Section 253 Hold power

Xing'an laughed heartily, and the white crane said for the first time when he talked about his talent in front of Banzai that his greatest talent was to be able to settle accounts.

At the moment, as Bai Minghe said, you said 1,140,000 taels of silver, how much salt does it represent? Don't all the people of the country eat salt? The answer is no, and that is that someone has evaded the salt tax.

Bai Minghe said again: "There are three coins of silver for one catty of salt on the market, that is, there are at least two coins and five dollars for each catty of salt." It's not a small thing for me to make a profit in sea trade, and I can only earn some silver by relying on a large quantity. According to the calculation of 6 million taels in the Ming Dynasty, the total value of the salt on the market after selling is 180 million taels, the treasury income is more than 1 million taels, and the maximum amount that salt households get is 6 million taels, so there are still 170 million taels there? ”

"White Crane, do you dare to kill?" Xing'an asked with a sneer.

"I don't know if I can dig out 10 million taels of silver from the salt merchant's house to kill a salt merchant?" Bai Minghe asked with a smile.

Xing'an smiled very heartily, but in his heart he thought that Dongchang handed over to Bai Minghe, and there was really nothing wrong with it.

Shirakawaru is definitely a ruthless person when necessary.

Who would have thought, Hu Hu came to a sentence at this time: "By the way, kill a few salt officials, and it is estimated that one family can also copy millions of taels of silver." At least the crime? How do you answer the white name crane! ”

"I just ask, don't the people of Daming eat salt!"

"Rest assured, the salt production of the year that the official told you is well documented, and the official has a lot of evidence in his hands. Don't talk about others, even Gao Gu will fall into the crime of killing his head. Hu Hui's tone was cold.

He's not trying to kill Takaya. It's just a metaphor for the valley.

Gao Gu is a party, and the deepest sticky thing is salt affairs.

Bai Minghe glanced at the representatives of the top ten merchant gangs: "Are you afraid?" Since you are afraid, then the official will show you three paths. Tell me honestly, and spit out what I owe. If you can't spit it out, you will make an IOU. Until the children and grandchildren pay it off, of course, everything is one thing, and you are not the main culprit in the matter of salt, as long as you explain it honestly. The second is that the salt-related business handed over ninety percent of the family property and withdrew from the business gang, and I will no longer pursue it. Three is. I don't die, you die! ”

The last sentence of the white crane is that I will not die, you will die. This sentence alone is enough to impress.

Not to mention these merchants, even Bai Chongxi knelt on the ground in fright, and their Bai family also had salt. But not single-handedly. How much can earn nearly 30,000 taels of silver a year on salt.

Xing'an, Yu Qian, and Hu Hu did not speak. Quietly looking at the white crane.

Even if they understand that the white crane is just a scary word.

Calculated on the basis of one pound of salt, the actual cost plus the transportation cost. A pound of salt costs about 40 yuan. According to the calculation of 40 wen, the largest salt merchant will have about 30 to 50 wen to be handed over to the government, which is considered black gold.

Then, the salt merchant's profit would account for about thirty wen. Then layer by layer, all the way to the store, the price has been increased nearly five or six times, and there is a price of 300 Wen. Every time the price increases, it's not just the businessmen who increase the price. Among them, the salt of Huainan enters the capital, and it must be added once when it enters the capital, because the salt is a monopoly, and there will be a card here, and then it will be taken over by the merchants of the capital.

After the merchants took over, the Jingshili also began to be divided, the inner city and the outer city. If it is distributed to the merchants on the lower floor, there will naturally be officials who will come to add another layer to draw a layer, and then when they go to the store, there will be a street official or a servant, or a brocade guard to mention it again, plus the profit of the store, and the price of 300 wen will come out in this way.

Yu Qian, Hu Hui, and Xing'an all wanted to see how Bai Minghe moved this huge cake, which involved not a few people, but the officialdom of the entire officialdom.

Haven't you thought about it yet?

"And fifty percent, that's five million quintals. Hum! Bai Minghe looked back at Yang Neng: "Yu Gong, borrow the way of your military department, the military franchise." A pound of salt, sixty to one hundred wen. I'll see if anyone wants me to die, if anyone dares to kill me. ”

"Lend you." What kind of character is Yu Qian, a character who has experienced the change of Tumubao, the defense of the capital division, and the people who have fought to the death with Qingliu, Mingliu, and eunuchs, but the shock in Yu Qian's heart when he heard Bai Minghe's words is difficult to describe in words. Shirana Crane is definitely an excellent character, and he hits the vital position with one move.

The raw silk of the white-named crane must be a clear stream in the tube, plus the incorruptible silver. Qingliu will not be greedy, but will do things with all his heart.

If the salt is given to the military, then the military's salt will be guaranteed, and then this will also give the military a profit. What's more, at present, the military of the whole Ming Dynasty does not give the white crane face, and Guangdong has changed from the most ghostly capital to an army that dares to fight with all the capital divisions of the whole Ming Dynasty overnight.

To offend the white crane is to get along with the silver.

In the last article, Bai Minghe's silver ticket was handed over to the management of Dongchang, which was equivalent to mastering the power of the eunuch. If you are a little unconvinced, someone will remove it without using the white crane.

The current group of eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty may not be diligent in government, but they are absolutely loyal to the Ming Emperor.

Next, the white crane will attack the mixed stream, what can they do? As long as the clear stream is not blocked, Bai Minghe dares to transfer troops to raid all the mixed corrupt officials in the Ming Dynasty at one time.

The most important thing is that the price of salt is close to the people, and everyone applauds the people, and the capital crime of the merchant is spared. The mixed current is like an isolated island, and there is not even a helper to call for help around. In addition to pleading guilty from the top book, there is only one way to be raided.

At this time, Xing'an made an even more shocking move.

An iron ring, a copper seal, a short knife, and a small flag were taken out of Xing'an's arms and placed in Bai Minghe's hand. These four things are also the first time Yu Qian and Hu Hu have seen them.

These four things have an unusual meaning.

The iron ring represents the supreme power of the East Factory, the copper seal represents the combat troops of the East Factory, the short knife represents the internal spies of the East Factory, and the small flag represents the external intelligence force of the East Factory.

"Uncle is old, take care of you. Take it, enter the capital and kowtow to Banzai, and let Banzai listen to how you are loyal. ”

Is Hung Yen really old?

No, in fact, Xing'an has more important things to do, because Bai Minghe occupies the territory of Dongchang, and after Xing'an moved, he moved his mind, and the Ming Emperor also wanted to take the opportunity to establish a new secret force. This force is very similar to the Xichang in later generations, and its mission is only one, to monitor the princes, lords, and officials within the Ming Dynasty. Whoever dares to have a different heart will naturally kill him.

Because he has enough silver, the throne itself is not the right way for the Ming Emperor Zhu Qiyu, and he cares a lot about the voice inside the Ming Dynasty. I'm afraid that someone will oppose me.

As for such a trivial matter as killing corrupt officials, Xing'an is a little condescending.

Bai Minghe did not hesitate, and after taking the four things, he said, "My Bai family also has a salt business. I am in the match shop in the capital, not to mention the profit of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a year, and I will hand over the share of this match shop as a fine for my Bai family. Because I am an official, I have asked for a fine of ten years, and I have received it on behalf of my father. I'll write a notebook, long live the Holy Judge! ”

How much profit does the white crane have from the match workshop, Xing'an knows better than anyone that the white crane is really loyal to Long live.

Bai Chongxi was already sweating profusely, and he never dreamed that it would be so terrifying in the officialdom. His son doesn't know how many people's lives he holds in his hands at the moment, and the altruism of the match shop can't see it, but he understands it. Bai Minghe gave up this profit, which means that he has already made a murderous intention.

For the first time, Bai Chongxi would feel scared because of his son.

Not afraid of this matter, but afraid of his own son.

At the age of nineteen, he held the power of life and death of many officials, and when the Liu family said that his son was the de facto governor of the two provinces, he was still suspicious.

At this time, he had no doubt that his son in Guangdong was really the one in power.

Yu Qian patted Bai Minghe on the shoulder twice, and didn't say anything, this action was already a compliment. After that conversation with himself, Shirana Crane grew a lot overnight. The white crane is going to change the national policy of the Ming Dynasty, and it is really a good thing.

And the white-named crane walked up to his father in a few steps and knelt down: "Father, there is a country first and then a family, and national affairs should be important." The loss of the family is just a small matter, but Daming does not have a good atmosphere to shake the country. If the son is not filial, if he is allowed to go home to visit his relatives in the coming year, he will be punished by his father. ”

What could Bai Chongxi say, he just helped Bai Minghe up quickly.

He was proud to have such a son.

Hu Hu whispered to Qian at this time: "Lord Yu, Bai Minghe is talented, but there is one thing missing. ”

"What's missing?" Yu Qian didn't quite understand.

"Lord Yu actually knows, and now Lord Yu is this very important role. The white crane is like a thousand-mile horse, and you can hold the reins of the horse's head. Can it be done later? ”

After a good one, Yu Qian knew what Hu Hu meant, he was more than thirty years older than Bai Minghe, and if Bai Minghe reached his age, Bai Minghe's power would be unmatched at that time. Although he has enough experience, he is more capable. But there are inevitably no mistakes, no impulses.

Hu Hui posted closer: "Fortunately, you have a good student with Shang Chen." ”

"What do you mean, Old Hu?"

"That's what it means, no one but him can hold the white crane at a critical time, and he is the most suitable in terms of age." Hu Hu didn't say the name of the person, but Yu Qian understood it very well.

This person is the younger brother of the white crane. White Heron.

Yu Qian nodded, it seems that the cultivation of Bai Minglu has changed his thinking, Bai Minglu itself is a calm and calm person, plus this trait, Bai Minglu is really an excellent brake candidate.

"Will Da Ming really fight the four seas?" Yu Qian, as the secretary of the military department, knows very well that once this plan is launched, then he will be the brunt of the person, and there is absolutely no one. Even, he will become the most powerful figure in the Ming Dynasty, and there will definitely be no more than ten people who can compare with him.

As a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, to create a foundation for the Ming Dynasty, Yu Qian also had some excitement in his heart.

Hu Hu only said one word: "Snow!" (To be continued......)

ps: Seeing so many monthly passes yesterday, I am infinitely grateful to everyone in my heart.

Any words of thanks, it is not as real as today's addition.

Add more, first two watches, and continue after dawn.
