Chapter 371: I Still Have a Way

Tian Ergeng left with excitement.

As a spy leader who is loyal to His Majesty, there is nothing happier than helping His Majesty arrest people.

A team of brocade guards in fresh clothes and angry horses kept going out of the city to their destinations.

The people who saw it sighed one after another, which guys must have been unlucky.

Some well-informed officials guessed more accurately, and Jinyiwei's big move could only be related to Yuan Chonghuan, who was arrested today. Some people focused their eyes on Sun Chengzong's mansion in the capital to see what the former emperor would do after he came out of the palace.

Who knew that early the next morning, Sun Chengzong walked out of the mansion in official clothes and took over Yuan Chonghuan's work.

It was only at this time that everyone understood that Sun Chengzong was not implicated by Yuan Chonghuan, but landed safely.

A few days later, under the order of Zhu Youzhen, the three divisions jointly enforced the law and quickly convicted Yuan Chonghuan.

Corrupt and abusing power.

Raids and exiles. The place is Luzon.

Yuan Chonghuan, who has just been in the limelight for more than half a year, fell into a trough again, and this time, I am afraid there will be no chance to rise again.

Time soon came to Layue, and the entire capital was already extremely cold after two heavy snowfalls in a row.

Zhu Youjian measured it with a thermometer, and the outdoor temperature reached minus 30 degrees.

In such cold weather, the most affected people are naturally the poor people.

Fortunately, Zhu Youzhen had repeatedly ordered Bi Ziyan to make plans as early as possible, and made sweaters from the wool purchased from Mongolia, and used global trade channels to buy cotton overseas and make cotton jackets. It is then sold at a very low price to those people who are in dire need.

In order to prevent traders from rushing to buy and hoard, Zhu Youzhen formulated a series of measures.

Although it is not said to solve the problem fundamentally, it is much better.

There are some questions that don't need to be asked, and Zhu Youzhen knows that they exist. But that doesn't mean he can change all at once. In fact, Zhu Youzhen also knew that no matter how good his original intentions were, he might change his appearance when he left the capital. But some things have to be done, and some people have to be killed. Even if he is an emperor with a plug-in, there is no guarantee that every citizen can survive the cold winter in such bad weather, but to have one more person alive, it will take all the effort.

For this reason, he killed many people and raided many homes. There are businessmen, there are officials.

Fortunately, the two new policies implemented at the beginning of the year not only brought a lot of revenue to the household department, but also made the local government much more financially generous than before. The life of the people, correspondingly, is also a little better. Even if the promotion is not high, as long as you can survive for a long time, what else can you ask for?

The capital is so cold, there is no need to say much about the places outside the gates.

Zhu Kezhen's military operations have all stopped, all units are stationed on the spot, and the grain, grass and other materials needed by the army are uniformly distributed by Shenyang.

Due to the continuous expansion of Anben Iron and Steel Group, Liaoning's railway is the fastest to build and covers the most extensive area. Even in the cold winter, the soldiers did not worry about eating, and the most of them were all kinds of marine fish caught from the sea.

In the midst of cold weather, there is one place that is truly different from the rest, and it can even be said to be incompatible with other places in the cold.

That is Anben Iron and Steel Group, the entire group's plant has not been suspended, it is cold and snowy outside, but the factory is full of energy. The high temperature of the boiler in the factory makes people not feel cold, not to mention that even the dormitory area where the workers' families live is as warm as spring. This is due to one of the strengths of the steel mill: waste heat heating in the steel industry.

The so-called "waste heat heating in the iron and steel industry" is to extract the waste heat of blast furnace slag flushing water and the waste heat of steelmaking continuous casting cooling that cannot be recovered by the steel plant and transport it to the heating pipe network. In this way, every worker in the factory can enjoy this invisible welfare, the wife and children at home have no worries, and the high wages that are never in arrears are never in arrears, and the workers are naturally full of enthusiasm and work hard to produce one by one.

Among them, the most is the track steel used in railways. In addition, some iron ingots supplied to other factories are also in short supply. Around the steel group, there are many workshops of various sizes established by merchants, specializing in the production of various agricultural tools,

Cooking utensils are sold in China if there is no way, and those that have a way are engaged in foreign trade and sold abroad. Impacting the domestic and foreign markets with low prices.

The potential of the Anben Iron and Steel Group is huge, but its leader, Fang Zhenghua, is extremely perverted.

Although it is only for the Jurchen slaves who were captured, it also makes everyone talk about it.

People died every day in the iron and coal mines, and more and more Jurchens were captured, and the scale of mining became larger and larger, and the output of the Saddle steel group became higher and higher. It can be said to be a virtuous circle, but it suffers these Jurchen slaves who can't get paid.

For this reason, Zhu Youzhen also specially reprimanded Fang Zhenghua, asking him to treat the prisoners well, ensure their personal safety, reduce casualties, and pay attention to sustainable development.

But Fang Zhenghua still went his own way, which made Zhu Youzhen complain in front of several auxiliary ministers in the cabinet, saying that Fang Zhenghua was disrespectful to resist the decree. If it weren't for the fact that no one would have resisted the current steel group, he would have been taken down a long time ago.

After hearing this, several people persuaded him to calm his anger and intercede for Fang Zhenghua, but Zhu Youzhen had to change his decision and once again issued an order to denounce Fang Zhenghua's cruel behavior.

Compared with the severe cold in the north, the weather in the south is much better, and Yunnan, which belongs to the monsoon climate of the subtropical plateau, is not to mention cold.

But in Ami Prefecture, Sha Yuan, Pu Mingsheng and others are getting together with sad faces.

"Lao Sha, this Qin Liangyu doesn't plan to leave, what should I do?" Pu Mingsheng said with a sigh.

"How long will our food last?"

"More than a month."

"So you can survive until the Chinese New Year?"

"Yes, but after the New Year, we have to hurry up and find a way. No, we have to figure it out now!"

"What can you do? What can be done? Either beat Qin Liangyu back, or escape."

"Lao Sha, you speak lightly, this is not your territory, you don't care. It is impossible to defeat Qin Liangyu, but let's not talk about whether we can escape or not, even if we can escape, where can we escape? Go to the Wangnong Shan Division?"

"It's not impossible." Sha Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said with some indifference.

"You! Alas~"

"Haha, Pu. You don't have to worry too much, it's been a few months, and she Qin Liangyu hasn't come in? Don't the so-called invincible white pole soldiers have to rest in this mountain? They just want to trap us here and make us surrender without a fight. With less than a month left before the Chinese New Year, let's see if they will retreat. If you retreat, the natural crisis will be resolved, but the possibility is very small. If I don't retreat, I still have a way to go."

"Where?"

"Don't divulge it!"
