Chapter 283 The Pavilion Elder Travels to Prison
Edict of Prison.
"Governor!"
Xu Xianchun said.
Yang Xin, who rushed to the two venues last night, nodded a little absent-mindedly.
He was promoted again.
Although he doesn't care about the official position, but with such a great contribution, it is definitely not possible not to be promoted, and he skipped the governor of Tongzhi and was directly promoted to the right governor of the military capital, so Yang Tushi can be renamed Yang Dudu in the future, but it doesn't make much sense, that is, he has increased his salary by a few hundred taels a year.
"This is the Fan family?"
Yang Xin looked at a half-old man covered in bruises in the prison.
The latter looked at him with a dying breath.
"This is Fan Yongdou's father Fan Ming, these dog things are really rich, the Fan family copied out more than 500,000 yuan, reported 200,000 yuan, and left 100,000 yuan for the governor."
Xu Xianchun said.
"Drink for the brothers!"
Yang Xin waved his hand casually and said.
He didn't give Xu Xianchun and Jiu Qiansui these people this time, and all of Liaodong's minions were given to those minions, but he gave all the extortion of the Fan family and the Bao family, including the Yangzhou salt merchants on the pretext of this matter, to Jinyiwei and Dongchang, and he didn't want as much as these people wanted, as a kind of compensation.
It is said that their gang of corrupt officials and corrupt officials have also gained weight quickly because of him in recent years, especially after Tianqi acquiesced to the bail system, these eagles and dogs were obviously happy, and Tian Ergeng had personally taken the brocade guards to Yangzhou. However, he will definitely not be as unscrupulous as Yang Xin, Yang Xin can arrest people, but if he dares to do so, he probably won't leave alive, but no matter what, there is no pressure to extort hundreds of thousands of salt merchants from this.
Yang Xin also did not support the purge of salt merchants, and could extort these people from time to time, and occasionally caught one or two raiders.
But cleaning doesn't work.
In the absence of a better salt system, these salt merchants in Yangzhou guaranteed a supply of salt, and whether they were smuggling or operating legally, they were the most important part of the Ming salt supply.
Without them, they will make a big mess.
The same is true of Jin merchants.
Jin merchants are indeed smuggling, and they can indeed be called traitors and traitors.
But one thing must be understood.
The food supply of the nine sides also depends on them, even if they collude with officials and businessmen to hoard Juqi, speculate on grain prices and even smuggle to Jiannu, but they also send grain to the nine sides, whether it is Xuanfu, Datong or even Liaodong or even Shaanxi and Gansu, the lack of grain is solved through the trade of Jin merchants. Unless Yang Xin can establish a new food supply system, the Jin merchants will still have to be retained, just like dealing with the salt merchants, they can extort from time to time, and they can occasionally copy a family, but the cleaning will also cause a big mess.
Liaodong is better, now Yang Xin has a way to replace it, as long as he builds enough new warships in Dagukou, these ships can be used to transport grain to Liaodong.
But not in the Northwest.
That can only rely on Jin Shang.
"He still has a son, right?"
Yang Xin suddenly remembered.
"Fan Yongdou? He does have a son, but because of his young age, he has no official position with his daughter. ”
Xu Xianchun said.
"Bring it in!"
Yang Xin said.
"Uh, understood!"
Xu Xianchun said.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the three generations of the famous imperial merchant Fan family came to an end.
It's all a small role.
"This is Bao Chengxian's family, do you want to put it all in the palace?"
Xu Xianchun asked, pointing to the other side.
"The small ones are taken into the palace, but including Fan Yongdou's son, don't stay in the capital, throw them to the southern capital to Li Shi, and hand them over to me as an adult man, and I have to use a lot of coolies when I go back, and I don't care about the female dependents."
Yang Xin said.
It doesn't mean that it's an official prostitute.
There are new people in the three institutes of the Teaching Workshop Division, and I will look for a chance to patronize it, and I can still use it if there are Qingqi people or something. As for the ones he had drawn in Liaodong before, they had already been sent to the camps of the Dangkou army in Tianjin, where a large number of female workers were needed for food processing. Although this food processing is actually grinding sweet potato pulp, baking pancakes, or killing fish and burning fire in a cannery, and the high-end ones are only making vermicelli and flour skin, but this can also replace those men.
The latter is still a Dangkou army to be precise......
Well, no.
The Dangkou Army was officially disbanded, leaving only the base in Henglin.
This is the fulfillment of previous commitments.
After the Battle of Zhenjiang, the civilian officials were even more pressed about this issue, and the development of this army was obviously a little beyond their imagination, and such a strong army, which was completely controlled by the eunuchs, posed a serious threat to them and had to be destroyed. And at this time, the reduction of the river has been completed, this more than 100 miles long, obliquely inserted into the saline-alkali area of Jinnan artificial river, has begun to wash the salt in the land with river water, and even winter wheat has begun to be planted, next year spring seedlings, after harvesting wheat just transplanted seedlings.
Twice a year!
The original saline-alkali land was instantly transformed into fertile land.
Of course, others can only be greedy, it is Yang Dudu's land, the temple gave it to him, whoever dares to touch his land is estimated to have to come here.
But the same task of the Bandit Army was accomplished.
There was no need to keep this army, which was originally temporary, and finally, under their constant urging, Apocalypse officially ordered the disbandment of the Dangkou army. Of course, all the Bandits were automatically converted into Yang Xin's hired laborers immediately afterward, so what should they do, and when they needed it one day, they could be converted back into the Bandits with just a holy decree.
It's just a fool.
"There aren't enough torture tools here!"
Yang Xin walked around the most gloomy prison in the Ming Dynasty as if inspecting the work, and a pair of hateful eyes appeared next to him from time to time, saying that because of Luo Sigong's incompetence before, the vast majority of the current prisoners in this prison were sent by him, and it was very cordial to see him at this moment.
"Well, at this time, almost all of the torture tools used by our Daming are here."
Xu Xianchun said.
He is still very proud of that.
The edict prison under his management has completely changed the quiet and peaceful era of Luo Sigong, and is truly developing towards the demon cave.
"Then add some foreign ones, which also have to learn from each other's strengths, such as pear blossom pestles, iron women and interrogation chairs, etc., I personally prefer iron women, that is, iron boxes in the shape of a woman are cast with iron, the size of an adult should be exactly one adult, and it can be pushed in half, and half of them can be made into several long nails, but the position should avoid all the vital parts, and the person can be closed when he puts it in."
Yang Xin said.
"Quick, write it down."
Xu Xianchun hurriedly said to the subordinates who followed him.
The latter hastened to make a note of it.
"This thing is good, it's tightly done and a little light doesn't penetrate it, and then you lock people inside, and you won't be able to stand it in a few days, but it's easy to suffocate to death."
Xu Xianchun said.
"You can do a few more curved snorkels so you don't suffocate."
Yang Xin said.
"Those snorkels are made more chic, and it's better to make the people inside listen to all the sounds outside like ghosts crying wolves."
Xu Xianchun said.
"Haha, you're very wise!"
Yang Xin said.
Then Xu Xianchun also smiled quite proudly.
"Governor of the capital, palm prints, several pavilion elders arrived, saying that they came to inspect by order."
A brocade guard walked over and said.
"Ah, then ask the elders to visit the prison!"
Yang Xin said.
Then the two of them went out, a group of elders outside were in the courtyard, at this time the courtyard of the edict prison was still growing grass, in fact, there were tweeds, in order to be elegant, Xu Xianchun made the front yard of this prison like a garden, and there were quite some flowers in this season. It is a group of small dogs on the edge of the flowers, Tibetan mastiffs, Mongolian shepherd dogs, etc., which immediately distort the atmosphere here, but it is a pity that there are not a few wild beasts, and a few wild wolves are raised.
And when Yang Xin and the others arrived in a hurry, several elders were waiting impatiently in the barking of dogs......
"Elder Han Ge, Elder Liu Ge, Elder Zhu Ge, Elder He Ge, Elder Shi Ge, all Elder Pavilions, Yang Mou has lost his welcome, please forgive me."
Yang Xin said.
It can be seen that he still has a lot of respect for the elders.
"Governor Yang, I'm busy with official business, let's go in quickly!"
Han Yi said impatiently.
Because Fang Congzhe doesn't care about anything, he is actually the acting first assistant.
In this case, Yang Xin will not be verbose.
Immediately afterwards, the two of them accompanied the elders to the back prison.
This is Sun Degong, he was bribed by Huang Shu and others for 200,000 taels, deliberately created a rout on the battlefield to lead Xiong Tingbi to stop it, and then took advantage of the chaos to assassinate Xiong Tingbi, and led the troops to flee, resulting in the rout of tens of thousands of troops. This is the murder weapon he used, this is a confession, including the confession of his family, the confession of his family, it can be said that the evidence is conclusive, and he himself has confessed, and now he is waiting for the Ming canonical punishment, Liu Ge Lao, do you want to take a look! ”
Yang Xin said with a stack of confessions, as well as a wheel lighter found on Sun Degong's body.
Sun Degong suddenly opened his eyes.
At the moment when Liu Yixiao took over the confession, he pounced all of a sudden......
"Liu Yixiao, you instructed Wang Huazhen to buy me to assassinate Xiong Tingbi, you promised to keep me safe afterwards, you liar, I won't let you go!"
Sun Degong roared.
Then he stretched out his hand and grabbed Liu Yixiao's clothes and dragged them, Liu Yixiao was old after all, and he couldn't compare with a military general like him, so he was dragged to the wooden fence all of a sudden. The Jinyi guard next to him unceremoniously picked up the short stick and smashed it on Sun Degong's wrist, Sun Degong let go of his hand with a scream, and Yang Xin quickly snatched Liu Ge Lao in front, and Liu Ge Lao tidied up his clothes somewhat angrily.
"Liu Yixian, you liars, I won't let you go......"
Sun Degong continued to howl.
"Liu Ge Lao, this guy has been trying to frame you as the mastermind, but fortunately, Yang knows that Ge Lao is a human being and never believes him!"
Yang Xinyi said rhetorically.
Liu Yixiao's face was gloomy and he wiped the sweat from his head.
Then he brushed his sleeves away......
"Elder Liu Ge, if you leave, and someone frames you again, Yang will not be able to help you!"
Yang Xin shouted.
Liu Yixiao immediately stopped.
"Is the old man afraid of framing?"
He sneered.
Then he came back proudly.
Several other pavilion elders looked at each other, and Han Yi looked at Liu Yixiao with a hint of solemnity.
