Something big happened to 267

(Tomorrow is the new year, I wish all book friends next year's wishes come true, all the best, if you vote for me, the new year will be smoother, make a fortune!) Hey! ）

"Who are you? How dare you trespass on our bank...... Ay! ”

"Get out!"

When Li Tianba rushed into the 'Wande Qianzhuang' with a group of white dragon soldiers, the shopkeeper of the Qianzhuang was a foreign governor of the Wanjia family, and he wanted to stop the intruder when he saw it.

As soon as he said two sentences, he was directly pushed down by a white dragon sergeant who rushed to the front.

"Everybody squatting with their heads in their hands, quick."

With an arrogant attitude, Li Tianba instantly controlled the situation in Qianzhuang, and then took a group of soldiers and went straight to the backyard of Qianzhuang.

In the backyard of Qianzhuang, where Qianzhuang stores silver, there is now a private family of ten thousand families, and all of them are extraordinary.

"Rush in, and if you encounter resistance, you will be killed."

Li Tianba said coldly to his subordinates.

When the white dragon sergeant heard the words 'kill don't talk', his eyes were bloodthirsty and murderous, and then with a wave of Li Tianba's big hand, he rushed into the backyard of Qianzhuang.

The dozens of Wanjia family members in the backyard originally saw someone breaking in, and they wanted to perform their duties and protect the property of the bank.

However, as more and more white dragon soldiers poured in from behind, there were hundreds of them, all wearing armor, holding shields, swords, and black muzzles pointed at them.

That posture immediately frightened these civilian armed forces.

As Li Tianba glared and shouted, the house was so shocked that the house fell to the ground, and those guards of the ten thousand families obediently put down their weapons and surrendered with their heads in their hands.

Fear of death is human nature, in the face of such a heavily armed army, they resisted, and they simply hit the stone with an egg and sent them to death in vain.

They just took Wanjia's money, but they didn't plan to die for Wanjia.

In less than a stick of incense, Li Tianba led people to arrest the shopkeepers, men and guards of the two money houses of Wanjia 'Wande Qianzhuang' and 'Fengtai Qianzhuang'.

At the beginning, there were still a few guys from the Wanjia family who didn't have long eyes, mistakenly thinking that the White Dragon Army was still the same guards as before, and they came out to scold them with arrogance.

As a result, several soldiers of the White Dragon Army raised their knives and fell, their heads rolled to the ground, blood soared, and two headless corpses fell to the ground, and no one dared to stand up and speak so far.

"General, a large amount of cash was found in the backyards of the two money banks, nearly 40,000 taels, how to deal with it?" Zhao Teng, the logistics clerk of the Tiger Camp, trotted to Li Zixiao and reported.

Only Li Tianba, he is only interested in leading troops to fight, drinking and fighting, and he has never even looked at those silver or anything.

"Take them all away, I want to make Wanjia vomit blood this time, dare to pit Lao Tzu, I really think Lao Tzu is easy to speak.

Didn't he give me my banker ticket? Since he doesn't listen to the rules when you talk to him about them, don't blame me for breaking the rules. Lao Tzu is in charge of this matter, and Lao Tzu is not afraid to make things bigger. ”

"Quartz, go, the 'Yulon Money Village' at the home has also copied it for me, and asked those shopkeepers and guys to write down all the things that refuse to honor our bankers' tickets, and then sign and draw them.

When the time comes, it will be Lao Tzu's weapon to block the foul mouths of some people. ”

"Yes, monk, take someone with me."

Quartz greeted one of his apprentices, and then led a team of white dragon soldiers and went straight to Yu's 'Yulon Village' dozens of meters away.

"Someone dares to copy Wanjia's money bank, who is that person?"

"You're really stupid to read, you don't know that person, that's General Li who killed the Japanese before.

In addition to this lord, who has the courage to dare to touch the industry of thousands of families in Yangzhou!

However, this General Li is really a lawless lord, and he copied the two largest money houses under the Wan family, and it is estimated that the Wan family is going crazy. ”

"I don't know what Wan Jia did, he made this general so angry, he didn't hesitate to bring troops into the city, and led troops into the city without authorization, this is a big crime to kill the head!"

"Who said it wasn't, but I've heard people say before that it seems that the general cashed the banker's ticket to Wanjia's bank, but they didn't give it cash, saying that the banker's ticket was fake.

So, in a fit of rage, this General Li directly led his troops to copy Wanjia's money village, and I obeyed this General Li. ”

Watching the lively passer-by A and passer-by B talking.

Of course, these rumors were secretly propagated by Li Zixiao's intelligence department lurking in Yangzhou.

After all, this time he led troops into the city without authorization, which is indeed a big crime, and it is estimated that there will be a storm afterwards, although Li Zixiao is not afraid, he still wants to occupy the reason.

"Oh no, something big is wrong."

Among the lively passers-by, a middle-aged man in a gorgeous brocade robe also changed his face after seeing the White Dragon Army rushing into Wanjiaqian Village, and then turned around and left.

"General, 'Yulon Money' has been copied, and 13,000 taels of silver have been copied." Soon, Quartz returned with people.

"It's only 13,000 taels, this Yu family is really poor! It's not as good as 10,000 money banks. ”

Li Zixiao's words, if others hear them, they will probably be angry.

"Take all the silver with you, stone, Tianba, let's go to Yufu for a walk." Li Zixiao said with a sneer on his face.

"Well, I've been waiting for the general's words for a long time!" Quartz said excitedly.

Soon, a heavily armed soldier, with a neat pace, led by a handsome general on a tall horse, trotted all the way.

I came to a house in the southeast area of Yangzhou City, this house is very gorgeous just by looking at the appearance, with a tall wall made of blue bricks and green tiles.

The vermilion gate, the bronze ring that was once bright, and the two large stone lions placed in front of the mansion all show the power and wealth of the owner of this mansion.

On the plaque on this gate, "Yu Fu" is written in gold lacquer, two large gold characters.

Li Zixiao came to Yufu with nearly 700 soldiers from the Tiger Camp, and then the White Dragon soldiers scattered one after another and surrounded the mansion.

Li Zixiao walked slowly to the gate of this mansion, looked coldly at the 'Yu Mansion' plaque hanging above the gate, turned his head and asked the person behind him: "Tianba, are the soldiers ready?" ”

Behind him, who was also wearing a pair of iron armor and holding a pair of large bronze hammers, Tianba said in a muffled voice: "General, the brothers have surrounded this house, and I promise that they will not be able to fly out even a fly." ”

Li Zixiao shouted in a low voice: "Then what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and smash the door open for Lao Tzu!" ”

"Yes."

Li Tianba answered, and with a wave of his hand, there were immediately sixteen soldiers with big shoulders and round waists, carrying a very thick log, and walked to the gate.

With a captain standing next to him, the soldiers shouted the trumpet and began to bang on the door.

"One-two-three, hi! One, two, three, hard, hi! ”

"Boom...... Rumble...... Boom ......"

A loud sound, like the roar of a monster, spread throughout the street.

Lao Zhangtou is already in his fifties this year, and he was originally a tenant in the countryside, but he borrowed the light of a distant nephew who was a steward in the house, and was able to become a porter in the house.

To tell the truth, since he became the porter of the Yu family, his life has been much better than when he was a tenant before.

The Yu family is one of several wealthy businessmen in Yangzhou Prefecture, and there is naturally no shortage of food in the house.

Lao Zhangtou is here, not only well-fed and warmly dressed, but also from time to time there is the filial piety of those small merchants who ask the master to do things.

Just because of these filial piety, he has no less than three taels of silver every month, not to mention how nourishing it is.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of shaking at the gate, and Lao Zhangtou was so angry that he approved a piece of clothing and rushed out of the gatehouse.

He walked to the gate, and was about to scold, but before he could do so, the gate made of hard iron and wood collapsed.

In a puff of dust and smoke, a group of figures rushed in.

Seeing such a situation, Lao Zhangtou was immediately angry and scolded: "There is a bastard there, you know whose mansion this is!"

This is Master Yu's house, you dare to break the gate of our Yu Mansion, do you know how much sin you have committed.

I tell you, as long as our lord ......"

Suddenly, Lao Zhangtou's originally loud shout suddenly became smaller, and it turned out to be a cold knife tip, which had reached his neck.

The coldness from the tip of the knife seemed to reach his heart, and Kiri muttered a lot of words, all of which were held back in his stomach.

At this time, a cold voice came from in front of him: "Acquaintance, you shut up Lao Tzu, and now Lao Tzu will ask you, where does your lord in Yufu live?" ”

As the voice came, Lao Zhangtou's eyes, which were originally slightly presbyopia, then saw clearly what was happening in front of him.

At this time, in front of him, there was a tall military general with full armor, and he was looking at him coldly at this moment.

And the hilt of the sword that was on his neck was in the hand of the man.

From his cold eyes, Lao Zhangtou had no doubt that as long as he said half a word from his mouth, this knife would not hesitate to cut his neck like killing a chicken.

"Master Jun, spare your life. Military master, spare your life. Our master is resting in the backyard! ”

Lao Zhangtou, who has lived for most of his life, has a very deep understanding of the truth of not suffering immediate losses.

He immediately replied, and also pointed his finger in the direction

The person who put the knife on Lao Zhangtou's neck was Li Zixiao.

After listening to Lao Zhangtou's words, he pointed to the southeast direction and ordered his corporaries: "Everyone listen to this officer."

Now surround this mansion to me, and not a single one shall escape, and if you encounter any resistance, you will be killed. ”

"Yes."

The hundreds of soldiers gathered behind Li Zixiao responded in unison, and immediately rushed into the inner courtyard of the Yu Mansion with knives, guns, and firearms.

Soon, in this originally quiet and solemn mansion, a series of sharp screams immediately sounded.

Quartz led a group of personal soldiers and hugged Li Zixiao to the inner courtyard.

Along the way, they saw groups of servants and subordinates in Yufu, escorted to the front yard by the white dragon soldiers.

Of course, there are also many young masters and young ladies in Yufu who are not neatly dressed, but they all look like they are all silk and satin.

At this time, Tianba escorted an old man about sixty years old, disheveled, but mentally unusually strong.

As soon as he saw Li Zixiao, Tianba shouted excitedly: "General, my subordinates have arrested this old man surnamed Yu." ”

At this time, Yu Shiming had already seen Li Zixiao, and before Li Zixiao could pass, he was already shouting over there: "Sure enough, it's you, surnamed Li."

The old man can tell you clearly that you have done such a great rebellion, and you are doomed.

Privately brought heavy troops into the city and trespassed into the mansion of the imperial court, you are simply going to rebel, this time the king of heaven and Lao Tzu will not be able to save you.

What awaits you is to be removed from your post and investigated, or even to be beheaded, you leave my house immediately, and then kowtow to me and apologize, maybe I can forgive you. ”

Looking at Yu Shiming's angry beard and glaring at him, he shouted at Li Zixiao here, Li Zixiao didn't speak, let the old man pretend to be better first.

There was silence all around, and after a long time, a burst of laughter suddenly broke out, and the white dragon soldiers next to them all leaned forward and fell back with laughter.

This old man is now difficult to care about, and he even dares to threaten them, isn't this the old birthday star hanging himself - is he impatient?

Among the crowd, especially Li Tianba's laughter was the loudest, this man with an honest temperament couldn't laugh with his stomach covered.

Li Tianba laughed while saying breathlessly: "This old man laughed at me to death, he should have threatened us with rebellion, and he didn't inquire about what we did before."

It's a big deal, it's a big deal. ”

"Tianba, don't talk nonsense, we're just here to get justice this time, what rebellion is not rebellion, Lao Tzu is the general of the Ming Dynasty, this is an iron fact.

Could it be that a little Zhishi official slandered casually, is it better to pretend than finish, Tianba, take them down, and send someone to copy them for me. ”

Li Zixiao scolded Li Tianba and told him not to talk nonsense, he was only here for the Yu family this time, and he really didn't plan to rebel.

Then, he looked at Yu Shiming coldly, and said with disdain in his eyes.

Li Zixiao looked at the masters, ladies, concubines, young masters, and young ladies of the Yu family who were brought out from the Yu Mansion by his subordinates, and they were wearing silk and satin, gold and silver, which were really extravagant.

Moreover, Li Zixiao casually walked around the mansion twice, and the grandeur of the mansion really opened Li Zixiao's eyes.

This Yufu is simply many times more magnificent than the Guanfu, a typical Suzhou garden type style, classical, elegant.

At this time, Li Zixiao once again felt how wealthy businessmen were in this era.

They claim to be the elite of the country, desperately attached to the body of the Ming Dynasty, and sucked the flesh and blood of the Ming court and the people to strengthen themselves.

But they will only take, not give, they control the civil bureaucracy, desperately to seize power from the emperor.

In their hearts, they actually regard the emperor as a puppet, but they are secretly desperately searching for wealth.

Under the banner of "not competing with the people for profit, but hiding wealth from the people", they are doing evil deeds behind their backs, and this banner has almost become their invincible theoretical magic weapon.

According to their meaning, if your country wants to raise taxes, you can only fight the idea of agriculture.

If the imperial court wants to increase agricultural taxes, it can be discussed, but if they want to increase industrial and commercial taxes, then they will try to prevent it.

The phrase "Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road" is talking about these rich gentry.

They lived a life of spending, drinking and drinking, and they had less than two percent of the population, but they accounted for eighty percent of the wealth of the entire Ming Dynasty.

The industry and commerce of the Ming Dynasty were actually the most developed in Chinese history.

But the Ming Dynasty was also one of the poorest dynasties in Chinese history.

Because these wealthy businessmen, who hold more than 80 percent of the wealth in society, hold on to this wealth to the death.

But he was reluctant to take it out, even a little, to give back to this society and the people, which was the most important factor in the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

These ostensibly lowly businessmen actually possessed enormous wealth and power.

The phrase 'money makes the devil grind' has been useful since ancient times.

Through the wealth in their hands, they bribed, colluded with those court officials, and then gained power and continued to make more money.

As for whether the imperial court will be replaced, who will be the emperor, and whether the Tartars outside the customs will enter the customs, they don't care at all, they just care about how to make money and how to enjoy.

Originally, in this era, the concept of the state and the nation was not very strong, and these businessmen didn't care even more.

Otherwise, the Ming Dynasty explicitly forbade trade with the Guanwai Tatars, preventing them from obtaining the iron, salt, grain and other materials they lacked.

But they can't stop it at all, these businessmen simply ignore this prohibition of the imperial court, as long as they can make money, what country is not the country, it doesn't matter.

Otherwise, Li Zixiao would not have had such a bad attitude towards these landlords and unscrupulous businessmen, all for a reason.
