Chapter 60 Respective Arrangements

Thinking about all the things that the Fan family did in the future, Zhou Chen's heart couldn't help but suddenly feel disgusted.

Fan Yongdou of the Fan family in the future took the eight major families of the Jin merchants to smuggle arms, grain and grass together to fund the Jurchen tribes in Liaodong, adding a handful of dry wood to the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

After the Jurchen tribe established Houjin and finally entered the Central Plains of Dingding, their eight families of Jin merchants even became the so-called eight imperial merchants.

For the things of the future, Zhou Chen is not good at making any evaluations.

However, with Zhou Chen's current status as an official of the Ming Dynasty, he naturally has no good impression of this kind of businessman who harms the interests of the Ming Dynasty.

A cold look flashed in his eyes, and Zhou Chen said in a deep voice: "Since the smugglers in the territory of Youyu County are mainly from this Fan and Tian families, then we will meet these two Jin merchant families for a while. ”

Then, he turned his gaze to Su Tong and Wang Yan: "I think that the Fan and Tian families also have shops in Youyu County.

Su County Cheng, the master of the king, early tomorrow morning, the two of you will find a reason to temporarily take the principals of these two shops, but inform the heads of the two families to come to Youyu County, and the official wants to meet them! ”

As soon as the words in Zhou Chen's mouth fell, Su Tong and Wang Yan had an inexplicable look on their faces.

In the end, I saw Su Tong arch his hand and said, "My lord, weren't you stopped by two groups of people fighting this evening?"

Those two groups of people were the guards of the Fan and Tian families who stayed in Youyu County to take care of the shops.

The person headed by both sides is the leader of the escort team, and he is also the person in charge of Fan and Tian in this Youyu County. ”

"Huh? And such a coincidence?! ”

Zhou Chen's eyes couldn't help but flash a look of surprise, and then he only heard him say: "That's right, the official originally planned to beat everyone on both sides of them and let them go."

Now it seems that they will have to stay in the prison for a few more days. ”

Wang Yan, the chief bookkeeper on the other side, also laughed and echoed Zhou Chen and said, "They dare to collide with you, my lord, and let them squat in the prison for a few more days is also deserved." ”

"Okay, it's not too early today, and this official won't delay you too much!"

Zhou Chen waved his hand noncommittally, and he finally gave the final order to everyone.

"Early tomorrow morning, General Tie will mobilize a thousand households to enter Youyu County."

His gaze was the first to look at Tie Shaotang, the commander of the right Yulin Guard.

"The last general commands!"

Tie Shaotang led the five thousand households under his command to stand up in unison, and responded with loud fists.

Zhou Chen nodded with satisfaction, and then moved his gaze to Su Tong and Wang Yan, only to hear him say in a deep voice: "Su Xiancheng, Master Wang, the two of you will be responsible for the heads of the Fan and Tian families."

The magistrate has given you three days, and before the deadline is reached, the magistrate shall see the heads of the two families in the hall of the county office. ”

"Xia Guan must do his best, at noon three days later at the latest, Xia Guan will definitely let the heads of the Fan and Tian families come to see you."

Su Tong and Wang Yan glanced at each other, and at the same time gritted their teeth and promised firmly.

"Okay, then the official will wait for the good news of the two."

Zhou Chen first looked at Su Tong and Wang Yan with approval in his eyes, and finally he turned his head to Chen Yun and Xu Yan, the two brocade-clothed guards, and said, "In these three days, you should not be idle.

This official wants more accurate and detailed information about the eight major families of Jin Shang, especially the information of the Fan and Tian families, the more detailed and accurate the better! ”

In the face of these Jin merchant families who were smuggling, Zhou Chen temporarily planned to deal with them by saluting first and then soldiering.

If these Jin merchant families knew each other, it would not affect Zhou Chen's errand of opening a mutual market pilot in Youyu County, so Zhou Chen would not bother to deal with them.

But if these Jin Shang families toast and don't eat and drink, Zhou Chen will definitely not be polite to them.

Emperor Hongzhi gave Zhou Chen a lot of privileges in order to try out the opening of the mutual market.

He is also holding the tiger talisman to control the entire Right Yulin Guard, and he is one of the fourteen thousand households in charge of the Jinyi Guard, so he is fully qualified and has the strength to act on the camera.

If it really annoys Zhou Chen, it will definitely not be difficult to destroy these Jin merchants.

Now that he is in charge of the Jinyi Guard, he can raid the mansion of a court official and then kill it, let alone destroy the full door of several merchant families.

After all, the characters and forces that colluded behind these Jin merchant families, no matter how powerful they were, could they still be stronger than Emperor Hongzhi, the controller of the entire Ming Dynasty?

As for whether offending too many people will affect Zhou Chen's future career, Zhou Chen has no worries at all.

Since the Yangxin Palace met Emperor Hongzhi, Zhou Chen received the Jinyi Wei Qianhu token in the hands of Emperor Hongzhi, and Zhou Chen's heart was prepared to be political enemies from top to bottom.

This will not only not affect Zhou Chen's career, but will be more beneficial to Zhou Chen, and Emperor Hongzhi is even more willing to see Zhou Chen set up political enemies.

Because only in this way can Emperor Hongzhi rest assured that the sharp blade of Jinyiwei is in Zhou Chen's hand.

Regarding the deep meaning in Zhou Chen's words, Chen Yun and Xu Yan, the two brocade guards, also understood it very well, and the two of them immediately gave up their hands and said: "Please rest assured, the two of them will go back to search for the evidence of the crimes of the eight major families of the Jin Merchants, in case you need it." ”

"Now that you have made your own affairs clear, then this official will not leave you, you all go down and rest!"

Zhou Chen bowed slightly, and while he picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip of tea, he said indifferently.

"My lord, the last general will retire!"

"My lord, the official retires!"

Everyone in the audience also understood Zhou Chen's action of serving tea to send off guests, and they immediately bowed to Zhou Chen and said goodbye.

In the end, only Badao, who was silent all the time and never said half a word, remained in the hall and accompanied Zhou Chen.

After slowly drinking the tea in the teapot, Zhou Chen, who had been pondering for a long time again, put down the teacup in his hand and went to the back house of the county government to rest under the leadership of the maid.

And Ba Dao was also guided by the maid, and found a side room in the county government's back house and lived in.

If nothing else, in the next three or five years, Zhou Chen and Badao will both live in this Youyu County Ya.
