Chapter 330: When It's Time to Confess, You Have to Confess (Sudden 4000 Words Plus Update)

At this point, Lin Weifeng really can't help but have any other ideas.

Either obediently obedient, or leave the salt merchant business and honestly do other jobs in the future.

If you dare to participate in the reselling of illicit salt or something in the future, according to the meaning of Zhang He's words, then you will definitely lose your head.

In response to Lin Weifeng's attitude just now, Zhang He felt very unhappy.

Lao Tzu discussed things with you well, or conveyed His Majesty's intentions and gave you a body of wealth, you are good, and you dare to be hypocritical with Lao Tzu?

Zhang He, who was unhappy in his heart, stretched out his hand to the Jinyiwei who was standing behind him, and Jinyiwei, who had been standing behind Zhang He without making a sound, took out a thin booklet from his arms and threw it next to Lin Weifeng.

After Zhang He took it, he threw it at Lin Weifeng without care, and sneered: "Look, if this Qianhu hadn't been for His Majesty's sake today, he would have left you a way out, hehe."

As for the pamphlet in your hand, you can take a look at it and see if there is any one that I have not kept in the file or has wronged you. ”

Lin Weifeng picked up the booklet, which looked like it was only a few dozen pages, opened it, and the cold sweat on his forehead immediately came down.

What is recorded above is a record of his own gifts, which has even been detailed to a certain year, month, and time, and what is the amount given to someone.

Although I have long heard that Jinyiwei has great powers, the information revealed in this record is too detailed.

- There are many records, except for myself, whether it is the man in the family or his wife and concubine, it can be said that no one knows it.

Even the housekeeper, who usually keeps an inch away from him, doesn't know very well, and can only say that he knows when he has entered the storehouse at home, and no one knows what he took and gave it to.

But on the booklet in front of me, from the day I showed my prominence in Yangzhou City, there was no mistake in the record on it.

There are even a few gifts that I can't even remember clearly.

And there are clear records about the salt primers that I made, when they were given to whom, as long as they were 100 catties or more.

Zhang He looked at Lin Weifeng, who was sweating profusely, and sneered: "You can try to leave a few of you here, and then pull those mansions under your command to pull the flag and rebel, and see who is better than Huang Taiji and Lin Dan Khan." ”

Lin Weifeng, who had a little strange thoughts in his heart just now, instantly extinguished the fire.

Although he said that he really had the urge to leave these brocade guards in the mansion just now, he still had a trace of reason after all.

Or the fear in his heart finally succeeded in suppressing what he thought in his heart and began to regain a trace of reason.

Not to mention the characters of Huang Taiji and Lin Dan Khan, even the people like Wang Er and Wang Zuohang in Shaanxi who dare to rebel with knives are definitely not comparable.

And who of the outlaws under his command would dare to follow him to raise the flag and rebel?

Rebellion is not a matter of inviting guests to drink and have a good time, but a major event to lose one's head and punish the nine clans.

Even if his subordinates dare to fight, who can not think about their wives and children?

What is the purpose of such a life on weekdays? It's not for the sake of the family.

After forcibly suppressing the good anger and fear in his heart, Lin Weifeng smiled and handed the pamphlet back to Zhang He, and arched his hand: "What is this saying about Lord Qianhu, the little one is a good person who abides by the law, although he said that he did many wrong things in the past, but he was also forced by life, and he had to do it. ”

Zhang He said with a smile: "If it weren't for Your Majesty's sake, for the sake of you taking more care of the poor people and doing more good deeds in the past, would you still be able to wait until today?" ”

After finishing speaking, Zhang He's face changed, stared at Lin Weifeng and said: "Ben Qianhu will ask you one last time, do you plan to take over the burden of the two Huai transfer envoys and serve the Son of Heaven so that you can live, or do you plan to change your career and be an honest rich man from now on?" ”

Looking at Lin Weifeng's entangled expression, Zhang He sneered again: "Think about it first, there is only one chance for many things." ”

When Zhang He said this, Lin Weifeng was even more entangled in his heart.

Now, if you are honest and obedient, and serve as the two envoys of this salt administration, the consequence will be hated by other salt merchants.

But if you don't take this job, you will be completely out of the ordinary, and you will be an honest rich man in the future.

But how many people have I offended over the years?

It's so much that I can't even remember it clearly......

But as the old saying goes, wealth is in danger.

Anyway, even if he is honestly a rich man now, he probably won't be able to fall well, but once he becomes this two-Huai transfer envoy, he can be regarded as having the identity of a high-level official.

Even if the former enemy wants to be unfavorable to him, he has to weigh it carefully, right?

After thinking about it, Lin Weifeng said to Zhang He with a smile on his face: "What Lord Qianhu said is that Xiaomin is willing to take over this burden and serve His Majesty. ”

Zhang He smiled: "Lord Lin is polite. Since this is the case, Lord Lin should prepare for his life, and after a few days, he will have a will. Ben Qianhu also took his leave first. ”

Lin Weifeng picked up the booklet on the table that Zhang He had forgotten, handed it to Zhang He, and said with a smile: "What did Lord Qianhu leave behind?" ”

Zhang He said with a smile: "You can take this thing and burn it." If Jin Yiwei wants to rectify people, he doesn't need these things. ”

Lin Weifeng smiled and put the booklet in his arms, and sent Zhang He and the others out with a smile on his face.

After sending Zhang He and the others away, Lin Weifeng returned to the house with a gloomy face and ordered someone to call the housekeeper in.

Lin Chengdong looked at Lin Weifeng with a gloomy face, and didn't know what made the master so unhappy, so he asked tentatively, "Master?" ”

After Lin Weifeng was awakened from his reverie by Lin Chengdong's voice, he threw away the booklet and ordered, "Take this thing and burn it."

Also, in the future, all the private salt business at home will be stopped, and we won't touch this thing. ”

Lin Chengdong carefully picked up the booklet, but he didn't even look at it, but asked carefully: "Master, the salt business at home is a big one, just let it go?"

Besides, the villagers, but there are still many people pointing at us? ”

Lin Weifeng sneered and said: "Although the salt business is a big one, and there is a lot of money, no matter how much money you have, you have to spend it." ”

Hearing Lin Weifeng's words, Lin Chengdong opened the booklet.

After only two pages, Lin Chengdong closed the booklet sweating profusely, looked at Lin Weifeng and asked, "Master?" ”

Lin Weifeng sneered: "We are brothers in our own family, and I won't hide it from you in this situation."

You don't know about the Jinyi guard coming to the door just now, this thing was given by them.

Also, the old man will be the two Huai transfer envoys of the Salt Administration Department in the future, and this kind of business will not be allowed in the Ming Dynasty in the future.

For folks, let's have another idea. You can't let the villagers have no place to go. ”

Hearing Lin Weifeng's words, Lin Chengdong also knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and there was no room for a turnaround.

For a while, the two brothers were a little sleepy and sorrowful.

After Zhang He and the others, who had left the Lin Mansion, returned to the Thousand Households, Zhang He called Chen Xicheng over and instructed: "You take your own people and escort Zhao Dongming to Jingshi, be careful halfway, the road is estimated to not be too peaceful." ”

Chen Xicheng arched his hand and said: "Please rest assured, my lordship is willing to take the head as a guarantee, and this Zhao Dongming will definitely go to the capital alive." ”

There has never been an impermeable wall in the world, and Daming is even more so.

Before Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne, even the marching route of the army could sometimes be leaked through the court, not to mention the fact that the relationship was not particularly big and Emperor Chongzhen had not deliberately blocked the news?

The news that Emperor Chongzhen planned to ban all private salt officials only reached the ears of the salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River from the capital after only ten days.

However, to Emperor Chongzhen's surprise, many salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River were not even in the mood to gather together to discuss, and they looked like they were admitting and admitting their suffering.

In the eyes of a group of salt merchants in Jiangnan, the imperial court did not allow the salt to be poured and did something else, and if it was a big deal, it was a big deal to pour rice, or do some other things, and there was no need to fight with the court on the matter of salt.

Besides, even if he really plans to raise troops and fight the court to the death, he has to be able to get through it, right?

At the very least, the salt merchants in Jiangnan felt that even if there were more outlaws under themselves and others, even if the number of outlaws was several times higher, they would not be able to defeat the army in the hands of Emperor Chongzhen.

Anyway, although the outlaws raised by himself and others dare to fight and kill, they don't have the courage to rebel, and they can't compare to those hungry rebels in Shaanxi, right?

Since these people don't have the courage to rebel, it's better to honestly listen to the orders of the court.

Moreover, the news from the family of Lin Weifeng, the head of the largest salt merchant, that the salt primers in the hands of these people can be exchanged for silver at the original price.

That's what matters most.

Although the salt primers in the hands of many salt merchants in Jiangnan are somewhat different, after all, there are many ways that are not clear, or simply put it bluntly, it is equivalent to not spending money to get it.

At this point, everyone is actually the same, and no one is clean.

If the news of the imperial court's redemption of the purchase of salt at the original price is true, then in this way, it is equivalent to that each of these salt merchants has obtained a lot of silver out of thin air, and it can be regarded as getting some benefits.

Comparing the two, on the one hand, they were cut off after they couldn't get it, and on the other hand, they were able to take a lot of silver for nothing, and the Jiangnan salt merchants who thought they were not stupid made the same choice.

Honestly obey the instructions, and when the money is exchanged, he will change to another career.

This made some of the followers prepared by Emperor Chongzhen in advance lose their original meaning.

In Emperor Chongzhen's view, according to the urine nature of the salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, it is impossible not to have some fun for themselves, and there will be a few places to raise flags to rebel.

The reaction of the salt merchants in Jiangnan was to make Emperor Chongzhen completely realize that he had overestimated the courage of these salt merchants.

At this time, the salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River were having a headache, and Zheng Zhilong, who was not too far from Yangzhou, was also having a headache.

Unlike the salt merchants who changed their careers for silver or changed their careers in the future, Zheng Zhilong's headache was Emperor Chongzhen's will to kill whales.

The devil knows how there are so many whales, as if they can't be killed.

Even if ten whales correspond to a prince, this Ming Dynasty does not have so many princes at all!

I am basically hunting every three or five days now, and the whale meat in my hand is more than 100,000 catties.

If it is said that the princes of the Ming Dynasty will die, I am afraid that the princes of the Ming Dynasty should die now.

With so much whale meat, even if one person eats five catties a day, it is estimated that it is enough for more than 200,000 people to eat for a whole day.

If there is too much whale meat, it doesn't smell good on the shore, and what makes Zheng Zhilong's head even more headache is that Emperor Chongzhen didn't mention when this thing will stop hunting.

Even if you can kill that one whale in three or five days, not to mention that sometimes after encountering a large group of whales, you may hunt two or three or even three or five whales.

Nowadays, the whale meat is increasing day by day, and it can even be said that it is increasing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye.

However, it takes time for the meat to be cured or dried.

Watching the small sheds on the beach slowly erected, the scale of the area occupied is getting bigger and bigger, and the smell is getting more and more fishy, Zheng Zhilong has a headache even more.

Rubbing his forehead, Zheng Zhilong asked Zheng Zhifeng, "How is it?" No news yet? ”

Zheng Zhifeng replied with a black line on his face: "Big brother is too anxious, even if there is news in the capital, it will take more than a month to come to us, right?" ”

Zheng Zhilong said angrily: "Time! Time! I also know the time! But you smell it, what does it smell like now? Can you still stay stupid? ”

Zheng Zhifeng was helpless, and said in a muffled voice: "What can I do then?" Can't you just transport the freshly peeled whale meat away, won't it all stink on the road by then? ”

Although Zheng Zhilong knew that what Zheng Zhifeng said was the truth, he was still angry in his heart. After standing for a long time, Zheng Zhilong, who didn't want to smell this fishy smell anymore, said angrily: "Go!" ”

Zheng Zhifeng's head was a little unable to turn at this time, and asked rhetorically, "Where are we going?" ”

Zheng Zhilong also said in a muffled voice: "What else can you do?" Let's go hunt this! Before His Majesty's will comes down, do you dare to stop this matter? ”

Zheng Zhifeng rolled his eyes and said to Zheng Zhilong: "Actually, there is another way. ”

Zheng Zhilong is very interested now, is there any way to keep himself from getting these whale meat for the time being?

Zheng Zhifeng said: "Big brother, do you still remember Liu Xiang?" ”
