The commotion outside quickly subsided, and Wang Yi, who was holding a knife on his waist, strode in and bowed down to report, "Young master, thirty-nine people have been captured, along with a total of forty-five people before, including three children of the Tao family, and Tao Dahu has not been seen. ”

Qian Yuan nodded, sat down calmly, and pointed to the chair that had been prepared a long time ago, "Mr. Wanxi, please take a seat." ”

"What is the crime of the Tao family, what is the crime of the Tao family?!" Tao Xiucai roared hoarsely, "Even if you patrol Zhejiang, can you wantonly hunt and kill good people, Lord Yin ......?"

"Good people?" Qian Yuan sneered: "Your Tao family is a good citizen...... I'm afraid that the people whose families have been ruined by your traps will not think so. ”

"In the thirty-first year of Jiajing, Tao Dahu ** will check the widow of the Liu family, so that he hanged himself, and his son was about to go to the hospital for the test at the age of sixteen, but his hands were broken, and his career was hopeless, and the property was taken away, and he died of illness in the land temple that year."

"In the thirty-second year of Jiajing, the gambling house opened by the children of the Zhao family in Shanyin in the Tao family exported the whole family's house, and the Zhao family also had some power in the local area, but the house caught fire that night, and the whole family died."

"That's right." Qian Yuan casually turned his head and glanced at the middle-aged man with a cold face behind Mei Shoude, "The head of the Zhao family seems to be Zhao Zhutou's cousin?" ”

"In the past three or four years, many people in Shanyin and Huiji have been deceived and robbed of their property or their property, and there have even been six or seven life lawsuits." Qian Yuan pouted at Zhao Zhutou Nunu, "What is this called?" ”

Zhao Zhutou stared at Tao Xiucai fiercely, "If you hit the six cities, even if you miss, you will gather many people to attack it." ”

Qian Yuan nodded casually, and looked at Tao Xiucai, who was lost in his soul, "When I heard that the wolf soldiers entered the city, I knew what happened, and my mind turned quickly, but unfortunately my hand was too small, what can I do with two thousand taels of silver?" ”

Mei Shoude had long intended to rectify the city, but he had no way to do it, and he was also jealous, so he sat down and said: "Go to the year to defend the city, and take advantage of the fire to rob and cause riots in the city many times......"

"Yes, so today's Qian someone is for the sake of Mr. Wanxi, the Japanese will inevitably invade Shaoxing Mansion within the year, and the city will be unstable. Qian Yuan took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Before the Ming Dynasty, Longjing was snatched away by my uncle, so it is better to drink white water." ”

"Zhancai is picky." Mei Shoude replied casually, but he was wondering in his heart, where did Qian Yuan hear so much news in just a few days.

"From the Cao'e River to the north, there are many withered images along the way, last year the Japanese were a little fierce, but I am afraid that Mr. Wanxi is busy." Qian Yuan sighed: "Rectify the military equipment, take care of the food and salary, hire the villagers, and even make ordnance and warships, you must know that Mr. Wanxi is the Fu Yin, but I am afraid that the silver in the treasury will not be enough, right?" ”

Over there, Tao Xiucai had already decided to spit out a large enough number, but unfortunately Zhang San casually picked up a rag on the stone table and stuffed it into his mouth.

Mei Shoude glanced sideways, "Zhancai patrols Zhejiang, but he has a lot of financial resources in his hands, can he still help a little?" ”

"Some?" Qian Yuan laughed and said, "Mr. Wanxi said the number. ”

Mei Shoude pondered for a moment before saying, "At least 30,000 taels." ”

Tao Xiucai's expression was shocked, even if his mouth was tightly stuffed, he still whined, this is a number he can accept.

Qian Yuan's gaze swept over the subordinates brought by Mei Shoude, and he stretched out his finger and nodded, "It's you." ”

Mei Shoude turned his head to look, this was a head catcher in the government, surnamed Zhang, a local, with a somewhat slippery temperament, standing there quite uneasy.

"Tell me, how much silver can you copied out of the business?" Qian Yuan glanced at Tao Xiucai, "Looking at the appearance of this guy, I'm afraid it's more than 30,000 taels, after all, I've been doing this business for more than ten years." ”

Zhang Zhutou smiled dryly and took two steps forward, and when he saw Tao Xiucai's fierce gaze, he couldn't help but take two steps back.

"Hey." Qian Yuan sighed and shook his head, "Mr. Wanxi is worried about the whole house, 30,000 taels of silver is not enough, just 40,000 taels of silver, and someone will not take a penny." ”

"Ahem, ahem." Mei Shoude coughed vigorously a few times, he didn't expect Qian Yuan to say so nakedly.

The words are a bit ugly, but the effect is very good, the head catchers and officials of the government are all locals, who don't know that the Tao family has made a lot of money over the years.

In the quiet courtyard, only Tao Xiucai's whining could be heard, as well as the heavy wheezing of those headcatchers and officials.

Qian Yuan casually glanced over and took out a piece of paper from his arms, "Take a look, is there anything missing?" ”

Zhang Zhutou took it and looked at it a few times, discussed it with others in a low voice, and replied excitedly: "It's all on it." ”

"The leader of the wolf soldiers is outside, take people to catch them, and keep their hands and feet clean when copying." Qian Yuan glanced at Mei Shoude, "Qian doesn't matter, but you will have to listen to orders under Mr. Wanxi in the future." ”

Mei Shoude is notoriously breezy with two sleeves, and he wants to reprimand a few words but doesn't want to break things, so he can only turn his head and stare at the wall full of withered vine branches.

But no one moved, the two head catchers and the three officials all hesitated and didn't go out, and the corner of their eyes kept looking at Tao Xiucai, who was still struggling.

"Don't worry, if you don't die, you will suffer from it." Qian Yuan handed the teacup to the guards beside him, "Change the cup of white water...... Everyone was taken to Ninghai, and there was a shortage of major generals under Ning Shaotai's general Lu Bin...... Hey, Zhang San, the rag is lost! ”

Tao Xiucai's mouth was loosened, he first spat a few times, gasped a few times, and then said loudly: "What is the crime of the Tao family, so that the house was raided, please make it clear to Lord Yin!" ”

Mei Shoude looked at Qian Yuan expressionlessly, and swept all the streets in the city, which is a good thing, but this also needs a reason...... Obviously, the government can't give a reason, and it is very arrogant to do things, but in general, it is wandering in the gray area and fighting lawsuits...... A few years may not lead to a conviction.

"Who said the Tao family is guilty?" Qian Yuan yawned, he slept late last night, and got up too early this morning, "Don't you claim to know Huijitao Port?" ”

Tao Xiucai was furious, "There are countless people in Huiji and Shanyin who know Tao Gang, and even Lord Fu Yin knows them!" ”

"Taogang rushed into Taihu Lake and was in the company of the Japanese Bandits, and it was not good for the Suzhou government to send troops to arrest them." Qian Yuan sighed: "You know Taogang, but you are a fellow villager, and they are all people in the middle of the line, this official patrols Zhejiang and supervises military affairs, so naturally I want to ask you to go back and ask about it." ”

"Friend Tao rest assured, black is black, white is white, turn back to the official line, please send someone to check with the governor of the Heavenly Patrol, if Tao friend has nothing to do with Tao Gang and the Japanese Kou, he will naturally let you return to your hometown."

A simple sentence sounded dignified and impartial, but Tao Xiucai immediately collapsed on the ground like a puddle of mud, and several head catchers and officials looked relaxed with a smile on the corner of their mouths.

"Shicai said, if you don't die, you will suffer from it, anyway, Qian Mou is a Zhejiang patrolman, and the guards around him are like clouds......" Qian Yuan turned his head and said: "There are eighteen people in total, if there is one less, you can ask for more blessings." ”

"Don't worry, Lord Qian, you should do your best." A few officials and head-catchers hurried out happily after saluting.

Horses have no night grass and no fat, people have no windfall and no wealth, after determining that the Tao family can't turn over, they know that their own windfall is coming!

Qian Yuan took the teacup and took a sip of water, and asked a little unexpectedly: "Yes, sweet, is it well water?" ”

"It's in the alley behind the house, and it's called Sweetwater Alley." The guard bowed and said, "It's already boiled." ”

"Mr. Wanxi, forty thousand taels of silver is enough." Qian Yuan said with a smile: "After a while, Taizhou will send a small force to Shaoxing Mansion to kill the widows full-time, and ask Mr. Wanxi to take care of them." ”

"Come to Shaoxing Mansion to kill the widows?"

"They are all recruits, and they train in battle." Qian Yuan slammed at Yang Wen and Zhang Sannunu, "Lu Bin and Hou Jigao robbed most of the powerful people around Qian, and they still have to rely on Mr. Wanxi for food and ordnance replenishment." ”

"Killing widows for Shaoxing Mansion is an unshirkable responsibility." Mei Shoude responded and asked, "...... the right talent?"

Seeing Mei Shoude's gaze fall on Tao Xiucai, who was with a withered face, Qian Yuan smiled and explained a few words in a low voice, Mei Shoude immediately suddenly realized and nodded again and again.

It doesn't matter who this group of people are handed over, it is difficult to say whether they live or die, but if they are handed over to the Governor of Yingtian, death will be regarded as a gift to them.

It is not an exaggeration for Zhu Guozhen to compare the fight with the Ganzhou Mutiny, the Datong Mutiny, the Liaodong Mutiny, and the Nanjing Mutiny in "The Biography of the Emperor and Ming Dynasty".

Just last year, a month before Xu Hai led the Japanese invaders, Weng Dali, the governor of Yingtian, decided to order all prefectures and counties to arrest and fight...... As a result, in broad daylight, a group of evil teenagers stopped Weng Dali's sedan chair and gave him two big slaps in front of everyone!

When Qian Yuan heard this, his eyes were about to bulge, and in other words, the top leaders of the municipalities in the municipality in later generations were slapped by the underworld on the street...... This is going to break the sky!

The matter is not over yet, Weng Dali, who has suffered a big loss and lost a big face, naturally wants to take revenge, and openly swears, "If the rats dare to do so, they will be killed." ”

This time it was even worse, hundreds of pedestrians armed with long knives and giant axes, wrapped their heads in white scarves, besieged prisons in Suzhou, Wu County, and Changzhou in the middle of the night, released a large number of prisoners, and made concerted efforts to attack the Yamen of Yingtian Governor, Weng Dali took his wife and children to climb the wall before he escaped for his life.

Well, this is really not some underworld trouble, it should be considered an armed riot!

Tao Gang led his men into Taihu Lake, and then the Japanese invaders rose in all directions, he and the Japanese invaders converged in Taihu Lake, and led people to raid at a critical moment, so that the Suzhou military preparation Wang Chonggu pursued frustrated, and the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate Imperial History, to the matter of many impeachment Weng Dali is useless.

Regarding the most hated action in the world, it is naturally Weng Dali.

It's really unlucky to think about it, although the governor of Yingtian supervised military affairs in the thirty-second year of Jiajing, but the second year set up the governor of Zhejiang, and Cao Bangfu was attached to Li Shiyan in the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing, and then Li Shiyan was dismissed, Cao Bangfu was impeached and dismissed, and since then, the governor of Yingtian has almost no influence.

On the same day, the government and county government were dispatched together, hundreds of wolf soldiers armed with knives and guns, and the county people enthusiastically led the way, and nearly 200 dozen evil people were arrested and imprisoned.

On the second day, Mrs. Wa set off, Qian Yuan set up a banquet outside the city, and then leisurely climbed the mountain to see the scenery.

"It's so laid-back." Halfway up the mountain, Zhu Dashou smiled and arched his hand: "It's just a few days, Zhancai tried his skills, and the thunderbolt method was swept away. ”

"Thank you Brother Duanfu for your help."

Qian Yuan, an outsider, can know so much about the inside of the industry, naturally because of the help of local families.

Qian Yuan did not speak first, but took the sacrifice to worship first, and the two of them sat down in the wooden house after the matter was over.

"It's just just that it coincides with the meeting, and last year the Japanese besieged the city, and there were many restless actions in the city." Qian Yuan explained in detail, "Last year, the company made trouble in Suzhou, attacked the prison first, released many felons, and entered Taihu Lake and has not been cleared so far. ”

Zhu Dashou nodded, "As soon as the wolf soldiers go, Shanyin and Huiji are only afraid that the troops will be insufficient." ”

"Taizhou will send troops to help, and Xu Hai may not attack Shaoxing." Qian Yuan pondered for a moment, "Brother Duanfu should move back to the city, the Japanese robbers come for money, and they will also loot and coerce the young and strong, but they will not destroy the tomb." ”

Seeing that Zhu Dashou hesitated, Qian Yuan persuaded again: "Vegetarianism in the tomb is filial piety, but filial piety also has a big and small difference......

A series of consolations made Zhu Dashou have to respond, and Qian Yuan semi-forced the guards to move all the belongings and utensils of Zhu Dashou back, and then he was relieved.

Zhu Dashou is upright, but not stubborn, and has an excellent relationship with King Yu, which is an important person in Qian Yuan's plan.

If there is anyone who can overpower Zhang Juzheng at a critical moment in the future, there is only one person who can talk about seniority among the scholars in the garden.

On the twenty-seventh day of the first month, Qian Yuan sent Zhong Nan to lead 400 wolf soldiers to escort 200 prisoners to Ninghai, and he took Yang Wen, Zhang San and other guards to go straight to Zhuji, and went south to Jinhua Mansion in Puyang, and then turned east to reach Yiwu County.
