Sir, you have to pay more

Monk Wang did not come to Beijing specifically to buy an official, but to honor his backer, Yonggui and his son.

A monk Hua transformed himself into a five-rank Daotai in Shandong without spending a penny, and it was natural for him to be a Shangshu-level figure who could do this.

Yonggui was as famous as Agui when he first served in the military aircraft department, and he was also known for his incorruptibility when he was the governor of Zhejiang. Later, he was promoted to a high-ranking official in the imperial court by continuously impeaching corrupt elements.

To a certain extent, it is very similar to Lao Fu. In the past, Lao Fu was also a famous anti-corruption pioneer because he kept exposing Shangguan corruption to the court.

Of course, Lao Fu has Nala behind him to help him.

Yonggui, on the other hand, really came up head-on, because he even impeached Li Wei and Zhaohui.

Comparing the two, Yonggui is more capable than Laofu.

However, Yonggui still committed the common fault of being an official.

It's just that once you get old, seeing that you don't have many years to live, and there is not much room for improvement in thinking, you can't help but think about your children and those around you.

After thinking about it, no matter how clean and honest an official is, he will not be guaranteed at the end of his life and become a member of the corrupt elements.

To put it more clearly, Yonggui was harmed by his precious son Yi Jiang'a.

His precious son was ignorant, he couldn't even pass the entrance examination for a translator, and he couldn't do anything until he was in his thirties.

In order to pave the way for his son, Yonggui had no choice but to give up his face and ask someone to do things, so he let his son earn money with a pen stick in the Lifan Academy, and then asked someone to get his son to the official department to train for a while.

During this process, it is impossible for Yonggui not to engage in power transactions.

How can he keep his original intention once he does it.

After being recalled by the emperor from northern Xinjiang to become Minister of the Household Department, Yonggui even directly arranged for his son to be the head of the Shandong Qingli Department of the Household Department.

Of course, in the eyes of outsiders, Yongbutang is to promote talents without avoiding relatives.

Even Qianlong praised it.

In Jia Liuping's memorabilia to the imperial court after he put down the Qingshui Rebellion in Shandong, Yi Jiang'a was ranked ninth, which means that he "had meritorious service in supervising the reform of the water transportation and well-raised money and food."

The governor of Shandong, Guotai, also gave a favor, saying that Yi Jiang'a had contributed a lot in helping Shandong to relieve the victims.

As a result, Jia Liu, the greatest hero in suppressing the chaos, was imprisoned and deported to Beijing by a decree of Qianlong, and Yi Jiang A was transformed into a doctor of the Eight Banners Salary Department of the Ministry of Households.

It is not uncommon for father and son to be officials in the same dynasty, but father and son are officials in the same department, which is really impossible to find in all dynasties with lanterns.

Regardless of which dynasty, father and son are in the same unit, or three generations of grandparents are in the same unit, this unit must be fat and corrupt.

Of course, Jia Liu has no objection to this, because the things that Yonggui and his son have done are nothing compared to what he has done.

Yonggui and his son had no objection to using a well-known Monk Hua in the capital as a fifth-rank official in Shandong. Who doesn't need a private person?

The party is divided.

Honest officials also have parties.

If Jia's family is expected to take over the Qing Dynasty, none of his henchmen can succeed.

The Gongjinhui is essentially a persuasive group prepared by Jia Liu for himself on behalf of the Qing Dynasty.

Whoever does not persuade him to come in shall be allowed to see the first emperor.

Jia Liu has always treated people with kindness and kindness, but he made his fortune by killing people and shooting black guns.

Now he has restrained himself and deliberately packaged himself, but the ancestral craftsmanship is not something he can throw away whenever he wants.

The matter between Monk Wang and Ai Jiang's wife and concubine was not objected to by the parties involved, and they were happy, so outsiders could point fingers and say sour words.

According to Monk Wang himself, he heard from Mr. Yi that Mr. Jia Jia has official sales here, so he came here specially to ask Mr. Jia Jia to sell him a magistrate.

There is only one requirement for the prefect king and monk, either Shandong or Zhili, no matter how far away it is.

Because, he needs to be able to go to Beijing anytime and anywhere to do something to honor his benefactor Yonggui father and son.

As for money, Monk Wang is very open-minded. If others buy a magistrate, for example, 10,000 taels, he is willing to give 5000% more, that is, [-] taels.

To show his sincerity, he specially sent several female dolls he bought in Shandong to Mrs. Jia Jia. They were all carefully selected. It can be used at home for a year or two.

Be in a hurry, use it now.

His attitude was more upright and more sincere than anyone who gave gifts to Jia Liu before.

What can Jia Liu do?
It is a truth passed down by the elders not to reach out and not hit the smiling face.

After having a chat with Monk Wang, Jia Liu told the people below to see if there were any prefects in Shandong and Zhili, and asked Monk Wang where he lived, and asked him to go back and listen.

It takes at most three days to give him a letter of approval.

Five female dolls were accepted.

To be at ease.

After the people left, Shuan Zhu took the five female dolls to the mansion without the young master's orders, handed them over to the housekeeper Zhao Jinzhong to settle them down, and then questioned them in detail one by one.

After asking about it, he came to the young master angrily, and scolded that Monk Wang for being inhuman.

"Fortunately, he has been a monk before. He has no mercy from the Buddhist school. He is clearly a personal trafficker! If this kind of person has no retribution, he can continue to be an official. He deserves to rebel against the Qing Dynasty!"

"Why are you making such a big fuss? You are so angry that it is not only the young master's loss, but also the Qing Dynasty's loss."

While reviewing the official documents, Jia Liu signaled Shuan Zhu to sit down and speak slowly.

Several official documents were sent from the yamen of the infantry commander, and they were normal work arrangements at the end of the year.

Before going to Baoding without a formal handover, Jia Liu must be responsible to the Yamen, the commander of the infantry.

"Master, according to those girls, Monk Wang bought more than a hundred people in total, all of them are girls, no boys."

The more Shuan Zhu talked, the angrier he became, saying that Monk Wang still picks the ugly ones, and only buys the pretty ones.

The ones bought are also very cheap. Parents who are over ten years old will be given ten pennies, and those under ten will only be given five pennies.

"Those fathers and mothers who were affected by the disaster had no food and couldn't survive. They were desperate for money and had no choice but to sell their daughters to Monk Wang. After this guy arrived in Beijing, he gave three to Yonggui and his son, and kept a few for himself. He sold all the other dolls to Hutong at a price of [-] yuan each. If he hadn't asked the young master to do something, those five girl dolls would have been sold to Hutong as well."

Seeing the young master patronizing official documents, Shuan Zhu didn't raise his head to express his anger, and shouted angrily: "Master, this is the place you often go to!"

"Keep your voice down, it's not like I don't know."

Jia Liu put down the pen, carefully checked that there was no problem with his reply, then blew on the ink, and then closed it gently.

Where is the alley, they know.

What good will happen to those girl dolls in the alley?

Maybe some dolls were sold to be ruined by the pawnbrokers in the alley tonight.

Lost conscience.

"Master, these dolls are suffering very much, you can't let them go into the fire pit,"

Shuan Zhu was so anxious that he wanted to go to the alley to redeem him. Many young masters refused to pay, so he asked the young master to give him the money he had saved.

Laiwang is also back, he is another investigator.

Using 30 taels of silver, he obtained his details in Shandong from the mouth of the coachman who accompanied Monk Wang to Beijing.

According to the coachman, Monk Wang was an acquaintance in Gaotang Prefecture, Shandong Province. Relying on the power of Yonggui and his son, he blackmailed wealthy gentry in Gaotang after taking office.

There were four who contributed 5000 taels of silver, six who contributed 3000 taels, and the others added up to at least 10,000 taels of contribution.

In just a few months, no less than 50,000 taels of silver were knocked in Gaotang.

"This guy is crazy in Gaotang. People call him Master Wang. If any big family in the city doesn't invite him to do business, they will send yamen servants to make trouble and force them to send women to sleep with him."

Just as Laiwang was talking, Shuan Zhu jumped up in a hurry: "Master, no matter how much money this bastard gives you, you can't just accept it in secret. You have to be the master of the people, act for the sky, and be the blue sky!" , be Jia Qingtian, young master!"

Jia Liu was speechless by Shuan Zhu's impatience, and he didn't bother to pay attention to him. Instead, he threw the badge of his nine admirals to Lai Wang, and ordered: "There are many reports from Zhili, Shandong, and Henan in the past saying that there are many cases in various places. There are monsters who call souls, seduce people's hearts, and kill people's lives. Most of these monsters' braids have been cut off. I saw that Monk Wang's braids were dim and colorless, and most of their roots were broken. You hold my brand and hold them, and treat them like braids. Whether it is rooted or not, if not, it must be a demon, send him to the yamen of the infantry commander, and I will go there for interrogation later."

"Whoo!"

Laiwang took the badge and bowed to his orders to withdraw.

Shuan Zhu was delighted to hear that, thinking that the young master would take him to rescue those female dolls soon, but he didn't expect the young master to say nothing.

"Young master, it will be too late if you don't save those girl dolls."

Shuan Zhu almost begged, he couldn't see those female dolls being sold into alleys and suffering.

"save?"

Jia Liu shook his head, "How can I save it? They bought it with money and are protected by the laws of the Qing Dynasty. How can you save it?"

Shuan Zhu stood there in a daze.

Yes, these female dolls were sold by their parents to Monk Wang voluntarily, and Monk Wang resold them to Hutong. There is no problem in the whole process in terms of law.

Morally wrong for sure, but really not illegal.

Although the young master is the admiral of the Nine Gates and has the power to arrest and arrest people in the capital, he really has no right to interfere with human transactions protected by law.

Shuan Zhu was helpless: "Master, if it really doesn't work, let's pay a high price to redeem him. The most money will be mine. In the future, Master will deduct it from my salary."

"Zhuzi, I know you have a kind heart, but there are so many poor people in this world, how many can you save?"

"If you can save one person, it's fine if you can't see the pillar and don't know it. If you don't save people if you know it, am I still a human? The young master is not a human being either."

"You speak as if the young master has been a human being before,"

Jia Liu looked angry, "What are you doing standing there? Change my clothes."

Shuan Zhu was puzzled: "What are you doing changing clothes?"

"Zhuzi, can you use your brain!"

Jia Liu was so angry that he wanted to flick Shuanzhu's bald head with two fingers, "It's the Queen Mother's national mourning period, and the imperial court stipulates that all entertainment venues will be closed for [-] days. Do you think the alley will really abide by the law and close its doors?" Going out of business?"

"It shouldn't be."

"It's not supposed to be, it's definitely!"

Jia Liu sneered, the alley was really going to be closed, how did Monk Wang sell the girls there.

Based on his many years of experience in the alleys, those bustards would not dare to open the door, but the girl in the building cannot have a holiday.

Therefore, he has to go deep into the front line to investigate in person.

The patrol battalion to which the infantry commanded the yamen itself had the heavy responsibility of checking the security of the outer city, and it was also the biggest protection umbrella for the hutong industry in the capital.

Since I will be leaving Beijing after the Chinese New Year, why don't I contribute to this post.

Seeing the young master in plain clothes gearing up, Shuan Zhu felt that the young master was not here to save people, but to meet an old friend.

Based on this worry, he couldn't help asking: "Master, you don't mean to miss Da Yuer, do you?"

"Nonsense, I don't defy the law and I don't sacrifice myself, how can I get first-hand evidence?"

Jia Liu looked like you don't understand law enforcement at all.
