At the entrance of the Luo Zhou Mansion, a large number of commoners stuck their heads out and scrambled to see when the Provincial Governor would come out.
Yesterday, they heard that the Emperor was going to give out silver.
How could this be?
Everyone was stunned.
From the Qin Emperor to the Great Sui Dynasty, no one had ever seen such a good thing!
But, yesterday.
Some people saw it with their own eyes. Some commoners only needed to sign their names with the official's confirmation and then press a red handprint on the place where their names were. After the official proved their identity, they would get the silver they wanted.
Every month, they only needed to pay a few copper coins and pay the interest!
What was this?
It was a good thing that money fell from the sky!
Yesterday, some people received the silver and went home happily.
But more people were watching. But in the end, when they heard that millions of silver had entered the pockets of those merchants, they couldn't help it.
All the commoners were poor.
Even the house they lived in was propped up with wood. They did not have the money to repair it. However, if they could really get the money from the government, not only would they be able to repair the house, they would also have some money left over to buy some furniture. They could even have a few meals to fill their stomachs!
There were also some people who were squatting at the entrance of the Provincial Governor's Mansion with their identity certificates, hoping to get some silver to buy a set of things to live on. .
"It's almost the end of the day. The Provincial Governor's certificate still hasn't come out?"
"Yeah! Yesterday, he said that he would give out silver at the entrance of the Provincial Governor's Mansion. Why is he still not here at the end of the day? "
"Could it be that … the Provincial Governor is making fun of us?"
"It can't be, right? I saw with my own eyes that Gouleftover's father received an ingot of silver. That fellow seems to be in high spirits today and is working especially hard! "
"Hiss —!"
"He really got it?"
Everyone was shocked.
"Creak —!"
Just when everyone couldn't wait any longer and started to talk about it.
The tightly shut door of the Provincial Governor's Mansion finally opened.
Following the opening of the heavy door, a group of armored soldiers wearing shining Mingguang Armor and shining Mo Sabers with threatening cold air could be seen. They neatly divided into two groups and walked out of the Provincial Governor's Mansion.
When the crowd saw the armored soldiers, they were even more shocked.
He hurriedly shut his mouth and let go of the gate of the Provincial Governor's Office.
Following the appearance of these two groups of armored soldiers.
Soon after, civil officials and government officials carried thick stacks of account books and hurriedly appeared at the entrance. Then, soldiers carried ten large tables and surrounded the Provincial Governor's Manor.
As for the officials and civil officials, they sat in front of these tables and spread out their brushes and ink.
Until now.
Only then did the Provincial Governor appear in front of everyone.
Behind him, boxes with seals were being carried out with great difficulty, placed in front of the Provincial Governor's Office, and opened.
The dazzling silver ingots made everyone aghast.
However, just at that moment, the two rows of soldiers also revealed twisted expressions. They pulled out their modao blades and coldly swept their gazes over the crowd.
Wei Yujie first cupped his fists to the crowd and then said, "Today, the release of the silver ingots officially begins. But I still have a word of advice for everyone. This is the Imperial Family's silver ingots. The Emperor empathizes with the people and gives you the capital to live a better life!"
"If I find out who dares to squander this silver ingots in brothels, taverns, and gambling houses instead of using it for daily life, I will first punish him with thirty strokes of the cane, and then I will wait for the Emperor to punish him!"
"Today, I have three requests!"
"Those who are addicted to gambling, alcoholics, and debauchees, get out of my sight! If you are found by the officials, you all see these soldiers, right? "
Wei Yujie pointed at the soldiers wearing Mingguang Armor and said, "Once you are found, if you still dare to deceive me! First, ask this Mo Saber if he is willing! "
"Provincial Governor!"
"Don't worry! We are all the people in this city. We all want to take some money back to live a better life. If anyone is a debauchee, let alone the Provincial Governor, we will not let him go! "
"Yes! Provincial Governor, don't worry! This money, we will spend it wisely! Since it is the Emperor's pity, how would we dare to use it carelessly? : "
"Members of the Zhang Family, listen to this old man. Now, listen to what the Lord has to say! What kind of money is this? This is the money that the Emperor gave us to save our lives! Whoever dares to squander it will be punished according to the family rules! "
"Patriarch, don't worry! Whoever dares to do this will be beaten to death! "
"Beaten to death!"
Wei Yujie heaved a sigh of relief.
Looking at the agitated crowd, he waved his hand and said, "All rich families and merchants, stop issuing loans today. Don't ask. If you want to ask, ask those people from yesterday. They all took the money away. If you want to blame someone, blame them!"
"F * ck his mother!"
"Lao Tzu is still waiting to borrow some money to buy goods!"
"Damn it, Provincial Governor, they are rich to begin with. Why are they doing this?"
"Provincial Governor, catch them and cut them into pieces!"
All the people who were waiting to borrow money to start their businesses were angry.
At this time, the Provincial Governor had already spoken. What could they do?
All the merchants waved their hands and shouted with red eyes, "Let's go and find those sons of b * tches to ask for money! That is the money that the Emperor gave us! "
"Yes! Let's go! "
Wei Yujie turned a blind eye to this.
Instead, he said to the officials, "Pass down the order. If those people dare to hit people, arrest them! If these people hit people, as long as they don't kill people, pretend that you didn't see anything! "
"Yes …"
