Poor Lin Zhixian chose to go along with the same stream or be a lackey under Yang Xin's obscenity......

What can he do?

He's also helpless!

He is a seven-pin county from a high family, and in the face of this kind of traitorous minister who is powerful all over the world, do you continue to gnaw on the chaff dumplings? He didn't want to live that nightmare like life again, he couldn't run away from Xiangshan County, and it wasn't that those big people in Guangzhou were far away and could behave arrogantly outside Yang Xin's claws.

Since you can't resist, just close your eyes and enjoy!

Anyway, the eunuch party is still very promising at present.

In short, he was wronged and returned to Xiangshan County.

He then immediately rejected the order to strictly control smuggling jointly issued by the Political Envoy and the Inspectorate as if it were a strong order, and after Governor Yang had already issued a new tax law in his capacity as the premier of Guangdong, the sale of grain and other commodities to Macao had become a legal trade.

Since it's legal, it's a fart!

This order issued by the two divisions is completely inexplicable.

Lin Zhixian, as a principled person, would never carry out such an order.

At the same time, the gentry outside Xiangshan also disobeyed this, patting their chests in front of local officials and promising that they would not let a grain of rice enter Macao, but at the same time, the white ships continued to flock to Macao, and even the white ships from Fujian joined in. As for the coastal garrisons, they turned a blind eye, even the Ming army of the Nanhaiwei, Guanghaiwei, Jieshiwei and even Hutouguan, and so on in the coastal guard system, also ignored the so-called smuggling in their own defense areas.

Even these guards simply joined the trade.

They will not be stupid enough to look at the silver and not make money, they can indeed make a little money before, but as the bottom of the officialdom food chain, they can make very limited money, after all, the power is in the hands of civilian officials, and they can only drink soup with it. Yang Xin did not let them even drink the soup, but the problem was that Yang Xin also put the opportunity to eat meat in front of them, and the whole of the Guangdong Health Office was involved in smuggling, but now they are simply doing it openly, anyway, Yang Xin is still very face-saving to them......

The Governor of Macao, the Coastal Military Affairs, and the Prime Minister of the Guangdong Customs Yamen, Yang Xin drank with the sea breeze and several called generals to enjoy the sea view in the warm breeze of spring.

"Brother Yan is also from Liaodong, right?"

Yang Xin said.

"Back to the governor, before the last general, he was the capital of Liaodong."

Yan Yikui, the capital of Guangdong palm prints, said with a smile.

"I said, why do I think I've heard the name of Brother Yan somewhere, as for Fang Shen, he will be the martial champion, right?"

Yang Xin said to another general.

"Back to the governor, the last general Wanli forty-six years of martial arts first."

Coastal Defense General Fang Yifeng hurriedly replied.

"That's the martial champion, I will play to Your Majesty when I turn around, in the future, we will also have to test the martial arts, they will try the champion in the liberal arts, and we will also have the champion in the martial arts, can't we lower them in the martial arts, right?"

Yang Xin said.

"The Governor is wise!"

Chaozhou deputy general soldier Yu Zhigao said excitedly.

"Brother Yu, there are not many people that Yang really admires, so Zun Wu Xianggong is one!"

Yang Xin said.

Well, Deputy Chief Yu and his father are Yu Dayou.

As for the ability......

This must be a big gap with his father, and his father has been dead for more than 40 years, and Deputy General Yu is actually a handful of old soldiers, in short, Deputy General Yu was originally beaten by pirates in history, and was beheaded after being defeated and fled, and the pirate who beat him was studying his excessive taxes with the tax collector thirty meters away at the moment.

Well, he was defeated by Zheng Zhilong.

"Everyone, we are all a family, how Yang is to his brother, I think you also know, but everyone who is friends with Yang is currently on the rise.

For example, Zhang Shenwu was originally just a guilty body, but now he is a general of the Korean Army.

For example, Cao Wenzhao went from Xiaoqi to General Soldier in three years.

For example, Qi Jin, who has been stumbling all his life, directly controlled one party after following Yang.

I am a very simple person, whoever treats me as a brother I will treat him as a brother, I will share the blessings with whoever I treat, the silver is not important to me, I am not short of silver, I did not come to Guangdong for silver, I paid 400,000 yuan to contract the Guangdong Customs, and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to feed these warships and anti-smuggling teams, just to solve the problem of Guangzhou Customs for His Majesty.

You all know how much silver comes in a year.

In the same way, you know very well where all the money goes.

On the one hand, the brothers who have no money in the court are suffering, and on the other hand, there are mountains of gold and silver made by those civil officials and gentry, which is inevitably too unfair, if overseas trade is a piece of cake, then they share too much of this cake, which is definitely not good. It must be re-divided, and it must be divided more fairly, and this is the purpose of the customs tax, and we don't want much, only 400,000 yuan, and I think this amount is already very low, at least compared to what the civil officials and local gentry get.

They could have come without me.

If someone in Guangdong had come out to pack this customs before, then I wouldn't have come to Guangdong at all.

But they are too greedy.

They are reluctant to give us even 400,000.

Since they are reluctant to give us even 400,000, then I can only come to get it in person, but since I came, it is not 400,000, I have covered Guangdong Customs for a year, if no one has covered it next year, then I will continue to wrap it until this local tax collector comes out, I am not afraid to play with them for ten years, if I really make more than one million a year at the customs, then I may not be willing to leave.

As for you, I know you've all been affected to some extent......"

Yang Xin said.

"The governor is serious, and the governor will not hesitate to break the house for His Majesty, and I have nothing to worry about waiting for a little thing."

Yu Zhigao hurriedly said.

Several others also said they didn't care.

"But I care!"

Yang Xin said.

"I feel that my brothers belong to the pond fish, so I have to make a little compensation to you brothers, and I would like to invite you to form a firm to run the trade of the South Seas, and I am building a new type of sailing ship, which is faster and more suitable for sailing in the wind, avoiding the restrictions of the trade season, and can go south or return at any time of the year, so that you can make a lot of money.

But I think there's something good like this to share with you.

And not just you.

The generals of these health centers in Guangdong can join.

Do you know how the red-haired man came to the East?

That's how they are, investors join forces to form a firm that not only trades, but also keeps its own fleet, occupies small countries overseas, plunders their treasury, captures them as slaves, and even builds their own forts overseas. Since they can do it, then why can't we, we can also form such a business, I will go to Your Majesty for permission, and Your Majesty will allow us to crusade against the unsubordinate overseas.

It's a big deal that we contribute a portion of our income to Your Majesty. ”

He went on to say.

At this time, the trade between the Ming Dynasty and the South Seas is very simple, that is, the south in winter, the north in summer, you can run a round trip a year, whether it is the hard sailing ship of the Ming Dynasty or the soft sailing ship of Europe, it is to follow this principle, because the merchant ship has too high requirements for the wind direction, although it cannot be said that the headwind can not sail, but the efficiency is very low, it can be said that there is no meaning of sailing. But his schooners were able to circumvent this restriction so that he did not have to limit himself to one round trip a year, especially to Batavia, where there was no pressure to set sail from Canton for two round trips a year, and the Portuguese could sail from Goa once a year.

Then you can start the colonial era of the Ming Dynasty.

But he certainly can't himself.

Because he didn't have that many people willing to run out, his crew was the limit to get here.

But all the local guards in Guangdong are people.

Especially Yu Zhigao's subordinates, he, the deputy general of Chaozhou, is actually the one on Nanao Island, and this guy himself is engaged in smuggling, and has a close relationship with Li Dan, he has a collaborator who is considered a black glove is Li Dan's brother Xu Xinsu, although Xu Xinsu did not really become his subordinate at this time, but at least he is already a collaborator.

The smuggling of the coastal garrisons of the Ming Dynasty was equally serious.

There are even ...... who play the role of pirates attacking North Korea

Well, it's true.

Under the command of the general army, the Zhejiang Navy Division warship pretended to be a pirate to attack and harass North Korea, and it was Yan Yikui, the palm print next to him, who dealt with this matter at that time.

But the smuggling of these Ming troops was not very harmful.

Because the reason why they smuggle is only because they can't use other ways to divide the cake, if they have the right to trade legally, why should they take this risk, the smuggling along the coast of Guangdong is forced out, because the number of ships introduced each year is limited and controlled by civilian officials. The Portuguese merchant ships went to Macao, and after completing the drawing, they reported the list of goods they needed to the city and the city to send the silver to the city and the city, and the city called the thirty-six lines to receive the silver according to their respective industries, and it was impossible for outsiders to intervene.

Especially the military.

Civil officials will not take such a good thing for them.

Then they can only use their power to smuggle, and it is smuggling from top to bottom, and the sentinels, generals, and garrisons are all involved.

Yang Xin can indeed deter them.

The sword of Shang Fang in his hand and his reputation for killing gods still worked.

But there is no need to force them into the enemy, on the contrary, they should be guided and use their advantages to become a real maritime development group, in the final analysis, these people are still worthy of recognition, Yu Zhigao did not fight Zheng Zhilong, and the soldiers were defeated and escaped and beheaded, but he was the main force in the battle of Penghu, and it was he who beat the Dutch out of Penghu. And Fang Yifeng later died in the battle with the Dutch, which should show that the smuggling of these coastal defense generals is still worthy of recognition in terms of fulfilling their duties.

Therefore, Yang Xin is more willing to reform them, especially when he fights viciously with civilian officials, and cannot force them into hostile ranks.
