Why did Yang Cong come to Nantai Shipyard?

The reason is very simple, because the Jinling Longjiang Shipyard, the Qingjiang Shipyard in Northern Jiangsu, and the Weihe Shipyard in Shandong have basically been scrapped in the four major official shipyards of the Ming Dynasty, and only this Nantai Shipyard can still build warships.

There is another reason, which also makes him have to run in person, because this Nantai shipyard has a maritime tycoon behind his back, and if he doesn't come, others may not be able to control the scene.

Sure enough, as soon as the news of Lin Changshui's arrest spread, the entire Nantai Shipyard was soon paralyzed.

None of the thousands of craftsmen who had worked in the shipyard were gone, and all the docks were empty, and not even a single figure could be found.

The big merchants who used to supply timber and canvas to the shipyard, and even the small traders who sold iron nails and rivets are gone, and even if you have people, it seems that you don't want to start working.

This is still the result of Yang Cong letting people let out the rumors and point out that he was in charge of the Nantai Shipyard, otherwise, it is estimated that some local officials will run the shipyard to arrest people under the secret instruction of the maritime tycoons.

There is no way, the roots of the maritime giants in Zhejiang and Fujian provinces are too deep, and if ordinary people work with them in these two places, they will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

For example, Zhu Kun is an obvious example, the governor of Zhejiang, and the feudal officials of Chaoyipin were forced to commit suicide by them, and their power in Zhejiang and Fujian provinces can be seen.

Of course, Yang Cong is not an ordinary person, he has the support of Yangming Yimai, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Gonghou Xungui behind him, even if the maritime tycoon moves out of the backstage, Yan Song can't move him, and he is still a native of Fujian, and he is also not afraid of local forces.

None of these craftsmen have run away, what should I do?

Very simply, the shipyard lifting division has a yellow book of craftsmen, who is the surname of all the craftsmen in the shipyard, where they live, how many people are in the family, and so on, there are detailed records, and he only needs to find someone according to the yellow book.

Of course, he didn't arrest people when he was looking for someone, and he also knew that these craftsmen definitely didn't have the courage to confront him, a governor, and if they didn't come, they would definitely have a last resort, as long as they asked the reason.

Sure enough, he sent someone to inquire about the artisan household's house, and soon found out that it was not that these artisans were unwilling to work, but that their top boss had spoken and did not let them come to work.

This guy, hasn't Lin Changshui been arrested by the shipyard, and what other bosses do these craftsmen have?

Yang Cong ordered people to check, they really have a lot of bosses, these craftsmen are not directly under the head of the Lin Changshui, they also have the head of the craftsman, the commander and the officer, and even some of these craftsmen are military craftsmen, and they also have thousands of households, the general and the commander above them.

These people are basically local snakes, and ordinary officials really don't dare to do anything to them, but Yang Cong is obviously not among ordinary officials.

After he ordered someone to investigate, he issued an order to all the relevant officials, commanders, craftsmen, guard commanders, thousands of households, and the general of the water village, all of whom came to raise the yamen to wait for the dispatch, otherwise they would bear the consequences.

Was his order useful?

Early in the morning, before the hour came, he came to the hall of the Yamen and prepared to ascend to the hall.

Not to mention, these people are really bold, the time has passed, the middle of the lobby is still empty, there is no one, only two rows of brocade clothes and guards standing on both sides, the scene is extremely embarrassing.

Yang Cong frowned and sat there waiting for a while, then shouted outside: "Shen Lian." ”

Shen Lian of the Thousand Households of Jinyi Wei entered when he heard the voice, and said loudly: "My lord, what do you command?" ”

Yang Cong ordered without hesitation: "Go, bring all the officials, commanders and craftsmen of the shipyard to this official." ”

Shen Lian said yes, turned around and walked away.

Yang Cong then shouted outside, "Shisuke." ”

Yu Dayou, the new commander-in-chief of Fujian, entered in response to the call, and said loudly: "My lord, what do you command?" ”

Yang Cong ordered without hesitation: "Go, and bring the commander of the left, center, and right guards of Fuzhou, as well as the nearby Qianhu, Qianhu and Shuizhai, to the official." ”

Yu Dayou also obeyed the order, turned around and walked away.

At this time, both inside and outside Fuzhou City were fried, and the Governor actually sent the elite of Jinyi Guard and Tunwei to take people everywhere, and did not give these local snakes face at all.

Will these land snakes be caught?

Of course, they don't want to be arrested, but they can't be arrested without restraint, it is not ordinary officials who come to arrest people, but the elite of Jinyi Guards and Tun Guards.

Those officials, commanders, and craftsmen are at most relatives of ordinary squires, how dare they fight against the brocade guards.

Although those commanders, generals, and thousands of households have some people under them, compared to the well-equipped elite guards, they are not even fart, where can they resist.

After a commotion, the relevant officials, commanders, craftsmen, guard commanders, thousands of households, and Shuizhai generals were arrested one after another and "brought to justice" and escorted them to the Yamen Hall one by one.

Yang Cong didn't say anything, so he sat there coldly and waited, until the middle of the hall was full of people, Shen Lian and Yu Dayou came to deal with each other one after another, he picked up the startling wood, slapped it hard, and then said sharply: "You are so bold, you dare not even listen to the orders of the official, who gave you the guts?" ”

None of them replied, and although they were all tied there and couldn't move, there was no fear on their faces.

The governor of Zhezhi is a great official, but compared to Yan Songlai, a cabinet scholar, they are all registered court officials, not pirates, what can Yang Cong do to them!

How can Yang Cong drop them?

Of course, this matter is not something that Yang Cong can drip as much as he wants, the Ming Dynasty has a law, even if it is a governor, he has to act according to the law.

Yang Cong saw that the people below were silent, so he picked up the shocking wood again, slapped it hard, and then said sharply: "According to the "Da Ming Law. According to the regulations of the "Law of Officials", all officials who sprinkle, resist, or falsely accuse the officials in charge of the officials are regarded as disobedient to the officials, and those who are light will be given a cane of fifty, and they will be demoted to the common people, and those who are in a heavy position will be given a cane of eighty, and the border guards will be sent to fill the army! This official thinks that you are a first-time offender, so you should be regarded as a light offender, come on, drag out all these rebels who disobey Shangguan and beat them again! “

Damn, you dare!

As soon as his words fell, a crowd of people below howled.

"You are abusing lynching, who said that we disobeyed the officials!"

"Surnamed Yang, don't think you can cover the sky with one hand!"

"You dare to be so lawless, Lord Yan will not let you go!"

......

For a moment, the entire public hall was drowned out by howls, but Yang Cong turned a deaf ear.

Hmph, even you shrimp soldiers and crab generals dare to be presumptuous in front of Lao Tzu, so I will use you to kill chickens and monkeys!

Soon, the gang was dragged out by the brocade guards who swarmed in, and they were beaten on the ground.

All of a sudden, the entire lifting yamen was drowned out by screams again.

Good fellow, this Governor is so ruthless!
