Section 290 Dugu Nine Swords
Shang asked a question, but Yu Qian stopped Bai Minglu from answering, and said, "Rong Benguan guesses." β
"Then I'll guess too!" Shang Yuxin said that he had also studied the white crane for a long time.
After thinking about it, Shang Yu replied first: "The white crane will take it whole." Yu Qian also replied: "Bai Minghe should have betrayed you by stealing snacks." And then take the opportunity to steal something else. β
Bai Minglu was a little embarrassed, these two adults really didn't have a good brother in their hearts.
After the two adults answered, Bai Minglu said, "My brother spent several months making some stone and wood snacks. Every time a new snack was put on the table, the brother had already changed the snack on the table. And then one or two of them are real, and that's where I'm used to taking them. β
Yu Qian and Shang Zhen really wanted to say that this product is really not a good thing.
But the white heron is still here, and he can't speak too badly of his brother.
"The Divine Decree has arrived!" There were shouts outside the door.
Almost at the same time, the entire capital was filled with the sound of edicts. All the holy decrees are one content, stop for two days, and on the twenty-second day of the third lunar month, rejoice with the people and celebrate with the whole country. A dumpling feast of 10,000 people was held in the square in front of Chengtianmen, and the elders, celebrities, filial sons, festival women, and poor scholars around the capital were invited.
After that, starting from the fourth day, there will be a three-day grand meeting in a row, summarizing the second year of Jingtai and looking forward to the third year of Jingtai.
After hearing the words summary and prospect, Yu Qian took a deep breath: "Bai Minghe finally made a move. This move, I, Yu Qian, want to see with my own eyes. How gorgeous it will be. β
Is it gorgeous?
Bai Minghe also received the holy decree, but after receiving the holy decree, he did not return to Nangong, but went to Dongchang.
"In terms of time, there will be no problem!" The white crane found Shu Liang.
"Don't worry, who delayed coming to see you!"
There is absolutely no problem with Daming's work efficiency, and the East Factory is definitely one of the better. Because if you don't do a good job, you will have a danger in your head, and under such an incentive, it is natural that the work efficiency is first-class.
After listening to Shu Liang's report in detail, Bai Minghe breathed a sigh of relief: "If you make a mistake." It will make Banzai lose face. β
"Then I can only apologize with death." Shu Liang is not talking about a slogan. It's the truth.
Bai Minghe didn't leave immediately, and went to the newly built warehouse to take a look, and several large stoves outside the warehouse were burning red. Shu Liang explained: "A lot of miscellaneous silver should be purified, and the silver should be cast according to fifty taels and one ingots. The subordinates invited merchants to help in the capital, and each family sent 30 people to help. The reason is that we don't have enough manpower. It is difficult to recast this silver before the New Year. β
"Yes. Let them see the stock of silver, and our silver bills can become hard currency! β
"But my lord. The merchant helped them smelt gold with a set, and only two processes were needed to achieve nine gold. We can only make nine golds. The merchant gang offered the method of smelting gold, and specially forged ten new furnaces. β
In fact, the gold of the Japanese people is also considered gold, and the lack of purity is not because the craftsmanship of the Japanese people is not enough, but for the sake of circulation, so low-purity gold is chosen.
Here you only need to separate the impurities, not to mention just nine hardware, so it is not difficult.
Returning to the main hall of Dongchang again, Shu Liang asked Bai Minghe: "Let's eat dinner here." β
"Good!" The white crane has no reason to refuse.
After finishing his official duties, Shu Liang just casually talked about a topic, saying that the story of Bai Minghe's original Du ten years was very interesting. I don't know if there are any stories that you can listen to.
"Tell a story. I'll tell you about a river and lake, but it's pure nonsense, don't get involved with anyone. β
Pure vernacular, simple and straightforward.
Bai Minghe spoke at the beginning, but he didn't go back to his house overnight, and these people in Dongchang kept asking Bai Minghe to continue talking, and all kinds of ways were to not let Bai Minghe go.
The story of the white crane is very interesting, and the most interesting of them is the Dugu Nine Swords and the Sunflower Treasure Book.
Internal strength, Da Ming has it, but unlike the internal power in the novel, Da Ming's internal power is a kind of breathing kung fu, which has been in Daomen for a long time, and it is the greatest restriction to improve people's physical fitness in the case of adjusting breathing. Then use the skills of power, as well as clever tricks, so it is internal strength.
Dugu Nine Swords, the masters of Dongchang still believe it, because when the sword is used to the extreme, there is no trick to win. It's just that no one can reach it.
As for the Sunflower Treasure Book, pure nonsense. Because the masters of the East Factory naturally know what kind of kung fu the eunuchs have.
The story of the white crane was quickly printed into a book, and at least a thousand taels of silver were exchanged in the capital, and the silver was not handed over to the white crane anyway, and the copyright of the white crane was hacked by the fans of Dongchang.
Finally, on the morning of the third day, Chengtianmen Square was the South Main Gate Square of the Forbidden City.
A hundred cauldrons were erected in the square, and then bags of noodles, meat, green onions, cabbage, and spices were piled up.
A huge copper horn with a diameter of more than one zhang was erected on the head of the city, and the Ming Emperor wore a costume and read a sacrificial text to worship heaven and earth, and then said: "Since ancient times, there is a saying, many sons and many blessings." I have made a decision privately, for the sake of the well-being of my Ming people, but anyone who has two children in the family ......"
Zhu Qiyu still read Bai Minghe's book of Jianyì, word for word.
The silence of the whole square and even the sound of the wind disappeared, which not only exempted from taxes, but also gave silver?
The people wondered if it was a dream.
Zhu Qiyu continued to say loudly: "Some people may think that this will affect the tax revenue of the Ming treasury. Then I will say, "Exempt the people from paying taxes on their money and grain, and I will make up for it with the silver stored in my house." Today, at this time. Every prefecture, state, and county in the entire Ming Dynasty will issue this order at the same time. β
Gao Gu smiled, always thinking that Bai Minghe was going to deal with him, but he didn't expect that Bai Minghe's sword was aimed at Hu Hu.
Hu Hu is still very calm, because he still has his own tricks, after all, he hasn't made a move yet, just long live to earn a little fame for himself, nothing.
"Next, I've been thinking about a question lately. A load of salt for Daming salt households is not as expensive as a load of rice, and the salt introduction and salt tax are only 22 yuan per catty, but the salt in the capital costs 300 wen a catty. β
"The old minister has a play!" Hu Hu was the first to stand up.
"Whatever you want to play, wait until I'm done." Zhu Qiyu gave a look, and immediately two little eunuchs blocked Hu Hu. Without waiting for Hu Hu to speak again, Zhu Qiyu immediately said: "From the beginning of the New Year, the salt will be under the control of the military. The highest price of salt is 60 wen a catty, and the lowest is 45 wen a catty. I want the people to be able to afford salt! β
"Hooray, hooray, hooray!" The whole square was full of cheers, and the people shouted wildly. The price of salt has dropped several times, and it seems that the order that the raw Ding has a reward is not fake.
"Someone!" Zhu Qiyu shouted.
A team of Dongchang elites ran out quickly, followed by a hundred cages containing a hundred people.
"Slash!" Zhu Qiyu doesn't have to be interrogated at all, and he doesn't have to go to court. These people have enough evidence, and Dongchang will naturally take enough evidence if they dare to arrest people.
Gao Gu saw clearly, and the first in line was Shi Heng.
A feudal official, who didn't even have a chance to pass the court, was beheaded off in front of the main gate of the palace before the New Year.
"Is he guilty?" Zhu Qiyu asked loudly.
No one answered, and no one knew how to answer this question.
Zhu Qiyu would not let anyone go because the courtiers did not answer, and said loudly: "The profit of a pound of salt is dozens of times, is this silver in the treasury?" No. Did the money benefit the people? No. Did this money pay for the border army's war? No! After Zhu Qiyu didn't have three in a row, he stretched out his hand and pointed at the Imperial Procuratorate.
The Metropolitan Procuratorate, you supervise hundreds of officials, and even have the right to hear about things. What have you done? Some people have coveted so much silver, and have fattened themselves and afflicted the people. What are you doing, are you blind? Are you deaf? Is it useful for you?
Zhu Qiyu asked three questions and answered three times, and it was not only Gao Gu who was stunned, but also Hu Hu.
"There was a courtier who wrote a recital for many officials when they were singing praises to me, and it was only eight words."
Empty talk misleads the country, but hard work prospers the country. Two huge sets of characters, each one a zhang wide, fell from both sides of the gate.
"With their blood, there is a clear world in the Ming Dynasty. Give Daming's New Year a touch of bright red!" Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty has never been so energetic as he is now, and a sense of satisfaction arises spontaneously.
In front of the city gate, Bai Minghe was biting his cigar and standing about twenty paces in front of Shi Heng.
Bai Hong took out a match to help Bai Minghe light the cigar, and Bai Minghe stretched out his hand and pointed at Shi Heng: "Today I will answer your original question." The mission of the first Caoyun Governor was to wash the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal with his blood. You can go with peace of mind, my white name crane is not a good person, but I will ensure that your wife and children are not implicated and go all the way. β
"White Crane!" Shi Heng shouted.
Bai Minghe turned his head to look at Shi Heng, Shi Heng stared at Bai Minghe, and spit out two words in his mouth: "Thank you!" β
Bai Minghe understood that Shi Heng's thanks was that he did not affect his wife and children, and did not send his wife and children to the teaching workshop, but was only demoted to the people, and he was not even deprived of the right to take the imperial examination.
Let go of the other party's family, isn't the white crane ruthless enough?
Shu Liang asked Xing'an on the side: "Father-in-law, will Bai Minghe think that he is soft-hearted if he does this." β
"His knife is dripping blood, sparing a few little people if it weren't for a whim. If a rule is formed, it will not do him any harm to us. As he said, the rivers and lakes will not be able to bring disaster to his wife and children, at least he is chivalrous. When Xing'an said this, he suddenly turned around: "Hu Hui's old thing seems to have vomited blood." β
"Looking at the smile on the face of the old man Gao Gu, it seems that the old man Hu is not good at cultivating his qi." Shu Liang was also talking coolly.
"Just like in that book, there are no tricks to win, and Bai Minghe will vomit blood if he makes a move this time if he is a miscellaneous encounter!" (To be continued......)
