As a traverser, now this Chongzhen Emperor certainly knows the dangers of Fan Yongdou and other Jin merchants collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and of course he can't wait to break them into pieces immediately.

But to arrest and execute them, it is necessary to combine them with the general climate of the entire national environment, so that the benefits can be maximized.

As an emperor, especially an emperor who no longer cares about his reputation, of course he can not care about any evidence at all, and can directly instruct Jinyiwei or Dongchang to directly take down Fan Yongdou and other eight imperial merchants after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, and even take down all the characters related to them.

But if he did, then what difference would he have had from some of the mischievous monarchs in history?

In particular, if he did this, wouldn't it be contrary to his request that the Imperial Inspectorate and the Imperial Historians of the Six Branch Corridors pay attention to truthfulness and evidence in everything?

Not to mention how the courtiers in the court should rebound and how they will make endless trouble, even the national policy of opening the sea and trade with him, setting up a field along the border, and trading with various Mongolian ministries also conflicts with each other!

Besides, wouldn't it be better to fatten these people first, and then kill them when they have no money!

You must know that these Shanxi businessmen rely on the capital obtained by operating border trade, and they are involved in many industries, and you only need to look at the Shanxi guild halls and Shanxi guild halls that spread all over the Great Wall and inside and outside the Great Wall in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and you can know where the tentacles of this Qin and Jin official business group have penetrated.

If you want to eradicate the Jin merchant group in Zhangjiakou, Hukou and even the nine sides, it is not just the nine sides, whether the Shanxi Guild Hall in Beijing should be moved, whether the Shanxi Guild Hall or the Shanxi Guild Hall along the canal should be moved, and whether the Qin and Jin Hao merchant families who have invested in the Eight Great Families and their Shanxi Chamber of Commerce should be moved?

It is precisely in consideration of these factors, big or small, that Emperor Chongzhen did not do anything to these traitorous merchants in Zhangjiakou.

And when some of these people, such as the Fan family, gradually transferred a considerable part of foreign trade to kill Hukou, they slowly faded out of the sight of Jinyi Wei Xuanfu Qianhu Qianhu Sun Key and others.

And Zu Zerun, the eldest son of Zu Dashou, who followed his father Zu Dashou to Datong Town, served as the commander of the thousand households of Jinyi Wei Datong not long after he arrived in Datong.

It stands to reason that this is not in accordance with the rules, and you let the son supervise the father, how can he do such a thing?

But now this Emperor Chongzhen is precisely through this arrangement to show his trust and kindness to Zu Dashou.

It's a pity that Zu Zerun is a typical gentleman, and he doesn't have his father's demeanor at all.

In addition to using his authority in Jinyiwei Datong Qianhu to squeeze out and attack the non-Liaodong generals in Datong Town, he put his main energy on spying and collecting the black materials of the prison army Yushi Wu.

As for the tasks that the border town Jinyi Wei Qianhu should undertake to spy on the enemy outside the border, counter-espionage and eliminate internal traitors, Zu Zerun did not pay attention to it at all.

Those Jin merchants contacted Zu Dacheng and gave Zu Dacheng a beautiful house and asked for help, as a thousand households in Jinyi Wei Datong Town, Zu Zerun of course knew.

However, on the one hand, Zu Dacheng is Zu Zerun's uncle, and Zu Zerun has been accustomed to such things as early as when he was in Liaodong, and he doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with saying it.

Some businessmen engaged in border trade offered bribes and gifts to the guards guarding the border gates, and in Zu Zerun's view, this was a normal thing.

Without the bribes of these merchants who walk outside the border all year round, would these border guards be allowed to drink the northwest wind!

On the other hand, after all, the overall situation of the imperial court's opening of border markets was here, and it was the imperial court's major policy to encourage inland merchants to participate in the Rongchang trade, so he simply took these things to heart.

Over time, the Jinyi Wei Ji in the mouth of the killer Hu listened to the happy sitting, and no longer paid attention to the dirty things between these businessmen and Zu Dacheng.

As a result, when Hukou fell and the Jianyu army swarmed in, these happy Hukou Jinyi guards were naturally wiped out along with other people in the city.

Because the owners and shopkeepers of the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce in Hukou led by the Fan family firm, in order to cover up their crimes of betraying the country and being willing to do their own thing, they persuaded Yanguli and Mang Gurtai and others to carry out a massacre in the killing of Hukou.

However, he ran away with a fish that slipped through the net, that is, Jiang Bin.

If Jiang Jian hadn't escaped in time and saw with his own eyes the armed attack of the Chamber of Commerce in Hukou, who would have been able to say what was going on in Hukou?

However, the situation has developed to this point, although there are some situations that even he did not expect, but on the whole, the current situation is not beyond the control of the current Emperor Chongzhen.

If Jianlu didn't have these profiteers to respond in the killing of Hukou, would they still brazenly go south?

If they don't go south, then they will have to fight a decisive battle with their hundreds of thousands of elite cavalry on the open, flat and endless Monan grassland, is this what they want?

If Jianyu did not go south, and he was unwilling to start a decisive battle with Jianyu on the Monan grassland, then would he be like Emperor Chongzhen in history, watching the Monan grassland fall into the hands of Jianyu and be indifferent?

Fortunately, all these problems are no longer a problem.

On the evening of the same day, in the Yongsheng Building of Juyongguan, all the civil and military ministers present by Emperor Chongzhen quickly reached an agreement.

They urged the emperor to tell the world the crime of killing the Jin merchants in Hukou, and severely punished the Jiubian Shanxi Chamber of Commerce headed by the Fan family for the crime of collaborating with the enemy and setting up private merchants and soldiers to rebel.

At the same time, these ministers also urged Emperor Chongzhen to seriously investigate the crime of dereliction of duty and dereliction of duty in the private use of public weapons by Jinyi Wei Datong Thousand Households.

Seeing that these profiteers who had defected to the enemy and even betrayed their own nation had finally fallen to the point where everyone shouted and beaten, Emperor Chongzhen's heart breathed a sigh of relief.

If you just simply catch a few merchants, casually put on a captive hat and kill them quietly, this Emperor Chongzhen can do it.

However, in doing so, it is difficult to achieve the goal of educating and alerting the majority of people.

At that time, the traditional Chinese generally had the concept of one family under heaven, and few had the concept of the nation-state.

If you don't establish the concept of this nation-state, you will kill a group of profiteers who have captured the enemy, and more profiteers will emerge to fill their place.

After all, business capital is always looking for profit.

At present, how could these businessmen in the late Ming Dynasty, who had never had the concept of a nation-state, consciously stand on the side of the Ming court, and how could they consciously safeguard the interests of the country or the nation?

In the evening of the same day, when Emperor Chongzhen was urging the emperor to severely deal with the merchants of Shanxi Province with thunderous means, Emperor Chongzhen said to Wang Guoxing and Fang Zhenghua:

"Wait for Jinyiwei and Dongchang, we must quickly dispatch sufficient manpower to make a detour to Xuanfu, Taiyuan and other places, and take down the personnel and goods of the eight major families of the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce in Zhangjiakou, as well as all the businessmen who hold the shares of the eight major families of the Xuanda Shanxi Chamber of Commerce such as Jiexiu Fanjia.

"Including the Shanshan Hall and the Jin Chamber of Commerce that are bounded by the South Zhili, the North Zhili and the Jingshi Territory, they must also send people to investigate, but anyone who kills the shares of the Jin Merchants must be taken.

"Whether it is an incumbent official in the family, even if it is a cabinet elder of the previous dynasty, you don't have any scruples, you will seize the family property first! Especially the men in the family of the eight families of the Xuanda Shanxi Chamber of Commerce, don't let anyone get away!

"As for these crimes of treason against the enemy of the Jin merchants, it is good to let more people know about them, especially in Shanxi, so that everyone knows the depth of their crimes!

"In addition, in Taiyuan and Datong, in the future, we will also set up several stone tablets in Zhangjiakou, Kill Hukou and other places along the border passes, and engrave the names, crimes and fate of these traitors, so that those who come after them will be warned!

"I want to let these traitor businessmen who are willing to be the eagle dogs of the enemy country from now on become the street rats that everyone shouts and beats, and they will never turn over!"

When the ministers of civil and military affairs kneeling below heard this, everyone was shocked, the emperor in front of him seemed to be harmless to people and animals on weekdays, but if he was really ruthless, he was absolutely ruthless to the extreme.

Not only to kill his people and confiscate his family wealth, but also to destroy his name and make him suffer eternal revival.

However, at this moment, no one dares to stand up to question or oppose it.

Of course, there are a lot of performance elements in Emperor Chongzhen's anger before, and the reason why he did this is to reduce resistance to his next arrangement.

Now it seems that this effect is still good.

On November 14 of the second year of Chongzhen, Jiang Pai, who was nearly 30 years old, bid farewell to his career in the Datong border army, and was directly transferred by Emperor Chongzhen to the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town, becoming a subordinate of Wang Guoxing, the envoy of Beizhen, and arranged a position of deputy thousand households for him.

At the same time, Emperor Chongzhen also asked him to follow Wang Guoxing and others to Shanxi to Jiexiu, Puzhou, Zezhou, Yangcheng and other places to raid the hometowns of those Shanxi traitor merchants.

And Fang Zhenghua took his Dongchang people and hurried to Zhangjiakou to arrest and raid the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce in Zhangjiakou.
