Chapter 291 Salt Introduction

Although the recruits are brave, the victory often belongs to the experienced veterans, and bravery does not make up for the gap in skill, especially for those who are on the battlefield for the first time. The result of Lan Phoenix's hard work was that in the early morning of the next day, she was weak, and Zheng Guobao had to wait for her to get dressed and help her go out to meet people. The blue phoenix first accepted the grace, and the whole person was immersed in happiness, Ren Yingying saw her appearance, and her teeth were a little pantothenic. "You two are fine, we have been tired of being together since we met yesterday, but we have fought hard for a day and a night, and finally took all these salt merchants."

The other three Western merchants were far less guarded than Wang Cang, and they were just looking for connections everywhere and asking for intercession. When the soldiers came to the door, these Western businessmen did not have the courage to resist, so they had to surrender. When the mansions of the three Western merchants were broken, Ren Yingying's face sank, and with an order, she took all the courtyards of the Hui merchants who came to act as cannon fodder. Then take advantage of this momentum to return to the division and kill back, in addition to the Xu family, the other three Hui merchants were also the same as the Western merchants, all of them were taken.

Sun Xiu didn't understand what it was for until the army broke in. is still ordering someone to find his son Sun Fu, "Find Fu'er, let Fu'er make it clear to them, we are Qin's people." This is a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding. ”

Ren Yingying sneered: "Sun Yuanwai, your son, I have already taken you out." What else are you looking for him? Now he has long taken the silver and gone to live happily. As soon as she thought that after she was busy with the troops, Zheng Guobao worked the blue phoenix, and her heart was full of hatred, and she was extremely ruthless. Several salt merchants were ruthless and didn't dare to make trouble anymore.

"These people have been put in prison, and when they will be arraigned, it depends on your will, husband." Ren Yingying glanced at the blue phoenix, "I accepted a newcomer yesterday, if the husband is afraid of bad luck, it will not be too late to try again in a few days." ”

"Phoenix is a runner, but he doesn't have so many scruples. Husband doesn't have to worry about me. Let's do big things with peace of mind. "When the blue phoenix saw Ren Yingying's appearance, she didn't dare to tie Zheng Guobao to her side anymore." The sister of the Qin family has a great grace to me, and along the way, the two of us worshiped the sisters, and I happened to talk to the sister Qin. But this favor, my husband must help me pay it back. ”

Zheng Guobao people are full of spirit when they are happy. Judging people is also full of energy. Wang Cang was locked up for a day, Shui Mi didn't hit his teeth, he was already hungry and had no strength, and when he looked at those torture instruments, his legs were a little unable to move. "Chincha. Uncle Guo, spare your life. The old man has a reputation for lifting people, you can't punish me. ”

"Can't? Outside the king, are you confused? We are Jinyi Guard, not a local yamen, why can't we? Don't you know that in prison? Which one doesn't have a meritorious name on his head, let alone lift people, are we killing fewer Jinshi? You're just a businessman, why can't we do it? ”

The Wang family is also a member of the officialdom, and Wang Cang also knows the various methods of Jinyiwei. hurriedly said: "Wait, you and I have two places, there are some festivals, but there is no grudge." I have sinned against you. It's because you dug a pit in Shaanxi and pit my clan. One of my nieces from my own family seems to have fallen into your hands, and she is a descendant. The old man took action against you, just to stand up for the family. Now that I'm losing, I have nothing to say, how much money do you need to settle this matter. As long as I come up with a number, I'll definitely hand it in. If there is a mortal enemy, there will be sixty or seventy eunuchs in my royal family. If you kill them all, my royal family will not be killed. ”

"Wang Cang, if it's just a private festival between the two of us, even if you pick someone to block my door, I can't spare you. The official accepted Jiao Niang yesterday, and he was in a good mood, this kind of trivial matter, the penalty will pass. But you colluded with the Banzhou Yang family with the intention of rebellion, this kind of big crime, I can't let you go! ”

The Yang family in Banzhou gave edicts to several major salt merchants, but only Wang Cang's edict had a word on the canonization of the king. One of Wang Cang's own daughters also made a side room for Yang Yinglong, although it was only a concubine, but a little toast, can she marry a girl from such a prestigious family as a side room?

Ling Yun Zhina's account book, combined with the account book of the Wang family, can be seen by comparing the two. The Wang family accounts for the largest proportion of salt sold to Banshu every year. In terms of price, it is the cheapest one, and if something goes wrong, it is a demon, Zheng Guobao synthesized several clues, and it is not difficult to come to this conclusion.

Wang Cang naturally couldn't admit this kind of charge of killing his head and stealing his family, so he gritted his teeth and said, "You don't have any evidence in your hands." Don't want to talk about it and slander the old man. My Wang family is a famous family, and there are dozens of eunuchs in the family, you dare to plant this kind of crime on my family, believe it or not, the people of my Wang family clan will break your body into thousands of pieces! ”

"Wang Weng, you're thinking too much. Your Wang family has a big business, I admit this. But if you want to say that they are right with the court, they are not worthy. Although you didn't join forces with the Yang family to raise troops, but in the two times, I'm afraid there was already collusion. The Wang family is rich, the Yang family has soldiers, you can indeed do a great job together. As for the evidence, I really don't have it in my hands, but it's not a problem, we do an errand in brocade, and the evidence is never a problem. Outside of you, you have seen strong winds and waves, and you may be able to carry these torture instruments of mine. But what about your children? Will thy sons, and thy nephews, and thy sons-in-law be able to bear these punishments? ”

Wang Cang also knew that his sons and nephews were all delicate and expensive, and they couldn't stand the punishment. If these torture instruments were really used, maybe someone would really confess. Zheng Guobao said again: "Some time ago, I took a concubine in Hangzhou, surnamed Ren. Her father called me to do it, and she is also a little famous in the rivers and lakes. There are many nurses in your royal family, and there are many people in the rivers and lakes, and when it comes to the name of any of them, they also know it. If he is old-handed, there are few people in your merchant family who can carry it. ”

Wang Cang's eyes are dark, is this Wang family's family business so defeated? He was silent for a long time and said, "Uncle Guo, the old man has planted it." I only want to ask you, who is going to deal with my Wang family? ”

"Do you need to ask? What is the situation in Yangzhou now, you don't know. Can Hui merchants watch Western merchants sit on half of the country? Xu Sanfu is a good friend of my father-in-law, you say, can I not help my father-in-law with this little favor? To tell you the truth, the messenger of the salt rectification method this time was also asked by Xu Sanfu for me. I'm also repaying the favor, except for the king, I'm really sorry. ”

Wang Cang said angrily: "I see! Sun Laogou actually dared to use tricks to harm me! This time, the old man planted it, and he didn't think about it. Qin Cha, the Sun family has done a lot of evil things, and the old man is willing to come out, and he has recruited all the evil things that the Sun family has done. You disposed of the old man, and then you disposed of the Sun family, and from then on, the two Huai Salt Roads, your family monopolized. Even your old father-in-law will not say that you are not. ”

"Oh? The Sun family has also done evil? I don't know. I only know that your royal staff goes to Banzhou every year to sell salt, and also advances two Huai salt introductions, evading the cost of salt introduction and taxes, and the money owed to the imperial court alone is millions of taels. After cracking such a big case, I, as an official, can be added to the first grade, and if I get it done, it is possible for a first-grade official. As for Sun Yuanwai, his family's case is as big as yours? If it is a simple matter of taking people's land and property and forcing people to die, then there is no need to mention it, it is too embarrassing and boring. ”

Wang Cang is like a gambler who has lost all his capital, he only thinks about pulling the people who hurt him into the water and ending up together, and he doesn't care about anything else. "Taxes owed? Sun Xiu owes a lot more taxes than me. He has more money in the court than he has belongings. Don't try to hide these things from our peers. Uncle Guo, you give me paper, give me a pen, and I will write everything I know. ”

The same situation was also born in the other three Western merchants. The case of the three Western merchants was slightly smaller than Wang Cang, but they couldn't get out of it all by the company. In order to keep the family and drag down the Hui merchants, they also know everything and say everything. also recruited his backers in the court, and those bigwigs took money from salt merchants, which was the umbrella of salt merchants. If Zheng Guobao wants to investigate to the end, then these big people may have to take action, and it is not necessary to protect them.

If the case can't be suppressed, make it bigger. This is also the conclusion that the salt merchants have come to after years of observation of the dynasty, as long as the case is greater than the authority of the principal, it will not be settled. Therefore, these people have no pressure to recruit senior officials, and they have worked hard to write, and the big case of two Huai salt citations and tens of millions of tax arrears has gradually become clear.

With the confessions of these people, Zheng Guobao was satisfied, and said with a smile: "This time, Lianghuai Salt Road, the richest place in the dynasty, finally fell into my hands. ”

When he got out of the torture room, he wanted to meet Lan Phoenix, but a woman stepped forward to block the way, "Uncle Guo, I heard Sister Lan say that you are the most affectionate." I've helped you so much this time, how can you repay me? ”
