Chapter 807: Chasing to the ends of the earth
The county lord of Qingcheng still wants to excuse himself, at least to save his family and future generations...... Their generation is so bitter, poverty, hunger, and deprivation constitute the most terrifying childhood memories, even if they have been rich for decades, but they still linger.
But in fact, they are greedy for a lot of money, but they are not willing to waste a single penny.
Collecting money makes them happy, but spending money is the most painful thing...... So in their homes, there are secret rooms for saving money.
No, Liu Chun stood in front of the secret room.
With the opening of the heavy stone door, on the outermost, there was a huge box, and inside was the big pearl sent by Li Xian, as well as the best Qi Nan.
Obviously, a catastrophe is coming, and he breaks the deadlock by giving his granddaughter an engagement, but he still has to collect the gifts...... Liu Chun didn't know what to say.
It seems to be ironic, but it is reasonable, after all, it is still the same sentence - poor and afraid!
"Back to Taifu, we have found a total of 187,000 taels of gold, more than 1.7 million taels of silver, and all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry, please decide."
Liu Chun smiled dumbly, "The county lord of Daming, with more than thirty years of accumulation, how can there be only this!" Check it out and see how many there are! ”
"Yes!"
With Yoo Chun's order, everyone moved.
Soon, all kinds of news were sent, and in Yingtian alone, there were as many as five warehouses where the county lord of Qingcheng had hidden treasures!
Needless to say, how much gold and silver treasure there is.
She had a room full of boxes, about twenty of them.
These boxes contain all land deeds, as well as share covenants, and bonds and stock certificates...... These things can fit twenty boxes, and there is no one!
Liu Chun casually unfolded a box, and after a brief look at it, he couldn't help laughing.
It's really dead!
Over the years, with the implementation of Juntian, there has been a lot less land under the name of the county lord of Qingcheng, and she is in pain, so what should I do? She had many men under her, including family members, workers, and slaves...... The lord of Gyeongseong deposited the land in the names of these people...... Liu Chun couldn't help but laugh when he looked at these title deeds.
For the sake of dozens of acres of land, she worked hard and worked around the bush to hand it over to the people below, but she was not at ease, and she had to come to count it regularly to ensure that there was no loss...... It turns out that not only the men of the old Zhu family are greedy for money, but even women are the same.
It's just that the family business she has worked so hard to accumulate has fallen into Liu Chun's hands at the moment.
"Clean up carefully, what should be handed over to the people, be handed over to the people, and the rest will be confiscated." Liu Chun paused, and asked people to take out those pearls and Qi Nan.
It's better to go back to Li Xian, it's not easy for the child to do things with him, and he can't let him lose.
Overall, Yoo Chunha is a good uncle, really!
So what is Li Xian doing at this moment?
Raiding the house!
And it's addicted to it, and you can't extricate yourself...... I have to say that Yingtian's businessman is fat, and he is so fat. There are eight major money villages, there are salt merchants, Su merchants, and Hui merchants.
But without exception, the bosses behind them, or the largest shareholders, are all Shanxi businessmen.
The smallest of them is also valued at 8 million taels.
The eight combined, a total of more than 100 million!
What is the rich and rival the country!
It was an eye-opener, compared to these people, Li Xian felt that he was a complete poor person.
He was very unconvinced, his father was the first to go to sea to open up, and he worked hard to discover Dongfan Island, and after several years of operation, the Li family did not have much industry, at least the funds he could use were less than one million taels, and as a result, 500,000 yuan was hacked by Zhu Gaosui.
How can these businessmen be worth millions or tens of millions at every turn, will they all turn stones into gold?
"What's so strange about this!"
Zhu Gaosui said disdainfully: "Whether it's your father, or master, or even your father...... The money they earned from foreign development had to be spent on various aspects, such as compensating the dead and wounded, buying off indigenous leaders, expanding the fleet, cultivating talents, and maintaining shipping routes...... All in all, they worked hard and settled all the difficulties, and the businessmen were hitchhikers and earned all their own, no more than we all have money! ”
Li Xian took a breath, "I see? So, then why are they still not satisfied? ”
Zhu Gaosui rolled his eyes, and said in his heart, how do I know!
Judging from the current situation, the Ming Dynasty is the best among all dynasties and dynasties in history for merchants. The imperial court helped to open up overseas trade routes and help solve the problem of labor shortage. It also built roads, developed science and technology, and promoted basic education...... Following this path, businessmen are definitely the biggest beneficiaries.
However, they are still not satisfied, and always feel that they should have the privilege to influence the national policy like the scholars and doctors in the past. Especially in some ways, it is easier for them to make money, but also to make their wealth last forever......
"Sure enough, it's a lack of people's hearts, and it's natural that I copied them!"
Li Xian sighed heartily, and Zhu Gaosui kicked him.
"You bunny, are you still going to release water? I can tell you, the murderer of Master has not been caught, if the real murderer is allowed to escape, I will throw you into the Yangtze River to feed the fish! ”
Li Xian's face changed with fright, hurry up and investigate!
Raids, investigations, interrogations, rectifications...... Ying Tian became a pot of porridge.
At this moment, an old man in a green coat and a small hat is sitting on a sailboat, this ship has triangular sails, it is the latest fast boat, not only has a strong carrying capacity, but also fast enough.
"Han Gong, in half a month, you will be able to rush to the Wa Kingdom. Once there, you're safe, and no one can find you anymore. ”
The old man shook his head slightly, "Young Master Xu, this may not be true, with the power of the Ming Dynasty, even if you go to the Wa Kingdom, you can't guarantee safety...... can only be temporarily accommodated, and the old man still has to leave when he turns back. ”
The middle-aged man on the other side frowned, he didn't care where the old thing went, but the three words of Young Master Xu made him very uncomfortable.
"Gong Han, now that the matter is over, we have to make it clear, I will help you escape, as long as you leave the Ming Dynasty, we will not owe each other, even if the court catches you, you can't talk nonsense...... Sanyi Society pays attention to a righteous word, if you forget this, but don't even do it. ”
He took the trouble to warn the old man.
The corners of the old man's mouth on the other side turned up, and he didn't care at all. Facing this Xu Gongzi, who was younger than his son, he really didn't take it seriously.
"In the year of the old man's destiny, he fled overseas, in the final analysis, it was your Xu Gongzi who was not good at doing things and failed to kill Liu Chun, so far, just thinking about letting the old man take the blame, I'm afraid it can't be regarded as a righteous word!"
Xu Gongzi's face darkened.
"Han Gong, don't say anything, you leave now, if you delay any longer, I can't help it."
"Don't be busy!" Old man Han smiled and said: "Son, the old man went to the Wa Kingdom, I'm afraid he won't be able to escape the court's ears, you have to remind the old man at all times and help the old man avoid danger...... Also, don't think about getting rid of the old man, and everything will be fine. You have to be clear, there are so many people on the Sanyi Society! They have hands and eyes, and there is nothing they can't do. ”
Xu Gongzi snorted lightly, full of disdain.
"Okay, what are you scaring me for? You have the ability to kill Liu Chun! If you don't have that ability, don't brag about it. What hands and eyes are up to the sky, don't think that if there are people in the palace, you can influence Your Majesty. Tell you, Your Majesty listens to Empress Xu the most, and no one can do it except Empress Xu...... Your Majesty loves beauty a little bit, I know it, and you know it. At the end of the day, just like this assassination, none of us can compete head-on with Yoo Chun. You can only use these indiscriminate means. ”
Old man Han shook his head, he didn't agree with Xu Gongzi's opinion.
"There is no distinction between good and bad means, as long as it works...... Xu Gongzi, you mentioned the key, Liu Chun is really difficult to deal with, this person is a good learner, extremely smart, and good at self-preservation. It may have been a mistake from him. But it doesn't matter, we will find a way after all, especially this harem, maybe one day, it will be our master who has the final say. At that time, I am afraid that Liu Chun, as well as his students, will not have a good life. ”
Xu Gongzi's eyes lit up, and he said in his heart that Sanyi Society was going to plan again?
Is this going to attack Empress Xu?
If it does, it will be a good move...... But soon he came to his senses again, because the top priority was not to fight back, but to protect himself, and to eliminate all the evidence of the crime before Liu Chun found out.
"Han Gong, here is a letter from me, after you arrive in the Wa Kingdom, naturally someone will send you a fleet, there are not many ships, there are ten ships. Not only is it enough to save your life, but even if you want to continue to escape, it is enough. ”
Xu Gongzi stood up and arched his hand at Old Man Han, "There will be no time in the future!" ”
With that, he got out of the cabin, went ashore, and did not leave at once, but turned to another boat, and went upstream, like a tourist on a river.
He left, and the old Han Tou's sailboat also put away its anchor, pulled the sails, and headed towards the mouth of the Yangtze River like an arrow off the string.
……
At this time, Ping'an commanded the fleet, which had already been deployed, preparing to blockade the Yangtze River to prevent anyone from escaping.
"My lord, the brethren have reported that they have found a strange ship heading for the sea!"
"What?" Ping An said angrily: "Stop! ”
His subordinates were embarrassed: "The brothers intercepted, but the other party was too fast, and they were all good hands, and they overturned one of our ships and ran away!" ”
"Rubbish!"
Ping An shouted angrily: "Immediately light up twenty clippers and follow the old man in pursuit!" ”
On the one hand, Ping An arranged for someone to chase and kill, and on the other hand, he sent someone to send a letter to Liu Chun.
"Please rest assured, Taifu will be safe in the end, even if he is chased to the ends of the earth, heaven and hell, he must chase the prisoner back and give Taifu anger!"
Liu Chun received the letter and couldn't help but shake his head, Ping An is a notoriously dead-eyed, I really don't know where he will chase......
