Chapter 194: The Down-and-Out Tang Bohu (I)

After a long period of peace, the people do not know the soldiers. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info this is the current situation of the waterproof village officials in Zhejiang. When the officers and soldiers of the guards returned to the city, there were many people who loved the ship and abandoned their homes, and the ships were not repaired and the equipment was not in order.

These are all the things that Wei Wenli played to Chen Yu about the coastal situation in Zhejiang, and even more comical things, because of the large cost of repairing and maintaining the coastal defense military ships, many guards actually sold these ships and turned them into horse patrols, and the sea no longer routinely patrols.

Some guards have been patrolling the sea as their top priority, but they have secretly engaged in business, shipping, fishing, and so on. The polders of thousands of households in Wenzhou Shayuan were washed away by the sea, and the local capital not only did not repair them, but the people solved them by themselves, but they went to the sea to fish, thinking that they were profitable.

In addition, there are many officials who are prepared for the Japanese to accept bribes from large households in the southeast privately, indulge their subordinates to go to the sea to fish, and even more prosperous, sell illicit salt.

For these shortcomings played by Wei Wenli, Chen Yu's face turned pale after seeing it, it is okay that there is no war now, but after a while, the Japanese learned that the military affairs along the coast of the Ming Dynasty were so lax, if they took the initiative to attack the coast, how many families would suffer.

Qi Jingtong and a few other thousands of households didn't know what Chen Yu called him to do, but seeing that Chen Yu's face was not good, he knew that it was not a good thing, so he asked cautiously: "My lord, what's wrong?" ”

"See for yourself!" Chen Yu handed Wei Wenli's document to Qi Jingtong, and after a long time, Qi Jingtong and a few people read it, and then he said: "This is the Ming Dynasty, which shows that the prosperity is abnormal, but the hidden dangers inside are like termites, and you only know about Shaanxi and other places, in fact, the official there is not worried, but here, if there is a Japanese Kou who discovers the coastal defense in the southeast, what do you say?" ”

"Massacre, robbery!" Qi Jing informed that the mentality of these outsiders is the most suitable for explaining to them without work.

"But the southeast is already like this, how should the adults open the sea ban?" Qi Jingtong asked puzzledly, indeed, these two points seem so contradictory on the surface.

"If the bird is poor, it will grab, and if the rabbit is frightened, it will run." Chen Yu's eyes were full of worry, "The soldiers and civilians along the coast have no cultivation and no livelihood, and if the sea ban continues for a long time, it will undoubtedly cause them to take risks. ”

Chen Yu saw the problem very accurately, everything he said was reasonable, and it also reflected his accurate grasp of people's hearts, Qi Jingtong secretly admired it and asked, "What should I do?" ”

"If you want to open the sea ban, you need to first carry out a rectification of coastal military affairs and other matters, now that Liu Jin is in power in the court, Li Dongyang is surging underneath, and now the official happens to have nothing to do in Beijing, it is better to go to the southeast." Chen Yu handed Shen Fei the document that had already been written on the case, and said to him, "Go and give it to Liu Jin." ”

On the second day, the appointment of the cabinet came down, "ordering Chen Yu to be the right hand of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Palace, to inspect Zhejiang, and give Chen Yu the right to act cheaply." ”

Liu Jin is anxious for Chen Yu's departure, so his efficiency is so fast, because as long as Chen Yu is in Beijing for a day, he Liu Jin doesn't dare to do many things.

Since this appointment, the officials of the southeast coast immediately became nervous, except for the people of the Fujian merchant group, of course.

Chen Yu is a resolute person, he did not delay in Beijing, and immediately set off for Zhejiang, but he took Fang Xiaomei with him on the side. It's really not Chen Yu's heart, mainly with this girl by her side, many things can be discussed.

Those officials who were originally Zhejiang have naturally heard of Chen Yu, this kid killed Mai Xiu when he didn't have so much power, and now he is patrolling Zhejiang as the capital imperial history, there is absolutely nothing good, I am afraid that I will stir up trouble in Zhejiang again.

Chen Yu didn't do an official ship, he wanted to see if the thousands of households along the coast of Zhejiang were really as Wei Wenli said.

He took Qi Jingtong, Shen Fei, Liu Yu, Fang Xiaomei, and a few captains of the inner factory mixed in the merchant ship, starting from Beijing, the road was peaceful, and when they arrived in Nanzhili, Chen Yu and others got off the ship.

I haven't seen my mentor Tang Bohu for a long time, Chen Yu plans to go to Wuzhong this time to have a look, Suzhou is the same as the last time I came, it is still bustling and abnormal, walking on the noisy street, Chen Yu can't help but feel a little emotional.

"I'm so hungry, when are we going to eat?" Qi Jingtong rubbed his shriveled stomach and said with a bitter face.

"I really don't know what you do except eat, I don't know what the adults are doing with you!" Shen Fei said sarcastically on the side.

"You know a fart, how can you fight if you don't eat enough?" Qi Jingtong obviously disagreed with Shen Fei's words, and the two fought before they could say a word, and they almost rolled up their sleeves on the street.

Thanks to Chen Yu's ability to control these two people, he said: "You two don't have to copy it, let's go to the teacher's house to eat soup dumplings today." Thinking of the soup dumplings, Chen Yu couldn't help but say: "White dough, light noodle soup, strong and fragrant juice in the mouth, more than three days around." ”

"Oh, don't talk about it, my saliva is going to flow." Qi Jingtong said with a big grin.

Fang Xiaomei's throat also smacked, obviously hungry, Chen Yu couldn't help but smile and speed up.

But when they arrived in the city, the Shen family's soup dumpling shop was gone, replaced by a steamed bun shop surnamed Peng.

"So? Why don't you go in and eat? Qi Jingtong saw Chen Yu looking at this Pengjia steamed bun shop in a daze, thinking that Chen Yu was feeling it again.

"You go first, I have something to do." Chen Yu said, "Remember to bring me a few after eating." ”

"Oh, it's hard to be an adult who has a good relationship in Suzhou and wants to meet him." Qi Jingtong muttered: "I'll just say, for the sake of a master, as for such a big move, I deliberately got off the boat from Nanzhili." ”

"You know a fart, for Lord Chen, nothing is more important than the teacher-student relationship, if you chew the root of your tongue again, you won't cut your tongue!" Shen Fei glared at Qi Jingtong fiercely.

Fang Xiaomei didn't eat either, she came to Chen Yu's side and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

"This was originally my master's and master's shop, but at the moment, I don't know why it was changed by this Peng family, I asked about the situation." Chen Yu said.

Fang Xiaomei nodded, she knew Chen Yu's intentions, so she found the owner of a shop next to her, and looked at it without moving: "Shopkeeper, this next door used to be made by the Shen family's lady, why did it change at this moment, my husband and wife came to Suzhou at this moment, but they came specifically for the Shen family." ”

The man looked at Chen Yu and Fang Xiaomei, and couldn't help but be envious, this pair of beautiful people is really talented and beautiful, he said: "This little lady and little brother don't know anything, but the bun shop of Jiuniang next door is very big in Suzhou." ”

"Especially after that Jiuniang married Tang Jieyuan, when she went to eat steamed buns, Tang Jieyuan would add a small painting to her hand, but it attracted many people."

That is, not long ago, Suzhou Mansion took office as the new prefect, the prefect's surname was Peng, and a distant brother-in-law came to Suzhou to open a shop, and fell in love with Tang Jieyuan's steamed bun shop, so he took it away from Hao.

"Huh? And such things? Does Governor Peng know? Chen Yu asked.

"Why don't you know, but the prefect of Peng's mansion is said to be very big, so Tang Jieyuan can only swallow his anger." The guy sighed, "Since ancient times, the people didn't fight with officials, if he was still Xie Yuan, maybe this wouldn't have happened, and he could only be blamed for his bad luck!" ”

Chen Yu left quietly, unable to see what his attitude was at the moment, Fang Xiaomei asked: "I'm afraid that your master has the same temperament as yours, and he is not far from confiding in others if he suffers a loss, if he is your Chen Tingyu's master, then how can Governor Peng give three points of face, right?" ”

"Well, if you do that, he won't be Tang Jieyuan, let's go, let's try the buns!" Chen Yu took Fang Xiaomei into the Peng family's steamed bun shop.

The two of them found Shen Fei and sat down at a table of eight immortals, and Chen Yu asked with a smile, "How is it, is it delicious?" ”

"I don't feel anything, it's similar to what I do in the market." Qijing Passage.

"There is a problem with the meat filling of the bun, it is not fresh." Shen Fei frowned, Chen Yu looked at the drawer of buns in front of him and didn't eat a few, so he tasted it, and then spit it out again, "I'm afraid no one will eat it!" ”

Chen Yu's words were very big, and Qi Jingtong on the side couldn't eat the buns in his mouth, nor did he vomit.

"Guys, are you looking for fault?" The shopkeeper appeared in front of Chen Yu and the others viciously, and there were a few small servants beside him, who seemed to be some scoundrels in the market.

"What's the matter, don't you let people say it's not delicious?" Qi Jingtong stood up and said very domineeringly.

"A total of ten taels of silver, just get out if you give it!" The shopkeeper is not afraid of Qi Jingtong, after all, there are more than a dozen horses beside him, there is no need to be afraid of him, no, they are all starting to ask for prices.

Chen Yu stopped Qi Jingtong and just smiled, "I'm afraid we won't have as much as ten taels if we eat so much, boss, it's not right for me to wait, how much money do you see, I'll give it to you." ”

"Ten taels." The boss crossed his hands and said very arrogantly.

"Compared with the price of buns from other homes, you are so afraid that it is a matter of dozens of yuan, don't you say? If you're such a deceitful, I'll have to report it to the authorities. Chen Yu said with a smile.

Hearing that Chen Yu was going to report to the official, the boss said with a smile: "What do you look at the surname of this store?" Report to the officer? Hehe! ”

"I know each other, I gave ten taels of silver, I don't care about it, but if you really report to the official, you will bear the consequences!" The boss threatened.

"Oh, I don't believe in this evil." Chen Yu said with a smile, "If you dare to blackmail me and others, I will really report this official!" ”

At this time, many people have gathered at the door of the steamed bun shop, and Suzhou people love to be lively, so whenever something happens, there will be hot people watching.

"Hehe, I don't need you." The boss said to the little guy on the side, "Go and find Zhang Dianshi, just say that someone is making trouble in my shop!" ”

After he said that, he pointed at Chen Yu and threatened fiercely: "You kid doesn't know what to do, right?" I'm afraid I won't be able to solve it today. ”

After speaking, he shouted in a low voice: "I'll get your mother, if there weren't many people today, Lao Tzu would have chopped you, believe it or not?!" (To be continued.) )
