Chapter Ninety-Six: The Inner Treasury Strikes
The sound is very crisp, not like the muffled sound of the staff of the Kyoto Imperial Palace falling on the imperial historians of the Imperial Palace, but like someone beating a rhythmic music.
The beat only fell ten times before it ended, and the three workshop directors finally did not have air in and out like Brother Baoyu, nor did they faint like Fan Laoer.
Fan Xian looked at the scene with great interest, and couldn't help but be a little surprised by the hardness of these three principals, who were beaten ten boards, but he didn't even snort, he was a person who knew the style of his subordinates, since he shouted and beaten, no one dared to spare his strength.
The three principals were lying on the bench, their clothes were lifted up, their pants were also faded off, and their buttocks and backs were full of red marks, looking miserable, but they were too humiliated today, in front of Fan Xian, they didn't make a sound of begging for mercy, but the board always hurts when it falls on the body, especially in addition to the pain, there is a trace of humiliation of being stripped of clothes, so that these middle-aged men began to have tears in their eyes, watery, and hateful, like poor puppies.
Fan Xian clapped his hands and said, "Fork out." β
"Yes. The subordinates responded in unison, and then picked up the three principals and walked outside the yamen.
Behind these three principals, who had already been humiliated, Fan Xian did not forget to shout like a businessman: "Three days, three days, don't forget!"
......
......
The yamen suddenly fell silent, and the officials looked at Fan Xian with a little more fear, everyone in the world knew Fan Xian's reputation, but he was not from Kyoto. These officials have not personally experienced the cold taste contained in Fan Xiandi's name, and the pain of the second prince's civil official is not as clear.
But today everyone finally watched, and in addition to being secretly afraid, they couldn't help but have a little more secret sneering. It's not for us officials, it's just that no matter how knowledgeable you are Lord Fan, you are still blind to the affairs of Necuri, and you have offended the main affairs of these three major squares, and it will be up to you to see how you end up in the future.
Fan Xian may not know that these officials under him have the intention of watching the excitement in three days, or maybe he doesn't care about this at all, so he said a few words casually, and ordered everyone to fill back the arrears within three days.
He left behind the general from the Ye family. There is also his own close assistant, the deputy envoy of the Transit Division. To do that three days later, he still needs the help of these two men in many ways.
I don't know what he said to these two officials in the back garden, but I saw that the faces of the two became more and more heavy, and finally nodded slowly, bowed respectfully to Fan Xian, and withdrew.
......
......
"Your Excellency. Su Wenmao handed over the intelligence summary handed over by the Supervision Institute, Fan Xian took it easily, and nodded slightly while looking at it, it seems that the people around are still of some use. It's just that over the years, I have been pressed up and down by the eldest princess and the treasurer, and I haven't had a chance to show my skills.
Su Wenmao watched him immersed in the dossier, thinking of the previous scene, and couldn't help frowning. Mustard up the courage and whispered: "The main thing of the three major squares can be killed." β
Fan Xian glanced up at him and couldn't help laughing: "Of course you can kill, but killing is not cooking, you can eat as much as you eat, and you don't need to kill in a hurry." β
"Your Excellency was too gentle before. "Su Wenmao came from the Supervision Yuan, and he has always been ruthless in the governance of officials, and he really felt too merciful for Fan Xian's previous treatment, and he was only three principals. Kill and kill, since Liwei wants to strike a thunderbolt, how can there be a reason to say that it is only ten boards for a long time.
He said angrily: "My lord only hit them ten boards before, which is too light. I'm afraid that these people will be unconvinced. β
Fan Xian waved the intelligence summary of the Supervision Yuan in his hand, and said calmly: "According to the evidence in your hand." I cut off those three heads with a single sword, and no one dared to say anything. β
Su Wenmao was stunned, thinking that since this was the case, why did he let go of those three guys who had no king's law before, so why did he let go of those three guys who had no king's law?
Fan Xian explained with a smile: "Thunder, rain and dew, all ...... Shangen. If I had dealt with it ruthlessly before, although the officials and the treasurers, large and small, would have been dissatisfied, and even jealous out of fear, they would have only responded, and they would have been honestly due to the sharp edge of the head-killing knife, and the three-day deadline would have been...... I'm afraid that in less than a day, the officials will make up the shortfall, and those treasurers will be crazy to send money to and from the office. β
"It's not ...... Do you want to see the situation?" Su Wenmao became more and more puzzled.
Fan Xian waved his hand: "Wrong, if you suppress it for a while, and only kill the main affairs of the three major fangs, what fundamental changes can there be for Neku? Just like hunting monkeys on the mountain, if you want to kill the monkey king, those monkeys will scatter." You know, I can't, and I don't want to stay here for a long time, and what if we're gone? The monkeys will come out of the mountains to steal our corn to eat. β
Su Wenmao's heart moved, and he understood something, the monkey mentioned in the metaphor of Lord Tisi is naturally the number of treasurers of the three major squares, if the main affairs of the three major squares are cut today, those treasurers will naturally honestly spit back the silver taels and pay back the wages owed to the workers, but in that case, Lord Tisi will lack the opportunity to make a butcher's knife again, and when Lord Tisi leaves northern Fujian and returns to Hangzhou, Shannan Road is far away, those treasurers are only afraid that they will be active again, and the workers in the three major squares are only afraid of facing more tragic revengeγ
"It's squeezing pus. Fan Xian smiled and said: "You look at the face seems to be flat, in fact, the pus is still in it, so let's not rush to scrub first, but to open the pores and squeeze out all the pus." β
Su Wenmao was stunned, obviously he hadn't taken a beauty class, but he understood what Fan Xian meant, and said with a smile: "What adults say is complicated, isn't it just to lure the snake out of the hole?"
This is called beating the snake and startling the snake. Fan Xian touched his smooth hair, and found that his description didn't seem to be very appropriate, so he couldn't help but smile: "Anyway, it's three days." The humiliation of the three squares and ten boards, thinking about those arrogant and indulgent treasurers, they will not bear it no matter what. β
"What if...... Someone has made up the silver back, what should I do?" Su Wenmao asked suspiciously, a little worried that after Lord Tisi's reputation was shaken, those little monkeys would not have the courage to jump out.
"Punish the former and the latter, cure the sick and save the people. Fan Xian said very seriously: "I didn't offend the treasurer of Qingluli. As long as the silver is returned cleanly, I will naturally give him a chance to be a new man, I am here to manage the inner treasury, not to break the inner treasury. β
"Understood. β
"As for the enemy, we must divide it, sort it out, treat it separately, and unite all who can be united...... Look at who jumped out three days later, and you can know who is rejecting the good intentions of the officials. Fan Xian smiled and said, "It's not just for the treasurers, presumably the eldest princess's cronies who stayed in the inner library." I won't let go of such a great opportunity, in Xinyang's opinion, if I offend the treasurers, the inner library will naturally be paralyzed, at this time, they will definitely jump out, you let the people around keep an eye on it for the past two days, and finally draw up a list, these unstable factors, I will invite them away one by one. β
Su Wenmao finally got a complete understanding. Lord Tisi had to do a very thorough cleaning work, and went to the previous conversation in the garden, and said in a small way: "It's just ...... My lord, the deputy envoy is a member of the people of the Anna tribe. It can be trusted, but the Ye family?"
Fan Xian knew what he was worried about, according to the news from Kyoto, a few days after the eldest prince and the eldest princess of Northern Qi got married, Ye Ling'er finally married the second prince, and the second prince also took this opportunity to be released from the house arrest mansion by the queen mother.
"Don't worry about anything. I didn't say much, I just asked that Ye Shen general to pay attention to the route out of the reservoir recently, and I would not be arrogant enough to subdue the people of the Ye family in a few words. β
Fan Xian laughed, what he asked Ye Shen to do was actually just to prevent the treasurers from taking advantage of the location. Secretly shipped out the silver that had been swallowed over the years, although most of the stolen silver must have been used to buy land. But the title deed ...... The treasurers' temperament dictated that they could only keep it in their own homes.
"And don't casually associate the Ye family with the second prince and the eldest princess. Fan Xian thought for a while and said: "The two Ye Qin families are known in the world, it is not as simple as ordinary people imagine, how can it be possible to unilaterally fall to a prince, it is too stupid." Even if there is a tendency, before the situation is clear, he will always sell me some face, and turn his face with me for a group of treasurers, unless Ye Chong really thinks that His Majesty did not send him farther. β
Su Wenmao was stunned, didn't say anything more, and took the order.
Fan Xian sat on the chair and fell into silence, and only sighed after a while, Ye Ling'er is married after all, what will happen to the second prince in the future? He is not a benevolent person, but in the tea shop outside the Baoyue Building, he also once said that the reason why he wanted to knock the second prince into the dust was to leave him alive, on the one hand, because of Ye Ling'er's relationship, on the other hand, he just subconsciously wanted to compete with His Majesty the Emperor who paid attention to iron-blooded child-rearing, see if you can play, or I will play!
In the past few months, the Ye family has been played by the emperor, and in no way, he has to get closer and closer to the second prince, thinking of this, Fan Xian is belly is full of yin fire, His Majesty the Emperor's foresight may be true, but as the emperor's suspicious bastard is even more true - it seems that people sitting in different positions have their own limitations, and the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, his limitation is that he is too suspicious, and he is tempted to give marriage first, and his unreasonable precautions gradually rise, and he is very shameless in framing the back, and he has forced the Ye family to the opposite side of the prince!
Prince: Why did the third child follow him out of Beijing?
Emperor...... It's really not porridge, try to make some means that people can't see the purpose of the eyebrows. Fan Xian was a little distressed, and immediately comforted himself, his little bastard couldn't figure it out, maybe the old bastard was also messing up the battle, and he didn't necessarily understand.
As for why Fan Xian is extremely resolute in refusing to reconcile with his mother-in-law, it is not that he has suffered from many young sons-in-law in the process of falling in love, and it is not just the reason why he said to Haitang that he is "optimistic about the family business", the most practical reason is: If Fan Xian and the eldest princess really join forces, the strength of the two sides will be so strong that it will be very terrifying, and it will be enough to shake the base of Qingguogen.
And this is definitely something that Emperor Qingguo cannot allow.
And for Fan Xian, who does not have the power of the world, the current policy of dealing with the world is only one that is extremely wise and foolish: everything that the emperor Lao Tzu does not allow. Never do it yourself, unless someone wants to kill you.
βββββββββββββββββββββββββ
In the next two days, Fan Xian, the master of the Qincha who had just arrived in the inner library, took his own personal seven rings and looked around the workshop with flowers and branches, and gradually became familiar with the process of the inner library, and added a touch of emotional understanding to the momentum of the Ye family back then. It is inevitable that you will sigh at the waterwheel next to the river, not full of vicissitudes, and occasionally sit and talk with the workers in the workshop and blow glass
way, it's just a pity that his craftsmanship is too poor, his face is too beautiful, and he can't blow it successfully, but the texture of the glass is undoubtedly revealed.
After two days of shaking like this, most of the workshops closer to the official office knew what the new adult looked like, for the legendary little Fan. Although they didn't dare to force their eyes, they also peeked at a lot of eyes carelessly, and they all said that this noble son was really good-looking, but he was clumsy and clumsy, and he was also kind to people.
On the other hand, the four inner lines of defense formed by the military and the Supervision Yuan suddenly stepped up inspections. The inspection of the inner library is the most rigorous place in the world, and it suddenly intensified, and suddenly found some prohibited things, although it is not the technical secret of the inner library. But it's also something heavy.
It's a light piece of paper, but it's a heavy title deed.
As Fan Xian expected, the first reaction of the treasurers and relevant officials in the mainland, including the three major owners, after the three-day order was issued, was to find a way to transport the most valuable things around them and hand them over to relatives and friends outside the inner treasury.
But after a close search, the officials and treasurers finally despaired, knowing that the new Chincha would not allow his people to transfer their property, and that the paper property would remain with them...... Oh my. If you don't make up the deficit after three days, won't you be robbed of your home? And where will these people's bodies be clean, if Lord Qincha wants to find out his mistakes, it will be a dead word left and right!
The work of Shan Da and General Lin has obviously paid off, starting the next day. No one tried to transfer the family property anymore, and there was a yin wind. It began to blow between the various mansions of the inner library and the three major squares, and as for who the source of the blowing was, there were naturally spilled nails quietly inquiring.
It was a night when heavy rain fell in Fujian, and the river swelled, although there was no problem due to the fact that the embankment was real, but the atmosphere of the yin wind roaring and the turbid waves emptying the ground had begun to make many people feel strange.
Feeling the strong danger, the treasurers began to connect, upper, middle and lower, a total of more than 200 treasurers, in the face of the "three-day order" have their own plans, some people with a surviving conscience, ready to return the stolen silver, new people, some afraid of Fan Xian's power, began to secretly prepare to report the illegal affairs of colleagues, for their own innocence, and more people, began to gather in the three major landlords' mansions, whispering how to deal with this matter.
After the three principals of the three major records were beaten to the board, they could only lie on the bed, although they were in three places, but the hatred of Fan Xian in their hearts and the resentment in their eyes were quite emotional, in short, they were unwilling to bow to Fan Xian, because they had done too many bad things, even if they bowed their heads, they were afraid that they would not be able to escape death in the future.
In the connection of these treasurers, Xinyang's henchmen who remained in the treasurer also played a very bad role, and in the name of Her Royal Highness the princess who was far away in Kyoto, he assured the treasurers that the first concern of the imperial court was still the production and profit of the inner treasury, not these small pieces of silver that you were greedy for.
What about one chopstick? What about ten chopsticks? In short, most of the treasurers finally hugged tightly and began to smash Fan Qincha, who seemed to know nothing but the United States, like a bowling ball.
......
......
On the last day of the three-day order, Fan Xian followed the rules of the previous two days, and stayed in the official office in the morning, although the treasurers have not taken the initiative to confess their guilt in the past two days, but many of the officials have returned some silver.
There are also some treasurers who secretly confess their guilt and take the initiative to climb to the Supervision Yuan to be tainted witnesses, Fan Xian naturally laughed and accepted it, it seems that the other party is really not a whole iron plate, and the casting process of the inner library is indeed not up to par.
He drank tea. Looking at the drizzle outside the hall, I thought about the heavy rain last night, and Qingguo will not be flooded again this year, right? It seems that we have to hurry up for some time, otherwise I am afraid that the silver that my father asked for will not have time to be transported to the banks of the river, and the embankment will collapse again.
"Your Excellency!"
A panicked voice exploded like a muffled thunderbolt, waking Fan Xian up from the thoughts of a saint.
Fan Xian wondered. I saw a bunch of officials in wet official uniforms running in, these officials were all people who went to various squares to publicize the deadline of the three-day order today, why did they all run back?
The leader was the No. 2 person in the inner library, Ma Kai, the deputy envoy of the transfer department, who was shocked, pulled his placket, and broke in in a panic despite the wet shoes of the sewage on the ground.
"Master Ma, why are you so flustered?" Fan Xian looked at the other party and frowned slightly. Enough of Cao Cao's genealogy.
"My lord, it's not good!" Although Ma Kai knew that the treasurers would definitely rebound against the three-day order, he couldn't help but panic when he heard about it today, and hurriedly came to report it to Fan Xian.
"Three squares...... Strike!"
......
......
Fan Xian was slightly stunned and stood on the stone steps in a daze.
Ma Kai thought that Lord Qincha was also shocked by the sudden bad news, wiped the rain on his face, and said with a wry smile: "This is good, this is good." β
This is something that has never happened since Qingguo collected and transported the inner library! In fact, Fan Xian did not kill anyone, and the means he used were not as bloody as the eldest princess back then. But the problem is that Fan Xian issued a three-day order, and he had a secret spy power that the eldest princess did not have, and then blocked the treasurer's plot to transfer the family property. If they are really ready to swallow the money that the treasurers have withheld over the years.
What is silver money? Silver money is the life of the vast majority of the world, so the treasurers dare to use such an earth-shattering act as a strike to fight Fan Xian!
Fan Xian was only slightly stunned, and immediately woke up, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, in fact, he was surprised not that the treasurers reacted violently, he just thought, it turns out that there is also a labor tide in this world......
"My lord, what should I do, or take back the three-day order first?" Ma Kai said with a look of anticipation. He very much disagrees with Fan Xian's three-day order, and now the treasurers are really on strike, and the three major squares of the inner treasury will stop working for one day, how much silver will the court lose? Who can bear such a big sin? Even if your Fan Xian's family background is different from ordinary people. I'm not afraid of the world's opinions, but ...... Your Majesty will not spare you lightly!
It was unexpected by Ma Kai and the officials. Fan Xian stroked the smooth hair on his head, moved his neck, and showed a faint excitement on his face: "Sure enough, I didn't disappoint this official, and I made a big move...... That's fine, wait for the official to catch up and kill them...... Clean, clean!"
"Huh?"
The officials stood stupidly in the drizzle, and a pair of swallows flew gently on the wooden beam of the yamen.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
In the rain, Fan Xian wore a black lotus coat of the Supervision Yuan, led the officials of the transfer department, a total of more than 20 people, and hurried to the outside of a large square in the first place to shout a strike. The officials stood outside the workshop, and found that they couldn't hear the sound of the stove, and there was no black smoke coming out of the workshop, and there was a deathly silence.
No one knew that the Qi Nian group and the six swordsmen who followed Fan Xian to Jiangnan were already wearing raincoats and silently came to a place not far from Dafang to wait for orders.
In the distance, General Ye Shen had a calm face, clenched his fists, and spoke to Su Wenmao beside him with anxiety, but his mind was all in the big square of today's strike, and behind the two, a battalion of officers and soldiers with knives and guns in hand were waiting.
The striking people of the first workshop are gathered in this large workshop, which still has the residual heat from last night, and this is the place where the glass is refined.
Fan Xian walked into the workshop at a steady pace, looked up at the high top of the workshop, and said in admiration: "The rain prevention is good." β
The workers shrank in twos and threes, their faces full of horror, these lower-level workers naturally didn't know why they suddenly stopped work today, and looked at the newly arrived Lord Qincha, and their hearts were terrified.
In front of the workshop, more than a dozen treasurers in cyan shirts forcibly bowed to Fan Xian.
"Why hasn't work started?"
"It's good to teach adults to know. Behind him, there was also an injured Di Jia Fang Xiao, and he glanced at Fan Xian with resentful eyes, "Last night, the rain was too heavy, and the furnace was extinguished and the mold was washed, so there is no way to start work." β
The chief and the treasurer are not stupid, of course they know that they can't say the strike openly, otherwise if Fan Xian really goes crazy and kills all of his people with a knife, he can only find some reasons, but in fact, he still threatens the other party with a strike.
This may be the so-called art of negotiation.
In terms of poetry, Fan Xian can be said to be an artist, but his own work is often destroying art without aesthetics, he said with a calm face: "The mold is ruined, the furnace is wet, what about Yifang? Is it possible that the molten steel that scalds people to death also condenses?
Without waiting for that Master Xiao to reply, he narrowed his eyes and said, "I think you treasurers are really rusty in your brains!"
There is no so-called negotiation at all, Fan Xian just needs someone to make trouble, and the replacement of the technical director of the inner library is imperative, how can he be willing to miss this opportunity.
"Come on, cut off the head of this Master Xiao for me, and use his blood to warm the stove. Fan Xian clapped his palms and said in harmony.
That Master Xiao was stunned for a moment, and didn't seem to understand what Lord Qincha meant.
As soon as Fan Xian's words fell, the officials of the Supervision Yuan wearing raincoats had already walked into the workshop, a subordinate lifted a chair for Fan Xian to sit down, and several others had cleanly kicked Director Xiao to the ground and pulled him to the stove about five zhang away from Fan Xian.
Fan Xian waved his hand.
The officials of the operation department behind him were in an uproar, and Deputy Envoy Ma Kai was in a hurry, and shouted in a panic: "My lord, I can't do it!"
And Master Xiao, who was pushed to the mouth of the furnace, finally woke up at this time, knowing that Lord Qincha really wanted to kill himself...... He began to struggle desperately, his feet rustling on the floating earth on the ground, and shouting with a crying voice: "Spare your life, your lord!"
There are many fools in the world, who can't see through the state of the world, and when they want to die, they beg for mercy, and it is inevitably too late.
The treasurers who had been friends with Chief Xiao were wide-eyed, and they rushed forward one after another, wanting to save Master Xiao.
With a bang, a snow-white knife light flashed!
A swarthy skull, bone-hugged, rolled into the furnace, blood spurting out and striking against the furnace wall.
Countless screams erupted in the big square, and everyone was shocked by the bloody scene in front of them, and the little treasurers howled in pain and frightened, and at the same time restrained their steps in the lightning, and the instinct to survive finally defeated the frenzy in their hearts at this moment.
Fan Xian glanced at the corpse at the mouth of the furnace, and then looked at the hundreds of workers gathered together behind the workshop with frightened faces, and said calmly: "This official killed someone, so naturally there is a reason for killing people. β
