Chapter 0401 Zhu Neng stabbed the hornet's nest(1/2)

From then on, whenever the grandfather and grandson met and talked about Li Di, they would treat Li Di as a joke.

Little did Li Di know that he had become the laughing stock of an unscrupulous grandson.

Kou Zhun rested in his house for one night and was carried into the palace the next day.

Kou Ji has been staying at the house.

After Chunwei's imperial list was posted, for nearly half a month, new scholars visited their mentor.

Make a home visit within the first three days.

That is to say, you have to be a disciple under the examiner.

If you visit someone after the first three days, it is purely out of courtesy.

Kou Ji recruited more than fifty disciples under his first ranking.

Li Di collected more.

On the contrary, Ma Yuanfang, who has been out of officialdom for a long time, has recruited the fewest disciples.

After Kou Ji had been busy for half a month, fewer people came to visit him, and he started to get busy with other things.

For example, the Ministry of Industry encountered obstacles when promoting new equipment.

As well as the warehouse problem of depositing money in Yizijiaozi Shop.

The obstacles encountered by the Ministry of Industry when promoting new equipment all belong to the government. If Kou Ji cannot handle them, they can be thrown into the palace and handed over to Kou Zhun and others.

It is relatively simple to handle.

But the warehouse problem of Yizijiaozipu is more troublesome to deal with.

As Yizijiaozi Shop continues to develop, the money saved in the shop increases day by day.

The dozen or so warehouses rented from the Fengzhuang warehouse are not enough for Yizijiaozi shop to store money.

Kou Ji must build a new warehouse for Yizijiaozipu.

A newly built warehouse must not only meet the most basic security requirements against theft, but must also prevent many people from knowing about it.

Kou Ji originally thought of setting up three warehouses, one in Jiangning Prefecture, one in Bianjing City, and one in Sichuan Prefecture, to store the money saved by Yizijiaozipu in three places to avoid being wiped out by others.

But after careful consideration, I felt it was inappropriate.

Saving money in three places will certainly help you avoid being noticed.

But the safety factor is not high.

Corruption among the managers of the three warehouses is difficult to avoid.

It is also difficult to allocate the manpower to guard the warehouse.

If there is a rebellion, or if some people in charge of the army want to take it by force, it will be difficult for Kou Ji to take care of it.

So Kou Ji finally decided to set up two warehouses, but the locations of the two warehouses were located in Bianjing City and Leizhou respectively.

One inside and one outside, radiating across the country.

It goes without saying that a warehouse must be set up in Bianjing City.

At any time, as long as Yizijiaozipu wants to develop, it must set up a warehouse in Bianjing City.

One is to facilitate the development of Yizijiaozipu.

Secondly, it is also to be able to come up with enough money at any time to cope with the changes that may happen to Yizijiaozipu at any time.

Another warehouse was chosen to be located in Leizhou, which means there is great meaning in it.

Leizhou is adjacent to the sea.

He was not taken seriously by the princes in the court, so he was always in a state of semi-development.

There are very few people in Leizhou, and there are many places where there is no human habitation for tens of miles.

There are often rogues and bandits.

The above three points are the reasons why Kou Ji values ​​Leizhou.

Kou Ji could send a group of people there and secretly build warehouses in Leizhou under the pretext of helping Kou Li develop Leizhou and make contributions.

During the day, they were laborers building warehouses.

At night, they can be any bandit in Leizhou and wipe out the local rogues and fierce bandits in Leizhou.

Then after the warehouse was built, he stayed in Leizhou in the name of a rogue and a fierce bandit.

He is called a bandit, but he is actually a tough soldier.

Based on the attitude of the princes in the imperial court towards Leizhou, as long as those fierce soldiers did not make any shocking noise in Leizhou, the imperial court would not care about them at all.

Even if someone reveals that the imperial court wants to destroy them, they can escape into the sea overnight and become invisible.

Of course, Kou Ji's warehouse in Leizhou was also a temporary warehouse.

But how long this warehouse will exist depends on when Kou Ji enters the inner court.

It will always exist before Koji enters the inner court.

As long as Kou Ji did not enter the inner court and handed over the money to Zipu, there was a danger of being robbed and used.

The money from Yizijiaozipu was robbed, but it actually didn't matter.

But as a result, Yizijiaozi Shop lost its credibility and caused a wave of bank runs.

That's a disaster.

A disaster that could shake the Song Dynasty.

Kou Ji had an idea in his mind, so he secretly sent Kou Zhong to Baozhou and recruited a group of people to do this.

While Kou Ji was busy working on Yizijiaozi Shop, the imperial court was not idle either.

After spring.

After another two months of tossing, the matter of turning the ban into national law and abolishing officials sitting in sedan chairs finally came to an end.

Kou Zhun and the others were extremely tough on turning the ban into national law.

Several confidential laws were officially written into the laws of the Song Dynasty under the tough attitude of Kou and Zhun.

The punishment for those who break the law is far more severe than the punishments reported before.

Anyone who leaks secrets will be killed without exception.

At worst, it can only behead the evildoer, but at worst, it can implicate three clans and cause disaster for three generations.

After several laws were promulgated, the whole country was in an uproar.

Civil servants and scholars rushed to Bianjing like crazy, hoping to use their efforts to get the court to abolish these laws.

Kou Zhun and the other three did not allow them to continue causing trouble.

After hundreds of bloody heads were hung at the market entrance at the west city gate, no one made a fuss about this incident again.

Those civil servants and scholars still want to guide the people to cause trouble behind their backs.

But Kou Zhun and the other three took the lead and dispatched soldiers from the post station to run around every corner of the Song Dynasty with copies of several laws and regulations, telling the world word for word the new laws and regulations set by the court.

All the people.

Those civil servants and scholars had just finished confusing the people, but before the people could cause trouble, the rumors were self-defeating.

The decree implemented by the imperial court this time did not touch anyone's interests.

It only caused obstacles for civil servants and scholars to write books and establish theories.

Civil servants and scholars relied on rumors to incite the people to cause trouble, but when the court announced the truth of the matter to the world, the people naturally would not blindly follow it.

The imperial court killed another group of people as a warning.

Naturally, those civil servants and scholars could not continue to cause trouble.

They can't use the secrets of the imperial court to write books and make a name for themselves. It just lacks a way to become famous. They don't have to risk their lives to go against the imperial court.

But they were still unhappy in their hearts, and secretly made things difficult for Kou Zhun and the others.

At this time, Kou Zhun and the others issued a decree approving the abolition of sedan chairs, and only then did civil servants and scholars wave the flag.

In their eyes, the reason why Kou Zhun and the others agreed to abolish the sedan chair was that they were submissive to them.

Give them the steps.

They walked down the stairs naturally.

After the two troublesome matters were dealt with, it was already May.

The whole court and the public were silent.

Just when everyone thought they could relax for a few days.

Zhu Neng's memorial caused an uproar.

"I am asking the imperial court to depose the general as a supervisor and hand over the power of forging ordnance to the Ministry of Works..."
