Man in the Heavens: Rewarding the Good and Punishing the Evil

Chen Chong snorted coldly, and then showed a regretful expression: "It's a pity, I originally wanted to share the blessings with you, but your running away directly caused me to monopolize Aobai's family property. Alas, so much gold and silver, I am so sad." !"

Chen Jinnan didn't take this to heart. Seeing that Chen Chong didn't seem to be holding a grudge, he felt relieved for the time being, and pulled him to introduce to the crowd behind him.

"Brothers, this is Chen Chong and Brother Chen who beheaded Oboi and eliminated the Tartar Emperor, and is also the newly promoted vice-head of the Qingmu Hall of our Tiandihui!"

Everyone heard what the chief helmsman said, and hurriedly cupped their hands and said: "I have seen Deputy Hall Master Chen!"

Chen Chong accepted the salute calmly, and then returned the salute: "I have met you brothers, and you are all brothers in the association, so there is no need to be so polite."

Seeing that he is still young, but he is able to take credit for it, everyone came forward to get acquainted with him.

Chen Chong was in the process of greeting someone, and accidentally caught a glimpse of A Ke on the boat waving the yellow flag, so he said, "Brothers, I will talk about the politeness later, it's more important."

After finishing speaking, he leaned into Chen Jinnan's ear and whispered: "Chief helmsman, those miserable women on board are all the wives and daughters of the passengers who were robbed and killed by water bandits. These people were rescued by me, but they have nowhere to take them in. Can't I bring it back to Fuzhou to settle down?"

After hearing Chen Chong's plan, Chen Jinnan was immediately in awe.

He has traveled north and south in these years, and he has done a lot of chivalrous things to eliminate the strong and help the weak, but because he holds an important position, he can only do it easily.

Chen Chong's willingness to spend time sweeping both sides of the canal to rescue these suffering women is undoubtedly a great act of righteousness.

Of course he has to support this kind of thing: "There is no problem at all, I can guarantee that no one will dare to bully them in the territory of Tiandihui!"

Chen Chong nodded slightly, turned his head and whistled at the boat, and then the gangway stretched out one after another, and countless women with their heads covered in black cloth came down from the cabin.

Seeing that the women were already ready, Chen Jinnan hurriedly asked his subordinates to rush to the cart and arranged for the escort of these women to Fuzhou.

Looking at the women who got into the car one after another, Chen Jinnan showed admiration on his face: "There must be 300 people here? Brother Chen is really chivalrous, Chen admires it!"

Chen Chong waved his hand, and said modestly: "The chief helmsman has won the award, and I just happened to meet it, and I have nothing else to do, so I just did it."

"Hahaha, Brother Chen, I, Lao Zhou, don't agree with what you said!"

The person came first before the person arrived, Chen Chong turned his head to look, only to see that the person who came was not Section Master Zhou and who?

He jumped off the black-covered boat, clasped his fists at them from afar and said: "Chief helmsman, Brother Chen, Brother Wei, brothers, I am late on the road, Lao Zhou, I will punish myself with three cups later! "

After finishing speaking, he rushed forward, looked at Chen Chong carefully, and patted Chen Chong on the shoulder with a smile: "I think back then, when the three of us were surrounded and killed by tartars in Lichun Courtyard, so many people didn't come to help, but Wei Brother stood up. It can be seen that some things in this world are the most difficult to do when they look simple, brother Chen, do you think what Lao Zhou said makes sense?"

Chen Chong smiled slightly, nodded in agreement and said, "It's just human nature to like life and hate death, Brother Zhou doesn't need to worry about it. Not only did we not get hurt, but we also got to know Xiaobao, a passionate man, the result is not bad."

"Brother Chen is right!"

Chen Jinnan nodded in agreement, then pointed at the cart and said, "Everyone, it's getting dark, how about we go on the road first? Even if we want to reminisce about the old days, we have to say it at Brother Chen's welcome banquet. Everyone is eating meat and drinking wine. How about a hair dryer here?"

"That's daring!"

Sectional Master Zhou's eyes lit up, and then he sighed: "Since we returned to the south, we haven't eaten meat for a long time."

Chapter 97

"Ask for favorites, recommendation tickets, monthly tickets, subscriptions! 』

Chen Chong originally thought that Sectional Master Zhou was joking, but it wasn't until everyone entered the restaurant and saw everyone eating, that he realized that Tian Di Hui seemed to be really having a hard time recently.

After receiving the wine that Chen Jinnan poured out, Chen Chong asked in surprise: "Chief lord, why are you all so miserable recently?"

Before Chen Jinnan could speak, he heard Wei Xiaobao suck the fans into his mouth, and rushed to complain: "Brother Chen, you don't know that everyone has tried everything to raise enough military expenses, but there are still many The gap, there is no way, we can only save a little by ourselves."

Although he had expected the situation of Tiandihui, Chen Chong never imagined that the situation is so bad now.

"How many gaps are there now?" he asked.

As the chief rudder of the Tiandihui, Chen Jinnan naturally knows a lot. How can he not have an account in his heart when he is making calculations these days?

Seeing Chen Chong's question, he just thought about it for a moment, and then told all kinds of expenses like a few treasures.

After talking about the various expenses required for raising an army, Chen Jinnan raised his wine glass and sighed: "Although we have grown stronger these years, under the suppression of the Qing court, our development has not been smooth.

Everyone has nowhere to live, so they can only be wandering soldiers. When they walk around the rivers and lakes, they can still rely on robbing the rich and giving to the poor to subsidize their expenses. But now once they start raising troops, they can't do these unpopular things.

Now, part of the money in the association is the membership money handed in by everyone every year, part is the settlement of each branch, part is donated by people who cherish their homeland, and part is obtained by Chen's alms.

But even if the money is added together, it is not enough to equip [-] brothers to fight against the Qing court for a month.

Now money and food are scarce, and as the head of the Tiandihui, I want everyone to tighten their belts to live, Chen is really ashamed. "

Wei Xiaobao hurriedly comforted: "Master, these days you are busy until late at night every day, and everyone can see it. As the old saying goes, 'you can be a master if you suffer hardships', we are all voluntary, and we can't blame you for that." .”

Hearing Wei Xiaobao's words, the rest of the congregation, who were feasting and drinking, also retreated for the time being, talking and trying to comfort them.

"It's nothing to eat now, but I didn't have to eat before!"

"Grit your teeth and endure it, and it will be fine to drive away the Tartars."

"As long as the brothers can conquer a few cities, there will be more gold, silver and food, then it will not be like it is now."

......

Everyone's relief made Chen Jinnan sweep away the gloom. He drank the wine in his glass and said proudly: "Everyone is right. It takes more than half a year of hard work to harvest the land, not to mention the fact that we are so big. thing?

Since ancient times, all those who have achieved great things have experienced thousands of difficulties and dangers. We are indeed struggling now, but our hard work will never be in vain.As long as everyone is united, we will be able to drive out the Tartars and restore our Han family! "

Seeing that Chen Jinnan cheered up again, everyone echoed, and the atmosphere immediately returned to enthusiasm.

While everyone was toasting each other, Chen Chong glanced at the surrounding dining tables.

He found that although there were wine and meat on other tables, they were far less rich than his own table.

"Although there is not enough money now, but Brother Chen has done such a big thing, of course the reception is not bad."

Seeing Chen Chong discovering the difference, Chen Jinnan said frankly: "Everyone needs to enjoy the tooth festival, as long as there is wine and meat, there is no need for extravagance."

Chen Chong picked the bridge of his nose and nodded thoughtfully.

Tiandihui is really struggling now, if so, wouldn't it be a little troublesome to settle those hundreds of women?

After a while, he immediately had an idea, and then said after deliberation: "Chief lord, I didn't think too much about bringing those girls here, why don't I pay for the expenses of arranging these people, and the chief rudder only needs to pay for it." Find a way to accommodate them."

Chen Jinnan was surprised. Those women had at least 300 people, let alone arranging accommodation for so many people, just talking about food and clothing would be a huge expense.

If you really want to settle them properly, not only will you need to worry about it, but you will also need to spend a lot of money, and this amount of money is definitely not a small amount.

After a few turns in his mind, Chen Jinnan tentatively said: "Brother Chen, I wonder how you plan to settle these women?"

Chen Chong picked up his wine glass and pondered: "On the way here, I probably asked those girls, some of them have nowhere to go, some don't want to go home, and the rest want to join relatives.

Is there a miracle doctor in Heaven and Earth?I plan to ask a doctor to cure their illnesses, and those who are willing to go will be paid for their travel expenses, and those who are willing to stay will be settled within the sphere of influence of the Tiandihui. "
