For a period of time after that, Jia Cong did not encounter any trouble.
The expected gang thugs did not appear, the Rongguo Mansion was not affected by the court disputes, and he did not feel any pressure or anything like that.
Through the prince of Chu, Jia Cong knew that there was some trouble in the court.
Ever since Wang Ziteng started the counterattack mode, waves of attacks have come one after another, with no intention of stopping in a short period of time. Obviously, the gang of court bosses who are closely related to the Yangzhou salt merchants have no time to pay attention to a little guy like him.
Shrimp'.
In today's environment where the emperor and the emperor are at odds with each other, and all the big men in the court are unclean, it is too easy to find excuses to attack.
Not to mention, Wang Ziteng had the attitude of pretending to be real, and he had the idea to directly overturn the chain of interests woven by Yangzhou salt merchants, and replaced him with his officials.
This is quite annoying!
There was no other way. Wang Ziteng's behavior in order to achieve his goal set a very bad precedent.
As the influence of the novel "The Richest Man in the World" increases, as well as some of the impeachment content of Wang Ziteng, anyone who is not too stupid will understand that some of the content in this novel is quite detailed and credible, which gives other people
An opportunity for the big guys to intervene.
Not only did Wang Ziteng have ideas and actions, but the other jealous court bosses also made concessions, but their behavior was not as aggressive and explicit as Wang Ziteng's.
Of course, we can't blame Wang Ziteng for acting so violently. When he was impeached by the storm of memorials, many people speculated that this guy would be in trouble.
Since he is not unlucky at the moment, it is only natural that the officials who impeached Wang Ziteng will have to endure a sharp counterattack.
According to the introduction by the Crown Prince of Chu, Wang Ziteng's offensive in the court was quite fierce, and there were faint hints of other faction leaders adding fuel to the fire. The whole court was in chaos.
Since the court boss who was closely related to Yangzhou salt merchants couldn't escape, he naturally had no time to pay attention to Huiyou Bookstore and Jia Cong, a "miscellaneous fish" who wrote novels.
Jia Cong didn't feel dissatisfied at all about being ignored. He wished that those high-ranking court officials would really forget about him.
There is no pressure from the outside, the bookstore is still running as usual and the business is booming, and the storytelling of "The Richest Man in the World" is also steadily updated chapter by chapter every day.
The plot of the novel has reached the later stage of "Big Businessman and Rich Businessman". Liu Dafu, a pig-footed man, has formed a strong alliance of interests with the middle-level officials of the Yanzheng Yamen, and has begun to spread his tentacles in the officialdom outwards.
All the methods involved are nothing more than just throwing a lot of money at someone's liking.
That kind of heroic spirit of spending a lot of money will definitely shock the hearts of the audience and readers, and then give rise to all kinds of envy and jealousy emotions.
As long as the relationship between the Yanzheng Yamen and the Yanzheng Yamen in Yangzhou is settled, as well as the relationship between the prefect Yamen and the local garrison, selling official salt is really a good business to make money on your own.
During this period, various methods of new small salt merchants such as pig's feet began to be revealed, especially the methods of dealing with people in the government yamen, which also made people feel dazzled and envious.
After more than ten or twenty years of accumulation, Pig's Feet finally weaved a huge interest network with salt profit as the core. Pig's Feet also accumulated enough wealth and strength to become a big salt merchant in the Yangzhou Salt Merchant Association!
Although the various battles involved are not as direct and bloody as selling illegal salt, they are not lacking in cold cruelty at all.
The reason why Liu Dafu of Pig's Feet was able to rise up quickly and become a big salt merchant in the Yangzhou Salt Merchants Association was that several medium-sized salt merchants fell under Pig's Feet's conspiracy.
The description of years of wasted time, ruined and ruined, is also thrilling enough to make people think deeply.
In this process, Pig's Feet slowly evolved from a gang leader-like existence to an old fox who could quietly dig holes and kill people.
Jia Cong completely follows the writing method of modern online novels. Basically, there are five chapters for a small Gao Dynasty and ten chapters for a big Gao Dynasty. They are either scheming with the officials in the yamen or fighting with other salt merchants.
During this period, there were endless conspiracies and various underhanded schemes. In the end, Pig's Foot successfully achieved his goal and finally became a big salt merchant in Yangzhou step by step.
He was also fierce and did not shy away from openly exposing the various methods hidden in secret, especially the methods of collusion between government and businessmen, which once again caused a huge sensation among the audience and readers.
The people at the bottom can only watch the fun, and the most they can do is curse a few words, saying that collusion between government and business is not a thing.
But those who have some understanding of officialdom, or are people in officialdom themselves, will see full of 'reality'.
Many of the methods that appear in the novel often appear in real officialdom, and are more crude and simple than those in the novel.
This time, it really stirred up a hornet's nest!
The description in the novel almost covers all the official circles in Yangzhou, including the Yanzheng Yamen. As long as you investigate according to certain situations described in the novel, you can basically be sure that the investigation will be accurate, and you will definitely not unjustly accuse a good person.
If the court is really cruel, the current Yangzhou salt merchants and other stakeholders will be in serious trouble.
"Wang Ziteng went too far!"
As a result, Wang Ziteng took the blame again and suffered a joint attack from Yangzhou salt merchants' stakeholders, and the battle in the court became increasingly fierce.
However, at this time, it was simply unrealistic to get angry and take Prince Teng Yiboliu away. On the contrary, the parties involved in Yangzhou Salt Industry were in a very passive situation.
According to the joke of the prince of Chu, Wang Ziteng was very popular in the court, and obviously the big bosses of other factions also joined in, and they looked like they were going to take a big bite out of Yangzhou's salt industry.
"How much does Lin Ruhai know about the Yangzhou salt merchants?"
This time, Lin Ruhai, who had been trained as the Minister of Rites, could not escape the influence of the court battle. For a while, everyone was busy trying to find out how much the Yangzhou Salt Merchant knew about the existence of this censor who had been patrolling the salt for five years.
's secret.
Anyone who is interested in salt, or who wants to protect the interests of Yangzhou salt merchants, has a reason to win over Lin Ruhai. This person who was almost forgotten by everyone in the past half a year has suddenly become a favorite.
"Shilang Lin is quite smart!"
In the side hall of Huiyou Bookstore, Si Ding, the crown prince of Chu, said with a smile: "I was not dazzled by the sudden 'scenery'. I knew it was so powerful and just closed the door and thanked customers. I estimate that after this Yangzhou salt merchant crisis is over, there will definitely be good development!"
"
"Actually, it's better for Uncle Lin to stay in his current state!"
Jia Cong said disapprovingly: "At least, even if you are reused, you have to wait until your body and bones are fully healed!"
