Zhu Honghuan returned to the Forbidden City in Nanjing to continue to be his emperor, although he was a puppet emperor, but Wang Yu was not kind to him.

The current Ming Empire has made great strides into the capitalist era. The original Jiangnan gentry, represented by the Donglin Party, has now been transformed into capitalists from all walks of life, earning huge profits through commerce and industry in this emerging era, and they are even richer than before.

However, for example, the most profitable industries such as glass, railways, cement, and coal were firmly in the hands of Wang Yu, which made the gentry and the emerging bourgeoisie in Jiangnan very dissatisfied. Moreover, Wang Yu's reduction of agricultural tax and commercial tax also violated the interests of the gentry class, and was even accused of competing with the people for profit.

"What does it mean to compete with the people? Who is this people? Not yet themselves! Where do ordinary people have the money and connections to run a business? If you let go of these industries and let them toss, it won't be them who make money in the end? In the end, it is the common people who suffer! Wang Yu said angrily.

Wang Yu knew very well how bad the working conditions of the workers in the factories of the Jiangnan capitalists were.

In their black-hearted factories, the workers have to work 14 to 16 hours a day to receive a little hard-earned money that can barely support their families, and the workers can only receive a salary of four to six cents after a hard day's work, and survive a month of exhaustion and earn more than a silver dollar, while those capitalists can spend more than 100 silver dollars a day, or even spend a lot of money, and live a life of spending all day and drinking, just like that, they are still shouting that the taxes are too high.

When Wang Yu built Shanghai, these insatiable profiteers saw business opportunities, and they put all their money into real estate investment, and the current housing prices in Shanghai have risen again and again, and have risen to the price of more than 500 silver dollars per square meter, according to the comparison of the renminbi and silver dollars in later generations, which is equivalent to 150,000 yuan per square meter, even if it is an ordinary worker working in Wang Yu's state-owned enterprises, it is only five silver dollars a month, and he has not eaten or drunk for more than eight years, which is only enough to buy a square meter house.

Housing prices in Shanghai continue to rise, and as a real estate tycoon, He Wenrui can be said to have made a lot of money in recent years.

He Wenrui is the son of He Tengjiao, and was once named Dingxing Hou by Emperor Yongli. He Wenrui, who thinks he is the son of a national hero, plays his father's brand and makes a lot of money in Shanghai.

In He Wenrui's real estate company, the shareholders also include Gu Xiancheng's grandson, Wang Wenyan's grandson and others, all of whom are remnants of the Donglin Party.

Gu Xiancheng, what kind of goods Wang Wenyan is, Wang Yu knows very well.

As for He Wenrui's proud father He Tengjiao, Wang Yu also understands what kind of character this so-called national hero He Tengjiao is! He is the same as Shi Kefa, although the national integrity is strong enough, but these two people are the pit goods of two pit teammates!

Shi Kefa borrowed Pingkou and provided materials and silver to the Qing army, wanting to borrow the hands of the Qing army to eliminate Li Zicheng and other peasant armies, which is the same as the reason that Shu and Wei first destroyed Wu, and the political IQ is so low.

As for He Tengjiao, he is also a pit goods, the good situation of Hunan's resistance to the Qing Dynasty was defeated in his hands, although He Tengjiao incorporated the loyalty camp, but he still regarded Li Guo and others as Kou in his heart, and still held the idea of borrowing the capture of Pingkou in his heart, and adopted the means of winning over and dividing the loyalty camp, and finally buried the good situation of Hunan's resistance to the Qing Dynasty.

"A group of scholars, who keep saying righteous and awe-inspiring, are all for themselves! Some people are for money, some are for fame. Wang Yu said angrily.

It's time to give them a little bit of power, now the housing prices in Shanghai have skyrocketed, and the housing prices in Hangzhou, Nanjing, Suzhou and other places around the city have risen, and the descendants of the Donglin Party have not only made money by speculating in houses, but also used the bank opened by Wang Yu to take out loans because of the rise in housing prices, and then use the loans to invest in real estate.

"The common people can no longer afford to buy a house, and the most stringent regulation of real estate must be carried out, first of all, it is stipulated that in the regulated city, those who do not have a household registration in the place must have worked in the place for more than three years, or pay taxes for more than three years to be eligible to buy a house; In addition to the fact that the purchased house cannot be sold for less than two years, the bank must strictly restrict the loan and prohibit anyone from investing the loan money in real estate. Wang Yu unleashed a series of combinations.

As soon as the purchase and sale restriction order was introduced, the houses hoarded by the real estate developers of the Donglin Party were immediately backlogged in their hands, and it was difficult to sell.

Seeing that the house could not be sold, all their funds were thrown into it, and the money owed to the bank had to pay huge interest, and finally those Donglin real estate developers could not support it and began to sell at a reduced price.

Housing price reduction, of course is a good thing for the people, the people who can't afford to buy a house, as long as they are willing to work hard, through a few years of hard work, they can afford to buy a house, and for those Donglin Party real estate developers, it is a heavy blow, many people are accompanied by blood, after the house price falls, insolvency, the house was taken away by the bank for auction.

Many officials came to Wang Yu, and Qi Bansun advised: "His Royal Highness the King of the South must not compete with the people for profit!" ”

"Competing with the people? What is the profit? You can take a look at the bills of our bank during this time, there are a lot of bad debts, and my loss is not smaller than theirs! Wang Yu angrily rebuked the officials.

Wang Yu is telling the truth, his losses are not small, Nanyang Bank, Daming Bank are his industry, the bank has bad debts, it must be a heavy loss, but the resources he has at hand are not comparable to the Donglin Party, Wang Yu can afford to lose, and those Donglin Party people can't afford to lose.

"Since it's a lose-lose situation, why does His Highness still refuse to stop?" Qi Bansun asked puzzled.

"I have suffered heavy losses, and the Donglin Party has also suffered heavy losses, and it is the people who really benefit. Do you know why Lord Chongzhen couldn't control the situation back then? was fooled by the Donglin Party, why not compete with the people? Who are the so-called people? And not those Donglin Party themselves? They call themselves the people, but the common people in Shaanxi are not the people? The officials forced the people to rebel, the people couldn't survive, they could only rebel, and some people actually said: If you don't starve in An'an, you will be a praying mantis! ”

The one who said this was Hou Sui, the boss of the Donglin Party! It was Hou Fangyu's father.

The Donglin Party presented itself as a citizen in front of the emperor and prevented the emperor from collecting taxes from them, but imposed all the taxes on the peasants in the northwest, which eventually led to the fall of the Ming Dynasty.
