Chapter 95 North and South (2)

Since ancient times, scholars and officials and emperors have shared the world, so a class of fame and fortune can transcend the people and enjoy many privileges.

These official ships passing through the canal are one of them without investigation.

There are not many officials behind the wealthy family, and there are not many officials in the family. Whether in the court or retirement, they can be unobstructed on the canal. This has been a practice for thousands of years, and no one is serious about it.

Officials have used official ships to carry goods in exchange for money.

But now, when it comes to tax evasion, I can't bear it.

"Stop talking!" Zhu Yunxiu suppressed his anger. The reason why Jing Qing came to the capital from the local area to meet him was definitely not the only thing he had to say.

"I also discovered that some wealthy families, wealthy merchants, officials, gentry and wealthy families are connected to the Japanese!"

Zhu Yunxi's face became ferocious, "How can you master the law? But is it related to those Japanese pirates?"

Since the establishment of the Jing Hai Army, which specializes in dealing with Japanese pirates, the incident of Japanese pirates thronging the coastal areas since the Hongwu period has disappeared, but fewer and fewer every day. These pirates are now entrenched in the offshore seas and make a living by collecting protection fees from passing sea merchants.

"The bulk goods of the tyrant merchants were actually sold from Ningbo Port to Japanese merchants!" Jing Qing said with a stern look, "Compared with canals and land, customs taxes are better leaked. The tyrants use fishing boats to deliver the goods to the sea, and then load and unload large ships at sea."

"They traded with the Japanese in stock! The Japanese pirates produced a lot of silver and were of good quality. The profiteers collected the silver of great quality and came back to melt it again..."

"Do they dare to mint coins in private?" Zhu Yunxiu's face was full of murderous aura.

"I'm afraid to mint coins, but I just add the silver I collected and it becomes impure!" Jing Qing said, "and use these impure silver to buy raw materials in the private world, and pay taxes when I have no choice!"

"Hmph! You really know how to settle the score!" Zhu Yunsheng sneered.

Just imagine, those profiteers who do business with Japanese people receive the highest purity silver. After they come back, add some things in, even if they add 30%, it will be equivalent to an additional 30% of the income. It is like 10,000 taels of silver, which directly turns into 13,000 taels of silver.

Adding 30% is quite conscientious.

The purchasing power of private silver has always been very strong. When they use this silver to buy things, the difference brought about by in and out is far beyond the number to measure.

"What is Zhang Shan's magistrate?" Zhu Yunxiu said angrily, "I asked him to be the governor of the local area to see that he was diligent in his past and had ethics. Is he so diligent in his past?"

Jing Qing paused and hesitated, "Emperor, Zhang Buzheng is a mature man and has a very virtuous official voice. He may not know the following things about the following. Even the ministers secretly visited, spent a lot of money and bribed many people before asking!"

Before he came, Tie Hyun told him.

These things can be told to the emperor, but it is best not to attract the emperor's anger to Zhang Shan. First of all, Zhang Shan did not know many things, and his methods of becoming an official are very different from theirs. Secondly, after all, Zhang Shan's daughter is now a noble concubine.

Some things should be cautious!

"Hmph, he does not seek to make progress as an official, does not seek to achieve success but does not seek to make mistakes!" Zhu Yunxiu said angrily.

"There are also Jinyiwei!" Zhu Yunxiu's anger had nowhere to vent, "What are you doing? They don't know about these things?" As he said, he said to the turtlema, "Let He Guangyi roll into the palace!"

The turtle was humiliated and said quickly, "I obey the order!"

After a while, Zhu Yunxiu took a few sips of cold tea, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said to Jing Qing, "But there is anything else?"

"I have found these at the moment!" Jing Qing bowed his head, "Before I came, I discussed with Tie Xuan, if I want to implement the new policy in Zhejiang, I must break all the old things. Officials, gentry and wealthy families should not be accommodated or tolerated, nor should I talk about the worldly affairs. I will catch what should be caught and kill what should be killed. Only in this way can I be shocked!"

"You are the Censorate. I give you power. Don't be afraid, kill me!" Zhu Yunsheng said coldly.

Zhu Yunyu felt no pity for the wealthy officials and gentry in Jiangnan.

When the Yuan Dynasty was against the Yuan Dynasty at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, these people were the vanguards of suppressing the rebel army. Speaking of which, the main enemy the old man faced back then was the landlord armed forces composed of these people.

After the old man occupied Jiangnan, he expanded his army and developed with Jiangnan finance and taxation as the center. In the end, the Northern Expedition was to use a knife to grab money from these people's pockets.

In history, as soon as the old man died, the taxes in Jiangnan in the Ming Dynasty were getting smaller and smaller every year.

Until the late Ming Dynasty, it was almost impossible to collect it.

When the Qing army entered the pass, the Aisin Jueluo family was not as easy to talk to as the Zhu family. Don’t give them money? Kill them with a big blade! In a few years, I will do it again!

"You go back and say to Tie Xuan, what I say will always be counted." Zhu Yunxiu said solemnly, "The new policy is urgent, and these tax evasion and corruption are urgent. If you give you power, you must use it!"

"My memory, obey the order!" Jing Qing bowed.

"Old Wang, where are you going? You're in a hurry!"

As soon as the turtle was out of the store, he met Duke Cao Li Jinglong who was waiting for the audience outside. Behind Li Jinglong, there was also a nervous boy. It seemed that the boy looked very similar to Li Jinglong.

It seems that it should be the Master.

"The family is looking for someone to pass the order to Commander He!" The turtlemaster said, reached out to summon a little eunuch, and said a few words with his ears.

Li Jinglong listened with his ears for a long time, and after the other party finished speaking, he grabbed the turtle's shame, "Old Wang, tell me what the hell is going to be unlucky?"

"How can the zodiac family know? The zodiac family just passes the message!" The turtle laughed, and he didn't dare to say something randomly.

"Hey, I'm still hiding with me. If we have a relationship with each other, it's okay to tell the truth?" Li Jinglong said with a smile.

"Duke Cao, don't mess with the miscellaneous people!" The turtle laughed.

That is, Lao He is going to be unlucky. Seeing this, Li Jinglong said in his heart.

Because in the past, the emperor wanted to see the commander of the Jinyiwei, and he asked the guards in the palace to find someone, so there was no need for eunuchs to pass the message. Eunuchs often made a very serious business and also meant that the emperor was angry.

"Old He is quite down-to-earth, why did you make Master Long angry?" Li Jinglong thought secretly again.

"Duke Cao, the family is going to enter. Don't hold the sleeves of the family!" said the turtle shook his hands.

Li Jinglong suddenly realized, let go of the sleeve of the turtle's shame, and then glared at the young man behind him and said, "Damn it, wooden stakes, no eyes. Haven't you seen General Manager Wang?"

The young man quickly possessed himself, "I have met General Manager Wang!"

"I dare not! Your young master! You are calling me a little master!" Although the turtlema is now at a high level, he knows his duty.

The son of Duke Cao was also a serious royal relative, so he did not dare to betray him.

"What kind of young master, he is just a junior!" Li Jinglong smiled and said angrily to his son, "Why are you so stupid? Call me Uncle Wang!"

The young man quickly bowed his head again, "Uncle Wang!"

"Don't kill the zodiac family!" The turtle shook his hand quickly, "When others hear it, the zodiac family just doesn't talk about the sins of high and low!"

"What are the superiority and inferiority of our brothers!" Li Jinglong said with a smile.

"The scattered family is going in! Let's talk about it later!" The turtle looked inside and turned around and left quickly.

~~~

"Dad!" Li Qi, the son of Li Jinglong, looked at the back of the turtle shame and whispered, "It's just a eunuch..."

"I'll kick you to death!" Li Jinglong was furious and pulled his son's ear, "You are about to go to the palace to work as a servant. Can you say this nonsense? A eunuch? That's the eunuch in charge next to the emperor?"

"Don't talk about you, I'll please me when I look at them!"

"Dad!" Li Qi begged for mercy, "It hurts!"

Li Jinglong let go of his son, "If it weren't for being in the palace, I would have kicked you to death now!" As he said, he said with a whisper, "Who do you look so stupid?"

"I was born to you, who do you think you look like?" Li Qi kept talking.

"I'm versatile when you are so old!" Li Jinglong said angrily, "Why did I give birth to you like this!"

Li Qi curled her lips, "It's not me who asked you to give birth!"

"I............"
