsters and villains. The rivers and lakes are torn apart, and two camps are formed, fighting each other.
And the Justice League headed by Liang Shan, with the secret support of the Zhenfu Division, has advantages in intelligence, equipment and other aspects, not to mention the government's intentional or unintentional cooperation, which makes it difficult for those villains to even establish an alliance. Once, anyone who wants to be the next door sheep will always be attacked soon. Either the leader will be beheaded in bed in his sleep, or he will be shot in the cold during the fight.
Either the stockade was directly breached.
In short, Liangshan has indeed been invincible in recent years.
Only Song Jiang knows that under his handsome appearance, he is actually a dog of Zhenfusi, and his master has two, one is Zhenfusi, and the other is Qin Lang.
He is very clear that Zhang Liang, the current governor, is not his master, because Zhang Liang doesn't even know that there are extra staff like them. He is under Liu Jiu, Wei Chang, Lin San and others, and he also knows that Wei Chang and Liu The ninth class is actually Qin Lang's people.
Hearing that Qin Lang was going to Luoyang, Song Jiang asked Yu Qilin and other leaders to arrange to meet Qin Lang.
The contacts between Liangshan and Zhenfusi are all in charge of the three heads of Yuqilin Zhiduoxing and Ruyunlong, and Song Jiang has no way to contact directly.
Song Jiang bowed his waist and reported to Qin Lang the development of Liangshan in recent years, and how under his leadership, Liangshan held high the banner of "doing justice for the sky", crusading against the gangsters and villains in the rivers and lakes, and how to fight against those profiteers, corrupt officials, evil gentry and powerful of.
Those who are not convenient for the government to come forward, and those who are unwilling to take action, Liangshan will take action.
Those who are not easy for the government to kill, they will kill in Liangshan.
"How do you ensure that there are no indiscriminate killings? How do you ensure that your punishment does not cross the line, and how do you ensure that chaos within Liangshan crosses the line?" Qin Lang asked.
"Mr. Hui Wei, I follow the advice of the second masters. There are eight internal and external halls under the Liangshan Conference Hall. The Xunfeng Hall is dedicated to intelligence collection, investigating those illegal things, and even accepting people's appeals for help."
"The Criminal Hall is in charge of criminal law."
The organization in Liangshan is very advanced now. Shayuan is the main hall, and there are 108 sub-rudders under the leadership of heroes, each in charge of a piece.
The main hall is divided into eight inner and outer halls, each of which manages a piece of affairs, and has the management authority over 108 sub-rudders.
Inside and outside the eight halls, there are those in charge of intelligence, some in charge of operations, some in charge of organizing training, some in charge of review and investigation, and of course some in charge of punishment, etc., each performing its own duties.
Even internally, there are various offices that perform their duties, such as in charge of investigation into the mountains, organizing training, assigning rudder ports, discipline supervision, and so on.
These were all made by the second masters. It is precisely because of these that Liangshan has grown so rapidly in the past few years, because of organization, discipline, and program.
Liangshan is no longer a mob, nor is it a straggler, nor is it just that there is no tomorrow. Everyone has two identities, one is the identity of the world, and it is dark. The first official status is white.
Everyone is no longer full and hungry. Everyone is well-trained, obeys the command, pays food and salaries on a monthly basis, and distributes commissions according to orders.
Especially under the banner of doing justice for the heavens, so that everyone will not feel guilty about doing it, but instead have a sense of pride of a true hero.
Usually at home, I also help the orphans and the poor. All of them are heroes and outsiders who have nothing to do with justice.
"Very good, but guard against arrogance and impetuosity, neither bully the poor nor the rich. Rich businessmen, powerful landlords and officials are not their enemies, only those who are evil and devoid of conscience are your enemies."
"Remember one thing, be loyal to the emperor, loyal to the court, don't bully the good, and help the weak!"
"This money, I will collect 10,000 guan for the Zhenfu Division, and I will transfer it to the other side as the funds for the Division, and you can take the rest back, use it to do some good deeds, and reward the brothers who are going down to Liangshan. Well, here's the reward."
"Song Jiang."
"The humble job is here."
"You performed well, I'll go back and talk to Liu Jiu and the others, let them arrange an official rank for you."
Song Jiang's excited black face turned white.
"Don't be too happy too early. With your status, you can't be recruited publicly, so I can only secretly confer you an official position in the Zhenfu Division, and you have to keep it secret. I guess I will confer you with a ninth rank first, although Zhima Small official, but from thief to official, this step is not easy. As long as you work hard, you will continue to improve in the future. When you get tired or old and want to quit, the secretary will give you Arrange for you to return to the department, and then you can openly put on official robes."
"Work hard, and you will have a chance to wear a green robe in the future, and you may even have a chance to be a county magistrate in the future."
Song Jiang quickly knelt down for Qin Lang again.
He used to be just a starving man whose wife and children had nowhere to go. After joining the horse thief, he had no courage. It is the lowest rank from the ninth rank, even if he can't wear the blue official robe, it is enough to make him very grateful.
No matter how beautiful the big brother in the world is, he can't get rid of the word "thief".
If possible, Song Jiang would like to go down to Liangshan now.
Qin Lang asked him to work hard, at least for another ten years.
Song Jiang paid nine thanks three times, and finally left reluctantly.
The three of Li Jun stayed behind and had a talk with Qin Langduo.
These three are the real masters of Liangshan.
"Everyone's life is not easy this year. The famine and the epidemic are combined. Some people will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble. Now the government can't control it. You have to play a role. For those who do evil, especially those who dare to kill and rob Adulterers, you can shoot directly."
······
Li Jun and others expressed that they would not disappoint Saburo's confession.
"I have already arranged for you to come from before. The three of you are all martial arts from the seventh rank, and your children will be able to study in the Imperial College in the second half of the year."
The three were extremely grateful.
"Do well, do things for the court, the court will not let you down."
"I don't think Song Jiang has much ability, but he doesn't have much ambition either. Such a person is very suitable to be a big brother in the rivers and lakes. You should help him well. If there is an ambitious person in Liangshan who wants to replace him, you can keep an eye on him."
Li Jun told Qin Lang that the village has indeed accumulated a lot of money and food, and would pay a large sum of money to the Zhen Fusi every season before, but this time the tens of thousands of guan were specially given to Qin Lang, and there is no guarantee Someone else will know.
Qin Lang chuckled, "Am I short of money?"
"Okay, I'll accept the 10,000 guan on behalf of the Secretary first. As for the others, you can take them back and use them where you need them. You just have to keep in mind that you are officials and not real thieves."
"Don't lose yourself, you really think of yourself as a big brother."
"Subordinates don't dare to forget their identities!"
"That's good."
