"Young master, Master Zhang has sent someone to Beijing." He Neng held the envelope in his hand.

After reading the code words and confirming that it was Zhang Xian's letter, Yan Chengjin opened the letter: Fangshan Zhixian rejected Zhang Xian's request and put forward many conditions.

The most important thing is to move the workshop and market to Fangshan.

"The magistrate of a good chicken thief, in the future generations, is a performance leader."

Fangshan Zhixian's move is to attract investment.

When the workshops and bazaars were moved, Fangshan was able to receive a large amount of tax silver.

Forcibly requisitioned, unreasonable, and passed to His Majesty, it will also attract impeachment.

Moved the workshop and the bazaar, and Gonzo was not his son......

Yan Chengjin thought for a while, and said to He Neng: "Let Wang Busui go to Fangshan and buy that land." ”

Where the good township is large, if you want to expand, you need to encroach on the fertile land.

Fangshan is next to Liangxiang, and the land in Nankang Township is very good.

Gonzo didn't want to give the land to the good country for nothing, but he would sell it to the gentry.

There were many loopholes in the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and all officials were not allowed to buy a field or house in the place where they were appointed. Violators will be punished with fifty lashes, dismissed, and Tian Zhai will be an official.

That is, officials are not allowed to buy houses in their offices.

Otherwise, you will be beaten fifty boards.

However, most of the Beijing officials who served in the capital bought mansions.

The land was not allowed to be traded privately, and it was necessary to ask the Hongzhi Emperor for begging, and after Zhu Yuanzhang, the phenomenon of donation became more and more serious, and it was not surprising that the county would get a piece of land for the gentry.

……

Beijing, Juwei Building.

Qiao Xinyuan inquired about Yan Chengjin's news and spent a lot of silver.

Now, whoever can eat the Silk Road in the northwest will be the rich armor that dominates the northwest.

Just as he was thinking, the servant walked in: "Master Qiao, Liangxiang sent someone to Fangshan, and wants to lease a piece of land in Fangshan, don't do anything?" ”

Qiao Xinyuan asked, "Where did you find out the news?" ”

"It was Liu Tong from Fangshan Yamen who said that he was a soap in Yamen, but the prince of Fangshan County did not agree, and he wanted to move the workshop in Liangxiang to Fangshan." Servant.

Liangxiang gathers heavenly merchants, and an endless stream of merchants is no less than the south of the Yangtze River.

This woke up Qiao Xinyuan.

He had many firms and workshops, concentrated in Shanxi, and when goods were shipped to Liangxiang and the capital for trading, they had to pay taxes when they passed through the customs.

Moreover, a large number of people were escorted, and they had to pay wages and rations.

"There is no land in Liangxiang, but there is in Fangshan! If the workshop is built in Fangshan, the goods will be transported to Liangxiang to be sold...... Quick, go and ask Master Jiao. ”

Qiao Xinyuan stood up excitedly, eager to rush to Fangshan now and buy the land.

It's just that he is a gentry, and the magistrate of Fangshan may not appreciate his face.

Jiao Fang is the right attendant of the ministry.

The Ministry of Officials is in charge of the evaluation and promotion of officials, and the three-year plan is coming.

Officials in the world, which one is not afraid of the officials?

Soon, Jiao Fang came to Juwei Lou and said unhappily: "There are many officials in the capital, and this official also needs to avoid it." ”

Qiao Xinyuan set up a banquet and said apologetically: "If it wasn't for the urgency, I wouldn't dare to bother my uncle." ”

Jiao Fang's face moved slightly, and he was called uncle by a person who was older than him, and he felt ...... It's a bit subtle.

Qiao Xinyuan's aunt was born to his father who married a concubine, and was many years younger than him.

Jiao Fang said impatiently: "What do you want to do, just say it directly." ”

"The students want to lease a piece of land in Fangshan, but Zhang Xian, the magistrate of Liangxiang, also takes a fancy to this land." Qiao Xinyuan said with a smile.

This matter also asked him to come forward, Jiao Fang snorted lightly, he disdained to deal with the gentry, and the concubine begged in his ear for a long time before he came to meet.

"You're directing your own officer?"

Qiao Xinyuan pouted and knelt on the ground: "My nephew doesn't dare, I want to beg my uncle to ......"

"I sent someone to Fangshan to report,

Your Majesty's investigation is very strict, don't instigate the woman to disturb the official, the official will only help you once, and the next time, he will sweep her out of the house. ”

Sending a concubine, I want to instigate the official to seek personal gain, the concubine is gone, and the official hat is gone.

Jiao Fang felt offended.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate pickets hundreds of officials, he has a deep friendship with Wu Kuan, the imperial history of the capital, and he dares to help Qiao Xinyuan once, but he is also afraid that it will reach His Majesty's ears.

Anyway, this kind of trivial matter should not be passed on to His Majesty.

Jiao Fang put down the wine glass: "This wine is good, send someone to send some to my house in a while." ”

Qiao Xinyuan was ecstatic in his heart and nodded again and again.

…………

Yan Fu,

Wang Busui came to the main hall nervously, this time he messed up, would the young master beat him?

I heard the young master say that this land should be used to build a winery and a wine cellar.

Even the wine is brewed.

"Young master, three hundred acres of land in Nankang Village...... was bought by Qiao Xinyuan, the villain paid twice the price, and he didn't sell it, so the county was like an evil one. ”

The day before yesterday, the magistrate of Fangshan still wanted silver.

Selling it for twice the price?

Yan Chengjin felt a little strange, so he sent the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to visit Fangshan to investigate.

In the duty room of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, look through the Da Ming Law.

Unconsciously, after half a day, Zheng Qian said: "My lord, I found out, and the official said that Gong Zuo met Jiao Fang's servant first, and then rented the land to Qiao Xinyuan. ”

The three-year plan is coming, and officials and county orders from all over the country must enter the capital for assessment.

have found a relationship with the ministry.

Good assessment results, promotion and salary increase.

Jiao Fang's methods are extremely clever, during the Zhengde period, Liu Jian fought with him several times, and the civil officials collectively wrote a sparse recital to Zhu Houzhao, wanting to kill Liu Jin.

Liu Jian and the others were full of confidence, but Jiao Fang secretly gave Liu Jin a move, but instead wiped out their whole group.

This person remains in the court, and in the future, he may be a huge threat.

Jiao Fang is different from Tu Yun, Zhou Jing, Bai Si and others.

Although Tu Tu, Zhou Jing and others are known as the six books of clay sculptures, they are gentlemen.

Jiao Fang is a complete villain, the kind of murderer who buys murder.

He should be the biggest opponent Yan Chengjin has encountered since his impeachment, and he is silent in the court on weekdays, but he didn't expect that Jin Shang invited him out.

This matter is not enough to be 100% sure of the impeachment of Jiao Fang.

Yan Chengjin does not plan to write his bullet seal for the time being.

"Help the official bring out the file of Gongzo."

……

Suncheonfu,

Liu Qing lay in the backyard and took a break in the trial.

"My lord, it's not good, there's an accident in Fangshan."

Liu Qing opened his eyes, looked at the errand officer who was holding the urgent performance in his hand, and reproached: "If there is no case one day, why do you do anything!" ”

You can't calm down after watching the rush, this is a rebellion, and the messenger will present the rush to him.

Liu Qing only glanced at it, his face suddenly changed greatly, he sat up suddenly, and exclaimed urgently: "Enter the palace, where is the official's black gauze hat?!" ”

"Your Excellency is not in a hurry, send someone to Fangshan to have a look first, in case it is a false alarm......" Fu Cheng persuaded.

Liu Qing was in a hurry, so he forgot about it, and hurriedly sent someone to Fangshan to check.

An hour later, he hurried into the palace and presented the urgent recital to the cabinet.

Li Dongyang looked at the urgent performance, and then looked at Liu Qing: "Report to Your Majesty, don't play with children, what is said in this urgent performance, but is it true?" ”

"I sent the officials to see it, and they did beat the officers and soldiers, and they wanted to set fire to the county officials, but they were stopped by the officials." Liu Qingdao.

Li Dongyang did not dare to slack off, and sent Shu Yue to the Huagai Palace, waiting for Emperor Hongzhi to summon him.

After a while, Xiao Jing personally came out and announced: "Your Majesty is waiting, the three adults are going to go in quickly, right?" ”

Emperor Hongzhi watched the rush and frowned: "The people of Nankang Village, dare to set fire to the yamen?" ”

Da Ming law, regardless of whether it is a state or county, as long as a capital crime is committed, the emperor must be notified.

Liu Qing pinched his sweat and said, "Maybe there is an exaggeration, but the minister sent someone to Fangshan, and there is indeed a matter of beating the officials." ”
