"Zhao Lin? Impossible!"
Zhao Chenhan absolutely didn't believe it.
What a joke! He led the elite troops of the Zuo Yulin Guard and fought for several days but couldn't break through, but Zhao Lin led his rubbish local army to break through in just half a day?
And will Zhao Lin come to save me?
joke!
"Nothing is impossible. If you don't believe me, ask your sister." Feng Siyuan said lightly.
Zhao Chenhan looked at Zhao Mingya.
Zhao Mingya hesitated for a moment and nodded with difficulty.
Zhao Chenhan's vision suddenly went dark.
Why would he come all the way here if he doesn't go fight other rebels?
Isn’t it just to compete with Zhao Lin?
As a result, he even asked Zhao Lin to rescue him.
This was unacceptable to Zhao Chenhan.
He could accept being saved by anyone except Zhao Lin.
"Zhao Lin, Zhao Lin..."
Zhao Chenhan gritted his teeth and suddenly said, "He must be colluding with the rebels, otherwise how could he defeat them so easily?"
Not only Feng Siyuan, but also Han Renjie and the others didn't want to hear this.
"Chenhan, you're tired, go back first." Han Renjie grabbed Zhao Chenhan's shoulders and dragged him away without saying anything. He turned around and said to Feng Siyuan, "Thank you, Lord Feng, for saving my life. Please also thank Lord Zhao for us. The Duke of Ying will definitely reward you handsomely."
Bai Shicheng, Jiang Yichen and others also expressed their gratitude and followed Han Renjie away.
Staying any longer would be a joke.
"It's true that people are more likely to die than others."
Feng Siyuan's slow voice came from behind, and Zhao Chenhan's face looked extremely ugly.
After leaving Carp Island, Zhao Chenhan broke free from Han Renjie's restraints and angrily said, "Why did you pull me out? Did I say something wrong?"
Han Renjie looked at Zhao Chenhan disappointedly. His aunt and uncle only raised such a thing?
When I heard him talk in prison before, he seemed to make sense. How come he became like this in the blink of an eye?
I have to tell my parents and grandpa later that with Zhao Chenhan in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, I'm afraid it won't last long.
Han Renjie concealed his emotional turmoil and gestured for the others to leave, leaving only Zhao Mingya behind. He then said, "Even if Zhao Lin is colluding with the rebels, do you have evidence? Without evidence, it's slander, and it's slander against a man who just quelled the rebellion and saved us. If this gets out, how do you think others will view you? Who will come to your rescue if something happens again? If His Majesty finds out, do you think he will have any objection to you?"
Zhao Chenhan said proudly: "As long as my father is here, no one dares to say anything to me."
Han Renjie sighed and said to Zhao Mingya, "Please persuade him."
Han Renjie turned and left.
If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would hit Zhao Chenhan.
Zhao Mingya advised, "Zhao Lin is definitely connected to the rebels, but we have no evidence. We'll investigate slowly after we get back, and we'll definitely find evidence."
Zhao Chenhan said angrily: "Why didn't you say it was Zhao Linpo's rebel when you were in prison? You made me lose such a big face. If I had known it was him, I wouldn't have gone there."
Zhao Mingya sighed secretly and said, "It doesn't matter. Anyway, the Zuo Yulin Guard is still in your hands. Let's go and defeat other rebels."
…
"All the rebel leaders are here, except Li Feng."
Xu Zhong interrogated him and said.
Feng Siyuan asked, "Who is Li Feng?"
"Li Feng was originally a rebel in Qingzhou. He was defeated by me and fled. I didn't expect him to escape again this time." Zhao Lin explained.
Feng Siyuan asked Wang Li curiously, "Everyone else ran away, why didn't you run away?"
Wang Li said angrily, "That bastard not only ran away without warning us, but he also set the boat on fire. Otherwise, how could we have been caught?"
Feng Siyuan smiled and said, "This Li Feng is quite a character."
Xu Zhongdao said, "The real hero isn't Li Feng, but his military advisor, Song Huaian. It's said that the rebels' fighting methods these days were all formulated by Song Huaian, and the plan to capture Zhao Chenhan was also arranged by Song Huaian."
"There are still people like this?" Feng Siyuan became interested and asked, "Did he run away too?"
Xu Zhong said: "He ran away with Li Feng."
"What a pity, otherwise he would be a talent under my command." Feng Siyuan said regretfully.
Zhao Lin said, "My lords, my mission is complete, so I will withdraw now."
Anyway, what Zhao Lin wants is money, and as for the subsequent credit, they can divide it among themselves.
Feng Siyuan said, "Okay, Master Zhao, you go first. I'll send the money to you as soon as it arrives."
Xu Zhong said, "Thank you very much for this. When you return to Beijing, please come and see me."
Zhao Lin nodded: "Goodbye, both of you."
Zhao Lin left with his soldiers.
There will naturally be arguments about how to distribute the credit later, but it has nothing to do with Zhao Lin.
After returning to the Qingzhou government office, Zhao Lin immediately ordered the purchase of seed grain and announced to the people the method of providing loans to buy seed grain.
That is Qingmiao Loan.
The people of Qingzhou and nearby Wuzhou and Yuezhou were all jubilant.
Many people have eaten up all the crops they planted.
And spring plowing is approaching.
Without growing crops, they could only watch the land go to waste and then starve to death.
They can also choose to sell their land and then starve to death after spending all the money from the sale.
Regardless of the space, the consequences for people who lose their land are tragic.
It was at this time that the big landlords and powerful people annexed land and grew stronger step by step.
Zhao Lin would not allow such a thing to happen under his rule.
As for Wuzhou and Yuezhou, they were all matters of favor.
Anyway, the silver was given by the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
When the time came to plant crops, Zhao Lin immediately issued loans in the three states.
In fact, it is very simple. The people bring their identity documents to collect the amount of grain they need, then sign and seal their names, and repay the loan with grain or money after the autumn harvest.
The interest rate is also very low, only 3% per month.
That is to say, if you sow one pound of grain, you only need to pay back one pound and one ounce and eight grams of grain in six months by the time of autumn harvest.
Such a low interest rate immediately caused a sensation among the people of the three states.
They all came to take out loans.
In fact, such lending is not uncommon in various places, but their interest rates are too high. The lowest monthly interest rate is 2%, which is still a conscience price. The highest is even 5%. The grain grown by the people is not enough to repay the loan, and then they either have to sell themselves or sell their land. Good families are ruined because of a grain loan.
By doing this, Zhao Lin naturally offended many stakeholders, most of whom were officials at all levels.
So in order to save trouble, Zhao Lin directly sent the Qingzhou Army to various places to issue grain loans, and anyone who dared to cause trouble would be executed on the spot.
After killing a group of people, and with Feng Siyuan's support, no one dared to make trouble again.
The Qingmiao loan proceeded smoothly.
This busyness lasted until March.
Zhao Lin not only provided young crop loans to the people, but also planted crops on his own one million acres of land.
Just waiting for the autumn harvest.
When Li Xingye and Fu Chengwang learned of Zhao Lin's actions, they were shocked.
"He can actually come up with such a method, he is simply a genius."
Li Xingye and Fu Chengwang have been meeting frequently recently, and he would praise him as soon as they met.
