Chapter 241: The Dongying People in Jiangnan (I)
"Recently, more than ten Dongying people have been provoked in the city, fighting with many sailors and Cao Gang, forcibly occupying three shipbuilding workshops, and resisting the government's law enforcement..."
Yu Hangzhi County mentioned very vaguely in the emergency report that he took the county government officials to enforce the law, but was resisted by the Dongying people, which simply means that he lost the battle.
Liu Han didn't understand that he was tolerant enough to the Dongying people, and he didn't pursue them at all, and they still wanted to make trouble.
"These Dongying people will help the thieves!My lord, I am willing to lead troops to Yuhang!" Nan Sheng was furious, and immediately stood up and offered to take troops to Yuhang.
Liu Han didn't say anything, looking at Feng Sheng, Feng Sheng was also at a loss, that's what he knew, and the Yuhang County Order didn't provide more information.
"The Jiangnan Society has been sealed for more than 20 days, why didn't they make trouble at first, but now they are jumping out, why is this? What did Yuhang County make Yao Yuan do?" Liu Han's tone gradually became stern, and Feng Sheng couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
After Liu Han entered Wu County, he raided many families, but he did not touch the officialdom, and none of the officials in more than a dozen counties in Wu County moved.
What the hell is this Yao Yuan doing!
Feng Sheng couldn't help but scold, he gritted his teeth and scolded: "Didn't he already send a document to Yao Yuan, asking him to appease the Dongying people, why did he still make such a fuss! Hmph, if it is found out that it is his responsibility, this official will not spare it!"
Liu Han thought about it, asked people to invite Zhou Se Gu Tong, and then said to Feng Sheng: "Lord Futai, don't be in a hurry, whether to send troops, wait, wait until the matter is clear, you go back first, send a letter to Yao Yuan, don't move for the time being, as long as Dongying people don't hurt people, don't care about him." ”
"No matter?" Feng Sheng was a little surprised, on the way here, he was still wondering if Liu Han would see this urgent report and immediately get on the horse and lead the troops to Yuhang, but he didn't think about it, Liu Han was angry and threw it away.
"No matter what, the so-called no matter what, don't send troops to suppress it, whatever, let Yao Yuan talk to the Dongying people, and ask them why they are making trouble! Tell the Dongying people, my Dajin has a law, and those who violate the law must be prosecuted. ”
Feng Sheng agreed to leave, but Nan Sheng didn't understand: "My lord, these Dongying people are too arrogant, they dare to make trouble in my Dajin, my lord, we can't be too weak." ”
Liu Han shook his head, Nan Sheng naturally didn't know, but he knew in his heart that it was easy to capture or kill these Dongying people, but the future trouble was not small, there was no navy in the Great Jin, only inland naval divisions, once these Dongying people made a mess, fled to the sea, and then used the island as a base to attack the entire southeast coast, and the southeast coast would immediately be in chaos.
He didn't have a clue about it yet, and he had to wait for more detailed information.
"You choose ten people, each with two horses, and prepare to go to Yuhang with me. Liu Han instructed, Nan Sheng was in good spirits and immediately agreed, and Liu Han added: "Don't go, you stay in Wu County and keep an eye on it for me." ”
Nan Sheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and went out without saying anything.
Liu Han still wrote a report to the palace, not a report but a report, and wrote down the process of Wu Jun's actions, except for the money and rewards at the bottom, other things were reported, he didn't know if there were other eyeliners in Wu County in the palace, these things could only be reported truthfully, as for the water master to get money, it seemed to the palace that it was just a trivial matter, even if he knew, it was fine.
In the report, he also explained his strategy for Wu County, including why he spared the Zhou and Gu families, why he set up a department store trading company, and suggested that the imperial court set up a city Yi Division in Yuhang and Ning counties to manage tax collection.
"Commodities bought from overseas should be taxed, and commodities sold from the Great Jin Dynasty should also be taxed, and the private sector should be encouraged to build fleets and carry out overseas transactions, and according to the current annual trading volume, if the tax is 15 taels, there should be more than 100,000 taels of tax per year, and if the transaction is expanded tenfold, the tax can be increased to millions of taels. ”
Liu Han didn't say anything about conquering overseas and expanding the territory, which was not attractive to the emperor in the slightest, but how much tax could be collected to ensure that the emperor was interested.
After the report was written, Liu Han did not seal it immediately, but read it again, and then put it away and put it in the file, this is his habit, every time he gives a report to the palace, he has to check it repeatedly, carefully consider the words, and make sure that there is no flaw.
A question arises in my mind, is the Dongying people's incident accidental or someone behind the scenes, if it is someone who instigates, who will it be?
Thinking of the Fengxiao incident, could it be that someone is really instigating behind the scenes, intending to mess up Wu County?
He had to tie the two things together.
Fengxiao incident, he also reported to the palace in the file, asking the palace to help arrest the ghost bamboo chasing soul and the pink leopard and others, as for the other tea shop owner, no one knows who he is, this person's cultivation is quite deep.
Wei Bao came in to report that Zhou Se and Gu Tong were here, and there were two other Dongying people who came with him.
Liu Han's eyes flashed, and he ordered Zhou Se and Gu Tong to come in first.
Zhou Se and Gu Tong came in first, and when they saw Liu Han, they hurriedly bowed their hands.
"You're here," Liu Han didn't let them sit down, and asked directly, "What do the two Dongying people outside mean?"
"Lord Hui," Zhou Se hurriedly explained, "These two people are here for the matter of Yu Hang. ”
"Yu Hang, hmph, they are making trouble in Yu Hang, and they still have the guts to come here!" Liu said coldly.
"My lord," Zhou Se said slowly, "There is something inside here. ”
"What is the inside story? If you have an inside story, you can go to the official mansion to complain, why are you making trouble in Yuhang?" Liu Han's tone became more and more severe.
"My lord," Zhou Se wanted to explain further, Gu Tong pulled his sleeve, Zhou Se stopped his mouth, and Gu Dong stepped forward: "My lord, since they are here, why don't you call in and ask to see what they have to say, if it is unreasonable, your lord can take them down." ”
Liu Han was slightly contemplative, then nodded: "Since they are here, then call in and listen to their reasons." ”
Two Dongying people came in, Liu Han sat upright, Zhou Se and Gu Tong stood on the side, although there were few people in the hall, but the atmosphere was calm.
"Turning into a wild man, Onomura has seen adults three times. ”
The Dongying people who were kneeling in front of him shouted loudly, his Dajin dialect was good, but he could still hear a slight accent.
"You Dongying people occupy shipbuilding workshops in Yuhang, harass the people, and fight against the government, you still have the courage to come here! I really have no one in Dajin!" Liu stared at the two of them coldly, the Ono was obviously the head, and the one behind him who was carrying a knife, and a little younger was his guard.
"My lord's words, I came to meet my lord, I came to meet my lord, I came to do it for the matter of Yuhang, and I also asked your lord to listen to my words as a wild man. Ono was neither humble nor arrogant, and raised his head and said loudly.
Liu Han nodded: "Okay, you say." ”
"Dongying is the wilderness, we yearn for the Great Jin, so we travel far across the ocean, not afraid of hardships and dangers, nine deaths before coming to the Great Jin, originally to study, but unfortunately, the Great Jin Academy is unwilling to accept us to study, and we have to do some business in order to provide food and clothing.
I can't think that the sky will send disasters, and the imperial court will inspect the Jiangnan Society, what does this have to do with my Dongying people, but the imperial court sailors robbed us of the hard-earned silver, and asked the adults to call the shots for us. ”
After Ono finished speaking, he kowtowed deeply, and the samurai behind him also bowed his head, Liu Han was very surprised: "Nonsense, what the imperial court sailor seized is the thief property hidden overseas in the Jiangnan Society, what does it have to do with you Dongying people!"
"Back to my lord, Jiangnan will hide in Xiaoxi Island, ours is placed on Niujiao Island, the two islands are not far apart, after the imperial court sailors went to the island, they started killing people without saying a word, killing thirty-two of my Dongying samurai, and the Gumi behind me is the survivor of the island. ”
Xiao Ye's expression was resolute, the ghost tail raised his head, his blood-red eyes were round, and he shouted: "My lord, why do we want to kill and loot if we have not violated the laws of the Great Jin!
"Hugh is presumptuous!" Zhou Se scolded sharply.
Liu looked at him coldly, but he believed it a little in his heart, the rabbit cubs of the sailor, when they went out to sea, they felt that the sky was high and the fish jumped, and the sea was wide and no one cared about it.
"Someone!"
Wei Bao came in response, and Liu Han ordered: "Call Man Tong." ”
"My lord!" Wei Bao looked at Ono and Gumi, and hesitated to move.
"Go and call him, don't let people say that I'm a big Jin protector. Liu Han said lightly.
Wei Bao didn't say anything more, turned around and went out, Liu Han looked at Ono and Gumi: "Even if my Great Jin Sailor mistakenly copied your Dongying people, why do you want to make trouble and kill and injure my Great Jin people!"
"My lord," Ono was helpless, and explained: "We are divided into five big islands in Dongying, and the people who come to Dajin are not the same, and those in Yuhang are mainly our people from Changdao and Kashima. ”
Liu Han fully understood, to put it simply, this Dongying people are not a group, they are divided into several groups, the main ones in Yuhang are from Changdao and Kashima, this Ono is the head of Nagashima, and the head of Kashima is a man named Yamada.
After the sailors raided their nests, the Dongying people were divided into two factions, Ono thought that they should find the government to plead their defenses, recover their property, and punish the murderers; Yamada scoffed at this suggestion, thinking that how could the Great Jin people punish their own sailor generals, and that such a large sum of silver, how could the Jin people spit it out, only to fight by force and snatch back the stolen silver.
"This Yamada is not small. Liu Han sneered again and again after hearing this, Ono did not speak, but Gumi looked angry.
Zhou Se looked a little worried, looking at Liu Han and wanting to speak, but Gu Tong glanced at him to reassure him.
"Get up," Liu Han sighed and commanded, Ono got up, but Gumi was still kneeling, and shouted at Liu Han: "My lord, if you can't redress our grievances, Gumi will never get up." ”
Liu Han said lightly: "If you are really wronged, no matter if you can't get up, the official will make the decision for you, otherwise, even if you kneel out of a hole in the ground, the official will not care." ”
"The subordinate is rude, please forgive me. Ono was neither humble nor arrogant, and there was no violation in his words.
Liu Han became interested in him: "How many years have you been in Dajin?"
"Back to my lord, it's been eight years since I turned into a wild man in Dajin," Ono said: "I originally planned to study in Dajin, but I didn't expect that Dajin Academy would not accept us and other outsiders, so we could only go on in Dajin." ”
"Oh, eight years, it's not a short time, there are not a few eight years in life. Liu Han also sighed: "Then why don't you go back?"
Ono sighed deeply, looking sad: "I haven't learned yet, and I'm going home without shame!"
"Jiangnan Shilin still has this rule? All the people outside the Saiwai Hu can enter the Guozijian, why can't they enter the Wujun Academy?" Liu Han was a little puzzled, and asked Zhou Se.
