It's just that this time the situation has changed abruptly, and Liang Xiaoshang, who was as black as coal in the past, turned over. First of all, he went out to suppress the bandits, and received an order from Yan Hong not to return without authorization, so he left the death zone of Jinan. Qin Delu took the right guard to defend Jinan for 16 days, and more than half of the troops were killed or wounded, but the main force of the left guard brought out by Liang Xiaoshang was unscathed, and only some of the auxiliaries and masters who remained in Jinan City were temporarily seconded by Qin Delu to send them to death. On the day when Yang Bo ordered the return of reinforcements, Liang Xiaoshang took the left guards and horses and the reinforcements from the province to kill them back, and slaughtered the rout of the White Lotus Sect outside the city of Jinan, cutting off more than 1,000 heads before and after, which was really a great achievement.

Besides, since he and Gao Yanzong are not all the way, on the contrary, it is very wrong, then after Gao Yanzong committed a mortal crime and fell, according to the idiotic principle that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, the sins of the past have become merits, and in the past, he disrespected the chief and despised the chief, so he became loyal and unyielding, and refused to go along with it, and Commander Liang changed from a lonely minister to a great loyal minister of the country. As a result, he was promoted to the commander of the Shandong capital, which made Qin Delu's eyes red for a long time, thinking that Lao Tzu and the Mongols had played for half a month, and the result was cheaper.

When the one who should be killed is killed, and the reward that should be rewarded, the next thing is to receive the treasure of the White Lotus. Yan Hong and Zhang Cheng took a group of henchmen to register all the gold and silver in the cellar of the royal mansion. As for the various treasures, they were estimated and made in batches by the old courtiers in different pawnshops.

This White Lotus Sect's savings for hundreds of years is really not trivial, and after some estimates, it is enough to cover the sum of the income of the Ming treasury for several years. It's just that it is impossible to hand over all this money, and how can you not leave a few points of fat after handling three points of fat? This conundrum. It was placed in front of Yan Hong, Yan Daqincha and his allies.

Zhang Cheng was just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old eunuch. The silver tickets that I have seen in the capital are of the order of magnitude of tens or hundreds. This time he came out with Yan Hong, and received bribes of tens of thousands of taels of silver along the way, and he was already angry, and he was blackmailed by Yan Hong when he turned around, and asked Hai Rui to buy grain for disaster relief. Seeing the eight-figure sum of money at this time, he no longer cries and laughs.

After the wide mouth was finally closed, Grandpa Zhang expressed his thoughts. He believes that the best thing is to add two to five. Half of it was handed over to the imperial court, and half of it was divided among his own people. In total, Zhang Gonggong can make millions.

Yan Hongxin said, uncle, you don't have a son, you are not afraid of crushing yourself to death with so much silver? He persuaded him in turn: "Father-in-law Zhang, you can't swallow all this money." The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty, and you and I will take all the benefits. It is plain and eye-catching, and everyone is ugly. In my opinion. Why don't you do it like this? According to the rules thought by the court bigwigs, all the confiscated property should go to Taicang. But the emperor's inner treasury, how can we not think of it at all if we eat the king's fortune and repay the king's kindness? Therefore, we first reported 50% of the property to the household department and distributed it to them. In the other fifty percent, three were drawn into the inner library. Long live you, you will be happy, and you will praise you for knowing how to be a man, which will naturally be beneficial in the future. The remaining 20 percent, you and I will divide it equally, and each person can get 10 percent. Of course, this success can't be in vain, my court, your palace, and the people involved in this trip, everyone has to take care of it. Guys, you can't miss some benefits. In my opinion, each of us will take out 1/20 to make a point. No matter how big the turmoil is, with so much gold and silver, it can be calmed down. ”

When Zhang Cheng heard this, he couldn't help nodding and said: "It's still reasonable for Gongzi Yan, our family has no knowledge, and it's all up to Gongzi to point out." ”

Yan Hong and Zhang Cheng have reaped the benefits, and the four families in Jinan are not charitable institutions, the reason why they are desperate this time, and they have contributed people, food and money, and even organized the family Ding army to participate in the defense of the city in the last two days, naturally they have their intentions. This was changed by Jinan officialdom, several senior officials were taken and killed, and Zuo Erguan was also mobilized and degraded. Except for those Yan Hong, who made contributions to defending the city, the group was too close to Liu Cai and others, and they didn't know how to behave, so they lost their officials one after another. In Jinan City alone, there are many vacant official positions.

Fourth, who has no relationship with themselves, and who does not have their own spokesperson? In addition to knowing the truth that the Dao tree is scattered, the other plan is to enter the chess pieces of their own side in the future government pattern. And the sons and nephews of the four families who are traveling abroad are even led by Yan Hong, and Yan Jiabao is promoted and transferred. During this period, there is naturally some money exchange and interest settlement.

In particular, Yan Hong also vaguely revealed some signs of opening the sea. The land of Shandong is the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, and the trade is far less prosperous than that of Jiangnan, since the imperial court banned the sea in the past, the four major families could not take this risk, so they were controlled by the private merchants in Jiangnan from the sea trade, and the four families and those private merchants in Jiangnan were not only not people on the same road, but they were quite blushing when they watched them collect money, but they did not have the courage to violate the ban, so they could only scold a few times at home to vent.

I had to listen to Yan Hong talk about the benefits of opening the sea, and I thought that if the sea trade was legalized, why wouldn't I, a Shandong businessman, also participate in making money? Of course, no one in the court is an official, and no one in the court is not a rebel. If you want to make money, you have to have someone in the court. With this bit of interest, they naturally have a closer relationship with Yan Hong.

There are also the fields and shops of Wang Xuan's family, which were manipulated by Yan Hong, half sold and half given away, and were distributed to the four families. And before that, the four families gave a lot of military rations, and actively helped salaries, and also sent family members to help in the war, Yan Hong converted these expenses into service money for them, and calculated inside and out, basically without spending a single penny, they could swallow a lot of real estate. This account is calculated, and the four families actually make a lot of money.

Drink water and don't forget to dig wells, the four families are not confused, and naturally know who will be their backer in the future, and Yan Daqin will naturally get another benefit there. As for Yan Hong, although he prepared a six-figure amount of silver from Wang Xuan's treasury this time, he didn't have a lot of money, not to mention that Wang Xuan's silver still had to be handed over to his family, so the silver sent by the four local tyrants was still as much as possible.

Not to mention the land of Shandong, there is another case of money, that is, private salt. Salt is a thing that has a very low production cost and is indispensable to everyone, and it is a super way to make money that is nominally monopolized by the state. In the past, Wang Xuan dominated the salt road in Shandong, and outsiders couldn't intervene, but now that he is finished, his strength has also been uprooted, and this road is empty again.

The four families have said that the people's eating salt is a matter of people's livelihood, and as a local gentry, they are also interested in intervening. If you want to talk about strength, you don't have to worry. The four families all raised thugs and nurses, and even took advantage of this Jinan defense battle to recruit many homeless people with the money and food in their hands. What is lacking is only the cooperation of the government.

It's just that Hai Rui was still there that day, and these people didn't dare to mention it, and now there is Yan Xiaoxianggong, who is basically negative in this discipline, what else can't be said? Yan Hong also knew in his heart that this private salt was now forbidden, and if everyone else didn't do it, others would do it. At the moment, I secretly promised to do more within my ability.

These giant businessmen are also good at being people, and they pulled Old Man Sun in and gave him a dry share. It is important to know that smuggling salt over the mountains and mountains is inseparable from the attitude of Shandong Green Forest. The heroes of the green forest want to be friends with you, escort you all the way safely, and help you lead away the officers and soldiers. Otherwise, even if you have a master guard, you can't guard against it. Although Sun Lie has washed his hands after recruiting An, Jiwei is still there, and his face, the ringing horses mixed in the green forests of Shandong still have to be sold. With him stepping forward to build a bridge, this private salt business can't go wrong in the underworld.

As the saying goes, hello, hello, everyone. Yan Hong saw a lot of help from the four major families in the siege of Jinan, especially on the second day when the large-scale disaster relief began. Therefore, even the daughters of several families who married into the Wang family, according to the law, were also tricked by Yan Hong and released. As for what to do with the family after he comes out, it has nothing to do with him.

As a result, officials and businessmen colluded, and the relationship between them became more solid. So for a few days in a row, the four families took turns to entertain guests, and Yan Hong was darkened. In addition to the Guo family's hospitality, they stayed with Yan Hong. Yan Hong's big event here is over, and he expects that this businessman will not have any bad intentions, so it is better to be respectful than to obey his fate. That night, Guo Shoucheng's granddaughter, who married the beauty of Wang Xuan's son, actually recommended herself as a pillow and accompanied Yan Hong for the night. This move can be regarded as a move that shows that the relationship between Yan Hong and the Guo family is a little closer than that of other families, Guo Shoucheng seems to regard himself as Yan Hong's spokesperson in Shandong, and he has the potential to take Wang Xuan's behalf.

It's just that this matter is not secret, and the rumors have leaked. After hearing this, Hong Shengyuan, the head of the Hong family, stomped his feet and scolded: "Old Guo is shameless! Although your granddaughter was also known as Jinan a few years ago, she has long since changed. Besides, I think my four major Shandong families are all poetry and book families, talking about etiquette and shame, and what I want is a clean and innocent style, and there is no remarried daughter in the family. It's really embarrassing for you to let a widow lose her temper and send the daughter-in-law of the anti-thief king Xuan to defile the bed of the old man? Are all the daughters in your house dead? Come on, go to my Hong family, find a handsome girl who has not left the cabinet, and I will invite Qincha to drink tonight. ”

The heart of self-defense is indispensable, and the confidentiality work of the old man and his old man is actually not in place, and the Li and Liu families soon smelled the smell. After the head of the Li family scolded bitterly, he found a girl from the near branch to accompany him, which was a little closer than the weak branch of the Hong family. The head of the Liu family was the latest, so he only won by surprise, but he found a pair of twin sisters and came to accompany him, and finally did not fall behind.

These businessmen competed with each other to bribe, anyway, compared to the benefits that Yan Hong gave them, this investment was worth a thousand dollars. And Yan Hong has enjoyed countless glamorous blessings in vain, but Sun Yuerong has been in bed for many days. In fact, if it weren't for Yan Hong's unusual love for the ugly girl Sun, he couldn't easily take a concubine when he opened his mouth and closed his mouth, otherwise these four families would really have the intention to find a few female relatives from their own families to marry and form a more stable alliance.
