For three days in a row, countless people came to the General Inspection Office, and almost all the officials, families, gangs, and businessmen in Yangzhou City came to the door.

What he said is nothing more than the thousands of businessmen and some troublemakers who disrupted the market because they disrespected the government's orders and wantonly raised prices.

This matter, the people of the General Inspection Office have already made a decision, close it for a few days, and then hand it over to Hongwu to deal with, not let them break their muscles and bones, but also to remove their skin.

As for the people who tried to find Hua Yu and walked through the back door, he didn't even see Hua Yu's shadow for three days.

Early in the morning of the fourth day, above the public court of the General Inspector's Office, Hong Wu sat in an official robe, and a sign was erected in front of the case: ransom depository.

Outside the hall were lined up with people carrying or carrying boxes.

Hong Wu's face was gloomy, he patted the shocked wood, and said to the left and right:

"Start calling people, and those who don't answer will be put last!"

"Yes!"

Picking up a thick book from the left and right, turning it from the first page, he shouted:

"Wang Renxue!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone jumped up and replied:

"Here, here!"

A butler-like man trotted into the hall with two men carrying a large box, bent down and said with a smile:

"My lord Mingjian, Wang Renxue is my son-in-law. ”

Hong Wu snorted and nodded slightly to the left and right.

When he was given the order left and right, he said to the steward:

"Can you bring the ransom of 10,000 taels of silver?"

"Brought, brought. ”

As he spoke, he hurriedly instructed the two subordinates to put the box on the ground and open it.

The bright golden light shone brightly, and the patrol guards in the public hall couldn't help but light up their eyes, and a trace of greed flashed in someone's eyes, and they were immediately deflated.

All the money and property collected are all recorded, and they must be handed over to Shi Xu Ziling, the inspection and supervision order, if they want, they can only take credit in exchange.

After the inventory was completed by the patrol guard in charge of the inventory, Hong Wu waved his hand.

"Seal!"

Then a patrol guard took a vermilion seal and sealed the box full of gold ingots.

Hong Wu picked up the print, put it on a release order, and the patrol guard waiting beside him took it, and said to the housekeeper:

"Go, follow me to get someone. ”

"Yes, thank you, sir!"

The people in line are like this, and now the General Inspectorate has completely established its own majesty, and the idle forces no longer dare to make a mistake, whether they want to or not, they obediently send the ransom to the General Inspectorate.

There are also those who have no support, but they are arrested for inciting trouble, and no one comes to redeem them, so they can only stay in the prison until the end of their term before they can be released.

However, according to the rules set by the General Inspectorate, their crimes will also be sentenced to at least three years in prison.

After three years in prison, when I was released from prison, I was afraid that I would already be wrong.

All those who had some possessions or some background were ransomed, and at the end of the day, the number of ransomes was 4,762, not including those who had committed serious crimes, and those who were not eligible to be ransomed.

In the end, a ransom of 2,180,000 taels of gold was collected.

When he saw this statistic, Hong Wu couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that he didn't have so much money from running the Hong family for decades.

Although I had expected it from the bottom of my heart, when I actually saw the chests full of gold and silver filling several houses, the visual shock still shocked my heart.

The number of patrol guards in charge of guarding has doubled, and the eager and slightly greedy eyes have become a little numb under the constant stimulation, and they can almost reach the realm of treating money like dung.

With such a big harvest, Hua Yu, the lord of the mansion, has also become arrogant.

"Everyone has worked hard these days, Ziling, you propose a part of it to reward everyone, and you set your own specific standards. ”

After a big move, it was finally time to reward meritorious deeds, Hua Yu said not only to Xu Ziling, but also to the other deputy general inspectors present.

When the real money arrived, the spirit of the people in the chief inspection office immediately changed, and even the patrol guards patrolling the street became extremely high-chested, and the cohesion of the invisible was greatly improved.

These are all worried about by Hongwu and other deputy chief inspectors, but Hua Yu, the lord of the mansion, has been alarmed by a news and personally went to the section of the canal where the engineering team outside the mountain is located.

This section of the canal has been built, and both sides of the canal have even been pressed into a flat ground according to the requirements of the flower rain, planted with green weeping willows, dancing with the wind.

However, looking at the more than a dozen white, swollen and rotting corpses soaked in water in this place, the look on Hua Yu's face was extremely cold.

Two patrol guards who had finished examining the corpse stepped forward and said:

"Mansion Master, there are seventeen dead bodies, and their faces are no longer recognizable, judging by the degree of decomposition of their bodies, these people should have been dead for more than ten days. ”

"Hmm," looking at this corpse with short sweatshirts and coarse rags, Hua Yu couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.

This world has never been the world with human rights in the previous life, and in the eyes of many upper-class people, these ordinary people at the bottom are like mustards.

Here, it was always a primitive feudal dynastic society.

Although he is already one of the upper echelons now, he still feels like something hurts.

The saints are unkind, and they use the people as dogs.

Such a thing, Hua Yu asked herself if she couldn't do it, the people were ignorant, how innocent were the people?

Yu Yu sighed and asked:

"Can it cause a plague?"

One of the inspectors, who examined the body, replied:

"Back to the Lord, due to the hot and humid weather, and the fact that these corpses have been exposed for a long time, there is a high possibility of causing a plague. ”

"Then cremate and bury it on the spot, and send someone up the river to find out what is going on. ”

"Yes!" replied one of the patrol captains who followed.

"Zhou Tong. ”

"The subordinates are here!"

Zhou Tong, who had been standing aside, immediately stepped forward to answer.

"Is the engineering team outside the mountain still stable?"

"Back to the owner, after the last incident, the subordinates and the rest of the responsible persons reformulated the rules of the engineering team, and now they are working together and are very stable. ”

"Well, yes, the potential of the engineering team outside the mountain is far more than that, you have to manage it well, don't slack off, and don't neglect your cultivation. ”

Zhou Tong heard the kindness and care in Hua Yu's words, his heart was hot, and he couldn't help but be moved:

"The owner of the village can rest assured that even if his subordinates die, they will never let the owner down again. ”

Flower Rain Road:

"Well, I remember your words. In addition, to what extent is the construction of the canal section in Jianghua Prefecture carried out?"

"It has been almost completed, and all the substandard river lifts have been rebuilt according to the owner's requirements, and now the off-mountain engineering team is carrying out all the ground trimming and planting trees on both sides of the river.

"Speed up and try to finish all the finishing work within five days, and then the engineering team will have a lot of tasks. ”

Zhou Tong's eyes lit up when he heard this, he was not afraid of many tasks, he was afraid that there would be no tasks, the heavier the task, the heavier his weight beside Hua Yu, the owner of the village, would be, and he immediately replied:

"Although the owner of the village arranges, the engineering team outside the mountain is on standby at any time!"

Hua Yu nodded and said no more.

The task he said was only afraid that Zhou Tong would be worried when it really started.

However, looking at the seventeen corpses that were about to be cremated, Hua Yu's heart became firm, the construction of the canal had begun to cause so many lives, and the real situation must be even more cruel than this.

In addition, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was mobilizing grain, grass and military strength throughout the country to prepare for the second expedition to Goryeo.

The chaos in the world has been revealed, and time is running out.

Back at the General Inspector's Office, Hua Yu recruited Su Wan and asked her to draw up an invitation letter.

This invitation letter will be sent to the five giants of Jianghua Prefecture, the Assassin Mansion and the Yangzhou City Lord's Mansion, inviting them to come and discuss the construction of roads in Jianghua Prefecture.

As for the fact that this matter originally belonged to the political duties of the Assassin Mansion, Hua Yu would not care, and in the current Jianghua Prefecture Government, the General Inspection Office has the final say.

Moreover, the construction of the road is beneficial to the state and the people, does not harm the interests of the government, and it also adds political achievements to the people who assassinate the history and the government, even if they are dissatisfied, they will not do stupid things that harm others and themselves.

If it weren't for the fear that some people in the court behind them would take advantage of this attack, they wouldn't even have a chance to participate.

On the third day, the Jianghua Prefecture Assassin Prefecture issued a decree: in order to facilitate the life of the people of Jianghua Prefecture and promote the transportation in the state, the Prefecture Assassin Prefecture and the General Inspection Office and the Yangzhou City Lord's Mansion jointly discussed and decided to rebuild the official roads of the 47 counties of the nine counties of Jianghua Prefecture.
