As Li Mu expected. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Not long after, a captain ran into the courtyard with a happy face and reported to Li Muyu: "My lord, I found the location of the Fan family's silver. ”

"Really?" Li Mu asked in surprise.

"Yes, my lord, as my lord pointed out, the Fan family's silver collection is hidden in the right wall of the main hall, and a large amount of cash silver has just been smashed out of the corner of the lowly rank." The lieutenant reported truthfully.

"Okay, take me to see it." Li Mu waved his hand happily and stepped forward, how to say, this raid can be regarded as a great gain.

When I came to the main hall that I had just left, at this time the right wall had been smashed open, revealing the true face inside, and the Jinyi Guard Lieutenants who were present all stopped.

After Li Mu took a look, he began to smash the entire wall open.

Seeing Li Mu coming, Jinyi Wei Baihu stepped forward and greeted: "My lord..." ”

Li Mu, who was bent on the hidden silver, and the hundred households who had the heart to greet him, took a look at the wall that revealed the silver, and every piece of silver in it was the size of an ordinary brick and stone.

Neatly stacked inside a real wall.

After seeing that it was indeed silver, Li Mubian instructed the hundred households around him: "Smash it, smash the entire wall to this seat, and count the amount of silver hidden inside." ”

"Obedience!"

With Li Mu's order, more than a dozen Jinyi guard captains rounded up the things in their hands and began to destroy the entire wall.

Not to mention that the large number of people is not only powerful, but also very efficient, and in an hour, all the cash will be cleaned out of the wall.

Since each silver brick is marked with a specific mark, soon an hour later, all the silver bricks are packed and sealed after a rough calculation.

After seeing that all the cash silver was sealed, the hundred households of Jinyi Wei did not stop for a moment, and reported to Li Muyu, who was waiting for news in the other garden: "My lord, all the cash silver knots are packed and sealed, and a total of fifteen million taels of silver and 500,000 taels of gold have been found from the wall. ”

Laughing, Li Mu finally laughed heartily when he heard the content of the report of the hundred households.

In this way, together with the cash silver that was searched before, a total of 20 million taels of silver and 600,000 taels of gold were found from the Fan family.

I also had to be shocked by the wealth of the Ming merchants, and sighed at the embarrassment of the Ming court.

Thinking of Zhu Yuanzhang's policy of hiding the wealth from the people, Li Mu wanted to copy all the merchants of the Ming Dynasty to try to see how much wealth he could copy.

After all, it is recorded in history that during the Ming Dynasty, it was the most frequent stage when foreign silver flowed into the Central Plains.

Especially during the Ming Dynasty, almost all the silver flowed to the Ming Dynasty.

Now Li Mu has the urge to smash every wall of the Fan family's old mansion to see if there are treasures such as silver hidden inside.

In the end, I gave up this unrealistic idea, and the Jin Shang Fan family is a family that has been extremely rich for a hundred years, with 20 million taels of silver plus 600,000 taels of gold.

It should already be all the cash storage of the Jin Shang Fan family, after all, the Shang Jia's family is mainly doing business, and it is impossible to dig a pit and bury all the money like this.

And there is an old Chinese saying, antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times.

The Fan family's 10,000 ancient books and more than 10,000 pieces of antique calligraphy and paintings are also a lot of wealth, which must have been obtained by constantly cultivating outside for a hundred years.

Without more than a hundred years, a wealthy family would not be able to collect so many antiquities.

Now everything is owned by Li Mu.

Thinking that in addition to the Fan family, there were seven other Jin merchants in Shanxi who were arrested and raided at the same time, Li Mu's mood became very cheerful.

In order to prevent the other seven Jin merchants from encountering the same situation as the Fan family when they were raiding, so that he would lose a fortune, Li Mu hurriedly instructed the hundred households around him.

"Pass on the order of this seat, and the other seven Jin merchants must be carefully inspected, and no corner must be let go, so as not to happen to the Fan family again."

After speaking, Li Mu thought about it again, afraid that those brocade guards would not know what to do and would damage all the furniture, and then ordered: "Tell them, don't break other things, even if you break a chair, this seat will be severely punished." ”

For Li Mu, those furniture are all money, and he said distressed when he broke it.

"Commanded by humility." Jinyi Wei Baihu bowed respectfully, turned around and was about to go down and order a school captain, hurry up and quickly inform the Jinyi Guards who raided the other seven Jin merchants.

Obey the orders of the commander and do not damage any items.

"That's right." Li Mu stopped the Jinyi Wei Baihu and continued to instruct: "Order, all the silver confiscated will be loaded and transported back to the capital, and the remaining valuables will be temporarily sealed and stacked in the main hall of each team. ”

The silver Li Mu can be transported back to the capital and sent to the palace to fill the inner house, and he will bring other things back to the original plane.

After the order, Li Mu thought of the ordinary Jinyi Wei who was in charge of the raid, he, as the boss, although he was the top boss of the Jinyi Guard, could not eat alone like this.

So he instructed the hundred households who were still obeying the order: "Take out some silver taels from the confiscated cash, regardless of the size of the official position, except for the eagle guards, each person will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver, and remember not to deduct the silver taels of his subordinates." ”

"Humble Commander, Commander Reward!" Hearing that there was an additional reward, Jinyi Wei Baihu was overjoyed, and his face showed joy.

Seeing the hundred households in Jinyi with a happy face, Li Mu couldn't help but splash a basin of cold water and said: "Tell the following, since you have received the reward, put your hands on this seat cleanly, if it is found that someone dares to take the confiscated cash privately, Nanzhen Fusi is very idle." ”

The hundred households of Jinyi Wei, who were full of joy just now, heard that Li Mu was talking about Nanzhen Fusi, who specialized in managing Jinyiwei's law and discipline and military discipline, and the whole person immediately calmed down.

He immediately bowed down and said, "If you don't dare to be of a humble rank, you must obey the orders of the commanding envoy." ”

"Alright." Seeing that the stick was smashed hard enough, Li Mu took a few steps forward and patted the shoulder of this hundred households, and said with relief: "As long as there is this seat, Jinyiwei will have oil and water for you to earn in the future. ”

"Humble for all the brothers of the Jinyi Guard, thank you for your command." Jinyi Wei Baihu felt the strength of Li Mu's palm, and thanked him with great emotion.

"Go ahead." Li Mu waved his hand and ordered the moved Baihu to inform him of the order he had just made.

"Retire from your duties." Jinyi Wei Baihu was so moved that he almost wiped his tears, but fortunately he held back in time.

.....

Looking at the courtyard where there was no one, Li Mu called out the system: "The system records the coordinates." ”

I only heard the cold mechanical voice of the system: "The coordinates are recorded, the cost: 1,000 smuggled coins, the deduction is complete." ”

After recording the coordinates, Li Mu left the courtyard and headed towards the front yard, where there was still a group of criminals waiting for him to deal with.

In the courtyard of the front yard, Li Mu glanced at the old woman who was still sitting on the chair, and was about to step forward to pay attention to it, when he heard the reminder of the hundred households who had just finished the order.

"My lord, the old woman of the Fan family has died of anger."

Hearing that the old woman was dead, Li Mu hurriedly took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand to test his snort, but as Baihu said, the old woman had died of anger.

Retracting his tentative fingers, Li Mu sighed and said, "The deceased is big, prepare a coffin to bury." ”

Li Mu looked at the old woman sitting peacefully in front of him, but sighed, if it wasn't for his intervention, this old man should have been able to live a few more years.

However, even if Li Mu does not exist, when he encounters King Chuang's uprising in the future, such a rich family will not end well.

"Your Excellency is merciful!" Jinyi Wei Baihu patted Li Mu on the back, and then pointed to the other Fan family members and said, "What should I do with these Fan family members?" ”

"Hmm." Li Mu thought for a while, for the dead old people, he would treat the dead as a big deal, but for these living people, he was not so merciful.

Regardless of whether these Fan family ginseng were not involved in Fan Yongdou's affairs, they must be punished in order to punish other Ming merchants and let them know that the Ming Law does not allow them to be so presumptuous.

For the sake of their respective family interests, they unscrupulously betrayed the Ming Dynasty.

For the other clansmen of the Fan family who were outcast, Li Mu could let them go and not go to the real Zhulian Nine Clans.

But these people who live in the old mansion of the Fan family must be punished, at least the wealth that Fan Yongdou brought by selling the interests of the Ming Dynasty, they enjoyed.

"All the criminals living in the old mansion of the Fan family, regardless of men and women, the master of the family is a slave, the man is a slave for eternity, and the woman is a slave for generations, and the other seven families are punished according to this law."

This is really a word, a life and death.

As Li Mu's words fell, the fate of the eight Jin merchants was nailed to the law, and everyone dared to have any rebuttal and overturned the case.

The only way for these eight families to turn around is to wait until the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

However, it is estimated that it is enough, and it is really difficult for the Ming Dynasty to perish with the support of Li Mu.

After the Fan family heard the verdict that decided their fate and came out of Li Mu's mouth, everyone was stunned on the spot.

Seeing the figure of Li Mu leaving, they all stepped forward crying and begging for mercy, unable to accept the reality of this imminent fall.

Fortunately, he was stopped by the captains of the Jinyi Guard, and Li Mu was able to get out of the Fan family's old mansion smoothly.

After turning over on the horse, Li Mu glanced at the plaque of Fan's Mansion on the main gate, listened to the voice of crying and shouting injustice, and muttered to himself.

"Who's to blame? I can only blame your head of the family for being too greedy for profits, disregarding the lives of tens of millions of Han people, and also blaming you for meeting me in this plane, unlike in the history of this plane, still enjoying the glory and wealth of betraying the Ming Dynasty's national system. ”

This sentence seems to be said to the Fan family, and it is also like to say it to the other seven Jin merchants.

Shaking his head and beating the horse, Li Mu left the old mansion of the Fan family and headed towards the mansions of the other seven Jin merchants. (To be continued.) )
