Chapter 682 The Shelf Is That Big

These words were spoken with great ease, but Huang Ma's scalp felt numb when he heard them.

In fact, he had known for a long time that Cen Ling came with Gao Sengtai this time, and with the relationship between Cen Ling and him, it was impossible not to slander himself in front of Gao Sengtai, but he did not expect that Gao Sengtai would give it to him in person. Get off on your own.

After all, this is Lingyun City!
Did Gao Sengtai think that he could walk sideways in Lingyun City by relying on the three hundred guards behind him and Cen Ling's three hundred wolf guards?Or did he simply not realize it?
Or in other words, he just wanted to show the majesty of the patrol, essentially just to warn himself?
After all, Huang Ma is a character who can endure for many years, and only after deceiving Cen Shaoxun's trust, he suddenly launched a "coup". At this moment, the situation is unclear. : "The next official is guilty."

This time, he really didn't dare to say that he deserved death.

Gao Wushi glanced at the wolf soldiers on the road ahead, obviously they were all a little upset, although they were kneeling, they all secretly looked this way.

Looking at Huang Ma who was subdued again, Gao Yushi said indifferently: "Since you are convicted, get up first, and don't use your tongue in front of Ben Accord in the future."

He paused for a moment, and then said: "I'm supposed to inspect the whole of Guizhou to see whether the local officials abide by the rules and regulations, and handle things according to the imperial court system. I don't have time to ask about other things, do you understand?"

Huh, what does this mean?
Huang Ma quietly raised her head and glanced in surprise, but saw that Gao Pragmatic's gaze was now looking at Cen Ling.Huang Ma couldn't help being overjoyed, and said to herself: It seems that Cen Ling really encouraged Gao Sengtai to take the knife on me, but Gao Sengtai didn't seem to want to be troublesome, so he only warned me, and at the same time told Cen Ling expressed his meaning.

Ha, let me just say, Cen Shaoxun's matter is just Sicheng's internal affairs, why did Gao Sengtai help Cen Ling?This is not in line with the court's usual practice at all, it makes no sense!
Isn't the consistent style of the imperial court all about restricting chieftains and supporting Tumu, Tushe and Tusi to compete for power?
It seems that this high-ranking official is only acting so hypocritically in front of me because of Cen Ling's affection. His fundamental attitude has not changed, and he still does not want to interfere in the internal affairs of Sicheng Prefecture.

That being the case, it might as well give him some face, hehe... civil servant.

"The lower officials understand, the lower officials must abide by the rules and laws, and cooperate with the inspections." Huang Ma put on her honest appearance again, and responded in a well-behaved manner.

Gao Wushi nodded in satisfaction, but he still looked like an invincible old man, pulling like two to five or eight thousand, and said indifferently: "Get up, and lead the way."

He didn't know whether he said "get up" to Huang Ma alone or to the seven earths together, but everyone pretended to know it, so they got up quickly when they heard this, but luckily Gao pressed the stage Say no more.

Huang Ma was devastated just now, and the others didn't want to know how serious Gao Yantai was, so they obediently bowed and stood aside, not daring to say a word.

Gao Wushi waited for Huang Ma to lead the way ahead, but he didn't even get off the horse. He patted the horse's hip lightly and walked forward slowly. He didn't even tell the servants to get off the horse.

Just like that, Huang Ma and the others led the way, because Gao Wushi didn't get off his horse, and he looked like a servant who was leading a horse and hanging his stirrups.
But since Huang Ma endured it, the wolf soldiers under his command had no choice but to follow dejectedly. How could there be any momentum to speak of?

There was no words all the way, and a group of people gradually went up the mountain.It was only after going up the mountain that I realized the magic of Lingyun City. It turned out that this city was as Cen Ling said before, there was a river passing through the city, and after passing the city, the river slowly flowed down the mountain.

The magic of this city is really rare. Judging from this situation, this Lingyun City is not easy to besieged to death, unless the river is poisoned on a large scale.However, this kind of thing is too inhumane on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is actually very difficult to deal with—how many sources of poison are needed to pollute a river and keep it poisonous?
No wonder Huang Ma was so confident that she almost collapsed just now.

After entering the city, a large number of chieftains of western Guangxi were already waiting at the prefectural office. Huang Ma had already arranged for Cen Shaoxun to "recover from illness", so he was naturally not in the prefectural office. .

When facing the chieftains, Gao's pragmatic attitude was better than before. Although he was still reserved and put on airs, at least he was not always expressionless.

The chieftains have long been accustomed to the virtues of court officials, especially the young inspector Gao Yushi. It is natural for them to have a little temper, but they don't think it is wrong at all. Gao Wushi greeted them according to the rules—of course, he was a superior, so he just sat down and greeted them.

Cen Ling and Huang Ma had never spoken to each other, and they rarely even looked at each other across the air. Occasionally, their eyes met, and they would turn their faces away with a cold snort, with a look of "I don't want to see you", Really hate each other.

When everyone met, Gao Yushi really took the inspection seriously, and ordered the chieftains to give a brief and important account of the situation of their own land administration, and then presented some files to Gao Yushi for inspection.

In fact, their files are pitifully small. In the place where the court officials are in charge, basically most of the things are recorded in the files. It is very convenient to check, but these chieftains are different. It is true that the records are not recorded. It all depends on the mood, after all, the imperial court did not investigate in the past.

Fortunately, Gao Wushi didn't intend to find out anything from the case files and files. After receiving these files, he said that he was tired from the journey, and he will stop here for the time being. For other things, he will invite all the chieftains to come tomorrow. Inquire for details.

Huang Ma hurriedly came out and said that the reception banquet has been prepared, please press the table and move with the chieftains, although the Zhizhou is not in Lingyun City today, but still want to show the friendship of the landlords.

Gao Wushi seemed to have expected this scene, and agreed easily, without making trouble out of faults, which relieved Huang Ma, who was always a little nervous.

However, Huang Ma was a little annoyed by Gao Pragmatic's arrogance, because even when the inspector went to have a meal, he was surrounded by a large group of family members, which was simply inexplicable.

But a person behind him explained to him with a smile: "Brother, don't worry. I heard that when I went to Guilin last time, this Gao Xun had a lot of money in his family. Not to mention his wealth, his uncle even It’s amazing—the Changlu Salt Farm belongs to his uncle’s family, brother, this is a business worth several million taels a year.”

Huang Ma was really taken aback: "How many millions? How much is the annual tribute in our Sicheng prefecture?"

How much silver?Sicheng Prefecture is Tuzhili Prefecture. Every three years, sixteen high-quality horses are presented to the imperial court, and each horse is converted into 24 taels of silver; the silver incense burner is fully paid; the grain is 640 six stones and nine buckets a year, and it is shipped to Changping, Pennsylvania warehouse, seven coins per stone.

The ones that are easy to settle accounts are added together, and it is less than 300 taels per year. Even if you add the silver incense burner, it is more than 400 taels of silver.The only thing worth mentioning is that the horse offering is not a war horse, but a pony horse that is a specialty of Yunnan, Guangxi and other places. It eats less and works much more. It is not good to use a stallion as a war horse.

Therefore, Huang Ma, a Tumu who has never seen anything in the world, naturally felt his liver tremble when he heard the transaction of several million taels of silver. It should indeed be, if it were him, Mr. Huang, who was so rich, wouldn't he have to walk on the carpet if he didn't go out?
He no longer doubted, and honestly led the way to the place where the banquet was held.
