Chapter 039: Knocking Li Jinzhong

One by one, the boxes were carried into the Heart Cultivation Palace, and Zhu Youxiao was still very interested in copying the house, especially this was the house of the anti-bone boy Wang An.

"How much are these things worth?" Zhu Youxiao looked at the dazzling array of things in front of him and asked Li Jinzhong. Li Jinzhong shook his head and said: "The slaves and maids still have to be counted, but the cash, cash, and silver tickets in Wang An's house are added together, and there are a total of 80,000 taels." ”

"So much money?" Zhu Youxiao was taken aback, Wang An, the anti-bone boy, has actually not been in power for a long time, that is, more than half a year.

"Many of them should have been embezzled from the palace treasury, and Wang An also collected a lot of silver from the imperial store and the imperial village. There are some other means of scraping outside the palace, and it is normal for Wang An to have this money. Li Jinzhong explained on the side.

"Let's take the count!" Zhu Youxiao nodded.

Zhu Youxiao was still very satisfied with the results of this raid, and found 80,000 taels of silver in cash, and Wang An also had a lot of antique calligraphy and paintings, pearls and jade, and other things, as well as a lot of land deeds.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the slaves and maids will hurry up and count." Li Jinzhong hurriedly asked people to carry the box down.

"It seems that raiding homes is a very lucrative activity!" Zhu Youxiao has already tasted the sweetness of raiding, this thing comes too fast, and he doesn't need to think about it.

There are too many objects that can be confiscated, such as the Zhangjiakou Jin merchants who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country. These old rich men in Shanxi lived a relatively simple life, and when they made money, they kept hiding in cellars and other places, and they must have a lot of silver confiscated from them.

There are also Yangzhou salt merchants, there are many who are worth millions of taels of silver, and hundreds of thousands of taels are everywhere.

Then there is the maritime merchants, whose wealth is truly amazing, and the silver mined by the Spaniards in South America flows into China to cause inflation, and it is these maritime merchants who are the first to handle it.

However, as an emperor, if he went crazy and raided them all, there must be mutinies everywhere. Therefore, the meal should still be eaten one bite at a time, and you can't rush it.

In addition to the East Factory can do this work, Jinyiwei can also be engaged. Therefore, Luo Sigong will inevitably be taken by the commander of Jinyiwei, so that Zhu Youxiao can control Jinyiwei and rectify Jinyiwei.

It didn't take long for a head of the East Factory, under the leadership of Yang Guang, to come to Zhu Youxiao to tell the whistle.

"Emperor Qiqi, when he was raiding his house, the minister saw that the factory had hidden some silver tickets privately, and it was estimated that there were more than 1,000 taels of silver." The head of the East Factory exposed Li Jinzhong's behavior to Zhu Youxiao.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao promoted the reporting system in the palace, and the whistleblowers were all rewarded, and the punishment was relatively large, forming a perfect supervision system, and improving the welfare of the palace personnel, there was very little corruption in the palace, although the personnel of the East Factory were not eunuchs, but they were also within this system.

"What's your name?" Zhu You asked the head of the East Factory.

"Back to the emperor, minister Xu Wensheng, the head of the noon department of the East Factory." Xu Wensheng replied that the East Factory was divided into 12 parts, including Zichou Yinmao, and was divided according to the 12 local branches. Under each department, there are twelve commanders (squad leaders) and officers (officers), and the structure is more compact than that of Jinyiwei.

Except for the admiral who was a eunuch in the East Factory, the rest were all transferred by Jinyiwei. Therefore, Jinyiwei and Dongchang are from the same source and have some competition. One is commanded by the Jinyi Guard, and the other is led by the eunuchs in the palace.

"Very well, I will reward you with a thousand taels." Zhu Youxiao agreed with Xu Wensheng's revelations, and he was not stingy with his shots, and directly rewarded 1,000 taels.

"Thank you for the emperor's reward." Xu Wensheng was overjoyed, he just came to expose Li Jinzhong, mainly because the emperor has always been generous in the face of such exposure.

"Alright, you go back! Don't make a statement. Zhu Youxiao said to him.

"Obey." Xu Wensheng withdrew.

Li Jinzhong began to be greedy for money, but his courage was not very big, and he was only greedy for more than a thousand taels of silver. But Zhu Youxiao still decided to beat him.

Soon Li Jinzhong counted the confiscated assets, and disposed of those antique calligraphy and paintings, which were worth about 50,000 taels. So Zhu Youxiao called all the personnel from the East Factory who participated in the raid.

More than 50 people participated in the operation.

Zhu Youxiao immediately asked people to move a box of silver out.

"This time to check the criminal minister Wang An, you all have clean hands, I am very pleased. Therefore, I decided that in the future, whenever I raided the house, I would give out one-tenth of the cash to reward those who participated in the raid. But if I find out who dares to intercept it privately when raiding the house, I will be beheaded all over the house. If you find someone secretly withholding it, you can go to the palace and expose it, and I will give you an additional reward. Zhu Youxiao directly set the rules and took out one-tenth to reward the copyists, although the handwriting is a bit big, but it is still worth it, it is better than the following when the house is raided privately.

A group of Dongchang 'fans' were suddenly overjoyed and shouted to the emperor. Then Zhu Youxiao distributed the silver, and everyone got two hundred taels of silver, regardless of the level of their position, it was completely evenly distributed.

Such a reward method can improve the supervision enthusiasm of the low-level personnel of the East Factory. Once the confiscated assets are misappropriated by the superiors, their interests will be harmed.

The most important thing is to look at the system and the implementation of the two links, the system has been perfected, and anyone in the system can be corrupted to 'listen to the heavens', directly report to the emperor, and then the emperor will order the implementation.

The Dongchang staff who got the silver all knelt on the ground and shouted: "The ministers swear to die for the emperor." ”

Everyone got the money, but Li Jinzhong didn't. After the people from Dongchang left, Zhu Youxiao called Li Jinzhong to him and asked him, "Do you know why I didn't send you money?" ”

"Slave, slave, slave ......" Li Jinzhong's forehead began to sweat, obviously not stupid. Looking at the emperor's expression, looking like he was waiting for him to confess, Li Jinzhong regretted it in his heart. When he raided his house, he couldn't stop his greed for a while, and took a thousand taels of silver tickets with his hand, but he didn't expect to be known by the emperor so soon.

Zhu Youxiao still didn't speak, Li Jinzhong couldn't hold it anymore, and knelt in front of Zhu Youxiao with a puff.

"The slave is guilty, the slave is guilty, please punish the emperor." Li Jinzhong kept kowtowing, Zhu Youxiao was quite satisfied, this guy obviously still has a sense of awe for the imperial power.

"What a crime?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"When the slave and maid raided the house, they took a thousand taels of silver." Li Jinzhong confessed, and hurriedly took out the silver ticket. Zhu Youxiao took the silver ticket and said, "Get up and talk!" ”

"Your Majesty." Li Jinzhong breathed a sigh of relief and stood up cautiously. Zhu Youxiao handed back the silver ticket and said, "Just one thousand taels of silver tickets, you can take it!" It's a reward for you this time. ”

"Slaves don't dare." Li Jinzhong hurriedly lowered his head.

"If you want to take it, you will take it, during this time you are tired from running around, and I will also see it." Zhu Youxiao really couldn't be serious with Li Jinzhong for a thousand taels of silver, but he still wanted to beat him.

"Your Majesty." Li Jinzhong hurriedly took the silver ticket.

"Do you know what Wang An's greedy people look like in my eyes?" Zhu Youxiao asked Li Jinzhong, and Li Jinzhong bowed and said, "The slave doesn't know." ”

"In my eyes, they are like pigs, and the pigs have not been slaughtered yet, because they are not fat enough, do you want to be such pigs?" Zhu You asked Li Jinzhong.

"Slave, slave doesn't want to." Li Jinzhong was in a cold sweat, and secretly said that he was lucky, but fortunately he didn't really fall into it.

"I don't want to, that's why I'll mention you this time." Zhu Youxiao said to Li Jinzhong seriously: "Now I am worried about internal and external troubles, and one carelessness will overthrow the country." You must know that it is easy to put the icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow. If you can assist me wholeheartedly, and the monarchs and ministers will revitalize the Ming Dynasty, when the Ming Dynasty is revitalized, I will not only allow you to sit on a huge wealth above board, but also make you glorious, and even leave a name in history, and be remembered by the trillions of people of the Ming Dynasty. Do you remember? ”

"Slaves and maids remember His Majesty's teachings." Li Jinzhong knelt on the ground with great devotion at this moment and bowed to Zhu Youxiao. PS: The second update arrives, begging for a little recommendation vote, which is very important to the author. The book review area is still relatively lively, and the brothers have also given a lot of advice, thank you very much! In addition, there are some strange and provocative ones.,The author wanted to explain patiently.,But the account speech is restricted.,And I really feel that it's more time-consuming to explain.,So I deleted it.,Forgive me.。 There is another one, many people have written about this subject, it belongs to the one that has been written badly, the author dares to write this subject, and he is also confident that he can write new ideas, unlike other books of the same kind that write about the Emperor of the Apocalypse, which invariably quote the distorted historical materials revised by the Donglin Party in Baidu. However, the author is not a historian, and there will still be some flaws in the details, but on the whole it can still be guaranteed to be more realistic and close to historical facts. But also because of this, some readers who are used to seeing that the Emperor of the Apocalypse is a faint monarch and the Donglin Party are all loyal ministers may not be able to agree, so they find fault in the book review area or something, and the author really doesn't have the energy to argue with them about anything, so when they see similar posts, they basically delete them.
