Chapter 229: Hidden Feelings

How can Jiangnan's behavior be not simple, Niu Ben can only say a rough idea, and Wen Bo can only understand a rough idea, but Qin Feng is different, in addition to being good at martial arts, Qin Feng also likes to read, and has also made many friends who are readers.

Therefore he knew in more detail, and he explained it to the people.

Since the Wanli period of the former Ming Dynasty, after the abolition of the Kaizhong Law in the way of salt administration, the "Outline Law" was established.

The method is: the salt quotation received by each merchant is divided into ten outlines, compiled into an outline book, and one outline is introduced every year, and nine outlines are newly introduced.

The quotations contained in the compendium allow merchants to "forever for a hundred years, and take it as a nest", and every year according to the old number in the book, the new quotes are made, and the merchants who are not named in the compendium are not allowed to join the salt industry.

From then on, the official did not collect salt, and the merchant traded directly with the fried household, and the right to buy and sell it belonged to the merchant and was hereditary.

The program of the "Outline Law" is the civil system, commercial revenue, commercial transportation, and commercial marketing, and salt historians call it the "commercial monopoly system".

The Great Qin Salt Administration, inheriting the outline law at the end of the Ming Dynasty, implemented the commercial monopoly system of civil system, commercial income, commercial transportation, and commercial sales, which was called the official supervision and commercial sales system.

The officials who inspected the salt merchants also followed the old practice of the Ming Dynasty, and the imperial court sent them to inspect the salt imperial history, and the prime minister of the salt administration of the first district.

To a large extent, patrolling the history of salt control the life and death of salt merchants.

It can be seen that the right to patrol the salt imperial history is heavy.

And that's just one of them.

Furthermore, why are salt merchants rich in the world?

If you just follow the rules and sell salt according to the salt, even if you can make a fortune, you can't become a giant with a warehouse full of gold and silver in pearl buckets.

The reason why salt merchants can become giants in the world is very simple, they are dressed in legal official salt clothes, but they are mixed with reselling illegal salt.

The imperial court also knew that this kind of thing could not be forbidden. So, whoever is a salt merchant. It is inevitable to "pay tribute" to the imperial court, or rather. "Tribute" to the Imperial History of Salt Patrol.

When it comes to interests, especially those that are like mountains of gold and silver, things immediately become complicated.

The interests are moving, and gold and silver are even more courageous.

After those salt merchants became rich, in addition to raising some salt dings, they would also spend a lot of money to buy or train martial artists to be thugs.

If there is a conflict of interest, or if someone wants to touch the cheese on their plate, then cutting off someone's money is like killing their parents. The consequences can be imagined.

In addition to salt merchants, there are almost countless people who smuggle and sell illicit salt.

The four levels of Shinong Industry and Commerce are almost all over, and none of these people who dare to pin their heads to the waistbands of their trousers are easy to get along with, and the condensed forces are not trivial.

In addition to that, there is. The "heroes and heroes" on the rivers and lakes and green forests.

Those so-called martial arts families, eight times out of ten. Nine rely on the sale of illicit salt, relying on the windfall profits of illicit salt, in order to become a big tycoon. Only then can I have the money to boil my bones and become a martial arts master.

Since ancient times, chivalry has been forbidden by force. These "heroes" don't even look at Wang Fa, let alone a few officials?

"Old Qin. What do you want to talk about when you say so much? ”

Wembo acute sub. After listening for a long time, I didn't hear a reason, so I interrupted and asked.

When Qin Feng heard this, he glanced at him and said, "What are you anxious about, I'm not about to get to the point." ”

Wen Bo laughed angrily: "You have been talking for most of the time, and you haven't gotten to the point yet, and you still say I'm in a hurry?" ”

Qin Feng scolded with a smile: "If you don't make it clear in the front, how can you talk about it later?" ”

Niu Ben shook his head and looked at Wen Bo, and said sympathetically: "You are a typical ugly person with a lot of strange words, you are not educated and not modest to study, you look at Brother Huan and me, there is not so much nonsense." ”

Wen Bo said angrily, "Are you farting now?" ”

After all, he may be moved by his own sense of humor, and his broom eyebrows flew up again, and he laughed out loud.

The cow roared angrily, rolled up his sleeves and was about to go to war.

Wen Bo naturally can't ask for it!

Jia Huan hurriedly stood in the middle and persuaded: "Wait first, can you wait first?" Brother Feng hasn't finished talking yet. After I'm gone, Haohanzhuang will almost be ready to open, and it's time for you to do it. ”

When the two of them heard this, they gave up and looked at Qin Feng with Jia Huan.

Qin Feng was as warm as jade, and he didn't get a little impatient after watching the three of them grind for a long time, and only after he quieted down did he continue to talk.

However, he seemed to be a little hesitant, thinking about how to phrase it.

Jia Huan saw his hesitation and said in surprise: "Brother Feng, but what's in the way of my uncle?" ”

Qin Feng nodded with a wry smile and said, "I also heard rumors that I don't know if it's true or not, I'm afraid I will be disrespectful to my elders." ”

Jia Huan said with a smile: "You also said it, I just heard what people said, Brother Feng is just paraphrasing, naturally he will not be disrespectful, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Qin Feng nodded, no longer hesitated, and said, "I said so much earlier, I was talking about the powerful relationship involved in Jiangnan Yanzheng. If Lord Lin was in Jiangnan and his predecessor Yanzheng Yushi, with the same light and dust, and a harmonious atmosphere, then there would be no impeachment today. Just ......"

"Lord Lin is iron-faced and selfless, wantonly seizing illicit salt?"

Wen Bo didn't hold back again, and said after making up for it on his own.

Niu Ben laughed out loud and mocked: "Brother Bo, are you eating too much ginseng in Changbai Mountain, and you have a bad brain?" If this is the case, will Lao Qin still say that he is disrespectful to his elders? ”

Wen Bo blinked when he heard this, he consciously took the loss, and after drawing his ring finger at Niu Ben, he looked at Qin Feng with an innocent face, as if nothing had happened......

After glaring at him angrily, Qin Feng continued: "I heard from some friends from Jiangnan...... Hmm, Lord Lin's official voice in Jiangnan...... It doesn't seem very good. Some people even slandered him for scraping the ground and competing with the people for profits to the point of unbelievable.

Because of this, Lord Lin would be assassinated two or three times a month. It seems that even his wife and young son are unfortunate because of this.

In order to preserve the last bit of blood, Lord Lin sent his beloved daughter to the capital.

In short, Brother Huan'er, I can't be careless. ”

After Jia Huan heard this, he couldn't believe his ears, and said in disbelief: "Brother Feng, what did you say?" ”

Niu Ben and Wen Bo's faces also sank, and Niu Ben frowned and said, "The people of Jiangnan are so rampant? There was also a garrison in Yangzhou. Lin Ruhai was in charge of the Jiangnan Salt Administration, and he also had a battalion of salt under him. There is also the protection of the Ouchi master sent by His Majesty, why is it here? ”

Wen Bo said angrily: "Isn't Yangzhou already the land of my Great Qin?" Is there such a mad person? What do Jinling festival envoys eat? ”

Qin Feng smiled bitterly: "After all, in the end." Or the interests are moving. What can't those people do for the sake of money? The land south of the Yangtze River is too rich. In all dynasties, there have been big things that have happened. Therefore, the imperial court repeatedly imposed heavy taxes.

Lord Lin...... The tax hike seems to be much heavier than the previous ones, and the control over private salt has been much stronger. Especially for those smugglers who never 'paid tribute' to the imperial court, they were even more bitter and cut off many gateway gangs. So ......"

Because it involves elders, Qin Feng inevitably has a lot of scruples when he speaks.

But everyone still heard it......

"Brother Huan. What is your uncle doing with all that money? His wife and children died because of this, who did he give all that wealth to? ”

Niu Ben and Jia Huan have a different relationship, if Qin Feng is not good to say, he has no scruples at all.

Jia Huan restrained his shocked heart, slowly shook his head and said: "There must be a hidden secret, when my cousin came from Yangzhou, the clothes he carried with him were not extravagant and exaggerated, and they were not as good as the ...... in our house."

Qin Feng hesitated. Fang Cai lowered his voice and added: "Your uncle, is the real henchman of His Majesty today......

These words are meaningful, and they also move everyone. It was also silenced.

However, Jia Huan was furious, and he narrowed his eyes. Han Sheng said: "He wants to be a loyal minister, so let him do it." Can be a man. But he was not worthy. And that one, really ......."

Qin Feng and the others heard this. The complexion changes again.

Niu Ben scolded: "Brother Huan, be cautious." ”

Jia Huan didn't have much impression of the aunt who had never been masked, but even if she didn't have any impression, she was also a member of the Jia family.

What's more, there is Lin Daiyu......

Because of Lin Ruhai's loyalty, Lin Daiyu became a lost daughter at such a young age.

This is no small matter!

In this era, there are still five non-marriages.

And the so-called five non-marrying, the first one, is the eldest daughter, not the eldest wife.

Because...... Less admonition.

This statement is very marketable in this era.

Jia Huan never thought that Lin Ruhai's matter would have such a tortuous hidden secret.

"Whew!"

Jia Huanchang exhaled, then looked at Qin Feng, and said, "Brother Feng, the Yangzhou army is garrisoned, it shouldn't be our people, right?" ”

Qin Feng nodded and said regretfully: "Yangzhou garrison Fang Dongcheng is the younger brother of Taiwei Fang Nantian. Otherwise......"

Niu Ben's face was hateful, and he lowered his voice and said: "Since the death of Rongguo in battle, the imperial court has always carried out the action of de-Rongguo in the army over the years, otherwise, Fang Nantian would not be able to serve as a marquis. ”

After Qin Feng heard this, his face was not very good-looking, and he said: "This is also an inevitable thing, my father's place has been constantly stuffed into the military machine pavilion over the years. Most of the old subordinates in the Wuwei army were transferred to other places......"

Wen Bo sneered disdainfully, and said, "They can also make these small moves, but the people who are really in charge of the army are always us, the old Ministry of Rongguo." Although my father was transferred from the Liaodong Black Dragon Legion, the person who took over the Black Dragon Legion was still the old department of Rongguo back then, and he was also my father's good brother, Uncle Luo. ”

Qin Feng smiled and said: "Only the generals who rise in the flames of war can serve the public, and now the Great Qin military, those who have really been on the battlefield and experienced the big battle are basically the old people of thirty years ago." Therefore, no matter what brains they use, they still can't get rid of a glory word in the end. ”

Niu Ben shook his head and said: "Those are all important towns in the frontier, and the military garrisons of the cities within Great Qin have now been replaced by people over there. But...... Brother Huan, when you go to Yangzhou, you have to pass by Jinling Yingtianfu.

The Zhen family in Jiangnan is the real head snake in Jiangnan, and it has been friends with your family for generations. Since you are passing by Jinling, you have to go to his house to visit the Zhen family's Fengsheng Lady, and you can take the opportunity to ask them to borrow a few good hands to use!

The Zhen family in Jiangnan was the eyes and ears of the Emperor Taishang in Jiangnan Detective Division, and Mrs. Fengsheng had the grace of nurturing and preserving the Emperor Taishang.

His family is known as the No. 1 wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, and even Jinling Jiedu has to sell his family a face.

If you have this condition, you might as well use it! (To be continued.) )
