It has roots and is self-purifying.

Great wisdom of its own.

Without roots, there is no wisdom, because that wisdom is passed on by those who have roots.

Chen Zeng, the supervisor of Shandong mines, is in a catastrophe this time.

It was also his fate to have a roommate to this catastrophe.

Boiled beans burn beans, and beans cry in the kettle.

Chen Gonggong is an old mine supervisor, the first batch of old employees who were ordered to run a mine, with full qualifications and high status.

He, Gao Huai in Liaodong, Ma Tang in Tianjin, and Chen Feng in Hubei were collectively called the "Four Heavenly Kings" by the good people in the palace.

Now, the four heavenly kings have come to an abrupt end, Gao Huai lost power due to the military mutiny, Chen Feng was killed due to the civil mutiny, Dumatang and him Chen Zeng are old and strong, and the more they fight, the stronger they become.

Ma Tang, up.

As he wished, he entered Beijing as a big pen, Chen Zeng did not rise, but the territory was larger, and there was more oil and water.

This is still thanks to Donglin Li Daxianggong, if it wasn't for Li Daxianggong knocking him out, how would Chen Zeng know that the gang under him actually cheated on his old man.

In more than a month, Chen Zeng ruthlessly cleaned up the team, firmly grasped the mining industry in various places, and extended his hand to Xuzhou, and also sent people to Huai'an, Haizhou, and Yangzhou to "inspect" the salt industry.

It is said that his old man is going to play and ask Yu Huaiyang to open the salt prison.

Salt and iron monopoly, the fattest in the world in ancient times.

I have to say that Chen Gonggong has a unique vision.

If he can successfully send a group of salt supervisors, his old man will have a lot of trouble.

When his subordinates hurriedly came to report that a maritime eunuch had come to Beijing and asked Chen Gonggong to meet him, Chen Gongcheng was busy listening to the results of his subordinates' inspections of Haizhou (Lianyungang) and Huai'an (Yancheng).

At that time, Gonggong Chen was furious, who was he, who was the maritime eunuch, and dared to ask him to see him!

As soon as the little eunuch passed by, he didn't take the initiative to visit Grandpa Chen, but asked Grandpa Chen to see him, he was really tired, and he thought the errand was too happy.

If you make Gonggong Chen unhappy, you can immediately strip off the official uniform on your body by saying hello to Beijing, even if you are beaten to death.

In the past 20 years, the death rate of the internal prisoners sent abroad is half, and at that time, it was reported that this kid flaunted his might, forcibly seized people's property, killed people and set fires, provoked civil unrest along the way, and died, and no one could say that it was not.

But soon, Gonggong Chen's anger subsided, because his subordinates said that the Admiral Maritime Eunuch led the army.

There are dozens of boats on the canal, mighty, and the banner seems to be the Son of Heaven pro-army of the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

Other prisoners sent down, Gonggong Chen didn't pay attention to them, but the Imperial Horse Supervisor had to be cautious.

After all, people are big yamen who have soldiers in their hands and can compete with the celebrant and eunuch.

Liu Jixiang of the Imperial Horse Prison is a short-term protector again, and if he wants to offend him, he may give him Chen Gonggong's small shoes to wear one day.

But even so, it was impossible for Gonggong Chen to meet the maritime eunuch.

The identities of the two sides are here, and the qualifications and status are too different.

At present, with the emperor's attention to the mine tax supervisors, the mine tax supervisors everywhere are no less than the eunuchs who guard the town.

This is placed in the outer court, at least at the level of a squire.

And the guy who passed by, Mo said that the maritime eunuch had never heard of this thing, and he was really the eunuch of the imperial horse eunuch, and he was not as powerful as Duke Chen.

Therefore, it is impossible for Gonggong Chen to go.

However, he eventually came with a calm face.

Because, the other party actually grabbed his pigtails.

……

Father-in-law Wei doesn't like to rob his colleague's things, but this colleague is too fat, too fat.

The so-called money strengthens people's courage, and if you don't grasp the opportunity that comes out of thin air, you can't live with the conscience of heaven and earth.

With a gun in his hand and someone behind him, he didn't panic.

After inquiring and understanding that although this Shandong bigwig's subordinates have raised thousands of thugs and murderers, they can be scattered everywhere, just to help the rabble, unlike Gao Huai to make a flying tiger army, Wei Gonggong calculated the difference in strength between the two sides, and the strength that can be quickly mobilized in a short period of time, so he wants to deceive him Shandong bigwig.

If you don't deceive white, you can count it as training.

If Chen Zeng doesn't know each other, fuck the guy and fuck him, let's fight first.

As for what the emperor said afterwards, it depends on whose filial piety is more.

Gonggong Wei believes that Banzai today is a son of heaven who talks about efficiency, and only looks at the result in everything, not the process.

So, he is very confident.

I am really grateful to Governor Tian Dadu, it was he who brought this opportunity to make a fortune to Gonggong Wei in his busy schedule.

Of course, the person that Grandpa Wei wants to thank the most is actually the butcher Cheng Shouxun.

This person is also his predecessor, the first to advocate the mine tax envoy, the emperor's special order in the scholar, the value of the Wuying Palace. This is also Chen Zeng's pioneer and a good hand in mining in Shandong.

It's just that the originally very pleasant cooperation was due to Li Sancai's intervention, which caused the boats on both sides to capsize.

Comrade Shouxun had a very hard life, when he was a child, he herded sheep for others, and when he grew up, he saw a shortcut to the road of life by chance, so he bravely stood up, not only for himself, but also for the Son of Heaven who was also troubled by money with him.

Your Majesty, don't you have no money!

It doesn't matter if you don't have money, open a mine!

If you don't open it, your courtiers, and your people are opening it, so if you don't open it, you'll lose it!

The whole world is not the king's land, why can those officials and rich people occupy the mines, but your majesty can't.

A word wakes up the dreamer.

Cheng Shouxun succeeded, His Majesty was richly rewarded, and he also got what he thought of.

Butcher Cheng not only became an official, but also accumulated thousands of family fortunes by relying on his own hard work.

Of course, the butcher in the middle may also have rough methods, and there is a possibility of being involved in crime and evil.

But in any case, this pig killer who no one used to pay attention to has made a fortune.

If there was no Li Sancai, Butcher Cheng's life would have been very fast.

Now, disaster has fallen from the sky, 20 years of hard work, and no one is willing to return to work hard overnight.

The hundreds of thousands of taels of silver that were spit out alive had to be earned back by killing as many pigs as many cattle as they could.

Cheng Shouxun was still very smart, he didn't dare to fall out with Chen Zeng, but after he went back, his identity quickly changed.

In order to give himself justice, Cheng Shouxun chose to take the judicial route, so he became a secret petitioner - the person behind the scenes instructed to sue for him.

Cheng Shouxun has taken two judicial paths, one is the right path and the other is the wrong path.

The so-called righteous path is self-caressing, scientific and honest, and all inspectors.

And the side road, it is the factory guard.

As he expected, Li Sancai's power was too strong, and the right path could not be followed.

When the governor and governor of Shandong heard that someone was complaining, it was Donglin Li Daxianggong and mine supervisor Chen Zeng, who ignored him?

These two people, no one can be taken down by Shandong Fu or Press.

If he really wanted to win it, Chen Zeng would not have been arrogant in Shandong for so many years.

As for Li Sancai, it is impossible for them to be killed even if they are killed, because if they write to impeach Li Sancai, they will not be traitors but traitors.

Literati love fame, and so do officials.

The world's reputation is in the hands of the Donglin Party.

Shandong Fu and pressed that he didn't dare to accept this case, and this complaint was naturally sued to Jingshi, and no one paid attention to it. is reasonable, willing to go to the book, this sparse also made the Donglin Party suppressed.

At the beginning, Zou Yuanbiao went to Tongzhou to persuade Li Sancai to retreat bravely, so he took this matter out. How did he know, the answer is needless to say.

The righteous path was completely blocked, and Cheng Shouxun was depressed in his heart, so he could only put his hope completely on the sidetrack.

As a result, the deviation was done!

Cheng Shouxun's luck was very good, and the complaint did not fall into the hands of others, but in the hands of Tian Ergeng, who relied on Li Yougong and was transferred to Jinyi Weibei Town.

If it were a different person, I am afraid it would also sink into the sea.

After all, no one wants to get in trouble.

Li Daxianggong and Chen Gonggong have too much energy, even Luo Dadudu, the governor of Jinyiwei, saw the situation, and he had to think about whether he could report it.

Chen Zeng, the supervisor of Shandong mines, bribed Li Sancai, the minister of Donglin, hundreds of thousands of taels, and the weight of this piece of paper scared Tian Ergeng.

You must know that Li Sancai and Chen Zeng are not related at all, and even enemies of life and death are.

A few years ago, Li Sancai scolded the mine supervisor and asked His Majesty the Emperor to stop the mine supervisor.

How did this dump the money from the mine supervisor Chen Zeng?

Tian Ergeng couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't understand it.

He is an outlier in the brocade guard, a second-generation official, and a handsome boy, but he is not stupid. He knew that what he said was not something that he could investigate, but that he had to report. But when it was reported, there was definitely no follow-up.

Li Sancai fell and was demoted to a commoner by His Majesty, but Chen Zeng did not fall. This Gonggong Chen has a deep foundation in Da Nei, who dares to check him?

Tian Ergeng thought about it repeatedly, and while handing over the paper, he quietly revealed the matter to Li Yongzhen.

Because of the incident of Li downfall, Wei Liangchen introduced Li Yongzhen to Tian Ergeng, and the relationship between the two sides was very good.

After Li Yongzhen knew about this, he was also surprised, thinking that Wei Liangchen was going south to pass through Shandong, so he went to Zuo'anmen, and after that, the news was sent by the fast horse to the hands of Wei Gonggong, who was watching the scenery on the canal.

When Gonggong Wei saw that there was still such a thing, he was happy and ordered Zheng Duo to investigate the matter. It's not troublesome, although the complainant is not Cheng Shouxun, but Shun Teng can always know who is the real mastermind behind the scenes.

That night, a gang of fierce men rushed to Cheng Shouxun's house, and put a red soldering iron under Cheng Shouxun's buttocks, no need to put a rope, Rao is a butcher Cheng Sheren was also frightened, and told him what he knew like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.

After figuring out what happened, Grandpa Wei had a treat.

Chen Zenglai, everyone gives face to each other, and the things that money can solve can't tear their faces, and they use knives and guns.

If you don't come, then don't blame Grandpa Wei for not thinking about his colleagues.

At the designated place, Father-in-law Wei finally met the world-famous Shandong boss Father-in-law Chen.

The two sides met in the band's playing and singing.

The atmosphere is still very intimate.

Maybe this is Father-in-law Wei's wishful thinking, Father-in-law Chen definitely doesn't feel kind, and the sound of blowing in his ears makes his old man particularly annoyed.

Especially when it was discovered that the so-called Admiral Maritime Eunuch was just a little cub with no hair, it was even more conceivable that Gonggong Chen was in a bad mood.

He has served the emperor for more than 30 years, but it is the first time he has been played by a little cub like this.

"Little bastard, Hugh is spewing blood, when did our family bribe Li Sancai!" Chen Zeng's face was pale, and the noisy sound of musical instruments around him made his old man completely lose his demeanor.

"Why should Chen Gong be angry?" Gonggong Wei raised his hand, and the sound of the instrument stopped.

"Chen Gongneng came here to show his heart, so let's open the skylight and say something." Father-in-law Wei smiled very heartily, but in the eyes of Father-in-law Chen, he was extremely disgusted, and the more he looked at it, the more he looked like a villain.

"Sit, sit, sit down and talk. Chen Gong is old, and his legs and feet are afraid that they are not good, how can he stand and say. Father-in-law Wei enthusiastically motioned to his subordinates to move a stool to Father-in-law Chen.

The stool had been brought from the ship, a long board, just wide enough to fit a butt.

And his father-in-law Wei sat on a Taishi chair made of high-quality mahogany, with a tiger skin on it.

I don't know if his father-in-law Wei is suffering from prickly heat when he sits on this hot day.

There is no way, meet and negotiate with the Shandong boss, and Gonggong Wei is forced to be qualified.

People are small and young, and they can't convince people with their own bearing, so they can only rely on external hardware decoration.

How does Chen Zeng know how to sit, and how is he willing to sit?

You little cub sit on the Taishi chair, tell our family to sit on the bench!

This is really going to sit, what difference does it make to look like a prisoner on trial?

The anger is really about to burst into the lungs, but fortunately, after decades of life in the sea, I have practiced my heart and qi, and I just can't hold back.

But the entourage behind him couldn't help it, they were used to following Gonggong Chen to be powerful in Shandong, and they were the only ones who bullied people, and no one bullied them.

Seeing that his father-in-law was so ignored and despised by a little cub, he immediately clamored and scolded.

Gonggong Wei raised his eyebrows and shook his head: "Gonggong Chen seems to be not strict with his majesty." ”

"Humph!"

Chen Zeng glanced angrily, waved his hand slightly, and all the entourages immediately fell silent when they saw it.

"Little bastard, don't pretend to be a ghost with our family, let's talk about it, what is the purpose of calling our family!" After Chen Gonggong finished speaking, he raised his foot and kicked Chang Deng to the ground.

Gonggong Wei was not annoyed, he smiled, and then said: "Chen Gong is a senior, our family is a junior, and he is also a backward person, it is not good to use a knife and a stick with his predecessors, and he passed on the joke of calling the official, and the foreign court scolded us for internal strife, embarrassing the ancestors in the palace, and embarrassing the emperor... So, our family just wants to talk to Chen Gong, this matter, our family doesn't want Chen Gong much, 500,000 taels, our family will treat this incident as if it didn't happen, pat your ass and leave, how about it? … This money is not much, how about it as a meeting gift from Chen Gong to the younger generation? ”

Grandpa Wei smiled, but his arrogance was really arrogant.

"You little bunny! Our family has been a lifelong errand for the emperor, who in the palace and outside the palace doesn't know our family, even those in the celebrant and the supervisor have also given face to our family, you little bastard wants to ride on our family's head! ”

Chen Zeng was also furious, but before he came, he thought that the other party might be the person of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and he really knew that he gave Li Sancai silver, so he spent money to buy peace. After all, he is not confused, the emperor demoted Li Sancai to a commoner, and it can be seen that the emperor already hates Li Sancai. If you want the emperor to know that he Chen Zeng also sent hundreds of thousands of taels to Li Sancai, he can have the good of him Chen Zeng.

But this little bastard will ask for 500,000 taels when he opens his mouth, he really dares to ask for it, he really can't do it when his father-in-law Chen is a clay man!

Chen Zeng was so angry that he trembled, and he didn't have a beard, or he would have curled.

Now that I think about it, I also hate, I knew that Li Sancai was finished so quickly, and I wouldn't give him the silver if I said anything. Now it's okay, the silver is cheated away, and he buried a pit of for himself, and called a little rabbit cub to rip off the bamboo pole.

"Gong Chen, when do you think this silver will arrive?" Father-in-law Wei looked at Father-in-law Chen eagerly.

"Little bastard, you have eaten leopard gall, you dare to ask our family for money like this, why are you!" Chen Gonggong was furious, the negotiations had broken down, and it was impossible for him to give so much.

Seeing this, Father-in-law Wei didn't say much, but said: "Father-in-law Chen, our family speaks with strength." After speaking, he waved his hand, "Come on, give Gonggong Chen a sound." ”
