Chapter 629. House raiding frenzy (4).

……

……

Su Changyi's case is extremely implicated, and it directly caused a strong earthquake in the officialdom of Nanzhili!

When Su Changyi was questioned about the crime and his house was raided, eleven of Su Changyi's friends were convicted and raided by Huang Yourong, and one-third of the prefect-level officials in Nanzhili were implicated. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

But in fact, the real number is far more than that, such as Guo Huaiyuan, the prefect of Suzhou, Jiang Wenshan, the prefect of Xuzhou, and other six officials, because their crimes are lighter, less notorious, and they are not as unscrupulous as other officials when doing things on weekdays, and they are all smart people, and they expressed their "repentance" in a timely manner -- the so-called repentance is the meaning of only Zhao Junchen in the future -- so they were secretly preserved by Gu Quan and were not affected by Su Changyi.

Regarding Gu Quan's small actions, Huang Yourong turned a blind eye and adopted a tacit attitude without any interference.

After all, Huang Yourong was able to get the errand of the minister of Qincha, all thanks to Zhao Junchen's support, and now he has reaped the benefits of nearly one million taels of silver through a series of raiding actions, so he naturally wants to repay the favor, not only did not prevent Zhao Junchen from taking the opportunity to meddle in the officialdom of Nanzhili, but also opened the door to convenience, and even personally helped.

Huang Yourong's courteous attitude is very different from his respect for Zhao Junchen at the beginning!

In the past month, Huang Yourong has confiscated a total of 12 officials' family properties, ostensibly a total of 2.71 million taels of silver, in addition to various treasures and properties with a total value of no less than 800,000 taels of silver.

This may seem like a high number, but the real number has to be at least doubled!

At least 2.5 million taels of stolen silver were secretly intercepted by Huang Yourong, and when auctioning off the property of these criminal officials, Huang Yourong also secretly moved some hands and feet, and took the opportunity to make a sum of silver, plus some hands and feet in the accounts, Huang Yourong's house raid this time made a full 3.7 million taels of silver!

Of course, the 3.7 million taels of silver did not fall into Huang Yourong's pocket, Huang Yourong also needed to pay up and down and share some benefits to the local snakes in Nanzhili, and this expenditure alone was as high as 600,000 taels! In addition, Huang Yourong also gave Gu Quan the benefit of 100,000 taels of silver, after all, Gu Quanquan was the deputy envoy of the Qin Mission and the spokesperson for the interests of Zhao Junchen, and he couldn't let him work in vain.

The remaining three million taels of silver, after Huang Yourong hesitated for a long time, he shared the account with Zhao Junchen, leaving the bulk of the head to Zhao Junchen, and he only left thirty percent of the silver.

In fact, Huang Yourong originally planned to split the account with Zhao Junchen - although Zhao Junchen ensured that he became the Lord of the Qincha, it was also a choice of last resort, the two were just a cooperative relationship, not subordinate to the upper and lower levels, and if Zhao Junchen left him, he would not get so many benefits at all! - But after some serious consideration, Huang Yourong took the opportunity to sell Zhao Junchen a favor, and it seemed that he planned to cooperate with Zhao Junchen for a long time.

Regarding Huang Yourong's change of attitude, Li Chuanwen, a staff member sent by Zhao Junchen to Nanzhili, saw it all, and hurriedly wrote a secret letter to Zhao Junchen, saying that Zhao Junchen's plan could be carried out to the next stage.

Zhao Junchen's layout and plan in Nanzhili this time are actually far more complex and huge than Huang Yourong and Gu Quan's imagination!

Now, that's just the beginning!

If it is said that the most eye-catching thing in Nanzhili in recent times is the fall of Su Changyi and Huang Yourong's series of raids, then the second eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the establishment ceremony of "United Boat Company".

In the eyes of many, the inauguration ceremony of the "United Boat Company" is far more important than the change of officials in Nanzhili.

The officialdom change of Nanzhili is only related to Nanzhili, and once the "United Ship Line" is officially established, it will definitely have a far-reaching impact on the entire Ming Dynasty!

This matter is still very related to Huang Yourong, because Huang Yourong came to Nanzhili as the minister of the Qin Mission this time, in addition to hearing Su Changyi's case, it is also to represent the imperial court to participate in the establishment ceremony of the "United Boat Trip"!

On this day, after nearly half a year of preparation, a total of 37 powerful Huizhou businessmen joined the "United Shipping Company" was finally officially established!

The inauguration ceremony of the "United Ship Company" was naturally very grand, not only all the merchants from Huizhou and Zhejiang who joined the "United Ship Company" were present, but the imperial court also sent Huang Yourong and Gu Quan as representatives, and the local officials of Nanzhili came to cheer for it!

In order to achieve a blockbuster effect, the wealthy merchants of Huizhou and Zhejiang chartered the largest wharf in Yangzhou Mansion, transferred dozens of 3,000-stone ships to show their strength, and also set the ten most expensive restaurants in Yangzhou to entertain guests.

On the wharf, when Lin Yunpu, the first chief treasurer of the "United Shipping Company" and the president of the Salt Merchants Association, announced the official establishment of the United Shipping Company, it was natural that firecrackers rang out, gongs and drums were noisy, and the guests also applauded to express their support.

Then, Huang Yourong, as a representative of the imperial court and a lord of the Imperial Court, also expressed the imperial court's attention and support for the "United Ship Company" in public, and repeatedly emphasized the importance of the "United Ship Company" to the imperial court's rectification of commercial taxes.

"In recent years, the turnover of money and grain in the imperial court has become more and more difficult, one of the main reasons is that the leakage of commercial taxes is too serious, according to the estimation of Zhao Junchen Zhao, the head of the household department, every year is just the silk cloth tax of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, and the imperial court loses as much as one million taels of silver every year! The establishment of 'United Shipping Company' is one of the important measures for Zhao to reverse the predicament of business and taxation! The imperial court attaches great importance to the establishment of the "United Boat Company", not only provides many preferential treatments, but also specially sends the old man to participate in the establishment ceremony of the "United Boat Company", just to show the support of the imperial court! Ladies and gentlemen, the Imperial Court has such deep hopes for the 'United Boat Voyage', and you must not let the Imperial Court down in the future!" ”

After saying some high-sounding words, Huang Yourong turned his head to look at Lin Yunpu, and said: "Lin Da Shopkeeper, you have also seen the importance of the imperial court, if you encounter any difficulties in the 'United Boat Trip', you can also take advantage of today's opportunity to raise it, the old man, as a royal court, as long as it is a reasonable request and something within the scope of his ability, he will definitely try his best to help you." ”

After hearing Huang Yourong's words, all the Huizhou and Zhejiang businessmen who joined the 'United Ship Company' glanced at each other, and under the leadership of Lin Yunpu, they walked in front of Huang Yourong one after another, bowed to Huang Yourong, and said in unison: "Lord Qincha, we have indeed encountered some trouble, and please Lord Qincha must make decisions for us!" ”

Well, the second update! Tomorrow is still a double watch!
