Chapter 186 Tax Superintendent
The reason why Gao Yu is so arrogant is because he won the favor of the Wanli Emperor, it is said that when he was in the palace, he was a Wanli prostitute boy, and the Wanli Emperor and his concubines slept in the dragon bed, of course, this is just a rumor in the wild history, whether it is true or not, but it is a fact that he was impeached several times but did not move, in the original time and space, Gao Yu was rampant in Fujian for 16 years, until 1614 AD because the public anger was too great, was impeached by a number of Donglin Party officials, he was recalled to Beijing, attention, was recalled to Beijing, not to ask the guilt and go to prison, It can be seen how much Wanli spoils him!
It is precisely because of the Wanli Emperor as a backer that Gao Yu can be said to be empty-sighted and does whatever he wants in Fujian, and even Xu Xueju, the governor of Fujian, has to salute him when he sees him. As mentioned above, the Dutchman Wei Malang occupied the Penghu Islands, and Shen Yourong went alone to force Wei Malang to withdraw from the army, which can be said to have made an immortal achievement, Xu Xueju was also ready to ask for merit from the imperial court for Shen Yourong, but because Wei Malang had bribed Gao Yu before, let Gao Yu play for the Dutch to ask for a mutual market, although in the end Wanli rejected Gao Yu's performance, but Gao Yu thought that Shen Yourong had ruined his good deeds, and made a move to obstruct it, but Shen Yourong did not get any reward although he made immortal achievements, and Gao Yu has held a grudge against Shen Yourong since then, suppressed him everywhere, causing Shen Yourong to make many miraculous achievements later but not be promoted, it can be seen that Gao Yu is not only narrow-minded, but also will be retribution!
Because of the physical disability of the eunuchs, most of them have some psychological changes. posture, personality is often very brutal and weird, so for a narrow-minded guy like Gao Huan, who is eager to repay him, Fujian officials are afraid of him like a snake and scorpion, even Huang Yihua is usually not willing to deal too much with Gao Huan, on the one hand, he is a member of the Zhejiang Party, and getting too close to Gao Huan, who is a eunuch, hinders his official reputation, on the other hand, Gao Huan is insatiable, has a huge appetite, and it is difficult to satisfy, Huang Bihua is also afraid that he will not be able to get out, but now in order to deal with Guo Zhiyuan, he can't care so much.
In order to invite Gao Huan, the great god, Huang Bihua also made a bloody trip to set up a sumptuous banquet in the mansion to invite Gao Huan, Gao Huan has always been a banquet must go, can eat and drink for nothing, maybe he will take it for nothing when he leaves, how can Gao Huan refuse such a good thing, naturally he is happy to go to the banquet.
Seeing Gao Huan, Huang Bihua naturally had a lot of flattery, Gao Huan naturally took all the orders in a big thorn, and only after he was full of wine and food did Gao Huan pick his teeth, glanced at Huang Bihua, and said slowly: "Lord Huang, you are coming out of the sun in the west today, and the miscellaneous family has been in Fujian for many years, this is the first time you invite the miscellaneous family to the banquet, let's say, but do you want the miscellaneous family to help?" If you can do it, you will definitely do it, but you should know the rules......"
Huang Bihua couldn't help but secretly scolded this Gao Yu for being really shameless, and before he could open his mouth, he stretched out his hand to ask for benefits, so he said curtly: "Father-in-law Gao laughed, the public is busy with official business on the fair day, and the lower officials are not easy to disturb, I invite my father-in-law to come today, for this tax matter, my father-in-law supervises the tax revenue of Fujian for the saint, and he must be often worried about this tax matter, right?!" ……”
Gao Yu glanced at Huang Yihua with some surprise, and said angrily: "The miscellaneous family has received the grace of the saint, and it is also appropriate to supervise this tax matter, and it is also appropriate to work hard, the miscellaneous family likes to go straight, Lord Huang, if you have something to say, just say it directly, the miscellaneous family has no spare time to accompany you!" By the way, it seems that you only pay eighty percent of the taxes in Fuzhou Prefecture......"
Huang Sihua scolded secretly, and said in his heart that you are a dead eunuch, and you are still making a gesture in front of me, Fujian is not richer than Jiangnan, and it is already very good to be able to pay eighty percent of the taxes, but he has a request for others, so he has to say with a shy face: "Father-in-law Mingjian, the lower officials also want to pay ten percent of the taxes, but now the officials below are very slippery, trying their best to evade taxes, and the lower officials have no choice, such as this Gutian County, obviously you can pay more taxes, but Guo Zhiyuan, the magistrate of Gutian County, relies on him to have someone in the court, and he doesn't take my prefect in his eyes at all. Xia Guan also sent a master book down, but he was also elevated......"
Gao Yu frowned and said, "Gutian County? If the miscellaneous family remembers correctly, it's a poor county? What kind of oil and water can it have? ......" Suddenly he thought of something, and pointed his finger at Huang Yihua and said: "The miscellaneous family remembers, before Lord Huang was reprimanded by the Holy Decree, it seems that it was because of this Guo Zhiyuan, Lord Huang, you are really not authentic, you actually want to use the miscellaneous family as a gunman to help you deal with this Guo Zhiyuan?!" ……”
Huang Bihua hurriedly said with some trepidation: "How dare the lower officials take advantage of their father-in-law, father-in-law doesn't know, this Gutian County is not as rich as before, it is so rich, my father-in-law must have heard of the cheongsam and fairy brand cigarettes of this wonderful clothing workshop, they were all made by Guo Zhiyuan!" ……”
"Oh! Didn't you say that it was the Leng family's industry? Gao Yu's eyes lit up when he heard it, and now the cheongsam and fairy brand cigarettes of Miaoyifang are selling well in the circle of dignitaries and nobles, and Gao Yu has already remembered it, just because the Leng family has a lot of influence in Fujian, and it is not easy to start for a while.
Huang Yihua knew that he was already tempted when he saw Gao Yu's face, and hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot: "That Guo Zhiyuan is very slippery, and he deliberately borrowed the name of the Leng family, but he is actually the one who is really controlling behind the scenes, if it weren't for the master book sent by the lower official to report to me, the lower official would have almost been deceived by him!" ……”
Gao Yu glanced at Huang Yihua, and said with a smile: "It seems that this Guo Zhiyuan is really not simple, no wonder even Lord Huang can't help him, I heard that he has a good relationship with Liu Guangxian's old thing, and even Shen Ge Lao is quite protective of him, it's not easy to move him!" ……”
Huang Yihua was obedient and obedient, knowing that Gao Yu was going to be beneficial, gritted his teeth, took out the box of pearls that Guo Zhiyuan gave him before, and said with a sneer: "This is what Guo Zhiyuan gave to Xiaguan, and Xiaguan borrowed flowers to offer Buddha and gave them to his father-in-law, so Guo Zhiyuan doesn't know how many such treasures he has hidden, father-in-law, do you say that he is so rich?!" ……”
A greedy light flashed in Gao Yu's eyes, and with a sweep of his sleeves, he put away the box of pearls, and said contemplatively: "That miscellaneous family said that he couldn't go to Gutian for a trip, then Guo Zhiyuan would be fine if he was interested, if he was not interested, no matter who was behind him, he would have to uproot him!" ……”
Huang Yihua was secretly overjoyed, and hurriedly flattered: "My father-in-law will definitely succeed if he goes out in person!" The two looked at each other and laughed!
Guo Zhiyuan's intelligence station in Fuzhou is now operational, Fuzhou prefect Huang Sihua is naturally the object of great concern of the intelligence station, for this reason the intelligence personnel specially bribed a small guy in Huang Yihua's mansion, so although Huang Yihua and Gao Huan's secret meeting was secret, but it was still collected by the intelligence station, the head of the intelligence station was Huang Laoji, who was one of the first batch of bandit captives that Guo Zhiyuan broke through the Zuanshan Leopard Cottage and subdued, and he knew that 100,000 were in a hurry as soon as he saw this information, and sent it to Gutian overnight to report to Guo Zhiyuan.
Originally, Guo Zhiyuan was in a very good mood during this time because of the smooth development of Gutian, but now his good mood has been destroyed by this sudden secret report, this Huang Yihua is really hateful, one plan can't be made and another plan comes, endlessly, this is the rhythm of not giving up if you don't die!
However, compared with Huang Yihua, what made Guo Zhiyuan shudder and grit his teeth was the name Gao Huan, there are not many records of Gao Yu in the official history, only that he was in the Fujian tax superintendent, tyrannical and tyrannical, and did all kinds of evil, but in the history of the wild, it is recorded that Gao Huan committed a heinous evil atrocity!
The reason why it is said to be evil is because this atrocity has completely exceeded the imagination of normal people. Gao Yu has two "original officials", one is called Wei Tianjue and the other is Lin Zongwen. The original official was a special official position in the Ming Dynasty, that is, the officials who specially asked the emperor to open mines and collect taxes, and at the same time, they were also responsible for leading the tax supervisors appointed by the emperor to find the ore veins and cooperate with the taxation, in fact, they acted as the "staff officers" of the tax supervisors. After these people arrived at the place, they could be evaluated in eight words, that is, "the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, and there is no evil", but it is rare to be able to be evil at the level of Wei Tianjue and Lin Zongwen, because in order to curry favor with Gao Huan, they presented him with a "secret recipe"
Gao Yu has the power to the world, do whatever he wants, but in addition to brocade clothes and jade food, as a dead eunuch, some blessings can not be enjoyed no matter what, I heard the secret recipe of these two scumbags, I was overjoyed, and ordered a large number of boys and girls to be purchased, "crushed skulls and brains", at the beginning, it was just some families who were so poor that they couldn't eat enough, and they sold their children to Gao Yu, but later, many local villains found that this was a way to make a fortune, so they abducted the children with **, "sold in the house, and won more gold", and people in Fujian were panicked for a while. And Gao Yu killed the children, took out the brain marrow, and threw their young bones directly into the pool in the backyard of the tax office, so that "in the pool of the tax office, the bones are white and toothy"
Presumably, readers feel miserable and numb when they see this and the author, and they can't wait to break this Gao Huan's body into ten thousand pieces, but it is a pity that in the original history, Gao Huan committed this heinous atrocity without any sanctions, and all Fujian officials who knew about it turned a blind eye, because they knew that Gao Huan was deeply favored by the Wanli Emperor, and impeaching him not only could not help but also be retaliated against by Gao Huan.
At this time, Guo Zhiyuan also hated having to kill Gao Huan, a dead eunuch, regardless of all the consequences, but after calming down, he knew that he couldn't act rashly, because he was no longer a person, if he did this, not only would his grand cause be impossible to achieve, but he and his team members would have to be finished, and it was obviously not worth it to give up his grand cause and life for Gao Yu such a dead eunuch, and this matter must be considered in the long run.
