Seeing that the members of the special combat team arrived in a hurry, Wang Xuan smiled and shouted for the rest of his life, "I'll leave the rest to you, I promise that whoever kills those two family masters will let their family live, you deal with it, I don't care, they have packed their belongings, and you can check the rest." ”

"My subordinates understand." The rest of your life should be with a fist.

Wang Xuan patted him on the shoulder, "I don't have to worry about you doing things, go ahead." ”

"Oh, wait, I almost forgot about the guard, Ye Chao, you take some people to solve the high-level of the Zhangzhou guard."

"In addition, I will take someone to chase Tian Boguang and bring all my money back!"

After everything is explained, there will be nothing to do with Wang Xuan.

By noon, the property taken by the Liu family was also recovered, and after a calculation together, the property of the three families exceeded 10 million taels, and with the command of the guard post who 'sacrificed his life for the country', the three families harvested a total of 13 million taels of property and 500,000 mu of land.

Wang Xuan calculated that the seven families had a total of 1.2 million mu of land and more than 29 million taels of property!

And that's not even counting things like the leader and antique calligraphy and paintings, after all, there's no set value for how much those things are worth.

These gains alone made Wang Xuan a little staggered, you know, now the entire Ming Dynasty only pays more than three million taels of silver a year.

The silver taels that can be copied from these seven families are equivalent to the taxes of the eight years of the Ming Dynasty, of course, the tax of more than three million taels here refers to the tax of silver taels alone, not counting the income from fields, salt, iron, tea, etc.

In addition, the arable land of the Ming Dynasty is decreasing every year, from Yongle to Wanli, the land tax has fallen by as much as thirty percent, which is because a large number of royal children were divided into various places, resulting in the reduction of the imperial land.

Early the next morning, Wang Xuan and his entourage got on the big boat at the dock and returned, Wang Xuan found out after the first raid that this particular big boat might not be enough, so he flew pigeons early to pass the book, and mobilized three big boats in a row, which can be regarded as transporting back the confiscated property of these families at one time.

As for the people of the special combat team, they were still led by Yu Sheng to return by land, there were too many people and horses, and the ship did not have such a large transportation capacity.

It took five days to return to Fuzhou again, and this sudden incident, a little more than ten days before and after, actually wiped out the seven major families that had been entrenched in Fujian for hundreds of years, completely destroyed the top-level power structure in Fujian, and completely paved the way for Wang Xuan to build Fujian into an iron bucket.

Among the vaults that were all transported to expand again, which Wang Xuan specially ordered to expand before leaving, underground, all reinforced concrete structure, with a thickness of one meter, the gate was cast in iron, up to ten centimeters thick, and the anti-theft coefficient was first-class.

After returning to his residence, Wang Xuan left Ye Chao and Qing Hong alone, the main body of the seven major families has been defeated, but there are still many branches in various places, and if these branches are not cut off, it will be a trouble sooner or later.

These materials are all in the hands of the night, from Beijing officials to local officials, divided into three categories: officials of the seven major families, officials of the side lines, and officials who support and support.

Taking this information, Wang Xuan briefly looked at it, there are the least number of members of the lineage, only a dozen, some are high and some are low, and there are not many side lines, and the most are the officials who support the support, the total number is not less than eighty, but the relatives are different, these eighty people are not so close, and they are not dead set on the seven families.

"Fang Jingtian, what do you think, those of these people need to be eliminated."

Wang Xuan handed the information to a person beside him, this person's name is Fang Jingtian, a native of Jianning Mansion in Fujian Province, a person with an average family background, even if he got the fame of lifting people, he only received a lot of fields for tax avoidance under his name, and he didn't get admitted to the Jinshi exam for more than ten years, and he wanted to be an alternate official, but because he didn't have much money in his hand, he couldn't give it away, and he didn't see results in line for five or six years.

Later, the new city established by Wang Xuan needed a lot of managers, and after various screenings, this person was selected, and his ability was not bad, at least there were few things in the city that needed to trouble Wang Xuan.

Fang Jingtian took the information and looked at it, pondered for a moment and said: "The descendants must be removed, and the side ones cannot be kept, there are not many people in this part, and they can't have much impact, as for those officials who are supported, I think they can still be co-opted." ”

"Hmm." Wang Xuan nodded, that's it, anyway, it didn't take it to his heart, "Qinghong, then you will take the people of your Killer Hall around, and let the two deputy hall masters Gu Nan and Wuya both bring some people, divide the troops into three ways, and get rid of those people." ”

"No problem, the only pity is that there is no way to raid the house, tsk, how much less is this!"

"You're addicted to copying your home, okay, pay attention when you kill people, try to die in a bizarre way, don't leave any tricks, even if everyone knows that we did it, but on the bright side, you have to get by."

"What's weird?"

"For example, if you can let Gu Nan jump out and kill people openly, just say that this person has been abandoned from the beginning to the end, and she has come to take revenge."

"Poisoned, strong aphrodisiac, let him die of exhaustion directly on the woman."

"Brain-shattering in my sleep."

"Assassinated by the local martial arts sect or bandits."

"Bitten by a poisonous snake or poisonous insect."

"There are many ways, improvisation, it's just that the people of Lin Yan's two families, let them commit suicide in fear of crime, or disappear."

Pay attention to the way of killing, Wang Xuan can come up with a hundred ways.

"Okay, I understand, I'll leave tomorrow."

"Ye Chao, you are taking people to Funing Prefecture tomorrow, and let the people from the border guard post sacrifice their lives for the country, the opportunity to make trouble is relatively rare."

"Okay."

"Okay, that's it, let's disperse."

After these people dispersed, Wang Xuan couldn't be idle, he still had to go to see Governor Li, after all, the matter was so big, he still had to give an explanation to the imperial court, in addition, the annihilation of more than 3,000 people before and after the 'Japanese Kou', this credit also had to be reported, and finally, the commander of the guard post and the thousand households in the land of the three provinces had to be reappointed.

There are a lot of things, not counting the 1.2 million mu of land that Wang Xuan looted this time, how to dispose of so much land, he didn't think about holding it in his own hands.

The carriage drove into the city with a grunt, and Wang Xuan directly asked Governor Li to meet in Qiu Shiju.

The two sat opposite each other, and eight plates of exquisite dishes were served at the table.

"In terms of eating, Qiu Shiju is the best I've ever seen." Governor Li sighed.

"Oh? Isn't there anything better in the capital? What about the royal feast? Wang Xuan was also curious about this.

Li Shantang, as a second-grade member, has also seen royal banquets, so he naturally has a say in Wang Xuan's question, "In comparison, the royal family is just more varied, and there has been no change in taste for hundreds of years." ”

"How so? Don't the chefs in the palace study new dishes and new flavors? Wang Xuan frowned, he didn't understand this.

"Hey, hey." Governor Li smiled strangely, and then shook his head again, "With you, I have nothing to say, this emperor, really, it's not good to be!" ”

Wang Xuan knew this that most of these emperors of the Ming Dynasty had never walked out of the Forbidden City in their lives, and they didn't count what they said to the civil and military officials above and below, and they were all puppets who were at the mercy of them.

"Let's not talk about anything else, just talk about what we eat and drink, why we haven't changed the taste for hundreds of years, it's all exquisite."

"In terms of drinking, many of the various precious teas are tributes, but do you know that the emperor has never drunk fresh tea." Speaking of this, Governor Li smiled again and put a chopstick shark fin into his mouth to taste it carefully, and then continued: "This is because some tea leaves are not guaranteed to produce so much every year, what if there is an accident, do you tell the emperor that this tea is gone this year, let's talk about it next year, this is definitely not good, doesn't this seem to be unfavorable for everyone." ”

"The best way is to give the emperor last year's aged tea, even if there is an accident, there is still a stock of the bottom to go up, and there will be no mistakes."

"It's the same thing with this imperial meal, is the new flavor that comes out of it suitable for the emperor's taste? Even if you agree with the emperor's wishes, but you let the emperor taste a new taste today, what if the emperor continues to ask for new flavors in the future? Who can guarantee that new flavors can often be made, and it will be in line with the emperor's wishes, this is not once or twice a day, two days, what if you can't get it out when the time comes? Who is responsible? So, just don't let the emperor taste it. ”

"You just tell the emperor that this imperial meal is already the best in the world, and there is absolutely nothing beyond it, that's it."

"After all, what can the emperor know in the Forbidden City all day long, if you tell him that this is good, then this is good, tea is like this, imperial food is like this, everything is like this."

Wang Xuan also rolled his eyes when he heard this, this is special, the emperor is indeed enough.

The two chatted for a while, and then Wang Xuan mentioned the main purpose of today, and by the way, he said about Lin Yan's collusion with the Japanese Invaders, "This time the matter of the Seven Great Families still needs Lord Li's help to cover it up." ”

"It's not a big problem, just follow what you said, Lin Yan's two families colluded with the Japanese Kou, it's just that those officials in the field need you to prepare what to do?"

"Lin Yan's two families committed suicide or fled and disappeared in fear of crime, and the other families had accidents......

Governor Li glanced at Wang Xuan deeply, didn't say anything, just sighed in his heart that Wang Xuan was ruthless and ruthless, "There is another problem here." ”

"Your Excellency, please speak."

"How to report the confiscated land and property, after all, to shut everyone up, this kind of thing has to be something to gag everyone's mouth."

"I will definitely keep a large part of the land for other purposes, just report 100,000 mu, and the property lord thinks it is more appropriate for the two families to seize it."

In the end, the two discussed and decided to report the seizure of 1.5 million taels, and the sale of 100,000 mu of land for 500,000 taels, totaling more than 2 million taels of property and some antique paintings and calligraphy, and transport them to the capital together.
