A box.

Goods worth three hundred thousand taels!

Gao Yangzhi and Bai Yuxiu looked at each other, and there was a strange look in the eyes of these brothers.

"I never thought that my second brother is worth three hundred thousand taels."

Zhu Yunxi joked in a faint tone, and the white jade finger on his hand turned faster.

Bai Yuxiu smiled dryly and whispered: "These people really don't hesitate to spend a lot of money."

Just a cripple who was demoted as a cripple by His Majesty and expelled from the clan could be so valued by Shanxi merchants in Shanxi Province that they spent a lot of money to win over him.

These people are not very kind-hearted. They feel that the cripples are imprisoned in Fengyang City, Zhongdu, and their life is not good, so they want to lend a helping hand.

“The plan is very big!”

Xiao Gaoge made the final decision, his eyes showing solemnity.

Several people turned their attention to Zhu Yunxi, waiting for the imperial grandson's final decision.

This matter can no longer be explained by a simple conspiracy of traitors and collusion with Bai Lian.

Since the third year of Hongwu, Shanxi merchants have obtained the power to control the salt ponds in Hedong under the Kaizhong system, and have controlled the transportation of grain and grass materials for hundreds of thousands of frontier troops in the nine-border town. It has been twenty-five years since then. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, when the world was in chaos, they were injured.

The energetic Shanxi merchants have already recovered their vitality, and even gone a step further.

In his hands, he has wealth that is unparalleled in the country, and he has the power to control whether hundreds of thousands of frontier soldiers are fed. He also controls the entire Hedong Salt Pond.

These were originally the lowest-level merchants among scholars, farmers, and merchants. In a sense, their status had exceeded the limit that it should not have.

Hundreds of thousands of border troops were involved.

How much involvement did the Sansi Yamen of Shanxi Province and the entire local government of Shanxi Province participate in it?

Up and down, how many officials who belong to the imperial court have been co-opted and corrupted by Shanxi merchants who are extremely wealthy, and they are running around for them, covering up and down.

In just a few years, in Fengyang City, the central capital, he could invest 300,000 taels of property in a useless man who had lost all hope and authority.

These people may have already turned the entire Shanxi Province into a country within a country!

Sun Cheng observed the words and said in a low voice: "What should we do with the property here?"

"Since it belongs to the second brother, it should naturally be returned to the second brother."

Zhu Yunxi smiled faintly.

Sun Cheng was stunned for a moment, nodded and took a step back.

Taisun easily picked out the crippled man from this incident.

Gao Yangzhi bowed and said, "Does Your Highness want me to write a memorial now and submit it to His Majesty?"

Bai Yuxiu's eyes immediately turned to her senior brother.

It is a rare opportunity to see in person a memorial written by this senior fellow student.

Above the court, there are many officials, each of whom has his own set of political ideas, and their memorials can most directly reflect their political ideas.

Zhu Yunxi nodded: "Send to Yingtian."

"Then how to deal with the incident on Shanxi Road..."

"Breaking the vitality of Shanxi merchants!" Zhu Yunxi said with a cold expression between his brows, "Your Majesty is informed that Shanxi merchants insist on opening up the central system, which is detrimental to the country. The imperial court should

A large warehouse in Beiping Prefecture was added, Guangyun Jiaozhi Road was built, grain and grass were stored on the road to occupy the city, and important towns on the nine sides were transferred to be used by our Ming Dynasty border troops."

Gao Yang stopped and nodded and said: "If we want to handle the matter of Shanxi merchants in Shanxi Province in a smooth manner, it is inevitable that the opening of the central system will continue at present. The Okura of Beiping Prefecture has set up affairs, and the imperial court can use the document as an excuse to rectify the nine-border army. The imperial court plans and prepares for the Northern Expedition.

For military needs."

The transportation of grain and grass involving tens of millions of stones is bound to be impossible to do silently.

With so much grain and grass being transported to Beiping Prefecture, Shanxi merchants from Shanxi Province who were responsible for supplying grain and grass to the Nine-Border Army were bound to receive the news as soon as the incident began.

Zhu Yunxi turned his eyes, and Gao Yangzhi used the imperial court's preparations for the Northern Expedition as an excuse to cover up the construction of a large warehouse in Beiping Prefecture and replace it with Shanxi merchants. This cannot be considered prudent.

He nodded and said, "Draft a memorial accordingly."

"I obey the order."

He raised his head and bowed, raised his fists, and then said, "Your Highness, I believe that in order to completely quell the chaos caused by the Shanxi merchants, the imperial court must also regain the Hedong Salt Pond.

In recent years, Shanxi merchants have put their hands and feet into the Huaiyang Salt Fields. Beiping Prefecture has built large warehouses to prevent disasters from affecting the border troops. Banning the Huaiyang Salt Fields in the east of the river will cut off its financial resources.

When all preparations are complete, His Highness can order the army to encircle Shanxi Road, close the door and beat the dogs, and completely eliminate the traitors and traitors in Shanxi Road!"

This is a long plan.

Zhu Yunxi tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest, making a low muffled sound.

After a long time, he nodded and said: "The spring breeze holds the pen, and this matter is all decided by you."

Gao Yangzhi's eyes flickered.

Taking the Shanxi Road as a training ground, matters related to the country and the country were handed over to his own hands, spreading up and down throughout the court.

He took a deep breath, cupped his hands and bent down: "Wei Chen takes orders!"

Zhu Yunxi hummed, clapped his hands on the armrests, and stood up: "All matters in Zhongdu will be left to my entourage to deal with. Fengyang Magistrate will accompany him to the north."

Qiu Fengzhen, who was being guarded by two officers and soldiers of the Jinyi Guards, heard the sound and her heart dropped, but she could not calm down. Instead, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar or a bottomless abyss.

I'm going to be doomed.

A group of officials from the imperial court accompanied Taisun to the north for inspection, which was a sign of being placed in a position of great importance.

Fortunately, he was the local magistrate of Fengyang, the central capital, and was named to accompany him to the north. This was to remove himself from his position as the magistrate of Fengyang.

After he went north with him, could the seat in Fengyang Mansion remain vacant, waiting for him to return and continue his work?

It's just that no one cares about the Fengyang magistrate's gains and losses in officialdom.

Zhu Yunxu exchanged a few words with Gao Yangzhi, then led Sun Cheng, took the box, and headed to the yard where Zhu Yunxu was.

When Zhu Yunxi rushed to the courtyard gate, he saw that Zhu Yunwen had already carried out a planer, holding several carpentry tools in his hand, and was making several pieces of furniture that could not yet be distinguished.

Bang.

The wooden box came back again, and was placed in Zhu Yunwen's sight by Sun Cheng's subordinates.

Zhu Yunwen, who was cutting on a piece of wood with a line drawn on it, couldn't help but trembled with his hands. The sharp chisel slipped out of the line and carved out a large piece of wood chips.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He couldn't help but frown and looked up at Zhu Yunxi who was also returning.

"The penny is gone."

But he just turned a blind eye to the wooden box that was clearly in sight.

Zhu Yunxi glanced twice, but sat directly on the wooden box.

He reached down and patted the wooden box: "Sun Cheng just touched this place, and there is no less than 300,000 taels of property. Logically speaking, it should be sent to Tiantian, handed over to the Ministry of Revenue, and paid into the national treasury.

It's just that it's not easy for you and your second sister-in-law to live here. The fields outside the city were originally given to you, but I didn't want you, my second brother, to give them all to the people.

Let's keep this money now. No matter what, it will allow the second sister-in-law to live a more dignified life.

Furthermore, if the second brother scatters this money, I am afraid that the people will not dare to take it. Wealth and silk are very attractive, and if the people take these things, they will only be killed."

Not to mention those jiaozi that need to be exchanged at Shanxi merchants' money shops, but also those priceless treasures.

But ordinary people can hold it in their hands.

Unless it never leaks out.

If not, we will definitely not be able to stay for the next day.

It may even lead to death and family destruction.

Zhu Yunwen sighed: "Why does His Highness Taisun do this..."

"It can be said that the imperial court has not paid any attention to the compensation of Zhongdu Imperial City in the past few years."

Zhu Yunxi explained in a calm voice while looking at the damaged piece of wood under Zhu Yunwen's hand.

"What is this going to do?"

When talking about his carpentry work, Zhu Yunwen's eyes clearly lit up.

At this time, Qiuniang, who was doing housework in the house, had already walked out carrying a cold teapot and a tea bowl.

Qiuniang smiled and said very warmly, "Your Highness, please have some tea."

"Thank you, second sister-in-law."

Zhu Yunxi thanked him smoothly.

Qiuniang poured a cup of herbal tea for each of them and put it on the table beside her. Without leaving any more, she turned around and went back to the house.

Zhu Yunxi took a sip of herbal tea and stared directly at Zhu Yunwen.

It seemed a little uncomfortable to be stared at.

Zhu Yunwen lowered his head and looked at the damaged wood with pity: "This was originally a rocking chair ordered by Uncle Zhang's family in the east of the city. The old man's family has had many grandchildren in the past two years, and the old man stopped working, so he thought
