175 The Truth of the Matter

When Zhu Yujiao heard this, she couldn't help but be a little curious, and hurriedly asked, "Sir, who is making trouble?" ”

When Zhang Mingwei heard this, he didn't reply immediately, but said to them: "Turn over the news provided by Zhou Wenzhen first, and then turn over the news about Jin Shang." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yujiao naturally understood, and Mr. guessed that Jin Shang was making trouble. So, she and Fei Zhen'e hurriedly went to look through another pile of materials.

After checking it for a while, sure enough, Zhu Yujiao pointed to some of the contents and said to Zhang Mingwei: "Sir, please see, these Jin merchants are really buying grain and shipping it back to Shanxi." ”

"I also have it here, and the Jin merchants didn't just buy grain from Jingshi!" Fei Zhen'e also found some information, and hurriedly followed.

Subsequently, both of them read the relevant information. After reading it, Fei Zhen'e asked a little curiously, "What do these Jin merchants want so much grain for?" Hoarding strange dwellings? ”

At this time, they hoard all the grain they buy, and sell it when the price of grain rises again to make more money. Something like this, as a palace maid, she has naturally heard of it.

Because of this, the reputation of businessmen is generally not very good. Because they chase profits, the bigger the better, and few businessmen know how to do charity to change this impression of the world.

Zhu Yujiao knew a little more, and after hearing Fei Zhen'e's words, she asked Zhang Mingwei a little uncertainly: "Sir, these Jin merchants collect grain, should they be sold to Liaodong?" ”

When Fei Zhen'e heard this, she was a little stunned: Sell it to Liaodong?

Zhang Mingwei nodded when he heard this, and said with a serious expression: "In the battle of Songjin, the construction of the captives used the method of siege, and it was similar to the action of the whole country's troops, and then there was no capture, the war was needed, and they burned all the grain and grass of the imperial court officials and soldiers at the beginning. Therefore, they should be in urgent need of materials, especially food, and they are even more urgent, and the Nanu Chief Taiji is a capable person, so he will naturally not be stingy with money, anyway, they are all robbed money, and they are not distressed to spend it. ”

Speaking of this, he paused, and said with a little hatred: "Those Jin merchants naturally understand this, or Jian Yu has already informed the Jin merchants. Therefore, they ignored the fact that the people in the customs were also in urgent need of food, ignored the fact that the people in the customs were starved to death, and also thought about selling the grain to Liaodong, which was at a higher price! ”

Hearing this, Zhu Yujiao suddenly said: "It is precisely because these Jin merchants often solve these big troubles in Liaodong Jianyu that they are named the Eight Great Imperial Merchants?" ”

She knew a little about the history of the afterlife, so she connected with it.

"That's right!" Zhang Mingwei listened, nodded affirmatively and said, "If it was just an ordinary transaction, it would definitely not be deliberately named the Eight Great Emperor Merchants!" Not only did they sell grain to the Liaodong Jianguo, but other things that were urgently needed by the Liaodong Jianguo must also be resold by them. It even includes various news from Kannai! ”

Although Fei Zhen'e didn't understand these words very well, such as what the situation of the Eight Great Emperor Merchants was, she understood the general situation. Suddenly, she also said angrily: "Master, do they only have money in their eyes? ”

"That's right, they really only have money in their eyes!" Zhang Mingwei listened, pointed at her with his hand, and immediately nodded and said: "Businessmen are heavy on profits, and they are the easiest to be expelled by interests!" Therefore, in the future, I will advise the emperor to encourage small merchants to do business, but to limit the expansion of large merchants. ”

Speaking of this, he said to the two people in front of him: "You guys check the news about each subway machine again." ”

After finishing speaking, Zhang Mingwei pondered by himself.

If it is a person of this era who does not know the affairs of the Jin merchants, then it is likely to be trapped in the fog, and they will not be able to peel off the cocoon from so many things and find out the behavior of the Jin merchants.

However, Zhang Mingwei, as a person of later generations, already knew the result, but instead deduced that many things were solved very well. For example, he asked people to check the price of grain and the sale of iron tools, and he immediately found out that the Jin merchants were doing these things. If other people were talking about it, more than one Jin merchant did these things, and it was unlikely that they were collectively arrested.

And now, it can be said that Zhang Mingwei is the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty, and the power he holds is incomparable to others. It will naturally be much easier for him to deal with those Jin merchants who are still in the dark and don't know that they are being targeted.

The detection of this grain iron tool is a means, and it is another means to let Zhou Wenzhen's Luo Zujiao go to Shanxi to investigate the news. Also, Ma Xianglin's white pole army, which has already arrived in Beijing, is actually a means to deal with these Jin merchants.

In other words, because of knowing the result, the net of heaven and earth against Jin Shang has actually been rolled out. And at the moment, except for Zhang Mingwei, no one else knows.

Zhu Yujiao and Fei Zhen'e also quickly found out about the buying and selling of iron tools, including farm tools, which were indeed purchased by Jin merchants.

Hearing their advice, Zhang Mingwei suddenly clapped his hands and said: "Take a two-pronged approach, don't procrastinate, and solve these Daming tumors as soon as possible." ”

already had an idea in his heart, so he said to the two people in front of him: "It's late at night now, you're all tired, look at the other news tomorrow, let's rest!" ”

Zhu Yujiao listened, and hurriedly said to Zhang Mingwei: "Mr. is the most tired." ”

Zhang Mingwei is really hard, he is not hypocritical, he glanced at a lot of information that he hadn't read, and he didn't particularly care, he stood up and stretched his waist and said, "Let's go and rest!" Tomorrow is another lively day. ”

Among those materials, there is a stack of lists of gifts that he came to give during his absence from Jingshi. These things are put last. Those who give gifts will probably cry to death if they find out.

The next day, it was very lively.

After all, when Chen Xinjia's family was arrested yesterday, it was already dark, and the news did not spread in Beijing. As soon as the day dawned, the news really spread.

Some people went to Chen Xinjia's mansion to see the movement, and found that they were all Jinyi guards, and they were confiscating their property, and they even implemented yesterday's news. So, they went back to pray.

"As soon as Guogong came back yesterday, he raided Chen Xinjia, what did he do?"

"It is estimated that the settlement of accounts after the autumn began, thinking that Chen Xinjia took the lead in impeaching Xingguo Gong at the beginning!"

"Then the original official department is still in the book, why is there no movement?"

"Don't you know, I heard that the people over there were terrified when they heard the news, and the servants ran away several times! If you think about it, all of them will be arrested and imprisoned, and I won't dare to stay any longer if I want to change them! ”

"I don't think you guessed right, Chen Xinjia must have committed something terrible to raid his house, right? Otherwise, at most, catch Chen Xinjia! ”

"Hehe, with the power of Xingguo Gong, I still need to tell you this, it must be a killer!"

“……”

All of a sudden, there was a lot of talk. Most people think that Xingguo Gong is killing chickens and monkeys; Others felt something else was going on.

Regarding Chen Xinjia's experience, some people sympathize, some people gloat, and some people are not concerned about themselves, in short, there are all kinds of people.

In the Zuodu Governor Tianfu, Tian Hongyu, the father of Tian Guifei, naturally heard these rumors, and had a deep understanding of the power of Xingguo Gong, no matter what.

So, without saying a word, he immediately took the one he had collected from Jiangnan, who thought it was a strange thing to live in, and hurriedly rushed to Zhang's mansion.

Who knows, Zhang Mingwei is no longer in the house.

When Tian Hongyu heard this, he didn't care, and forcibly stayed in Zhang's Mansion and waited. On this day, I have to give this "gift" out, and I have made friends with Xingguo Gong, maybe it will be helpful to my daughter!

She is the father of Tian Guifei, and unlike ordinary courtiers, she insisted on seeing Xingguo Gong before leaving, and she came to give gifts, of course, it was not easy to drive him, so she had to entertain him with a cup of tea.

At this time, Zhang Mingwei had already arrived at the Jinyi Wei Yamen. After some orders, the captain of the Jinyi Guard took action.

So, Zhou Yanru was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the day after Chen Xinjia was imprisoned, the captain of the Jinyi Guard would take him out. What's going on?

In fact, Chen Xinjia himself was confused, so when he saw Zhang Mingwei, he hurriedly said in a low voice: "Grandpa Guo, the grass people know that they are wrong, the grandpa Guo is the pillar of my Ming Dynasty, it is the grass people who are confused for a while, and the lard will impeach the grandpa of the country, and ask the grandpa of the country not to remember the villain......"

Thinking about Huang Yunfa's words, he hurriedly expressed his loyalty, wanting to be a dog of Xingguo Gong to protect his glory and wealth!

When Zhang Mingwei heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised by Chen Xinjia's face, what about the backbone of the literati?

In fact, if you think about it, this guy must have the backbone of a literati, and he will not collude with Jin merchants.

Thinking so, he shouted coldly: "The defeat of Songjin is because you ignored the facts of the military situation and urged the 130,000 army to rush out to attack and cause a big defeat, can you admit your guilt?" ”

This is a letter written by him, and I can't deny it if I want to.

In this regard, Chen Xinjia was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly explained: "Grandpa Guo, the battle of Songjin has been fought for so long, and if Jinzhou is not rescued, it will be in danger!" The grass people were forced to do that at the beginning! ”

Of course, he is guilty of this matter, but at most, he looks like the emperor resigned, as the emperor's favorite minister, he will definitely not agree to his resignation, and this matter is estimated to be like this.

Of course, this was before Zhang Mingwei appeared, and it is estimated that this will be the case. But now, Chen Xinjia couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart.

"Then why did you send someone to negotiate peace with the Jianyu privately?"

Chen Xinjia was stunned again when he heard this, he was doing this matter secretly, so he thought that he would have an eyebrow, so that he could be sure of mentioning this matter with Emperor Chongzhen.

This kind of thing can be regarded as a big taboo, especially now that he has lost power. Therefore, after hearing this, the fear in Chen Xinjia's heart deepened.

This is not over, I only heard Zhang Mingwei suddenly lean forward slightly, and said to him in a cold voice: "I have already interrogated Huang Yunfa, he has recruited all of them, as an official of the imperial court, what crime should you be guilty of being captured with them?" ”
