Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

As soon as the officials from the Ministry of Rites walked to the door of the Ministry of Revenue, they heard a hubbub of noise from inside. A lot of people were shouting inside. It seemed that someone had made the first move.

A few officials lifted their clothes and quickly ran up the stairs to squeeze into the crowd. However, they found that the hemiparesis s had already started making trouble for them.

"What are you talking about? Say it again if you have the guts! My ancestors entered the pass from the dragon, and the Emperor rewarded me with ironclad crops. How dare you use paper to fool me? I'll tear him apart … "

"Look, this is how the imperial government treats meritorious service. All eight generations of men under the yellow flag are working hard for the imperial government. Even I was injured on the battlefield …" After saying that, idler, who was leading the group, raised his hands.

"My hand is crippled. Who is it for? If it wasn't for our court … I got injured because of fighting Xiao Letian, but I never thought that after picking up my life on the battlefield, when I returned back to Beijing, I would be even more furious, to actually suffer Xiao Letian's wrath … "

"Wuwuwu, our ancestors! Open your eyes and take a look, the imperial court has no face left to speak of. Even though they know Xiao Letian did not have any good intentions, they still lick their cheeks and stick to the internet … "

"I was just going to ask the dirty officials in your Department of Revenue how much benefits did they get from eating Xiao Letian. How did you do such a wicked thing? If you don't want to give me the silver, you can just say it! "" If you do not want to give it to me, you can just give it to me! ""

With one sentence, it resonated with the surrounding people. No one listened to the explanation given by the official in charge of the Ministry of Revenue and started to discuss, "That's right! If he knew that the imperial government was going to print white strips, would he have imprinted them himself? Actually there is no need for it to be printed, as long as the seal is signed, wouldn't it be fine to just write a promissory note, why take off your pants and fart so that Xiao Letian can flip the hand in the middle of it? "

"If there are no ghosts inside, I will dig out their eyeballs. Who knows how much money they have stolen from Xiao Letian, I can tell everyone, the imperial government just doesn't want to give us money …"

A few officials from the Department of Rites asked in puzzlement, "Isn't the eight flags being paid by the Ministry of Internal Affairs's people? "Why did you come to the account office today to collect your money?"

"You don't know …" A few officials of the Military Department beside sneered and said, "Actually, when the Imperial court established the Ministry of Revenue, it had already set up a pay office. Back then, it was impossible to make the pay for the Eight Flag go into the account of the Ministry of Revenue …"

"At that time, the banner man's business was spread all over the country, and it was the most profitable business. Who would want to get involved with the Department of Revenue, so for the past two hundred years, it was the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Palace of Patriarchs who came to give out the silver …"

But it's different today, the Ministry of Internal Affairs's group of old men, when they heard that they are going to pay the Eight Flag Ancestors with their bonds, they were all so shocked that they pushed it aside and did not take the job at all. The Ministry of Revenue wanted to pass on their bonds to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but they actually did not take it.

"Furthermore, Ministry of Internal Affairs had already announced it to the public early in the morning, and told the qipao lords to go to the Ministry of Revenue and collect the money … That's why such a thing happened! "

When everyone heard this, they shook their heads and sighed, "How embarrassing, this is really embarrassing. The imperial government doesn't need money to send it, so we have a difficult time spending time with the imperial government, but what's wrong with using a broken piece of paper to deceive people?"

The official's words were echoed by the eight flag hemiparesis s. "You are right, it is indeed the Ministry of Rites. If the imperial government doesn't have the money, we can wait. At most, we can go to the northwest … However, deceiving him with a piece of scrap paper was wrong. I don't want the money, I'll tear it off! Tear it! "

As he spoke, the half-crippled old man's fingers tore apart a fine print of the bonds with a ripping sound. Why did he say clip? Because he didn't have the support of his thumb, he could only use his fingers to tear it apart.

A few housekeepers and servants who paid for it were so infuriated that their veins were popping out, "Ninth Master!" Have you thought about it? You just signed your name and received the money, which means that the imperial government has already paid you. That is twenty pieces of Dragon-striated Silver Coin! "

"Pah …" This grandpa has money, I don't care about it. I would rather tear it up than be tricked by you … Big guy, did you say it was right?! "

"Yes!" The crowd burst into cheers. "Tear it! Tear it all!" After saying that, someone went up to seize it.

This time, the Ministry of Revenue will not accept the deal. It's none of their business if you tear up your own bonds, but if you tear up the Ministry's money, it will be a crime.

"Men, protect the chest! No one is allowed to snatch it away!" Didn't you all want to tear it apart? "Sign it, and take back what belongs to you. Tear whatever you want …"

"If you want to sign, then sign. Who's afraid that you'll fail …" Ministry of Rites, Ministry of Government, Ministry of Justice … There was also a group of zealous Eight Flag Masters who had gathered around to collect their money. They wanted to tear this scam apart in the Clear Household Department.

The hemiparesis who was causing trouble shouted arrogantly towards the people outside the yamen, "Don't wait any longer. If you want money, don't even think about it. The account department had actually given him such a crappy piece of paper. They had used promissory notes to fool people! "You won't be able to get your money back, and you won't be able to start a business today either …"

"Hahaha …" They were all a group of paupers! "I don't have any wine to drink today, nor do I have anything to show for it. Eight streets full of spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums, I can't pity you today either …"

When they heard this, they were so scared that their foreheads started to sweat. They wanted to shout out loud at that moment, but when they turned around to look at the few men in white satin robes sitting at the corner of the street, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak anymore.

The man leading the group probably hadn't eaten breakfast yet. He was holding a bowl of tea and drinking it carefully. It was as if he hadn't seen the farce in the Ministry of Revenue.

Strangely enough, he didn't say a word, and all the sellers on the street didn't dare to say anything. They just let the young boy continue to shout about his business and fight for the business that was no longer possible.

The man drinking the tea was surnamed Ding, who was one of the Second Manager s that escorted four million silver taels into the capital.

Today, he was here to watch a good show. "Hehe, I don't have the kind intentions to become a Bodhisattva. Aren't they willing to tear me apart?" "Just go and tear them apart. There will always be times when they cry …"

At this time, an even more chaotic uproar came from the yamen of the Ministry of Revenue. Everyone looked like they had gone mad as they said, "Rip!" Tear it up! "We would rather die of poverty than be tricked like this. Tearing away …"
