There is only one thousand-household residence in Haining, and most of the military land has been occupied by the Lu family. Even those hundreds of households don't have a few acres of land left.
Military households in Haining either fled or engaged in smuggling with the Lu family.
The residents near Luyizhuang are all military households. Every household has a smuggler!
Wang Yuan divided his troops to guard Chen's house, Cha's house and Luya Street, and only took a hundred soldiers to Luyazhuang. As soon as he arrived here, he was surrounded by military households, including old, weak, women and children.
This is very interesting.
The Lu family obviously invaded military fields and even private fields of military households, and then forced these people to engage in smuggling. The Lu family should be their enemies, but when Wang Yuan led his troops, they actually stood up to protect Lu
Home.
Just because they had to beg for food from the Lu family, they would not be able to survive if the Lu family fell.
One hundred soldiers raised their blazing guns and aimed them at these poor unruly people.
Wang Yuan turned around and asked Cao Gui: "Zhi County Cao, do you think I dare to order the fire?"
Cao Gui was really afraid that Wang Yuan would have a seizure, so he quickly advised: "President Wang, these unruly people are stupid, you don't need to be like them."
Wang Yuan's face turned cold and he shouted: "Apply the medicine!"
Thousands of gun soldiers brought from the capital have been practicing these days. Although they cannot conduct live ammunition shooting due to the shortage of gunpowder, their discipline has been greatly improved.
After hearing Wang Yuan's order, a hundred soldiers moved in order, some drew their sabers on guard, and some quickly refilled their ammunition.
"Raise the gun!" Wang Yuan shouted again.
The gun was raised again, this time loaded with ammunition, and the soldiers subconsciously retreated.
Wang Yuan rode his tall horse and walked directly to the gate of the manor. Along the way, military households made way for him.
Looking up at the majestic main entrance of the manor, Wang Yuan sighed: "I thought that the gentry officials in Ningbo would be the first to cause trouble, but I didn't expect that it would be a small thousand households in Haining County. Damn it, this manor is probably bigger than mine."
The houses in Beijing are all big, and the thousands of Lu family members living in them will not be afraid of losing their lives! Just copy it, just by relying on this Zhuangzi, you can copy it without evidence, this is called a huge amount of property with unknown origin. "
"President Wang, please wait!"
Lu Ying from Qianhu in Haining came galloping on horseback.
This guy was also ruthless. He actually exposed his upper body and had thorns tied to his back. While the horse was running, his back was pricked by thorns and bleeding profusely, but Lu Ying didn't even frown.
Wang Yuan turned around and asked, "Who are you?"
Lu Ying dismounted from his horse and knelt down on one knee: "Lv Ying of Qianhu, the governor of Qianhu in Haining, pays homage to the governor!"
Wang Yuan immediately laughed: "You bear the thorn to apologize? You have read too many words."
Lu Ying said: "Being humble is a crime!"
"After what crime?" Wang Yuan asked.
Lu Ying said: "I was promoted from a humble position to a thousand households in Haining, but the control was not strict, which caused unruly people to attack the seaport and missed Wang Zongzhi's plan to open the sea!"
Wang Yuan asked: "Why did the unruly people attack the harbor?"
Lu Ying said: "The unruly people are stupid and stubborn. They may have mistakenly believed the rumors."
Wang Yuan pointed to the gate of the manor: "What's going on with you, Zhuangzi? How much is your annual salary?"
Lu Ying said with sweat on his forehead: "This house was built by my foolish brother who was doing business."
Lu Huan also came and kowtowed: "I, Lu Huan, the army guarding Qianhu in Haining, pay my respects to the governor!"
Wang Yuan glanced at Lu Huan: "It seems that you are a business genius. I heard that the entire Luya Street belongs to the Lu family?"
Lu Huan quickly said: "Half a street."
Wang Yuan looked embarrassed and muttered: "My governor has raided both the Chen and Cha families. We can't favor one over the other. I'll just let you, the Lu family, go. Or why not do it as well?"
Look, is this human language?
Lu Ying broke into cold sweat all over her body, and her limbs became weak with fear.
Why are those officials in Hangzhou so scared that they dare not speak?
Because Wang Yuan is unreasonable!
According to the normal procedure, even if someone makes trouble, it will only be arresting a few troublemakers. Next, we have to slowly interrogate and find evidence to find out the mastermind behind the scenes. However, no matter how the case is tried, Lu, Chen, and Cha will never be caught.
handle.
Therefore, these guys were so confident that they dared to confront the governor of a province.
Who would have thought that Wang Yuan would not play his cards according to the routine.
I didn't even bother to interrogate the troublemaker, and I didn't bother to look for any evidence. I just took Chen and investigated the two houses, and I wasn't afraid that I would raid the wrong person.
How can there be such an official in the whole world?
Lu Ying and all the officials in Zhejiang were completely frightened by Wang Yuan. They finally understood that Governor Wang had something wrong with his mind. He was a mad dog that bit anyone who caught him. They could not be treated with common sense. What if they messed with this mad dog?
If you are anxious, you are likely to bite randomly when you see someone, so you will retreat and dodge.
But Lu Ying had no choice but to retreat because Wang Yuan led his troops to raid his ancestral home.
This time, I have to spend a lot of money.
Chief Lu Yingji knelt down with his butt raised high. This posture represented complete submission. His forehead hit the ground for a while, and Lu Ying finally raised his head: "President Wang, can you lend me a moment to speak?"
"Let's go." Wang Yuan sneered.
Lu Ying carried the bloody thorns on her back, bowed and led Wang Yuan's horse, and entered through the gate of the manor.
After entering, Wang Yuan suddenly said: "If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't delay."
Lu Ying had no choice but to retreat and whispered: "President Wang, five thousand taels of silver."
"Are you bribing the governor?" Wang Yuan sneered.
"Ten thousand taels!" Lu Ying said through gritted teeth.
Wang Yuan smiled even more happily: "Thousands of you are very rich."
Lu Ying said with a mournful face: "Thirty thousand taels! The king's system can't be more, that's all for the humble positions."
Wang Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked at this person: "I heard that there are thieves in Haining. Does Lu Qianhu know the details?"
"Maybe, maybe." Lu Ying said bravely.
Wang Yuan sighed: "Lu Qianhu, I know it's not easy for you, but who in the world has it easy? The emperor wants to open the sea, and the officials in the court can't stop it, and I really can't stop it. I came to Hangzhou on the emperor's order.
The local gentry and officials are opposed to the opening of the sea, and you and other military attachés are also coming to make trouble. Who can I tell the pain in my heart to?"
Lu Ying knelt down and said: "I will definitely try my best to help Mr. Wang open the sea!"
Wang Yuan nodded in approval and said: "Very good, get up."
Lu Ying was desperate. Hangzhou officials sold him, so he could only survive and cling to Wang Yuan. Maybe he could also get rich!
Hearing Wang Yuan's gentle tone, Lu Ying was overjoyed and stood in front of the horse with a smile, looking up at the governor.
Wang Yuan added: "Although I am a civil servant, I am a man who seeks thieves to destroy the country and kills him with one knife and one blow. In fact, my heart is more towards our generals. We cannot urinate in the same pot as those cowardly and greedy civil servants."
These words made Lu Yingdun feel close to him, and he felt that Governor Wang was much more honest than those civil servants.
Wang Yuan said again: "In order to open the sea, I went to Shuangyu Island alone for a meeting a few days ago and persuaded Chen Dana to submit."
Lu Ying was shocked: "Chen Shuangxi has been recruited?"
Wang Yuan nodded and said: "Chen Shuangxi is still very obedient. He promised to donate ten sea-going ships and kept only two for himself. He said he wanted to seek a military position and was eyeing the position of Qianhu in Haining. Those were ten sea-going ships.
Ship, I find it difficult to refuse, so I can only ask Lu Qianhu to give up my seat."
Lu Ying suddenly fell into an ice cave. That bastard Chen Shuangxi actually wanted to exchange ten sea ships for the position of Haining Qianhu. No wonder Governor Wang is so arrogant. He had already planned to take advantage of the opportunity to uproot his Lu family.
rise!
Lu Ying knelt down again, kowtowed repeatedly and said: "President Wang, I am willing to sell my property and donate 50,000 taels of silver to the imperial court!"
Wang Yuan shook his head and said: "I don't want money, I just want ships."
Lu Ying begged: "The king is in charge. I really don't have a sea ship in my humble position. I just turn a blind eye and accept some filial piety from pirates."
Wang Yuan immediately turned cold: "For a few filial piety, you can buy such a large property. Lvya Street, which runs through Haining County, and your family only occupies half of the street? Is it easy to fool you when you are the governor? How many are there?
I want all the ships, and I won’t take any of the other money from you.”
Lu Ying sat slumped on the ground, his eyes dull, and he was dumbfounded for a long time: "I only have two sea ships in this humble position."
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "I also want the sailors on the ship. When the time comes, I will know if you have anything to hide."
Lu Ying was completely paralyzed: "Three ships are really gone."
"Without any further delay, let's hand over the boat today." Wang Yuan pressed.
Chen, check the two companies that supply goods to Lu Ying. Lu Qianhu himself ended up working as a maritime merchant.
Moreover, the Lu family has just finished repairing three sea-going ships and they are now docked. They are just waiting for the goods to be ready before going out to sea. It is the most convenient to go to sea at this time. They will arrive in Japan in about half a month and spend some time selling the goods to Japan.
Merchants can take advantage of the monsoon to return home immediately after receiving goods for shipment in Japan.
Now it's all cheaper for Wang Yuan, the ship doesn't need to be repaired, and a cargo of goods has even been delivered to the shore.
Wang Yuan called Qianhu Manzheng and asked him to take three hundred Zhejiang soldiers to the Lu family's private port to collect the ship.
"This is it." Lu Ying said dejectedly, pointing to the three ships on the beach.
Alas, let's waste money and eliminate disaster.
As long as I can keep my job as a Qianhu household in Haining, I can make a living by selling private salt, and one day I can spend money to buy a ship in Fujian.
Lu Ying has no other ideas now, he just wants to keep his hereditary military position.
No, we can't live in this way, we must work hard and fight hard. Lu Ying gritted his teeth and said: "President Wang has worked hard to open the sea, and I admire him very much for his humble position. There are ten shops in Haining County, two hundred acres of land outside Haining City, and five thousand dollars in silver."
Two, I would like to offer them to Mr. Wang!"
This guy wants to hug Wang Yuan's thigh and continue to climb up!
Wang Yuan watched the three sea-going ships being received and suddenly shouted angrily: "What a Lu Ying. Not only did he use his power for personal gain, he secretly colluded with the Japanese pirates, and he even dared to bribe the governor! There are three sea-going ships, and the cargo of one ship is on the shore. The evidence is conclusive.
You can still make excuses!"
"Ah?" Lu Ying was a little confused.
"Qiang!"
A flash of sword light flashed, and Lu Ying's head fell to the ground.
When all the servants were restrained, Wang Yuan shouted: "Lu Ying colluded with the Japanese pirates, hid the ship secretly, and tried to arrest him. He was executed by the governor. Where are the thousands of households?"
Manzheng immediately ran over and knelt down on one knee: "I'm here!"
Wang Yuan said: "If you praise the post of Haining Qianhu, go and gather Lu Ying's subordinates immediately."
"I humbly accept my order!" Manzheng was overjoyed.
Although they are all thousands of households, Haining's thousand households are worth much more.
