The complaint is finally here! Look at what those things are for, you don't need to look at Zhou Huchen to know what they are.

Is this a question of guilt? These Jin merchants still have some ability! However, Zhou Huchen is really not afraid, when is it now, the imperial court uses troops everywhere, a vassal king has no right to speak at all, let alone other rights, a dung machine is not worthy of Zhou Huchen's respect.

How could Zhou Huchen be afraid of a dung machine, he was not afraid of anyone, even the Shanxi governor Cai Maode in front of him did not have to be afraid, as for those civil officials and imperial history, it is estimated that there is no time, Li Zicheng is already uncontrollable, these people are like fools to impeach Zhou Yuji It is useless, because Shanxi is a barrier in Beijing, Zhou Yuji's role is too important, the situation is like this, the emperor's handling is no longer necessary.

Thinking about it, doing it, it is right to give the old governor a little face, Zhou Hu pretended to pick up the papers, as well as the detailed list of "donations" and looked at it.

Cai Maode looked at Zhou Huchen like this, how he hoped that this matter was not true, this tiger-headed young man in front of him was too good, as the son of the commander of a province with heavy troops, given time, as long as Zhou Yuji was not dismissed, in the future, Zhou Huchen will definitely make a difference, and the future is limitless

"What a thing! It is true that many Shanxi businessmen have 'donated' a lot of food, but they are voluntary, and the kid did not force them! Zhou Huchen raised his head, he looked at Cai Maode with sincere eyes, these eyes were as clear as water, without a trace of guilt, and sincerely broke Cai Maode's heart.

"Donating" a large amount of food?

Cai Maode was almost outraged by Zhou Huchen's shameless statement: "A lot of food! Millions of taels of silver, hundreds of thousands of stone of grain, is this possible? Those stingy businessmen are greedy for money, they are all people who break a copper plate and use it, how can they willingly 'donate' so much food? Xiaohu, do you believe this statement yourself? ”

"Of course it is! Boss, this shows that our businessmen in Shanxi know the general situation, know the righteousness of the imperial court, and respect the etiquette and education of the saints, so these 'righteous businessmen' will have such righteous deeds! ”

“”

I don't even believe it! Recognize the general situation, the righteousness of the court, the etiquette and education of the saints, and return the righteous deeds! Cai Maode once again felt the shamelessness in this Zhou Huchen's clear eyes, this young man who is good at quibbling still has such sincere eyes, God! O earth! This shijie has such a shameless person!

"If you don't believe it, can you send someone to verify, if the kid has a lie, you can deal with it!" Fortunately, Zhou Huchen was very cautious and a little shameless, he didn't say it shamelessly; There is a half-nonsense in this sentence.

Cai Maode shook his head, this is an almost unchangeable fact, that is, Cai Maode killed him a hundred times, he would never believe that those merchants would not be threatened to "donate" such a large amount of food, otherwise, these merchants would not be the title of merchants, they could be called saints.

"You still don't believe it, sir! This is really a 'voluntary donation', I have all the businessmen's 'donation' documents as evidence, these people still have the plaques of the businessmen, there are pennants, and there are righteous monuments in their hometowns as evidence, boss, you can check! The kid is not lying! “

Zhou Huchen showed an expression of infinite disappointment, this expression was so sincere, sincere and almost deceived Cai Maode, but fortunately, Cai Maode was still sober.

This is undoubtedly a passive "voluntary donation" with a knife, Zhou Huchen can't deceive Cai Maode, but if there is really those conclusive evidence, it is still easy to do!

Cai Maode understood, under this Zhou Huchen's harmless face and expression, he was a cruel and fierce heart, and he was cheap to describe him as tyrannical, this is a person, he knows what to do seamlessly, Cai Maode is convinced!

Facing this veteran old man, Zhou Huchen knew that he couldn't be fooled, so he decided to be shocked again, so that the old man could understand the importance of this matter.

"Boss, if you think about it, do the math, our army has nearly 50,000 soldiers, each of whom has to give ten taels of silver to settle down, and each soldier has a monthly salary of one or two and a half cents, how much silver is needed to support this? How much more food is needed to feed the soldiers?

This does not include the salaries of those special branches and officers, such as; We will have the scribes of the army, the salaries of the officers, all kinds of instructors, the night of non-collection, scouts, and so on

Our nearly 50,000 soldiers must be dressed! Spring and autumn clothes, summer clothes, winter clothes, everyone needs to wear clothes, and they also need all kinds of armor and corresponding equipment, which are all a lot of silver!

We must use firearms! How much does it cost per gun? We also have to have firecrackers, and the firecrackers in our army only use Lumi guns, how much is a Lumi gun? And to use grenades, but also to use mines, how much gunpowder to use for weekday training? If the weapon is damaged, it must be repaired and replaced, and it also needs silver!

Let's talk about cavalry, a batch of war horses will not be less than twenty taels of silver, you always know this! And raising a war horse is equivalent to raising ten ordinary soldiers, a war horse not only needs a variety of protective equipment, it also needs a lot of food to feed, the armor and weapons of the cavalry can not always be the same as ordinary soldiers, the salary is three times that of ordinary soldiers, we are eight thousand war horses and soldiers!

With so many soldiers, there is always a need for camps, right? Need a training ground, right? This also occupies a large amount of people's land, but it occupies the people's land, and we are not bandits, we can't occupy it in vain, and we can't let those people fall into the streets to ask for food! Therefore, we have to compensate, this is another large sum of silver!

In addition, we need workshops, we need to buy copper and iron, and we need to raise those craftsmen to build weapons and maintain various equipment for us, which is a huge amount of silver!

That's nearly 50,000 troops, how much does it take? If the merchants are not allowed to 'donate' food, how can we have silver, and can the court count on it? How do we raise the army and how do we strengthen it? If you want to rob the people, won't you really become a bandit! ”

Cai Maode has been confused by these numbers and reasons put forward by Zhou Huchen, he rubbed his head desperately, in fact, it is not easy for anyone!

"May I ask you again, sir, is it a matter of state? Or is it the businessman who matters?! ”

"Naturally, it is an important state affair, but in this way, where is the law of the imperial court!" This Zhou Hu is too capable of speaking, Cai Maode was made to speak unfavorably by Zhou Huchen, who was covered in clouds and mountains: "Such a violent trip, Xiaohu can't be like this!" Let the old man explain to the court and the people! And it's not a long-term solution! ”

I've done that! Who can do what to me! Need a long-term solution? Zhou Huchen was disdainful in his heart; To confess, to confess what? The court is about to be finished! As for the people, they will soon be bound by braids! If you don't take it now, you will leave it to the enemy. Zhou Huchen decided that one day, he would take it again, and never leave the enemy with these capital to attack him.

These can only be thought about but not said, Zhou Huchen still feels that this old master needs to educate him by himself, so that he can play a brainwashing role.

"Boss, the country is so weak, it needs strong troops now, and we need to stand up! Could it be that the old man just watched the country have no soldiers to fight, just watched my Ming Dynasty being repeatedly plundered by Jiannu, watched the people being wantonly slaughtered by those chaotic people, and just watched my Ming Dynasty weaken day by day!

It is our duty to defend the country, and no cost is as important as the interests of the country!

For a long time, the sky is not far from falling apart!

My little tiger will not sit idly by and watch my Ming continue to be weak like this, I want to fight for this country and fight for China!

Aren't those merchants my people of the Ming Dynasty? Isn't it a descendant of China?

They are the richest people in the country, and they earn the hard-earned money of the vast majority of working people! Shouldn't they do something for this stormy country and for the continuation of this China?! ”

Zhou Huchen's words are too incendiary, and this is definitely not a fool, this is the so-called righteousness of Confucianism (of course, personal understanding is different), and the Ming Dynasty has shown signs of complete collapse.

Cai Maode, who understood these truths, became more and more discouraged

Suddenly, Cai Maode raised his head: "Xiaohu, don't say it!" The old man never received those documents, and he never received those old men and they didn't receive anything! The old man doesn't know anything."

Cai Maode is a person who lives for the country after all, otherwise he would not have resolutely chosen to commit suicide and martyrdom after the defeat in Taiyuan.

As for surrendering Li Zicheng, it is not a choice, although he is a little aggrieved and his reputation may be damaged, but with a high-level intellectual like Cai Maode, a feudal official of a province, he is very good at governing the local area, and his intricate network of Shilin relations is undoubtedly worth Li Zicheng's money. Li Zicheng can give him high-ranking officials, as long as Cai Maode surrenders, he doesn't have to worry about his life at all, to put it more thoroughly, Cai Maode's ending is to die for responsibility, which is a kind of insistence from the bones.

Zhou Huchen just touched that point, and this point touched the heartstrings so much that Cai Maode couldn't avoid it at all.
