On the fifth day of August, Commandant of Archers’ Unit is preparing to issue military pay.
I had informed you before that I was going to be on field duty this time, so I had to give out three months' worth of military pay and food, so I brought a big bag with me.
The soldiers naturally did not dare to neglect.
However, when they arrived at the school grounds, they were not allowed to open the warehouse or even enter the school grounds. They could only wait on the side, and then watched helplessly as a group of county officials who came from Langya led people to draw lines, or grids, with lime on the school grounds.
Don't know what to do either.
However, they did not feel uneasy, because everyone, including the other four departments, noticed the strange scene at the other end of the school grounds - dozens of large cauldrons were set up, and countless quacking ducks tied with ropes were piled next to them. The water in the cauldron began to boil, and the ducks began to have their throats cut and their feathers plucked.
Some people were sharp-eyed and recognized some of the people who were busy next to the cauldron. They were basically people under Stone City who were good at cooking Lotus-Leaf-Wrapped Duck. They each came with their wives and children to help them. There were even some big iron cauldrons that were usually used to cook ducks. They were probably brought here to borrow them temporarily.
That's right, Liu Cheng had someone specially collect a total of six hundred ducks from the area of Jingkou and delivered them all.
And since the ducks are in Jiankang, how can there be any luck? Regardless of the large number, for a professional duck cook, it is just one big cauldron and two big cauldrons! Not to mention there are dozens of big iron cauldrons here?
When the first round of duck stew was almost finished and the aroma spread throughout the school grounds, their new bosses who had only been in office for a few days, Marquis of Zan, Gentleman of the Palace Attendant, Extra-Establishment, Langya Interior Minister, Archery Colonel Liu Cheng, also arrived, with Wang Linzhi on the left The Langya team of, Fan Ning, Xie Xuan, Zhang Zhong, and the Commandant of Archers’ Unit team of Zheng Shengzhi, Yu Shao on the right come together.
After arriving, he ordered the warehouse to be opened and military pay distributed.
However, because he was afraid of being tired, he did not learn any of the advanced methods of later generations, and did not personally distribute military pay and supplies to people. Instead, he went to the place where ducks were cooked and had someone give him half a duck. He had to have good knife skills and chop it evenly from head to butt. Then he filled a bowl with the cooked rice and poured it with the duck on a large washed lotus leaf.
Immediately, the person held this thing, came to the front of the lime grids, sat cross-legged on the ground, first tore off the duck leg, took a bite, and then grabbed the rice and ate it slowly.
Wang Linzhi Deng Ren was dumbfounded.
Before they came, they had been talking about the "Song of Changgan" that leaked out of Department of State Affairs. They said that Prince of Kuaiji specifically commented on the word "kind" under this 130-character poem., someone hangs it on Changgan Lane, which not only made the deserters at Changgan Lane feel relieved, it also attracted countless celebrities to take a ride to see it. The local deserters with families could only feel relieved after listening to someone's explanation, and they couldn't squeeze in at all.
Of course, the poster "Song of Changgan" was also copied by Wang Tanzhi himself, so there is no need to explain it to outsiders.
And now, this man who was praised as having a lot of romance actually sits on the ground and catches ducks with his hands to eat. It's... shocking.
But that was it, with him doing the proofing, the rest of the matter was completely logical. The most junior sergeants lined up according to their affiliations, and after receiving three months of military pay and food, they were not allowed to leave. Instead, they were pointed to the place where the ducks were cooked. They took a portion of Lotus-Leaf-Wrapped Duck on the spot, and then followed the instructions, and sat face to face with Liu Cheng in the painted grids to eat.
When the salaries of the junior sergeants were finished, the officers on the first floor of Squad Commander also began to come to collect them. However, after taking half of the Lotus-Leaf-Wrapped Duck, they were led by the Langya Commandery officers to the back of the Liu Cheng and sat cross-legged.
After a while, the Imperial Guards internal military officials who were responsible for distributing money and food, Zheng Shengzhi, Yu Shao, and the four Qu Army Commander also sat down one after another.
In the end, Xie Xuan, who was obviously excited, also went to ask for a duck. Zhang Zhong, whose own position was very clear, that is, to be Elite Soldier's disciple, did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly followed, and only shared one duck with Xie Xuan.
At the end, only Wang Linzhi and Fan Ning were standing there, but Liu Cheng waved them over.
After receiving Lotus-Leaf-Wrapped Duck, the two of them sat down awkwardly, not knowing where to start. Liu Cheng, who was in front of him with his mouth full of oil, turned around and comforted him, "If you can't eat it, just sit down and wait for the sergeants to go home. Give these to the cooks. They won't mind the leftovers and thank you... but you can really eat the duck legs."
Wang Linzhi was the most obedient, so he picked up the duck leg and gnawed it. It was indeed quite tasty, and for a while he actually felt it was a bit more delicious than Gold-Mixed Jade Slices.
Of course, this was mainly because he was tired from standing here all morning and noon, so he couldn't resist the fragrance of fat and protein.
Wang Linzhi all started, and Fan Ning had no choice but to grab a duck leg, so it was a feast for everyone!
In fact, this is the truth. Liu Cheng cannot be the same as when he first moved to Jingkou. Not to mention the meat and fish taste, he even has to lick the bowl of salt, vegetable and bean porridge. He really can't eat it now. The lower half of the duck, so I just held it for show, chewing on the duck leg for a long time, and then I saw people finishing it one after another... They really finished eating, eating it dry and wiping it clean while chewing the bones... They also pouted their mouths to show.
Instead of shouting loudly himself, he asked a dozen county officials to go around the school grounds and shout, "Marquis Liu asked everyone if they had finished eating. After eating, they threw down the lotus leaves and went home to explain to their families. We will gather again on the eighth day of the lunar month to send out troops! You are not allowed to take away the lotus leaves!"
In the end, there was a lot of shouting, which disappointed some of the soldiers who wanted to take this thing home, but they had no choice but to eat and leave.
By the afternoon, the sergeants had eaten cleanly and only threw thousands of lotus leaves on the ground. As expected, Liu Cheng only ate one duck leg and handed the rest to the professionals who made the duck. They also asked those Langya Commandery officials who had worked hard for a long time to sit down and share the remaining duck. They were allowed to use chopsticks.
Of course, in the end it is inevitable to hold it with your hands and chew it.
As long as Liu Cheng needs to go back to be with his wife in advance, he will no longer accompany him. However, he cannot help but remind these very proactive Langya Commandery officials nowadays. Those who are willing to recommend their relatives and nephews to become Attendant Secretariat Supervisor under their sect, or to join Commandant of Archers’ Unit, they all go to Zhang Zhong to report and leave together on the eighth day of the lunar month.
In the blink of an eye, on the eighth day of the lunar month, Jiankang was still copying the "Song of Changgan" "copied" by Liu Cheng in the city, but this did not delay him from leading his four songs plus half a building of Gao Clan's Huai River region troops with thousands of people to set off. In addition, he had already expanded to thirty riders' Attendant Secretariat Supervisor cavalry, and thirty riders' personal Huai River region accompanying cavalry, and even about one-third of the Langya Commandery officials who were temporarily transferred, Wang Linzhi, Fan Ning, and Xie Xuan also each brought dozens of family Mounted Slaves guards, and eight hundred military slaves with the logistics supply convoy, which was very majestic and looked like an army of troops.
I went out of the city to catch deserters, so I just wandered around Danyang. After three months of military pay, I had my ducks in a row, and my morale was very high.
The first stop is Jurong, which is natural, because Mao Mountain is in the south of Jurong. This is the largest mountain in Danyang, and there must be many deserters hidden there.
Liu Acheng adheres to the concept of military speed and rapidity. As soon as the troops arrived, they occupied the county town of Jurong as their own, established a logistics base, and then divided the troops according to the order. Under the leadership of local officials, they attacked several suspected bandit dens under Mao Mountain.
At the same time, we will divide the work and let Wang Linzhi be responsible for negotiating with the county officials; let Fan Ning be responsible for receiving and inspecting the prisoners; let Xie Xuan and Zhang Zhong is still responsible for military inspections and military disciplinary disputes; then Zheng Shengzhi and Yu Shao are still responsible for their own jobs, that is, military merit verification, reporting and distribution of logistics and military supplies.
What about you Liu Acheng? Aren't you the commander-in-chief?
Of course, the general is going to do the most important job this time, which is to rip off others!
The reason why I chose Jurong as my first stop was because there was a family in Jurong that was half-dead, but in South of the Yangtze Way of the Celestial Masters, the local noble family Way of the Celestial Masters was of decent character and was the most suitable for surgery.
Yes, this place is Xu Changshi's family!
This family is a typical loser in the internal struggle of South of the Yangtze native Way of the Celestial Masters.
First, the mainstay of the family, Wang Xizhi's best friend. When we were young, we looked for Grotto-Heavens and Blessed Lands together. As a result, after many years of searching, this god disappeared. I don't know whether he really became a god or was tricked by a tiger. After eating it, it disappeared anyway. As for Wang Xizhi who was traveling with him, to use Wang Biaozhi Wang Baihu's hateful tone, he was looking for Grotto-Heavens and Blessed Lands to kill him.
Of course, Wang Biaozhi is speaking from a political and practical perspective. If you ask Liu Cheng, you will definitely feel that that period of time made an indelible contribution to the improvement of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy art taste.
Or let's talk about the Xu family. Without its backbone, it was impossible to compete with the rising Master Du Ming at that time. There was really no other way but to let Xu Changshi come back to inherit the family business and change tracks to become a psychic.
To be fair, this is already a stretch, equivalent to surrender. In the end, because the new boss, our Xu Changshi, found Xi Family and Wang Family defrauded people of money and was used by Liu Cheng as a stepping stone to Master Du Ming's prestige. Now he is still at Guanzhong, and I don't know whether he is transporting food or keeping accounts.
Two inexplicable collapses of the pillars of their home directly caused their family to shrink into a mere Jurong county, with their political, cultural, and religious influence reduced to a minimum.
Liu Cheng didn't have much to say. He introduced himself and told them his growth story seriously. He told them about himself, South of the Yangtze Way of the Celestial Masters, and Xu Changshi The deep connection between E and Northern Expedition finally stated that he would imitate Zu Ti in collecting supplies and money. We all have this kind of connection. Can your family sponsor a little bit?
Can this be regarded as a blessing to Xu Changshi who is in Guanzhong?
What blessing?
Well, I know that your family still has two large manors in Jurong. Now open the manor warehouse immediately and let me check. The cattle, sheep and livestock are not moved, the furniture is not moved, only money and silk are moved, but only 60% of them are moved.
No more, no less, just 60%, which is more respectable than those people moving to the court for storage.
Then Manor Yellow Register becomes transparent, and you can pay taxes normally in the future.
In this case, as long as Xu Changshi is still alive, I will immediately write to Xi Jiabin on the spot and give him back to you.
Not only that, Xu Changshi is back, he can also participate in the new Way of the Celestial Masters reform under the guidance of the court and me, and he will no longer be a psychic in the future... Isn't this a blessing?
But if you don't want a blessing, that's easy. I think your family must be hiding deserters, and there must be evidence of the leaked Military Weapons. Now I will take down your men and behead them in public, and then gather the two thousand people I brought with me to attack these two Manor. If they cannot be defeated, I will call for reinforcements from Jingkou and Jiankang, and they can arrive in a day.
In fact, this crime is really not frame-up, it is just like this... Don't talk about the Manor of Way of the Celestial Masters. Under the control of the lord Protector-General, as long as there is still a Manor, how could there be no deserters? Which deserter would not bring some Military Weapons with him? Especially Way of the Celestial Masters, that Military Weapons is a natural five buckets of rice.
Otherwise, how did the Military Crossbow that Liu Cheng touched for the first time come from?
Anyway, two thousand of my people have gathered in front of Jurong, so tell me whether your family wants to rebel and start a fight?
What can that do?
Are you really going to rebel in Jurong and make the Wu Region natives and Way of the Celestial Masters orthodox great again? The Xu family has no right to shout like that!
The Xu family members, old and young, looked at each other and were willing to accept transformation and start a new life on the spot.
The first stop was a small test, and it was easy to succeed.
What else can you say? Just move things!
As a result, Liu Cheng was eye-opening, with five hundred shi of new rice, six hundred shi of new millet, three thousand shi of old rice and old millet, two hundred bolts of silk, about 1,800 bolts of ramie cloth and Gebu, eight million dollars, and dozens of kilograms of gold and silver. In addition, there were more than forty furs of various types, Military Crossbow Long Spear fifty or sixty handfuls, and even more than twenty barrels of lacquer and seventy-eight stones of salt.
It doesn't look like much, but it's really incomparable to Prince of Wuling's warehouse. The gold and silver in the Prince of Wuling's mansion alone can outweigh all these, and the ramie cloth that was given as a reward for paying taxes is also thousands of pieces. But don't forget, this is only the accumulation of Way of the Celestial Masters Native Clans's high-level officials at the county level, and does not include their real estate and internal economic cycle system.
Liu Cheng even saw an installed mill in the Manor, which must have been learned from his own Manor in the north.
All I can say is that this project is well underway.
After the shock was over, Liu Cheng began to divide the meat with the ears.
Children and old men were innocent, and they really took 60%, and it was 60% after erasing the zeros, but this 60% was not what the Xu family thought.
It was Liu Cheng himself who took away 60% of the gold and silver floating wealth, and the remaining core materials were the main body. He first allocated 20% to the entire Commandant of Archers’ Unit army that sent troops this time as "operating expenses". Without soldiers, where would these things come from, and without military slaves, who would transport these materials back. Jiankang? The remainder is divided into two, half of which is kept by the Xu family, and the other half, money, silk and grain, must be transferred back and sent to the warehouse to be owned by Sima Yu, or the country. In this way, in the end, the Xu family can indeed ensure that their 40% is intact.
Finally, the calculations must be done to ensure that the goods delivered to the Jiangcheng military garrison warehouse include 200 shi of new rice, 240 shi of new millet, 1,200 shi of old rice and old millet, 80 pieces of silk, 720 pieces of ramie cloth and Gebu, 3.2 million yuan, and 10 barrels of lacquer.
And Liu Cheng will get 60% of all gold, silver and furs.
Military Weapons is directly used by all troops.
Salt is left for people.
Then, placed in a special place on the Autumn Harvest large ground outside the warehouse, there were also 100 shi of new rice, 120 shi of new millet, 600 shi of old rice and old millet, 40 pieces of silk, 360 pieces of ramie cloth and Gebu, and the money was 1.6 million, which was the 20% "operating fee".
Faced with such clear statistics and classification, faced with such a simple and direct division of income, the staff of Liu Cheng had completely different reactions.
Wang Linzhi, Fan Ning, Xie Xuanming showed hesitation; Zheng Shengzhi, Yu Shao, Zhang Zhong and Langya The Attendant Secretariat Supervisors and the Langya Commanderys who were transferred this time were obviously uneasy; while the Qus Army Commanders and Squad Commanders who were called back had completely lost their composure, and their breathing was uncontrollably heavy.
Liu Cheng took a look and knew that he needed to use some means, so he waved directly and asked the Xu family to bring over the furs. According to the agreement, 60% of this thing was theoretically his, but unlike gold and silver that could be weighed directly, these things came in different sizes and qualities. He just said that he wanted to be fair and equitable, so he asked the Xu family to compare their own sizes and divide them for him.
So at this time, the Xu family was pretending to share the stuff so as not to be noticed.
Upon hearing this, he quickly put all the furs over.
Liu Cheng was not polite and went straight to pick up three pieces of about the same size. He said he wanted to make winter bedding for his daughter and the remaining two unborn children, and then asked Wang Linzhi to pick up one piece for his father.
Wang Linzhi was obedient and quickly took one seriously.
Seeing this situation, most people breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Liu Cheng pointed to Zheng Shengzhi and Yu Shao and took it. They both took it. At this time, they pointed to Fan Ning.
Fan Ning hesitated and raised his hand and asked, "Master Fu, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way. What is the reason why I take this thing?"
Everyone was nervous to see Liu Cheng, including the Xu family... The warehouse has been opened, can you really escape? You little celebrity, don't get too busy!
"The reason is very simple." Liu Cheng spoke simply. "These are the spoils of war that the imperial court sent me to send troops to. In accordance with my duties as a general, I divided the portion and gave it to you. I will personally reward you."
"That's it. I understand the reasoning behind it. I just want to ask the Lord, how do these things count as spoils of war?" Fan Ning asked seriously. "And my subordinates have not seen any decree from the imperial court to kill this Manor, and this family has not made any objections."
This is the disadvantage of being too protected and reading too much at the same time.
"Wuzi, if you are here to pursue the institutional military law, then let me tell you clearly that the found Military Weapons is in line with our method of tracking down deserters, but the owner here is willing to surrender., to redeem these deserters, and are willing to redeem themselves for their sins according to Article 3 of "Western Islet Proclamation". These materials are the cost of the redemption." Liu Cheng raised his hand and pointed. "If you don't believe it, ask the owner here."
Fan Ning was at a loss for words for a moment. Not only did he know that the host here would definitely approve of it, but he also knew that the other party's theoretical reasoning made sense.
"In addition, if you want to investigate the programmatic significance of this action, then I can also tell you that my action is still in compliance with Article 3 of "Western Islet Proclamation". However, the owner here relies on his being the leader of Way of the Celestial Masters to avoid paying taxes all year round. I have the right and responsibility to punish him according to the original intention of Duke Huan and Prince of Kuaiji. "Liu Cheng continued to persuade, and he also understood that he had to talk clearly today before he could take this person on the bus, maintain the team well, and continue the project. "Otherwise, do you think that if I just transport some things to the military supply warehouse, someone will directly take them in? Can I just schedule the military to send Jiankang within Imperial Guards?"
Fan Ning was still a little hesitant. He thought for a moment and answered with a stiff neck, "Master Fu, the two things you said are reasonable, but why do I always feel that something is wrong?"
"Because these two things are not aligned together, and the name and reality are not unified." Liu Cheng took two steps forward with his hands behind his hands and smiled. "Wuzi But there is really no way, because since Southern Migration, the court has been like this...
"Chancellor Wang is in charge of politics. In fact, he is doing "policy of confusion", pretending to be confused, straightening out all parties and not making trouble, but he keeps saying that he wants to establish a system and Northern Expedition; and for example, South of the Yangtze is actually the leader of the clan at the moment when it comes to people's livelihood. Protector-General system, but in name it is still Yellow Register White Register; including metaphysics and Confucian Learning. In the previous decades, there was also a duplicity named Confucian Learning that was actually metaphysics. Only in these years has Confucianism, Buddhism and Daoism gradually become one...
"The reason for this is not that everyone has been blind for decades, but because South of the Yangtze is in trouble, all parties are at odds with each other, and the slightest involvement can easily lead to conflicts. This is why we have to do this."
"My subordinate understands." Fan Ning is still smart, and he is probably used to seeing duplicity from his father. After figuring out what happened, he immediately admitted his mistake, then lowered his head and took out the smallest rabbit skin, saying that he wanted to bring it to his father to make a winter pillowcase.
But I don't know if the rabbit skin is enough to make a pillowcase.
But no matter what, as long as you get the idea, Liu Cheng nodded happily, and then looked at Xie Xuan.
Xie Ae was fascinated by what he heard. He came back to his senses and quickly waved his hand. "I understand the truth, but I don't lack such things, so I won't take them."
"A'e, if you don't take it, how can Zhang Zhong have the nerve to take it? If Zhang Zhong doesn't take it, how can Army Commander and the two Department Clerks who came to help have the nerve to take it? If they don't take it, below Squad Commanders are not good at allocating losses and losses to the public." Liu Cheng said with a smile. "Otherwise, do you think my daughter really needs a quilt? This is like eating ducks that day. It is the principle of managing troops and employing people. The so-called rewards and punishments must be decided at the present time, and in order to make this decision smooth at the present time, symbolic things must be done."
Xie Xuan quickly handed over his hand, saying that he had been taught, and stepped forward to take one.
Just like that, four Army Commander and two Department Clerks hurried forward to get it, and then Liu Cheng asked them to gather the Squad Commander to discuss in person how to distribute the public "losses".
Anyway, he only requires that 40% of the money that belongs to the government treasury can be properly delivered, and transportation and losses are all within the remaining 20%. How much is left and how to distribute it depends on what they can do.
Don't tell me, Liu Cheng listened for a moment. Although his face was calm and relaxed, he was shocked in his heart.
These people, with their saliva flying around, did not say how to distribute the things directly. Instead, they decided to bring most of the old grain into the army to be used as the next army ration. They did not mention bringing back the new rice and millet. Instead, they decided to sell it at Jurong, which cost only a few hundred dan. There was no need to worry about the price. In fact, the Xu family next to them immediately expressed their willingness to buy back this part at the current market price.
That's not all. When discussing how to distribute the money, someone immediately suggested that some should be given to the military slaves. Otherwise, the military slaves would become angry and deliberately cause trouble during the transfer. Once the official part of the money was lost, according to what Marquis Liu told them, it would still be counted back to them.
What's more, the transshipment is actually done by these military slaves. We can't let people do such heavy work in vain without any compensation.
This statement was immediately recognized by almost everyone.
The reason why I say almost is that two Langya County officials who came from Jiangcheng once proposed that the official's new rice, old millet, etc. could be sold nearby. They knew people and sold it here, and directly used the money to buy the corresponding rice and grain there to ensure the quality, so they would not have to work hard to transport it, and they would not have to give money to military slaves.
But obviously, this risk is relatively high, and the two Langya Commandery officials have not yet gained the trust of these officers, so they were easily rejected.
However, the officers were doing well in other places. For example, Liu Cheng next to him suggested midway that they could choose to hire some local manpower and vehicles for transportation, and be sure to leave a symbolic amount of money locally.
Finally, combined, these people actually reached a three-tier distribution model of upper, middle and lower plus military slaves. This means that except for hiring local manpower, carriages and horses, the top layer will take two, the middle will take three, and the sergeants and military slaves will divide the remaining five equally.
The results given by the narrow-minded democracy within this military group were unexpectedly fair. Liu Cheng was naturally extremely satisfied, but he reminded them on the spot that a Army Provisioning Officer would take office in a few days, and there would probably be many more Army Commander by then. Therefore, he simply took the gold and silver, not the silver, but Wang Linzhi Six people,, Fan Ning, Xie Xuan, Zhang Zhong, Zheng Shengzhi, and Yu Shao, independently took their share of the silver and did not participate in the distribution of the song Army Commander and the two Department Clerks.
This naturally makes everyone more happy.
The result was decided, and Liu Cheng finally warned the Xu family not to talk nonsense to others, but it didn't mean they wouldn't tell anyone at all. Instead, they had to obey his orders and write specific content at the right time to tell those Way of the Celestial Masters Native Clans people about the matter... If he had found out some information that he shouldn't have, he wouldn't be as gentle as he is today.
Jurong It was decided that after a little rectification, the few hundred people who had indeed been brought back by the bandits were selected and sent to the county magistrate for farming and Guannu. Along with those materials heading north, Liu Cheng also set off from the northern foot of Mao Mountain and ran eastward Qu'a.
In other words, these people left Jiankang only five days ago, and they were already out of the Danyang category. However, no one in the military cared about it at this time. It seemed that no one was aware of it. I don't know if it was because everyone's geography skills were poor these days, so they thought Danyang was very big.
On the same day that Liu Cheng led his troops to arrive at Qu'a, Sima Yu, who had just declared that Heir Apparent was deposed in the palace, received the latest documents from Liu Cheng at Department of State Affairs.
Just like last time, after he opened it and looked at it, he was silent for half a moment, and then handed the document in his hand, which was essentially just a form, to Xun Rui.
The latter also looked at it carefully for a long time before passing the document to others.
Without him, the above lists in detail the details of the "sponsored Northern Expedition" materials that he inadvertently obtained from Jurong Xu Clan during the crusade against bandit deserters, as well as how he returned 40%, how to ensure the "loss" of 20%, and the fact that 40% had been put into storage.
Xun Rui, who had communicated privately before, came to ask seriously, "Your Highness, have all the remaining 40% of the supplies been sent to the Jiangcheng military depot?"
"That's what it said above. This document will be forwarded here after it is put into the warehouse." Sima Yu suddenly stood up. "No, I have to take a look. I didn't know how to farm before, and I was ridiculed for more than ten years. But today I can't be confused. How can it be so simple? Go to a county, settle a household, and get such a direct harvest? Is this worth Jurong's half-year's various taxes?"
Obviously, although he was curious, he was also using this to avoid certain situations.
"Yangzhou territory is my duty, I will accompany His Highness." Wang Shu suddenly spoke before Xun Rui, who actually had more stakes. "I don't understand poetry, but I know new rice and old rice."
Sima Yu was obviously taken aback, then smiled and quickly touched Wang Shu's hand, "Okay, let's go together."
Fan Wang Deng Ren next to him saw this and just smiled.
----I am the dividing line where we go together----
Emperor Taizu was ordered to exterminate South of the Yangtze thieves. At that time, Way of the Celestial Masters was in great prosperity. Many thieves were involved. He was called a magic weapon and a general, referring to the use of ghosts and monsters. There are countless people. But when I met Emperor Taizu, none of them had any effect. South of the Yangtze Daoist Order was shocked. Because I knew the difference between Emperor Taizu, I got help from many people.
