Four hundred and sixtieth chapters real dog big family
The next morning, after Yang Lin came out of the Prince Consort's Mansion, Pan Yi had already been taken into custody.
So far, all the families of the Forbidden Army have been wiped out. All the families that have been in charge of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Forbidden Army since the founding of the country have been confiscated.
These people are the so-called nobles. If there was a good person, the Forbidden Army would not be reduced to this situation.
The imperial street in the early morning was a bit cold, and the cool breeze was moist. Yang Lin couldn't help but tighten his cloak. When he walked below the Fan Tower, he saw a group of Tiqi from the Duwei Mansion sealing the Fan Tower.
This is the largest restaurant in Bianliang, Tokyo, the most luxurious restaurant, and it is also the property of the Pan family.
There were no fewer than a thousand shopkeepers, tea masters, children, and cooks in the restaurant, all standing at the door with their luggage piled beside them.
This is where they make a living. After losing it all of a sudden, everyone is unhappy. But they actually don't have to worry about their livelihood. Fan Lou's reputation is here, and for people who leave here, there are countless restaurants waiting to be robbed.
When Ti Qi, the leader, saw Yang Lin's men, he came over with a smile and clasped his fists in salute. Yang Lin said casually: "Although Fan Tower is the property of the Pan family, since the emperor is the emperor, he should have the emperor's share. Pan Yi
What crime does the Emperor have to commit adultery? From now on, this Fan Tower will belong to the Emperor Rouhui."
When the people in the restaurant heard this, they immediately became happy and prepared to reopen the business. Tiqi also began to tear the seal.
At this time, Yin Muhong came out of Fan Tower and saw Yang Lin looking a little unnatural. Yesterday, he found out that Pan Yi was illegal, and Yang Shaozai actually went there in person and didn't come back all night. Only then did he know Yang Lin's purpose.
Yang Lin looked as usual, without any shame, and even cursed a little, saying things like how damn cold he was.
Yin Muhong whispered: "Young Zai, there are some things here, please take a look at them."
Entering Fan Tower, in a private room, there were stacks of account books on the table. Yin Muhong held the account books and said: "Young Master, these forbidden army generals have confiscated a total of 80 million gold, silver, copper coins, and various fields.
, workshops, shops, carriages and horses running around in vain."
Yang Lin used to think that he was quite rich, but when he compared it with others, he realized that he was a real wealthy person.
These people may not have as much money as Yang Lin, but their assets are too great. A hundred years of exploitation and plundering, drinking the blood of hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops, have all been converted into their real estate.
Yang Lin's eyes lit up and he said: "There are 600,000 soldiers in the Beijing camp, which are completely useless. Our troops are stationed in Bianliang and cannot be transferred easily. No matter how powerful Bianliang is, it cannot support 700,000 soldiers."
horse.
Liu Yu from the Ministry of Revenue complained to me a few days ago. Why not just use the money and let the Imperial Guards dig canals? It took so long to get a straight canal, but it was delayed by Wanyan Xiyin's march south. Now,
It's time to reboot.
These 600,000 people are just a bunch of idiots in the war, and I will not deprive them of their food and wages like the generals of the Imperial Army when they go to dig rivers."
When Yin Muhong heard this, he realized that driving 600,000 people out of Bianliang was an idea that would kill two birds with one stone. Otherwise, these people would eat too much, and less than half of the grain transported by the Bianhe River would have to be spent on them. The key is to eat without drying up.
It's of no use at all.
When Yang Lin saw these forbidden troops now, he felt as if future generations of leaders saw the related households in the workshop who could only play with mobile phones and not work, and wished they could get out as soon as possible.
The two hit it off immediately, and immediately began to prepare for the transfer of the Imperial Army out of Beijing. Anyway, they had the final say in Bianliang now.
As Yang Lin expected, half of the scholar-bureaucrats who looked tough on the surface were killed, and the rest honestly looked like Yang Lin's direct descendants.
Occasionally, his cronies can put forward different political opinions and criticize Yang Lin's negligence and loopholes, but these people are extremely silent. Apart from scolding a few rebellious ministers and traitors behind their backs, they hardly dare to use disrespectful words in public. Only there.
In front of the familiar leader of the boat, he looked around and said something about Cao Cao with the help of wine.
People from the Duwei Mansion have already secretly investigated a lot of things, and after reporting them, Yang Lin just laughed and refused to pursue any further investigation. Then what kind of hero Cao Cao is, how can these mediocre people be able to criticize and evaluate him.
After all these people, the so-called Beijing Forbidden Army, who had relied on them, were driven to dig the river, Bianliang was surrounded by Yang Lin's troops.
Yin Muhong and Yang Lin looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes——
"How much?" Zhang An from the Hezhi Department was wrapped in a white cloth and had not yet recovered from his injury. He ignored the pain and sat up: "Fifty million guans?"
The visitor smiled and said: "Mingtang issued the decree last night, and there are still 600,000 young men for Governor Zhang to drive."
Soon after the construction of Zhang An's River Control Department started, the rebellion in the imperial court began.
The River Control Department was the first to bear the brunt, because this was the source of the conflict. Yang Lin's insistence on straightening the canal touched the interests of most scholar-bureaucrats, so they joined forces to take down Yang Lin.
As soon as the construction of the Zhizhi Canal started, it was shelved. Zhang An, who had nothing to do, had to dredge the sediment and start his old business of regulating the Yellow River.
At this time, Wanyan Xiyin went south, and Zhang An burst the embankment and flooded the camp. By coincidence, Lan Congxi was in peace talks with the Jurchens at that time.
Zhao Ji arrested Zhang An for sabotaging the peace talks, and the funds raised by Xiulou for the River Control Division were also taken by Liang Shicheng and others.
Zhang An originally thought that the straightening of the canal would be delayed for a long time, but he did not expect that so much money and manpower would come to him just a few days after he was released from prison.
As a result, the scale of this canal is no longer what was planned before.
Zhang An's injuries seemed to no longer hurt. After sitting up from the bed, he walked around excitedly.
The river courses in Hebei have been changed in a mess, and major events such as the Yellow River changing its course often occur. A heavy rain will be a disaster for the people of Hebei.
The number of people who die from this every year is in the tens of thousands. In the history of later generations, there will be many such consequences. For example, Damingfu was once completely submerged by the sediment of the Yellow River.
The Daming Palace of the Ming Dynasty had been rebuilt next to the old site. Now that he had the funds and manpower, Zhang An secretly vowed to manage the river channels and dig out canals to connect the north and south, so as to benefit his hometown for thousands of years.
From Yang Lin's point of view, digging the canal, activating the Hebei area, and no longer using the entire country to support the already bloated Bianliang and Kaifeng Prefecture can make the prosperity of the Song Dynasty truly spread to all territories, and can
Better activate Youyan's role as a Han family screen vassal.
Otherwise, the current situation in Hebei, with its desolation and poverty, would make it extremely easy for Youyan, who had gathered a large number of troops, to become a powerful vassal that broke away from the control of the imperial court.
The first year of Xuanhe has just begun, and things are finally moving in a good direction.
