Chapter 536 How many important things have you done?
"Boss, it's really not us who provoked us. Think about it, who are we? Can we provoke people from the Tianzhan Sect?"
A group of people followed and shouted grievances.
The boss of the opium shop could only believe them, and then he began to negotiate with the disciples of the Tiancan sect and sent many gold and silver treasures.
However, even though the disciples of the Tiancan Sect took the money, they were still not allowed to open opium dens. For a time, opium dens in all the capitals of the Ming Dynasty were forced to close their doors.
"Hehe! Your Highness, according to your instructions, all the opium dens in our Ming Dynasty have been closed!"
Li Guozhen said with a smile.
Lin Fan also heard about the recent events. This Li Guozhen was really a thief and actually let people from the martial arts do things for him. He could also make good use of this fact.
"Li Guozhen, I have to say, you are indeed a talent. With your single hand, you not only solved all the opium dens in my Ming Dynasty, but also helped me solve the next problems for my prince."
Lin Fan said with a smile.
"kindness?
Your Highness, what else have I solved for you?"
Li Guozhen asked with a smile.
"I have always wanted to reform those martial arts sects and let them form a system under the imperial court system and be linked to the school, but I have no reason."
"Now I have a reason. They smashed up the opium dens in my Ming Dynasty. This is considered an overstep of their authority. To put it more seriously, they are provoking the Ministry of Punishment of my Ming Dynasty."
"Hey! Tell me this reason. How good are you for this prince?"
Lin Fan said with a smile.
Forehead……
After hearing this, Li Guozhen was speechless. He felt that he had been tricked by the prince!
"Your Highness, those martial arts sects did this because they were threatened by me. If you do this now, wouldn't you put me in an unkind and unjust place?"
Li Guozhen said in a deep voice.
"Old Li! I'm not telling you, but you can't stand it. How many benevolent and righteous things have you done in court over the years?
Your image is that of despicable and shameless!”
"Now you insist on being benevolent and needing face, but instead of losing face, just listen to me and do despicable things in the future without suffering any consequences!"
Lin Fan patted Li Guozhen on the shoulder and said.
There are black lines on Li Guozhen's forehead. How can I put it this way? I also helped you handle the matter. It's so shameless for you to hurt me like this.
"Your Highness, those martial arts sects are not easy to mess with. How do you plan to deal with them? If you are too tough, I am worried that they will..."
Li Guozhen hesitated to speak. He was worried that Lin Fan would be too harsh on the martial arts sects. Those martial arts people were all lickers of blood. If they were to fight him to the death, everything would be over.
"Don't worry, I know this matter well, and I will never involve you. At most, they just want to beat you."
Lin Fan said with a smile.
At this time, rumors spread throughout the Ming Dynasty.
"Have you heard?
The martial arts sect started fighting with our opium dens in the Ming Dynasty, and they are not allowed to open opium dens anymore. Now we have no place to smoke!"
"Oh! I get angry when I think about this. Isn't it obvious?
If it is not convenient for the people in the court to do this, let those martial arts sects come forward!"
"This matter is unreasonable. Those opium dens did not violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty. They are not allowed to open. If anyone raises objections, they will be smashed directly. This is too much!"
"I also heard that this matter was the intention of His Highness the Crown Prince. You have all heard about what happened in Kaifeng Mansion, right? Our Highness the Crown Prince is becoming more and more domineering!"
…
The common people were talking about this matter privately, and those who opened opium dens also understood why their opium dens were smashed. It was actually the Crown Prince who was behind it.
"Damn it! We are all honest businessmen. It is unreasonable for His Highness to do this!"
Li Dabiao said coldly.
He opened three opium dens in the capital and earned hundreds of thousands of taels of silver every year. Now that the opium dens were destroyed, he suffered huge losses.
"Boss, we can't open a cigarette shop now, why don't we do other business?"
One person suggested.
"Do you have other businesses, like opening a smoking den to make money?
Besides, besides doing this, do you know anything else?
Like cooking or something?”
Li Dabiao said coldly.
"Boss, I used to be a cook, and my master is a famous chef. My fellow apprentices are all good at their crafts. As long as you agree, boss, I will contact them now!"
The man said.
"kindness?
Your boy is really a cook! Alas! For now, we can only change it into a restaurant. You need to find more cooks."
Li Dabiao said solemnly.
The one who opened the most opium dens in the capital was Li Dabiao. He turned his opium dens into restaurants, and opium dens elsewhere in the capital also started other businesses.
Seeing that things were done, Lin Fan promulgated a law prohibiting the opening of opium dens in the Ming Dynasty. Anyone who opened an opium den would not only be fined, but also imprisoned.
At the same time, another imperial edict was issued, and the martial arts sect smashed shops in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, suspected of provoking the imperial power!
At the same time, any martial arts sect that recruits disciples without the permission of the Ming Dynasty is illegal!
Moreover, these martial arts sects are ordered to disband, otherwise, a large army will invade the territory and arrest the leaders of these martial arts sects.
As soon as this imperial edict came out, those who had previously said that the imperial court and the martial arts sect were colluding were stunned. His Royal Highness did this, and it was obvious that he was not cooperating with the martial arts sect!
In this way, the previous smashing of the opium den was really the personal behavior of those martial arts sects!
"Damn it! I thought the court asked those people to smash it, but I didn't expect it was their own intention. It's so abominable!"
Li Dabiao couldn't help but cursed.
"Boss, when we opened the opium shop before, we had to give them a batch of money every year. Although it is only a few thousand taels, it is still our hard-earned money!"
"It's okay now. We are running a restaurant, so we don't need to give them money. Whatever we make is our own!"
One person said with a smile.
Li Dabiao cursed loudly and said: "What you said is somewhat reasonable. We can make a lot of money by opening a restaurant, but there is no need to run the opium den business anymore."
Due to the changes in the laws of the Ming Dynasty, there were no opium dens in the Ming Dynasty, and the martial arts sects were not calm anymore.
The heads of various sects gathered in Huashan to discuss countermeasures.
"Everyone, we are all members of the martial arts world. Over the years, we have put in so much effort for the martial arts world. Is this huge martial arts world going to be destroyed now?"
A nun wearing a monk's robe said in a deep voice.
After she finished speaking, a few more people spoke up, saying: "Nanhai Shenni is a senior in the martial arts world. He was imprisoned just because he beat up someone from the Crown Prince's guard. Now his life or death is uncertain!"
