Chapter 511: Consummation

Chapter 511: Consummation

The opening was presided over by Zhang Yue, the military department of the arsenal and the governor of the Xuanfu!

If it is said that the Jinyi Wei Xuanfu Guard has been completely cleaned and makes people shudder, then this news from the General Military Mansion has undoubtedly reassured all businessmen. Because along with this news came another message, that is, if there was a bribery case before, he would not be held accountable in the past. Although the money sent out was wasted, many people were heartbroken, but compared to falling into the hands of the new batch of Jinyiwei and the big head of the East Factory to be scraped off a layer of skin, this result is bearable.

At this time, there were dozens of people on both sides of the eight-character wall in front of the General Soldier's Mansion. These stewards from merchants and even the proprietors didn't care about the ban of the imperial court when they were at home, and they still wore silk and satin, but at this time they were dressed much more low-key, and all the mink hats and fur were taken off to warm their ears, and many people even stood barehead in the wind and looked up carefully at the detailed regulations. The imperial court is open every year, but the number is more or less, the time is long and short, and no one is willing to wait for ten years and eight years to pay the grain, so the temptation of the words "no salt" is too great for them.

"Sixty-six thousand five hundred citations of salt, even if it is a small introduction, this number is almost equivalent to the entire production of two Huai salt farms in two months, and there is more than one place in Xuanfu in this world, and Huai salt can really have so much surplus in addition to the accumulation? Except for Huai salt, I don't want salt from other places! ”

"And this time it's not a scattered infusion, but a note of five hundred, although the reserve price is three buckets and five liters, but it is said that it is a piece of the bottom book into it, the one with the highest price wins, this trick is really ruthless! If everyone calculates the lowest price, what will he do then! ”

"Don't rejoice too soon! We all know how much the salt works of the imperial court produce every year, and since the will says that this time we can be supported in no order, that is, we are the first in order, but there will be a priority among our people. If you pay less, when the time comes, wait for two or three years, and the warehouse money will not pay for salt, which is equivalent to selling grain to the government, are you willing to sell it like this? The word is the head, you really believe that everyone can work together! ”

"So what to do...... It's not the first time we've opened it, there was so much backlog of banknotes in the previous warehouse, and as a result, the court could only buy it back, and it was difficult to even protect the capital, if the price was raised too high this time......"

The people of each family were discussing in private, and at this moment, Zhang Yue, who was in the study of the General Military Mansion, was carefully calculating according to the various information he had gathered. Since the previous stove households continued to supply industrial rice, the additional salt produced each month was purchased by the salt farm at the price of rice grain, and the output of the salt farm was greatly increased. And the warehouse banknotes that have been guarded for more than five years have been repurchased by the imperial court, and there are more businessmen who came this time than before. It's just that the reputation of the Ming Dynasty is really not good among the merchants, which is why he persuaded Lu Feng not to pursue the merchants anymore, after all, the military rations this time are the most important, and he must pay more attention to the operation.

"In the third year of Hongwu, Datong warehouse entered one stone of rice, and Taiyuan warehouse entered one stone and three buckets of rice, giving Huaiyan a small lead. In the fifteenth year of Yongle, Jingwei opened the middle, and Jingcang entered the rice and a stone, and gave Huaiyan a small introduction. In the seventeenth year of Yongle, the resumption of the Tianxia Wei Institute was opened, and the Xuanfu warehouse was seven buckets and five liters, giving Huai salt a small introduction, and the businessman was reluctant to open the ...... with salt.

"Alright, that's all for now!"

Zhang Yue waved his hand to stop the scribe, and continued to write and draw on the paper. Compared with the salt matter in the book, he now understands the disadvantages better. There is no plan in the opening of the Tianxia Health Institute, and the lack of food was afraid before, but now that the ban is opened, it is often only concerned with hoarding food or filling private pockets, regardless of the production of the salt farm; And the emperor fought hard, and war zones such as Datong Xuanfu were opened frequently, so that the salt that could only be produced after a few decades was sold. This time it was the same, even if he could use this opening to raise enough food, but it was based on sacrificing the interests of the previous merchants who were guarding the branch, and it was similar to drinking water to quench his thirst.

After this northern expedition, Zhu Di can't be allowed to go on like this again! Even if you want to fight, you can't easily reach an army of 300,000, and how much food and salary will be consumed. No wonder people talk about the Han Dynasty is the rule of Wenjing, and when they talk about the Ming Dynasty, it is the rule of Renxuan, and the people are unwilling to fight after all. But if you don't fight all year round, the result is that the defense is corrupted and the military system is corrupted......

"My lord, Kaiping is urgent!"

With this voice, Xiang Long rushed into the room briskly from the outside, and shouted after calming down: "The Imperial Procuratorate tried Shi Yuqian's eight hundred miles to expedite Mingfa worship, saying that most of Kaiping's grain reserves have been rotten and unusable!" ”

Due to the complicated affairs before, Zhang Yue almost forgot that there was also a Yu Qian who was traveling with him at the beginning. When he learned of this, he was a little surprised at first, but thinking that he was also taking care of the grain storage here, Yu Qian had originally gone to Kaiping to inspect the grain storage, and it was not surprising to reveal the matter. It's just that this timing is quite accurate, and his side will start in about these two days, Yu Qian actually happened to seize this pass, and there was no news in advance, and he never looked forward or backward.

"My lord, Gonggong Lu is here to borrow soldiers from the Beijing camp!" Before Zhang Yue could recover from the shock brought by this news, Liu Bao also hurriedly entered the house, raised his hand and said with an excited face, "Gonggong Lu has already borrowed five hundred people from the General Military Mansion from Master Meng Xiaohou, saying that he was afraid that it would not be enough, so he came to borrow Lord Zhou and them!" ”

Zhang Yue didn't want to think about it, so he replied: "Lend it to him, and give him as much as he wants...... Wait, after dispatching people, you and Xiang Long hurry up and go to the eunuch's mansion first, that guy from the crown may jump over the wall in a hurry, don't let him make a big trouble! What we want now is stability, not trouble, and this time the matter must be calmed down as quickly as possible! ”

The garrison of Xuanfu City is in good order on weekdays, and it is not often seen that the streets are full of sergeants, so when the horsemen, coachmen, and even merchants and vendors who work in the city see the situation of a group of sergeants trotting past the avenue, they all feel incredible, and many people have the courage to follow the past to see the excitement. Soon, the people who followed the group discovered the destination, but no matter how much they thought about it, they couldn't figure out the doorway. Or those who had watched the robbery of Jinyi Wei Xuanfu Wei in Flower Alley saw some doorways, and there were countless discussions for a while.

That Gonggong Lu has just cleaned the brocade guard, and now he has to deal with the eunuch guarding the town?

Wang Guan didn't sleep all night, after returning from Zhang Yue yesterday, he spent the second half of the night in full swing to transfer his family belongings, planning to go out of the city directly after destroying the evidence this morning. As long as he hurried up, leaving the Great Wall was the territory of the Tartars, where he had already prepared a place to live. However, he never expected that Lu Feng, following yesterday's thunderous thunder, would pounce directly on him today, completely with a fearless appearance. At this moment, he drove out the messenger, and he didn't care what the mess was going to happen in the house, and sat down in a chair in despair.

"Father-in-law, hurry up and run through the secret passage, don't you think we dug that path just to prevent this day? If you stay in the green mountains, you are not afraid of no firewood, maybe there will be a way to delay it. ”

"Run? At this time, the city must already be under martial law, and when the time comes, the city will be full of ropes, and it will definitely not be able to escape! The crown laughed nervously for a while, and then his heart moved, and he had a crazy idea, so he shouted, "Quick, get the fire oil that I prepared before, and dry firewood, move quickly!" ”

Several attendants looked at each other for a while, although they felt that something was really wrong with what this master wanted at this juncture, but thinking that the army outside was besieging him, even if the crown escaped for a while, he might not be able to escape for a lifetime, so he had to do it. When the things arrived, they saw that the crown took a jar of fire oil and poured it all over him, and then poured it all around in the tall and spacious main house, with a hideous look on his face, and they finally understood that this master was determined to make a big deal out of it.

The two relatives near the door quietly took two steps back, and then snatched the door and slipped away. And the two people standing inside, even though they were henchmen who went out with the crown to see Zhang Yue last night, involuntarily took a few steps back at this time. What this Jinyiwei and Dongchang want to catch is just a crown, and others will never care about their little minions, in this case, why should they accompany them to go crazy and find death? The crown can't run away even if he leaves the house, but they are different!

Seeing that the first two ran away, the other two who were relying on him as henchmen also suddenly turned around and fled as if they were dead, and the crown, which was drenched in fire oil, was suddenly angry. The pungent smell crept into his nose and caused him to sneeze several times.

Damn, his valuables have already been transferred, as long as the evidence here is burned along with himself, it will be up to Lu Feng to explain when the time comes! However, these damn subordinates are fed with money by him on weekdays, and they all run away at a critical moment? They still don't understand the truth of kindness...... If it doesn't work, you have to leave two for him to fill the scene! He has frozen to death by pouring such a body of fire oil on a cold day, do you want him to personally hit the flint and fire sickle?

Before he could let out the next big sneeze, a figure suddenly shook in front of the door, but someone rushed in. He was full of depression and was about to open his mouth to scold, but the next moment he suddenly recognized the two people, and the scolding on his lips was blocked in his teeth, and the last glimmer of hope was born in his already desperate heart.

"Two strong men, but Master Zhang...... Sneezing ...... Lord Zhang asked you to help...... Sneezing ......"

"It's true that our family asked us to come, but fortunately, we still caught up." Xiang Long gently stroked his left arm, which was still faintly painful after being hit by the arrow before, and squinted his eyes with a smile, but he and Liu Bao stepped forward and held the crown one to the left and one right, "My lord said, let our brothers take a look, don't let things get out of hand." This thing is not yet certain, why do you want to set yourself on fire? You have to be a single person, one person does things and one person is responsible for it, what's the matter if you burn this town guarding the eunuch's mansion and implicate others? ”

"You...... You ......" the crown was shivering with cold, and now he was hit again, and he was a little unfavorable to speak," he clearly promised...... Could it be that he is planning to ask for all of our family's wealth and our family's lives......"

"Phew, who cares about your stinky money!" Liu Bao is already a charcoal character, where can he bear it at this time, and immediately scolded, "We almost lost our lives in Xinghe, can your stinky money buy your life back?" If the young master didn't allow it, Lao Tzu would give you a white knife to go in, and a red knife to come out! If you want to say that there are still a few bloody ones in your subordinates, they have already laid out their knives and guns at the second gate and are ready to do it. If we hadn't reported our adults' names, we wouldn't have been able to get in. You can rest now! ”

As Liu Bao spoke, he slammed a punch on the crown's lower abdomen, and seeing that the man's head was tilted and he fainted, he raised his head: "Brother Long, this guy should know it now, if he is sent to Jingshi, I am afraid that he will bite people indiscriminately......"

Xiang Long put the crown on the chair and sat down, and said with a smile: "Gonggong Lu still counts on his family wealth, how can he keep a living person to the capital division?" The adults have already planned it, and Gonggong Lu will report to the previous office, and as long as the emperor makes a little effort, he will definitely order the canonical punishment directly in the Xuanfu. His death shocked Xiaoxiao, and this scene should climax. At that time, it will be tossed by others, and we will just concentrate on opening it. ”

In the middle of the day, the last bit of stubborn resistance of those family members guarding the eunuch's mansion was completely over. Lu Feng swaggered back here again, thinking of the last time the crown held a banquet, he was embarrassed by Hai Shou, and then listened to the crying and begging for mercy coming from all around at this time, looking at the servants who were kneeling on the ground and trembling, he only felt raised his eyebrows. When he came to the main house along the bluestone avenue, he smelled a pungent smell, frowned, and then was shocked.

"What a fire oil! Oops, could it be that those two are not the best? ”

An arrow stepped forward and lifted the curtain of the door, and he saw the crown sitting softly on the Taishi chair in the middle, with Xiang Long and Liu Bao standing on either side, and then he caught a glimpse of a room full of dry wood and two boxes poured with fire oil. Seeing the two of them clasping their fists and saluting, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It seems that our family didn't let the wrong person in, fortunately you two caught up, if you really let the crown burn the house, this trip really can't be completed." When you go back, please tell Lord Xiao Zhang that our family owes him a big favor this time, and we will not interfere in the affairs of the opening, let him do what he does! ”

Xiang Long Liu Bao waited for this sentence, and after agreeing, he didn't look at the unlucky ghost who hadn't woken up yet, and after saluting, he strode out of the house. As soon as they left on the front foot, Lu Feng ordered the two relatives to step forward and set up the crown, looked up and down, and suddenly the splitting hand was a big ear scraper. He also didn't care about the pain of his hand, he hit his forehand and backhand several times, and when he saw that the person woke up and turned around, he squinted his eyes and showed a sad smile.

"Princess, welcome to Jinyiwei...... By the way, today's Xuanfu Jinyiwei is not the Jinyiwei of that time, they will treat you well! ”
