Wang Shu had been staying in Nanzhili, and Yan Chengjin asked, "Who does the prince guess?" ”

"The old man doesn't know."

The old man knows what else to ask you to do! Wang Shu's face was serious.

"If there is no conclusive evidence, how can this official investigate? Go back, the Maharaja. ”

There are only people in Jiangnan who need firearms, only King Ning, and others are full to buy firearms? Yan Chengjin guessed that it was him.

Four years ago, I knew that King Ning would rebel one day, why didn't the official arrest him?

It's like knowing that someone is going to commit a crime, but he doesn't do it, you can't put him in the prison first.

Therefore, it is useless for the king to expose him more and more.

Wang Shu stroked his beard: "Do you know, why did the old man recognize your sedan chair?"

The old man entered Beijing on purpose. ”

Yan Chengjin looked at Wang Shu and could be sure that this old man should have entered Beijing to find him.

Otherwise, how could he recognize his palanquin when they first met him on the street?

Wang Shu must have investigated him, and as a veteran of the Four Dynasties, it is not surprising that he has a protégé in the capital.

"The prince might as well say it directly?"

"There will be chaos in the southeast and the introspection.

It is rumored that silver is going to depreciate, and with the circulation of Hongzhi silver tickets, salt merchants in the southeast have begun to hoard salt in large quantities.

Salt merchants stop supplying salt to the inland provinces, and the people have no salt to eat, and the price of salt in the interior will rise again. ”

Wang Shu was serious: "These are all rumors of the depreciation of silver. ”

Salt citation is a certificate issued by the imperial court, and salt can only be sold if there is salt citation.

This determines that there is a certain amount of salt in the market.

The merchant was afraid that the silver in his hand would depreciate, so he changed it to salt in order to preserve its value and even make money.

It's like he exchanged all the silver for mansions and fields, a truth.

Yan Chengjin frowned: "The court did not report it." ”

"The newspaper will soon enter Beijing!" An unquestionable gaze flashed in Wang Shu's eyes.

Yan Chengjin looked at Wang Shu with vigilance, Wang Shu has impeached countless officials, and if he can live to this day, there must be a city government.

"Why did the prince want to find this official?"

"This official sees that you are sincere."

……

Dongnuan Pavilion,

It was cold, Xiao Jing carefully put a thin jacket on the knee of Emperor Hongzhi, and His Majesty was reluctant to burn the earth dragon when he was alone in the warm pavilion.

"Your Majesty, just now Wang Shu and the crown prince went to the Yan Mansion."

Emperor Hongzhi was slightly stunned and turned his head to look at Xiao Jing.

Xiao Jing swallowed: "The two of them also demolished the door of Yan's mansion, and Yan Chengjin said that he wanted the palace to pay for the silver......"

Just break into the official house, and unload other people's doors? Emperor Hongzhi was frozen on the throne, Master Wang was of good character, how could he do such a thing, instigated by the prince?

"Master Wang just scolded Yan Chengjin yesterday, what are you going to do in Yan's Mansion?"

"The slave doesn't know, the prince seems to have something important, and he wants to see Yan Chengjin, so he unloaded the door." Xiao Jing said.

When he was in the Yingzong Dynasty, he knew Wang Shu, and at that time, he was still a little eunuch who was the master of ceremonies.

But after the Yingzong, Daizong and Xianzong dynasties, he worked with Wang Shu.

With his understanding of Wang Shu, he was afraid that he would go to see Yan Chengjin because of something.

At this time, the cabinet was on duty.

Liu Jian opened the sparse music transmitted from Songjiang Mansion, and his pupils suddenly shrank: "There is a big event in the southeast." ”

It is rare to see Liu Gong so gaffe, Li Dongyang came over and saw Shu Yue:

The profiteers in the coastal provinces begged for 170,000 yuan for the old long reed, and each silver was five cents for each introduction, and bought the surplus salt from each field, and the land of the two Huai was brought to 1.5 million yuan, and the salt law was very bad......

Xie Qian frowned: "According to the report from Shaanxi and Yungui, the salt has risen to five hundred per year, and the people have no salt to eat. ”

Liu Jian and Li Dongyang were stunned, two things, but in fact one thing.

Salt merchants in the southeast undermined the salt law, which led to a sharp increase in the price of salt in various parts of the province.

How could this suddenly be so?

Soon, the three of them came to the East Warm Pavilion with a sparse music.

After Emperor Hongzhi read the two books, he was furious: "Profiteers are rampant in the rivers and lakes, and officials in the southeast provinces ignore them. ”

But after gradually calming down, I felt a little strange.

"Summoning the household...... No, summon Jiuqing. ”

Not long after, Yan Chengjin came to the palace with the little eunuch.

Hearing that the salt law was bad, the salt merchants on the southeast coast begged for salt, but did not sell salt.

The people of the inland provinces have no salt to eat, and the price of coarse salt has risen as fast as refined salt, which is more exaggerated than stocks.

It's the same as Wang Shu said.

Baqing's brows were furrowed, but Yan Chengjin's face was as usual, and Emperor Hongzhi looked at Yan Chengjin: "The Economic Department of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is there a way to supervise it?" ”

Of course, there is a way, that is, the imperial court will sell salt uniformly and will not allow private individuals to sell it.

In this way, the price of salt is the same everywhere in the world, regardless of whether it is coastal or inland.

There will be no fluctuations in salt prices due to economic factors.

However, this is tantamount to cutting the arteries of the gentry and officials.

The gentry and officials asked the court for begging for salt and sold it in various places, making a lot of money.

The salt is gone, and the jobs of the gentry and officials are also smashed, which is ten times and a hundred times more ruthless than the implementation of the world to spread the land into the mu.

Whoever says who is a fool.

Yan Chengjin bowed slightly: "The minister has to think carefully." ”

Li Dongyang sighed: "This is because there are too many begging salts." In the past, Taizu's treasure banknotes were circulated, so they were cheap and expensive, and the transaction was very convenient.

Now that the new tickets have been used, the slightly timid gentry dare not use them, which has caused prices to skyrocket. ”

Yan Chengjin raised his head slightly, Li Dongyang's words, he could only agree halfway.

The Daming treasure banknote was used by Zhu Yuanzhang to force hundreds of officials and gentry.

Otherwise, it can be circulated? Which gentry was willing to exchange white silver for paper?

Outside the palace gate, the cabinet of Hanlin sent a few more books, and Emperor Hongzhi opened them and looked at them, his brows became more and more wrinkled.

"Zhenjiang and Puzhou and other prefectures have sent back sparse music, and the price of salt has increased by as much as five times."

The princes were in an uproar.

Emperor Hongzhi stood up anxiously, and it was understandable that he could sell salt if he had a salt lead.

Hubu Hanwen looked at Yan Chengjin and said regretfully: "New tickets should not be circulated!" ”

Xiong and the others nodded in agreement.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Yan Chengjin, if I blame him, I'm afraid this son will be more cautious in the future, right?

Speaking of which, I am also at fault for this, if I had not agreed to circulate the Hongji Silver Ticket......

For half an hour, no result was discussed.

After getting off duty, Yan Chengjin sat in a sedan chair at the noon gate and instructed He Neng: "Go to Duke Li's mansion." ”

Abolishing the introduction of salt and changing it to a unified sale by the imperial court will inevitably arouse the opposition of hundreds of officials and gentry all over the world.

He who can't be a counselor will die.

How can he be embarrassed: "Young master, you don't know yet, right?" Master Li ordered that you would not be allowed to step into the Li Mansion. ”

"When?"

"The day before yesterday, the little one didn't dare tell you."

Li Fu,

Soon after Li Dongyang returned to the house, he changed into a blue and white Confucian dress and read a book in the main hall.

Menzi reported worriedly: "Master, Lord Yan is here." ”

Although the old man did not see him, Yan Chengjin was a minister of the DPRK and China.

"Let him get away, the old man doesn't want to see him in his life."

Menzi looked embarrassed: "Lord Yan also said that he has a solution to the salt law, but he doesn't dare to advise His Majesty the Emperor. ”

Li Dongyang raised his head slightly, his eyes flickered, and he hesitated for a long time before saying, "Let him come in." ”
