On the second day, the news in Yangzhou City was full of news, and the people who did not dare to offend Zhao Xianqiu on weekdays were respectful and respectful, and when they learned of Zhao Xianqiu's death, they had the taste of celebrating each other.

Of course, not everyone is happy, and some officials and businessmen who were closer to Zhao Xianqiu before have become ants on a hot pot.

The officials were well-informed, and when they heard the people present last night talk about the whole process, they were all terrified.

What they were afraid of was not just Yang Huairen, but the ledgers in Yang Huairen's hands.

Rich people like Huang Million and Bai Yinhai first came to visit Yang Huairen, and they didn't know where they got the news, in addition to the name of condolences to the forbidden army, they added a reason to visit Princess Anguo.

Of course, they couldn't see the real Princess Anguo, but there were definitely a lot of gifts, more than when Yang Huairen first came to Yangzhou.

Yang Huairen also accepted all the orders, and didn't talk nonsense with them, just said that I am also a trader, I understand the things here, as long as you don't do too much, I won't pursue it.

After dealing with these rich people, Yang Huairen finally only asked people to send a sentence to Huang Million and Bai Yinhai, and the money for fighting the rich was confiscated, and it was not an example.

Huang Million and Bai Yinhai naturally didn't dare to say anything, and thanked Dade for saying some words of gratitude.

Yang Huairen recorded the list of gifts he received when he came to Jiangnan, and the gifts he received were also untouched and sent to take care of them.

Brother Hei Niu and several of them went to raid the house separately, and Zhao Xianqiu confiscated all the houses inside and outside Yangzhou City, including his name or secret property, including Hongyun Buzhuang, and did not let any of them go.

In the end, the amount calculated was a bit amazing, and the money that could be spent alone was 15,000 taels of gold, more than 400,000 taels of silver, and more than 100,000 catties of copper.

The rest of the real estate, real estate, and other jewelry, jade, antiques, etc., together are worth more than 1.2 million yuan.

There are as many as 100 singers and musicians in Zhao Xianqiu's west mansion, and Yang Huairen could have dismissed them directly, but then he thought about it, most of these people are from Qinglou, and many of them don't have any other survival skills at all, except for Israel to entertain people.

If they are simply driven away, they can only return to the Qinglou to make a living, which Yang Huairen does not want to see.

But Yang Huairen couldn't support them, so he could only give each of them a sum of money as severance pay, and told them that the money was used as a way to go back to their hometown and the capital to do a small business, so that they could make a living from now on, but don't practice themselves.

As for what they will do in the future, Yang Huairen can't control so much, everyone has their own choices in life.

Zhao Xianqiu's property was seized, Yang Huairen was not particularly surprised to see that statistic, Zhao Xianqiu has been operating in Jiangnan for nearly 20 years, and it is not unusual for him to have a family property of more than one million yuan.

Yang Huairen decided to take out one percent of this money as a reward for rewarding the forbidden army, and the rest was put into the accounts and reported to the imperial court, and the officials and the imperial court decided what to do with the money, whether it was into the treasury of the Caoyun Yamen or transported to the capital, that was something that Yang Huairen should worry about.

Yang Huairen also personally gave Zhao Xu a recital, and made Zhao Xianqiu's matter clear, and of course also reported some other things, such as the suppression of bandits, and the gift list of various gifts he received after coming to Jiangnan.

Only the clearer the matter, the more Yang Huairen does not have to worry about the bigwigs in the court arranging him in front of Zhao Xu, although Zhao Xu is mediocre, he is not faint now, and he can distinguish the benefits and disadvantages.

Moreover, Zhao Xianqiu's family property confiscated this time is a lot, and giving it to the imperial court can just solve the urgent needs of the official family, and no one will talk about it.

The details of that gift list are even more Yang Huairen's attitude to Zhao Xu, my brother is not short of money, and when people come to give gifts, they can't thin people's face, after all, Qincha is not omnipotent, if you want to do things in Jiangnan, you can't do it without personal connections.

However, Yang Huairen felt that compared with Zhao Xianqiu's family property, it didn't seem to be an explanation, and many of the things in it were given to Princess Anguo, whether it was Zhao Xu or the imperial court, he wouldn't think there was anything wrong with it.

The Song people loved face, and the emperors and courtiers of the Song Dynasty loved face even more, and they were not greedy enough to think about a gift from a Khitan princess.

So Yang Huairen felt that the gesture had to be done, but the money must still be his, and this would definitely not be able to run.

According to the practice of the army going out to fight, the reward ratio of 10% is actually very low, and under normal circumstances, it is normal to take out 30% or even 50% of the war profits and distribute them to the soldiers.

It's just that because there are too many confiscated Zhao Xianqiu's property, Yicheng is already a very huge amount, so Yang Huairen is not worried that the soldiers are dissatisfied with such a reward.

In fact, the soldiers of the forbidden army followed Yang Huairen to the south of the Yangtze River this time, because the bandits had military merits, because they had a lot of rewards for overthrowing Zhao Xianqiu, and they were promoted and got money, and everyone was very happy.

Guan Qiuli actually didn't have any sadness about Zhao Xianqiu's death, but remembered that the two of them still had some fate when they were in the palace, and couldn't help but sigh a little.

The feelings between the fathers-in-law, Yang Huairen can't understand, Guan Qiuli really wants to leave Yangzhou immediately and return to the third lady, only by looking at Yang Xiaozu, he can feel happy and responsible.

Maybe this is the meaning of his life or his spiritual pillar, Yang Huairen let him take Suzhou first, and also arranged for the forbidden army of Long Wuwei and Hu Benwei to be ready to be pulled out at any time, but he himself still stayed in Caoyun Yamen.

The normal operation of Caoyun was not affected in any way after Zhao Xianqiu's death, and even when Yang Huairen went to walk around the dock, he found that the people on the dock were more busy.

It turns out that the workers on the dock are also their own factions, of course, these gangs are not the same thing as the underworld forces, or a group of coolies carrying bags on the dock unite to form a grain gang or a gang in order to protect their own interests.

In the past, in order to live, these gangs were bound to regularly honor the people of the Caoyun Yamen, this kind of atmosphere Yang Huairen will not interfere arbitrarily, all walks of life have their own circles and ways of survival, existence is a reasonable truth, Yang Huairen still understands.

However, after Zhao Xianqiu died, Xiaoshengzi's father-in-law, who temporarily acted as a transfer envoy, relaxed some rules for the poor coolies on the dock, so the grain gang was naturally happy.

In fact, the benefits of the people in the Caoyun Yamen have not decreased, because it was Zhao Xianqiu who took the lion's share before, and Xiaoshengzi only reduced Zhao Xianqiu's share by a large part, in fact, the public in the Caoyun Yamen got more benefits than before.
