Chapter 310: Eighty Million in One Day! (Ask for full order)
When the hundred officials entered the palace with the Jingyang bell, Hua 12 immediately led the people of Dongchang and Jinyiwei to surround the mansions of the Manchu civil officials in Beijing.
As for why only the house of the civil official, Hua Twelve also has his own considerations, the Ming Dynasty emphasized literature and light military force, and what kind of people's fat and people's ointment are in the hands of civil officials.
So he decided to move the civilian clique first, as for the corrupt generals and nobles, he could slowly figure it out, so as to save any mutiny, although he was not afraid of it, but he also felt troublesome.
Hua Twelve took the factory guards to start a surprise search, he didn't move the eunuch party first, although Cui Chengxiu and others are hateful, but the eunuch party corruption is inevitable, so he first looked for the so-called Qingliu to start, he wanted to see, these guys who flaunt their own morality, are they greedy or not?
In the clear stream, the most annoying should be those so-called speech officials, these people hearsay, heard the wind and played, in the later generations it is a group of keyboard warriors, big trolls, born in this dynasty is also protected by the law, admired by the people, the more people spray, the more they seem to have their own backbone, appear outstanding.
Hua Twelve hehe, he didn't believe that these people usually live on that little money.
Just the ones he hated the most in the Qianqing Palace before, the deputy capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Yu Shi Yang, Chen Eryi, the director of the Ministry of Works, ......Lu Chengyuan, and so on, Hua Twelve planned to use these people to sacrifice the flag first.
In the courtyard of Yang's house, Hua Twelve sat in the flower hall and drank tea, Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi turned Yang's mansion upside down, and Yang's family scrolls were all standing on the side of the flower hall, tremblingly looking at the young man sitting on the main seat drinking tea.
Hua Twelve looked at a large family looking at him with frightened eyes, the corners of his mouth raised, and he said comfortingly:
"You don't have to be afraid, this time it's not a raid, it's just that the important ministers in the court think that Lord Yang is corrupt and bribery, we just help Lord Yang count the family property, so that he can be repaid!"
The eldest son of the Yang family was a young man about the same age as Hua Twelve, and when he heard his words, he saluted:
"My lord, I am wronged, my father is an official and has a clear name, how can he be corrupt and take bribes, please also give my Yang family justice!"
Hua Twelve nodded approvingly: "This is natural, don't worry, this official is the most notarized!" ”
Seeing that Hua Twelve was about the same age as him, and that he was still so good at talking, his nervousness was relieved a lot, so he took two steps forward, took out a silver ticket from his cuff and stuffed it into Hua Twelve's hand, and asked in a low voice:
"Then there is Commander Lao!"
Hua Twelve took it and saw that it was a silver ticket of one thousand taels, and immediately nodded with satisfaction: "It's easy to say!" ”
Yang Gongzi saw that he had received the silver ticket, and he was even more relieved, so he wanted to probe the tone and boldly asked: "My lord, I don't know which important minister in the court said that my father was corrupt and took bribes?" ”
Hua Twelve pointed to himself: "It's this official!" ”
He said and handed the silver ticket to Pei Lun beside him: "Write it down, the eldest son of Yang Shuxiu bribed the official with a thousand taels of silver tickets!" ”
Pei Lun couldn't help but smile and waved to the little school next to him, who took a brush and recorded Hua Twelve's words directly in the book of impermanence.
Yang Dagongzi pointed at Hua Twelve, his lips trembled, and his face was pale and speechless.
Hua Twelve's eyes widened: "Bold, dare to use a yang finger to send out an invisible finger wind to assassinate this official....."
Pei Lun heard Hua Twelve say this, stepped forward and grabbed Yang Dagongzi's fingers, twisted it vigorously, Kacha twisted it into a twist, and the painful Yang Dagongzi screamed, and then he was pressed to the ground and beaten by the two Jinyi captains who flew over, and he couldn't scream.
The reason why these Jinyi guards dared to do it was not because they were arrogant and domineering because of Hua Twelve, but because the bribery of Yang Dagongzi had been recorded in the regular book of Jinyi Weiwu, this is the body of the criminal, even if they are killed, there is something to say.
When everyone in the Yang family saw that Yang Dagongzi was beaten by Jinyi Guard, they immediately cried, but as a result, several factory guards pulled out steel knives, and under the cold and bright edge of the knife body, they didn't dare to speak out for a moment.
Half an hour passed, Zheng Zhangban took the two stalls of the East Factory, as well as Lu Jianxing, a hundred households in brocade clothes, and walked into the flower hall with a heavy face and said:
"My lord, the entire Yang Mansion has been rummaged, and there are only tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver!"
Hua Twelve Chao Pei Lun asked, "How much is Lord Yang an official?" ”
Pei Lun stretched out his hand and took out the official bottom of the Jinyi Guard, looked at it twice, and reported:
"Lord Yang has been an official for 12 years, the first six years are the seventh grade to the matter, the annual salary is forty-five taels of silver, and the next six years of promotion to the deputy capital of the Imperial Court is the official of the third grade, the annual income is one hundred and thirty taels of silver, and the income of twelve years is a total of one thousand and fifty taels of silver!"
Hua Twelve smiled: "The silver money found is more than three times that of its money, right?" ”
Pei Lun said categorically: "It's super, this doesn't count Lord Yang's grange, shops and other industrial ......, it's just ......"
At this time, Pei Lun also showed a somewhat solemn expression, which was the same as Zheng Zhangban, Lu Jianxing and others.
Hua Twelve took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "It's already possible to convict, why do you all have this expression?" ”
Zheng Zhangban's temperament was a little impatient, and Hua Twelve's safety was related to his life and death, so he suddenly said anxiously:
"My lord, this one official's family has only copied out such a little silver, I'm afraid that the entire capital will not be able to make up 80 million taels of silver, and if the amount can't be made up at that time, those officials will definitely impeach your lord for the crime of bullying the king!"
Hua Twelve smiled, he was not worried about this.
In another few decades in history, Li Zicheng's troops came to the city, forcing Emperor Chongzhen to put down his dignity and dignity, and begged the ministers and nobles to donate money so that the soldiers who defended the capital could pay their salaries.
At that time, there was an old man from the common people who heard the news and donated his life savings of 400 taels of silver, but look at how much the officials of the Ming Dynasty donated?
Wei Zaode, the first assistant of the cabinet, only donated 500 taels, the richest man in the eunuch Wang Xin donated 10,000 taels, and other officials cried poor, cheated, and escaped, and even more strangely in order to show that they were really poor, they took their pots and pans to the street to sell.
As a result, Chongzhen only scraped together 200,000 taels of silver from these officials.
But when Chongzhen committed suicide and Li Zicheng entered Beijing, he tortured him and took out more than 70 million taels of silver from the capital.
Of course, this figure varies greatly in different historical sources, some say 80 million taels, some say 50 million taels, but the least says 30 million taels.
This refers to gold, silver and jewelry, not counting the real estate title deed or anything, so it is calculated according to the minimum of 30 million taels of silver, plus the real estate title deed, Hua 12 feels that it is not a problem to get 80 million taels.
Seeing that several of his subordinates looked anxious about themselves, Hua Twelve smiled and said:
"You wait first, this official will come when he goes!"
He found a room where no one was around, and then took out the German-made 3D scanning underground treasure finder that he had spent 50,000 yuan on in the real world.
Hua Twelve bought this thing because he was inspired by watching the videos of those wild treasure hunters, and he felt that this thing was always useful when he bought it.
However, this underground treasure finder is much more professional than the metal detectors used by those wild treasure exploration anchors, the kind of metal detector with a long pole and a ring in front of it, which can also detect one or two meters deep underground and reach the sky.
This 3D scanning underground treasure finder bought by Hua 12 can reach 200 meters underground in depth and 2,500 meters in range.
It can not only detect metal types by category, such as gold, silver, copper, and iron in the ground, but also detect and distinguish jade, diamond, and other gemstones.
In short, this thing is awesome, it is domineering.
Hua 12 knew that rich people in ancient times always liked to bury gold and silver jewelry in the ground, with this 3D scanning underground treasure finder, no matter how deep you buried, there is nothing to hide.
He looked at the manual, studied it, and then personally took the instrument and led a group of factory guards to search around the Yang Mansion again.
Listening to the alarm sound of the instrument, Hua Twelve was full of smiles, and praised again and again:
"If you want to say that Lord Yang is a scholar, this place to hide money is not something that ordinary people can think of!"
He pointed to a pond in the courtyard and shouted, "The gold, silver and jewels are down here, dig them for me!" ”
In fact, there was no need to dig, only the water in the pond was drained and drained, and dozens of large outcrops appeared in the mud.
After opening, there were gold and silver ingots, as well as jewels and jade, agate jade, and the last count, more than 500,000 taels of silver.
Some people in the Yang family know about these hidden silver, all of them are bloodless, with a finished expression, while some of the Yang family members who don't know are puzzled, and then indignant, and then their faces are like ashes, they all know that the Yang family is finished, and they are affected by the Yang family, and they can't get better.
Some unwilling juniors of the Yang family turned against the water on the spot, wanted to make meritorious contributions, and took the initiative to expose Yang's various crimes of violating laws and disciplines, embezzlement and bribery.
Hua Twelve Dynasty smiled with a happy Yin Cheng smile: "Write them down, these people who have made meritorious contributions will also be recorded when the time comes, and the sentence will be reduced as appropriate!" ”
As soon as he said this, it was almost one-sided, even the eldest son of Yang, who had been beaten down before, got up to expose his father.
Hua Twelve left a team of brocade guards to count the remaining belongings, record the confession and Yang's crimes, and he himself rushed to the next house with the others.
This time, he didn't wait for the factory guard to do it, after breaking into the next house, he took the underground treasure finder, quickly walked around the house, determined whether there was hidden silver, and after the location of the hidden silver, he instructed the factory guard to excavate, and then continued to the next one.
Hua 121 ran dozens of civil official mansions during the day, among which as long as he has been an official for more than five years, the worst one has more than 300,000 taels of silver, including fixed assets such as granges, land deeds, and so on, that is more than a million net worth.
From the homes of these civil officials, including gold, silver, jewelry, and fixed assets, Hua Twelve scraped together fifty or sixty million taels of silver.
Fifty or sixty million taels, of which silver tickets account for about 10 million taels, all of which are silver tickets issued by Shanxi ticket numbers.
There are more than 10 million taels of silver, most of which are plucked out of the ground of various houses, and many of them have been cast into gold and silver melons, of course, because the treasure finder measured too deep, and dug out two ancient tombs, all of which were calculated into silver and counted in the total.
The rest of the money is antiques, jewelry, and fixed assets, and these things are converted into silver and fluctuate, so they will say about fifty or sixty million taels.
Hua Twelve took the details of the Jinyi Guard's record, flicked his fingers, brushed it, and said with a smile:
"I don't know what you were worried about before, look at this only one day, most of it will be made up, and it will continue to work at night, make up enough 80 million taels, and finish the work!"
Of course, among the civil officials, there are not no Qing officials, Guo Yunhou, the secretary of the household department, and the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu are magnificent, although there is also a gold and silver industry in the family, but the money comes from very legitimately, even if there is a matter of receiving gifts, it can be called a clean official relatively speaking.
For the family members of such officials, Hua Twelve treated each other politely, and expressed his admiration when he left, but in exchange for the basic superficial harmony, as soon as he left, I don't know how many people spit on him behind his back.
There is an official's family, but it makes Hua Twelve cry and laugh, that is, the family of Yan Peiwei, the capital of the Imperial Procuratorate, is poor, not to mention the four walls of the family, but it is almost the same, and he can't even make up the family property of 1,000 taels of silver.
Hua Twelve was puzzled, and took the treasure finder around his house three times, but he returned empty-handed.
When he got out of Yan Peiwei's house, on the way to the next house, Hua Twelve was reviewing himself, this is a clean official, is it a bit too much to treat Yan Junbin like that.
He was reflecting on himself, so Zhao Jingzhong chased after him and reported to him with a smile:
"My lord, my subordinates have lived up to their trust, and they have knocked out more than two million belongings in Yan Peiwei's house, including 600,000 taels of silver, and the rest are the properties of the Yan family in various places, and I have got everything in the title deed, and now I will send it to your home!"
Hua Twelve's head is black, and the Yan family is not without money, but it is all in my hands.
He didn't expect that the mistake would make Yan Peiwei's family escape, and for the sake of the face of the more than two million property, Hua Twelve decided to forget it, as long as the kid knew each other, he would not blame the past.
In the Taihe Palace, the hundred officials who were brought by Jingyang Zhong Yu became restless after learning the truth, but the palace guards and Dongchang Fanzi guarded the palace gate and allowed them to enter and not leave, and they could not see the emperor, only Wang Tiqian came to pass the decree, saying that after the Jinyi Weihua commanded the envoy to screen the eunuchs, he would let the adults go home.
Originally, these people still wanted to make trouble collectively and force the emperor to show up, but Dongchang Fanzi directly drew his knife, and Yan Minghua commanded the lord to have an order, but anyone who did not respect the holy order, regardless of the rank of the official, was punished according to the conspiracy and killed on the spot.
This move was serious, and suddenly these civil officials of the tiger did not dare to squeak.
Then in less than an hour, someone came to report that in the home of Lord Yang Suoxiu, the deputy capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the gold and silver property was confiscated, totaling 500,000 taels, and the follow-up property was still being counted, and some people from the Yang family reported and exposed a large number of crimes committed by Yang Suoxiu.
After announcing the news, two wolf-like factory guards rushed up directly to get people, and when Yang Suoxiu was dragged out, there was a wet mark on the ground, which was scared to pee.
Next, those civil officials who had impeached Hua 12 in the Qianqing Palace before were dragged away from time to time, because huge amounts of property were found in the family, and then the crime was exposed by the family.
More and more people were dragged away, but the Taihe Hall was strangely quiet, and no one shouted for these people, because everyone knew that the property that was raided from the house could not be faked.
And the rest of the officials are panicked, and they all know that their end is not far away.
In this atmosphere, suddenly a minister knelt down and shouted loudly, to take the initiative to confess his guilt, and then one by one, the courtiers who dared to shout loudly in front of the emperor in the past also broke their hearts, and they knelt down and wept bitterly, begging Wang Tiqian to go and tell the emperor that they wanted to confess their sins and beg for mercy.
