Chapter 331: Huainan Journey (12)

"I heard that two of my subordinates are bold and dare to go to the National Chamber of Commerce to make trouble, I wonder what happened to them now?"

At the beginning of the banquet, Wu Zhengwen said. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

This statement clearly shows that he doesn't know anything about Sima Yong and Niu Yanjin, and it's all the nonsense of his subordinates, and now he is here to tea.

Luo Yi sneered secretly, but the shirk was clean, but it was a pity that the State Chamber of Commerce had conclusive evidence, even if it denied it, there was no way; But before that, Luo Yi still has to deal with the salt merchant.

Since Wu Zhengwen has been solved, it must be solved thoroughly, and the Huainan salt merchants will be served in one pot.

Luo Yi looked at Wu Zhengwen and chuckled: "Lord Jiedu, what you said is too light, they are not simply making trouble, besides, I don't believe that you don't know at all." ā€

"I really don't know. I only found out a few days ago that the two of them had arrived in Yangzhou, so I came. ā€

Luo Yi didn't reply, smiling and drinking his own wine.

Wu Chong snorted: "Lord Jiedu, let's have a banquet." ā€

"Open the table, open the table..."

........

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

Luo Yi repelled many inconsequential people in the room, leaving only Luo Yi himself, Zhao Wenxian, Wu Zhengwen, and Wu Chong, a total of four; As for the other officials in Yangzhou, they were invited away by Luo Yi. Luo Yi sighed: "Alas... This time I came to Yangzhou, I wanted to make a good profit, but I didn't expect... Alas, I don't do what I want. Lord Wu, I heard that your officials in Huainan are all rich and flowing, is it true? ā€

Luo Yi's words were obviously asking for bribes from local officials, but they were too obvious and made people very uncomfortable.

Wu Zhengwen used to pay tribute to him by others, but he had never paid tribute to others, and for a while, he didn't react.

Wu Zhengwen said: "What do you mean by this, the officials in Huainan are honest and honest, how can they be rich." ā€

"I think Master Wu, you misunderstood, I didn't mean anything else, I just said it casually."

Luo Yi said: "Yangzhou officials, I believe in myself, even if there is anything, I don't mind, I will... Turn a blind eye.... ā€

Wu Zhengwen: ".... ā€

Wu Chong was anxious to watch from the sidelines, Luo Yi's words had already been said very clearly, and it was obvious that Luo Yi wanted to be in the same stream with Huainan officials, but Wu Zhengwen didn't hear it.

Wu Chong sighed, how did such an IQ achieve moderation.

Wu Chong asked himself, if Qin Cha said this to him, he would definitely be able to react.

"Lord Wu, I'll tell you clearly, I already know all about your salt tax, the last time I came to Yangzhou, Wu Shengqing had already told you, but I didn't go to the Jiedu envoy camp to find you, do you know why?"

Wu Zhengwen was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Lord Qincha, salt tax... What's the matter with the salt tax, you have thought too much, you must have thought too much, it is Wu Shengqing talking nonsense, Lord Qincha should not be gullible. ā€

Luo Yi said: "Lord Wu don't have to be nervous, I haven't finished talking yet, even if you evade taxes, what's the matter, people die for money, birds die for food, this is a matter of course, besides, I also want a piece of the pie.... Lord Wu, I don't know if you're willing... Don't worry, my heart is not black, you want ninety, I only need one or two of them, and I can still maneuver around Kyoto, so that the emperor will never know about it, we can always eat Yangzhou's salt tax, and I can't spend it in a few lifetimes, I have been thinking about this matter for a long time, and this time I invited Lord Wu to the National Chamber of Commerce, also for this matter. ā€

"Is this true?"

"Do you think I'm telling a lie?"

Luo Yi waved his hand and pointed to the few people present: "Everyone here is my own people, this is Zhao Wenxian, who is my general, it is trustworthy, this is the history of the governor of Yangzhou, presumably you have already set up the line..." ā€

Wu Chong hurriedly said: "Master Hou, I didn't..." ā€

Luo Yi said: "Lord Changshi, whether you have any contacts or not, we will no longer care, whether there is or not, if not, we will be together from now on, and take this opportunity to form a rope, isn't it better?" ā€

"Huainan is a piece of fat, especially the salt tax, which makes everyone's eyes red..."

Luo Yi said a lot of words, in short, he wanted to join the circle of Wu Zhengwen and other Huainan officials, to be everyone's umbrella, and the remuneration was not much, just two percent.

Just two percent can get the support of a celebrity in front of the emperor, as long as you are not a fool, you will definitely agree.

Wu Zhengwen thought about it carefully and felt that Luo Yi didn't look like a fraud; The last time Luo Yi came to Yangzhou, he did punish the salt merchants in Yangzhou severely, and took away hundreds of thousands of stolen money, and also convicted Wu Shengqing.

Just imagine, Wu Shengqing has fallen, how can he not confess that he took bribes, but Luo Yi did not come to him to settle accounts, but pressed down, which is very doubtful, Xu Luoyi really wants to do it with him.

And this time, Niu Yanjin and Sima Yong all fell into the hands of Luo Yi, but Luo Yi still didn't say anything, but invited him to treat him politely, which shows that Luo Yi wants to make friends and has no malice.

After thinking about it, Wu Zhengwen laughed and said: "Okay, since Lord Qincha has this intention, how dare you rebel in the future, but two percent is too little, I am willing to give three percent to Lord Qincha!" ā€

"Really?"

"Seriously."

Luo Yi said with a smile: "The festival makes the adults really happy, come, let's drink, drink and talk." ā€

Immediately afterwards, Luo Yi asked a lot about Wu Zhengwen's salt merchants, set out the operation trajectory behind the Huainan salt merchants, and how everyone distributed the money, and how to distribute the money after the silver was in hand.

and so on, Luo Yi knows everything well.

"I really didn't expect you to be so bold in Huainan..."

Luo Yi's face suddenly fell, like a piece of cold ice, staring at Wu Zhengwen.

Wu Zhengwen was talking energetically, and when he saw Luo Yi's face change abruptly, he was surprised, and he felt a trace of something bad in his heart: "Qin... Lord-sama, you are saying this... ā€

"I already know everything I need to know, so I don't need to hide it."

Luo Yi stood up and shouted outside the house, "Someone." ā€

Bang, clang...

At this moment, the door was opened, and a dozen soldiers broke in.

Wu Zhengwen's face changed greatly, and he got up and said, "Lord Qincha, what are you doing, you..." ā€

Luo Yi smiled softly, took out a volume of holy decrees from his arms, and unfolded them: "Under the holy decree, Wu Zhengwen, take the decree." ā€

Wu Zhengwen was stunned for a moment, and quickly knelt down: "The minister accepts the order." ā€

Luo Yi read: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, Huainan Jiedu envoy Wu Zhengwen, colluded with salt merchants, tax evasion, unforgivable crimes, Qin sent Luo Yi, escorted Wu Zhengwen into Beijing, interrogated by the Criminal Department, Qin this!" ā€
