Chapter 166: World Affairs (2)
The rise of any country is destined to be accompanied by the blood of countless innocent people.
Massacre, plunder.
Exploitation, suppression.
Either the country will be destroyed or the race will be assimilated.
History has always been like this.
Humans have always been like this.
~
Goryeo first explains to the end, let us bring the picture back to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, Yingtian Prefecture.
After the heavy rain, there is a bright and prosperous color here.
But in the secret, the blade was already bright, waiting for the blood to moisten.
"Why did Wang Ning go these days? Why can't anyone see him?"
Among the Taibai Buildings in the Eight Great Buildings of the Capital, the best on the second floor is the private room that can completely overlook the entire Yangtze River. Tang Jing held a wine glass and frowned.
Fu Zhong also looked worried, "I went to his house to look for him yesterday and said he was sick?"
"I'm sick? I'm watching the salt boat come. He's sick at this time?" Tang Jing put down his wine glass and suddenly said alertly, "Does he want to change his mind at the moment?"
"It shouldn't be!" Fu Zhong thought for a while, "What he changed from what he planned? Besides, has he become?"
At this moment, Li Fangying, who was sitting at the end, suddenly snorted, "You know him the first day? He is just like that. He wants benefits but doesn't want to get a lot of fishy food. Wait, he will jump out immediately after getting the money!"
Hu Guan in the corner also spoke, "I am indeed sick. Someone from the Imperial Hospital went to his house and came back to say that he lost weight due to wind, cold, high fever and high fever, vomiting and diarrhea!"
Hu Guan's words are more attractive than Li Fangying's words.
The people in the room, who had just hesitated, calmed down again.
But Tang Jing still frowned, with a look of entanglement on his face that he had never seen before.
"Are you?" Hu Guan asked.
Tang Jing picked up the wine glass again and brought it to his mouth but didn't drink it. He said, "I guess you know that my second uncle has been transferred back to the capital!" As he said, he shook his head and said, "The Governor's Office of the Later Army is also in charge of the Beijing camp. The official position is nice, but everyone knows that this is a free agent!"
"My second uncle was having a banquet at home yesterday. All of us young people arrived. The second uncle suddenly inexplicably warned us juniors not to cause trouble for the family!" As he said that, he looked at everyone, "You guys, are we leaking the news?"
Suddenly, the atmosphere inside the house became tense again.
The few nobles and son-in-law were fine, but the middle-level officials of the Ministry of Revenue who participated were instantly dissatisfied.
"Then you just thought of this?" Hu Guan sneered in his heart, "It's over!"
But on the surface, he pretended to think, "No!" As he said, he looked at Fu Zhong, "It's all his own people, how can the matter be missed? It's all because of your own life?"
Fu Zhong no longer had the calmness of the past, and his words were full of uncertainty, "Yes, you can't miss it!" As he said, he said again, "If you miss it, you can't get out of here now!"
"You guys, I always say that I am timid, but now it seems that you are as timid as a mouse!" Li Fangying suddenly said disdainfully, "When things are coming, I am thinking about it. Is it because my little wife enters the bridal chamber, are you afraid of being picked?"
As he said that, he said again, "Mr. Tang Er, your second uncle in your house, and the Duke of the State is the right thing to do to transfer back to the capital."
At this moment, all eyes were looking at him.
Li Fangying continued, "Think about it, how many years have your second uncle been in Xi'an Town? Those are the Xi'an Town of Dusi, Shaanxi. Not to mention your second uncle, it is your grandfather's generation. Which old military leader has been in the same place for more than three years?"
He seemed to be reasonable when he said this.
Civil officials cannot stay in one place for a long time, especially military officers. Because in the army, it is much easier to cultivate cronies than civil servants, and there are more power.
"Besides, is he the only one who is transferred? Liaoyang Guard, Baoding General, Shandong Dusi, Henan Dusi, have not been transferred all of them? The veteran Song from Gansu has stopped Liaodong..."
Speaking of this, he looked at Fu Zhong, "Your third brother returned to the capital, but he was promoted!"
It was a good thing, but Fu Zhong didn't look happy at all, but he was a little chewy.
"This is normal for transferring, why do you want to do so much? My brother has left Beijing and went to Huaian, so I'm not afraid!" Li Fangying spread her hands, "Besides, if you really leak it, it doesn't matter if you transfer or not or arrest us."
Tang Jing said, "Why is it okay?"
"Ha!" Li Fangying sneered, "Li Shanchang, Hu Weiyong, so many old military marquis, when he fell, it was just a word from the emperor, the affairs of the Jinyiwei team. Do you think we are better than those old ones? Oh, if you want to deal with us, you have to transfer all our family back?"
Um!
Everyone looked at each other and it seemed that what they said was really reasonable.
It seems that this is really the case.
Then, Li Fangying smiled and said, "What are you doing to transfer the pillars of the family back for us? Should we let the family destroy their relatives for justice, or to implicate the nine tribes, all of them..."
"Shut up!" Fu Zhongshi couldn't stand it anymore, "What's the matter with Hu Lilian?"
Li Fangying rolled his eyes, "It's just a matter of discussion!"
"Okay, okay, listen to me!" Tang Jing finally drank a little wine and said seriously, "It's time to do it without delay!" As he said that, he took out a thick stack of silver notes from his sleeves, and threw them on the table with a snap.
"The salt ship was unloaded last night and the private salt entered the official warehouse. You also know that some people have to walk around in the world. There have been holes in Lianghuai Salt Field in the past two years. Use our salt to settle the account and then return it to us. This is the filial piety they gave, a total of 35,000 silver dollars. Let's share it first!"
"I never hide my work!" Tang Jing said again, "The big head is still behind!" As he said, he looked at Hu Guan and smiled, "Mr. Prince Consort, the salt merchants are here. How many stones of salt bills are you going to give me?"
Hu Guan smiled, playing with a string of agarwood pillars in his hand, and said, "Guanglu Temple has 200,000 stone of salt bills this year, I will give you all!" As he said, he said, "Guanglu Temple's salt bills are 30% lower than the official price!"
Suddenly, everyone was overjoyed.
"Don't be anxious!" Hu Guan continued, "This year, I will reward the six border vassal kings of Su Liao, Qingmin, and Han. Most of the rewards are rice, grain, oil, noodles, cloth, etc. for labor, and they all need to be transported by merchants. So, there are also 300,000 stones of salt bill, which is also 300,000 yuan lower than the official price, and I will give it to you!"
Everyone was overjoyed and laughed happily.
It is 30% lower than the official price. Even if these people sell it to others at three levels higher than the official price, they will make 60% in vain. Moreover, more than that? They are still using dead salt, and the price of selling official salt?
Money is not so fast in the world!
Tang Jing couldn't help but correct Hu Guan, "Mr. Prince Consort, you said it wrong, not for us, but for us!" As he said that, he raised his glass and said, "Come on, everyone, please follow me to wish Mr. Prince Consort a glass!"
Hu Guan smiled, but didn't serve the cup.
"You are..." Fu Zhong said in confusion.
"I dare not drink it!" Hu Guan smiled, "When I go back, the princess smells the wine, I have to sleep in the guest room at night!"
"Hahaha!" Everyone laughed, "The relationship is still bronchitis!"
At this moment, the laughter suddenly stopped.
"Does go! The Jinyiwei handles the case!"
Before he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps came from the stairs.
Then with a clang, the door of the private room was kicked open.
All of this was in the midst of lightning, overwhelming.
Everyone in the private room was stunned. They didn't know the wine in their hands, but they all opened their mouths and eyes widened.
He Guangyi was wearing a Qilin suit and came in from outside and looked around coldly.
"Ha, He is in charge of official duties, and he has ruined the nature of his masters, don't blame me!" As he said that, he waved his hand suddenly, "I will investigate the case with orders and arrest me of the princess, the grandson of this prince, and the son of that prince. Slowly, they are all nobles, don't be twisted to death!"
"He Guangyi, you..." Tang Jinggang wanted to question loudly, but he didn't want to be blocked directly.
"Mr. Prince Consort, you..."
"I'll do it myself!" Hu Guan stood up and smiled at He Guangyi, "Give me some face, I want shame!"
"This is natural!" He Guangyi smiled.
"Hey! Hey! Awkward my arm, my brother Li Jinglong! Ouch!"
Bang!
Li Fangying, who was shouting, had a mouth hit on her face.
"I...I am in..."
"Get your mouth shut!" He Guangyi frowned.
