Chapter 59: After Tonight, There Will Be No More Emperors
night
There was silence
In this silent night, there were several bloody killings that terrified the Jin merchants.
The Eight Great Imperial Merchants were the most outstanding representatives of the Jin Merchants, and as soon as they died, the dragons were leaderless, and nearly 30 suppliers who were close to them were wiped out overnight.
Were they unjustly killed?
Of course, they are not wronged, but the poor people must have something to hate.
These merchants knew that they were supplying the Eastern Kidnapper, and they were all willing to cooperate with the Eight Great Emperor Merchants.
There is no difference between doing this kind of thing and betraying the country, and for many years in exile, he has been eyeing the Ming Dynasty.
Not only often enter the customs to rob, but also rob the population, the entire Liaodong has been occupied by them, don't these merchants know?
If it weren't for their support for the Eastern Captivity, the Eastern Captives would not have enough to eat, and they would not have the strength to fight.
Five hundred brocade guards, under the leadership of Qinglong, not only confiscated those Jin merchants, but also wiped out the local garrison generals.
When Qinglong and the others stood in front of the prison army and the general soldiers, their good days came to an end.
It's not that they don't resist, by the time the soldiers find out, they're already corpses, and there are only sporadic battles.
The soldiers who dared to fight with Qinglong were all cronies of the garrison generals, but in the dark night, they were all easily killed by Jinyiwei.
Not all soldiers have the same conscience as their bosses, and one of the deputy generals named Chen Yuan is an honest and loyal Ming soldier.
After knowing that the people who came were all the commanders of the Ming Jinyi Guard, he led more than 3,000 soldiers under his command and bowed down in front of Qinglong.
Although Qinglong is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he is on behalf of the emperor, and many things can be decided directly.
Chen Yuan, as a matter of course, became the supreme commander of the Ming garrison.
Since then, Qinglong has received strong support from the local garrison.
Those officials who colluded with the Jin merchants were of course not immune.
If they dare to collude with foreign enemies and betray the country, and if they dare to make a fortune in the country, they should be ready to be destroyed at any time.
Many officials had not yet woken up from their dreams, and a cold embroidered spring knife was already on their necks, and then the whole family was killed.
In three days, with the help of Chen Yuan's troops, almost all the officials and businessmen in Zhangjiakou who had colluded with the Eastern Kidnapping were purged.
500,000 taels of gold and 13,000,000 taels of silver were confiscated, as well as countless fields and shops, and minerals.
For Chen Yuanhe's loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, Qinglong was in charge, and directly transferred three million taels of silver to him as a military salary.
As a result, these soldiers who had not received their salaries for a long time all fell to their knees with tears streaming down their faces, shouting long live in the direction of the Beijing Division.
As for the remnants of the Liukou leading troops to support, it is also impossible, the head of the general soldier surnamed Jiang in Shanxi has long been taken away by Cao Zhengchun, and the interior is in chaos.
In the local garrison military tent, Qinglong and Chen Yuan were discussing the issue of silver, there was too much silver, and if it was transported back to Jingshi, it would not be safe on the way.
In the end, Qinglong decided to transport all the gold and silver to Fan's house, and Chen Yuan moved the garrison headquarters to Fan's house.
Their main task now is to secure the safety of the silver, and other things are put aside for the time being, and after Qinglong returns to the capital to ask the emperor, they are making plans.
The bloody storm has passed, and after the local people learned that the families that were wiped out were all merchants who had colluded with the Eastern captivity, the people gradually freed themselves from their fear.
Zhangjiakou once again regained its prosperity, but many people found that the doors of the shops that originally belonged to those profiteers were locked, and people talked about it for a while.
"Look at these shops, this one belongs to the Fan family, and that one belongs to the Wang family's ......."
"It's good now, they're all dead, and I don't know if the price of food raised by them will fall."
……
On a bustling street, a five-story building is particularly eye-catching, not only the decoration is splendid, but the girls who come and go inside are even more beautiful.
If anyone pays attention, you will notice that the customers here are mainly male.
If you look closely, you will notice that there is a large golden plaque hanging directly in the middle of the door of the storey building.
On the plaque there are three large gold letters.
"Xiuchun Building"
This is the most famous and high-grade Fengyue place in Zhangjiakou, which is the place where Chunhong and they work (Xiuchun Building)
It is worthy of being the place where the Jin merchants made their fortunes, people come and go, Xiuchun Building is overcrowded, and the ordinary people can't fill their stomachs, so of course they don't come here to consume.
The guests who can come here are either dignitaries or wealthy businessmen and their children.
Facing such powerful and rich customers all day long, the boss of Xiuchun Building will definitely not be an ordinary person, otherwise there will be no scum left that has been eaten by those people.
A Xiuchun Building, an annual income of one million is not a dream, who makes the rich and powerful like this.
the other day
In order to greet other imperial merchants, Fan Yongdou took eight golden flowers from Xiuchun Tower, and the remuneration for one day was three hundred taels of silver.
Don't underestimate three hundred taels of silver, ordinary people can't earn half a lifetime, but they consume it in a day.
"Xiao Chunhong, sister, please see Wang Gongzi, you haven't seen guests for three days, but people have said that fifty taels of silver a day."
"No, didn't I say that someone will come to pick me up in the next two days, and I will definitely not give you less silver when I pour."
In a luxurious large room, the eldest sister of Xiuchunlou was struggling to persuade Chunhong to meet the guests.
But Chunhong said that she wouldn't do anything, she was waiting for Qinglong to redeem her.
Three days passed, and the boss was already impatient to wait, which made him earn a lot less money.
Chunhong is also very anxious, it stands to reason that if the adults hadn't forgotten, they should have come a long time ago.
He hasn't come yet, has he forgotten his promise to Chunhong?
The eldest sister repeatedly persuaded to no avail, so she could only leave in a huff.
Later, Ma Quan, the owner of Xiuchun Building, took a young man to Chunhong's room in person, and when he saw the boss coming, Chunhong panicked.
Don't look at Ma Quan's appearance is not very good, and there are still some problems with his legs, but this person's methods are not simple.
Chunhong knows very well how powerful the boss is, once a sister was reluctant to see guests, and was later thrown downstairs to death by the boss.
Chunhong is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing.
Although she is not the most beautiful girl in Xiuchunlou, she is the person who is named the most.
Seeing the boss come in, Chunhong hurriedly got up and poured him a cup of tea:
"Boss, why are you here, please have tea."
"Tea? Don't you want to buy tea with silver? Chunhong heard that you didn't see guests for three days, do you know the consequences of doing so?
The item Xiuchun Building will not raise you in vain, and you will see it if you don't see it today, otherwise the consequences will be very serious. ”
"Wang Gongzi, you are free, I will go back first, if she is disobedient, you can dispose of it."
The boss said, glared at Chunhong fiercely, turned around and walked out of the room.
The prince who had just come was not tall in stature, almost all of them had grown into a round shape, and they were completely horizontally.
After the boss finished speaking and left, he walked to Chunhong's side with a hippie smile, and put his hands on Chunhong's fragrant shoulders.
"Xiao Chunhong, I've heard of the big name for a long time, my son has been waiting for you for three days, and today I finally met fate, it's an honor, I like a girl with a character like you."
Chunhong looked at him coldly, and shook off his dirty hands with a look of disgust:
"Prince Wang, there are so many girls in Xiuchunlou, why do you have to pester Chunhong, now that you have seen someone, please go back."
