Chapter Seventy-Nine: Asking for Black Money

The four of them walked out of the hotel with a melancholy face, and the expressions on their faces can be described in four words, that is, they are like mourning. Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he would not pursue it, who is sure of this? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has hung a knife on the heads of the four people, and the four of them don't know what it's like in their hearts, in short, they just feel very bad.

"My lord, what are we going to do?" Mao Lun came to Han Fu's side and asked cautiously, after all, Han Fu's mood was not much better, and Mao Lun was afraid of angering Han Fu.

Han Fu was still in the mood to be angry at this time, sighed a little helplessly, and then said, "What else can I do?" According to what the prince said, if it was someone else, we might be able to make a false accusation, but this is His Royal Highness the Prince, and the slightest carelessness is the sin of losing your head, and you don't want to be pulled out and cut by those black dragon guards, right? ”

The three of them listened to Han Fu's words, and turned their heads to look at the Black Dragon Guard not far away, those people were like wooden stakes, with iron armor on their bodies, knives pressed on their waists, and they didn't squint, if it weren't for the faint sound of breathing and blinking from time to time, you wouldn't even think it was a living person. Such an army looks really scary.

After a shudder, the three of them turned their heads, and Mao Lun said with a sad face: "But we all know that this really has to be investigated, and we are afraid that we will not be able to explain it!" ”

Of course, they know very well the situation of Guangningwei, there are many escapees, and many people can't stand the oppression, so they just flee, and the shortage is serious. Then there are military households everywhere, many of them are not well equipped, even if they have a knife, even if they have a good knife, many people don't even have a knife, but are only responsible for farming.

Some of them are good, and the equipment is also very good, but these people are far from enough in number, that is, seventy percent of the effect.

If this is pulled over, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must not be angry? In fact, they don't know that there are really seventy percent, and Zhu Houzhao is very satisfied.

At this time, the Ming border army was not so bad, and the back was unimaginably rotten, but the four of them were still very worried. Seeing that the three of them were looking at themselves, looking like they were looking at their own horses, Han Fu scolded in his heart. Obviously, these guys are putting on this posture now, and it is clear that they are putting themselves on top, and if something really happens, these guys will sell themselves in the blink of an eye.

But when this time comes, what else can be done? Hard-capped prince? Don't make a fuss, that's looking for death.

Han Fu said directly: "Go back and mobilize manpower, move all the ordnance in the warehouse, the old and weak are also on the board, and those who are short will be said to have fled to the mountains, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really wants to blame, we will bear it with all our might." Saying that, Han Fu turned around and strode away, but he sneered in his heart, I want Lao Tzu to stand up to the thunder alone, and you also want to be blind.

The other three people glanced at each other, all of them a little embarrassed, but they tacitly understood that no one said anything and chased after them directly.

After the four of them left, Zhu Houzhao walked out of the house, feeling the cool air, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the temperature in Liaodong at this time was really pleasant. Seeing Liu Jin coming over with a person, Zhu Houzhao was not surprised, just stood in place and waited quietly.

This is a man in his thirties, his face is white and beardless, and the whole person has a calm temperament, and after seeing Zhu Houzhao, he hurriedly lay on the ground and saluted: "Jiang Yong, the Liaodong Branch of the Huanyi Bureau, see His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded, glanced at Jiang Yong and said, "Get up!" When Jiang Yong stood up, Zhu Houzhao asked, "How long have you been in Liaodong?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, two years and four months!" Jiang Yong hurriedly replied: "The minister came with Qiwei Zhai. ”

"Let's talk about it!" Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then spoke.

Jiang Yong was also prepared and said: "After the minister came to Liaodong, he mainly did two things, one thing was to find out the details of the generals at all levels in Liaodong, and the second was to sell the things of Qiwei Zhai to North Korea, which was also very profitable in the past two years, and opened up a trade route to North Korea according to the instructions of Yang Gonggong. ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and said appreciatively: "Very good, good job, let's talk about the big households in Liaodong!" ”

North Korea's business is naturally necessary, how can the obedient little brother not let him be under the king of Mu Daming? If you have good things, you naturally have to think about your little brother. This time wool textile, Zhu Houzhao regarded North Korea as a very good market, which can be further opened, North Korea still has a lot of potential to tap, and his own suzerain, he must also help his little brother.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Jiang Yong said in a deep voice: "Liaodong is a big family, there are more generals, Liaodong has always been a military town, and the style of writing is not obvious, even if someone is promoted in the scientific examination, then most of them will be officials and move." Liaodong has existed for many years, that is, these hereditary generals, they are rooted in Liaodong and manage military households, so the big households in Liaodong are Jiangmen. ”

This Zhu Houzhao understands that civil officials will not work here for a long time, and at most two terms will leave, and only Jiangmen will be inherited here.

Others don't say it, Li Chengliang is one of the models, the Li family in Tieling, that is also famous, but it did not spread to the entire Liaodong before Li Chengliang's family. Thinking of this, Zhu Houzhao immediately smiled: "Then in the home of Han Fu, the chief soldier of Liaodong, isn't it the largest household in Liaodong?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the position of the chief soldier is changed every three years by the imperial court, so there is not much help, the Han family is a big family, but it is not the largest household, and there is no largest household in Liaodong." Jiang Yong hurriedly said.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, the imperial court has much stricter requirements for military generals than for civil officials, and this is also the benefit of using literature and military affairs, and it is difficult for local generals to become bigger. Unless it is like Liaodong at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the border trouble is very great, and the imperial court has no choice but to give the border generals more power and better treatment, and the current Ming Dynasty does not exist in the situation that the border generals will become bigger.

Nodding, Zhu Hou looked at Jiang Yong, and then asked, "Who is the co-shareholder of this strange Zhai in Liaodong?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, it is Han Dong, the elder brother of Han Fu of the Liaodong General Army." Jiang Yong didn't dare to hide it, and hurriedly said.

Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Originally, the palace was still thinking about how to get some money out of the hands of these people, but now it seems that there is a way." Saying that, Zhu Hou looked at Liu Jin and instructed: "You can do this matter!" ”

As soon as he heard Zhu Houzhao's words, Liu Jin instantly understood, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Highness, rest assured, the slave maid will definitely handle things well and never let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince down." ”
