This person is Duan Jingzhu!

Lu Zhishen knew this man, Duan Jingzhu, was a horse thief, who often stole horses from the Liao Kingdom and sold them to the Song Dynasty.

Lu Zhishen asked: "I want a good horse in the North, how much can you bring to me every month?"

Duan Jingzhu said cautiously: "It's no problem to have ten and twenty horses per month!"

Lu Zhishen looked down on this horse, and he opened his mouth and said, "It's only twenty horses? It's too small, at least hundreds or thousands of horses are enough. Can it be done?"

Hundreds and thousands of horses? Duan Jingzhu was shocked.

"Impossible, this can't be done. If you like this horse, you can't steal it... If you buy it, you won't be lucky enough to come to the Song Dynasty. The Liao Kingdom is quite loose for others, but it's important to limit good horses. It's not easy to pass!"

Lu Zhishen was very disappointed when he heard this. He persuaded. "Brother Duan Jingzhu, he is brave and timid. I believe that Brother Duan should have something to do in the Liao Dynasty. You can connect with others and bring the northern good horses. As for whom you go to buy horses with, I don't care. As long as you bring the good horses here, I will give you 50 taels of silver."

I heard that a horse is 50 taels, 10 horses are 500 taels, and 100 horses are 5000 taels.

Duan Jingzhu's breathing was rapid, and he seemed to have made up his mind. "Since the jailang valued me Duan Jingzhu so much, I will sell the 180 kilograms to the jailang. I will go to Daliao to make horses!"

"Wait for good news from Brother Duan!"

When Duan Jing lived out of the temple, Lu Zhishen said to Cao Zheng: "A horse thieves like Duan Jing lived, they could get two or three hundred horses back if they were so powerful that they could get two or three hundred horses back. This horse is useless at all. We should go to the Liao Kingdom to find some people with great hands and eyes, so that we can buy a large number of good horses!"

When Cao Zheng heard this, he said in surprise: "Shishu, how many good horses do you want to buy and how many people and land cavalry teams are you going to form?"

Lu Zhishen thought for a while and said, "How come he needs two or three thousand people?"

Two or three thousand people! That means more than two or three thousand war horses are needed?

Cao Zheng screamed. "It costs a lot to form so many cavalry teams in the temple, and it may even cost more than 100,000 taels of silver!"

Lu Zhishen looked at Cao Zheng with contempt. "It's just tens of thousands of taels of silver. Can't we Erlong Mountain afford it?"

"This..." Cao Zheng said in a low voice: "Shang Temple, our Erlong Mountain earns more than 300,000 taels every month, but is it too extravagant to raise so many cavalry? At first, Xiaoke thought that the temple wanted to raise three or five hundred cavalry to deal with emergencies in various places!"

Lu Zhishen has long been prepared for Cao Zheng's little rich and peaceful mentality. He is too lazy to explain to Cao Zheng now. "I have my own opinions on this matter. Just prepare the money!"

Just as Lu Zhishen knows Cao Zheng very well, Cao Zheng now also knows that once Lu Zhishen decides, he will not change easily.

And the most important thing is that many of Lu Zhishen's decisions were proven to be very correct in the end, just like if he hadn't made a tough demand to expand his troops.

How can we shock such villains and protect such industries now?

Since the temple now requires so many cavalrymen to be formed, Cao Zheng clasped his fists and said, "Xiao Ke understands that he will prepare the money. At the same time, he will also send people to the Liao Kingdom to find out if there is any horse merchant with all his hands and eyes!"

"Well, go and do it!"

After giving instructions to Cao Zheng, Lu Zhishen took his people to Yidu to ask for a meeting with Murong Magistrate.

Murong Mansion, Qingzhou Prefecture.

Hearing that Master Zhishen was coming, Murong Yanda hurried out. "Why did the master have time to come to my mansion today? Could it be that something is wrong!"

Lu Zhishen clasped his hands and said, "That's true! Lord Murong, a few days ago, a group of horse thieves sneaked into a factory in Qingzhou! I wonder if Lord Murong has heard of this?"

When Murong Yanda heard this, he sighed. I knew that Master Zhishen came here for this!

Murong Yanda said cautiously: "I have heard of it, but wasn't that group of horse thieves annihilated by the master and his men?"

"I just killed a few minions, but the thief escaped. I asked a few times in the past few days and heard that this group of horse thieves were pretended by people from the Zeng family in Lingzhou!"

Murong Yanda felt even more distressed when he heard that it was the Zeng family in Lingzhou.

Like him, Murong Yanda, who relied on his sister, Concubine Murong, to become the governor of Qingzhou, has always had a set of rules for being an official. It is to deceive the subordinates and follow the previous ones.

By bullying the officials and the people below, they can make friends with senior officials of the court by bullying the exploited money, so as to stabilize their sister's status, and even go further when their sister has a prince in the future!

Behind the Zeng family in Lingzhou, he was the prime minister of the dynasty, and he was one of the favorite officials of the current government.

Murong Yanda can't afford to be so arrogant, so why are you willing to offend such a person?

Murong Yanda fired a flower gun and said, "I understand! Master, don't worry, I will issue a document to the governor of Lingzhou, and blame the other party for indulging the bandits. I ask the other party to immediately eliminate the bandits!"

Hearing that the magistrate Murong was willing to issue official documents to the magistrate Lingzhou, he refused to submit a report to the magistrate of the court.

Lu Zhishen understood that he refused to offend Tong Guan.

As expected, relying on others rather than yourself. If you want to really solve this problem, you can only rely on yourself.

Lu Zhishen clasped his hands and said, "Thank you, sir, I will leave first!"

Seeing that Master Zhishen was leaving, Murong Yanda hesitated for a moment and reminded: "Master, the one who stood behind the Zeng family was the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. It is better not to offend the Zeng family unless it is absolutely necessary!"

Lu Zhishen turned around and said, "Sir, it's not that I want to make a grudge with the Zeng family. It's that the Zeng family is greedy and wants to seize the property of a member of Qingzhou. Baozhu Temple has been under these member of the member of the past for many years, so I can't sit idly by!"

Murong Yanda said in a little confused: "But I heard that the Zeng family paid ten thousand taels of gold to buy those factories. Ten thousand taels of gold is not small, and many outsiders also agreed. Master, why bother offending the Zeng family for those factories!"

Lu Zhishen was disappointed when he heard that Murong Yanda actually agreed to let the Zeng family acquire those factories.

This is the limitation of the times. If later officials absolutely do not agree to the development of good things and can provide a large number of labor positions, factories will be acquired.

Lu Zhishen knew the truth in his explanation to Murong Yanda, but he would not understand it either.

"Sir, Baozhu Temple has built many Sales Hospitals, and the factory's income can provide daily expenses for Sales Hospital. If the factory is sold, what will happen to these Sales Hospitals in the future? I will never agree to sell the factory. Please forgive me!"

When Murong Yanda heard this, he admired Master Zhishen even more. "It's true that the master is a disciple of the living Buddha sitting down, and he is indeed compassionate. For those orphans, there will be no heartache for ten thousand taels of gold. I admire him. Master, don't worry, I will do this for Lingzhou. I believe that once the writing is released, the Zeng family will not dare to offend Baozhu Temple again!"

Will the Zeng family let go of those factories easily if Murong Yanda writes a document like this?

Lu Zhishen doesn’t believe it!

In the middle hall of Zengjia Courtyard in Zengtou City, Lingzhou, Zeng Laozhe looked at Zeng Tu and Zeng Sheng. "That's what happened to seize the factory failed!"
