The various performances of Huang Yourong and the businessmen of Huizhou and Zhejiang are naturally just a performance. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Prior to this, the vast majority of merchants in Huizhejiang were smuggling to make huge profits, and all of them were not clean! For example, Lin Yunpu, Dai Fengfu, and Bai Mingyu are all among the most powerful smugglers in recent years.
However, since the establishment of the "United Shipping Company", the merchants of Huizhou and Zhejiang have been divided into two camps, and some of them have joined the "United Shipping Company", intending to join hands with the imperial court to monopolize the business of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal and the Yangtze River waterway, abandon the identity of smuggling merchants, and transform into an official businessman! On the other hand, they are unwilling to join the "United Ship Company" for various reasons, and still insist on their own smuggling business, and because the appearance of the "United Ship Company" will threaten their smuggling business, they are full of hostility to the "United Ship Company," and they are indeed secretly making things difficult.
However, Lin Yunpu, Dai Fengfu, Bai Mingyu and others are not easy people, in this series of open and secret battles, no one on either side has taken advantage, so they are by no means as honest and pitiful as they described.
Their cries were just to give Huang Yourong a reason so that the power of the imperial court could participate in it and help them defeat their opponents!
Once the power of the imperial court joins this struggle, and all the smuggling merchants who are unwilling to join the "United Shipping Company" are completely destroyed, then the shipping business of the "United Shipping Company" will no longer have competitors, coupled with the preferential policies of the imperial court, and the strong strength of the "United Shipping Company" itself, it will be able to monopolize the shipping business of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal and the Yangtze River waterway in the shortest possible time, and at that time, the "United Shipping Company" will inevitably be able to create incomparably huge profits!
On the other hand, before Huang Yourong came to Nanzhili, he was instructed by Zhao Junchen to help the "United Ship Company" punish those smugglers who were unwilling to join the "United Ship Company", so that the "United Ship Company" could show results as soon as possible!
Therefore, long before today's establishment ceremony, under the secret guidance of Zhao Junchen, Huang Yourong and Lin Yunpu and others had reached a tacit understanding, and then today's performance appeared.
The show was not brilliant, and many smelled of conspiracy, but it was enough to create a reason for the court to intervene.
In fact, Huang Yourong's mood at this time was extremely excited, and he was quite complacent.
Because of the continuous raid of the family property of Su Changyi and other twelve officials, Huang Yourong can be said to have made a lot of profits during this time, and now he is already a little addicted to this kind of thing, thinking that there will be a large number of rich and rival Hui and Zhejiang businessmen who will be questioned by themselves to rob their homes, and they can take the opportunity to reap a lot of benefits, Huang Yourong's mood is extremely excited.
The huge wealth is intoxicating, but this feeling of controlling the life and death of others at will makes Huang Yourong even more unstoppable.
In Huang Yourong's mind, the matter is not complicated, it is just some smuggling businessmen, Zhao Junchen has already ordered Lin Yunpu and others to collect conclusive evidence in advance, and it is not easy to punish them.
However, Huang Yourong thought that he was in control of everything, but he didn't know that his every move had fallen into other people's calculations.
Zhao Junchen's plan is not just to punish some uncooperative smugglers!
In fact, Huang Yourong was still calculated by Zhao Junchen this time, and when he agreed to the request of Lin Yunpu and others, it was not his turn to call the shots for the follow-up development!

At the same time that Huang Yourong impassionedly said that he would definitely uphold justice for the Huizhou and Zhejiang businessmen of the "United Ship Company", Li Chuanwen, Zhao Junchen's chief staff, stood in an inconspicuous corner in the distance, quietly watching the performance in front of him, and a sneer flashed at the corner of his mouth.
"This Huang Yourong, because he is still the former pavilion elder, is being played by Lord Zhao between applause and still doesn't know it! It seems that a series of raids some time ago made him a little paralyzed, completely ignoring what kind of impact these things will have! In this way, from today onwards, Huang Yourong can only be tied to Lord Zhao's boat and obey Lord Zhao's orders! He has received so many benefits from Lord Zhao, so naturally he has to create an equivalent return! ā
Li Chuanwen's heart was full of sarcasm, and he thought secretly.
And just as Li Chuanwen was thinking about it, Xiao Wenxuan, another of Zhao Junchen's staff, quietly came to Li Chuanwen's side and reported to Li Chuanwen: "Mr. Li, I just received a good news, after this period of repeated persuasion, that person finally agreed to our proposal and agreed to cooperate with us!" ā
After hearing Xiao Wenxuan's report, a glimmer of light flashed in Li Chuanwen's eyes.
Then, Li Chuanwen nodded approvingly to Xiao Wenxuan and said: "Lord Zhao left you in Nanzhili some time ago, the old man was still a little worried, after all, you are indeed a little inexperienced, and Lord Zhao's plan is very large and complicated, the old man is inevitably worried that you will not be able to complete Lord Zhao's various arrangements...... But now it seems that it is a terrible future, and it is precisely because of your secret preparation during this period of time that our plan can go so smoothly. ā
Speaking of this, Li Chuanwen had a smile on his face, and said: "Lord Zhao values your potential, and when I left you in Nanzhili, I wanted to further hone you and give you the opportunity to be independent, and you didn't disappoint Lord Zhao!" When the old man returns to Beijing, he will definitely tell Lord Zhao in detail about your achievements...... Perhaps, you will soon be able to return to the capital and take over more important things. ā
Li Chuanwen knew very well that Zhao Junchen attached great importance to Xiao Wenxuan, so he also took the opportunity to get closer to the relationship between the two sides, and his tone was quite gentle and cordial.
On the other side, after Xiao Wenxuan thanked Li Chuanwen, he looked at Huang Yourong in the distance thoughtfully, and said: "However, Huang Yourong is a former pavilion elder after all, and he is by no means a stupid and ignorant person, I am afraid that he will soon see Lord Zhao's true plan, and at that time, he will inevitably resist, and he may not cooperate with Lord Zhao's plan, what should we do at that time?" ā
Li Chuanwen's expression remained unchanged, and he said slowly: "At that time, Huang Yourong will not be in charge of the matter!" If Huang Yourong's resistance is too strong, let's just set him up! What's more, Huang Yourong is not an impulsive and reckless person, when he encounters a choice, he will calculate the pros and cons, and cooperating with Lord Zhao is his only way out in the future! ā
After speaking, Li Chuanwen no longer watched the clumsy performance of Huang Yourong and the merchants of Huizhejiang, turned around and walked into the distance, and said: "Let's go, the play has been watched, we still have a lot of things to do, we can't delay time here!" ā
Xiao Wenxuan nodded and hurriedly followed behind Li Chuanwen.
Indeed, there are still many things that need to be handled by them, as Zhao Junchen's real spokesperson in Nanzhili, they will secretly promote a series of changes, and when the situation is clear, the situation of the entire Ming Dynasty will change dramatically.
