Chapter 78: A Gentleman Loves Money

Xiong Wencan closed the door to greet guests, hid in the study and pondered for a long time, then disguised himself, slipped out of the back door with a few guards, and quietly went to visit Song Xiance.

As the number one leader in Fujian, he knows some things that others don't know, he doesn't know that there are a few noble old princes who sneak away from their own jurisdiction, but he knows that Song Xiance, who came with the angel to reward Zheng Zhilong, is a confidant of the Son of Heaven.

After the angel read out the holy decree, he rested for two days after the reward was over and set off to return to Beijing, but the mysterious Mr. Song stayed in Fujian, and he was with Zheng Zhilong all day long.

Theoretically, Zheng Zhilong, a coastal defense guerrilla, was restrained by him, but in fact, no one can control him, and people obey you on the surface, which is polite, give you face, don't know what to do.

Xiong Wencan naturally knew the doorway inside, and under the pressure of those gentry and powerful businessmen, he sent Zheng Zhilong a few official documents with inexplicable and wonderful content without any substance, such as your eldest son, Zheng Sen, when he lived a life? Remember to call me when you have a banquet, are you engaged? There is no good and so on.

When Zheng Zhilong received those official documents, he was stunned for most of the day and didn't understand the deep meaning of them, until the staff explained that it was the Tai Chi magic trick played by Governor Xiong to fool the gentry and powerful businessmen, and also said that he didn't care about his actions, which made Zheng Zhilong laugh and even praised Lao Xiong for being funny.

Song Xiance was busy with the formation of the sea wolf fleet, and when he heard that Xiong Wencan asked to see him, he was stunned for a while before sighing: "Sure enough, they are all human spirits." ”

Although he was a favorite minister of the Son of Heaven, he didn't dare to put any music with a governor-level official like Xiong Wencan, so he summed it up with several noble old princes and went out to meet Xiong Wencan together.

Xiong Wencan knew those noble old princes, and when he saw them coming out with Song Xiance, his heart suddenly jumped, there was really a lot of article here, fortunately he was not reckless, otherwise it would be a big trouble.

Song Xiance and the others had already discussed, so when communicating with Xiong Wencan, they revealed some information intentionally or unintentionally, instead of watching those gentry make money and make a fortune, it is better to earn it yourself, do you play? Give me a good word, anyway, what was said, out of this door, no one will admit it.

"The old man is cheeky, hehe."

Xiong Wencan laughed, hugged his fists at Song Xiance and others, and expressed his gratitude, he is a good official, but he is not a clean official with clean sleeves, and he has taken a lot of money that should not be taken, no way, there are more than 20 people in the family, where can he afford it with his salary, even if he can afford it, no one will be afraid of money biting his hand, the most important thing is to climb the dragon boat of the Son of Heaven, and form an alliance with Zheng Zhilong, who masters the sailors, and things will be much easier to do in the future.

The gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, so he agreed very happily, there is no psychological pressure at all, Song Xiance and they are all playing a serious business, but they are just using the official power to fight their peers and achieve the purpose of monopoly, compared to many gentlemen who collect black money, they are too pure, pure and whiter than white paper.

When Song Xiance and several noble old princes took Xiong Wencan to Zheng Zhilong's hiding nest, Zheng Zhilong was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and saluted Xiong Wencan solemnly, Zheng Wencan also politely returned the salute, and the two sides were allies.

With new allies joining, of course the benefits have to be redistributed, the Son of Heaven can't move, Zheng Zhilong generously gave one percent to Xiong Wencan, so that Xiong Wencan was grateful, of course, although he took one percent, but he also had to take out a part of the mouth of the subordinate officials, and then set aside a little money to appease the people, in fact, after apportioning it, he got at most four points in that one percent.

Of course, don't underestimate that Yicheng, it looks very little, but the amount is very strong, Xiong Wencan's four points alone are much more than the group of gentry and heroes who are filial piety every year, and there is no need to owe them favors, look at their faces, Xiong Wencan's brain did not enter the water, and he decisively and mercilessly kicked those gentry and powerful businessmen away.

Zheng Zhilong is so generous, the purpose is to marry Xiong Wencan, the number one, on the surface, he did lose a lot of money, but the account is not calculated like this, and all aspects of the problem must be taken into account, the most important thing is to cooperate with a leader like an iron buddy, there are no constraints, how to play comfortably, and besides, the Zheng family's business is big and numerous, and they don't care about this money.

With the participation of Neng Wencan, it is more convenient for everyone to act, this Wen Yiwu and the two bigwigs hugged the group, plus the Son of Heaven supported him behind his back, and the energy was so strong that he was rampant in Fujian, God blocked and killed God, and ghosts blocked and killed ghosts.

Of course, there are some things that still have to be covered up, Xiong Wencan and Zheng Zhilong cooperate sincerely, one pretends to be red-faced, the other pretends to be black-faced, and acts in a double reed play very tacitly, fooling all the people who don't know the inside story into being sold and helping them count the money.

Zheng Zhilong had a very happy time in the waters of Fujian, and he also tossed the gentry and made them miserable, and Zhu Jian's dragon case was also full of twists and turns to impeach Zheng Zhilong and Xiong Wencan.

Those civil officials thought that Zhu Jian's re-chanting of the "Forbidden Sea Order" was just child's play, and no one really cared, this "Forbidden Sea Order" has been praised for N years, and merchant ships are still rampant on the sea, even if the local officials know, as long as they stuff a sum of silver, they all turn a blind eye and pretend not to know, the only thing to worry about is the hateful pirates, but as a result, Zheng Zhilong, who has the head of Mu Yu, is playing real, and the oil and salt are not soaked, cutting off everyone's financial routes, how can they not be so angry that they will be willing to knock him down, Even Xiong Wencan, who was inactive, was impeached, and it would be better if Xiong Wencan could be brought down as well.

"Didn't the love of the people strongly oppose the opening of the sea a few days ago?" Zhu Jian asked with a pure and serious expression, since you all think that I have violated the ancestral system and strongly oppose the opening of the sea, then I will follow yours, do not open the sea, continue to ban the sea, and now that the sea is banned, you say no, what do you want to play?

The "Sea Ban Order" has been promulgated, well, it is done according to your intentions, Zheng Zhilong has also seriously implemented the sea ban policy, sealed and confiscated many ships and goods, and enriched the Fujian treasury, isn't this meritorious, why did it become guilty? Don't fool me as a little friend, I also have a temper, and now, I want you to have a reasonable explanation.

When Zhu Jian said that he needed a reasonable explanation, he said it with a cold face, gritted his teeth, his voice was very cold, revealing a shocking aura, and a murderous aura, and he also pointed to the two officials who shouted the most, one was from the Donglin Party and the other was from the Ruan Jiangnan faction, in his heart, these two unlucky people were destined to be stabbed.

It doesn't matter if you are angry, whether you are angry, whether you are a good bully, if you don't cut off a few heads, right?
