Volume 3 Chapter 11 Killing Chickens and Monkeys
Yang Cong is rich, and he is not ordinary rich, he is an authentic son of a rich family, and the assets of the Yang family in Hui'an are at least more than two million taels, and the old lady Yang Rong has also fulfilled his promise, and the assets of the entire Yang family are under his control.
He had slowly transferred the gold and silver in his family to the north, and at this time, at least one million taels worth of gold and silver had been hoarded in Beizhili and Shanxi.
Originally, he wanted to use all this gold and silver to buy grain and exchange it for salt, but at this time, most of this gold and silver could not be used, because he was suddenly appointed by Jiajing to patrol the Xuanfu, and the fake fake is also a feudal official, who dares to accept the example money of his family, more than 60,000 yuan, and more than 600,000 taels of example money, even if it is saved, he is ready to use all this money to build a logistics base!
50,000 taels of silver, he really gave Li Fengming on the same day, Li Fengming was stunned for a long time, with this silver, the relocation was fast, with his order, more than 2,000 Tun guard households began to move to the east, west and south of the city.
In fact, they didn't need any silver to relocate, because Xuanhua Mansion City was originally a military town, and more than 20,000 military households lived in the city before the Tartars entered the city, and there were many empty courtyards in the east, west and south of the city.
However, it is not so simple for others to relocate.
Ordinary people are better to say, as long as they give silver, they will move, at this time the houses and land in Xuanhua Mansion City are not worth much, a courtyard of a few hundred square meters to give ten taels of silver is good, because at this time there may be a war here, people are in a hurry to move out, the houses are rotten and cheap, and even some people have sneaked away, and the silver does not know who to go.
However, those local tyrants and squires are not easy to talk to, because their family has a big business, and it is not very convenient to move, and many people are used to living in their own mansions and don't want to move at all, even if they give money, they don't want to move.
This can make Li Fengming miserable, he is coercing and tempting to try his best, busy for three days and three nights, more than ten local tyrants and squires in the north of the city He persuaded five households, and seven or eight households, dead or alive, refused to move.
There's no way, these days are heavy on literature and light on martial arts, he is a military general and no one cares about him at all, but anyone who has something to do with the court is not afraid of him, even if he brings hundreds of soldiers to the door, it's useless, people just sit there and don't move, what can you do with people!
He really didn't dare to deal with people, and asked others to initiate a relationship and sue the court, then he would be in trouble, and some people couldn't even hold that relationship.
On the fourth day, he really couldn't think of a way, so he could only report to Yang Cong.
At this time, Yang Cong has moved into a large mansion of more than 200 acres, this mansion was originally a residence of the deputy chief soldier, but the deputy chief soldier returned to his hometown to recuperate after he was old, so he left a steward to watch here to see if he could sell the mansion, Yang Cong directly threw three hundred taels of silver over, and the people took the silver and left.
This mansion is naturally not as generous as Yang Cong's mansion in the capital, but there are five entrances in front and back, and there are many rooms, which is more than enough to live in his family, and even a hundred brocade guards living in the front yard do not seem to be very crowded.
This morning, he was directing his guards to tidy up the public hall and study in the courtyard of Erjin, when the brocade guards outside suddenly came to report, and the chief soldier Li Fengming asked to see him.
Li Fengming is quite honest, although his face shows helplessness from time to time, but his orders are never discounted, Yang Cong is still quite satisfied with this chief soldier, when he heard that people are coming, he should even leave what he is doing and come directly to the front yard to greet him.
At this time, Li Fengming's opinion of Yang Cong has also changed slightly, at least he admires Yang Cong more in the matter of spending money, 50,000 taels of silver, people didn't blink their eyes when they took it out, and he also inquired clearly, this silver is not from the court at all, it is from the Yang family, this guy is really bold.
It's a pity that he got the silver but couldn't do anything, he was really a little ashamed in his heart, so when Yang Cong came out, his face was red with shame.
When Yang Cong saw him like this, he couldn't help but care: "General Li, what's wrong with you?" ”
Li Fengming lowered his head and said ashamedly: "My lord, the last general is not doing well, now there are still seven or eight families in the north of the city who refuse to move out, and the last general really has no choice, please punish the adult." ”
And this kind of thing?
Yang Cong couldn't help but be curious: "Who are they, why don't you want to move away?" ”
Li Fengming said honestly: "They are all local squires, the kind who have some connections in the imperial court, they just refuse to leave their former residence, and it is useless to say anything." ”
Nima, these squires again, give me trouble.
Yang Cong pondered for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Who among these squires has the hardest relationship?" ”
Li Fengming said bluntly: "The relationship between the Zhang family near the north gate is the hardest, the old lady of the Zhang family is from Jinshi, and he has also served as the prefect of Huzhou. ”
Sani is nay, isn't he just a prefect, he's still a Zhishi, what a madness!
Yang Cong immediately shouted: "Shen Lian, gather people." ”
When Shen Lian heard this, he hurriedly ran to the front yard and shouted, and soon, a hundred brocade guards were assembled.
Yang Cong was not verbose, he directly greeted Li Fengming, and then walked towards the north gate with Jinyiwei.
The mansion he bought was originally in the north of the city, less than a mile away from the north gate, and soon, the group came to the outside of the Zhang Mansion compound under the guidance of Li Fengming.
Yang Cong took a look, this guy, the courtyard wall is longer than the mansion he newly bought, and it is estimated that there are at least four or five hundred acres inside.
This Zhang family is so big, the mansion occupies half a street!
He smiled darkly, and then waved his hand and led the brocade guard inside.
The Zhang family's family and the nursing courtyard naturally didn't dare to stop them when they saw that it was Jinyiwei, so they could only rush to the inner courtyard in a panic to report the news, but the old lady of the Zhang family was not afraid at all when he heard the news, because he knew that this patrol was just a seven-grade imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate, although he had great power, he couldn't control the officials of Zhishi.
Yang Cong took Jinyiwei all the way into the inner house, and saw an old man with a rich face sitting in the middle of the lobby of the inner house, and he didn't even mean to get up to greet him.
He squinted his eyes and stared coldly at the old man for a while, but the old man was not only not afraid, but also showed a mocking look in his eyes.
It was clear that the old man was despising him.
Sani Nai, you and I are Li Fengming!
Yang Cong waved his hand without hesitation: "Take it." ”
Shen Lian was not ambiguous, when he rushed in with someone, lifted the old lady of the Zhang family from his seat, twisted his hands back, and tied a strong knot.
The old lady of the Zhang family immediately said angrily: "You guys, is there any royal law?" ”
Yang Cong stepped forward with his hands in his hands and sneered: "Wang Fa? Okay, this official will tell you about the royal law, your mansion is at least four or five hundred acres, how much money has been spent to build it, how long have you been an official, and how much money is it, do you want to go to the edict prison to calculate it
When the old lady of the Zhang family heard the words "edict prison", he was immediately frightened, of course he knew what Yang Cong meant by this, a prefect is just a prefect, how many money can be built, build such a big mansion, it is strange that he is not greedy for money, and he will recruit anything if he enters the "edict prison" and has not been beaten.
He was so frightened that his legs weakened, and he stammered: "My lord, there is something to say, there is something to say." ”
Yang Cong didn't bother to talk to him, so he snorted coldly: "To move, or not to move?" ”
This guy is too ruthless, if he doesn't move, he will send people to prison, who dares not to move.
The old lady of the Zhang family was immediately instigated, and he found a good yard in the east of the city to move over that day.
Yang Cong's trick of killing chickens and monkeys was really powerful, and the next day, the remaining few families also moved honestly, and the entire north of the city was suddenly empty.
