Chapter 529: Greedy Heart

Due to Yang Feng's timely arrival, a catastrophe was eliminated.

To be honest, there were still many people present who were unconvinced, but in the face of cold bayonets and sergeants who were eyeing them, no matter how unconvinced they were, they could only leave obediently. The lesson of the past is in front of us, and naturally no one dares to jump out to find a draw.

It was only two quarters of an hour, and the thousands of people in front of the governor's yamen finally dispersed, and it was only at this time that Xia Dayan came to Yang Feng under the support of a group of staff.

I saw Xia Dayan bowing down to Yang Feng with shame on his face: "How can the lower official be deed, there is a Hou Ye personally to help, the lower official is really ashamed!" ”

Yang Feng dismounted and helped Xia Dayan up, and said with a smile: "Lord Xia is polite, my lord would rather die than retreat into the yamen to avoid trouble, and it is worth Ben Hou to come over in person." Let's go, let's talk about anything in the yamen. ”

The two of them soon entered the governor's yamen together, came to the signing room and sat down.

As soon as he sat down, Xia Dayan sighed lightly: "Master Hou, who is the ghost behind this strike, needless to say, we all know it in our hearts." Since the last time he fell out with them, Xia Guan had a premonition that a strike would happen sooner or later, but Xia Guan originally thought that they would only use the strike to force the court to lift the sea ban, and they never thought that they would even want Xia Guan's life. ”

Yang Feng snorted lightly: "Lord Xia, your life is very valuable, what is more likely to cause a sensation in the imperial court than the death of the governor of a province because of the opening of the sea ban, if you really die for this, this marquis can guarantee that the folds in the court that ask for the re-ban on the sea will definitely fill His Majesty's desk."

In this way, in order to appease the hearts of the important ministers in the court, the emperor may have to recall the marquis to the capital. Look at it, it can not only force the imperial court to ban the sea again, but also take away the heart of Ben Hou, it can be described as killing two birds with one stone, such a good thing will be done by Ben Hou! ”

"These thieves!" Xia Dayan's chest rose and fell sharply, obviously even if he had been in officialdom for most of his life, he was very angry.

After getting angry, he smiled bitterly and said, "Master Hou, this boycott is a conspiracy of those people to force us to bow our heads. It's just that although we know, we can't do anything about those people, and we can't use knives to force those people to reopen for business, right? And the people outside can't afford to wait, if the market does not resume business within three days, Xiamen will be in chaos! Moreover, the lower officials think that since those people have been thinking about it for so long, they will definitely not only do it against Xiamen, and I am afraid that now there will be places in Fujian that will follow the strike, so we must ......."

"My lord, the villain has something urgent to report!"

Before Xia Dayan could finish speaking, a servant shouted outside.

"Come in!" Xia Dayan shouted, and then glanced at Yang Feng, and both of them had a bad feeling in their hearts.

Soon, a servant strode in, saluted Yang Feng and Xia Dayan and said loudly: "Lord Qiqi, Lord Governor, received a report from Quanzhou Mansion Flying Pigeon, most of the merchants in Quanzhou suddenly went on strike today, and now the entire Quanzhou Mansion is already panicked, and hundreds of people have gathered in the Mansion to ask the court to call the shots, and the Governor of Quanzhou, Lord Huang Tingyan, has asked the Lord to deal with it?" ”

Xia Dayan took a deep breath, "As expected, since Quanzhou has also started a strike, presumably Ningde, Fuzhou, Putian and other places will not be spared, this time we are in big trouble, if we can't let the market start again within four or five days, the whole Fujian will inevitably fall into chaos, and at that time it will be difficult for the officials to escape death." ”

Yang Feng knew that Xia Dayan's words were by no means an exaggeration.

The reason why Xia Dayan said that the time was four or five days was because the Ming Dynasty was still in an agricultural society, and most of the people were still in a self-sufficient small-scale peasant economy, and their dependence on the outside world was not too strong.

If it is replaced by modern society, I am afraid that the consequences will be even more serious, just imagine, if all the supermarkets, convenience stores, and even all stores in a certain city in China in the 21st century were closed at the same time in one day, let alone seven or eight days, I am afraid that there would be riots in the city within one day.

It is precisely because the consequences of the strike are so serious, so this is also one of the main reasons why the big businessmen and wealthy businessmen in various places have been able to repeatedly gain the upper hand in the competition with the imperial court since the end of the Ming Dynasty.

"Hmph...... A group of bold guys want to take the exam to force the court to bow their heads, so bold. ”

Yang Feng snorted coldly, the Ming Dynasty has developed to this day, and the wealthy merchants and gentry from all over the country have formed a huge interest group, and they firmly control the local economy and influence the policies of the imperial court.

In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, they even tried to turn the emperor into their puppet through the officials they had cultivated, trying to play with the entire Ming Dynasty between applause, but unfortunately in another time and space, these people got away with it, and a group of Tunguska people with pig tails stayed in the Central Plains.

And these barbarians who started by fighting wild boars will not get used to their stinky problems, after experiencing the blood type massacre of Yangzhou for ten days and the three massacres in Jiading, these wealthy businessmen who used to play with the Ming Dynasty between applause have become well-behaved and abnormal, and honestly kept the pig's tail as a slave. Only then did they regret it, it was only too late.

"Lord Xia!"

"The lower official is here!"

Yang Feng said slowly: "The reason why the people are panicking now is just because the market is closed, and the people can't buy the living materials they need. ”

Xia Dayan hesitated: "Master Hou, although it is such a reason, but we are not immortals, how can we get so many things, you must know that the things that the people need can be described as strange and everything." From firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, needles, threads, brains, pots and pans, hoes, farm tools, cloths, etc., how can we get them all?"

"What's impossible!" The corners of Yang Feng's mouth showed a sneer: "Look at it, Ben Hou is going to let these black-hearted guys steal chickens and rice today." Lord Xia, you have to work hard for a few days, Ben Hou has to go out, and he will come back in two to three days, and when Ben Hou returns, it will be the time for those guys who are hiding behind the scenes to give their heads! ”
