XVI. Harvest

Shen Wansan stepped on his excited steps, holding the wooden box containing the account book, and trotted to the private room on the second floor, where Zhu Wu was.

But as soon as he arrived at the door, he was stopped by two guards.

Someone in there? Shen Wansan smiled flatteringly at the guard, stepped aside again, and waited quietly.

His experience as a heirloom of the Shen family, being a man and a businessman, he has to know what his identity is and what kind of eyes he looks at.

In the house, there was no one else, Zhu Wu was sitting, and the head of the Chen family in Quanzhou was standing, although he was standing, his waist was almost bent into a bow.

"Now Quanzhou is all the world." The head of the Chen family looked at Zhu Wu's face, bent down and smiled, "For hundreds of years, whether it is blonde or full of fox smell, the Tibetan people have made their homes in Quanzhou, they are rich, and the court treats them better than us Han people, and after a long time, we will not be able to speak!" ”

"The Fan people live in Quanzhou, and they all live in the Fan people's workshop, and they don't live with us. When you don't deal with the government, you don't speak our language. The head of the Chen family continued.

"I know all of this, tell me something I don't know!" Zhu Wu held his chin and said, "Just those Hu soldiers?" ”

"It's not been a peaceful year." The head of the Chen family continued, "Actually, it's not that these years have not been peaceful, since there was Dayuan, we are not very peaceful, every year there are countrymen carrying hoes, killing officials.... Uprising. The year before last, Xianyou's rebel army all fought outside Quanzhou City. ”

"The uprising, one is to resist taxes, and the other is that the people are not convinced. It's obviously a place handed down by our ancestors, why are the people of Tibet in charge now? The head of the Chen family paused, "The imperial court still helps them, not us." These Tibetan people bought off the officials of the imperial court and began to recruit troops, and we can't say what kind of alliance they secretly became..... Anyway, it is the cost of all the troops, and they share it equally with these merchants, and use these Hu soldiers to protect them. ”

This is similar to what he knows, Zhu Wu nodded. The armed forces of the Tibetan people have outperformed the armed forces of the local Yuan court in Quanzhou, and even sometimes suppressed the uprisings of the common people, and these Tibetan people were used.

"Fanren?" Zhu Wu smiled, this is not a good name, this is a title that despises others in his heart, "Let's call them Fanren, what do Fanren call us?" ”

The Chen family master's face stiffened, and he bowed his head and said, "Fan people! ”

Ka, the joints on Zhu Wu's hands rang straight.

For thousands of years, we have only called you the land of the Tibetan people, and now you dare to call us the Tibetan people?

"Sometimes, they will call us Min barbarians!"

"Huh!" Zhu Wu suddenly laughed, "Hehe, haha!" ”

Then, looking at the head of the Chen family, "It's not good to be bullied, right?" ”

"King Han!" The head of the Chen family suddenly knelt down and said, "We have been bullied by them, not to mention that the business has been robbed, and the yamen is also full of their locals, and it is still their locals who collect taxes!" As he spoke, a different look radiated from his eyes, "Are you going to send troops?" If you send troops, the villain will contact the 36 Han merchants in Fujian and ask for money and grain. I just ask you, King Han, to help the Han people in Fujian get out of this hundred years of evil spirit! ”

After that, I couldn't cry anymore.

"You don't have your own arms?" Zhu Wu opened his mouth and said slowly.

The head of the Chen family raised his head, "The government won't let it!" Not to mention arming, put more bows, arrows, knives and guns on the sea ship, you will be troubled by the tax collectors of the Tibetan people! ”

"I'll give you people!" Zhu Wu looked at him appendedly, "I'll give you a thousand people, and I'll go back to Quanzhou with you." In batches, I said that I was a buddy of your Chen family, a tenant. These people don't need to be raised by you, they can be regarded as ambushes in Quanzhou, do you understand? ”

"The villain understands, the villain understands!" Generations of wealthy businessmen have a seven-trick exquisite heart, Zhu Wuhua has come to this point, how can he not understand. Rich and dangerous, these merchants have been bullied by the Tibetan people for too long, and now they can catch the line of the Han King, what else can they not get out of.

Waving his hand to let Zhu Yu take the head of the Chen family down, Zhu Wu began to ponder.

Occupying Quanzhou Port can not only obtain a lot of wealth, but also Quanzhou, the world's largest port, can also bring endless wealth to itself. Even in the future, Quanzhou can be used as a military port, and the sailors set off from Quanzhou and went straight to Liangguang and other places.

"Dad, Shen Wansan is here!" Zhu Yu whispered outside.

Zhu Wu nodded, "Call!" ”

In an instant, Shen Wansan came in with a smile in his hand, and his posture was very low.

"King Tohan's Hongfu, the proceeds of this auction are equivalent to 17 million silver dollars."

Huge sums of money, huge sums of money that rival the richest countries. Meng Yuan's fiscal tax revenue is only how much a year, and Zhu Wu's side collected so much just by auction. Even if he has seen a lot of gold and silver mountains, Zhu Wu can't help but be a little moved at this time.

Although the main mirror must be made by several companies, it also proves that these businessmen are really fucking rich. In the future, I still want the old man to get more good things out, and there will be a few auctions like this, won't the money for military expenses and sailors come out?

"Traditionally, you're going to take a 10% commission, right?" Zhu Wu looked through the account book and asked casually.

Shen Wansan thought about it and said with a smile, "That's someone else, King Han, you don't want to smoke it." The bank is yours anyway! ”

"Rules are rules, and they can't be abolished." Zhu Wu put down the account book, "You should draw it, and you have to calculate it clearly in the account." Saying that, he paused, "In a while, I will ask someone to inform Li Shanchang to come and reconcile with you, you will give 11 million to the household department, and the rest will be given to the Ministry of Industry." ”

"I understand it below!" Shen Wan had a bitter color on his face, others were fine, he was really a little scared of Li Shanchang, that old man, the abacus can make flowers, and he can't miss a copper coin.

"You go and call those businessmen from Shanxi, I have something to ask." Zhu Wu commanded again.

"Yes!" Shen Wansan bowed and went out.

Zhu Wu gently patted the armrest of the chair, north? Shanxi? The blue-clothed man has a lot to offer.

Through these merchants, their own silver bullet offensive can hit the heartland of Meng Yuan. The magistrate over there doesn't have so much oil and water in Jiangnan, I heard that he is very greedy!

Thinking about it, my thoughts drifted away again. Where are they now? What's going on over there with Zhu Chongba?

~~~~

The army marched silently on the road, and the cavalry was crisscrossing and crisscrossing the wilderness, constantly scouting the horses, and passing the news of the reconnaissance to the ears of Zhu Chongba as the Chinese army advanced.

"Chief Administrator, I met a few people who fled in front of me!" A cavalryman with a mouth and nose full of frost, came back to report.

"Bring it here!" Zhu Chongba frowned.

There are too many people in the places where they have fled along the way, both rich and poor are fleeing, and the soldiers and horses of the Yuan army are really going all the way to the scourge, and they are more bandits than bandits.

"Master Jun spares his life, we are all ordinary people, and there is nothing valuable!"

After a while, several fleeing civilians were brought over. Looking at the strict army, the soldiers looked at them with terrible eyes. The fleeing people had weak legs and practiced begging for mercy.

"Who said we're going to rob you of something?" Zhu Chongba frowned and said, "We are the Red Turban Army, we are going to beat those dog-day Liaodong soldiers, how can they harm you, let's kill them and avenge the people of Qilu!" ”

The people looked up in surprise, "But King Zhu of Yidu?" ”

This title made Zhu Chongba a little surprised, and nodded slowly, "It's us!" ”

"King Zhu, help us kill his little lady and raise the land!" The people cried, "They still say that they are officers and soldiers, but how can there be such officers and soldiers!" If you rob food, you have to rob livestock, rob people, and burn houses! My family's food, my daughter! We just don't have knives and guns in our hands, but if there are any guys, we will fucking fight with them! ”

Looking at the people who dragged their families with their mouths, Zhu Chongba's face softened, and he said softly, "Let's do the murderous thing." Folks, tell us, where are those Yuan troops? ”
